Chapter 52: The Merciful Emperor

The Shi brothers are indeed very miserable, Yun Zheng came out of the Buhua Hall and saw Shi Zhongxin and his younger brother Shi Daxin kneeling on the porch of the vertical arch hall, it seemed that they had been kneeling for a while, their faces were pale from the cold wind, but they didn't dare to move.

"See, the treatment is different, the old Shi brothers are kneeling in the cold wind, but those damn civil officials are kneeling in the hall, this is the difference." Wang Zhe stabbed Yun Zheng with his arm, and Nunu asked him to look at Lu Gong, who was kneeling in the main hall, and Bao Zheng, who was standing aside with his eyes closed and a sad face.

Yun Zheng ignored the people in the hall, but took out his hand cage from his sleeve and threw it to Shi Zhongxin, who looked up and begged him, Wang Zhe sighed and threw his hand cage to Shi Daxin, the hands of the two brothers were already frozen blue because they were pressed on the bluestone slab full of frost flowers, and the meaning of giving them the hand cage was that they would not stand idly by.

The Shi brothers and brothers arched their hands to Yun Zheng and Wang Zhe gratefully, put the hand cage they threw into their arms, and still knelt there, saying that they were very grateful to the two of them for their help in danger.

As the ministers stepped into the door of the main hall one after another, Lu Gong was almost ashamed of himself, Pang Ji walked up to him and shouted: "Dereliction of duty is dereliction of duty, and it is to start over again, when you are ashamed and brave." Shame today is not the glory of the day after tomorrow. ”

Lu Gong bowed his hand and thanked him, and sure enough, he raised his head, and the guilt on his face was swept away, as if others were standing and kneeling with him, there was no difference, and the change in an instant made Yun Zheng throw himself to the ground with the five bodies that his senior brother admired.

Yun Zheng saw Lu Gongzhu looking at him, and nodded hurriedly, Lu Gongzhu's heart seemed to be relaxed all of a sudden, and he also nodded towards Yun Zheng. He already understood that Yun Zheng, who had always been difficult, would not be difficult this time.

Zhao Zhen coughed violently, slamming the dragon chair, and his voice was a little out of tune.

"Who can tell me what the hell is going on? The emperor of Nuoda guarded no less than 50,000 people. The mansions of the eleven ministers were burned overnight, the school palace was robbed, and the dignified Kaifeng Mansion was almost swallowed by Zhu Rong. The three yas are like a fictitious. The corpse of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses is on it, and Kaifeng Mansion is eaten by thieves, which is a shame and shame that has never been seen since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty. ”

The emperor interrogated the prime minister in the court, which is very rare, usually at this time the prime minister will say a word that he is incapable of resigning, and then the emperor's anger will be slightly restrained, and a few words of encouragement will be officially discussed.

But today is different. Pang Ji did not ask for guilt, but directly hugged Beban out of the class and said: "Qi Xià, everyone in the world knows a truth, that is, arrows are shot from one direction, as long as the iron is a wall, you can guard against arrows shot from this direction." If the arrows don't have a direction, then build an iron house to prevent the arrows from harming us.

We all understand this simple truth, but in reality, what we use to block arrows is a shield, and there is no strong fortress like an iron house for us to use, since we use a shield, there will inevitably be omissions.

Zhang Jun's thief had evil thoughts because the post assignment was not in line with his wishes, and finally caused such a tragedy. The minister thought that the Ministry of War did not identify the traitor in time, and it was at fault, and Sanya, as a senior official, did not know people, and the corpse was also guilty, and Zhang Jun's thief had died in the fire. When the body is exposed for three days, it is an example. ”

Zhao Zhen gritted his teeth and said, "Do you think Zhang Jun is the first evil?" ”

The emperor's words were very heartfelt, no one dared to interject, everyone else lowered their heads, only Yun Zheng stretched his neck to look at King Pu who was standing in front, and found that the old guy could indeed hold on. Not only did he stand very steadily, but the expression on this guy's face from the side seemed to be the same hatred, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.

It seems that to be a traitor, you need to have a firm heart to succeed, Yun Zheng feels that his cultivation is not enough, and he can't do this kind of demeanor of others, many times he relies on gags to avoid the past, and the level is more than one grade lower, if he wants to become an old traitor, he has to strengthen his cultivation.

Whether it is Pang Ji's shameless remarks just now, or the performance of the Shi brothers just now, or Wang Zhe's gossip, or King Pu's breezy expression, it is enough for Yun Zheng to learn for a while.

Han Qi came out of the class and said: "Qi Xià, I currently know from those captured thieves that Zhang Jun is the only culprit. ”

Zhao Zhen laughed miserably and said: "My Great Song Dynasty always has this, that kind of thing can't be solved, this time it is to burn the minister's mansion and the Guozijian, Kaifeng Mansion, maybe the fire will affect the palace next time." The affairs of the Great Song Dynasty can't always be so muddy, if it goes on like this, it will not be able to live one day. In that case, let me find out. ”

Bao Zheng knelt down straight with his hand in his hand and said: "This is Weichen's incompetence, please ask Your Majesty to dismiss Weichen and take the title as a latecomer!" ”

Yun Zheng stared wide-eyed at the confrontation between the courtiers and the king in the Great Song Dynasty, and sighed, as Bao Zheng knelt down, a large group of officials on the gold brick knelt down and asked the emperor to punish the crime, this is also a fart crime, this is the rhythm of planning to make the emperor angry to death, seeing Zhao Zhen's face pale and shaky, Yun Zheng felt that the emperor was very pitiful.

Zhao Zhen noticed Yun Zheng's different expression, and forced back the anger in his heart and asked, "Wen Xinhou has always been unique, I don't know if there is a miracle cure for my heart disease?" ”

Seeing that everyone's eyes were focused on him, especially Pang Ji's numb, chainsaw-like eyes, the majesty of the prime minister was not empty and white-toothed, since he had been put on the fire by Zhao Zhen to barbecue, Yun Zheng had no choice but to speak.

"Qi Gong Xià, although Wei Chen was given the honor of the first person in the third class by His Majesty's grace, in fact, he is still a military minister, since he is a military minister, Wei Chen will only be a solution for martial artists."

Zhao Zhen saw that Yun Zheng did not shirk, his pale face had some blood, and said warmly: "Aiqing is a famous soldier in the past, and the way to say it will naturally not be wrong, you might as well say it and let me know a little bit about it." ”

Yun Zheng arched his hand and said: "Everything has cause and effect, if there is such a problem in the army commanded by Wechen, Wechen will not hesitate to be responsible for fire prevention, patrol the camp, and cut off the officers and soldiers on duty to prevent future troubles."

There must be something wronged in this, but the two powers are lighter, so the wronged will also be wronged, and only when the war is over will the real investigation begin, give the wronged a certain amount of compensation, and pursue the remaining sins of the real murderer.

This method is naturally not applicable to the court, if it is as indiscriminate as the army, isn't the law of my Great Song Dynasty like child's play? But Weichen thought that this matter must be investigated.

It's not because Wechen's house was burned down that he wanted to find out the murderer, but Wechen found from a military point of view that as long as the time is right, supplemented by appropriate means, Tokyo, the emperor, does have the possibility of being burned down by a fire, Wechen checked the climate of Tokyo and found that every spring when the sun stops and the sun is born, there will be a southeast wind, such a strong wind will blow for at least seven days, everyone, just imagine, if last night's fire happened in the spring, hehehe, the disaster of Tokyo City will come.

So Weichen thinks that it doesn't matter who to deal with and how to deal with it, Pang Xiang is reasonable, only a thousand days to be a thief, how can there be a thousand days to prevent thieves, we only ask who is the person who set the fire? There is no impermeable wall in the world, we will find out if we check slowly, and Weichen thinks that Zhang Jun is probably not dead, but the Great Song Dynasty may no longer have a foothold for him, and the places he can go to are none other than Liao, Western Xia, Goryeo, Wa, or overseas countries.

The minister thought that it was impossible for the Liao State, if he went to the Liao State, the Liao State was in constant trouble at the moment, Yelu Hongji would definitely send him to Tokyo with his hands tied, and it was impossible to go to the Western Xia, hehe, Weichen knew a lot about the Western Xia people, and they would not do anything that was not beneficial, and the Western Xia people would only arrest him and sell him to His Majesty at a high price.

Therefore, Wechen thought that if His Majesty sent people to the sea port to strictly investigate, there would be a harvest, and if he focused on visiting the Japanese mission, there would definitely be greater discoveries, and Wechen always believed that the disappearance and death of young people was always related to the Japanese people, and the cause of the Tokyo fire was caused by the disappearance of young people. ”

After Yun Zheng finished speaking, he retreated to the court, ignoring the surprised gazes of Pang Ji and others, Yun Zheng did not take the opportunity to fall into the well, which made them very strange, and shifted the emperor's attention to the murderer, instead of focusing on the court, this is a good thing, after all, Pang Ji and others also want to find out who this evil person is.

Zhao Zhen glanced at Chen Lin on the side, and Chen Lin disappeared behind the curtain.

The emperor saw that Chen Lin was gone, so he nodded and said: "The words of the Qing family do have the effect of punishing the former and the latter, even if I am not a martial emperor, I also have the murderous intent of the martial emperor, since the military patrol shop is no longer useful, then all the layoffs will be removed, and the order will be ordered to wait for Zhou Tong to take over immediately, and select good people from the forbidden army to reorganize the military patrol shop, and the military patrol shop personnel who made a disturbance this time will be cut off."

Shi Zhongxin has no knowledge of people, and ordered Ge to go to the post of inspection of the Zhongcheng Soldiers and Horses Division, which was taken over by Pan Yu, Shi Daxin's royal majesty was not strict, and he ordered to treat the crime to mention the guards and the pro-army Ma Jun Division, the Ministry of Officials and the Department of Selection, and the Ministry of War was stupid and incompetent. ”

Yun Zheng sighed in his heart, the emperor is not bold enough, if the emperor can remove the Shi family brothers from office and take away the title, Bao Zheng will go to the military state, and then send Lu Gongzhu to prison for questioning, and finally cut off the heads of all the military patrol personnel, and distribute the hair, this is what the emperor should do.

Instead of being benevolent and perfunctory, taking out the anger of the two unlucky eggs sent by the civil officials, isn't the most common sentence of the emperor not to quit the noon gate and behead something?
