I, Han Gaozu, actually traveled through Song Gaozong?

Chapter 160

"There is nothing wrong with Zheng Boke's Duan Yuyan. I am very pleased that you can do this."

Lin'an, which has been quiet for many days, finally became lively tonight. The merchants who had closed their doors for a long time, all lit firecrackers, and the streets were full of crackling sounds, and the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder. Son, finally suppress the bloody smell of Wang Xie and his soldiers.

The Lin'an government office has reaped a lot today. Just by being cut off by the dog's head, more than 70 people were killed. If you count the exiles, Xin Ciying handled more than 100 cases with extremely high efficiency.

The emperor did not let people go, the most important thing was not to let Zhao Huan, Empress Dowager Wei, and the old princess leave. In front of the lobby, blood accumulated on Mo Ren's ankles, and the Holy Emperor Xiaociyuan looked like a puppet, unable to speak or express.

Waiting until it was dark, the old princess declined the suggestion of Zhao Guanjia to invite her to have dinner here, and many bitter masters who won the lawsuit also had hope, and they all dispersed.

The sun rises as usual, and the days must pass.

If you want to live, you have to live, no matter who is the emperor, you have to live.

All the ministers, who have seen the emperor's past behavior, have become a little numb to this murderous Zhao official family, as if the emperor should look like this, and it seems that the emperor has always looked like this.

Those who came from the state and county later, although they have also heard about the actions of Zhao Guan's family, did not know until today when they met in the Chuigong Palace that the emperor's words to them were not just threats.

He can really do it.

So, when it was dark and everyone saw His Majesty the Emperor sitting high in the lobby of the government office, leaning against a chair, not showing his expression, only a vague figure of him could be seen...

They all felt the same as Su Shangshu - he seemed a little lonely.

But soon, this kind of thinking was discarded by everyone. Officials have generals, soldiers, soldiers, literature, military, and women.
Most importantly, he also has the power to wantonly kill people.

How could he be lonely?

I don't know how long it took, but when the shouts of peddlers started to be heard from the street, the emperor finally moved.

Seeing him stretching his waist a long way, all the ministers suddenly felt a little speechless.

The fishy smell here is so strong that normal people can't stand it, except for the one named Wang Qi, who has been sniffing greedily beside him... This person is just like his father, he is not normal, But the officials actually took a nap here.

Without waiting for their comforting words to come out, Liu Bang pointed at Zhao Ding:

"Walk with me."

In this way, there is a scene of a group of nobles walking on the streets of Lin'an.

It's not that Liu Bang didn't think of this way before Guo Yaoshi said about Zheng Zhuanggong.

In the case of being extremely confident in oneself and having strong control over the court, it is actually not impossible.

The advantage of this is of course that you can keep your reputation, but the disadvantage... Maybe if you are not careful, you will really do the thing of breeding tigers.

After several times of weighing, he finally chose an inappropriate but very correct method. Naturally, he had to wait a little longer before the money promised by the old princess arrived.

So when Zhao Ding's performance in Lin'an reached his ears, he quickly understood the old man's intentions. It is possible to do something betrayal, just like Lu Wan back then, who can also betray herself.

The most important thing is Liu Bang's trust in him... Zhao Mi has the responsibility and power to oversee the country, and no one knows the current situation of the Song Dynasty better than him.

Similarly, no one knows his own strength better than him. This strength refers not only to the soldiers he can command, but also refers to the attitude and reaction of the generals of the Song Dynasty towards him.

After all, the documents of each army had to go through Lin'an first.

Therefore, he will definitely not betray himself. This is a game of zero and one hundred, and everyone knows how to choose.

That ruled out the saying that Zhao Ding was a fool, and there was only one possibility left.

This old boy is playing Zheng Zhuanggong's set, and he wants to bear the reputation of killing his brother for himself.

He was not in Lin'an, so he let Zhao Huan...let him be in a controllable circle, let him misjudge the situation, let him inflate his ambition, let him awaken his own instinct of desire for power as a man.

On the day when Zhao Huan really made a move to replace it, no matter what Liu Bang did, he finally had a famous saying.

Although Zhao Xiangye knew that the officials knew his purpose, he still had some complicated emotions in his heart when he pointed it out so directly...

When did I reach such a tacit understanding with the officials?
When did he have such an idea to defend His Majesty with his life?
He also thought that it would be a failure in the end. After all, Zhao Huan had already had such signs, but it was a pity that the officials came back sooner after all.

At this time, he did not answer, but followed silently.

"If I follow my temper, Zhao Huan's fate will only be worse than Qin Hui's."

"But, but, I can't do it, even if I become the emperor, I still can't do it."

"Qin Shihuang is not afraid, he kills whenever he wants, and I want to be like him, but to be honest... the knife is always most useful when it is not revealed, and when it is revealed, there is no other way."

Zhao Ding only thought about the official family because Zhao Huan was not dead, so he was not very interested at this time, he paused for a while, but finally remained silent.

He knew that the emperor was not talking to himself, he just wanted someone to talk to.

After all, Zhao Ding was getting older, and Zhao Ding was struggling to walk these few steps. He gasped lightly, and looked at the back of the prime-year man in front of him...

I know that I can't catch up with him.

"You should put the big things first... As long as the Northern Expedition can be completed, you will be No. 1 under the Taizong Taizong of this dynasty. At that time, the ten Xiaociyuan Holy Emperors will not need to bother you. "

Liu Bang finally stopped, and Zhao Ding looked up, and it turned out that he had already arrived at Yuefu.

On the beam on the right side of the gate of his house, there is a person hanging now, and the cry of the young man who sued Zhao Huan can be heard from behind, and the official... He just looked up at the corpse, without saying a word for a long time .

"You got Zhao Ding wrong, you got two things wrong."

"I hope the official will make it clear."

"First, Zheng Boke and Duan Yuyan have a premise. It is a dispute between the monarch and the clan. You are my prime minister and my beloved minister, but you can't be that Zheng Zhuanggong. The status of Zheng Zhuanggong can only be let I will do it."

Zhao Xiangye nodded: "It's the minister who overstepped...but I don't know what the second wrong thing is?"

"The second thing..." Liu Bang greeted Wang Xiaoer to the front, and when he got closer, he answered Zhao Ding:

"The second thing is that Zhao Huan is going to die, and he can't wait until the Northern Expedition is over before he dies. I can't hold back this anger, not even for a day."

"By the way, there is a third thing... Don't compare your Taizu and Taizong with me in the future, they are different."

Zhao Ding carefully chewed the emperor's words, and saw him resting one hand on Wang Xiaoer's shoulder, pointing at Ji Wu and saying:
"Do you want revenge?"

Wang Xiaoer didn't know that much, but seeing that his brother-in-law and the current emperor couldn't do anything to that one, when Liu Bang asked him, he felt a lot of timidity.

"No, I don't want to."

Liu Bang squeezed his shoulders tightly, and his nails were embedded in his flesh, but Wang Xiaoer didn't even dare to shout out, he just winked, and it all showed on his face.

"Do you want revenge?"

"The officials... don't want to."

Then, the emperor slapped him on the head with a slap:

"You said it yourself, your father entrusted Ji Wu to you, and his current appearance is what you want to see?"

"Even if you can't stop it, now, you don't even want to take revenge!"

Wang Xiaoer faltered: "I don't want to cause you any trouble... The villain just accepts his fate, the fifth brother and the villain are both poor and lowly, and they can't live a good life... Now that the fifth brother is dead, it is retribution coming."

"God thinks that our family can't enjoy that rich life... Your Majesty just treat me as a fart and let it go."

After Liu Bang heard this, he raised his big hand and made a gesture to give him another blow, but when the hand was in the air, he thought of the old face of the old Wangtou again, so he couldn't put it down anymore.

After all, he let go of his strength, he stroked Wang Xiaoer's back:
"Forget it, I made things difficult for you."

After finishing speaking, he no longer looked at this brother-in-law, but went straight up the steps and stood in front of the former Lin'an poppier.

Even though it was already dark, Liu Bang could still see the dense scars on his body... It was still cold, and there was no smell on his body, as if he had just died.

This person has almost all the shortcomings that are hated by others, greedy for money and lust, greedy for life and afraid of death, pretending to be powerful, pretending... If he is given a little bit of power, he might become a disaster for one party.

If this happened to someone else, not to mention a hero, even a slightly normal person, maybe Liu Bang could bear it.

But it happened to be this person, and it happened to be this person who he didn't take seriously, and didn't look at him... The monks said that bad people can immediately become Buddhas by putting down the butcher knife, while good people do good deeds to accumulate merits for ten lives.

It may seem a little biased, but I don't think so, maybe letting someone put down the butcher knife is really much more difficult than letting him accumulate merits for several lifetimes.

Ji Wu is the same person as the villain who put down the butcher's knife. It is ten to one hundred times harder to ask him to do a heroic thing than to ask him to keep his own place and not cause trouble.

"Otherwise..." Zhao Xiangye followed up, "Give this brave man a grand burial. If he knows what the official wants, I'm afraid he will be satisfied."

Zhao Ding took it for granted, but for him, if the emperor could work hard to avenge himself... even if he didn't succeed, he would still cry and be satisfied.

"Don't say these useless words. If you die, you are dead. Except for paying for your life, everything else is fake."

"But the officials..."

In fact, he really wanted to ask if there was any way to deal with Zhao Huan perfectly.

Not only want him to die, but also want the people in the world not to blame the emperor for this incident, and let the clansmen of the Zhao family accept this fact without complaining...

Even if it is the reincarnation of the gods, I am afraid that it will not be able to do it.

I don't know how long the emperor looked at the corpse, but he refused to take Ji Wu down, and he was unwilling to reveal what he wanted to do.

The more this is the case, the more worried those who are close to him will be.

"Zhao Ding, remember to do a few things."

"The minister is here."

"First, keep an eye on the one hundred thousand, no, 12 taels of silver, as long as they pay the money, no matter when, no matter what I'm doing, come and listen to me right away."

"Secondly, let someone send some things from the palace to Yuefu... Mainly for Mrs. Yao Tai, let me say that I have accepted her love, thank you for what she did today... Things are not expensive, but they must be intimate."

"Thirdly, order someone to put the golden body on that Guan Yu again. When Xin Ciying interrogates these people tomorrow, he will ignore them. He will ask who made the move, and just kill them."

Zhao Ding responded again and again, these things are not big things, but since the emperor opened his mouth, let's just stare at it.

"There is one more." Liu Bang pinched the bridge of his nose with two fingers, and rubbed it fiercely, "Then what is the cost of the empress dowager?"

This woman was extremely greedy, and she was addicted to money like a golden glutton. She only came back for a month, and she had already amassed a lot of property.

Zhao Ding thought for a while: "The Empress Dowager added two more palace servants yesterday, and the daily expenses should be a thousand guan."

A woman who is useless except to disgust herself can spend a thousand coins a day...

Liu Bang didn't hesitate at all: "Minus."

Zhao Huan was easy to understand, the Empress Dowager Wei was the emperor's mother after all, even if the officials wanted to take Zhao Huan's skin off, it was impossible for them to touch the Empress Dowager Wei.

But now seeing the emperor's reaction, Zhao Xiangye became a little confused again... It seems that he has never seen this majesty clearly.

Confused is confused, but Zhao Ding knew it was a good thing, so he asked:
"Official, how much will be reduced?"

"Three meals a day, nothing else is allowed."

Before Zhao Ding could respond, Liu Bang quickly added:

"Even if it's three meals, don't be overwhelmed with food. Breakfast is steamed buns and porridge, lunch is porridge and steamed buns, and dinner is light, only porridge is enough."

This……

Zhao Ding persuaded: "Will it be too late? After all, she is the queen mother, but she doesn't even have any meat."

"It seems a little bit."

Just as Master Zhao was about to speak, he heard the emperor say:

"Let's add another piece of fried juniper over there. After the oil is over, it will not be regarded as a complete vegetarian."

After saying this, Liu Bang told everyone to disperse, and he went back to the palace with the guards of the Imperial City Secretary.
