Jin Wuwei camp, when Sima Tang heard Yang Zhengwu's words, his eyes were so anxious that his eyes were almost red, and he asked in a trembling voice: "That...... What can I do? ”

Sima Tang Yang Zhengwu pondered for a while, and said: "At present, the painting boat is sailing in the Luo River, which is naturally inconvenient for us to attack, and now there are more than 90 students still on the boat, and we are also allowed to throw a mouse trap, so we have to immediately report this news to the political affairs hall to know, and the prime minister will adjudicate it." ”

"Good!" Sima Tang also knew such a big thing, and Yang Zhengwu didn't dare to make decisions at will, so he hurriedly nodded and said, "Without further ado, I also ask Brother Yang to accompany me to the political affairs hall." ”

Yang Zhengwu nodded, hurriedly got out of the big tent, turned over and got on the horse neatly, rode with Sima Tang, and galloped towards the palace.

The Imperial City Government Hall is located in Shangshu Province, which is the place where the prime ministers of the imperial court gather their offices, and it is also the center of the political affairs of the entire Great Qi.

Now those who can become the prime minister of Daqi, in addition to the Shangshu Ling, Zhongshu Ling, and the servants of the subordinates, there are also two ministers in charge of the finances of Daqi, and two privy envoys of the Privy Council.

At the same time, according to the actual situation of the court, the Son of Heaven can also make the three products under the Tongzhongshu Sect or the Pingzhang Affair under the Tongzhongshu Sect, and send other ministers to the cabinet as ministers.

Therefore, in addition to the above-mentioned prime ministers with real power, the other prime ministers of Daqi also include Tongzhongshu Menxia Sanpin, the Ministry of Officials Shangshu Ouyang Xiu, Tongzhongshu Menxia Pingzhangshi, Hanlin Yuan Chengzhi Dong Chenyu, and Tongzhongshu Menxia Pingzhangshi, the deputy envoy of the privy envoy Xie Junhao.

Because of the need to deal with urgent matters at all times, the prime minister on duty will be left in the government hall every day.

Today's prime minister on duty is Sima Guang, the secretary of the Chinese book.

As a figure who has been praised as a "prodigy" by his neighbors since he was a child, Sima Guang can be described as a famous minister of Daqi.

Sima Guang was born in Gwangsan, Gwangju, and at this time his father Sima Chi served as the commander of Gwangsan County, so he was named Guang.

When he was six years old, Sima Chi taught Sima Guang to read, and at the age of seven, Sima Guang could not only recite "Zuo's Spring and Autumn", but also understand the essence of the book, and made a "smashing the cylinder to save friends", which shook Jingluo, and was known as a rare young genius.

What is even more talked about is that when Sima Guang was thirteen years old, he set off from Luoyang with his father Sima Chi to Lizhou as a transfer envoy, and met a giant python on the Qinling plank road.

When the guards were all disrespectful, Sima Guang calmly held a sharp sword and plunged into the tail of the giant python, which shocked the python in pain and rolled down the unfathomable river under the plank road, so that the passage was unimpeded.

After this incident, Sima Guang's reputation became even greater, and at the age of eighteen, he passed the imperial examination, and then became a local official, which was more than ten years.

During the reign of Taizong, Fan Zhongyan was in power, and after seeing and understanding Sima Guang's talent, he transferred him to Luoyang as an official, and praised him and Wang Anshi as good talents of Ke'an Daqi.

Now, Fan Zhongyan has already hung up his crown, as he said, Wang Anshi and Sima Guang, whom he admires, have become the prime ministers of Great Qi.

It's a pity that these two prime ministers, who both have amazing talents, have to say that it is a pity because of the inheritance of the throne and the competition for changing the law.

At that time, the night was getting deeper, the lights in the imperial city were blurred, the silver glow was patchy, and the layers of palaces were like connected deep mountains and valleys, filling with a bleak and cold autumn day.

Sima Guang sat alone in front of the wide bookcase to deal with official business, and the dim light of the dim light shone on his old face full of ravines, and he spent countless nights like this with this famous minister.

At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves was urgent, and it seemed that a fast horse was rushing towards the government hall.

Sima Guang has been in politics for a long time, so he naturally knows the rules of not riding horses in the imperial city, and he can ride the imperial city, and it is still late at night, so there is no need to ask for an urgent military situation.

After thinking for a while, Sima Guang got up resolutely, bypassed the long case and took off his official hat from the hanger next to him, and put his hands on his head, without the slightest dishevel due to being on duty.

This is Sima Guang, who has a strict temperament and is old-fashioned and serious, which is different from Wang Anshi's free and easy magnification.

When everything was ready, Sima Guang came to the courtyard, and saw the two of them striding under the guidance of the officials of the political hall.

The lantern under the porch emitted a faint halo, but Sima Guang could easily see the person who came, after all, this figure was too familiar to him, so he blurted out and asked in a deep voice: "Zijian, what is the intention of coming to the political hall so late?" ”

Zijian is Sima Tang's word, he walked a few steps quickly to the bottom of the porch, looked at his father Sima Guang standing here, and immediately showed an anxious look, and said quickly: "Daddy, something big has happened in the city." ”

As soon as Sima Guang saw that in addition to Sima Tang, there was also Yang Zhengwu, the general on duty at Jinwuwei tonight, his face suddenly sank, and he said, "Don't worry, go, come in and say." ”

Sima Tang nodded, and walked into Sima Guang's office with Yang Zhengwu, he had no intention of sitting down at all, and opened his mouth like pouring beans from a bamboo tube: "Daddy, tonight, more than 90 children and Guozi eunuch students took a painting boat to travel to Luohe, but they didn't expect to be kidnapped by a group of unknown bandits. ”

"What?" Rao is Sima Guang's calmness, and when he heard the news, he couldn't help but change his complexion, Huo Ran stood up and said solemnly, "There are bandits kidnapping Tai Student? How long is the thing? ”

Sima Tang replied hurriedly: "In just half an hour, because a few students did not listen to the words of the bandits, they have been brutally killed, Daddy, these are dozens of living lives, and the little sister is also on that painting boat, please find a way to rescue them immediately." ”

As soon as he heard that his daughter was also held hostage by gangsters, Sima Guang's face was much more ugly, but he was the kind of person who talked about the overall situation at a critical moment, and he would never sway his thinking for the sake of his children's private affairs. Also, the key question is how many of them are? ”

Sima Tang replied restlessly: "According to General Yang, these bandits seem to be from the Ming Sect, and at that time, the child only saw the bandits guarding the hall, about twenty people, and as for the other thieves in the painting boat, the child did not know. ”

At the end of the voice, Yang Zhengwu Zhengrong interjected: "Prime Minister Sima, the most important thing now is that the lives of the students are pinched in the hands of the Mingjiao bandits, so let's really throw a mouse bogey, and the painting boat is driving in the Luo River, whether it is a sneak attack or a strong attack to rescue, it is very inconvenient." ”
