Chapter 226 Civil officials, military generals, foreign relatives

The court did not calm down because of Zhao Jin's confinement in Baosheng Palace.

On the contrary, things became more and more chaotic and turbulent. At this time, nine prime ministers in the court had entered the palace and met in Yanhe Hall. Outside were the servants they brought, thousands of people, and they cooperated with the imperial guards to protect the palace gates everywhere. The city was also martial law, and the city of Bianliang never sleeps again encountered a rare curfew. The downtown city of the city was flooded with imperial guards, and the vicious soldiers ordered the people to go home, and even the time to pack things was given to the vendors for a short time.

After a while, on the quiet street, you can see a lot of food, jewelry, and the ground that were left untied. Shoes, broken bowls, chopsticks, and residual food were on the ground.

An elderly man whispered: "Since the alliance of Chanyuan, there has been no such prohibition. This is a sign of chaos!"

In Yanhe Palace, Song Renzong was wearing bright yellow casual clothes and had no time to wear ornaments. He only had a simple black rhinoceros horn belt wrapped around his waist, and there was no hairpin on his head. He just swallowed it whole with a wingless black gauze hat. Many of his hair were exposed. The dignified lord of a country showed a look of confusion and panic.

Several prime ministers in the palace were not as good as that, all wearing casual clothes, and Lu Yijian was still considerate, and they were covered with an official robe. Wang Deyong, deputy envoy of Privy Councilor, was even wearing armor. As he walked, there was a sound of jingling in his ears, and a breath of golden swords and iron horses rippled in the air. He held a long sword at his waist and turned his head to look outside the hall from time to time, showing a look of defense.

At this moment, a sound of footsteps sounded, including Song Renzong, involuntarily looking at the gate of the hall. He saw a man coming in from outside, wearing a military uniform, wearing a leather belt, a helmet, a crown and armor, and no weapons on his hands and bodies. He thought he had handed it to Ban Zhi, the guard at the gate, at the door.

This general is not tall and of medium figure, but also strong. When he walked in, he was fifteen or sixteen steps away from Song Renzong, and he saluted to Song Renzong. "I am the Minister of the Ministry of the Palace, and I will pay my respects to the official family!"

"Mr. Please come up. What's the situation outside?" Song Renzong quickly supported himself and asked anxiously.

Although the couple did not ask questions, they looked at their expressions and thought that what they thought was just what Song Renzong asked.

Li Yonghe straightened his back, with a little bitterness and helplessness on his dark face, and said, "The fire is nothing. It has been saved. It just burned two lofts and three bungalows, it is..."

"What's the matter? But the person didn't catch it?" Lu Yijian asked a step forward in the battle.

Waiting by the side of Emperor Renzong of Song, Yan Wenying looked down and looked down. He couldn't help but change his face slightly and he secretly raised his ears. However, all the prime ministers looked at Li Yonghe and waited for his reply, but no one noticed his strangeness.

Li Yong and Song Renzong bowed again. "I am incompetent and escaped for the demon! However, after inquiry, it was confirmed that the demon was wearing eunuch's clothes. I just don't know if it was a demon who mingled into the palace as a central official, or a demon who pretended to be a central official!"

When Song Renzong heard this, his face changed drastically, and he was anxious and angry. These two speculations were very different. The former means that there may be believers of the Maitreya Cult among the eunuchs. If there are those who are brave and suddenly draw their swords in the palace to assassinate Wang Liao, what should we do? Song Renzong didn't want to live in a worried life. Is this the emperor? It's even more painful than the death row prisoner in the Heavenly Prison.

At least the death row prisoner knows when he will die. Although he will be frightened before he dies, he can take care of it with a little peace of mind. What about Song Renzong? Maybe he will be poisoned if he eats a bite of rice, or maybe there will be hidden arrows shooting on the road.

For a king like Song Renzong, who was not determined in his mind, this was even more terrifying than death.

Cai Qi, the deputy governor, was angry and bowed to Song Renzong: "Officials, this matter must be thoroughly investigated!"

Song Shou, deputy envoy of the Privy Council, was also furious and said, "The official must investigate thoroughly!"

After a pause, Song Shou glanced at Wang De and snorted coldly: "This matter cannot be investigated by the imperial guards!"

Wang De's expression changed slightly. It must be seen that he was a warrior and could be the official position of the Privy Councilor Tongzhi. He still had a certain sense of mind. He heard Song Shou's subtle intention, and clearly suspected that the Imperial Guard colluded with outsiders! He was ashamed and angry as he was, but he was very angry on weekdays and did not dare to make an attack. He just pinched the handle of the knife on his waist and made a slight squeaking sound.

Li Yonghe's face was not as good as that, and his originally dark face turned even more purple at this moment.

Although one person is his nominal immediate boss, and the other is Du Yuhou, who is less than ten thousand people in the front office of the palace, Li Yonghe, the uncle of the country, but Song Shou is the youngest among the nine priests, and he is only forty-five years old this year!

As the saying goes, the thirty-year-old famous scholars and the fifty-year-old Jinshi. During the imperial examination, it was amazing to pass the Jinshi at the age of fifty, not to mention that he had already served as prime minister at the age of forty, and was the deputy envoy of the Privy Council.

This inevitably makes Song Shou a little arrogant, especially when dealing with military officers and relatives of the outside world, Song Shou seems even more unscrupulous. Because when people know this outside, there will be no scholar-officials saying that Song Shou is domineering, but that he is not afraid of power. This is also the helplessness of the Song Dynasty's relatives and generals. The mountain of scholar-officials is too big!

Song Shou could only hear the words bluntly: "Don't say whether the Maitreya Cult demon climbed over the wall and entered the palace, just setting a fire, missing several attics. After the bungalow, the imperial guards in the front office discovered that with such ability, I think the imperial guards need to be rectified! Maybe there are despicable people in this imperial guards who were bribed money by the Maitreya Cult demons to protect their umbrella!"

Li Yonghe was furious and could no longer contain his anger. He stared at Song Shou with gritted teeth and said, "That loft and bungalows were all built by my Song Dynasty. They were all made of wood, not like this year's bricks and wood. In addition, the strong winds tonight, the wind helped the fire. How could it be that it would not burn a raging fire? The front office of my palace has tried its best to put out the fire, burning eleven people to death for this, and nearly a hundred burns! Why not do your best?"

"This is a must!" Although Song Shou was gentle and kind, he was not scared at all when facing Li Yong and the general. Instead, he glared at the top and sneered: "The ancients said that he would be brave after knowing shame. If Fei Er and others were dereliction of duty, how could he have been like this? If he had not dereliction of duty, how could he have been so desperate? It must be because you are afraid that the court would find out that it would be able to pay for the credit tonight!"

When it comes to talking, how could Li Yong and this general be Song Shou's opponent? Li Yonghe's face became more and more ugly. If Song Renzong and several prime ministers were not here, Li Yonghe might have drawn his sword and chopped Song Shou.

Seeing that Li Yonghe couldn't speak, Song Shou felt very proud and said disdainfully: "What? Did you tell me the truth? A warrior is vulgar!"

Song Renzong was also a little overwhelmed. He was about to speak, but suddenly heard a "stern" sound, but Li Yonghe pulled out the long knife around Wang Deyong's waist.

Song Shou was so scared that he was shocked. However, although this guy was poisonous, he was still somewhat arrogant. Although he looked timid, Song Shou had no duty to retreat. He gritted his teeth and said, "Do you dare to kill someone in Yanhe Palace?"

Not that you actually wanted to kill someone in front of the emperor, but you just asked if you dare to kill someone? You are not afraid of arousing Li Yonghe's anger at all and making things out of control.

A flash of disappointment flashed in Li Yonghe's eyes, and he knelt down on one knee, dragging a long knife with both hands. He said loudly: "I wish to die and express my innocence!"

Seeing this, Song Renzong jumped into his throat and then let it go a little. He raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead. He smiled bitterly and said, "Everyone is the same as the ministers, why should he do this?"

After a pause, Song Renzong said, "Get up, I believe you have never colluded with the Maitreya Sect!"

After hearing this, Li Yonghe's kneeling figure couldn't help but sway, and a look of loss appeared on his firm face. Although what Song Renzong said was nice, he actually meant that I believed in you, but I couldn't say anything about the people below you.

The Privy Councilor Wang Sui was a good man. Seeing that the matter was too stiff, he hurried out to ease the atmosphere. "As soon as the official family caught fire, the uncle of the country ran around to deal with the firefighting, catching demons, and martial law in the country. I think it was too tired. Please let the official family rest in the side hall!"

Song Renzong also understood it. Wang Sui asked Li Yonghe and Song Shou to separate, so that he would not cause any trouble when the time comes, that would be trouble.

But don’t think that Wang Sui is a good person. Wang Sui was still standing on the side of the scholars and officials. Song Shou and Li Yonghe had a conflict, but the result was that Song Shou continued to stay in Yanhe Hall to discuss matters. Li Yonghe ran to the side hall to rest, but in fact, it was to avoid Song Shou. Which of the two is more important, there is no need to say anything.

Li Yonghe naturally knew, and he didn't want to leave like this. When he saw Song Shou in the future, did Li Yonghe raise his head? At that moment, Li Yonghe returned the long sword to Wang Deyong and stood up. He glared at Song Shou with hatred and said solemnly to Song Renzong: "Official family, please report something else! Go to the side palace to rest!"

After all, it was his uncle. Song Renzong hesitated for a while, and finally nodded and agreed, saying, "Don't force it too hard. After saying this, go and rest to avoid getting tired of your body!"

Song Shou, Wang Sui and others were a little dissatisfied, and it was not easy to cause trouble.

After Li Yong and thanked Emperor Renzong of Song, he paused and then said, "There are three strange things in this fire! First, the arsonist did not catch it, but obtained the token of Maitreya religion, which seemed to be the cause of Maitreya religion. Just think about it carefully, since the people of Maitreya religion can escape, why did they leave the token?"

Yan Wenying was afraid that others would find the flaws, so he couldn't help but defend himself: "I think it was a mess."

Li Yonghe sneered and retorted: "Yan Du knows that it's too naive? The Maitreya Cult began to rebel secretly since the Southern and Northern Dynasties. How could such a cult cultivate such a helpless moment? It actually left a token in chaos!"

Song Renzong and the ascended prime minister couldn't help but nod. Although Li Yonghe was both a relative of the foreigners and a military man, he was looked down upon by scholars and officials, his words did make sense.

Yan Wenying was very anxious, but he couldn't speak anymore. Otherwise, he would be suspicious. Wouldn't he not tell anyone? He had to be nervous and wink at the other side, Lu Yijian, who looked like an old god, looked desperately.
