Zhao Xi laughed happily when he heard that Jiang Tai was beaten to please the envoys of the Liao Kingdom, so he was beaten against Su Shi. Although he was young, he also knew that he would be the leader of the Song Dynasty in the future.
Yes, he probably loves him more than anyone else, so of course he can't stand someone like Jiang Tai who eats everything.
Zhao Huirou, on the other hand, was a little unhappy when she heard that Su Shi's move was to save the leader named Qu Dong'er. She just didn't show her unhappiness. She knew that she was still young, and many things couldn't be said at this time.
No. Saying it will only make people annoying.
Fortunately, Su Shi had an official status. Someone like Qu Donger, who was born in a brothel, could not become his official wife. This was also not allowed by the laws of the Song Dynasty.
Su Shi only knew that Zhao Huirou liked him, but he thought it was a liking for a friend and did not consider other aspects. She was just a girl under seven years old. Even though she was born into the royal family and was overly mature, in his eyes
He is still a child, and he will not explain anything on this matter. Fortunately, his next words quickly attracted the attention of the two people. That is, someone has placed a reward order to kill him.
self.
"So I recruited a large number of guards early this morning. Fortunately, I was prepared. Although there were casualties this time, I was not harmed." Su Shi said with a smile, also telling Zhao Xi and Zhao Huirou that,
You don't have to worry about me.
"Okay, Brother Su did the right thing." Zhao Huirou nodded in agreement. She knew that Su Shi was rich. Not to mention others, she herself had 10% of the profit from burning knives. In the past few months,
There is also a lot of credit.
Although most of them were taken away by Concubine Miao, there was still not much left for her.
Zhao Xi, who finally understood what was going on, put down his curiosity and asked: "Brother Su, do you need our help with Jiang Tai's matter?"
"That's not necessary. We have to believe that Your Majesty can handle this matter." Su Shi refused with a smile. If Jiang Tai's actions before were only annoying to Zhao Zhen, then today's assassination incident will
There is no doubt that people will fall.
...
Secret Service compound.
Dong Zhong hurried to Yan Wenying. "Sir, Su Shi was assassinated and many people died."
"Oh? Did Jiang Tai really take action?" Yan Wenying said without any surprise. But when she saw Dong Zhong was so nervous and sweating, she asked, "What's wrong? Why are you so nervous?"
?”
"Sir, are all the people we arranged around Su Tianyou dead?" When he said this, Dong Zhong did not even dare to raise his head and look at Yan Wenying.
"All dead?" Yan Wenying asked in disbelief.
"Not all of them are dead. Two others were injured. I'm afraid they won't be able to stay by his side." Dong Zhong kept his head lowered when he talked about this.
Yan Wenying asked him to take this opportunity to arrange some people around Su Shi in order to find the source of the goods. It would be best if he could find Qian Bao. For example, the last time Su Shi purchased goods, he even sent them out.
His ace, Yang Jingyun, was lost, which made his ancestor Chen Lin very dissatisfied. This time was a good time to make amends.
Dongzhong wants to work hard, but the problem is that the current Secret Intelligence Department has funding problems, and the scholar-bureaucrats have been clamoring to cut the Secret Intelligence Department. There is also the Ministry of Justice in the court, and the Kaifeng Prefecture in the local area.
I don't know what the use is of keeping them.
With insufficient funds, when the Secret Service wants to recruit people, it will naturally be much more difficult. At least it will be very difficult to recruit some capable people. This time, there are five people sent to Su Shi. Although their kung fu is
Average, but loyalty is pretty good.
I thought that as long as five people worked hard, one of them would be able to get close to Su Shi and be trusted by him, so it would not be difficult to achieve their goal.
Who would have imagined that they were sent out just this morning, and only a few hours later, they were so dead and injured that no one was left behind.
Dong Zhong was still lowering his head, and Yan Wenying's scolding voice came out as expected, "How do you do this? Look at who you picked."
"Yes, your Excellency is right, this time it was my subordinate who was careless." Dongzhong had no choice but to lower his head and admit his mistake.
After scolding him a few times, Yan Wenying also knew that this was an unexpected incident. No one had expected it before, and Dong Zhong couldn't be blamed. If he was to blame, just blame Jiang Tai. Who would have thought that he was so brave? Really?
Dare to send a killer to kill Su Shi?
Also, you took action, but you jumped in even though you knew Su Shi had 300 newly recruited guards around him. This was too stupid.
"Forget it, this time it's considered to have been caused by that idiot Jiang Tai. In this way, you go and make arrangements right away. As expected, after so many guards were killed or injured, he will still continue to recruit them. Seize the opportunity and put them in place.
Go in, you can’t make any mistakes this time.”
"Don't worry, sir, I will take care of it right away." Dongzhong breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, the family rules of the Secret Intelligence Service are very strict. No matter how good their normal performance is, many people will be punished internally just for doing one thing wrong.
The family law is dealt with.
Fortunately, the matter is not serious this time, and there is still a chance to make amends. Otherwise, Dongzhong would have shed his skin even if he did not die.
...
Su Shi finally left the palace.
With a fourteen-year-old appearance and a soul of over fifty years old, even if he saw Zhao Huirou's reluctant expression, he didn't take it to heart at all.
The gap was so big that he didn't think much about it at all.
Besides, Princess Fukang is still young and it is a time for change. Maybe how long will it take before she has other ideas?
Liang Huaiji, who was standing next to Princess Fukang, looked at this scene with jealousy. The fist of his right hand was clenched tightly without realizing it. For some reason, he always felt like a good toy was about to be taken away by others.
Outside Danfeng Gate, a team of hundreds of people is waiting here.
The guards guarding the Imperial City clearly saw it, but they seemed not to have seen it. They all knew about the assassination that had just occurred. If they thought it was inappropriate to have such a formation before, no one would think so now.
Even the ministers and censors who had prepared to submit a memorial gave up the idea of impeaching Su Shi.
If it were you, of course you would save your life if you had so much money. What's the point of recruiting more guards? It's not like you're eating too much.
Besides, Su Shi has been labeled as having a brain disease. Even so, his official career has stopped. This is already a severe punishment, isn't it?
No one took these more than a hundred guards seriously. When Su Shi came from a distance in a wheelchair, he frowned involuntarily, "The clothes are not uniform and don't look good."
What is pulling the wind?
Just imagine, there are hundreds of people in different costumes, it looks like a huge force. But if they are matched up against a team of less than a hundred people, but they are uniformly dressed, I am afraid that the latter will give people the impression that the latter is more popular.
.
Su Shi was not short of money. He just made uniform clothes for these people, but it was something that could greatly improve his character. After thinking about it, Su Shi made a decision.
.....
Jiuzhou Bridge, Sufu.
It was extremely lively in front of the door.
Corpses were placed here, and injured men stood here. Surrounding them were groups of crying women or old people.
Without exception, none of the people crying made a loud noise. They all seemed to be restraining or trying their best to control themselves.
Just now, Lou Yang stood up and said one sentence, but it was just one sentence, "If you want to cry, go home and cry. Whoever disturbs the noble people's dreams here will not be given the pension."
The death of man and money was vividly demonstrated at this moment.
The dead lay in a line, motionless.
The injured were lined up in a line, and some of them were still bleeding from their wounds, but they didn't show any intention of leaving immediately.
The family members of the dead and injured also lined up, trying their best to control their emotions, waiting for the moment when the pensions would be distributed.
In front of the mansion, some government servants from Kaifeng Mansion also came. They were responsible for registration. After all, in this era, people have to cancel their accounts after death.
When Su Shi arrived in front of the door in a carriage, this was what he saw.
The team stopped, and the more than a hundred guards did not move, and had no intention of leaving. It seemed that they saw their own future just looking at these people, or maybe they also wanted to see how their newly chosen boss dealt with this situation.
of something.
I remember that when Su Shi asked Lou Yang to come back to deal with the matter, he said that he would caress him again.
How much does this weigh?
When Lou Yang saw the carriage coming back, he trotted over. Then the curtain of the carriage was opened, and Su Shi slid down the inclined board in a wheelchair.
"Is the pension ready?" Su Shi asked as he moved towards the door of the mansion.
"Everything is ready. According to the young master's instructions, all we got are copper coins." Lou Yang replied immediately.
They are all copper coins, not payment bills, in order to give people a strong visual impact. If you want others to work for you, how can you do it without giving them enough benefits?
"What is the standard of pension?" When asking this question, Su Shi deliberately increased his voice.
It was this sentence that instantly attracted everyone's attention. I don't know if it was an illusion, but at this moment, there was no crying at all.
"Master, our plan is to give one thousand guans to the deceased, five hundred guans to the injured, and two hundred guans to each of the others." Lou Yang seemed to understand what Su Shi meant, and also answered with a louder voice.
As soon as this number came out, you could clearly see the joy on some people's faces. In this era when ten strings can last a person for one year, this kind of compensation is obviously a lot.
