Jin Kingdom, go to Beijing.
at the same time.
The sound of camel bells rang, and a Central Plains caravan entered Shangjing City, which had just begun to show its scale. Before entering the city, a handsome young man in his twenties who led the group looked up at the sky, with a trace of gloom between his brows.
Although he came under orders, he did not get the real order from his lord until he went to the capital. He contacted Wanyan Ermao, the deputy minister of Jin State, and presented a secret letter in person.
Only at this moment did he truly realize that Shi Yucheng's real intention was to hook up with the Jinren.
A huge wave arose in the young man's heart.
He could willingly follow the Shi family's rebellion because Shi Yucheng was kind to him and saved his life when he was in poverty and despair.
He vowed back then that he would work hard for the Shi family and repay the great kindness of saving his life.
but……
Shi Yucheng actually wanted to collude with the Jin people to invade the Central Plains and cooperate with his rebellion.
This is traitorous!
In the eyes of young people, the Central Plains is ultimately a world of Han people, and it doesn't actually matter whether one's surname is Zhao or Wang.
But colluding with aliens has already touched his bottom line.
The young man entered the city slowly on horseback, facing a dilemma.
He wanted to retreat, but it was difficult to explain to Shi Yucheng, and Shi Yucheng had always treated him with great kindness, and even supported his old mother until her old age.
Such betrayal of Shi Yucheng made him sad in his heart.
But if you follow Shi Yucheng, it would be betraying your family, country and ancestors.
The young man's face was green and red. After hesitating for a long time, he decided to go to the city to see the situation. After all, he knew Shi Yucheng. This man was deep-minded and cunning like a fox. He was by no means as shallow and arrogant as he appeared. Shi had planned this.
After many years, even if he gives up, others will definitely contact Wanyan Ermao.
The young man moved into the post house with his entourage.
As he expected, in the evening, someone from Jin came to contact him.
The young man looked gloomy, and finally followed the visitor to a large mansion located in the north of Shangjing City.
The official residence of Wanyan Ermao, Vice Minister of the Kingdom of Jin.
The person who actually came out to see him was not Wanyan Ermao, but apparently a high-level domestic slave like a steward under Wanyan Ermao.
The young man's expression changed and his hands trembled. He slowly took out a secret letter from his arms and handed it to the steward of Wanyan Ermao's family. He was asked a few random questions and then sent it out.
Whether Shi Yucheng can successfully contact Wanyan Ermao and get the support of the golden man, the young man doesn't know.
What he knew was that there could not be only one secret letter from Shi Yucheng, and there must be more than just him sent to the Kingdom of Jin.
No matter what he did, it would not affect the basic fact that Shi Yucheng had secret dealings with the Jin people.
Early the next morning, the young man left the caravan and galloped away from Shangjing alone, heading straight for Hebei.
…
It was already midnight when Wang Lin received the urgent report from Kaifeng Jinyiwei, Yan Qing, and Wu Song.
Because the matter was of great importance, the Jin Yiwei sent Yang Yizhong to the palace through the commander of the imperial army, and then sent the urgent military report of 100,000 yuan to the palace.
At that time, Wang Lin was resting in Pan Jinlian's palace. In addition to Pan Jinlian, there were also Li Ping'er and Pang Chunmei.
Pan, Li Ping'er and Pang Chunmei have different styles. They can be said to be fat and thin, and they fly side by side.
The spring breeze was blowing this night, and I didn't know how happy I was.
The clouds had just dispersed and the rain had settled, and the three women were waiting for the emperor to cleanse himself and take a bath, when they heard Shangguan Qing's crisp voice coming from outside the palace: "Your Majesty... I, Shangguan Qing, have something urgent to report!"
Wang Lin was stunned and his face was shaken.
The three girls Jin, Ping and Mei were even more shocked.
When the emperor was resting and having fun with his concubines, Shangguan Qing would definitely not dare to come over and disturb him if there was no urgent state affairs.
The three women subconsciously thought that if a foreign enemy invaded again, it would probably be the Jin people.
But Wang Lin was alert at the first moment, and he realized that something happened to Zhao Ji in Kaifeng.
At this juncture, the person who could make Jin Yiwei report overnight was probably related to Zhao Ji.
Wang Lin put on his clothes and left the palace, his hair still hanging down behind his head.
Shangguan Qing glanced at the emperor hastily, his beautiful eyes were a little complicated, but he still bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, Jin Yiwei and Marquis Yan, Wu Song is sealing the urgent report!"
Wang Lin gasped.
What he worried about most finally came to light.
…
At dawn, Wang Lin, wearing a large cloak, paced back and forth in the bamboo forest outside the palace garden where Zhao Fujin lived, followed closely by the female official Shangguan Qing with a complicated face.
Shangguan Qing could guess the emperor's difficulties and hesitations.
If something happened to Zhao Ji, although it was not caused by the emperor, the emperor intervened in it after all, and he felt that it would be difficult to face Zhao Fujin's daughters again in the future.
When he usurped the Song Dynasty, he did not touch Zhao Ji, not because Wang Lin was soft-hearted, but because he cared about his female relatives.
Besides, Wang Lin felt that there were not many successful people in the Zhao Song clan, and those who could stand out during the era when he was in power were definitely rare, and Wang Lin would not give him this opportunity.
As for Zhao Ji, apart from being incompetent and cowardly, apart from losing his ambition by playing with things, Zhao Ji actually has no great evil.
Wang Lin felt slightly annoyed at this moment.
Perhaps due to the assistance of the system after time travel, or due to luck, he has always had smooth sailing, and it can be said that he has no plan left. Basically, so far, he thinks that everything is under his control...
...Unexpectedly, something went wrong with Zhao Ji.
As the dawn gradually dawned, several kingfishers jumped on the glazed eaves of the red and yellow palace garden, emitting crisp cries. Wang Lin stared at them for a long time, finally sighed, and turned around to walk away.
Wang Lin walked out of the palace slowly and decided to go to Kaifeng himself.
Family and national affairs are important, but family harmony is also important, especially for people like Wang Lin who value family so much.
He didn't want to cause trouble with Zhao Fujin and the girls because of Zhao Ji's matter.
He really couldn't let go if he didn't go to Kaifeng to take command.
Wang Lin waved his hand, and Shangguanqing walked over lightly, bowed and said, "Your Majesty."
Wang Lin took out a secret letter from his arms, which was sealed with fire wax and stamped with the emperor's seal.
Although this was not an imperial edict, it was equivalent to the emperor's oral instructions. Shangguanqing did not dare to neglect it, and only accepted it respectfully after paying homage.
"I'm upset, so I'm going to take a walk in the imperial garden to relax. You don't have to follow me. Shangguanqing, after an hour, you go to the political hall and hand my secret letter to Li Gang in person. No one except Li Gang can reveal it.
Give it to other people, understand?"
Shangguan Qing bowed and accepted the order: "I accept the order!"
When Shangguan Qing raised his head, the emperor's handsome figure had already drifted away along the quiet palace path towards the imperial garden.
Shangguan Qing stared blankly at the emperor's back, a deep and complicated tenderness once again appeared in her beautiful eyes. She thought about it for a while, then turned around and left.
She didn't know what the emperor was going to do, but she knew that the matter in the secret letter must be related to Zhao Ji.
At the moment, nothing concerned the emperor more than Zhao Ji's case.
