Chapter 768: A very tacit monarch and minister
Buddha Yin is the host of the Great Xiangguo Temple, and also in charge of the White Horse Temple, the stock market and the bond market are in charge of him, he knows too many secrets, this guy was arrested, if he can't control his mouth, say everything, then don't want human life!
Zhao Shu's little face changed color, and his voice trembled slightly.
Zhao Zhen glanced at him, and then sneered.
"Why, this thing is scared? If you don't even have this bit of courage, who will give you the courage to make any money? β
Zhao Shu was blamed so much that he was ashamed.
"The son is wrong, please punish my father."
"What's wrong?" Zhao Zhen asked rhetorically, Zhao Shu was dumbfounded, and he didn't know how to answer, so he could only say: "It's the son-in-law who caused trouble for his father, and the son-in-law should die!" β
"You are the prince of a country, the future lord of the world, don't be wrong at every turn, damn it. If you die, who will inherit my thousands of miles? β
Zhao Zhen stretched out his hand, and Zhao Shu hurriedly supported his father's arm. Through the dragon robe, Zhao Shu could clearly feel that his father's arm was flabby, as if it was a ball of cotton, but such an aging arm could still shelter him from the wind and rain and give him unparalleled courage.
"Okay, don't be afraid, there is a father in everything!"
Zhao Zhen smiled rarely: "Tell me, what are you going to do?" β
"Erchen, Erchen thinks that he should go and rescue Master Buddha Yin immediately, and he must not be allowed to fall into the hands of those people in the Criminal Department!"
"Save ...... How to save? Zhao Zhen smiled and said, "Is it my next will, or are you going to break through yourself?" β
"This ......" Zhao Shu was dumbfounded again.
"There have been such big fluctuations in the stock market and bond market, and some people have spread rumors and disturbed the morale of the military, they have grabbed the Buddha seal, it is a matter of course, even if it is the father, he cannot issue a decree to interfere, as for you...... That's even worse. β
"Yes, but in case ......"
"No whatever!" Zhao Zhen's face sank, and he said angrily: "Since you have used the Buddha seal and believed in him, you should use people without suspicion." What's more, even if the Buddha seal says something, what can it do? Do they dare to arrest you, the prince? β
I have to say that the old emperor is domineering enough. A few words calmed Zhao Shu, and he was not so flustered in his heart. It's just that Zhao Shu is still a little worried, after all, through the Buddha seal, this fire will burn to Xiao Guanyin and Wang Zonghan, if they are also arrested, then I am sorry Master, even if Zhao Shu doesn't want to show his head, he can't do it.
Zhao Zhen also guessed his son's thoughts, thought about it, and smiled lightly, "It's okay, just watch, your master can handle it, he can't handle it, and there is still a father!" All in all...... What to do, don't delay the business......"
"Business? What's the matter? "Zhao Shu was stupid.
Zhao Zhen roared angrily: "What's the matter!" You've got so much money, you don't just want to sit on the bed and count the money, right? Use it, hurry up and use it for me! Build straight roads, build cities, and expand the forbidden army by 30,000! Your father can ignore the wealth, but you don't understand how to spend it, you have a deficit and greed, and your father can't spare you! β
"Yes, yes...... Sons obey! β
Zhao Shu was so frightened that he hugged his head, Zhao Zhen sat on the bed, and the action just now had exhausted his strength, so he could only lie on the bed and slowly recover his spirit.
It's just that Zhao Zhen's heart is still very happy, this time, there are at least three major benefits.
First of all, of course, it taught those gentry and officials a hard lesson, and gave the financial market a wake-up call; Secondly, if you get a large amount of money, you will have the funds to develop the Western Regions, and when the Western Regions stabilizes, turn your head and destroy the Western Xia, it is also close at hand; Again, Wang Ning'an, who has always behaved in a good way and is loyal to the country, can't restrain his family, they jumped out to make a big profit, okay, this is a real person! People with flesh and blood and weaknesses!
Don't blame Uncle Zhao for having a dark mind, being in a high position, always being cautious, cherishing feathers, taking his reputation more seriously than anything else, doing things, not wanting to leave a handle, selling favors everywhere, and making friends...... It looks flawless, but the emperor is not at ease!
Are there any flawless people in this world?
Is there a full amount of red gold?
Pretending to be ancient, what do you want? Could it be that he coveted the dragon chair?
Therefore, the ministers with excellent reputations in the past generations will be suspicious of the king, especially when the old and the new are alternated.
If it weren't for that, Zhao Zhen would not have let Wang Ning'an go to the Western Regions.
But Xiao Guanyin and Gouya'er's actions made Zhao Zhen breathe a sigh of relief.
It doesn't matter if Wang Ningan is greedy or not, at least the people around him are not monolithic, and this account must be counted on Wang Ningan's head, and the gap between him and civil officials is even deeper.
If the courtiers don't fight, the king is uneasy!
So, Uncle Zhao slept peacefully!
β¦β¦
It's just that this night, too many people can't sleep.
"Master, the Buddha seal has been arrested." Dogtooth was lying on the table, looking uneasy.
"If you catch it, what can you do?"
"Master, that bald donkey is a boneless one, what should we do if he says it?"
Xiao Guanyin hesitated, "It's a big deal to go to the Western Regions, what's so scary." β
"Terrible, terrible of course! No matter how powerful these people are, they are at least easier to deal with than my dad - and besides, and we have so many stocks and bonds in our hands, it seems to be very valuable, but we still need to sell them for cash, and if we just run away, won't it become a pile of waste paper! β
Xiao Guanyin thought about it, and it made sense.
"So what? You're going to snatch the Buddha seal out? Orβjust kill him!" β
"Ahh
Gouya'er exclaimed in fright, and quickly shook his head, "No, no, my uncle will pick my skin!" "Su Shi doesn't have many good friends, Buddha Yin is one of them, both of them are so witty, and they can eat and eat, every time they get together, they have to eat in the dark and chat happily.
It's not easy to find someone who is more interesting than the Buddha seal.
Xiao Guanyin laughed again.
"Don't you kid often say that to do big things, you have to be unruly, not to compromise means, and to be ruthless and decisive? The way you look now, you're really not as good as your father! β
Dogtooth lowered his head when he was said, and kept looking for cracks in the ground, trying to get in.
Suddenly, Dogtooth made up her mind!
"Kill and kill! And how! He jumped up, "I'll arrange for people to infiltrate the criminal department now, and let the Buddha seal take poison!" β
As soon as he turned around, he saw a gloomy donkey face!
"Ahh It's my uncle! β
Don't mention how embarrassing the dog tooth is, the person who came is Su Shi, his face is full of wind and dust, he is very tired, but the anger in his eyes is still spewing out, and he wants to burn the dog tooth!
"Little bunny, you're such a big bold!"
Saying that, he raised his fist and hit it, and Gouya'er hurriedly dodged, hiding and begging for mercy.
"Uncle spare your life, uncle spare your life! I can't help it, I really don't blame me! β
Su Shi grew fat, and drove thousands of miles, but he really didn't have the strength, and after chasing twice, he sat on the ground, panting.
At this time, Gouya'er came over again, his eyes rolled, and he suddenly smiled: "Uncle, did my father ask you to come?" β
"Humph! I've made you two miserable in my life! He drank wine in Ganzhou, listened to Liangzhou words, soaked in hot springs, and lived a fairy life, letting me run around in the dust, not a son of man, not a son of man! β
Su Shi kept pouring bitter water, and Gouya'er hurriedly poured a cup of Xiaolongtuan and sent it to Su Shi's hand, and said with a smile: "Uncle, the good of the capital is not comparable to that of the Western Regions." What's more, we made a lot of money this time. Look back and your nephew will honor you! Buy what you want! Eat whatever you want! We don't have anything, we just have money! β
"Pull it down!"
Su Shi snorted angrily: "Don't slap your swollen face and become fat, the money is in hand, can you swallow it?" Do you have the guts to spend? β
Dog Ya'er hurriedly smiled, he turned to Su Shi's back, and rubbed Su Shi's back and shoulders, full of dog legs.
"Uncle, my own uncle, you haven't come yet, I really don't have an idea, but when you get old, my nephew has a bottom in his heart, how did my father explain?"
Su Shi glanced at him, "That's your uncle's usefulness, it's obvious that your father has the ability!" Okay, your father has passed the word, telling you that it is better to be still than to be still, stay honest, if you want to kill people, even he can't protect you! β
β¦β¦
Wang Ningan and Zhao Zhen both chose to be silent at the same time, and the monarch and the minister had a tacit understanding!
But the officials who were pitted very badly couldn't sit still.
Almost everyone got into the prison of the Criminal Department, Buddha Yin had never enjoyed such treatment in his life, he really wanted to die. But the Buddha seal also knows that cutting off people's financial routes, such as killing one's parents, how can one die with death!
In these days, either you have to rush through it, or you will be trampled to death by people at both ends, and there is no third way!
There are also numbers in the Buddha's heart, this matter is holding the prince, holding the young master Wang, behind him is Zhao Zhen, Wang Ning'an, the two most powerful figures in the Great Song Dynasty, he has nothing to fear!
Thinking of this, Foyin's face sank, "My lords, although Lao Wei is an outsider, he is also in charge of a mess of things, you can just arrest Lao Gan, I'm afraid it's not appropriate!" β
"Phew!"
A man from the criminal department jumped out, he lost 100,000 yuan, and his stomach was on fire.
"Buddha Yin, you don't pretend to be garlic! Tell me the truth, are you secretly spreading rumors? β
"The old man is a monk." Buddha Yin said solemnly: "The old man doesn't speak!" β
"You let ......" Lang Zhong of the Criminal Department almost scolded, "Buddha Yin, you be smart, we won't arrest you casually, you confess as soon as possible, so as not to suffer from the flesh and skin!" β
Buddha Yin lowered his eyelids and recited the Buddha's name.
"Lao Wei practiced Buddhism, he has long looked down on his skin, you have the ability, just do it casually, but Lao Wei wants to remind you that there are many things in the world, you don't want to make trouble for yourself."
"Okay, you shameless bald donkey, you dare to threaten this official, come here, punish me!"
At the sound of the order, there were several big men with bare bodies, revealing a palm-wide chest hair, and holding raw cowhide whips in their hands, all wrapped in iron wires.
The fierce gods and evil spirits possessed the body, and they raised their leather whips and dipped them in salt water, and they were about to do it.
Buddha Yin's heart is cold, this is going to be over!
At this time, someone suddenly ran over and whispered in the ear of Lang Zhong of the Criminal Department: "My lord, Jia Xianggong is here, please come over." β
