Big Song Xiaohou Ye

Chapter 143 Finding the Root
Ding Qi saw that his father seemed to be crazy, he dealt with him and begged at the same time, he didn't know what happened to his father today, he was addicted to playing drugs!

Seeing that he still dared to dodge, Ding Wei said angrily, "Stop him!" Two imperial guards hurried up and held Ding Qi down.

"Crack!" "Ouch!" There was a muffled sound of a stick, accompanied by the scream of a pig being slaughtered.

Ding Qi kept wailing, "Father, I was wrong! Daddy, stop beating! Daddy..." Ding Wei was so angry that he just wanted to beat him to death with a stick. This idiot has no eyesight at all!
"You bumped into Your Majesty, see if I don't beat you to death! How dare you beg for mercy!" Ding Wei cursed while beating.

Ding Qi finally realized that he felt his own feelings. I had been hinting at himself all the time, so he hurriedly cried, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I know I was wrong. Please forgive me!"

Zhao Zhen didn't speak at the beginning, and was annoyed by his howls like killing pigs. Seeing that Ding Wei's blows were really powerful, Ding Qi now had no good meat all over his body, so he said: "Prime Minister, stop!" , don’t break your precious son.”

Ding Wei heard the sarcasm in his words, and he didn't bother to refuse. He quickly threw the stick in his hand, and knelt down again: "Thank you, Your Majesty! The old minister will definitely teach him a lesson when he returns! Sinister, please thank Your Majesty!"

Ding Qi was lying on the ground, his face was swollen like a pig's head, his bottom was like a broken watermelon, and the slightest movement was painful. He couldn't kneel up, so he lay on the ground and cried: "Thank you Your Majesty for not killing me."

"Repay the money you owe the store first! If you dare to do this again in the future, I will never forgive you lightly!" Zhao Zhen finally let out his anger, and felt relieved.

"Don't dare anymore, don't dare anymore!" Ding Qi hurriedly said after learning the lesson.

Zhao Zhen waved his hand in disgust, and Lei Yungong hurriedly said sharply: "If you don't go down, why are you standing there!"

Ding Wei hastily motioned to the two Song soldiers to carry Ding Qi out, and he also bowed and retreated.

Lei Yungong secretly heaved a sigh of relief, he and Ding Wei have always been on good terms, and this time he allowed Ding Qi to cause such a catastrophe, he felt very guilty, seeing that Ding Qi finally got his life back, he felt relieved.

"What should we do?" Lei Yungong said to the remaining soldiers of the imperial army.

"Wait!" Zhao Zhen said.

"What orders does Your Majesty have?" Lei Yun said respectfully.

Zhao Zhen ignored him, and went forward and said, "Which camp are you from?"

It was the first time that little soldier saw him today, he hurriedly fell to his knees, his body was still shaking, he was stuttering and unable to speak.

"Don't be afraid, I know that you are just taking orders from the superior, and I will not make things difficult for you." Zhao Zhen said softly.Li Ce secretly said, Zhao Zhen is indeed a benevolent and righteous king, and he can be so considerate of a soldier.

Hearing the words, the little soldier eased his nervousness a little, he swallowed hard and said: "Little man, this little man is a soldier of the Eighth Army on the left side of the Japanese army. We are on duty today, and I don't know that your majesty is here again. Shi The commander only said that someone was making trouble again..." The soldier also knew how to shirk his responsibility, but Shi Dahuan couldn't come back anyway, so he simply buckled all the shit on him!
Zhao Zhen nodded noncommittally and said, "Take me to your barracks."

Lei Yungong secretly groaned in his heart, today this matter is getting worse and worse, seeing His Majesty's intentions, he has no intention of stopping at all, why is he so unlucky, if he knew it earlier, he would not follow, now that the trouble is like this, he will go back and complain to the Queen Mother Difficult to deal with, the second prime minister Ding said that I don't know how to explain it, and the third is that the ministers in the morning court tomorrow will not let me go.How could the miscellaneous family be so unlucky!
The Japanese Army, one of the Fourth Army of the Northern Song Dynasty, was mainly infantry, with a total of 5 horses, stationed in the east of the city, and the commander was Xue Gaohan.

Xue Gaohan is more than 50 years old this year, with a vicissitudes of life. This person rose up in the war before the Song, Liao, and Chanyuan alliances. He was promoted by virtue of his military exploits. He is in charge of an imperial army, and it is the largest among the upper four armies.

Before holding the Japanese army camp, Zhao Zhen got out of the carriage, Lei Yungong wanted to step forward to help, but Zhao Zhen tossed his robe sleeves and left on his own, Lei Yungong stood awkwardly on the spot and happened to see Li Ce Li Ce didn't mean to make fun of the look he cast, but in Lei Yungong's eyes, it was clearly a mockery, and his jealousy towards Li Ce increased a bit.

"Hey, Wang San came back so early? Where's Commander Shi?" The gatekeeper greeted the guarding guards when they saw the returning Imperial Army.

The leader's surname is Wang, and he is the third child, so everyone calls him Wang San.Wang San winked at him hurriedly, signaling him not to be fussy.

"Why are you winking? I'm asking you Commander Shi?" The man ignored his hints and asked relentlessly.

"This is His Majesty!" Wang San whispered anxiously.

"Ah?! Haha...Wang San, you lied again. I think you are getting bolder." The man was taken aback, then laughed loudly.

"Open your mouth for the miscellaneous family! How dare you be disrespectful to His Majesty." Lei Yungong suddenly stepped forward, poked his hand continuously, and yelled loudly.Li Ce thought to himself, you eunuch are angry but vent your anger on the guards.

Wang San sighed, raised his big hand and slapped it with a big ear scraper... After this slap, everyone believed that His Majesty had really arrived, and the soldiers guarding the gate dropped their weapons one after another, knelt on the ground and shouted long live.

Zhao Zhen glanced at Lei Yungong with displeasure, he didn't intend to punish the soldier guarding the gate, Lei Yungong's presumptuous assertion was obviously trying to be smart.

"Go to the camp of the Chinese army." Zhao Zhen ordered lightly.

"Your Majesty is going to the camp of the Chinese army, didn't you hear? Don't lead the way yet!" Lei Yungong scolded again.

"Can't I say it myself? I want you to talk too much! Leave it to me and stay behind!" Zhao Zhen finally got angry. This Lei Yungong knew that he didn't like him, but he kept moving forward. It's really annoying!
"Yes, Your Majesty calm down, this servant will step back." Lei Yungong hurriedly bowed and stepped aside.

Li Ce saw that his speech and behavior were a bit strange, this old man was usually very shrewd, what happened today?Zhao Zhen repeatedly exposed his face to him. If he is a sensible person, he can hide as far away as possible. Why does he keep moving forward?
Holding the large tent of the Japanese army in the middle of the entire camp, only half a mile away from the gate, when he was about to reach the tent of the Chinese army, one person opened the curtain door, while arranging his clothes, he quickly stepped forward to greet him.

"The last general welcomes the holy mountain. I didn't know that the holy majesty was coming. I didn't meet him from afar. I hope that your majesty will make amends." Xue Gaohan's old face was a little red, and he half knelt on the ground.

"Go in and talk." Zhao Zhen didn't tell him to get up, so he entered the big tent with a sullen face.

Xue Gaohan looked at Lei Yungong in a panic, but he saw Lei Yungong secretly shook his head at him, then nodded again, Xue Gaohan was puzzled, how could His Majesty come to support the Japanese army suddenly, and his face seemed a little angry, He didn't dare to stay any longer, so he hurriedly got up and followed inside.

This scene was seen by Li Ce, and he suddenly realized why Lei Yungong punished the soldiers and scolded the soldiers when he entered the door. The reason why this old thief made such a big noise was to make some noise on purpose, so as to Xue Gaohan reported.Looking at Xue Gaohan's embarrassed expression when he came out just now, it was clear that he rushed out in a hurry when he learned about it temporarily. Unexpectedly, this Lei Yungong would dare to do these small tricks under His Majesty's nose. Committing a crime against the wind is really daring. Li Ce couldn't help casting admiring glances at him, but he was thinking of one sentence: Father Lei, if you don't do it, you won't die...

As soon as he entered the big tent, Li Ce smelled an unusual fragrance. When he sniffed it carefully, it turned out to be the smell of rouge and gouache. He couldn't help but look at Xue Gaohan, who was standing respectfully by the side, seeing Li Ce's eyes, his eyes I was a little flustered.

"If I remember correctly, General Xue was in charge of the Japanese army eight years ago, right?" Zhao Zhen asked while sitting on a chair, staring at Xue Gaohan.

"Thanks to His Majesty's appreciation, the last general is the commander-in-chief of the Japanese army who was promoted eight years ago." Xue Gaohan said in awe, he still doesn't understand why Zhao Zhen came here today, since he doesn't understand what it is, he I have no idea!

"Ding Wei is also the prime minister who was promoted eight years ago. Is it appreciated by me or by the prime minister?" Zhao Zhen snorted coldly.

Xue Gaohan couldn't help breaking out in cold sweat, Zhao Zhen pointed out that in fact, he climbed to today's seat just because of Ding Wei's way.When Ding Wei came to power eight years ago, he also needed to consolidate his power, so he dismissed a large number of senior officials and put in his own feathers. Xue Gaohan was just one of them.

"Hmph, why don't you speak? Was it right?" Zhao Zhen sneered.

"Your Majesty, it is clear that the general has some contacts with the prime minister, but that is limited to normal contacts, and the general does not dare to abolish the public for personal reasons!" Xue Gaohan plopped to his knees in defense.

"Hmph, don't you dare?" Zhao Zhen asked coldly.

"I don't know why Your Majesty said that." Xue Gaohan gritted his teeth and asked the matter clearly first, so he knew how to deal with it.

"Is my forbidden army used to deal with me?!" Zhao Zhen stood up suddenly, grabbed the teacup on the table and threw it at Xue Gaohan.

Xue Gaohan knelt on the ground and did not dare to dodge. The teacup hit his right shoulder, and the tea splashed all over his face, but this was nothing compared to the panic in his heart. What does His Majesty mean by asking this? !

"The last general was wronged! Your Majesty." Xue Gaohan didn't dare to wipe the tea off his face, and complained loudly with the tea leaves hanging all over his face.

"Wronged? You come and tell him whether I have wronged him!" Zhao Zhen suddenly pointed at Lei Yungong who was huddled aside.

Lei Yungong Lei was suddenly startled, he was thinking about how to explain to the Queen Mother and Ding Wei when he went back, but he didn't hear what Zhao Zhen said just now!Only when he looked up did he realize that everyone in the audience was looking at him, and he couldn't help but feel his heart pounding, his heart beating non-stop!He hurriedly looked up at Zhao Zhen, hoping he would say it again.

Seeing that he didn't hear what he said, Zhao Zhen couldn't help but angrily said: "Come here, pull down and hit the [-]th army stick!" He rarely punished the palace servants on weekdays, today Lei Yungong is really outrageous, After repeatedly adding fuel to the fire, he finally ordered the punishment.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please forgive me." Lei Yungong was so frightened that he knelt down on the ground, kowtowed desperately again to beg for mercy.

Zhao Zhen endured him again and again, and by now he was impatient, Li Ce winked at this, Di Qing and Guan Zhen understood, and they dragged Lei Yungong out like a dead dog.

"Let me tell," Li Ce glanced at Zhao Zhendong and said, "General Xue, I was having dinner with His Majesty in a restaurant today, but I didn't expect to meet Ding Qi, the prime minister's third son. Unexpectedly, Ding Qi, holding a grudge, actually brought soldiers from the Imperial Army to besiege His Majesty, and these soldiers are the ones you praised for the Japanese army."
