Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

Di Shoujie quickly rushed to the Nanqing Palace to meet the concubine, and asked, "Why did you call me here?"

Concubine Di told the whole story once, and Di Shoujie was very surprised, "How could it be so sudden?"

"Yeah, just now. It seems that the matter is serious. Now the prince is very angry. I'm afraid he will do something. I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with it." Concubine Di was very anxious

"Your Majesty is thinking about it, so what should I do?" Shou Jie asked

"I heard that my brother is about to go to the border defense. This is where General Cao was originally employed. I want to ask my brother to find out some clues after he arrives at the border defense. If something happens in Beijing, he can also take care of it."

Shoujun nodded, "Your Majesty is very thoughtful, and this time I am going to inspect for my brother. It is justifiable. I will set off as soon as possible. As soon as there is news, I will inform the prince as soon as possible."

"Don't tell the prince, don't let him know about this for the time being, otherwise the emperor's suspicion will definitely be aroused, and more people will be involved at that time," Concubine Di said

"Well, what the empress said is reasonable, so I'll go prepare for my brother." Shoujie bid farewell to Concubine Di, hurried back to the mansion, and after lunch, rushed to the border guard with the guards.

In the evening, Defang approached Nan Gongwen in the study to discuss, "What should I do now?"

Nangong Wen thought for a while, "Your Majesty, the current situation at the border is a bit stable, and His Majesty is focusing on finances, so he is naturally hesitant about the military generals at the border, but the current situation seems to be a bit serious. If it continues like this, it will definitely cause the border guards to panic." dissatisfied"

"That's true. I didn't expect that it would involve grandpa. It's really unexpected." Defang shook her head

"My lord, now we need to find out who the perpetrator is"

Defang thought about it for a while, "In my king's opinion, there is no one else but Mi Dechao. Mi Dechao was originally a supervisor. Because of a memorial about General Cao, he was promoted to deputy envoy of the Privy Council. Some time ago, he went to Provoked General Cao's adjutants, causing His Majesty to imprison several adjutants and punish them."

Nan Gongwen nodded, "Mi Dechao was recommended by Li Fu and Li Qi. After the emperor ascended the throne, he became an enshrined official. Later, he moved to the restaurant envoy, served as the supervisor of Hangzhou soldiers and horses, and was also the supervisor of Zhenzhou. Publicity is too much, often using the name of His Majesty to bully lower-level officials."

Defang stood up and said, "It will be a disaster for such a traitor to stay in the court, and now he is still in charge of the Privy Council. Your Majesty's arrangement makes me puzzled."

"Na Mi Dechao has followed His Majesty since he was still the King of Jin. Although his rank is very low, he is a member of His Majesty's mansion after all. His Majesty must think that what he reported is true, and it happens to be able to use this matter to weaken General Cao. the power of

Defang nodded, "It's really so-called that one person can ascend to heaven. I hate that Mi Dechao. A few memorials and a few vernacular words have brought the heroes of the Song Dynasty to such a situation. It makes people resentful!" Defang punched the table

"Don't get angry, my lord. If you want to change your majesty's attitude on this matter, you need a lot of evidence, otherwise you will only get angry. Think twice, lord," said Nangongwen

Defang sighed, "I think the king is single and weak, so how can we restrain Mi Dechao?"

"My lord, do you know Wang Xian, the envoy of Xuanhui South Court?" Nan Gongwen asked.

Defang thought for a while, "Wang Xian? This king recognizes him. He was originally the envoy of Dongshang Hemen. This king has met him several times."

"Does your lord know that Mi Dechao is very dissatisfied with Wang Xian?"

"Oh? Why?" Defang was puzzled
