Chapter 805: Hanlin Department and Gang "Plus 8/31"
The next day, Zhao Hongrun got up early. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
Today, he is in a good mood.
Because the sixth uncle, Zhao Yuanyan, had clearly assured him last night that the murder of Zhou Yan, the secretary of the Criminal Department, had nothing to do with the sixth uncle.
This made Zhao Hongrun really relieved.
You must know that in Zhao Hongrun's mind, the status of this sixth uncle is higher than that of his father in the Vertical Arch Palace, if the case of Zhou Yan, the secretary of the Criminal Department, really involves this sixth uncle, to put it mildly, if it is the hand of this sixth uncle, Zhao Hongrun really doesn't know how to deal with it.
Fortunately, Uncle Liuwang is still the Uncle Liuwang in his memory, and nothing has changed.
In addition, I also happened to learn some of the things that Uncle Liuwang used to do, for example, Uncle Liuwang, who has read countless women now, was actually a shy teenager ten or twenty years ago, this strong contrast, every time I think of Zhao Hongrun, I can't stop laughing.
At this time, Zong Wei Mu Qing ran in, holding a wooden box in his hand.
"Your Highness, An Ling has sent a letter."
While saying this, Mu Qing opened the wooden box and handed one of the letters to Zhao Hongrun.
Zhao Hongrun raised his eyebrows and took the letter unsurprisingly.
In Anling, he didn't have any friends who exchanged letters, but he had an elder who could be called an acquaintance, that is, his third uncle Zhao Laiyu.
This elder used to be the Zongzheng of the Zongfu and had been in charge of the Zongfu for more than 20 years, so Zhao Hongrun felt that this old man must know what happened to the second year of Hongde.
So a few days ago, Zhao Hongrun sent someone to write a letter to Zhao Laiyu, the third uncle of Anling, asking about this matter.
"Huh?"
Zhao Hongrun opened the letter and glanced at it twice, and his brows suddenly wrinkled.
Because the third uncle clearly pointed out in the letter that he was aware of the turmoil that occurred in the second year of Hongde, but he could not disclose it to Zhao Hongrun.
Moreover, Zhao Laiyu repeatedly told Zhao Hongrun not to meddle in this matter in the letter, and even vaguely reminded that this matter was a rebellion that his father, Emperor Wei Tianzi, would never allow anyone to mention.
β¦β¦
After reading the letter throughout, Zhao Hongrun frowned and lit the letter in an oil lamp and threw it into the brazier to burn it.
Cao Zhi, the former secretary of the Ministry of Works, Li Fei, the secretary of the Ministry of War, the sixth uncle, and the third uncle......
In fact, many people know what happened to Hongde's second year of Liang, but for various reasons, no one dares to mention it, let alone reveal it to him.
Even the clues from the third uncle were broken......
Zhao Hongrun paced back and forth in the hall worriedly.
It is undeniable that he does have some intelligence, but the problem is that he knows too few clues, even if he wants to track down the murder of Shangshu Zhouyan of the Criminal Department, bring the real murderer to justice, or kill him to avenge Shangshu Zhouyan, he has no clue.
"Where else can I find a clue?"
Zhao Hongrun muttered to himself.
Suddenly, he seemed to think of something, and a few gleams of light bloomed in his eyes.
He said happily: "Mu Qing, call Shangwei Jiao and them, and go to a place with this king, where you may be able to find any clues." β
"Yes!"
At the same time, in the apse of the vertical arch hall, Wei Tianzi was holding a cup of tea, listening to the various reports of the great eunuch Tong Xian.
ββ¦β¦ Your Majesty, last night, when King Yi went to a banquet in the mansion of the wealthy gentleman Cui in the city, His Royal Highness King Su waited in his mansion, and the uncle and nephew chatted for a long time in the carriage. β
Sixth? β¦β¦ So late, what did Hongrun's bad son do when he went to find the sixth child?
Wei Tianzi stroked the tea cup in his hand, squinted his eyes and asked, "What did they talk about?" β
Tong Xian lowered his head, shook his head and said: "At that time, His Royal Highness King Su was closely protected by Shangshui Green Crows, and the people under the old slave were afraid of causing misunderstandings, so they didn't dare to get too close to ......."
"Oh......" Wei Tianzi responded, squinting his eyes and not knowing what he was thinking.
Seeing this, Tong Xian whispered beside him: "Is Your Majesty worried that the Sixth Prince will reveal anything to His Royal Highness King Su?" β
Sixth? Heh, as long as Yulong is still there, he doesn't have the courage to rebel......
Glancing at Tong Xian, Wei Tianzi asked lightly, "What do you think?" β
"The old slave thinks that the sixth prince will not reveal it to His Royal Highness King Su, Your Majesty, you know, the sixth prince has no heirs, and he has always regarded His Royal Highness King Su as a ......" Speaking of this, Tong Xian secretly glanced at the expression of the Son of Heaven, and saw that he showed no signs of anger, so he cautiously continued: "The old slave thinks that the sixth prince will not want His Royal Highness King Su to be involved in that matter. β
"Hmm......"
Nodding, Wei Tianzi replied casually.
Seeing this, Tong Xian said again: "But the sixth prince is there...... It seems that there is indeed a group of people. β
"It doesn't matter." Wei Tianzi said lightly: "The sixth will not be disobedient, compared to those remnants...... Find them for me, dead or alive. β
"Yes, Your Majesty." Tong Xian replied in a low voice.
Suddenly, Wei Tianzi opened his mouth and asked, "By the way, what is the strength of Hongrun's inferior Shangshui Green Crow?" β
"Pretty remarkable." Tong Xian's wrinkled face showed a little smile, and he praised: "At the beginning, the people under the old slave went to test, and five people against five people couldn't take advantage of it...... Speaking of which, the sleeve arrow that everyone in Shangshui Green Crow has, that is really a sharp weapon. β
Hearing this, Wei Tianzi's eyes showed a little pride, and he waved his hand and said: "Since it is a sharp weapon, ask the Palace Construction Bureau to also imitate some people who are equipped with your inner guard, but Hugh must be known by Hongrun, you know, that kid will feel a headache if he gets up......"
"Your Majesty rest assured." Tong Xian owed a debt and said with a smile: "The leader of the Shangshui Green Crow seems to have guessed who the people under the old slave are. β
"Well, that's good." Wei Tianzi nodded.
At this time, a little eunuch hurriedly walked into the apse and whispered a few words in Tong Xian's ear.
Wei Tianzi didn't speak, just took a sip of tea by himself.
"You stand down first." Tong Xian sent the little eunuch back, and then leaned over and said to Wei Tianzi: "Your Majesty, I just got the news that His Royal Highness King Su took his guards to the Hanlin Bureau. As His Majesty expected, His Royal Highness King Su is compiling historical documents......"
"That bad boy, there is only one way left. β¦β¦ What I told you to do, did you do it? β
The corners of Wei Tianzi's mouth raised a little smile, probably because he felt happy every time he walked in front of his brilliant son.
Hearing this, Tong Xian owed a debt and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, rest assured, His Royal Highness King Su will never find any record of the incident in the second year of Hongde in the historical documents of the Hanlin Administration......
"Good." Wei Tianzi nodded with satisfaction, but then, he frowned again, and said with a little worry: "However, this is not a solution after all. β¦β¦ Tong Xian, call Dali Temple to close the case. β
Tong Xian's eyes showed a little surprise, but then, he lowered his head and bowed, "Yes, Your Majesty." β
At the same time, as the inner chamberlain inquired about the news, Zhao Hongrun did bring the guards to the Hanlin Bureau.
The Hanlin Bureau, also known as the Hanlin Academy, is a special department under the Ministry of Rites, which is responsible for cultivating talents, revising books and writing history, drafting edicts and other matters, and is a famous and noble place in the imperial court.
To put it bluntly, this is a court yamen with a very high threshold and a very high reputation, but there is nothing to be fished.
This is not only a concentration of scholars, but also one of the places where the old ministers of the court and the central government go to retire, with high and low power, but it can be called a holy place in the minds of the scholars of the Wei State.
Whether a scholar has ever joined the Hanlin Department does not affect his development in the court, but it directly affects the status and reputation of this famous scholar in Shilin; On the other hand, if an official has never entered the Hanlin Administration, even if he becomes a scholar, the noble scholars and officials in the Hanlin Administration will not sincerely accommodate him.
In Zhao Hongrun's words, the most noble, stubborn, and unruly scholars of the Wei State are concentrated here, and they are all stubborn and hard-headed scholars.
Therefore, the Hanlin Department was only ranked below the Imperial Historian in the list of departments that Zhao Hongrun did not want to contact the most.
You can imagine how much he hated this place.
But hate is hate, and when he came here, Zhao Hongrun inevitably evoked some memories.
Especially when he happened to bump into a familiar history writer.
"Su ...... His Royal Highness King Su ......"
Maybe I didn't expect that after many years, I would meet a certain His Royal Highness King Su again, and the little official who wrote history hurriedly saluted Zhao Hongrun after being stunned for a moment, his face was full of embarrassment.
This person is none other than He Xinxian, the grandson of He Xiangxu, the original Chinese scholar he met when Zhao Hongrun was pulled to the Yafeng Poetry Club by his sixth brother Zhao Hongzhao.
As soon as he saw this person, Zhao Hongrun's complexion sank, and his original good mood suddenly disappeared without a trace.
After all, back then, it was this kid who fell in love with Princess Yulong at the beginning, and asked Zhao Hongrun to match him, but he didn't expect that in the end, this kid retreated from the battle, causing Zhao Hongrun and Princess Yulong to blow a cold wind outside the city for a night, and it made Princess Yulong sad for a while.
In view of this kind of species, how could Zhao Hongrun give him a good look?
I have to say that seeing He Xinxian greet him with a smile, Zhao Hongrun really can't wait to punch this guy.
But it's better to think about it, firstly, that incident has passed, and secondly, the He family may have been warned by Wei Tianzi at that time, otherwise He Xinxian would not have gotten married so soon, as for the third, Zhao Hongrun felt that he was also a little naΓ―ve at that time, and he thought about things too simply.
Therefore, Zhao Hongrun exhaled and said hello to He Xinxian: "Long time no see, Gongzi He, how are you doing lately?" β
"His Royal Highness King Su......" He Xinxian was a little moved, after all, once upon a time, he always felt that he would be hated by His Royal Highness King Su.
"It's, it's okay." He Xinxian nodded, and then, in order to hide the embarrassment in his heart, he diverted the topic and asked, "His Royal Highness King Su came to my Hanlin Department today, I don't know what happened?" β
Zhao Hongrun thought about it, and then said truthfully: "This king wants to check the historical documents ......"
Hearing this, He Xinxian hurriedly said: "If His Royal Highness King Su does not give up, he is willing to lead the way for His Royal Highness." β
Zhao Hongrun glanced at He Xinxian, knowing that the other party wanted to alleviate the bad relationship caused by the events of the year, and did not veto, after all, He Xinxian was a historian of the Hanlin Administration, and he knew more about historical documents than him.
"Then there is Lao He Gongzi."
"Don't dare. β¦β¦ His Royal Highness King Su is here, please. (To be continued.) )
