Chapter 95: The Need for a Divine Decree
Yelulei is a royal family, and he can be regarded as the number one person in Liao, how can he be Yelulei's boss; If it weren't for the fact that Master Tianxin had sent gold and silver utensils in advance, indicating his attitude of hoping that Yang Zhi would leave, Yang Zhi would even directly refuse Xiao Zhi's persuasion, he was complaining about the army, what would he do in a different place.
Xiao Lili shook his head and said: "I know your difficulties, but you have made military achievements in Xianzhou, but you can no longer accommodate it, after getting that batch of grain, the imperial court will definitely make other arrangements, I think Youzhou is a good place." As for Yelulei, he lost a large amount of supplies when he retreated from Baosai Town, and he belonged to the general of the defeated army, and the north and south houses criticized a lot, and the responsibility cannot be shirked; besides, Yelulei admires you quite a lot, and will not have any objections. ”
Yang Zhi still didn't agree, Yelulei is a hero, maybe he doesn't care about power, but those people in the Yelu family and the Khitan nobles don't care?
But Xiao Lili's attitude was very resolute, and he told Yang Zhi in the end that Ye Lu Lei was sick, and he didn't know when he would get better, and even assisting Yang Zhi was just talking, and the current arrangement was to earn some official positions and resumes for Ye Lu Lei. Yang Zhi understands that Xiao Lila is the number one warrior in Daliao, and he can talk to himself bitterly like this, which has already given him enough face, and he would have been mad for another person, and he must accept it when he sees it: "Then you need the court to give a holy decree." ”
Xiao Lira is not a reckless person, he knows that what Yang Zhi said is the key, ordinary people serve in the Southern Court, and there will be a holy decree above the fifth grade, Yang Zhi's level is not enough, but Yang Zhi is currently an official appointed by the imperial court, and is under the jurisdiction of the privy envoy of the Northern Court, if there is only an appointment of the Southern Court, it is likely to be involved in a dispute later. Xiao Weili shook his head and said: "I will ask the emperor to decree that you should first handle the affairs of the resentful army in Youzhou, Zong Ze, the envoy from the Song Dynasty, is a difficult person to deal with." ”
Zong Ze, Yang Zhi could only smile bitterly, this person is not easy to deal with, Zong Ze is an outlier in the Great Song Dynasty. At the age of 17, Zong Ze wandered the rivers and lakes, traveled all over the world, and became one of the young masters of the rivers and lakes with the reputation of the shadowless sword; at the age of 33, Zong Ze participated in the imperial examination for the first time, and criticized the imperial court for believing in Wu Chuhou's false accusations and banished Cai Qu during the palace examination, believing that "the disaster of the friends began here", so he failed to be at the top of the list, and entered the official career with "giving the same jinshi background", and his official position has not been high, but no one dares to deny his ability.
After Xiao Lili finished talking about his affairs, he left, leaving Ye Lulei's address in Youzhou; Yang Zhi thought about it for a while and decided that he didn't have to worry about anything for the time being, just waiting for news from the imperial court. The next day, Yang Zhi went to visit Fu Zun, the secretary of the household department, Yang Zhi knew that Fu Zun liked money, so he picked out a gold bottle from the box given by Master Tianxin, wrapped it in silk, and bought a beautiful wooden box on the street as a gift.
When Yang Zhi arrived at Fu Zun's mansion, he learned that Fu Zun was at home, handed over a gift and reported his name, and was immediately invited into the mansion; Fu Zun's mansion was not big, only about the size of Cai Jing's small garden in Bianliang City, and it was well decorated, with pavilions and pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, and a bit of Jiangnan color. Walking through the corridor, Yang Zhi saw Fu Zun in the living room, Fu Zun was the head of the household department, and his official position was much higher than Yang Zhi, Yang Zhi hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "Meet your lord." ”
Fu Zun hurriedly helped Yang Zhi up, and said with a smile: "Yang Zhi is polite, you and I are not outsiders, so there is no need to be so polite." ”
Fu Zun didn't care in his mouth, he was still quite satisfied in his heart, the Liao State was established by force, Fu Zun was a Han Chinese, and a group of Khitan generals saw Fu Zun, and there was always a trace of contempt in their eyes, and they didn't even think about it, Yang Zhi's style was still relatively thoughtful, especially the gifts, which showed that Yang Zhi was not as proud as the Khitan people said. The two guests sat down, and Fu Zun said in embarrassment: "I know that you have a tight schedule, but it is entrusted by Master Tianxin, so please come to meet and let Buddha Nanda replace you, it is an order of the Privy Council, and I want to talk about peace, I am worried that you will cause trouble in Xianzhou, but I didn't expect you to come to Zhongjing, and you will kill Tart Buye, which is also the will of God." ”
Only then did I know that Fu Zun wanted to see him, but he was actually entrusted by Master Tianxin to explain the reason for letting Yang Zhi leave the resentful army, the imperial court was not ready to fight with the Jin people, so he didn't want to anger the Jin people, the more effective Yang Zhi's work was, the more Ye Luchun was worried about this matter, plus Xiao Fengxian had an opinion on Yang Zhi, Master Tianxin had to agree.
Yang Zhi understood, after all, he was an outsider, the Khitans still wanted to play by themselves, Fu Zun didn't say it, it was Master Tianxin who also felt that after all, he was not dismissed, if something happened in Xianzhou, he could be notified to go back with an order; Yang Zhi put on a teachable appearance and said to Fu Zun: "Master Fu, Master Tianxin is too worried, I went to Youzhou to do things for the resentful army, and I still know this matter clearly." ”
Fu Zun smiled and said, "Yang Zhi, don't worry, this favor, Master Tianxin will definitely remember." ”
The guest and the host talked very happily, sat for a while, Yang Zhi got up to say goodbye, at this time Fu Zuncai's face flashed a trace of melancholy and said: "Recently, there have been a lot of strange things in Zhongjing, the most bizarre of which is the murder case, there are eleven in a row, day and night, all irrelevant people were killed, and the soldiers who patrolled the streets arrived, and there were no clues at all. ”
Yang Zhi was stunned, maybe this is Fu Zun's reason for finding himself, as the capital of Daliao, such a homicide case is indeed disturbing the people's hearts, but the water in Zhongjing is too muddy, Xiao Lili didn't mention that it is not a matter in Xiao Lili's eyes, Yang Zhi smiled and said: "Thank you for reminding me, I will be careful." ”
Fu Zun smiled helplessly, Fu Zun only killed seven people when Yang Zhi came, and four more have died in the past few days; Yang Zhi will not know what he means, but if he doesn't answer his own words, Fu Zun has no choice, so he can't speak for Dading Mansion and the Criminal Department. The idea of the Dading Mansion and the Criminal Department is very simple, that is, to urge their subordinates to solve the case, and let everyone see that they have gone all out and fulfilled their duties.
In the end, even if the case cannot be solved, it is a big deal for the Dading Government to hand over a murderer, or to take a person who is in charge of the case to hand over the errand; as for asking the two departments to say that they can't ask for help, it is certainly impossible. There have been many cases that can't be solved in recent years, and the officials of the two yamen have been reprimanded by the imperial court for a few words, and if they say that they can't do it in black and white, they may not have solved the case, and many officials will be dismissed.
