Chapter Twenty-Seven: Resisting the Decree Again, the Eldest Princess Goes South

On a hot night in early summer, the four doors of the Bianjing Emperor's Hall were wide open, and the slightest coolness brought by the ventilated door could not extinguish the anger in the hearts of everyone in the hall. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info full \ book \ small \ said \ net

"Pampered and proud! Zhao Lei This is a naked threat, more hateful than the Liao State, he actually called the illness and resisted the decree, and also played the impeachment of the official and Lord Chen, it is simply unforgivable, please make an order for the official to resign Zhao Lei! Under the dim light of the Imperial Palace, Chen Yaozuo, who was over the age of six, had a purple and hideous old face covered with age spots, and his boring and weak big hands were bruised, and he tightly squeezed Zhao Lei's fold in his hand, which was copied by a secretary and provincial official, and roared hysterically and said loudly to the official Zhao Zhen.

The official Zhao Zhen rested his right hand on the armrest of the dragon chair, his palm supported his handsome face, and the fingers of his left hand rhythmically tapped on the back of the dragon chair, looking suspiciously at the privy envoy Chen Yaozuo, who was not good-looking.

Chen Yaozuo has always been steady, why is he so disgraced today! Could it be that Zhao Lei's recital poked his sore spot? Could it be that he really colluded with Western Xia? Could it be that the part of the rocket cars and grenades that appeared in the Western Xia army in this Songxia Battle was really made by Chen Yaozuo? However, Chen Yaozuo is the chief envoy of the Privy Council of the imperial court, basically it can be said that he is under one person and above ten thousand, and he should not have to collude with Western Xia as a high-ranking and powerful person! But the words came out again, the prime minister of the southern courtyard of the Liao State could be bribed by King Meng's secret guards to speak for the Great Song Dynasty and pass on information at the same time, this Chen Yaozuo is not the prime minister yet! Could it really be that there is collusion with Western Xia?

The official Zhao Zhen carefully watched Chen Yaozuo's every move, and pondered in his heart the reason for Chen Yaozuo's gaffe today.

"Enlighten the official family! Chen thinks that Zhao Lei, Lord Zhao's recital is good! The Western Xia army did have the new weapons of my Great Song Dynasty. These weapons of the Great Song Army have just been equipped, and they appeared in the Western Xia Army, this matter, no matter what, to give an explanation to the people of the Great Song Dynasty, is it possible that some people are in foreign countries and betray the country! "There were only seven people involved in tonight's pilgrimage. Except for Zhao Yuanyan, the king of Meng, who was seriously ill and did not come, the two prime ministers, the two privy envoys, the two governors and the three envoys Ye Qingchen, the seven important ministers of the court, all arrived, and Wang Su, who had just been promoted to the governor, stood up at this time and said in a deep voice to the official Zhao Zhen.

"The Western Xia Army has the latest weapons of the Great Song Dynasty, and many generals in the north have seen this matter, and reported it to the Privy Council and Zhongshu Province, Chen Aiqing! As the chief envoy of the Privy Council, you are in charge of the military of the Great Song Dynasty, and the request for the division of weapons was also put forward by you, what do you think of the fact that the Western Xia Army has the latest weapons of the Great Song Dynasty! "The official Zhao Zhen didn't see King Meng Zhao Yuanyan. There was no way to ask King Meng, who had mastered the power of the secret guard, what he thought about this matter, and after thinking about it, the official Zhao Zhen decided to let the ministers below solve it by themselves, so he threw out his question and asked Chen Yaozuo.

"Enlighten the official family! There were 200,000 people in the northern border army of the Great Song Dynasty, and there were more than a dozen garrisons in the Western Xia. It is inevitable that some of these armies will collude with the Western Xia to embezzle the materials of the Great Song Dynasty, so the outflow of new weapons is inevitable! Chen Yaozuo had already thought of his words, and immediately replied to the official Zhao Zhen.

"Lord Chen! Do you know these things before you divide the new weapons? Wang Su didn't wait for the official Zhao Zhen to speak, and immediately stood up and asked Chen Yaozuo with a sneer.

Wang Su's question made Chen Yaozuo's words choked. This question is too tricky, and if we know it, it is inevitable that we will be suspected of having the enemy in the new weapons. If he doesn't know, then he, the privy envoy, is too incompetent, and no matter how he answers, he will leave the answer with a handle, and it is better not to say it.

"This official knows this kind of thing, so he carefully selects the troops of the land, these troops are personally selected by the officer, and the loyalty is beyond doubt, as for why the new weapons still leaked to the Western Xia, the official is not very clear. This official will carefully find out, and I will give you an explanation after finding out! Chen Yaozuo tried to change the topic and said.

"Huang Dehe's Yan'an Army is also one of the armies of the sub-weapon, is there such a thing?" Prime Minister Zhang Shixun, who had been watching Wang Su and Chen Yaozuo arguing, suddenly asked Chen Yaozuo in a deep voice.

Zhang Shixun's sudden question made Chen Yaozuo want to slap himself in the face, just now he said that the selection is a loyal army, and now he will be involved in Huang Dehe, Huang Dehe's crime of misleading the country and traitors has been confirmed, and everyone has been cut in half, and now he can't say anything to counter the case, Zhang Shixun's question directly smashed a crime of unknown people on Chen Yaozuo's head, and it is a crime that cannot be rejected.

"The minister is guilty, he didn't see clearly the face of Huang De and the traitor who was greedy for life and afraid of death, and let such a traitorous villain kill my Song Zhongyong soldiers!" Chen Yaozuo took retreat as an advance and immediately knelt down obediently and said to the official Zhao Zhen for guilt, but did not mention anything about the new weapons.

Without the opinion of Zhao Yuanyan, the king of Meng, who controlled the secret guard, the official Zhao Zhen really couldn't make up his mind to degrade Chen Yaozuo, and demote an official in the Song Dynasty, just one reason is enough, and the reason of not knowing people is enough to put Chen Yaozuo to the Privy Council and depose him from Beijing, but the official Zhao Zhen can't be sure whether Chen Yaozuo is in collusion with Western Xia, so he muttered for a long time, left a word for reconsideration, and left straight to find King Meng Zhao Yuanyan to seek the truth of Chen Yaozuo's collusion with Western Xia.

The result of the matter made the official Zhao Zhen angry, although he did not see Zhao Yuanyan, the king of Meng, but got the evidence that Chen Yaozuo really colluded with the Western Xia from the secret guard of Chen Yaozuo's mansion, it turned out that Chen Yaozuo's favorite concubine was actually a member of the Western Xia Party, and when he got this news, he did not need the evidence of Chen Yaozuo's collusion with the Western Xia, and the official family had decided to demote Chen Yaozuo and Chen Xiliang and others from the privy envoy.

At this moment, Chen Yaozuo's favorite concubine of the Western Xia Party actually killed a maid in the family by mistake, and Wang Su and others, who learned that the official Zhao Zhen intended to degrade Chen Yaozuo, immediately played in the wind, impeaching Chen Yaozuo for not knowing anyone and not governing the family strictly, and finally the official Zhao Zhen Chrysostom opened, Chen Yaozuo was demoted to Lingnan, and he was unlucky at the same time as the privy deputy envoy Chen Xiliang and more than a dozen officials of the Privy Council, that is, Fan Zhongyan, the commander of the new army.

The official Zhao Zhen finally completed Zhao Lei's request. Zhao Zhen, an official of the Privy Council who had proposed to divide up the weapons of the new army and at the same time compress Zhao Lei's contribution to the capture of Luzon, sent an envoy to Hangzhou again to transfer the envoy Yamen and asked Zhao Lei to go north.

However, to the surprise of the official Zhao Zhen and the important ministers of the imperial court, Zhao Lei once again called the disease and resisted the order. followed the chamberlain back to Bianjing, and it was another book of the three envoys Ye Qingchen.

……

"Zhao Lei is taking revenge, revenge on Ye Qingchen for looting the money in the logistics yamen of the New Army, revenge for Chen Yaozuo and others for suppressing him, and at the same time, he is also revenge on the official family for not coming forward to support him!" King Meng Zhao Yuanyan smiled and said indifferently, without the slightest anger.

After a few days of organization, his body has improved, but his face is still a little pale, the price of his youthful romance finally made King Meng taste the bitterness at this time, and his physical discomfort made him rarely contribute to the major affairs of the imperial court, if it were not for the official Zhao Zhen to come this time, he would definitely not come to the palace at night.

The two consecutive chamberlains returned to Kyoto to catch up with ten o'clock in the evening, and when the official Zhao Zhen Zhao Qi court officials discussed things, it was in the middle of the moon.

"It is not necessary to deal with Zhao Lei in Western Xia, Wang De of the Yongxing Army is also brilliant with Lord Wang. Maybe we can give an order for Lord Wang to lead the troops against the Western Xia army! As the conservative prime minister Li Ruogu, who was promoted by the official Zhao Zhen in order to maintain the balance of the imperial court, he was very reluctant to see Zhao Lei come back, and now seeing Zhao Lei and Long Wangshu impeach Ye Qingchen again, Li Ruogu did not think that the official Zhao Zhen would degrade another henchman Ye Qingchen for Zhao Lei, and then said to the official Zhao Zhen in a deep voice in the Imperial Palace.

"Now deal with Western Xia. It has to be Zhao Lei! You are also aware of Zhao Lei's contributions in the South China Sea, and you have also seen the imperial court's suppression of Zhao Lei. What do you think the military generals think about these things, don't forget that since the founding of Taizu, the military generals of the Great Song Dynasty have been suspicious of the imperial court, and the battle has always required no merit and no fault, Wang Deyong was degraded because of his appearance, Zhao Lei was degraded because of his greed for ink, and two military generals in a row were so suppressed by the imperial court, who would dare to make meritorious contributions to the imperial court, except for those young generals who were willing to serve desperately, look at this Song Xia battle. The meritorious generals are all under the age of thirty, what does this mean, this shows that my Great Song Army is not unable to repel the Western Xia Army, but after repelling the Western Xia Army, what will happen to the meritorious generals, Wang Deyong and Zhao Lei are a lesson from the past! "Zhao Yuan, the king of Meng, was sick and cowardly told the facts of the Great Song Dynasty that all the officials of the imperial court understood, but did not dare to say it openly.

The words of Zhao Yuanyan, the king of Meng, made the official Zhao Zhen smile bitterly in his heart, as the son of the Great Song Dynasty, how did Zhao Zhen not know the current situation of the Great Song Dynasty, but since Taizu usurped the Zhou family with the army, in order to protect the Jiangshan Sheji, the emperors of the Great Song Dynasty of the past dynasties have emphasized literature and light on martial arts, and have suppressed meritorious generals with literature, and people with a discerning eye know the consequences of doing so, but Zhao Zhen did not dare to disobey, when it comes to the fundamentals, it is still the Zhao family who is afraid, the Zhao family has stolen other families, and is afraid that others will follow the example of stealing the Zhao family and the country, think about Tang Taizong Li Shimin is heroic enough to be famous and martial, Killing his brother and killing his brother and imprisoning his father, the result! Li Shimin's descendants have followed the same example, and there have been descendants of the Li family who have rebelled in the past dynasties, and they are also under the banner of learning Taizong, so Zhao Zhen does not dare to give power to the martial artists at all, and he is also afraid that someone will use the slogan of learning Song Taizu to directly add yellow robes and oppose the Zhao family.

"Zhao Lei is not Wang Deyong, Wang Deyong was born as a general, and although Zhao Lei did not go through the imperial examination, he made friends with Ouyang Xiu, Fan Zhongyan and others, and he is also the younger brother of Lord Wang, and he is also a literati, with this background, Zhao Lei is not afraid of the suppression of the imperial court, after all, he is both civil and military, whether it is the three provinces, the privy envoy or the three divisions, they are all qualified to enter, relying on this, he dares to fight, so to deal with Western Xia, it must be Zhao Lei!" King Meng Zhao Yuanyan said in a deep voice to the official Zhao Zhen and other ministers.

"Zhao Lei impeached Ye Qingchen to get the power of the king, built seven palaces for the official family in the past few years, spent a huge amount of silver taels, and preserved the official position of his three envoys, but increased the expenses of the court, these are all facts, and it is the favorite excuse of the official, I am afraid that after the official knows about this matter tomorrow, he will impeach Ye Qingchen in a group, the Privy Council has just changed blood, and at this time, the third division will be moved, I am afraid it will cause turmoil in the court!" Li Ruogu didn't want Zhao Lei to bring down Ye Qingchen so easily, so Zhao Lei's prestige would undoubtedly increase a lot, so he immediately raised an objection and said.

"Remove Lord Ye from the post of the third division, but serve as the deputy envoy of the third division, and temporarily take charge of the third division!" King Meng Zhao Yuanyan narrowed his eyes and said confidently.

"I'm afraid Zhao Lei won't agree! What if he continues to feign illness! The official Zhao Zhen looked at King Meng Zhao Yuanyan uncomfortably and asked.

"If you continue to send the chamberlain to announce the decree, of course Zhao Lei will not agree, but if someone else announces the decree, Zhao Lei will definitely go north!" King Meng Zhao Yuanyan gestured in the direction of the Four Saints with his eyes, and said to the official Zhao Zhen with a slight smile.

How did you forget the eldest princess! Okay, you Zhao Lei, this time I sent the royal sister to issue the decree in person, see how you Zhao Lei still shirked this holy decree, are you still pretending to be sick! After the official Zhao Zhen was woken up by King Meng, he thought excitedly.

At the beginning of May of the second year of the Great Song Dynasty, the eldest princess of the Great Song Dynasty received the holy decree and took the holy decree to go south along the waterway and go towards Hangzhou.

The child and his mother are going to Hangzhou to issue the decree in person, I don't know if Zhao Lei will continue to resist the decree this time!
