Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 370 Zhang Qiyuan's Calculation
Zhang Qiyuan's change of attitude was expected by Wang Xiu, and he said in a calm and unhurried manner: "Your Majesty, I will go to the bathroom yard to be punished, I hope your majesty will not withdraw the escort army, Nianhan will definitely go south, but he has no intention of attacking Kaifeng, Hejinguan Mountain is dangerous, Just send tens of thousands of troops to control Heyang, and they won't be able to fly even with their wings." After saying that, he bowed deeply to Zhao Huan, and retreated slowly, ignoring others, with a strong character.

Geng Nanzhong's face was livid, his whole body was trembling with anger, and he said in a hoarse voice: "Your Majesty, Wang Xiu is bold and reckless, despising the owner, it is difficult to convince the public if it is not important."

Zhao Huan hesitated, Wang Xiu's attitude made him unhappy, but the judgment about Nianhan going south made him unable to calm down for a long time.Besides, if the scholars of the Song Dynasty really dared to shake their sleeves with the emperor, what could the emperor do?He didn't conspire against him, and he was convicted by you, but he could gain a huge reputation. Hearing Geng Nanzhong's grievance, he couldn't help but softly said: "I know that the Qing family is wronged, and we'll see later."

Geng Nanzhong's beard trembled, he wished he could kill Wang Xiu immediately, anyway, Zhao Huan had already ordered killing, so killing one more literati was nothing.However, he also understood Zhao Huan's thoughts, Wang Xiu really couldn't be killed, Zhao Huan was definitely not a fool.

Zhang Qiyuan watched Wang Xiu leave with cold eyes, but said slowly: "Your Majesty's words are very true, if Nianhan retreats within two or three days, naturally Wang Xiu will be punished severely and will not be treated leniently." As he spoke, he gave Geng Nanzhong a wink.

Geng Nanzhong understood, took a deep breath, anyway, he could afford to wait for two or three days, and secretly planned to take down Wang Xiu completely, absolutely dismissing this guy as a remnant of Cai Jing's crimes, and let go of his anger.

Zhao Huan went back to the inner palace in a state of distraught, just in time to meet Zhu Lian coming over, but he was not in the mood to respond.

Zhu Lian looked strange, and couldn't help asking: "All the captives have retired, why are the officials unhappy?"

Zhao Huan took a sip of tea and said dissatisfiedly, "It's not because of Wang Xiu."

"Oh, did something happen?" Zhu Lianfang's heart trembled slightly, but her pretty face was calm.

Zhao Huan saw that Zhu Lian's complexion did not change, and he felt much more comfortable. He didn't want to admit that he valued Wang Xiu's taste to Zhu Lian, but he was very uncomfortable anyway, and always felt awkward.

"My lady, Wang Xiu is going too far. He even said that Nianhan will go south in two or three days. I don't know what he is thinking. The day before yesterday, I fought with Wulibu, but I don't know why. It almost ruined my plan. .”

Zhu Lian sighed softly, and thoughtfully said: "Officials, it seems that Zhige is not suitable to stay in the capital."

"What about my lady? Well, he is handsome." Zhao Huan was surprised by Zhu Lian's words. For literati, if they don't accumulate seniority, who would want to go to other places?But at the same time, he felt uneasy, and said hesitantly: "After all, he has made great contributions. Let him out, I'm afraid it will attract gossip."

Zhu Lian understood that Zhao Huan still couldn't tolerate Wang Xiu, but he was worried about everyone's mouth, her beautiful eyes flashed with deep disappointment, and she said lightly: "Don't forget the officials, it's enough for the Zhige to stand up to the sword, the concubine dare not say that she knows." He is a human being, but he is not right about things, and his allegiance is to his family, country and the world."

Zhao Huan glanced at Zhu Lian, thought about Wang Xiu's deeds, and couldn't help but believe that before and after he succeeded to the throne, Wang Xiu didn't deliberately curry favor with him because he was the crown prince, nor did he deliberately flatter him just because he was the emperor. Let go of your reserved obsession, and do things conscientiously every time, so that you can hardly jump out of flaws.

Even when Zhao Gou and Zhang Bangchang came back, they said that Wang Xiu was in Luzhai with a grand appearance, and his advances and retreats were well-founded, so Wu Li gritted his teeth with hatred, but he had to swallow his anger.

"My lady, what should I do?"

"The concubine is the inner palace, so it's up to the officials to make up their minds." Zhu Lian said modestly, "However, the officials must not forget the merits of Zhige, if he can't get along well with Mr. Geng, please treat him kindly. Residents are punished by population."

Zhao Huan nodded, and took over Zhu Lian's suggestion. No matter what he did, no matter whether he liked Wang Xiu or not, he had made great contributions to his succession. He repelled Zhao Kai with a sword. It can be said that he is not under Wu Min.

He is going to depose Wang Xiu within a few days of taking the throne, what will the scholars in the world think of him?It must be jealous of the virtuous and capable, and cannot be tolerated. These people are not afraid that you are the emperor.

"It's a pity that he cut himself off, and I can't be thorough."

"Officials, can you see that Zhige has been reckless?"

"This... not punishing is not good after all."

"The officials can figure it out on their own, and the concubine's body and words are all here."

Just as Wang Xiu entered the bathroom yard, the news spread immediately. Geng Nanzhong was full of resentment, glared at Zhang Qiyuan with gloomy eyes, and said in a deep voice, "Zi Chu, what do you think?"

Zhang Qiyuan smiled lightly, and said playfully: "Master, Wang Xiu is too Meng Lang!"

"Well, Lizi is hateful and must be dealt with severely." Geng Nanzhong didn't hide his thoughts.

"My lord, Wang Xiu has made great achievements, and he is not too involved with the six thieves. Even Wang Fu was defeated by him, so he can't move!" Zhang Qiyuan sighed a lot, and quietly said: "This guy is too calculating. , take one step and see three steps!"

"Then he was wrong this time." Geng Nanzhong said bitterly.

"Perhaps! But it's not the time to take him down. Mr. Xianggong has served the official family for 14 years. Don't you know what the official family worries about the most?" Zhang Qiyuan smiled mysteriously.

Geng Nanzhong nodded silently, his face calmed down a lot, he naturally understood the urgent task.

"At the critical moment, we can't allow the officials to be honest. Besides, Wang Xiu is also a famous person, so it's just a matter of driving him away." Zhang Qiyuan smirked.

He concluded that Wang Xiu would definitely want to stay in the capital, and with his meritorious service, he was definitely expected to be promoted. To him, Wang Xiu's use value decreased, but the threat increased instead, so it was impossible to stay.Since Geng Nanzhong is jealous of Wang Xiu, why not join hands with Lao Geng and let the old man charge into the battle to deal with Wang Xiu. Anyway, he is destined to enter the sect of Zhongshu, and he is not without the ability to resist. As long as he endures it for a few years, there is no need to worry about dealing with Geng Nanzhong. .

Geng Nanzhong squinted his eyes and twisted his beard without saying a word. He didn't fully understand Zhang Qiyuan's thoughts, but he also knew that the other party was using him, so he couldn't help cursing secretly: villain.

"It's best to lift up the temple and rest with people for a while, that's good intentions! Besides, he is the reincarnation of a fairy, and it is common sense to practice Taoism for several years." Zhang Qiyuan gritted his teeth and smiled.

Geng Nanzhong smiled sinisterly, this guy's idea is not bad, Wang Xiu must be depressed to death.He also knew that Wang Xiu had great achievements. Zhao Huan would not be cruel if he didn't trust Wang Xiu. Letting Wang Xiu promote the palace was the maximum. What Zhang Qiyuan said was, isn't this guy the true emperor of the beginning?Then you can go to cultivate your celestial beings and obtain the fruit.

"Sir, take ten thousand steps back, even if Wang Xiu's judgment is accurate, it's okay to recommend him as a prefect. If the officials want to welcome you back, don't miss this opportunity!" Zhang Qiyuan said leisurely, he can kill two birds with one stone, using Lao Geng as a weapon Well, since Wang Xiu didn't want to go out, he had to risk his life, and the two of them would lose out if they fought.
