Doing so was tantamount to treating Han Qing as an ally. Especially when he knew that Han Qing had been transferred back to the capital and his fate was uncertain, this move was absolutely valuable.
Immediately, Han Qing felt a little moved in his heart. However, he smiled and shook his head, "Uncle Hui actually doesn't have to be like this. Even if everyone believes that the assassin's target is me, who can deny me the permission to trace the behind-the-scenes story?"
Instructing the messenger is not enough? What’s more..."
"You don't have to rush to refuse first, just listen to what I have to say!" Wang Shu glanced at Han Qing and interrupted in a low voice, "I don't care how others slander you, and I don't care how the officials plan to treat those rumors. I do.
I saw with my own eyes that you spent all night investigating backlogged cases on Yongxing Military Road, even though most of the cases had nothing to do with your own affairs. I also saw that you risked your career and life to sneak into Xiazhou and win for the Song Dynasty.
At least ten years of peace in the northwest territory. I also saw that you were fighting against illegal gangsters on Jingdong East Road, rescuing abducted children, and spending your own money to adopt and place girls who were rescued from the island and abandoned by their parents.
"
Smiling, his voice suddenly became louder, "If this is the person who has been reincarnated and robbed, I sincerely hope that the more people in the Song Dynasty who have been reincarnated and robbed, the better. I don't have the skills of Kou Xiang, so I may not be able to protect him.
You are considerate. However, I will not let others deal with you, let alone try every means to suppress you for my own selfishness. Besides..."
He smiled again, and suddenly there was a bit of arrogance on his face, "The most glorious thing in life is to be named on the gold medal list and be granted the title of Prime Minister. I am the top scholar in high school at the age of twenty-nine, and I will become a minister of government at the age of forty-one. From now on, even if
I can't make any further progress. I can survive until I am begging for my bones, but I can survive to become a founding prince. Since I am already as good as I should be, why should I ruin it for the extra power?
Therefore, as long as you are in Kaifeng Mansion, I will do my best to protect you. And I also believe that treating the target of the assassin as me will be more conducive for you to let go and investigate the case.
Let the truth come to light, and the hidden dangers in the heart of the Song Dynasty will be solved as soon as possible! Otherwise, if that religion is allowed to develop, I am worried that the Song Dynasty will repeat the mistakes of the later Tang Dynasty!"
As expected of a top scholar, in just a few sentences, he explained clearly and irrefutably the reasons why he chose to stand up from a personal and righteous perspective.
With private life, he has experienced the most glorious scenery in life, and does not covet power. He only cares about clearing his name after his death. Of course, after the two of them were attacked by assassins at the same time, no matter what, Han Qing cannot be allowed to go alone with the mastermind behind the assassins.
He tried his best, but he himself chose to stay out of it.
You Gong, the assassins and their accomplices have all infiltrated into the Upper Fourth Army, which is responsible for protecting the safety of the Gyeonggi area and the imperial city. If we don't quickly take heavy action to clean up in time, the Song Dynasty will sooner or later be destroyed by a sudden outbreak like the Later Tang Dynasty.
internal rebellion.
Back then, Emperor Li Cunxu of the Later Tang Dynasty destroyed Khitan in the north, Hou Liang in the south, and Qian Shu in the west. It can be said that he was in the limelight for a while. The people of the Central Plains even saw the hope of reviving the Tang Dynasty again.
However, he lost everything because of a civil strife. The usurper Li Siyuan was not as talented as one-tenth of Li Cunxu. The Tang Dynasty re-established by Li Cunxu soon died at the hands of Li Siyuan's son-in-law Shi Jingtang.
And it was precisely because Shi Jingtang, in order to ensure the success of usurping the throne, that he obtained the support of the Liao Kingdom at the expense of the Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, that the Central Plains began to be under the prying eyes of the Khitan cavalry day and night.
From then on, any Central Plains court that wanted to regain the homeland of Yanyun had to face a mountain of passes and more than 100,000 cavalry. But when the Khitan cavalry went south, they had to face a flat plain. (Note: After the Khitan occupied the Beijing area
, facing the North China Great Plains to the south.)
Therefore, even if Wang Shu does not want to clear his name after his death, he must fully support Han Qing and find out the person behind the assassination.
Instead of worrying about whether the assassin's real target is him, he might as well take the initiative to elevate the case to the level of assassinating the deputy prime minister of the dynasty, giving Han Qing more room for display!
"Thank you Uncle Hui, Han will live up to you!" Hearing Wang Shu's words word for word, Han Qing knew that if he pushed back, he would have failed Wang Shu's hard work. Therefore.
, stood upright and bowed to Wang Shu to the ground.
This time, Wang Shu was not polite and accepted Han Qing's bow with a smile. Then he introduced in a low voice, "Zhe Weizhong is your old acquaintance. Yang Wenguang's grandfather is Yang Yanzhao. His ability is not weaker than Zhe Wei's."
He is loyal and has a very reliable character. Wang Yan is weaker, but he and Zhang Wenhuan are sworn brothers. You avenged Zhang Wenhuan on Jingdong East Road. He and the military officers in Kaifeng Mansion are only grateful to you. In addition,
I, the five of us, working together, can always defeat half of the invaders, and strive to ensure that Bianliang is safe and sound during the official expedition!"
"I also have Wu You, Wang Wu, Zhang Fan, Liu Hong and other reliable brothers over there." Since Wang Shu had made it clear that he wanted to advance and retreat together, Han Qing was not polite and immediately made a request to the other party in a low voice, "Originally
I planned to take them to compete with the Nanmian Xingren Division of Liao Kingdom. Unexpectedly, the court was so anxious to transfer me back to Bianliang, so I had no choice but to find ways to summon them back."
"I know that you were waiting for them during the few days you stayed in Dengzhou. As the saying goes, you can't do anything alone, even if you are an old man, you will find some reliable helpers for yourself." Wang Shu understood his thoughts very well and immediately nodded gently.
, "There should be vacancies in both the Southern Division and the Northern Division. Even if they are not, there are still two Military Patrol Courts on the left and right under the Northern Division."
"I would like to ask Uncle Hui to help me arrange a few people to control Hesi." Han Qing thought for a while and continued to whisper, "The imperial court transferred me back to the capital this time. I don't know if it was an oversight or if there were other considerations.
They didn’t even ask me to hand over my position as the judge of the Crane Control Bureau at Jingdong East Road to someone else.”
"You must have forgotten that before you went to East Road, the Crane Control Bureau had been abandoned for many years. The officials originally handed over the Criminal and Prison Department and the Crane Control Bureau to facilitate your investigation of Zhang Wenhuan's assassination case.
You." Wang Shu immediately gave part of the answer without even thinking about it.
"This..." Han Qing suddenly couldn't believe his ears.
Even the chief officer of the Crane Control Bureau can forget that the Song Dynasty court was too sloppy in its work?! If someone takes the opportunity to cheat in the name of the new Crane Control Bureau judge, wouldn't it be possible to bring down the entire Jingdong East Road?
The officialdom is being turned upside down?
"The Khitan people drank their horses in the Yellow River, and the officials suddenly wanted to march in person. Among the officials, many people would inevitably panic!" Wang Shu, however, had already seen the strangeness and explained with a smile, "Anyway, I will get a place in the capital.
You are not the first person to take this position. I just want you to get an extra salary. But..."
Suddenly he smiled secretly, and his voice quickly became low, "However, this is also a good thing. I have just been promoted to the position of Chief Minister, so it is always appropriate to recommend a few of my own people. Another day, I will follow King Yong who is ordered to supervise the country.
Go and tell me that in order to thoroughly investigate the case of my assassination, I want you to be transferred to the fifth rank Zuo Langzhong of the Konghe Division. Zuo Langzhong is on the same level as the judge of Donglu Konghe, so he can't find an excuse to reject me!"
