In Lan Xiuxuan, Shen Yue is not the oldest one, but he seems to be the one with the most power and the most eclectic.

The ministers were secretly awe-struck when they heard Shen Yue's casual promise.

They didn't think Shen Yue was bragging. In fact, according to well-informed people, Shen Yue really wanted a high official for everyone.

The fact that Han Shizhong was promoted from Bingyilang to Commander of the Four Wings of the Capital had already spread throughout the court.

Zhao Ji was noncommittal.

Zongze looked at Shen Yue with squinted eyes, and then said after a while: "If I want to be a privy councilor...what about the deputy envoy?"

The ministers were surprised, and Tong Guan looked displeased. As a privy envoy, although he did not rely on his ability to lead troops, he had struggled for many years. Zongze was now a commoner, and he wanted to be his deputy when he opened his mouth, which really made him feel ridiculous. .

Shen Yue said even more absurdly, "Okay, then today I will ask the Holy One to grant you, Zongze, the official position of deputy privy envoy."

The officials were in an uproar and all looked at Zhao Ji.

Zhao Ji pondered for a moment and then said: "I'm sure."

Everyone was surprised, thinking that Zhao Ji might be crazy, but no one dared to raise objections, because they found that Shen Yue looked pleasant, but he was also extremely violent when attacking his opponents.

Cai Jing was secretly shocked. He thought he knew Zhao Ji's thoughts very well. At this moment, he realized that Zhao Ji was indescribably strange, as if he had just met him today.

Zong Ze was also full of disbelief, and almost wanted to ask, are you Shen Yue, Zhao Ji, kidding me?

Shen Yue said seriously, "Deputy Privy Councilor, now that the Jin people are raising troops, what do you think?"

Zongze was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that Shen Yue was talking to him, "I...I..."

When he saw everyone looking at them, he suddenly raised his head and said, "The heart of the golden man is like a tiger and a wolf, and he demands endlessly. There is no dignity in kneeling in this world, only self-esteem in winning. If we sue for peace immediately, the other party will probably despise the Song people even more." , According to my opinion, the best strategy now is to gather elite troops, reward the brave with heavy rewards, and rush to Yanyun, so as to snipe the Jin people in the northern Xinjiang."

It was quiet inside the pavilion.

Most people showed disapproval.

Shen Yue looked at Tong Guandao, "What do you mean by the Privy Envoy?"

Tong Guan's eyelids twitched and he suddenly said, "There is some truth to what the deputy privy envoy said."

Shen Yue asked, "How much?"

Tong Guan was stunned. He was just trying to evade the question. He didn't want Shen Yue to ask such a question. He hesitated for a moment and said, "It should make sense."

Everyone looked at each other in shock.

Tong Guan coughed and then said, "If Zongze...the deputy privy envoy leads the army to Yanyun to fight against the Jin, I think it makes the most sense." After saying this, he smiled slightly.

Everyone thought to themselves that it turned out that the deputy privy envoy was going to die. Thinking of this, everyone smiled knowingly.

Although many ministers praised Zhao Ji for accomplishing the unparalleled feat of recovering the sixteen states of Yanyun that even Taizu could not take back, as long as they are not stupid, they will eventually understand that the so-called recovery is more like buying back.

The Maritime Alliance agreed that Song and Jin would jointly attack the Liao Kingdom and seize territory belonging to each country. The Jin people won repeated battles. However, the Song army, led by the Liao people's surrender general Guo Yaoshi, could not take Yanjing alone. Instead, they were almost killed by the Liao people. The entire army was wiped out.

This fact fell into the eyes of many people, and they naturally believed that the Song army was far inferior to the Jin people. Tong Guan asked Zongze to fight against the Jin people, which undoubtedly meant that Zongze would die.

Zongze said categorically, "Although I am old, if there is a destiny from the court, Zongze will definitely follow it!"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone fell silent.

Zhao Ji finally showed emotion in his eyes.

In the past, he was always surrounded by the Six Thieves. Any comments and comments were conveyed by the Six Thieves, and most of his impressions of the ministers came from the mouths of the Six Thieves.

But now, he had been humiliated for a long time, knew Zongze's past, and saw Zongze's speech, he finally realized the truth of listening to others.

Valley

Some facts are obvious, but due to their own short-sightedness, they choose to turn a blind eye.

Tong Guanwei was surprised and said calmly, "Then I wish the Deputy Privy Envoy success."

Zongze raised his head and did not look back. He just looked at Shen Yue aggressively and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Shen, please give me your order..."

Shen Yue suddenly waved his hand and stopped Zongze from talking.

Zongze suddenly felt anxious.

His expression of his intention was not impulsive. When Zhao Ji made him the Privy Deputy for the first time, he did not choose to refuse. In fact, it was because he knew that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

The opportunity is fleeting!

Zongze did not seek high-ranking officials and generous salaries, but only wanted to do his best for the country. When he saw Shen Yue's obstruction, he was inevitably anxious, fearing that everything would be just a dream after all.

Shen Yue smiled and said, "The Deputy Privy Envoy is not in a hurry to send troops. Wait for me to ask some questions first."

Looking at Tong Guan, Shen Yue said slowly, "Therefore, Mr. Tong advocates fighting against Jin."

Tong Guan was a little awe-struck and said slowly: "It is rare for a privy deputy to be so brave and loyal. How can we disobey him?" What he was thinking in his heart was that the Jin people were strong. With Zongze as old as him, resisting the Jin would only lead to death. How could it be so? There is a mentality of taking pleasure in others' misfortunes.

Shen Yue said calmly, "But I remember that not long ago, Your Excellency once said..." After a slight pause, Shen Yue repeated: "There is a reason why the Jin people raised troops because of Zhang Jue's incident. The way to solve the problem is to deduce the cause from the effect. , is the right way to solve the antecedents?”

Tong Guan was stunned. This was indeed what he said just now. He didn't want Shen Yue to remember it word for word.

Shen Yue slowly said again, "So you asked Zongze to send troops to fight against the Jin, so that was the so-called solution to the cause?"

Tong Guan frowned.

For a traitor, it is always good to be good but effective. He, Tong Guan, rose to power by figuring out Zhao Ji's preferences. Zhao Ji had extraordinary literary talent, and he, Tong Guan, was also well versed in writing.

In fact, the people who can be around Zhao Ji are all talented and elegant.

Being literary and elegant does not mean that your thoughts are innocent, but rather that you put your best efforts into finding chapters and extracting sentences.

Seeing that Shen Yue was involved in Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism in his conversation, Tong Guan used the theory of cause and effect to try to attract Shen Yue's attention.

Unexpectedly, Shen Yue had just dismissed his theory of cause and effect, but now he was using his words to attack him.

"I...don't...that's not what I mean." Tong Guan hesitated.

Shen Yue smiled and asked, "What do you mean?"

Tong Guan felt that the other party's names were becoming more and more rude, as if he was reducing his official position, and said solemnly, "My envoy...I mean..."

He hesitated for a moment, his mind racing, but under Shen Yue's aggressive gaze, he couldn't think of anything to say.

Shen Yue interrupted, "Since you can't tell me, let me tell you what you mean."

Looking at Tong Guan whose eyelids were twitching, Shen Yue said in a deep voice, "When you saw that I was involved in Buddhism and Taoism, you wanted to use the theory of cause and effect to attract my attention, but you were dissatisfied with Zongze's promotion, so you pretended to agree with me. I mean, I want to send Zongze to fight against Jin and die."

"Mr. Shen..." Tong Guan was cunning and cunning, but he didn't want Shen Yue to expose his fox mentality with just one mouthful. He was really awe-inspiring in his heart.

"You think that Zongze is too old and this battle will be lost. When Zongze is defeated, it won't matter whether he died in the battle or not. But of course you say that you don't agree with using troops against Jin, just like Cai Jing who blamed Wang Fu, and then The blame is put on my head." Shen Yue said soberly.

Tong Guan was shocked and didn't want Shen Yue to be like a roundworm in his stomach.

Cai Jing was also trembling, his lips moved but he could not speak.

They never dreamed that Shen Yue looked young, but his eyes were so vicious that even old foxes like them couldn't compare to them.

Zongze was surprised.
