The imperial doctor took Wang Ju's pulse, and it seemed that everything was normal...... But does he dare to say it?

It can't be said that Chinese medicine is bad, in this era, everyone relies on Chinese medicine to treat diseases, and the efficacy of some diseases is more effective than Western medicine.

But in general, there are too many unclear places in it. Or to put it another way, at this time Western medicine was more backward and barbaric, but they advanced with the times, but Chinese medicine, like Chinese science and technology, made slow progress......

It's not that this imperial doctor can't do it, this is the defect of Chinese medicine in this era.

So the imperial doctor said vaguely: "Taibao, maybe the mood is too agitated......"

Cai Bian wants to roll his eyes, he has been framed again and again, and the means of framing are so bad, can he not be agitated?

The imperial doctor said: "And Taibao is too tired, the liver is damaged, Taibao, you still need to rest, if you continue like this, it will be harmful to your body." ”

"Wang Qing, you have to listen to the words of the imperial doctor," Zhao Ji said.

"It's okay, it's just that the minister is angry with these people."

Where did the imperial doctor dare to listen to this, he immediately prescribed a prescription and left, Zhao Ji asked the ins and outs, and just now he heard the eunuch report that Wang Ju had fainted, and he was also frightened.

"Someone really assassinated Cheng Yi, but what can you do to assassinate Cheng Yi?" Zhao asked.

Who is Cheng Yi, in a few hundred years, as long as you know a little bit about history, who doesn't know?

Although Guan Jian's current Cheng Yi is a great Confucian, he is just a teacher, and his influence is not as good as Zhang Zai's. Just like Wen Yanbo, they hate Wang Ju so much, will they send someone to assassinate Zhang Zai?

Is your head broken?

Cai said with a cold face: "Your Majesty, it seems that there are witnesses, there is the location of the crime, and Cheng Yi often attacks the Taibao, and there is also a motive, the Taibao can't say clearly." ”

"A little case?"

"Pretty much. But in the small case, someone only knew where the birthmark of the Taibao was and the location of the wound on the abdomen, but he didn't know that there were still marks left by the wolf's claws when he was a teenager on his back, as well as the poisonous sores and scars in the south, so the Taibao would keep his innocence. However, now everything is in Luoyang. Although it cannot be said that the Taibao instructed this, the Taibao cannot make it clear. ”

"As for Wang Qing, is he going to send someone to assassinate Cheng Yi?"

is to assassinate, but also to assassinate Sima Guang, Fan Zuyu and other bigwigs, how much impact can Cheng Yi have?

"Your Majesty, the truth is like this, the question is how to discern the innocence of the Taibao?"

"Hehe, it's really going to do everything," Zhao Ji sneered, and said, "Order Luoyang officials." The case will be strictly investigated to the end. ”

…………

Zhang Ji summoned several main generals.

Wang Ju's proposal, Zhang Kai likes it more.

But the problem is that the time is too hasty, this is not like the battle of Pingxia City and the battle of Tiandu Mountain, they are all planned and then moved, and they have been planned for several years, so the three battles are decided, and even Xiao Pass has been taken.

In particular, Wang Ju and Zhang Qi are both the same kind of characters. It takes more time to be good at planning.

There's no way around it. He had no choice but to summon a few main generals, and everyone worked together.

After listening to him, several generals stared at a place on the map together, which was the southern gate of Lingzhou, located on the south side of the Yellow River and on the Huluchuan River. It is also an important granary of Western Xia, and it has a nice name - Mingsha City!

Yao Yu said: "Gong Zhang, it's best to ask Liu Zhizhou. ”

Because during the summer war, Liu Changzuo went north along the Hulu River, winning all the way. Captured Xiao Pass, Mingsha City, and came to Lingzhou City first, if it wasn't for Gao Zunyu, he almost took Lingzhou in one go.

In terms of familiarity with Mingsha City, Liu Changzuo is undoubtedly the most familiar.

"X has already written to General Liu."

This side is discussing, and at a very fast speed to discuss the specific plan for the use of troops, Wang Ju also wrote some approximate plans, but only approximately, the rest can only rely on the Jingyuan Road soldiers to play.

But there's also a plan for countermeasures.

Don't underestimate Liang Yikui, this person can quickly control Western Xia after the Great Liang clan and Liang Yi are buried, and he has his own strengths.

At present, Western Xia is very embarrassed.

A soldier is without a soldier, and wealth is without wealth.

So he secretly sent an envoy to Huangzhou and handed an extremely low-key letter to Aguli.

First of all, I told the story of the death of the lips and the cold teeth, once the Song Dynasty destroyed the Western Xia, you Tubo should not think about it, the Taizu of the Song Dynasty said a word to the envoy of the Southern Tang Dynasty, under the couch, how can you allow others to snore?

On the other hand, they sent envoys to Liao to ask for help.

The envoy to Liao has not returned, but the envoy to Tubo has returned, saying that Ali Gu has moved.

There are several reasons for this.

The first reason is that after the death of Dong Yu's parents, two wives were accepted by Ali Gu, that is, the system of accepting stepmarriage, one of which was a princess of Western Xia, and Ali Gu loved this wife very much.

But this reason is not the main one.

The second reason is that Wang Shao's expedition to the west made some of the Tibetan tribes in Huangzhou dissatisfied, and when supporting the Mu Zheng, Ali Gu and the Tubo brave general Qingyi Jiegui Zhang both fought with the Song army successively, and there were casualties among each other, and the two had some grudges with the Song Dynasty.

The third reason is the race of Aligu, he is a Uighur, if he is not a Uighur, he must be anti-Song, but the Uighurs, they will not have a feud with the Western Xia like the Tibetans, and without racial hatred, the ideas will be different.

That's the main reason.

Therefore, after receiving Liang Yiqi's letter, coupled with Liang Yikui's disregard for the previous damage to the Western Xia by Ali Gu (when Dong Yu was alive, Dong Yu cooperated with the Song Dynasty to fight against the Western Xia many times, and Ali Gu made many great achievements), his tone was low.

So Ali Gu seriously thought that if the Song Dynasty took Western Xia, whether it would make a move on Huangzhou was not necessarily.

At that time, the reason why the Song Dynasty acted against Xihe was that Mu Zheng was very close to Western Xia, and even caused a threat to the northern Shu of the Song Dynasty.

Otherwise, the Song Dynasty may not be able to make a move against Xihe.

But as long as the Song Dynasty takes Western Xia, unless Huangzhou Tubo is a good grandson, it will inevitably take action against Huangzhou Tubo.

The reason is simple, after taking Huangzhou, the Song Dynasty in the west has no enemies or strong hostile forces, and can rest assured in the northern frontier.

Could it be hoped that the Achai tribes (the general name of the scattered Tubo people on both sides of Qinghai Lake, but few in number) could pose a serious threat to the Song Dynasty?

I was impressed. I asked vaguely, how to cooperate?

Liang Yiqi sent another messenger back with a letter, let's work together to take Dingxi City.

Dingxi City is the West Envoy City, which has just changed its name.

Why can it be said that Dingxi City was taken, or the local Song army frontier defense, although Li Xian opened up Nanhuizhou. It seems that Dingxi City was moved to the rear, but because of the limited number of troops, there were not many forts built, and there were also not many garrisons.

This is still Wang Ju allocated some money to support Li Xian to build a fort and recruit new soldiers, otherwise the defense force will be weaker.

If the Western Xia gathered a large army and forcibly chiseled through Nanhuizhou, it would not be difficult to reach Dingxi City.

Of course. has become somewhat of a lonely force, but with Ali Bone's cooperation, it is different.

The Song Dynasty was forced to occupy Henan (east and south of the Yellow River), the southwest of the river was Tibetan, and the north was the Liangzhou region of Western Xia.

Because after the Xihe Battle was pacified, the Song Dynasty took the initiative to show favor to Dong Yu. Although Dong Yu has anger in his heart, he can ripen porridge with rice. Helpless, they later united for a time and repeatedly launched attacks on Western Xia.

In this friendly atmosphere, from the Niche Valley to the West Envoy City area, the Song Dynasty rarely had heavy defenses.

Finally, there are the Zhufan tribes of the Western Envoy City itself, and their relations with the Song Dynasty are not very friendly. Either close to Western Xia, or close to Tubo, with a "mass base".

As long as this strategy succeeds and the Song army in Lanzhou is instigated, there is a ninety percent chance that they will become the Zhuozhou officers and soldiers who were deeply trapped in the Liao border that year (after the defeat of the Gaoliang River of Song Taizong. The officers and soldiers of the Song Dynasty did not give up Zhuozhou, and then the front was recovered by the Liao State, so a lone army guarded the city of Zhuozhou, and was finally broken by the Liao State.

Then Lanzhou, the Niche Valley, the West Envoy City and the South Huizhou Prefecture all fell.

In fact, for Liang Yikui, no matter whether this battle is won or lost, it doesn't matter, as long as Ali Gu sends troops, he will be at odds with the Song Dynasty, then both sides will become enemies of the Song Dynasty, plus the containment of the Liao State in the north, Western Xia can survive this crisis safely.

But after this battle, Liang Yiqi did not say clearly how these places were distributed, but the more he did not say it clearly, the more excited Ali Gu became.

Because the strength of Western Xia is limited, at least for now, as long as this strategy is successful, then the Shrine Valley, Lanzhou and the Western Envoy City will become his pockets, as for Western Xia, I will reward you with Nanhui Prefecture.

Each has its own mind and means, and each has a ghostly fetus......

…………

Two guards carried a hemp bag into the Yanhe Temple.

The sack is the sack, there is still something squirming in Guan Jian, it seems to be a person.

The ministers are stupid together, what is Wang Ju going to do?

Wang Ju snorted, and the guards untied the sack, and there was really a person inside, some people knew it, and that was Xiao Cheng. Wang Ju didn't know him, he only dealt with Da Cheng, Xiao Cheng has been in Luoyang, and there is no chance to know each other at all.

The guards took off the cloth from Cheng Yi's mouth again, and untied the rope on his body.

Xiao Cheng was confused and confused, and looked around, but his head was definitely easy to call, and he immediately fell to the ground and said, "Your Majesty, the minister is wronged." ”

"I ask you, do you remember how you got here?"

"The minister was sleeping at home, and suddenly a gangster broke in and kidnapped the minister all the way, and the minister came here in a daze......" Xiao Cheng said, his face suddenly became ugly.

"You said that Wang Qing sent someone to assassinate you, and the reason why he kidnapped you was that it was the guards in Wang Qing's house who entered Luoyang, sneaked into your house at the third watch, and tied you into a bag while you were asleep, and escorted you all the way to the capital."

When Li Qingchen heard this, he was about to say that Wang Ju couldn't do this, but suddenly he also realized that something was wrong, and his body that had just taken half a step immediately retracted.

Wang Ju kidnapped a famous Confucian alive, of course it was wrong, but the drunkard didn't mean to drink, and it had nothing to do with kidnapping...... Zhao Ji said again: "You were tied up from Luoyang to the capital unconsciously, if Wang Qing intentionally wanted to murder you, would it be so difficult, and still allow you to escape and report to the official?" ”

I got to the heart of the question at once.

If Wen Yanbo wants to kill Wang Ju, or Wang Ju wants to kill Wen Yanbo, it will undoubtedly be very difficult.

Because their family was rich and wealthy, and they hired many guards, they could not pass this level.

However, if you want to kill Xiao Cheng, wouldn't it be too simple.

"I don't know."

"These are not my control, but some of your practices are a bit excessive. Even I can't stand it, maybe you are not convinced, saying that I am partial to Wang Qing, it doesn't matter, there is another example, Wang Zichuan went to the palace. ”

After a while, Wang Zichuan was brought in.

"Cheng Yi. Wang Qing's family has more than a dozen guards, his name is Wang Zichuan, his father's name is Yelong Basheng, since Wang Qing knew Huachi County, the family has followed Wang Qing, and he is the person Wang Qing can trust, but he is not the most outstanding guard in martial arts. So I asked him to make an example. Wang Zichuan, imagine the scene of Cheng Yi's murder that night. ”

"Whoa." Wang Zichuan replied.

The guard brought a Peach Creek sword, but don't take it seriously. The scabbard is real, but the sword is a wooden sword, not an iron sword.

"You are Cheng Yi?" Wang Zichuan asked first.

On that day, Cheng Xi replied unhappily: "So-and-so, who are you, so rude?" ”

But now Cheng Xi doesn't answer.

Wang Zichuan didn't care, and continued: "You are the muddy ball, that's good." I'll let you defile the Taibao every day! ”

After saying the previous word, the fake Peach Creek Sword has been set out. The tip of the sword was pointed at Cheng Yi's chest: "Cheng Yi, you are dead, so there is time to call for help?" ”

Cheng Yi was so angry that he vomited blood and shouted loudly: "Surrender, surrender." ”

Wang Ju walked out and said, "Let you prepare." If you can successfully call for help and attract several people to see you from the crossroads, someone will assassinate you. ”

With a wave of his hand, a eunuch brought a drawing, and there was no cross alley. But how wide and long the alley in Luoyang was, and where did the assassins meet, and the Luoyang government investigated it together, so they drew a line with white lime according to the data on the map, and the alley was inside the lime line, and the houses were outside the line.

The line was drawn, and in another larger alley of Cross Lane there were several pedestrians, not pedestrians, but eunuchs and guards instead of pedestrians, and they were walking about themselves.

Wang Zichuan said again: "You are Cheng Yi? ”

At this time, Cheng Yi couldn't call for help.

Wang Zichuan said again: "You are that muddy ball, that's good, I'll let you defile the Taibao every day!" He drew his sword.

It's time for Cheng Xi to call for help, and if he can't call for help, he has to run away, so that he can escape, so that the assassin is afraid, and he really evacuates.

Cheng Yi was prepared this time, as soon as Wang Zichuan finished speaking, before he could draw his sword, Cheng Yi turned around and prepared to escape, shouting for help in his mouth.

But after only calling for a save word, the tip of Wang Zichuan's sword had already pierced into his back chest, and he took the sword back and said, "You only called half a word for help, and you are already dead." ”

"No, Your Majesty, he's too close to the minister."

Wang Junu pouted, and Wang Zichuan stepped back.

In fact, when he was assassinated that day, Cheng Yi couldn't remember how far the assassin was from him, but Wang Zichuan was definitely farther away from him than the distance between the assassin and him, and he couldn't be farther.

Zhao Ji asked with a cold face: "This time it's almost there." ”

"It's almost ...... Much more. ”

Wang Zichuan said again: "You are the muddy ball, that's good, I'll let you defile the Taibao every day." ”

Before the word "Bao" was finished, Cheng Yi turned around and fled, shouting for help, but as soon as the word "life" was finished, Wang Zichuan's sword had already stabbed Cheng Yi in the back of the chest, and he turned around and left, and the eunuchs and guards who pretended to be pedestrians heard the word "help" and also stopped. ”

But Wang Zichuan's figure had already disappeared into the cross alley in front of him at the same time, and if there were houses separated by them, he was also successfully assassinated and escaped.

Wang Ju said: "Cheng Yi, if it weren't for the fact that I grew up in the northwest since I was a child, and in order to protect myself, I also practiced some martial arts, but I was a pure Wenchen, and I would have deceived you this time." But you are only a little good at scriptures, but you don't know martial arts. So this time, I was cleared again...... What's the name of that accomplice of yours? ”

What he meant was that Cheng Yi invited a big man to be an assassin, performed this good show, and then used it to frame Wang Ju.

"Wang Zi'an, you can really reverse black and white."

"Cheng Yi, at this point, you are still a thief shouting to catch a thief, is it interesting?" Wang Juyin asked.

Not to mention that Wang Ju seems that there is no need to deal with Cheng Yi, a "little person", it is necessary, and the three "assassinations" in the Yanhe Palace are also the best proof.

Even Li Qingchen believed that Cheng Yi had defiled Wang Ju...... seems to be a clever method, but it still allows Wang Ju to find a loophole.

He sighed slightly, if he was against Wang Ju, the book would be, and the two methods of spring would be too inferior. You are Wenchen after all, at least there is a little limit.

"You, you ......"

"Cheng Yi, it's really true, black is black, don't be. I heard that Fan Zuyu visited your private school that day. I believe you are not so bold, and the status of you and me is very different. There's no way I'm sending assassins against you, and you don't have the guts to defile me, who else is involved? Wang Ju said proudly, but it is true that at least for now, the status of the two is worlds apart.

Cheng Yi was so angry that his whole body trembled, and his face was full of fear.

At this time, he knew that he had fallen into the trick of the king.

But the problem is that I can't speak clearly with my whole body.

Even his thinking was misled by Wang Ju, yes. The difference in status between the two is too great, why did Wang Ju use such a ferocious scheme against himself?

But at this time, he didn't reflect on it, and one by one the ministers were nailed to the pillar of shame of the villain and traitorous ministers by their group of people, even including Wang Ju. If Wang Ju had no means, maybe a few years later, he would also become a ****.

So what should these people think?

Cheng Yi couldn't say clearly. But I felt very aggrieved and knelt in front of Zhao Ji. Wept loudly and said, "The minister is wronged, the minister is wronged." ”

Zhao Ji stepped down from the dragon chair and came to Cheng Yi and asked, "Cheng Yi, can the country have a small rule?" The small rulers I am referring to are not your rich squires and usurers, but ordinary people. Has the life of ordinary people changed for the better in recent years? ”

"In the following year, the southern three roads can pay part of the taxes to the imperial court, in fact, the imperial court has benefited now, Tengchong horse, Wumeng copper mine, Jiaozhi rice. and changes in Quang Nam West Road. At least Wang Qing opened up such a large territory for the imperial court, has it become a burden to the imperial court? ”

"Thanks to your skills, you forced Wang Qing overseas, and as a result, the imperial court suffered two defeats, but fortunately, I woke up in time and issued two edicts to recall Wang Qing, how is the war in the northwest? While the key is a great victory, has it dragged down the country and the people? ”

"Or let your group of rich and unkind squires do all kinds of evil, do whatever they want, and do not do anything lawless, or let the usury merchants force the people to ruin, and finally the Great Song Dynasty collapses and disintegrates in an instant, so as to satisfy your wishes?"

The last question was too damaging.

But with Wang Ju's actions in the past few years, he still said that Wang Ju was a **** traitor, and even said that if Wang Ju went to Shaanxi, Liao would send troops to scare the people, which was also too much.

Cheng Yi couldn't answer.

Cai Bian asked Su Zhe in a low voice: "Ziyou, does he have any accomplices?" ”

"I don't know," Xiao Su shook his head, but he already believed in his heart that there were accomplices, Xiao Cheng was not so bold, and when Xiao Cheng sued Wang Ju, Luoyang officials felt that the case was suspicious and did not make a comment, so Sima Guang and Fan Zuyu and several old ministers immediately came to exert pressure, and the Luoyang officials couldn't stand it and reported to the court for processing, which alarmed the court.

But will Sima Guang and Fan Zuyu be this kind of person?

He thought about it carefully, and could only sigh in his heart, Sima Gong, you are too prejudiced against Taibao.

Don't say anything else, just like treating his eldest brother Su Shi, after Wang Ju heard about it in the south, he wrote a long letter to him, your eldest brother's big mouth is really annoying, and he has to suffer a little.

But is it wrong?

Then, he gave himself a lot of money, and said, don't rush to give it to your eldest brother, after he has suffered a lot, he will repent, and the money will be used by him.

What a well-intentioned one.

The same is true in Zhongshu, where tax relaxation is necessary, and after the law change, the burden on the people is indeed increasing.

However, if they can pay taxes more than just give them relief, they have to find a way to live, so they use measures such as banking and house tax exemption to encourage the people to increase their industries, or allocate a large amount of money for the construction of roads and water conservancy, and teach the people to fish, instead of fishing, which may make some people lazy.

With such a mind and such good intentions, can Wang Jiefu do it, can Sima Jun really do it?

Zhao Ji paced a few steps and said: "Wang Qing grew up on the border, killed thieves since he was a child, like an iron man, from the northwest to the southern wilderness, and made shocking contributions to the Great Song Dynasty, but a few days ago, Shengsheng was stunned by your clown-like behavior, and the imperial doctor diagnosed and treated him, and said two words, one is overwork, and the other is emotional. Why is it overworked, it is caused by the trembling and conscientious management of state affairs, and it is really so easy for the Great Song Dynasty to get better? The reason why the mood is agitated is that your methods are too lowly. I don't understand, you are a master of Confucianism, but you really learn Confucianism, not a miscellaneous family and a vertical and horizontal family, but it is a miscellaneous family and a vertical and horizontal family, and it will not be like you. (To be continued.) )
