Chapter 59: Take back the oracle
He looked down at me sternly: "Lingyu, you just handed over the matter of a thorough investigation of the rebellion to Wei Jingyuan, the current minister, the head of the Wei family?! Don't you know what a good opportunity this is for our Qi family to seize power?"
"A chance to seize power?" I looked at my second brother in confusion. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info He glanced at me and seemed to say, "Are you so stupid that you can't help it?"
"This case is like a fire in the hands of the Wei family, and it is still too late to fall, how can it be taken over? Although the impact on the Qi family is not good, it is less than one-tenth of the Wei family. Everyone knows that although the surname of this dragon city is Qi, it is the Wei family who can shake the entire Wolong Valley by turning the clouds and rain. By taking over the case by the brother, not only can he push the boat down the river to sell personal favors to the Wei family, but also take the opportunity to let the Qi family regain the attention of the people in Wolong Valley, and the Qi family will 'return' to the world, which not only confirms the previous Wei family's domineering rhetoric, but also allows the people to see the Qi family's determination to regain its strength. ”
"What's the matter??
It was his dragon, with a bundle of bamboo slips in his mouth.
I was stunned for a moment in the words of my second brother, and when I think about it, it is indeed a great opportunity. Just, wouldn't Wei Fox be too pitiful? Uh! I was taken aback by the idea that suddenly popped up by myself, and quickly shook off the thought in my mind, I threw an admiring look at my second brother: "It's really amazing, how good would it be if it was my brother who was drawn to the position of city lord in the first place!"
"What are you talking about?" The second brother couldn't help but stuff the bamboo slip in Xiaolong's mouth to me, and he didn't care if I could hold it in my hand: "Lingyu, in fact, it is the best choice for you to be the city lord." The most direct benefit is to let the Wei family despise the enemy. This is a collation of the results, I believe you are generally clear. ”
"Ahem!" I couldn't help coughing, this is my brother!
After that day, Wei Jingyuan said that he was sick and was in the minister's mansion, and while trying to find a way to appease the rebels, I also fought wits and courage with the ministers at the court meeting. Despite this incident, the autumn festival was still held as usual, and I wrote an edict to Wei Jingyuan to send more people to patrol, and even used the dragon team.
Unexpectedly, this proposal was the icing on the cake for this year's autumn festival, and the dragons of the dragon team became the "cute pets" at the autumn festival, and people from all villages came to watch and ask for good luck. What was originally a one-day and one-night autumn festival has turned into a grand festival with brilliant lights and crowds for three days and three nights.
For such an unexpected grand festival, I didn't want to take a kick in it, I just wanted to find out as soon as possible that there should be those dog officials who flouted the law of the king. I haven't forgotten that I was able to stand here alive because of Wei Fox and Feng Qingyi's standing up and protecting each other. Now, one of them has a serious arm injury and disfigurement, and the other is still lying in bed and can't get out, only a little flesh wound, how can I be embarrassed to go out and have a good time?
I tried my best to help Feng Qingyi win the post of Imperial Doctor at the court meeting, as for Wei Jiang, Xiao Niang, I took into account that his performance was not bad several times in the game, so I also gave him a big official position.
The second brother is intensively checking the ministers related to the rebel army, and I also sent all the secret information from Fan Ren to him. It should be easy to investigate, because they have direct contact with the rebels, and it is easier to find evidence.
He almost didn't have much effort to catch a string, there were as many as five or six officials, and Zhu Changqing, who scolded Fan Ren for being rude in the Longshou Pavilion that day, was naturally on the list.
Every two days, the second brother will ask Xiaolong to send a letter over, I looked at his letter and marveled that I had such a genius second brother, and then used these as my motivation to motivate myself to suppress the ministers and strive to be a city lord.
The letter sent by Xiaolong today is very short, and the general content in it is that Neiying has been arrested, but the case on the side of the righteous army has encountered some trouble. Han Yan once said that those officials who did a lot of evil and disregarded people's lives had difficulty in making progress because the rebels did not cooperate with the investigation.
There are other troubles that the second brother did not write in the letter, and just received the letter from the second brother in the morning, and the second sister-in-law entered the palace at noon.
As soon as she saw me, she knelt down: "Sister, you take back the oracle to let Lingyu investigate the case! sister-in-law begs you!" I was so shocked by her that I didn't come back to my senses for a long time, and I pulled my sleeve tremblingly.
I hurriedly went to help her: "Sister-in-law, what are you doing here? With that, I motioned for Miaoyan to pull her up with me.
"If you don't promise your sister-in-law to take back the holy oracle, your sister-in-law won't get up, I'm going to kneel here!" she refused to get up, and her soft face was full of pear blossoms.
Miao Yan looked at me with a bitter face, and I said with my mouth to Fan Ren Fan Yi in the back: Take it away forcibly. Miao Yan nodded and retreated, and the twin brothers immediately stepped forward to "lift" the second sister-in-law into the inner hall.
The twin brothers then retreated outside to stand guard. I immediately instructed Miao Yan to boil a few eggs, and then I went to appease my second sister-in-law, who was stunned by what had just happened.
"Sister-in-law, Dragon City has been very unpeaceful recently, and it is very dangerous to talk outside. Especially if you take back such an important word as the holy oracle of investigating the case, once it is listened to by those who have a heart, and then add fuel and vinegar to tell those rebels who are locked up in prison, I and the minister, the second brother, my father, and Feng Qingyi, who is still lying in bed, all of our hard work will be in vain. In order to avoid people's eyes, if you have anything to say to me here. ”
She soothed in my voice, and in the blink of an eye, she cried pitifully: "Sister, if you don't take back the holy oracle, you will kill your second brother and kill a hundred and ten people in the whole house!"
"Uh, sister-in-law, don't be in a hurry to explain it slowly, okay?" I rubbed my forehead helplessly, she was crying, if I waited for a while, my eyes were red and swollen, maybe I would be poked in the back by my father.
She was about to speak, but she felt it in her wide sleeve as if she remembered something: "Sister-in-law brought these things, sister, take a look." ”
A moment later, there were three delicate little things in front of me: a folded kite, a ragdoll doll, and a child's dragon face. "What's wrong with these?" I picked up one of them and looked.
Then, I froze. The puppet doll in his hand was poked with a hole in his forehead, as were his hands and feet, and a line of words was written in cinnabar on his back: If you check it again, this is how the people in this house will end.
Looking at the kite and the dragon face, the kite appears to be intact, but when unfolded, it has been slashed with a sharp blade, and there are also threatening words written on it that can be creepy at a glance.
