Zhao Huan, the eighth-grade household supervisory censor, does not harm others, but he is very hostile to others.
With Zhao Huan's style of conduct, if a riot really breaks out, the whole of Bianjing will be disturbed by him.
Neither the officials nor the Dali Temple bothered to argue with Zhao Huan.
But in the eyes of the children of Hubu, this wise and wise act of protecting one's own safety is completely different.
Their eyes were wide open in disbelief.
"No way? Even the staff and Dali Temple have to avoid the prince's attack?"
"Does this count as raising a white flag in public?"
"No... he is indeed Prince Ding. I have long said that one day, the prince will become a very important figure in Bianjing."
"What is this? The prince is originally the son of a dragon!"
"Your Majesty, since even the Ministry of Personnel and Dali Temple have relented, why are we still struggling? If you want to investigate, feel free to investigate!"
Although Zhao Huan held his head high and his chest raised, his head almost reached the sky. With such a proud mood, those who didn't know thought he had become the crown prince of the Song Dynasty.
But Zhao Huan was more cautious than before.
Zhao Huan could not be fooled by the flattery of the officials and Dali Temple.
After all, with his current strength, he can only protect himself. How can he have the capital to challenge the Six Ministries and Nine Ministers?
"All files related to Yizhou will be moved to Prince Ding's Mansion."
"I have been ordered by His Majesty to strictly crack down on corruption. I will definitely sweep away the filth in Yizhou and replace it with a clean breeze in our border area of the Song Dynasty!"
Anyway, Gao Qiu is finished. Who cares about Yizhou's mess? The Ministry of Revenue has no intention of worrying about it.
The disciples of Hubu immediately called for help and began to count the files according to Zhao Huan's instructions.
"Master Zhao, I hope you can take care of me about the matter of investigating Yizhou. List all the dirty and unclear cases."
Zhao Shiyan has firmly taken the position of the top leader in Kaifeng Mansion. All of this is naturally attributed to Zhao Huan.
He had already confided in Zhao Huan and followed his lead.
Immediately ordered the officials to stay at the household department and be responsible for escorting the files.
As for counting everything in the case, you must choose someone you can trust, otherwise there will be countless secret operations and hidden evils.
While Zhao Huan was conducting extensive inspections, news had quietly spread in Bianjing.
The soldiers and horses of Yizhou who had been stationed outside the city learned that Zhao Huan was determined to clean up Yizhou. In just one day, they sent people into the city three times in a row to contact Tong Guan.
The news of approval, without exception, is all waiting.
Wait for your mother!
The Third Battalion of the Shun'an Army deployed Wang Qi, who was fully responsible for escorting the military pay and coins.
He led the third battalion of 500 people and had been waiting outside Bianjing for a month.
Not to mention silver, not even a copper plate was seen.
On the contrary, I kept hearing bad news coming from the city. First, Gao's eldest son died, his second son was disabled, and finally even Gao Qiu died.
If this was the uprooting of the Gao family, he could still convince himself that it was just Gao Qiu who was getting out of control, and His Majesty didn't like him, so he just borrowed the knife to kill.
But……
Just today!
His Majesty actually appointed Zhao Huan as the Supervisory Censor of the Ministry of Household Affairs, and he is vigorously cracking down on corruption in Yizhou.
Although Wang Qi is just a "little shrimp", after all, he has been enjoying the shade under the big tree for so many years. That madman Zhao Huan will definitely take action on him first.
There are so many troops stationed in Bianjing, who can be sent to escort the money?
Wang Qi waved his hand: "Fuck you, uncle, I won't serve you anymore!"
"Brothers, follow me back to Yizhou. As long as you arrive in Yizhou, you will not be subject to your orders!"
The soldiers of the third battalion of the Shun'an Army had long been impatient with waiting, so they naturally responded to their call.
"That's right! We work hard here, and we work hard even if we don't get credit. What's the result?"
"It's fine that Your Majesty and I didn't reward you. Instead, we brought that lunatic Zhao Huan right in front of us."
"If you wait any longer, I'm afraid my head will be stuffed with a guillotine."
"I have had enough of being a man with my tail between my legs in Bianjing. When I return to Yizhou, my brothers are still upright heroes!"
Under Wang Qi's order, five hundred Yizhou soldiers were relieved of their trimming on the spot, put on their armor and mounted their horses one after another.
Bianjing is not too far from Yizhou.
If you are intercepted halfway, just rush out and rush back to Yizhou in one go. It is better than staying here and being slowly played to death by Zhao Huan.
Just at this juncture, an arrow suddenly shot from a distance and landed firmly at Wang Qi's feet.
Wang Qi was shocked and looked in the direction of the arrow.
A hundred steps away, I saw a soldier wearing infantry armor and holding a powerful bow.
You can't tell which army the opponent belongs to simply by looking at the infantry.
However, from the opponent's accurate archery skills, it can be judged that the opponent is definitely an elite member of the Forbidden Army.
"Not good..."
"It seems we have been targeted for a long time."
"This person is just a test. I'm afraid that a large number of forbidden troops have already been ambushed around!"
Wang Qi reacted quickly and immediately ordered all soldiers to dismount and give up escaping.
Under Wang Qi's nervous gaze, six Imperial Guards guarding an official came forward.
The visitor is none other than Zhao Shiyan!
"Wang Deployment, where are you planning to go?"
Looking at the indifferent Zhao Shiyan, Wang Qi swallowed subconsciously.
When the government and pastoral authorities were decentralized, Zhao Shiyan, the governor of Kaifeng, was worthless.
But now, with the lunatic Zhao Huan acting as cover, Zhao Shiyan has firmly controlled the Kaifeng Mansion, and the power in his hands is gradually rising.
He dared to come to confront him in person, and he expected to be fully prepared.
Only then did Wang Qi finally see clearly that the Imperial Guards beside Zhao Shiyan were all elite members of the Tiger Wing Army under the jurisdiction of the Dianqian Division.
"Subordinate...subordinate, I would like to pay my respects to Mr. Zhao."
"I don't know why Mr. Zhao left the city?"
Faced with Wang Qi's knowing question, Zhao Shiyan couldn't help but snorted coldly.
"If I don't come here again, I'm afraid you will run away without a trace, right?"
Wang Qi was already covered in cold sweat: "We are just taking advantage of our free time to practice military training, and we have absolutely no intention of betraying you."
"Besides, when you come to Bianjing this time, you have to shoulder a heavy responsibility. How dare you run away from the battle?"
"Master Zhao has a high position of authority. If anything goes wrong, my subordinates can't afford it. It's better to return to the city as soon as possible."
As everyone knows, Zhao Shiyan sent people to keep an eye on Wang Qi for less than half a month.
As soon as Wang Qi had the idea of defecting, Zhao Shiyan got the news and immediately dispatched the Tiger Wing Army to contain him.
You messed with King Ding and still want to run away? Dreaming!
"I don't need you to worry about me."
"Just wait here, the prince will come to interrogate you soon."
That lunatic Zhao Huan is coming?!
Wang Qi's face turned pale instantly: "Your Majesty is the supervisory censor of the Ministry of Household Affairs, and we are the Yizhou Army. I'm afraid this is suspected of overstepping our authority?"
Zhao Shiyan's eyes suddenly turned sharp: "Your Majesty, this trip is to clear away the remaining poison of Gao Qiu. If you are not selfish, what do you have to fear?"
"If you dare to act without permission, you will be killed without mercy!"
