339th ransom amount
Suddenly, Zheng Xia's 'great name' was not only within the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, but also spread it to the territory of the Western Xia Kingdom and the Great Liao Kingdom through merchants from various countries in a short period of time.
However, everyone in the world obviously still underestimated the thickness of Wen Yanbo and Lu Gong's cheeks.
Since Zhang Shangying refused to accept the offer, they had other ways to resolve this crisis. As for Zhang Shangying's request, he was fully satisfied, and these two people directly dismissed Zhang Shangying, an eye-catching guy, on the spot. Moreover, even Su Zhe, who was still sick, was not spared. Originally, in the original history, Su Zhe, who partnered with them in the Yuan You Dynasty, was also dismissed from his official position on the spot.
Of course, on the issue of dealing with Su Zhe, the two of them still have some differences.
Lu Gongzhu thought that Su Zhe should not be allowed to continue in his original position, as long as he was not allowed to enter the capital again. But Wen Yanbo wanted to push Su Zhe to the end. After several deliberations, the two of them finally reached an agreement on the handling of Su Zhe.
The Empress Dowager Gao is not a fool, she still believes in Su Zhe. Therefore, the decision made by the two of them naturally can't be too extreme, and the excuse is of course quite high-sounding, isn't Su Zhe sick? Then temporarily remove the tiny real job of the original Shezhou Jixi County Order from him, and let him simply take a long paid vacation.
As for the livelihood of the dismissed officials, there is no need to worry, although there is no real job, isn't Su Zhe still in the false position of the Jilu official?
After waiting for a year and a half, it's hard to say whether Gao Taotao will remember Su Zhe or not.
When will Su Zhe recover from his illness, and when will they consider granting Su Zhe an official position. As for when Su Zhe will get better, it is not something that Su Zhe himself can say.
The two of them thought they had a plan, but in fact, this way of dealing with it followed the hearts of Cai Dao and Su Shi. Since Su Zhe was dismissed from his official position, he naturally avoided being involved in the party struggle during the Yuanyou period. It also avoided being included in the list of Song Zhezong's revenge in the future.
After discussion, Wen Yanbo and Lu Gongzhu decided that Cai Dao was hijacked by bandits, and such a big black pot was directly thrown to Li Xian, who had just entered Beijing and had been secretly under house arrest. In the Great Song Dynasty, military attachés had no human rights, and eunuchs also had no human rights. He also deserves to be unlucky, who let him have been the supreme military governor of Hedong Road before, but he has always allowed bandits like Taihang Village to exist?
Li Xian was forcibly lifted out of the top cylinder, and he was indeed able to withstand part of the discussion. However, Cai Dao's matter still has to be resolved after all, and the family of a world-famous official who was dismissed from his official post by them was kidnapped, or in front of the newly appointed Hedong Road transfer envoy and the prefect of Taiyuan Prefecture.
If, after Zheng Xia arrives, this matter cannot be resolved in a short time, then Zheng Xia himself must be responsible for this matter.
Let's not mention the anxious Zheng Xia, Wen Yanbo and Lu Gong.
Let's talk about Cai Dao, after he was carried down the mountain by You Feixiong, he immediately jumped out of his arms. It's not a wonderful thing to be held for so long by a big man covered in muscles. Someone among the little minions immediately took out three pairs of sliding rods and carried the three young masters to set off immediately. Why three? Didn't Cai Bucket and Cai Ban follow behind them all the time?
However, Cai Bucket did not accept such treatment, he himself was not like a child, and he was very uncomfortable on the sliding rod. The people who carried him changed from two people at the beginning to four strong men, and only then did they barely catch up with the speed of the procession. However, within a quarter of an hour, Cai Bucket jumped off the sliding rod by himself, which was too uncomfortable.
After rushing for a while, a rapid sound of horses' hooves disturbed the marching team, and it turned out that Ding Youcai suddenly rode up from behind.
"I'm really not afraid of death, Childe, what should I do?" Du Menghu didn't stop, while asking Cai Dao's opinion, one hand habitually touched his big bald head, and his big mouth opened slightly to reveal a mouthful of white Sensen's big plate teeth, really like a tiger that would choose people to eat at any time, looking at him like this, he knew that he wanted to kill someone. However, I finally came out and did such a big thing, and I didn't even pull out the knife just now.
"Don't be impatient, if you really want to kill someone, after this incident, Poor Dao will arrange a good place for you. Captain You, you let the troops stop and take a breath first, let's see which friend is not afraid of death, so give the poor face to the poor. Cai Dao patted the sliding rod under him, signaled the people below to stop, and commanded You Feixiong.
"No!" You Feixiong agreed, and immediately shouted at the top of his throat: "Brothers, all stop." The host gave everyone a break. ”
In fact, these little minions who have been in a hurry are indeed going to rest for a while. At the beginning, when these people arrived at Xuehua Mountain and hijacked Cai Dao in the Baiyun Temple, the people below thought that they might be able to rest for a while. Unexpectedly, after Cai Ban's voice, everyone present actually lost their sense of proportion, so You Feixiong seized this good opportunity, and immediately used Cai Dao as a shield and quickly left Baiyun Temple.
Cai Dao naturally saw the fatigue of his subordinates, but this place was still too close to Xuehua Mountain, and it was difficult to guarantee that there would be no details to see that there was fraud in it. So, he originally planned that the team would climb another mountain, and he would ask the big guys to stop and rest for a few more hours. However, Ding Youcai's sudden arrival still disrupted his plan.
"Little board, you follow behind Captain You, go over and see the situation, if it's someone you know, then you might as well bring him over." Cai Dao knew Cai Ban's ability to recognize people and never forget, so he sent him to do this.
"Stop coming!" A little minion stepped forward to stop Ding Youcai, who was rushing all the way.
As soon as he saw that someone was blocking him, and Ding Youcai was sitting on the horse at the moment, he could see from a distance, and found the two main masters who had kidnapped Cai Dao just now in the team, which was a sigh of relief.
I saw Ding Youcai pull the reins of the horse, and did not immediately jump off the horse, but directly hugged You Feixiong and Du Menghu on the horseback, and said: "The two kings, the younger one is surnamed Ding, and his name is Ding Youcai." The little one came this time, not for anything else, but to ask, can the little one spend money to redeem Cai Daochang! ”
"Yo! Hahaha! When Du Menghu heard this, he couldn't help laughing and said, "This brother is still more upright!" However, you Ding You seems to have only a meager fortune, I'm afraid you won't be able to get the ransom to redeem this Cai Daochang! ”
Ding Youcai was a little surprised in his heart that these thieves were so good at talking for some reason, but he was still not frightened by the other party, and still asked stubbornly: "No matter how much the ransom is, no matter what, you have to have a number!" Cai Daochang is a small benevolent father, and the small one is a broken family and wants to redeem the engong! ”
"Hmmm! You're good. The ransom is not much, a billion copper coins, 10 million taels of silver or 1 million taels of gold, how about it, the price is not expensive! This was said by You Feixiong, but this price was not something he said casually. In his heart, Cai Dao's own value is actually far more than the price he quoted.
"You ......" Ding Youcai pointed at the other party and couldn't say a word, he was so angry by You Feixiong's words that he trembled, isn't Cai Dao worth the price? This is an assessment of the wisdom of the benevolent and the wise.
Ding Youcai, like You Feixiong, thinks that Cai Dao is worth this offer, but the problem is that he can't take out so much money at all!
Not only him, but all the wealthy merchants and wealthy families in the world, even the treasury and inner treasury of the Great Song Dynasty combined, UU Reading Books .et No one can come up with such a large amount of money.
"Childe, the person who came in front was Ding Youcai." At this time, after recognizing the other party, Cai Ban quietly came to Cai Dao's side and whispered in his ear.
"Ding Youcai, haven't you heard of it?" Cai Dao thought for a few minutes, and said this, which means that he has taken the initiative to give up recalling this person in his mind, and he thinks he is smart, but this point is really not as good as Cai Ban.
"Childe, this Ding Youcai was originally a medium-sized grain merchant near Shuibo Liangshan, and he was the first merchant to sell all the grain under his name to you to stop the loss." Cai Ban took the initiative to tell the origin of this Ding Youcai, and the experience of interacting with their master and servant.
"It turned out to be this Ding Youcai! Isn't he a grain merchant, though? How did you get here on Hedong Road? Cai Dao muttered to himself, thought for a while, and then instructed Cai Ban: "In this way, you go over and explain to You Feixiong, if you can, help him." Let him tell Ding Youcai that the master of Dazhai invited me to be a guest, and he will definitely treat me well. ”
"No!" After hearing this, Cai Ban agreed, ran to You Feixiong, and whispered in his ear for a while.
