The legend of the king of crossing

Chapter 176 Treasure

Ningkun Palace.

I returned the Lin family elder order to Xie Daolin, and told him in detail what happened to the Lin family in Fuzhou.

Xie Daolin accepted the elder's order and said gratefully: "I originally wanted the Lin family to help His Majesty, but I didn't expect that His Majesty relieved the Lin family's crisis. I thanked Your Majesty for your kindness, and thanked Your Majesty again on behalf of the Lin family."

"Xie Aiqing, you and I are a family, and because of the Lin family, it's just a little effort, Aiqing doesn't need to say thank you."

"Your Majesty, how can we not thank you for such a great kindness? I didn't expect that Ji Wenlei was really amazing, and the masked man invited was amazing. Thanks to your majesty and Mr. Yuan's help this time, I would like to ask your majesty's minister to thank Mr. Yuan." .”

Xie Dao Linyi came from the Lin family, and his martial arts are slightly better than the current head of the Lin family and another elder. For the past ten years, he has always claimed to be the number one expert in the capital. The idea of ​​competing with it.After listening to my narration, Xie Daolin knew that his martial arts were not as good as that of the masked man, let alone Yuan Ji, who was still above the masked man, and he was grateful to Yuan Ji for standing up for the Lin family, so naturally he had no desire to win .

"With Mr. Yuan by the official's side, the queen mother is also very relieved."

Xie Daolin agreed: "Well, Mr. Yuan's martial arts are world-class, so he can protect His Majesty well."

Xie Daoqing nodded slightly and said, "Officials, how is the matter on Fujian Road going?"

"Mother, listen to the child speak slowly."

I recounted my experience in Fuzhou, even when I appeared as Mr. Huyan of Shifeng Commercial Company, and finally said: "Mother, my child thinks that this way of handling is relatively peaceful, what does mother think?"

Xie Daoqing did not answer but asked instead: "Why didn't the officials deal with Chen Xinshu in the end?"

I didn't tell the queen mother that I wanted to take back Chen Xinshu, but I explained, "My queen, since I became the throne, I have basically understood the current situation of our officialdom. There will be Zhang Xinshu and Wang Xinshu, so the boy will give him a chance to repent, and will take the method of supervising officials from all over the country with the Supervisory Office and the Nanya Office, so as to change the general environment of our officialdom. Only when the general environment is clean can it be done once and for all. .”

Quan Jiu arrived at Ningkun Palace ahead of schedule in the afternoon, and had already told Xie Daoqing about the Supervisory Office and Nanya.

Xie Daoqing became more surprised as he listened to it. After listening to it, he stared at me and said for a long time, "Guan, you have grown up." After finishing speaking, two tears suddenly flowed down his face.

This made me, Xie Daolin, and Quan Jiu a little bit at a loss. "Queen, what is this..." Quan Jiu asked in a low voice.

Xie Daoqing wiped away his tears, and said with a smile: "Jiu'er, the official family, the queen mother is so happy, I finally waited until this day."

I didn't understand what Xie Daoqing meant. What do you mean by waiting until this day?

Xie Daoqing waved his hand and signaled all the maids to step back. He seemed to recall something and said to me after a while: "Officials, the late emperor had a long talk with me alone for a night before his death. Today, the empress will tell you the late emperor's message."

"The first emperor left a message?"

"En." Xie Daoqing said with some sadness, "The former emperor said that he originally belonged to the lineage of Yan Wang Dezhao, the son of the Taizu, and when it was passed on to his father Zhao Xiyu, it was already very alienated from the lineage of the then royal family Qin Wang Defang. Moreover, the family fortune has long since declined and lost the prince. During the reign of Emperor Ningzong, the princes died one after another. Ningzong made Zhao Guihe, the son of his younger brother Yiwang Zhao Zhuan, the prince, but Shi Miyuan, the prime minister of the court at that time, It was because he disliked Zhao Guihe so much that he found Emperor Xian. Finally, with the support of Shi Miyuan and Empress Yang, Emperor Xian ascended to the throne. After winning the throne, Emperor Xian naturally wanted to do something to show that he was more expensive than Zhao Guihe. He is more capable of rejuvenating the Song Dynasty. He is diligent and studious, and he is very diligent in politics. He also recruits talents, rectifies the administration of officials, and proposes some rectification measures in various aspects. However, the power at that time was in the hands of Shi Miyuan and Yang In the hands of the empress, the first emperor had to keep a low profile. After Shi Miyuan's death, the first emperor adopted a series of reform measures in various aspects such as government affairs, economy, military affairs, and culture. , to return to the old capital, however, later encountered various situations, our soldiers were attacked by Mongols, coupled with insufficient food and grass, and finally failed. Since then, the first emperor lost the vigor of diligent governance and became obsessed with Neo Confucianism , negligence in political affairs, and traitors are everywhere in the court, when the late emperor reacted, it was already irreversible, so the late emperor pinned all his hopes on the officials."

After resting for a while, Xie Daoqing continued: "However, the performance of the official family has always been unsatisfactory. Except for the first emperor, no one thinks that the official family will become a great weapon in the future. Even my mother, I am not optimistic about the official family at that time."

I apologized for the crown prince Zhao Yu: "I made the empress bother."

At that time, Zhao Yu was indeed an unworthy person, but no matter how smart Xie Daoqing was, he would never have imagined that Zhao Yu and I were two people.

"That night, the first emperor left a message saying that the emperor is a potential dragon in the abyss, and sooner or later, he will fly into the sky. I left two treasures for Zhao Yu's child. One is Zhao Yu's martial arts professor, Mr. Yuan Zhiyuan, Yuan Ji came from the Valley of the Kings, and his martial arts are invincible, which can keep Zhao Yu's life safe. Second, I have 10 taels of gold hidden in Hongqiao, Shanyin County, Shaoxing Prefecture, where I was born. Open this golden treasure house to help the emperor's ability to control the dragon. If the emperor is unable to control the dragon, let the golden treasure house stay underground forever."

"10 taels of gold?" I was taken aback. I didn't expect the Song Dynasty to have such a huge amount of wealth.

"Well, that's what the first emperor said. The queen mother has never been to the gold treasure house, but I think the first emperor would not lie at will." Xie Daoqing smiled, "Now the official's family is going to Fujian Road. What they did finally made the mother feel that the official The family is enough to be able to control the dragon, so the queen mother told all the messages from the late emperor."

"Yuan Ji? Treasure?" I couldn't help but sighed, "My mother, the late emperor was so wise, it's really my child's luck."

"That's right. Although the late emperor had a mild temperament, and even made people feel too weak, he could see how extraordinary the official family is today. The fact that he left these two treasures shows the wisdom of the late emperor."

I nodded and thought to myself, the first generation of muskets has just been made, and what the new army urgently needs is military expenses.

"The first emperor was wise, and the mother was wise."

"Hehe, the official family, the queen mother is nothing wise. Jiu'er, go to the back room and open my jewelry box. There is a calligraphy and painting on the bottom floor, take it out and give it to the official family."

Not long after, Quan Jiu gave me the painting and calligraphy left by the late emperor.

"This picture shows the location of the treasure, and the officials can arrange it themselves."

I took a look at the calligraphy and painting, put them in my arms and said, "My son thanked the queen mother."

Xie Daoqing gave an "en" and said: "Officials, the Queen Mother and Jiu'er have selected ten beautiful girls for you. You can meet them in the next few days. If you have no objections, let them enter the palace."

"Huh? So fast."

"Officials, when the first emperor came to the throne, he already had more than a dozen concubines. You have been in power for more than half a year, and there are only a few concubines. How fast is it?"

I can't make excuses anymore, so I can only answer: "This matter, the queen mother can decide on this matter."
