At night, in the back hall of a house in the north of the city, Chen Dong and Jiang Jing looked at more than a dozen large wooden boxes in front of them. After a subordinate opened one of them, they saw that it was filled with all kinds of gold and silver jewelry. The land deeds were used as tickets. It's a bit dazzling.
"This Cai Jing is really a traitor who has harmed the country. He has done so much," his subordinates said in surprise.
Jiang Jing took a look, stepped forward and picked up a stack of land deeds at random, and said with a smile: "Although the amount Cai Jing gave to the court seems to be large, the real value is here. These land deeds account for almost one and a half percent of the entire Bianjing. Every year It’s the rent from merchants, which is a huge amount of income!”
Chen Dong smiled and said, "These will be left in Bianjing. Brother Jiang will arrange them for you. The rest will be sent back to Qi."
"good!!"
"By the way, Brother Jiang, how is Gao Qiu's matter??"
"Shaoyang Anxin, Coach Lin was harmed so badly by Gao Qiu and Gao Yanei, so thinking of leaving like this is just a dream. I asked Lord Du Xing to pretend to be a knight, and find an opportunity to take their heads back. I gave it to Coach Lin as a gift."
"That's good!" Chen Dong nodded and said, "The matter is almost over here, it's time to go back."
"Shaoyang, this time the court has eradicated the four traitorous officials, will it happen in the future?" Jiang Jing was suddenly worried.
When Chen Dong heard this, he smiled and said: "Brother Jiang, why does the imperial court have treacherous ministers in power?"
"this..."
"That's because our officials are content to enjoy themselves. You see, now it's to appease everyone. But when the situation returns to the original state, the so-called loyal ministers who speak out will definitely be despised again. It's not that simple to go from ease to hardship. , especially for our official family."
"Also, Wang Shaozai has now decided to be united with Qi State. With him here, it will be good for the Song Dynasty to be stable. If he wants to regain his strength, how can Qi State allow it?" Chen Dong said coldly.
Jiang Jing listened and nodded slightly.
"Secret" At this moment, a soldier ran in, clasped his fists and said: "Someone from the palace came to the house just now, saying that the queen asked you to come to the palace tomorrow."
"Queen" Chen Dong and Jiang looked at each other respectfully.
. . . .
The next day, in the palace, Chen Dong followed a female official into the main hall. After hearing the announcement, he immediately saluted and said: "I, Chen Dong, the driver of the State Army of Qi, pay my respects to the empress. May the empress be a thousand years old!!"
"There is no need to be polite, Chen secret." Under the gentle voice, a woman wearing a beautiful crown, dignified and elegant manners, and gentle eyes said softly.
It was Empress Zheng of the Song Dynasty. Zheng was originally the leader of the female officials in the Empress Dowager's Palace. When Zhao Ji was still King Duan, every time she went to the Cide Palace of the Empress Dowager to pay her respects, the Empress Dowager would order Zheng and Wang to Two female officials served beside Zhao Ji. Later, when Zhao Ji came to the throne, the Queen Mother gave them to Zhao Ji.
After Zheng entered the palace, she was favored by Zhao Ji because of her talent and courtesy. After the death of Queen Xiangong Wang Fanying, she was officially made queen and gave birth to a son and five daughters to Zhao Ji.
"Thank you, empress"
"Chen Mi Mi, I heard that you were once a student of Taixue"
"Exactly!!"
"How old are you this year??"
"Your Majesty, there are three out of twenty."
"Is there an engagement??"
"Not yet!!" Chen Dong asked with some confusion.
When Mrs. Zheng heard this, she looked at Chen Dong who still lowered his head and was extremely respectful, and said with a trace of satisfaction: "At such an age, he is already an important minister of the country and the buttocks of the King of Qi. No wonder the official family has been doing this for a long time. I always praise you!!”
"Your Majesty, you are so honored."
"I asked you to come here today because I want to tell you that His Majesty plans to marry an imperial concubine to you. Are you willing?"
"I" Chen Dong raised his head in surprise.
"Why, you don't want to?" Zheng frowned.
"I dare not. Your Majesty and your Majesty, I am extremely grateful for your grace. However, my coming this time is based on the order of His Highness the King of Qi, so..."
Zheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, His Majesty will send someone to tell King Qi about this matter. What do you think is the key?"
Chen Dong frowned, and after a slight hesitation, he immediately said: "I will comply with the arrangements of the official family, empress, and His Highness the King of Qi!!"
"Okay, then you can stay a little longer. As for which one it is, the officials will make their own decision."
"yes!!"
. . . .
A few days later, in Jingdong, in the former Jiedu Mansion and now the Palace of King Qi, Song Jiang, now wearing a purple gold crown and a black python king's robe, and becoming more majestic and dignified, was seen holding the letter with a happy face. He smiled and said: "Okay, this is a good thing. We have set a goal for the next three years, which is to consolidate the foundation, open up wasteland, and cultivate talents. Shaoyang has outstanding talents. He is the talent of my filial piety. Of course, Emperor Ji has the talent." match!!"
"Your Majesty, the marriage of the Di Ji can indeed strengthen the relationship between our Qi Kingdom and the Song Dynasty, and also make our Qi Kingdom more accepted by the people of the world, but Shaoyang is an important minister of our Qi Kingdom, will it happen in the future..." Pei next to him. Xuan said worriedly.
"No, Shaoyang seems to be a casual person, but he is never confused about important matters. In addition, this time Shaoyang marries the emperor, the dowry is astonishingly large. If he marries, our official family will willingly give birth to virtue and Bin Er. Give me the land of Qi State."
"I think I need to send an important minister over, first to express my gratitude, second to discuss the marriage, and third to negotiate with Jiangnan." After Song Jiang said, he glanced at the people in front of him and then looked at Wu Yong, "I Look, let me, the left prime minister of Qi State, come over and talk to you this time!"
After everyone was stunned for a moment, they looked at Wu Yong who was also a little surprised. Liang Qiao quickly said: "Your Majesty, the left prime minister has many affairs, isn't it inappropriate?"
"There are a lot of things to do, so I can let you work hard first. I have already planned to bring back Zhang Jun, Han Wenyao, and Chai Jin. This time the left prime minister is here, not only does it represent the gratitude of our country for this generous reward, but it will also help If we talk about Jiangnan, it must be Zu Shiyuan, the right minister of Chu State, who will take action. Zuo Tongtang is a close friend. I see that this negotiation is not a simple matter. Cai Jing and the others have fallen, and the DPRK is now using Zongze, Liang Shi became the leader of the new force. As the so-called new official took office, the court defeated Chu and Jin one after another. Without a suitable middleman, the talks are likely to collapse. This is not what the King of Chu and I want to see. !!”
"You also know that because of Han Shizhong, the King of Chu is also a little wary of the court's background. In addition to some of their atrocities at the beginning of the uprising, they also urgently need time to stabilize and appease them!!"
"So I can only work hard for the left prime minister," Song Jiang said.
When Wu Yong heard this, he quickly said: "The king is serious, I will set off tomorrow!!"
After Song Jiang nodded, he stepped forward and said: "This time, military advisor, you will go there in person. You must reach an agreement between the Chu State and the imperial court. Otherwise, our Qi State will be caught in the middle, which will be detrimental to the future."
"I understand"
"In addition, make more friends with officials from the DPRK and China. Although Shaoyang is talented, his qualifications are not enough after all. Only the left prime minister can truly represent Qi," Song Jiang said warmly.
"Thank you, Your Majesty," Wu Yong said with emotion on his face.
After Song Jiang nodded, he said: "Oh, by the way, you have to pass through Daming Mansion this time, so you might as well take Lu Junyi with you. Although he has surrendered, he always feels that he has not made any great achievements. Instead, it is because of our Qi State that we can eradicate evil." Servant, I have always felt very ashamed of the official position bestowed upon me. Even Peng Ju admires his martial arts. It might be useful to take him with you!!"
Although it is impossible for Lu Junyi to become the so-called second person now, Song Jiang still values this person who is known as the ceiling of Water Margin martial arts.
"yes!!"
"In addition, it's time for the Central Guards to go to the imperial capital. Let brother Jiang Jing come back!!" Song Jiang said with a smile.
"Yes, Your Majesty"
"Prime Minister Zuo, be careful all the way"
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty!!"
