Fang Zhengyan said suddenly: "It doesn't matter whether Gao Liangcheng can be found or not."

Zhang Bangchang suddenly stood up like a cat that stepped on its tail, and he wanted to slap his subordinate: "High performance is what His Majesty asked for by name. How dare you say it's not important during the negotiation?"Don't you want to live?

Fang Zhengyan said calmly: "Gao Liangcheng may have died in the valley, but the Gao family offended the emperor, and the whole family is guilty of the same crime. Please the whole Gao family come to Beijing with us to plead guilty!"

As soon as he said this, it was tantamount to directly solving the problem of high volume.

Why do you say that?

Duan Zhengyan wanted to keep a high number of people in the court of Dali Kingdom to check and balance the people sent by Song Dynasty, so he didn't hand over them.

Where does the high-volume power come from?

Is it Duan Zhengyan?

No!Gao Quancheng's source of power is the prestige of the powerful Gao family.

It doesn’t matter if you are high-scoring and hiding now, my Great Song Dynasty brought the whole Gao family to Bianjing, even if your high-scoring success reappears in the court of Dali Kingdom, are you still the Xiangguo of the past?

Chapter 849 A Corruption Debating Competition (Part [-])

The negotiators of Dali Kingdom all looked extremely ugly.

Only then did Zhang Bangchang regain his senses, and said with a smile, "Yes! The whole Gao family is still in Wangcheng, please send someone from your country to arrest them immediately!"

Everyone looked at Duan Zhengxing, waiting for his reply.

Duan Zhengxing said: "Angel, I have no right to give orders on this matter, I will ask your majesty for instructions."

"Okay, waiting for news from His Highness over there."

Fang Zhengyan added: "My lord, there is one more important matter."

"But it doesn't matter."

"We want to expand the field of discussion between the two countries."

"It's not a big problem, and we also hope to expand our discussion with China."

"But your country needs to accept handovers."

"That's no problem either."

Everyone is laughing at Wensong making a fool of himself at the banquet, but they don't know that it is Wensong who is really smart.

When the Song envoy came, the conditions must be very difficult.

As the minister of the Ministry of Rites and in charge of diplomacy, he knew that he had agreed to the Song envoy's request, and the blame would be on him afterwards.

After Duan Zhengxing went back, he told his father Duan Zhengyan about Zhang Bangchang's request.

Duan Zhengyan said: "They want me to completely break up with the Duan family and the Gao family."

"If the entire Gao family is handed over, Gao Liangcheng will inevitably rebel, and then Dali will be in chaos!" Duan Zhengxing said.

Naturally, Gao Liangcheng is not dead, not only is he not dead, Gao Liangcheng also has an elite teacher from Dali Kingdom in his hands.

After Gao Liangcheng was defeated by Wu Lin and fled, he reassembled some of the lost troops.

As for where to hide, even Duan Zhengyan didn't know.

But the letter must have been sent back.

Gao Quancheng is by no means an empty shell, and the Gao family is by no means an empty shell.

If it is really urgent, the Gao family will also use their influence and financial resources to recruit a group of soldiers and horses to fight directly.

You know, the Gao family was able to abolish the emperor of Dali back then. This is a real powerful family.

If Duan Zhengyan really issued this order, there must be civil strife.

Duan Zhengyan said: "At the moment, there is another plan."

Duan Zhengxing looked at his father suspiciously.

"Release the news that Da Song intends to capture the entire Gao family, and let the Gao family know that they will definitely not sit idly by and put pressure on them."

"What about us?"

"We're just one word."

"What word?"

"Procrastinate." Duan Zhengyan said.

"If it drags on, what if the Song army comes?" Duan Zhengxing asked, "There is still a Song army not far from the king. It is still unknown how many troops they have."

"Naturally, it is better. The longer the delay, the better. After a long delay, the Gao family couldn't bear it anymore. They recruited soldiers and horses. When the Song army came, the two sides fought again. We will be peacemakers."

Duan Zhengxing was stunned for a moment, then quickly said: "Father is still thoughtful."

In the next period of time, Duan Zhengxing asked Zhang Bangchang and Fang Zhengyan to eat, drink and have fun.

Either playing at the Erhai Lake, or going to Cangshan to be wronged, or looking for a few beautiful girls to discuss life, such a small life is very pleasant.

Both Zhang Bangchang and Fang Zhengyan knew that Dali Kingdom was playing tricks of procrastination. Zhang Bangchang didn't write to Fan Zongyin or Wu Lin, and just waited like this, intending to wait for a few months.

On the contrary, the news that the Song Dynasty envoy proposed to escort the entire Gao clan spread like wildfire, causing a great commotion in Yangzui Baa City.

Just as Duan Zhengyan predicted, how could the Gao family sit still and wait for death, they sent people to have countless secret talks with Duan Zhengyan.

After Duan Zhengyan vaguely revealed the helplessness of the current situation, the Gao family immediately began to secretly recruit soldiers and horses, just in case.

However, the Song Dynasty's request to expand the discussion field has received widespread support within the Dali Kingdom.

Even the use of banknotes has won the support of a considerable number of people.

Before the battle between Song and Li began, there were two factions in the Dali court who opposed the handover of banknotes and those who supported the handover of banknotes.

The faction opposed to handing over banknotes is in the majority, headed by the Gao family.

Those who support the handover accounted for a part, led by Duan Zhengxing.

But now, the number of people who oppose handing over banknotes to enter Dali Kingdom has significantly decreased.

What used to be opposition has become support.

This undoubtedly further increased the difficulty for the Gao family.

When the time came to December of the ninth year of Jingkang, the situation in Dali Kingdom entered a phased stable period.

But in fact, all parties are speculating whether this period of steady state will be the calm before the storm.

As for December, the Jiangdong case basically came to an end. The process of the local criminal and prison department was completed, the evidence listed by the Ministry of Household Affairs was also brought to justice, and the procedures of the Su Provincial Court were also completed.

Everyone was convicted, and the officials involved in the case were escorted to Tokyo City to wait until Dali Temple and the Ministry of Criminal Justice took the final disposition.

On the tenth day of December, Xiaoxue.

"What is that up front? Why are there so many people gathered?" Zhao Ning looked over there curiously and asked.

"This area is not far from the University of Tokyo. In front of it is Wang Taiweixiu's Guanhu Garden. It is open to the outside world on weekdays. You only need 20 yuan to go in and visit it." Jing Chao said, "It has snowed again recently. It is said that the winter scenery in Guanhu Garden is very beautiful.”

"Oh, which Wang Taiwei?"

"It's your uncle, officer."

Zhao Ning was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "I remembered, he likes to show off the most, and if he has some money, he would like to tell the whole world."

Gao Qiu immediately whispered in Zhao Ning's ear: "I also heard that Wang Taiwei likes to compare with others who is richer. I heard that the toilets in his house are all inlaid with gold."

Zhao Ning looked at Gao Qiu with a smile on his face, and asked curiously, "Oh, did you go to his house to take a shit?"

"I... I haven't been there, I just heard people say it."

Zhao Ning asked again: "It seems that most of them are young people?"

"It seems that some belong to the University of Tokyo." Gao Qiu rolled his eyes, "Officer, do you want to go and have a look?"

"Do you want me to see how luxurious Wang Zonglin's garden is, or do you really want me to see what happened?"

Being exposed by Zhao Guanjia on the spot, Gao Qiu immediately said: "Naturally, I really want to know what happened there."

"Let's go and have a look." Zhao Ning was really interested.

A smug smile gradually appeared on Gao Qiu's face: "Wang Zonglian, you are dead this time. Let the officials see your luxurious garden and how rich you are. Our Zhao officials like rich courtiers the most!"quack quack!

When Zhao Ning came to the garden, a few people came over, the leader was a middle-aged man with a smile on his face: "This official, do you have an invitation card?"

"Do you still want an invitation?"

"Today the garden is occupied by someone, and a wonderful debate is going on, you can't enter without an invitation, please forgive me."

Zhao Ning asked, "What debate?"

"It seems to be a debate about the need to execute corrupt officials."

Chapter 850 Song's Abolishment Faction? (Second more)

When Zhao Ning heard this, he immediately became interested.

Is this topic necessary to be brought up for discussion?

"How can I get in?" Zhao Ning asked.

"Who is the name of the official, if there is an owner who knows this garden, or the owner who knows what will happen today."

"The masters of this garden, we are naturally..."

Gao Qiu was about to speak, but was stopped by Zhao Ning, who asked, "Can Baiguan go in?"

The few people were stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Officer, the tickets are not expensive, only 20 Wen per person, you..."

Zhao Ning looked at Gao Qiu and said, "Give me the money."

"Oh." Gao Qiu reacted, and immediately took out money from his pocket. He took out ten 10-count notes and said, "Here."

Those few people were stunned again, is this really true?

100 strings!

100 guan is 10 wen.

And a ticket only costs 20 Wen.

"Can we go in?"

"There are a lot of people in there today. If there are a few officials, it's not too many, but it's best for the officials not to cause any trouble."

"Don't worry, we are all good people in our duty." Zhao Ning said cheekily.

After finishing speaking, Zhao Ning led the people inside.

There were indeed many people inside, mostly young people, and some middle-aged and old people.

Judging by clothes, there are no poor people here.

All were either richly dressed or elegantly behaved.

"Officer, I'll go around and check the situation first." Gao Qiu said.

"Go."

Gao Lian led the people and walked in first.

Walking through the promenade, the front view opened up.

There is actually a lake there, and there are pavilions and pavilions in the lake, decorated with white snow, it is more cold and lonely.

The lake was like a mirror, which was frozen and covered with a thin layer of snow.

Beside the lake, people gather among the pavilions, where there are stoves and banquets.

Zhao Ning did not expect that Wang Zonglin actually built such a garden in the capital.

Of course, it is no secret that officials and wealthy people in the Great Song Dynasty loved gardens.

Let’s just say that Luoyang city, like Bianjing, is full of gardens, basically built by retired officials.

After some gardens are built, in addition to enjoying themselves, they will also be open to the public to make money.

This is enough to show that the original Song Dynasty had a very high enthusiasm for business, probably the highest in history.

The previous Zhao officials did not restrict this kind of thing, they just built a garden.

The crowd between the pavilions has already discussed.

There was no strict formation, many people even sat on the ground, some stood, and some were drinking and listening intently as part of the crowd a little further away.
