Chapter 44 Others can drop you but can't!
When he returned to the bedroom, Zhao Xu felt his whole head was numb. Those ministers were quarreling upside down. If he hadn't been suppressed, he would have probably become a full martial arts sport.
Of course, Zhao Xu could make a decision, but he was also hesitant. By this time, he had already developed an ostrich mentality and hoped that the peace faction and the war faction could decide the outcome, so that he would not need to make a decision by himself.
The problem is that although the main and political factions headed by Cai Jing are strong, the main and military factions headed by Zeng Bu are not weak either.
Zeng Bu was in Cai Jing's battle, but because of his partiality, he was actually at a disadvantage. However, after Zeng Bu raised the banner of the main battle, he attracted many ministers of the main battle faction, such as generals like the Cao family.
Of course, not all the generals want to fight. After all, other people may be just talking, but they have to go to the battlefield to fight.
But the Cao family is different. The Cao family and Ouyang Bian have a deep grudge, so the Cao family firmly stands on the side of the pro-war faction.
As for the Han family, oh, it is Han Qi's Han family. Han Qi has passed away, but his sons are all very promising, especially the eldest son Han Zhongyan. Han Zhongyan took over Han Qi's banner and is now under the jurisdiction of Tianzhang Pavilion and is the governor of Yingzhou. He is appointed as the Minister of Rites and is the governor of Dingzhou as the Privy Councillor.
The reason why Han Zhongyan firmly stood firm in the war was because of the grudge between the Han family and Ouyang Bian.
In Han Zhongyan's eyes, his father had a deep grudge between Ouyang Bian, and Ouyang Bian must have a deep grudge against the Han family, so this battle must be fought.
The Cao family and the Han family stood behind Zeng Bu, and the strength of the pro-war faction increased greatly, enough to compete with the pro-polistic faction.
It is precisely because of this that Zhao Xu is so distressed.
"Your Majesty, I have asked for a meeting."
Zhao Xu frowned, but said, "Please wait for him."
Zhao Xu applied a hot towel to his face, then walked out after he was excited.
"My dear, today's discussion will not come to an end in a while. If there is anything, you can continue to discuss tomorrow, and there is no need to worry."
Zhao Xu said.
Zeng Bu shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, the troops of Xixia are already detained, we have no time."
Zhao Xu's face darkened: "Zixuan..."
Zeng Bu said coldly: "Your Majesty, it's not that I Zeng Bu is wary, but that we must fight!"
Zhao Xu suddenly looked up: "Is it not as good as the Chanyuan Alliance?"
Zeng Bu smiled: "Does there be no covenant with Xixia? Isn't this just to tear it up? Your Majesty, you should know that our opponent is Ouyang Bian, not Li Yuanhao or Yelu Longxu. Ouyang Bian is a man with wisdom as the sea. How could a mere covenant be restrained? If he was such a person, how could he turn Song away!"
Zhao Xu argued: "Although Ji Mo left behind Song, he might not hate Song. If we talked with him well, we might be able to stop the war."
Zeng Bu laughed, but there was no smile in his voice. He said sinisterly: "Your Majesty, why did Ouyang Bian leave the Song Dynasty? Don't you know what you thought? That was forced to leave!"
Zeng Bu looked at Zhao Xu with a pale face, and he said as if he threw out a knife: "Your Majesty, anyone can surrender, but you can't."
Zhao Xu took two steps back as if he was punched in the face. When he spoke again, his voice was as rough as gravel: "Those...those are just imperial skills, balance...Ji Mo, should be able to understand?"
Zeng Bu smiled sinisterly and said, "Ouyang Bian is now an emperor, so you can use some imperial skills immediately. Then other people will still be high-ranking officials, and your Majesty, you...hehe."
Zhao Xu's face was pale, and anger erupted in his heart: "But you are the same, you betray Ouyang Bian. He may hate you much more than hate me! If I don't have a good ending, you won't have a good ending either!"
Zeng Bu smiled and said, "So, I must not fall into his hands, so, I will fight him to the death. Your Majesty, if I lose, I will commit suicide. I believe he will not do anything to our Zeng family. After all, my brother and my brother are still Ouyang Bian's friends.
But the royal family is different. As long as the royal family is still there, it will threaten him, so, your Majesty."
Zhao Xu's face was as bright as gold paper. He was stunned for a long time before he said hoarsely: "Can you beat him?"
Zeng Bu said passionately: "If you can't beat me, you have to fight! I won't surrender. Even if Ouyang Bian wants to kill me, I will let him knock off a few teeth!"
Zhao Xu nodded: "I understand what you mean, then just fight."
Zeng Bu showed joy: "Your Majesty, I think that our Song Dynasty is now at a disadvantage, but it is not good to just defend it..."
Zhao Xu looked up at Zeng Gong and said, "Don't say stupid words about taking the initiative to attack. I have my own arrangements for these. Zixuan, let's do this tonight."
Zeng Bu smiled slightly, bowed and left.
After leaving the hall gate, Zeng Bu looked up at the sky. The autumn night was already quite lonely, but he couldn't help but laugh in a low voice.
"Ji Mo, Ji Mo, you are smarter than me, but it is not because of your father Ouyang Xiu. If I had such a father, I might not be able to do what you are today.
You have a better life experience than me, and you are good at everything, and your luck is better than me, so you can do this. If you give me these opportunities, I can do it.
Haha, but, if you want to accomplish your great cause, you have to ask me. If you want to destroy Song, I will not let you destroy them. At that time, the people of the world will be in poverty, and this account will still be kept in your mind!"
Zeng Bu's voice was low, but his face was as ferocious as an evil ghost.
In the bedroom.
The lights are brightly lit, and the stove has been burned with good bamboo charcoal under the column in the distance, which can both drive away cold and dampness.
Zhao Xu sat barefoot on the chair, staring blankly at the candlelight.
The hall was already warm, but Zhao Xu only felt chill all over and quickly retracted his body into the quilt. His health has become worse and worse in recent years.
In the quilt, his body gradually warmed up, but his mind was filled with tangled.
...
"Are you Ouyang Bian?"
Zhao Zhongzhen, who was meeting for the first time, didn't look very friendly and shouted at Ouyang Bian surrounded by several people.
Zhao Zhongzhen's eyes were scrutinized, with a little unruly.
Zhao Zhongzhen is examining Ouyang Bian.
...
"Ouyang Bian, do you have any words?... Oh, yes, you haven't added a crown yet, you probably don't have any words. Do you have a nickname... Monk, haha, interesting, then I will call you monk in the future, don't call me a young master, just call me Zhongzhen."
"Hey, monk, were you really only eight years old when you wrote the water tune song head?"
"Hey, monk, what the poem says in the Qingyu Case [that man is in the dim light], who is that man? Lu Caiwei?"
"Hey, monk, did you take Lu Caiwei down by you... I don't know much about what it means to take down. My cousins often say that someone who took down a certain brothel... "
"Hey monk..."
...
At that time, I was a chatterbox.
Zhao Xu thought silently.
But Ouyang Bian never seemed to be impatient. He listened to the class with himself and chatted after class. Of course, most of the time, Ouyang Bian listened to himself chatting questions, and then answered what he could answer, and passed by what he couldn't answer.
"Oh... the time was really happy at that time!"
