Chapter 65 Balance

But if Ye Qing can get the news one step ahead of his own family, Yan Tingcheng also thinks it's not realistic, right?

My own family, or because my father knew the people in the palace, and I was about to send the first batch of sheep's horn lanterns to the palace today, and I only knew about it for the first time when the two things came together.

Is Ye Qing more extensive than his father's connections? Yan Qingcheng looked at the back and shook his head with some confusion.

I saw that the back figure stood up at this time, stood on a stone by the lake and turned around, looked at himself with a smile and said, "The Jin man is dead, so even if the temporary threat of your family is contacted, your father won't regret giving us a promotion, right?" ”

Without waiting for Yan Chengcheng to speak, Ye Qing jumped up from the stone by the lake, jumped onto the wooden railing of the small bridge, and then jumped on the bridge deck and stood still in front of Yan Tingcheng.

"I have also learned a little about your Yan family's business in the past few days, most of the business in Lin'an City is more exquisite, to put it bluntly, it sells high-priced goods, and only the royal family and nobles, dignitaries and nobles can buy it. And your business outside Lin'an City is also very large, in full swing, every two months you will go out of the city to Jiankang, Jiangning and other places once, after all, the business there also needs you to go over to check ...... from time to time. ”

"I know what you mean, my Yan family doesn't care about the money, although I said something at the door of your courtyard just now, I said something that shouldn't be said, but I know that with the current situation of my Yan family, I really need your protection, so it is understandable to pay that silver." Yan Tingcheng's face was calm, and he usually followed beside him, like a tail You'er, but he didn't know where he went.

"Yo, this doesn't look like your character, it seems that you still don't worry about what I said can make the fabric ......."

"Whichever you say, I won't believe it until I see the real thing. But it does make you guess right, the fabric matter is indeed imminent, if it can be solved in two months, are you sure? "Yan Chengcheng has bright eyes and bright teeth, youthful and moving, and when he stands calmly on the small bridge, it is a little strange.

"Something in the palace? Also, how do you know that those two golden men are dead? Ye Qing was half a step behind Yan Qingcheng, looked at the girl in front of him who seemed to be a little tired, and asked.

"The body was found in Donghua Gate, and then I heard that I was met by the left and right ministers of the Great Song Dynasty when I went to the court, and then it quickly spread throughout the court, plus the oblique wind and drizzle Lou reported to the official, saying that the two people were lost or what, in short, now the entire Lin'an City almost knows, today two Jin envoys were murdered in Lin'an City." Yan Qingcheng sighed, although this matter has nothing to do with his family, but the ambush by the Jin people yesterday is indeed a fact, which makes people have to think about whether it is the revenge of the Yan family.

And the people sent by the palace also meant this, asking their father if this matter had anything to do with their Yan family, and now, after his father finished talking to him, he took Su Jin to the direction of the palace and Ningmen in a hurry.

Donghua Gate and Hening Gate one in the east, one in the north, plus the main gate of the palace, Li Zhengmen, is the three gates of the Southern Song Dynasty Palace, the west because of the Phoenix Mountain, so it is included in the palace, in this way, the wonderful palace has become, and the palace of other dynasties is completely different.

The Hening Gate is sometimes opened occasionally, which will allow some prestigious old courtiers to go out of the palace directly from here after the next court, so that they don't have to come out of the Lizheng Gate in a big circle, which is extremely labor-saving and time-saving.

At other times, when Heningmen went out of the palace as a person in the palace, in order not to take a long detour, he would enter and exit from here, which had some meaning of going through the back door.

Wang Huai and Liang Kejia got such treatment today, or Emperor Zhao Yan, because he was afraid that Tang Siwei and Wang Huai would have a conflict after the next court meeting, so he took advantage of the assassination of the Jin envoy and the fact that the matter was serious, so that Wang Huai and Liang Kejia and others immediately went to the scene of the greatest suspicion of assassination, the slanting wind and drizzle building.

"You mean that the Jin people ambushed the Yan family yesterday?" Wang Huai was in his study, asking Liang Ke's family.

"Yes, yesterday, Wang Deqian, a nobleman in Lizhong, reported to Yan Hongyuan, but it is said that when the Yan family's guards arrived outside the city, the eight golden people who ambushed the Yan family had already been killed by the Yan family's guards. Therefore, Xia Guan believes that in addition to the motive of the right minister to kill and blame you, it cannot be ruled out that the Yan family assassinated two Jin people in retaliation. Liang Kejia sat down and analyzed under Wang Huai's gesture.

Wang Huai nodded thoughtfully, continued to pacing in the study by himself, and after thinking about it, he said slowly: "The Yan family is a businessman, will you have the courage to grudge against the Jin people?" ”

After Wang Huai finished speaking, he waved his hand to Liang Kejia, and without waiting for Liang Kejia to explain the analysis in his heart, he asked with some curiosity: "But since the guards of the Yan family were able to fight back against the ambush of the Jin people yesterday, could this guard of the Yan family be so powerful?" Or is it that the noble Wang Deqian not only reported the letter, but also participated in the anti-killing ......? ”

"It's true that Wang Deqian didn't participate, and the palace won't participate, after all, these are two golden envoys, who were stabbed to death in my Great Song Lin'an, and the palace will not do this kind of thing that has a tense relationship with the Jin people and lifts a stone to shoot himself in the foot. What's more, the guards of the Yan family are not the real guards of the Yan family, but a transaction between Wang Zhiwang, the squire of the Ministry of War, and Yan Hongyuan, who hired ten forbidden soldiers in the imperial court, and it was these ten forbidden soldiers who killed the Jin people yesterday, so the lower officials thought that it was ...... The possibility of the Yan family's revenge is extremely small, and it is very likely that Tang Siwei did it deliberately. Liang Kejia sat on the chair, looked at Wang Huai, who was in front of him, and listened carefully to his analysis.

"Forbidden Army?" Wang Huai was shocked again, whether the forbidden army of the imperial court has combat effectiveness now, this is a well-known thing, today's forbidden army is far from being as brave as the forbidden army of the year, why was it that this time it was suddenly able to kill the Jin people?

Moreover, the Jin people came to the Great Song Dynasty, in order to show off the strength of their troops in the imperial court, the soldiers they brought over have always been warriors who are one in a hundred miles in the Jin country, and eight people ambushed ten forbidden troops, even in their own opinion, they all won without any suspense, but this time the forbidden army actually won?

And Wang Huai next, when he heard the details of what Liang Kejia said, it was not that the ten forbidden armies won the eight forbidden armies, strictly speaking, it was the three forbidden armies that broke the ambush of the eight forbidden armies, and there was no casualty.

Wang Huai's jaw almost fell in surprise, and he asked again and again who were the surnames of those forbidden soldiers, and whether they were closely related to the Tang family?

In Wang Huai's opinion, could it be that these forbidden troops were secretly planted by Tang Siwei? Could it be that it was to blame yourself that you arranged all this?

After all, now he has to be cautious and plan for the worst, above the court, because of the assassination of the Jin people, in order to appease and balance, the dispute between him and Tang Sihui finally came back after "disappearing" for a period of time.

That is, in this case, he and Liang Kejia strictly investigated the assassination of Jin Ren, and they must give Jin Guo an explanation, and Tang Siwei appeased Jin Guo, explaining that it was just an accident and regret, and he was willing to compensate the two Jin people for the assassination of Lin'an.

This is not the result that he Wang Huai wants, what he wants is that he will take full authority to deal with this matter, whether it is the communication with the Jin people or the assassination of the Chajin people, he wants to do it by himself.

Instead of being like this now, he and Tang Siwei were in charge of each other, and in this arrangement, the meaning of the saint was already extremely obvious.

Tang Siwei talked about peace this time, and now he is in charge of the matter of communicating with the Jin State after the assassination of the Jin people, so the meaning of the saint is to continue the peace, and he has never thought about it at all, and he will use this matter to start a war with the Jin people.

"So in this way, even if Wang Huai finds out the real murderer, or the murderer is arranged by him, he has no way to splash this dirty water on our Tang family? From this point of view, it is clear that the most important thing is you, father. Tang Shuo listened to Tang Sihui's analysis, and instantly felt enlightened, and said to Tang Sihui with a smile.

"The meaning of the saint's peace is obvious, but how to appease the Jin people next is also a tricky matter. The saint obviously also thinks that the assassination of the golden envoy has nothing to do with him Wang Huai, but he also handed over this matter to Wang Huai to investigate, obviously to turn the big thing into a small thing, and make it a small matter, as long as I can appease the golden envoy, everything else, the saint will not care. Tang Siwei was obviously dissatisfied with the ruling of the saint, and his tone was somewhat helpless and disappointed, this was a good time for him to bring down Wang Huai.

Such a will can only show that the Holy Lord did not intend to deliberately suppress the main battle faction led by Wang Huai through this matter, but he also did not want to use this as an opportunity to start the Northern Expedition again.

Therefore, whether it is the saint or the emperor and his old man, the thoughts of the two saints now must be completely to maintain the peaceful situation as they are now, and they can just be in a safe corner, as for recovering the northern land and continuing the northern expedition, obviously no one has that interest.

And this is also the value of his Tang Siwei, and why he can continue to be reused, even if he is impeached again, he can still stand in the court.

Whether it was Tang Siwei or Wang Huai, they were not satisfied with the emperor's arrangement, after all, in their opinion, the saint did this, it seemed to be impartial, and it seemed that they took care of their left and right sides and were the faces of the suspects.

But isn't that also a balancing act as an emperor? Let the two of them continue to contain each other above the court? continue to impeach each other and criticize each other, so as to nip the possibility of family dominance in the bud.

"Father's ...... Do you want those forbidden troops? Tang Shuo looked at Tang Sihui, who was in deep thought, if he wanted to appease Jin Guo, this was an extremely difficult and dangerous thing, even if his father had many years of friendship with Jin Guoren, but no one knew if Jin Ren would suddenly turn his face, right?

"What do you mean?" Tang Si turned his head back, looked at Tang Shuo and asked.

"What does the child mean is that since the father wants to appease the Jin Kingdom, then he must find the murderer of the Jin envoy, right? Although this matter was investigated and handled by Wang Huai and Liang Ke's family, the eight subordinates of the Jin envoy really died at the hands of those forbidden soldiers, so the child was worried that once the Jin people wanted us to hand over the murderer, could we push these forbidden troops out as ......scapegoats. ”

"Idiot! You are Wang Huai and Liang Ke's family, they will let you do this? Tang Siwei snorted dissatisfiedly, glanced at Tang Shuo, who began to sit upright, and said in a deep voice: "At this juncture, don't make another incident, the saint means to calm things down, but if you hand over the investigation to Wang Huai and Liang Ke's family, it means that the saint doesn't want this matter to make too much trouble, and implicate other people, so it is best to be able to calm it down silently." ”
