The next day, Wang Yun asked Zong Ze to accompany him to the school to review the Cizhou soldiers and horses, and Zhao Ta followed, wanting to see it too. Because in "Saying Yue", it can be said that he is a loyal minister with the same name as Li Gang, who summoned the righteous army to protect Zhao Gou to ascend the throne, and was called 'Grandpa Zong' by the soldiers and civilians of Hebei.

When he arrived outside Cizhou City, Wang Yun asked Zong Ze, saying that you are not the emperor who gathered 15,000 soldiers and horses and put them in the city, but now there are not a few people outside the city, where are the soldiers now? Zong Ze said that all the militia were summoned, and they were all nearby, and when the enemy came, they would come and work in agriculture on weekdays, so that there was no need for the government to supply food and wages.

"Hehe, this Zong Ze is not an honest man!" Nie Shan looked left and right and said to the prince.

"Lord Nie, why do you say this?" Zhao Ta asked strangely, but he also felt that Zong Ze's statement of gathering 15,000 soldiers was a bit watery, even if he really recruited so many soldiers as he said, the scale of the camp could not accommodate so many people.

"Zong Ze played the recruitment of thousands of troops, the court allocated a lot of food and salary, and also promoted Zong Ze to revision, now it seems that what he has played is not true!" Nie Shan shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"You have vainly played that 15,000 people have fallen into the city and deceively obtained the post of repair, where are the soldiers now? Where is the village? Wang Yun began to question Zong Ze.

"If you take a leave of absence to farm, you can naturally order when the enemy horse comes." Zong Ze still replied.

"Why did the two of them quarrel as soon as they met, is there any old grudge?" Zhao Ta is a little strange, this kind of thing abounds in the Great Song Dynasty, and Wang Yun is not a person who does not know about world affairs, but the words of the two of them are full of gunpowder.

"The prince didn't know, a few days ago, Wang Shangshu was running back and forth between Song and Jin for the matter of peace, and when he saw that Zhending City was broken back to Beijing, he passed by Cizhou and informed the prefect of Zong. said that the Jin army was about to attack south, and asked him to clear the field to prevent the Jin army from plundering. So the prefect of the sect ordered that all the grain in the hands of the people be put into the city. But who knew that the Jurchens were short of food, and they also knew that Cizhou had no food. Then he turned to attack the Daimyo. Nie Chang explained to the prince, "In the future of the Jin army, the matter of strengthening the wall and clearing the wilderness has caused the people to complain, and the prefect of this sect called Wang Shangshu fornicating with the Jurchens, and the upper play impeached him for the fine work of the Jin State, and the saint felt that this matter was ridiculous, so he showed the watch to Wang Shangshu!" ”

"Oh, Wang Shangshu is dissatisfied in his heart, this is Xingshi's questioning!" Zhao Ta understood. However, he doesn't quite believe that Wang Yun is a spy, Wang Yun was ordered by the emperor to negotiate peace, and it is normal work to go back and forth between Song and Jin, so it is very far-fetched to say that he is a spy on this ground.

"Of course, Wang Shangshu also takes care of both public and private interests!" Nie Shan chuckled, but he didn't mean to persuade.

"The last chapter of the public is impeached, I don't know why?" While the two were talking, sure enough, Wang Yun began to make trouble.

"It's not just the impeachment of Wang Shangshu alone, all the lords and ministers who have misled the country. Zong is impeached! But whoever grows up with the power of the enemy, everyone in the world hates it with gritted teeth, and it is not just a certain person in the sect who is dissatisfied. Zong Ze also retorted without showing weakness, and Zhao Ta looked at Nie Shan's face flushed. must have been involved in Zong Ze, no wonder he also sat on the mountain and watched the tiger fight.

"How did Master Zong know that Wang Yun was a spy?" Zong Ze was speechless...

"Where is the evidence? Where are the witnesses? "Zong Ze is ashamed... Under Wang Yun's repeated questioning, Zong Ze was speechless. And he lied about his military exploits, and everyone saw that what he said was clearly untrue. He was a little annoyed and angry, but he only blindly emphasized his idea of peace. Running back and forth is a spy of the Jin Kingdom.

"What does Master Nie think?" Zhao Ta was a little speechless when he watched the two arguing.

"Wang Shangshu can't be a spy, he has a blood feud with the Jurchens, how can he be a spies of the Jurchens!" Nie Shan said.

"Oh, I want to hear about it!" Zhao Ta was not familiar with Wang Yun, frowned and said, he also quickly learned something about him from Nie Shan's mouth.

Wang Yun is also a second-generation official, Wang Yun's father admired the Tang people "Nan Jiyun", and hoped that his two sons would die in the same way as the king and be a famous minister through the ages, so he named the two "Wang Ji" and one "Wang Yun". Like most people in the court, he was also a Jinshi, but his father was on the wrong side and was beaten as Yuanyu's party, so he was deposed. His brother Wang Ji was demoted to Hainan for impeaching Cai Jing and Tong Guan.

After the fall of Cai Jing and Tong Guan, his brother Wang Ji was sent back to Beijing and sent to the army to help him go to the siege of Taiyuan. The Song army was defeated, the seed division was killed in battle, Wang Ji also died in the royal matter, and the Wang family can be regarded as the home of heroic martyrs. Therefore, Wang Yun and the Jurchens made a feud, and since he was ordered to be an envoy, he forgot his selfishness and his country, and faithfully carried out Zhao Huan's will, not hesitating to put on a flattering appearance. If you look at it from Zhao Huan's point of view, Wang Yun can be called a loyal minister, a subordinate who does his best to serve the country. And the next development of things gradually exceeded Zhao Ta's common sense...

The quarrel between Zong Ze and Wang Yun gradually attracted the attention of the surrounding people, and they gathered one after another. Zong Ze is quite popular in Cizhou, and the people of Cizhou know that since the Jin soldiers went south, the Cizhou governors repeatedly appointed by the imperial court are unwilling to come to take office, and finally this Zong Daren is willing to come, recruit troops to repair the city and prepare to fight against the Jin soldiers and protect their homes.

It is said that it was Wang Yun's suggestion that the people of Cizhou and Xiangzhou were spared a rebellion, because Wang Yun's kindness saved the people of the two places, which should have been a good thing to be celebrated. But when the people saw that the Jin soldiers did not come, they all thought that Qingye's actions had caused them to tear down the walls and destroy the houses, move grain and grass, and after this toss, they all scolded Wang Yun for being a Jin man, bluffing for the Jin soldiers, and scaring the people of the Song Dynasty.

Now I heard that this Wang Yun is going to send King Yan to Jinying, and he will also cede the land north of the Yellow River, so that all the people of Cizhou will be reduced to slavery and let the Jin soldiers kill and plunder them. Also, Master Zong wanted to persuade King Kang not to negotiate peace, swear to defend the land to the death, and protect the people of Li, but this Wang Yun actually shouted at Lord Zong, saying that Lord Zong had deceived the emperor, and he clearly wanted to give Lord Zong a crime of bullying the king.

Comparing the two, the tendency of the people can be imagined, so as soon as they heard the rumor of Wang Yun and Zong Ze's quarrel, they were immediately dissatisfied with Wang Yun, and scolded him for being a spy of the Jin Kingdom, shouting that they would kill him. Of course, Wang Yun wanted to prove himself, so he quarreled with the people, but how could he defeat the thousands of mouths of the people with one mouth, and he could only keep retreating in the shouting of killing.

But in the face of the people besieging the important ministers of the court, Zong Ze did not step forward to stop it, nor did he explain, let alone use the appropriate means to calm the situation, but waited and let it deteriorate. This made Zhao Ta very puzzled, is this Zong Ze really not afraid of being impeached and punished again, or does he have some other purpose?

Seeing that Wang Yun was about to be drowned by the spittle of the people, Zhao Ta, who was standing on the city wall, couldn't ignore it, he ordered people to hurry down to the city to snatch Wang Yun out of the crowd and escort him into the city.

………

After dinner, Zhao Ta was still thinking about what happened during the day, and in his memory, he vaguely remembered that there was a major event in Cizhou in the history of the Song Dynasty, that is, Zhao Gou, who was sent to the Jin Kingdom, accepted Zong Ze's suggestion here, stopped and did not go to Jinying to negotiate peace, and went to Xiangzhou from then on. Then Bianjing was besieged, and he was appointed as the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses, and asked him to lead the army to the king. And Zhao Gou also got rid of the fate of being captured and achieved an imperial career, and Wang Yun, who insisted on going north to negotiate peace, was also beaten and killed by the people here.

"Second master, Zong Ze, the prefect of Cizhou, asks to see you!" The guards guarding outside the courtyard came in and said.

"Let him wait in the hall, I'll be there later!" Zhao Ta thought about it and said, he vaguely felt that the things back then would definitely not be as simple as recorded in the history books.

"Xiaguan greets the prince!" Zong Ze saw that the prince was coming, and hurriedly saluted.

"Master Zong's courtesy, is there something important to do here late at night?" Zhao Ta looked Zong Ze up and down, this old man is over sixty years old, but his spirit is not bad, although he is a civil official, but he is wearing a military uniform, carrying a sword at his waist, and his demeanor is a bit of a strategizing general, but the scholarly spirit between his eyebrows is difficult to hide, and there is less of the murderous atmosphere of blood-stained clothes.

"Lord Wang, the lower officials have detected that the Jin army has captured Wei County, and is preparing to cross the Yellow River to the south and head south!" Zong Ze replied, the prince looked at him, he also looked at Zhao Ta carefully, and said that Prince Yan could fight well, but he didn't have the killing spirit of an ordinary general, but he was like an ordinary scholar, and it was hard to believe that he had led the army to conquer Western Xia, save Taiyuan, and defeat Zong Han, the marshal of the Jin Army's West Road.

"Oh, what is the Sect Master going to do?" Zhao Ta took the tea handed over by Jianxi and took a sip and said.

"The lower official ordered the whole city to be on alert, and the governor of the Northern Province, the Daimyo Mansion, stayed behind and sent Lord Zhao Ye to the states to ask for support!" Zong Ze replied, but his eyes kept staring at the prince, Cizhou and the Daimyo's Mansion were only a stone's throw away, and the Jin army could reach at any time, but when he heard the news, King Yan didn't seem to react much, if he wasn't calm, he was scared stupid.

"Well, once the Jin army crosses the Yellow River, there is no danger to defend on the south bank, and the Jin army can reach the capital in two days, when is Master Zong going to help?" Zhao Ta nodded and asked.

"The lower official originally wanted to go to reinforcements with all the soldiers and horses of the palace, but the prince's car was here, and the official received a report that the Jin army scouts were chasing the whereabouts of the prince everywhere, so he didn't dare to transfer troops without authorization!" Zong Ze replied.

"It's okay, this king will leave Cizhou tomorrow and go to Jinying to negotiate peace, don't think about this king, reinforce the daimyo as soon as possible, and don't let them cross the river to the east!" Zhao Ta waved his hand again and again.

"Does the prince still want to go north, the Jin people are fierce, King Su has not returned for a long time, King Yan is tantamount to meat entering the tiger's mouth, the prince must not go again!" Zong Ze suddenly stood up and said hurriedly.

"This king was ordered to go to Jinying to negotiate peace, this is not only a state affair, but also a family matter, and there are important ministers to accompany him, how can this king be afraid!" Zhao Ta chuckled and said, he knew that the Dao drama was coming... (To be continued......)
