Back to the Song Dynasty as a tyrant

"However, people are greedy. This Zhang Lu may have been instigated by someone to deliberately frame Han Shuai."

"Who dares to deliberately frame Han Shizhong at this time?"

"Your Majesty, Shuai Han has blocked many people's way of making money, and..." Gao Qiu hesitated to speak.

"And what, just say what you have to say, don't hesitate!"

"Besides, His Royal Highness Qi made great achievements in Liaodong. To deal with Han Shuai is to deal with His Highness Qi. His Highness Qi offended many people before, and many people are unwilling to see His Highness Qi again..."

As Gao Qiu spoke, he secretly glanced at the expression on Zhao Guanjia's face.

As long as Zhao Guanjia's expression changed slightly, he would immediately change his tone.

So, it is a science to serve the emperor.

"go on."

Chapter 655 The Master Behind the scenes (Part [-])

"Replacing Han Shuai, the trustworthy Jing Lue Shuai may not be able to cooperate well with King Qi."

Zhao Ning said: "You mean, on the surface it is aimed at Han Shizhong, but it is actually aimed at King Qi?"

"It's possible."

Zhao Ning thought to himself, the current situation is really interesting.

No wonder it is said that the game of power is full of intrigue and murder.

King Qi is a deposed prince, and he had no chance to stand up.

But now that he has made contributions, and has stayed in Liaodong for a long time, a new power center will inevitably be formed.

What Gao Qiu said is correct, it is really possible that behind this is targeting King Qi.

But Gao Taiwei is definitely not as harmless as he appears on the surface.

The underlying meaning of what he said was that Han Shizhong and King Qi cooperated very well, so he almost told Zhao Guanjia that King Qi was restless in Liaodong and had close contacts with Marshal Jinglue.

This is definitely a taboo for the suspicious emperor.

Therefore, it seems that Gao Qiu is speaking for King Qi, but in fact, he is making Zhao Ning more suspicious of King Qi from another level.

Zhao Ning sighed in his heart, he only blamed that silly boy for offending too many people, even someone like Gao Lian who had no ambitions.

Zhao Ning looked indifferent, as if he didn't understand the other meaning of Gao Qiu's words.

He said: "The king of Qi deserves to be rewarded for his meritorious service. How do you think it is more reasonable to reward?"

Gao Qiu didn't expect Zhao Guan's family to say such a word suddenly.

This fucking pig can tell that Zhao Guan's family wants to promote King Qi regardless of past suspicions.

Taiwei Gao's heart sank, and he remembered the days when King Qi saw him as unhappy.

Gao Qiu actually doesn't like Zhao Chen either, who would like someone who hates him?

But Gao Qiu is different from Qin Hui, Gao Qiu has no pursuit of power.

He doesn't form gangs too much, he is like a mollusk dangling between Tokyo City and the imperial palace every day, except for kicking and kicking, he just wholeheartedly accompany Zhao Guanjia and laugh.

Whatever Zhao Guanjia wants to do, he will do.

If it was Qin Hui, on the surface he would agree to Zhao Guanjia's proposal, but in private he might oppose it.

This is the difference between ambitious and unambitious people.

Moreover, Gao Qiu also read another meaning from Zhao Guan's family's handling of King Qi: promoting King Qi is digging an extra hole for Qin Hui.

Gao Qiu immediately began to think: It seems that the relationship with King Qi must be improved.

"Captain Gao?"

Gao Qiu came back to his senses from Zhao Guan's voice, and immediately said: "Your Majesty, I feel that this Liaodong now has a basic board, and it should be upgraded to a higher level, and Liaodong should be promoted to Andong. Protectorate, so that we can handle Liaodong affairs more effectively without being restrained by the rear.”

"What does this have to do with King Qi?"

"The king of Qi can be promoted as the chief protector."

"King Qi was promoted to be the chief protector, can he win everyone's hearts?"

"King Qi has made great contributions, so we should give him some chances. If he can't serve as the Chief Protector in the future, it's fine to remove him."

Zhao Ning nodded and said with a smile: "You said this. If he can't afford it in the future, I will trouble you."

ah!Your Majesty, aren't you bullying honest people!

Zhao Ning said loudly to the outside: "Preach my will, Han Shizhong has meritorious service, and established the Anton Governor's Mansion, and Han Shizhong Jin Andong's Governor's Mansion is the Guard, and he is in charge of all affairs in Anton."

Wang Huaiji hurried in: "Yes."

After speaking, he took the token of Zhao Guan's family and went to Zhongshu Province.

"Gao Qiu."

"The minister is here."

"About this Qingzhou case, you will investigate it temporarily when you come here. If you want to investigate thoroughly, you must not tolerate it!"

"The minister leads the order!"

The investigation of this matter will involve many yamen.

For example, the administrative, judicial, and transshipment departments of Jingdong East Road require the participation of officials from the Su Provincial People's Court, the Ministry of Households, and the Audit Office.

And because it involves the military administration, people from the military governor's office are needed to join in.

For such a complicated case, the level of the person in charge should naturally not be low, and he must have the prestige that can mobilize the prestige of various yamen.

Although Gao Taiwei has no real power, no one knows that he is a dog of Zhao Guan's family... oh no, he is a celebrity around Zhao Guan's family.

It is most appropriate for him to do it.

And the most important point is that the mastermind behind this scene may be someone Gao Lian hates, and Gao Lian can handle it properly.

On the 25th of the first lunar month, after the decree on the establishment of the Andong Protectorate in Liaodong was issued, it caused an uproar.

You know, some time ago, the imperial court was still hyping to increase troops in Liaodong.

The decree to establish the Protectorate's Office undoubtedly complemented the increase in troops.

The appointment of Han Shizhong as the Protector of the Protectorate of Andong caused great controversy.

On the evening of the [-]th day of the first lunar month, the snow in Qingzhou had not yet melted, but the official roads at dusk were quite lively.

Qilu is the place where silk clothes were spun in the Song Dynasty, and the business was prosperous.

Or go south along the canal, or take the Yellow River to the sea.

Not to mention that the news that the imperial court will increase troops to Liaodong and Koryo has been issued, and various places are preparing to mobilize the army and civilians to move eastward, and many businessmen have also heard of business opportunities.

A group of people in front rode horses and rushed towards Qingzhou City in the light snow at dusk.

"Imperial City Secretary is doing business, idlers and others stay away!"

The guard at the door was about to stop them, but after seeing the outfit, and hearing this, he hurriedly avoided.

He Bin led the people all the way to the transfer office quickly.

Just as the transfer envoy Zhang Kui was about to go home, he saw a group of people in brocade clothes and black boots at the door.

He froze for a moment.

He Bin looked at Zhang Que coldly, and asked, "May I ask if Zhang Sicao is here?"

"I am, is Your Excellency?"

"He Bin, Secretary of the Imperial City."

"It turned out to be Commander He, who has admired his name for a long time."

"We were ordered to investigate the Qingzhou grain expropriation case."

"Didn't the people from the Su Provincial Institute and the Ministry of Households come, and they also took it away to the capital."

"Now the Imperial City Division has the full authority to coordinate. May I ask where is the transfer degree Zhi He Jincai?"

"He's gone home, not long ago."

Zhang Kui arranged for someone to take He Bin to He Jincai's house.

When He Bin arrived, he found that He Jincai had hanged himself in his study.

He Bin immediately ordered people to start looking through the documents in He Jincai's study.

"I didn't find anything, just some of the most common books."

Afterwards, He Jincai's family members were questioned again, but nothing came out.

The clue is broken!

He Bin, who has worked in the Imperial City Division for many years, is keenly aware that this matter is not simple.

He organized people from the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Su Provincial People's Court to continue the review in Qingzhou, and at the same time wrote a report to Gao Qiu.

Of course, the strategy of Jingdong East Road made Zhang Kui the key object of inquiry.

On the first day of February, the temperature in Yanjing was obviously warming up, and the ice and snow began to melt.

The official road outside the city was full of traffic, and not far from the city gate, a group of people were watching the mansion on the city wall.

It is said that in the next month, the government of Yanjing will send a group of people to the countryside to investigate, with the focus on helping the farmers in the villages of Xijin Prefecture solve the problem of farm tools.

This is also a very important part of Zongwang's New Deal.

Zong Han arrived at the gate of Yanjing Economic Strategy Department.

Not long after, Zong Wang brought people out to greet him in person.

"Zhong Shuling, you should send someone to tell me in advance when you come to Yanjing."

Zong Han laughed loudly, patted Zong Wang on the shoulder, and said, "There is something important and you came in a hurry, so don't blame me."

"Don't you dare, please come inside."

Chapter 656 The Suffocating Official Zhao Family (Second)

During this extremely sensitive period, Zong Han's arrival in Yanjing caused a shock in the senior management of Yanjing.

Zongwang also knew that he was not a friendly person, but some conflicts cannot be intensified face to face.

"Zongwang, I came all the way here. Yanjing has a large population and is quite prosperous, thanks to you!"

"The Zhongshu Ling's words are serious. They are all serving the imperial court."

"By the way, do you know about Goryeo?"

"I received a military report from Liaoyang."

Zong Han deliberately asked: "What do you think of this matter?"

"The order of Zhongshu refers to the fact that Song Ting sent more troops to Goryeo?"

"Just be it."

"It is unlikely to increase troops, but it is very possible to increase the logistics army." Zong Wang said conservatively.

These Jin Guo entrepreneurs are not idiots. They have experienced the extermination of the Liao Dynasty and the Song Dynasty. How can they be so easy to fool?

But what Zong Wang said was still very conservative.

Because the smarter and full of wisdom a person is, the less he will speak up, and he will not arbitrarily judge something that he is not sure about.

"You mean that Song Ting also has the possibility of increasing troops?"

"Have."

"Where did the Zhao family increase their troops? Hebei? Or Hedong?"

"neither."

"That is?"

"Increase troops from Gyeonggi."

"Send more imperial guards from Zhao Guan's family?"

"We can't rule out this possibility." Zong Wang coughed, his eyes glowing with clarity, "We don't know much about the military defenses in other places except Song Ting's defenses in Hebei, Hedong, Shaanxi and Liaodong. "
