Chapter 420: Rumors

Wang Yan wanted revenge, and the targets of revenge were Lin Zhao and Zheng Xia. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Lin Zhao's matter was not achieved overnight, and it still needed to be considered in the long run, and it should not be taken lightly. But Zheng Xia, Wang Yan didn't take him seriously, in the end he was just a young magistrate without any background, so there was nothing to worry about.

In addition, he opposes the change of the law, which is a huge blow to Wang Anshi's prestige and confidence, and he must be severely punished to set an example. Zheng Xia is completely a victim, he is insignificant, from beginning to end, Wang Yan has never looked at him in his eyes, and he has not looked at him directly.

An Shangjian is just a petty official guarding the door. Let a dignified soldier, a state judicial join the army to come to the door. is definitely overkill, it is deliberately belittled and exiled, Wang Yan just wants to tell the world in this way that this is the end of provoking Wang Xianggong.

Sometimes things are so evil, Wang Yan would never have thought of it. In a few years, what kind of turmoil will happen because of his stupid decision. How many people can stand still in the midst of the turmoil? What kind of influence did his father Wang Anshi have on the Great Song Dynasty?

History is inevitable, but there are many times such accidents. Today's small move inadvertently laid a foreshadowing......

Wang Anshi doted on Wang Yan too much, and although he felt that Zheng Xia's treatment was a little excessive, he finally agreed to his son's suggestion. He has had so much to deal with lately that he's been very busy. There really isn't much effort and effort on such trivial matters, so it was put in the back of my mind, and it was just a disappointment after all. It's a pity that Zheng Xia, a material that can be made, died like this. Since then, he has been reduced to a gatekeeper......

On the list of Wang Yan's revenge. Zheng Xia is not alone. The other is Lin Zhao. However, Zheng Xia's matter can be said to be with the help of his father's power, but Lin Zhao's matter cannot be mentioned.

Wang Yan knew that Wang Anshi liked Lin Zhao in his heart. And the last time Li Fugui happened, Wang Anshi always felt ashamed of Lin Zhao, and almost caused Lin Zhao to die innocently, and he always felt guilty in his heart. He didn't know that all this was an action planned by his son and Gaozu Lu Huiqing. In a word. Wang Anshi felt sorry for Lin Zhao and should be compensated for finding an opportunity.

At this moment, if he wants to "murder" Lin Zhao again, if Wang Anshi knows about it, he will definitely refuse. If the evidence is conclusive, it is good to determine that Lin Zhao has collaborated with the enemy and committed treason, then Wang Anshi is still willing to deal with it impartially and without favoritism. But now that it's just such a situation, what attitude will Wang Anshi have?

In case my father objected, I would do it in secret. Isn't it against his father's opinion, and there is a suspicion of disobedience and filial piety. That's when it was trouble. Moreover, there are many personal grievances sandwiched between them, and the means of dealing with them must not be so glorious. Wang Yan wants to do these things by himself.

He wants to maintain his good image in his father's impression, and he also hopes that his father's reputation can be maintained, so he is willing to do some things himself.

To deal with Lin Zhao, just do it yourself in private!

Lin Zhao's matter is currently just chasing after the wind, but the official has the power to hear about the news, so he can act immediately. However, relying on this rumor without evidence alone will not have much effect. However, to a certain extent, it is possible to touch the black Lin Zhao, after all, in the Great Song Dynasty, reputation and morality are really too important.

Lin Zhao also made great contributions in the northwest this time, especially when Dashun City captured Liang Yi, the prime minister of the Western Xia Kingdom, in the first battle, which was a great joy that he had never had. The DPRK and China are full of praise, and there are not a few people who ask for credit for it. It is foreseeable that after Lin Zhao returns to Bianjing, there will be a reward after all.

If the matter of this peace talks is properly resolved, it will undoubtedly be two great achievements, and it will be even more beautiful. This is something that Wang Yan absolutely does not want to see, how can he tolerate such a situation when he is jealous? If there is a mistake at this time, and then it is deliberately amplified, it will inevitably cover up Lin Zhao's merits to a certain extent, and even make the merits disappear. If you make good use of it, maybe you will let Lin Zhao drink a good pot.

For all reasons, this is a worthwhile thing to do. After all, there will be no loss for himself, as long as Lin Zhao has the slightest loss because of this matter, it will make people happy. Rumors can sometimes be sharp and can hurt.

If this rumor is true, or if there is a way to make it true, then the effect will be even more extraordinary. Not to mention meritorious service, this person's reputation and future will be completely ruined. That's a crime of deception, maybe you will lose your life.

Thinking about Wang Yan, I feel excited, such a good opportunity will never be missed.

So, they sent people to the northwest to find out the news. While launching his subordinates to impeach Lin Zhao, the prime minister's son and the No. 2 person in the New Party, Wang Yan and Lu Huiqing still had a lot of people around them. It's too easy to impeach a person, but they don't have many impeachments at the moment, or even just sporadic.

Sometimes it only takes a start, and someone will follow suit. Especially when the news is more confirmed, or when it becomes more confusing, someone will join in to help. In this way, there will be no traces of deliberateness, and it will not attract the attention of others, Wang Yan is also considerate.

And Lu Huiqing was even more cautious, he used the emperor once, and the price was very heavy, and he almost lost his official position. Afterwards, Lu Huiqing was very afraid, and from then on she was much more cautious to do such things. But many times it's just self-deception and not letting others catch the handle.

However, because the peace talks with the Western Xia were too important, although they were only sporadic impeachments, they still attracted attention and immediately caused a lot of discussion. Lin Zhao is still in the northwest, but the rumors in the court have risen. Many people have the attitude of believing what they have and not believing what they don't, and they have everything to say for a while.

Emperor Zhao Ji also noticed that he was a little sad recently. The death of three sons in a row is somewhat of a blow to a father.

But after being sad, you still have to stand up strongly, after all, he is an emperor. As an emperor, you must be stronger than ordinary people, and some personal feelings must be put aside. For the death of his son. After that, he didn't think it really mattered.

After all, I'm still young. It is not the same as Emperor Injong, the emperor. It only takes a little effort. I believe that there will be good news in the harem soon, there will always be a son, there will definitely be a son who can grow up if he survives, and there will definitely be successors in the country, so don't worry too much......

After the harem accepted a few more concubines, Zhao Ji finally came out of the pain of losing his son. Devoted himself to the government and politics, he didn't know what the situation of the people was when it came to changing the law. The financial situation reported by the three divisions has improved greatly, and the income of the imperial court has increased considerably.

Hiding wealth in the country, this is one of Zhao Ji's views, and he is very happy about it. When the court is rich, it can do more things and become a rich and strong country. This is a good sign, Zhao Ji is very confident all of a sudden, full of confidence in the future, and the era of his own ambitions is finally coming.

Naturally, he attaches great importance to changing the law, and he attaches more importance to Wang Anshi. The results of the change are remarkable! The emperor was still young, so he neglected many things. What is seen is only the appearance. Moreover, the opposition of the previous Manchu ministers was too fierce, which greatly stimulated Zhao Ji's rebellious psychology.

Now, when it can be said to speak with facts, he thinks that the conclusions in the accounts prove that he is right, and that the ministers who oppose him are wrong. So he inevitably felt a little proud and proud in his heart, and he didn't take other people's words seriously.

Zhao Ji was overjoyed, and it was precisely because of this that he completely came out of the pain of losing his son. But just when he was ready to push forward the change with all his might, he began to make great progress.

God is a little unhelpful, it has been hot and rainless since late spring. The situation reported by the Ministry of Household Affairs and the prefectures and counties is very serious, and there are already signs of drought in many places, especially along the Yellow River and in Hebei. In ancient times, it was an era of relying on the sky for food, and the harvest had a great relationship with the weather.

Zhao Ji was very helpless, this drought came at an inopportune time, and it would inevitably lead to a reduction in the harvest in the north. In this way, the money spent by the imperial court in disaster relief and grain transportation will undoubtedly increase greatly, and it will also cause a series of social problems, and even displaced people, and then it will be necessary to defend and pacify, which is really troublesome!

On the one hand, Zhao Ji stepped up efforts to let the household department count the disaster situation, and at the same time prepared for grain disaster relief, and at the same time instructed the Ministry of Industry to build canals, divert water for irrigation, and rescue grain. As for how much can be saved, now it can only be done to obey the fate of God.

The biggest concern is not the drought, which is often followed by heavy rains. Si Tianjian's observation is also the same opinion, although An Chongning is not good at observing the weather, but Si Tianjian has other experienced people, and the conclusion drawn is not bad.

There may be heavy rain in summer and autumn, which may cause flooding, which is what Zhao is most worried about. Once it rains heavily, the flooding of the Yellow River will inevitably start again, threatening Bianjing and wreaking havoc on Hebei. After all, the drought is only a poor harvest, and the most serious thing is a bad harvest, and the disaster is still within the controllable range, and the destructive power is limited.

But the floods are uncontrollable, and their destructive power is staggering. Cities and thousands of acres of fertile land may be wiped out in a flood. Not only does it threaten people's basic livelihood, but it may even threaten people's lives......

Especially in the Great Song Dynasty, the flooding of the Yellow River was so serious......

Bianjing City is located on the banks of the Yellow River, completely surrounded by many rivers, which is undoubtedly even more terrifying. There is also the land of Hebei, which was originally a fertile field, but it became devastated because of the flooding of the Yellow River. Han Qi has been working hard over there for a long time, and finally has some results, if there is another big flood this year, everything will be wasted......

Thinking of these things, Zhao Ji really had a big head. These are related to the change of law and martial arts, but they are related to the safety and stability of the country, and he does not dare to ignore it.

Recently, there have even been some apprehensions. On weekdays, I often summon the household department, the Ministry of Industry, the three divisions and Zaifu to inquire about the situation and discuss countermeasures, hoping to be prepared and deal with it calmly when the time comes.

At this time, Zhao Ji naturally didn't want other things to bother. The most important thing in the Great Song Dynasty at the moment was the battle to defend the seedlings due to the drought, and the flood control and rescue that might occur next......

Of course, one other major event is that the peace talks between Song and Xia in the northwest are still underway. There was a period of armistice in the northwest, so that many people left it behind, but in fact, the Song and Xia were still in a state of hostility, and everything was maintained on peace talks.

Therefore, when there is a disaster in the country, the more taboo it is, or the fear of war, it is indeed not appropriate for the Song and Xia to continue fighting, and the truce and peace talks are the best result. Zhao Ji and most of the officials of the Manchu Dynasty thought like this, so even in an advantageous situation, they were willing to give up their interests to settle the matter.

Zhao Ji believes that he has already made a square move, and it is not difficult to do this. The peace talk envoy is Lin Zhao, he knows best what his ability is, he is completely competent, just wait for the good news.

But at this moment, Zhao Ji found such a movement. Lin Zhao's wife was captured by the Western Xia, and Lin Zhao himself secretly had contact with the Western Xia......

Is it possible? The answer is yes.

If it's true, then the question arises. Why didn't you know about such a big thing? Is it Lin Zhao deliberately concealing it, or is the news lagging behind. For an emperor, this is an extremely angry thing, and it is serious to say that it involves the crime of deceitful king. One more point, how did Lin Zhao become this peace negotiator? His identity is a little intriguing.

But after thinking about it, it was recommended by Zeng Gong, Zhao Luan and many others, and there are many characters involved, it seems that it can't be a deliberate act, maybe it's just a coincidence! Zhao Ji can only think like this now......

Moreover, if Lin Zhao's wife was really captured, would Lin Zhao's position in the peace talks Guo Chen be firm? Listening to the meaning of Yu Shi's words, Lin Zhao had contact with the Western Xia people in private, which was even more terrifying. Could it be that he used his power for personal gain and betrayed the interests of the Great Song Dynasty in the process of peace talks?

This issue is very sensitive, many people are conjecturing, and all kinds of theories are flying all over the sky. Zhao Ji was also very displeased, but he couldn't make any decisions and orders, after all, it was just a statement so far, and there was no evidence. Moreover, the peace talks have already begun, and it seems very inappropriate to replace the peace talks at this time? This is no different from changing generals before the battle, but it is a taboo for soldiers!

Now I can only ignore it for the time being, and then look at the situation in Suizhou, the results of the peace talks and Lin Zhao's actions are extremely important. Zhao Ji looked at the northwest and said softly: "Dongyang, will you betray me?" ”。 (To be continued......)
