Qu Ping glanced at Zhu Shuzhen curiously, and saw that Xiao Lu and Zhao Ping'er were both sitting in the hall, so he asked, "What's wrong with this child?" Hurrying up? ”

"Li Qingzhao has been arrested!" Xiao Lu said.

It turned out that after Zhao Ping'er returned home, she talked to Xiao Lu about the trickery at the Queen Mother's birthday banquet today, saying that Qin Hui had recruited all of them, and the prince, Yue Fei, Zhang Xian and others were all framed by Qin Hui, and they were wronged.

The two princesses were chatting and high-fived, when suddenly Zhu Shuzhen ran in in a rage, saying that the Praetorian Guards went to Guozijian to arrest Li Qingzhao, who was in class.

Zhu Shuzhen is back to move the rescuers.

Qu Ping muttered: "Li Qingzhao was arrested? ”

He hadn't figured out the relationship between Li Qingzhao and Qin Hui yet.

Zhu Shuzhen hurriedly explained: "I heard from the Praetorian Guards that they said that Qin Hui was going to be punished by the Nine Clans, so Li Qingzhao was arrested!" ”

Qu Ping asked: "I'm sorry, please forgive me for being a shallow learner, punishing the nine clans, which nine clans are you referring to?" ”

Zhao Ping'er glanced at him and said: "The nine clans refer to the fourth clan of the father: refers to their own clan, the family of the married aunt and her son, the family of the married sister and nephew, the married daughter and the grandson's family. Maternal family 3: refers to the maternal grandfather's family, maternal grandmother's maiden family, aunt and her son's family. Wife family 2: refers to the father-in-law's family and the mother-in-law's maiden family. ”

"So, what is the relationship between Li Qingzhao and Qin Hui?" Qu Ping still didn't understand.

Xiao Lu said: "We don't know, it seems that we are related to Mrs. Qin Hui's Wang family." I don't know exactly what the relationship is. ”

Qu Ping thought to himself, Li Qingzhao is the only remaining outstanding contemporary female literati in the Great Song Dynasty, it would be a pity to kill her, and it is not clear what her specific relationship with Qin Hui is.

Qu Ping touched Zhu Shuzhen's head and said to everyone: "Li Qingzhao is a female literary and artistic worker with outstanding contributions, and she can't be caught in vain. I'll just ask! ”

Zhu Shuzhen begged with red eyes: "You must save Mr. Li!" ”

Zhao Ping'er said: "You go!" Don't implicate the innocent. ”

Qu Ping nodded, then remembered Zheng Guang, who was standing awkwardly behind him, and introduced to everyone: "This is Zheng Guang, Jinghai Division, and Wu Zhishen's good brother!" ”

Zheng Guang was embarrassed and hurriedly saluted the two princesses.

"Brother Zheng Guang!" Wu Zhishen happened to pass by at this time, and when he saw Zheng Guang, he cried out in surprise.

Qu Ping said: "It's good that Zhishen is here, you brothers catch up with the old days, and I'll go back when I go!" ”

Wu Zhishen happily agreed, and said: "That Zheng Demon King will be escorted to Beijing tomorrow, what will the prince do with him?" ”

"The overall situation has been decided, send it to the government to bring it to justice!" Qu Ping said.

Qu Ping rode out of the house and went straight to find Li Gang. Li Gang is the first person in charge of Qin Hui's case, and it must be right to look for him.

Li Gang is so busy that there are too many relevant people involved in the case who have to verify the match one by one, and they have to work with the household department to check the personnel of the nine clans in each family, and there is no room for mistakes.

When the officials of all sizes saw Qu Ping's sudden arrival, they hurriedly greeted him.

Qu Ping didn't have time to pay attention to them, asked where Li Gang was, and went directly to see Li Gang.

"Prime Minister, I heard that Li Qingzhao has been arrested!" Qu Ping entered the door.

Li Gang raised his head and saw that it was Qu Ping, and said, "Li Qingzhao? ”

"That's right! Is she within the nine clans of Qin Hui? ”

Li Gang and Li Qingzhao have also known each other for many years, and when they heard that her name was there, they fell in love and quickly asked the household waiter on the side to quickly check it.

Before the problem came to light, Li Gang was also a little worried. When Li Gang went to Qin Hui's mansion, he met Li Qingzhao coming out, and she seemed to have said that she was a cousin with Mrs. Qin Hui.

If Li Qingzhao is implicated and killed, it is indeed a pity.

"My lord, I found it!" The Tobe waiter said with the roster in his hand.

"Speak quickly!" Qu Ping and Li Gang said in unison.

According to the relationship between the directories, the household servant said: "Li Qingzhao's maternal grandfather and Qin Hui's wife Wang's grandfather are the prime minister of Wang Qi during the Shenzong period!" ”

"There is such a relationship!" Qu Ping looked at Li Gang and said, "You are also the prime minister, don't you know?" ”

"How did the old man know that when he died, it is estimated that the old man was still drinking milk!" Li Gang called Qu Dao.

Qu Ping asked the household servant: "To put it bluntly, does Li Qingzhao belong to the nine clans of Qin Hui?" ”

The household servant said: "The wife of the Zhujiu clan refers to the father-in-law's family and the mother-in-law's maiden family, and does not include the grandchildren of the father-in-law's father......"

"That's a mistake!" The stone in Qu Ping's heart finally fell, and then he said to Li Gang, "Prime Minister, it really doesn't have a good impact on catching the wrong person like this!" ”

Li Gang was also speechless, and said: "Yes, this appearance must make everyone rigorous in their work style, and they can't make mistakes in their busyness!" The prince can rest assured, the original appearance asked people to go and release Yi'an Jushi immediately! ”

"If you have the Prime Minister, I'll be relieved. Adults have heavy official duties, so I won't bother and say goodbye! ”

"I don't send it. Tomorrow, when you go to court, you have to report the situation to the emperor, and you can't relax at all. ”

"Don't make a mistake in your busyness."

"Definitely, it must be!" 127

Qu Ping said goodbye to Li Gang, and he was afraid for a while. Catching lice with such a big hand will inevitably hurt the innocent, and I am afraid that there will be fish that will slip through the net. It is hoped that Li Gang can make amends and correct his work methods in a timely manner to avoid the recurrence of similar situations.

In the palace of the Queen Mother, the Emperor Taishang and Queen Wu sat with the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother had a sad face, and her good birthday was disturbed by Qin Hui, not to mention how angry she was.

Empress Wu peeled an orange, presented it to the Queen Mother, and said, "This Qin Hui, in vain the emperor's trust, actually did such a thing." Now it can be regarded as a cycle of retribution, and it has obtained cause and effect. ”

The Queen Mother said hatefully: "The mourning family and the Emperor Taishang love him very much, and what he is doing is smearing the faces of the Mourning family and the Emperor Taishang!" ”

Emperor Zhao Ji sighed and said: "Fortunately, if you find it in time, you can still make up for it." ”

"Yes, don't worry about the Queen Mother. You might as well think of it this way, Qin Hui and his henchmen were uprooted, benefiting the country and the people, in fact, it is the most solemn and meaningful part of the Queen Mother! Empress Wu changed her mind to explain Empress Dowager Wei.

When Empress Dowager Wei heard the queen's explanation, she felt a little better and said, "Then this big gift was specially given to the mourning family by Prince Xiang?" ”

Empress Wu was not easy to answer, for fear that the Queen Mother would have more prejudices against Qu Ping.

"You might as well say that I gave it to the Queen Mother!" The emperor walked into the palace at this time and said. He deliberately didn't let the palace maid pass the word, and he went straight into the palace.

When Empress Wu saw the emperor come in and relieve the siege, she said with a smile: "It turned out that the emperor planned it, and it was really extraordinary!" ”

The queen mother heard the emperor say this, although she didn't fully believe it, but the emperor had taken it all over herself, and she couldn't pursue it anymore. Just a sad sigh.

The Emperor said to the emperor: "You should inform your mother in advance, she doesn't have to be so sad. ”

The emperor did not shy away from it, and said: "The emperor knows that the queen mother has a lot of favor for Qin Hui, so he didn't dare to tell her in advance, for fear that Qin Hui would see the clue." ”

When the queen mother saw the emperor say this, she remembered that when the emperor was sick, she intervened in the position between Qu Ping and Qin Hui, and felt a little aggrieved and guilty, and couldn't help but say: "The mourning family is older, and I don't want to care about the affairs of the harem in the future." ”

The Queen Mother regretted it after speaking, but it was too late, and the emperor answered.

The emperor did not hesitate at all, and said: "It's okay, the queen is young and vigorous, so she should be treated more." ”

The queen mother wanted to speak and stopped, so she could only eat coptis dumbly.

Empress Dowager Wu knew that the Empress Dowager was probably angry at the moment, and said: "The Empress Dowager is the head of the harem, although I am the queen, I still have to ask the Empress Dowager for advice from time to time." ”

When the queen mother saw that the queen was modest, she didn't say anything more.

Zhao Ji saw that the queen mother's mood had improved, and said: "In the future, the emperor will definitely be busy." I will stay in the palace for a long time, and it is time to go back to the Hangzhou Palace. ”

The Queen Mother heard Zhao Ji say that she was leaving, and said, "Don't stay a few more days?" ”

The queen said: "Why doesn't the emperor accompany the queen mother more, and let our juniors have the opportunity to honor you more?" ”

The emperor didn't care if he stayed for ten days and a half more, the key was that he was afraid of being next to the emperor's eyes, which would make the emperor feel unstable in his heart.

The emperor pondered: "Now that the world is decided, all officials are subordinate to me, if I can welcome the Emperor Taishang back to the palace, wouldn't it be even more open-minded and filial?" This bit of background and confidence, I should have it! ”

So, the emperor spoke: "Father, I am thinking, there is a lot of rain and humidity in the south, and you and other aunts no longer look like they are in the prime of life, I want to welcome you back to the palace to live for a long time, what do you think?" ”

The Emperor Taishang thought that the emperor saw that he had no desires and desires, and he wanted to extend an olive branch to himself, and also make an appearance to the subjects of the world, if he refused, he was afraid of disobeying the emperor's holy will.

The Emperor Taishang has also been the emperor and knows how to put himself in his shoes, so he replied without prevarication:

"The emperor really has a heart! I will definitely specialize in calligraphy and painting, give full play to my spare energy, and strive to make a certain contribution to the culture of the Great Song Dynasty! ”

The meaning of what the Emperor said is very clear, he has no intention of power, he is only willing to be intoxicated with literature and art, and let the emperor put a hundred hearts.

The emperor had a whim, and said: "The Guozijian Literary and Art Academy is lacking a dean, can my father be interested in being humble?" ”

In any dynasty, if the emperor goes to be the dean of the academy, he will definitely be ashamed of himself or be ridiculed and generous.

However, the people of the Great Song Dynasty were open, especially the strong literary and artistic atmosphere, and if a former emperor could hold this position, it would definitely promote the people's love for culture.

In addition, Zhao Ji's calligraphy and painting attainments are quite high, and he can be regarded as an industry leader, if Zhao Ji himself does not object, it is a good thing that everyone expects.

Emperor Zhao Ji thought to himself: "Guozijian is the highest institution of learning in the Great Song Dynasty, and the Academy of Literature and Art is the essence of the country, bringing together the country's top industry leaders, the most comprehensive calligraphy and painting works, and the most potential students." As the president of the Academy of Literature and Art, he is the emperor of the literary and artistic world! Isn't this what I love? ”

The Emperor Taishang didn't dare not want the fragrant dumplings in his hand, and nodded and said, "Naturally, I'm happy!" ”

Empress Wu complimented: "Emperor Taishang leads the literary and artistic circles, and he will definitely be able to lead the Great Song Dynasty culture to a qualitative leap!" ”

Since then, the Great Song Dynasty has had an additional president of the Academy of Literature and Art.

Zhao Ji hid his identity and only called him "Thin Gold Master" to the outside world.

Make the best use of things and make the best use of talents. Zhao Ji changed to a new position, and when he arrived in a new field, the fireflies suddenly became a bright moon, leading the Great Song civilization to a higher peak with decades of time. Five years later, the priest of the country told the old man, and Zhao Ji took charge of the country......

Within the palace, the problems of Zhao Ji and Empress Dowager Wei were perfectly resolved. Empress Wu officially took over the harem and achieved the most gentle and comfortable night for the emperor.

On this day, Li Qingzhao was rescued, and from a personal aspect, he saved the loss of the literary world; On this day, Zhao Ji got his favorite stage, which promoted the prosperity of culture from the perspective of the country and the nation!

At the beginning of the day, the night was dark, and the cold wind of December carried a chill, as if it was going to freeze all the exposed pests!

In the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, the oil lamps were burning lifelessly, and in the open space in the middle, the jailers were warming themselves around the braziers.

After the Yingtianfu Yamen Prison was filled with new prisoners, the prison of the Criminal Department was also filled, and later, except for the important prisoners, the other sitting prisoners were locked in ordinary rooms to watch and wait for execution.

At this time, the jailer guarding the door outside shouted: "Your Excellency Prime Minister has arrived!" ”
