The first prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 290
It was also the political alliance between Zhao Guangyi and Shi Shouxin that made Zhao Guangyi a little bit opposed when Zhao Kuangyin wanted to take back their military power.

He forgot that his surname was Zhao, and Shi Shouxin's surname was Shi, and he started to ignore his family's interests for the sake of his allies.

"Xu'er, is what you said true? Someone actually started trying to mess with my brains in the Song Dynasty imperial examination. Is this really a crime?"

After Zhao Kuangyin agreed to Zhao Xu's request, he wondered if it was true. Some people dared to do this when the imperial examination was held for the first time in the Song Dynasty.

"Regardless of whether it is true or not, do you always have to be prepared? If not, it is a false alarm."

"But if it's true, the people selected in that way may not be the fairest. If they really knew the topic in advance, how fair is it to those who are studying hard?"

"I'm not angry because of this. These people who really make me angry are ignoring the laws of the country for their own self-interest. It seems that I must kill chickens to make an example."

Don't look at Zhao Kuangyin's history of emphasizing civility over martial arts, like a weak emperor, but you must not forget where this guy came from.

He was born in the army, and he was also a master at others, and his skill with the dragon stick is superb.

What makes him famous is that he created a new boxing method called Taizu Changquan.

So he is a real man who can kill, but he usually behaves mildly.

If this guy comes up with murderous intentions, no one can stop him. Now that Da Song has just been established and someone dares to make trouble, can he not be angry?

"I said, Dad, you are already the emperor, why are you so angry? You must know that if the highest official is angry, it will affect your judgment, so you must keep a clear head at all times."

A general in the later generations became angry and became a beauty, and ended up ruining the country of the Han people, not to mention whether this was right or not.

Just say that this anger can do anything irrational. As an emperor, it is even more impossible to be angry.

Being angry will hurt his body, and he will make other unwise actions because of this, so Zhao Xu doesn't want Zhao Kuangyin to lose his mind because of this.

"Don't worry, I won't do any irrational behavior because of this. After all, I want to see who these people are. With such courage, I will definitely not let them go."

What Zhao Kuangyin hates the most in his life is those who don't pay attention to loyalty and seek glory, and those who are corrupt and pervert the law.

Now these people are actually blatantly trying to violate the laws of the country, can Zhao Kuangyin not be angry?

Although Zhao Xu said that there was no definite news that someone was going to make a fuss about it, Zhao Kuangyin knew that there was definitely one.

Because he knew that Zhao Xu wouldn't sleep if he didn't have the exact news. Since he said it, he must have had the exact proof.

"You don't have to hide it from me. If you have any definite evidence, then tell me. I want to see who it is?"

Zhao Xu knew that he couldn't hide from Zhao Kuangyin, but there was nothing he couldn't say, but he still wanted to give his father a vaccination.

"I did have some evidence and I brought it here, but don't get angry after seeing it, and don't take any action. Just pretend that you don't know anything."

Zhao Xu was really afraid that Zhao Kuangyin would go crazy if he read this confession, and more importantly, it involved too much.

"I have my own sense of propriety, don't want you to teach me whether you are my father or I am my father, I have been bullshit, take it here quickly."

Anyone of you who has ever seen an emperor who swears is estimated to be the one in front of you after the rogue emperor Liu Bang in history.

Zhao Xu couldn't help but rolled his eyes. Is this what the emperor should have said? I really can't believe it.

Despite his helplessness, Zhao Xu still took out this confession, which was clearly written and signed.

It's really very formal, you must know that Jin Yiwei's affairs are all in accordance with the formalities, and everything is very official.

Because only in this way can the evidence they obtained have legal effect, otherwise it will be nothing if they don't admit it.

Zhao Kuangyin's face turned livid after reading this. He absolutely did not believe that Zhao Xu would deceive himself with a fake one.

"Is it all true?" Zhao Kuangyin's voice trembled a little, but he still couldn't believe it.

"The student who took the exam is still locked up in Jinyiwei's prison, and is he being provided with good food and drink?"

What Zhao Xu meant was that the confession was not obtained through torture, but that he voluntarily said it out. Does anyone really want to be our guest?
"It turned out to be him, I treated him well, how could he do this." Knowing that this really happened, there is also the shadow of Shi Shouxin.

Zhao Kuangyin was so angry that he threw the teacup next to him to the ground, his heart ached.

"Look, that's why I dare not tell you. On the one hand, you have a deep relationship with them, and on the other hand, there are too many people involved."

Can this be done by one person? Absolutely not.It is impossible for one person to complete such a big event independently.

Besides, Da Song is not completely stable now, and it is impossible to directly pull these people out and kill them.

That will definitely cause great panic, and it is very likely that the entire Song Dynasty will be ruined.

It should be known that people don't kill heaven and earth for themselves, and they jump over the wall in a hurry. How can they care about you, the Song Dynasty, in order to save their lives.

Of course, Zhao Kuangyin knew what Zhao Xu meant. These things really couldn't be moved. Let's just talk about Shi Shouxin. He holds the military power in his hands. Once there is a mutiny, the Song Dynasty will fall into turmoil again.

"Okay, I will let them go first, but these people must be investigated one by one. When the time is right, I will definitely not let them go."

Later, after Zhao Kuangyin took power alone, these participating officials were either demoted or killed.

"Just do as you said. The exam will start the day after tomorrow. I will put the topic I named myself in the Ministry of Rites tomorrow."

"When the exam starts the day after tomorrow, I will temporarily order to change the topic, and it will be at the last moment of the exam."

Throwing a rat-preventing device means that the mouse is close to the utensils, and you are afraid of smashing the utensils near the mouse if you hit the mouse with something.

It mainly refers to having scruples about doing things and not daring to let go. This is the only time in Zhao Kuangyin's life that he throws a mouse trick.

But these people who made him use the mouse, did not end well in the end. Can offending the emperor have a good life?

But in secret, Zhao Kuangyin is stepping up the investigation that those people are involved in this matter.
