As soon as he entered the palace, Tong Guan went directly to Zichen Hall with the eunuch inside, and as soon as the door opened, Tong Guan ran in and knelt on the ground and cried, "Official, you must save the minister, the minister is really willing to do things for the official, and the official family can't watch the minister being forced to death by that group of mobs like this." ”

Tong Guan burst into tears, swinging with his hands, it is estimated that Tong Guan has not been so scared since he was born. This time, he is really afraid, he is not a fool, this time it is the Emperor Zhao Ji and the King of Yun Zhao Kai who teamed up to kill him, if Zhao Huan also lets it go, then he will definitely die. Tong Guan was so miserable, Zhao Huan couldn't bear it when he saw it, and hurriedly bent down to help, "Tong Shumi, please get up quickly, I promise you that as long as I am here, no one can beat you at all." ”

After getting Zhao Huan's assurance, Tong Guan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and after a while, Zhao Huan called Yang Lian, who was guarding outside, in, "Yang Lian, you arrange a place for Tong Shumi, and be sure to ensure Tong Shumi's safety." Sue Cao Bing and Huang Shang, if something happens to Tong Shumi, I will ask them. ”

"Yes, don't worry, the villain will arrange it" bowed his hand, and led Tong Guan out of Zichen Palace, and not long after Tong Guan left, Chai Keyan walked in. Zhao Huan was having a headache, as soon as he saw Chai Keyan, it was like seeing a savior, so he quickly got up and gave up his seat, "County Lord, what's wrong with you over there, now the trouble outside is getting more and more unpleasant, and there are many courtiers who are also on the fold and want to behead Tong Guan." ”

"Don't worry, the Chu Wangfu has already promised to help prevent Song Jiang from entering Beijing, but Tong Guan's matter is not yet wanted to interfere. So, ah. Can you keep Tong Guan? It's up to us," Chai Keyan just finished speaking. A look of disappointment appeared on Zhao Huan's face, relying on their strength alone, it was impossible to fight Zhao Ji and Zhao Kai. For a while, Zhao Huan was a lot quieter, he was like a deflated ball, sitting in the chair and sighing. Seeing Zhao Huan like this, Chai Keyan was angry in his heart and couldn't help but reprimand. "You raise your head for me, remember, you are now the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, not the useless prince you used to be, your words and deeds may affect many people. If you're scared, how can you fight? Even if the other party is powerful, what are you afraid of, can't you use your brain to do things? ”

Chai Keyan unceremoniously pointed at Zhao Huan's forehead and said sarcastically. Zhao Huan's face was pale, but he couldn't refute it. In the end, he could only snort, "Is there any good way for you?" ”

"Hmph, it's stupid, the Chu Wangfu has already promised to contain Song Jiang, and it is impossible for the fourth sister to take the initiative to provoke civil strife in Bianliang, what are you worried about? Although Master Li does not help protect Tong Guan, others may not know that as long as the Dingguo Army takes the initiative to contain Song Jiang's soldiers and horses, in the eyes of outsiders, the Chu Wangfu has already stood with us, and it is natural to restrain Tong Guan's matter. ”

Listening to Chai Keyan's narration, Zhao Huan was silent for a long time, and it took a while to ponder the taste. It seems that what Chai Keyan said is very reasonable, Master Li said that he would not help, but others don't know about this matter, since the Dingguo Army has already helped contain Song Jiang's soldiers and horses, will there still be disagreements on the issue of Tong Guan? It is estimated that most people think that the Chu Wangfu will stand with the imperial court in the matter of Tong Guan, right? Thinking through the joints, Zhao Huan smiled, "County Lord, then what should we do next?" ”

"Of course, he made good use of the influence of the Xia Chu Palace, Zhao Ling didn't do much good things, but his notoriety can help us a lot. Next, don't care about Tong Guan, take down Li Yan and Li Bangyan first, as for the crime, these two people have done so many things for lack of morality, and they can be put on death row with just two of them. When the time comes, the lord of this county will see what Zhao Kai will do! ”

Now many things are no secret, Li Bangyan is Zhao Kai's person, and Li Yan is also Zhao Ji's last confidant left in the palace, moving these two people, the reason is very simple, it is a pair in the proverb. You move Tong Guan, I move Li Yan and Li Bangyan, see who is willing. Chai Keyan has a lot of confidence that Zhao Kai should not give up Li Bangyan, no matter what, most of Zhao Kai's influence in the court comes from Li Bangyan, if Li Bangyan is abandoned like this, what will other dependent people think? It's Li Yan, it seems that Zhao Ji may not be able to protect it.

Just do what you say, Zhao Huan's actions are still very fast, and the students are still leading the people to put pressure on the imperial court, and here Zhao Huan held an emergency court meeting. As soon as the court meeting opened, the civil and military officials were separated, and these people were all apprehensive and didn't know what the officials wanted to do. Yang Lian unfolded a holy decree and slowly read it out, "The Holy Son of Heaven's decree, recently, many families have reported to the people, including Li Bangyan, a scholar, and Li Yan, deputy director of the Internal Supervision Bureau. According to the law of the Great Song Dynasty, the two were detained in prison, and after the evidence was conclusive, they were handed over to the three legal divisions for trial and beheaded at the entrance of the Nancheng vegetable market. ”

After reading a holy edict, it was like a bomb exploding in the hall, blowing everyone up, originally Er Li was still a little proud, and planned to watch the excitement, but who would have thought that it was not Tong Guan who would be discussed at the Great Dynasty, but the two of them. Li Bangyan and Li Yan were named, and the two of them were naturally panicked, and there was another person who was not very comfortable, and this person was Liang Shicheng. The forbidden army outside the hall walked in in response, and was so frightened that Er Li lay on the ground and begged for mercy, Zhao Kai, who was the first civil official, was so angry that he didn't expect Zhao Huan to come to this hand, this is simply a scoundrel. Naturally, he couldn't watch Li Bangyan being taken away, so he hurriedly stepped out and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has something to say, since there is no real evidence for the two of them, is it a bit hasty to put them in prison first?" ”

"Sloppy? It's not counted, since there is a problem, let's lock them up first, there is a way that the clear ones are self-purifying, and the turbid ones are turbid, if there is really nothing wrong, I will naturally let them go, come on, put the two in prison first. During the prison period, no one is allowed to visit without my permission" Zhao Huan's attitude was extremely resolute, waving his hand, and the forbidden army in the palace escorted the mourning Er Li down. The hall suddenly became silent, and the ministers of the cultural relics closed their mouths tightly, and they didn't dare to breathe. Who can stand in the palace hall is a fool? The charges given to Er Li are all false, only the last sentence is true, in other words, if the official family wants Er Li to die, then they can find evidence, if they don't want Er Li to die. Naturally, the evidence does not exist. The official family is declaring war on the Emperor Taishang and His Royal Highness King Yun. Those who stand in the middle will not be good. Seeing that Er Li was taken down, many officials had begun to hesitate, if Er Li was really executed, wouldn't it mean that the official family had the upper hand, and it seemed that who to throw it to, we had to think about it carefully. The officials hesitated and did not make a choice, and Chai Keyan would have achieved his goal. These wall-to-wall grasses that fall with the wind are easy to win over.

After the court meeting was dispersed, Chai Keyan came to the south gate of the palace in person as the queen, at this time more than 100 students sat on the ground, some of them were still holding a piece of paper in their hands, with the four big characters of "severely punishing Tong Guan", surrounded by onlookers or people cheering for these students. If you really want to talk about it, the Great Song Dynasty is really democratic enough, and the scene in front of you is a bit like the demonstration of college students in later generations. It's very easy to get rid of these students. It only needs to dispatch the forbidden army, but this is by no means the result that Chai Keyan wants. She needs to keep Tong Guan alive, but never in this way. If you use soldiers, you will inevitably put yourself on the opposite side of the students, which is not a good thing.

Today, Chai Keyan is dressed in a luxurious peony pale white palace dress, a gray cloak is covered with a jacket, his long hair is tied into a beauty bun, his jade face is not powdered, and his cold face is a little holy. When she came to the south gate, the noisy Tai students also quieted down, because no one wanted the beautiful county lord to be angry, even if Tong Guan was hidden by the new emperor, they didn't want to affect the beautiful county lord.

Chai Keyan looked around, his beautiful eyes exuded an invisible momentum, and when he raised his hand, the majesty belonging to the queen mother was fully displayed, "Why don't you study in Tai Academy, what are you doing here?" You must remember that the affairs of the DPRK and China have nothing to do with you, and you can only serve the Great Song Dynasty in the future and contribute to our Great Song Dynasty. ”

The cold words came out of Chai Keyan's mouth and fell on the ears of others, but they were extremely pleasant, Chen Dong frowned, pressed the paper in his hand under his feet, got up and gave a salute, "Returning to the queen mother, the students and others are also angry that this Tong Guan has done too much evil, so they can't help but come to the palace gate to make noise, for the sake of my Great Song Dynasty people can seek justice, and I hope that Your Majesty and the Queen Mother will not protect Tong Guan's husband, having such a traitor in charge is the biggest shame of my Great Song Dynasty." ”

Chen Dong got Zhao Ji's orders, in short, he had to kill Tong Guan no matter what, so even if the queen mother went out in person, he must not retreat. Looking at Chen Dong's firm gaze, Chai Keyan was not happy or angry, nodded slightly, she didn't answer Chen Dong, but said loudly to all the students in the field, "I know your thoughts, that Tong Guan was corrupt and perverted the law in his early years, did a lot of evil, and was selfish a few times, and he was even more tired of the death of hundreds of thousands of border soldiers in my Great Song Dynasty. ”

As soon as Chai Keyan said this, it can be said that the audience was shocked, Chen Dong half-opened his mouth, his eyes flashed with doubts, what did Chai Keyan want to do, didn't she want to protect Tong Guan, how to say such a thing, it was incredible. Chen Dong reacted like this, Chai Keyan smiled faintly in his heart, he still wanted to stump her Chai Keyan for this little trick?

"What this later said, you can listen carefully, this Tong Guan can be said to have ten heinous crimes, not only Tong Guan, Liang Shicheng, Gao Yu, which of these people is not burdened with a few school cases? According to the law, they should be beheaded, but have you ever thought about it, when is it now, the Jurchens are on the north bank of the Yellow River, and at this moment, as the people of my Great Song Dynasty, they have the responsibility of guarding the land. Tong Guan is a sinner, he deserves to die, but why can't he be allowed to make meritorious contributions, even if he dies in the battle to defend Bianliang City, it can be regarded as a dedication of a little strength. But wouldn't killing him with a knife cheapen him? Do you think that the official family is dedicated to protecting Tong Guan? Tong Guan's previous actions are clear to the official family, but the official family is different from you, he has to consider the entire Great Song Dynasty, if he kills Tong Guan, he can keep the people of my Great Song Dynasty safe, what if he kills him ten times, but how many benefits are there to killing Tong Guan? Without Tong Guan, who will lead the original Xijing Forbidden Army, and you still let the officials themselves? So the official family remembered the crime for Tong Guan and asked him to lead the troops for the crime, please see" After that, Chai Keyan raised his right hand, and the two eunuchs behind him stepped forward with a holy oracle in their hands, and when they came closer, the inner eunuch directly handed over the holy oracle to Chen Dong.

Chen Dong was a little panicked, he didn't know what was written in the oracle, but he instinctively felt that this oracle was not good for him, Chai Keyan didn't allow Chen Dong to think too much, and stretched out his hand to signal, "Chen Dong, I bother you to read the oracle for everyone." ”

"Yes" Chen Dong couldn't refuse, and slowly unfolded the oracle, only chatting and saying a word. But it made Chen Dong's heart tremble. He didn't want to read it. But there were hundreds of pairs of eyes staring at it, but after hesitating for a while, some of his classmates couldn't help but urge, "Brother Chen, read quickly, what does Your Majesty mean?" ”

Chen Dong couldn't procrastinate, so he could only read it out loud, "Holy Son of Heaven Order." Zha Tongguan was too greedy, and fought in the north, because of his selfish desires, the tired army was defeated. In the fourth year of Zhenghe, he was greedy for military salaries during the Western Xia, bought fertile land in his hometown, and embezzled other people's real estate, resulting in the tragic death of three families in his hometown. Tong Guan's crime is difficult to write, and Ling Chi should be executed according to the law. But there is a way to think of commanding troops. The barbarians are on the side, and it is the time to employ people. If the quasi-child is guilty of meritorious service, if he makes meritorious service, he will be spared his life and sent back to his hometown, if he has no merit, he will be punished for several crimes, and he will be handed over to the three legal divisions for trial, and Ling Chi will be executed at the entrance of Nancheng Street. ”

After reading a holy oracle, Chen Dong was as disgusting as eating a dead fly, and he knew that Zhao Huan and Chai Keyan had won this game. As Chen Dong said, those students and the common people began to discuss, and many of them had already agreed with what was written in the oracle, if Tong Guan could really contribute to the Great Song Dynasty, it would be a good thing. What's more, whether Tong Guan makes meritorious service or not, it is difficult to escape the blame, and it is best to go home to support the elderly, such a thief, leaving the court, is not bad.

"Your Majesty Xià Shengming, Queen Mother Shengming" Many students smiled and gave a serious salute, and Chai Keyan happily accepted it. At this point, the biggest stone in her heart has fallen, it seems that she has made the right move, so don't Zhao Kai and Zhao Ji just want to convict Tong Guan, very good, I will convict Tong Guan first, and see who dares to make irresponsible remarks.

"Benhou and the official family know everyone's thoughts, a few days ago, Benhou has discussed with Li Niangzi of the Chu Palace, and now it is an eventful time, Bianliang should be safe, and there must be no more chaos. The Jurchen barbarians are still on the north bank of the Yellow River, and we will be in chaos first, wouldn't it give people a chance to take advantage of it? Chai Keyan's words are interesting, he only said that he had reached an agreement with the people of the Chu Palace, and as for the specific content of the agreement, Chen Dong and the others were secretly frightened. Could it be that Mrs. Li of the Chu Palace's Mansion also meant to protect Tong Guan, or did the Cheshire Lord deliberately say so, which has achieved the purpose of deceiving people?

Whether Chai Keyan is a lie or not, it really can't be verified, and he can only wait for what happens in the future. At this point, there was no need for the students and the people who had come with them to stay, and they dispersed.

The Tai students made a disturbance, which had a great impact on Bianliang City, and the matter quickly spread to the palace of the king of Chu. After getting the news from the dark hall, Zhilan found the teacher angrily, "Lady, the county lord is really too deceitful, when did we say that we wanted to protect Tong Guan, that Tong Guan has done a lot of evil, protect him, isn't it bad for His Highness's reputation." ”

After listening to the whole story, the master pursed his lips and smiled, "Okay, sister, don't be angry, our county lord is used to being cautious, even if you go to her now, what can you do, she just said to maintain the stability of Bianliang." Forget it, don't worry about this, you have someone to send a letter to General Niu and ask him to react earlier, but you can't let Song Jiang ask for Bianliang City. ”

"Hmm" Zhilan was just angry, she really went to the Cheshire Lord to theorize, she didn't have the guts, after all, the Cheshire Lord had such a relationship with His Royal Highness, she had to think about it, not to mention that Chai Keyan raised His Highness's child.

In mid-February, the city of Zhengzhou is full of spring, and the cold spring season is accompanied by some warm days. A few days ago, Niu Gao had already led a large army into Zhengzhou City, and Zhengzhou Mansion Yin ran to Jiangnan with a family without even letting out a fart, so it can be said that it was effortless to take Zhengzhou. Now Niu Gao is very idle, he is waiting for the next order, stationed in Zhengzhou, can go north at any time to support the soldiers and horses of Taiyuan Prefecture, and at the same time can take care of Tokyo Bianliang City. Of course, Niu Gao stationed the army here, not to prevent the Jurchens from attacking Bianliang City, but to protect the people in the city.

"Report, marshal, Bianliang City urgent" A pro-soldier strode in, the voice sounded very urgent, Niu Gao looked stern, stretched out his hand to take the urgent report and looked at it, pondered for a moment, and ordered, "General Shi, in the afternoon, you will take 10,000 elite soldiers to be stationed thirty miles east of Zhengzhou, if Song Jiang's department is approaching Bianliang, your department must also act with it, if Song Jiang does not come, you will not move." ”

"Oh" Shi Bao took the order and left, leaving a Wu Song a little unable to sit still, the soldiers and horses in Guanzhong participated in the battle of Tubo, the soldiers and horses of Yunzhong Mansion often conquered Mongolia and Siberia, and the soldiers and horses of Luoyang City were idle, in the words of General Niu, guarding Luoyang City, in addition to protecting the little lady of the Yang family, the rest was to see Luoyang Peony.

"Dashuai, there is no such thing as a general?"

"Why should General Wu be anxious, sooner or later the Jurchens will have to go south, are they still afraid that there will be no battle to fight? Wait patiently for a few days, it is estimated that it will not be long before you and my brother can show their strength! "Niu Gao has also been depressed for a long time, guarding the prosperous Luoyang City, life is good, but the body will rust. The old general Hu Yanqing complained a lot about this, no, His Royal Highness had an order to transfer troops, and immediately rushed to Mengzhou, saying that he wanted to rush to Taiyuan Mansion as soon as possible, which shows how much Luoyang soldiers and horses want to fight.

The Dingguo army moved very quickly, and Niu Gao had just given the order, that is, half an hour, Shi Bao led the army to appear in Baisha Town, east of Zhengzhou. The Dingguo Army mobilized its troops and horses like this, and the first person who was uneasy must be Song Jiang, who had just left Yingtianfu. Outside Ningling City, Song Jiang's more than 30,000 soldiers and horses were stationed, and Song Jiang himself was sitting in the county government with his brows furrowed, even Wu Yong, who had always been scheming, was at a loss. The Dingguo army is too strong, so strong that the people of Liangshan can't compete with it, in fact, in the face of strong forces, any conspiracy and trickery seem so weak. Now the Dingguo Army only needs to be stationed in Baisha Town without moving, and it can look at the overall situation and be invincible. Use a plan to hook the Dingguo army out of Baisha Town and break the balance near Bianliang? This is simply a hopeless thing, Niu Gao is not a fool, he knows what the choice is made at the moment.

"Brother Song, it seems that this trip to Bianliang ends here, those people in Guanzhong don't want us to meddle in Bianliang's affairs" Wu sighed silently, he saw that Song Jiang's face became gloomy and terrifying, and even a little ashamed and angry. It's also difficult for Song Jiang, he has been dormant in Yingtianfu for so long, waiting for such an opportunity, if he enters Bianliang at this time, in case he pushes His Royal Highness King Yun to the throne, it will be from the dragon's work, and the future career is bright, and things are good, but they are mixed up by the Dingguo Army.

Song Jiang has always been very tolerant, and it is still the case, he decided to endure it, as long as he waits patiently, there will definitely be a chance in the future, he is never satisfied with being a small commander. must climb up, all those who dare to stand in the way will die, Lu Junyi doesn't know how to lift, he died, and then Zhao Yougong, Zhao is against him everywhere, which is really hateful.

Baima Yanjin, the spring breeze of Baima Ferry in early spring, walking on the bank of the Yellow River, looking at the turbidity flowing away, Wanyan Zongwang suddenly squatted down and bowed a handful of water, the water is really muddy, but it is this turbid Yellow River water that gave birth to the civilization of the world. He will definitely go south, and when the army is directed at Bianliang City again, no one will be able to stop him, even Zhao Yougong. The Dajin Kingdom that came from suffering needs a hero of the world, and he wants to be this hero after he finishes his face Zongwang, he may not have the posture of the sky, but he has infinite pride in the world.

Haojie is a strong man, Hu Xia moonlight pool. If the snow Ling Fit, a thousand mountains and sunny days.

This is a sunny day, here is a waterfall rain, since you come, you will not go lightly, Bianliang City not only has infinite wealth, but also has the person who thinks about it.

If the Great Golden Kingdom needs a hero of the world, then what about the Great Song Dynasty? The weak Great Song Dynasty needs a hero to stand up, stepping on the spring breeze, the beautiful emperor Ji let the long skirt drag on the green grass, how long the spring breeze will blow, no one knows, but Zhao Fujin knows that Bianliang will not be quiet for too long. Why is the royal family always full of intrigue, I thought that without Brother Ling, it would be better, but now, Brother Ling is not in Bianliang, and the situation in Bianliang City is even more chaotic. Daddy and the third brother met again, what are they discussing, how can they not know? (To be continued......)
