Compete for the Song Dynasty

Qin Minxue was just thrown to the ground by Wang Pang, but now he got up and patted the dirt on his body.He didn't expect that Wang Pang would be so bold that even the decree officer dared to contradict him.Seeing the blood-filled pupils next to the king staring at him, I really felt a little scared.He hid behind Yue Li and said: "Prefect Yue, I'm not saying that, I'm afraid that Wang Shilang will resist the edict in your Baozhou, and your Prefect Yue can't afford it."

"Damn it! Kill this kid, brother and follow me back to my hometown!" Xie Libo could bear it no longer, and when he stood up and was about to rush over, he was held down by Zhe Kejun and Zhang Ping.

"Why are you dragging me?" Xie Libo glared at the two of them.

Zhe Kejun said in a low voice: "Brother, don't be impulsive. Wang Shilang is an official ordered by the court, and resisting the order is a disaster of death. Let the prefect Yue handle it."

Among the few people, Zhe Kejun is calm and calm, and he is usually quiet and reticent. He can still listen to what he says.Xie Libo suppressed the suffocation in his chest, and made a muffled sound in his throat.Several people looked at Wang Pang, Wang Pang was angry and confused: "You tell me your name, I will return to Beijing and return to my order before it is too late, if the emperor punishes you, I will bear it for you!" [

Qin Minxue hid behind Yue Li, and said to the king, "You don't need to know my name, if you resist the order, Prime Minister Bao, Judge Wang can't help you."

When Wang Pang heard this, he became even angrier. Seeing this, the imperial court did not allow him to go back. What's the big deal?Can't wait until I return to the capital?Yue Li and Qin Minxue blinked, but they didn't know how fast Wang Pang was walking. He had already come to Yue Li's side. Wang Pang stretched out his arm and put Qin Minxue's neck in his arms: "Believe it or not, I will strangle you to death!" ! Why are you not allowed to return to the capital?”

Qin Minxue grabbed Wang Pang's arm with both hands and kicked his legs wildly.Yue Li was terrified when he saw it, and hurriedly said: "Young brother, let go quickly, even if you strangle him to death, you won't be able to return to the capital, and you will kill your wife and son?"

Zhe Kejun and the others were not far away. Hearing this, they hurriedly rushed forward and grabbed Wang's side: "My lord, don't be impulsive!"

Wang Pang seemed to have vaguely heard Yue Li's words, he was taken aback, maybe something happened at home, when he was in a daze, several people snatched Qin Minxue from Wang Pang's loosened arms.Now Qin Minxue rubbed his neck and coughed a few times, instead of thanking Yue Li, he glared at Yue Li and said, "Prefect Yue, you are very well informed, it seems that you have a good relationship with Wang Shilang. Are you instigating something?"

At this time, Yue Li suppressed his anger, and picked up the imperial decree that Qin Minxue had just dropped on the ground: "I dare not provoke you, but it is a fact that Wang Shilang's wife and adopted son are in the palace. This official, Yue Li is willing The black yarn on the head guarantees that he urges Wang Shilang to go to Korea immediately. Besides, Wang Shilang has not resisted the order not to go to Korea, please go back and reply to the order."

Seeing what Yue Li said, Qin Minxue got on his horse and pointed at Yue Li with a whip, and said, "Prefect Yue, if something goes wrong, the emperor will blame you and don't blame me for telling the truth." Qin Minxue is now in the limelight. He has a lot of trust in him, he is too young to know the heights of heaven and earth, and even the magistrate is not in his eyes.

As soon as he finished speaking, a thin and capable young man flashed out from among the crowd. He jumped up to Qin Minxue's horse, and with a wave of his arm, he drew out the simple knife behind him. One sound: "Mom!" I leaned over.

The person who came out was Han Derong. Among these people, he was about the same age as Wang Pang, and he was also young and energetic. His sword was not learned from cutting Qin Min, but to scare him.When the knife was about to fall, Han Derong turned his arm, and the blade turned around and slapped Qin Minxue's horse's ass hard with the blade.

Han Derong was not tall, but he was strong, and he was very fast. The horse Qin Minxue was riding was hit hard, and he jumped out with a long cry.Qin Minxue's horse did not return to Baozhou City, but instead ran towards the border of Song and Liao.Han Derong laughed secretly, it would be better if his horse ran for dozens of miles, crossed the border directly and was shot to death by random arrows from the two guarding armies.

Zhe Kejun saw Han Derong come back with a smile: "Brother Han is also impulsive!"

Han Derong said disdainfully: "He's shocked, it's none of my business!"

Wang Pang ignored them and went straight to Yue Li. It seemed that Yue Li understood the situation very clearly. At this moment, Yue Li was holding the imperial decree in his hand and looked at Wang Pang anxiously: "Brother Yue, what happened?" ?”

"I'll tell you slowly when I enter the city." After Yue Li finished speaking, he led several people beside Wang into Baozhou City.The city of Baozhou was quiet and depressed. Wang Pang walked away for two or three months without knowing it. Now the city can't tell that the new year has just passed. Everyone in the street looks sad, the people are all wearing filial piety, and all the shops and shops have been closed. , The smoke of burning paper money floated over Baozhou.

A few people led the horses through the market, and from the side of the road came the wailing sounds of the people who burned paper money, the paper ash, the heavy smoke, the sound of horseshoes, and the sound of people walking on the road, which made Wang Pang feel even more depressed. bitter.

Yue Li directly brought Wang Pang to his mansion, and ordered the guards to close the gate, and he invited Wang Pang into the inner house.Both sat down and calmed down.Yue Li sighed and said: "The emperor passed away, and the world was full of grief. I know that my brother and the emperor have a strong relationship, so it should be right to go back and pay respects."

Wang Pang also thought of Yelu Hongji and Renzong before, he said to Yue Li: "This time I was in Liao Kingdom, when the Emperor of Liao Kingdom practiced with me, I buried the royal clothes given to him by Emperor Renzong as a tomb, and inscribed The poem reads: Nongsang doesn't disturb the year-old Chang Deng, and the side generals can't do it. 42 years are like a dream, and the spring breeze blows tears through Zhaoling. "

As he spoke, he clenched his fists, furiously furious in his heart: "Even if all Liao people went to Yongzhao Mausoleum to worship Emperor Renzong, why didn't they let me go back to the capital? Brother Yue, what did you mean by saying that you killed your wife and son? "

Yue Li wondered in his heart whether he should mention this matter to Wang Pang, but Wang Pang would know about it, if he turned his temper and returned to the capital, it would be troublesome: "My dear brother, I said, you have to calm."[

Wang Pang nodded. Seeing that his mood was relatively stable, Yue Li whispered, "Emperor Yingzong ascended the throne, and something happened to the court. You must not show up at this time!"

Wang Pang frowned, "Why?"

Yue Li hesitated for a moment, and finally told the truth: "I heard from insiders that when Emperor Renzong passed away, he hurriedly recruited the crown prince into the palace, drafted an edict that night and the crown prince ascended the throne the next day. On the day of the emperor's funeral, the new The emperor was carried away, not only did he not cry, but he was running around the coffin of Emperor Renzong, who was about to be buried, noisy and noisy, and several people couldn't hold him down."

Song Yingzong was crazy, and Wang Pang knew about it a long time ago, or Wang Pang had an impression in the history of the Song Dynasty he had read in his previous life. Later generations of psychologists analyzed that Song Yingzong and Zhao Shu were suffering from depression.But what does this have to do with Wang Pang, why did he have to look for it and feel sorry for Wang Pang. "He is already the emperor, how could he feel sorry for me."

Yue Li still knows something, but this matter was found out with a lot of money, and it is related to a very important person close to the emperor: "I got news about a person, and I can't tell my brother who this person is, but this matter is very strange. Emperor Renzong When he was seriously ill, the new Emperor Yingzong had an illness once, and at that time he believed that the younger brother would know sorcery, and only by confusing the emperor will the emperor favor you more."

Speaking of this, Yue Li paused for a moment, he knew that the king would definitely get angry if he listened to what he was going to say next, he looked at Wang's face and said: "The crown prince has taken your wife and adopted son into the mansion, no one can see him."

"Ah, Yuexia? Tong Xiao?" Wang Pang couldn't help calling out these two names.

Yue Li nodded: "The emperor was very angry when he knew about this matter. He knew that he was seriously ill, so he drafted a new imperial edict. Whoever gets the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun can become the emperor. Is the emperor confused?"

Wang Pang also had this question in his mind, the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun were Renzong's regret in this life, but Renzong's wish could be changed without using weapons.Now that the lives of the two peoples in Yanyun Land are peaceful, who is willing to use force to fight?Did Renzong have some instructions?Now that Renzong has passed away, how do you know what Renzong was thinking at that time?

Yue Li went on to say: "Brother, let me ask you a question, who do you think is the one who can hold the land and become king without using swords and soldiers?"

Wang Pang didn't quite understand Yue Li's meaning, he looked at Yue Li, trying to find the answer from Yue Li's expression.

Yue Li sighed: "Oh! With my brother's friendship with neighboring countries, and my brother's financial resources, if you want to take back the land of Yanyun through a commercial war, you might as well give it a try."

Wang Pang suddenly realized, his heart moved but he calmed down immediately, at the moment he was most concerned about Yuexia: "What Yanyun is not Yanyun, Brother Yue, it's not that I love beautiful women and not Jiangshan, I can't even protect my wife, Why are you talking about Yanyun sixteen prefectures?" Wang Pang thought that his wife was now in Zhao Shu's hands, no wonder the messenger was afraid.

Yue Li was also worried about this matter: "There are rumors in the palace that the emperor wanted to announce the edict when he was dying. He said the edict, but the queen was upset and worried that the country would not be stable. Please come to the prime minister to discuss it. The prime minister said: The emperor rolls his name and Zhao Shu ascends the throne."

The imperial edict Zhao Shu.God knows that this blunder has become history!

Wang Bang understood why the new emperor was afraid that he would return to the capital. If the edict was revealed, his country would have nothing to do.If I don't go back and float outside, what will the military power use to compete with Liao for the land of Yanyun?This is the real purpose of the new emperor.

Wang Pang looked at Yue Li, he calmed down now, if he was in a hurry to return to the capital, then he would not be the one who died.His father, Wang Anshi, will do his best to protect himself, as well as his adoptive father, Bao Zheng.When the new emperor came to the throne to weaken the old officials and cultivate his own power, he would not only implicate his relatives, but even Yuexia's life might be lost.

Four years, four years of Zhao Shu's reign, Wang Pang was thinking about how to spend these four years safely.But let him bear it for four years, how can he bear it? "Brother Yue, who told you this? Is there any proof?"
