The first prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 1719 Pointing to Zhao Lin
"When your Ji clan was established, it was to slay dragons. Later, after the fall of the Han Dynasty, they changed to protect dragons. However, you have not found your position for thousands of years. You must have heard of Tiandaozong, and they also Those who take the world as their own responsibility, they have surrendered to my Great Song many years ago, and are doing meaningful things now. Now I give you this opportunity. I don’t know if you can grasp it. The elites of the Ji clan are also now There are only five of you left, if you want to realize the glory of your Ji clan, it depends on your choice."

If Ji Donglin agrees, Zhao Xu can put the five of them together to make plans for the future. If Ji Donglin is not willing, Zhao Xu will not either. If he would force it, then he would not help the Ji clan to avenge their revenge. Zhao Xu knew this very well.

Ji Donglin has no choice at this time, he has been regretting his kindness at the beginning, because he really let go of Ji Dongyu with a soft heart, which caused the Ji clan to be wiped out in the future, and now he has such an opportunity, he will naturally seize it. Knowing that the key to the clan at this time is very important, Zhao Xu also made this request after calculating this.

As for the promise, the four brothers had also obtained Zhao Xu's consent at the beginning. As long as there is a chance in the future, Zhao Xu will help them avenge them. Now Zhao Xu has begun to fulfill his promise.

"Good old man, I promise you that as long as I give this old man a year, I will be able to train a team of warriors that are even more powerful than Ji Dongyu's. After all, my Ji family is not vegetarian."

Ji Donglin thought that the deal was worthwhile, so he agreed, and he knew that Zhao Xu might not have used his thoughts, but these are not the most important things now, the most important thing is to have a chance to take revenge, otherwise he will die If you don't know how to rest in peace, the comparison between the two is more important, so you agree to help Zhao Xu.

"Okay, since that's the case, you brothers follow Ji Donglin. I will give you 1000 people in advance. As for what kind of achievements these 1000 people can achieve, whether they can help you avenge depends on your ability."

Zhao Xu assigned the Four Ghosts of Xiangxi to Ji Donglin's command just to let them find out all the affairs of Ji's family together. I also have such a samurai group.

"Give them all you know. Maybe your Ji clan will shine again in the future. Work hard. It's up to you how far you can reach."

Zhao Xu's implication is that he wants revenge. You must do your best to teach these people skills. After all, these people are also the main force for your revenge in the future. If they are strong, then there is hope for your revenge. If you can't teach them all, Then if you can't get revenge, it's your own problem. In this way, they don't dare not do their best. This is what Zhao Xu wants.

Sure enough, after Zhao Xu said this, Ji Donglin Ji patted his chest and promised to train these people to be the top warriors, much better than ordinary people, there is no doubt about it.

"Senior Ji, now I have something to ask you, and please tell the truth."

After Zhao Xu let the four brothers go out, Zhao Xu asked Ji Donglin some questions, which was also a question from Zhao Xu.

"Senior dare not be, if Your Highness doesn't dislike it, let's discuss as equals." Ji Donglin is now Zhao Xu's subordinate. When he used to be called Yang Laosi, Zhao Xu called him Fourth Uncle. Later, he found out that he belonged to Ji Donglin. At that time, he was called Senior Ji, but now he was considered Zhao Xu's subordinate, and he didn't dare to be arrogant, so let's talk about his peers.

"So I'm not going to be polite, Brother Ji, what I want to ask is how did you come to know Bao'er under the pseudonym Yang Laosi, and what happened to Bao'er's father, Yang Zongjia?"

Zhao Xu actually asked three questions. This was no longer one question. This was the question in Zhao Xu's mind, so he wanted to find out.

"So what Your Highness wants to know is this, Your Highness, please let me speak slowly." When Ji Donglin heard that Zhao Xu was asking this, in fact, even if Zhao Xu didn't ask, he was ready to tell the whole story.

It turned out that Ji Donglin escaped by himself after the death of Ji's family, but he was also seriously injured and was rescued by Yang Zongjia at that time. Yang Zongjia was still a fisherman at that time and hadn't married yet. If it wasn't for him, Ji Donglin would have died long ago.

Later, in order to thank Yang Zongjia for saving his life, Ji Donglin also taught Yang Zongjia some kung fu, which made Yang Zongjia much better than ordinary people, and Yang Zongjia gradually got rid of his identity as a fisherman. Later, Ji Donglin also helped Yang Zongjia marry a wife.

This moved Yang Zongjia very much. He never imagined that saving a person would bring him so many benefits. Otherwise, he would be a fisherman for the rest of his life. Unexpectedly, he would have a wife now. This was unthinkable before. Dare to think about it, but it happened abruptly before my eyes.

In order to thank Ji Donglin, Yang Zongjia recognized Ji Donglin as his father, treated him as his own father, and came to take care of him. After Ji Donglin knew that the Ji family had been destroyed, he could not take revenge with his own ability. Now it is not bad to live the life of some ordinary people, so he The pseudonym was Yang Laosi, and he regarded himself as an old man.

"Bao'er was born to the woman you helped Yang Zongjia marry, don't they know your identity?" Zhao Xu understood what was going on when he heard it.

"I don't know. The old man just told them that I am just a bodyguard and there is no one in the family, so I taught Goudan some martial arts. By the way, Goudan is Yang Zongjia's nickname. They didn't doubt the old man."

Zhao Xu suddenly realized that Yang Zongjia, a fisherman, had such an elegant name. Ji Donglin gave him the name, and the original name of Goudan fit Yang Zongjia's original identity.

"By the way, is Bao'er's mother later?" Zhao Xu knew that Bao'er was following Ji Donglin now, which meant that Bao'er's mother was dead.

"The old man knows what His Highness wants to ask. Bao'er's mother died of illness when Bao'er was five years old. At this time, Zong Jia also entered the government office as an official. Later, Jiangnan became the territory of the Song Dynasty. It didn't take long for the Tang Palace to be established. Zong Jia entered the Tang Palace and became a guard, and the old man took Bao'er with him. He thought it would be like this in the future. out of the water, to escape the pursuit of those people."

Ji Donglin sighed when he said this, with a feeling of a hero's twilight, Zhao Xu didn't say much at this time, and the point was the point.

It seemed that Ji Donglin did know something, and Zhao Xu vaguely felt that these things had something to do with what Zhao Xu wanted to investigate.

"Dare to ask Brother Ji, is this incident related to the killing of soldiers in Jinling City some time ago, and is Yang Zongjia also involved?" Zhao Xu's face was full of hope.

"Hey, the old man knows that this matter is very important to you. Today, the old man will tell you everything I know. I hope it can be helpful to you."

Having said that, Ji Donglin knows it's time to tell everything he knows. He used to pretend to be like an ordinary person because of Bao'er. Now that he has Zhao Xu as his backer, he is not afraid of anything. , Then he said everything, and Zhao Xu's face changed drastically after hearing it. It was exactly what he thought.

"The four envoys of Heaven, Earth, Xuanhuang, we should act now. As long as Zhao Xu dies, the Song court will definitely be in chaos. At that time, we can take advantage of it. At this time, the Song Dynasty is fighting with Khitan in the north, and it will definitely treat us. There is nothing we can do, at that time we will be able to quickly occupy most of the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, and everyone will be considered to have completed the task of the Lord, and at that time we will be named Marquis and Prime Minister, honoring our ancestors."

The leader who talked to the envoy in yellow had already gathered the four envoys of Tiandi Xuanhuang. They all have killers under their command. Today they gathered together for something important, because they were about to act.

"And now Zhao Xu has also found some things in Jinling. If we don't do anything, I'm afraid we will be very passive. At that time, everything we have done before will be in vain. Therefore, it is better to act first. I decided to act first. Let your subordinates Those who are the most prepared should be the first to do so.”

The leader quickly ordered everything, and at this time Zhao Xu sent Ji Donglin away. Ji Donglin was not only accompanied by Bao'er, but also by the Four Ghosts of Xiangxi. Zhao Xu now let them enter the role. Among them, the talents who trained to deal with the Fusang samurai went.

"Oh, it really has something to do with him. This matter is really difficult. It seems that some forces outside of Jinling City will be used. Someone will do something for me. Go and return quickly." Zhao Xu said to There was a shout outside, and soon someone appeared behind Zhao Xu. After hearing Zhao Xu's order, he disappeared again and went to do what Zhao Xu ordered. At this time, it was already dark, and Zhao Xu also Rested, and the day passed.

But at this time in Jinling City, several figures kept shaking in the dark night, shuttling through the streets of Jinling City, moving very quickly, and disappeared again after a while.

The next day, Zhao Xu was woken up by someone. Zhao Xu was dissatisfied that his dream had been disturbed, but after hearing the voice of the visitor, Zhao Xu became a little confused, because there were two people who came, one was Zhao Pu, and the other One is Chu Zhaofu, the prefect of Jinling.

"What's the matter, don't you two have nothing to disturb my sweet dreams in the morning?" Zhao Xu quickly got dressed and saw both of them waiting for Zhao Xu respectfully in the hall.

"A major event has happened to Your Highness, and the ministers are unable to make a decision, so please ask Your Highness to call the shots?" Zhao Pu spoke first, with an anxious tone in his tone, and there are not many things that can make a first-rank minister in the court, and Zhao Pu has always been very stable, why did he lose his composure today? Zhao Xu also found it a little strange, and Zhao Pu was still an imperial envoy representing the emperor, so he couldn't just sit back and make decisions.

"What exactly is it, and you can't decide. Zhao Pu, you are the prime minister or an imperial envoy, and Chu Zhaofu, you are the magistrate. In Jinling City, there are still two of you who can't make up your mind. It must be a big deal. Let's talk." Zhao Xu guessed that it might be a big event, but he just didn't know what it was.

Neither Zhao Pu nor Chu Zhaofu spoke. Chu Zhaofu took out a piece of paper as big as a notice from his arms, handed it to Zhao Xu respectfully, and said, "Your Highness will know after reading what is written on it." gone."

Zhao Xu took it over and opened it. It was a notice, but it was not issued by the government. There was no name signed on it, and it was unknown who did it. The content on it shocked Zhao Xu, which is what Zhao Xu has always said. Things I've wanted to know since.

"Where did this come from?" Zhao Xu asked loudly.

"Your Highness, this morning I found that many places in the city posted such notices. Although I urgently ordered people to tear up all these notices, most of the people in the city already knew about it. Many people were talking about the government. Said that the government is incompetent and can't really enforce the law impartially, the minister and Mr. Zhao came to ask His Highness for instructions, and His Highness also asked for instructions."

Chu Zhaofu said respectfully, Zhao Xu's face was a little ugly, which meant that everyone in the city knew about it and were still talking about the government, but in fact they didn't trust the government, which was a blow to the prestige of the government.

It turns out that all the above is about Zhao Lin, and there are three main items. The first item is to rob the court of tax money, the second item is to kill 220 three guards in Jinling, and the third item is to kill 31 palace guards.

This is not empty talk, the evidence is clearly written on it, including where there is tax money in the palace, how the defenders were killed, and who testified. It is absolutely true, not a forgery. In the end, it also requires the court and the government to act in accordance with the laws of the Song Dynasty and give the world an explanation.

After all, this Zhao Lin is the prince, the son of Zhao Kuangyin, the prince who was appointed by Zhao Kuangyin, no one dares to do it easily, but if any of the things written on it, as long as there is one truth, Zhao Lin's fate will definitely come. It won't be so easy, and it is very likely that he will be killed. Even if Zhao Kuangyin doesn't want to do that, in order to give the world an explanation, Zhao Kuangyin will severely punish this son.

The tax and bank case is full of turmoil. Now there is evidence pointing to Zhao Lin. If there is no investigation, many people will be disappointed with Da Song. If it is false, there is nothing to say. What if it is true?

Zhao Xu's brows became tighter and tighter. Who did this? Zhao Lin is in trouble.
