Chapter 304 Cai Jing in the Daqing Palace scolds the thief Wu Erqing in Bianliang City
Chapter 304 Cai Jing scolds thieves in the Daqing Palace, and Wu Er cleans up the dirt in Bianliang City
"Rebellious ministers and traitors should be punished by everyone!"
In the deathly silence of the Daqing Palace, someone finally wore the light of righteousness, and under the admiration of thousands of people, he spoke out sonorous and powerful words of justice to the evil thieves!
From the excited and tearful Zhao Ji to the imperial banzhi who was forced to stand guard and wear ultra-thin and breathable armor to show off.
Everyone's eyes fell on that majestic figure!
It was only then that everyone saw clearly that the one who dared to angrily rebuke the evil thief in front of everyone, surrounded by soldiers, was actually the gray-haired Cai Jing!
Zhao Ji burst into tears, 'The strong wind knows the strong grass, and the rough wind knows the loyal ministers! Only at this time can the true colors of loyal ministers be revealed. Evil thieves are in power, and only the Cai Qing family are the true loyal ministers.'
Cai Jing, who was very young, rushed in front of Li Yunze, pointed at his nose and yelled, "You want to scream for the thief Cao~~~"
Li Yunze had a look of astonishment on his face and looked at the furious Cai Jing with confusion. He did not expect that this famous traitor would actually stand up and speak righteously at this time.
Cai Jing was also helpless.
He didn't want to offend Li Yunze, who held military power at this time, but he had no choice.
Li Yunze has become prime minister here. What should Cai Jing, the former prime minister, do? He has no chance of retiring and returning home!
As a veteran, Cai Jing knew very clearly that he would never end well after Li Yunze gained power.
It is inevitable that he will be demoted and sent to a new job, and there is no chance that he will be killed directly.
For the sake of his own life, and also for the sake that his family would not be completely destroyed, Cai Jing had to make a bet that Li Yunze would cherish his reputation and give himself a chance to survive under the pressure of damaging his reputation.
This is to retreat in order to advance, and to reach an agreement with them through coercion, so as to gain a way to survive.
According to Cai Jing's vision, he would first occupy the moral high ground and make Li Yunze embarrassed. Then the conversation would change and involve Zhao Ji and his son. Using the name of the world's righteousness and the public opinion trend of scholars as threats, he would negotiate with Li Yunze to share the power of the new dynasty.
The best outcome would naturally be that Li Yunze was forced to retreat and could only take charge of the army, while leaving the government affairs to himself and forming invisible allies to jointly control the Great Song Dynasty.
At worst, he would have to work as a high-profile official in order to maintain the power and status of his Cai family.
Cai Jingdu has thought about it, at least he must achieve the position of deputy minister of the province.
He believed that Li Yunze was a man who understood current affairs. After all, no one in the entire Song Dynasty knew how to make money better than him.
Whether Wu Er wanted to be Wei Wu or even wear a yellow robe, he had to have money.
After all, no matter what you do, you must have money and food in your hands.
Cai Jing is confident that he can maintain his position and be a roly-poly in this unexpected incident.
As expected of a veteran, he has basically figured out everything that can be calculated.
The only two things I didn't take into account were that I didn't know that Li Yunze was not short of money and food at all, so he could get whatever he needed.
The second thing I didn't expect was that the generals under Li Yunze didn't have that much wisdom to consider too many things.
Li Yunze hasn't spoken yet, but Hu Chengcheng is already walking over with a short ax in his hand.
Before the astonished Cai Jing could say anything, Hu Cheng, whose eyes were red and obviously excited, had already raised his ax and struck down directly!
"Old man, how dare you disrespect my Prime Minister!"
Hu Cheng, with red eyes, was in high spirits. His brother-in-law suddenly became the most powerful person in the world. As the elder brother-in-law, Hu Cheng was both prosperous and devastated. Naturally, he did his best to serve Li Yunze.
Cai Jing scolded Li Yunze in public and challenged Li Yunze's authority. In Hu Cheng's view, this was an obstacle.
Hu Cheng, who has never read any books, is most familiar with the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
In his opinion, his brother-in-law is now Cao Cao, and Cai Jing is naturally the rebellious Dong Cheng, who must be killed.
As the stunned Cai Jing fell down, everyone in the Daqing Hall gasped.
It's really, really cruel!
Looking at Hu Cheng with a stern look on his face, Li Yunze subconsciously wanted to say, 'It's still useful for me to keep him, but I want him to take the blame.'
But everything has been done and everyone is gone. Reprimanding him now will only have the opposite effect.
Thinking of this, Li Yunze smiled and nodded slightly at Hu Cheng.
Then he turned to look at Zhao Huan, who was shivering on the dragon chair. "In the official family, the traitor Cai Jing has been brought to justice. General Hu Cheng of the Forbidden Army has made great contributions to the country, and the humble officials think that he should be rewarded with a heavy reward."
The famous Cai Jing actually disappeared like this. Zhao Huan was already stunned.
He nodded tremblingly and responded, "It's a reward for merit. Please let me know how to reward you, Prime Minister."
Li Yunze was also unambiguous and said directly, "I will be in charge of the Imperial City Division and the commander of the Imperial City Imperial Guards."
Needless to say, Hu Cheng will be a prison guard from now on.
Zhao Huan deliberately refused to have such a ruthless person as guard, but unfortunately when he saw Cai Jing in a pool of blood, he did not dare to say the words of rejection, so he could only nod his head, "Just as the Qing family said."
Li Yunze was not surprised at all, because when he read the history books, he knew that Zhao Huan was such a cowardly person who was timid in person.
When the Jin soldiers came to the city, they were frightened and ransacked the whole city's young women and gold and silver treasures to the robbers to ask for peace.
But when the Jin soldiers retreated, they immediately turned against each other and refused to fulfill the agreement to cede territory.
If such a person is threatened in person, he will not dare to refuse even if he says anything.
Li Yunze became more and more satisfied, looking around at everyone in the Daqing Hall, and finally landed on Cai You, who was shivering and about to faint.
He called out pleasantly, "Mr. Mr. Cai?"
Over there, when Cai You heard Li Yunze calling him, his legs trembled and he couldn't stand upright, so he collapsed to the ground.
Cai You shouted with snot and tears, "Don't kill me, don't kill me~~~"
Li Yunze also had a dark face. Is my reputation already so bad?
At this point, he simply ignored it, turned around and said frankly to Zhao Huan, "In the official family, Xiao Cai Xianggong is outstanding in talent and learning, and he is a man with both morals and learning. Such an important minister of the country should be reused. The weak minister suggested that Xiao Cai Xianggong should be used
I am the deputy prime minister of the province."
Zhao Huan sighed softly, "Just follow what the Prime Minister said."
I thought my father was dead and I was doomed.
I never thought that it would be a blessing in disguise, I got the coveted title of Duke of the Province, even if I am the deputy, I am the Grand Prince of the Province!
Cai You, who looked miserable before, as if he was dead, was instantly resurrected with full health and a happy face.
My waist is no longer sore, my legs are no longer painful, my tears are no longer shed, and I can even stand up on my own.
Seeing this scene, everyone in the palace felt contempt in their hearts.
Your father is still lying there! The enemy threw a bone over and immediately forgot his name. What a waste!
Li Yunze smiled and nodded to Cai You, expressing his kindness.
The reason why he was supported on the stage was of course not because he was really a famous official. It was purely to replace his original role and to take the blame.
Soon Li Yunze made some arrangements to promote some truly useful ministers and reserve cooking team members.
A group of unlucky guys, such as Geng Nan, Zhong Yu, Wen Xu, and others were sent to Yazhou to go fishing.
In addition, there is also a very important arrangement, which is to relieve Tong Guanxi's army boss from being dispatched by official orders and send him back to Bianliang City.
Naturally, this person cannot be retained, especially since he still holds military power.
As for whether Tong Guan had the courage to directly raise troops to serve the king, let’s not talk about whether he had the courage. Let’s just say that the Western Army would never follow.
Those who really control the Western Army are the many generals of the Western Army.
They actually don't care who becomes the emperor, they just care that the resources of the Song Dynasty can continue to be tilted towards their side.
If Tong Guanzhen is so capable that he can order the generals of the Western Army, which has gradually become a warlord, to raise troops to serve Wang Qingjun, then Li Yunze must have recognized it, and he would have given a thumbs up and said, "You are really capable of being crowned king as a eunuch."
Really capable.'
This is also the reason why Li Yunze became Wei Wu first and then looked for Huangpao.
Taking charge directly before defeating the Western Army would be tantamount to forcing the Western Army to raise troops to serve the king under the leadership of Tong Guan.
Although we can definitely win the battle, the soldiers who will die are all soldiers of the Song Dynasty, so the gain outweighs the loss.
After arranging the affairs, Li Yunze motioned to Hu Cheng, "Why don't you send the Supreme Emperor to practice Taoism as soon as possible and send him to the official family to rest?"
Hu Cheng immediately responded with a loud voice, led a group of soldiers forward, and sent the two pale-looking officials away.
As for Li Yunze himself, of course he went home to spend the wedding night.
Maode Diji, who had been sent back to Li Yunze's mansion in advance, looked a little unhappy when she saw Hu Sanniang Qiongying and other girls who were already in the mansion.
After all, no girl would have a good look when seeing so many girls in her husband-in-law’s room. Unless the husband-in-law earns a million dollars a month, he would put on sunglasses and pretend not to see, and he would have to give her enough pocket money.
That kind of.
Maode Diji doesn’t know that Li Yunze still has a yard of girls in his hometown in the west of Beijing. Otherwise, the bridal chamber probably won’t be able to open a hole.
There is no need to say much about the bridal chamber, everyone who understands understands it, and those who don’t understand should also understand the process.
Anyway, that's how it is said, no matter how the tricks change, the process is always going forward and reversing in gear, and the result is always working so hard that you'll foam at the mouth and fall asleep.
The next day, Bianliang City was still under lockdown.
A large number of military generals attacked everywhere, directly cleaning the entire city.
Not only the scholar-bureaucrats and generals, but also the urban foxes, rats, and all kinds of pickled goods were caught on the streets and disposed of directly.
Bianliang City has not suffered a military disaster for a hundred years, and with the support of the whole country, it has already become the most prosperous place in the world.
The number of all kinds of heroes and urban foxes and rats who make a living here is simply mind-numbing.
They are extremely powerful, and they even have strong backers who are connected up and down. In the past, they have done all sorts of things that oppressed good people, but no one can stop them.
Now that heaven has reincarnated, it is their turn to be unlucky.
For these people, Li Yunze didn't even bother to interrogate them. He just got rid of them all after catching them.
After Xiao Xiami has been dealt with, the next step will be a big boss who is not so easy to deal with and has a huge background.
For example, Lu Zhishen had placed orders before, the largest moneylender in the entire Bianliang City, and also the largest moneylender in the world, Daxiangguo Temple!
