Chapter 48: Bound Tiger
At the Sun-Wang Riding Court Meeting, the King of Qin launched another atomic bomb. He presented a "evidence" of his co-operation with the enemy in public, and then argued that this was the Jurchens' counter-espionage plan, and wanted to avenge the defeat of his own hands that day. The court suddenly started to make a fuse. Some said that the King of Qin was walking straight, and this was the Jurchens' treacherous plan to frame the loyal and kind. But some people said that there was no wind and no waves, and flies could bite eggs without any cracks. Why did the Jurchens just come to the King of Qin...
After arguing for a long time, everyone had their own reasons, but there was no result in the end. Zhao Huan ordered the Censor Mi Guoting to thoroughly investigate the matter and then make a decision. The King of Qin was temporarily suspended in the mansion and waited for the result of the handling.
Chen Guoting was ordered to handle the case and first transferred the Jurchen spy captured by the King of Qin to the prison of the Ministry of Justice. However, the sender committed suicide that night. Another Jin envoy Xiao Zhonggong suddenly went crazy in the lobby and died of a pillar. Two living people died one after another, but the matter could not be investigated. How could Zhang Bangchang get angry at this time? Another powerful witness, Jin envoy Wang Wei, and others did not dare to arrest him without evidence, and the case went to a dead end.
But the matter must be concluded. Several leaders of the Censorate studied for a long time and agreed that the King of Qin was innocent. Not only did he capture the Jin spy who lobbed him, he also took the initiative to explain the matter. If there was something really wrong, who would put the shit on his head, and it was also a heinous crime of treason, unless he was really crazy. So several people jointly submitted the investigation results╠╠The King of Qin was not guilty…
"I asked you to be in charge of the troops of the three yamen and be responsible for the security of the ban. You actually let the Jin spies sneak into the capital to deliver the secret letter to the King of Qin. How did you feel bad?" In the Chuigong Hall, the uncle Wang Zongyi, who was kneeling a few times, Zhao Huan lost his temper, and fragments of porcelain were scattered on the ground, which was obviously a victim of his anger.
"Your Majesty is my fault, but I have done my best to do my best. The King of Qin's every move is under the surveillance of my ministers, but I really don't know how he got the secret letter!" Wang Zongyi was also very frustrated. He wanted to surround the Qin Palace, share the same bed with him, eat and sleep with him, but he still made mistakes. Since he received the emperor's instructions, all the major traffic roads in the capital have been set up to inspect, and the gates of the capital have been strictly investigated. He has not figured out how the messenger of the Jin people came in. He felt very wronged. He had always worked hard without any credit, but he was scolded by the emperor's nephew.
"I dare to argue. Since you have been surveilled strictly, why do you know nothing about the secret letter from the King of Qin and let him take him to the hall? I will definitely punish you for your misunderstanding!" Zhao Huan became even more angry and scolded loudly.
"As long as your Majesty can relieve his anger, he can punish the old ministers. Take care of the dragon body!" Wang Zongqi looked at his nephew's face ashen, obviously very angry. He quickly persuaded him and winked at Geng Nanzhong who was standing aside.
"Your Majesty calms down. Lord Wang is doing his best in his work, but there is a misunderstanding in the hundreds of secrets. Moreover, the King of Qin has always been cunning and is trying to attack the west. If he can succeed in the moment, he cannot blame him for the Lord Wang!" Geng Nanzhong curled his lips and went forward and said.
"Hmph, let's record it for now. There will be two crimes next time!" Zhao Huan sat down and said angrily, feeling helpless. The only relatives he could trust were left, and he could not lead troops as usual, in order to prevent foreign relatives from interfering in politics. In order to consolidate his throne, he could only use him. However, he was unsatisfied and his ability to do things was too poor, so he could not beat his precious brother.
"I'm not grateful to Your Majesty!" Geng Nanzhong knew that the emperor was relieved, so he stepped forward and helped Wang Zongqi up. He ordered the eunuch to clean up the ground quickly, and Wang Zongqi quickly thanked him and retreated aside.
"Oh, I wanted to use this matter to demote him to his post and destroy his reputation, but I didn't expect him to gain reputation again. It really annoyed me!" Zhao Heng sent two embroidery slams to let them sit down and sigh.
Zhao Qi gathered more than 100,000 troops in Hedong in ten days. Zhao Huan originally thought that he would respond to his calls in Hedong for a long time. He thought that only by transferring him from Hedong could destroy his foundation. He did not expect that he would still have such a great appeal in Hebei. Not only did he gather 70,000 or 80,000, but he could also make the guards listen to his orders. This made Zhao Huan restless day and night, worried that Zhao Qi would rebel, so he wanted to use the matter of collusion with the enemy to ruin him, but in the end he made him take the lead and put himself in his arms.
"Your Majesty, don't bother you. I think there seems to be no flaw in this matter, but the two Jin people died one after another and did not get anything from them. It must be that the King of Qin did something from it, so that they could not speak. He took the initiative to give up his head, because he was afraid that the matter would be exposed, and he was worried that the dragon power of His Majesty would come, so he had to come up with this bad strategy!" Geng Nanzhong said, "and this also shows that Your Majesty was wise. He found that he had bad intentions and immediately made a decision to transfer him back, and he first reached peace with the Jin people, and dismissed the righteous and brave men, so that there was no soldiers available in his hands. The Jurchens did not know the truth and still sent people to come, but the King of Qin was powerless."
"Well, I think so, then the incident of the head this time was a helpless act!" After hearing Geng Nanzhong's words, Zhao Huan's anger was slightly reduced and he felt a little proud.
"Yes, the King of Qin must have offended the Jurchens like this. I'm afraid he won't be thinking like this anymore. Although it's a good idea, it's a good result!" Geng Nanzhong said with a smile.
"It's just a pity that this great opportunity made him escape again, but if he doesn't get rid of it, I feel uneasy!" Zhao Huan nodded and said, but he always felt a little awkward.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. If you deal with the King of Qin now, your just-contributing contributions will inevitably arouse dissatisfaction among the court and the public, and will hurt Your Majesty's kindness. You should take it slowly!" Geng Nanzhong hurriedly advised.
"Well, but he is unruly and difficult to discipline. I am worried that something will happen again. Why not send him to Lingnan, a deserted mountain and remote place, and let him die for himself!" Zhao Huan said.
"Your Majesty is absolutely impossible. The King of Qin is different from others. He is very good at buying people's hearts. Although Lingnan is poor, the people are tough and brave and fierce. If he is attracted by his heart, it will be a big problem!" Geng Nanzhong sighed in his heart, how could the emperor remember to eat and not beat him? The ministers in the court wanted to "spread" him to the barbaric land in the northwest. Who would have thought that he would make such a big scene and let him go away, it would be like letting the tiger go back to the mountain.
"What about it?" Zhao Huan asked with a frown.
"Just keep it in a stable, monitor what it does, cut off its contacts, shovel its foundation; give it beautiful women gold and silk to destroy its ambitions; reward the fields, houses, and nostalgia, destroy its aura! Over time, a wild tiger can be called a tiger without its minions?" Geng Nanzhong said with a smile.
"Well, then according to my dear, let him live his life!" Zhao Huan nodded with satisfaction. The trick of killing people with a soft knife is good...
