Chapter 108: The Secret Letter of the Year

It can be seen that Li Gang has accepted his fate, so Zhao Di did not continue to embarrass him, after all, Zhao Di still needs him to maintain the Qiongxing Star Domain for himself after all, except for Li Gang Zhao Di, there is no second choice in his hands to let him control the Qiongxing Star Domain.

If it weren't for Li Gang, Li Gang would already be a dead man in this case. Zhao Di is not a person who can be bullied, knowing that Li Gang wants to kill himself, Zhao Di would have already taken action if he replaced the previous one.

However, now is not the past, Zhao Di in the previous life did not have any scruples in the shadows, and naturally he could do whatever he wanted, and now Zhao Di needs to be above board, so he needs to weigh the gains and losses.

Li Gang, who wants to control the Qiongxing Star Domain, is the only person who can be recognized by the imperial court, so Zhao Di will spend so much energy on him, even if the other party joins forces with outsiders to attack him, he has to swallow this breath to envelop the other party.

Li Gang lost the line of Tong Shopkeeper, and he completely lost the capital to compete with Zhao Di, and now he can only let Zhao Di handle it.

Although Zhao Di wants to use Li Gang, he can't let him go so easily, after all, the other party can kill him, if this can be easily let go, then the cost of the other party's mistakes is too low, and if there is a recurrence at the critical moment, it will be really dangerous.

However, Zhao Di hadn't thought about how to punish the other party, and cleverly threw the problem directly to Li Gang himself.

Don't look at Zhao Di, he didn't speak sharply at this time, and he didn't even change the smile on his face, but Li Gang was cold sweat oozing from the corner of his forehead.

Li Gang also understands that if he can't give Zhao Di a satisfactory explanation, I'm afraid there will really be no chance in the future. In Li Gang's eyes, Zhao Di is not a good stubble, but he hurt Zhao Di miserably this time, and actually made him sell himself into slavery, and he is simply looking for death.

Li Gang bowed his head and was silent for a long time before he spoke: "King Di, the lower official has something for you, I believe that the prince should be a little more at ease with the lower official after seeing this thing." ”

"Oh?" Zhao Di saw that Li Gang's expression was so sure, and he was slightly curious in his heart, and nodded: "That king wants to see and know, what is it that makes Master Li so confident." ”

Li Gang arched his hand and said, "Wait a minute, the prince." Turned around and went to the cubicle in the study, there was a sound of pricking in the cubicle, as if it was opening some mechanism, and then came out after a while, holding a letter in his hand and presenting it to Zhao Di with both hands, and said respectfully: "Please take a look!"

Zhao Di casually took the letter and opened it to take a closer look at the contents, and his face slowly became solemn.

To be honest, he didn't expect Li Gang to give him such a letter. The letter was written by Li Gang to his father Zhao He, and the whole text was to advise his father to prepare early, beware of Zhao Di and the ministers of the court to seize the heir, and even put forward many precautions for his father.

It stands to reason that with the status of Zhao Di's father back then, Zhao Di had no hope of winning the heir, but Zhao Di succeeded, which actually involved many political issues in the Great Song Dynasty, the most critical of which was the sharp contradiction between the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs.

Zhao Di's grandfather made a mistake in his later years, resulting in the defeat of a national war between the Great Song Dynasty and the Great Qin, which greatly injured the vitality of the Great Song Dynasty, and at the same time, Zhao Di's grandfather was also ill because of the angry attack on the heart of the war, and he died directly after a few years.

It was the procrastination of the old man who could not afford to fall ill for a few years that caused the contradictions between the civil and military ministers of the Great Song Dynasty to sharpen day by day.

Wenchen accused the military generals of being incompetent, and at the same time, the military generals in the DPRK and China withered, and Wenchen stabilized the military generals, so he began to try to change the hardline national policy, and constantly sent people to lobby the countries, giving the Great Song Dynasty a chance to breathe.

The military generals were newly defeated, and the Wenchen made meritorious contributions, which also further boosted the arrogance and ambition of the Wenchen, and there were indeed a few outstanding and eloquent people among the Wenchen of the Great Song Dynasty back then, otherwise it would not be possible to gain the recognition of the surrounding countries so easily.

That is, these extraordinary people joined forces to forcibly reverse the national policy formulated by Grandpa Zhao Di back then, and simply changed an enterprising Great Song Dynasty into a Great Song Dynasty who was willing to survive.

In the past ten years, the Great Song Dynasty has indeed become prosperous under the governance of a group of scholars, but under the deliberate suppression of several neighboring countries, those civil ministers of the Great Song Dynasty have desperately suppressed the generals, so that the generals of the Great Song Dynasty have not been able to come forward.

At that time, Li Gang, as a strategist of Zhao He's party, naturally saw Wenchen's intentions, and had been silently paying attention, at that time he did not have the heart to rebel, so he wrote this secret letter to Zhao He, hoping that Zhao He could pay attention to the contradiction between Wenchen and the generals and prepare early.

At that time, Zhao Di stood on the side of Wenchen and won the support of Wenchen, which was also the target that Li Gang highlighted and needed to be guarded against.

It's a pity that Zhao He needed to take care of his seriously ill father back then, and at the same time he was thinking about the method of strengthening the army, and he didn't know what he thought, so he didn't pay attention to Li Gang's secret letter at all, so that in the end, Zhao Di and them really turned over.

Zhao Di looked at the content of the long letter in his hand, although the various countermeasures on it were not outstanding, but if his cheap father could really implement this, with his power and status at that time, Zhao Di and they really had no hope.

But these are all things in the past, and Li Gang took out this old letter at this time, which can be regarded as a handle for himself and put it in Zhao Di's hands.

After Zhao Di carefully read the letter, he was still a little dissatisfied, after all, it was just an old letter, which was not Li Gang's lifeblood, so he took the letter and trembled and said, "This is the explanation that Lord Li gave to this king?"

"The prince is angry!" Li Gang arched his hand and said: "This letter is regarded as a petition for the lower officials, although the letter has little effect, but it is definitely a stain on the lower officials, the reason why the lower officials were willing to be the vanguard lackeys of the puppet emperor back then, in fact, was also forced to be helpless, if the puppet emperor found this letter in advance, then the lower officials would definitely die, so they could only ...... in desperation." This is to explain to Zhao Di the real reason why he took refuge in Zhao Di back then, if he didn't go all out to take the lead in toppling the prince, then once Zhao Di's people got this letter first, then he Li Gang would probably have died a long time ago.

Li Gang continued: "This letter to the prince, the main purpose of the lower officials is to let the prince sort out the real descendants of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince through this letter, the prince is about to go to Beijing, and many of the people mentioned in this letter have survived, and maybe it will be of unexpected help to the prince in his next trip to Beijing." ”
