Chapter 28 You deserve the surname Liu(1/2)

 There was such a big incident in Lin'an City yesterday, and most of the people who are still receiving salaries in this court already know about it.

The steward of the Qin Mansion was disemboweled in the street by the living quarters, and the person who helped him was Yang Yizhong, the commander of the front department.

Zhang Taiwei was assassinated as soon as he returned to Lin'an. As the emperor's closest military commander, as the current number one person in the army of the Song Dynasty...

It is hard to say that anyone who dares to do such a thing in Lin'an does not have the shadow of the golden man.

The shadow of the golden man is the shadow of Prime Minister Qin.

If you look at it alone, it looks like Zhao Guan's family and Prime Minister Qin are playing tricks on each other.

Although Qin Hui felt wronged, he did not come out to explain.

Zhang Jun was indeed entrusted by him to go to that place, but as long as his mind was clearer, he would know that this matter had nothing to do with him.

If I really wanted Captain Zhang's head, I would definitely not resort to such methods as assassination.

If he really couldn't think clearly and involved himself in this matter...

That’s okay, there’s a dog for every owner, and a coward like Zhang Jun can’t make any big waves.

Besides, Lao Jiu is already concerned about the military power of several generals. After the peace negotiation is over, he will only have the title of a lieutenant. Whether it is right or wrong is not that important.

Just look at what the emperor did and that'll be fine.

It’s just that murderous Xin Ciying...

This was the only thing that Qin Hui couldn't understand. The living room was too close to the emperor, so he didn't do anything in this position to avoid causing Lao Jiu's displeasure.

But I have never provoked that person, so how dare he offend me?

What does Laojiu mean after this?

Yesterday in the court, he was beaten by Yue Yun because of Qin Xi, and he had just eaten the emperor's soft nails.

The emperor's family affairs are state affairs, and the family affairs of his Prime Minister Qin are family affairs.

Therefore, Prime Minister Qin does not want to speak today.

But he believes that there will be many people who can help him say what he wants to say.

As for Zhang Jun, he still didn't know that the emperor wanted to recruit his own soldiers.

So, among the great generals of the Song Dynasty, except for Qin Hui, who is willing to stand by his side, which one of the others is not thinking about continuing the Northern Expedition?

Therefore, Zhang Taiwei believed that he needed Qin Hui as much as Qin Hui needed him. The two were in a cooperative relationship, and Qin Hui had no reason to kill him.

Qin Hui doesn't want to kill himself, that means the Jin people don't want to kill themselves.

In addition to the gifts sent to the palace yesterday... He sent people to keep an eye on the entrance to the imperial city, but did not see any returned.

Then you know that officials still think of themselves, and the phrase "kill someone to pay for your life" is really just a drunken remark casually.

Neither the emperor nor Qin Hui wanted to kill themselves, it was enough to know this.

Because others don’t have that ability.

When Captain Zhang, who was at the head of the queue in green robes, greeted each other in front of the Daqing Palace, Prime Minister Qin, who was at the head of the queue in scarlet robes.

It actually surprised many ministers who were prepared to see the Song Dynasty's first civil servant and the first military general fall out.

Could it be that there is another hidden story behind this matter?

In any case, in the morning today, everyone knows that there will be a lot of things to hear today, and there may be a lot of errands that will be assigned.

After the emperor appeared in front of everyone in high spirits, today's morning court officially began.

"My dear friends, what do you have to say today?"

Liu Bang had long been prepared for Qin Hui to cry, but what he didn't expect was that Qin Hui looked calm and someone stood up from behind Zhang Jun:

"Yesterday, at the busy street of Lin'an Prefecture, I heard that Ambassador Yang and the resident Xin Ciying killed someone in the street. I wonder what crime that person committed, so that they took his life without questioning?



"If he has committed a heinous crime, but he has neither weapons nor armor, why don't you two take him to Dali Temple or the Ministry of Punishment?"

"If he is not guilty, why would you two let a hundred people die in vain like this?"

Although everyone is ready, others will be the one to take the stand for Prime Minister Qin.

But even Qin Hui himself did not expect that he would be the first to stand up and say this.

Seeing this man paying his name, Prime Minister Qin felt extremely happy.

Lao Jiu, take a good look!

Zhang Jun and he, who were the kings of Qin back then, are all on my side!

You, do you still have your people?

Yang Yizhong's expression remained as usual, while Xin Ciying's heart beat rapidly while writing down documents... If someone else died, Master Xin might have sold the emperor.

But it was the housekeeper of the Qin family who died. Mr. Xin wished that Prime Minister Qin would retire as soon as possible and fall out with the official family directly.

Liu Bang quietly glanced at the paper on the table. It was the official position and name that he asked Xin Ciying to write down because he was not clear in his mind.

Although the words are a little different from what I know, I can still guess the meaning.

The person who came out to speak was the Duke of Yong. Three years ago, because Li Qiong rebelled against the Song Dynasty, he took 40,000 of his people to the north and sent them to the puppet Qi Dynasty. Last year, he was resurrected because of Wanyan Wushu's invasion of the south.

Liu Guangshi.

This person had already finished building his own soldiers before he could take action.

But he was used again, and Liu Bang could understand it.

Forty thousand people ran to the other side. This old boy might meet old acquaintances one day, and he might be able to persuade a few of them to come back.

You kid, you have to be the first, right?

Liu Bang nodded and said:

"I went out of the palace the night before yesterday and was almost killed by a thief near the Qiantang Gate."

As soon as these words came out, a bunch of people immediately stood up:

"Is it okay with the official family?"

"Who is that thief? Can he be captured?"

"Yang Yizhong! How do you protect the Diguan family?"

"If the Qiantang Gate is not closed at night, I have long said that it will cause trouble!"

"Officials should take care of their bodies and should not rush out of the palace!"

……

Anyway, everything was said, Qin Hui and Zhang Jun were both surprised and confused.

Liu Guangshi looked at Prime Minister Qin subconsciously: Do you know this?

Liu Bang clapped his hands to signal everyone to quiet down, and then continued:

"We happened to meet each other yesterday and ordered the two of them to take the life of the thief. In this case, do we still need to inform Dali Temple in advance?"

Liu Guangshi didn't expect that there was such an inside story. As the minister who first came to Zhao Gou's side, he knew the emperor's courage.

He almost hurt the emperor's life, let alone a steward of the Qin Mansion, even he had to pay for it with his head.

On the contrary, Prime Minister Qin heard this and while secretly scolding Qin Liu, he became somewhat sober:

No wonder the officials are so aloof from me, the original reason is here!

Thinking of this, I hurriedly stood up and admitted my mistake:

"The official family, that slave dog is so courageous, I didn't check for a while, and actually attracted such a thief into the government, I hope the official family will forgive me, forgive me!"

"Hey," Liu Bang waved his hand magnanimously, "Of course I know Aiqing's loyalty. This matter must have nothing to do with you, otherwise I wouldn't want that person's life."

That's what he said, but Qin Hui still smelled the threat in it.

Prime Minister Qin is feeling miserable!

I didn’t do anything and yet I was blamed by Lao Jiu!

Fortunately, the emperor did not dwell too much on this matter, but instead issued his first order:

"The official duties of Lin'an Prefecture are indiscriminate, and they are driven by the slaves of the same family. The grandson of Lin'an Prefecture should not be an official. If he wants to please Qin Aiqing so much, Prime Minister Qin will give me a face and accept him to work in your house.

Just be a slave."

This edict was extremely absurd, but no one dared to oppose it.

No one even made any comments.

Knowing how much the emperor cherished his life, I may have been holding back a lot of anger after saying this.

He is just a governor of Lin'an, so he will be punished.

Qin Hui hesitated for a moment and finally agreed.

"As for the candidate for Lin'an Prefecture, I think Xin Ciying is good. What do you think?"
