649 Slap in the face
The next morning, Li Fengqian and others made a fuss about the matter of Taixu, who would have thought that when they just pointed the arrow at the ministry, Cen Zongguang, the secretary of the ministry, suddenly wrote a letter to ask for resignation.
His words are sincere, his demeanor is sad, and he said that he has failed the grace of the saint and that his majesty is not strict, which will lead to the sale of official positions for personal gain, which will cause the foundation of the imperial court, and he will not only implore Emperor Yongzhen to surrender his guilt, but also be willing to resign from the post of secretary of the ministry and ask himself for his guilt.
After the recital was presented, a wave stirred up a thousand waves.
The eldest prince and the others were all caught off guard, no one expected Cen Guangzong to dare to take this step, and after the next dynasty, the eldest prince and the fourth prince all walked out of the hall with gloomy faces.
After leaving the inner palace gate to avoid others, Xiao Xianhong's face immediately sank: "Cen Zongguang, how dare he?!"
He actually dared to write a letter to resign at this time, wasn't he afraid that his father would really take off his black veil when he was angry!?
Liu Chi and Chen Pinyun stood beside Xiao Xianhong, and their faces were not very good-looking.
Chen Pinyun said in a deep voice: "I really didn't expect that King Xiang would be able to persuade Cen Zongguang to take this dangerous move, and take a retreat to come in and take himself out of this matter." After speaking, he looked at Xiao Xianhong and said, "Your Highness, it seems that our previous plan has to be stopped." ”
They originally wanted to use Cen Zongguang to block the disaster, and then push King Xiang to the front of the people, and even he and Liu Xiangcheng had already left a back hand, so they could implicate Feng Qizhou as well.
But who would have thought that Feng Qizhou would directly send Luo Wanquan to the edict without a sound, and King Xiang and they reacted so quickly, the first day Emperor Yongzhen smashed Cen Zongguang's head in anger, and on the second day they persuaded Cen Zongguang to resign.
When Xiao Xianhong heard this, he kicked the flowers and grass in front of him: "Is it just that, don't forget, then Luo Wanquan is still in prison, if he spits out the news......"
"Your Highness!"
Liu Chi, who was originally silent, suddenly opened his mouth and interrupted Xiao Xianhong's obviously angry words.
Xiao Xianhong frowned tightly and glanced at Liu Chi, and saw him looking towards the other side, he looked up with Liu Chi's gaze, and saw Feng Qizhou walking towards this side not far away.
Remembering that Taixu's affairs were all handled by the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and he didn't even know whether Feng Qizhou had any evidence in his hands besides Luo Wanquan, Xiao Xianhong instantly retracted his previous complaints, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him when Feng Qizhou was about to leave.
"Lord Feng. ”
Feng Qizhou saw Xiao Xianhong calling him, so he stopped: "Is there something wrong with the eldest prince?"
Xiao Xianhong had a smile on his face: "Some time ago, I just got some Luofu Chun, all of which are good wines that have been treasured for several years, I heard that Lord Feng likes the things in the cup the most, I wonder if I can have the opportunity to invite Lord Feng to have a drink?"
Feng Qizhou's face showed a strange look when he heard this, and he glanced Xiao Xianhong up and down and suddenly spoke: "Great prince, Luo Wanquan is no longer in my hands." ”
The smile on Xiao Xianhong's face instantly froze: "What does Lord Feng mean by this?"
Feng Qizhou said lightly: "It's not interesting, I just want to say that the things that are too much are no longer in my hands, so it would be a pity that His Royal Highness Luo Fuchun used it to entertain me." ”
"You..."
Xiao Xianhong's face turned pale when he heard Feng Qizhou's meaning, and before he could speak, Feng Qizhou said to a few people: "If the eldest prince has nothing else to do, I will leave first, there are still things in the Metropolitan Procuratorate that I need to deal with." ”
After speaking, he nodded to Chen Pinyun and Liu Chi, turned around and staggered past Xiao Xianhong.
Xiao Xianhong looked at Feng Qizhou's back and was so angry that his chest rose and fell, and only after a while did he grit his teeth and say, "This horseman!!"
Proud of what?
Sooner or later, he's going to have to skin him!
Chen Pinyun has long known Feng Qizhou's temperament, and since they accepted the people of the Liu family, they have fought with Feng Qizhou openly and secretly.
Feng Qizhou's personality is indifferent and unapproachable, and he refuses to make friends with people in ordinary times, not to mention that when they are close to the Liu family, when Xiao Xianhong stepped forward just now, he expected that he would be closed, but Xiao Xianhong himself couldn't see the situation clearly, and in this case, he still wanted to start looking for flaws from Feng Qizhou.
And Liu Chi frowned tightly when he saw Xiao Xianhong, whose face was so dark with anger, that the eldest prince knew that their Liu family and Feng Qizhou had enmity, but he still acted like this, where did he put the Liu family?
Liu Chi suppressed the discomfort in his heart, remembered what Liu Xiangcheng had told him before, and couldn't help but whisper: "Your Highness, Feng Qizhou has no one in his eyes, His Highness doesn't need to worry about him, but the minister has something to ask His Highness, I don't know when His Highness is going to welcome Huiru into the mansion?"
Xiao Xianhong didn't expect Liu Chi to suddenly talk about this at this time, and immediately frowned.
Chen Pinyun said in a deep voice beside him: "Lord Liu, the matter that is too much has not been solved yet, there is a problem on Cen Zongguang's side, and it is an eventful time in the court, His Royal Highness is not good at handling the marriage at this time, and he doesn't want to wronged Miss Liu." Since the matter between Miss Liu and His Royal Highness has been booked, why should he care about this day or two, why not wait for the matter between the court and the central government to be resolved, and then let His Highness welcome Miss Liu into the mansion?"
"But..."
"Could it be that Lord Liu is willing to let Miss Liu's sedan chair into the house?"
Liu Chi's face was instantly ugly, and Xiao Xianhong couldn't help but be unhappy when he looked at Liu Chi's appearance.
If it was when he had nothing to do in peacetime, he would naturally be willing to be a beauty, and he wouldn't mind giving the Liu family a little more face, and let Liu Huiru enter the mansion as a side concubine to win over the Liu family, but now he is anxious because of too many things.
Luo Wanquan's side has not yet dealt with it, and Cen Zongguang on the side of the ministry suddenly made a fuss about his resignation, his two good brothers are staring at him all the time, if he shows even the slightest intention related to Tai Xu's matter, they will never let go of this opportunity.
At this time, Xiao Xianhong can't wait to be one person as three people, how can he still think about any woman.
And he had just been angry with Feng Qizhou, and seeing Liu Chi so blind, he couldn't help but say with a cold face: "Lord Liu, since I said that I would welcome Huiru into the mansion, I will definitely not regret it, but not at this time." Huiru is gentle and virtuous, and Lord Liu and Liu Ge are also smart people, so they must understand me and take the overall situation into account. ”
Liu Chi's rebuttal was blocked in his throat, and seeing that Xiao Xianhong's face had shown impatience, he took a deep breath and said, "This is natural. ”
Seeing Liu Chi leaving, Xiao Xianhong whispered: "This Liu family is really troublesome!"
Chen Pinyun frowned and looked at him: "I told His Highness a long time ago that the Liu family can be used but can't be too close, then Liu Xiangcheng's choice of His Highness is just a combination of interests, isn't it clear that he is a cunning person, why do you want to get involved with the woman of the Liu family?"
