The rise of the late Song Dynasty reigns supreme

Chapter 218 Forced Palace ([-])

"This disobedient son, how dare..." Zhao Si spit out a mouthful of blood in anger.At this moment, he wished he could kill his son with a single knife, ruining his fame for the rest of his life, and all of this was done by his own son, which made him feel so embarrassing.

He didn't know if he didn't investigate, but when he investigated, it was beyond his expectation. His son, who had always thought he was well-behaved and obedient, actually did such a rebellious thing in a frenzy.Not only secretly buying people's hearts, but also cultivating influence and building a secret organization, trying to overthrow the Song Dynasty and seize the throne.

The most unbearable thing for him is that the person behind the corruption case was his son, who secretly dispatched people to make arrangements, and took advantage of the ambitions of Cai Jing and Tong Guan to reap the benefits of being a fisherman from it, in vain , Disregarding the life and death of the people.

In addition, Zhao Si also found out that his son not only cultivated power, but also secretly trained a group of dead soldiers, which is not a small amount of strength.Seeing his son's crimes in front of him, Zhao Si was so angry that he sat down limply in his anger.

Faced with his son's crimes, Zhao Sizhen didn't know how to deal with it, let alone how to do it.For his son, Zhao Si only felt guilty. All these years, he had devoted his mind to the court and had no intention of running the family. Zhao Yougong's growth lacked his concern. He just accompanied him for more than ten years, and he had never seen him since. guilt.

In his opinion, everything Zhao Yougong did was due to his own responsibility, and Zhao Si felt helpless besides anger, more of it was heartache.However, the current situation does not allow him to continue to think, and he traced out that Ye Mengde is a member of that organization, holding a very important thing in his hand, and he must go to Ye Mansion to get it back.

Although Zhao Si also felt that it was inappropriate, he went to the palace to discuss with Song Huizong in advance. The moment he saw Zhao Ji, Zhao Si knelt down for the first time and bowed his head and said: "Brother Huang, it's my brother's fault!"

Song Huizong gave a wry smile helplessly, Zhao seemed to be his younger brother, he knew how much he had done for him over the years, in his opinion Zhao Yougong was just a child no matter how wrong he was, and he didn't care about it at all.Zhao Ji understood the pain in Zhao Si's heart, but he didn't know what to do, but Zhao Si told him the truth.

"Thirteenth brother, there is no need to pursue this matter! As long as he turns around in time, I will let him go. After all, he is also my nephew, your only son." Song Huizong patted Zhao Si on the shoulder, helped him up, and solemnly said Said: "I know your pain now, sometimes I have to do this for the great Song Jiangshan, no matter what I say, I watched him grow up, it is impossible to do such a thing in his bones, he must be bewitched."

Zhao Si said bitterly: "Brother Huang!..."

"Don't worry, I won't kill him!" Zhao Ji reassured him, he thought the same way in his heart, as long as Zhao Yougong didn't do too much, then everything would be easy to handle, and if he really did something wrong, it would be hard to say, That is to tell Zhao Si to resolve the matter as soon as possible without delay.

"Brother Huang, I want to go to Ye Mansion to get something from Ye Meng!" Zhao Si adjusted his mood and remembered the purpose of coming this time. It is very important. If there is such a thing, everything can be stopped in time."

Zhao Ji readily agreed: "If that's the case, then you go, sometimes you have to come forward!"

Zhao Si nodded, then turned and left!
Zhao Ji thought of the news he had received, knowing that the person behind the scenes would be Zhao Yougong, he was also shocked, he was stunned, he never thought that he would be the one who betrayed him in the end, at that time he was also in a bad mood, muttering to himself Yu said: "You Gong, don't let me down!..."

The most important thing now is time, Zhao Xi didn't stop much, and went out of the palace directly to Ye's mansion.At this time, there are still people left by Zhao Gou guarding the mansion, and these people are all from the county prince's mansion, and they are also from Amber Villa, namely He Huan, Gong Cang, Huang Shi, and Yang Chan.

Seeing Zhao Si coming in person, the four of them couldn't help but greet them respectfully: "Villa Master!"

Zhao Si nodded and said: "You have already left the villa, so there is no need to salute! I have something to see him, so you should step back for now!"

Everyone retreated without thinking, they believed that Zhao Xi would not do anything to Ye Mengde.But they also wondered why Zhao Si came here in person.So, they thought about leaving the three of them to guard in the mansion, and the other went to the county prince's mansion to report the situation here to Zhao Gou.

Ye Mengde has been in the mansion for the past few days. He has nothing to do every day, such as reading and practicing calligraphy, or playing with flowers and plants. His life is quite leisurely, not as if he is in danger.At this time, Ye Mengde hadn't fallen asleep yet, and was reading at night with the lamp on.Suddenly, the door was pushed open, and without raising his head, he thought it was Zhao Gou who had come, and said lightly, "It's the same as many times I've been here, I have nothing to say, Prince, don't waste your time talking... ..."

The person who came still ignored his words and didn't reply, which made him a little curious, and he couldn't help raising his head. What caught his eyes was a familiar yet unfamiliar face. In the end, he settled down again, and said in surprise, "Wang... my lord!..."

Zhao Xi said casually: "I didn't expect you to still remember me. In a blink of an eye, you are already this old. I don't know what happened to your father?"

Ye Meng stared at Zhao Si dumbfounded, and then heard a familiar voice, she was very excited and said, "My lord, are you still alive?"

Zhao Si smiled and said, "If this king is dead, can you still see him? Why do you think this king is dead?"

"I dare not!" Ye Mengde bowed back.

Zhao Xi didn't want to say anything more, and said straight to the point: "You should have guessed what this king is here for!"

Ye Mengde knew it well. He guessed that the "dead" Zhao Si appeared, so he knew that it must be the matter of Zhao Yougong, king of Chu, otherwise he would not have been forced to appear.Zhao seemed to be dead in his heart, but he didn't want to reappear, that is to say, he hadn't died all these years and had been feigning death.

Now that he was sure that the person in front of him was Zhao Si, he didn't say anything, but moved the seat, pried open the floor tiles below to reveal a box, took out the contents, and handed it directly to Zhao Si, respectfully: " My lord, this is the list of members of the organization and the criminal evidence!"

After taking it, Zhao Si glanced at it and said, "Is this list all the people?"

Ye Mengde shook his head and said: "The organization is too big and the staff is too wide to get a list of all the personnel. This is only a part, and this part is the eyeliner placed in the army, as well as the eunuchs, maids, guards and others in the palace. .”

"What exactly does he want to do? Is he really trying to usurp the throne?" Zhao Si was furious and growled angrily.

Ye Mengde calmly replied: "Reporting to the lord, he really thought so. At first, I thought it was impeachment of treacherous ministers, so the Qing emperor joined the organization and became one of them. Later, I found out that what I did was beyond my expectations. Only then did I find out that he was impeaching a traitor." His purpose was to seize the throne, so he withdrew, in order to keep part of the list for himself, and wanted to expose his actions, but..."

"Just what? Tell the truth!" Zhao Si shouted in a low voice.

Ye Mengde replied truthfully: "It's just that he is the prince's beloved son, and he is also the only son. After thinking about it, he decided to give up exposing him, and he has been unwilling to reveal it!"

Zhao Si was silent, and he also guessed that this was the result.If not, how could he show up so easily.Even Zhao Gou couldn't get the list, just because Zhao Yougong was Zhao Si's son, if not for that, I'm afraid he would have told everything already, and he wouldn't have waited until today.
