Chapter 787: Imperial Intelligence Agency Capabilities

In fact, now Li Nan really doesn't care about the departure or stay of Huizong Zhao Ji, because since the National Defense Staff has begun to plan the war between the two countries, it means that the general trend has been decided, and the presence or absence of the emperor of the Song Kingdom will not change anything.

Just when Zhao Ji was still thinking about the pros and cons of returning to China, a person walked out of the Imperial Wenchen train of His Royal Highness.

This person is slightly chubby, wearing a purple imperial official robe, with no crown on his bald head, a ruddy complexion, and looks kind-eyed, it is the director of the Imperial Intelligence Agency, the eight-clawed spider Varys.

With a harmless smile on his fat face, Varys slowly walked in front of Zhao Ji and handed over a document full of handwriting in his hand.

"What is this?" Zhao Ji asked suspiciously.

"Hahaha, nothing." Varys glanced at Li Bangyan and the others and replied with a smile: "This is just a record of the secret discussion between Zhao Huan and several close ministers of the Song State some time ago, because it involves you, so please take a look." ”

"Secret? Is it still involved? Zhao Ji noticed the point of Varys's words, and immediately took the document and read it.

Varys did not deceive Zhao Ji, after so many years, the intelligence network he set up had already covered all countries, and even penetrated into the palaces of those countries, regardless of the money and a large amount of welfare remuneration.

Zhao Ji opened the file and saw that it was written:

On March 27, the ministers gathered in the Yanhe Hall to discuss how to deal with the capture of Emperor Zhao Ji by the Empire, and how to deal with Emperor Taishang.

Geng Nanzhong, who had been in the East Palace for ten years and was also Qinzong's most trusted courtier, proposed that Emperor Taishang should be welcomed back from the empire at all costs in order to protect the status of Qinzong Zhao Huan and avoid extraneous branches.

And said: When the Emperor Taishang returns to the Song Kingdom, he should first remove the left and right servants around the Emperor Taishang, and make an announcement at the gate of Longde Palace: Those who dare to stay will be killed! And the emperor was extremely searched by his attendants to prevent accidents, and then put him under house arrest in the palace, prohibiting anyone from visiting, and sending guards to guard the palace day and night, etc.

Regarding Geng Nanzhong's proposal, Li Gang, who has a strong personality, did not object to the house arrest of the emperor, but he thought that it should not be done so excessively, so he objected on the spot.

Li Gang thought, "If you don't just follow the usual law, you don't need to show suspicion like this." I will want to prevent it, but I am afraid that there will be those who cannot be prevented. ”

Geng Nanzhong defended: "Yi" said: "Or, doubt, the ancients were unavoidable. ”

Li Gang retorted: "Although the ancients were not exempt from doubt, they were more valuable than having a decision, so the "Book" has doubts, and the "Yi" said: to judge the doubts of the world. Suspicion and incomprehension, such as the so-called thief, are not detailed. ”

After the two argued on this matter, Geng Nanzhong was not convinced and still chattered on and on.

Li Gang didn't continue to pay attention to him, but said directly to Song Qinzong: "The reason of the world is just sincerity and suspicion, light and darkness. Honesty is clear, clarity is more sincerity, self-sincerity and clear push, can be as far as Yao Shun. Doubt is dark, dark is more suspicious, self-doubt and secret pushing, its trouble is unspeakable. Geng Nanzhong should assist His Majesty with the way of Yao Shun, but his people are secretly suspicious, and what he says is not enough. ”

When Song Qinzong heard this, he smiled noncommittally, while Geng Nanzhong was furious.

After everyone dispersed that day, Song Qinzong summoned Li Gang and Geng Nanzhong and others into the Rui Si Palace.

After giving the tea, Geng Nanzhong suddenly said: "The minister met Zuo Si and Chen Gongfu in the opposite class, and the public assistant was the one who was in charge of the people with Li Gang on February 5, how could he be punished?" Begging to send the Imperial Monument to the root of the cure. ”

Song Qinzong and many other ministers were stunned when they heard this.

Li Gang was furious, he didn't expect Geng Nanzhong to turn up old things to hit himself because of political disputes, he immediately said to Song Qinzong: "The minister just argued with Nanzhong in the Yanhe Palace, which is really a state affair, not selfish, and Nanzhong has a hatred for the minister's words, so he has this performance." The matter of Fu Que, His Majesty has always been inspected, and the minister did not dare to distinguish again, but the minister took the risk of being a cardinal assistant to the courtier, and Yang Ho Teda knew that he could not make up for it. If this is the case with Nanzhong's words, Chen An dares to stay! I am willing to send you to the division with public and auxiliary affairs, and the ministers have to beg for sin. ”

Song Qinzong said with a smile: "Fuque Shishu is hundreds of millions, how to structure? I know that you don't have to. ”

However, Geng Nanzhong still did not give up on Li Gang afterwards.

After reading this thing, Zhao Ji's heart felt as if he had been poured cold water and then placed in the winter outdoors.

He was not interested in the dispute between Li Gang and Geng Nanzhong in the records, he was concerned about how Zhao Huan of Qinzong would treat him after he returned.

Thinking that even if he returned to China, he would be firmly locked in the Longde Palace for the rest of his life, and he couldn't help but be angry from his heart, and he threw the pile of documents on Li Bangyan's body with all his might, and said angrily: "I don't want to go back!" ”

Li Bangyan didn't understand why Zhao Ji became so angry when he saw something, but he also guessed that it was mostly related to Qinzong, so he hurriedly explained: "The Emperor Taishang is angry, some things are not necessarily true, maybe this is someone else's slander." ”

"Hehehe......" The eight-clawed spider Wallis said with a smile: "Li Zhengenvoy said that it was slanderous words, why don't you three Song envoys come to take a look, and then tell me whether they are all slanderous words." ”

Li Bangyan, Tang Ke and Li Gang were indeed very curious about what made Zhao Ji angry, and since they had Varys's permission, they immediately got together to watch.

When Qinzong was discussing how to deal with Emperor Zhao Ji, Li Bangyan, Tang Ke, and Li Gang were all present, so when they saw that every sentence recorded in this document, and even the demeanor and tone of each person's speech, were accurately described, they couldn't help but gasp.

You must know how to deal with the Emperor Taishang of the Song State that day was discussed, so not only were the people involved carefully selected, but also the guards and servants were retired, but they were so cautious, and everything was still understood by the empire.

From this incident, the three extremely smart Song Chen can infer many things.

For example, among the close ministers trusted by Qinzong, there must have been people who have defected to the empire and secretly spread all the news here, but now I just don't know who it is, and I don't know how many people have defected to the enemy.

Moreover, since the empire was able to learn the content of the secret meeting of the Qin Emperor, it meant that the court and the number, equipment and deployment of the army had already been understood, and on the way to intelligence, the Song State had already suffered a crushing defeat before the battle.

In this world, it can be said that every country attaches great importance to intelligence, the Song State has a special Imperial City Division to deal with these things, the Western Xia also has the Silver Harrier Department, the Jin State has the Dongqing Academy, and so on.

The intelligence departments of these countries have only two duties, one is to listen to all valuable intelligence at home and abroad, and the other is to eliminate the secret spies who have infiltrated their own countries.

In terms of obtaining information, Wallis, the eight-clawed spider who is good at this, has done a good job, and in terms of clearing out his country's secret spies, no country in this era can compare with the Chinese Empire, because Li Nan has a beauty with the ability to detect the mind----
