Chapter 152: Jiang Tai's Death
Putting the brush away, Zhao Zhen slowly turned around, looked at Chen Lin who was bowing his head and asked, "Is the news true?"
"Still investigating. But when Tong Naolang was assassinated today, it was indeed Dazong Zheng who made arrangements to prevent the guards from leaving the palace in time to rescue him."
Chen Lin is very smart, she didn't say yes or no. All he needs to do is tell him everything he knows. How to decide next is still up to the emperor himself.
Su Shi originally didn't expect to bring down Zhao Yunrang through this matter.
Su Shi, who has no evidence at all, just wants to disgust Zhao Yunrang through this matter, give him a headache, and he can't take a move to deal with himself. Besides, the emperors of the past have always been suspicious, especially this kind of major event that can involve the inheritance of the country, it must be better to believe it than not to believe it.
Zhao Zhen, who didn't know what he was thinking, paused for more than a dozen breaths, and then spoke again, "Where is Zhao Zongcheng?"
"Back to Your Majesty, I'm studying in the country." Chen Lin on the side obviously knew what Zhao Zhen meant, so he hurriedly replied.
"You're already in your teens, so it's time to stand alone." seemed to be talking to himself, and then Zhao Zhen's attitude became firm, "Pass the decree and promote Zhao Zongshi to the general of the right guard and the training envoy of the Yuezhou regiment."
The right guard general in front is just a name, and only the Privy Council has the right to transfer troops in the Great Song Dynasty, so the real official position that fell to Zhao Zongshi was the Yuezhou regimental training envoy.
To put it bluntly, Zhao Zongshi was put into the local government, far away from the central center of Bianliang City.
In history, Zhao Zongshi went to Yuezhou seven years later, because of Su Shi's relationship, it was advanced.
The decree was quickly sent to the province of Sanshu, and this time it was quickly adopted. Zhao Zongshi left Beijing within three days.
Zong***, Zhao Yunrang sat on the chair a little depressed.
If it was other wills, with his relationship with Zhao Zhen, he could have gone to intercede. But it's a matter of the crown prince, and no one can intervene.
Just now, Empress Cao also delivered news from the palace, to the effect that the attitude of the official family was very resolute, and she couldn't say anything about this matter.
"Su Shi."
Gritting his teeth, the green tendons on his face were moving, and Zhao Yunrang's mouth involuntarily spit out these two words.
......
Liu Liufu still stayed in Bianliang City and had no intention of leaving, and the officials of Honglu Temple were cautious these days.
With Jiang Tai as an example in front of them, they didn't dare to show weakness to Liu Liufu, but they couldn't really make them tough. Then all that's left is a procrastination.
Fan Zhongyan, Fu Bi, Han Qi and others are contacting all forces and preparing for the Qingli New Deal.
The court can be described as very busy, but Su Shi is very leisurely in comparison.
On weekdays, I either go out to listen to music, or go outside the city to do good deeds and give porridge.
Winter is coming, and more and more homeless people have appeared outside Bianliang City, taking this opportunity, Su Shi has gained a lot of faith points after paying some money.
Early this morning, it snowed heavily again in Bianliang City, and the streets were full of scenes of officials directing the people to clear the snow. In Kaifeng Fuzhong, after more than a month, Jiang Tai's case was finally concluded, and he was sentenced to exile thousands of miles to Jianzhou, Fujian.
Jiang Tai's crime is to rob the people of more than 100 acres of land, which is to compete with the people for profit. But in fact, which official has not done such a thing, the difference is that someone has been impeached and put on the surface.
It seems to be a little wronged, but in fact it is not wronged, who let him offend Su Shi, a person who should not be offended?
Su Shi has always pursued the principle that people don't offend me, and I don't offend people. It doesn't matter if you want to be a licking dog, or a Han girl, as long as you don't provoke Su Shi, he won't bother to deal with you. After all, there are too many such people in the Manchu Dynasty.
But if you provoke it, then I'm sorry, you deserve to be unlucky. Think about Su Shi, that's even Dazongzheng's person who says he will be scared.
For the first time, Yan Wuwu was thrown out of Su Mansion, and few people knew about it. At that time, there were not many people in Su Shi
He took it seriously.
was thrown out of the Su Mansion for the second time, and there were too many people who knew. Especially on that day, there were still many martial arts people who went to Su Mansion to apply for the position of nursing home. Many of them saw this scene, and soon the news spread to the streets and alleys.
However, Zhao Yunrang was angry in his heart, but he couldn't do anything about Su Shi. If it is moved, it is equivalent to confirming the news that has been circulating before, so that I am afraid that the official family will have ideas, and that is where the real death lies.
provoked you, you can't touch me yet, this feeling is so cool. Of course, this is for Sushi.
Early this morning, after Su Shi got up and had breakfast, he rode straight to the south of the city in a carriage, and he wanted to give Jiang Tai a ride, or it could be said that he would send him on his last ride.
As for whether he came forward to leave Jiang Tai's life behind, Su Shi also considered it.
In the end, he decided to come forward in person, without it, it was to create an impression on others, that is, he was young, a person who had revenge and would take revenge.
Naturally, there is something wrong with doing this, and you may be punished in some ways. But if he doesn't do anything, the consequences will be even more serious. If someone thinks that he is a scheming person and has a deep mind, then the officials are suspicious of him, and this is a fatal existence.
The carriage went out of Nanxun Gate without any cover, and many officers and soldiers defending the city saw it clearly. Twenty miles out of the city, the carriage stopped in front of Jiang Tai, who was being detained by two officials.
"What are you going to do?" Originally, he thought that there was a former colleague who wanted to give him a ride, Jiang Tai was still a little moved in his heart, but when the carriage stopped and Su Shi got off the slope in a wheelchair, his face turned pale.
At this time, Su Shi will appear here, as long as his brain is not stupid, he can guess what will happen.
"What? Of course, I'm giving you a ride." The wheelchair slowly moved forward, and Su Shi had a warm smile on his face.
At the age of only fourteen, it is really unimaginable how he could have such a smile on his face. It's just that Jiang Tai didn't think about these things anymore, and his eyes fell on the two officials who were guarding him on the side.
The two officials had already received the silver nuggets thrown by Lou Yang.
Fifty taels of silver for one person, if exchanged, can at least be exchanged for sixty or seventy yuan, for them who only have five hundred yuan a month, this is enough for them to struggle for nearly ten years.
Take people's money and people to eliminate disasters.
The two officials stood there very obediently, waiting for Lou Yang to come to their necks for a moment, and fainted very simply.
The officials all fainted, and Jiang Tai had no reinforcements to speak of. When he looked at Su Shi, he fell to his knees with a plop.
It's hard to imagine how he could do this kneeling action.
This is the literati of the Great Song Dynasty, opening their mouths for the world and closing their mouths for the country. When faced with death, the only thing left is to be for yourself.
"That's on your knees?" Su Shi looked at Jiang Tai and shook his head, suddenly feeling no interested, so he clapped his hands, and the clay figure Zhang jumped out of the carriage.
"Let's do something, see what you have on you, just go get it."
After throwing down such a word, Su Shi didn't even look back, and went straight to the carriage.
Su Shi, who turned around, said thank you softly. If it weren't for Jiang Tai, there would be no reason for him to make the guards around him so strong.
Unfortunately, it is impossible to hear this thank you Kang Tae.
The clay figure Zhang stepped forward with a smile, and a sharp boning knife had already appeared in his hand.
In his eyes, the most valuable thing in the body of the dying person is the face, and he can carefully peel off that human face completely and make it into the most delicate human skin mask.
It's just a pity that Jiang Tai's identity is unusual, if he has no face after death, I'm afraid it will arouse suspicion among others. No way, you can't ask for a human face, but it doesn't matter, he can also cut off the other party's flesh piece by piece, the young master said, to alert Jiang Tai's death to others, of course he knows how to do it.
Kang Tae died.
Died on the official road south of the city.
I heard that Jiang Tai after he died, in addition to his face being complete, he couldn't find a complete place on his whole body.
But anyone who hears this news will involuntarily jump out of their minds with the word "Ling Chi".
This is the means of sumoshi.
At this moment, I don't know how many people have an idea in their hearts, that is, try to stay away from this person in the future, and don't offend him. Otherwise, it will not be good to die.
......
Imperial Palace, Zichen Palace.
Chen Lin was standing in front of Zhao Zhen, reporting on Jiang Tai's affairs.
"Your Majesty, we have learned from the mouths of those two officials that everything was done by Naorou."
After the two officials took the money, they returned to Kaifeng Mansion and surrendered. They didn't confess Su Shi very righteously, maybe they also knew that if they really dared to say it, I was afraid that Su Shi would not spare them. I still remember when I woke up, I saw Jiang Tai's miserable image, and I vomited them directly.
Faced with the methods of the secret spy department, the two did not survive and confessed Su Shi. Fortunately, this organization is originally exclusive to the official family, and the confessions they say will not be easily circulated.
"Too impulsive." After hearing this, Zhao Zhen just said this, and did not want to delve into Su Shi's meaning.
Jiang Tai's actions, Zhao Zhen also did not tolerate it, if it weren't for the other party's identity as a scholar, he would have directly ordered the beheading.
Now it's okay, Su Shi did what he didn't do well, which was a breath for Zhao Zhen.
After all, people are still dead, and there is a situation in terms of face. Zhao Zhen looked at Zhang Mao, the chamberlain on the side, and asked, "You say, how do you punish Tong Zhilang?"
"This... The official family, according to the slave maid, Tong Zhilang is the richest, so it is better to be fined for half a year, anyway, he does not live with this little money. Also, you can fine him 50,000 yuan to use it for his own money."
As soon as he heard that he was going to be fined 50,000 yuan, Zhao Zhen was a little embarrassed and said, "Will this be more?"
"Probably not much." Zhang Mao had an embarrassed smile on his face. Long ago, Su Shi handed over a message, saying that he was willing to pay money to eliminate the disaster, so he made such a suggestion.
"That's right, the business he does is the most profitable, not much for 50,000 yuan. Then go and preach the decree." Zhao Zhen thought that Su Shi would go to the outside of the city to give porridge if he was fine, and it would be thousands of guan at a time, presumably these 50,000 guan should be nothing to him.
Jiang Tai died, and as the most suspected murderer, he was only fined money. As soon as the news came out, all the ministers knew the weight of Su Shi in the hearts of the officials. The image of Naolang being difficult to mess with is even more ingrained in the hearts of many people.
