Song Yi

Chapter 293
"Come here last time? How did you come here?"

"On the way we came, didn't those disaster victims say that doing business with Shiyi Division can be done as long as you pay bribes, and you can make a lot of money if you are willing to spend a small amount of money, but the money is all from the court. At that time, I didn't trust the government very much. I know how to do this kind of thing, and now that I have encountered Old Man Gan and Huimin Drugstore, I believe it to a certain extent. Now I need a proof, and I will know if it is true or not if I try it myself."

"you mean……?
"Fifth Lord, I've already made up my mind. I'll buy all the adulterated medicines from Huimin Drugstore, and then I'll pay bribes to see if I can sell these fake medicines to Shiyisi, and then let Mr. Wang buy them. Can you bring this batch of goods back in. Isn't it proof?"

"Very good!" Song Shenzong clapped his hands and shouted, "This method is very good! You can do it right away! Right away!"

"Yes!" Du Wenhao took the order and turned to leave, but Song Shenzong suddenly called him back: "I'll go with you! They are a small county government, no one will know me, I want to see these beasts with my own eyes How did you harm the people!"

Du Wenhao hesitated, and said in a low voice: "Fifth Master, you are going, you have to calm down, don't get excited, we can't beat so many minions, we have to deal with them, wait until the troops are transferred, they can't run left and right .”

"Don't worry, I know what to do!"

…………

Two hours later, Song Shenzong's eyes burst into flames, and he rushed out of the yamen on the bluestone road with big strides, followed by Du Wenhao, with a large stack of bank notes bulging in his arms. Several carts of adulterated medicinal materials were sold to Yamen City Yisi in exchange for the money. Of course, before that, Du Wenhao asked the shopkeeper Luo of the Huimin Drug Store to help him spend money to get acquainted. The hands and mouths of the little magistrates.
After seeing Du Wenhao's huge bribe, the plump Mr. Tiju of Shiyi Division's eyes lit up. He had just known each other for a while, and he was already called a brother, and he happily bought it at a price that was twice the market price. Du Wenhao didn't even look at all the medicinal materials, so he ordered them to be sent to the medicinal material warehouse.

This was Du Wenhao's first bribe, and he felt embarrassed at first, and he lacked confidence in speaking, but when he really sent the money, the other party took it with bright eyes, and felt that it was too easy.Song Shenzong pretended to be a partner and witnessed the whole process after hearing what Du Wenhao said on the phone. He was so angry that his teeth were about to be crushed. You started to scold your mother.

Now wait for Wang Anshi and the others to come back, and pretend to be a drug dealer to buy the same medicinal materials to see if they can buy the adulterated medicine.

Wang Anshi, Yu Ge'er, and Eunuch Ning returned to the pharmacy. Wang Anshi was not angry when he heard Du Wenhao tell the story, because he didn't believe that such a thing would happen. He was similar to Song Shenzong. He had never been at the grassroots level, and in today's words, he had no work experience at the grassroots level. Naturally, he would not believe that there were such shady things in the world. He just stared at Du Wenhao blankly, as if he didn't believe his words at all.But seeing Song Shenzong's face livid with anger, he knew it was true.
Seeing Wang Anshi like this, Du Wenhao knew the old master's personality well, and he was afraid that he would not be able to restrain his anger. If he tried to scare the snake, it would be a waste of all his previous efforts. He was worried that he would reveal his secrets when he went to buy goods. Go, and ask him to speak as little as possible and not reveal his identity. Wang Anshi also knows that the matter is of great importance and the overall situation must be the top priority, so he can only hold back this tone first.

The shopkeeper Luo knew that Du Wenhao was a fifth-rank imperial doctor and was serving the doctor, so he was so afraid that he would die. He naturally didn't dare to disobey Du Wenhao's words. , so first he helped Du Wenhao pay bribes to sell medicine, and then he took Wang Anshi to take medicine.

When it was dark, Wang Anshi and shopkeeper Luo came back and brought back a cart of medicinal materials. After Du Wenhao checked it, it was indeed part of the batch of medicinal materials they sold to Yamen City Yisi at noon!

Song Shenzong couldn't hold back the anger in his heart again, and ordered Wang Anshi to go to the local garrison to show his identity, dispatched troops to surround the entire yamen, and captured Shi Yisi, the magistrate of the yamen and others.

Before Wang Anshi could agree, he heard a mess outside the window, and the voices of crying father and mother came and went.Yu Ge'er hurried to the window to look out, and said happily, "There's no need to mobilize the troops, many soldiers are here!"

After hearing this, everyone hurried to the window to have a look, only to see that there were indeed a large number of soldiers rushing past downstairs with weapons.

"Xiao Ningzi, go downstairs and ask the shopkeeper of the inn to find out what happened?"

"Fifth Master, should I still find someone to transfer troops now?"

"No need for now, let's see what happens downstairs." Song Shenzong had a gloomy face, and Wang Anshi retreated knowingly.

Soon Eunuch Ning ran up, walked up to Song Shenzong with a nervous expression and whispered, who would have thought that Song Shenzong was angry and shouted: "Speak up, how can you do without eating?"

Song Shenzong was very angry recently, even Eunuch Ning and Du Wenhao, who were rarely scolded at ordinary times, could not help but be careful in serving them.

When Eunuch Ning heard this, he quickly changed his tone and said loudly: "It is said that the residents besieged Shiyi Division. When they rushed there, they were met with military force to suppress them. They were taken to the yamen together. Because there were too many people, the backyard was temporarily detained."

"What! Did you ask the reason? Why are so many ordinary people sent to the Yamen for no reason?"

"I asked, the residents said that the Shiyi Division has been buying daily necessities such as grain, oil and vegetables at high prices, resulting in high market prices, small vendors have gone bankrupt, and ordinary people cannot buy daily necessities. This is..."

"It's the opposite, it's the opposite, what's the use of keeping this kind of officials, I'll find someone to take these dog officials!" Before Song Shenzong could get angry, Wang Anshi couldn't hold back anymore, and rushed out of the door as he spoke.

When Wang Anshi lost his temper, Song Shenzong calmed down: "Come back here."

"Wang Aiqing is right, no, you can't go alone, you take Miss Lin, just in case."

"Fifth Master, I think it's better to let Miss Lin stay by your side, and let Yu Ge'er go with me. I think she is okay, not only articulate, but also good at kung fu. Besides, I have revealed my identity, so I shouldn't There's going to be a big problem."

"Fifth Lord, I think shopkeeper Wang is right. It's safer to let Sister Qingdai and I stay by your side."

Song Shenzong thought for a while and waved his hand. Wang Anshi took Yu Ge'er to leave, Song Shenzong said again: "Yu Ge'er, you... forget it, go, be careful."

"Don't worry, I will take good care of Mr. Wang." Yu Ge'er understood what Song Shenzong wanted to say, and quickly expressed his attitude.

As soon as Wang Anshi and Yu Ge'er left, Song Shenzong sat in front of the window and looked at the chaotic scene downstairs, with a serious expression, without saying a word. Du Wenhao and the others had no choice but to stand aside and quietly wait for news from Wang Anshi and the others. .

Time seemed to have stood still. After a century, Song Shenzong finally came back from a fugue. He smiled. Du Wenhao and the three of them were standing nervously, their backs ached. His feet were cramping, and with Song Shenzong's sudden smile, Eunuch Ning nearly fell.

"Fifth Lord, what are you laughing at... what are you laughing at?" Eunuch Ning leaned on the window sill and carefully stared at Song Shenzong's expression, lest there was something else in his smile.

Song Shenzong looked at the three of them, seeing that they all looked tired, he said with a smile: "Why are you standing, sit down quickly."

As if he had received an amnesty, Du Wenhao was the first to sit down, and couldn't help but groan. Seeing Song Shenzong looking at him, he was a little embarrassed, and quickly explained: "I accidentally twisted it a few days ago, and it hasn't recovered. .”

"Well, I know you're not a hypocritical person, do you know what I'm laughing at?"

"I don't know," the three answered in unison.

Song Shenzong pointed to Lin Qingdai. Apart from talking a lot in front of Du Wenhao, Lin Qingdai seldom talked along the way, including sharing a room with Yu Ge'er, and even more so with the other three men. Seeing Song Shenzong pointing at him suddenly, for some reason, his face turned red.

"I have three smiles, and the first smile is Miss Lin."

"Fifth Master, I... what am I so funny about?" Lin Qingdai stole a glance at Du Wenhao, seeing him was also inexplicable, and her heart was even more uncertain.

"Laughing, your feelings for Wen Hao are hidden very deeply. If it weren't for your eyes that can't lie, who would know?"

When Lin Qingdai heard it, her smiling face became even redder, but Du Wenhao was thinking, what kind of person is Song Shenzong? People, how can I hide it from him, but it seems a bit inappropriate to say this at this time.

"You made Fifth Master laugh, but you still can't hide it from Fifth Master's eyes, so why are you laughing?" Du Wenhao deliberately changed the topic, so as not to say that Lin Qingdai would want to find a place to drill.

"These two smiles are naturally laughing at Yu Ge'er and Old Master Wang."

The three of them laughed together when they heard that, Song Shenzong: "Don't look at the old master who is hanging on all day, but he is still good, except for being more serious, but when he met Yu Ge'er, he dared to challenge him. How angry is he?" , I followed his wishes and talked about Yu Ge'er. Firstly, I wanted to sound a wake-up call to Yu Ge'er. Her character is going to suffer in the harem. Although I never ask about the harem, but I also know that if there are more women, there will be more right and wrong. It’s not something she, Yu Ge’er, can do as she pleases. Second, let’s take the opportunity to let them get to know each other again. You see, it’s better now, even grandpa is called. Think about it, In fact, the old master has taken advantage of enough, if Yu Ge'er calls him grandpa, wouldn't that mean he is older than me."

Everyone laughed again, and Eunuch Ning saw that Song Shenzong had something to say, so he quickly answered his words and asked, "Then what about the third smile?"

Song Shenzong stopped laughing suddenly, stood up and pointed downstairs, and said in a deep voice: "Laugh at myself, laugh at me sitting in the Golden Temple all day thinking that the people are healthy and prosperous, listening to the civil and military officials singing praises to me all day long, I am so happy." So I thought that I... really did a good job, but in fact I was wrong, the most ridiculous person in the world is actually myself, a frog in a well, short-sighted."

When the three of them heard this, they quickly knelt on the ground. Du Wenhao said, "Your majesty, it's not your fault. The fault is that these people have a greedy word in their hearts. They can't see your kindness to them. It's not your fault that you do things that go against your will."

"Your Majesty, Lord Du is right, it's not your fault, it's all theirs..." Before Eunuch Ning finished speaking, there was a knock at the door, and Lin Qingdai rushed out in response, only to see a black shadow flickering for a moment , and jumped downstairs.

Lin Qingdai returned to the room and said to Song Shenzong: "Fifth Master, it seems that we can't stay in this place for long, someone may have heard our conversation just now."

Song Shenzong shook his head calmly, and said, "No, we'll just stay here and wait for Wang Anshi and Yu Ge'er. I want to see what else they want to do after they know my true identity."

"Your Majesty, let's go. Miss Lin is right. We only have four of us now. No matter how powerful Miss Lin is, we are still outnumbered." Eunuch Ning persuaded.

"Stop talking to any of you, I'll just wait here, my majestic emperor of the Song Dynasty, is he still a coward?"

Seeing that they couldn't be persuaded, everyone had no choice but to close the door. Lin Qingdai stood guard at the door, and Du Wenhao watched the situation downstairs from the window.

Half an hour later, there was a sudden rush of footsteps downstairs: "Fifth Master, Fifth Master, it's not good, a lot of victims suddenly rushed in downstairs, saying that there is a rich Fifth Master here who wants you to buy food Put the porridge, you should go quickly."

Lin Qingdai opened the door and saw that it was the owner of the inn. The owner looked flustered, and quickly closed the door after entering, walked up to Song Shenzong, and said, "I don't know who said it, fifth master, you..., it's too late, you still Let's go first, I'll let the guy resist for a while, I'm afraid it won't be long."

Without time to think about it, Du Wenhao and Lin Qingdai sent the innkeeper away, opened the window and saw a lot of refugees pouring in at the door of the inn downstairs, and they were about to rush in.

"The emperor asked Sister Qingdai to send you through the back door first." Du Wenhao said eagerly.

Song Shenzong saw that he couldn't leave at this time and got up and was about to leave with Lin Qingdai when the door burst open. Du Wenhao and the others looked back nervously, and it turned out to be Wang Anshi and Yu Ge'er.

"Your Majesty, we are back to pick you up." Yu Ge'er rushed in front of Song Shenzong.

"Where is the person you called?" Song Shenzong saw that there was no soldier behind them, his heart sank, and his mouth trembled a little when he spoke.

"Don't worry, your majesty. We have found someone. They are on their way. Yu Ge'er and I were both worried about your safety, so we rushed back first. Who would have thought that something was wrong when we were about to enter the door, so we hurried in through the back door. .”

Eunuch Ning was in a hurry, and said: "Then you should find some people to follow, what should we do now, why would someone say that the fifth master is rich, and he found a group of refugees to make trouble and ask the emperor to buy food and put porridge, what should we do? "

"I think it's fake to buy grain and put porridge. It's true that someone discovered the emperor's micro-service and wanted to take advantage of the chaos to do something."

"Wen Hao is right. It's not realistic to go out to find someone now. I don't think I can leave. Since they came prepared, the back door will naturally not work. Or just wait here for reinforcements." Song Song Shenzong sat down again after speaking.

"Your Majesty, when we came here just now, we found a familiar figure in the crowd. This person made the most noise." Wang Anshi suddenly thought of something, walked up to Song Shenzong and said.

"A familiar figure? Who are you familiar with?" Song Shenzong felt that something was a little strange. The person Wang Anshi knew should be an official. Since he is an official, then this incident must not be accidental.

"Lu Huiqing!"

Song Shenzong thought about it, and the officials above the fourth rank of the imperial court may not have remembered it all. This Lu Huiqing himself has no memory at all: "This Lu Huiqing, what is the value of this person now?"

"I used to be a servant of Weichen, but later I fell out with Weichen because of the political reform. I found out that I was a villain who was a treacherous villain. This villain is the most noisy in the crowd. I don't know if this matter has anything to do with him. .”

Song Shenzong pondered for a moment, then said: "I remembered, you strongly recommended this person in front of me before, what did you say to me at that time?"

Wang Anshi was ashamed and ashamed: "Weichen once said that Huiqing's virtuousness is unique to today's people, although the Confucianists in the past are not easy to compare. Huiqing is the only one who learns the ways of the previous kings and can use them."

"Oh, it seems that people will really change. No matter whether he is the instigator or not, he can't be let go later."

"Yes!"

Just as he was talking, he heard a loud noise coming from the corridor, and someone shouted loudly: "We want to ask this rich fifth master to buy food for us. These rich people eat delicious food and drink spicy food all day long. Those of us are going to starve to death, we can’t let him just sit back and watch, don’t you think?”

"That's right, that's right, we can eat a meal for these rich people for a year."

"Let's go, let's find this fifth master to buy us something to eat."

"Come on, let's find him to buy us something to eat."

Du Wenhao and Lin Qingdai looked at each other, Yu Ge'er stepped forward and said to Lin Qingdai: "Sister, you just follow the emperor to protect the emperor, if my kung fu is not good enough, follow Mrs. Du to resist at the door, if you can't resist , you can jump out of the window with the emperor and escape, and leave us alone."

"What Yu Ge'er said is that the most important thing now is to protect the emperor, you go." Du Wenhao said to Lin Qingdai.

Just as Lin Qingdai walked to Song Shenzong, the door was knocked open. Wang Anshi saw that the leader was Lu Huiqing, a villain!
"What are you going to do?" Wang Anshi walked to the door and shouted, staring at Lu Huiqing with sharp eyes.

Lu Huiqing glanced at the people in the room with thieves' eyes, didn't care what Wang Anshi said, suddenly pointed at Song Shenzong, and said: "This person is the fifth master, everyone give it to me, if he doesn't pay, we will grab it." As he spoke, he rushed towards Song Shenzong.

Seeing Lu Huiqing rushing over, Lin Qingdai raised her foot, who would have thought that Lu Huiqing would know how to do it, she was already on guard, she dodged her waist, lowered her head to avoid Lin Qingdai's leg, and went straight towards Song Shenzong .

Lin Qingdai grabbed Lu Huiqing with her backhand and threw her out in the air. Lu Huiqing didn't expect that there was such a master beside Song Shenzong. After staggering a few steps and standing still, she said with a cold smile: "It seems that you don't want to give money Already, everyone grab it for me."

How did the refugees know that the person they wanted to snatch was the current emperor, and they all rushed forward after hearing Lu Huiqing's yelling, and the scene became chaotic at that time.

Du Wenhao and Yu Ge'er were protecting Wang Anshi and Ning Gonggong. There were too many people. Du Wenhao calmed himself down quickly. He found that some people were not refugees, because they didn't come here for money or goods, but for money. The weapons, it seems, want their lives.Seeing this, Du Wenhao stopped showing mercy, and quickly turned over many people with the broken hand that Lin Qingdai gave him. When he got close to Lin Qingdai, Lu Huiqing thought that he was not as good as Lin Qingdai and took Song Shenzong behind her. There was nothing he could do, just about to take out the hidden weapon from his pocket, who would have thought that there was a gust of wind behind him, a sharp pain in his shoulder, and with a bang, a dart in his hand fell to the ground.

"No one is allowed to move. We are court officials, and I am a fifth-rank Wude cavalry captain. If anyone dares to move again, I will ask someone to take you down one by one."

When the refugees heard that they were people from the imperial court, they panicked, and they all knelt down. Lu Huiqing sneered, and said, "You asked someone to take us down? What about your people? You said you were a fifth-rank Wude cavalry captain." , what evidence do you have?"

Du Wenhao signaled Lin Qingdai to protect Song Shenzong, lest someone would take the opportunity to attack Song Shenzong, and then took out the waist badge of the fifth-rank Wude cavalry captain from his arms.

Lu Huiqing laughed loudly and said, "I'm afraid you picked it up somewhere, hum, everyone, don't trust these people."

Before Lu Huiqing finished speaking, officers and soldiers rushed in from the door holding shields and military sticks. The leader was an officer who rushed in front of Song Shenzong and knelt down: "Your Majesty, the last general is late, and he deserves death."

Lu Huiqing and a few people in the crowd saw that the situation was not good and were about to slip away. Du Wenhao grabbed Lu Huiqing's elbow. Lu Huiqing wanted to resist, but slapped Du Wenhao's chest with a palm, and suddenly felt that the palm of his hand Stinging, as if being pricked by something, he squatted on the ground with an ouch.

After the officer ordered all the refugees to be driven out, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Song Shenzong was also secretly frightened into a cold sweat, Lin Qingdai stepped aside, and everyone knelt down in front of Song Shenzong.Song Shenzong stepped forward, raised his hands, and said in a loud voice: "Everyone who loves you should get up if you have meritorious service. This time, I wanted to take a look at the good life of the common people after the implementation of the Green Crop Law. Who would want to make this trip?" The heart is very cold, the sky is clear, the sky is bright, and there will be shocking things one after another. If these corrupt officials die, the common people will not have a good life, and sooner or later the country of the Song Dynasty will be destroyed by these people. , so if you should kill, you should kill, if you should be beheaded, you should be beheaded, and you can't be soft."

Song Shenzong walked up to Lu Huiqing. At this time, Lu Huiqing no longer had the arrogance just now, and sat limply on the ground like a dog in water, with his head bowed, cold sweat dripping on the ground, not daring to raise his head. Look at Song Shenzong in front of him.

"You are Lu Huiqing?"

"Back to the emperor, the guilty minister is right."

"I remembered that I once served as a storyteller in Prince Zhongyun, Chongzheng Palace, Jingyan Pavilion, the inspection and writing of the regulations of the Three Divisions, and the officials in charge of Sinong Temple, Guozijian, and Military Weapons Supervision. Wang Aiqing, I Do you remember correctly?"

"Your Majesty, you remember correctly."

"Your Majesty, the guilty minister knows his mistake. The guilty subject deserves to die. The guilty subject was instigated by others. I also ask the emperor to spare the guilty minister's life."

Song Shenzong glanced at Lu Huiqing contemptuously, and said, "I really wanted to spare your life, after all, you are still a talented person."

"Thank you for the grace of the emperor not to kill, the guilty minister will do his best to assist Lord Wang to reform the law with all his strength, so as to live up to the great kindness of the emperor." Lu Huiqing quickly expressed his opinion.

"Don't worry, I haven't finished my words, I didn't want to kill you, but I can't see a nasty villain wagging his tail and begging for mercy. Although you are talented, you have no virtue, so if you keep such a person, sooner or later you will bring disaster to the world. Lah, drag me out!"

"Your Majesty, please forgive me, Your Majesty, please forgive me!!!"

"Wang Anshi."

"Chen is here!"

"I order you to arrest the county magistrate Hushi Yisi immediately on behalf of others, investigate his identity as a corrupt person, and force him to find out who is behind the scenes."

One day, Song Shenzong ordered the beheading of officials who accepted bribes from Yisi in Dongming City.After returning to the capital, he decreed that Lu Huiqing's entire family would be executed.
