Chapter 642: Ling Chi
Maybe the Great Song Dynasty is the first time that they are so united!
All the newspapers were in motion.
Some people recall Wang Deyong's life as a horse, and even give Wang Deyong the highest honor, the old man is the last old soldier and the first new soldier...... When he joined the army, the Great Song Dynasty had just faced the failure of the Northern Expedition, the elite was lost, and the party in the northwest was in turmoil.
In his long career as a soldier, the old general did not do much, but he silently adhered to the ethics of a soldier and maintained the vitality of the Great Song Wufu.
When the imperial court began to make great efforts to govern and reorganize the army, Wang De used the ancient years to supervise the battle in Hebei, select and train the elite, recover Youzhou, and move to the northwest...... The old general did the last drop of blood for the sake of the Great Song Dynasty!
Brave and faithful!
The sun and the moon shine together!
praising the old general naturally led to hatred with Western Xia.
More than 100 years of chaos, decades of emperor and country...... Western Xia has always been a big problem for the Great Song Dynasty, and it's time to eradicate Western Xia and recover Hetao!
Wherever the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty went, they were all Han land!
The people shouted for the army, and those officials were even more active, and took out the momentum to impeach Wang Ning'an, and they wrote books every day, and the twists and turns piled up...... I used to think they were quite annoying, but I have to admit that these people can indeed set off public opinion, and the entire Great Song Dynasty, from the people to the officialdom, is a shouting of war.
Zhao Zhen summoned Chen Shunzhi at this time.
"I heard you used to be a petty official?"
Chen Shunzhi hurriedly said: "The sage candle shines thousands of miles, it is true, thanks to the king's unabandonment, he kept Weichen by his side and handled some official affairs for him." ”
Zhao Zhen smiled faintly, "Wang Qing has the wisdom to know people, you must be a capable person...... At present, hundreds of officials are in the book, and they all say that they want to fight, do you have any opinions? ”
Chen Shunzhi said: "Sage, this matter has been deduced by Wang Xianggong and Di Xianggong and others, and Wang Xianggong also explained something and asked Weichen to play Your Majesty." ”
"Speak!"
"Yes...... Wang Xianggong said that Xiang Yu won all 72 battles that year, but as a result, he went down to Jiuli Mountain, lost once, and died. The Tang Dynasty soldiers were sharp and looked at what they wanted, but throughout the Tang Dynasty's foreign wars, they lost more and won less, especially after Wu Zetian, they went on many labor expeditions, and spent a lot of money, but the results were mediocre, and the losses were not small! ”
"Although my Great Song Dynasty has changed the law now, and its military and financial resources are far greater than in the past, it is not strong enough to move troops at will...... Perhaps there will never be a country that can fight whoever it wants, and fight as much as it wants! Manpower is finite after all, and we must be in awe. ”
Chen Shunzhi relayed Wang Ningan's set, which basically many civil officials have said, but Wang Ningan spoke more reasonably. It's just that as soon as the conversation changed, the next content made Zhao Zhen's eyes light up.
"Wang Xianggong said, directly send troops, start a war at will, although it will not work, but it can create a general trend, consume the opponent, strive for the initiative, cut the day and the moon, continue to let the enemy bleed, wait until you are fully grasped, and then kill in one blow! The strong army of my Great Song Dynasty cannot be used, and it cannot be used at will. How to weaken the Western Xia and prepare for the recovery of the Hetao is the magic of use, and it is all in the heart of the saint! ”
After Chen Shunzhi finished speaking, he bowed his body and was very humble.
Zhao Zhen laughed, "What Jingping said is clear enough, but I still don't understand, wouldn't I be a fool." Zhao Zhen walked down with a smile and said casually: "Jingping's vision is indeed unusual, others are in harmony, he can see the fighters, others are in the main battle, he makes me think twice, think ahead, be old, and have a courtier like Jingping, I can make many mistakes less!" ”
Zhao Zhen said it normally, but Chen Shunzhi was startled. He usually follows Wang Ning'an, but he only thinks that Wang Xianggong is the same thing...... The two ladies are uneven at home, and there is nothing they can do in the face of the two bear children, and they can even look big and commanding.
Wang Ningan, who is used to being angry, always feels that he is no different from ordinary young people, at most he has a higher official position and more power.
But after hearing Zhao Zhen's words, Chen Shunzhi realized that Wang Xianggong had such a status here in His Majesty, and he was simply a confidant, a mentor and a friend!
In the face of adults in the future, you must be honest and careful, otherwise you will lose your head and you won't know how to die!
Chen Shunzhi was thinking nonsense, but Zhao Zhen asked again: "Jingping sent me a secret report, saying that he had caught a key criminal?" ”
"Returning to the saints, it is true."
Chen Shunzhi cheered up and told the details.
Zhao Zhen listened very carefully, because this matter was related to the safety of the prince, and Zhao Zhen was not allowed to be careless.
After the case broke out at the beginning, Wang Su was taken down, Miao Guifei was taken, and Wang Yi of Runan was destroyed, in fact, he should continue to investigate, after all, a Wang Su does not have such a great ability to plan such a careful action.
It's just that after Zhao Zhen weighed it a little, he found that even if he killed more people, it might not work.
After decades of operation, there are too many eyeliners by his side, the queen's side, and even the prince's side...... Before the incident, who would have thought that a palace maid who had followed the queen for decades would betray the queen!
If the original structure is not completely broken, and there is no thorough reshuffle, hidden in the palace and outside the palace, Zhao Yunrang and the party in the court will not be able to clear it up.
For a period of time, Zhao Zhen first asked Wen Yanbo and Wang Ningan to preside over the reform of official governance.
Then he changed all the people in the Imperial City Division, and even the palace in Luoyang, he completely changed a group of new people.
The original boss Chen Lin was not in good health, so he stayed in Kaifeng and was responsible for sacrificing the imperial tomb.
As for the eunuchs in Luoyang, except for one Su Gui, the rest have also changed.
It's funny to say that half of the eunuchs who sprinkled and swept the palace came from overseas, among which Jiaozhi and Wa Guo were the most, and in addition to sweeping the floor, these people couldn't even speak Chinese, let alone collude with anyone.
Zhao Zongyuan's side has also been adjusted, and the original old people are not left. Zhao Zhen also appointed Gou Ya'er as the prince's left assistant, and prepared a team for the prince early to protect his safety.
All in all...... Uncle Zhao combed it all from the inside out.
Until this moment, he finally found that everything had been dealt with, but the people behind Wang Su had no time to investigate, maybe they had disappeared and could not be found-Skynet was restored but not leaked, who would have thought that among the traitors who assassinated Wang De, there was actually a thief monk who gave poison to Xiulan!
Maybe God didn't want to let go of these brutes, so he sent the key prisoners!
Zhao Zhen was suddenly taken aback, "The assassination of Wang Deyong is by no means a day or two, they must have been planning and preparing for a long time, and only then did they take advantage of the old minister's patrol to collude with Western Xia and succeed in one blow...... In this way, when they tried to assassinate me, they had already colluded with Western Xia...... Maybe it was because the assassination of me was unsuccessful, so he turned to assassinate Wang Lao Xianggong, wanting to provoke a war between the Great Song Dynasty and the Western Xia, and prevent me from continuing to investigate, how vicious his intentions were! ”
The more Zhao Zhen thought about it, the more angry he became, and his beard pouted.
Chen Shunzhi is an honest person, "Qi Song Sage, Wei Chen doesn't dare to say, whether the assassination of the official family has anything to do with the assassination of the old minister, but the minister feels that it should be investigated, no matter who is involved, as long as he dares to plot to kill the king, he should exterminate the nine clans!" ”
Zhao Zhen was satisfied.
Chen Shunzhi's words are very pleasing to his heart.
"I'll leave this matter to the Imperial City Division, they're good at it...... You transfer all the prisoners and clues in your hands to the Imperial City Division. ”
"Yes!"
Zhao Zhen asked about the battle again before letting Chen Shunzhi leave.
……
In the next few days, two news came, one was from Youzhou, Wang Liangjing played, saying that he had received a secret report, and the Western Xia envoy went to Shangjing, trying to exchange 200,000 war horses for the Khitan to send troops to jointly attack the Song Dynasty.
In addition, Li Liangzuo sent an envoy to meet Di Qing, and he explained to Di Qing that the attack on Wang Deyong was done by Li Qing alone, and he wanted to avenge his family, so he went against his will, concealed Li Liangzuo, and acted misbehaps.
Now that Li Qing has been arrested, Song and Liao should value peace, and they should fight for the sake of a petty man, which really shouldn't be.
Western Xia has severely punished Li Qing's family, and they have all thrown it into the pot to feed the snake, if the Great Song side is not satisfied, you can continue to negotiate, all in all, as long as you don't fight, everything is negotiable!
When the Western Xia envoy and Di Qing said this, they were in the next room, Li Qing was tied up, and he heard it clearly!
After listening to half of it, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and he passed out directly.
Fortunately, Qian Yi was there and quickly rescued Li Qing, but Li Qing was not grateful to him at all.
What are you doing to save me, you might as well let me die!
In the past, Da Song read the newspaper to him, and Li Qing still had a trace of luck, thinking that it was deliberately made up, and it was not true at all. But when the Tangut people said it in person, Li Qing was dumbfounded.
He was indeed abandoned by his master, and he had no nostalgia at all, and he put all the basins on his head...... Li Qing remembered two people again, one is called Zhang Yuan and the other is Wu Hao, the names of these two people are very interesting, and they are Yuan Hao together!
That's right!
They are just planning to attract Li Yuanhao's attention!
Zhang Yuan and Wu Hao were from the Great Song Dynasty, and they also took the Jinshi exam, but they repeatedly failed in the exam, so they decided to take refuge in Western Xia and act as traitors and lackeys...... They gave Li Yuanhao advice, prepared to build an official system, set up the structure of the country, and even achieved the position of Xiangguo, and also served as a Taishi and Zhongshu Ling, and they were extremely noble.
It's just that after the death of these two shameful traitors, Li Yuanhao didn't care at all, he just buried him casually, so many years have passed, and he has not been divided into a canon, and the Western Xia side only said that he was wise and wise, a god and a saint, and established a country, how amazing, and never mentioned Zhang Yuan and Wu Hao, two great heroes, as if they never existed!
Also as a traitor, Li Qing went to the graves of two people several times, overgrown with weeds, extremely low, and no one cared about him, he was quite self-deprecating at the time, feeling that after his death, he would also end up like this...... It's just that Li Qing didn't expect that his fate would be worse than those two......
"The court has decided that it will execute you in Xijing, it is Ling Chi."
"Sure enough!"
Li Qing's pupils suddenly contracted, and then stretched, he actually smiled, "Imperial Doctor Qian, my hand is gone, I can't write, can I say you write, I will tell the Great Song Dynasty all the military strength of Western Xia!" ”
