Chapter 232 Lin'an Anecdotes

When Song Qing was engaged in the flourishing of Buddhism in Chengdu, Zhao Huan, the emperor of the Song Dynasty, was also receiving Xia Houcheng, an official from Luoyang.

In fact, Xiahoucheng has been in Lin'an for some days, but he is always hesitant to come to see the emperor?

Xiahoucheng belongs to Cao Yingxin in Luoyang, but no one knows it except himself. Of course, it is even more impossible for him to tell others this idea, otherwise he would have known that he would have died long ago.

But he has arrived in Lin'an. If he can't see the emperor, how can he be at ease for him, a loyal person of the Song Dynasty?

After thinking about it, Xia Houcheng still came to visit Zhao Huan in the name of King Liang. Anyway, the task given to him by the King of Liang is to spy on the dynamics of the Song court, so it should be reasonable to look at the emperor with this excuse, right?

Song Qing once told him to pay attention to Huang Qianshan and Qin Hui. He has been paying attention to it, but he did not rush to see him. Because he has always had an intuition, these two people are not from Luoyang.

In Xiahoucheng's idea, he used to be an official of the Song Dynasty. Song Qing may still be worried about himself, so he is likely to be testing himself in this way.

Because he was already suspicious, Xiahoucheng never took action easily, but finally chose to see the emperor. Some words were not good to others, but the emperor should let him know his loyalty.

I heard that this official used to be an official of the Song Dynasty, but now he has become Song Qing's confidant. Zhao Huan is tired of his heart, but Liang Shicheng reminded him not to have any more complaints with Song Qing. Let's see what this person is doing first!

Zhao Huan, who did not stand the advice, met Xia Houcheng. When Xia Houcheng saw Zhao Huan, who was just in his thirties, but was already half a hundred old, with white hair and hunchback, tears almost came down.

After holding a big salute to Zhao Huan, he said respectfully, "Weichen was sent by King Qiansui of Liang. I have confidential matters to inform your majesty. Can you please withdraw the idle people?"

Do you have any confidential matters to tell me? Zhao Huan's heart suddenly came up again. Isn't Brother Song going to like something again? I really have nowhere to give.

Before he opened his mouth, Liang Shicheng beside him had waved his hand to drive out the eunuch maid who was waiting below.

It was too late for Zhao Huan to stop it. He couldn't help frowning and said to himself, "What is Lao Liang doing?" What if this guy is an assassin?

At this time, the sound of Liang Shicheng's yin test echoed in the hall.

"Lord Xiahou, I hope you'd better not have any bad ideas. Your Majesty is willing to meet alone for the sake of being an imperial official. If you have anything, just say it!"

Although Xiahoucheng was trusted by Song Qing, he was not enough to know everything, so he never dreamed that the great eunuch committee beside the emperor was Song Qing.

Seeing that there was indeed no one else beside him, he could no longer control the grief and indignation in his heart, and suddenly fell to the ground and cried.

Zhao Huan was confused by crying, turned his head to look at Liang Shicheng, and said to Xiahoucheng lying under the jade steps, "Your excellency, what's wrong with you? What did Brother Song send you here for?

After a while, Xiahou Cheng stopped crying, got up and choked and said, "I was lucky to see your majesty. My heart was excited for a moment and lost my grace in front of you. I hope your majesty won't be surprised."

It's been a long time since the minister showed such true feelings in front of Zhao Huan. Zhao Huan couldn't help but feel a little moved, but thinking that this guy is Song Qing's subordinate, this feeling soon disappeared.

nodded and said indifferently, "I don't blame you. If you have anything, just say it!"

Xiahoucheng pondered for a moment, but he didn't know how to speak for a moment. If he rashly said that he had been loyal to His Majesty, I'm afraid His Majesty would not believe it.

"Now the world is withered, and the chaotic ministers are rampant. I beg your majesty to take care of your dragon body and cheer up. I believe that there are many helpless thieves in the world, but I am still loyal ministers. I am looking forward to your majesty's efforts to restore the royal orthodoxy as soon as possible."

As long as Xiahoucheng said this, as long as he is not a fool, he can understand what he wants to say.

Zhao Huan didn't understand. He was really scared by Song Qing. What if this guy fell in favor with him again and played a counter-to-counter plan?

Liang Shicheng's eyes flashed, turned his head and nodded to Zhao Huan, intended to speak for himself as the emperor. He said to Xiahoucheng, "So, is Lord Xia Yingxin in Han? It's just that this kind of thing is useless. How can we believe you?

"Song Qing is treacherous, how dare I leave evidence? Moreover, in order to gain the trust of Song thieves, I have also done a lot of things that hurt my Song court. It is not convenient for me to stay here for a long time. Now I have a plan for your majesty. As long as your majesty acts according to this plan, you can know whether I am still loyal to your majesty."

"Oh! What's the plan?"

Xiahoucheng did not hear the trace of sarcasm in Liang Shicheng's tone, and then said: "The Song thief seems to be powerful at present, but in fact it is full of loopholes. As long as your majesty takes advantage of his army to rise in Shu, he sends a large army to cut off its way, and then sends people to unite with Xixia, and the State of Jin will send troops together. At that time, the Song thief will be difficult to take care of it. And if I secretly contact a group of ministers who are still loyal to His Majesty, I will definitely turn the world around in one fell swoop"

Withaticing Liang Shicheng's words, Zhao Huan couldn't help saying, "Your plan sounds good, but you should know that the Jin people are much more ruthless than Song Qing. If it hadn't been for Song Qing, I would have become a Jin people who would have been captured long ago. How can you let me believe the Jin people?"

"At this time, at that time, the golden soldiers were powerful, but now after a series of civil strife, their strength is not as good as before, and the land of Yan Yun has been occupied by Song thieves, and they are always thinking about regaining it. As long as your majesty pretends to make the land of Yanyun and promise them again, and after eliminating the Song thieves, he will take advantage of the military power to flatten the Jin Kingdom and reproduce my Song Xiongfeng"

Xiahoucheng's scheming is very deep, his inner ideals are very beautiful, and his strategy is not poisonous, but unfortunately he still thinks too highly of the emperor he wants to be loyal to.

Song Qing? I will kill him back and forth every night, but that's in a dream. Does anyone dare to brush Song Qing's beard in reality? Not to mention that your territory is getting smaller and smaller, don't you see what kind of mother the powerful gold has been tossed into?

So whoever wants to hit it! I won't accompany you. Besides, what if this boy was sent by Song Qing to test me?

Thinking of this, Zhao Huan suddenly laughed and stood up and turned back to the apse.

Xiahou Cheng, who was impassionedly planning how to eliminate Liangshan's forces, couldn't help but be stunned. Did he say it wrong?

Liang Shicheng said with a gloomy smile, "Lord Xiahou, please go back and tell King Liang Qiansui that your Majesty is determined to live in harmony with King Liang for generations, so don't come to test your majesty again."

Xiahoucheng's heart instantly sank to the bottom of the valley, but he still did not give up and said anxiously, "Faxir, I really..."

He was stopped by Liang Shicheng before he finished speaking. Liang Shicheng slowly approached Xiahoucheng, and then said in a voice that only two people could hear, "Why didn't you remind your majesty to pay attention to Qin Hui and Huang Qianshan?"

"Ah! You..."

Xiahoucheng was so scared that he almost peed his pants, because what Liang Shicheng said was exactly what Song Qing said when he was in Luoyang. Now from the mouth of this great eunuch, there is no need to ask, this great eunuch is the undercover agent sent by Song Qing to his majesty.

So, all this is just Song Qing's arrangement to test himself. Then Luoyang doesn't have to go back by himself. He must have prepared the knife over there. Thinking that I had exhausted my calculation, but still hadn't calculated Song Qing, my heart suddenly turned into anger.

You should know that Xiahoucheng was also a general. After standing for a moment, he suddenly roared and rushed to Liang Shicheng.

"I killed you, the castrate"

Liang Shicheng dreamed that Xia Houcheng dared to attack him here, shouting at the arrival and speeding up his pace. It's just that he was old and weak, how could he run through Xiahoucheng in his prime, so he was caught up by Xiahoucheng and fell to the ground without running a few steps.

"Come,"

Before the character was shouted out, his neck had been strung by Xiahoucheng. At this time, the guards and eunuchs waiting outside the hall also poured in.

The man who pulled his arm and pulled his head finally pulled Xiahoucheng away. Looking at Liang Shicheng, although his life was not in danger, he was bitten off a piece of meat on his face. Lao Liang kept screaming in pain.

"Exit him to our house and beat him to death"

In fact, the guards have already pulled Xiahoucheng out, but the leaders of these guards have kept an eye on their minds, because this person who dares to bite Grand Duke Liang is the thousand years old of King Liang. Isn't it to offend King Liang to kill him?

So the bodyguard did not ask Liang Shicheng, so he released Xiahoucheng in the name of the murderer's escape.

Xiahoucheng shouted that Liang Shicheng was a Liangshan spy, but who would believe it? Throw him out of the palace and he will no longer be allowed to approach.

After venting his anger, Xiahoucheng also calmed down. The Lin'an court refused to believe himself, and Luoyang could not go back. Where should he go?

I meditated for a moment and gritted my teeth. The only thing I can do now is to go to the State of Jin. Anyway, I still know some secrets of Liangshan. When I get to the State of Jin, I can't make a living.

Those who accompanied him to the palace followed his cronies in the early years, and the bodyguards were left in the post hall.

Thinking of this, Xia Houcheng did not hesitate to rush to the dock with his trusted men, preparing to take a boat to cross the river, and then take the way to Jin Guo.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Xiahoucheng got on the boat, he suddenly found that the head of the bodyguard who escorted him was also on the ship. Seeing this scene, Xia Houcheng's heart completely sank.

The bodyguard commander bowed and said, "Take the order of Lord Cao, the general manager of the internal guard, to send you on the road"

The boat quickly started, and the river was leisurely, as if nothing had happened.

Xiahoucheng is over, but it has ruined Liang Shicheng. Because a piece of meat was bitten off on his face, he can't wait in front of the king again. If he can't see the emperor, it means that he will gradually lose the emperor's favor.

Lao Liang thought about it and had enough of him over the years. Since Zhao Huan doesn't like to see him, he should go to Luoyang for retirement! He is the general of the auxiliary country personally sealed by King Liang, and he has done so many things for King Liang. Even if he has no power, he will not be as neglected as he is now.

So Lao Liang righteously sent a letter to Luoyang, saying that he was injured and hoped to go to Luoyang to recover from his injury.

Song Qing can't do the matter of killing donkeys, which doesn't mean that others can't do it.

After receiving the news, Cao Zheng knew that if Liang Shicheng arrived in Luoyang, he would definitely cause a lot of trouble to the prince. So he made his own decision and sent someone to invite Grandpa Liang to go to paradise on the way to Luoyang.

Liang Shicheng, the biggest undercover agent beside Zhao Huan, was finished, but unexpectedly completed a person, that is, Qin Hui, who lost the news.
