Chapter 889: Accepting the Mission

The dignified Seven Provinces Imperial Mission represents the actions of the Son of Heaven, if even he feels that he still has something that he can't do, it must be a very tricky thing, Song Ruilong actually feels the strength of the forces behind that case, but he doesn't have a full understanding of that case, and he doesn't know what ulterior secrets are behind that case.

Song Ruilong said: "Xia Guan just heard that this case is not easy to handle, and the forces involved are very wide, but Xia Guan knows very little about the forces behind this case?" ”

He Zhiyuan frowned lightly and said, "Lord Song, it is said that this case has arrested the corrupt Lu Xiangxian and cracked the power of Wohu Mountain, and this case will be closed." However, there was a huge amount of gold and silver in this case, but it was not accounted for. We searched the entire Crouching Tiger Mountain, and finally found only 120 million taels of silver. Most of the silver was brought in by the gamblers last night. Lord Song can think about it, there is so much silver in Crouching Tiger Mountain in one night, so there must be more silver hidden in Wohu Mountain. I asked the Tiger King's men, and they only knew that the gold and silver were transferred by the Tiger King himself, and no one knew about it, and as for the hiding place of the gold and silver, only the Tiger King knew. But now we haven't found the body of the Tiger King. ”

Song Ruilong thought of someone and said, "Did the adult ask Mu Jiefang?" ”

He Zhiyuan sighed: "Although that child is only fifteen years old, but she is very cunning, last night, I sent someone to put her in the prison, but she didn't know what method to use, she actually opened the door of the prison, killed two jailers, and now I don't know where to escape." However, I have already ordered her to be wanted throughout the country, and I believe that news will be available soon. ”

Song Ruilong shook his head and said, "This woman is slippery like a loach, if I knew this, I should have beaten her to death with one palm." ”

He Zhiyuan sighed: "Hey, it's just that I was careless at the time." ”

He Zhiyuan was silent for a moment, and then said: "Lord Song is an official outside, so he may not know about the affairs of the court. Now, Prime Minister Wang is bent on changing the law to change the status quo of poverty and backwardness in the country, but there are still many opposing forces in the court, especially those led by King Qi. Although the current King of Qi has no real power, many officials in the court have the handle in his hands, and he can let those officials do anything for him. There were also some officials whose interests were harmed by this change, so they begged the king of Qi to help them fight against the king. Therefore, it is difficult for Lord Wang's changes to be promoted for a while. ”

Song Ruilong said: "Lord Wang's changes involve many aspects such as military, farming, and forced labor, and these measures are very beneficial to the development of the country, and it is precisely because of the support of Lord Wang that Ping'an County can develop rapidly." Xia Guan felt that those who prevented the change of the law were all short-sighted, regardless of the long-term and only concerned about the present. ”

Song Ruilong was a little excited, but fully expressed his approval of the change.

Of course, He Zhiyuan also hoped that this change could continue, and said: "What Lord Song said is reasonable, and the current saint also supports the change, but this time the change was used by the King of Qi, and his power expanded rapidly in the court, which has dealt a fatal blow to Lord Wang's change. In the Holy Study's Imperial Study, there are endless pieces of music every day opposing the change, and I really worry that the Holy One will not have the confidence to continue reforming. ”

Song Ruilong knew that Wang Anshi's reform failed in the end, but the historical record is very general, and whether King Qi rebelled in the future is not mentioned in the textbook at all. Maybe King Qi really rebelled, but there was no record in the later history, and there was also a life experience about King Qi, which was born to a folk woman, which is not such a thing in history, so now that a King of Qi has emerged, Song Ruilong really doesn't know how it will develop in the future.

Song Ruilong's voice was very low: "Lord He is not worried about King Qi..."

Before Song Ruilong's words were finished, He Zhiyuan interrupted Song Ruilong's words, and after closing the windows and doors tightly, he said mysteriously: "Lord Song, this is a big crime to kill your head. I heard that there is a martial arts master in the palace of King Qi, who can come and go freely in the palace, and the so-called forbidden army is just an ornament in the eyes of that person. The saint knew that if that person wanted to kill him, it would be very easy, and the saint also knew that that person was the person of the king of Qi, so the saint did not dare to act rashly. ”

Song Ruilong was shocked: "What? There is such a person in the palace? ”

He Zhiyuan sighed and said, "Your Majesty's purpose in sending me to be the imperial mission of the Seven Provinces this time is to find out the power of King Qi in various places, and who is supporting him in the rivers and lakes. The saint also knew that the King of Qi didn't dare to do anything to him for the time being? If the saint suddenly dies, then there will be a little prince to inherit the throne. There is no little prince, there are other brothers in the saint, and it is not the turn of a person born in the people to be the emperor. Therefore, I think that the king of Qi is waiting, and he is waiting for the opportunity, it is likely that he is going to raise an army to rebel. ”

Song Ruilong pondered: "What does Lord He want to do under the official?" ”

He Zhiyuan said: "Does Lord Song know about the Medicine King Valley?" ”

Song Ruilong must know about the Medicine King Valley, because he went to the Medicine King Valley to ask the Medicine King to help Xiao Shujie remove the Gu poison on his body.

Song Ruilong said strangely: "Medicine King Valley, Xia Guan naturally knows. I don't know why Lord He suddenly asked this? ”

He Zhiyuan said in a deep voice: "The Medicine King Valley is still more than fifty miles away from here. In Yaowang Mountain, there is a gold mine, and that gold mine is not allowed to be opened by the imperial court. It was opened by a very mysterious non-governmental organization. The county order of Yaowang County stated that it was not powerless to stop those people from mining gold, and the imperial court could not allocate too many manpower to support the Shen County order for a while, and I had to rush back to the capital to report the situation of Wohu Mountain to the Holy Lord. So..."

Of course, Song Ruilong understood what He Zhiyuan meant, and he said very happily: "My lord wants Xia Guan to go to Yaowang County to help the county magistrate there fight against those who mine gold, right?" ”

He Zhiyuan patted Song Ruilong on the shoulder and said, "Only Lord Song can handle this matter." The three martial arts masters I sent out were all killed by those people, and those people also hung the heads of the three martial arts masters on the mountain of the gold mine, and no one else was allowed to collect the corpses. ”

Song Ruilong clenched his fists angrily and said, "It's simply unreasonable! ”

He Zhiyuan said earnestly: "This matter is up to Lord Song." Originally, I wanted to bring you to the palace and introduce you to Your Majesty, so that you could protect Your Majesty's safety in the palace, but now I can only wait a little longer, and those people will not do anything unfavorable to the Holy Lord. And..."
