Chapter 135: The Queen Mother
Lord Lu, since you and the Queen Mother can trust Song, then I will take this matter, after all, we are all for the Great Song Dynasty, for the sake of the country and the people. ”
Lu You nodded, he took a sip of spirits, and sighed: "That day, I thought that Tang and Wu would be taken down together, but I didn't know that they were killed by this surnamed Qiu, this person is completely possible that he was ordered by Tang and Wu, otherwise how dare he kill a second-grade official?"
At the same time, he must have obtained some benefits, such as promotion, wealth, etc., and perhaps a young woman like Emperor Lizong.
Lu You mentioned this, and Song Ci also remembered Jia Yidao, this person is not simple, he is so anxious in his teens, if he can't serve the court in the future, he will become a big disaster.
Especially after Emperor Lizong had a concubine, he was entangled in Concubine Jia's bedroom almost all day long, which Song Ci, who was far away in Xianghe, had also heard.
This is definitely not good news for the Great Song Dynasty, since ancient times, how many emperors, how many dynasties have not perished with women in the hands?
"Lord Lu, I don't know how much you know about this Jia Guifei?"
Lu You was even more helpless, and suddenly took a sip of strong wine and said, "Concubine Jia? Hehe, as far as Lu knows, this person was kidnapped from the street by Tang Hui and Wu Xi, and was originally the daughter born to Shi Jia Shi and his concubine, but after Jia Shi died, he flew on the branch and became a phoenix. ”
Song Ci already knew this, but what he didn't expect was that this person was still kidnapped on the street, and it was also done by Tang and Wu, no wonder when Cao Lihong died that day, Emperor Lizong did not follow the case to investigate, it turned out that there was such a relationship.
These two people are fearless, it seems that they expected to have the support of Concubine Jia, otherwise...
Song Ci and Lu You touched their wine glasses, and smiled bitterly on their faces, "Lord Lu, you would never have thought that the crickets that made countless people crazy in Changting County a few days ago were brought out by this Jia Guifei's younger brother!"
Lu You nodded, he already knew a lot.
"This son's name is Jia Yidao, it's really not simple, eleven or twelve-year-old dolls can play with the people of a county town, it's sighing."
"Now that his sister has become Jia Guifei again, do you think it will be easy for this son in the future?
Lu You didn't know this problem, and he didn't know what to do next, but fortunately, the Queen Mother had already ordered herself to go to this Nanhe County to investigate, as long as there was any bad news, everything would be suppressed in advance.
The two chatted for a long time, and Lu You handed over some of the witnesses of Zhu Zhi'an's death that day to Song Ci.
"Nephew Song Xian, Lu forgot to tell you that the Queen Mother and her old man ordered you to visit her old man's house as soon as you arrived in Lin'an, it seems that she has something to say to you.
Song Ci had already written it down, so the two said goodbye, and soon left the mansion, and then went to the Lin'an Palace.
Song Ci handed over these more than ten people to Wencheng Wenwu, they were Zhu Zhi'an's people, and they must have known something and couldn't be killed.
"Wencheng Wenwu, the two of you had better take care of this person, and then wait outside the palace, Song is going to visit the Queen Mother and her old man."
Erru head, ordered the soldiers to control these ten people.
Qin Yue said: "My lord, the Queen Mother and her old man want to see you, does this matter mean that my Great Song Dynasty is heavy and heavy, and it will become clear?"
Song Ci didn't know this question, but it was a good thing after all, and as for what was going on, he didn't know.
"Wencheng Wenwu, you go to Lin'an to find the largest inn, we will live in it tonight, these hundred people follow Song, you can't let them sleep on the streets!"
"Yes, my lord." ”
Before he knew it, he had come to the outside of the palace, Song Ci came with a clear intention, and soon a soldier went to report it, Song Ci waited for a while, and this person returned.
"Lord Song, the Queen Mother is invited, please come with me."
Leaving everyone outside, Song Ci followed this person into the palace, walked for about half an hour, and finally saw her old man in a garden pavilion.
The complexion is better, but there is always a heavy worry on his face, which is caused by worrying about state affairs all day long, unless the Great Song Dynasty resolves the crisis and exterminates the Jin people and Mongolia.
Song Ci went and immediately knelt down and said: "Weichen Song Ci, knock on the Queen Mother, look at the Queen Mother..
As soon as she heard that it was Song Ci, the Queen Mother immediately helped her up and said: "It turned out to be Song Aiqing, it's free, you don't have to shout these useless slogans, others want to kneel when they see the mourning family, but it's you Song Aiqing and Lu Aiqing who are exempted."
Song Ci said: "Thank you Queen Mother, Weichen is late all the way, I hope the Queen Mother will forgive me."
"Song Aiqing, what are you guilty of? The distance between the Xianghe River and the cluster is more than 1,000 miles, and it will be delayed for ten and a half months just to send someone to pass the word, okay Song Aiqing, the mourning family wants you to sit down and talk. ”
"Thank you, Queen Mother." Song Ci sat across from her.
"Song Aiqing, the mourning family already knows that you are currently the chief general of the bandit suppression in the Xianghe area, according to this, the original chief general of the encirclement and suppression, Chen Shixiong, has been killed in battle?"
Song Ci said: "Yes, the Queen Mother, this person can't lead troops, and at the same time, he is too timid, he doesn't do things with his brains, he just wants to cut through the chaos quickly, and the original anti-thief team of tens of thousands has not been won for ten years, which is really sighing."
The Queen Mother's face was overjoyed, "In this way, Song Aiqing has already solved this matter, hasn't she?" Can you tell me how you did that?"
Song Ci paused, and then said: "Back to the Queen Mother, the thieves in the area near the Xianghe River, they were all poor people in the past, but with the inaction of the local magistrate, someone took the lead in making trouble."
"As time went by, there were more and more of these thieves, more and more, and soon they reached thousands, or even tens of thousands.
The Queen Mother slapped the stone table angrily and said angrily: "It's really bold, if you don't take the court in your eyes, the mourning family will order a strict investigation of this matter, no matter what the magistrate did, where he has gone now, the mourning family must find him out."
"Song Aiqing, can you, how did these thieves suppress it?
"Okay, Queen Mother." Song Ci continued: "Once Song arrived at the curtain land, he did not immediately lead troops to encircle and suppress him, but disagreed with Chen Shixiong, and each brought their own people, but the Queen Mother, these thieves didn't really want to go against the court, they just wanted a bowl of rice to eat, and they couldn't get hungry."
"Oh, in this way, Song Death Aiqing will be..."
"Yes, the Queen Mother, in addition to clearing out a team of fierce and evil people, most of them have been Zhao'an, provided that Song gave them food, and at the same time, promised to give each person one or two taels per month."
The Queen Mother understands that encirclement and suppression do not rely on violence, so that there will be more and more anti-thieves, and in the end, the more they will not win the hearts of the people, and if a dynasty loses all the hearts of the people, it will not be far from destruction.
"Song Aiqing, you mean that the Mourning family understands everything, I have to be you are indeed a talent with soldiers, if you go to the border to confront the Jin people, the Mourning family estimates that within three years, my Great Song will be able to destroy them."
Song Ci was silent, is it too late? The Jin people have been fattened, and at this moment they probably have learned that they have deducted all the military salaries they have sent!
He doesn't know what to do, what the Great Song Dynasty lacks now is morale, whether it is the officials of the DPRK and China, or the soldiers on the border, or the common people, as long as they mention the Jin people, they will talk about it, and this fear has been engraved into his bones.
Song Ci said: "Queen Mother, if these second- and third-grade officials in the court don't come to clean up, I'm afraid that the situation in the Great Song Dynasty will not be alleviated, except for the first removal, they are the murderers of the Great Song Dynasty, and Song hates them even more than the Jin people."
The Queen Mother knew this very well, but her brows were deeply locked, "Song Aiqing, this is the reason why the mourning family came to you, after all, you already know about the murder of Zhu Zhi'an, the anti-gold master, and the mourning family knows that Song Aiqing was a criminal officer before, and there are many clues to solve the case, I don't know if I can solve this case?"
"As long as Song Aiqing handles this matter, no matter where you want to go in the future, whether it is to be a criminal officer or return to Xianghe, how about the mourning family to satisfy you?"
Song Ci didn't even think about it, and immediately said: "Song thank the Queen Mother for her trust, since the Queen Mother has spoken, how can Song refuse?" At the same time, I also hope that these officials who betrayed the Great Song Dynasty can be taken down together.
Empress Dowager Tai was finally a little relieved, she knew that Song Ci was invincible in solving the case, and almost no one in the Great Song Dynasty was an opponent.
Song Ci thought of Jia Guifei, and then said: "Queen Mother, there is one more thing that Song doesn't know how to ask, and that is about this Jia Guifei."
The Queen Mother closed her eyes, and her voice seemed to be much tired.
"Song Aiqing is fine, about this Jia family, not only you, but also the mourning family also feels it, it is really not easy to make Shi Jia She's daughter, and at the same time, her younger brother is not an ordinary person."
Song Ci said: "Since the Queen Mother has already learned, why did Emperor Lizong make her a concubine before?" Wouldn't it be better for the Queen Mother to stop this?"
The Queen Mother deeply regretted this, before, she didn't know about it, and it was too late at the moment.
But there is still a J point of hope, that is, to inform Song Lizong that the Jia family will be abolished, and he will be directly driven out of the palace and demoted to a concubine.
"Song Aiqing, originally the emperor still wanted to make this Jia Guifei the queen, if it weren't for the mourning family's desperate obstruction, I'm afraid it would have been successful, this matter about the Jia family will be handled by the mourning family, Song Aiqing, you can be directly responsible for investigating Zhu Zhi'an's death, once you have clues, you can go directly to Lin'an to find the mourning family, don't go to the emperor."
"It's the Queen Mother." Song Cizheng had this intention.
The two chatted for a while, and then Song Ci left and came to the outside of the palace, Wencheng Wenwu had already found an inn, and only Yue Xiaoxiang was still clustered.
