Chapter 19 Shi Miyuan's Arrangement
Speaking of this Xia Zhen, this person is really one of Shi Miyuan's sworn friends, when Han Yanxuan was the prime minister, Xia Zhen was on an errand in the front of the palace, and he was already on official business in the front of the palace.
When Han Yanxuan was the prime minister, Shi Miyuan and Han Yanxuan had a deep contradiction, and the struggle between the main battle and the main peace was very fierce, but Han Yanxuan relied on his high power, coupled with Zhao Kuo's trust in him back then, and finally sent troops to the Northern Expedition when he was not ready, the result was that for various reasons, the Kaixi Northern Expedition launched by Han Yanzhou was declared a failure, the Song army was defeated, and the Jin army had the momentum of crossing the river to destroy the Song Dynasty, and the Southern Song Dynasty court was shaken by it, and wanted to negotiate peace with the Jin State.
But Jin Guo made a condition, to the Southern Song Dynasty to kill Han Yanxuan, the culprit, Shi Miyuan took advantage of this opportunity, colluded with Queen Yang, who had long been dissatisfied with Han Yanxuan, and Jiao Zhao found Xia Zhen, ordered him to ambush 300 soldiers, ambushed in Liubu Bridge, took Han Yanzhou down when Han Yanzhou entered the palace, and killed Han Yanzhou in Yujin Garden, cut off Han Yanzhou's head, and sent it to Jin Guo, and finally led by Shi Miyuan, and Jin Guo reached another truce agreement for the Southern Song Dynasty, losing power and humiliating the country, That is, the famous Jiading Peace Conference in history, since then the main battle faction of the Southern Song Dynasty has suffered a huge blow, causing Zhao Kuo to collapse from then on, and no longer have any interest in political affairs, and the power of the court fell into the hands of Shi Miyuan.
Therefore, Xia Zhen made great contributions that time, and became one of Shi Miyuan's henchmen, with him controlling the palace front division of the town guarding the land of Gyeonggi, Shi Miyuan mastered the military power of the capital, and his position was unshakable, so Xia Zhen was a hardcore supporter of Shi Miyuan.
And this matter Xia Zhen was on an errand in the palace, and as soon as he returned to his residence, he got a message, saying that Zheng Qingzhi Zheng had a letter from Shi Xiang and asked to see him.
Xia Zhen got up suspiciously to greet him, he, a military general, rarely interacts with a big Confucian like Zheng Qingzhi on weekdays, these guys have always looked down on them martial artists, and he doesn't want to use his hot face to stick to their cool buttocks, so basically he can only say that he knows, but he is not familiar with it, what kind of wind blew this crepe guy to his palace boss today?
And he actually invited Shi Xiang's letter to come out, which made the people really can't figure out what Zheng Qingzhi is doing.
When Xia Zhen let Zheng Qingzhi into the room and sat down to watch tea, just as Xia Zhen was about to greet Zheng Qingzhi and ask Zheng Qingzhi what was the matter, Zheng Qingzhi immediately put Shi Miyuan's jade pendant in front of Xia Zhen.
"What does Master Zheng mean by this? If you have something, you just have to say it, as long as Xia can do it, he will try his best to help Lord Zheng, why bother Lord Zheng to invite Shi Xiang's letter to come? Hehe! Xia Zhen was quite unhappy in his heart, and felt that Zheng Qingzhi was a little overwhelmed by his power when he did this, but he still said it very tactfully.
"Lord Xia, Zheng didn't come here this time for anything else, let alone for personal matters, Zheng was just entrusted by the prime minister, and he wanted to ask Lord Xia to do something immediately!" Zheng Qingzhi hugged his fists and said to Xia Zhen.
When Xia Zhen heard this, he didn't dare to hold it up, because he knew very well who had the final say in the court now, although he was also a minister from the second grade, but his appointment and dismissal were not up to him, because those people in the Privy Council of the Central Committee were his top bosses, and the people in the Privy Council still had to listen to Shi Miyuan's orders, not to mention that this time he was the commander of the palace before he became the commander, or he followed Shi Miyuan to kill Han Yanxuan before he got the position, it can be said that he is also Shi Miyuan's subordinate, Shi Miyuan sent Zheng Qingzhi over to do things, Naturally, he didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly asked Zheng Qingzhi what Shi Miyuan wanted him to do.
So Zheng Qingzhi concisely told Xia Zhen what happened in the Yiwang Mansion in the morning.
After listening to Zheng Qingzhi's words, don't look at it as the moon now, but the sweat on Xia Zhen's forehead still immediately flowed down, and his sensitive sense of smell had already sniffed out a trace of danger, because when this matter came out of Zheng Qingzhi's mouth, he had already pointed the finger at Xiao Liang, and Xiao Liang was under the control of the former division of the palace, even if he was his subordinate, he had more or less heard some things about Guicheng, and with his brain that was good at drilling, he could smell some smell.
There must be some ulterior motive behind Guicheng's trip to Beijing, and the promoter behind the scenes doesn't need to think about it, it must be Shi Miyuan, that is to say, Guicheng should be Shi Miyuan's person, and Xiao Liang is his subordinate Banzhi, but he is so unkind to Guicheng, a new upstart in the capital, and dares to pull out a knife in front of Guicheng to hurt people, and the person who hurts is still the celebrity in front of Guicheng, is this not clear to find trouble for him?
When Zheng Qingzhi finished speaking, Xia Zhen had already made up his mind in his heart, for Xiao Liang, although it belonged to his subordinates, but in this matter, he must not defend Xiao Liang, otherwise, it would be tantamount to offending Guicheng, and offending Guicheng would naturally be equivalent to offending Shi Miyuan, so after he heard it, he immediately took the case!
said angrily: "Xiao Liang, this guy is too bold!" actually committed such a crime, Lord Zheng can rest assured, this matter will be handed over to Xia to handle, and Xiao Liang will be punished for committing the crime, and his official position must not be removed! I'll go and arrange someone to tie that Xiao Liang back and put him in prison! ”
"Wait! Lord Xia, this matter seems easy, but in essence it is not so simple, it is best that Lord Xia can personally go to the Yiwang Mansion, so as not to let the people below do it, and there will be branches! When Xiang Ye ordered Zheng to come over just now, he specially instructed a few words, Lord Xia must remember that no matter who intercedes for Xiao Liang, Lord Xia must resist it, and Xiao Liang must be punished! In addition, there is one more thing that Xiang Ye asks Lord Xia to do, that is, after taking out Xiao Liang this time, please ask Lord Xia to transfer Gao Huaiyuan, the bitter lord this time, to serve in the front division of the palace, and send him to the Yiwang Mansion to take over Xiao Liang's position as the general manager! Zheng Qingzhi got up and stopped Xia Zhen, who was about to give an order, and said to him.
Xia Zhen opened his mouth for a moment, and the hand of his subordinates froze: "Oh? …… So...... Okay, Xia understands, I'll go to Yiwangfu to deal with this matter in person now! But the matter of calling that senior servant is not up to me alone, he is probably not a person in the army now, and the head of the palace guards are all military personnel, I don't seem to be able to handle it! ……”
Zheng Qingzhi raised his hand to stop Xia Zhen's words, and said: "Lord Xia doesn't have to worry about this matter, as long as you do what Shi Xiang instructs, that high-ranking servant is now subordinate to the Ministry of Officials, and you only need to find someone from the Ministry of Officials at that time!" ”
So Xia Zhen had nothing to say, and immediately arranged for someone to carry the horse, and brought some people from the front of the palace to the Yiwang Mansion, and then there would be a scene where Xia Zhen personally ran to the Yiwang Mansion.
After Xia Zhen arrived at the palace, he did not go to the inner hall to see the princess, but directly asked to see Guicheng, after arriving at Guicheng's courtyard, Xia Zhen was very polite to Guicheng, although he had never seen Guicheng, but this meeting, but it was like knowing Guicheng for a long time, and there was a kind of affection in his words.
Guicheng is also the first time to see Xia Zhen, for this Xia Zhen, he is still a little in awe, because when he was in Shaoxing before, the biggest official he has ever seen is Gao Huaiyuan's father, a seven-grade general judge, and after arriving in Beijing, the people who have dealt with him are also some civil officials, and the grades are also some officials with four or five grades, but Xia Zhen is a military general, and he is also responsible for the safety of Gyeonggi from the second grade. thanked Xia Zhen again and again.
"Hou Ye is too polite, this matter was originally Xia's business, not to mention that Xiao Liang's house was originally controlled by Xia, and now this guy dares to offend Hou Ye, it is really caused by Xia's lax royal majesty, Xia is really difficult to feel at ease!
After Xia heard about this today, he didn't dare to slack off, and immediately came to the palace to ask Hou Ye for his guilt, and I hope Hou Ye will bear with you! Please rest assured about this matter today, Xiao Liang was bold and reckless, and he made a mistake under the flying and domineering, disturbed Hou Ye, and stabbed your servant, this matter Xia will never take him lightly! It will be dealt with to the satisfaction of the Hou Ye!
Presumably this is the high-ranking servant who was injured by Xiao Liang! This incident made Gao Congzhi feel wronged! Xia Zhen hurriedly politely arrived, swearing that he would deal with it impartially and severely punish Xiao Liang! At the same time, he turned his head and turned his gaze to Gao Huaiyuan, who had been standing behind Guicheng and did not speak.
Gao Huaiyuan actually came here from Xia Zhen, and he has been secretly looking at the garrison commander in front of him, only to see that Xia Zhen is also very tall, and his face is also dignified, the skin on his face is white, but he has a square face and big ears, and a beautiful beard on his chin, a pair of big hands look very powerful, and he has a tiger and tiger between his big waist and round gestures, which is quite a bit of a mighty look, but there is only one point, so that Gao Huaiyuan can't feel cordial after seeing Xia Zhen.
