Chapter 690 Zhao Ji Spits Blood
Chapter 690 Zhao Ji Spits Blood
Great Song Palace.
The New Year's Eve is approaching, and both inside and outside the palace are busy.
For example, the Daqing Hall in the Outer Dynasty was the place where the great court meeting was held. It is nine rooms wide, with five halls on the east and west sides, and sixty corridors on the east and west. Such a vast hall can accommodate tens of thousands of people at one time.
The scale is indeed grand, but it is obviously a huge project to clean such a place to be spotless and all the decorations conform to the etiquette.
The Wende Hall on the west side of the Daqing Hall is the main venue for government affairs. For a period of time after the Queen Mother Xiang passed away, there were almost no officials here. Recently, diligent officials have often been seen.
The Zichen Hall on the north side is a place for large-scale festivals, the Chuigong Hall on the south side is used to receive foreign ministers, plus the Jiying Hall for summoning Jinshi, and the Need Cloud Hall for watching operas and banquets, forming the outer court. The main palace group.
Of course, Zhao Ji's favorite place is Yanfu Palace. Under his urging, the speed of expansion of that area is also quite fast. Presumably, in a few months, he will be able to enter the luxurious and luxurious palace to enjoy himself.
Zhao Ji, who has recently become interested in strange stones, was thinking about whether to open up an area and cast stones into mountains, so he heard the servant report: "Officials, Gao Tiju is waiting outside the palace."
Xu Zhida Wenzou, the secretary of the imperial city, can enter the palace at any time to ask for an audience, Zhao Ji didn't care, and nodded: "Let him in!"
Zhao Ji is quite satisfied with this former minister of the hidden mansion, and the credit is second. The key is that this person's gaining power has made the civil servants extremely dissatisfied. Recently, there have been endless criticisms.
Zhao Ji is most afraid that his subjects will unite and force him to step down. Naturally, he is happy to see Gao Qiu attracting firepower, mediating by himself, and exterminating Mingzun's cult. refuse?
Therefore, before Gao Qiu came to the front, Zhao Ji asked the palace maid to move a square stool beside him to show his favor.
Gao Qiu followed the servants into the palace, and when he saw this small stool, he was very excited, and even more so, he felt that a scholar would die for his confidant, and he came before him and bowed down: "Minister Gao Qiu pays homage to the official family!"
Zhao Ji smiled and said: "Gao Qing's family is free! Sit down!"
Gao Qiu can't do anything else, he is good at catering to officials, his eyes turned red immediately, and he kowtowed: "The minister is appreciated by the officials, so I have today, and I should be ashamed to repay the grace!"
Thinking that this person was originally a street ruffian, but he had to be valued by himself to achieve today's achievements. It is true that a thousand-mile horse is common, but Bole is not common. Bar!"
Only then did Gao Qiu sit down cautiously: "Report to the officials, I have arrested a group of Western Xia spies!"
Zhao Ji was originally leaning on the dragon chair with a relaxed body. The moment he heard this sentence, his smile froze and his back straightened subconsciously: "Xixia?"
Gao Qiu said: "Yes, the leader is named Ren Duo Wei Zhong, he is the younger brother of the Xi Xia general Ren Duo Bao Zhong, who was sent deep into the capital of Song Dynasty to steal key information, but was captured by the minister."
If it is said that Zhao Ji had a little extravagant hope before, maybe it was another group of Xixia thieves. Hearing this, he suddenly lost his luck.
How is it such a coincidence?
But for this confidant who came to report excitedly, he didn't know what to say for a while, so he could only hum.
It's not surprising that Gao Qiu saw the official's inexplicable and ugly expression. After all, the enemy's secret spies went deep into the capital and operated under their noses. No one would feel comfortable.
Fortunately, there is the blue sky of myself, who can shelter the wind and rain, and make the hearts of the officials more stable: "The thieves in the country are in turmoil and their military power is declining. They are no longer our opponents in the Song Dynasty. Eunuch Li Xian has evidence of being a military general, and he wants to use it to control the front line and conspire against him. If this person succeeds, the consequences will be disastrous..."
Zhao Ji didn't care about the war in Xixia at all. After all, it was only the front line that suffered losses in the Northwest Front, and could not threaten Bianjing, and if the charge of killing his mother was not cleared away, his throne would not be stable for a day, so he asked directly: "Where is the West Thieves and spies, do you have someone in the dark?"
"Sage is nothing more than an official!"
Gao Qiuhong said in a loud voice: "The chief thief confessed that it was Jia Xiang, who was in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, who secretly colluded with this person. The Imperial City Secretary has already dispatched to arrest Jia Xiang's cronies outside the palace!"
Zhao Ji's hands trembled violently, his heart sank completely, and he said sharply, "Back off! Back off, everyone!"
Not to mention that Gao Qiu was taken aback, he hurriedly left the stool and knelt down, the servants and maidservants around him were even more silent, feeling that the officials had returned to the moodiness they had some time ago, so they hurriedly withdrew.
When there were only two people left in the hall, Zhao Ji looked at Gao Qiu, who was lying on the ground, and entered without knowing it, with hesitant eyes.
He was considering whether to tell this confidant his plan.
"After all, this person is the former minister of my latent residence. Others will betray me, but he will not betray..."
"No! I can't tell him that Gao Lian is no longer just Xingchen..."
Gao Qiu, who is incapable, will never betray him, because fortunate ministers are often unworthy of virtue, and all power comes from the emperor who favors and trusts him, so he is naturally loyal.
But Gao Qi, who is capable, is really not sure. According to this person's ability, another emperor can still be successful. The so-called loyalty is greatly reduced!
So Zhao Ji took a deep breath and suppressed his anger and absurdity forcibly: "This matter is of great importance, you Imperial City Secretary should not act rashly..."
Gao Qiu was stunned, a mere eunuch, even if he had some power in the palace, if the officials said it, he would be imprisoned casually, what's the reason for not acting rashly?
Zhao Ji also realized that his order was very unreasonable, and became more and more irritable: "I told you to ignore it, don't you understand?"
Gao Qiu's mind was muddled, and he just wanted to go back and ask Mr. Lin about the meaning of the official's arrangement. After hearing the obviously displeased voice, he was frightened and responded repeatedly: "Understood! I understand!"
Seeing Gao Qiu's silence, coupled with Jia Xiang's exposure, how the follow-up will end is also a mess, Zhao Ji also felt a little guilty, took a deep breath, came to Gao Qiu, bent down and helped him up: "Gao Xiaoyi, you are my last... Trust me!"
Gao Qiu was the eldest in the family, and that was what Zhao Ji called Zhao Ji when they played Cuju in Duanwang Mansion. Hearing this, his heart warmed, and he hurriedly expressed his loyalty: "The officials don't have to worry, there are ministers and the Imperial City Secretary. Allow the traitors to be rampant, let alone allow them to harm the dragon body of the official family and endanger my chance of the Great Song Dynasty!"
Seeing this upright loyal minister of Song Dynasty, Zhao Ji opened his mouth and could only say, "How can I not know your loyalty? What you did this time..."
Hearing this, Gao Qiu raised his head slightly, showing an expectant expression, Zhao Ji's cheek muscles twitched violently, and squeezed out four words: "Good job!"
Gao Qiu always felt that the official's tone was not right, but after thinking about it carefully, the official had no reason to blame him, and immediately said: "This is the responsibility of the minister!"
Zhao Ji's temples twitched, knowing that he couldn't continue talking, otherwise he would have to be furious, so he gritted his teeth and said, "I'm a little tired today, you should step back, remember this case and don't act rashly!"
Gao Qiu took the order: "Yes! I will resign!"
Watching the cronies retreat respectfully, until the footsteps of the other party completely left the hall, Zhao Ji rushed forward a few steps, kicked the stool out with one foot, trembling with anger.
If it is someone who is against him, and things are broken, that's all!
He could even accept that Jian Wang Zhao seemed to be indifferent to the throne, and if he didn't fall for this trick, he would be a prince in the palace, and there was really nothing he could do about him.
But now neither...
Why Gao Qi?This is his cronies!My cronies dismantled my platform, but I still want to praise what the other party has done!
There is nothing more ridiculous in the world than this!
The only good news is that Gao Qiu did not dare to disobey orders, Jia Xiang will not be arrested for the time being, and the plan can still be carried out.
But how to deal with the great eunuch afterwards is also a problem.
Killing the mouth directly will cause great trouble in the future, because there was too much commotion that night for the Queen Mother, and too many people in the palace witnessed him being driven out covered in blood, and there were too many people in the Funing Palace who ignited a raging fire at that time. In addition to word of mouth, it was still up to Yang Jian, Lan Congxi, Jia Xiang and other eunuchs to suppress the word afterwards.
The palace cannot be completely bloodbathed, so in order to stabilize the throne, Zhao Ji is also willing to share the power with the eunuchs, the two sides maintain a tacit understanding, and once Jia Xiang is killed, the remaining eunuchs will be in danger, and the situation cannot be guaranteed not to get out of control!
Zhao Ji kept turning around in the hall, the more he thought about it, the more he had a headache, he didn't even know when the night would fall.
After having a boring dinner, he didn't care about pampering other concubines, so he asked Queen Wang to come to bed.
Queen Wang is his original wife, the concubine of Duan Wangfu, who gave birth to the prince Zhao Huan not long ago, with a gentle temperament.
Seeing that the officials were in an extremely bad mood, Queen Wang didn't dare to say anything except the most basic comfort.
Zhao Ji just wanted to find a quiet place, and thought about it for a long time without being disturbed. In the middle of the night, he was really tired and fell asleep drowsily.
But before he had slept for half an hour, he was woken up by the noise outside, and then he saw Yang Jian rushing in, and said with a panicked expression: "Officials, something is wrong, Prince Jian's mansion is on fire!"
Zhao Ji was stunned for a moment, then got up abruptly, rushed outside the hall, looked at the faintly red sky in the distance, jumped up and said: "Hurry up to put out the fire! Hurry up to put out the fire! King Jian must be safe!"
Hearing this sincere and anxious voice, the servants and maids were very surprised, they all said that the Tian family has no family ties, does this person care so much about his younger brother?
The Queen Wang who was woken up also hurried over, put on clothes for him, and said softly: "The official family's love for brothers makes the ministers and concubines admire, but take care of the dragon's body!"
Zhao Ji ignored it, and still shouted hoarsely: "Fire! Fire!!"
Not to mention the chaos in the palace, the soldiers from all the streets in the palace came to fight the fire skillfully with fire extinguishers.
What surprised them was that the fire seemed to be raging and overwhelming, but it only gathered in Prince Jian's mansion and did not spread to the surrounding houses.
Judging from the disgruntled servants who escaped, the number of people caught in the fire was also extremely rare. The shop soldiers had dealt with a lot of fires in central Beijing, but they had never seen such a restrained fire.
So after more than an hour, the fire was extinguished. Facing the burned palace, a large number of Ban Zhi and servants rushed in.
Another half an hour later, Lan Congxi, who is good at fighting fires, came to Zhao Ji and knelt down in front of Zhao Ji tremblingly: "Return to the official's house, the fire in Prince Jian's Mansion has been extinguished, and the mansion is almost burnt down. I'm afraid it will be more or less auspicious..."
Zhao Ji's eyes darkened.
King Jane is gone?
Whether he died, or saw through his design, set fire to escape, and the disappearance of King Jian all meant that the coup plan was aborted.
In this way, after suppressing rumors and diverting attention, the third plan to blame others also failed.
"Apart from these methods, is there any other way to make the subjects of the world stop talking about me killing my mother?"
"I can't think of it... I can't think of it!"
"Could it be that the infamy of killing my mother and fooling the emperor will follow me for the rest of my life?"
Finally, this official named Ji, who had always been physically strong, was furious under successive blows. With a wow, a mouthful of blood spewed out of his mouth, and fell backward amidst the screams of everyone.
This year seems to be going badly...
