In the palace, in the vertical arch hall, Zhao Laoer, who had just finished dealing with political affairs, was lying on a Taishi chair and closed his eyes to recuperate. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

A report interrupted him who had just wanted to sleep for a while.

"Your Majesty, Wu De will make Wang Ren come to see you."

Zhao Kuangyin frowned slightly, and said with an unhappy expression: "Xuan." ”

"Yes." Seeing that Zhao Lao Er didn't seem to be in a good mood, the chamberlain didn't dare to say much, so he immediately bowed down and withdrew from the hall, and passed on Wang Ren to meet him.

After a while, Wang Renzhen walked in from the palace gate, stood in the hall, and bowed his hand and said, "Weichen Wang Renzhen, please see Your Majesty." ”

Hearing Wang Rengan's voice, Zhao Kuangyin straightened up from the Taishi chair where he was leaning back, looked at Wang Rengan who was standing in the hall and said, "Wang Qing's family, don't be polite.

Come, sit. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." After Wang Renzhen bowed his hand again, he withdrew and sat down on a Taishi chair carried in by the chamberlain.

Zhao Kuangyin saw Wang Renzhen sitting down, so he asked, "Wang Qing's family, can there be eyebrows?" ”

Wang Renzhen straightened his figure, looked at Zhao Kuangyin and said: "Back to Your Majesty, Mr. Miao has indeed been detained by Li Chongjin, and the name of the external declaration is to keep the imperial envoys to continue to sit in Yangzhou. ”

Zhao Kuangyin snorted lightly: "It's really arrogant. ”

"Your Majesty, before the end of the month, the imperial court had issued an edict to seal Li Chongjin as the Zhongshu order and move to Qingzhou, but he has not yet obeyed the order, and now he has intensified his efforts to openly detain the imperial court envoys, fearing that his rebellion has been revealed.

I hope Your Majesty will make a decision sooner. Wang Renzhen admonished.

Zhao Kuangyin snorted slightly: "Anti-heart? I'm afraid it has already been, at the beginning of April, Li Chongjin ordered Zhai Shouxun to go north to contact Li Yun to do things together, but Zhai Qing and I have always had a friendship, so I told Yu Zhen of this wingman's ambition, otherwise this wingman would have rebelled early. ”

"Your Majesty, Li Chongjin's wolf ambition has long been opposed, and the court needs to take precautions as soon as possible." Wang Renzhen said.

Zhao Kuangyin said: "When the imperial court crusaded against Li Yun, it had sent General Pan to sit in Shouzhou, so as to prevent Li Chongjin from raising troops to advance north, and now the traitor Li Yun has been awarded the head, thinking that he Li Chongjin now has no allies, but he still dares to openly test the bottom line of the imperial court."

This time, I will not give the traitors another chance to raise their troops. ”

"Your Majesty, you are planning to .......," Wang Renzhen said in surprise.

Zhao Kuangyin groaned and said, "Someone is coming." ”

"No." A waiter on duty immediately stepped out to answer.

Zhao Kuangyin said in a deep voice: "Order Shouzhou Pan Mei, soldiers enter Yangzhou, and conquer no ministers." ”

Seeing the chamberlain bow down and retreat, Wang Renzhen went to the Privy Council to issue an edict before he spoke: "Your Majesty, General Pan led an army of only 30,000, and it may be difficult to take down Li Chongjin, a traitor, in one fell swoop. ”

Zhao Kuangyin said in a deep voice: "In the first battle of Zezhou, the imperial court lost too many soldiers, and the forbidden army of the Beijing division urgently needs to recuperate. Only after the end of the month, when the forbidden army of the Beijing Division has finished resting, I will order General Shi to immediately lead the army to help.

Yangzhou has the danger of rivers, and it may be difficult to win in a short period of time, and the imperial court can no longer wait for everything to be perfected before going to crusade against the rebels. ”

There is no difference in essence between the requisition of the unsubordinate and the extermination of the rebels, both are to eliminate the rebels who do not obey the orders of the imperial court, but the statements are very different, the conquest of the unsubordinate is the active behavior of the imperial court, and the extermination of the rebel is a passive act.

Always exterminate the traitors, it is equivalent to saying that the new Great Song Dynasty is unpopular, otherwise how can it rebel everywhere, and the conquest of the unsubordinate is to promote the military force of the imperial court, so as to deter the world.

Since it has been confirmed that Li Chongjin does have the intention of rebellion, it has become inevitable that the imperial court will take the lead.

Under normal circumstances, the emperor first announced the decree, and then the Privy Council and the three divisions drafted the decree, and then after the emperor's approval, the jade seal of the national dynasty was stamped, and the decree was issued to the Privy Council and the three divisions again, and after the review again, the Privy Council seal was stamped, and the will to send troops together was considered to go through the whole procedure.

However, often successive founding emperors, with their own strong influence, this kind of troop dispatch procedure has become a kind of fictitious, only the Privy Council and the three divisions of the decree, and then the emperor stamped the jade seal, the procedure of sending troops is completed.

The chamberlain has gone to announce the decree and asked the Privy Council and the Third Secretary to draw up the will to send troops.

The two monarchs and ministers could only sit and wait for the Privy Council to draw up the will to send troops in advance.

"Wang Qing's house, is this seat still comfortable?" Zhao Lao Er chatted casually.

"Back to Your Majesty, it is indeed more comfortable than a stool." Wang Renzhen replied.

"It's just a pity, such a good talent, who doesn't think about how to serve the court, knows every day that it's hateful to tinker with these strange things." Zhao Lao Er snorted slightly.

Wang Renzhen naturally knew who Zhao Lao Er was talking about, and said with a smile: "Wen Jue, after all, he is not as good as a weak crown, and he is a young man, and he will inevitably like curious and ingenious things." ”

Zhao Lao Er snorted lightly: "Wenjue, what is the situation in prison?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, in the past few days, Lord Wen has been compiling a book called "Hundred Family Names" in his cell, and he is still invested." Wang Renzhen replied. By the way, he took out a book from his bosom and handed it to a chamberlain next to him, so that he could present it.

"Oh, he's very leisurely, but unfortunately his life is about to be lost, so he doesn't plan to struggle." Zhao Lao Er asked. He took the book presented by the chamberlain and gently opened it to look at it carefully.

"Weichen is also strange, it's rare for a young person to look down on life and death." Wang Renzhen looked puzzled. When normal criminals learn that they have been sentenced to death, they are all in a hurry to get angry and do everything possible to get rid of their crimes and get rid of the fate of death.

It can be heard that he is sitting firmly on the Diaoyu Tai, calm as an old man in the twilight.

"Then in the court, can anyone come forward to intercede for him?" Zhao Lao Er asked.

"Back to Your Majesty, there is not a single one." Wang Renzhen smiled bitterly.

"This popularity." Zhao Lao Er said with a smile: "But there are other forces that come to the event." ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the prison of Dali Temple is as solid as a rock, and it is difficult for idle people to enter, and now there is no sign of robbery, nor is there any other force involved in it." Wang Renzhen said.

Zhao Lao Er was puzzled: "Could it be that Wenjue is really alone." ”

"Your Majesty, Wechen never believed that there would be a saint in the world who was born to know, and people's knowledge needs to be inherited, and according to Wechen's investigation, Wenjue's knowledge inheritance is quite strong. A panicked masterpiece "Elementary Arithmetic", which contains all kinds of content.

The poems written are all at your fingertips, but they are all masterpieces that can be sung through the ages.

All kinds of strange and ingenious things, others can get one of them, and they can have no worries about food and clothing for life, but Wen Jue has no intention of secrecy and easily teaches others, which all proves that Wen Jue still has thousands of ravines hidden in his heart. Wang Renzhen said cautiously.

Zhao Lao Er sighed lightly and said, "The people who wrote the words mentioned by Wen Jue have eyebrows? ”

"Back to Your Majesty, under the full investigation of Wu Desi, there is still no trace of Su Shi, Xin Qiji, Uncle Li and others mentioned in Wen Jue's mouth. Please forgive your majesty, this is a dereliction of duty. After pleading guilty, Wang Ren continued: "Your Majesty, there is no one who appears out of thin air in this world, as long as he exists in the world, he will leave a trace.

Weichen suspected that these poems were all written by Wen Jue, but Wen Jue did not want to admit it. ”

Zhao Lao Er shook his head slightly and said: "Learning is not fake, everyone will have their own style of writing, although the poems written by Wen Jue have been bold, but the writing is completely different, obviously these poems are not from the same person's hand." ”

When it comes to the profound issue of literary style, Wang Renzhen, who was born on the street, obviously has no right to speak, and changed the topic: "Your Majesty, in the imperial court, all the officials can trace their origins and writings back to three generations.

But all kinds of signs show that Wenjue's knowledge is inherited.

In Guanlou Village, the greenhouse named by Wenjue is still under large-scale construction, which can make summer vegetables grow in winter, completely contrary to the time of day. ”

"This is nothing unusual, in the palace, Wen Tang Jian is from the same source as it. I'm just curious, such as "Three Character Classic", "Hundred Family Names", "Elementary Arithmetic" These hand-me-down classics are not to be done by Confucianism, Wen Jue is so young, there is absolutely no possibility of reading through the hundred schools, as long as you look at the brush words he writes, you know, it is like a chicken planer. Zhao Lao Er frowned and snorted.

At this moment, Zhao Lao was holding the "Hundred Family Names" written with a brush and reading it, it was originally a good Hongwen, but Zhao Lao Er was completely disgusted by the brush words of Wen.

In fact, there is no way to do it, Dali Temple Prison does not provide charcoal, and the brush words, without special training, it is not easy to write well. In later generations, there were a few people who would specialize in writing calligraphy, and they were mainly written with a hard pen.

The brush is a soft writing instrument, and Wen can't control the direction of its pen at all.

"Your Majesty, it is inevitable that Wenjue has a strong knowledge inheritance, but Weichen is incompetent, and he still has nothing to find. Some time ago, Wen Jue and Tianxiangyuan Xie Lingyun's little lady, in the greenhouse, with Zhang Zhongtian, was outside the wall, vaguely heard Wen Jue mention that he was taught by a master called Xiaoyaozi.

It's just that Xie Xiaoniang is strong in martial arts, and Zhang Yudai didn't dare to get too close, so many of the conversations were unknown. ”

Zhao Lao Er was slightly puzzled: "Xiaoyaozi ........"

"Your Majesty, Weichen will step up the pursuit of this Xiaoyaozi senior, such a virtuous person, that is, Wenjue's teacher, and he must not be left behind by the people." Wang Renzhen said in a deep voice.

Hearing that he has the secret recipe of divine thunder in his hand, it is difficult to guarantee that this Xiaoyaozi will not master it, such a virtuous person, if he cannot be controlled by the imperial court and left behind the people, the threat to the imperial court is too huge.

Once you surrender to the enemy, the consequences are unimaginable.

"Zhao, Qian, Sun, Li, Zhou, Wu, Zheng, Wang, Feng, Chen, Zhen, Wei........" Zhao Lao Er read softly: "Inheritance of origin!" ”

This time, even if you kid want to pat me on the back, but if you want to get away with it, it's not so easy, I want to see if all forces are friends or foes against you. (To be continued.) )
