Peerless Pirates

If you don't count the complicated etiquette, Cheng Xuanshi is a good job. They accompany him to eat, drink and play with him. When Tang Zhengsu and Xue Qimeng came to Daqi, they still abided by the etiquette so as not to leave anything to say, but in front of Song Zheng , the two of them are relatively relaxed. After all, they have been getting along day and night during these days and have become very familiar with each other. In addition, everyone has a romantic literary atmosphere, and they are all top talents, and they are constantly witty when talking. , far from ordinary chatting and spanking.

Tang and Xue were deeply moved by the scenery of Jiangning City, especially the Jiangnan women who were very different from Shu people. Tang Zhengsu is a sultry person who doesn't know how to say anything about flower wine, but looking at his expression, he is also yearning for it.

Coming to his own territory, Song Zheng also wanted to treat him well as a friend. Song Zheng immediately agreed that as soon as the negotiation was over, he would entertain guests at the famous Yuxiang Building, and said that he would treat Jiangning's most popular guests A girl called him, and Song Zheng was not bragging. With Song Xiaolang's reputation as a master of both civil and military skills, the girls would rush to serve him without even having to spend any money.

The two people's eyes naturally lit up after hearing this. It was not a glorious thing for the Shu envoy to drink flower wine, but they were not worried. If Song Zheng couldn't even handle this matter, it would be in vain. Besides, Han Kui, who was in charge of guarding the post house, also called Song Zheng brothers.

As he had made an appointment with the emperor to report what he saw and heard in Shu personally after the court meeting, Song Zheng did not delay for too long. Just after Shen Shi in the afternoon, Song Zheng bid farewell to Tang and Xue. b Time Travel Novel: b

As soon as he arrived at the door of the post house, Han Kui called Song Zheng aside and whispered: "Xiao Lang, today Wang Zhaogeng, the imperial censor, wrote a letter to vindicate my grandfather, but was rejected by the emperor. What do you think is going on?" What’s going on!”

Han Kui is also a well-known figure. He usually keeps his emotions and angers secret, but at this time he is quite anxious. After all, this is a major event for the Han family.

"What, this happened?" Song Zheng was surprised.

"That's right, Xiaolang. Is the Holy Will unwilling to rehabilitate my grandfather?"

Song Zheng thought for a moment and shook his head: "That shouldn't be the case. In order to rehabilitate the ancestors, we can win over people's hearts. The Holy Lord is about to rule, so it should be the right time to act. Otherwise, I wouldn't have told you the reason two days ago. Those words."

"But what's going on?"

Song Zheng pondered for a moment: "I'm afraid there is something fishy. Oh, please tell me the details of today's court meeting."

"I'm not sure." Han Kui shook his head and said, "I just heard that Wang Zhaogeng reported this matter, and the emperor asked the courtiers for their opinions. Some of the ministers entrusted them, some asked for stability, and some even suggested adjourning the matter. Anyway, other people proposed to rehabilitate my grandfather immediately."

At this point, Han Kui sighed: "Xiao Lang, to tell you the truth, after Pang Hui's death, I asked the Duke of Guo and the big men of the court for this matter. The Duke of Guo and several elders expressed sympathy for Han. Some even hinted that when the time comes, they will speak for our Han family, but they didn't expect that now that the time has come, they have all become cowards."

Although Song Zheng vaguely guessed what was going on, he did not personally witness today's court meeting, so he could not draw any conclusions. He could only comfort him: "Maybe the Holy One saw that all the elders were avoiding this matter, so he did not make any premature judgments. After all, the Holy One is not involved." When you are in charge of the government, you must not only respect the courtiers, but also consider the Queen Mother’s wishes for some matters.”

"That should be the case." Han Kui sighed, feeling very lonely.

Seeing Han Kui's behavior, Song Zheng said: "You have been imprisoned for a long time. You should also know that the Holy One means to rehabilitate the ancestors. There is no need to worry. The Holy One has summoned me to meet today. When the time comes, I will speak for Brother Han and try to do it as soon as possible." Implement this."

"Then there's Lao Xiaolang." Han Kui saluted Song Zheng.

Song Zheng patted his shoulder: "Ling Zu's matter is of great importance. Once it is found out, although the people will be happy, there will be some resistance. After all, this is an unjust case. Jiang Kui alone cannot afford to do this. The big incumbent will definitely depose some people when the time comes."

Han Kui nodded. Song Zheng's words were not clear, but Han Kui knew very well that when Han Zhong was knocked down, some people were implicated, and at the same time some people were promoted. These people benefited from Han Zhong's case, and naturally they did not want to Ten years have passed since Han Zhong was rehabilitated. Some of these people have moved to higher positions, while others were captured in the empty wages case earlier this year.

In any case, for a dynasty, ten years can be said to be a time of great changes. It will not be so easy to investigate the old cases ten years ago.

When Song Zheng returned to the palace, it was already close to Youshi. When he learned that the emperor had gone to the Queen Mother Palace, Song Zheng had to wait.

At this time, in the Queen Mother's Palace, Pang Ying was no longer obsessed with the matter of courtship. Huang Jiao had already made her attitude clear. Pang Ying's attempts to persuade her were all refuted by Huang Jiao. Naturally, she would not bring trouble to herself and quickly moved to another topic. Question.b Time travel novel:b

"After my mother, the Shu envoys sent Jiang Kui's body back. There were rumors in the court that when Shu Pass was defeated, Jiang Kui used his position as the deputy commander of the Imperial City Department to reveal the news about our army to Shu. Today there are The censor proposed to review the Han Zhong case and ask the queen mother for an idea on how to deal with it." Huang Jiao glanced at her son and pondered. She was indeed hesitating. When Han Zhong was imprisoned, it was not so much the defeat of Shuguan. It would be worse to say that Han Zhong blocked the little emperor's way.

In the palace coup more than ten years ago, the palace caught fire, Qi Gaozong died, and Prince Pang Yan was burned to death. Only then did Pang Ying ascend the throne. Afterwards, Han Zhong insisted on a thorough investigation of major cases in the palace, which caused trouble. Upper body, everyone worked together to take him to prison.

Because they were afraid of Han Zhong's reputation and Han Zhong's son-in-law Yang Zhen still controlled the city guards at that time, Prince Pang Hui, Huang Yuandu, Huang Jiao and others did not dare to kill Han Zhong directly until Han Zhong died of illness in prison. , this matter still has not been settled, but because Han Zhong died and Yang Zhen was more obedient, the matter was dropped.

But what people didn't expect was that Han Zhong's prestige was so high. Even today, his reputation still remains high. The legendary stories about Han Zhong are the favorite stories of storytellers and the favorite things of the common people. .

There is no right or wrong in political affairs. It only depends on whether it is beneficial or not. It only depends on whether it is successful or not. The suppression of Han Zhong back then was to reduce the resistance to Pang Ying's ascension to the throne and eliminate the old forces. Today's rehabilitating Han Zhong is to make Pang Ying Ying can win over people's hearts and raise his reputation, and Han Zhong's unjust accusation and his vindication are all valuable to the royal family.

This matter sounds very ironic, but it is indeed the case. If Han Zhongquan knew better, he would probably say: "Thunder and rain are all your kindness."

Compared with any major unjust case in history, the occurrence and vindication of unjust cases are not simple. Unjust cases occur because the victims get in the way; the vindication of unjust cases requires those in power to "rectify chaos" and win people's hearts at the same time. Even if it continues to this day, Even the dynasty cannot escape this law. If you don’t believe it, you can take a look at the general who stood up with his sword and the man known as “Khrushchev sleeping beside us.”

Huang Jiao is a smart person and knows that her son needs to vindicate Han Zhong, but she still needs to make some things clear.

"Since some people say that Han Zhong was unjustly accused, it is necessary to investigate. However, the emperor must be careful not to involve too many people. Be careful that it will be difficult to deal with in the end."

The warning was obvious in Huang Zhong's words. Pang Ying hesitated for a moment and then said: "Someone has to come out to fight this. I'm afraid Jiang Kui alone is not enough." Pang Ying also had to make his words clear first, lest he would be criticized. It started in an anticlimax and ended in a tailspin, but instead of being received by people, it was criticized by others.

Huang Jiao snorted softly: "Jiang Kui was the deputy commander of the Imperial City Department back then, and had the power to spy on secrets. If you insist on being responsible, the person who shrouded the body in horse leather in Xijing is very important. Only you can do it." This determination.”

Pang Ying frowned, and after a long while he raised his hand and said: "Ying'er obeys the mother's instructions." Huang Jiao meant that if Pang Ying insisted on starting a war, then let Prince Pang Hui, who died in Xijing, come out to take the blame. After all, Pang Hui once Jiang Kui, who also served as the Commander-in-Chief of the Imperial City, said that he was Pang Hui's subordinate back then.

Pang Hui died in the war for his country and was greatly honored. It had only been half a year, and the emperor would naturally not do anything to slap him in the face.

Seeing Pang Ying give in, Huang Jiao said again: "Some things need to be carefully thought about. There was a fire in the palace, the prince suffered misfortune, and all the ministers supported you to ascend the throne. However, you were only five years old at that time. The master was weak and the ministers were strong. We, mother and son, After more than ten years of hard work, although life is getting better now, you should still understand the principle of being prepared for danger in times of peace."

Having said this, Huang Jiao coughed a few times and became a little depressed. The maid next to her quickly brought tea again. This time, Pang Ying stepped forward first, took the tea, and served Huang Jiao to drink it with her own hands.

"As a master, you should be careful in what you say, listen carefully, and act carefully. You have done quite well in the past two years, but you have to think more and carefully consider the pros and cons when encountering problems. Although I do not want you to be ruthless and mean. You are ungrateful, but with such a big country in your hands, you can't act on your own initiative. You must grasp the propriety of doing things." Although it was a sermon, Huang Jiao's tone was very soft, and it also made Pang Ying feel a trace of the warmth of the past.

"Whenever something happens, always discuss it with the ministers in the court. The old man is mature and prudent. He has protected you with all his heart in the past six months. You can see it. As for your grandfather, although he has more power, he has been the prime minister for so many years. , is quite experienced in handling government affairs. Others, such as Ji Can, Xu Yinshun, Dong Lancheng and others, have also been in charge of government affairs for many years. Please listen to their opinions more."

Huang Jiao spoke with sincerity and sincerity, so Pang Ying naturally nodded her head.

After talking for such a long time, Huang Jiao got tired, and finally said in a waning tone: "Hey, you are old too. Next year, you will officially take charge. In half a year, I will completely let go. I will try my best to deal with the future." I won’t care, just make up your own mind.”

"Thank you, Queen Mother, for your teachings. I will keep them in my heart."

Huang Jiao hummed softly, waved her hands, and closed her eyes. The maid next to her came over and helped Huang Jiao lie down again.

After lingering for a moment, Pang Ying exited the Fengchan Hall. b Time Travel Novel: b

As soon as she left the Empress Dowager's Palace, Pang Ying showed a slight smile on her face. Although today's work was not complete, there were still some results, especially Huang Jiao's last sincere teachings, which made Pang Ying feel warm in her heart.

"If she didn't fool around with those bald donkeys, the Queen Mother would be perfect." Pang Ying murmured,
