Pang Ji thought for a long time and finally made a difficult decision. He wanted to see Li Ning's reaction to this letter.
Therefore, he sent someone to invite Li Ning, and during the time before his arrival, he read the letter written by the emperor to himself.
"Lord Cao Si."
As this symbolic title sounded, Pang Ji put down the letter in his hand, and then motioned for Li Ning to sit down.
He knew that although Li Ning was separated from him by a screen of light, the distance was actually not that far away.
Maybe he only needs to walk a few steps to cross the light curtain and go from the construction site on one side to the construction site on the other. Then follow the river next to the construction site to reach Quanzhou City smoothly.
This gave him a sense of security in his heart. At least the kite, which might have been blown away by the strong wind, was still firmly in his hand at this moment.
"Sir, the officials and the court have made a decision on the Fujian Road matter. I invite you here this time to tell you the details."
"Master Cao Si, please speak."
"The Economic and Strategy Department has been approved to be established, and the Municipal Shipping Department has also begun discussions. However, in the letter written to me, the official was a little worried about the harm suffered by the local people in Fujian. He believed that it was really unfair to do business with the enemy like this. It’s disgraceful.”
"Your Majesty is very considerate, but that group of people just went the wrong way. Moreover, with the power of Fujian Road, it is good that we can scare them away. Lord Caosi also knows this. The reason why If you want to do business with them, you are just hiding your strength and biding your time. The Zhao Yuanhao in the Western Frontier is a bit dishonest now. If our Emperor Song makes provocations in other places, then..."
"Is that what you mean if you're afraid of being taken advantage of by others?"
"Your Excellency is wise!"
"So even you think so. It seems that Shaanxi's soldiers are inevitable."
Hearing this, Li Ning stood up curiously and asked, "After hearing what you mean, there are knowledgeable people in the court who have the same opinion as me."
"Well, there is indeed a group of courtiers who have similar ideas, but judging from the letters written by the officials to me, this group of courtiers were influenced by a man named Mr. Boya."
Li Ning was stunned for a moment. As a time traveler and a knowledgeable person in the Song Dynasty, especially a person with such influence, it was impossible for him not to be unimpressed.
But he just couldn't remember this person. It wasn't because he had a problem with his memory, but because there really wasn't such a person in the Song Dynasty.
He wanted to ask Pang Ji about the specific situation of this person, so he smiled and said: "I wonder what the name of this Mr. Boya is? Where is he from? His life..."
"Hey, stop it!" Pang Ji showed his hand and stopped Li Ning from questioning, "I only know his surname is Sun. Even if I can tell you other things, it won't be of any vital help. Instead of talking about those useless things, let's take a look. What’s in the letter the official wrote to you?”
"Uh..." Li Ning smelled a strong smell of spying. As an important minister of the imperial court, prying into the letters between the emperor and others was undoubtedly suspected of assuming the holy will, but he still tore it open in front of Pang Ji. Paint for letters.
"Sir, the words are like seeing each other. I heard that there are changes in Fujian, and I am troubled day and night. But I know that you are familiar with changes, and you can deal with them well. He is really a good talent of our emperor Song Dynasty. If Mr. Meng does not give up, and pities me for living in palace confinement for a long time, No news from China or foreign countries is allowed, so please tell the story in detail and let me know... Your Majesty, do you want to hear a story?"
"Haha..." Pang Ji couldn't help laughing, "As the lord of the world, he can't appreciate the beauty of the world, so he can only listen and hear more. I think you pity me, a student, and tell me what you know Tell him about the so-called light screen barbarian sentiments. By the way, who is Alexander, and which barbarian tribe should he belong to?"
Li Ning's facial expression was distorted for a while, and it took him a long time to say: "Strictly speaking, Alexander should belong to the Hu people. Just like An Lushan, An Lushan's surname is actually the transliteration of Alexander."
Pang Ji's face immediately turned green.
"My emperor, Song Dynasty, has learned lessons from the decline of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. We have always talked about the defense of Huayi. Now I feel that the conclusion of this alliance is a bit hasty."
"Master Caosi, this is actually an alliance under the city, a replica of the Chanyuan Alliance. We cannot regret this."
Pang Ji's face turned even greener.
He didn't expect Li Ning to understand it so well.
It seems that I have a hard job.
So he threw the letter he received directly to Li Ning.
The content of this letter is much longer than the one written to Li Ning.
But to sum up, there are only three things that have a direct impact on Li Ning.
First: Emperor Zhao Zhen was worried that changes like the light curtain would appear in the future, so he hoped that Pang Ji could sort out Li Ning's strategies in case of emergencies.
Second: Li Ning's official position is determined by Pang Ji himself, but Li Ning's safety and knowledge must be taken seriously.
Third: The imperial court will cooperate with Pang Ji to satisfy Li Ning's request. This is mainly to facilitate his execution of strategies and eliminate hidden dangers in the southeast for the Song Dynasty.
It can be seen from this that the emperor still attaches great importance to Li Ning.
However, the reason is still because of the little tricks played by Li Ning. Therefore, the belief of the emperor and the court is not actually based on strict logic and science.
This reminded Li Ning of the sports industry of later generations of China. If athletes in any event are easy to achieve results, then the whole country will lean towards that event. This was the case with Ding Junhui's billiards, and the same was true with later trampoline.
This was mainly to cater to the officials' need to improve their political achievements, but Li Ning couldn't figure out what political achievements the emperor had to achieve?
Of course, it was inconvenient for him to ask such a question, so he could only leave with the question.
However, Pang Ji brought him a huge trouble.
A group of young scholars and clerks followed Li Ning like tails at some point.
Li Ning stopped, turned around and asked the black-faced scholar walking at the front: "What are you doing?"
"Don't blame me, little sir. Mr. Cao Si sent me to help you record the story."
"Recording the story?" Li Ning was slightly shocked, "Is it a story written for the officials? Then there is no need for so many people to record it! I can just write it myself."
"Little sir. Mr. Caosi believes that some stories should not only be told to the official family. The official family is in the ninth level, and there are many things that we need to do for him. Therefore, we should also know about Guangmu Yiqing. .”
Li Ning's hands trembled, but he quickly understood that they were not sent to monitor him.
"Very good. Those big bosses don't know how to organize information. With you, many things can be done better."
"Sir, I'm afraid you have misunderstood again."
"It doesn't matter. If you want to take the story away from me, you have to do as I say. Then again, how can you see a wonderful story if you don't experience something?"
"What the teacher said is true, and the students will remember it."
"Student? I don't think I'm older than you."
"Han's official department once said..."
"May I have your name?"
"There are successive generations of people who have learned the Tao, and there are special skills. Ah! I am Su Mian, whose surname is Xuanfu, and I am from Jinjiang."
"Oh." Li Ning nodded, indicating that he remembered. Then he asked again: "Since you were sent by the old official, do you know that he has thought about the words on my tea table?"
The young scholars had long known that Li Ning often used strange names, so when they heard the word "Lao Guan", they couldn't help but chuckle.
But this little humor undoubtedly narrowed the distance between the two parties, so Su Yan boldly said: "Sir, it's better not to make it difficult for old Gu An. He has been holding it in for several days and hasn't come out yet."
Lu Xiaqing on the side took this opportunity and said: "Sir, why don't you ask the official to give you a cousin when you reply to the letter?"
"Uh..." Li Ning pretended to be thinking, but he was sneering in his heart. This kind of native method of climbing high in the officialdom was actually used on the emperor. This young man is really not simple, but he seems to regard himself as A fool.
But it was just enough of a story to tell the emperor.
