358 Struggle (II)

Wen Yanbo didn't speak, and Chen Zhizhong first said with a gloomy face: "Gai Yushi, these are just your speculations. Although the imperial history can catch the wind and catch the shadows, it cannot be alarmist. ”

Gai Jiao first glanced at Chen Zhang, who was standing on the side, which made Chen Zhizhong's face hot-Chen Zhang said just now that Di Qing's family was how, it was obviously chasing the wind and catching shadows, you Chen Zhizhong didn't accuse him, how can you be embarrassed to accuse Gai Jiao of chasing the wind and catching shadows - but Chen Zhizhong is very good at cultivating his energy, and his face is as usual, and he does not change color.

Gai Jiao glanced at Chen Zhang before saying to the emperor: "Although the minister is chasing after the wind, he is not alarmist. Recently, the Beijing master Lin Feng spread all kinds of visions of Di's privy secrets, but the folk in the wind said that there was a king privy 'there is an emperor's appearance', and now there are strange things in Di's house, this is the story of Zhang Yongde in the court, who wants to follow the story of Zhang Yongde in the previous dynasty, and do unbearable things, and the details are analyzed, so the minister has to suspect that there is indeed something. Now the matter of Di Shu's secret has made the people's affairs boiling, and the people are panicking, so the minister asked His Majesty to thoroughly investigate the matter to reassure the people. ”

Although Gai Jiao only said a simple word to the "Zhang Yongde" of the previous dynasty, it was like thunder in the ears of everyone in the hall, especially the servant Shi Chen Zhang, whose face suddenly became iron-blue, and peeked at the emperor's face with a weak heart.

If you want to get mixed with high-ranking officials in the court, you must naturally be familiar with the history of the previous dynasty, otherwise you will not know some taboos of this dynasty. This Zhang Yongde is a figure who is not famous in the Great Song Dynasty, but is very important to the establishment of the Great Song Dynasty.

When Zhou Shizong Chai Rong recovered the land of Guannan, he got a wooden board more than three feet long on the way back to the teacher, which said "Check as the Son of Heaven", Chai Rong couldn't help but be suspicious, and after returning to Beijing, he dismissed the palace at that time and replaced it with Zhao Kuangyin.

Zhang Yongde is the son-in-law of Chai Rong's father-in-law Guo Wei, and the imperial relative of the Zhou Dynasty, even if he is not loyal to Chai Rong, he will definitely oppose the change of dynasty. It can be said that the removal of Zhang Yongde and the replacement of Zhao Kuangyin for this palace inspection cleared the way for Zhao Kuangyin to launch a mutiny. Gai Jiao mentioned Zhang Yongde, and the meaning was very clear, that is, someone wanted to kill the privy envoy of the emperor's cronies and replace him with his own people, and there was an attempt to usurp the throne.

What is the emperor most afraid of? Isn't it just that someone is afraid of usurping the throne! In the past, the emperor could tolerate the fight caused by the literati's framing of Di Qing and Wang Deyong as the literati's hostility to the warriors, but if this kind of fighting brought unpredictable consequences, the emperor would never tolerate it. Gai Jiao's mention of Zhang Yongde hit the most vulnerable place in the emperor's heart, causing the emperor's skin pain, and the emperor could not tolerate not reacting.

Zhao Zhen actually gave Gaijiao a big bonus in his heart when he proposed that the rumors about Di Qing were framed. Recently, in the Goolan Washejiao shop, the people have rumored that there are important ministers in the court who are dissatisfied with the emperor's emphasis on practice, and the attempt to control the privy council and then control the army by framing the martial arts appointed by the emperor has already been reported to Zhao Zhen, which makes the emperor suspicious. But none of the imperial historians mentioned this matter in the chapter, even if he, the emperor, wanted to investigate, it was not easy to make an order, because if he asked Wenchen to investigate, he would definitely be resisted by Wenchen, and if he asked the Imperial City Division to investigate, he would also be counterattacked by the civil officials who hated spying on their private affairs the most.

Now that it's okay, there is a royal history to raise this matter, and it is justified to check it. And now Zhao Zhen is indeed a little unsure, why did he appoint Wang De as a privy envoy, those civil officials did not want to drive Wang Deyong down, and appointed Di Qing as a privy envoy, these civil officials have used all kinds of tricks. Doesn't it mean that good literati should use fair and honest means, and literati should care more about their faces? Both use intrigue and intrigue and don't care about face, how is that different from a martial artist?

Wang Deyong and Di Qing are both privy envoys appointed by him, the emperor! From the bottom of his heart, now Zhao Zhen is really tired of being a privy envoy of literati. Not to mention anything else, because the civil official was a privy envoy, he almost lost Guangnan, and he was afraid to think about it. But you can see that Li Buqi not only pacified Quang Nam when he was short of money and food, but also laid down Jiaozhi and made a lot of money. This year, it was rainy in the north, and the grain harvest was poor, thanks to the emergency of the grain transported from Jiaozhi, it was saved that a bunch of people from the center to the local area were from looking for him, the emperor who could not change money and food, to complain. Although Di Qing can only fight, but the people used much less troops than the Jiaozhi army to destroy Nong Zhigao and drive the Jiaozhi people out of Guangnan, if this is a civilian official leading the army, I don't know that the imperial court will send hundreds of thousands of troops.

Zhao Zhen has already figured it out, if he wants to rely on the civil privy envoy to command the army to recover Yanyun, it is basically useless, and he can only rely on martial artists like Wang Deyong and Di Qing, or Li Buqi is not easy to characterize whether he is a literati or a martial artist. He Zhao Zhen also wants to be praised by future generations for his great achievements, so this time he is ready to use this excuse to beat the excessive civil officials and let the court restore the balance he has established.

Chen Zhizhong was scolded back by Gai Jiao, Wen Yanbo wisely did not speak, Chen Zhang first chased Di Qing after the wind, and Gai Jiao couldn't blame Gai Jiao, and there was silence in the Chongzheng Hall for a while. Zhao Zhen said slowly: "Since this is the case, then Chen Zhang and Gai Jiao will be the chief and deputy envoys...... Then the police department detective Fang Xiang Lizhong was used as the deputy envoy to investigate the matter. What happened to Di Shumi's family, we must find out, so as not to fish in troubled waters. ”

Chen Zhang had no choice but to get the order and pretend to say that he would definitely find out about the matter, but in fact, he had already made up his mind and made up his mind to make a show. In his opinion, there is no way to investigate this kind of rumor, and the emperor is just to show his support for Di Qing, but since he is the main envoy to investigate this matter, he has the means to make Di Qing not clean the that has been splashed.

But after Chen Zhang's meeting with Gai Jiao and the Police Division, Chen Zhang realized that he was wrong, and he was wrong. At the time of the meeting, Gai Jiao took out a list of key items to neutrally take people, saying that these people are the people who are currently known to spread the most source of Di Qing's rumors, including fortune tellers and the messengers of Guozijian......

This surprised Chen Zhang, only to know that Gai Jiao had already prepared and was busy asking about the source of the list. Gai Jiao only said that someone saw that Di Qing, a great hero of the country, was framed, and he was not angry in his heart and secretly visited it. Yushi has the right to catch the wind and shadows, and there is no way for Chen Zhang not to come up with the exact source of the list.

What made Chen Zhang even more frightened was that Xiang Zhongli of the Police Department actually said that because Di Qing's matter involved important ministers of the imperial court, the Police Department had already secretly reconnoitred, and the list in Gaijiao had many names the same as the list in the hands of the Police Department, but there were some more frequent visitors to the Cheng family in the imperial history, students of Guozijian, and nephews of pavilion scholars. The two hit it off, and immediately issued a ticket to arrest people, completely treating Chen Zhang, the envoy, as an ornament.

In the end, the two deputy envoys unanimously recommended Chen Zhang to go to Di Qing's house to find the horned dog, and the interrogation of the rumor-mongers was left to the two deputy envoys.

The police department has always been resolute and resolute, and on the same day it arrested a large number of rumor-mongers and witnesses for interrogation, and under the guidance of witnesses, it was difficult for those who spread rumors to deny it. The police department then interrogates the people who spread the rumors where they heard the rumors and then goes down the slopes. Of course, some of them are difficult to check, such as the students of Guozijian and the relatives and friends of the courtiers, or the petty officials, who can't deny it and then deduce that they heard it from nowhere. However, Gai Jiao was not in a hurry, and only recorded the names of these people and their relationships with the courtiers.

The Police Department and the Imperial Historical Observatory have to interrogate hundreds of people every day, and many of them have heads and faces or people who are related to important ministers in the court, which naturally causes an uproar in the capital. This also made some people smell the danger, and finally understood that now is not the time to spread rumors about the warriors as unscrupulously as before. In order to get rid of the danger of being bitten out, he asked the Police Department and the Imperial Historical Observatory to stop the investigation, and sent the Sogamata to the Yintai Division, which calmed the hearts of the people, like snowflakes, and the emperor had to order to stop the investigation.

Although the matter seems to be over, Chen Zhang and Gaijiao have to report the results of the investigation to the emperor, and it is naturally impossible for Di Qing's dog to grow horns, and Gaijiao has not found the ultimate source of the rumors. However, Gai Jiao reported to the emperor that the officials of the Privy Council, the students of the Guozijian, and the relatives and friends of the important ministers were suspected of spreading rumors, and these people were determined not to tell the source of the rumors, which made the emperor see the danger - of course, the warriors could use the army to usurp the throne, but if the literati united against the emperor, it was not impossible to usurp the throne when the literati had a dominant position.

Gai Jiao thought that the emperor saw this danger and decided to beat these unscrupulous ministers, and in the imperial history, Sun Luan became one of the victims - Sun Luan's son-in-law was the one who spread rumors unscrupulously.

The court was full of smart people, and they immediately understood the emperor's anger from this signal. But compared to the emperor's anger, these people were more afraid of the pervasiveness of the police department, and for a while, the actions of the ministers were curtailed a lot, and Di Qing's house seemed to suddenly stop strange things.

A month later, Li Buqi saw what happened from the letter from the capital, and just smiled slightly. Di Qing's framing was too famous, he naturally knew it, in order to protect Di Qing, he had already arranged for all the power he could use in the capital to stare at the rumors against Di Qing, and sure enough, it gave those literati who tried to frame Di Qing a blow to the head.

Now that he Li Buqi is also a famous general of the Great Song Dynasty, with Di Qing to help him share the pressure, there can be fewer open guns and hidden arrows from the literati. Moreover, this time, Li Buqi pushed the police department to the forefront of the confrontation with the literati, allowing the literati to see the fangs of the police, which unsurprisingly caused panic among the literati, who were already discussing how to abolish the evil yamen of the police department. A bunch of literati with muscles in their brains and can only move their mouths want to confront the organized and methodical police, hehe, Li Buqi can only silently mourn for them.
