"You don't even have a dough cake, what else do you have in this shop? Sweet and greasy things, I can't get used to it!"

In the "Taibai Restaurant" in the east of Lin'an Mansion, in the private room on the second floor, looking at the shopkeeper with a helpless smile on his face, and Liu Zhengyan with a gloomy face, Miao Fu waved his hand, and the shopkeeper hurriedly retreated.

The door to the private room was then shut, and the sergeants waited outside the door.

"Brother Liu, don't be anxious. Now in this Hangzhou City, there is nothing to want, why bother to meet these people in general. ”

"Brother Liu, that place in Shaanxi has been down, the land of Sanqin, the capital of the emperor, the east flow of Qingwei, the land of dragons and tigers, it is indeed not comparable to Lin'an Mansion. But that's it for now, you're going to be at it. ”

Miao Fu and Fang Xiong's words made Liu Zhengyan also shake his head, wave his hand, and the shopkeeper hurriedly pushed it down.

These arrogant soldiers, no one dares to offend, in case they get angry, they will give you a midnight terror, the official is a bandit, and there is no chance to cry.

"Don't hide it from the two brothers, I've been in Shaanxi for half my life, and all the snacks are pasta, and I can't swallow these southern foods anymore!"

Miao Fu looked around and said in a low voice: "Wang Yuan and Kang Lu, these dog thieves, only know how to accumulate money and prestige all day long, but they can go straight to the sky and listen to the sky. Pity you and my brother, after the door, but to be called by these traitors. Brother Liu, are you willing? ”

Liu Zhengyan said coldly: "What if you are unwilling? Now Wang Yuan is in charge of the Privy Council, and Kang Lu is with the crown prince Zhao Gou, who is in a high position and has heavy troops in his hands. What about you and me?"

Fang Xiong frowned, and sighed: "Gong Liu, these dog thieves are arrogant and lascivious, but they are prosperous in official luck. After the two nobles, listen to their calls, just like the next person, what a real injustice! ”

Miao and Liu are both Jiangmen families, Miao Fu's grandfather Yuan Fengzhong was the commander of the palace, and Miao Fu himself was also the commander of the palace.

Liu Zhengyan's father, Liu Fa, was a strategic envoy to the Xihe Road and the commander of the Western Army. Liu Zhengyan himself is the deputy commander of the right army of the imperial camp, with 3,000 elite soldiers under him. He prides himself on his merits in quelling bandits, but there is no reward. Although Wang Yuan had the grace to promote him, he was still very dissatisfied with Wang Yuan's arrogance and arrogance.

Fang Xiong, a giant businessman in Lin'an Mansion, is bold and generous, and he is generous. came and went, and quickly became familiar with the generals in the army such as Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan.

For Fang Xiong, several Song army generals Liu Guangshi, Zhang Jun, Han Shizhong and others were divided into various places, and the city of Hangzhou was guarded by Miao Fu and others, who were dissatisfied with Wang Yuan and others, and just fanned the flames and weakened the Song court.

"Brother Liu's words are wrong."

Miao Fu also said in a low voice: "Most of the soldiers in your brother army are soldiers from the Northland, and they are also disgusted with these traitors, and they all want to get rid of them as soon as possible. Let's kill Wang Yuan first, and then get rid of the eunuchs, wouldn't we kill two birds with one stone?"

Liu Zhengyan hesitated: "What Brother Miao said is very true. It's just that Wang Yuan is in a high position and has heavy troops in his hands, so it is not easy to get rid of him and Kang Lu. ”

Fang Xiong's heart moved, and sure enough, it played a role, he thought about it a little, and had an idea in his heart.

"Don't worry about Gong Liu. When the time comes, you can attack the east and west, claiming that there are thieves outside, and Liu Gong will come forward and transfer the guards in the palace away. The palace city was empty, and all the officials were there during the dynasty, killing Wang Yuan, and the soldiers were under the imperial city, and the plan was great. ”

Liu Zhengyan was relieved in his heart, nodded and said, "What Brother Fang said is very true, but we have to plan carefully."

Miao Fu said in a low voice: "Liu Gong, at the end of this month, it is the death day of Emperor Shenzong of the previous dynasty, and hundreds of officials will make incense sacrifices, and hundreds of officials will enter the court to listen to the government, and when the next dynasty comes, we will ......."

He approached Liu Zhengyan's ear and whispered, and Liu Zhengyan kept nodding.

After speaking, both of them had solemn faces.

Fang Xiong saw that the two of them were hesitant, and he was secretly anxious in his heart, but his face was silent.

"Miao Gong, if you can kill Wang Yuan and that group of dog eunuchs, the brothers can live a good life, and Miao Gong and Liu Gong can be extremely human ministers. Coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, even if the court wants to punish you and others, I am afraid it will not be easy. ”

Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan, compared to each other, Liu Zhengyan is as fierce as fire and unruly,

And Miao Fu is more than calm, but indecisive and ruthless.

Liu Zhengyan's heart was beating wildly, and he nodded and said, "Brother Miao, time is not waiting for me, the opportunity will not come again, let's do it!"

Miao Fu nodded heavily, slammed his fist on the table, and said in a deep voice: "Damn the ball is facing up, it won't die for thousands of years!" Kill Wang Yuan, remove the eunuchs, and Qingjun's side, and this is the left and right!"

Fang Xiong returned to his residence, thinking about what was about to happen, and couldn't sleep for a long time.

If the vitality of the Great Song Dynasty can be greatly damaged, it is best to collapse, which will be of great benefit to Wang Song, and the Jiangnan Intelligence Office of the Jiyi Division will also make great contributions.

As for him Fang Xiong himself, he will definitely soar.

A small place lurking in the crowd was clearly not enough to satisfy his appetite.

The matter is serious, and it must be reported to the Ji Yi Division, which is the rule of the intelligence department, and the military order is strict. And the safest way is to notify Li Bao in case of emergency.

Fang Xiong sat down on the chair and hesitated for a long time before he spread out the pen and paper and wrote.

On March 26, the fourth year of the Great Song Dynasty, Lin'an Mansion was in Miyagi.

The crown prince Zhao Gou, the ministers of the imperial court, Kang Yunzhi, the governor of Hangzhou, and even the sickly Daojun Emperor Zhao Ji all appeared on the smoky and mottled city wall at this moment.

Zhao Ji sat on a chair, wearing a cyan robe, with a thick cotton blanket on his knees, his scorched face with prominent cheekbones and sunken eye sockets, completely devoid of the Taoist demeanor of the past.

Since the Song dynasty moved south, the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty finally found sustenance between the wine, the princes were born one by one, and Taoism was finally abandoned.

On the ground of the city wall on the side of everyone, there were dozens of flesh-and-blood human heads, one of which was the head of the privy envoy Wang Yuan.

"Miao Qing's family, Liu Qing's family, Your Majesty asked me to ask you, the court treats you well, why did you two kill the ministers of the court in vain and lead troops to rebel?"

Zhao Gou forced composure, walked to the city wall, and looked down by the battlement.

Under the city walls, densely packed, stood full of sergeants with guns and knives.

"Your Highness, I want to see Your Majesty!"

Miao Fu raised his sword and went straight to the sky, and the sergeants behind him were in unison, holding swords and guns, and shouted loudly together: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

Zhao Ji glanced at Zhao Gou coldly, and said softly: "Look at what you pamper!"

"It's all Weichen's, please punish Your Majesty."

Zhao Gou's heart was shocked, and he was about to bow down, but he heard Zhao Ji say, "Help me up!"

Zhao Gou hurriedly stepped forward and helped Zhao Ji up with Cao Xun.

Seeing Zhao Ji appear by the city wall, Miao Fu immediately threw away the steel knife in his hand, and together with the army, the mountain shouted down, and shouted loudly: "Weichen see Your Majesty!"

Zhao Ji nodded slightly, and shouted as loudly as he could: "Ladies and gentlemen, if you have any grievances, come one by one, I will definitely make decisions for you."

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince trusts the treacherous and troubles the court. Wang Boyan was mediocre and misled the country, but he was in a high position and was not exiled. Wang Yuan has no talent and no virtue, but because of his friendship with Kang Xu, he got such a high position as a privy envoy, which really makes the soldiers feel cold!"

After Miao Fu finished speaking, Liu Zhengyan also shouted on the side: "Your Majesty, Wang Yuan has misled the country and the people, and has been killed by the soldiers. The eunuch did evil and asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to kill Kang Lu, Lan Gui, and Zeng Xue to thank the three armies. ”

Cao Xun whispered in Zhao Ji's ear: "The three people in Liu Zhengyan's mouth are all close ministers and eunuchs of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and they have contributed a lot."

Kang Lu, Lan Gui, and Zeng Xue stood up tremblingly, stepped forward and knelt on the ground, and everyone's faces were like earth.

Kang Lu kowtowed and wept: "Your Majesty, please kill the minions to thank the world, the minions die without complaint!"

Zhao Ji's eyes turned to Zhao Gou, and said softly: "Prince, how do you say this matter should be resolved?"

"Your Majesty, Kang Lu and the others are loyal, although they have lost their morality, they can be degraded and exiled. As for Wang Boyan, he can be dismissed as a scholar of the Guanwen Temple and let him know Hongzhou, I wonder what His Majesty thinks?"

Zhao Ji frowned, so perfunctory, how could the arrogant soldiers and fierce generals below give up.

"Your Majesty said that he would belittle Kanglu, Lan Gui, and Zeng Xue and exile them to the island. Wang Boyan was demoted to the governor of Hongzhou. Generals, quickly retreat and return to the barracks!"

Sure enough, as soon as Cao Xun's words came out, the sergeants below made a loud noise and did not retreat.

"Your Majesty, what the ministers and others do today is all for the sake of the Great Song Dynasty. I hope that Your Majesty will put the common people in the world first and kill Kang Lu and others, otherwise it will be difficult for the soldiers to feel at ease!"

"I know that the generals are loyal and righteous, and I appointed Miao Fu as the commander of the imperial camp and Liu Zhengyan as the deputy commander of the imperial camp. The other sergeants were not guilty. As for Kang Lu and others, they have their own Dali Temple to interrogate, and the generals, let's hurry back. ”

After Zhao Ji finished speaking, his face was already flushed, and he was out of breath. Cao Xun hurriedly patted lightly, and Zhao Gou next to him also comforted him.

"Your Majesty, if you just want to be promoted, the minister only needs to bribe the eunuchs, so why come here and make a big move?"

Miao Fu said coldly: "Your Majesty, please kill Kang Lu and other thieves, and the ministers will ask for guilt!"

Liu Zhengyan also shouted: "Please Your Majesty kill Kang Lu and others to thank the world!"

Zhao Ji's face was pale, he closed his eyes lightly, and stopped talking.

"Your Majesty, forgive your courage!"

On the city wall, Ximeng, the pacification division of Zhejiang Xi, knelt down and spoke seriously.

"Your Majesty, the anger of the people is hard to commit, and if you don't get rid of the eunuchs, the disaster will not be quelled. Why did Your Majesty fight against the armies for the sake of a few people? ”

Zhao Ji looked at Zhao Gou, but did not speak.

"Come on, hang Kang Lu and the others down the city with bamboo baskets and hand them over to the rebels!"

Zhao Gou saw that Zhao Ji's face was sinking like water, his heart was pounding, and he hurriedly ordered: "Quickly hand over the three of Kang Lu to the rebels!"

"Your Majesty is gracious, Your Highness is gracious!"

Kang Lu and the others trembled, their faces were full of snot and tears, and they knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing.

The soldiers came forward and tied up the three of them like rice dumplings, put them in baskets, and scattered them into the city.

"Traitor, you also have today!"

Swords and guns were raised, flesh and blood flew sideways, and soon, the flesh and blood of the three Kang Lu were blurred, and their heads were also cut off and placed in the open space under the city wall.

Miao, Liu and the others looked at each other, and shouted under the city again: "Your Majesty, the prince is immoral, please abolish the prince and set up another crown prince!"

There was silence on the walls. Zhao Gou knelt down, his face full of tears, and he kowtowed.

"Your Majesty, please abolish the ministers and take the heart of the soldiers under the city."

Everyone was silent, and after a while, Zhao Ji sighed and slowly spoke.

"Cao Xun, you tell the soldiers under the city that I agree to their request, and the crown prince Zhao Gode is not worthy of the position, and he is now removed from the position of prince. The imperial court will then issue an edict to announce it to the world. The army retreated quickly, and it was not allowed to make noise in the forbidden area, otherwise the military law would be ruthless. ”

The arrogance at the head of the city made the soldiers under the city angry, and the situation became more and more intense.

"Your Majesty is riddled with illnesses and cannot govern the affairs of the imperial court. The country cannot be without a king for a day, please make an order immediately, abdicate and make way for the virtuous, and set up a new king!"

Liu Zhengyan shouted even louder, acting like forcing the palace.

"Your Majesty reprimanded the righteous soldiers, approached the treacherous, lost the will of the plaything, indulged in the defeat, appointed the "six thieves" traitorous ministers, changed the ancestral law at will, and vainly tried to join forces with the Jurchens to destroy Liao, which caused today's situation, shouldn't Your Majesty abdicate to thank the world?"

The army gathered under the city gates, and the crowd was excited. The silence on the walls of the city made the anger of the army soar, and some people brandished swords and guns, and shouted to enter the city.

Liu Zhengyan's words are more direct and more vicious. The hundred officials on the city wall were dumbfounded and silent, and the seriously ill Zhao Ji was flushed, but he couldn't speak.

How dare these martial artists do this, do they still have the Son of Heaven in their eyes, and the Great Song Dynasty?

Could it be that they were also brainwashed by Wang Song's newspaper?
