Start with detective Li Yuanfang

"Imperial decree? How dare he ask for the imperial decree? I will never give it to him!!"

In Funing Hall, Zhao Ji jumped up, his face flushed red.

Even for ordinary wealthy households, the front yard of their home is occupied by the enemy. In order to relieve the crisis, it is unacceptable to invite a convicted prisoner from the prison to intercede, and finally to publicize it with great fanfare. The royal family with the most face.

As for the quick promise made before, there is no doubt that Zhao Ji just wanted to go back on his word.

As long as "Zuo Ming" retreats, the forbidden army moves in, and the new palace city is strengthened and built, the thieves will not be able to take advantage of the loopholes.

As for Gao Qiu, the accusation of colluding with the Great Rebellion is also convincingly proven, and he was executed in the downtown area to set an example to others!
But now this marketer, who has never had much political wisdom, actually made the most crucial request.

Once the imperial decree is requested and read out in public, Gao Qiu must be released afterwards, otherwise even the imperial decree will be bullshit, and the imperial authority will be wiped out.

Zhao Ji was so angry that his hands trembled: "These rebellious officials and thieves are cooperating inside and outside to threaten me. They will never succeed! I will leave the palace now, and we will return to Bianliang. The people there are looking forward to my return day and night!"

He Zhizhong of Houzhi below was startled when he heard the words. In normal times, he would whitewash the peace, but at this time, he really can't make the same mistakes again and again: "Since the invasion of the northern captives, Hebei and Henan have suffered serious military disasters, and the imperial court has moved their capitals. Moving to the south, a large number of wealthy households fled to avoid misfortune. The people of Bianliang are suffering, and the ordinary people are ignorant. I am afraid that it will be difficult for His Majesty to understand the difficulties..."

Zhao Ji said angrily: "When I went back, Bianliang was the capital of my Great Song Dynasty again, otherwise it would only decline. Don't they understand such a simple truth? And Liang Duzhi has seen everything along the way, and everything is clear. Could it be wrong?"

In the end, he thought he understood the Jiangnan Prime Minister's position: "Don't worry, He Xianggong, even if you go to Bianliang, Jinling will still be the new capital of our Great Song Dynasty, and this will never change!"

He Zhizhong sighed secretly, and could only speak more directly: "Your Majesty, do you still remember Cai Taizhi's memorial?"

Zhao Ji's face suddenly became more ugly.

Not long after the release of the Song-Liao Covenant, a memorial was sent from the Daming Mansion to Jinling. Exhausting the blood of the people and not showing mercy, forgetting the great hatred of the country and not avenging it, bearing the shame with shame, and the future generations will call your Majesty the Lord."

This memorandum scolded so harshly that it aroused the anger of the entire court, but it was greatly praised by the scholars. Such a painful statement of pros and cons, and such shocking words, just shows that Cai Jing is still an upright and loyal minister!
Zhao Ji was trembling with anger: "Cai Jing! Cai Jing! He thought he could talk nonsense and blaspheme the power of heaven by defending the Daming Mansion. I will punish him when I return to Bianliang!"

Seeing that he still didn't understand, He Zhizhong could only make it clearer: "Your Majesty, Cai Jing's daring to make such a false statement must have something to do with the local public opinion. It is impossible to play such a memorial!"

Only then did Zhao Ji react suddenly, but he didn't want to believe it. He immediately yelled at the servant: "Go! Call Liang Shicheng over! Let him and He Xianggong describe the people's sentiments in the north!"

The servant went out in a hurry, and then returned tremblingly: "Your Majesty, I searched all over the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but I couldn't find Liang Duzhi..."

Zhao Ji's eyes widened in disbelief: "He...he ran away?"

He Zhizhong secretly lamented that this rootless eunuch is really witty, but unfortunately, as the new prime minister, he can never run away, so he can only bow down and bow down: "Your Majesty, the people are the foundation of the country, and the foundation is solid and peaceful. Can't be suppressed, only by pardoning Gao Qiu and beheading Wang Fu, can the world be safe!"

Zhao Ji's face faded, "Must Gao Li be pardoned? Is there no other way?"

He Zhizhong lamented: "Compared with thieves stealing righteousness, occupying the palace city, and inciting people's sentiments, the two evils are compared, whichever is lesser, please make a decision, Your Majesty!"

Zhao Ji sat down slowly, his eyes were red, and tears were streaming down his face: "The emperor submits to jesters, which has never happened in ancient times. How can history books record me?"

He Zhizhong persuaded: "Your Majesty rewarded Gao Qiu for his achievements in recovering Yanyun, so he is not a jester, and His Majesty never succumbed to his courtiers, but was deceived by that treacherous Wang Fu..."

"Gao Qiu...Gao Qiu...why is this Cuju boy...cough cough cough!"

Hearing this, Zhao Ji cried even more sadly, and coughed violently while crying.

Undoubtedly, what he couldn't accept the most was Gao Lian's identity.

It would be fine to change it to someone else, even "Zuo Ming", but to let Zhao Ji, the majestic ninety-five-year-old, bow his head to Gao Qi, a young man who was by his side when he was a prince, made him feel that his dignity was lost and he was completely broken. Guarded.

These two days have been stagnated in the chest, and at this moment, all five internal organs are burned, coughing and coughing, a mouthful of blood spews out, Zhao Ji screams, and suddenly falls backwards.

"Your Majesty!! Hurry up and teach the imperial physician!!"

He Zhizhong screamed in horror.

I don't know how long the palace was in chaos. Zhao Ji finally settled down under the care of the imperial doctor. He Zhizhong stumbled out of the palace in a trance. Are you coming?"

Every moment nowadays is a huge damage to the prestige of the imperial court, and a quick decision should be made, but the official family fell ill at this time, which is simply worse!

This was indeed the case, and when the second day began, the Custodians attacked again, and were easily defeated by the heroes who took turns to rest.

"The thirteen generals returned to Yumen, they are not ashamed of the big man, righteousness is more important than life, so it is!"

Laughing loudly on the city tower, the story of the thirteen iron-blooded soldiers returning to Yumen was preached over and over again. Compared with yesterday's nervousness, today's heroes are full of pride, just like a small gathering of heroes in the Zhao and Song palaces.

Chengxia Guan Sheng and Hu Yanzhuo couldn't bear it any longer, they brought Yang Zhi together, and came to He Zhizhong: "Master, we can't go on like this anymore, let's get the siege equipment!"

After hearing what the three generals said, He Zhizhong finally had a source of anger to vent his anger, and shouted: "Do you know how much responsibility this will take? Can you take responsibility? After using the siege equipment, you will definitely be able to take down the city." Castle?"

After being yelled at like this, the three of them could only half-kneel down, clasped their fists together and pleaded guilty: "The general didn't think carefully, and I hope the lord will calm down!"

He Zhizhong pointed at them, with a look of hating iron but not steel: "You are all the empresses of the general family, and you have lived in the country. You have been favored by the emperor for generations. Now is the time to repay you. No matter what, you must drive the thieves out today. Imperial City, can it be done?"

Before Yang Zhi could react for a while, the faces of Guan Sheng and Hu Yanzhuo had changed, but they clasped their fists heavily: "The last general takes orders!"

When He Zhizhong walked away, the three of them got up slowly, and Yang Zhi also realized what the prime minister meant, and took a deep breath: "Let's go! If I give up this life, I can't insult the reputation of my ancestors! "

Guan Sheng and Hu Yanzhuo looked at each other, and they both saw the determination and deep worry in each other's eyes.

They are definitely not people who are greedy for life and afraid of death, but they are afraid that even if they lose their lives, they will not be able to change anything.

But now that He Zhizhong issued the death order, he just blindly asked the soldiers to do their best. As a humble general, could he still disobey the order of a minister?

"Hey, these idiots are still ordering randomly!"

On the tower, Ding Run looked disdainful, and he came to Li Yan and said, "Senior, those soldiers of the Song Army have been persecuted, and I'm afraid they will desperately launch an offensive!"

Li Yan's gaze was like a torch, and he had a panoramic view, from the densely packed people in the distance, to the soldiers waiting in formation nearby, and finally fell on the three leaders of Guan Sheng. Once it fails, the morale of the imperial army will also collapse, and they will completely lose the courage to attack directly, and I will take action myself!"

Ding Run laughed and said, "That's really killing chickens with a sledgehammer!"

This is actually necessary.

Guan Sheng, Hu Yanzhuo, and Yang Zhi's martial arts are all top-notch in the world. When the three generals rushed forward with the aura of failure or success, showing what they had learned from their families, they were unstoppable.

Until a figure in a toga came before him like a god descending.

"'Zuo Ming', Yang Zhi is here, not yet..."

Yang Zhi was ecstatic, brandishing his family-heirloom sword that cut iron like mud, and was about to win the first victory, and then a dreamy and blurred light of the sword fell on his head.

Under the shocking gaze of Guan Sheng and Hu Yanzhuo who arrived later, Yang Zhi seemed to be in a daze. He didn't know how to block. Easily tied down.

"Using this kind of incarnation, using sword techniques such as 'Immortal Dream' and 'Ask Common Life', the effect of mental coercion is a bit stronger."

Li Yan was very satisfied with the power of the sword move he had further improved based on the characteristics of his avatar, and turned his eyes to Guan Sheng and Hu Yanzhuo.

When the two generals worked together side by side, they failed to pass five knives from his hands, and were defeated and restrained one after another. Not only did the Forbidden Army who rushed up with them turned pale and fled, but the people who could see clearly burst into enthusiastic applause .

"It's over!"

The most difficult thing to accept is undoubtedly He Zhizhong, the prime minister's face has changed terribly, and the last hope of a strong attack in his heart is completely shattered. Now he can only hope that the man in the palace will wake up quickly and make an order as soon as possible.

result.

On the third day, there was no movement in the palace.

On the fourth day, the imperial decree still had not been issued.

When the imperial city was occupied for five full days, He Zhizhong knelt down outside the Funing Hall for several hours, a seemingly weighty imperial decree finally appeared in his hands, and he stumbled back to the city gate, shouting loudly Drink: "Come here, take that treacherous king Fu who has slandered the high-ranking officials with unwarranted crimes!"

Wang Fu was in the censor's team, falling asleep.

When encountering such a thing, the courtiers did not dare to be absent in order to show their loyalty, but they spent most of their time here and were exhausted.

When I was half asleep and half awake, I was dreaming that I was going to be appreciated, that I was being favored by all the officials, and I felt a loud crash, and the officials around me suddenly avoided, and then two wolf-like guards rushed towards me. Come over, press down on his shoulder all at once, and push him forward.

"I...you..."

As soon as Wang Fu woke up, his mouth was gagged. When his knees hurt and he fell to his knees fiercely, the people not far away wanted to rush over angrily.

"Injustice... woo woo woo... This is Shang's intention... woo woo..."

When the raindrops of stones flew towards here, there was no one around Wang Fu. At first he struggled to spit out the rags in his mouth, but was soon smashed to the ground, like a maggot Generally curled up on the ground, and finally stopped moving.

After confirming that this man was basically smashed to death, He Zhizhong took a deep breath, and declared the decree again: "The emperor of the imperial city is generous, virtuous, and loyal. , have contributed to the society, this pillar of talent is also slandered by traitors, my heart aches..."

The rest of the nonsense didn't go on, because a figure in a prison uniform came slowly from a distance, and the crowd he saw suddenly cheered loudly: "Gao Qingtian!!" "Gao Qingtian!!" "Gao Qingtian!" !!"

This unstoppable wave directly suppressed the voice of the imperial decree, making He Zhizhong tremble all over, making all the officials change color in horror, and making Zhao Song's country and society really begin to crumble.

The people are the foundation of the country, and the foundation is the foundation of the country, and vice versa?
