Chapter 273: The Emperor's Grace is Mighty
Wu Song and the others were suspicious, not knowing how Song Huizong could have a holy decree in such a short period of time, and outsiders were shouting again: "Wu Song is not going to accept the decree quickly!" ”
Since Pan Jinlian already has a whereabouts, Wu Song is now determined in his heart, and he is not so resistant to such a thing. Besides, I also want to know what this latest will is.
So he came out, and when he saw those who had come to give the message, he was astonished again. It turned out that the one who came back to deliver the decree was actually Tong Guan!
You must know that at this time, although Tong Guan was a eunuch, he commanded the army, fought in the south and the north, and leaned towards the government and the opposition, and he was already a powerful minister. Sending an edict on behalf of the emperor is such a thing, and it is not his turn to do it anyway.
However, he actually brought the emperor's will in person. Due to his high position and power, he was accompanied by many people, and was a small army of well-equipped people.
Could it be that because Wu Song repeatedly resisted the decree, Song Huizong sent Tong Guan to personally come out and capture Wu Song?
Wu Song was vigilant. But when he looked at Tong Guan, there was not much anger on his face. However, this kind of treacherous and cunning traitor and eunuch has already been able to be happy and angry. The meaning of his coming cannot be inferred from his expression alone.
Wu Song secretly thought about countermeasures. At this time, the huge eunuch also followed him out, and when he saw Tong Guan, he hurriedly put on a very humble demeanor. Tong Guan saw the huge eunuch, but his expression was very cold, and said: "Li Yan, the emperor has a new will, your will, just take it back!" ”
When Wu Song heard the word "Li Yan", he felt a gordon in his heart. Unexpectedly, this fat eunuch was actually Li Yan.
As a traverser, Wu Song read books in later generations and vaguely remembered that Li Yan was also a great eunuch in the Song Huizong period, and he was also one of the famous traitors in history, and Cai Jing, Wang Hao, Tong Guan, Liang Shicheng, Zhu Mian, etc., were called the "six thieves" of the Northern Song Dynasty.
However, there is also a theory that the other person in the "Six Thieves" is actually Li Bangyan, not Li Yan. But this Li Yan is also a big traitor, but there is no doubt about it.
Wu Song was still speculating at first whether he would be the eunuch who wrote the "Sunflower Treasure Book". However, "Sunflower Treasure Book" is extremely vicious and harmful, and it is reasonable to say that it is from the hands of a eunuch with a bad heart. It's just that although this Li Yan knows martial arts, it is too far behind compared to the martial arts contained in the legendary "Sunflower Treasure Book".
At this time, Li Yan's status among the eunuchs was obviously far inferior to Tong Guan. Therefore, when he saw Tong Guan, his attitude was very humble. As soon as Tong Guan said this, he agreed immediately, glanced at Wu Song, and stepped aside.
Tong Guan's face immediately squeezed out a little smiling expression, and said to Wu Song: "Wu Song, you kid is really capable, I really underestimate you!" ”
Don't say that in the previous life, he knew that Tong Guan was a big traitor, and it was not pleasing to him, in this life, Wu Song had already killed Ma Kui, the secret envoy of Tong Guan's faction in Qinghe County, and took away the "Situ Testament", one of the three strange books that Tong Guan wanted very much, and killed Tong Guan's favorite general during the competition, and the contradictions between the two sides were already irreconcilable.
Hearing Tong Guan's unkind tone, Wu Song didn't need to be patient, and said coldly: "If you have any will, just say it quickly!" ”
Tong Guan seemed to have anticipated Wu Song's attitude, and did not have a seizure, but instead laughed dryly and said, "Wu Song takes the order!" ”
At this time, not only was the Imperial Forest Army brought by Li Yan still beside him, but Tong Guan had brought so many troops, if he didn't want to involve these subordinates in the new forbidden army, even with Fang Jinzhi's help, it would be difficult for Wu Song to escape smoothly.
Let's listen to the will brought by Tong Guan, and see what Song Huizong wants to say when he makes four decrees. Therefore, Wu Song still temporarily put on a posture of receiving orders.
I only heard Tong Guan's sharp voice read out: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said: Wu Song refused to order one after another, and mobilized the new army without authorization, which should have been severely punished." Wei I heard that Wu Songbi bravely saved the people's daughter Pan's Golden Lotus in Qinghe County, and Mu Taizu sent Jingniang's righteousness. The delay in receiving the order and the unauthorized transfer of soldiers was due to the disappearance of Pan, which is understandable. Moreover, Wu Songxun's new forbidden army has made outstanding achievements, and talents are rare. I am extraordinarily gracious, and I will go all out to search and rescue the Pan family in Kaifeng Mansion, Wu Song will not think about it anymore, quickly reorganize the army to suppress bandits, and make meritorious contributions to the crime! Chin this! ”
Considering that Wu Song is a military general, this holy decree has been written in a very easy way to understand. The meaning is: Wu Song repeatedly refused the decree this time, and even mobilized the new forbidden army to find someone in the imperial city without authorization, which was originally a serious crime. However, Wu Song's actions were all to find Pan Jinlian, and Wu Song's action of rescuing Pan Jinlian in Qinghe County was actually a move to learn from Song Taizu to send Jingniang thousands of miles away, so the matter was affectionate and righteous. In addition, Wu Song was meritorious in training the new forbidden army and was a talent, so Emperor Song Huizong was particularly gracious and ordered Kaifeng Mansion to help Wu Song find Pan Jinlian, and temporarily did not pursue Wu Song's crimes, and asked Wu Song to quickly lead his troops to Shuibo Liangshan to suppress bandits and make meritorious contributions.
Speaking of which, it can be regarded as a statement. Because, if Wu Song's behavior of looking for Pan Jinlian is linked to the behavior of Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin sending Jingniang thousands of miles away, the meaning is different. Song Huizong temporarily exempted Wu Song from responsibility, which is reasonable.
It's just that, why did Song Huizong do this?
It is true that after the competition, Song Huizong appreciated Wu Song very much and promoted him exceptionally, but when it comes to trusting and reusing Wu Song, it is obviously far inferior to Gao Yu, Cai Jing and others. What's more, Wu Song failed to resist the decree one after another, and mobilized the army to search for people everywhere in the imperial city without authorization, and even stormed the Gefeng Tower, which was originally something that Song Huizong could not tolerate as an emperor.
Why did Song Huizong open up to Wu Song? Is it really tight because Wu Song's talent is rare? Or is it that Song Huizong Zhao Ji has just promoted Wu Song, and he is embarrassed to immediately punish Wu Song for slapping himself in the face?
At this time, Wu Song couldn't think of so much. As soon as he heard this will, it was Song Huizong who did not pursue himself, and ordered Kaifeng Mansion to help him find Pan Jinlian and let him continue to lead the army to the expedition, which was also an unexpected surprise.
To say, although this Song Huizong is indeed one of the most famous Da Dusk monarchs in history, at least for now, he is quite good for Wu Song.
Wu Song's heart was relieved, and Wang Huan and other soldiers of the new forbidden army were also immediately happy. With such a will, Wu Song naturally had no reason to refuse again. He received the decree and expressed his gratitude to the emperor. Originally, I wanted to show Tong Guan, but Pan Jinlian already had her whereabouts, so she didn't have to work to find it in Kaifeng Mansion. However, my heart moved, and I couldn't help but say nothing.
After Tong Guan passed the decree, he didn't leave immediately, he asked Li Yan to go back with those imperial forest soldiers first, so he squeezed out a few smiles and said to Wu Song: "General Wu, the emperor still has a will!" ”
Damn, and the Holy Decree? This Song Huizong gave Wu Song five holy decrees in a row, isn't it really annoying? Wu Song had to prepare to receive the order again, but Tong Guan said: "There is no need to be polite this time, what I brought was the emperor's message!" ”
