The Imperial Palace of the Great Song Kingdom, in the Imperial Study.

Zhao Ji sat at the desk with an iron face, his hand holding the teacup was trembling, and the green tendons all over his body were beating even more, which really looked a little hideous.

He didn't have the strength anymore, and he didn't want to be angry anymore.

Zhao Ji was afraid that if he started a fire like this again, sooner or later he would rupture his cerebral blood vessels and die young.

However, the mountains of documents piled up on the table in front of him, and the trembling eunuch next to him, made him still want to kill.

Forcibly holding back the furious thunder fire, Zhao Jicai waved his hand impatiently and said, "Hurry up!"

The little eunuch was glad that his life had been saved under the enraged emperor, and he immediately fled with a crawl.

Because he ran too quickly, he almost knocked over Su Yuanjing and Li Gang who came when he went out.

Li Gang was also on fire, but when he was about to have a seizure, he heard Zhao Ji's voice ringing out: "If you don't want our heads to hit the ground, let's come in quickly."

The two of them suppressed their anger, strode into the room, and after saluting, they sat opposite Zhao Ji.

"Your Majesty, I don't know what it is." Li Gang asked, "Aren't you presiding over the martial arts meeting of the three princesses, could it be ......?"

"It's Cai Jing, and something new has happened?" Su Yuanjing grabbed ahead of Li Gang and said in a heavy tone.

They were originally angry because Cai Jing was defeated by Dong Ping a while ago, and they also affected the elite of the Great Song Dynasty, and today they wanted to persuade Zhao Ji to send troops to rectify those Cai Jing's scattered soldiers and horses, and quickly return them to the central government.

I didn't want to see Zhao Ji as soon as I came in.

Another half a day passed, and the three of them kept confronting each other, and no one opened their mouths to say a word first.

"I want to tell you that Cai Jing has died in the chaos."

After being silent for a long time, Zhao Ji's words immediately made Li Gang almost jump.

After taking a deep breath, he sank down and said in a low tone: "Your Majesty, then, his military horse ......"

"His military horses were all incorporated by Dong Ping." Zhao Ji sat there with a calm face, like a puppet without a change in expression, and he said in a heavy tone: "Of the 300,000 people, only a hundred thousand old and weak soldiers ran back, and they are no different from the eunuch just now."

"Moreover, most of these people have fallen into the grass, and even the death of Dong Ping is fake." After Zhao Ji finished speaking, he closed his eyes, and it seemed that he didn't want to speak anymore.

In fact, no matter how many things there are, in Zhao Ji's opinion, they are not as shocking as the sentence "Dong Ping is still alive".

This news made Zhao Ji feel like falling into an ice cave for a while.

Su Yuanjing's eyes flickered violently, although he sat there and looked calm, his heart was already surging.

Originally, he still thought that Cai Jing had been defeated, and persuaded Zhao Ji to clean up and rectify the remnants.

Unexpectedly, Cai Jing not only died in the hands of Dong Ping, but even his 300,000 troops were abducted by Dong Ping!

Those people are the soldiers from all over the Great Song Dynasty, Su Yuanjing gritted his teeth, and his hands were clenched tightly, even if they were all second-rate bastards, they were much stronger than ordinary people.

After Dong Ping's rectification, he originally took in the 100,000 surrendered troops of Wen Huanzhang in Shandong, plus the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in the headquarters, and Cai Jing's rout this time, isn't there at least ......

More than 300,000 soldiers and horses?!

Thinking of this, Su Yuanjing only felt a little chill in his heart, and he immediately gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, now it seems that we can no longer sit still, we must act immediately!"

"What are you going to do?" Zhao Ji slumped in his chair and looked at the roof, speaking weakly.

The continuous blows were already on the verge of a nervous breakdown.

"If I'm not mistaken......"

Looking at the pile of documents on the table again, Su Yuanjing said in a low tone: "These are all letters sent by officials from all over the country, and all the people of Cai Jing's faction should be executed."

"That's right."

Hearing Su Yuanjing get to the point, Zhao Ji didn't cheer up much, he just still smiled bitterly and said: "The pacification envoys and soldiers and horses commanders of the 23rd Road in the country have collectively submitted a letter, and if they don't execute Cai Jing's entire clan and all the people in his faction, they will resign collectively."

"This ......"

After a brief shock, Li Gang just sneered: "Cai Jing, with the supreme prestige and power of his Taishi, must have forged the holy decree and forced these people to send troops.

Su Yuanjing also said: "That's right, this Cai Jing has already been an enemy of the world, but it's a pity that he will even affect the clansmen when he dies, what a beast."

"So you're going to listen to them." Zhao Ji's eyes wandered aimlessly in the room, circled around, and finally landed on Li Gang and Su Yuanjing.

In fact, Zhao Ji didn't plan to let go of Cai Jing's people, and the two sides were already on the same page.

If you want to fight, you must cut the grass and eradicate the roots!

It's just that Zhao Ji doesn't want to listen to those local forces, if they do whatever they say, then he, the emperor's central power, is no different from being completely hollowed out.

"Not bad!"

Su Yuanjing slapped the table suddenly, and suddenly stood up and said in an excited tone: "Your Majesty, now that my Great Song Dynasty's soldiers have been corrupted by Cai Jing's army, it all depends on Yue Fei's Western Army, Your Majesty, if you want the Great Song Dynasty to last forever, you shouldn't want this situation to continue, right?"

"What did you say?!"

As if stimulated, Zhao Ji jumped up from the chair suddenly, and he said excitedly: "What do you mean is ......?"

"That's right, now we will kill Cai Jing's entire clan with the help of Gao Yu!" Su Yuanjing sneered: "When the time comes, put the charge of rebellion on his head, and let Yue Fei come to the court alone to destroy Gao Yu, so that Yue Fei's henchmen will be wiped out, and the faction of Gao Yu and Cai Jing will also be cut and eradicated, and if you don't kill Cai Jing personally, Your Majesty, your reputation can be famous for future generations, and become a benevolent monarch through the ages, and the Great Song Dynasty can be more peaceful and peaceful, and there will never be a crisis!"

Zhao Ji's eyes trembled violently, and soon, he clenched his hands happily, and laughed loudly: "Okay, okay, just follow your plan, just follow Su Aiqing's plan, haha."

"Su Aiqing, Li Aiqing, you are really my right-hand man, and you are the pillars of the Great Song Dynasty!" Zhao Ji walked forward quickly, looked at Li Gang and Su Yuanjing excitedly, patted them on the shoulder and said.

Li Gang said with a smile: "Taiwei Su's plan does have the style of the martial marquis back then, but there are still some flaws in Yi's opinion."

Zhao Ji said: "Aiqing just say it."

Li Gang smiled, and leaned into Zhao Ji's ear to whisper, the more Zhao Ji listened, the more happy he became, and he was already laughing wildly in the back.

The room was filled with the laughter of three people, and it never dissipated.

After the three of them left, a figure flashed out from behind the screen.

The man just flashed and disappeared, and no one noticed him.

Soon, the man was outside.

"Commander Wang, our patrol is about to change shifts today, why do you want to extend the rest period?" The adjutant general came over with a group of soldiers, and only asked in a puzzled tone.

"Just do it, don't ask!" The man was obviously shocked for a moment, but quickly just calmed down, and sneered again: "Go back first, it's enough for me here!"

The forbidden soldiers looked at each other, but when Wang Yu said so, they could only disperse.

The next day, Zhao Ji ordered to seize the power of all the people in Cai Jing's clan with the power of thunder, and even everyone in his faction lost their official hats.

However, although the black gauze hat was lost, his life was still there.

To everyone's surprise, the imperial court turned a blind eye to these people.

At the same time, Zhao Ji launched a reform and merged the department specializing in dealing with officials' violations with the palace governor's mansion!

is a fool who can see what Zhao Ji means.

Finally, under Zhao Ji's constant hints, those who had anything to do with Cai Jing were all sent to the Yama Difu within three days by all kinds of strange deaths.

Who killed them, no one knows.

Some people say that it was killed by Shadow Sky, and some people say that it was killed by Ming Qiong.

Some people even say that it was the Shenwu Army that avenged Dong Ping and Sun An and sent a master to kill Cai Jing's entire clan.

Anyway, they didn't believe that it was ordered by Zhao Ji.

As a legendary killer organization, Mingqiong didn't know any news except for Wang Chongyang, who was the Holy Decree Envoy, and he didn't know anything about it.

Naturally, they didn't know that they were Zhao Ji's direct organization.

In short, although these people did not die in the hands of the imperial court, they did die anyway.

As a result, those local forces finally stabilized, and began to attack and recruit those bandits to replenish their troops.

At the same time, Gao Yu also sent carrier pigeons to Hu Yanzhuo and Guan Sheng, who were still in exile, telling them that Cai Jing and his entire clan were killed by Dong Ping, and came up with the so-called evidence.

It looks like it's over.

The world will be peaceful again.

But, naturally, the game didn't end so quickly.

The chess game is just the first step.

Tokyo, Kaifeng Province.

Cai Jing's henchmen have been completely eliminated, Zhao Ji was overjoyed, so he found his cronies and prepared to implement the plan, saying that all this was Gao Yu's intention to rebel, and sent a letter to Yue Fei to let him go to Beijing alone to assassinate Gao Yu.

Then, he will be able to eradicate the two major warlords Gao Yu and Yue Fei in one fell swoop.

If Yue Fei didn't come, Zhao Ji had already thought about it, he was ready to let Wang Chongyang assassinate Yue Fei, and then, announcing that this person would not abide by the military order, taking advantage of the chaos of the Yue family's army without a leader, thunder to seize his military power!

However, something happened that happened.

Before Zhao Ji and Li Gang could make a move, a piece of news shocked the whole world.

In Su Yuanjing's house, all the military books and important extremely secret materials that were lost in the Xuanwu Hall half a year ago were searched, as well as some evidence of Tongliao!

Su Yuanjing couldn't argue, although Zhao Ji was not very suspicious of him, but Gao Yu caught this to death.

Then, on charges of treason and stealing top secrets, he ordered Su Yuanjing to be executed.

Li Gang begged again and again, and finally almost didn't kneel, so Gao Yu decided to only remove Su Yuanjing from his official position and demote him to the people.

Su Yuanjing thought that he was about to destroy Gao Yu, so he actually lifted a stone and hit himself in the foot, and suddenly vomited blood in the house, and he couldn't afford to be sick from then on.

Zhao Ji came to Sufu with a heavy heart, and saw Su Yuanjing, whose breath was weak and water and rice were difficult to enter.

"Captain, you shouldn't have used this trick in the first place!"

Zhao Ji cried bitterly, grabbed Su Yuanjing's hand and cried bitterly: "Why were you caught by him?"

Saying that, Zhao Ji changed his words and said, "I just don't know where those stolen military books are now?"

"Your Majesty, don't you suspect that the old minister will not be able to steal the country?" Su Yuan sat up directly, and said in an excited tone: If the old minister steals those materials, why do you stay in the Great Song Dynasty? Can't you go to Liao to enjoy the glory and wealth as soon as possible, why bother to guard the safety of the Great Song Dynasty for more than 30 years? ”

Zhao Ji looked at him, and sneered casually: "I just said casually, are you so excited that there is a ghost in your heart, to tell you the truth, when you asked me to give up the right to punish officials to the palace Taiwei Mansion, I already had some suspicions!"

"You ......"

Gritting his teeth stiffly, Su Yuanjing's pupils dilated suddenly, and after trembling violently, he vomited Zhao Ji's blood.

After shouting "Lao Chen is not guilty" three times in a row, he collapsed.

The doctor came and said that the person was out of breath.

The corners of his mouth trembled violently, Zhao Ji roared, slammed the nearby screen with a sword, gritted his teeth and shouted: "Come on, recall Yue Fei's soldiers and horses to me, and then let Xuzhou Jiedu make Han Shizhong to command, and bring all his soldiers and horses to Tokyo, if they don't come, let Ming Qiong kill their whole family!"

"Your Majesty, what are you going to do?!" Li Gang said excitedly: "Now that the time is at the moment, you must not be reckless!"

Zhao Ji trembled all over, like a boiler about to explode, he looked at the palace in front of the palace outside, his eyes were full of murderous aura and anger.

He gritted his teeth and spoke with resentment that wanted to dismantle the man.

"I want to break the net with Gao Yuyu, if anyone dares to stop him again, I will personally cut him into corpses!"
