Chapter 97: Sending Words and Paintings to Get Out (2)

Song Ting asked Song Jiang what kind of trouble Cai Jing had encountered, and he wanted to solve it with his treasured "Qingming Riverside Map".

Song Jiang said: "We secretly sent money to Tong Guan and Cai Jing, so that the two of them could say a few words for Brother Lu Junyi in the court. Tong Guan accepted it, but Cai Jing was unwilling to accept it. ”

Song Ting asked curiously, "Why is Cai Jing unwilling to accept it?"

Song Jiang shook his head and said, "This ...... Song doesn't know, at first glance, he is a cunning old fox, I really can't guess why he is unwilling to take money, or maybe he has made enough......"

Cai Jing has been an official for more than 50 years, served three emperors such as Shenzong, Zhezong, and now Zhao Jinji, and has been a prime minister for 16 or 7 years.

Speaking of this "Battle of Huashi Gang", in fact, the emperor Zhao Jinji liked some strange flowers and trees, strange stones, and Cai Jing ordered these things to be looted all over the country and transported them to Beijing in large quantities for the emperor to enjoy.

At the same time, he messed with the "Birth Gang". To put it bluntly, the "Birthday Gang" is the birthday of the emperor or minister, who collects birthday gifts all over the country and transports them to the capital in batches.

And this "casting ten coins" is a bad idea to make up for the financial deficit, and it is clear that it is to pick up the wool of the common people, cast a copper coin, when ten coins are used, ten coins are one or two, the key is that it cannot have the value of one or two silver, is not to treat the people as fools? In this way, complaints are spreading, the people are not happy, and bandits are everywhere.

Thinking of the wool of the common people, it is the entire Liang that is destroyed, and the Liang is because of these bastard ministers and the mediocre and incompetent "emperor's father-in-law", which has caused internal and external troubles and crises.

Song Jiang may not understand these truths, he simply hates the corruption of Cai Jing and Tong Guan, but Song Ting can see through all this, but it is useless to see through, and it is not that he is in charge of state affairs, and it is difficult to protect himself, and he still worries about state affairs? It's better to worry about state affairs than to go home to accompany the princess's wife......

Retracting his mind, Song Ting scratched his nose and asked again, "Then why was Cai Jing willing to accept it later?"

Song Jiang smiled, leaned closer to the small iron window, and saw that the four guards were relatively far away, and it was impossible to hear what he said, so he said: "We have used a frame-up method."

Song Ting was a little surprised and asked, "What kind of framing method?"

Song Jiang squeezed his eyes and said: "Song asked the 'drum on the commotion' Shi Qian to secretly put this "Qingming Riverside Map" into Cai Jing's study, and then asked the 'Holy Hand Scholar' Xiao Rang to write a letter to Prime Minister Wang Cheng in Cai Jing's handwriting, and then sent someone to pretend to be a member of the Taishi Mansion and send it to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Song Ting felt that this matter was a bit interesting, and he didn't expect that this matter would use the "Drum on the Sau" Shi Qian and the "Holy Hand Scholar" Xiao Rang at the same time, so he smiled slightly: "This "Qingming Riverside Map" was originally stolen from the palace, and it is a very favorite thing of the saint, if you know that it is in the Taishi Mansion, how can you not ask where Cai Jing's painting came from?"

Song Jiang said: "Exactly, Prime Minister Wang Cheng was extremely surprised to learn that the "Qingming Riverside Map" was in the Taishi Mansion. Sure enough, we were about to leave for the Taishi Mansion, and we rushed to the front, sent 100,000 yuan to Cai Jing, and promised to steal the painting and retrieve the letter, as long as he said a word for Brother Lu Junyi. Cai Jing had no choice but to agree, but the prime minister didn't see the painting, and the letter was stolen again, so he was naturally suspicious...... The estrangement between the prime minister and the Taishi can be regarded as being born. ”

In the plan set by Song Ting, he didn't think of dedicating the "Qingming Riverside Map" as well, but when he heard that "The Qingming Riverside Picture" was back, he was still very happy, nodded and said: "Yes, it is to separate, plant, and blame them, and to deal with villains, you can only use the villain's method to make them suspicious of each other!"

Just when he was happy, Song Jiang poured a basin of cold water: "The Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival is still gone."

"Why not?" This basin of cold water obviously greatly surprised Song Ting, he really couldn't help it, his voice raised a little, and he frowned and asked.

"Snatched by a woman."

"Women?" Song Ting was speechless, this is a Chinese painting, a Chinese painting that is still awesome after a thousand years, a fake can be sold for tens of thousands of yuan, and the real Chinese painting is worth hundreds of millions of dollars, and it was snatched away by a woman like this?

"A very beautiful woman, holding an umbrella, suddenly fell from the sky and snatched the painting." Song Jiang snorted and said.

Recalling the woman's bewitching beauty, she was really very seductive, but her methods were also terrifying, and she injured two or three of his brothers with a light shot.

"Very beautiful woman...... Holding an umbrella...... Falling from the sky......" Song Ting's eyes rolled, and he muttered in his heart, "Isn't it Li Ji?" She dresses up as a personal soldier on weekdays, and Song Jiang may not pay attention to her, so it is natural that she can't recognize her. ”

Thinking of this, he relaxed a little, and deliberately pretended to be annoyed, looking at Song Jiang and said, "It was actually snatched away by a woman?" You Liangshan brothers, there are so many powerful people, can no one beat her? ”

Song Ting bowed his head in shame and said: "The few brothers who went with him, including Hua Rong, really none of them could beat this woman, this woman is too powerful."

"That's it," Song Ting frowned, and said: "If it's gone, it's gone, since Tong Guan and Cai Jing have accepted your money and promised to speak for Lu Junyi, then you can go back and settle your brothers first, and then wait to see what the situation is, if it really doesn't work, you still have to go to the prince."

"This Song naturally knows." Song Jiang bowed, took two steps back, and left.

Across the wall, there is only a small iron window, Song Ting can't see him bowing and retreating, but he knows that this Song Jiang has always been very knowledgeable, and seems to be well versed in the way of officialdom, as long as the "leader" is higher than him, he will be respectful, and he looks like a little brother, this guy who was born as a small official in the priest, this is estimated to be impossible to change in a lifetime, no wonder Tong Guan and Cai Jing are willing to accept his bribes.

The current situation is a bit complicated, the first step is to divide the alliance of Tong Guan, Cai Jing, Wang Hao, Yang Jian and others, he used a relatively stupid but high probability of success, that is, bribery.

Which official is not for money? Even if the official is not for money, the people around the official, such as his family members, relatives, and subordinates who support him, don't they expect to get rich from him? As the saying goes, "if a person gains the Tao, the chicken and dog ascend to heaven", if a person becomes an official, and the people around him are loyal to him, isn't it just for money?

I remember watching a section of "Emperor Qianlong" in Februaryhe a long time ago: the two elders of the Qing officials colluded with corrupt officials and poisoned the Qing officials, and after the poisoning of the Qing officials, the two chiefs grabbed him by the shoulders and squeezed him hard, while glaring at the beads of the eyes and saying viciously: "I call you Qing!" I'll call you Qing! Go to 'Hell' and clear it! ”

recalled that when he went to Yongtai County to be a master, Wu Ruxiong, Ding Kenong and several others tempted him...... Facts have proved that in officialdom, it is not that you can "clear" if you want to "clear", the officialdom struggle is very complicated, and if you are about to take a wrong step, you will have no way to rein in the precipice, and you can only go all the way to the ......

Just thinking about these things, Li Ji came, and sure enough, she was wearing a white and red peony flower bone umbrella, curling Tingting, with a bewitching and charming appearance.
