The so-called urgent and important matters of several people are either things that have been agreed on for a long time, or things that have long been precedent, and now they are turning out to fry cold rice, which makes Zhao Ta very impatient, and he wastes his energy on this endless trivial matter. Although I like to be dictatorial in some things, I don't need to report back every step of the agreed matter, and I just implement the established plan without urging.

"Have the three courts tried it, and there can be unjust judgments among them, and there can be important people who have committed crimes?" Zhao Ta let out a long breath and asked with a sinking face.

"Your Majesty, the ministers and Dali Temple, the Criminal Department and the Imperial History Observatory reviewed the documents, and asked the prisoners one by one, but no one complained, and there was no major case among them!" Zhang Xiaochun said, but when he looked up, the emperor was full of black lines, as if he wanted to behead them all, and he was taken aback.

"This kind of ordinary criminal case, since all levels have been examined, and your ministries have reviewed it collegially, those who should be killed will be killed, those who should be closed will be closed, and those who can be released will be released, so why let me read it again!" Zhao Ta suppressed the fire and said, he also knew that in the past, the emperor had to personally write the imperial approval every autumn, which basically meant to show that the power of life and death was in the hands of the emperor. It's more than going through the situation, and it's pointless at all.

It is impossible for the emperor to retry them one by one, even if those people are wronged, they have already been beaten at this time, and those who shout injustice are also tricks arranged in advance to make the emperor happy. Zhao Ta's father used to like it very much, and every time he committed hundreds of people in front of the Xuande Tower, he would kill or pardon them for a show to show his heroic name and martial arts, which seemed to improve the prestige of the emperor, and reliable this trick to show authority. It's so incompetent. As a result, he became a prisoner and let the Jurchens interrogate.

"Your Majesty. This... The minister does not dare to arbitrarily judge! Zhang Xiaochun bowed his head and said.

"Well, you and others have all had the experience of commanding armies. If you want to kill a pawn, eat a meal, where to stay, and spend a little money, can you mobilize thousands of troops and horses to defeat the enemy? Zhao Ta said with a sigh.

"Your Majesty, the ministers can't!" Most of these people in the palace had led the troops into battle, and several of them looked at each other and replied in unison.

"The same is true for handling political affairs, such as the expansion of the army, the clearing of the river, the imperial examination, and even the autumn decision, which were agreed upon as early as the early spring, and the detailed rules can be grasped and coordinated by yourself. Why do you need to ask for advice! Zhao Tayan said, "Of course, you may also have concerns in your hearts, worried that I suspect you of taking advantage of it or arbitrarily exercising power, but have you ever thought that since I have entrusted you with important tasks, I believe that everyone can live up to my trust, even if you have different intentions, your own courtiers impeachment, and imperial history inspectors, the most bad will be someone to beat the 'Dengwen Drum' in front of Xuanhe Building!" ”

"Shame on you!" Everyone was speechless when they were taught by the emperor. There is no way to refute it.

"I'm not a man of small energy, nor am I a dull king?" Zhao Ta asked again, and everyone nodded yes, "Back then, in the northwest, I handed over all government affairs to Xu Xiang. Military affairs were entrusted to Zhao Ren, internal affairs were handed over to Jianxi, and the matter was decided. So they went their separate ways, and they did what they had to do. The money and food handled are millions, but as long as they are for the country and the people, they will do things loyally. I never intervene in the question, even if there is a mistake to change, it has never been like now, all the big and small things are gathered here in me, and I can't finish reading the recitals sent every day without eating or sleeping, let alone carefully considering and analyzing, I have no time to think about state affairs! ”

"What His Majesty said is true, if His Majesty was entangled in the literature that day, he would not have had time to consider operating Datong, pacifying the remnants of Liao, balancing the Western Xia, and creating today's good situation to save the Great Song Dynasty from peril!" Xu Jingheng turned his face and said to everyone, everyone nodded, think about it, the emperor is actually very hard!

"You have a lot of complaints about me meddling in Dali's internal affairs, thinking that this move is contrary to the policy of 'internal reality and external emptiness' set by Taizu and Taizong; Zhao Tan wants to talk about things today, so that he can get rid of the heavy government affairs and do something that needs to be done.

"Meddling in Dali, you think that I am to plunder the Dali copper mine, and I lose the demeanor of a great country, which is not false, but it is only one of them. Jiaozhi and Tubo have always had ambitions for our Great Song Dynasty, and our main enemy is now the Jurchens in the north and have no time to look south, but this threat has always existed, and if they collude with Dali to commit the Song Dynasty, it will bring great pressure to us to use soldiers against the Jurchens. Through this incident, we have deepened our relationship with it, not only obtained the mine, but also obtained the right to garrison troops, reduced the friction with the barbarians, in fact, it is an additional barrier, and the trade route to the Western Regions has been restored, although we have paid some price, but the advantages still outweigh the disadvantages! ”

"Now after the Great Song Dynasty opened the sea to trade, you have also seen the benefits, the commercial tax has accounted for half of the country's taxes, such a great interest will attract the covetousness of the surrounding countries, will also attract countless pirates, only a strong naval army can ensure the smooth flow of trade routes; And the organization of an ocean-going fleet can not only open up new routes and contact more countries, but also communicate with each other, which is by no means a coincidence..."

"Alas, the emperor is also a painstaking ah, Your Majesty learned that there are several crops in the extreme east that are suitable for growing in arid and barren lands, and the yield is very high, and the introduction of seeds can solve the grain shortage in the Central Plains and the northwest, so as to eliminate the risk of food shortages caused by famine and future population increase, and there are thousands of miles away from the ocean, which is far more difficult than Zhang Qian's trip to the Western Regions!" The purpose of the formation of the ocean expedition has been kept secret, and now that the emperor has decided to say it to eliminate the misunderstanding between the monarch and the minister, Zhao Ren, who is in charge of organizing and implementing it, has said it for the emperor.

"The minister is ignorant, and he doesn't understand the holy will of His Majesty!" Li Gang blushed when he heard this, he just heard that the emperor had summoned a group of skilled craftsmen and people who were skilled in miscellaneous studies to gather in the palace, thinking that the emperor had used his mind on those strange playthings.

"Hehe, Li Xiangyan is serious, I don't mean to blame, it's just that I take off this clothes and I am also an ordinary person with old and young, and I also want to do something I like in my busy time, so I still need to work hard, don't push all the big and small things to me, so that I can be lazy and enjoy the joy of family!" Zhao Ta smiled at everyone.

"Ha Lu, Ha..." Everyone was stunned when they heard the emperor's words, and then laughed, "Your Majesty, it is the incompetence of the ministers and others that makes Your Majesty work hard for the country!" "The emperor is tired of saying good things to everyone, isn't it their sin, all the ministers pleaded in unison, of course, they also know what the emperor thinks, and understand how to improve their working methods.

"You Aiqing have worked hard, thank you!" Zhao Ta saw that his goal had been achieved, but he smiled bitterly in his heart, he just wanted to be lazy, and he had to talk so much about turning such a big corner, otherwise he would be said to be a faint monarch who was wasted in the government, this emperor is really tired!

The monarch and the ministers will solve the misunderstanding full of joy, the emperor gave a seat, everyone relaxed down and said something new in the court, just when the conversation was strong, seeing the joy of the steps hurriedly came in from outside the hall and whispered a few words in the emperor's ear, but saw the emperor's face changed several times, suddenly silent, the face could not see the joy and sorrow, everyone did not dare to ask, stunned to look at the emperor, the hall breathing sound can be heard clearly.

"Zong Han is dead!" Zhao Ta walked to the window, pushed open the window, and a cold wind blew snowflakes into the hall, and he twisted his face and said.

"It's a good thing that the enemy chief died, why don't Your Majesty like it?" Zong Han is the great enemy of the Great Song Dynasty, he attacked Hedong, besieged Taiyuan, led the troops to capture Bianjing and kidnapped the second emperor, plundered the Beijing division, and supported the pseudo-Chu, all from his hands, the Song people hated it to the bone, and now everyone should be happy when they are dead, but the emperor looks sullen.

"He died too early, I hate not to be able to kill the enemy chieftain himself!" Zhao Ta turned around and said hatefully.

'Huh......' Everyone let out a long sigh of relief, it turned out that the emperor was unhappy about this, but they all wondered why Zong Han had a high status in the Jin Kingdom and was in the prime of life, so how could he die well!

…………

After saying that, Yan Zongqi was named Taishi after returning to China, and was secretly ordered by the emperor to investigate the illegality of Taibao Zonghan. He sent people to squat by the door for a few months and didn't find anything about Zong Han, but he accidentally found out about the corruption of Shangshu Zuocheng Gao Qingyi. As a conspirator, Zong Xuan understood very well the truth of pulling out the radish and bringing out the mud, and he knew that the opportunity had come, and immediately reported the matter to the emperor.

Wan Yan immediately ordered a thorough investigation of the matter, but no one knew what the truth was and how much corruption was done, only to see that Gao Qingyi was quickly beheaded, and at the same time, this ordinary corruption case was still widespread, and many court officials and local officials were executed or demoted. People found that these people all have a symbol on them, and they are all the best of the Han people promoted and cultivated by Taibao Zonghan in the past ten years.

Especially Gao Qingyi, he used to be just an inconspicuous Han official in the Khitan surrender, acting as a translator for the Jin army, but he followed the right person, when Zong Han first sent troops to attack the Song Dynasty, Gao Qingyi served as a staff officer for Zong Han to give advice to Zong Han, and sent an envoy to the Song Dynasty, he was his right-hand man, and his status continued to rise with Zong Han's power. After Yan Kang succeeded to the throne, he was also called into the court to serve as Shangshu Zuocheng, and continued to follow Zong Han, which can be said to be his right-hand man and an important think tank.

Of course, Zong Han, the master, will not escape the blame for the conviction of these people, and he must go home to reflect on his mistakes. Zong Han watched his henchmen and favorite generals being killed on trumped-up charges, no matter how stupid he was, he understood the emperor's intentions, he had lost his use value, and his credit was too great, and Dajin couldn't hold him anymore! Zong Han knew where he was going, and just as the cold winter came again, he vomited blood from his mouth and died at the age of fifty-eight...... (To be continued......)
