King of Song

Chapter 82 Emperor's mind
Tang Jie is currently a political adviser, and his official rank is Zaifu, and he is also a banner of admonishing officials in the Song Dynasty. The courtesy after his death must be very grand.

Coupled with the impact of the Ayun case this time, it is even more special and has attracted much attention.

Many speech officials took Tang Jie as a role model, a role model, and a teacher. At this moment, they were filled with righteous indignation, and they believed that Tang Xianggong was pissed off by Lin Zhao, so they handed over impeachment memorials one after another.While paying homage to Tang Xianggong, they also waited for the court's handling opinion.

The prime ministers were also very low-key and did not speak easily. Maybe they were waiting for the public anger to subside, maybe they were waiting for the result of the Dengzhou review, maybe they were waiting for the emperor Zhao Xu to express his opinion...

Unexpectedly, Emperor Zhao Xu didn't delay, let alone practice Tai Chi. He took the responsibility very readily and quickly took practical actions.

It is definitely a great honor for the officials to come to mourn Tang Jie in person. If Mr. Tang knew, he might be able to smile.But the official family didn't come alone, they also brought the protagonist Lin Zhao who was at the forefront of the storm.

After receiving a summons from the official family, waiting at Daqingmen to go to mourn Tang Jie together, Lin Zhao knew that the trouble had turned.At least the emperor Zhao Xu is willing to help himself in this matter, so the matter of punching King Qi may naturally be revealed.

However, one cannot become a fat man with one bite, everything has to be done step by step, mourning Tang Jie is only the first step, but it is already a good beginning.

For Lin Zhao, there is no deep hatred between him and Tang Jie, and the current situation is completely an accident.It's a pity that this matter was not caught by people, and was even used by people with ulterior motives, so it was magnified a lot, and all the blame was aimed at the somewhat innocent Lin Zhao.

The dead are the greatest, since Mr. Tang has unfortunately passed away, so why not take a step back in order to solve the problem?What's more, the emperor asked you to do this. Youdao doesn't look at the monk's face and the Buddha's face. Moreover, Tang Jie himself is considered an elder, so it is appropriate to go to mourn and pay homage.

So Lin Zhao rushed to Daqing Gate early, Emperor Zhao Xu just glanced at him and left without saying anything, Lin Zhao had no choice but to follow closely.

Zhao Xu on the chariot couldn't help laughing, Lin Zhao was a troublemaker and caused a lot of trouble.But these troubles are undoubtedly of great benefit to him, and it is really a coincidence, is this guy a crooked one, or a born lucky general?

When the official came, the whole family of the Tang family came out to welcome them in fear.However, Zhao Xu waved his hand to excuse him, and went to condolences in front of Tang Xianggong's spirit in person, and then said: "Dongyang, you will burn incense for Tang Xianggong for me!"

There were quite a few officials who came to pay homage to Lin Zhao today, and many of them looked viciously at Lin Zhao, with ferocious eyes, as if they had revenge on Lin Zhao for killing his father.Tang Xianggong is so angry that he still has the face to sacrifice?Some people made up their minds that if Lin Zhao went to offer incense, they would come forward to stop him from stepping down.

But now, the officials asked Lin Zhao to offer incense... Lin Zhao was the actor, but he represented the officials, who would dare to stop him?
There are still many caring people who understand it, knowing that the memorials of impeachment will be a pile of waste paper, and the meaning of the officials is very clear.Just like at this moment, Lin Zhao was only the spokesperson of the official family from the beginning to the end. Anyone who does not have the eyes to impeach Lin Zhao will be looking for boredom and death...

Of course, the emperor Zhao Xu never treated Tang Jie badly. Before he left, he posthumously awarded Tang Jie the Minister of Rites and gave him the posthumous title "Quality Su".The so-called conclusion of the coffin is nothing more than that, and the evaluation given is quite high. Tang Xianggong is considered complete in his lifetime and posthumous names.

After coming out of the Tang Mansion, Lin Zhaocai completely recalled that the seemingly serious matter was easily resolved by the emperor with such a trick.Lin Zhao quickly realized a problem. He had underestimated the emperor Zhao Xu before, but in terms of power and strategy, he was still far behind.

First help yourself to solve the first difficulty, then what will happen to the second one?Lin Zhao couldn't ask, but the emperor didn't say anything, so he sent him back first...

Lin Zhao knew that this was a good sign, just wait and see what happened.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Emperor Zhao Xu seemed to be a firefighter, because it was a bit late to mourn Tang Jie, so he went to see the Empress Dowager Gao Taotao in the afternoon of the next day.

"Meet the queen mother!"

"Huh! Huang'er is very busy recently, you should pay attention to your body!" Gao Taotao smiled all over his face.

"My son is fine, don't worry, empress!" Song Shi's prince directly addressed his aunt as empress, which was relatively casual.

"I heard that the emperor went to mourn Tang Xianggong? He brought Lin Zhao?" Gao Taotao seemed to have something in his words, and some complained that Zhao Xu came too late.

Zhao Xu's face changed slightly, and he returned to normal in an instant. He nodded and said, "Go back to your mother, yes!"

"Mr. Tang is a veteran of the three dynasties. It is appropriate to go to condolences, but Lin Zhao... your younger brother was injured by him the day before yesterday. What do you think the emperor should do?"

"Your Majesty, I have already sent someone to investigate, and there is something wrong with my brother..."

Before Zhao Xu finished speaking, he was robbed by Gao Taotao and said: "Even though your younger brother has something wrong, he is a dignified prince after all. If a small master dares to offend the majesty of the Tian family, he should be punished severely."

"What do you think?" Zhao Xu was very low-key. After all, Gao Taotao is his biological mother, and some respect is necessary.

Empress Dowager Gao Taotao doted on her second son, and she had long been resentful towards Lin Zhao. When she saw the eldest son's attitude again, she was even more annoyed and said, "Jiaozongzheng Temple and Dali Temple will jointly approve and convict him according to the law!"

"Mother, I'm afraid it's inappropriate. If we really want to judge according to the law, I'm afraid Zhongming will not be spared..." Zhao Xu objected softly.

Gao Taotao said displeasedly: "What's wrong, is it possible that you have to punish your younger brother?"

"Mother, this is the memorandum handed over by Chai Xiao, together with other investigations and narratives, it was indeed Zhong Ming and the others who were flirtatious and frivolous at the time, which caused the conflict..." Zhao Xu explained: "What's more, there are rumors everywhere now, It was Zhongming who failed to buy Lin Zhaobai's horse and deliberately found fault, and the public opinion was very unfavorable to Zhongming."

"How could such a thing happen?" Gao Taotao shook his head and said, "So what about gossip? Just based on one point, it is a felony for Lin Zhao to punch the prince!"

"Your Majesty, you can question Zhongming's servant He, and you will know everything!" Zhao Xu said, "There are rumors that Zhongming is bullying others. If Dali Temple is really involved and Lin Zhao is severely sentenced, I'm afraid the result will be on my younger brother. has a bad reputation..."

Hey, no!Gao Taotao heard something unusual from the mouth of the emperor's eldest son...

"Then how does the emperor plan to deal with this matter?" Gao Taotao suppressed the anger and doubt in his heart, and asked softly.

Zhao Xu pondered for a moment, and said: "Both parties are at fault in this matter, let alone the daughter of the Chai family is involved. Taizu Taizong once taught that he should treat the descendants of the Chai family well, so... let's make room for both parties in this matter." ?”

"Each step back? Could it be that your younger brother was beaten in vain? It's true that the emperor treats his courtiers kindly, but do you want to ignore the brotherhood?" Gao Taotao never expected Zhao Xu to say such words, and he was suddenly furious.

"I just want to care about the brotherhood!" Zhao Xu took out another memorial while speaking, and continued: "Your Majesty, look at this..."

Gao Taotao took it and saw that it was an official named Zhang Piguang Shangshu. The content was that King Qi was old and should move out of the palace and live alone...

"Bastard, this person is so audacious, he dared to provoke a discord between the royal family..." Gao Taotao was furious, and threw the memorial out...

When I turned around, I happened to see the complex expression in the eyes of the eldest son Zhao Xu, and my heart was shocked. Could it be...

She was originally an extremely intelligent woman, well versed in tactics, and she was eager to love her son just now, but she was dazzled by anger, so much so that she ignored many details.

This will react and realize that the body is far more serious than imagined.Gao Taotao stared blankly at the eldest son, his mind was full of shock, even fear...
