Compete for the Song Dynasty

Qin Minxue really gave Zhao Xu a bit of a headache. It is said that he was injured for himself, so it should be a reward, but Wang Pang asked, this guy is purely self-inflicted. Shi also thought about it, and there was nothing to say when he asked him again. The two looked at Wang Pang with consulting eyes at the same time, as if they were waiting for Wang Pang's decision.

Wang Pang looked at Qin Minxue and said coldly: "Qin Shaofu originally wanted to favor this king, but it can be regarded as leaving a way out for yourself."

Qin Minxue lowered his head not to look at Wang Pang's sharp gaze like a blade, Wang Pang turned to Zhao Xu and said, "My lord, I think I have already asked Qin Shaofu what I wanted to ask."

Zhao Xu hurriedly asked: "Then according to Zhennan King's opinion, how to deal with this matter."

Wang Pang glanced at Qin Minxue, who was kneeling on the Japanese slave and looked pitiful: "Should I say it now and wait for him to find a way to tell Lin Xiuxiu?" [

It's not that Qin Minxue didn't want to know, Wang Pang's words were right in his mind, seeing that Wang Pang told him that he had more to say, so he could only lower his head a little deeper, Zhao Xu coldly ordered Qin Minxue to back down, Qin Minxue listened to Zhao Xu Xu's tone made his heart turn cold. When he exited the dingy Chui Gong Palace, he thought of Yingzong who had passed away, feeling wronged and complaining in his heart. Up to now, Yingzong has fallen behind a wise man who ignores the past and reuses the virtuous; and the grievances between himself and the king are getting deeper and deeper, and what is even more terrible is that the official position of the king is always higher than himself, and he subconsciously silently Wusha shook her head, knowing that sooner or later the Wusha cap would not be kept.

After a while of silence in the Chuigong Hall, Zhao Xu asked, "King Zhennan, if I order you to try this case, will you pursue the real culprit?"

"Yes." Wang Pang replied resolutely, then looked at Zhao Xu frowning and said: "Brother Wang, I understand your mood, and you and I are aware of the situation at that time, but if the real murderer is dealt with, I'm afraid things will become serious." It's not good for my Da Song's reputation!"

"Then the Holy Majesty will let Xiaoyao, surnamed Lin, go down." Wang Pang looked directly at Zhao Xu and said, "If the Holy Majesty is not determined to solve this matter thoroughly, then he may face more troubles in the future, what will we do then. "

Zhao Xu stood up, walked to the Long Shuan, looked at the piles of memorials piled up on the table, now he felt more and more that every decision he made was not so easy, he turned around for a long time He looked at the king and said, "Since the king of Zhennan already knows the surname Lin, this person is related to a decision made by the ancestors."

"Then let me ask you, is Song Taizu wrong?"

In the whole world, who would dare to say that Song Taizu was wrong, Wang Pang was taken aback by Zhao Xu's question, and wanted to refute, but he kept asking himself such a question in his heart, and for a while, Zheng was there and didn't know how to answer it.

Wang Pang slowed down his tone: "The country of the Great Song Dynasty is as solid as gold now, no matter how unwilling Lin is, no one is willing to toss about the court or the people, but if you don't make a decision, let alone say that Lin's ancestor is Chai Zongxun, Even if the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms all jumped out and said that Song had seized their country, wouldn't they all be pursuing it?"

"But this person surnamed Song has an iron scroll of Danshu in his hand!" Zhao Xu said in a difficult way.

Wang Pang shook his head: "Taizu's legacy, don't embarrass the descendants of Chai Zongxun, but he has changed his surname to Lin, how can he be a descendant of Chai Zongxun? Besides, not being embarrassing does not mean that he will not be convicted. Convicting him alone will not harm the nine clans." , and he must be completely classified as a commoner, and he can enter the court as an official without discrimination, which shows the true benevolence of the Taizu."

Zhao Xu sighed: "What brother Wang said is very true, but now Sima Guang, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, is in charge of this matter. You also know that this Minister of Sima is not only old-fashioned, but also ordered by the Empress Dowager. I'm afraid..."

"You are afraid of Sima Guang. You are afraid of him because the former emperor ordered you to seek his opinion more, but the former emperor did not say to let him be your master, Zhong Zhen. Now that you are the emperor, you are also an adult. You have to know what you want to do!"

Zhao Xu thought about Wang Pang's words. Although he knew that Wang Pang was right, he still felt that if he did something that would cause controversy among the old and middle court officials now, would it affect his prestige: "You It's easy to say, aren't you afraid of him? You are not afraid of him, you go and close the case. "

"Okay! The minister accepts the order."

"You, how dare you!."

Wang Pang patted the gold medal that was bestowed by Emperor Renzong on his waist and said: "The one surnamed Lin has the iron scroll of Dan Shu, and I have the gold medal bestowed by the imperial court. Do court officials dare to impeach me for doing this?"

"Well, that's hard to say." Zhao Xu replied uncertainly, "If an official is impeached, will His Majesty punish me?"

"That won't be the case." Zhao Xu looked at the gold medal next to the king and replied affirmatively.

"Hahaha, shouldn't this be resolved? The Holy Majesty will issue an order. I want to see Lin Xiuxiu." [

Knowing that Wang Pang was anxious to know his son's whereabouts, Zhao Xu immediately wrote down an imperial decree at his desk, allowing Wang Pang to go to the official prison to investigate the assassination case of Lin Xiuxiu of the Golden Lotus Society.

Coming out of the palace, Wang Pang went straight to the Ministry of Officials. It was very easy to see Lin Xiuxiu. With the imperial decree in his arms, he told Ming that Lin Xiuxiu knew the whereabouts of his missing son, so Sima Guang did not stop him. He suffered a lot of crimes, and now he looks haggard. When he heard someone summoned, he was pushed into the lobby by the guards. When he saw that it was King Zhennan who came to interrogate him, he couldn't help but burst into tears. He couldn't tell whether he was wronged or saw hope.

Wang Pang asked straightforwardly. Now that he was eager to know the whereabouts of his son, Lin Xiuxiu hurriedly explained the whole story. It turned out that it happened by coincidence that when Lin Xiuxiu was spreading the news to find a child, he received a message from the Hangzhou General Assembly. A sister met a strange guest, who was not looking for pleasure, but seemed to be hiding in a brothel to avoid someone, but the prostitute took good care of her, and the two gradually developed a friendship. The guest officer was often drunk, When he was drunk, he was very sad, and always said that he had offended Baishi God and would be punished by heaven. Finally, one day, in the conversation, he said that he was not from the Song Dynasty, but that he was useless in martial arts. He hid himself to avoid being chased by the Xixia people. When he arrived here, he was the one who captured Goddess Baishi, and he was the one who took away someone's child. When asked whose child he took away, he didn't say anything. He encountered a lot of misfortunes, and his martial arts were abolished. Later, when the sister asked what is Baishi God, he described a Baishi God. In order to prove that Baishi God really existed, he said that the child who was taken away by him also had such a mark on his arm .

After hearing this, Wang Pang gradually understood that his child was indeed taken away by the Xixia people. No wonder no one knew the whereabouts of the child. The only person who knew the whereabouts of the child was unfortunate, and his own life was hanging by a thread, and Wang Pang couldn't understand Why is this person in the Song Dynasty at this time, and something happened in Xixia, forcing Liang Yibu and Liang Luoyao to do this.

"Where is that person now?" Wang Pang hurriedly asked.

Lin Xiuxiu said in a low voice: "My lord, this matter was received before arriving in the capital, and I have not received any news since then."

Wang Pang screamed in his heart: Even if he knew that the child was carried by Xixia back then, and now he doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, let alone where, if he can't find this person, the news just now may break the clue again. He said with a calm face: "Miss Lin, don't worry, I will definitely do what I promised you. Now, please tell the Holy Spirit what you have told the Holy One before, about someone framing the Golden Lotus Society."

In the lobby, only Wang Pang was there. The King of Zhennan came to ask about the case in person, and the Minister of the Ministry of Officials and the officials who interrogated the case must also be present. Everyone looked at each other when they heard what Wang Pang said, and no one listened to Lin Xiuxiu. It was mentioned that she had told the Holy Majesty about this matter!Lin Xiuxiu couldn't help but look up at Wang.

Wang Pang said lightly: "I'm afraid that you are not aware of the fact that the former emperor passed away and the crown prince ascended the throne. The current emperor is even the prince of Yongzhou."

Lin Xiuxiu was not stupid, and she felt as if a light had been lit in her heart. Qin Minxue would have been pretending to be the prince, and the real prince was the fake prince who claimed to be the younger brother of Wang Pang at that time. His father framed him, and his adoptive father, Lin Bo, who was from Hangzhou, was the mastermind of assassinating the prince. Because he used the sisters from the Golden Lotus Society to serve as official prostitutes in the army, he knew a lot of news about the court and the army, and even more powerful people treated him Protect it, and ask the king of Zhennan to make decisions for the little girl and the sisters of the Golden Lotus Society."

"Bold and unreasonable woman, talking nonsense." Sima Guang slapped the gavel. It's not that he doesn't know these things, but they are related to the reputation of the imperial court. What's more, he knows Lin Bo's name, and he knows the inside story behind the scenes even better.

"Sima Shangshu, a weak woman, why are you so angry? I've asked what I should have asked." Wang Bang didn't want Sima Guang to make a decision in front of him at all. , Now he wants to fight for a time difference before Sima Guang can't react.

And Sima Guang didn't want Wang Pang to continue asking, so he announced his withdrawal, and Lin Xiuxiu was detained again.

Wang Pang stood up and bid farewell to Sima Guang, while Sima Guang personally accompanied Wang Pang out of the official office, and sent Wang Pang off politely, while Sima Guang tentatively asked: "The king of Zhennan is here, there should be some What I have learned is that the suspicious person in Hangzhou, I will send someone to investigate immediately."

"The harvest is not small, and I am also worried about the whereabouts of the dog. Since there is a decree from the sage, I will personally send someone to investigate the suspicious person, especially you and I have also heard about Lin Bo just now. It is easy for the officials to send people to investigate. "Wang Pang seemed to speak plainly, and he had plans in his heart. Sima Guang was misled by Wang Pang's words, and he also thought that Wang Pang's focus was not on Lin Bo, so he returned with a smile: "Exactly, exactly, Lin Bo It's better not to make any big noises about the matter, the new emperor has just ascended the throne, and it would be best to have a steady transition."

Wang Pang nodded, this Sima Guang now has a high position and authority, of course it is for him to seek stability, otherwise he would not have become the biggest obstacle to his father Wang Anshi during the reform in Xining in history, but, Sima Guang in history did bring many obstacles to Wang Anshi, but it was impossible for him to prevent Wang Pang from doing anything, including the current one.
