Chapter 258: Giving Private Reasons for Public Reasons

Fu Xuan knew that this high hat was buttoned so that Sima Xi had nothing to say, and in fact, Sima Xi was indeed speechless, in the end, this evidence was still quite weighty, and it involved Wang Xie, even if he was clever and tongue-in-cheek, Sima Yi would definitely investigate thoroughly in Wang Xie's face, otherwise it would be difficult to calm Wang Xie's anger.

Seeing that the obstruction was getting closer and more fruitless, Sima Xi thought of obstructing the investigation, but he was not as good as Fang Xun and said: "Your Majesty, Fang Xun has the courage to ask Your Majesty to allow Fang Xun to take charge of this matter! This matter is submitted by Fang Xun, and it should also be submitted by Fang Xun, and as Sima Wang Ye said before, Fang Xun ...... is not an official or noble, and there are very few people involved, so he can be regarded as a neutral person for the time being!"

Fang Xun almost gritted his teeth in his heart and said the words "non-official and non-expensive", and he was angry in his heart, secretly swearing that he would make Sima Xi pay the price for this contempt.

"Wang Fangxun Gongzi is reasonable, then the right to investigate will be granted to Wang Fangxun of the Tongzhou Wang family. Sima Yi said, he knew in his heart that although Fang Xun was not an official or noble, as a side branch of the Langya Wang family, half of his identity was Wang Xie, and this arrangement also repaid the favor owed to Wang Xie before. He glanced up at Xie An and Wang Dao, and saw that the two of them raised their eyebrows slightly, and knew that they were quite satisfied with this decision, Sima Xi's face was naturally as blue as iron, but he always had to offend a faction, and after weighing, Sima Yi still obeyed Wang Xie's forces.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Fang Xun knelt down and said, "But I am afraid that although Fang Xun is ordered by the emperor, he has no power if he has no official, and he is afraid that the investigation involves the powerful, and he has more than enough strength to do so......" Fang Xun said and looked at Sima Xi meaningfully.

Sima Yi laughed and said, "You are asking Gu to reward you with an official who is easy to do, just say it, you don't need to be crepe." Lone will seal you as the six products of the imperial history, can be impeached illegally, this time specially ordered to carry out the investigation of Sun Li's case, the things that are investigated everywhere involved in the people do not need to be subject to the restrictions of the court, there is a catch, all directly report to Lone. ”

Sima Yi gave Wang Xie enough face this time, and he was busy kneeling down to thank the emperor, and Fang Xun's move happened to choose the opportunity to gain self-interest, although he had an official position at the moment, but the means of obtaining it were not orthodox and disgraceful, so Xie An and Wang Dao did not congratulate him in their hearts, and the people of the prince's faction were even more jealous and resentful of this, and sneered.

But Fang Xun was not afraid of what everyone felt in their hearts, and when the results of the emergency deliberations in this Taiji Hall were over, he held his head high, his spirit was bright, and he respectfully went to Xie An and Wang Daodao: "Uncle Xie, Uncle Wang, Fang Xun will not disgrace his mission, thoroughly investigate Sun Li's collusion, give Wang Su's son an explanation, and give Wang Xie Shijia an explanation." ”

Xie An didn't show a look of relief, he just looked at him indifferently, confided the word "good", and passed over him. Wang Dao and Fu Xuan followed behind him, as if Fang Xun had nothing to say, his expression was bleak, and he passed by, not to mention that he didn't have much to say.

How could Fang Xun not know in his heart, the three of them were angry that he was eager to invite merit, and cut off the clue that Sun Li had drawn out Sima Xi, he looked at the backs of the three of them brushing their sleeves away, the same dark blue robe shone against the sunlight, the lines on the robe were stacked like sparkling ripples, Fang Xun stood in the light of the hall was slightly dim, a trace of sourness suddenly rose in his heart, and his eyes were a little dazed by the sunlight outside.

In the palace, Sima Yi is still staring at the evidence of those secret letters, naturally he can't figure out why, his thoughts have been elsewhere, and now the central royal power is constantly weakening, Sima Yi is not good at politics, not very sensitive, but he is still clearly aware, but now he has to rely on the power of the princely faction and the Wang Xie faction, how to balance the two factions and weaken the two factions, it really makes him scratch his head.

More than when, Zhao Jinhao, the eunuch next to Sima Yi, quietly came down to the palace, approached Fang Xun's side, followed Fang Xun's gaze and looked at the backs of Wang Xie and the three of them as they walked away, patted Fang Xun on the shoulder, and said, "You are very smart, do it well, this is your time." ”

Fang Xun was distracted, and he was taken aback by his words, he had probably guessed the meaning of Zhao Zhongguan's words, but at this moment, when he didn't show his edge, he pretended to be stupid and said: "Fang Xun is stupid, and he still needs more guidance from Zhao Zhongguan." ”

Zhao Zhongguan showed a faint smile: "You are indeed smart, you will observe words and feelings, judge the situation, and grasp opportunities, when the struggle between the two factions in the DPRK and China is fierce, it is often the time when the third-party fisherman rises." And Your Majesty will support you. ”

Fang Xun hurriedly saluted and said: "Thank you Lieutenant Zhao for your advice!

Lieutenant Zhao respectfully replied: "The king's servant Yu Shi is serious, you and I are all worried for Your Majesty, and I wish the world a peaceful and prosperous world, and the people's livelihood is happy." After he finished the salute, he retreated to Sima Yi's side and said, "Your Majesty, it's time to eat, Concubine Er's place has been prepared, and if Your Majesty continues to read this secret letter, then the old minister will reply to Concubine Er's place to warm dishes for Your Majesty for the time being." ”

"It's already dinner time, don't you say it, Gu hasn't noticed it yet!" Sima Yi raised his head suddenly, only to see that Fang Xun was still waiting for His Royal Highness, and said with a smile, "Gu forgot, these secret letters have to be given to you to investigate the truth, Lieutenant Zhao, pass it on to him." ”

"Yes. ”

Fang Xun took the three pieces of paper that were as light as cicada wings, but he felt as heavy as receiving the burden of a thousand jun in his heart, and if he wanted to receive Jiuxi, he would bear its weight. Although it is a good thing for the snipe and the clam to compete for the benefit of the fisherman, but in the court and in the vanity fair, there is a good thing that is easy. Fang Xun knew that there was a road paved with thorns and flowers in front of him, and he wanted him to be used as a sword by Sima Yi. If he finds out that Sun Li did collude with the Xianbei people to betray the country and punish him, it will be tantamount to offending Sima Xi, Sima Xi and Sun Yuan will not spare him in the future, and if he can't find out why, he will offend Wang Xie even more, and he will lose the big tree in his own family from then on.

Sima Yi said lightly: "Wang Fangxun, no, it's time to call Wang Qing, this matter will be handed over to you, don't let Gu down." ”

"The minister is determined to live up to his mission. ”

"Yes, very good. Sima Yi brushed off the imperial robe and ordered sideways, "The matter of Lone in the Taiji Hall has ended, and the order is to go down to the place where Concubine Er is still preparing food, and Lone will pass." Lone almost forgot, Concubine Er is still your eldest sister, later Lone will inform her of the news of your increase in office, she will be very happy, she has always been in Lone's ear before the time to say that your younger brother is an official talent, now she can be at ease as she wishes, you, you, where is the blessing of cultivation, there is such a knowledgeable and delicate eldest sister. ”

"Your Majesty has overdone it. Fang Xun's heart trembled a little, it was because of the official award, and it was because of Concubine Er's face, and it was inevitable that there was a trace of sadness in his heart.

"Okay, I'm going to your eldest sister's place, why do you need to be alone?"

"Your Majesty doesn't dare, I wish Your Majesty and Concubine Er Niangniang good health, and Your Majesty will send your Majesty a holy car. ”

Sima Yi chuckled and stared at the kneeling Fang Xun, and strode towards the outside of the hall with his hand behind his back, and a few small eunuchs who served around the rest of the hall, for a while, a sense of loneliness that he had never felt before came from all directions, he slowly got up, standing alone, standing in the middle of the huge Taiji Hall, the bright red carpet was as new as fire, and his shadow was stretched by the sunlight from outside the house.
