The rise of the late Song Dynasty reigns supreme

Chapter 258 Are You Wang Yun?

Prince Zhao Huan didn't dare to say any more when he saw this. If he said a word more, he might offend his father and the consequences would be unimaginable.From the moment Zhao Ji entered the hall, his eyes never stayed on Zhao Huan for more than a minute, they just passed by in a hurry.

Even if he looked at him, he didn't have a good face, his eyes were cold as if he had seen through him, which made Zhao Huan feel like he was sitting on pins and needles. More annoyed but helpless.

What happened today, Prince Zhao Huan already understood in his heart, if he said more, he might get angry, the only thing he could do was to keep silent.Even if he was unwilling, he had to bear such a result. Zhao Gou successfully won over the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, not to mention, and further lost his majesty.

If this trend continues, I am afraid that it will not be long before there will be no place for him in the court. Zhao Gou is more and more favored by the emperor, and he will be sentenced directly without witnesses.Now there is the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, so it can be said that as long as Zhao Gou decides that even if the matter is troubled by the emperor, he will be unlucky in the end, so he can only admit it, even if he is beheaded, he has to endure it.

Everyone has not forgotten that Zhao Gou has a Shangfang sword in his hand, which can be cut first and played later.Thinking of this, everyone's necks shuddered, as if the sword was slashing towards them, they were shocked, and looked at Zhao Gou in horror.Now some people are starting to fear for their own safety, while others are starting to think about where they stand.

Judging from what happened today, the crown prince Zhao Huan has fallen out of favor. Even the crown prince is just now, not in the future. Therefore, some people have to think about these issues, so that the atmosphere in the hall seems much quieter.

Gao Yu and the others looked at each other in blank dismay. At this time, they were also very shocked. If this matter really develops like this, they are afraid that the future situation will become more and more unfavorable to them.Now Zhao Gou is just monitoring the censor, if he really holds the power, I'm afraid their doomsday will really come.

The more they thought about it, the more afraid they became, and the more they thought about it, the more frightened they became. The situation in front of them told them that it was really not far away.Gao Qiu and the others panicked, sweating profusely, in a trance, their eyes full of horror.When they looked up at Zhao Gou again, their eyes were no longer ridiculed as before, but fearful.

Li Bangyan's death was just an opportunity, and the effect of this opportunity was beyond Zhao Gou's expectation.He guessed that what he did would definitely arouse fierce reactions from the officials, but he didn't want to leave everyone in awe. Some ministers even wanted to stand in line again and were unwilling to advance and retreat with Prince Zhao Huan. Even Gao Qiu and others were afraid color.

It is conceivable that Li Bangyan's death made Zhao Gou no longer need to worry about standing above the court. This is the real opportunity; secondly, Zhao Gou also wanted to take this opportunity to formally compete with Prince Zhao Huan.At the risk of offending Long Yan, Zhao Gou was pleading for the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment. As a result, some ministers had a greatly changed image of him. They no longer had only fear as before. Big trouble.

The matter of the Ministry of Justice made the officials see Zhao Gou's clear distinction between public and private, and his broad-minded side. Li Bangyan's death saw Zhao Gou's cautious, vigorous and capable side.Everyone thought of the victories he had led the army and the emperor's favor. It can be said that Zhao Gou's rise has become unstoppable and has become an inevitable trend.

This time the court officially announced that Zhao Gou stood above the court, and no one could shake his position.Even the prince Zhao Huan is hard to shake, Song Huizong's previous attitude has shown that Zhao Gou's status in his heart is much higher than that of Zhao Huan, and it is clear which one is higher and which is lower.

After the court was over, everyone had their own thoughts and bowed silently to leave.

Zhao Gou, Zhao Yougong and others left with smiles on their faces. Zhao Yougong asked in a low voice, puzzled, "Didn't you say you were watching a play? Why did you stand out again?"

Zhao Gou laughed softly: "Cousin, there are always some things that go beyond our expectations, isn't that good?"

Zhao Yougong was silent, Zhao Gou's words were correct, after this incident, Zhao Gou's full wings should not be underestimated.Li Bangyan's death itself was to give Zhao Huan a warning. It can also be said that Zhao Gou made an important move, but got an unexpected surprise.

Until now, Zhao Yougong still remembers that the officials looked at Zhao Gou with different eyes than before, not only fear, but also admiration.It can be said that Zhao Gou is no longer fighting alone since then, and has gained the loyalty of the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment.

"No matter how detailed the plan is, there will always be a day of change. Only adapting to the situation is the kingly way!" Zhao Gou glanced around, saw no one else, lowered his voice, and said helplessly: "I didn't want to stand up at first, but Father has been staring at me, do you think you can stay out of it?"

"What, this is..." Zhao Yougong couldn't hold back for a while, almost slipped his tongue, seeing Zhao Gou staring at him, he quickly lowered his voice, and said dumbfoundedly: "It turns out that this is what the emperor meant, no wonder you suddenly appeared to plead for mercy, Understood!"

Zhao Gou shook his head helplessly, being completely defeated by Zhao Yougong, he despised him fiercely in his heart.

Zhao Yougong's resourcefulness is indeed not bad, but it's a pity that he doesn't know how to read words and expressions. You must know that when Zhao Ji made eye contact with Zhao Gou, he was by his side.At that time, Zhao Yougong thought that there was something wrong with him, but he felt a little strange but didn't understand what was going on.

At this moment, an eager voice came from behind: "His Royal Highness, please go slowly!"

When Zhao Gou heard someone calling him, he turned around curiously, and Zhao Yougong also turned around, only to see that the person who came was Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, who was Zhao Gou's pleading man.Although Zhao Gou pleaded with the emperor, the two had never met, and they didn't even know his name.

"Master Shang Shu, do you need me?" Zhao Gou asked in surprise.

The minister of the Ministry of punishment nodded heavily, and said gratefully: "If I hadn't pleaded with the king of the county, I'm afraid I would not be the minister of the Ministry of punishment. This time I have received the kindness of the king of the county, Wang will always remember it in his heart, and he will do his best for any assignments in the future!"

"Sir Shangshu, you are being polite. I just told the truth and didn't say much. You don't need to be like this!"

"If it's true, how can there be no one else in the court interceding, only the county king!" The Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment laughed at himself. There are not many officials, so they are a little disheartened.

Zhao Gou's intercession in court today was nothing more than a win-win for others, but it was more important than ever for him.The officialdom is different than usual, no matter how good the relationship is in private, no one will risk your official position to help you.

Seeing that he was meticulous and didn't mean to make any jokes, Zhao Gou readily agreed.Then, he asked again: "I don't know the name of Lord Shangshu?"

"Wang Yun!" Wang Yun blurted out.

"What, you are Wang Yun?" Zhao Gou was startled, and hurriedly asked, "Are you from Zezhou, Shanxi?"

Wang Yun was stunned by Zhao Gou's astonishment. Monk Zhang Er couldn't figure it out, and wondered how he knew his household registration, but he replied respectfully: "Wang is from Zezhou, Shanxi. Could it be that the county king heard about it?" Over Weichen?"

Zhao Gou couldn't help but look at Wang Yun. Seeing his handsome appearance, honest face, and bony appearance, Zhao Gou thought helplessly, "I didn't expect it to be him. It's really destined!"
