Chapter 754 Wang Wushan doesn't want to embarrass me
Chapter 763

Zhao Xu carefully read the letter word by word, without saying a word for a long time, his brows were deeply furrowed, and the empress dowager Gao Taotao didn't rush him, but asked Xu Degong to bring Zhao Xu a cup of dragon and phoenix tea and put it on the table Before Zhao Xu’s case.

The scent of tea finally woke up Zhao Xu from his contemplation. Zhao Xu reluctantly smiled at the Empress Dowager Gao Taotao, but that smile was too ugly.

"This news is really...too unbelievable to me, but I also think the analysis is very reasonable."

"Could it be that the Liao Kingdom finally couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to confront the Song Dynasty?" Zhao Xu's mood at this moment was really hard to calm down.

Since Emperor Renzong, the Song Dynasty and the Liao Kingdom have entered a period of peace. Since small-scale regional conflicts have occurred from time to time, such conflicts can be easily resolved.

Moreover, the two countries have never declared war again, and it has been decades.This is why after receiving the information from the Imperial City Secretary, the Privy Council brought it to the court meeting for discussion, and in the end, all the civil servants and generals of the court felt that Song Dynasty did not need to worry too much.

It was just that Han Zhongyan and Han Xianggong, who were calming the east road, paid attention to strict vigilance, and did not take any action, and Zhao Xu also felt that there would be no major problems, so the decision of the court council was passed smoothly.

However, Zhao Xu himself never imagined that he had promised Wang Yang, the old driver, that any information from outside the Song Dynasty would be handed over to the Privy Council by the Imperial City Secretary, as well as to Wang Yang in the three states. A copy of the information library established.

As a result, Wang Dacai's brain hole was really extraordinary. Through information, combined with those clues, he constructed it vividly, or guessed a chilling possibility.

The mobilization of soldiers and horses of the Liao Kingdom this time is definitely not unusual, and its motivation is very likely to be aimed at such an imposing Song Dynasty.

However, it was also taken into account that the court had already set the tone for responding to Beiliao's deployment of troops and generals.

Although Wang Yang and others made their own guesses about the enemy's movements after checking the intelligence, they knew that it was impossible for the court to change their concepts and ideas without empirical evidence.

In view of this, Wang Yang decided to make preparations in advance. Therefore, Wang Yang decided to move out of the city and move to Youzhou to live scattered in the land of Yuzhou.

Second, began to urge the states to massively process arrows and crossbows, and build spears, knives and shields to enrich their armaments.And making paper armor is also a last resort.

"Why didn't Wang Wushan write to me? Could it be that he doesn't trust me so much?" Zhao Xu couldn't help but patted his thigh, and said angrily.

"The officials don't need to be so upset. In fact, the Ai family can think of it, so how can you not think of the official family?" Gao Taotao comforted Zhao Xu with a smile and raised his hand to gently caress Zhao Xu's increasingly broad and strong shoulders.

"I know that he must feel that he can't convince the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty without evidence, but I have always trusted him and believed in his judgment. He should at least tell me, otherwise, if What happened to the land of the three states, then I..."

"It is precisely because Wang Wushan knows that just guessing will definitely not be able to convince the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty, and he also knows that the officials trust him. However, he is only guessing after all. Before he has a [-]% accurate answer, if he I have informed Your Majesty, if this is not the case, then wouldn't he be suspected of deceiving the Emperor?"

"..." Gao Taotao's soft words made Zhao Xu silent for a long time now, yes, what if the Liao army did not come to trouble the three states as Wang Yang guessed?
If Wang Yang told the emperor that his conjectures were leaked, then inevitably, countless memorials to impeach Wang Yang for deceiving the emperor, as well as memorials for various crimes such as lying about military affairs, would inevitably overwhelm Zhao Xu. At that time, even if Zhao Xu wanted to defend Wang Yang, he had to adopt a fair attitude.

"The Ai family also heard that the ministers in the DPRK are now as if they have taken a powerful pill. They are jumping up and down with excitement all day long. They feel that they have seized the opportunity and are constantly impeaching Wang Wushan. In the case of the court, you wantonly cast armor, and you should take it to the capital for questioning..."

"That's right, it's true. Now my grandson's desk is almost full of those impeachment memorials. It seems that Wang Wushan doesn't want to embarrass me. He intends to take the greatest risk. For the safety of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the three states, we are planning for the worst and making the best preparations."

At this time, the young emperor Zhao Xu finally understood Wang Yang's painstaking efforts, and he was really moved and a little regretful in his heart. "If I had known this before, I shouldn't have exported all the captured armor to the border areas, and left more for Shaanxi Road, so that now Wang Wushan can only bite the bullet and make such a big show."

"Presumably, the important ministers in the court are not thinking about this, but thinking that such a good opportunity must not be let go. After all, Wang Wushan and Su Xueshi have offended them terribly. If you take down one, you will take down another.”

Speaking of this, Zhao Xu's tone became colder. Compared with Wang Yang, who put his own career prospects at risk for the safety of the soldiers and civilians in the Three States, he just wanted to be prepared for the most serious situation.

As for the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, they only considered how to take revenge fiercely to relieve the hatred in their hearts.This kind of behavior makes a difference.

It also made Zhao Xu feel cold-hearted. The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were more focused on fighting for profit.Now, due to the case of smuggling businessmen in Yanzhou, Zhao Xu has returned some of the New Party officials who were relegated from the capital to the court.

But the problem is, as soon as those people came back, they told Zhao Xu all day long about the harm caused by the old party, and they must expel all the old party from the court and let the new party preside over the government again.

Zhao Xu patiently asked these returning new party members about the pros and cons of the late emperor's reform.The result is that there are only good things to say, and no bad things to say, even those reform clauses that disturb the people and harm the people, and in the end even Wang Anshi himself thought it was problematic.

In the mouths of these people, how can ordinary people understand how the country treats them well, even if there are difficulties and harm?In short, reforms are good, and changes are bad.

Such extreme words and deeds made Zhao Xu, who had already appeared to be mentally mature and had his own considerations in his heart, finally wake up.

I was not swayed by the opinions of these people but followed my own ideas and decided to go step by step.A bunch of troublesome things have not been dealt with yet, and now, they have encountered such a problem.

However, this incident, not only did not weaken Zhao Xu's trust in Wang Wushan, but on the contrary, he felt more and more that Mr. Wushan, whom he fully supported, was indeed the real king of the country.

"Emperor Grandmother, what should my grandson do? How can I help Wang Wushan without arousing strong opposition from the ministers and workers." Zhao Xu took a deep breath and set his eyes on the Empress Dowager Gao Taotao .

At this moment, he knew very well that only the emperor's grandmother could help him make suggestions without any selfish intentions.

　There is something to do today, there is only one update, and there will be two updates tomorrow.
