Great Song Pirate

Chapter 275
Just when Xu Yi was lying on Zhao Xu's desk and flipping through it happily, Zhang Hu walked in from the outside and saw that Xu Yi was flipping through King Ji's books, he didn't care, anyway, King Ji didn't care Xu Yi read his collection of books, and even generously gave him a set of Mengxi written talks, so what can he do if he reads it now?

As soon as Xu Yi saw Zhang Hu coming in, he quickly put together this set of martial arts classics, put them together and put them on the table, and apologized with a smile: "Brother Zhang laughed again, I'm overstepping again. , It’s just that I don’t like to sit alone, so I have to read some books when I have free time, please forgive me, Brother Zhang!”

Zhang Hu also quickly laughed and said: "My lord always says that you are a great talent. You must have read a lot of strange books to have such a vision. My lord doesn't care if you are flipping through books in his study. How can I, a guard, manage this matter?" It’s okay, you don’t have to be polite, my lord! By the way, just now, the prince ordered me to come over and invite you to his living room, saying that he would introduce a friend to you, so please move and follow me!”

Xu Yi was a little strange, he was supposed to be a commoner, and although he got along well with Zhao Xu, Zhao Xu had never introduced anyone to him!It's just that Zhao Xu is uncharacteristically going to introduce a friend to him today, who could it be?So he reluctantly looked at the set of "Wu Jing Zong Yao" on the case, and followed Zhang Hu to leave Zhao Xu's study.

Under the guidance of Zhang Hu, they quickly bypassed the courtyard and came to the living room in front. After hearing Zhang Hu's report, Zhao Xu rushed out from the hall to greet him. He grabbed Xu Yi's wrist and said with a smile: "Brother Xu is back, I was worried that you would not come to my place again when you go back to Hangzhou this time! That's good, it's good if you come, we will talk about you later First, let me introduce you to someone!" Then he dragged him into the living room.

Xu Yi didn't even have a chance to exchange greetings, so he was dragged into the hall, and he saw a man in his thirties in official uniform standing in the hall to greet them, and when he saw Zhao Xu coming in, he quickly bowed his head to salute.

"Master Zhang, you are welcome. Let me introduce you. This is the expert I mentioned to you. What I said is not what I think alone, but basically he analyzed it for me. They came out, ha ha! This is Xu Yi, a Hangzhou ship merchant, Mr. Xu, and this is Zhang Suo and Zhang Shaofu, come and get to know each other!" Zhao Xu introduced them.

Xu Yi couldn't figure out what this young mansion was like, and what grade of official he was, but judging by his clothes, he should not be a high-ranking official, and he was also very unfamiliar with the name Zhang Suo. In the books I have read, this character does not seem to appear, but he still bowed and clasped his fists very politely and said: "Xu Yi, I have met Mr. Zhang!"

The official named Zhang Suo quickly returned the gift and said: "Young Master Xu, you are being polite. Mr. Zhang had heard about you from King Ji earlier, and it was only today that he was able to meet Mr. Xu. Zhang is really lucky in his life!"

After the two greeted each other, Zhao Xu asked them to sit down, and he said: "You two have known each other before, let's continue talking about the topic just now, I don't know if Brother Xu has heard about the incident in Yanjing Yet?"

Xu Yi was taken aback. He had been on his way all this time and didn't pay much attention to things over there. What happened to Yanjing?But when he changed his mind, he still thought of something, so he shook his head and said: "The grass people have been walking on the road these days, and they didn't pay much attention to the things over there. They just arrived in Bianliang today, and they didn't dare to stop, so they rushed to the prince's place. I haven't heard what happened in Yanjing, but since the prince mentioned this matter, I guess the Jinren have returned Yanjing to me, Da Song!"

Zhao Xuwen nodded again and again and said: "Brother Xu is really good at predicting things. He could predict what happened in Yanjing without hearing about it. You are right. The news just came back to the capital two days ago. Yanjing and other places retreated, and Yanjing and other places have been handed over to the Song Dynasty. Tong Guan and others have taken over Yanjing and other places, and Tong Guan also sent people back to the capital to return to the capital. Now there are discussions in the capital This matter is about to be celebrated for Tong Guan and others!" Although Zhao Xu said so, there was no joy on his face.

Xu Yi looked at Zhao Xu with a wry smile. This was already what he expected. Before leaving Bianliang, he told Zhao Xu that the Jin people in Yanjing and other places would definitely be handed over to Song Dynasty soon. As for what benefits Da Song can get when he takes over, it is really hard to say!But he didn't speak, because after all, there was still Zhang seated here, and he could no longer speak freely in front of Zhao Xu like before.

Seeing Xu Yi's wry smile, Zhao Xu went on to say: "Master Zhang, you can't help but believe it. When Mr. Xu left the capital more than a month ago, he had already asserted to me that the Jin people in Yanjing and other places would soon Hand it back to us Da Song, this matter is really expected by him, almost exactly, how can I not be surprised?"

After listening to Zhao Xu's words, Zhang Suo showed a slight astonishment on his face, turned his head to look at Xu Yi again, and cupped his hands in praise: "It turns out that Mr. Xu has such a clear grasp of the current situation, amazing, really amazing! But Zhang has a question, what does Mr. Xu think about this matter?"

Zhao Xu was the first to say: "Brother Xu can speak out if you have something to say. Mr. Zhang and I have been dating for a long time. He still has many opinions that coincide with yours. You might as well talk about it!"

Seeing that Zhao Xu trusted Zhang Suo very much, and hearing him say that many of Zhang's opinions were similar to his own, this shows that this person is by no means an ordinary literati. He cupped his hands and said: "Since the prince asked me to say it, then I will tell you my humble opinion. I hope you can correct me if I am wrong! Regarding the withdrawal of Yanjing and other places this time, as far as I can see, it may not be a good thing." , the Jin people are brutal, if I guessed right, even though Yanyun and other places were handed over to Song Dynasty, I am afraid that they would have already robbed them all when they left, and what was left to us was nothing more than an empty city. Therefore, the current Jin people will hand over Yanjing to us. I’m afraid it’s not that the Jin people don’t want it, but that they still need time to completely resolve the affairs of the Liao Kingdom. If Emperor Zuo is not dead, the Jin people will not give up on him. This time, they are going to kill the Yelu family. So after they got the annual tribute from the Song Dynasty, they temporarily gave up the generation of Yanjing. This is to make a gesture to show that the two countries are still allies. However, I am afraid that once the Jin people eliminate the Yelu family, the alliance relationship between the Song and Jin countries will also end. What should the Jin people do next is to let the horse go to Nanshan and stop the troops There will still be other plans for recuperation, but it’s hard to say. I personally think that with the aggressive personality of the Jin people, I’m afraid the possibility of Ma Fang Nanshan is very small. Yanjing is returned to my Song Dynasty. How long can I hold it? Unknown number!" He didn't finish his words completely, leaving a bit of room for maneuver, lest Zhang Suo think his words were alarmist.

"Great opinion, really great opinion! I didn't expect Mr. Xu to be as clear-headed as the prince said. Hearing what you say is better than reading ten years of books! At first I thought that recovering Yanyun would be a matter of great merit, but I listened." After Mr. Xu's words, let the officials wake up as if they were enlightened. I have written before discussing the disadvantages of the Song Dynasty's use of troops to the Liao Kingdom. Now it seems that once the Liao Kingdom is destroyed, the Jinren will turn their blades. Pointing at me, the world of the Song Dynasty! If this continues, we are afraid that the north will be in trouble!" After hearing Xu Yi's words, Zhang Suo did not express any objection, but immediately expressed his admiration, repeatedly praising Xu Yi's wisdom.

After Zhao Xu listened, his face was even more worried, and after a while of silence, he said: "I also agree with what Brother Xu said, but now things have happened and the situation is irreversible. Does Song Ke have any countermeasures?"

This time Xu Yi didn't answer immediately, but turned his gaze to Zhang Suo at the side, wanting to hear his opinion. After this Zhang Suo lowered his head and pondered for a while, a wry smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he shook his head and said: " It’s not that there is no countermeasure, but I’m afraid it’s useless!”

Zhao Xu frowned, and hurriedly asked, "What does Mr. Zhang mean by this? Why did you say such a sentence?"

Zhang Suo turned his head to look at Xu Yi and said, "I think Mr. Xu's talents should understand what I mean!"

Xu Yi thought to himself, Zhang Suo is really a cunning one, knowing that saying this strategy would offend others, but you don't say it, but you want me to say it, isn't this trying to dig a hole for me?Fortunately, this is at Zhao Xu's place. I really dare not say it in another place!However, he still looks at Zhang Suo's talent differently. His words are indeed reasonable. It's not that there is no countermeasure, but even if there is, it is equal to no!So he also shook his head and said: "Indeed! I also agree with what Mr. Zhang said. I am afraid that even if there is a countermeasure now, it means that there is no such thing!" Let me say first, no way!

Zhao Xu shook his head dissatisfied and said: "You, Zhang Suo, are playing riddles on purpose. Since I invited Mr. Xu over, I didn't treat you and Mr. Xu as outsiders. We are all our own people here. If you have something to say, just say it!" "

Zhang Suo saw that Xu Yi agreed with him, but he refused to speak out for him, so he had no choice but to say: "The lower official said that there is no countermeasure, but it means that there is no countermeasure. It is actually very simple! Today, the emperor wantonly favors those close ministers, and he can't listen to it at all. A little bit of other people's opinions, if these courtiers are not eliminated, I am afraid there is no countermeasure, no matter how good it is! So I don't care about this countermeasure!"

Xu Yi also nodded, expressing his agreement with him. The fact that Zhang can say such things shows that he is indeed not from the treacherous minister's side. No wonder he is valued by Zhao Xu. This person should be a loyal minister.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhao Xu looked up to the sky and sighed, and said angrily: "Is my Song Dynasty's century-old foundation going to be destroyed by their hands like this?" Father Zhao Ji is still pointing at those treacherous ministers.
