The last conscience of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 94 Another ruthless person

Zhao Ji's expression was a little strange, as if hearing words like his brother or cousin made him very alert.

Maybe it's tradition.

From his wife to his great-grandfather and then to..., it was always like this.

Liang Xin pretended not to see Zhao Ji's expression and continued talking.

"The difference is that in the former, the reputation of the royal family will not be damaged. It is all the bad things done by the evil slaves. In the latter, as the emperor, you are responsible for the justice of the world and bear heavy responsibility to the emperor's relatives."

After hearing this, Zhao Ji asked: "What happens after the heavy responsibility?"

"Find a place, trap them, and still provide for them. Control them so that they don't have any extra money, and they won't take in those desperadoes anymore. They don't have extra money to make friends with the courtiers, and they won't scurry around each other." Here, Liang Xin's tone changed: "I don't know now whether King Jian has given up or not."

Zhao Ji's eyes changed: "Then, as a holy king, it is natural for him to destroy his relatives for justice."

Liang Xin: "Mr. Bansang, when you proposed reforms to the clan, it was a helpless move. The clan's annual consumption of treasury money has exceeded twice that of officials' salaries. Everything you saved bit by bit has been spent by them. It's normal to use it. The food and drink expenses are just that, the chaos in Renzong’s palace was actually due to the clan members eyeing the throne.”

Zhao Ji asked: "Who spent money to support a group of desperadoes?"

Liang Xin said a few names. After listening, Zhao Ji lowered his head and thought.

Liang Xin just thought it was Zhao Ji thinking about how to deal with it. After all, they were all relatives of his family and members of the royal family.

But who would have thought, Zhao Ji thought for a while, raised his head and asked, "What is the relationship between these people and me? Who is their grandfather? Who is their great-grandfather? Why don't I seem to have heard of these names?"

what……

Liang Xin didn't know how to answer all of a sudden.

After thinking for a while: "I don't know either, I just know that they are a clan."

Zhao Ji made up his mind: "Except for my grandfather, as long as they don't starve to death. How should these people you mentioned be punished according to the law?"

"According to the law, redemption, court training, confinement, and expulsion." There are five kinds in total. Liang Xin only mentioned four, and the last one is beheading. This is basically impossible to execute. After all, it is a clan. It is of no use except for serious rebellion.

Zhao Ji said: "Be serious."

"clear."

Zhao Ji thought very simply. He asked his younger brother Zhao Si to take a look and reflect on it himself.

There is indeed a desire to kill the chicken to scare the monkey.

Since Zhao Ji agreed to this matter, Liang Xin was not in a hurry to take action immediately. She first collected evidence and then started from shops and farms.After that, they would directly hold the clan accountable, starting with those who had good relations with King Jian, to create an illusion for the entire Bianjing city.

This is the emperor targeting King Jian.

And what Liang Xin wants to target is the entire Zhao family clan.

After dinner, Zhao Ji didn't listen to how the ordinary memorials were handled. He wanted to go to Taoyuan Pavilion.

Liang Xin sent Zhao Ji across the wooden bridge.

As far as Liang Xin knows about Zhao Ji at this time, Zhao Ji's enthusiasm for Taoyuan Pavilion can last at least a few months. Then he will enter a period of boredom, and then it may become relatively normal. He goes there three times a month. Or five times.

When the time comes, just prepare new gadgets.

Liang Xin watched Zhao Ji go to Taoyuan Pavilion on the wooden bridge. After returning to Dongkua Yard, she heard faint crying inside.

Stand close and listen carefully.

Han Zhongyan.

A 62-year-old man was crying incessantly.

vaguely heard.

"Well, that little thief came to my Han family just because he thinks our Han family are all loyal people. He..." It was a long string of dialects.

wrong.

Liang Xin knew that Han Zhongyan was a local. What dialect did he speak?But I heard Fan Chunli say: "You are an elegant person. You can't understand the curses. It seems to be the dialect of Dingzhou. Stop scolding. If it weren't for Brother Shen, your Han family would still be the defendant in court, but now you are Witnesses, even if I am the judge of the case, important witnesses must be given a seat."

Wow……

Han Zhongyan cried again.

He figured it out.

It was Liang Xin who was released from prison by Ren Boyu, and he also provided a lot of evidence of the crimes of his Han family. If Ren Boyu was really impeached, not to mention his own brother, his family, and even he himself would be demoted. Put it.

But the truth is, scare him, wait until he gets scared, and then hand it over to Zhang Dun, an old thief.

In order to fear that he would be forced to fight desperately, he called Fan Chunli to make peace.

Han Zhongyan is just cowardly, but it does not mean he is not intelligent enough.

As Zhang Dun said, if a gentleman fights with a group of villains, he will suffer losses anytime and anywhere.

Especially when you meet a real villain like yourself.

In addition, Liang Xin is a pure evil person.

Liang Xin continued to listen outside.

I heard Zhang Dun speak: "In a few days, Yuxian Tower and Taiqing Tower will compete in Taoyuan Pavilion. I heard that the chef of Taiqing Tower, Shenzong had eaten his food and agreed. It has been six years. If he doesn’t take charge, he’s going to come to this two-floor competition. I’ll wait for three of us to go with him, sign the bill, and not pay the bill, so he’ll be poor.”

Han Zhongyan stopped crying instantly: "Could it be that in the banquet given by Shenzong, Tongzhou's rotten steamed lamb?"

"Correct."

"Together."

Han Zhongyan once ate a dish, but he could only use a spoon, not chopsticks, because he couldn't pick it up.

When Liang Xin heard this, she turned and left.

Not far away, Wang Pu came.

"Young Master."

"You're not staying with the official family. What's wrong?"

"Yes." Wang Pu said, "Eunuch Bai wants to see you and says there is something very important."

Liang Xin replied: "I'll see you on the other side of the stone bridge. Go and accompany the official."

"Yes." Wang Pu turned around and ran away.

Very few people knew about Bai E. At this time, he was fighting openly and life-and-death with Zhao Youfu, and the person in the palace who could make Bai E trustworthy, Liang Shicheng, was not there.Wang Youzhong and Lu Wencong took people to search their homes, but they were not in the palace.

There was also Eunuch Hai, and Bai E didn't want to say a word to him.

Therefore, he asked his trusted godson to find Wang Pu and pass on a gossip.

This was a secret signal. Wang Pu knew that Bai E had something important, so he came to notify Liang Xin.

Inside the palace wall, there is a corner.

Liang Xin meets Bai E.

When Bai E saw Liang Xin, he quickly raised his head and said hurriedly: "We must find a way to get rid of Zhang Dun. There is an internal agent in the Chu Palace. Tell me a piece of news. There are [-] armors in the Chu Palace. I don't know where he is." They were made there, hidden in the caravans, and scattered and transported to Bianjing and Jingzhao."

Liang Xin asked: "Why do you want to get rid of Zhang Dun?"

Bai E replied: "Twenty-five years ago, the first resistance to Ban Shanggong's reform was the two highnesses, Shenzong's younger brother. The two highnesses continued to discuss political affairs. According to the Za family, they were very aggressive and a bit unscrupulous. Especially His Royal Highness, even more so."

"Afterwards, there was an unjust case, and someone accused Taizu's descendants of treason. It was all false, but Shenzong secretly instructed that it must be investigated. There are files to investigate this case, and it is full of loopholes."

　It will be on the shelves at this time tomorrow
