With this result, the other courtiers who originally wanted to submit a memorial were naturally happy and had nothing to say. After all, they knew that no matter who was given such a name, it meant ruining their promotion path. Such a person
Useless people are naturally not worth stepping on.
On the contrary, Bao Heizi sincerely thought about Su Shi, so he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. As soon as the next call came, he rushed to Su's house as soon as possible, in order to persuade Su Shi to let him
Take the initiative to admit your mistakes and strive for another result.
Seeing Bao Heizi's completely unpretentious expression of eagerness, Su Shi felt a little moved in his heart. But it was absolutely impossible for him to admit his mistake to Jiang Tai because of this.
A traitor like this, even if he encounters him next time, he will still sneeze.
This has nothing to do with the future, it's just a matter of character.
In the last life, Su Shi would get angry on the Internet for a while when some bullshit bullies or those who called animals did not speak human words. In this life, now that there is a chance to meet face to face, wouldn't it be wrong for him not to do so?
Sorry for this rebirth?
His hands are not itchy!
"Uncle Bao, no need. It's impossible to admit your mistake, not even to death." Seeing that Bao Heizi really wanted to go to Jiang Tai, Su Shi, who had just lowered his head the whole time, spoke.
"You..." Turning around suddenly, what he saw was Su Shi's very serious expression. Bao Heizi raised his hand and didn't know how to continue speaking.
"Uncle Bao, my nephew knows that you are doing it for my own good, but shouldn't people like Jiang Tai be smoked? It is because we in the Song Dynasty bully the weak and fear the strong, even those who have no backbone, that others will look down upon them.
, will make the enemy more and more rampant. This kind of master who only bullies his own family, but bows his knees in front of outsiders, Uncle Bao, let’s be honest, don’t you want to slap him? Or am I doing it wrong?”
Faced with Su Shi's question, Bao Heizi wanted to say that he had done it wrong, but he couldn't say it against his will. In the end, he could only sigh: "But for a spineless person like Jiang Tai, I have to die because of this."
Is it worth ruining your career?"
"Why isn't it worth it? If every Song Dynasty person encountered such a thing, they could stand up and accuse like me, or even slap them directly, instead of thinking about the gains and losses. Wouldn't the Song Dynasty have become stronger long ago?
?At that time, no one dared to mess with the Song Dynasty, right?"
"This..." Of course Bao Heizi knew that what Su Shi said was right, but the problem was that there were too few such people and it would not help the overall situation.
Seeing Bao Heizi being defended by him, Su Shi was amused, put a smile on his face, controlled the wheelchair and stepped forward: "Uncle Bao, my nephew knows that you are doing it for my own good. But who?
Are you saying that you can only serve the country as an official? Isn’t paying more business taxes and replenishing the national treasury another way out?”
"Oh?" Bao Heizi's eyes lit up after hearing this.
Seeing that the attention was attracted, Su Shi said quickly, "Uncle Bao, in the final analysis, war is about making money, allocating food and grass, distributing military pay, and military merit awards. Which of these can be separated from money? And as long as the Song Dynasty's treasury is full,
Now, more resources can be mobilized and the winning rate will be greater. Isn't this another way to contribute to the country?"
Facing Su Shi's words, Bao Heizi felt that something was wrong, but he just couldn't say it. Now that the overall situation was settled, even if he found Jiang Tai, the other party would be willing to forgive Su Shi, but the matter of brain disease was...
Coming from the mouth of an official, it was impossible to overthrow it. In the end, Bao Heizi could only sigh and said: "That's it, that's it. As of now, I don't care anymore."
"Oh, how can I ignore it? Now that I'm here, let's stay here for dinner, and let my good nephew ask you for advice." Su Shi said, and immediately gestured with his eyes to Yue Siling, who was not far away.
Prepare dinner with Qu Donger.
Bao Heizi, who was dragged by Su Shi, couldn't twist it off in the end, so he had to stay with a sigh.

Zongzheng Temple, Zhao Mansion.
Zhao Yunrang came back from the palace, followed Yan Wuwo and was called to his study.
"I went to the palace today to plead for Tongzhiro." As soon as he saw Yan Wuwo, these first words confused him.
"Master, this..." Yan Wu wanted to ask why, but he didn't dare. He was just a housekeeper.
"Okay, I know what you are thinking. It's just that you still need to use this person now and get benefits from him. The most important thing is that this person can't move until you find the money treasure."
After explaining something, Zhao Yunrang added: "I am telling you this because you can go to the Su Mansion tomorrow morning to find Tong Zhilang and ask him if there are any other ways to make money.
Ask for one."
Today, Zhao Yunrang went to plead for Su Shi, even though he was entrusted by Empress Cao.
But after all, people really do their best.
Even if he does his best, he must ask for benefits, otherwise, wouldn't his work be in vain? And he also believes that Su Shi is a smart man, especially now that he has no hope of promotion, let alone making enemies everywhere, then
This is the time to ask for benefits.
"Oh, I understand." Only then did Yan Wuwo understand what Zhao Yunrang meant, and he nodded repeatedly.
But at this time, neither Zhao Yunrang nor Yan Wuwo knew that even though Su Shi had no hope of promotion, his temper had not changed. He would not bow his head because of his current situation.
...
Jiang Mansion.
After Jiang Tai woke up, he was carried home by his servants.
Some colleagues came to visit before, and they all said indignantly that they wanted to look good to Su Shi. The general idea was that we were all members of the scholar-bureaucrats, and Su Shi had gone too far, and not punishing him severely would not be enough to appease the official's anger.
But when it was almost dark, no colleagues were seen arriving. Not only that, the steward sent out also learned important news, that is, the officials failed to make a decision because Su Shi had a brain disease.
Any punishment would require him to be sent to Kaifeng Mansion for questioning after he recovers from his injuries.
The sudden change completely caught Jiang Tai off guard.
I thought that I was a victim, and the officials and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty would give me an explanation. Especially the person who did it, Su Shi, must be severely punished. Otherwise, where is the national law? Where is the face of the scholar-bureaucrats?
If no one is unreasonable in the future, and it all depends on whose fist speaks loudly, won't the court be in chaos?
Before that, Jiang Tai was still thinking about how he would humiliate Su Shi in prison, regain his lost face, and give Su Shi a good reward after he was severely punished and removed from office.
When Shi Ji slapped her, things ended up like this.
This was a result that was completely beyond his expectation. When Jiang Tai heard this, he fell back on the wooden bed with a plop.
If Su Shi is not wrong, doesn't that mean he is wrong?
Thinking that the Kaifeng Mansion would come to arrest people next, and that he would probably be removed from the official position, and even more likely to be punished, or even exiled, leaving the prosperous Bianliang City, he felt his first wave of pain.
"Sir, master, are you okay?" The housekeeper looked at this moment, and Jiang Tai's face became quite ugly, and he couldn't help but ask with concern.
"It's okay, I can't die yet, I can't die." Jiang Tai yelled, and then his face became gloomy, and he quickly thought of countermeasures. After a while, he looked at the housekeeper and asked: "I heard you before
I said, do you know some Jianghu people?"
"Oh, they are not complete Jianghu people, just some warriors who wield swords and sticks." The housekeeper didn't know what the master meant, so he could only say this casually.
"It's enough to wield swords and guns. In this case, you go out and contact them and tell them that there is a high reward for Su Shi's head."
At this moment, Jiang Tai was going crazy with rage. There was only one thing in his mind, that is, since you are unkind, don’t blame me for being unjust. Even if I, Jiang Tai, are having a hard time, so are you, Su Shi.
Don't try to have a good day.
Of course, Jiang Tai also used this matter to warn his colleagues. If he is pushed into a hurry, he can do anything. Then maybe when he is interrogated next, they will have concerns and will stay.
It is possible that he will be reinstated to his post after that.
In the Song Dynasty, not everyone who went to Kaifeng Mansion Prison would be found guilty, which meant that there was still the possibility of turning over. But the premise was that Jiang Tai had to do something.
The reward order to cause trouble for Su Shi was the way he came up with. While taking revenge, he wanted to scare some people and tell them not to be cruel to him, otherwise, he would even be afraid of himself if he went crazy.
The housekeeper got a lot of money and immediately went out to find someone to do something. Soon after, the so-called martial arts people in Bianliang City, that is, people who relied on their skills to make a living, got the news. Who could kill Su?
Shi, even if he can hurt Su Shi, he will be rewarded with a lot of silver coins.
Among them, those who kill Su Shi can get 10,000 guan, and those who hurt Su Shi can get anywhere from 1,000 to 3,000 guan.
In the eyes of the nobles, this money is nothing, just a few bottles of perfume. But for those who can't even fill their stomachs and eat one meal without finishing the next meal, this money is enough for them to live a good life.
, I have no worries about food and clothing for a long time, even for a lifetime.

Bianliang City Post House.
Liu Liufu was listening attentively to the news from his confidants.
As an important minister of the Liao Kingdom, of course he had a careful understanding of the national conditions of the Song Dynasty and the situation in the court, and his understanding was even clearer than that of ordinary Song people.
It was precisely because of this that he thought that the boy who hit someone might be in bad shape.
But this is what he likes to see. What he likes are those Song officials who are afraid of the Liao Kingdom, and Song officials like Su Shi, who ignore without reservation and have no fear written on their faces, are very deep in his heart.
