Chapter 427: What if you don't give face!?
Go home.
Wang Chen was thinking all the way.
He clearly knew a few things, and with the force at hand, coupled with the economic strength of modern society, it was no longer a problem to flatten the Song Dynasty.
However, as I said before, if the Song Dynasty is flattened, it will take a long time to rebuild it in the future, and even decades of effort will be required to restore it to its current scale, which is also one of the fundamental reasons why Wang Chen did not directly kill Zhao Kuangyin.
Lao Zhao can't be killed, so what about Zhao Er?
Logically speaking, it's easy to find the right opportunity to shoot with a sniper rifle.
But if you really kill Zhao Er, what will be the consequences?
Don't think about it, it must be Zhao Dezhao's family that is dominant, and there is almost no suspense about succeeding to the throne, and can Zhao Dezhao be controlled by Wang Chen?
Obviously, no.
So, can you kill Zhao Dezhao together?
Theoretically, it is also possible, after all, as soon as Zhao Er and Zhao Dezhao died, only Zhao Yanmei and Zhao Defang were left as the heirs to the throne.
Later, with the development of the times, "thorns" were developed.
So what's the difference between a confession and a thorn?
The shape and title of the confession are more solemn, and they are all used for the bottom to the top, with obvious hierarchical colors, which is an ancient big business card. The content and shape of the thorn are simple and cordial, although there are also "lower official thorns" used for the lower to the top, but it is mainly used among the scholars, and it is a small business card with the name of Tongjueli.
That is to say, there are two possibilities for the other party to use stabbing to disobey, first, the social status is equivalent to Wang Chen, and second, it is cordial.
Wang Chen carefully analyzed, now he is a national teacher, in terms of rank, belongs to the first grade, looking at the entire imperial court, in addition to the emperor, the prince and the queen mother in the palace, the queen, etc., whether it is the prime minister, the privy envoy, etc., the social status is comparable to him, because the Song Dynasty is a first-class official, not a permanent position.
Then, if it is the first possibility, the person who worships the name assassin is likely to be a first-class member of the imperial court.
As for the second possibility, Wang Chen doesn't have much to do with Bianjing, he thinks it's unlikely.
However, when he opened the name thorn and took a look, he looked at the old butler in surprise, "Mr. Qu, what does the person look like, how old is it?"
Mr. Qu recalled, "It looks like a person, about fifty years old, and he looks burly. ”
In your fifties?
Big-looking?
Wang Chen looked at the content of the visit on the famous thorn and was silent for a long time, and it was written like this: Bianjing Sanren Jiaozuo, Shen, the kingdom's division will adjudicate the decree, the document is as before, respectfully, on May 11, the ninth year of Kaibao, Sanren Jiaozuo, Mu.
Scattered people?
I've never heard of this person.
Wang Chen frowned slightly, didn't say anything more to Mr. Qu, thought about it, and finally decided to go to the appointment.
……
It's quite fateful to say.
Wang Chen returned to Bianjing East City.
He asked the driver to follow the address to a relatively remote farmhouse courtyard.
At the door, Wang Chen did not get out of the car directly and went in, but opened the curtain and looked outside, after reading it, he felt a little funny, because in such a remote place, and it was close to night, there were a few men who bought food and groceries, and fools knew that these people were disguised.
He shook his head slightly, but got out of the carriage anyway.
When he came to the door, there was a porter who seemed to be old and dizzy, and immediately greeted Wang Chen respectfully.
Go inside.
Walk through a small vegetable garden.
Come to the innermost room.
The porter pushed open the door, stretched out his hand and said, "National teacher, please." ”
Wang Chen hummed and walked in across the threshold.
house.
As soon as he walked in, he heard a burst of laughter, "Haha, the teacher hasn't seen you for a long time, but the demeanor is still the same." ”
Wang Chen looked sideways and was stunned for a moment, this person has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and is about 1.75 meters tall, isn't it Zhao Dezhao, the eldest son of Zhao Kuangyin, who once had a relationship?
I have to mention here that Zhao Dezhao was born to Zhao Kuangyin's original wife and He's family, and he belongs to the son-in-law, and Zhao Defang's mother is likely to be an ordinary concubine, or even a palace maid, who belongs to the concubine, naturally, Zhao Defang has never felt that he has the right to inherit the throne.
Next to Zhao Dezhao, there is also a thin old man in his seventies, and this person Wang Chen also knows, who is Zhao Kuangyin's confidant and Jiao Jixun of Xijing Zhaoyin.
What's going on with the two of them?
The thoughts in Wang Chen's mind were flying, but there was already a smile on his face, and he said, "I've seen the King of Wugong County, and I've seen General Jiao." After a pause, he said humbly to Zhao Dezhao, "I don't dare to take the name of the teacher, I don't dare to take it." ”
Speaking of which, Zhao Dezhao is one or two years older than Wang Chen, and he looks very polite and virtuous: "The teacher is serious, you are the arithmetic teacher of my imperial brother Defang, and naturally you are also my teacher of Dezhao." ”
Wang Chen said a few more words, but Zhao Dezhao always called him a teacher.
In the end, Wang Chen had no choice but to acquiesce.
After the greetings, Zhao Dezhao took the initiative to invite Wang Chen to sit down at the small round table, on which seven or eight exquisite side dishes were placed, as well as two jade pots of small wine.
Jiao Jixun smiled, revealing a few remaining gray and yellow front teeth, and stretched out his hand and said: "The national teacher is here, but Dezhao and I can only entertain with coarse tea and light rice, please forgive me." ”
"So many dishes are not coarse tea and light rice. Wang Chen looked at Jiao Jixun meaningfully, "General, I'm surprised that you appeared here." ”
Zhao Dezhao didn't say anything more except for being modest at the beginning.
On the contrary, Jiao Jixun, who hadn't spoken much before, said with a smile: "I think the national teacher should not be surprised." Saying that, he also commanded Zhao Dezhao, "Dezhao, quickly pour wine for your teacher." ”
"Yes. Zhao Dezhao was very obedient, picked up the wine jug and took the initiative to pour wine for Wang Chen.
Wang Chen didn't stop it, knowing that the next two had something to say, and today's protagonist is not Zhao Dezhao, but Jiao Jixun.
After pouring the wine, Jiao Jixun took the initiative to touch the cup with Wang Chen, and after drinking it all, he said slowly: "Does the national teacher know that King Wuyue entered Beijing to see His Majesty in February this year?"
Wang Chen knew about this matter that last year, Qian Yu, the king of Wuyue, was invited by Zhao Kuangyin to send troops to join the Northern Song Dynasty in Jinling of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and later Li Yu was captured, so he nodded and said, "I know." ”
Jiao Jixun took a piece of mutton with chopsticks, and said with a smile: "Does the national teacher know who presided over this welcoming ceremony?"
Wang Chen really didn't know about this matter, he had already left Bianjing and returned to Jinghai to take up his post, "I don't know." ”
Jiao Jixun pointed at Zhao Dezhao, who was silent, "Your Majesty arranged Dezhao." ”
"Huh?" Wang Chen was stunned for a moment.
Although he had a premonition that Zhao Kuangyin wanted Zhao Dezhao to succeed him, Wang Chen couldn't be too sure, the main reason was that in the past twelve years, Zhao Kuangyin had never let Zhao Dezhao show his face in front of everyone, let alone treat political affairs as a prince, and it was precisely because of this that Zhao Guangyi always felt that he was a prince, and he formed a gang to run a lot of power.
But now listening to Jiao Jixun say this, Wang Chen immediately felt unusual, Zhao Kuangyin uncharacteristically deliberately let Zhao Dezhao, who had been hidden in the snow for 12 years, suddenly appear in front of everyone, and also presided over the welcome of Wuyue King Qian Yu, this matter itself has extraordinary political significance, the court attaches great importance to Qian Yu entering Beijing to meet the court, and acting as a messenger to greet him is a very stylish thing.
Later, the last emperor of Shu Meng Chang was escorted to the capital as a "prisoner of war", Zhao Kuangyin sent Zhao Guangyi to greet him, this time no matter in terms of political influence or job arrangement, it was appropriate to send Zhao Guangyi to meet Qian Yu again, but the result was unexpected, it was actually Zhao Dezhao who became the representative of the Song Dynasty.
In this way, Zhao Dezhao naturally became the focus of attention of the Manchu civil and military, and it was he, not his uncle Zhao Guangyi, who first accepted the salute from the foreign vassal on behalf of the Great Song government, what does this mean?
It means that Zhao Kuangyin is already preparing for Zhao Dezhao to succeed to the throne!
Of course, such a diplomatic event to welcome foreign securities leaders alone is not enough for Zhao Dezhao to rise all of a sudden.
Wang Chen naturally understood in his heart.
Sure enough, Jiao Jixun said again: "In March this year, Your Majesty went to Luoyang, Xijing, to worship heaven and earth, and proposed to move the capital from Kaifeng to Luoyang, what does the national teacher think?"
Wang Chen smiled, smiled very happily and said, "I didn't see it much." ”
said this in his mouth, but sighed in his heart, no wonder it is recorded in the wild history that Zhao Guangyi will be in a hurry with Zhao Kuangyin this year, it turns out that this is the case.
Many people may not understand the meaning of moving the capital.
Let's put it this way, before Zhao Dezhao became the governor of Kaifeng, who had been serving as Jingzhao Yin? That's right, it was Zhao Guangyi, Zhao Er had been operating in Kaifeng for more than ten years, and all the top and bottom were his people, but now Lao Zhao wants to move this capital to Luoyang, Xijing, and set up a new political management body, so who is the most beneficial in this situation?
It must be Zhao Dezhao!
It can be said that Lao Zhao has already begun to shuffle Zhao Guangyi's forces.
This is equivalent to cutting Zhao Er's right-hand man.
No wonder, no wonder Lao Zhao was a little unwell, Zhao Guangyi immediately found himself and forced him to stand, Wang Chen now understands, it turns out that Zhao Guangyi's situation has reached the point of urgency, once Zhao Kuangyin really succeeds in moving the capital, then Zhao Guangyi will not have any possibility of inheriting the throne.
Jiao Jixun's cloudy eyes bloomed with endless essence, "The national teacher really didn't see it much?"
Wang Chen knew that Jiao Jixun was also forcing himself to stand, to tell the truth, Wang Chen really wanted to kill this old man with one shot now, a little annoying, but he knew that Jiao Jixun was one of Zhao Dezhao's biggest helpers, once it was solved, it would be Zhao Guangyi, so he couldn't kill him for the time being, so he asked rhetorically: "What does the general think I should think?"
Jiao Jixun smiled and pointed at Zhao Dezhao, "The national teacher is a true immortal in the sky, the great city god who protects the country, can you see if Dezhao has the appearance of purple qi coming from the east?"
Yes, it is another purpose with Zhao Guangyi.
wants to use his own mouth to "prove" that Zhao Dezhao is the first heir to the throne in accordance with the will of heaven.
How could Wang Chen let go, and said lightly: "All the royal bloodlines are born with the appearance of purple qi coming from the east, and I forgive my clumsiness, I can't see anything else." ”
The atmosphere cooled down!
Jiao Jixun's eyes narrowed suddenly!
Zhao Dezhao, who was originally smiling, also had a cold face!
Wang Chen was calm, not moved at all, stood up and arched his hand and said: "Thank you for the hospitality, Wang has some discomfort in his abdomen, so he will leave first." With that, he turned and walked away.
Jiao Jixun's voice came from behind, "Slow!"
Wang Chen turned his head to look, "Is there anything else going on with the general?"
Jiao Jixun stood up and sneered: "The national teacher really can't see it?"
Wang Chen glanced at Zhao Dezhao, who was still sitting, retracted his eyes, and said categorically: "I'm sure and certain, I can't see it!"
"Good, good, good. Jiao Jixun laughed angrily, stretched out his hand and said, "Then the national teacher, please, you can be careful on the way back." ”
Threatening buddy?
Hehe, you old thing I don't know how to die!
Wang Chen didn't pay attention to this old guy anymore, pouted, and said in his heart, bah, Zhao Guangyi's old man gave some face, after all, the power is huge, how many are you two, are you two more powerful, are you more powerful than one-tenth of Zhao Guangyi?
He himself has no will to support Zhao Dezhao, so what if he doesn't give face!?
By the way, Jiao Jixun, you dare to threaten me, right?
Okay, dude will make you regret it tonight!
Wang Chen decided to give Jiao Jixun some color to see, what cats and dogs dare to bully me?
