Since ancient times, the magistrates of the capital are not easy to be, the upper part is to manage the capital for the emperor, and the lower part has to have an explanation to the people.

The most troublesome thing is that there are a large number of powerful people in the capital, and there are many sons and daughters, and bullying often occurs. No matter if the people don't agree, sometimes they can't help if they want to, and if they don't get it right, they will offend the powerful, and they will have too many constraints and a hard time.

So much so that there is a saying: Three lives are unfortunate, and the county is attached to Guo; Three lives do evil, attached to the provincial city of Guo; The evil is full of evil, attached to Guo Jingcheng. It can be seen how miserable the magistrates of the capital are, Jing Zhaoyin of the Han Dynasty, Chang'an Ling of the Tang Dynasty, and now Kaifeng Mansion Yin of the Great Song Dynasty, are all facing such a dilemma.

Wu Tingzuo is now the Quan Zhi Kaifeng Mansion, that is, the acting Kaifeng Mansion Yin, and his situation is slightly better than that of the ordinary capital governor in the prosperous era. First of all, his previous status was not low, as early as the Later Zhou Dynasty, he was the envoy of the Southern Court of Xuanhui, and served as the governor of Xijing, that is, the local governor of Luoyang.

This qualification is quite convincing to the public, plus Zhao Kuangyin has left the capital twice in person, and Wu Tingzuo is responsible for staying in Bianliang. The responsibility is heavy, the power is great, there are holy intentions, and there are many people who are afraid. In the days when the emperor left, he cooperated with Zhao Guangyi, who stayed in the inner house, with Lu Yuqing, to maintain the stability of Bianliang.

After months of being quiet and calm, Wu Tingzuo breathed a sigh of relief that he could finally make an account to the emperor. But he never expected that at this last moment, on the first day of the emperor's return to the capital, he was assassinated. Although the emperor didn't say anything on the spot, Wu Tingzuo knew that Long Yan's anger was certain, and this could be regarded as his own mistake.

While handing over the fold of the plea, he arranged for people to strengthen the security and management in Bianliang City, and guard against possible hidden dangers.

On this night, Ngo Dinh Zuo was in a nervous mood. Afraid that something would go wrong, he didn't even dare to go home, and he kept sitting in Kaifeng Mansion. Sure enough, shortly after nightfall, there was a fight on West Street.

On weekdays, this is nothing, but today is special, and it is near Kaifeng Mansion, so I should pay attention to it. However, a weapon fight was not enough for him to go to a dignified mansion, so he sent a few capable servants to deal with it. Wu Tingzuo never expected it. Such a casual but reasonable arrangement was destined to make him regret it.

……

However, it was said that Zhao Zheng shot on West Street, and beat the Yanei and a group of Hao slaves all over the ground to find teeth, and the movement was a bit big, and someone immediately reported to Kaifeng Mansion, and the messenger was then ordered to arrive.

"What's going on?" When the messenger saw several groups of people bleeding and falling to the ground, he subconsciously regarded Zhao Zheng, who was standing aside with a cold expression, as a murderer, and his attitude was not very kind.

"This man committed murder and injured our ......" The cow's back yaunai spat out a few unexpressive syllables with his leaky teeth. Accuse Zhao Zheng.

"Who are you?" The servants were the most observant, and when they saw that the Yanai was riding in a carriage, they knew that their identity was extraordinary, and they inquired first.

"Ben Gongzi...... Zhao Anbang. Father's ...... Wu Xin Festival envoy, guard infantry ...... The commander made Zhao Yanhui ...... "Yanai vomited blood while struggling to reveal his father's official position.

The servants were taken aback, and the envoys of the early Song Dynasty were still quite powerful. And he is also the commander of the infantry army of the guard division. Senior General of the Forbidden Army, this status is not low. It was really unexpected that his family's yamen was beaten so violently......

The servants are all old fritters. It is inevitable to bully the weak and fear the hard, and when you encounter the powerful, you must not be partial. Moreover, this situation seems to be very obvious, even if there is a mistake in the ya, it is an indisputable fact that the other party hurts people. The former servant Long Si turned around and looked at Zhao Zheng viciously, and said angrily: "You wait for the murder on the street, take them all away and detain them, and interrogate them in the future." As he spoke, he saw Zhao Zheng's sword and jade Buddha, and said coldly: "The murder weapon and the stolen goods are also taken away!" ”

"What about them?" Zhao Zheng remained silent and asked coldly.

"Of course, it's all cured!" Long Si glanced at Zhao Zheng angrily, turned around and said, "Send someone back to the Jiedu Embassy immediately." ”

Zhao Zheng sneered: "The service is really considerate and thoughtful!" ”

"So what do you think?" Long Si said coldly: "Help me, take it away!" ”

Zhao Zheng still said calmly: "Don't you ask the reason for the matter?" Another day, Lord Yin of the Prefecture will be tried, and you should also have a record of on-site investigation, right? ”

"Do you need to ask? Thou hast committed murder and wounded several people, and all who are present are witnesses to this! "Long Si is very impatient, and he is doing this completely to curry favor with Zhao Yanhui's family. He can also foresee that this "murderer" will have to be recharged if he does not die, and the Jiedu Embassy will not let him go.

Zhao Zheng said: "Okay, I'll go with you, but when can I leave?" ”

"Leave?" Long Si sneered: "Murder and hurt people, and you want to leave after entering the prison of Kaifeng Mansion?" ”

Zhao Zheng said very calmly: "It's okay if you don't leave, it's just that I'm about to go to King Wei's Mansion as a guest, and I can't go now, so I'm sorry for you to help inform Prince Fu!" ”

Long Si chuckled in his heart, going to the Wei Palace's Mansion as a guest, doesn't it mean that this person's identity is not ordinary? The moment he came, he looked at Zhao Zheng's clothes and vehicles, and came to the same judgment as Zhao Anbang, and now ......

Without waiting for him to have any guesses, Zhao Zheng continued: "This is all a trivial matter, I will come to the door to apologize to Lord Fu another day." But tomorrow morning, you have to enter the palace to congratulate, and the official asked, will you explain? ”

Long Si's heart fell into the ice cellar, and when the words of entering the palace and congratulating came into his ears, he knew that he had lost his eyes. Now I only hope that the identity of the other party is not too powerful, and Wu Xinjiedu will come forward to retaliate, so that he can be safe and sound.

"Dare to ask what the honorable driver is?" Long Si immediately changed his smiling face and asked.

Without waiting for Zhao Zheng to answer, Xiao Si, who had been suppressed for a long time, hurriedly said: "My family is Zhao Shaoqing of Honglu Temple!" ”

"A young man of Honglu Temple dares to beat this son?" Zhao Anbang seemed to have heard the story of laughing off his big teeth (in fact, his big teeth did fall out), with a sneer and disdain of yin and yang.

"Honglu Temple...... Shaoqing ...... Zhao Zheng! When Long Si heard this, he was shocked, and his teeth were already rattling. Zhao Anbang, a gentleman, didn't know Zhao Zheng, but his servants in Kaifeng Mansion knew it very well. Today, he was on the side of the street to maintain order, although he did not see it with his own eyes, he heard his colleagues talk about Zhao Zheng's heroic escort.

No wonder one person knocked down these six or seven people, he was really brave, and more importantly, his identity. Although Zhao Anbang is the son of the envoy of the festival, Zhao Zheng is the hero of the escort, I heard that he is deeply respected by the official, can this identity be ordinary? I was blind just now, and I had such an attitude towards him, this ......

Thinking of this, Long Si was terrified. Maybe Zhao Zheng may not be able to fight the Jiedu Embassy, but he only needs to move his fingers to pinch himself to death, how can he not be afraid?

"Quick, catch him, what are you doing in a daze?" Zhao Anbang covered his mouth and spoke with difficulty. He is a gentleman who spends all his days drinking, because he is deeply loved by his grandmother and has a powerful father, so he is used to walking sideways in Bianliang City, and a Honglu Temple Shaoqing does not care about it at all.

When Zhao Kuangyin returned to the city today, he was drinking and having fun in Chunfeng Tower, and he didn't know about the assassination of the official family. At night, I received a message from my father asking him to go back as much as possible, so that he would leave in a hurry. There was a small friction on the way, and I didn't know how to restrain it, especially after seeing Zhao Zheng's jade Buddha, I was even more moved. If you snatch it back and give it to your grandmother, you will definitely be able to please her. But he didn't want to completely anger Zhao Zheng because of this, but he didn't know that he had met a strong opponent, and he was very supportive.

Long Si was different, at this time, he trembled, no matter how Zhao Anbang scolded, but he didn't move, a little funny.

"Are you still going to arrest me?"

"Don't dare?" Ryusi replied in a trembling voice.

"Do you want to ask about the ins and outs?"

"Yes......" Ryusi nodded hurriedly and began to investigate the scene.

The coachman heard that he was an employer and a big official, and he had no scruples, and the bamboo tube poured beans generally came truthfully. Long Si heard it clearly, it is common for the gentlemen to be domineering, and it is reasonable for them to cause trouble in the first place. There are also people on the streets, and some people describe it bluntly, and the facts are very clear.

But at this time, what can a qiē do and how can it be handled? Neither side could be offended by them, and Long Si couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Someone from the Jiedu Embassy must have reported it, and the conflict may continue to expand, and the consequences are really unpredictable. I had no choice but to send someone to report to Wu Tingzuo, the matter had become a big problem, and it could only be handled by Lord Yin.

When Wu Tingzuo received the news, he was shocked, where did he think that a simple brawl incident could be so complicated. The injured person turned out to be the son of Zhao Yanhui, the envoy of Wuxin Jiedu.

Zhao Yanhui is a senior general in the Forbidden Army's Guards Division, and he is also the minister of the dragon who was defeated by Chen Qiao's army, when he led the army to block the army of the king of Qin, who made other festivals on the north side of Bianliang, although he did not directly follow Zhao Kuangyin into the city, but he played an extremely important role with Gao Huaide and others.

It has only been less than a year since the Chenqiao Mutiny, and the general Conglong is in power, and it is when he is in high spirits, his son was beaten, can Zhao Yanhui give up? What happens when it gets into trouble?

If the perpetrator is someone else, it would be fine, but it is Zhao Zheng, who is just a person with small merits on the surface. But as the acting Kaifeng Mansion Yin and the important minister of the Great Song Dynasty, Wu Tingzuo knew some inside information that others did not know.

Zhao Zheng's exploits in the Chenqiao Mutiny were probably no less than those of Zhao Yanhui, and then he went to Luzhou, making great achievements in the Southern Tang Dynasty. In the daytime, he just saved the life of the official family, who is the biggest credit?

At the moment, both are hot figures, the conflict has already arisen, and once it escalates, who can predict the consequences? If it is peacetime, the conflict between the two magnates is too important.

But today is special, it's really big, and there will be trouble. As the acting Kaifeng Mansion Yin, he couldn't hide if he wanted to, and in order to prevent the situation from expanding, he had to come forward in person.

When he walked out of the gate of the mansion, Wu Tingzuo was thinking that maybe he was about to sit at the end of his house. But why can't we start and finish well? No matter how good you have done before, now you ...... It's also a sad house! (To be continued......)
