That night, the three groups of people sent by the Song Dynasty had their own surveillance targets, but none of the three groups of people communicated in advance, resulting in no cooperation between the three groups of people, but they did their own things. Afterwards, the two groups of people who monitored the Jin Dynasty's mission and monitored and protected Mao Geng Wenyuan were scolded. This incident could have been completely avoided. These fools did not protect Mao Geng Wenyuan in advance, resulting in abnormal contacts that could have been avoided. They broke into the Jin Dynasty's mission and forced Wenyuan away, causing adverse effects.

Fortunately, nothing major happened, and Yelu Jing himself was very guilty, so the matter was left alone.

But Mao Geng realized the fact that he and Wen Yuan were also monitored by the court.

In Mao Geng's impression, Zhao Shen was a kind emperor. After staying in Lin'an for so long, he had a deeper understanding of Zhao Shen. He felt that Zhao Shen's greatest strength was financial management. There were few omnipotent emperors in history. Some were good at managing finances, some were good at expanding territory, and some were good at maintaining success. Some were rich in artistic expertise, such as Li Yu and Song Huizong, one was a master of lyrics, and the other was a master of calligraphy and painting. They were not good at governing the country, but they were undoubtedly the most accomplished artists at that time. Of course, there were also those who were only good at eating, drinking and having fun, and the state affairs had nothing to do with him. The most tragic thing was the unlucky last emperors, such as Zhu Youjian, who were neither good at managing finances nor fighting, and had not yet made food, drinking and having fun, and they worked very hard. They had to work hard to manage the government affairs of the court and the government, but in the end they destroyed the country.

The emperor who could fight and manage finances might be the first to recommend Zhu Di, the Emperor Chengzu of Ming Dynasty, who might not even be as good as Emperor Taizong of Tang. During the Yongle period of Emperor Chengzu of Ming Dynasty, the Forbidden City in Beijing was built, the canal was dredged, the five expeditions to the north of the desert, and the "Yongle Encyclopedia" were compiled. All these five things were costly, but during the Yongle period, the country was prosperous and the economy was very prosperous. Therefore, later generations commented that Yongle's rule was far away from the Han and Tang Dynasties. Zhu Di was very proud of being an emperor.

Although Zhao Shen was not as good as Zhu Di, who was wise and powerful, he was also very good among the emperors in terms of financial management. Zhao Shen took over the mess of the Southern Song Dynasty from Emperor Gaozong and quickly turned losses into profits. This shows how Zhao Shen's financial management level can be seen. If we only look at financial management, it is undoubtedly Zhao Shen's ranking among the top emperors who are good at financial management in history.

Mao Geng’s understanding of Zhao Shen has become deeper from today’s matter. The reason why Zhao Shen was successful in financial management is because he was able to grasp it politically. In other words, Zhao Shen has strong execution ability, which is able to achieve today’s economic achievements. Therefore, Zhao Shen’s success cannot be simply attributed to his financial management talent. Zhao Shen is also very strong in politics. From this matter, you can see the big ones from the small to the big ones. Zhao Shen’s arrangements are made in advance, and preventing problems before they happen is a meticulous move.

From Zhao Shen's standpoint, a person like himself who is mysterious in everything must focus on protection on the one hand, and of course focus on prevention on the other hand. This is an inevitable choice for a mature politician. Zhao Shen should be said to have done a very correct job on this point. He had neglected this before, but today he realized that his situation was very embarrassing.

Mao Geng saw the small knowledge and thought about it for a long time. He knew that this was a legitimate precautionary measure for the emperor. If he were himself, he would probably be the case, but he was still quite uncomfortable. After all, he thought about it. It is still inconvenient to stay at the emperor's feet for a long time! I have to ask tomorrow when the troops will be sent to Taiwan and that he can truly enjoy the freedom of a vast ocean and a vast sky. Of course, I dare not think about the absolute freedom of the imperial society, but the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and it is always much more free than under the eyes of others.

The next day, Yang Wanli came to Wen Yuan and asked about the things Wen Yuan had talked with the Jin people yesterday in front of Mao Geng. In fact, Wen Yuan's response was not wrong. Anyway, the Jin people did not succeed in buying cement, but the relationship between Song and Jin was very sensitive, and it was definitely not as simple as Champa. The Song Dynasty has always been very cautious about this. However, Yang Wanli felt that Wen Yuan accidentally fell into the trap of the Jin people, not intentionally causing trouble, so he did not blame him. He just told him not to interact with the Jin people again, so he left.

Yang Wanli asked about this and entered the palace in the afternoon to report to Zhao Shen in person.

Zhao Shen was an emperor who paid attention to details. When Xin Qiji built a military camp in Changsha, Xin Qiji was impeached and knew the temperament of the official family, so he sent all the books of the military camp to Lin'an and asked the official family to preview. Zhao Shen really read it carefully. Of course, after reading it, he knew that Xin Qiji was innocent in the construction of the military camp. But from this we can see that paying attention to details is Zhao Shen's style.

After listening to the report, Zhao Shen's tense nerves relaxed. Although Zhao Shen was kind, if Mao Geng and Wenyuan made an action that endangers the Song Dynasty, Zhao Shen would have some way to deal with these two people.

From what Yang Wanli said and what Han Tuozhou said yesterday about Mao Geng and the people from Chameng, Zhao Shen felt that this was purely due to the profit-seeking nature of merchants, which is understandable.

This is not a big deal, and it is also a good thing to do with Chameng. Zhao Shen has always been encouraging about doing business, so he said:

"Since this matter was initiated by the Jin people, there is no need to pursue it anymore. Champa and Jin people are different after all, and the transactions with Champa have always been uncontrollable, and of course this time it is the same. It is also a good thing for them to build houses in Champa to make profits. However, if Chen Liang will go to Champa to be a lobbyist, what are the pros and cons of this matter? "

Han Tuozhou also reported Mao Geng's strategic conception yesterday. Zhao Dun and Zhao Han, as well as Zhou Bida and Liu Zheng, who were present, also knew that Chameng was about to start a war with Zhenwata, and Mao Geng wanted to exert influence to prevent the war from happening. After hearing what the officials said, Zhou Bida had thought about it before and immediately said:

"Reporting to the official family, the old ministers thought that they should strive to make Chameng and True Wax repair. Chameng and True Wax fight, and Annan reaps the benefits of the fisherman, is definitely not a blessing for the Song Dynasty. Moreover, if Chameng is really defeated, it is probably a trivial matter to take the position of Mao Geng, and the people of the Song Dynasty sent to Chameng will not be able to be undesired. Therefore, for Mao Geng, he must try every means to avoid war in both public and private affairs. Chen Liang must have thought so, and this matter is not difficult to understand. If this matter can be achieved, it will be beneficial to our Song Dynasty without any harm. In the foolish opinion of the old minister, it is a great thing."

Liu Zheng had an opinion on Chen Liang and stood up and said:

"I think this is a good idea, but Chen Liang has been talking unpretentiously after drinking many times. I am only afraid that he will still have such a problem after going to Cham City. If he still acts like this in Cham City, he is afraid that he will make mistakes after drinking. Not only will he lose his merits, but he will also damage my face."

Zhao Dun also knew Chen Liang's faults, and at this time he also agreed with Liu Zheng's point of view, pointing out that Chen Liang was not a suitable diplomat.

Zhao Han was full of blood. One was towards Mao Geng, and the other was that the Song Dynasty certainly wanted to exert influence on Chameng, so he stood up and spoke, pointing out that Chen Liang's identity was not the official position of the Song Dynasty, but the director of the West China Construction Company. If the King of Chameng was willing to listen to Chen Liang's words, then of course everything would be fine. If he didn't listen, it would have nothing to do with the Song court. Just like Wu Yunxiang helped Chameng win the real wax, the real wax would not look for the Song Dynasty. The two are the same. If things were successfully achieved, it would be a joy for the Song Dynasty. If things were not harmonious, the Song Dynasty would be fine.

In fact, what Zhao Shen was most worried about was that Chen Liang was talking nonsense after drinking. It would be fine to be embarrassed in the Song Dynasty, but if he was embarrassed to go to Fanbian, it would be unfair. However, what Zhao Han said was reasonable, and Zhao Shen was unwilling to sit down and watch the two countries of Chameng and Zhenwax go to war, and let Annan reap profits. After communicating this, Zhao Shen looked forward to Chen Liang going to Chameng and exerting a positive influence on the king of Chameng.

After the official business was said, the king and his ministers were not talking about nothing, so the topic turned to the "Diaoyutai" built by Mao Geng. Liu Zheng felt that it was necessary to cover several major palaces with glazed tiles and glass, otherwise the palaces in Champa would be better than those in the Song Dynasty in the future, which would be quite unbeautiful for the Supreme Kingdom of the Celestial Empire.

In response to this, Zhao Shen smiled:

"The man Mao Geng specifically named it 'Diaoyutai'. Could it be that I will become the fish they want to catch? I think that if the Jin people were willing to take the bait and let their West China Construction Company build houses and buildings, I would be happy to see it. What's wrong with the merchants of the Song Dynasty making money from the Jin people and making him a lot!"

OK! Yang Wanli was a little confused and thought to himself that the official family also wanted to kill the golden man. Well, this is of course completely understandable! Who doesn’t want to! Then, should I add fuel to the transaction between West China Company and the golden man on an appropriate occasion?

However, Zhao Shen immediately spoke again:

"Everything is ready to take Taiwan, so I'd better send troops as soon as possible! Mao Geng would better let him go to Taiwan as soon as possible, but Wen Yuan can stay as much as possible. After all, he is not the one who is a must. However, if you want to negotiate a deal with the Jin people, Yang Aiqing must participate."

Zhao Shen felt that Mao Geng stayed in Lin'an for a long time and dreams were too long. What Zhao Shen was most worried about was that the Jin people kidnapped Mao Geng. This person had many secrets in his heart, which was one of them. The second was that this person was also a great god of wealth. But the money he earned at this moment was Mao Geng himself. The court only collected 20% of the taxes, but when he arrived in Taiwan, it would turn around and turn it into the court 80%. Zhao Shen made a big fuss in his heart. After all, he felt that only Mao Geng occupied Taiwan as soon as possible and quickly started to handle the official business, so that the account could be calculated.
