Chapter 369: The Case of Arrival at the Pawnshop (15)
When Qin Shaobai heard Zhao Bai talk about his cooperation with Wo Kuotai, he almost got thunderous on the spot.
"General Zhao, do you know what you are doing?"
Zhao Bai replied calmly while wiping his jade flute.
"Of course I know what I am doing. This account book is very important. If the emperor cannot get the real account book back from the queen, not only will our efforts be in vain, but General Bi may also be seriously injured because of our mistakes.
Guilty."
He raised his head and glanced at Qin Shaobai.
"General Bi is the backbone of the Song Dynasty. Are you willing to watch him suffer unjust injustice? Moreover, the injustice was done to him by a few of us."
"Of course I know that I need to find the real account book, and I will not just sit idly by and ignore General Bi's life and death. However, we cannot use any means to achieve our goals. In that case, it is very likely that we will drink poison to quench our thirst and lure the wolf into the house."
Zhao Bai laughed sarcastically.
"Shaobai, you think too highly of this great man. I think Genghis Khan doesn't pay much attention to him at all. The future Great Khan of Mongolia is very likely to be a dragger."
Qin Shaobai simply had nothing to say.
He didn't understand where Zhao Bai got this conclusion and concluded that Genghis Khan would pass the throne to Ogedai.
He almost told Zhao Bai what little history he knew, and told Zhao Bai that Wokuotai was not as easy to control as he appeared.
"Shaobai, is it possible that the facts stated in the history books of your time are different from what I expected?"
Zhao Bai lowered his voice and asked Qin Shaobai.
Qin Shaobai opened his mouth, but finally said nothing.
"General Zhao, no matter what, cooperating with foreign races will not be a good strategy. It will most likely send yourself to a state of eternal destruction."
"Don't worry, Shaobai. I just want to rely on Wo Kuotai's power to obtain the account books. As for what we did to the fourth prince Tuo Lei, we don't need to do it ourselves at all."
Qin Shaobai looked at Zhao Bai in disbelief. He felt more and more that Zhao Bai was completely different from before.
"Then what exactly is General Zhao going to do?"
"Actually, what I think is very simple. What we are facing now is not only the Jin Kingdom, but also the Mongolian people who are eyeing us. I guess that what finally made our Song Dynasty disappear was not the Jin Kingdom that had begun to decline, but the industry view.
The mighty Mongolia.”
Zhao Bai stood up, put the clean jade flute to his mouth, and started playing it gently.
Suddenly, the melody that he had not heard for a long time sounded in Qin Shaobai's ears again.
Qin Shaobai seemed to have returned to Nanyang County, back to those vibrant days.
This song made Qin Shaobai completely dissatisfied with Zhao Bai.
He actually somewhat agreed with Zhao Bai's plan to assassinate Tuo Lei.
Whether it is Wokuotai or Tuo Lei, they are both Genghis Khan's darlings.
Moreover, among the sons of Genghis Khan, these two were the only ones with the potential to become emperors.
If Tuo Lei was really assassinated and he tried to pin the blame on Wo Kuotai, it was very likely that Genghis Khan would lose two sons at once, which would be equivalent to cutting off Genghis Khan's right-hand man.
Having lost two capable sons, Genghis Khan may not have such ambitions. Maybe he would guard his piece of grassland, lead his people to herd sheep and cattle, and stand on the same river as the Song Dynasty without disturbing each other.
In that case, the people of the Song Dynasty could also enjoy decades of peace.
Of course, without Tuo Lei and without Kublai Khan, there will definitely be someone else to bring the Song Dynasty to an end.
If the Song Dynasty wanted to be truly invincible, it would not be enough to rely on the opponent's self-destruction.
Bai Min's words came to Qin Shaobai's mind again, don't interfere with history.
However, after he has been here for so many years, he has slowly begun to transform himself into a Song Dynasty person. From the bottom of his heart, he hopes that the Song Dynasty can come out of the shadow of the Mongols from the Jin Kingdom and live a prosperous country and a strong people.
Life.
Seeing Qin Shaobai's expression becoming more and more peaceful, Zhao Bai knew that Qin Shaobai's heart had been relaxed.
He quickly added another sentence.
"Shaobai, I promise you, I will regard all the virtuous ministers of the Song Dynasty as the treasures of the Song Dynasty, and do my best to protect them so that they can feel the favor of the court and serve the Song Dynasty without any distractions.
Work hard for Song’s future.”
In order to express his determination, Zhao Bai put the jade flute across his neck: "This time, if I betray General Bi's trust, Shao Bai, you will use this jade flute to hit me hard and kill me."
My flesh and blood are given to the big one to devour."
"General Zhao, why are you doing this? We won't let General Bi lose everything because of us."
Qin Shaobai said, his face condensed, and he said again.
"Today I went to the prison of the Imperial City Division, but I didn't see General Bi. They said that General Bi was a serious criminal of the imperial court and should not be seen by idlers. I was also planning to ask General Zhao to come with me to visit General Bi. In this way, those
The jailers also know General Bi's prominent status, so they won't do anything to embarrass him."
"Don't worry about Shaobai. I came back from Bi Mansion last night and visited General Bi. I also told Feiyu that I wanted him to treat General Bi like a hero in the court."
Qin Shaobai raised his eyebrows slightly.
What he felt when he went to the prison this morning was not the treatment of a hero as Zhao Bai said.
"I still want to see General Bi. After all, it was my idea that put him in jail now."
Speaking of this, Qin Shaobai's mind automatically pictured Bi Zaiyu lying in a dirty prison. He actually felt the corners of his eyes heat up and almost shed tears.
"Then Shaobai, in what capacity do you want to see General Bi?"
Qin Shaobai was startled by Zhao Bai's question.
"General Zhao, since you have shown your true colors, there is no need for me to hide anything anymore, don't you think?"
"Okay, then you can go meet General Bi as Lian Bai, my Zhao Bai's company deputy general."
Zhao Bai sent someone to call Feiyu and asked Feiyu to take Qin Shaobai to see Bi Zaiyu.
Who would have thought that Fei Yu would look troubled.
Qin Shaobai couldn't help but become anxious.
"Feiyu, didn't something happen to General Bi?",
"No, nothing happened. General Bi is doing well."
Feiyu made sure there was no one around and whispered: "The emperor asked General Bi to go to his villa. Today, the emperor went to the villa to chat with General Bi. We haven't heard the emperor's cheerfulness for a long time.
of laughter.”
Zhao Bai smiled slightly at Qin Shaobai.
"How about it, don't worry now."
Qin Shaobai did not expect that Song Ningzong would love talents so much, so he naturally let go of many worries in his heart.
However, he immediately thought that the entire Lin'an City should know that Bi Mansion was raided, and it was impossible for Shi Miyuan and the others to fail to take action.
"Feiyu, is there any movement over there, Right Prime Minister?"
Feiyu shook his head.
"The right minister came to ask for leave from the emperor this morning. He said that he was going to Yixing and it might take three to five to seven days for him to come back."
Why did Shi Miyuan choose to go to Yixing at this critical moment?
When the word Yixing came up, the first thing Qin Shaobai thought of was his and Xiaolan's children.
That child, after many changes, had become the son of Lian Huan and Mei Qingyi's housekeeper, but Lian Huan didn't know about this.
Qin Shaobai immediately killed the worry in his heart.
Since even Huan doesn't know the identity of the child, I believe Shi Miyuan won't know either.
You must know that the current Shi Miyuan is not the cunning and insidious Shi Miyuan of the past. He is just an ordinary Mongolian, just a pawn of Wo Kuotai's men.
At this time, Qin Shaobai wanted to understand why Shi Miyuan went to Yixing.
The point is not to go to Yixing, the point is to leave Lin'an City.
This must be the first gift Wokuotai gave to Zhao Bai.
Without Shi Miyuan's entanglement, the pawnshop case would be much easier to handle.
Sure enough, Zhao Bai was already asking Feiyu.
"Did Mr. Shi go to Yixing alone?"
"No, Mr. Shi brought several close associates with him."
"Okay, we understand. You remember to protect the emperor and General Shang Bi."
After Feiyu retreated, Zhao Bai said to Qin Shaobai again.
"Shaobai, almost all the people in the court who favor Shi Miyuan have left. It's time for us to show off our skills."
He clenched his fists and looked into the distance.
"This time, I will pull out all the roots of Shi Miyuan."
