The first emperor of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 47
Regarding Cai Jing's resignation, Zhao Huan was not surprised at all. He nodded and said, "Young and the boss are back. The grand master has dedicated most of his life to the court. It's time to go home and enjoy his old age."

Hearing Cai Jing's words, his body was in short order. Although his hometown is good, it lacks the prosperity of Bianjing City. However, the new emperor has already granted his resignation, so it seems that he can't leave.

After Cai Jing came out of the palace, he seemed to be ten years older. Although he had expected that Zhao Huan would do something to him, he didn't expect it to come so soon.

When Cai Jing arrived home, he found a lot of imperial guards standing at the door.

Seeing Cai Jing coming back, Zhang Xian came out from the crowd, bowed to Cai Jing, and said, "Grand Master Cai, the official ordered me to come and help Grand Master Cai pack up."

Hearing this, Cai Jing opened his eyes wide in surprise, and looked at the Yulin Army in front of him. He knew that Zhao Huan was determined to let him go this time. All sent.

"Thank you for the love from the officials. Everyone, please wait outside the mansion for a while. Let me go home and pack up my things before we set off again." Cai Jing's words were filled with endless sadness.

Zhang Xian didn't make it difficult for him. The order he received was to let him watch Cai Jing leave in order to prevent him from causing trouble secretly. At this time, he was not allowed to contact anyone.

"Grand Master Cai still has to hold on tight. Now that the enemy is at hand, it is impossible for the brothers to wait here for too long." Zhang Xian said to Cai Jing.

"You guys can go and get busy if you have something to do, and I didn't ask you to stay here." Cai Jing slandered in his heart, but he never dared to say such words. He knew what the Yulin Army meant, and it was Zhao Huan. the meaning of.

Cai Jing returned to the mansion, and Cai Gui, the steward of the Cai mansion, rushed to greet him, "Master, it's too bad, this group of Imperial Forest Army came outside the mansion at noon, and the people in the mansion are not allowed to come in and out, what should we do?"

Cai Jing waved his hands when he heard this, and said to Cai Gui: "Clean up your clothes, let's leave Bianjing tonight and go home!"

Cai Jing squeezed out the last two words of going home from his mouth, which was mixed with a lot of unwillingness and bitterness.

There are too many things in Cai Jing's house, it is impossible to pack them all up and take them away, time is urgent, he can only take the money accumulated in the mansion for so many years on the road, his idea is very simple, as long as he takes With money, he can buy anything he wants.

But Cai Jing's idea was a little naive, which became the direct cause of Cai Jing's death.

In the evening, Cai Jing had finished tidying up, and there were as many as ten carts full of gold, silver and jewelry alone.

"General Zhang, the things at home have been cleaned up, and we are ready to leave at any time, but my unsatisfactory sixth boy has not returned yet, and I have already sent someone to call for him. When he arrives, we will leave." Cai Jing said to Zhang Xian.

Zhang Xian bowed to Cai Jing and said: "Teacher Cai, Lord Li Gang has led his troops to Xifang City to arrest all the Dongjiang gang members over there. If the sixth son is involved in this matter, then I advise Mrs. Master still doesn't have to wait, so as not to delay the time to go out of the city and offend His Majesty."

Hearing this statement, Cai Jing raised his head and glanced at Zhang Xian in front of him in surprise, and said, "The six boys in my family are also involved?"

Hearing what Cai Jing said, Zhang Xian shrugged his shoulders, and said: "The grand master asked the wrong person. Whether it is involved or not, the grand master should be clearer than the general at the end. Zhang is a martial artist. It is a major event in the court. I am not sure."

Cai Jing could hear the irony in Zhang Xian's mouth, but he was speechless when he wanted to refute. When Cai Jing gained power, he publicly stated that generals should not pay too much attention to important affairs in the court. Give it back to him.

"General Zhang, can you allow Lao Zhuo to go to Mr. Li and find out about the situation of the six boys?" Cai Jing can be said to be really humble now, directly claiming that he is Lao Zhuo. Although the six boys are usually the most disobedient, but at this time , as an old father, he still hopes to save his son.

"Teacher, I would like to advise you to hurry up and leave. I believe you are aware of what the Sixth Young Master committed. Don't let this cause you to end badly!" Zhang Xian said.

With these words, Cai Jing's body froze right there.

If it was a few years ago, who would have dared to speak like this in front of Cai Jing, but now, in 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, a small military governor would dare to curse Cai Jing face to face like this.

Finally, Cai Jing led the people away helplessly. After getting into the chariot, Cai Jing opened the curtain and looked out, two lines of dirty tears not only slipped from the corners of his eyes.

Zhang Xian and others escorted Cai Jing away from Nancheng, and then returned to Zhao Huan.

Li Gang and Zhu Shengfei were in Zhao Huan's imperial study, Li Gang said to Zhao Huan, "Your Majesty, letting Cai Jing leave at this time is a critical moment for the two armies to fight. If Cai Jing surrenders to the enemy, it will be at a great disadvantage to our army."

Zhao Huan waved his hand, and said indifferently: "It's okay, Cai Jing is already an octogenarian, even if I don't kill him, he won't live for a few days, and it's fair and easy, it's not certain whether Cai Jing will be able to return home alive this way. .”

Hearing this, Li Gang secretly thought that Zhao Huan had ordered someone to kill Cai Jing on the way back to his hometown, so he nodded and said no more.

Zhao Huan knew that Li Gang and Li Gang misunderstood what he meant, so he said: "Cai Jing has been in charge of the government for seventeen years, causing complaints from the people. This time Cai Jing has a long journey back to his hometown, but he only brought the gold and silver that he has looted over the years. Jewelry, it is not certain whether food can be bought from the people along the way."

It is said that money can turn ghosts, Zhu Shengfei and Li Gang didn't take what Zhao Huan said, they only thought that Zhao Huan wanted to let Cai Jing go, until Cai Jing really starved to death on the way At the time, the two were surprised to find that Zhao Huan was not predictable, and their admiration for Zhao Huan increased a little.

Now the two of them came to Zhao Huan mainly to discuss how to solve the future life of the disabled soldiers that Zhao Huan had proposed in the morning.

"Your Majesty, it's not that I want to hold you back. It's because of the tense wars and internal and external difficulties in recent years. The household department really doesn't have any extra money to support these people." Zhu Shengfei said to Zhao Huan with a distressed expression.

After listening to Zhu Shengfei's complaints, Zhao Huan also understood Zhu Shengfei's difficulties in his heart. His cheap old man has been emperor for decades, and he squandered all the money in the treasury. Now he is really poor.
