Zhao Yi walked out, he had no fear.

Twenty years of brothers, who doesn't understand whom? It's just that each has its own things to remember, and it is just not to be broken.

Zhao Chi opened his mouth and said, "You talk well, it's the same as when you were a child, and you just leave if it doesn't make sense?!" ”

"What is the Holy Lord going to do?" Zhao Yi asked Zhao Chi, "Is it to handle it impartially, or to protect him?" You are the emperor, you have the final say, but I refute him, but I will not oppose you. ”

This is a homeopathic statement, I have an enmity with the crown prince, but I have no opinion on your emperor.

This is on the surface, but what do you think inside? Unimportant!

"You're children!" Zhao Chi took a sip of tea and instructed Ji Chun, "Let Tan Ren go and invite the prince." ”

Ji Chun should be.

"Sit down, and when he comes, you ask him. You uncle, can't you say something well? Why are you also an elder? Zhao Chi said.

Zhao Yi threw up his sleeves and sat back, crossed his legs and said casually: "He treats me as an uncle, and I have a nephew." If he wants to kill me, I won't hold my head and wait for his knife to fall. ”

"You!" Zhao Chi sighed and stopped talking.

The atmosphere in the Golden Palace was unprecedentedly depressing. In the past, even if it was quiet and suppressed fear, it would not be to this extent today.

King Qi and King Ning openly turned against the crown prince.

That's a big deal.

No one dared to ask. But Wei Xunchang, Fang Xu and Zhuo Qingzhong understood in their hearts, the three of them resigned to change their clothes and stood on the side of the thatched house, Wei Xunchang asked Zhuo Qingzhong: "Are you sure that the booklet dropped by King Qi is written on it...... Those counts? ”

"Sure!" Zhuo Qingzhong was very sensitive to these, because he also had his own current accounts, "This should be the number recorded by Lord Tang." ”

This matter turned around in Wei Xunchang's heart and came to the answer: "That's what Pan Dexiang sacrificed to save his life." ”

"Tang Taiwen raised a dog that turned his back!" Zhuo Qingzhong said angrily.

"That's it, let's talk about it later. The king of Qi and the crown prince tore their faces, aren't we in danger? Fang Xu was very anxious, "Elder Ge, we can't sit still, otherwise we will be the next Tang Taiwen." This Song Shi'an is really not simple, he will take his life when he engages anyone. ”

The horizontal ones are afraid of dying.

"Tang Taiwen can say, how did Jin Bing find him." Wei Xunchang asked Zhuo Qingzhong.

There are indeed Jin Bing, but as for why Jin Bing disappeared out of thin air, Tang Taiwen didn't know, and they didn't know it even more.

"I stopped his sedan chair on the road, and I heard that he had a grudge against Song Shi'an, so he handed over his clothes and letters." Zhuo Qingzhong said, "I have also seen that Jin Bing, and there will definitely be nothing wrong with the accent and appearance of his speech." Now it is necessary to judge whether the thing is true or false! ”

"It shouldn't be true, Song Shi'an is such a shrewd person, even if he wants to be a traitor, it is impossible to leave so much evidence." Wei Xunchang said, "However, there must be something hidden here, otherwise, Prince Qi will not threaten you." ”

Zhuo Qingzhong and Fang Xu both understood, Fang Xu said: "It seems that if we want to fight back against King Qi, we still have to start with Song Shi'an." At present, it is still necessary to investigate this matter to the end. ”

"I'm sure I'll find out."

King Qi cares about Song Shi'an, everyone knows. And there is nothing to check on King Qi, so Song Shi'an is still a breakthrough.

"I have an idea." Wei Xunchang asked the two people, "Assuming, Song Shi'an is not a traitor, then where did that letter and clothes come from?" The things that were confirmed were the clothes he wore back then and the handwriting of the letter. ”

Zhuo Qingzhong said: "That's what the people around him did, take revenge on him!" ”

"Who could it be?"

"Who can imitate his handwriting enough to be true?" Fang Xu asked.

Zhuo Qingzhong thought of a person: "The entourage who has been following Song Shi'an, didn't they all say that he was Song Shi'an's shadow at that time?" What's it called...... Song and Yuan periods. ”

"Remember, the child of unknown origin but very smart that Song Yanxu took in. At that time, he also went on an envoy with Song Shi'an. ”

"What is the origin of that child, did Song Yanxu mention it to you back then?" Fang Xu said.

In the past, Song Yanxu was also a Wei party, although he was not as close as them, but everyone would still discuss things.

"I don't remember, I guess I didn't mention it." Wei Xunchang said, "No matter what, let someone test him first, if it's him, then things will be easy to do." ”

The three of them discussed, and saw a small chamberlain standing under the verandah coughing to remind them.

"Go back first, you can't keep silent later, Your Highness is afraid that you will have to touch it today." Wei Xunchang said slightly, "It still depends on the meaning of the saint." ”

Protect the prince or not.

"Speaking of which, what does the Holy One mean?" Zhuo Qingzhong couldn't understand it, and he never guessed what Zhao Chi meant.

Wei Xunchang said: "The saint has always been unpredictable, when will you and I guess when we are the prince?" After a pause, he suppressed his voice, "Perhaps, the saint wants a bowl of water!" ”

Zhuo Qingzhong and Fang Xu looked at each other, it was obvious that this kind of water was uneven, and the most important thing was that Zhao Chi was a human being...... It's not a bad idea.

Everyone knows the details.

That's why they guessed what Zhao Chi meant.

"It doesn't matter what the Holy One means, we just need to follow." After Wei Xunchang finished speaking, the three of them entered the Golden Palace, and Zhao Tao also happened to come in from the main entrance.

Everyone to everyone.

"Father!" Zhao Tao saluted, glanced at Zhao Yi again, glanced at his arm, and there was undisguised sarcasm in his eyes.

Zhao Chi asked him: "The king of Qi said that you sent troops to besiege and kill him in Henan, can you admit it?" ”

"Me?" Zhao Tao pointed at himself and looked at Zhao Yi, "King Qi thinks I sent troops to kill you?" ”

Zhao Yi didn't come to the void at all: "If you are a man, you will admit it." ”

"I didn't, why admit it." Zhao Tao said, "Besides, aren't you guilty of criminal name, you want to say that I will transfer troops to kill you, and you will show the evidence!" ”

Zhao Yi turned his head and asked Zhao Chi: "Let's say okay first, if I show evidence, how will you punish you?" ”

Zhao Chi asked him rhetorically: "What do you think?" ”

"I think?" Zhao Yi stared at Zhao Tao, changed his legs, leaned on the back of the chair, "Kill!" ”

His tone was nonchalant, but there was no sarcasm at all.

No one thinks that King Qi is making a gesture to scare people, he is very serious.

Zhao Chi didn't have any expression, Wei Xunchang and a few people came out, Wei Xunchang said: "Lord, the prince won't do this kind of thing, even if he does, you ...... You can't say anything like killing the prince, can you? ”

Zhao Yi didn't talk nonsense with them: "Yan Feng, bring me the evidence I prepared for the prince!" ”

Yan Feng came in from outside, carrying a "briefcase" like Song Ning, a basket made of bamboo strips, which Song Ning asked them to use, saying that there was a style, but she didn't use it herself.

The wind was originally carried on the wrist, and he felt inexplicably strange, so he carried it in his hand.

It is indeed better to use than a cloth bag, and it is not afraid of getting dirty when it is placed on the ground.

He placed the bamboo basket at Zhao Yi's feet, and Zhao Yi glanced at the basket and glanced at Song Ning with disgust.

"There are seven people here." Zhao Yi motioned for Ji Chun to come down and fetch it, Ji Chun came down and took it and gave it to Zhao Chi, Zhao Yi continued, "These seven people are the ones who pretended to be assassins that night and were actually soldiers. Killed on the spot, we dragged the bodies and traced the origins of the seven people. ”

"The Ministry of War and the Governor's Office of the Five Armies do not have a record of these seven people, nor do they have a record of receiving military salaries." Zhao Yi said, "I'm still glad, maybe I've thought too much, how can the prince call so many soldiers and horses." ”

"But six hundred people are real, and he has no place to raise soldiers. So, he thought of a possibility. Zhao Yi looked at Yan Feng.

Yan Feng replied: "The re-investigation is the name used by the personnel of the army establishment. ”

The region is not investigated by the whole country, and only a few troops that Zhao Tao may interfere with are investigated.

"So, I found these seven pieces of information in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies." Wind Duct.

After Yan Feng finished speaking, some civilian officials were confused, but anyone who has handled the military household registration or even seen the payment of military salaries will understand what is going on. It is not uncommon for the army to have empty salaries, no matter how much it exists. One hundred people were reported to be on active duty, but fifty were fictitious, and the salaries of these fifty men were accordingly.

The other is the one that is checked by the wind, which is rare, and generally occurs in the hands of the royal family, ambitious generals, and some capable and powerful people, who use the money of the court to support their own soldiers.

The specific operation is to replace Zhang San's name with Li Si, and the household registration has also been modified.

What does this "accident" mean? Raise an army to rebel and raise bandits as soldiers......

A group of people who don't sin to their families and take their lives to earn money.

However, the army has a register of the army, and there are several yamen at every level, so the name changed does not exist here, and it may be stored elsewhere, so the name used can also be checked.

"The names of these seven people do not match the household registration, so the subordinates dared to check it again, and found suspected false information, and there were 510 people in the camp in Xishan alone."

"There are nearly a thousand people in Fengyang Dusi."

"Two hundred people from the Nanyang Guard."

After a pause, he said: "That's all the subordinates can find." ”

Needles could be heard falling on the Golden Palace, and someone from the military department whispered: "...... Xishan now has less than 2,000 soldiers, right? ”

"One thousand nine hundred and eighty-one." A military commander said.

There are less than 2,000 people, but there are 500 people who have military salaries and have the establishment of active soldiers, but they do not know whether they are people or people who are unknown.

How scary is that?

Xishan, protect the capital.

Who knows if these people will enter the capital inside and out?

Zhao Chi's face changed a few times, and his gaze turned to the military general on one side: "Yuan En? ”

The name of the Chinese military governor of the Five Military Governor's Mansion is Yuan En, and he was with Feng Li in Pingliang for half of the year.

Yuan En came out of the ranks, hugged his fists and replied: "Weichen doesn't know about this matter, and Weichen will thoroughly investigate and reply to the saint after he goes back." ”

"Who's in charge?" Zhao Chi asked him.

Yuan En lowered his eyes and replied: "Hou Shizi of Huainan! ”

Who is the Hou Shizi of Huainan? Song Ning only heard about it, and had no contact. In her opinion, there is a gap between the king, the prince and the marquis, and there is a gap between the civil officials, and only Pu Hansheng has a good relationship with her before, but now, Pu Hansheng is also concentrating on reading and revitalizing the lintel and does not move around with her.

Thinking about it a little deeper, Yin Zhi, the commander of the Royal Forest Army, is also one.

She was thinking wildly, and someone in her ear had already explained to her: "The crown princess is from the Huainan Hou Mansion." ”

Song Ning gratefully glanced at the official who explained to her, she didn't know the name of the other party, but the other party was the official who walked around with Song Yanxu.

Zhao Yi is amazing, he dug such a big pit in just a few days?

Or did he dig it up a long time ago, but he didn't bother to say it before?
