This meeting was a big deal, the emperor wondered, isn't this the young master of the Zhao family?As a result, when I asked, I found out that his surname was not Zhao, but that he came from an ordinary family of ordinary people.

But in the world, there are two people who look so similar, it is impossible not to make people suspicious.After ordering people to investigate, it was found out that this is the youngest son of the Zhao family, but he was sent out of the Zhao family in order to save his life and entrusted to a family of ordinary people to raise him.

It's just such an unfortunate thing in this world that he was ordered not to join the army, but the passion in his blood couldn't be hidden, he would go to the battlefield to fight if he sneaked around, he was an iron-blooded man.

The head of the Zhao family at that time, after hearing the message from the emperor and seeing his youngest son in the main hall, knew that the crime of deceiving the emperor could not be pardoned, so in order not to implicate the entire Zhao family, he asked for death.And the youngest son who was confused after learning about his own life experience and the reasons for these encounters, understood that his appearance had already killed his father, and maybe also killed his elder brother who didn't know about it, so he resolutely killed himself and returned Leave a good name as a loyal man.

It is also like this, the existence of the Zhao family, for the royal family, is not something worth guarding against, it seems to be loyal and trustworthy.

What's more, in the current era, wars can happen anytime and anywhere, there are too many factors of instability, the Song Dynasty is in danger, military generals are rare talents, let alone loyal and famous generals like the Zhao family , it is impossible for Da Song to abandon it directly, at least when he is employing people now, it is impossible to allow the Zhao family to be destroyed.

The emperor heard that the matter was a little serious, and couldn't help frowning, but then again, although the value of the Zhao family is very high, the current troop mobilization and its troubles, Song's military strength and national strength are not sufficient.As the saying goes, good steel should be used wisely. If it is just for one Zhao family, it is not cost-effective to mobilize troops and spend a lot of national power and troops.

So, the emperor is hesitating, considering the pros and cons.

Zhao Mingge raised his head quietly, and seeing the emperor's expression, he knew that this matter was not so easy to handle, but he couldn't just give up like this, after all, the Zhao family was still waiting for him.

Zhao Mingge bowed his head again: "Report to Your Majesty! The old minister implores Your Majesty to send troops to suppress these gangsters, not only for the Zhao family, but also for the country and tomorrow of the Song Dynasty, Your Majesty!"

The emperor raised his hand: "Zhao Aiqing, let's calm down first, what do you say?"

Zhao Mingge said eloquently: "Your Majesty, think about it. My Zhao family is just a military general. I only go out to train soldiers on the battlefield. I have jurisdiction over the local area and will not interfere with the affairs of the yamen. I am also kind to people on weekdays, and I can do things well. To be honest, I will never offend anyone for no reason, let alone forge such a deep hatred. If it is a robbery, our Zhao family has neither gold nor silver treasures, nor any treasured treasures... Moreover, they are like this Someone who planned to invade my Zhao family, neither for money nor for revenge, then it is very likely..."

Zhao Mingge paused, bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me for my words that offended me..."

The emperor raised his hand, signaling him not to say any more: "Zhao Aiqing, I understand what you mean, you mean, this group of people have the intention of treason?"

The words have already been pointed out here, and the meaning is already very clear.It's good to just point to the end of some words, it's not convenient for Zhao Mingge, and he doesn't want to speak so clearly, too many words can easily cause trouble.

Zhao Mingge bowed: "Yes..."

The emperor pursed his lips and fell silent.Zhao Mingge stood dazedly by His Highness, not knowing whether he should speak at this time, nor what to say, just quietly waiting for the emperor to think in his heart.

After a long time, the emperor said slowly, "Zhao Aiqing, you said that this group of people intends to rebel, but what evidence do you have?"

Such a serious crime of treason is not something that ordinary people can casually frame. The emperor judged Zhao Mingge not to dare to speak nonsense.But sending out troops is a big deal. Even if you don't have a lot of troops, it's a bit troublesome to dispatch troops, especially in the current environment, if you want to send out troops on such a large scale, It will inevitably hurt some vitality.There were many crises inside and outside the court, and the emperor dared not send troops in vain, otherwise, it would be the great Song Dynasty that would move.

Zhao Mingge naturally has a stake in this, but there is really no other way except to ask the emperor to send troops, he can't just wait for the Zhao family to be wiped out, no!What face is there to go down to Huangquan and explain in front of the ancestors?Besides, although this group of assassins are people from the Jianghu, since even the officials of the imperial court dare to kill the family directly, why not dare to do it?I'm afraid it will be used by villains at that time, and it will threaten the court and the country of the Song Dynasty even more.

Therefore, although Zhao Mingge deliberately exaggerated his words, it was not completely unreasonable, and he didn't care about it at all. Apart from his selfish desire to save the Zhao family from fire and water, he also had considerations for the stability of the Great Song Dynasty.

"Returning to Your Majesty, although my Zhao family is not a famous family, nor is it a noble family, but a generation of military generals, at least it can be regarded as an official in the court. Officials who serve. And this group of people, completely disregarding, want to murder the court officials, one is not for money, and the other is not for revenge, so I dare to ask Your Majesty, what is their purpose, they are so cruel to my Zhao family ?”

After finishing speaking, Zhao Mingge bowed down again, lowered his head, and waited for the emperor's reply.

Zhao Mingge added another sentence: "If Your Majesty still has some doubts, all the killers who conspired in our Zhao residence have been cleaned up, and the corpses are still there, including the guests who were guests in my residence that day, and they can all testify Yes." It's just that what Zhao Xiong didn't say was that those guests were stunned...

The emperor was silent, tapping his fingers back and forth on the handle of the dragon chair, thinking carefully in his heart.Zhao Mingge just bowed and bowed like this, not daring to raise his hands to straighten up, just quietly waiting for the emperor to make a decision.Zhao Mingge knew that the words had reached this point, and it was impossible for the emperor to just ignore them.

"Forget it," the emperor sighed, raised his eyes, looked at Zhao Mingge, and continued: "Zhao Aiqing, tell me, what do you want me to do?"

With joy and gratitude in Zhao Mingge's eyes, he immediately kowtowed again, and said: "The old minister implores Your Majesty, send a thousand troops, and go to the Daming Mansion with the old minister to wipe out these killers, so as to strengthen the Song Dynasty!"
