But they still dared not stop.
He opened his mouth and said,
"Those two traitors, Tian Hu and Wang Qing,"
"They already have tens of thousands of troops!"
"Why did you tell our family?"
"They're just two petty bandits!"
Chapter 1544 This official position is well-deserved!
Wang Fu kowtowed repeatedly.
I did come up with an idea,
At that moment, he ignored the pain in his forehead.
He replied with a completely innocent expression.
"These two men merely coerced some refugees,"
"Even if the number is in the tens of thousands,"
"They're nothing but a rabble."
"Prime Minister Tong has another 800,000 Imperial Guards,"
"This humble official believes that with the power of the imperial court,"
"I want to kill them."
"It's nothing more than an easy task."
That's why I said that.
This Tokyo is said to have 800,000 imperial guards.
However, most of these were salaries paid without actual employment.
Most of the powerful officials in the court got a share of the spoils.
Wang Fu naturally took quite a bit as well.
Seeing that Wang Fu was trying to shift the blame onto him, Tong Guan...
He also knew that this guy was retaliating against him for exposing the matter.
However, because of his alliance with the Jin dynasty to attack the Liao dynasty,
I also don't want to antagonize Wang Fu.
He nodded and said,
"What Lord Wang said is not wrong,"
"If a large army is sent to suppress the bandits in Hedong and Huaixi,"
"These two bandits are really nothing."
"But what if four groups of rebels rebelled at the same time?"
"At that time, the court will inevitably have to attend to one thing while neglecting another."
When Liang Shicheng heard Tong Guan say that Tian Hu and Wang Qing were no match for him, he was shocked.
Then he waved to Wang Fu and said,
"You get up first!"
"Thank you, sir!"
Wang Fu kowtowed.
After thanking Liang Shicheng,
Only then did I dare to stand up.
They just stood there, head bowed and obedient.
Liang Shicheng looked at Wang Fu as if he were a servant.
Standing there,
A sense of satisfaction welled up within me.
"Tong Shumi, tell Wang Fu in detail what happened today,"
"You guys discuss how to deal with this."
Tong Guan immediately reported all matters concerning the Great Xiangguo Temple.
He repeated it again.
Wang Fu also pretended to know this just now.
Their expressions were all startled.
After listening to Tong Guan's story,
Wang Fu pondered for a while before speaking.
"If these thieves really are them,"
"The three families of Tian Hu, Wang Qing, and Zhao Dalang,"
"They're just three ordinary bandits!"
"Even if it escalates, it will at most harm the nearby prefectures,"
"And it's nothing to worry about."
"The real problem, however, is the Manichaeism that's spread across several routes,"
"Cai Jing's tea and salt laws back then,"
"This has caused great resentment among the people of the southeast,"
"If we allow the Ming Cult to cause trouble,"
"I'm afraid the entire southeast is going to be in big trouble."
Liang Shicheng nodded.
"The scourge of the Ming Cult is indeed greater than that of bandits,"
"So, in your opinion, how should this matter be handled?"
Wang Fu answered cautiously.
"The imperial court has always prohibited the spread of Manichaeism,"
"Now that I think about it, they were just a secret society,"
"If we rashly allow the local officials to arrest him,"
"I'm afraid it won't be able to damage the very foundation of the Ming Cult."
"In my humble opinion, it would be better to address the root cause!"
"Just abolish Cai Jing's tea and salt laws!"
"In this way, the people of the southeast no longer harbored resentment,"
"Even if the Ming Cult rebels then,"
"I'm afraid no one will respond!"
"If it's just some Manichaeans causing trouble,"
"The imperial court can then send troops to annihilate them."
Although Wang Fu was skilled at flattery,
However, he was an ambitious but incompetent person.
They have absolutely no talent for governing!
He only saw these years,
The lives of ordinary people are getting worse year by year.
They then concluded that there must be something wrong with Cai Jing's reforms.
Therefore, they thought of abolishing Cai Jing and carrying out reforms.
Restore the laws of the previous dynasty.
That would allow us to restore the glory of the previous dynasty!
But this fellow didn't know,
Orders changed frequently
Instead, it caused the people even more suffering.
Liang Shicheng was naturally unaware of Wang Fu's inner thoughts.
He was also someone who only knew literature and calligraphy.
He was also completely ignorant of matters of governance.
One could only sense that Wang Fu was, after all, a Jinshi (a successful candidate in the highest imperial examinations).
Since he said that,
Then there's definitely no problem.
"Very well, tomorrow in court,"
“Then you should petition the sage,”
"Abolish Cai Jing's tea and salt laws!"
"Then order the remaining three prefectures to be on high alert,"
"This will also prevent the city from being looted by those rebels again."
"After we destroy the Liao Kingdom,"
"Then get rid of these troublesome bandits."
The group discussed it for a while longer.
Liang Shicheng then went into the palace first.
He had to go to Zhao Ji's side and let his influence spread.
Wang Fu and Tong Guan,
They then went off separately to inform their respective followers.
...
the other side,
After Tong Guan was led away by Ruan Xiaoer
Zhu Wu and the others then took Zhao Yuan with them.
They arrived at the Wuzhang River without incident.
Then they took a boat straight to Liangshan!
Everyone was worried about Zhao Yuan's injuries.
We were driving at high speed the whole way.
In the end, they actually arrived before Tong Guan's messengers at various checkpoints.
He then returned to Shandong.
That night,
Zhao Yuan then woke up.
