There were tanks in the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 166

The winter of the first year of Xuanhe.

On November 30th, No.[-] six days into winter, the weather cleared up on this day.

Kaifeng Mansion, Bianjing.

In the Golden Luan Hall, the courtiers gathered.

Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty Zhao Ji held a box of fresh orange juice drinks in his hand, and the mustache on his lips was shaking together, angry, very angry, every word and every sentence of the Qilin Army’s propaganda words made him extremely moved of irritation.

Kill the six thieves!
Six thieves?

Cai Jing?Wang Fu?Tong Guan?Liang Shicheng?Zhu Xi?Li Bangyan?
If these six people are all thieves, then wouldn't he, the emperor, be the head of the thieves?

Qing Jun's side!
Does this mean that he, the emperor, is fatuous and incompetent, being influenced by treacherous ministers?

Zhengchaogang!
Chao Gang needs you to be a rebel?
Zhao Ji's face was gloomy and terrifying, even if he cultivated his mind well in the daytime, it would be hard for him to bear the anger when he saw these words at this moment.

"Snapped."

Most of the fresh oranges were dropped in the center of the hall.

None of the ministers spoke.

The rebellion of the Qilin bandit army in Ruzhou was brought to Bianjing along with boxes of fresh oranges, and finally this matter could no longer be covered up.

As early as the [-]th, Zheng Ci, the magistrate of Yingchang Prefecture, reported on Zhezi Yanming that the Qilin bandit army rebelled in Xiangcheng County. After Zhezi arrived in Bianjing on the [-]th, he was quietly suppressed by the minister Cai Jing. Wen Xun's apology book came up, and mentioned the Qilin Army's rebellion.

The rebellion of the Qilin bandit army was directed at the courtiers from all walks of life, and if one was not handled properly, it would become a ground for impeachment by other courtiers.

In the past two days, people from several factions discussed with each other how to deal with it. The result has not yet come out. As some people brought packing boxes full of fresh oranges to Bianjing, and the news of the Qilin Army uprising was transmitted in Beijing, this matter has yet to come. There was no way to suppress it.

Some of Cai Jing's opponents got a box of fresh oranges produced by the Qilin Army from some unknown place, and handed them to the officials during today's court meeting...

Zhao Ji's strength was not great, the fresh orange was not thrown and exploded, but just rolled a few times on the ground, and finally fell to Cai Jing's feet.Others wanted to move away, but Cai Jing stopped him. He squatted down, picked up the box of fresh oranges, and patted the dust.

Most of the fresh oranges produced by the Qilin Army were not equipped with straws. Cai Jing pierced the tin foil of the suction holes with his fingernails, and drank the orange juice inside in front of courtiers and official Zhao Ji.

"It tastes really good."

Cai Jing smiled and praised many times while drinking fresh oranges.

All the ministers looked at Cai Jing with surprise and disbelief on their faces.

Zhao Ji on the throne also looked at Cai Jing with doubts.

Xiangcheng County is also some distance away from Kaifeng Mansion. Although the Qilin Army distributes a lot of fresh oranges every time they go out of the city, only a small part of the people who have a lot of fresh oranges will go to the capital. The common people don’t understand the pictures on it. What does the wording mean, but I think the picture above is exquisite, and the fresh oranges are delicious, and the box is not discarded.

Therefore, most of the fresh oranges that come to Bianjing are empty boxes that have been drunk.

But some businessmen are different. They are literate and know that the slogan of the Qilin Army is treason and rebellion. Although they have taken a lot, few people can foolishly bring this thing to Bianjing.

As a result, unopened fresh oranges are hardly seen in Bianjing.

The people under him brought a box to Cai Jing. After condemning the Qilin bandit army, he also became interested in the exquisitely printed patterns on it. Said that the taste of the drink was particularly good, so I opened it and drank it.

After drinking it, Cai Jing fell in love with this taste. As he got old, his sense of taste and taste buds had declined drastically, and he had to eat some heavy-flavored meals on weekdays.The drinks and soups made by servants during the daytime are not to his liking. Now this drink called Fresh Orange Duo can actually stimulate his taste buds. After drinking it, the taste buds are still reminiscing about this delicious taste. It should be a kind of orange. of.

It's a pity that the amount of this box is too small, and it will be gone in a few mouthfuls.

As soon as he went to court today, Cai Jing, who usually squinted his eyes half-closed his eyes, was all focused on the fresh oranges in the hands of the officials.

After drinking, Cai Jing seemed to be enjoying himself, and all the courtiers in the court were stunned by Cai Jing's actions.

Even Zhao Ji couldn't stand it any longer, and wanted to cough and remind, a few more words popped out of Cai Jing's mouth: "This thing tastes very delicious..."

Zhao Ji: "..."

Liang Shicheng: "..."

Gao Qiu: "..."

Tong Guan: "..."

Yang Jian:"……"

Even Wang Fu, Zheng Juzhong and the others who secretly opposed Cai Jing were dumbfounded at the moment.

This.

Cai Jing didn't forget to burp after drinking?
Is this thing delicious?

Is this thing really that delicious?
Some courtiers looked at each other in blank dismay.

Uncle, now we are discussing matters in the court, and what we are discussing is the rebellion of the Qilin bandit army. What are you doing?

Zhao Ji on the dragon chair was also twitching at the moment, this old guy was about to say something, but when he saw Cai Jing's face full of enjoyment, Zhao Ji was stunned again, this old guy is not usually a good person , How could it be such an attitude today?
Is it true?

Zhao Ji sat on it in embarrassment, and simply waved his hand, asking the attendants to bring up the box of fresh oranges.

When this box of fresh oranges appeared in the court hall, all the courtiers straightened their heads and looked inside.

Unbelievably, Zhao Ji took out a box of fresh oranges from the inside. Seeing that the official wanted to drink, the eunuch next to him immediately came over with a small piece of wood and pierced the tin foil of the suction hole.

Smelling the scent coming from inside, Zhao Ji's nose moved. The scent of this thing is not obvious, but he doesn't know that the taste is really as good as that old thing said?
Just when Zhao Ji looked at Cai Jing, Cai Jing motioned for one of the eunuchs to bring over a box of fresh oranges, skillfully pierced the tin foil of the suction hole with his nails, and poured it into his mouth.

Nima!

Not only Zhao Ji, but also the ministers in the court were speechless again. Is this still the prince who is quietly on the sidelines?
Zhao Ji rolled his eyes at him, and poured more fresh oranges into his mouth in a mannered manner.

Hey, this taste...

Zhao Ji took another sip.

Hey, this taste...

Zhao Ji took another sip.

what……

One box bottomed out and I drank it all.

When Zhao Ji wanted to get another bottle, he looked at the courtier's stupid eyes, blushed, waved his hand to make the eunuch retreat, and took out a few boxes from it to Liang Shicheng, Tong Guan, Yang Jian, and others in the court hall. Wang Fu and other courtiers.

Most of this box of fresh oranges was brought by Yang Jian's spies from Yingchang Mansion.

After the Qilin rebellion broke out in Xiangcheng County, spies from the imperial court rushed here, but the situation was not very good. At that time, everyone was fleeing the county, and the spies did the opposite, which was inconvenient. They all squatted in Yingchang Mansion.

There are not many boxes of unopened fresh oranges in Bianjing, but there are many in Yingchang Mansion. Some people and businessmen were taken away by these spies in various ways before they came to taste them urgently. They collected a box and sent them to Bianjing. To Yang Jian.

Yang Jian then submitted it to the officials.

cough cough.

Liang Shicheng, Wang Fu, Tong Guan and others all got this box of fresh oranges.

There is also Prince Zhao Huan who is listening to politics.

It's just, why do I feel that today's topic is not right.

Dad, didn't we discuss how to deal with the Qilin bandit army?

PS, the second volume is up.
