Yi Song

Chapter 189 Tong Guan is still not ready

"Your Majesty, Shaanxi has sent a report from Shaanxi Hedong Xuanfu Envoy Tong Taiwei."

Wang Fu's words made Zhao Ji frown.

First he turned to Zhao Kai and said: "Third brother, don't think too much, rest at home. It's time to read and have fun. Three theater troupes have recently joined the palace, and the Nan Opera is very exciting. I will give you a theater troupe. you."

"Thank you, daddy."

"Okay, go back." At this moment, Zhao Ji suddenly felt like a kind father, comforting his aggrieved son in a good voice.

At this time, Zhao Kai was also extremely filial and gentle.

"Yes, my son is going back first."

When Zhao Kai left, Zhao Ji turned around and asked impatiently: "What did Tong Guan say?"

"Tong Taiwei said that the Hexi Family was ready to make a move since the last autumn, and several military divisions were mobilized frequently. The Baoan Army, Huaide Army, and Lanzhou were all attacked by the Hexi Family's soldiers and horses, and several flags of the Qisheng Army and Bubazi were even found. "

Some people say that this is because the Hexi family has been at war with the Song Dynasty for hundreds of years, especially the several wars during the Xining, Yuanfeng, and Shaosheng years, which exhausted their national power and were no longer able to launch large-scale wars.

I don’t make any suggestions, I don’t agree with anything, and I don’t object to anything. If something goes wrong, I won’t be blamed.

Several imperial historians said that Tong Guan supported the soldiers with self-respect and had evil intentions. Zhao Ji thought of the looming figure of Tong Guan in Zhu Meng's case, and immediately lost his composure. He decided to write Yubi at night and resolutely transfer Tong Guan back.

Zhao Ji closed his eyes slightly and didn't speak for a long time.

When this happens, it's because the officials have great ambitions and foresight, it's because the ministers are working hard and loyal to the country, it's because Tong Taiwei is strategizing and commanding, and a few generals are listening to orders and working hard with their lives.

Tong Guan had led the army in Shaanxi for more than ten years, and his achievements were "outstanding". He won several battles from time to time, which made the officials happy, which greatly satisfied his expectation of becoming a civilized man with military ethics and establishing unparalleled achievements.

Other than that, there is no other reason.

If his front foot leaves Tongguan, the six northwest border defenses with his back foot will collapse.

The question was thrown to Zhao Ji. He was originally an indecisive person, so he made one idea a day.

Tong Qing has worked hard in the northwest and has done a good job. If he wins it rashly, he will break the hearts of the heroes.

Now that Tong Guan needs to be transferred back because of the Zhu Meng case, what should the northwest do?

Everyone in the Privy Council, who had been fed with money by Tong Taiwei, spoke in unison.

Seizing power and making money, they all moved forward bravely. They are immune to all kinds of things that require them to take responsibility, including fire and water.

All the ministers knew that the officials hesitated again.

I just made up my mind today to bring Tong Guan back. In the evening, a certain beauty got the benefit of Tong Guan and helped her to blow the pillow, but she changed her tune the next day.

The most important thing is that during the more than ten years that Tong Guan was in Shaanxi, no major war broke out between the Song Dynasty and the Hexi family, nor did the northwest border have three surprises a day, or the enemy troops invaded and plundered the territory.

However, this argument is untenable in the court.

The same is true for other ministers in power.

"Tong Taiwei requested that he be allowed to serve in Weizhou for his crimes. He said that he was mobilizing troops and horses, raising food and grass, and expected to launch an attack on the Hexi family in May in summer to regain the land of Henan."

Zheng Juzhong, who was also the judge of the Privy Council, was not familiar with military affairs and did not want to take responsibility, so he simply kept silent for a thousand words.

Wang Fu raised his head and glanced at Zhao Ji. He found that he was stroking his beard and his face was gloomy, so he continued.

How can the Northwest Military leave Taiwei Tong?

In the afternoon, a chamberlain official said that Tong Taiwei was unjustly accused in the Zhu Meng case, and there was no evidence to directly prove his involvement. One is in the northwest, the other is in the southeast, thousands of miles apart, how can they collude together?

If the officials are so suspicious, we will not dare to do things carefully outside in the future.

When Zhao Ji heard this, he was right. Besides, Tong Guan led the rebellion? He is a person who has no roots. If he wants to rebel, no one dares to follow him.

So I changed my mind again. It has changed over and over again, and until now, I still don’t have an accurate idea.

"Erlang, what do you think about this?" Zhao Ji raised his head and asked.

What do I think? I stood and watched!

In the final analysis, your temperament, which changes day and night, is that you are afraid of difficulties and do not dare to face responsibilities.

In the end, it harmed yourself and your family, and also harmed the entire Song Dynasty.

"I am not familiar with the northwest military, so I dare not make any rash comments. I just feel that Tong Guan alone is not a problem."

When Zhao Ji heard this, he said, yes, he sent Tong Guan to the northwest. In addition to leading the army, the most important thing was to supervise the generals of the Western Army and spy on them to see if they had any different intentions.

He did quite well in this regard, which also meant that he had conflicts with the generals of the Western Army. As long as he could not get along with the generals, there would be no problems.

Then you can figure it out slowly!

Okay, that's it. I've decided to put it down first and wait for the time to properly dispose of it. The most important thing right now is that I need to catch up on my sleep.

I played too late last night and didn't go to bed until dawn. I was woken up early in the morning. No way, I'm too sleepy!

Zhao Ji yawned and looked tired.

"Okay, let's stop talking here, and you can go do your own things."

"Yes!"

After leaving the Huixian Hall, Liu Guozhang and Wang Fu walked together.

"Erlang, Tong Guan's dish is a bit undercooked."

"Yeah, don't be in a hurry, cook it slowly, the heat will be there before you know it."

"That's good. Erlang, the Gongyuan matter has cleared up the three kings. It won't look good in the East Palace."

"Your Highness is a sensible person." Liu Guozhang replied calmly.

Wang Fu saw that Liu Guozhang knew what he was thinking, so he stopped asking more questions and said something else, "In the case of leaking provincial examination questions, the officials have given the job to you and me. How are we going to try it? What are the rules for Erlang?"

"Brother Jiang Ming, you are the chief judge, and I am the deputy judge. And as a deputy judge, I am just playing a side role and leading the signatures. Brother Jiang Ming has the final say in everything."

Wang Fu put on an expression of dissatisfaction: "You and I are as close as brothers, and there is no difference between us. If Erlang says this, he doesn't treat me as a brother anymore. He's out of touch. Say what you have to say!"

"Brother Jiang Ming, I want to put someone in this case."

"Who?"

"Qiao Dalin."

"Qiao Dalin? What's the origin?"

"Doctor Wu Jing, Concubine Qiao's cousin."

Wang Fu's expression changed slightly when he heard Concubine Qiao's name.

This concubine is not an ordinary concubine. She is currently the concubine who has given birth to the most princes for the official family, and her favorability is definitely extraordinary.

It's risky to mess with her cousin.

Wang Fu weighed the pros and cons in his mind and evaluated whether it was worth offending Concubine Qiao for Liu Erlang.

"Qiao Dalin, what have you committed?"

"He was originally a scoundrel who forced good girls into prostitution and engaged in gambling and lending money. After Concubine Qiao became a nobleman, she wanted to find her ancestors. After many twists and turns, she found this guy. She said that he was a brother who had not yet been born in the fifth class, so she recognized him as a concubine. younger brother.

Originally, he crossed his single-plank bridge, and I took my sunshine avenue, and the water in the well did not interfere with the water in the river. But some bastard, I don't know, went to Concubine Qiao to slander her, saying that she wanted the official to grant her a marriage, and pointed out the master of Lingguang Academy to Qiao Dalin.

This matter has not yet been revealed, and this guy is shouting all over the street, hoping that everyone in Bianjing will know that he wants to be the master of Shanlingguang Academy. "

Qiao Dalin is asking for death!

After hearing the grudges, Wang Fu couldn't help but mutter in his heart. If you mess with anyone, go and mess with Liu Erlang. Who in Bianjing City doesn’t know about Liu Erlang’s affairs with Master Lingguang and Master Houde?

How many of your heads dare to step in and become the fourth party?

Well, the four of you will become dead, and Liu Erlang must kill you.

"Erlang, Qiao Dalin was involved in the exam question leak case. He can't be the main culprit. If he was just named an accessory and Concubine Qiao said something, Kaifeng Mansion would let Qiao Dalin go the next day.

You have spent all your efforts to spite Concubine Qiao and ended up with this result, Erlang, you must not be willing to accept it. "

I didn't want to put Qiao Dalin in originally, I just took the opportunity to test you.

I didn't expect that you still have some "conscience". Although you didn't agree directly, you gave me a few words of advice and helped analyze the pros and cons. For Wang Fu, this was enough and heart-to-heart talk.

It seems that he still has value in his heart.

"I understand, then I will think of another way."

"Erlang, someone is slandering Concubine Qiao and wants to take over Qiao Dalin, the master of Shanlingguang Academy. Who told you this news?"

Wang Fu cares more about this.

Being able to detect such secret information shows that Liu Erlang is well-informed in the palace. Someone can help you find out the news, and naturally they can also help you find out what the officials are doing.

Come to think of it, this is so important.

"Hehe, hehe." Liu Guozhang laughed dryly.

"Hehe." Wang Fu also laughed dryly, understanding.

Everyone has their own magical powers, so don’t pry around each other.
