The first-class concubine of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 75 Shocked
The capital is windy and cold, and all parties are ready to go.

On the morning of the second day after the envoys of the Southern Tang Dynasty and Wuyue Kingdom entered Beijing, Liu Wei took them into the palace.

In the early morning of this day, after the officials of the Great Song Dynasty discussed the state affairs, Zhao Kuangyin ordered people to announce that the envoys of the Southern Tang Dynasty and Wu Yue had an audience. , Then salute to Zhao Kuangyin.

After the ceremony, Zhao Kuangyin said: "The Southern Tang Dynasty, Wuyue and our Song Dynasty have always been on good terms with each other. This time we have trade relations between the three countries. What do the envoys of the two countries think?"

After Zhao Kuangyin finished speaking, Han Xizai, the envoy of the Southern Tang Dynasty, said: "The three countries have opened up trade with each other and increased mutual understanding. My Lord of the Southern Tang Dynasty is very much in favor of it."

Qian Weikai frowned slightly, but he stood up and said, "My Lord Wuyue also agrees."

Zhao Kuangyin smiled and nodded: "Since both countries agree, it will be easy to handle. I have given full authority to Honglu Temple Shaoqing Liu Wei to take charge of this matter. Choose a time, and you will negotiate with each other on trade matters, and then draw up a plan." Submit the terms."

The envoys of the Southern Tang Dynasty and Wuyue Kingdom looked at each other and saluted each other, "Obey!"

The envoys of the two countries retreated after finishing speaking, but Liu Wei stayed in the hall, because Zhao Kuangyin had something to tell him about the negotiation.

"The matter of commerce must be very complicated. Liu Aiqing can figure it out slowly. We might as well let go of some interests, but the refined salt must be extended to the Southern Tang and Wuyue countries."

After Zhao Kuangyin finished speaking, Liu Wei quickly nodded: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I understand what to do."

After Liu Wei finished speaking, Zhao Pu immediately stood up and said, "We are all relieved that Prince Consort Liu is here for the business, but since the envoys of the Southern Tang Dynasty and Wuyue Kingdom entered the territory of our Great Song Dynasty, they have suffered many times. Assassination, this matter cannot be delayed any longer, please ask the emperor to judge."

Zhao Pu started, and the ministers immediately expressed their opinions on the assassination of the envoys of the Southern Tang Dynasty and Wuyue Kingdom, but even though they were opinions, in Liu Wei's opinion, it was more like the unwarranted anger of the cynics.

After these people finished speaking, Zhao Kuangyin showed a slight smile: "I have handed over this matter to the King of Wei. I believe that with the skills of King Wei's Suzaku Army, it should not be difficult to catch those assassins, right?"

When Zhao Kuangyin said this, most of the people were stunned. Zhao Pu had been in the court for many years and was Zhao Kuangyin's think tank. Now that he suddenly heard Zhao Kuangyin say this, he quickly understood Zhao Kuangyin's intentions, and he understood Zhao Kuangyin's intentions. After making intentions, his brows frowned slightly and his heart sank, but he stopped talking.

He knew that Zhao Kuangyin wanted to check and balance the king of Jin, but in this way, the court of the Song Dynasty would no longer be peaceful, and he, Zhao Pu, had to make a choice as soon as possible, whether to support the emperor, or to support the king of Jin or the king of Wei, this is a problem , if you are a little careless, you may lose your reputation and lose your reputation forever.

After Liu Wei was stunned for a moment, he quickly realized that a person like him who seldom set foot in the court would not be able to understand the things behind it, but he was not ignorant of the situation in the court, and Zhao Kuangyinxiong was roughly How could he pass his throne to King Jin even if he dared to wear a yellow robe?

Now that the matter of arresting the assassins is handed over to the king of Wei, it is obvious that he wants to suppress the king of Jin.

After thinking about this, Liu Wei also remained silent. If a person wants to live longer, he should know when to be smart and when to be confused.

The King of Jin already knew this, but after Zhao Kuangyin said this, he still showed a little surprised look, and then stood up and said: "Recently, the Kaifeng Mansion is busy, and the matter of catching the assassins is handed over to the King of Wei, which just divides the ministers." worries."

Hearing what King Jin said, Zhao Kuangyin nodded slightly. He knew very well that his younger brother was a smart man, and a smart man knew what to do when.

After retreating from the imperial court, the wind in the capital became stronger, Liu Wei tightened his clothes, and he was about to return home. There was no rush to negotiate with the envoys of the two countries. Although he had already made preparations, he still felt that it was better to start the negotiations tomorrow. OK.

And just as he was walking towards the Princess's Mansion, a guard from Wuyue Kingdom suddenly came to Liu Wei and said, "Master Liu, my lord would like to invite you to the Fugui Building for a small talk."

Hearing these words, Liu Wei felt a little doubtful in his heart, and said, "If you want to have a shallow talk, wouldn't it be the same to go to the posthouse?"

"My lord said that he didn't want the envoys of the Southern Tang Dynasty to know, so please forgive me, Mr. Liu."

Liu Wei didn't understand what Dongyue King Qian Weikai was going to do, but he still decided to go to Fuguilou. In this capital city, he didn't believe what Qian Weikai could do in Fuguilou.

Fugui Building is actually not rich, it is just a very ordinary inn, there are not many guests on weekdays, when Liu Wei walked into Fugui Building, the owner of Fugui Building was settling accounts, the waiter shrank his neck and rubbed his hands, three or five guests Sit around and drink.

Liu Wei walked into the Fugui Building, and was about to ask the waiter, but before he could open his mouth, he suddenly felt a cold wind blowing from his back, and an indescribable chill came to his heart.

"not good!"

Somewhere in the capital, Yeluqi and Fu Yao were sitting opposite each other. Yeluqi's eyes were bright, with a slight smile on his lips: "Master Fu, our plan has succeeded."

Fu Yao nodded: "As long as Liu Wei enters the Fugui Building, he will never get out alive." Speaking of this, Fu Yao sighed softly: "It's just a pity that those spies in the Fugui Building, Liu Wei was killed in the Fugui Building , The Song court will not let Fuguilou go."

Yeluqi nodded slightly, but he didn't show any reluctance. He just smiled and said, "What's the problem? As long as the goal can be achieved, I don't care how many more people are sacrificed."

Fu Yao smiled slightly. He naturally knew that Yeluqi was the kind of person who would never give up until he reached his goal. To him, human life was worthless, and everything was just to serve his goal.

"Then Qian Weikai, the king of Dongyue in Wuyue, has he been notified?"

"Don't worry, I have ordered someone to pretend to be Liu Wei's servant to write to him. If he doesn't go to the Fugui Building, this scene will only be half done."

Hearing Fu Yao's words, Yeluqi smiled knowingly again. Since he wanted to blame Liu Wei's death on people from Nantang or Wuyue, if people from Nantang or Wuyue didn't go to Fugui Building, he How to blame it?Wuyue's Dongyue King Qian Weikai is good at martial arts and has a bad temper. He has the ability to kill Liu Wei, so it is perfect to let him go.
-
The wind in Kaifeng City is very cold. Although Qian Weikai is burly, he still shrinks his neck when walking on the street. He has never seen such a cold wind, and he has never seen such a cold weather in Wuyue.

He was walking on the street, looking around from time to time. He was not familiar with Kaifeng City, so he didn't know where the Fugui Building was. Then, he really didn't understand why Liu Wei invited him to the Fugui Building alone for a talk.

When he went to meet the emperor of the Song Dynasty today, he also met Liu Wei, but not long after the morning court, why did he have to see himself alone?
Qian Wei opened his eyebrows and condensed slightly, so full of thoughts that he didn't listen to what the boy said at all.

There were people coming and going on the streets of Kaifeng City, and a few heated arguments could be heard from time to time. While Qian Weikai was thinking about it, the servant in front suddenly said, "My lord, the Fugui Building is here."

The door of Fugui Building was closed, and it was very quiet inside. There was a slight smile on the corner of the boy's mouth, and then he wanted to ask Qian Wei to drive in, but when his hand was about to push open the door of Fugui Building, he suddenly noticed a trace of Strangely, he saw blood between the cracks in the door.

The blood was still wet, and it was still flowing down drop by drop, but when the boy saw the blood, his doubts suddenly completely disappeared. He was the one who understood Yeluqi's whole plan, so in his opinion, seeing the blood was a It's normal. If there is no blood, it will be abnormal.

"Please!" The hand that was about to push the door stopped suddenly, and the boy's push turned into a gesture of please. Qian Weikai looked at the closed door and suddenly realized that it was not good. He had a faint feeling that he might be fooled , but he didn't leave.

I don't know why, when he saw the smile on the corner of the boy's mouth, he was suddenly very angry, and the anger made him want to know what was going on, so after the boy said a word of please, he suddenly He kicked the door open, and before the boy was about to take the opportunity to slip away, he reached out to grab him and walked in.

There were several corpses lying in the Fugui Building, each corpse was horrible, and among these corpses, a man was sitting on the side drinking, the man drank very slowly, and drank lightly.

When Qian Weikai saw that person, he was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened, and he asked, "What does Master Liu mean?"

Liu Wei smiled slightly, and put down the wine glass: "I don't mean anything, I just think that you and I have been taken advantage of."

Although Qian Weikai likes to rush and kill, he has resourcefulness, so when he heard Liu Wei's words, he immediately cast his eyes on the boy who was subdued by him: "Who are you?"

Before he could finish speaking, the boy suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, kicked his feet slightly on the ground twice, and died.

Qian Weikai snorted coldly, threw the servant in his hand aside, and then looked at Liu Weiwei: "He said it was your servant, and said you want to see me here?"

Liu Wei pointed to a corpse under his feet: "He said he was your bodyguard, and he also said that the prince wants to meet you here."

Both of them understood. Judging from the number of corpses in Fuguilou, someone wanted to kill Liu Wei, and then put the blame on Dongyue King Qian Weikai, but the assassin did not expect that all the people he sent would be killed by Liu Wei. .

When Liu Wei understood, he looked at Qian Wei and smiled: "Since the prince is not inviting me, then the two of us should leave this place of right and wrong. I, King Wei of the Song Dynasty, will deal with these corpses."
