As soon as Zhao Gou heard that it was the emperor, he was immediately embarrassed......

He then presented the Emperor's handwritten letter, "The Emperor said, don't let the slaves and maids present this letter to you in the court, and let you read it in the court." ”

Kang Lu took the letter and handed it to Zhao Gou, Zhao Gou opened the letter and saw that his old face was flushed, which ...... Wouldn't reading this a slap in the face to yourself and your courtiers?

Don't read it, it's unfilial!

Before face and filial piety, Zhao Gou chose the latter.

"Emperor Taishang told the emperor and the courtiers that there is a female Shen Wanshu who led the Central Plains soldiers to fight bloodily, captured nearly 10,000 Jin people, and raised the prestige of the Great Song Dynasty, which is not a shallow contribution. You and the others rely on me and Zong Ze, Lu Haowen, Han Shizhong, Yue Fei and other generals to sit in the old capital, so that they can take a breather in Lin'an. Your Majesty does not know that it is difficult to find talents, and you and other courtiers do not want to persuade Your Majesty to give preferential treatment to those who fight for the country, but instead persuade Your Majesty to make peace with the Jin people, cede the land and pay compensation, and intend to depose the people who have contributed to the society, which is a shame! ”

The more Zhao Gou read down, the more cold sweat flowed.

The courtiers saw that His Majesty the Emperor was so unceremonious, and their faces were gloomy.

Qin Hui's face was about to swell into purple.

The more Lu Yihao listened to the content of the letter, the happier he became, and secretly said that the emperor scolded him well!

"I think that the emperor does not know what the situation of the battle on the front line is, and hastily wrote the next edict, so the special instructions are as follows: The edict will be withdrawn immediately, and those who have made meritorious contributions in this war will be rewarded! Don't chill the ministers of the society. As for whether to fight or make peace with the Jin people, it is up to me and the Kaifeng ministers to decide! In particular, I would like to warn those who grovel to the Jin State that if they bewitch Your Majesty to surrender to the Jin Kingdom again, there will be a place for you in the prison of the Criminal Department. ”

After reading the last sentence of the letter, Zhao Gou breathed a long sigh of relief, sat back in his chair, and drank a sip of herbal tea on the desk.

"The Emperor's intentions are already very clear, what do you think should be done? Although I am the Son of Heaven, I am also the Son of Man, and I cannot turn a blind eye to the instructions of the Emperor. ”

Qin Hui's eyes purred, and he bowed down and said, "Official, the minister thinks that this letter was definitely not written by the Emperor Taishang, this Great Song Dynasty is your world, and you can't let Shen Wanshu's generation coerce the Emperor and suppress you." ”

Zhao Gou also had some doubts that the Emperor Taishang was bewitched or coerced by Shen Wanshu and others, so that after he was released, he always held different opinions with him.

Lu Yihao snorted coldly, "Then whether Shen Wanshu coerced the Emperor Taishang, ask about the selection or the command of the palace in front of the palace, so that Liu Guangshi will know." ”

Zhao Gou immediately focused his attention on Zeng Xuan, "Do you think that the Emperor Taishang was bewitched or coerced by them?" ”

Zeng Xue hesitated slightly, and then spoke, "The slave didn't see the meaning of coercion, but this demagogy was a little uncertain. ”

Zhao Gou asked curiously, "Are you being bewitched?" ”

"Official, the Emperor Taishang once mistakenly called Shen Wanshu 'Huang'er', and he trusted her especially between words, so the slave maid was a little uncertain."

Zhao Gou's heart sank, Huang'er? Don't...... Then Shen Wanshu bewitched her father and accepted her as a righteous daughter? If this is the case, it will be easy for her father to defend her, but in this way, things are not easy to handle.

Qin Hui glanced at Wang Boyan and Huang Qianshan, and Huang Qianshan immediately said, "Official, the minister thinks that Shen Wanshu has already bewitched the emperor, if you don't stop it in time, the consequences will be unimaginable." ”

Zhao Gou frowned, "What do you mean ......?"

"Official, now only by arresting Shen Wanshu, Lu Haowen, Zong Ze and others and handing them over to Dali Temple for trial can we find out the truth. Otherwise, once they are rewarded according to the emperor's wishes, they will make waves and disturb our dynasty. ”

Zhao Gou hesitated in his heart, if he really wanted to arrest Shen Wanshu and others, it would inevitably make his father dissatisfied with him, but if he didn't do this, how could he calm the dynasty and obey the people's will?

Seeing Zhao Gou's hesitation, Qin Hui immediately said, "Official, the minister thinks this matter is feasible. Now that the Emperor Taishang is in Kaifeng, if he doesn't take the opportunity to get rid of the hidden dangers as soon as possible, I'm afraid that they will still use the Emperor Taishang to expand their own power, and even if the imperial court wants to control them, it will be beyond their reach. ”

Zhao Gou was still hesitant, "But doing so will make my father dissatisfied......"

Qin Hui continued to fan the flames, "Official, loyalty and filial piety cannot be achieved since ancient times, then Shen Wanshu and others have already bewitched the emperor, if they are not eradicated in time, the society will be ruined, this is disloyal to the world of the Great Song Dynasty, and disloyal to the emperors of the Great Song Dynasty." Your Majesty should think twice before acting. ”

Lu Yihao saw that Qin Hui, Huang Qianshan and others were openly bewitching His Majesty and the Emperor Taishang, so he hurriedly said, "Since the Emperor's instructions have been issued, the ministers think that the officials should follow the Emperor's wishes, and reward the soldiers who have contributed to the society." As for the matter of negotiating peace with the Jin State, the Emperor Taishang has already instructed him and the Kaifeng ministers to decide, so we should not interfere more. ”

Qin Hui saw that his old opponent had come to dismantle his platform again, and said angrily, "Could it be that Xianggong Lu has a secret relationship with that Shen Wanshu?" Why do you always look at him above the court? ”

Lu Yihao sneered, "Although the old man has not met her, he admires her style of doing things very much, as for what you said about opening her eyes, it is really nonsense!" The old man thought that since he had won a big victory, he should reward the three armies.

After Zhao Gou listened, he couldn't make up his mind, so he asked Qin Hui, "Qin Qing, what do you think?" ”

Qin Hui had already had a case in mind, and immediately said, "Official, the minister thinks that Shen Wanshu is bewitching the emperor." Now that the Emperor Taishang is in Kaifeng, if he doesn't take the opportunity to get rid of the hidden dangers as soon as possible, there will be endless troubles in the future. ”

Zhao Gou was still a little hesitant, "But doing so will make my father dissatisfied......"

Qin Hui immediately retorted, "Official, since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety cannot be both, then Shen Wanshu and others have already bewitched the emperor, if they are not eradicated in time, the society will be ruined, this is disloyalty to the Great Song Dynasty, and disloyalty to the emperors of the Great Song Dynasty." Your Majesty should think twice before acting. ”

Qin Hui and Lu Yihao began to fight with each other, and the courtiers also followed suit, turning the solemn and majestic court meeting into a vegetable market.

Zhao Gou sighed, "That's it, how to deal with this matter, put it aside for the time being, and make Kang Lu the patrol envoy of the two capitals!" Immediately set off for Kaifeng, and after figuring out Shen Wanshu's intentions and thoughts, he made a decision. ”

Kang Lu was entrusted with a heavy task, and he immediately became happy, "The slave will live up to the expectations of the official family, and the ins and outs of the whole thing will be revealed." ”

【Kaifeng】

As soon as Zhao Yingluo returned to Kaifeng and dealt with Yan Zonghan's affairs, she devoted herself to the agricultural affairs of the winter wheat harvest.

This year's rain is plentiful, the wheat is growing well, and if there is no excessive rain during the harvest, a good harvest is a foregone conclusion.
