Chapter 16: The Aftermath Shakes the Outside of the Opposition (2)
It's just that at this time, a glimmer of hope ignited in his heart, and he pinned his hope on one person, that is, the extremely mysterious ghost-faced Yama. It's a pity that he didn't know that when he betrayed the Great Song Dynasty military situation to Yelu Xian, the commander of the Liao army, he was already a victim, because of the defeat, it was impossible for Zhao Guangyi not to be held responsible, and there were always people who wanted to become victims.
"It's all because of Wang Yu and Liu Wenyu, two traitorous ministers!" Wang Zhong pointed at Wang Yu and Liu Wenyu and said sharply.
"You······ Blood spews out!" Wang Yu was suddenly in a big mess, and as for Liu Wenyu, he collapsed directly to the ground.
When Zhao Guangyi saw this, he knew that what Wang Zhong said was true, and he said at the moment: "Say, I want to know how these two dog thieves defeated my army on the Western Road, and how can there be dog guts to frame Zhongliang!"
With tears in his eyes, Wang Zhong told him how Yang Ye suggested dealing with the Liao army, how he was opposed by Wang Yu and Liu Wenyu, and how he was finally forced to send troops.
Zhao Guangyi was furious when he heard this, he looked at Pan Mei again at this time, and said: "In this way, when General Yang arrives in Chenjia Valley, there should be ambush soldiers to fight, as the commander, the general order is regarded as child's play, and the order is changed overnight, Pan Mei, are you guilty?"
"Weichen is guilty!" Pan Mei also regretted it at this time, there was a look of guilt in his eyes, this was for Yang Ye.
"Say, you didn't set up an ambush in Chenjiagu at that time, where did you go?" Zhao Guangyi said sharply.
Pan Mei said: "At the suggestion of Wang Jianjun······ Under the coercion, Weichen led the army to the southwest along the Jiaohe River, and when he got the news that General Yang was besieged in Chenjiagu, he also led the army back in time to support, but unfortunately it was too late!"
Zhao Guangyi looked at Wang Yu and said, "I'll just say, General Yang has been on the battlefield for a long time, and the Liao army is afraid of him like a tiger, how can he be greedy for merit? How can he be defeated and captured? It turns out that everything is you, a thief, who is making trouble." ”
"Someone, push this thief out of the noon gate and kill him!" Zhao Guangyi pointed at Wang Yudao.
But at this time, several ministers stood up and said that although Wang Yu's crime was unforgivable, Pan Mei, as the boss, did not make a decision immediately, and it was also guilty of being bewitched by Wang Yu, and Pan Mei had to bear the capital crime.
Wang Yu knew that these ministers who dared to speak at this juncture must have something to do with that person, but he knew that his fate was still in Zhao Guangyi's hands.
Zhao Guangyi frowned slightly, just because of his words, it can be seen that he was really angry, but when he first set out on the expedition, this Wang Yu was his hand-picked prison army, no matter what, if he killed Wang Yu, he would be slapping himself. He took a deep breath and said: "Wang Yu can be exempted from the death penalty, but the living crime cannot be escaped, remove all official positions and be exiled to Jinzhou, Liu Wenyu is dismissed from office and exiled to Dengzhou." Tian Chongjin, Pan Mei, Cao Bin, and Mi Xinguan were demoted by three levels, and Yang Ye's eldest son served as the deputy history of Chongyi as the worship officer, and Yang Yanzhao was the history of defense, and Yang Ye was posthumously presented as a lieutenant and an envoy of the Datong Army, and Yang Yanyu's official position remained unchanged, and he was given 1,000 stones of grain and 1,000 horses of cloth in Tianbo Mansion. ”
At this moment, the ministers of civil and military affairs all shouted: "Your Majesty Shengming!"
Zhao Guangyi was stunned, and continued: "The two owners of Pear Blossom Villa, Shen and Su, were originally the chief and deputy commanders of the Dragon Forbidden Army, but they were people from the imperial court, and they had to be investigated for the tragedy of Pear Blossom Villa.
Although Wang Zhong is a straight man, he is also a person who has been in the rivers and lakes for a long time, and Zhao Guangyi's words can be described as meaningful. At that moment, he said: "The saint doesn't need to ask much, it was the Yama Hall that destroyed the Pear Flower Villa, but it has a lot to do with the traitor Wang Yu, as for Wang, it is the first acquaintance with the two owners." ”
Zhao Guangyi's eyes flashed, and he said: "Yama Palace, what kind of place is this? It sounds quite domineering, I am the emperor of the world, but he is the king of the underworld." ”
Kou Zhun said: "This Yama Hall is a mysterious Jianghu organization that has only appeared in the past two years, and in the past two years, it has destroyed many Jianghu sects, robbed a lot of official silver, and done countless evils, and at present, Ye Qianhua, the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance, is also investigating them, but there is no result!"
Zhao Guangyi snorted coldly and said, "How can such an evil organization be tolerated in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, and I ordered Kaifeng Mansion to also investigate this matter." ”
Kou Zhun said: "These people are all from the rivers and lakes, and Wei Chen thinks that it is better to let the people on the rivers and lakes deal with this matter, after all, they know the way of the rivers and lakes." ”
"Okay, pass on my will, order the current martial arts alliance leader to investigate the Yama Palace, if necessary, the government can send troops to support!"
"Wechen commanded!" Kou Zhun replied.
Wang Zhong knew that he couldn't kill Wang Yu today no matter what, but since the imperial court had already issued an order to investigate the Yama Palace, this was good news, because only by destroying the Yama Palace could he truly avenge the Pear Flower Villa. At that moment, he sighed, and walked towards the outside of the main hall with the Danshu iron coupon in his hand.
"Stay strong!" Kou Zhun hurriedly shouted.
"What does this lord have to teach you?" Wang Zhong has always had a temper, and today he is extremely uncomfortable in his heart, and as soon as he speaks, he is angry.
Kou Zhun didn't care, and said, "The strong man has a big name?"
"Contemptible Wang Zhong!"
Kou Zhun said: "It turned out to be Wang Zhuangshi, the Danshu iron coupon in your hand is a royal thing, and now the Pear Blossom Villa is gone, it is not suitable to live outside, it is better to leave it!"
Wang Zhong said lightly: "It turned out that it was for this matter, or not, the two owners of Shen and Su are noble people, and they were dismissed from office at the beginning, but now the court is doing things like this, and the two of them don't want to see this Laoshi Zidan book iron coupon, your things, you can take them back yourself." ”
Wang Zhong threw the Danshu iron coupon back at this time, Kou Zhun and the others were all face changes drastically, fortunately the ministers of civil and military affairs gathered in the main hall, and one of the generals flashed out and caught the Danshu iron coupon.
At this time, a minister shouted: "Presumptuous, this is a royal thing, if it is broken, it will destroy the nine clans!"
Wang Zhong laughed and said, "Wang Zhong is alone now, and he is still afraid of being punished by the Nine Clans? If you want to kill Wang, hurry up, otherwise Wang will leave!"
At this time, Wang Zhong had no Danshu iron coupon in his hand, and those royal forest soldiers pulled out their weapons one after another and surrounded the main hall to death.
"Let him go!" Zhao Guangyi admires most about this kind of man who is not afraid of death and is angry.
Wang Zhong ignored him and walked directly to the outside of the main hall, because when he thought of the death of Yang Ye and the people of Pear Flower Villa, his heart was full of self-blame, and he wished to die.
The failure of Yongxi's Northern Expedition did not affect the prosperity of Bianjing, when the night came, Bianjing was still brightly lit, and the pedestrians who came and went were talking about the deeds of Zhang and Yang Ye from Huashan.
Bianjing is not only the capital of the Great Song Dynasty, but also the people of the rivers and lakes, in this bustling Kyoto, there are three rivers and lakes sects: Baihua Pavilion, Xianyunju and Jinghu Villa.
In addition to Jinghu Villa on the outskirts of Bianjing City, Baihua Pavilion and Xianyunju are both in Kyoto. Jinghu Villa is the largest village in martial arts today, and its owner Ye Qianhua is the leader of today's martial arts alliance. Strictly speaking, Xianyunju is not a Jianghu sect, but all the people in it are masters, and the Jianghu people have regarded it as a big faction, and its master is Xianyun Gongzi Hua Feiyu, and Baihua Pavilion is a very distinctive sect, because they only accept female disciples, and its pavilion master is Zhuang Meier, who is known as the first beauty in today's martial arts.
In Kyoto, the people of these three sects have a very high status, mainly because they have some relationship with the government, and sometimes they also help the government to do things, such as arresting those difficult murderers and so on.
That night, a special guest was welcomed in the Hundred Flowers Pavilion, this guest was dressed in black and wore a ghost mask on his head, this special guest was the ghost face Yama.
"You're here!" Zhuang Mei'er and the ghost-faced Yama are separated by a curtain, under the beating of the lights, a graceful figure can be vaguely seen, even if you don't look at her face, looking at this figure, it will make countless men crazy, her voice is even better to hear, listening to this voice, it is like drinking a pot of warm wine in winter.
"I'm coming!" Ghost-faced Yama sat on the spot very casually, his voice was no longer so weird, but belonged to a man, and it sounded extremely comfortable.
Zhuang Mei'er sighed: "How I want you to take this ghost mask and sit and talk with you in a dignified manner!"
"A ghost will always be a ghost, and he will never be able to sit with a normal person in a dignified manner, unless he becomes a human again!" The voice of the ghost-faced Yama sounded at this time, and there seemed to be a lot of helplessness.
"You were so bold back then, you dared to go to Liao, and you became Xiao Xuan's righteous son!" Zhuang Meier's voice was a little resentful and regretful.
"I'm helpless too!" said Ghost-faced Yama.
"Yes, you are only seventeen years old, but you have to take on such a heavy responsibility, I really feel distressed to look at it, but I said that I will definitely help you!" Zhuang Meier said.
Hearing this, Ghost-faced Yama was silent. Zhuang Mei'er said: "Wang Yu was demoted to Jinzhou this time, he shouldn't say anything, right?"
Ghost-faced Yan Luo said: "He doesn't have the courage yet, but he didn't expect that Wang Zhong to really go to the palace." ”
"Do you want me to take action to deal with him?" Zhuang Mei'er said.
Ghost-faced Yama said, "No, he doesn't have any effect now." ”
Zhuang Mei'er stopped talking, and said with a ghostly face: "I want to sleep here for a while, I'm really sleepy!"
"Sleep, this place is always the safest!" Zhuang Mei'er's voice was extremely soft.
Zhuang Meier gently plucked the strings at this time, and the sound of the piano sounded, like a mountain stream flowing, which was exceptionally fresh and quiet. The ghost-faced Yama lay directly on the ground and began to fall asleep. Who would have thought that the terrifying ghost-faced Yama on the rivers and lakes would be so casual in this Hundred Flowers Pavilion? What is his relationship with this number one beauty in martial arts?
