In the dungeon of the Imperial Tower, Fu Bi looked up at the small hole on the top that let in the light, and his face was worried.

Fu Bi has been in for a few days, from the initial self-confidence, to Sima Guang's inquiries coming and going, Fu Bi also knows the whole thing.

At this time, Fu Bi had already understood, from the beginning when Gan Qi proposed that he send someone to Liao to inquire about the news, this was a bureau, what kind of letter did Liu Liufu reply to, Fu Bi had not completely figured it out until this time, but there was one thing he was sure of, that is, Liu Liufu said the specific details of the battle of Dadingfu.

Although he was in prison, Sima Guang had always treated him with courtesy, which also made Fu Bi somewhat calm, and he really didn't believe that he could be convicted of any crime against him, an old minister of the Three Dynasties, with a letter written to him by others.

Fu Bi slowly thought about these things in his heart, and he still had many things to know, such as the reaction of the civil and military forces of the imperial court to this matter, the public opinion of the common people on this matter, and the discussion of this matter in the literati circle.

However, there is no real source in the Imperial History Terrace, and Fu Bi still looks forward to the sympathy of the people of the world for him and the rebellion against Gan Qi.

At this time, there was a sound on the side of the prison door, Fu Bi hurriedly got up to look, and saw that Feng Jing had come in, his face was overjoyed, and he said, "You are finally here?" ”

There was still some unhappiness in his tone, because his father-in-law had been in prison for several days, and this son-in-law was late.

Feng Jing had already made a gesture again and again: "Lord Taishan, it's too late, forgive your sins." ”

When Fu Bi heard this, he didn't say anything harsh, but asked anxiously, "Are everyone in the family okay?" ”

Feng Jing replied while waiting for Fu Bi to sit down: "It's all good, they are all in prison in Dali Temple, and they have not suffered any crimes, but there are some interrogations from time to time. ”

"That's good." Fu Bi became more and more relieved, and there were no those who were tortured, which proved that those who were officials still knew in their hearts, and knew who he Fu Bi was, so he said: "What are you talking about outside now?" ”

Feng Jing replied: "Among public opinion, it is quite unfavorable to Mount Tai. ”

"Nonsense."

"Alas...... Gan Xiang made the letter public in the newspaper, and countless people in Bianliang City read it, and the letter was really not good for Taishan. Feng Jing told the truth.

"The old man and the old ministers of the three dynasties, His Majesty Renzong, and His Majesty Yingzong, are all called the humerus. He is a milky and unfinished person, framing the old man like this, the court and the court, and countless old ministers, how can they all look at it like this? "Fu Bi really doesn't believe it, how can he Ganqi cover the sky with one hand? How could this Great Song Dynasty ever cover the sky with one hand? Yushitai, the Imperial Academy, those counselors, when did they lose their courage so much?

Think back then, when Bao Zheng was in the court, how dare he speak? Now Sima Guang is so cowardly? No, Sima Guang is not such a coward, it is impossible not to fight for reason above the court?

"Taishan, father-in-law, my lord, Sima Guang's heart is willing." Feng Jing came to see him today, in fact, he came to persuade him, but he couldn't really say anything to persuade Fu Bi to bow his head, and he was also embarrassed.

"Impossible, a person like Sima Guang, the old man has seen a lot, and he is not the kind of person who clings to the powerful." Fu Bi didn't believe it, but he looked at Feng Jing again, became suspicious, and asked, "Didn't you come today to be a lobbyist for Gan Qi?" You eat things inside and out, don't you want to harm me? ”

"Father-in-law, alas, ......" Feng Jing really didn't know how to say it was good, so he had to shake his head again and again, feeling aggrieved in his heart.

The situation is different, but this old man is tough and hard. Feng Jing took out a newspaper from his arms and handed it to Fu Bi, which contained the full text of Liu Liufu's letter.

Fu Bi took it and looked at it through the light on the top of the cave, this was a letter to him, but he hadn't really read it yet, and only guessed a few words from Sima Guang's words.

When I really read it today, I read it and Fu Bi frowned, Liu Liufu recounted the old feelings over and over again in the letter, and the more Fu Bi talked about it, the more he frowned. One million guan, asking Fu Bi to stop Gan Qi from sending troops again, this thing is really beyond Fu Bi's expectations, one million guan, Fu Bi doesn't have to guess, this huge amount of money cannot be from Liu Liufu, this must be from the Liao court.

But in Fu Bi's life experience, how could the Liao people ever grovel so much? Is this still Liao?

How powerful were the Liao people in the past?

Where did Fu Bi expect that today's Liao people would come to beg for themselves like this?

Gan Qi is so powerful? Beat the Liao people so frightened?

Fu Bi settled down and said, "I didn't respond to the Liao people sending me money, and I don't know." ”

Feng Jing nodded again and again: "Sima Zhongcheng said it in the court, saying that the father-in-law didn't know about it. ”

Fu Bi nodded, continued to look down, and after reading it, he immediately said: "Look, Gan Qi deceived the king, this is the evidence." ”

Feng Jing shook his head: "Father-in-law, where is this kind of bullying the king, this is the evidence that you are colluding with the enemy country to frame Zhongliang." ”

"Nonsense, Gan Qi used lies to cheat the imperial court in Dading Mansion, the evidence is here, how can Your Majesty turn a blind eye?" Fu Bi said angrily.

"Alas...... First, this matter is the Liao people you always took the initiative to ask, who knows if you always deliberately let Liu Liufu answer like this? There are rumors like this. Second, in the city of Tokyo in the Great Song Dynasty, do the people of the world believe in Gan Xianggong or in the words of a Liao person? Third, Sima Guang really sent people to the army and asked many generals, all of whom said that there was a shortage of food at that time, and he was willing to hide it and not release it, and stabilized the battle situation with his own strength. Fourth, Gan Xianggong was the first to see this letter, but he did not hide these words, and sent them out openly. You think about it for a while, who do the people of Bianliang City believe in now? ”

Feng Jing is serious talk, he just wants to persuade Fu Bi, forget it. Why do you want to persuade you, you are afraid that once Fu Bi walks out from here, he will not be relentless.

Gan Qi's purpose for asking Feng Jing to come to see Fu Bi was here. To use a vulgar phrase, that is, don't give a face. Otherwise, it will kill you.

If you don't kill Fubi, Gan Qi still has considerations, which are in line with the considerations of the people of this era. There is no need to really kill an old minister of the Three Dynasties directly, this is really too much in the hearts of the scholars.

It is necessary to show both thunderous means and benevolence. Nagan Qi is still a scholar, and the identity of a sage gentleman must be maintained, a ruthless reader, although the means are ruthless, but he is still a scholar like everyone, and he still follows the unspoken rules of officialdom.

Fu Bi was silent.

After being silent for a long time, he asked Feng Jing: "You say, is the old man guilty?" What is the sin? ”

Fu Bi still has a fluke mentality, or he still wants to make a last effort.

Feng Jing was also silent, he was deciding whether to directly extinguish those thoughts in Fu Bi's heart, or to say a word of heart-wrenching.

"You say that the old man Tiansheng has been in the office for eight years, and his protégés are all over the world, and he has sent the Liao State to retreat from the army, and has relieved countless people from the disaster, what is the old man's crime? Why did you end up here? In this world, are they all blind? If His Majesty Renzong and His Majesty Yingzong were aware, they would also cry out for the old man. ”

Fu Bi originally wanted to make a bitter meat plan, so that the people of the world could see Gan Qi's true face, so that Gan Qi could not come to the stage, and let Gan Qi bear the name of framing Zhongliang, who would have thought that this bitter meat trick would make a chicken fly egg, Fu Bi didn't believe it.

Feng Jing finally asked the words of the heart: "Father-in-law, you really haven't thought about it...... Let Gan Qi be defeated in battle? Let the army of more than 100,000 be defeated and killed and wounded countless times? ”

Fu Bi's eyes widened: "What do you mean by this?" ”

What do you mean? It's not interesting, just ask Fu Bi, is it really so clear of conscience in the country and the court?

Feng Jing obviously understands Fu Bi, it's not that he doesn't understand, but there is no way to be caught in the middle. Fu Bi's life, decades of ups and downs in officialdom, what protégés and former officials are all over the world, and now, what about those protégés?

Tian Condition, Zhang Fangping, these people, when they were unlucky, where was Fubi? When Wen Yanbo died in rebellion, where was Fu Bi?

Why bother now? The imperial court is thriving, defeating strong enemies externally, and reforming the government internally. Why bother?

Feng Jing asked again: "Father-in-law, hundreds of thousands of troops, if they are really defeated in Dading Mansion, hundreds of thousands of lives, hundreds of thousands of families...... There are so many years of hard fighting, all of which have been in vain...... Father-in-law, why bother? At your age, what else can't you let go? Why do you have to do that? No one in the court said anything, that is, how many people knew it as well as me, and you frequently prevented the court from raising grain and grass in the court, which one didn't see it? Now that there is this letter, Sima Guang has been guilty several times, but why didn't he quit this errand to try the case? Didn't he have a little doubt in his heart? ”

"Don't talk nonsense here, what benefits did you get from Ganchi? Yes? How big is it for you? You're going to work so hard for him? The old man is unbearable? Is Ganchi all right? Naganqi will be the scourge of my Great Song in the future! "Fu Bi is in a hurry.

Feng Jing shook his head again, sighed again, and said slowly: "What kind of person Gan Xianggong is, I also know a thing or two in my heart. If I hadn't known, how would I be here today? Father-in-law, there are hundreds of people in a rich family, and although His Majesty is angry with the words in his mouth, he does not dare to say that he will kill him. But that Gan Xianggong, he is different, a person like him, who says that he wants a hundred or dozens of lives, will not frown. ”

"You're threatening me?" Fu Bi glared and got up.

Feng Jing said in a calm tone: "But Gan Xianggong promised me not to kill anyone, let me help him run an errand, and pay me for the Kaifeng Mansion, and let me go to fight with those dignitaries and dignitaries in Bianliang City." Father-in-law, how did I ever want to do this errand? I don't want to be an enemy of the dignitaries and dignitaries of the entire Bianliang City......"

When Fu Bi heard this, his expression shrank, then he looked at Feng Jing, and then spoke: "Then let Gan Qi kill, I have a hundred or dozens of rich families, let him kill him, and see how the people of the world think of him Gan Qi!" ”

"Wen Xianggong probably thought so at the beginning, he was the prime minister of the Song Dynasty, holding the holy decree in his hand, how could he have thought that he would be assassinated on the street?" Feng Jing still persuaded, in the words of this persuasion, with his attitude, in his heart, although his feelings for Gan Qi were complicated, he still supported Gan Qi.

The reason is very simple, because Gan Qi is really moving forward with the country thriving, looking at the letter, looking at the posture of the Liao people groveling and begging for mercy, which Song people's hearts can not be touched? What Confucian student could not be excited?

"Let him kill!" Fu Bi's tone was still hard.

Feng Jing didn't say much, but nodded weakly: "Then I'll go back to Gan Xianggong, I won't do this errand." ”

Feng Jing sighed again and bowed: "Father-in-law, take care." ”

After speaking, Feng Jing turned around and walked towards the prison gate.

It wasn't until Feng Jing walked out of the prison door that he heard the footsteps of the jailer in the distance, and the prison door was chained.

Suddenly.

"In the world, it's over, it's over!"

The sound of Fu Bi looking up to the sky and sighing passed through the two-story prison door and reached Feng Jing's ears, Feng Jing smiled lightly, turned his head and shouted: "Father-in-law, I am here, and I am still the descendants of the rich family." ”

"The World......"

"Well, I'm here, you keep talking."

After a long silence, looking at Fu Bi again, the spirit has gone, the person is languishing and sitting on the ground, already old tears, the majesty of the prime minister for decades is gone, only the old man's rickets are powerless.

Feng Jing couldn't hear Fu Bi's words for a long time, and shouted: "Father-in-law, don't worry, you won't come out in a few days." I'll go first. ”

Feng Jing is gone, the matter is successfully resolved, and it is time for Feng Jing to fulfill his promise and complete the errand of Kaifeng Mansion.

As for Fubi......

Feng Jing also had to arrange, first arrange for the family to be released from prison and pack up the belongings. then arranged for Fu Bi to be secretly released from prison, and then went directly out of the city and returned to his hometown.

The rich family can't afford the anger of this Bianliang City, and the rich family can't live in this Bianliang City.

As for Fu Bi's crime, with Gan Qi's nod, it is incompetent, talentless, or unethical, or the loss of the national body. The title of the bachelor, the identity of the pavilion, and the reputation of the ordinary chapter are all done.

As for the people's abuse, or the records of the history books, or the statements of the wild history, they can only go with him.

The thing Feng Jing wanted to leave was to take a ruler, go out of the city in person, and start measuring the acres of land.

Start with the property of the royal palace of Runan-gun!

Dignitaries and dignitaries, in this Bianjing, there is no one more than the palace of Runan County.

The mayor of the capital, come and measure it in person.

Zhao Zonghan, the king of Runan County, personally accompanied.

not only accompanied him personally, but also brought all the royal children in Zongzheng Temple to the scene.

The world of the Zhao family, starting from the Zhao family, no one has to say much.

Gan Xianggong was also late and arrived at the scene.

At a glance, the mountains are all over the wilderness, and the land that cannot be seen is all owned by the palace, and among the fields, countless people working are in rags.

This Great Song Dynasty has to be changed, it has to be changed deeply, this land is in the hands of the nobles, and the people at the bottom can only be attached to the nobles.

Such a society is not the society that Gan Qi had in mind.

But Gan Qi also knows, and he still can't be in a hurry.

But Gan Qi is also a little confused, if you really want to change to that point, if you really want everyone to have land, how to do it?

Thinking of this, Gan Qi looked at Zhao Zonghan who was smiling on the side, and was suddenly startled.
