Chapter 631: Cai Jing of Knowledge

"Chief, what does that dog officer surnamed Cai mean by sending us such a document?" The evil ghost asked with a puzzled face, and the fish lady next to him also frowned and looked at an official document in her hand, her eyes were also full of incomprehension.

It turned out that just this morning, the evil ghost and the fish girl had just had breakfast, but they suddenly received an official letter from the governor's government, and the content of this official document made them very strange, because this official document turned out to be a commendation for their defense against pirates on the big island of Liuqiu, not only to make up for the previous arrears of military salaries and weapons, but also to compensate a large amount of copper coins and food, which is really confusing.

"We were forced to take refuge on Liuqiu Island, although it is called to assist in clearing pirates, but that is just an excuse for Liuqiu Zhizhou to help us, in fact, there are no pirates to suppress at all, Cai Jing should have known about this matter a long time ago, but this official document should also be from him, what does this mean?" Yu Niang looked at the official document at this time and muttered to herself in the same puzzlement.

Looking at the puzzled looks of the two subordinates, Xu Yuan, who was sitting next to him and drinking tea, chuckled and said: "If you two don't understand, don't think about it, but you just need to know that this is a signal that Cai Jing proposed reconciliation to you, and if it is not as I expected, I am afraid that he will visit the third brother soon, and then there will be a result in this matter." ”

Xu Yuan's guess is indeed good, in fact, when they were talking, Zhao Yan met Cai Jing who asked to see him alone in the living room, although they only met yesterday, but as soon as Cai Jing entered the door today, he said a lot of words of admiration, Zhao Yan also smiled and asked the other party to sit down, and just chatted a few words along with Cai Jing's words, but he never mentioned the matter of the fish girl.

Although Zhao Yan was not in a hurry, Cai Jing was in a hurry. In the end, he couldn't help it, so he took the lead in cutting to the chase and said: "His Royal Highness King Yue, Xiaguan saw General Qi and others from the original Rakshasa Army coming with you yesterday, speaking of which, some time ago, Xiaguan was deceived by villains and had some conflicts with General Qi, but now it has been clarified." The matter has nothing to do with General Qi and them, and the lower officials are worried that His Highness will misunderstand, so I want to explain it to you personally! ”

"Oh, it turns out that Cai Zhizhou came here for the sake of Yu Niang and the evil ghosts, speaking of which, this king also heard them talk about the conflict with Cai Zhizhou before, but this king has always thought that there must be some misunderstanding, and now it seems that this is the case, but now Cai Zhizhou has already known that he has wronged Yu Niang and them, so he has to compensate them more. lest they be dissatisfied! When Zhao Yan heard this, he made a look of indifference, as if it was just a trivial matter.

"Yue Wang Yingming, there are indeed some misunderstandings in this, and now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, the lower officials have also ordered someone to give General Qi some compensation to them, I hope they don't take it too seriously!" Cai Jing saw that Zhao Yan didn't care, and he smiled with a smile in his heart, as long as Zhao Yan didn't blame him. And then settled Yu Niang and others, then the previous conflict was nothing at all.

Although Zhao Yan was already very clear about the conflict between Yu Niang and Cai Jing. However, he still pretended to ask a few casual questions, and then began to ask about the situation in Guangzhou in all aspects, which made Cai Jing even more peaceful in his heart, and began to seriously answer Zhao Yan's question about Guangzhou, although he has a treacherous personality, he still works very hard as an official. He is also very familiar with the city of Guangzhou under his rule, and no matter what Zhao Yan asks, he will answer it fluently. In fact, if you put aside Cai Jing's population, he is actually a very capable official, and even in the original history, Cai Jing established a very complete pension system in the Great Song Dynasty. It is a major innovation in the history of the Central Plains.

Zhao Yan chatted with Cai Jing for a while, and then served tea to send off guests, Cai Jing was also very interested in this, under the pretext that he was busy with official business, Zhao Yan personally sent him out, until Cai Jing got into the carriage and left, Zhao Yan's face showed a sneer, in fact, he had already guessed that Cai Jing would take the initiative to admit his mistake, but he didn't expect him to be so fast, it seems that the other party is also a very decisive person, otherwise it would not be possible to become a famous traitor in history.

After sending Cai Jing away, Zhao Yan came directly to Xu Yuan, and the fish girl and the evil ghost were also waiting to report this matter to Zhao Yan, so as soon as Zhao Yan came in, they handed over the official document sent by Cai Jing to Zhao Yan to watch, but Zhao Yan sneered after reading it: "Cai Jing is really generous, he actually gave you so much compensation, but unfortunately these are all things from the imperial court, and he doesn't feel distressed at all when he spends it." ”

"This Cai Jing is this kind of villain, he bullied us before, and now he wants to come up with some benefits to reconcile, and he doesn't have to spend his own money, how can there be such a good thing in the world?" Yu Niang also said angrily at this time, although she was very restrained before, but at that time they were inferior, so they had to be restrained, but now that Zhao Yan and Xu Yuan are in charge of them, naturally there is no need to restrain them.

"Yes, now it's our reason, we must not let go of that Cai Jing lightly this time!" At this time, the evil ghost also opened his mouth and echoed, he had long been eager to slaughter Cai Jing himself, and now that he had this opportunity, it was naturally impossible to give up lightly.

Seeing the angry appearance of the fish girl and the evil ghost, Zhao Yan shook his head with a smile and said: "You two think too simply, it is not enough to punish Cai Jing severely based on your affairs, even if I do it myself, at most I will sue him to the court for dereliction of duty, but unfortunately with the current power of the new party, even if it is useless to sue the court, in the end, at most, the new party will transfer him out of Guangzhou and serve in other places, so that he can add a disgraceful history to his qualifications." ”

Zhao Yan didn't lie to them, in fact, although Cai Jing's actions were angry, he was an important figure in the new party after all, and it was not easy to move him, in addition, Cai Jing was a civil official, and it was almost his duty to suppress military generals, so although his previous motives were not pure, strictly speaking, it could not be said to be wrong, at least in the eyes of civil officials, it was nothing at all, so it was difficult for Zhao Yan to convict him, at most, he used his influence to transfer him out of Guangzhou, and it was impossible to make Cai Jing lose his official position.

Hearing Zhao Yan's words, Yu Niang and the evil ghost both showed puzzled expressions, but they also knew that Zhao Yan would definitely not lie to them, since he said that he couldn't take Cai Jing well, then it must be the truth, but when he thought of the humiliation he had received before, he was still very unwilling in his heart.

However, I saw that Zhao Yan hesitated at this time, and then said again: "Yu Niang, evil ghosts, we are not outsiders, I will say some things directly, although I can use your affairs to transfer Cai Jing away this time, but I think it is better to let him stay, since Cai Jing has already surrendered to you, then don't pursue it further." ”

"Why?" The evil ghost and the fish girl said almost in unison at this time, and their faces also showed a little angry.

This time, before Zhao Yan could speak, Xu Yuan next to him said with a smile: "Yu Niang, don't be angry, in fact, even if the third brother doesn't say it, I will make you don't have to pursue Cai Jing anymore, because it is far better to let him stay than to transfer him." ”

"Leader, what do you mean by this, do you want Cai Jing to stay, so that we can take revenge in the future?" When the demon said to the end, his eyes lit up.

"Hehe, it can't be said to be revenge, in fact, the reason why I said that it is better to let Cai Jing stay than to transfer him, because after your incident, he has a handle in my hands, if he does not go my way, then I can let him get out of Guangzhou City at any time, it just so happens that I am in charge of maritime trade this time, there are many things that need to be completed in Guangzhou, if there is an obedient Zhizhou to assist, I can also be much easier."

When he said this, Zhao Yan paused for a moment and then said: "In addition, Cai Jing, as a member of the New Party, spared no effort to promote the new law after coming to Guangzhou, which made the people of Guangzhou miserable. ”

Zhao Yan's reason is that one is private and the other is public, and they are very sufficient, Yu Niang and the evil ghost also fell silent after hearing it, and after a while, I saw Yu Niang take the lead and said: "His Royal Highness King Yue is thoughtful, and the little woman admires it, since it is beneficial for us to let Cai Jing go in public and private, then the little woman will be generous once, as long as Cai Jing no longer provokes us, we will definitely not mention the previous things again!" ”

Although the evil ghost was short-tempered, he listened to Xu Yuan and Yu Niang's words the most, and now seeing that both of them agreed to let Cai Jing go, he had to nod and agree at the moment: "All the qiē are in charge of His Royal Highness King Yue!" ”

"Haha~, I knew that you would take care of the overall situation, this time this king owes you a favor, if you encounter any difficulties in the future, just come to this king, this king will definitely do his best to help you!" Zhao Yan also laughed and said at the moment, which also made Yu Niang and the evil ghost show a surprised expression, you must know that with Zhao Yan's identity, his favor is worth more than anything, so they no longer have any complaints at this time, especially Yu Niang's eyes are bright, as if she is thinking about something?

After dealing with Yu Niang's affairs, Cai Jing was really much more honest in the future, especially for Zhao Yan, who was more respectful, and even took the initiative to say that if Zhao Yan needed anything in the future, he would definitely try his best to cooperate. For Cai Jing, who is so knowledgeable, although Zhao Yan knows that the other party is a treacherous person, he still can't help but appreciate his cleverness.

After a few days of rest, Zhao Yan finally officially began to take over the Great Song Sea Trade Industry, but before that, he still had a lot of things to prepare. (To be continued......)
