Chapter eight hundred and sixty third truth
"Wang Zhong, you hurried into the palace to see me, what's the matter?"
As the young magistrate of Jingzhao Prefecture, Wang Zhong has a fourth-rank official rank. Such an identity is qualified. He can go directly to the palace to meet the emperor at the specified time. Of course, there are many officials like him in the capital, but no one will be so bored that he can take the initiative to ask for the emperor. There is a saying that it is good to accompany the king as if he is with a tiger. If the emperor is not close to the officials he values, it is not a good thing. Therefore, in most cases, unless the emperor takes the initiative to summon him, the officials will hide from afar and be calm. That is the way to be an official.
Wang Zhong took the initiative to enter the palace at this time, and he came in such a hurry, so something must have happened, and things may not be ordinary.
Sure enough, Wang Zhong said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the group of people had just arrived in Fengjing. Because of their strange whereabouts, they did not answer the questions and remained silent. They were taken down by the soldiers who were inspecting the streets of the inspectors on the spot, and then sent to Jingzhao Mansion..."
It happened to be Wang Zhong on duty today. After the soldiers from the inspection institute sent groups to Jingzhao Mansion, according to the system, suspicious people need to be questioned and identified before being locked up in the cell. They cannot just arrest individuals or be locked up.
Wang Zhong is a relatively honest and honest official. If Zhongqu can provide a certificate of identity and explain the reason clearly, then there will be nothing and be released directly.
The group who had been silent just now, but when facing Wang Zhong's inquiry, they changed their normal behavior, spoke and told everything.
After listening to the story of the crowd, Wang Zhong was extremely shocked because Zhao Shaocheng, the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture, had just been transferred and the chief official was vacant. Wang Zhong, the young minister, was in charge of the daily affairs of Jingzhao Prefecture and acted as the prefect of the prefect.
After asking the group, Wang Zhong felt that the matter was serious, so he quickly wrote the memorial and hurried into the palace to ask for a meeting with Zhao Xun.
"I have asked clearly that the reasons for the matter are written in the memorial. Please preview the emperor."
Wang Zhong took out the memorial and handed it over. Xiao Lezi walked down and took it over.
Zhao Xun asked in confusion: "Who is Chengqun? I have never heard of this person's name."
Prime Minister Xie Shiyuan said indifferently: "Chengqun is Cheng Xisi's eldest son."
Cheng Xisi's son? Why did he suddenly come to Fengjing?
Zhao Xun took the memorial in confusion, then expanded it and looked at it. As he looked, Zhao Xun's face suddenly became extremely gloomy.
Cheng Xisi had actually been ill-hearted and secretly colluded with many local military generals with military power. His ambition was obvious, and Cheng Qun even said something, a very important thing, that is, Cheng Xisi and Shi Hu had secretly become sworn brothers and were alliances with each other a few years ago. The death of Wei Wennan, the governor of Qianzhou, was the joint plot between Shi Hu and Cheng Xisi, and the person who took action was also lent to Shi Hu. There were not many people, only one hundred people.
Before Cheng Xisi launched a rebellion, Shi Hu had promised him that if Zhao Bo'an led the troops from Jiangnan to the north, he would lead a large army into Jiangnan and restrain Zhao Bo'an from behind. After the matter was completed, the two of them would become allies, and they would hold their own troops in the territory and become princes.
"Master, what happened?"
Li Xun asked out loud.
Zhao Xun handed the memorial to Xiao Lezi and said silently: "You all take a look."
Shi Hu was the one who benefited the most from the death of Wei Wennan, the governor of Qianzhou. Judging from the series of actions of Shi Hu after Wei Wennan's death, he was the most suspicious. Although Shi Hu gave a very sufficient and perfect reason, the excuse is an excuse and cannot cover up the root of the matter.
But in the end, Zhao Xun chose to downplay the matter. This did not mean that Wei Wennan's death had nothing to do with Shi Hu, nor did Zhao Xun believe Shi Hu, but that he did not have the energy to deal with Shi Hu now. Zhao Xun just wanted to put this matter aside and then make plans.
Now, Chengqun has explained everything. Wei Wennan is the murder of Cheng Xisi and Shi Hu. Wei Wennan has always been loyal to the country and Zhao Zhi. In his later years, he voluntarily gave up military power and the rights in his hands. This is simply a role model. As an emperor, he should write a lot about such a minister and introduce it to everyone in the world to learn and admire.
After the incident of Wei Wennan, Zhao Xun chose to downplay and make big things smaller, and has been criticized and discussed by many people. Now that the truth is revealed, it is undoubtedly a big blow to Zhao Xun's emperor majesty.
Li Xun was watching the memorial, and some ministers surrounded him.
After reading the memorial, Xie Shiyuan immediately said angrily: "Shihu is simply worse than a beast. He is a first-class citizen and cannot eat. If it weren't for Wei Wennan's support, how could he be today?"
He Zhongkai sneered at Chen Hu: "Mr. Chen was passionate that day, but now the truth is revealed, but I don't know what I should feel in my heart?"
Chen Hu looked at He Zhongkai coldly: "Is this a hindsight in He Xiangguo?"
Both of them looked at each other coldly. Some things have become more and more obvious today. The nine prime ministers of the Political Affairs Hall are already full, and some people want to take up the throne, so they must pull one person down.
Li Xun walked up to Li Zhong and gave him the memorial.
After reading the memorial, Li Zhong remained silent. He had persuaded Zhao Xun for some things, but unfortunately the emperor refused to listen. What should he do?
Zhao Xun asked Li Zhong: "Li Xiangguo, you have always been famous for your military achievements. I don't know what you think about this?"
Li Zhong looked at Zhao Xun and said in a deep voice: "Order Kou Xiong not to go to Jinyang, and lead the army to the Jiangnan area immediately, join forces with Zhao Bo'an, gather troops, and make plans."
Zhao Xun frowned slightly. This was a little too fast, right? He wasn't mentally prepared yet.
Chen Hu spoke out and said, "This is too radical. You might as well press this matter. Don't know about it for the time being, secretly mobilize troops and gather strength, and then suddenly launch an attack, catch Shi Hu off guard, so that he can achieve his full results in one battle."
Chen Hu's suggestion was approved by the vast majority of people. Even Li Xun thought that what he said was reasonable. Kou Xiong took the army directly to Jiangnan with his intention was too obvious. In this way, Shi Hu would undoubtedly rebel. The court did not make arrangements and plans in advance, so it was indeed a bit rash and radical.
Zhao Xun looked at Li Zhong, who remained silent.
Seeing this, Zhao Xun nodded and agreed with Chen Hu's opinion.
"Uncle Li, you seem to have nothing to say just now?"
Li Xun followed Li Zhong and asked softly.
Li Zhong said silently: "No matter what kind of response the court makes, Shi Hu will definitely rebel and will act soon."
"What does Uncle Li mean?" Li Xun didn't understand Li Zhong's meaning.
Li Zhong stopped, looked at Li Xun, and sneered: "The whole group has already revealed it. This news may soon reach Shi Hu's ears. What do you think Shi Hu will react?"
Li Xun's eyes inadvertently looked at the other ministers who left. Li Zhong's words were very clear. Someone would secretly inform Shi Hu. No wonder Zhao Xun asked Li Zhong with his eyes, but Li Zhong was silent. Indeed, he would never say such words. If he said this, he would offend everyone present.
