Chapter 52 The Merciful Emperor
The Shi family brothers were really miserable. Yun Zheng came out of the Buhua Hall and saw Shi Zhongxin and his younger brother Shi Daxin kneeling on the porch of the Chugong Hall. It seemed that they had been kneeling for a long time. The face was pale by the cold wind, but the two of them moved. Don't dare to move.
"I saw it, the treatment is different. The two old brothers were kneeling in the cold wind, while the damn civil servants were kneeling in the hall. This is the difference." Wang Zhe poked Yun Zheng with his arm, and asked him to see him. Kaifeng, kneeling in the hall, mentioned the official affairs of the Criminal Prison, and Bao Zheng, who was standing aside with his eyes closed and his face turned gray.
Yun Zheng ignored the people in the hall, but took out his hand cage from his sleeve and threw it to Shi Zhongxin who looked up and begged him. Wang Zhe sighed and threw his hand cage to Shi Daxin. The two brothers' hands pressed. On the bluestone slabs full of frost, they were already blue in the cold. Giving them a cage means that they will not stand by and watch.
The two brothers of the Shi family were grateful to each other, and bowed their hands to their arms, put the thrown cage into their arms, and still knelt there, expressing that they were very grateful for their help.
As the ministers stepped into the hall gate one after another, Lu Gong was almost ashamed of shame. Pang Ji walked to him and shouted: "Removing his duties means dereliction of duty, and starting again means being brave. Knowing shame today is not the glory of the future. .”
Lu Gong bowed and thanked him, and indeed raised his head. The guilt on his face was wiped out. It seemed that others were standing and he was kneeling. There was no difference. The change in a moment made Yun Zheng treat his own person. The senior brother admired him and was promising.
Yun Zheng saw that Lu Gongzhu looked at him and nodded quickly. Lu Gongzhu's heart seemed to be relieved suddenly, and he also nodded to Yun Zheng. He already understood that Yun Zheng, who had always been difficult to deal with, would not cause trouble this time. .
Zhao Zhen coughed violently, slapped the dragon chair and made a sound, and the sound was a little out of tune.
"Who can tell me what's going on? The huge imperial capital has no less than 50,000 guards. The mansions of eleven ministers were burned overnight, the academy was robbed, and the grand Kaifeng Mansion was almost swallowed by Zhu Rong. Say that the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty were all drunk and not worth the money? The three yamen were like a waste. The soldiers and horses in the five cities were placed on top of them, and Kaifeng Prefecture was retaliated against by evil thieves. This was a great shame and humiliation that had never been seen since the founding of the Song Dynasty, Pang Ji. As Pingzhang, can’t you give me an answer?”
The emperor asked the prime minister in court. This is very rare. Usually, the prime minister would say something he could not resign, and then the emperor would restrain his anger and encourage him a few words before he would formally discuss the matter.
But today is different. Pang Ji did not apologize, but directly held Wu Ban and started the music: "Your Majesty, everyone in the world knows one truth, that is, arrows are shot from one direction, as long as iron is accumulated as a wall You can beware of arrows shot from this direction. If the arrows shot from this direction have no direction, you must build an iron house to prevent arrows from hurting us.
We all understand this simple truth, but in reality, what we block the arrow is a shield, and there is no strong fortress like an iron house for us to use. Since we are using a shield, there will inevitably be omissions.
Zhang Jun's evil thief had evil thoughts because his position was not in line with his wishes, and finally caused such a tragic disaster. I think it was wrong for the Ministry of War to not identify the treacherous and slanderous in time, but the three yamen, as the superiors, did not know anyone. It is clear that the corpse is above the position, and the evil thief Zhang Jun has died of a fire in the family. The corpse should be exposed for three days to serve as a warning to others."
Zhao Zhen gritted his teeth and said, "Do you think Zhang Jun is the main evil?"
The emperor's words were heartbroken, no one dared to interrupt, and others lowered their heads. Only Yun Zheng stretched out his neck and looked at King Pu standing in front, and found that the old guy was indeed able to hold on, not only standing
It was very steady. From the side, the expression on this guy's face seemed to be in a shared hatred of the enemy, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.
It seems that being a treacherous minister requires a firm heart to be successful. Yun Zheng feels that his cultivation is not enough and he cannot achieve such a meticulous expression. He often relies on making jokes to avoid the past, and his level is not stopped.
At the same level, if you want to become a traitor, you have to strengthen your cultivation to achieve it.
Whether it was Pang Ji's shameless remarks just now, the performance of the Shi brothers putting their hands in their arms, or the gossip of Wang Zhe who fueled the fire, or the expression of King Pu's clear breeze blowing on the hills, it was enough for Yun Zheng to learn it.
For a while.
Han Qi went out to listen to the lecture: "Your Majesty, you can learn from the captured thieves that Zhang Jun is the only culprit."
Zhao Zhen smiled and said with a slight smile: "I have always had this kind of thing in Song Dynasty. Such things were left unresolved. This time, I will burn the mansions of ministers, the Imperial College, and the Kaifeng Prefecture. Next time, the fire may cause disaster to the palace.
Things can't always be so mixed. If this continues, one day I will not be able to survive. Since that's the case, let me find out clearly."
Bao Zheng knelt down straight with his hands holding Wubang and said, "This is the incompetence of the empress. Please dismiss the empress and take the title as a warning to those who are later!"
Yun Zheng widened his eyes and looked at the confrontation between the ministers and the kings in the Song Dynasty, sighing. As Bao Zheng knelt down, a large group of officials on the bricks knelt down and asked the emperor to punish him. This is nothing more than a crime.
, This is the rhythm of planning to piss the emperor to death. Seeing Zhao Zhen’s face pale and shaking, Yun Zheng felt that the emperor was very pitiful.
Zhao Zhen discovered Yun Zheng's different expression, suppressed the anger in his heart and asked, "Mr. Wen Xin has always been unique. I wonder if there is a strange prescription to treat my heart disease?"
Seeing that everyone's eyes were gathered on him, especially Pang Ji's chainsaw-like look that made people numb. The prime minister's majesty was not something he said. Since he had been stolen by Zhao Zhen, he had already been fired.
When I was on the barbecue, Yun Zheng had no choice but to speak.
"I'm telling Your Majesty that although I have given the honor of the third-class person in the Certificate by Your Majesty, I am still a military minister. Since I am a military minister, I'm just a solution to the military man."
Seeing that Yun Zheng did not refuse, there was a little blood on his pale face, Zhao Zhen said warmly: "I am a famous military expert, so the method I said will naturally not be wrong. You might as well tell me to take a look at it."
Yun Zheng bowed and said, "Everything has a cause and effect. If such a problem occurs in the army commanded by Weichen, Weichen will not hesitate to be responsible for fire prevention, patrol camp, and the officers and soldiers on duty will be killed together,
Avoid future troubles.
There must be unjust in this, but the two powers are more inferior, so those who are unjust are unjust. Only when the war is over will a real investigation be started, and the wronged person will be compensated to recover the real murderer's Yuzui.
This method is naturally not applicable to the court. If we kill indiscriminately like in the army, wouldn’t our Song Dynasty be like a joke? But I think that this matter must be found out.
It was not because Weichen's house was burned to find the murderer, but because Weichen discovered from a military perspective that as long as the time is right and with appropriate means, the imperial capital of Tokyo is indeed likely to be burned by a fire.
, Weichen has checked the climate in Tokyo and found that when the yin stops the yang in spring, there will be a southeast wind coming in an endless stream. Such a strong wind will blow for at least seven days. Everyone, just imagine if the fire last night happened.
In the spring, hehehe, the disaster in Tokyo will come.
So I think it doesn't matter who to deal with it. Pang Xiang said it is reasonable. Only a thousand days of thieves can be used to prevent thieves. We only ask who the person who sets the fire? There is no airtight in the world.
We will find out the wall slowly, and I think Zhang Jun is probably not dead, but the Song Dynasty probably has no place to establish his foothold. The places he can go to are nothing more than Liao Kingdom and Xixia.
Goryeo, Japan, or overseas countries.
I think the Liao Kingdom is impossible. If he went to the Liao Kingdom, the Liao Kingdom would be in trouble at this moment. Yelu Hongji would definitely tie him up and send him to Tokyo with both hands. It would be impossible to go to Xixia. Hehe, I am against the people of Xixia.
They know a lot about things that are not good, and they will not do anything. The people of Xixia will only arrest him and sell him to His Majesty at a high price.
Therefore, I believe that if Your Majesty sends people to the seaport and ports, you will definitely gain something. If you focus on visiting the Japanese mission, you will definitely find it even greater. I always believe that the missing and deaths of young people will be the same as the Japanese.
People are related, and the cause of the Tokyo fire is caused by the disappearance of teenagers."
After Yun Zheng finished speaking, he retreated to the court and ignored Pang Ji and others' surprise eyes. Yun Zheng did not take the opportunity to add to the insult, which made them very strange. He shifted the emperor's attention to the murderer instead of focusing on the court.
It's a great thing, after all, Pang Ji and others also want to find out who the evil person was.
Zhao Zhen glanced at Chen Lin on the side, and Chen Lin hid behind the curtain.
Seeing Chen Lin leaving, the emperor nodded and said, "Your family's words do have the effect of punishing the past and preventing the future. Even if I am not an Emperor of Wu, I still have the intention of killing Emperor Wu. Since the military patrol shops are no longer useful, then the whole thing will be
Let’s cancel the severance. Zhou Tong, the man who ordered Du Yu, took over immediately and selected good people from the imperial guards to reorganize the military patrol shops. The military patrol shops that caused chaos this time were killed.
Shi Zhongxin was unaware of the wisdom of others, and ordered the position of the Zhongcheng Military Office and the Ministry of Personnel was dismissed from the post of the Central Military Office. Pan Yu took over. Shi Daxin was not strict in the imperial court, so he ordered the guards to be punished and asked for the official military officers of the Ministry of Personnel to be punished.
The Ministry of War was incompetent and the two doctors fled to Yazhou and were pardoned and refused to be pardoned!"
Yun Zheng sighed in his heart, the emperor was not brave enough. If the emperor could dismiss the Shi family brothers from office and seize titles today, Bao Zheng would be sent to the military state, and then put Lu Gongzhu in prison to investigate. Finally, all the military patrol personnel should be beheaded.
Beheading the head, the ones that should be sent out, is what the emperor should do the most.
Instead of doing things kindly and perfunctorily, venting the anger with the two unlucky guys sent by the civil servant. Isn’t the most common saying of the emperor not leaving the Meridian Gate and beheading? (To be continued...)
