Chapter 80: Who dares to be so rebellious
…
The Lantern Festival of the Song Dynasty had a custom - the Son of Heaven enjoyed with the people to show his closeness to the people.
A small poem reads: "Play Shun music, enter the Yao Cup, and spread the propaganda car to the heavenly street." The king rejoiced with the people, and came from all sides. It is the scene of the emperor of the Song Dynasty enjoying the Lantern Festival with the people in Xuande Gate.
Every year on the night of the 14th (or 15th or 16th) of the first lunar month, the emperor has to take a small fortune to Xuande Gate, watch the lanterns, all kinds of artists perform sumo wrestling, juju, hundred operas and other programs on a terrace that has already been set up under the Xuande Building, the emperor and a group of ministers, concubines sit upstairs to enjoy the performance, first go to the citizens under the Xuande Gate, and even can see the dragon's face up close.
This year's "Lantern Festival Gala" was held on the 15th day of the first lunar month.
It can be said that so far, the event has been very successful.
Then perform a finale program, Song Huizong Zhao Ji and then use the seal on the list of singing merit and praise virtue that has been prepared for a long time, and finally Zhao Ji will say two high-sounding closing speeches as usual, and this "Lantern Festival Gala" can come to a successful conclusion.
Zhao Ji turned his head and asked the eunuch on the side: "Zhang Di hasn't returned yet?" ”
The little eunuch replied, "Not yet." ”
Zhao Jixin said: "It takes so long to pick up someone? ”
Why is there no one behind Zhao Ji's dormitory.
It turned out that Zhao Ji was in a good mood tonight, and because he didn't have a confidant to share this interest with him, he wanted to find Master Li, who had a very common language, so he sent Zhang Di to get the jade seal, and by the way, all the people between his bedroom and the tunnel were taken away, so that he could "pay a private visit", which was exploited by Li Yan and Chen Liqing.
Zhao Ji waved his hand and said, "Go down." ”
Seeing Zhang Di being so sluggish, Zhao Ji didn't blame Zhang Di, and all the eunuchs around him were envious, jealous and hateful!
After waiting for a while, the reserved program - the Keju show starring Gao Taiwei is almost over, and Zhang Di has not come back yet.
Zhao Ji frowned and said, "Go and urge." ”
When the eunuch heard this, he immediately arranged for someone to find Zhang Di.
As the king of a country, Zhao Ji naturally couldn't wait for a eunuch.
At the end of the Juju show, Zhao Ji stood up and said a few closing words, and then moved to Xuande Building with a group of ministers.
As for how to deal with the list of useless jade seals, someone will pay attention to it.
Zhao Ji drank tea in the Xuande Building for more than half an hour, and went to find Zhang Di's little eunuch before he came back and replied: I couldn't find Pavilion Chief Zhang, and even the eunuch who followed Pavilion Chief Zhang was nowhere to be found.
Cai Jing has served as prime minister four times, for a total of 17 years, and the ups and downs can be called the first person in ancient and modern times, you can say that Cai Jing is a traitor, but you can't say that Cai Jing is incompetent.
Cai Jing was the first to realize that something might have happened, so he came out and said, "Your Majesty should send someone to search for Pavilion Chief Zhang." ”
Wang Hao then said: "This matter is strange, Your Majesty should send more people to find Pavilion Chief Zhang and others." ”
At this moment, a eunuch hurriedly came in and said, "Your Majesty, the slave and maid have something important to do!" ”
Zhao Ji said: "Say it." ”
The eunuch looked at Cai Jing and the others from the corner of his eye, and then said, "The slave and maid ask for the harem!" ”
This eunuch's surname is Yang, his name is Jian, and he is Zhao Ji's absolute confidant, and even Yang Jian participated in the marriage between Zhao Ji and Master Li.
In Zhao Ji's eyes, Yang Jian is steady, and if there is no major event, he will never propose to go to the apse to report in front of so many people.
Therefore, Zhao Ji thought about it and moved to the apse.
And Yang Jian immediately followed Zhao Ji's footsteps!
Entering the apse, as soon as Zhao Ji sat down, Yang Jian couldn't wait to say: "There are still ...... who are nowhere to be found with Pavilion Chief Zhao Decree. ”
Listening to Yang Jian's words, Zhao Ji stood up suddenly, and said with a shocked face: "What did you say?" ”
Although Zhao Ji is mediocre, it doesn't mean that he doesn't care about anything.
If you talk about being the most comfortable emperor in all dynasties, Zhao Ji will definitely be on the list, and he will be among the best.
Therefore, Zhao Ji was reluctant to take his throne.
And the heirloom jade seal is one of the few things that can shake Zhao Ji's throne.
Let's ask, how could Zhao Ji not care?
Yang Jian said: "After Pavilion Chief Zhang asked for the jade seal, a small yellow door saw them go to His Majesty's bedroom, and after that, they disappeared. ”
Zhao Jixin said: "Could it be that Zhang Di took the jade seal out of the palace from the tunnel?" ”
Thinking of this possibility, Zhao Ji couldn't help but be suspicious, you must know that this tunnel was dug and built by Zhang Di, and Zhang Di was responsible for digging and building.
At this moment, a familiar voice of Zhao Ji came from outside: "Your Majesty, the slave Liang Shicheng has something important to ask to see!" ”
Liang Shicheng is Zhao Ji's close minister, Zhao Ji's edicts are from his hands, Wang Hao treats him like a father, called "Mr. Enfu", even Cai Jing's father and son have to flatter him, the people of the capital regard him as "hidden phase", and he concurrently holds one hundred and ten official positions.
Hearing that the person outside the door was Liang Shicheng, Zhao Ji frowned, but still let Liang Shicheng in.
As soon as Liang Shicheng came in, he bowed and said, "Your Majesty, when Huangmen Sheyang was cleaning His Majesty's bedroom, he found a corpse!" ”
Zhao Ji said: "Corpse, whose corpse?" ”
Liang Shicheng glanced at Yang Jian, and then said: "The slave maid doesn't know, She Yang hasn't seen the appearance of the corpse clearly, and was kicked out of His Majesty's bedroom by the people who entered the inner service province. ”
Liang Shicheng and Yang Jian have not fought for a day or two, how can Zhao Ji be inferior? Zhao Ji not only knew that this was also the result of Zhao Ji's connivance.
But the infighting also has to be divided into times, and your mother has lost the jade seal of the country, and you still fucking fight!
Zhao Ji yelled at Yang Jian: "Don't check it yet!" ”
Yang Jian bowed to the ground, and then retreated, and when he passed by Liang Shicheng, Yang Jian glanced at Liang Shicheng who gave him eye medicine resentfully!
Yang Jian just went out with his front foot, and Liang Shicheng said with his back foot: "Your Majesty, do you want to let the Inner Servant Province go to check together, the slave is worried that there is a problem with entering the Inner Servant Province......"
Yang Jian's position as the governor of the Inner Serving Province is equivalent to the general manager of the Qing Dynasty, and the few people who took away Sheyang who entered the Inner Serving Province were Yang Jian's subordinates, in fact, She Yang was also a person who entered the Inner Serving Province, otherwise he would not have had the opportunity to clean Zhao Ji's bedroom, but I don't know why Sheyang switched to Liang Shicheng, which gave Liang Shicheng the opportunity to give Yang Jian eye medicine, and also gave Liang Shicheng the opportunity to intervene in the Inner Serving Province.
Just when Zhao Ji was thinking about whether to let the Inner Servants investigate this matter together, Yang Jian, who had just gone out, actually returned.
Yang Jian said: "Your Majesty, the slave maid has something important to ask for a separate report!" ”
It turned out that after She Yang was kicked out, the people who entered the inner province quickly found out that there was more than one person who died, and among them was Zhao Ji's henchman Zhang Di.
They didn't dare to delay, so they went directly to Yang Jian to report the matter!
But Yang Jian came to Xuande Building first to report the loss of the jade seal, and the people who came to find Yang Jian could only follow Xuande Building, and then wait for Yang Jian to come out outside Xuande Building!
After Yang Jian came out, the people who entered the Inner Servant Province immediately stepped forward and told Yang Jian everything about it!
After Yang Jian heard this, he immediately returned!
Zhao Ji didn't want to be known about the loss of the jade seal of the country, even if it was his henchman, so he said to Liang Shicheng: "You go down first." ”
Waiting for Liang Shicheng to walk away, without waiting for Zhao Ji to ask, Yang Jian took the initiative to say: "Your Majesty, I have found Pavilion Chief Zhang." ”
Zhao Ji was overjoyed and said, "I found it, what about others, bring him to see me!" ”
Yang Jian said: "Pavilion Chang Zhang...... He can't come, he's dead. ”
Zhao Ji said in disbelief: "Zhang Di is dead? What about the jade seal? ”
Yang Jian said: "There is no jade seal on Zhang Gechang and the others. ”
Zhao Ji was furious and said, "Seal off my dormitory and find the jade ...... Find the murderer of Zhao Di and others! ”
Zhao Ji had the intention to let Yang Jian go to the tunnel to have a look, but Zhao Ji didn't want to expose this tunnel, because it would be a huge stain on his politics and even his life.
Just when Zhao Ji was hesitating, someone outside the door said: "Your Majesty, Taishi Cai and Tong Shumi led the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces to ask for a meeting." ”
It turned out that Liang Shicheng didn't realize the seriousness of this matter at all, he just felt that this was a good opportunity to attack his great enemy Yang Jian, so he asked people to poke out the matter of the death case of Emperor Yufa, which was managed by the Inner Servant Province.
Hearing that such a major event happened in the palace, how could Cai Jing and the others not come and take a look? It's not just about the matter itself, it's also about attitude!
Although Cai Jing, Tong Guan, Wang Hao, Gao Yu and others are also Zhao Ji's henchmen, this matter is related to Zhao Ji's face, and it is even more related to Zhao Ji's throne, so Zhao Ji only let Yang Jian say that someone killed Zhang Di and others in his bedroom, and did not say that the jade seal of the country was lost.
Cai Jing and the others immediately searched for the murderer, and Zhang Luo added guards to Zhao Ji, and then guessed who dared to be so rebellious.
These people worked all the time, and it was not until the end of the day that Zhao Ji returned to the dormitory under the escort of a large group of guards.
At this time, Zhao Ji knew that his study was also patronized by that thief, and his beloved four treasures of the study and the pair of ancient famous swords that had not yet been confirmed were also stolen!
Zhao Ji was furious, so he made up his mind and sent someone to the tunnel to see if the thief who came and went without a trace came in from the tunnel, and by the way, he went to the Zuixing Building to see if his confidante had been hurt by the hateful thief......
