Chapter 1196: Zhang Jun speaks recklessly, making Zhao Shen happy
After so many years, it was not easy for a minister to gain face for the Song Dynasty, but he was forced to leave and became the commander-in-chief of the enemy. Who could do such a thing?
Although, in the history of China, this kind of thing has never been uncommon, but does Zhao Shen seem so brainless?
"Your Majesty, the existence of Shen Tang has blocked the interests of too many people! Therefore, there will naturally be many people who want to bring Shen Tang to his death!"
Zhang Jun said calmly, "For these people, the biggest benefit is that Shen Tang cannot return. As for whether it is beneficial to the country, does Your Majesty think these people will consider it?"
"Although Shen Tang does act recklessly sometimes, according to my experience, none of these people can match Shen Tang's loyalty to His Majesty and the imperial court!"
"If he has any objections in his heart, he will give up all his official positions directly. Moreover, Your Majesty also knows that all the soldiers and horses under Yuan Shen Tang's command are still guarding each place without any change!"
"The reason why Shen Tang has prestige among these people is that Shen Tang can lead them to victory, and the second reason is that Shen Tang is loyal to His Majesty!"
"Then Bian Xi, your Majesty should know it! He was originally the commander-in-chief of the Zaoyang Army, and led his army to station at the border of Suizhou for many years! He first made meritorious service in the battle of Tongbai Mountain and was picked up by your Majesty, and then followed the veteran minister and made several meritorious service in the battle of Sizhou. Until later, he was sent to Chengdu Mansion by His Majesty."
"Although Xin Qiji was born in the north, he cared about His Majesty and the Song Dynasty. He traveled thousands of miles to Lin'an to ask for His Majesty's orders!"
"Your Majesty, do you think such people have any objections to the imperial court?"
"As for the prestige of Shen Tang! Your Majesty, I shouldn't say it originally, but for the sake of the Song Dynasty, I will say a few words! In the past hundred years, our Song Dynasty was first invaded by the Liao Kingdom, and then defeated by the Jin Kingdom. The most important thing is The reason is that the soldiers don’t know the generals, and the generals don’t know the soldiers! Why is Shen Tang so invincible?
In addition to Shen Tang's strategy and bravery, he also knows his soldiers very well."
Having said this, Zhang Jun respectfully paid tribute, "Your Majesty's grace! It is a blessing to the people in the Song Dynasty to have a wise king like Your Majesty. It is also a blessing to the people in the Song Dynasty to have ministers like Shen Tang! Please...please Your Majesty, please don’t let the Fengbo Pavilion incident happen again! We, the Song Dynasty, are surrounded by wolves, and we must not destroy our loyalty!”
"I'm so outrageous in what I've said. Please punish me, Your Majesty!"
Looking at the gray-haired old minister in front of him, who dedicated his whole life for the Song Dynasty, Zhao Shen was filled with emotion! The Song Dynasty was not easy! The Song Dynasty was lucky!
"Deyuan, get up! I will remember what you said!"
Zhao Shen personally stepped forward and helped Zhang Jun up! Zhao Shen and the Song Dynasty were lucky to have such a minister.
After getting up, Zhang Jun said again, "If you want Shen Tang to return, your Majesty must not be in a hurry! Haste makes waste! However, what happened this time is actually a good thing!"
"Good thing?"
Zhao Shen frowned!
"Tang Shen is a very passionate person, and what happened this time shows it! He would give up his high position and salary for a woman. Has Your Majesty ever seen a person with such a temperament?"
"It's a good thing that a person has shortcomings! Your Majesty doesn't want his ministers to be saints!"
Zhang Jun's words suddenly made Zhao Shen realize! People who have no desires and desires are the most disturbing, but a flawed person will make people feel at ease!
"Besides, this is exactly what Your Majesty can take advantage of!"
"oh?
tell me the story?"
"Although Shen Tang temporarily went to the Northern Kingdom, his home is still in the Song Dynasty!"
Zhang Jun paused for a moment, then continued, "Your Majesty, in the case of Liu Hongye, it was actually difficult to tell right from wrong. Since Your Majesty can overturn the case for Yue Fei, having Liu Hongye in the back doesn't seem to be a big deal!"
"Liu Hongye's wife is now in Lin'an City. At that time, Liu Hongye was also a veteran in the army. Isn't it only natural that His Majesty would reward his wife once or twice?"
"good!"
Zhao Shen’s eyes lit up!
"In addition, Shao Xun, the magistrate of Lianli City, has a good relationship with Master Ma Shao, and is also a useful person. Although he has only been in Lianli City for a short year, he has made outstanding achievements. If Your Majesty does not choose such a minister, who will choose him? ?
In fact, last year, the five northwest roads were flooded. If it hadn’t been for the Shaosheng family’s caravan, the imperial court didn’t know how many people would have been harmed!”
"Although the imperial court has compensated with salt and other supplies, isn't this caravan the mainstay of the imperial court!"
"Okay, okay, okay! What Aiqing said makes sense!"
Zhao Shen nodded with satisfaction, "Let me think about this matter carefully!"
"There is one more thing. Your Majesty does not have to be on guard all the time!"
Zhang Jun thought for a while and said softly, "The princess has something to belong to. Although it is unreasonable, it may not be a good destination! Moreover, if Shen Tang becomes your majesty's consort, is your majesty still afraid that Shen Tang will be able to escape?" Palm?"
"The princesses of their Jin Kingdom, in my opinion, are definitely not as good as our princesses of the Song Dynasty!"
Zhang Jun's words made Zhao Shen frown. He had been resisting this matter in his heart! It's not that Shen Tang is not worthy of Zhao Ling. Even Zhao Shen, a doting sister, has to admit that Shen Tang is worthy of Zhao Ling. .
But the problem is, Shen Tang already has a wife and concubines, does he still want his own girl to squeeze in?
Even in the Song Dynasty, there were many wives and concubines. As for Shen Tang, it was completely unexpected.
Needless to say, Xiangling, the wife, Wanyan Yue, the most favored princess in the Jin Kingdom, couldn't possibly become a concubine, right?
Therefore, it is natural to marry according to the standards of a head wife. Then Shao Muyu and Zhao Shen personally proposed the marriage. If the marriage is not based on the standards of a head wife, wouldn't it mean that Zhao Shen, the emperor, would lose face?
"Let me think about this matter before discussing it!"
Zhao Shen rubbed his brows and said, if it were other women, it would be fine, but when it comes to his own sister...
"Your Majesty, now that everyone is far away in the Kingdom of Jin, we can't tell what the princess's feelings are! By then we will be in love, and maybe by this time next year, your Majesty will be promoted to uncle..."
Zhang Jun's words made Zhao Shen glare! Uncle?
What the hell is this name?
"He...he dares!"
However, at this moment, Zhao Shen is obviously a bit stern and jealous, saying that he can't let go of his children and can't ensnare the wolf. Do you want to play a role of he can't let go of his girl and can't ensnare Shen Tang?
It’s like hell!
"What kind of idea do you have! You don't look like a dignified privy envoy!"
Zhao Shen glared at Zhang Jun and said, "Don't think that I don't know. You have long wanted to let Shen Tang take over your position as Privy Councilor! Now, Shen Tang has gone directly to the North Kingdom, so you can continue to work for me, Shen Tang." If Tang doesn’t come back, don’t even think about going back to your hometown to retire!”
"Besides, now that Shen Tang is away, you have to keep a close eye on the war in Tubo. If something goes wrong, I will take it from you!"
