Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 783 The Dagger Appears

In all fairness, he and Wang Xiu did not have any unresolved enmity. They were children playing house in those years, and there was no absolute conflict of interest in these years. They even cooperated with each other. As a scholar who wanted to do something, he also Seeing Wang Xiu's achievements, and Wang Xiu's importance to the Song dynasty.

However, unless Wang Xiu is completely defeated, he will not be able to rise to power. The two evils are the lesser of two evils. He has chosen his own interests, and the interests of his family and country have been put aside.

As for the cooperation with the Jurchen, he didn't think about it at all, and it would be okay to use those pigs and sheep, just like she knew Chen Jiu's identity, so she decided to use it for a reason.

Wang Xiu didn't pay attention to Zhang Qiyuan any more. He appeared very calm and composed, and walked into the Chuigong Hall calmly, facing Zhao Chen with a bad face, Zhang Qiyuan with a calm face, and of course Tang Ge, Li Gang, and Qin Hui. Although his face is dull, I believe he must be uneasy.

The whole hall seemed extraordinarily solemn, and the anger was really suppressed, and even the imperial servant in the hall was trembling. Today is not a good day, so he simply stopped paying attention to everyone's etiquette.

In the Hall of Cishou, Zhu Lian seemed restless, but Han's soft words of comfort could not calm her worries.

The son went too far, even calling Wang Xiu into the palace to confront him. Could it be that father and son really want to kill each other?She could hardly control herself to rush out and tell Zhao Chen the whole truth.

It's a pity that she has to resist the strong impulse and maintain a calm detachment. At this moment, since Wang Xiu dares to enter the palace, she must have something to hold. She must not cause trouble and can only wait silently in the anxiety in her heart.

At the same time, she was also very worried. She knew Wang Xiu very well. He seemed to be a gentle gentleman with a polite attitude. A person who is good at compromise and communication, let everyone share the benefits.

If you really look at it that way, you are very wrong. You don’t even know how to die. Wang Xiuwang hides a decisive heart under her gentle appearance. It will be a blow like a storm, Zhao Chen obviously touched Wang Xiu's bottom line, she dare not imagine the coming conflict.

Son and Lao Tzu, what will happen to the conflict that breaks out between them?She didn't dare to imagine, and she didn't want anyone to be hurt.

Just when Zhu Lian was worried, in the hall, Zhang Qiyuan glanced at Wang Xiu, and said indifferently: "Master Wang, are you guilty?"

Tang Ge, Li Gang, and Qin Hui all looked at Zhang Qiyuan secretly, did they ask questions like that?It's just impatient, and it's a little too anxious to go into battle shirtless.

Wang Xiu ignored Zhang Qiyuan, looked at Zhao Chen calmly, and said in a deep voice, "I don't know what I'm guilty of?"

"Traffic court, there are proofs." Zhang Qiyuan said, filled with righteous indignation, his voice seemed a little hoarse.

Wang Xiu smiled contemptuously, knowing that the opening remark was such a shitty thing, and said indifferently: "If you want to commit a crime, there is nothing wrong with it."

"Zhang Qing's family, successor." Zhao Chen was very impatient. If Wang Xiu's reputation wasn't prominent, he didn't want to go through the motions at all. He would have learned Zhao Huan's knife skills a long time ago, so why bother!
An eunuch and Zhang Quan with a bruised nose and a swollen face were brought in. Zhang Quan was dragged in. Obviously, he was seriously injured, and several guards from the class watched over him.

Wang Xiu glanced at Zhang Quan's appearance, frowned slightly, and a flash of anger flashed in her eyes.He knew that Zhang Quan gritted his teeth and did not betray him, and he also heard that Zhang Quan was tortured, but when he saw this appearance, he couldn't help being furious, and shot Zhang Qiyuan coldly, this guy did too much portion.

Tang Ge, Li Gang, and Qin Hui were all sullen, waiting for the development of the situation, and each made their own calculations.

"What's the matter with you talking?" Zhang Qiyuan let the eunuch speak, he felt Wang Xiu's cold gaze, and he couldn't help feeling a little chilled.

The eunuch terrifiedly said it again, and said the route Zhang Quan sent Wang Xiu to the palace, with such detail that even Tang Ge, Li Gang, and Qin Hui couldn't help but be moved.

"Zhang Quan, at this point, you still have something to say." Zhang Qiyuan looked at Zhang Quan coldly, took advantage of Zhang Quan's coma, and gave him some threats and temptations. In front of the emperor, Wang Xiu was at an absolute disadvantage and was beaten. Zhang Quan, who can't speak, should know what to do, he just needs Zhang Quan's nod to confess.

The purpose of bringing Zhang Quan up was also to frighten Wang Xiu. It is impossible to hide the fact that Zhang Quan was tortured. It is a strange thing that important ministers do not have sources of information in the palace.Since everyone knows about it, then generously pull it out and let Zhang Quan understand that your master is hard to protect himself, so don't be delusional.

Wang Xiu glanced at the painting tool with Zhang Quan's handprint on it, threw it on the ground contemptuously, and sneered.

In Zhao Chen's eyes, this kind of behavior is definitely contempt for the existence of the emperor, and he couldn't help being furious, and said sharply: "Wang Xiu, you are so bold."

Wang Xiu was not in a state of panic, nor did she kneel down to plead guilty, but calmly bowed and said calmly: "I don't know what crime I committed, but I actually said that I trafficked in the court and ruined the empress dowager's reputation."

"You..." Zhao Chen couldn't answer. He could also say that Wang Xiu went to have an affair with his mother, which was a slap in the face.

Zhang Qiyuan saw that Wang Xiu looked so calm, but he didn't think there were many hole cards. This was just an appetizer. He said coldly: "You are still obsessed with it. Do you want to bet on Shanggong Qingjun from the Shanggong Bureau before you are willing to obey the law?"

"If you want to commit a crime, there is nothing wrong with it. Zhang Zichu, you can humiliate me, but you are so audacious that you dare to humiliate the Empress Dowager." Wang Xiu did not get angry, and calmly accused Zhang Qiyuan.

In fact, he was also smiling bitterly in his heart. Zhang Qiyuan's accusations were all true and not adulterated at all, but he didn't think that he was wrong.

Tang Ge glanced at Wang Xiu, and said softly: "Your Majesty, this is a serious matter, and you must speak carefully so as not to hurt your empress reputation."

Wang Xiu looked at Tang Ge more, he never thought that it was Tang Ge who spoke first, no matter what the other party was thinking, this love was accepted.

However, Li Gang and Qin Hui didn't open their mouths, and he didn't have any complaints. At this juncture, if one is not careful, it will be a disaster. Tang Ge is a person who will inevitably leave the court, so it is convenient to say something. Li Gang and Qin Hui are in the limelight. How can you joke about your future? A wise person will first look at the direction of the wind.

"There are all the witnesses and material evidence, Wang Xiu, why do you have sophistry?" Zhao Chen was very impatient, he ignored Tang Ge and scolded Wang Xiu directly.

"Your Majesty, where is the witness and where is the physical evidence?" Wang Xiu responded calmly.

"Bold, don't tell me I have to catch it myself." Seeing Wang Xiu's relaxed and casual behavior, Zhao Chen was furious immediately, and almost wanted to shoot the case.
