Chapter 126 Wang Lin Brings a Tiger into the Palace to Kill Cai Zi
Chapter 126 Wang Lin brought the tiger into the palace and killed Cai Zi
"Did you get kicked in the head by a donkey!!!"
Zhao Huan was so angry that he roared and kicked Cai You.
Zhao Huan hated the Cai family deeply.
He was placed under house arrest by Cai Jing in the East Palace for half a month.
If Wang Lin hadn't led his army to risk his life to rescue him, the official Zhao Ji might have been able to save his life. At most, he would have abdicated the throne to the Yue King Zhao Si and become the Supreme Emperor himself. However, as the crown prince, he would have no choice but to die.
No one understands the great danger and luck of the Tokyo Incident better than Zhao Huan.
At that time, Wang Lin sent people to Beijing to report. He had already sensed that something was wrong. Especially when he discovered that the guards and internal guards around him had been replaced by Cai Jing's people, he realized that the crisis was approaching.
So he hinted that Wang Lin should come to Beijing.
Fortunately, Wang Lin came anyway.
Cai You was kicked by Zhao Huan, but he gritted his teeth and knelt down without saying a word.
Zhao Huan laughed angrily: "As ministers of the Song Dynasty, you are living off the emperor's salary, but at the critical moment, no one can stand up to share the emperor's worries and save the official family from disaster. How dare you blame Wang Lin? Wang Lin was escorted this time.
One million taels of silver are sent to Beijing to contribute to the imperial court. If they are not escorted by the army, what else can they do?"
"The six thieves Cai Jing, Tong Guan, Liang Shicheng, Wang Fu, Zhu Meng, and Li Yan conspired to rebel and detained the officials in the palace city and the palace in the East Palace. If Wang Lin hadn't turned the tide and risked his life to lead the army to rescue, today's court meeting would have been held
, the Song Dynasty has already changed its surname to Cai, right?"
Zhao Huan scolded him for a long time, but he still lost his temper and pointed at several officials and cursed: "You officials are usually the most righteous and righteous. You open your mouth and shut up all for the sake of the Song Dynasty. You are all sanctimonious. In fact,
Full of male thieves and female prostitutes!”
"Don't think that I don't know what you are planning, and don't think that others don't know about the nasty things you do!"
"Xue Jinzhong!" Zhao Huan shouted.
Xue Jinzhong, the imperial censor, took two steps on his knees, his face turned red and he said, "I'm here!"
"Xue Jinzhong, you are a fifth-grade official. I heard that you bought two mansions in the past two years, established more than a dozen villages, shops, and countless fields outside the city, and you also took in more than a dozen beautiful concubines.
How much is your annual salary, how can you afford to live in a luxurious mansion and keep many beautiful concubines?"
Xue Jinzhong's face was red and his ears were red, and he fell to the ground.
Everyone was as silent as cicadas.
Zhao Huan kicked Xue Jinzhong over, then turned around and bowed to Zhao Ji: "Father, my sons and ministers think that Wang Lin has made many meritorious deeds, and this time he has saved and quelled the rebellion. His merits are higher than the mountains, so he must be rewarded heavily."
!”
Zhao Huan suddenly broke out in the court today and scolded Cai Dang and Yan Guan, which made Zhao Ji feel very happy.
He nodded slowly: "I thought so. Someone is here to summon Wang Lin to the palace!"
…
"The official family has decreed that Prince Zuo Shuzi, a male from Qinghe County, the governor of Yizhou, and the commander of the Fuhu Army, Wang Lin, comes to the palace to see you!"
As soon as the Huangmen eunuch's shrill voice fell, two deep tiger roars came from the entrance of the palace.
The expressions of the ministers changed dramatically.
However, when the ministers looked at the official Zhao Ji and the prince Zhao Huan, they saw that the expressions of the father and son who suddenly became hardened were as usual, and they couldn't help but be surprised.
Not long after, they saw Wang Lin, fully armored, leading two colorful tigers into the palace slowly.
Although the two tigers were not big in size, they walked with a look of power and murderous intent. They were so frightened that all the courtiers screamed in alarm. They did not care about the rules and hid in the corner of the palace.
Wang Lin turned a blind eye and went straight under Danqi.
Although Zhao Ji, who was sitting on the Danqi, had already been mentally prepared and had seen these two beasts in the palace yesterday, he was still a little frightened when faced with such two beasts from the forest again.
Wang Lin scolded him lowly, and Xiaobai and Dabai immediately fell to the ground obediently and didn't move at all.
Wang Lin bowed and paid homage: "Your Majesty, Wang Lin, pays homage to the official, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
Zhao Ji smiled bitterly, nodded, and his voice trembled slightly: "Please get back on your feet."
Zhao Huan laughed and said: "My ministers, you don't have to be afraid. These two fierce tigers are the beasts that suppress the tiger army and are also the heroes who rescued us the day before yesterday!"
"Pass an edict to grant the two beasts gold locks and red flowers, and the army will bear the support of the imperial court."
Wang Lin smiled and bowed his hands: "I would like to thank the officials for their grace on behalf of these two beasts!"
Zhao Huan said again: "The fierce tiger assists the army. This is a good sign from heaven. The tiger army has given Wang Lin the ability to subdue the tiger and control the tiger. The bravery of ten thousand people is really the blessing of our great Song Dynasty!"
Wang Lin glanced at Cai You and others hiding on one side, frowning.
He killed six thieves the day before yesterday. He was forced to do so due to the situation and to protect himself!
The only hidden danger is to kill Tong Guan too early, who might still be of some use.
But by replacing it with the way of cultivating teachers, the Western Army will not be in chaos, and it is not a big problem.
Compared with the hidden dangers, the benefits are still huge.
Cai Jingtong is despised by everyone in the world, and the benefits of killing these two thieves outweigh the disadvantages.
Killing Zhu Meng, abolishing Huashi Gang, calming the people and wealth in the southeast, and ensuring the stability of the rear.
The so-called "no destruction, no establishment", since Cai Jing has been killed, we must eliminate all evil, clean up Cai Jing's party, confiscate his family, and kill him to the end!
If Wang Lin were to become the emperor himself, he would definitely take this opportunity to kill Cai Jing, lift the ban on the party, attract people to the court, and first ensure the stability of Bianjing and the stability of the court.
Then he began to vigorously organize the Imperial Army.
From the Tokyo Forbidden Army to the Hebei Forbidden Army, they kept a close eye on these places with poor combat effectiveness. Under the banner of cleaning up Cai Jingtong's remaining members, they dug all the way deep, cutting off the wrists of strong men, cutting off large pieces of meat, or boiling frogs in warm water. They cleaned them thoroughly one by one and handed over military power.
Give full play to the role of the rising stars in the army such as Han Shizhong and Wu Jie, and at the same time give full play to the role of veteran generals such as Zhong Shidao.
However, Zhao Ji is still Zhao Ji, he does not have the courage.
Although he also hates Cai Party very much.
Fortunately, Zhao Ji listened to some pertinent suggestions from Wang Lin.
He promoted Lu Yihao, Zhang Shuye, Zhong Shidao and many other capable ministers.
This can at least guarantee that in the future, as long as Zhao Ji does not act stupidly, the Song Dynasty can barely survive.
And once the main war faction develops a climate in the DPRK, it can at least ensure that in the face of the Jin army's invasion in the future, there will be no surrender faction.
Despite this, Wang Lin still wanted to kill Cai Jing's sons.
He is the life and death enemy of the Cai family. Leaving Cai You and others to occupy high positions in the court will be a huge hidden danger in the future.
Wang Lin and Zhao Huan quickly exchanged cryptic glances.
Last night, I had a long conversation with Zhao Huan in the East Palace. Both of them felt helpless.
Zhao Ji is weak, and it is almost impossible to expect him to ruthlessly cleanse Cai's party.
After this incident, Zhao Huan deeply felt that as the prince, he was in danger, and he could not count on Zhao Ji to protect him.
Zhao Huan gradually made up his mind.
He walked down Danqi, bowed to Zhao Ji and said: "Father, Wang Lin came to the capital this time to escort a million taels of silver as a donation. I thought that this silver should be put into the inner treasury to alleviate the hardship of the empty child."
Zhao Ji was overjoyed.
The treasury of the Song Dynasty was empty, which directly caused the palace's inner treasury to be unable to make ends meet.
As an emperor and his concubines, his consumption level has been greatly reduced. With the millions of silver sent by Wang Lin, it will be enough for him to squander for a while.
Cai You quietly winked at Bai Shizhong.
Bai Shizhong hesitated for a while, but finally went out and shouted: "I am an official, the silver from the silver mines should be put into the national treasury, and filling it into the inner treasury is against the regulations of the imperial court. There is no precedent for this!"
The daily reduction of internal treasury reserves is Cai Jing's fault.
Cai Jing did not dislike Zhao Ji's luxurious life, but wanted to use it to restrict and effectively control the emperor and his family.
People like Cai Dang know Zhao Ji very well.
Zhao Ji spent money like water and was extravagant. As long as he wanted to spend money, he would reach out to the outer court to ask for it, and he would make concessions to the courtiers on many things.
It has always been like this over the past few years.
Zhao Ji was furious at Bai Shizhong's obstruction, but was unable to refute.
With a sneer on his face, Zhao Huan suddenly approached Wang Lin and took the ropes of the two tigers from Wang Lin's hands.
Wang Lin stayed aside quietly.
Bai Shizhong started the meeting, and Cai You and other talents bowed down to give advice.
Zhao Ji was so angry that he couldn't speak. Zhao Huan suddenly shouted: "Cai You, Bai Shizhong, and Cai Jingtong were the six thieves who conspired to rebel. My father only killed the first culprit and ignored the rest. This is a great grace. Not only do you not think about it,
I am grateful, but instead I speak arrogant words and disobey the emperor's will. Do you really know that you don't know whether to live or die?"
Zhao Huan's voice was very cold, revealing a trace of murderous intent.
Only then did the loyal and loyal ministers suddenly realize an interesting point. The Prince of the East Palace, who usually never showed off his talents, seemed to be too eye-catching and powerful today?!
Cai You and others kowtowed to the ground: "The officials, Your Highness the Emperor, and the ministers have absolutely no selfish motives, nor do they want to offend the official Longwei. In fact, the imperial treasury is empty now, and the funds for various affairs are stretched thin. If you don't enter the treasury first, you can go on your own."
It is harmful to the reputation of the official family and the royal family if it is introduced as a child and spread out."
Zhao Huan sneered: "Whose fault is the treasury empty? Is it the fault of my father and me, the prince?"
Zhao Ji also felt happy after hearing this, and slapped the case with a cold face: "What the prince said is that the treasury is empty because the old thief Cai Jing has lost money and filled his own pockets. Now that my children are empty, Wang Lin sent these batches
The silver is for my use, how dare you stop me?"
Several members of the Cai family argued repeatedly.
Zhao Huan was furious: "Cai You, Cai Jing's grand master's palace and your respective mansions are extremely extravagant, far superior to the palace. The Cai family's inner treasury is piled with gold and silver. You and the descendants of the Cai family are living a life of extravagance and wealth, but let the
When expenses are being cut day by day and you are no longer as good as a minister, you will be devastated! Damn it!"
Zhao Huan stamped his feet and actually let go of the rope in his hands.
The two colorful tigers jumped past Zhao Huan in an instant and rushed towards Cai You and his men.
The hall suddenly burst into alarm, and the ministers had no time to react. Cai You, Bai Shizhong and seven or eight others had no time to escape, so they were bitten to death by two tigers in public, and their blood flowed all over the floor.
The courtiers screamed and fled outside the palace, only to see heavily armed imperial troops surrounding the entrance of the palace, and no one could escape.
Zhao Ji, an official on Danchi, turned pale with fright and lost his soul. He collapsed on the ground and was protected by several internal prisoners who were also trembling.
Seeing two ferocious tigers killing several of Cai You's men without injuring others, they returned to lie down beside him honestly. Zhao Huan felt high-spirited, courageous and powerful for a while.
He shouted coldly: "The evil thief is about to be executed. You don't have to panic. These beasts that protect the country will never hurt innocent people!"
