The emperor is embarrassed

Spring is cold.

What's more, this is in the northwest, and a spring snow has not yet melted away, and there is still snow on the treetops on the roof.

What's more, the westerly wind is tight in the middle of the night.

Shao Fanning was only wearing a quilted official uniform, not even a big fur, but he was already sweating profusely, his face was pale, and he was allowed to go to the main hall of the general's mansion with the soldiers leading the way.

Just as Shao Fanning stepped into the entrance of the main hall, his pale face instantly turned pale.

In the main hall, the lights are bright.

At this time, Shao Fanning originally thought that Song Yaoding had already rested.And at this time, he came quietly, also with the intention of covering up his appearance.Unexpectedly, in the main hall, Song Yao, Zhao Lingyan, Jiang Wen'an, Lu Wentao, and Shao Fanning's friend of the same year, Datong Yushi, were all seated there.

Song Yao was dressed in silver armor and sat on the top seat. When he saw Shao Fanning, Song Yao asked, "Master Shao, what happened to the fight on Changrong Street?"

Seeing the situation in the central hall, Shao Fanning knew that Song Yao was waiting for him to enter the urn.It's just that now, he wants to defend himself, but in front of Song Yao who has different political views, what result can he achieve?Shao Fanning's mouth was full of bitterness, and after all he was somewhat masculine. He said in a deep voice, "Your official has sent yamen soldiers and yamen servants to go there. By night, 13 people were wrongly wounded to death. The casualties of other civilians have not yet been counted. Limited, General Song please send troops to quell the chaos."

Song Yao has already ordered the deputy general to be ordered, and it is no problem to send troops at this time.

Shao Fanning also wanted to follow along, but was stopped by Zhao Lingyan.Zhao Lingyan questioned Shao Fanning in a cold voice, "With Deputy General Niu here, the danger in Changrong Street can be resolved. Master Shao need not worry. However, the general has already known about the matter of Changrong Street, and sent people to question Master Shao three times. Master Shao He categorically rejected General Song's wishes, and now that the matter has come to an end, Master Shao, as the parents of a city, how will he explain to the dead and injured people? How will he explain to the yamen servant who died in the line of duty? How will he explain to the Long Live God of the imperial capital?"

Mr. Zhao looked upright, and asked aggressively, "Accordingly, internal affairs have nothing to do with military affairs. It's just that Datong City has just been restored and rebuilt, and such a shocking murder happened. This officer is really heartbroken!"

Don't look at Zhao Lingyan's face of five people and six people, when he learned that the Heping Gang and the Four Seas Gang were fighting, he knew the opportunity had come!Zhao Lingyan himself despises Shao Fanning's character, and it is the Four Seas Gang that has repeatedly troubled them before, and it is said that he has the background of the Zheng family.Shao Fanning married the Zheng family, according to Zhao Lingyan's speculation, this time Song Yuan entered the game, the imperial history was written to the court, Song Yao fell into a passive position, and it was inseparable from the Zheng family and Shao Fanning.

Now that both Jiang and Lu are together, it is Shao Fanning's duty to fight in Datong City, and Shao Fanning must not let Song Yao intervene in order to make a good impression in front of the imperial envoy.

Shao Fanning thought that under the control of the Zheng family, the Four Seas Gang would fight or make peace, and it was just a word from the Zheng family.

The Peace Gang is related to another faction in Datong City, the former Yasukuni Gong.Now Lord Jingguo and his son were taken captive by the Tatars, and they went to the vast grassland, with no date of return.

The Peace Gang has lost its backing, and it is not as good as before.

The Zheng family wanted to annex the Heping Gang, and Xie Baige was not given to people who went to the rivers and lakes, although they respected a family like the Zheng family three points, but Xie Baige was not given for nothing.

Although the Zheng family can control the Four Seas Gang, the power of the Heping Gang cannot be controlled by the Zheng family.

Once this kind of gang fight broke out, no one person could have the final say.

Even though the Zheng family repeatedly sent letters to Xie Sihai, the leader of the Four Seas Clan, ordering him to stop.Xie Sihai's eyes were already red-eyed, who could listen.

Thus, the fight that shocked the entire Dafeng Dynasty finally happened.

Zhao Lingyan's understanding of Datong City is absolutely no better than Shao Fanning's, but Zhao Lingyan's judgment of the situation is definitely far better than Shao Fanning's.

As soon as he heard the letter, he immediately consulted with Song Yao.

Song Yao was about to send troops to suppress it at that time, but was persuaded by Zhao Lingyan, "This is a matter for the prefect of Shao. You intervene now. Although it is a good intention, you will be charged with interfering in Datong's internal affairs."

"What's the point? Don't you just ignore it? This is not a fight between two gangs. Both gangs have hundreds of people. If the fight continues like this, it will be red-eyed. I don't know how many people will die." Song Yao asked.

Zhao Ling said solemnly, "Ayao, if we really want to gain a foothold in Datong City, we have to deal with these people on the ground. Isn't it a chance for us fisherman to benefit from their competition. Don't forget , you are still carrying a lawsuit with you, Li Zong's whereabouts, when the Heping Gang and the Four Seas Gang united together, we have no way to investigate, and when they are killed and scattered, we may not be able to find out some clues."

"Also, Shao Fanning's prefect position is definitely not guaranteed." Zhao Lingyan said confidently, "Now, at this time, instead of asking an old fritter who is familiar with all parties in Datong City to be the prefect, It’s better to get a new one. At least, if we get a new one, we can teach him how to be smart. If we get a new one, we won’t have any connection with the soldiers.”

Song Yao hesitated again and again, "If we stand by and watch like this, if a murder is caused, it will not be good for our reputation."

Zhao Lingyan smiled slightly, "What's the difficulty?" He directly sent his own soldiers to ask Shao Fanning if he wanted to send troops to help put down the gang fights.

Sure enough, with Shao Fanning's conceit and self-confidence, he rejected Song and Zhao's proposal three times in a row.

However, Shao Fanning's refusal directly fell into the eyes of the imperial envoy Jiang Lu.

Zhao Lingyan is so cunning, can he forget Jiang Wen'an and Lu Wentao, two excellent witnesses?Moreover, Zhao Lingyan showed an extremely wronged face in front of Jiang and Lu, "Your Majesty once said that the bounden duty of the army lies in obedience. Therefore, without Master Shao's consent, we would never dare to interfere in the internal affairs of Datong City. Although Cruel, this is the army."

Shao Fanning was caught by Zhao Lingyan, no matter how difficult it is to turn over.

At this time, Song Yao and Zhao Lingyan exchanged glances, and Zhao Lingyan got up and left.

Although Vice General Niu was going to put down the chaos on Changrong Street, Zhao Lingyan had other priorities.He rushed to seize the headquarters of the Four Seas Gang and the Peace Gang.

With such a bloody case on Changrong Street, the imperial court must be furious.

Under the wrath of the imperial court, it is already a fantasy for the two gangs to want to protect themselves.

The time to reshuffle the cards at the bottom of Datong City has arrived!

Zhao Lingyan went first to the Four Seas Gang.

Facing the army, a few punks and hooligans are not enough to bite their teeth.Zhao Lingyan didn't want their lives either, and they all went to prison.Next is the inspection of the four seas.

All the words with words were packed, sealed and carried back to the general's mansion.

Then, the gate was locked and sealed, and all the gates were guarded by heavy soldiers.

Even Xie Sihai's several private houses, Zhao Lingyan sent reliable people to check them.

The efficiency of the army is incomparable. In the early hours of the morning, Zhao Lingyan had put an end to the raid of the Four Seas Gang.Instead, he went to the Peace Gang, but encountered a mess there.

The Peace Gang has changed.

Zhao Lingyan had heard that Xie Baige, the leader of the Heping Gang, had a daughter named Xie Hanyou.

Zhao Lingyan never expected that he would be caught up in a case of love and homicide.

Xie Hanyou had a dagger stuck in his chest, and that look in his eyes was extremely sad and hateful.

If Zhao Lingyan hadn't been somewhat of a literati, he wouldn't have been able to read so much from a woman's eyes.

But the dagger was held in another boy's hand. He said it was a boy. Zhao Lingyan felt that the man was quite tender-faced and not tall, just like himself.However, there was a kind of indifference without sadness or joy in his eyes.Hearing the movement, the young man had already found Zhao Lingyan and the others. In a blink of an eye, the young man pulled out his dagger, and a stream of blood gushed out from Xie Hanyou's chest, spraying the young man all over.But the young man didn't care, he twisted his body and broke out through the window, lightning flashed out quickly.

Just as Zhao Lingyan wanted to order someone to arrest him, he heard the sound of fighting outside, and the soldiers came in to report, "My lord, tell him to run away."

"It's okay, there's no need to chase." Zhao Lingyan had already picked up Xie Hanyou and asked her, "Who is that?"

As he said that, Zhao Lingyan had already felt Xie Hanyou's pulse with one hand, feeling that Xie Hanyou's life was gradually passing away.Hearing Zhao Lingyan's question, Xie Hanyou's waxy face flashed with excitement, and he said decisively, "Song Shaoyang!"

Afterwards, Xie Hanyou remained silent, and there still seemed to be three points of absolute love and hatred in his wide-eyed eyes.

Do not look down.

None of the belongings in the Heping Gang were moved, but Zhao Lingyan believed that the most valuable things should have been taken away by Song Shaoyang.

The fight between the Heping Gang and the Four Seas Gang added a three-point chill to Datong City.

Shao Fanning's newlywed wife, Mrs. Zheng, was worried that her husband went to the general's mansion and did not return overnight, so she was busy going to the general's mansion to inquire, but when she couldn't find anything, she became anxious and had to send her close wife back to her natal family for help.

The Zheng family is the concubine daughter of Zheng Yitian, the eldest son of Zheng Linbing, the patriarch of the current Zheng family. Now that the Zheng family has heard that Zhao Lingyan has brought people to copy the world, it is already a bit tricky. How can they care about Zheng's affairs, but they need to understand Shao Fan's current situation? Ning's situation.

I have no choice but to order my family to take Mrs. Zheng back to her natal family to ask about it. Mrs. Zheng is a woman who was raised in her boudoir when she was not married. Except for female reds and three obediences and four virtues, as well as some small tricks in the woman's house, there is really nothing experience.After all, it was what her father asked, and she just told the truth.

After ordering someone to send Mrs. Zheng back to the inner house to rest, Zheng Yitian complained to his father, Zheng Linbing, "Shao Fanning is too incompetent. This time, the four seas have been copied, and those accounts may be a bit troublesome."

Zheng Linbing said indifferently, "What kind of account, what kind of family is our Zheng family, how can we have any connection with bandits. Yitian, don't talk nonsense."

"Yes, father." Zheng Yitian has served by his father's side for decades. Knowing Zheng Linbing well, he understands that Zheng Linbing doesn't intend to make money anymore.Indeed, their Zheng family has no direct contact with the world.

If Song Yao and Zhao Lingyan thought that they could get hold of the Zheng family by relying on the Four Seas, they would be disappointed.

Thinking of Song and Zhao, Zheng Yitian felt a little annoyed, "These two boys really don't know what's good."

Zheng Linbing looked sternly in his eyes, looked at his son and said, "Speak politely! What do you mean 'these two boys'? Did you dare to call them that when General Liu was here?"

After a short pause, Zheng Linbing stroked the beard under his chin and said, "Shao Fanning's move is useless. General Song and Military Master Zhao have already established their footing. Young talents, young talents, and the fourth girl are also very good." Is it five?"

The fourth daughter is Zheng Yitian's legitimate daughter, Zheng Yitian is not reluctant, but hesitant, "Father, will this seem like we are asking for peace?"

"It's not in a hurry now, let's figure it out, you don't want to marry the fourth girl just yet." Zheng Linbing sighed.

Indeed, even if you want to ask for peace, your posture must be elegant enough to not lose your demeanor.

imperial capital.

Ming Zhan is having a headache about Lin Yongshang.

Although Ming Zhan thought that Lin Yongshang lost the scabbard of Taizu's sword, which was worth a lot of money, he felt very distressed.However, Lin Yongshang is more valuable than Lin Yongshang in a scabbard.

However, Ming Zhan was the only one who thought this way.

The courtiers learned that Lin Yongshang had lost half of the national treasure, and even Li Pingzhou scolded Lin Yongshang in private for being careless and losing the treasure.

Lin Yongshang simply showed the spirit of a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water, no matter what anyone said, he was already like this anyway.Kill or cut, whatever.

What Lin Yongshang didn't expect was that someone really wanted to kill him and then cut him up, so as to kill the grass and root it out.

In the end, Ming Zhan had no choice but to say against all opinions, "Okay, anyone who has seen the Taizu sword will know its value. Besides, even if it takes all the power of the country, I'm afraid it will be impossible to imitate a scabbard." .Lin Yongshang, are you guilty?"

Lin Yongshang pleaded guilty.

Ming Zhan got up from the dragon chair and got off Danbi, walked up to Lin Yongshang, and said regretfully, "It's a pity that this thing is lost. I have never seen a treasure that is more valuable than that scabbard." .” He said and sighed twice.

Li Pingzhou was afraid that Ming Zhan would do something to Lin Yongshang, so he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, although the scabbard is lost, it is not without clues. Why don't you order Lin Yongshang to investigate carefully, find the scabbard, and make meritorious deeds."

"Li Xiang, things are not as simple as this. It takes time to find the scabbard, and Master Lin can't let Master Lin search for it forever. After all, it is something passed down from the Taizu, the treasure of Dingguo." Uncle Nanfeng Lu Jian'an said.

Ming Zhan sighed, "The day before yesterday, I had a dream. I dreamed of the old man Taizu and said a word to me. I couldn't figure it out. Now, I said it, and my lovers will help me to refer to it. See What does it mean to see Emperor Taizu?"

Even Ruan Hongfei admired Ming Zhan's ability to talk nonsense.

"It is said that in the middle of the night before, I suddenly heard someone calling my name, calling 'Ming Zhan Ming Zhan' repeatedly." Ming Zhan said, "I just opened my eyes and saw an old man with a white beard standing beside me. Before going to bed, I thought about it, I didn’t know this old man at all, so I asked, ‘Who are you?’.”

"The old man laughed and said to me, 'Sitting on my land, you don't know your ancestors anymore?'" Ming Zhan said vividly, "When I thought about it, this must be Grandpa Renzong. Then, I said I said, 'Grandpa Renzong, how did you live?'. Who would have thought that the old man tapped the top of my hair with his fingers, the pain was severe, and he reprimanded me, 'I am the founding emperor of the country, don't talk nonsense' At this time, I realized that this was actually the Emperor Taizu. I quickly thought, since I became the throne, I have always governed with trepidation, for fear that I might offend my ancestors. Why did the Emperor Taizu suddenly come? It scared me enough. I quickly asked, "Grandpa Taizu, you have come all the way here, but what are your orders?" Taizu said to me, "I see that you look good as an emperor, but you are quite rigid. At the place, the old man was watching anxiously underground, so I came here to give you a few pointers."

Ming Zhan's eyes widened, and now he said it with a lot of emotion, "Is this okay? The Emperor Taizu wanted to give advice to me personally, and I listened carefully. The Emperor Taizu said, 'I won this ten thousand li country, relying on it. There are many civil servants and military generals, brave and not afraid of death; they rely on the common people in the world, and their benevolence and righteousness return to their hearts.' After listening to the emperor Taizu, I seemed to have some enlightenment, but there was something unclear. At that time, I suddenly remembered Lin Yongshang actually lost Emperor Taizu's sword, so I feel quite guilty towards Emperor Taizu."

"You also know that I am a real person. I hesitated for a moment and was spotted by the Taizu. When the Taizu asked, I couldn't keep the words, so I told the matter to the Emperor Taizu." Ming Zhan looked like a god. Said, "Emperor Taizu shook his head greatly at me, sighed again and again, 'The idiot has not yet realized', then turned and left."

"At this point, I just woke up from the dream." Ming Zhan said with a serious face, "After I woke up, I thought about it again and again, and I couldn't believe it. Who knows, the top of the hair suddenly hurts unbearably. Only after I touched it did I realize that there was a black bump on the top of the hair. This party believed it."

"Li Xiang, come on, touch the top of my hair, it hurts so much when you comb it." In fact, after Ming Zhan's pleading the day before yesterday, Ruan Hongfei finally agreed to be below.Ming Zhan's eyes lit up, and he was about to turn the serf over to sing the song, but he was so excited that he bumped his head against the railing at the head of the bed.

Everything in the palace is good, only the big bed where Ming Zhan sleeps, it is made of decent agarwood, Ming Zhan bumped into a big green bag all of a sudden, he was so dizzy, his eyes were full of stars, he suddenly lost his mind Gone.

Now Ming Zhan asked Li Pingzhou to pat his head, how could Li Pingzhou have the guts to keep pushing him back.

Ming Zhan had no choice but to give up, and sighed, "Before, I couldn't understand the meaning of Taizu. Now seeing Lin Yongshang, I suddenly understand."
