Chapter 081 Open Threat

Wang saw Li Gefei again. More than ten years ago, when he was a teenager, he seemed to be vivid in his mind. He asked how Li Gefei came and went in a hurry. He was just curious. Generally, officials from other provinces would stay for at least a few days if they came to Beijing to report their duties. What's more, although Li Gefei was not from the capital, his father-in-law was today's prime minister Wang Ji. It's more normal to stay in the capital for a few more days.

Li Gefei said lightly, "A while ago, it was rumored that you came back again. At that time, I wanted to see you, but my father-in-law was an official in the capital, so I would not come to the capital less, so that people would not say that I came here for fame. This time, I happened to be ordered to enter Beijing. I arrived in the capital yesterday evening and went to my father-in-law's house to have a detailed discussion with my father-in-law. Knowing that someone recommended me to the emperor this time, today I recommended me back to be my Yunzhou professor, so I will go back tomorrow.

"That's interesting. Isn't the elected official in line with Uncle Wen's wishes?"

"There is no unsatisfactory thing about the official position. It is mainly the person who elected. I think he has a plan. I didn't know until I asked my father-in-law that the reason why he elected me is to please my father-in-law or have ulterior motives. It's okay if such an official doesn't do it."

Wang side smiled and said, "Uncle Wen, you have always been peaceful. Who can make you so disgusted?"

"I don't like it and I don't have disgust. I just think that the farther away from this person, the better. I'm sure you know that it's Lv Huiqing, who is involved in politics."

The king gave a thumbs-up: "Wise."

Li Gefei didn't seem to say much about Lv Huiqing, and Wang knew a lot about it, so he didn't mention this person again. The two talked for a while. Li Gefei got up and said goodbye,

Wang said with a little regret, "It doesn't matter if others come to the capital. Since Uncle Yong comes to the capital, he has to let me do some of the friendship of the landlord."

"I'll make it up when you get to Yunzhou."

Li Gefei left the study. Jiao Deyou came into the door and said to Wang, "Professor Li thought he was quite honest back then. Although he did something for our royal palace, inside and outside, it can be said that if it was convenient for the people of Taibao Bank to use money in Suzhou, now he never came to the capital to hire cars and horses."

"What's wrong?"

"I just talked to his entourage for a while. Qiao Sheng said that their master is usually thrifty. You also know that the salaries of officials in other provinces are not high. Although Li Gefei has a prime minister's father-in-law, he is very miserable. This time they walked to Beijing, which is also five or six hundred miles."

Wang said to his heart, no wonder he came and went in a hurry, and his time was spent on the road. However, even so, he did not accept the recommendation officer. It seemed that this person was so low-key that he did not change because of the world. No wonder he would have such an excellent daughter,

"Brother Jiao, you arrange someone to drive to see them off."

"Ha ha, I guess you will arrange this when you hear about this. I let them prepare the carriage and the driver. I'll go now."

Jiao Deyou sent someone to drive Li Gefei, and caught up with the master and servant in person. Li Gefei knew the good intentions of the king, so he no longer passed the phor. He returned to the house and happened to move out of the house.

"What are you doing here?" Jiao Deyou asked, thinking that this boy was looking for a fishing rod again,

Shi Qian glanced at Jiao Deyou and said, "I gave the prince the letter he wanted. He said that he had nothing to do with me. Didn't you say that my nickname didn't count? I'll go out and make myself famous."

Jiao Deyou said with a smile when he said, "Go, come back with good news, don't cause trouble."

Shi Qian ran away with a smile,

Wang looked at the letter brought back by Shi Qian. It was Zheng Xia's hobby that Cui Xi inquired about. This person is also decent on weekdays, that is, he prefers to drink and sometimes behaves unspected after drinking. Now this person is in the capital, and he has not got a high-ranking official's salary because of the gift. For this reason, he sometimes has quite a few words. When Wang Anshi was together before, Fortunately, when Lv Huiqing resigned from power again, it seemed that Zheng Xia had also looked for Lv Huiqing, but he didn't get what he wanted, so he hated Lv Huiqing even more.

These are exactly what Wang wants to know, especially when he sees that Zheng Xia and Lv Huiqing don't get along with each other, which makes Wang's heart even more. Wine can make people lose their temper. There are bitter smiles and drunkenness, some wine is strong and cowardly, and even more drunken promiscuous, especially for those who are greedy for wine, it is simply easier to take it.

First put aside Zheng Xia's matter and wait for Tong Guan to come back and report that he has sent people to wait in Sun Gu's house. Once Sun Gu returns to the house after finishing his business, he will immediately inform the king.

When it was about four o'clock in the afternoon, the people sent by Tong Guan came back to report the news, saying that Sun Gu had answered the house. Wang Bian shouted twice but no one came. He thought that the boy might be crazy and sent someone to invite Sun Gu. Sun Gu received a letter sent by Wang, and muttered in his heart that he and Wang Originally, he was not very familiar with it. What did the prince call himself? He thought that this man could not afford to provoke. In those years, he was a celebrity around the emperor. After three dynasties, he is now he is the emperor's confidant. I heard that he also going to offer the emperor a fairy elixir to prolong his life. Although such a person has no military power in his hand, it is more terrible than power.

Those who have power in their hands have a range of rights in everything. If there is no such thing as overpower, but the king does not participate in the government, and there is no power in his hand. The more he thinks about it, the more strange it is. He hurriedly prepared a sedan chair to Meyer's mansion,

Looking that the Meyer mansion is not big, a prince actually lived more shabby than an ordinary courtier. The official family of the Meyer mansion brought Sun Gu to the living room. The king was sitting in the main seat. When he saw Sun Gu coming, he didn't get up: "Bachelor Sun is coming, please sit down."

As soon as Sun Gu saw the king, he vaguely looked like that in those years. He thought that it was true that he helped the emperor's alchemy. Now, he did not dare to neglect it and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter that the prince is in a hurry to call me today?"

"Sun Gu, let me ask you what you were doing in the seven years of Northern Song Xining."

In a word, Sun Gu was a little confused. This is not a public court. Why did the little prince ask this as soon as he came up? Fortunately, his official position had not changed for many years, so he answered, "I have been working in Yintai for seven years."

"Do you remember correctly?"

"Your Majesty, don't worry, it must be right. I was transferred to the Privy Council last year. Before that, I was always in the Yintai Division." After he finished speaking, he secretly looked at Wang, and saw that Wang's face was as dark as water. Now Sun Gu muttered even more. He quickly lowered his head and waited for Wang to ask questions,

"I heard that your son is also in Yintai now. Is his name Sun Chao?"

"Yes, my lord, did Sun Chao offend the prince?"

Wang saw Sun Gu's trembling appearance and knew that the other party did not be disrespectful to him, and he did not dare to play tricks, so he asked directly, "I ask you, there was a major event in Xining's seven years. Zheng Xia presented the "People's Map" to the emperor. In the year of famine, the false accusation was caused by his father's new policy. This How much do you know about this?

Sun Gu listened to Wang's voice fiercely. This scene was not like Wang's invitation to ask questions, but it seemed that he was in the court, but he did not dare not say anything. As soon as he entered the door, he felt that although the Meyer mansion was not big, the king's aura was enough.

"Your Majesty, everyone in the court knows about this matter." Sun Gu said that he knew Zheng Xia's drawings, but whether Zheng Xia falsely accused Wang Anshi has not been determined, but when he answered like this, he also felt that something was wrong. It seemed that the court was full of Zheng Xia's false accusations, but if Wang's side wanted to reverse the case for Wang Anshi now, wouldn't he say so be determined to be Zheng Xia's false accusation? Zuo Siyou thought that the old man couldn't get around. He added anxiously, "Your Highness, the prince of Zheng Xia's sacrifice of pictures. The officials of the imperial court know such a big thing, but Zheng Xia's sacrifice of pictures has nothing to do with me."

Seeing that he was nervous, Wang also felt that Sun Gu was timid and tactful. If he knew that Zheng Xia was presenting a picture to the emperor, he would not dare to take Zheng Xia to see the emperor. He thought of the king and sneered: "You don't know that in the imperial city, except for the eunuchs can get close to the emperor, and then he can go to the silver platform to see the emperor directly. Well, I have investigated. On that day, Zheng Xia was brought to the emperor by your Yintai Division. Sun Gu, I can tell you that there is a big and small emergency in this matter. If your Yintai Division's dereliction of duty, the charge of disturbing the Holy Driving is not small.

Looking at Sun Gu's frightened face, he was still a little hesitant in the dark color. Wang quietly picked up the glass and took a sip of water and said, "I remind you again that Sun Chao is also in the Yintai Division now. In case one day the refutation provokes the emperor's displeased, or the urgent matter is not reported to the emperor in time, it is a great sin."

This statement was really very useful. Sun Gu looked helpless: "Your Majesty, didn't you scare me when you said that?"

"I'm not scaring you, I'm threatening you." Wang's side stared at Sun Gu rudely,

Sun Gu's legs trembled. He said with a crying voice, "You, let me think about it. This is definitely not my business, but Zheng Xia has seen the emperor on the picture. Everyone is concerned about those exiles and the resignation of the prime minister. No one paid attention to how Zheng Xia saw the emperor on that day."

Wang pointed his hand to Sun Gu: "Sun Gu, listen to me. Now I give you two hours to check it. If you can't find it, let your son check it. In short, you must give me a letter before tomorrow morning, otherwise you must have heard of my temper."

"Oh, my prince, I'll go right away." Sun Gu was so scared that his heart almost couldn't beat. The matter of the king was too sudden. Thinking of the little bully-like king more than a decade ago, Sun Gu not be afraid, especially he actually said bluntly that he was threatening himself. Who should reason for this matter? Even if it comes to the emperor, he was the business of the Yintai Division at that time, and Zheng Xia's picture was obviously not It's a matter of urgency. Why did you let him go in and see the emperor's picture?

Sun Gu hurried back to send someone to the house to call Sun Chao. The father and son discussed countermeasures. Sun Chao also knew that the king was not easy to mess with, especially when he saw the king recommending Cai Jing in the hall that day. The emperor simply obeyed. There was nothing he could do. Sun Chao hurried back to the Xuanhui Academy to check the files.

Sun Gu and his son were busy over there. When Sun Gu left, it was already dark. Wang was surprised to see that Shi Qian had not come back. He heard that there was some chaos outside, and then Cui Deyou came in with Chen Kang and Zhang Bao.

Wang was overjoyed to see the two of them. Just as he was about to explain to Chen Kang why he didn't recognize him when he was in Yanzhou, but Chen Kang stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, when we just came back, we saw that it seemed to be that time on the street and was tied up. Send someone to have a look."

Cui Deyou clapped his hands: "It's broken. When the boy left, he said that he wanted to give him a nickname. Did he steal other people's things and let others catch him?"
