The news sent back by the storm was far beyond Murong Fu's expectation!
No chickens or dogs were left in Yanziwu, Murong Bo himself disappeared, and the Huanshi Shui Pavilion, which had collected countless martial arts cheats, was also burned to the ground.In addition, the tombs of Murong's ancestors were exhumed, and the bones and funerary objects were thrown all over the place!
In Chinese traditional culture, worshiping ancestors is an extremely important link.Whenever there are festivals, people who have the conditions have to worship their ancestors, otherwise they will be regarded by the world as a wolf-hearted dog who has forgotten their ancestors, and they will be reviled and excluded, and it is impossible to survive.It is precisely because of this traditional custom that digging people's ancestral graves has always been regarded as an extremely immoral and despicable thing.Whoever does this kind of thing too often has forged an enmity with others that cannot be resolved for a lifetime.Therefore, as soon as the news that the Murong family's ancestral grave was dug up, Bao BuTong immediately blushed with red eyes and burst into anger, clamoring to destroy Xiao Feng's nine clans.
Murong Fu came from time travel, he really has no feelings for the ancestors of the Murong family.Seeing that Bao Budong greeted Xiao Feng's whole family with obscene words, even the always gentle Abi blushed and gritted his teeth, he couldn't help but murmured: "This is not what Big Brother meant..."
"My lord!" Bao BuTong growled in grief, "It's already this time, and you're still protecting him!"
Murong Fu was taken aback by Bao BuTong's roar, and he didn't dare to speak.After a while, Murong Fu seemed to have thought of something important, and exclaimed: "What's in those funeral objects?!"
As soon as Murong Fu said this, there was a deathly silence in the study.The Gusu Murong family has only had one dream for hundreds of years—the Spring and Autumn Dream of Xingfu Dayan!For hundreds of years, the torch has been passed down from generation to generation, and Murong Bo has dedicated his whole life to this emperor's dream, and the ancestors of the Murong family are not bad.Will the wish that cannot be fulfilled during life leave any traces after death?But now, Murong Fu is an official and a first-rank official with great power in his hands, truly one person under one person and above ten thousand people.If these traces are publicized, what kind of uproar will it cause?
Seeing Murong Fu clutching his heart and staggering back to the seat, Bao BuTong and A Bi hurried forward and shouted: "My lord!" His face was blue, his lips were slightly purple, and he was panting unsteadily, obviously he had committed a crime. heart disease.
"Abi, hurry up and invite Doctor Xue!" Bao Budong called again and again.
"Not busy!" Murong Fu only supported the table with one hand and panted hard, uttering words with difficulty. "Business matters!"
"Son..."
Abi is still waiting to persuade, Murong Fu has already insisted on giving orders word by word. "Fourth Brother Chuanling Feng, repair the tomb as soon as possible, and arrange for a skeleton to be buried in Murong Bo's tomb. No word of what happened in Yanziwu can be spread! Put us in the Song Dynasty and the Liao Kingdom. All the spies are dispersed, and all printing workshops are closely monitored, and any words related to the Murong family are destroyed on the spot! In addition, people are sent to search for Murong Bo's whereabouts, regardless of life or death!"
"My lord, do you want to invite Master Zhuge?" Abi asked hastily.
Murong Fu pondered for a while, and finally shook his head slowly. "He shouldn't know about this! As long as he doesn't know, there will still be changes..." Since the establishment of Zhuge Zhengwo's six doors, he has been directly responsible to the Zhao family, and he must not know the secret of the Murong family's restoration. Otherwise, he also had a different heart.
After many years, Bao BuTong is no longer the ignorant and reckless man who can boast about the secret of Murong's revival anytime and anywhere.Seeing that Murong Fu vetoed Abi's suggestion, he hastily added another sentence: "My lord, do you want to make Taishan ready?"
"What are you preparing for?" Murong Fu still shook his head, "If it's a false alarm, it's fine, if...any movement in Murong's mansion is living evidence of crime!"
"Brother..." Bao BuTong asked again tentatively.
I saw Murong Fu was silent for a while, then replied in a low voice: "Being a teacher can keep him..."
Hearing the words, Bao BuTong felt his heart drop suddenly, and after a long time, he asked tentatively, "Didn't the young master ever think that this might be an opportunity?" Bao BuTong was essentially a kind-hearted Jianghu person after all. Zai's plan to restore the country obviously made him very impatient.Therefore, it is self-evident what opportunity this question refers to.
Murong Fu didn't answer any more, just closed his eyes and covered his heart and kept panting, the cold sweat soaked his inner clothes very quickly.After a while, Xue Muhua arrived after hearing the news, and Bao Tong did not have the chance to speak again.
However, Murong Fu's various arrangements were still one step too late.In the late April of the third year of Shaosheng, Cai Jing, who was reinstated by the imperial court as Minister of Rites, returned to Beijing early. When he met Sheng, he took out a suicide note written by Murong Fu's grandfather Murong Bi, as well as several seals and parts of Murong's ancestors. Violation of funeral objects.When Zhao Xu saw the suicide note, he immediately became furious and ordered Murong Fu to enter the palace to have an audience overnight.
Just before entering Funing Palace, Murong Fu hadn't had time to meet with Shi Li, Zhao Xu, who was filled with anger, smashed Murong's suicide note together with all the scattered physical evidence at his head and face. "Murong Fu! You are so brave, you dare to seek to usurp the throne? I want to kill your nine clans!"
Murong Fu knelt down immediately when he heard the words, and said in his mouth: "Calm down the anger of the officials! I have always only known to be loyal and loyal to the emperor, I have never thought of this!"
"Murong Fu, the evidence is solid, and you still want to deny it?" Zhao Xu asked in a dark voice, pointing to the evidence on the ground.I saw his distorted face, which was both angry and proud.
Murong Fu then picked up the things on the ground and quickly looked through them, and things really happened as he expected.Murong Bi's suicide note enumerated the scenery of his ancestors, and he blamed himself for not recovering Dayan in his lifetime, and he was ashamed of his ancestors.As for the few private seals, most of them were engraved with names such as "Remains of the Old Country" and "Old Yan King and Sun".Murong Fu also had nothing to say about the Murong family's obsession in the past, but right now he obviously couldn't admit it even if he was beaten to death.After seeing these "criminal evidence", Murong Fu immediately kowtowed repeatedly, and cried out in pain: "This humble minister is wronged! Great wronged!"
"Oh? Where are you wronged?" It was the first time Zhao Xu saw Murong Fu lose his composure like this, and he was very pleased with himself. He actually forgot his whole-hearted plan to capture him and put him in prison.
"It's true that my grandfather kept his pen in the official family. However, my ancestor passed away many years ago, and I have never seen this suicide note. I don't know where the official family got it?" Murong Fu hurriedly got up to defend himself To defend, I saw that his complexion was pale but his forehead was slightly red and swollen, and he looked rather weak. "There is also this seal and other things, which I have never seen. This must be someone who framed this minister. The officials should not be trusted!"
After Murong Fu finished speaking, Cai Jing, who was standing by the side, hurriedly knelt down on the ground, shouting for grievances: "Officials, I have no grievances with Murong Xiang, how could I come to frame him?"
Cai Jing automatically jumped out to bear the gunfire, Murong Fu immediately raised his voice and asked: "So, dare to ask Mr. Cai, where did you get these things?"
Naturally, these criminal evidences were sent to Cai Jing by Yelu Yixin, with the purpose of presenting them to Zhao Xu through Cai Jing's hand, to eradicate Murong Fu.But Cai Jing obviously couldn't tell Zhao Xu frankly, otherwise it would be tantamount to him admitting to colluding with Khitan. "This...it was given to Weichen by a righteous man on the way back to Beijing."
"I don't know where this righteous man is now?" Murong Fu hurriedly asked.
"After this person handed over these evidences to Weichen, he has fled far away, and he has never been seen again." Since this righteous man is illusory, Cai Jing can only answer like this.
Murong Fu heard the words but only sneered. "Without any witnesses, you dare to frame this official based on these untrue physical evidence! Cai Yuanchang, you are so courageous!"
Cai Jing knew very well that Murong Fu was in power, and even Zhao Xu had to be afraid, how could he dare to offend him so easily?However, it turns out that what the emperor's family fears most is someone spying on their throne.Murong Fu violated such a big taboo, even if he can't prove it in the end, he will definitely be rejected by the royal family.As long as Murong Fu is brought down, Cai Jing is confident that no one in the Shu Party will be his opponent, so he will give it a go. "The righteous man himself said that the evidence of these crimes all came from Murong Xiang's ancestral tomb. Whether it is true or not, the government only needs to send someone to check it, and everything will naturally come to light!"
As soon as Cai Jing said this, before Zhao Xu could express anything, Murong Fu was already furious and immediately stood up and glared at Cai Jing, saying, "Cai Yuanchang! How did I offend you, and asked you to deliberately frame me, even I Your ancestors and ancestors also don't want to let go?"
Even Zhao Xu felt that digging someone's ancestral grave was too heavy-handed, so he couldn't help shaking his head secretly.Thinking about it again, what he just took was a funerary object from someone else's tomb, which made his hair stand on end, and he couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise: "Cai Yuanchang, so these criminal evidence..."
Before Zhao Xu could finish his sentence, Murong Fu understood and comforted him: "Don't worry, the officials, the tombs of my minister's ancestors are regularly taken care of, and they are still intact. These things are just deliberately forged by someone with a heart to frame this minister!"
Although Zhao Xu was deeply jealous of Murong Fu, he always knew that Murong Fu was reliable.With his soothing words, Zhao Xu calmed down immediately.
Seeing the interaction between the two, Cai Jing was also secretly startled.I think that although Cai Jing has been demoted from office for many years, he has never extinguished his desire to fight in the officialdom.These years, he has watched the Shu party governing with a cold eye. Although he has made a lot of achievements, Zhao Xu's rewards and rewards for Murong Fu are very few, and it is really hard to match his achievements.With his usual political sensitivity, Cai Jing could tell at a glance that Zhao Xu couldn't help but dislike Murong Fu.In today's face-to-face meeting, he only tried a little bit, and Zhao Xu expressed his dislike for Murong Fu, and even vaguely hoped that Cai Jing could relieve the worries of Jun father and bring down Murong Fu.It can be said that, if Zhao Xu hadn't encouraged him, Cai Jing would not have shown this evidence as soon as he returned to Beijing.However, Cai Jing never expected that although Zhao Xu was afraid of Murong Fu, at the same time he trusted him so much.The trust that came from the enemy undoubtedly proved the great strength of this person.Cai Jing only felt his heart skip a beat, he instinctively realized that the relationship between him and Murong Fu might be endless!Thinking of this, he immediately kowtowed again, and said in a loud voice: "Officials, the matter is of great importance! Your Excellency, please search the Murong Prime Minister's Mansion!"
"Presumptuous!" Murong Fu angrily reprimanded how could he suffer such humiliation as the left minister. "Cai Yuanchang, what is your intention?"
Cai Jing glanced sideways at Murong Fu, and replied meaningfully: "Lord Murong, those who are clean will be cleared themselves!"
This time, even Zhao Xu stood back. "Murong Qing, you resist so much, but do you have a ghost in your heart?"
Unexpectedly, Zhao Xu's words struck Yu Murong Fu like a bolt from the blue.I saw him looking at Zhao Xu in disbelief, with surprise, anger, sadness, and self-deprecating emotions in his eyes, and finally he smiled, so he slowly lifted his robe and knelt down and said decisively: "This minister was born in Yuanfeng. The first emperor hand-picked Tanhua. For more than ten years, he has been deeply favored by the Emperor of He, so he has today. The humble minister is obtuse, but he serves the official family with loyalty and prudence. Unexpected...Unexpected...Since this is the case, the humble minister has nothing to say, please the official family Let me die!"
"Do you think I dare not?" Zhao Xu deeply hated Murong Fu for taking his power, so naturally he would not be threatened by Murong Fu.
Seeing the stalemate, the Empress Dowager rushed in at this moment and asked loudly, "Who are the officials going to punish?"
Seeing Empress Dowager Xiang suddenly appear, Murong Fu and Cai Jing couldn't help but sigh at the same time.The only difference is that one lamented getting away with luck, while the other lamented that the general situation was over.
Sure enough, as soon as the Empress Dowager arrived, she asked the maid beside her to hand over the "criminal evidence" to her for review. "Ai's family heard that the officials suspected that Murong Xiang was rebellious?" She glanced at Murong Bi's suicide note and sneered, then casually threw it aside. "Just based on this letter written by someone who doesn't know, the officials are convinced that they will break their legs?"
"Queen Mother, the ancestor of Murong Fu's family is Murong Bi!" Seeing that the Queen Mother favored Murong Fu, Zhao Xu naturally refused to accept it.
The Empress Dowager Xiang didn't care about it, and just replied casually: "Murong Qing is the left minister, and his family background is unknown to everyone in the world. How difficult is it for someone to forge letters in the name of Murong Pen? Has the official checked it before?" Is this written by Murong Bi himself?"
Zhao Xu choked when he heard the words, and Cai Jing hurriedly added a sentence when he saw this: "I will report to the Empress Dowager, as long as I search Murong Prime Minister's mansion to verify the authenticity..."
"Frivolous!" Unexpectedly, before he could finish speaking, the Empress Dowager Xiang's complexion turned frosty, and she sternly reprimanded her. "Is this the way my Zhao family treats loyal officials and officials? Besides, Murong Qing is on the left, how can he be contemptuous?"
After all, the relationship between the monarch and ministers in the Song Dynasty was not as good as that in the Qing Dynasty. At the beginning of the founding of the country, Emperor Taizu said that "rule the world with the scholar-bureaucrats."Therefore, the relationship between Zhao Xu and Murong Fu is that of partners, not master and slave.As for the position of prime minister, it is even more expensive to be the king of the upper class, the lower class of An Lishu, the ministers to avoid the way, and the etiquette of all bureaucrats.
Only relying on this "criminal evidence", which is not true or false, can Zhao Xu search the residence of the current Prime Minister?Obviously not!Can Murong Fu be given death?Even more impossible!On the contrary, with Murong Fu being so violent, Zhao Xu could only comfort him.Otherwise, if he kills himself and proves his innocence, the literati and bureaucrats will band together to avenge him, and then Zhao Xu will have no choice but to abdicate to appease the hearts of the people of the world.It was only after Zhao Xu had to remind the Queen Mother that he realized that the Murong Fu in front of him was definitely not the Su Shi of the past. He could be allowed to make Zhao Xu just like the late emperor dealt with Su Shi. .He was silent for a while, and finally said sadly: "Murong Qing doesn't have to be like this..."
Unexpectedly, Zhao Xu had only spoken half a sentence, and Murong Fu interrupted him forcefully with a look of lovelessness. "Officials, when Fan Xiang presided over the reform of the administration of officials, if there is real evidence to prove that hundreds of officials are guilty, all civil and military officials should be resigned and tried. Since the humble minister is suspected of treason, please remove the humble minister from the position of Zuoxiang and hand it over to the Secretary. Interrogate, set the record straight!"
To be honest, Murong Fu's suggestion really won Zhao Xu's heart.It's a pity that Zhao Xu knows the elegant meaning after hearing the string song, and knows that the most important thing to throw Murong Fu into prison is the word "true evidence".However, the various evidences submitted by Cai Jing cannot be called "true evidence" before they have been verified to be true or false.And since Murong Fu is not afraid, the authenticity of these "criminal evidence" is probably very little.
Zhao Xuzheng didn't know how to answer, so the Empress Dowager Xiang smiled and comforted him: "Murong Qing, your loyalty is well known in the world." Although the Empress Dowager Xiang was informed by Zhuge Zhengwo, she came to rescue Murong Fu, but her loyalty to Murong Fu But he is convinced.
Youxiang came forward to appease the Queen Mother, but Murong Fu was also well-behaved.Seeing that he glanced at Cai Jing resentfully, he bowed down and said in a low voice: "I implore the Queen Mother and the officials and ministers to take leave of absence. Before proving the innocence of the humble ministers, I will never dare to see the Supreme Being again."
Now the whole court is full of Murong Fu's cronies, as long as he hints, the whole court can stop working.How could the Empress Dowager allow him to ask for leave like this, and said coldly: "Officials, Mr. Cai just returned to Beijing to frame the Prime Minister for selfish purposes and shake up the government. Is it the way to be a minister?"
As soon as the Empress Dowager said this, Cai Jing was out of his wits, and hurriedly threw himself on the ground and kowtowed: "Officials, my ministers are loyal! Loyal..."
Zhao Xu naturally knew Cai Jing's loyalty, but at this time, Zhao Xu had no choice but to let down this "loyal minister". "The order is to hand over Cai Yuanchang and these physical evidences to Dali Temple, and we will deal with them after the authenticity is verified."
Today's Dali Temple Minister Fan Chun is the fourth younger brother of the former leftist Fan Chunren. Although he is not a member of the Shu Party, he is close to the Shu Party. Once these material evidences are handed over to Dali Temple, what will happen? "Officials! Officials..." Cai Jing was still waiting to intercede, but before he could speak, he was dragged out by the palace guards.
From then on, Murong Fu was finally satisfied, and showed his loyalty to Queen Mother Xiang and Zhao Xu, and then he resigned and left.
The author has something to say:
Director: Mr. Murong, although I also understand that children who will make trouble have candy to eat.But have you ever thought about it, if the queen mother does not arrive in time...
Murong: Touch the pillars and touch the porcelain!
Director: What if Cai Jing launches an attack on the court?
Murong: Hehe!Then I don't have to do it myself!
Zhao Xu: Traitor!Traitor!
No chickens or dogs were left in Yanziwu, Murong Bo himself disappeared, and the Huanshi Shui Pavilion, which had collected countless martial arts cheats, was also burned to the ground.In addition, the tombs of Murong's ancestors were exhumed, and the bones and funerary objects were thrown all over the place!
In Chinese traditional culture, worshiping ancestors is an extremely important link.Whenever there are festivals, people who have the conditions have to worship their ancestors, otherwise they will be regarded by the world as a wolf-hearted dog who has forgotten their ancestors, and they will be reviled and excluded, and it is impossible to survive.It is precisely because of this traditional custom that digging people's ancestral graves has always been regarded as an extremely immoral and despicable thing.Whoever does this kind of thing too often has forged an enmity with others that cannot be resolved for a lifetime.Therefore, as soon as the news that the Murong family's ancestral grave was dug up, Bao BuTong immediately blushed with red eyes and burst into anger, clamoring to destroy Xiao Feng's nine clans.

Abi is still waiting to persuade, Murong Fu has already insisted on giving orders word by word. "Fourth Brother Chuanling Feng, repair the tomb as soon as possible, and arrange for a skeleton to be buried in Murong Bo's tomb. No word of what happened in Yanziwu can be spread!

"Frivolous!" Unexpectedly, before he could finish speaking, the Empress Dowager Xiang's complexion turned frosty, and she sternly reprimanded her. "Is this the way my Zhao family treats loyal officials and officials? Besides, Murong Qing is on the left, how can he be contemptuous?"
After all, the relationship between the monarch and ministers in the Song Dynasty was not as good as that in the Qing Dynasty. At the beginning of the founding of the country, Emperor Taizu said that "rule the world with the scholar-bureaucrats."Therefore, the relationship between Zhao Xu and Murong Fu is that of partners, not master and slave.As for the position of prime minister, it is even more expensive to be the king of the upper class, the lower class of An Lishu, the ministers to avoid the way, and the etiquette of all bureaucrats.
Only relying on this "criminal evidence", which is not true or false, can Zhao Xu search the residence of the current Prime Minister?Obviously not!Can Murong Fu be given death?Even more impossible!On the contrary, with Murong Fu being so violent, Zhao Xu could only comfort him.Otherwise, if he kills himself and proves his innocence, the literati and bureaucrats will band together to avenge him, and then Zhao Xu will have no choice but to abdicate to appease the hearts of the people of the world.It was only after Zhao Xu had to remind the Queen Mother that he realized that the Murong Fu in front of him was definitely not the Su Shi of the past. He could be allowed to make Zhao Xu just like the late emperor dealt with Su Shi. .He was silent for a while, and finally said sadly: "Murong Qing doesn't have to be like this..."
Unexpectedly, Zhao Xu had only spoken half a sentence, and Murong Fu interrupted him forcefully with a look of lovelessness. "Officials, when Fan Xiang presided over the reform of the administration of officials, if there is real evidence to prove that hundreds of officials are guilty, all civil and military officials should be resigned and tried. Since the humble minister is suspected of treason, please remove the humble minister from the position of Zuoxiang and hand it over to the Secretary. Interrogate, set the record straight!"
To be honest, Murong Fu's suggestion really won Zhao Xu's heart.It's a pity that Zhao Xu knows the elegant meaning after hearing the string song, and knows that the most important thing to throw Murong Fu into prison is the word "true evidence".However, the various evidences submitted by Cai Jing cannot be called "true evidence" before they have been verified to be true or false.And since Murong Fu is not afraid, the authenticity of these "criminal evidence" is probably very little.
Zhao Xuzheng didn't know how to answer, so the Empress Dowager Xiang smiled and comforted him: "Murong Qing, your loyalty is well known in the world." Although the Empress Dowager Xiang was informed by Zhuge Zhengwo, she came to rescue Murong Fu, but her loyalty to Murong Fu But he is convinced.
Youxiang came forward to appease the Queen Mother, but Murong Fu was also well-behaved.Seeing that he glanced at Cai Jing resentfully, he bowed down and said in a low voice: "I implore the Queen Mother and the officials and ministers to take leave of absence. Before proving the innocence of the humble ministers, I will never dare to see the Supreme Being again."
Now the whole court is full of Murong Fu's cronies, as long as he hints, the whole court can stop working.How could the Empress Dowager allow him to ask for leave like this, and said coldly: "Officials, Mr. Cai just returned to Beijing to frame the Prime Minister for selfish purposes and shake up the government. Is it the way to be a minister?"
As soon as the Empress Dowager said this, Cai Jing was out of his wits, and hurriedly threw himself on the ground and kowtowed: "Officials, my ministers are loyal! Loyal..."
Zhao Xu naturally knew Cai Jing's loyalty, but at this time, Zhao Xu had no choice but to let down this "loyal minister". "The order is to hand over Cai Yuanchang and these physical evidences to Dali Temple, and we will deal with them after the authenticity is verified."
Today's Dali Temple Minister Fan Chun is the fourth younger brother of the former leftist Fan Chunren. Although he is not a member of the Shu Party, he is close to the Shu Party. Once these material evidences are handed over to Dali Temple, what will happen? "Officials! Officials..." Cai Jing was still waiting to intercede, but before he could speak, he was dragged out by the palace guards.
From then on, Murong Fu was finally satisfied, and showed his loyalty to Queen Mother Xiang and Zhao Xu, and then he resigned and left.
The author has something to say:
Director: Mr. Murong, although I also understand that children who will make trouble have candy to eat.But have you ever thought about it, if the queen mother does not arrive in time...
Murong: Touch the pillars and touch the porcelain!
Director: What if Cai Jing launches an attack on the court?
Murong: Hehe!Then I don't have to do it myself!
Zhao Xu: Traitor!Traitor!
