King of Song

Chapter 306 Chapter [-]
At this moment, Lin Zhao's prison van has arrived in Luoyang!

The distance from Luoyang to Bianjing is not very far. With Han Jiang's escort, Jiang Leiting's secret protection, and Sima Guang's secret care, there is no need to worry about safety.

Sima Guang, who was left behind in Xijing, also heard about the assassination of Xianyang Gudu, and he was very angry about it.In any case, no matter who is guilty of the crime, he should be judged by the imperial court. What does assassination mean?
Murder?So what does Lin Zhao know?
As for whether the murderer was from Xixia, Sima Guang expressed hesitation like many people!

After all, Han Jiang's investigation is not [-]% certain, it is just the result of a combination of many clues.Perhaps the "Xixia people" are just deceiving people, and as for the real identity, it is nothing more than a few of those situations.

Weishui's assassination was indeed murder, but who killed it?What to kill?In theory, there are two possibilities.

If Lin Zhao was framed, as long as he died, many things would be dead without evidence and nothing would be done.This is a very safe, almost once and for all method.Those people must have a guilty conscience to act like this!

If Lin Zhaozhen is involved in collaborating with the enemy, the purpose of killing him is to make him shut up forever.Some people were afraid that Lin Zhao would hurt themselves if he said something he shouldn't say, so they took precautions in advance.

In contrast, Sima Guang believed in the former more.

One is Lin Zhao's confidence in character, and the other is Zhang Zai's guarantee!

It is precisely because of this that Sima Guang took care of the team when they passed through Luoyang.

After arriving in Bianjing, the officials and ministers should be able to deal with it impartially!

Saying this, Sima Guang himself did not have confidence.

He is too aware of the interests behind this matter, Li Fugui is a frontier general with a large army in his hands, and needs to be treated with tenderness.More importantly, Wang Anshi was also involved, and officials must take Wang Anshi's face and prestige into consideration.

And Wang Anshi's own opinions are also very important. He is the chief chancellor, and his opinions are enough to influence many things.Lin Zhao had opposed the Green Crop Law, and he was already very annoyed.In addition, he is so fond of Li Fugui, and he is so full of words before, he will guard without hesitation!Will you let go easily?
Wang Xianggong became angry, Ouyang Xiu and other leaders in the literary world of the Song Dynasty would be embarrassed, and they would not give face, let alone a little Lin Zhao, Lin Dongyang.

If it is really found that Lin Zhao was wronged, what should the court do?I won't talk about how Li Fugui should deal with it, but how should Wang Anshi deal with himself?This is the most embarrassing thing!

Why do some people do everything possible to assassinate Lin Zhao and put him to death, what is the purpose of killing Lin Zhao?Isn't it just to prevent him from returning to Bianjing and avoid such possible embarrassment!
The involvement in this matter is too great, how can it be as simple as embarrassment!
At that time, for the sake of the so-called overall situation, Lin Zhao will most likely be a victim, so the fairness of this case is really hard to say.In the end, only the interests of some people are protected. Wang Anshi is inevitable, and the official Zhao Xu will also play a disgraceful role. Although the emperor has his own helplessness, but...

This is politics, the truth is not important, interests always come first.

Maybe in the past, Sima Guang took it for granted and didn't care too much about it.But after the Ayun case, he had a lot of thoughts.

At that time, the reason why he strongly advocated for Ayun's death penalty was to oppose Wang Anshi's reform.As for the truth of the case itself, on the one hand, it was indeed deceived. In fact, Sima Guang did not pay much attention to it at the time.

Every time Sima Guang thought of this, he couldn't help feeling a little scared and blamed himself.If Lin Zhao hadn't found out the truth, perhaps an innocent woman would have died because of it, and he would have had a bad conscience for the rest of his life!
Think about how Lin Zhao yelled at the court at that time, without any regard for the face of the prime minister and ministers. Although he was a little young and frivolous, it was not a kind of righteousness, a kind of pure courage?
It was a blow to the head, Sima Guang felt exactly like that at the time!Although he doesn't say anything, he often examines himself in his heart!
But at this moment, Lin Zhao who inspired him encountered exactly the same situation.

Sima Guang couldn't help lamenting that the world is impermanent. Last time, he almost accidentally caused serious consequences. Should he do the opposite this time, make up for his mistakes, and prevent the tragedy?

Although there is no distinction between high and low in human life, Ayun is just an ordinary little girl after all, and the loss caused by being wronged will not be that great.In contrast, Lin Zhao was different. He was a rare young man with a bright future and would be of great benefit to the country. How could he be so wronged and die so easily?

Maybe a little overkill!But if you don't pay attention to it, on the other hand, you have to indulge some treacherous villains. Such a situation is really unbearable.

Sima Guang is a righteous person, how can he turn a blind eye?
Eat the king's salary, worry about the king!If this situation continues, what will the Great Song Dynasty be like?Looking at the previous dynasties, the treacherous and evil were in power, and the day of subjugation was not far away.If so, is the Great Song Dynasty also repeating the same mistakes?
To be honest, Sima Guang was most worried about Wang Anshi.Does he know these things?Perhaps before, he still believed in Wang Anshi's character, but now...his confidence has inevitably loosened.If the prime minister of the court, the king Xianggong who holds the power in the world, has a wrong mind, the consequences will be unimaginable!

Therefore, Sima Guang felt that he should do something!Whether public or private, one cannot stand by like this!

Maybe I stayed in Luoyang for too long, it's time to go back to Bianjing!

But before leaving, Sima Guang decided to meet his friend Shao Yong first!He was very curious, why Master Shao cared so much about Lin Zhao, and what mystery was revealed in it?Thinking of the recent period, Shao Yong kept asking about Lin Zhao's progress, and showed unusual concern. Thinking about Shao Yong's occupation, Sima Guang's face was full of suspicion!
On the bank of Luoshui, at the bridgehead of Tianjin, the comfortable nest of Shaofu!
When Sima Guang came, Shao Yong was walking in the garden!
The gorgeous chrysanthemums have long since withered in the west wind, a little less vitality, a little more depression, and even a bit of chill.

At this time, it is already October in the third year of Xining, and the footsteps of winter have come.

After calculating the hexagram of Shangshang Daji, Shao Yong became much more relaxed.Of course, it's up to people to do it, and some things still need to be helped.Turning bad luck into good luck, without the help of noble people, how can things be done?

It was for this reason that Shao Yong and Zhang Zai persuaded Sima Guang to take care of him.

Of course, he very much hoped that Sima Guang would take the next step.As an important minister of the imperial court, the former Hanlin bachelor was of great importance, and his influence in the Song Dynasty was still very large.As long as Sima Guang comes forward, the hope of this matter will undoubtedly increase a little bit.

This will take time, weigh the pros and cons, and think carefully.There are risks in everything you do, and it is reasonable for Sima Guang to wait and see or hesitate.

Shao Yong has been waiting, and Sima Guang has indeed come, and he came earlier than expected!
"Brother Junshi, why do you have time to walk around today?" Shao Yongming asked knowingly, and greeted him with a smile.

Sima Guang laughed and said, "Guang may be leaving Luoyang in the next few days, so he must come and say goodbye to Brother Yao!"

"Oh?" Shao Yong asked suspiciously: "Brother Junshi is leaving Luoyang? I don't know where you want to go?"

"Bianjing!" Sima Guang's answer was very straightforward, and Shao Yong couldn't help but understand it all at once.

"Congratulations, congratulations, brother Junshi, for returning to Bianjing and the center again!" Shao Yong smiled lightly.

"It's not certain whether we can go back to the center or not!" Sima Guang hesitated for a moment, then sighed softly, "So I came here to ask Mr. Yao for advice!"

"Oh?" Shao Yong had already thought about what Sima Guang wanted to ask, and began to think about how to answer it.Some things are of great importance. Whether you can say it, how to say it, and to what extent you need to grasp it.

Shao Yong must have understood, Sima Guang knew in his heart that he was waiting for him to ask.He said softly, "Brother Yao, to tell the truth, I came back to Bianjing this time to report on my work, and secondly, to pay attention to Lin Zhao's case. If necessary, I want to be an admonishing minister!"

Sure enough!

Shao Yong's heart was shocked, and he said: "Brother Junshi's righteousness is awe-inspiring, and Yong really admires it!"

Who is Sima Guang?Known as Sima Niu, he is also a stubborn gentleman.He was known for his fairness, and when he said he wanted to save Lin Zhao, it was definitely out of righteousness.It is definitely not because of Zhang Zai's request, of course, there must be some connection.Mr. Zhang Zai's face needs to be sold more or less.

Also, one's own attitude and opinions have certain weight, especially at this moment, it may be the last weight on the balance to win!Shao Yong still felt a little complacent, the matter was of great importance, and he needed to act cautiously.

Sima Guang shook his head lightly: "Where is the awe-inspiring righteousness? These are all taught to me by Lin Zhao..."

oh?Shao Yong couldn't help being curious, it seems that the relationship between Sima Guang and Lin Zhao is quite deep!This is a good thing, and some things are much easier.

"Brother Junshi, what do you want to ask?" Shao Yong didn't need to be modest about these matters, and there was no need to beat around the bush at this moment.

"Lin Zhao!"

Sima Guang said in a deep voice, "I see that Brother Yao pays special attention to Lin Zhao and cares about Lin Zhao very much. You are also well versed in the study of astrology and divination, so there must be some mystery in it? I know that some secrets should not be revealed, but... I still hope Brother Yao will reveal a thing or two about who Lin Zhao is?"

To be precise, what Sima Guang wants to ask is who will Lin Zhao be in the future?

Others may not be able to say such predictive words, but Shao Yong, I believe he has this ability and certainty!Although his speech cannot be completely determined, it must have a high reference value.

In addition to Sima Guang's curiosity, this is also a good reference, and he will have a bottom line for what he does.

Shao Yong smiled and said: "The hexagram last time was about good luck, brother Junshi, don't you worry?" It stands to reason that this is enough, and good luck will inevitably turn bad luck into good luck.

According to Master Shao Yong's guess, not only will Lin Zhao not be convicted this time, but there will also be a big good thing waiting for him.Of course, as for what a good thing is, I can't say, this is a real mystery.But surviving a catastrophe will bring blessings, and this saying is also very appropriate for Lin Zhao.

"Shangshang Daji!" Sima Guang asked with a smile: "After Shangshang Daji? What will happen? Brother Yao is so curious, it must not be easy!"

Shao Yong smiled, took out a few copper coins with him, made another divination on the stone table in the garden, and said with a smile: "It's still good luck, and after the bad luck turns good luck, there will be... there will be good luck..." Looking at the hexagrams, he hesitated for a moment, and said again: "And it's not one, Lin Dongyang is truly blessed!"

Sima Guang was very helpless, Shao Yong had a dodge, so everyone said about him!What is the truth?Sima Guang was most concerned about this issue!
"Brother Yao, is it true that the secret must not be leaked?" Sima Guang's expression became more solemn, and this time he asked very formally!
Seeing this, Shao Yong knew that he had already reached that level. If he was beating around the bush, Sima Guang would probably be angry!Maybe it will backfire!

"Okay, then Yong will tell you the truth!" Shao Yong said in a deep voice: "When we first met, I found that Lin Zhao was extraordinary, and the temperament exuding from him was extraordinary. I tried it, but I couldn't see it. To see through his fate, at least in the past, he was unable to see through. But in the future...

At that time, I just had a guess. If it is true, then he will definitely encounter a catastrophe when he goes to the northwest this time, and then he will turn the bad luck into good luck, and there will be good luck in the future! "

Sima Guang nodded slightly: "No wonder you are so concerned about his actions in the northwest!"

"That's right! You've seen the current situation!" Shao Yong said: "My calculations suggest that he should encounter wars and prisons, and now all of them have come true, so I guess my guess is almost inseparable!"

"Is his future really limitless?" Sima Guang asked in a deep voice.

Shao Yong hesitated for a moment, sighed softly, and said eight words: "Turning the tide, ZTE's... talent!"

When the words came to his lips, he abruptly changed the word "master" to "cai". The matter is really important, how can such treasonous words be easily uttered!

It's hard to say what Sima Guanghui's attitude and reaction will be.If there is a slight mistake, neither he nor Lin Zhao can survive, and Shao Yong dare not take this risk.The top priority is to follow the heavens and rescue Lin Zhao, let's not talk about other things for the time being, it's all for the future!

"Turning the tide, the talent of ZTE!" Sima Guang muttered to himself, he never expected Shao Yong to have such a high opinion of Lin Zhao, this son is really extraordinary...

Seeing this, Shao Yong continued: "However, if we want to save the day, we still need the help of noble people..."

"Help me, nobleman?" Sima Guang hesitated for a moment, then smiled lightly.Shao Yong's intention at the moment is very clear, and he has been beating around the bush for a long time, the real purpose is here!
Is it just that you are that noble person?Sima Guang felt that his weight was still too light!
