As soon as Zhao Ji's words fell, he felt a faint fragrant breeze hit him, penetrating his heart and spleen, and then another whisper gently and softly drilled into his ears.

"Your Majesty, that day, the concubine heard that Wang Zhenren Shou Anhou is His Majesty's protector god, and now it is just the words of the Taifu, why don't you summon Shou Anhou into the palace first to ask for clarification, and then it is not too late to convict?"

Zhao Ji was originally angry, and he couldn't wait to catch Zhao Hao and kick him to roll all over the ground to relieve his hatred, and when he heard Master Li's whispered words, the voice was so sweet that his bones were crispy, and his heart fluttered at the moment, and he immediately calmed down.

At this time, Liang Shicheng was about to let people go out to deliver the message, Yang Jian's eyes had secretly shown joy, but he heard Zhao Ji hurriedly shout "Slow", Yang Jian couldn't help but change his expression slightly.

I saw Zhao Ji sigh slightly, waved his hand and said: "Don't be in a hurry to arrest him first, he is a disciple of the clan and a member of the third grade, I am not afraid that he will run away, so I will send a decree to Zhao Hao to enter Beijing immediately and enter the palace to see me!" ”

Liang Shicheng said urgently: "Obey!" ”

Yang Jian saw that he had finally aroused Zhao Ji's anger, but at this moment he calmed down, and he was very unwilling in his heart, and called "Your Majesty" again.

was about to speak, but was interrupted by Zhao Ji waving his hand: "You have worked hard all the way, go back and rest first, Zhao Hao's matter, I have my own plans." ”

Yang Jian wanted to say something, but he heard Liang Shicheng beside him say in a low voice: "Taifu, please!" ”

Yang Jian had no choice but to quit.

Zhao Ji looked at Yang Jian's departing back, his face couldn't help but be clouded, and his brows were furrowed.

Zhao Hao, Zhao Hao, how bold you are, this time the leak you poked is too big, even I can't stop it...... Taizu swears a cup of testament, even I don't dare to disobey it......

Thou shalt not kill the doctor or the person who wrote the book!

If the descendants have this oath, the sky will die, the sky will die, and the sky will die......

You're playing with fire and setting yourself on fire!

Just when Zhao Jizheng's face was full of depression, a small eunuch hurriedly rushed in outside the door: "Your Majesty, Jin Shangshu asks to see you!" ”

Zhao Ji looked stunned: This old guy, the decree can't be delivered, it's quite fast to run back......

"Biography!"

"Whoa!"

Immediately afterwards, Jin Chongluo rushed in and saluted forward: "Weichen meets the saint, may the saint live forever!" ”

Zhao Ji snorted coldly and asked, "Jin Shangshu, I asked you to go to Luoyang to deliver the decree, what was the result?" ”

Jin Chongluo said with a sad face: "Qiqi official family, Weichen is guilty...... Wei Chen was a step late, and when he arrived at the court, Zhao Hao had already ordered the execution, and before Wei Chen could speak, the head had all fallen to the ground......

Zhao Ji said angrily: "Really? The news I got was that Zhao Hao resisted in public? ”

Jin Chongluo said angrily: "Which Wang Balamb made a rumor? When Wechen arrived, three cannons had been fired, and the sound of the cannons shook the world, how did Wechen pass the decree? Which ill-intentioned traitor dared to frame Shou Anhou like this, could it be that Weichen knew better than Weichen about the purpose he preached? This person framed the clan and should be held accountable! ”

Zhao Ji has always been a little polite to this stubborn old man, but now he is a little stunned when he sees Jin Chongluo scolding him in person.

However, he quickly came back to his senses, and the old man avoided the serious, and immediately asked angrily: "Zhao Hao killed nearly 100 scholars and more than 100 officials without authorization, what should he be guilty of?" Taizu's testament is not to kill scholars, I have not killed a single scholar doctor in the 150 years since the founding of the country, and now he has killed 97 people at a time, so how can I deal with it? What sin should you be guilty of if you fail to do your job? ”

Jin Chongluo did not give in: "Shou'an Hou has only been in the office for a year, how can I learn about Taizu's legacy?" When His Majesty passed on the sword of Shou An Hou Shangfang, he was given the right to cut first and then play, but did he explain that he could not kill the doctor without permission? What's more, they embezzled the disaster grain and filled their own pockets, causing hundreds of thousands of innocent people on the Jingbei Road to die innocently in vain, starving all over the wilderness, thousands of miles of red land, and new graves all over the mountains. ”

When Zhao Ji heard this, yo, this old man with a stinky and stubborn temper actually carried the pot on me, and couldn't help but get angry, pointing at Jin Chongluo and saying angrily: "Even if they deserve death, then where is the evidence of the crime?" How do I know if he is not abusing his power and killing people? ”

When he was angry, Jin Chongluo was not angry, a sly smile appeared on his face, he took out a brocade box from his sleeve, and said slowly: "If there is no evidence of guilt, how dare Weichen favor Shou Anhou?" Wechen has brought the evidence of the crime, and asked His Majesty to see it in person. ”

Zhao Ji looked stunned, but Liang Shicheng on the side understood, and said to the little eunuch beside him: "You wait to retreat." ”

After the eunuchs retreated, Liang Shicheng glanced at Li Shishi and Xiao Cuixiang again, Zhao Ji seemed to understand, and said, "You can also retreat and wait in the side hall." ”

Master Li and Xiao Cuixiang glanced at each other, and also retreated.

Liang Shicheng glanced at Jin Chongluo with an ambiguous expression, took the brocade box, and after opening it, he saw that it was still just a piece of paper, and he already understood in his heart that his expression became more and more ambiguous.

After Liang Shicheng confirmed that there was no abnormality in the brocade box, he handed it to Zhao Ji.

Zhao Ji took the brocade box, took out the piece of paper, unfolded it, and couldn't help but be moved.

The total amount of money and food is 12 million, and there are jewelry, calligraphy and paintings, and countless treasures!

This incriminating evidence is even more ironclad than the previous one......

The taxes of the Song Dynasty were very high, but the highest annual tax was only 160 million guan, but the huge tax revenue was followed by huge expenses, in fact, from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, the money and grain in the treasury did not exceed 10 million guan.

Zhao Hao got 12 million yuan, as well as countless rare treasures, jewelry, calligraphy and paintings, all of which are Zhao Ji's beloved things, so how can Zhao Ji not be moved.

If it weren't for the murder of the doctor, Zhao Ji would have kissed Zhao Hao and treated him as his own son. You must know that the Huashi Gang, which made a lot of noise back then, damaged the foundation of the Great Song Dynasty, and it was only two or three million yuan a year that fell into the hands of Zhao Ji......

Zhao Ji looked at the gift list, his eyes were full of little stars, he was intoxicated with the windfall and couldn't help himself, it took a long time to react, his expression became worried again, and he sighed and said: "Of course, the evidence is ironclad, so what...... Taizu's oath and testament, even I can't violate it...... Even if I let him go, the other ministers, clans, and even the world's scholars may not agree......"

Jin Chongluo saw that Zhao Ji's tone had loosened, and he couldn't help but scold secretly: Childe said that having money can not only make ghosts push the grind, but also make the grind push the ghosts, and now it is really ...... Childe is pinching the seven inches of the official's family......

scolded and scolded, and said cautiously in his mouth: "Shou'an Hou Dao, this matter started by him, since he bears the responsibility, and asks the official family for three days, he will give an explanation to the official family, the clan and the ministers, and the world's scholars!" After three days, it was left to the official family to convict and dispose of it. ”

Zhao Ji showed a puzzled look in his eyes, looked at Jin Chongluo in a daze, looked at the gift list in his hand, and finally nodded and said: "Okay, I will give him three days to see how he justifies himself, and if he does not explain after three days, he will take away his official title, expel him from the clan, and be demoted to a commoner!" ”

……

The next day, Zhao Ji stayed up late because he spent the night with Master Li and Xiao Cuixiang last night.

After washing up and using breakfast, Zhao Ji stretched his waist and was about to go out, but he saw Liang Shicheng looking at him with a strange expression and waving his hand vigorously.

Zhao Ji was puzzled: "If you have something to say, please speak." ”

Liang Shicheng said helplessly: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid you won't be able to get out......"

Zhao Ji frowned: "Someone rebelled? ”

Liang Shicheng smiled bitterly: "My husband led the ministers to kneel at the door of the dormitory early in the morning, asking for punishment Shou Anhou, and it has been half an hour now......"

Zhao Ji's face instantly became gloomy, paced a few steps in the hall, thought for a long time, seemed to have made up his mind, walked quickly to the door of the palace, and shouted in a deep voice: "Open the door!" ”

The corners of Liang Shicheng's mouth twitched, and he had to helplessly signal the little eunuch to open the door.

The two Zhu doors slowly opened, and Zhao Ji walked out slowly, looking down at the steps, and couldn't help but gasp.

I saw a large number of officials kneeling down in the audience, and the ones who knelt at the front, headed by Cai Jing, were all first-class officials.

Husband Cai Jing, Taifu Yang Jian, Dazai Yu Shen, left minister Bai Shizhong, right minister Li Bangyan...... They are all first-class members.

These old foxes seem to have come prepared, and they just knelt on the ground to petition, and they actually came one by one with soft futons, which is a posture to do a big job......

Looking carefully, Zhao Ji became more and more uneasy, because on the other side, led by Shaozai Wang Fu, Zhongshu Shilang Zhang Bangchang, Shaobao Cai You and others, Tong Guan, Liang Shicheng and other party members also knelt down at the bottom of the steps.

And what surprised Zhao Ji even more was that further aside, there were also many people from the Qingliu Party, as far as he knew, they were Zhao Hao's loyal fans!

Could it be that Zhao Hao has betrayed his relatives and left him?

Zhao Ji shook his head, only to feel that his heart was empty and unsteady.

At this moment, some of the ministers under the stairs finally looked up and saw Zhao Ji, and immediately raised their heads one by one.

Cai Jing took the lead in attacking: "Your Majesty, Shou'an Hou Zhao Hao, abused his power, brutalized Zhongliang, and ignored the Taizu oath monument, killed 97 scholars and doctors without permission, and resisted the decree in public, bullied the king, and asked Your Majesty to punish Shou'an Hou for the crime, with the heart of hundreds of officials and thousands of scholars in the world!" ”

Immediately afterwards, Yu Shen also said loudly: "The ancestral system is the foundation of the country; Doctor, the cornerstone of my dynasty is also! Today, Shou Anhou is bold and reckless, the foundation of the country, the cornerstone of the country, the crime is unforgivable, and please ask Your Majesty to take the country and the society as the priority, and punish Shou Anhou! ”

Afterwards, hundreds of people shouted in unison: "Please punish Shou Anhou!" ”

At this moment, there was a huge voice next to him: "Shou Anhou eliminates violence and peace, for the country and the people, what a crime!" ”

Zhao Ji looked up and saw more than a dozen Qing factions, although there were not many of them, their voices were neat and loud, and their momentum was not inferior to Cai Jing's party.

As for Wang Hao and the others, although they also knelt next to Cai Jing and his party, they didn't say a word, and they didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd.

Zhao Ji saw that the three factions were not one, and his heart was a little relieved.

Liang Shicheng on the side waited until everyone's voices had stopped, and said angrily: "Shou Anhou is guilty or not, Your Majesty should find out and punish yourself." Are you kneeling down to stop the dormitory, do you want to rebel? ”

Before the words fell, someone shouted angrily: "It is a matter of the foundation of the country, why can't we wait to kneel on the ground to petition?" ”

This is still reasonable, and the irrational ones are even more directly scolded in the crowd of steers and steers, the Song Dynasty claimed to share the world with scholars, and those officials from the imperial examination, if they usually were a little afraid of Liang Shicheng one-on-one, now that so many people are together, they naturally don't take him seriously.

Zhao Ji saw that there was a mess at the bottom of the stairs, and he couldn't help but be furious, and snorted coldly: "You can just kneel later!" ”

After saying that, he turned around and went back to the dormitory.

A thunderous shout sounded behind him: "If you don't cure the sin of Shou Anhou, we will never get up!" ”

Back in the main hall, Zhao Ji was depressed and lay on the couch, muttering to himself: "In such a situation, I'm afraid I won't be able to support it for three days, you ask for more blessings......"

At this moment, I saw a little eunuch hurriedly entering, and said urgently: "Your Majesty, thousands of students in Bianliang City, all kneeling down in front of the Xuande Gate, asking for punishment Shou Anhou!" ”

Zhao Ji's face changed again, and his expression became more and more anxious.
