Chapter 132: Execution(1/2)

‘Xihe Road Strategy Envoy…’

Zhao Xu stared at the melody and pondered for a while, his face showing a congestion.

Su Song held Banhu and frowned from time to time.

He knew that some people would not be willing to do so, but he didn't expect that even the Xihe Road Advisor had urged him to come out!

Zhang Dun's already serious expression added a bit of murderous aura.

The others were different, with a flustered expression and whispering to each other. The hall soon became chaotic. Half of the more than 70 people were looking around back and forth. The sound was very small, and it was buzzing in the small Zichen Hall, and it was noisy.

Zhao Xu thought for a while, looked up at Su Song and Zhang Dun in front of him, and then said lightly: "The Chen Qing family's memorial is also hope that I and the court will forgive Lu Dafang's party, and there is no other content. What do you think of your family?"

Many people thought Zhao Xu was going to punish Thunder Ting's wrath. Seeing him so calm, some people quietly breathed a sigh of relief, while others were even more uneasy!

Cai Jing looked at it and suddenly moved his heart. He walked out of the line and carried the scepter with a strong tone. He said in a deep voice: "I will tell Your Majesty that Lu Dafang should not be exiled from the capital. The border commander of the transportation department should be carefully examined and asked Chen Xi to return to the capital!"

The court officials colluded with generals who held heavy troops on the frontier. It was a taboo in all dynasties, and it was even more so in the Song Dynasty!

Even if everyone knows that no matter how Lu Dafang is, he will not really have the intention to rebel. However, the timing of this memorial is really too subtle!

When it reaches this point, how can I let Lu Dafang leave Beijing? If I don’t find out clearly, who can feel at ease?!

For some reason, the big rock in the hearts of some people in the hall suddenly fell down slowly.

If Lu Dafang was kept locked up under such an excuse and ended up leaving it alone, it might be a good thing.

After Cai Jing's words fell, no one agreed or opposed them.

But this is not what Zhao Xu wants!

He wanted to break a hole in the corrupt and self-organized officialdom in the Song Dynasty and establish his emperor's authority!

Zhao Xu looked at Su Song and Zhang Dun in front of him again, and sat upright gently.

When Chen Pi saw this, she immediately understood and made a gesture to the side door with her right hand on her back.

A small yellow gate flashed immediately. Not long after, a loud shout came from outside the main hall gate: "I heard from Your Majesty, the martial arts doctor, lead the Imperial City Department, Cai You asked for a meeting."

There were too many things in a row, and the court officials were not awake for a while. When they heard the name of "Cai You", many people frowned.

This young man is really fierce. During this period, he has almost no scruples on arresting people and raiding people, beating people and killing people, and he has become a "ghostly worry"!

Su Song had no expression on his face. Today's events were completely beyond his expectations and disrupted his plans. He always had a bad premonition and became stronger and stronger.

Su Shi, Mi Fu and others may not be in the court for a long time, and they are unable to keep up with the rhythm of the court.

More people in the hall are cautious, cautious, and self-righteous.

Since you can't decide, I'll do it!

Zhao Xu's expression remained unchanged, and took a secret breath and said in a deep voice: "Come on!"

Chen Pi glanced outside the side door and said that Empress Dowager Gao's decree had already been prepared.

Cai You came in from outside the door with a purple hat and black boots. In the darkness, he saw the court officials in the hall at first sight, and countless eyes were cast at him.

Even though Cai You was old and born in Cai’s Mansion, he had never seen high-ranking officials and nobles, his legs were still trembling and his expression was tight at this moment.

The people in this hall are the most powerful people in the Song Dynasty!

Cai You was determined to calm down, strode in, raised his hand and said, "My minister Cai You, please see Your Majesty."

Zhao Xu looked at him and said, "Flat."

This is his preparation.

The court officials suddenly became nervous and stared at Cai You, not knowing what the Imperial City Department was going to do.

Cai You stood up, feeling the many sharp eyes in the hall, and suddenly felt the pressure as if he was as strong as a mountain, and he stubbornly said, "Go back to Your Majesty, Lu Dafang's party, except Lu Dafang, all confessed to guilty and confessed more crimes, including..."

"I will report to Your Majesty, Yang Wei, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, asked for a visit."

Before Cai You finished speaking, a long cry rang out outside the hall again.

Cai You's voice was interrupted, and the court officials were moved, and their faces were whispering with solemn expressions.

Not to mention Cai You for now, Yang Wei was the one who gave Lu Dafang a fatal blow!

He didn't come to court before, so what should he do at this time?

What happened in this court today made them dizzy, worried, and ups and downs.

Too many people came to the court meeting this time, and Zhao Xu realized that Yang Wei was not here. He glanced at Cai You, thought for a moment, and said, "Biography."

Chenpi looked slightly annoyed and frowned. Yang Wei destroyed the official plan.

Yang Wei walked in. Perhaps he was too anxious, a little disheveled and panting. He came in with a pile of official documents and letters. He came closer and said loudly: "I have to report to Your Majesty. I dare not not report to Your Majesty. Please read it."

"Report to Your Majesty,"

As soon as Yang Wei finished speaking, someone immediately stepped out and said anxiously: "I impeached the traitor Yang Wei! This person first relied on Wang Anshi. Wang Anshi stopped him. He took the lead in attacking and then relied on Sima Xianggong. Sima Xianggong died of illness. He criticized him and surrendered to Liu Zhi and was promoted. Turning his head, he reported to Liu Zhi and attached to Lu Dafang. Now, he pursued Lu Dafang hard and wanted to kill him quickly. He is really a fickle villain! I ask Your Majesty to remove him from his post and drive him out of the court to face the news!"

After this person, someone quickly stepped out and said, "Your Majesty, Yang Wei is notorious, and all the scholars and scholars call him "Yang Sanbian". He is despicable and shameless. He will do everything he wants to be promoted. Please punish him severely!"

"I'm going to discuss it!"

"I'm going to discuss it!"

"I'm going to discuss it!"

For a time, six or seven people left the line and launched a strong attack on Yang Wei.

Yang Wei's face turned pale, and his hurrying desire to seek credit turned into anger. Yu Guang looked back and wanted to remember these people secretly.

When Zhang Dun saw it, his eyes flashed sharply, he turned around holding Banhu, and said lightly: "All the ones reported by Mr. Yang are treacherous villains, and the facts are there. Are you attacking Mr. Yang now, why do you want to overturn the case?"

The group of people could not speak immediately as they listened.

Because Yang Wei's previous counterattack, Wang Anshi, Liu Zhi, and Lu Dafang, were all "treacherous villains" in the court.

Lu Tao, Su Shi and others looked at each other and said, "Even so, Yang Wei is not very noble! Such people cannot stay in the court."

Yang Wei had actually secretly turned to Zhang Dun before. Zhang Dun had 'high hopes' for Yang Wei, so how could Yang Wei be kicked out of the court so easily? He glanced at Lu Tao and snorted coldly: "You Shu faction has no position, is in a mess, seeks fame, and is who in power attacks whom, and what are the faces to say to others?"

Lu Tao knew that Zhang Dun hated them and did not argue with him, so he said to Zhao Xu: "Your Majesty, Yang Wei's words should not be correct! I would like to drive Yang Wei out of the court. The case of Lu Dafang is heart-warming and the world is booming. I would like to ask Your Majesty to make a decision early."

"I ask Your Majesty to make a decision early."

"I ask Your Majesty to make a decision early."

"I ask Your Majesty to make a decision early."

Su Shi and others quickly left the line and followed up together.

Su Song in front pondered for a moment, and then raised the scepter: "I would like to make a decision early."

Perhaps this sentence did not point out in particular. There were more than 30 people standing out from the court. In the hall of more than 70 people, it seemed extremely eye-catching and huge!

Zhao Xu was so leisurely that he looked at him calmly, sighing in his heart.

‘The power of the conservatives is still strong…’

The so-called "old party" does not refer to Lu Dafang's party, Su Song, Fan Bailu, and Fan Chunren, who even did not stand up in this hall, were all seven out of ten!

Relatively speaking, the reformists of the "New Party" are the minority, not in this palace, but the entire Song Dynasty is also an absolute minority!

Zhang Dun's sword eyebrows kept jumping, his expression was as stern as a swordsman. He ignored the ministers holding the scepter in the hall, bowing together, staring at Yang Wei with cold eyes, and said, "Mr. Yang, what do you have to say?"

Yang Wei was startled by the scene in front of him and lost his mind for a while. Listening to Zhang Dun's words, he turned to look. Seeing Zhang Dun's eyes, Yang Wei's expression suddenly changed!

He felt that if he didn't say anything, Zhang Dun might have killed him!

Yang Wei immediately took a deep breath, suppressed the panic, turned to Zhao Xu, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I cooperated with the Ministry of Justice to sort out the case of Lu Dafang, and found evidence that Lu Dafang was connected to Xia people and betrayed the territory."

As soon as Yang Wei's words fell, they buzzed the Zichen Palace like a bomb. The ministers could not hear other sounds, only Yang Wei's words were in his ears and were shaking in his mind.

In the Zichen Palace, almost everyone was watching Yang Wei.

His words are too heavy!

Collusion with barbarians and betrayal of territory is nothing more than planning a rebellion!

Su Song, Zhang Dun, Cai Bian, Liang Tao, Su Shi, etc., everyone stared at Yang Wei in shock.

Zhao Xu's eyes were slightly opened, and he sat upright, with a stern expression and a cold tone, saying, "Yang Qing's family is framed by the court officials to rebel. Do you know what the blame is!"

This is also something many people didn't have time to scold. Listening to the official questioning, everyone became more serious and stared at Yang Wei solemnly, and their hearts were even more nervous.

No matter how wrong Lu Dafang is, he is always a "little matter". However, if you plan to rebel, there is no forgiveness. Who dares to argue about it?

Yang Wei held the memorial book and trembled slightly. He was extremely frightened, but he still held on and said calmly: "Go to Your Majesty, I have a letter from Lu Dafang and Huang Yong, the general manager of the cavalry and infantry of Qinfeng Road."

What Zhao Xu couldn't tolerate the most was that the soldiers on the front line fought with their lives. The civil servants behind not only pulled their backs, but also stabbed them in the back!

Zhao Xu's voice became colder and he said, "Say!"

Yang Wei felt the cold air in the hall, and gritted his teeth and said, "It was the fourth year of Yuanyou. The Xia people attacked him. Huang Yong suggested selling 200,000 yuan to the Xia people in each village in exchange for the Xia people to withdraw his troops. Lu Dafang replied 'Ko'..."

Zhao Xu stood up suddenly and shouted, "Take it!"

Chenpi was shocked and ran over quickly, took it and handed it to Zhao Xu.

The court officials were shocked and frightened.
