Chapter 408: Partition

In the end, the quenching case was over, Xu Zhaoyi was cleared of charges, and the criminal department put all the responsibility on the deceased Concubine Du, which was always a little hasty. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

As a result, the ministers of the DPRK and China also discussed in private, saying that this matter had nothing to do with the Anguo Palace, and some even pointed the finger at Mrs. Anguo, who lived in a simple house.

Emperor Chongming wanted to calm down the rumors, and he paid special attention to the three princes under his knees, so his attention did not return to the matter of the household's greed for ink.

Since several years ago, Qian Weizhen began to spend money like water, and it was also very effective to deal with the great eunuch Xuanshuang beside Emperor Chongming.

Now that things are turning around, he secretly asks Xuanshuang to meet.

The two were drinking in a separate courtyard of the Qian Mansion, and Xuan Shuang quietly told him that Emperor Chongming had been secretly discussing this matter with Chen Rujun these days. Although Emperor Chongming was annoyed, he couldn't take care of one now, and the other also wanted to leave a little thin face for Qian Weizhen, a veteran of the two dynasties, and planned to trivialize.

Xuanshuang also mentioned that Emperor Chongming once talked to Chen Rujun that he had been on an errand under Qian Weizhen since he entered the office, and the two had some friendship between master and apprentice, and they didn't want to chase them to the end.

Such a forbearant and gentle style is consistent with Emperor Chongming's previous character. Qian Weizhen was suspicious, patiently watching coldly, and now the palace is full of singing and dancing, silk orchestra and singing strings, and always busy with the approaching canonization ceremony, so that it doesn't seem like someone wants to turn over the old accounts.

The big feast and small banquet for several days, during which there was the full moon wine of the five princes, as well as the Queen Mother's Qianqiu Christmas. King An's Mansion is still the holy family, and the rumors about Mrs. Anguo's suspected drug quenching case gradually died down, and then ushered in the rest of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The whole palace was full of flowers, and Emperor Chongming's face was filled with joy that was not common on weekdays, and his attitude towards the ministers was also friendlier than before, and he was a little slack about the government for the time being.

After taking the money Weizhen's ritual, Xuan Shuang showed his mouth again, and several letters of impeachment for the wrong amount of military salaries allocated by his subordinates were left behind. As soon as the mid-autumn of August passed, Emperor Chongming's attention should be on the envoys who greeted Jian'an and Kangnan, how could he have the energy to check the old accounts of the year, as long as Qian Weizhen was at ease.

Qian Weizhen was skeptical, but he didn't expect to hear the good news with his own ears this morning.

After the court meeting, Emperor Chongming appointed several courtiers to discuss matters, and Qian Weizhen was also among them.

Because Emperor Chongming was talking with Chen Rujun in the imperial study, Qian Weizhen had to wait under the porch outside. Xuan Shuang understood that he was getting older, and gave him some convenience, and quietly took him to the side hall and asked him to stay for the time being.

In the past, as an important minister of the first emperor, Qian Weizhen came to the imperial study more than once to discuss matters, and he was quite familiar with the pattern here. Raise your eyes and look at the room, you will know that this side hall is actually connected to the imperial study, is separated by the partition of faded lacquer nanmu, and there is a slip of ink and ink long silk hanging outside, and there is actually another secret door under the long silk, which is convenient for Emperor Chongming to enter and exit, and it is also for the emergency situation to escape from here.

The wooden partition is not soundproof, Qian Weizhen knows that as long as he approaches the partition, he can listen to what Emperor Chongming and Chen Rujun discussed. Bixuanshuang was forced to accompany him, making him itchy and unbearable.

Qian Wei really thought about what reason to take to open the Xuanshuang, but the little eunuch hurriedly came back and forth, and the dress that Emperor Chongming was going to wear at the banquet on the fifteenth night tomorrow was missing a beeswax button under his arm.

The beeswax clasp was inlaid with gold, and if it was short, it could not be completed in a hurry. Xuanshuang stood up in a hurry, wanted to follow the little eunuch down to check, and repeatedly told Qian Weizhen not to go around, so he stayed here and waited for the summons.

Qian Weizhen nodded busily, and when Xuanshuang took one step in front of him, he took three steps and two steps on his back foot, and approached the partition of the faded lacquered nanmu, and he could hear the sound inside, it was Emperor Chongming who was discussing with Chen Rujun.

The two spoke slowly, Qian Weizhen listened attentively, although the voice was not clear, he listened to most of it.

I only heard Emperor Chongming sigh and said: "When the water is clear, there are no fish, I am originally from the household, how can I not know this truth." Which of the six yamen is carefully investigated, and it is difficult to escape the blame for each one, but it is just a thin mud. I saw that Qian Wei was really arrogant earlier, so I had the intention to suppress it, but now I need him to balance it with Xu for three years. ”

When Qian Weizhen heard the mention of himself, his ears were naturally pricked up, and he only waited for Emperor Chongming's next words.

I only heard Chen Rujun say: "Earlier, the household department was really not like words, but this year when he repaired the cloud pavilion, he shirked the blame, and it was clear that he was using the ministry as a soft persimmon." Encountering the fiery temper of the military department, the pension is not enough and punctual, where dare to owe a little star. ”

It was Emperor Chongming's low voice again: "It is precisely for this matter that now that Xu has been a new official for three years, the military department has made a little too much trouble." If someone else takes over the household, there is no confidence in money. ”

Having said this, it was clear that he had the intention to let go of himself, Qian Weizhen was so excited when he heard it, and the blood all over his body rushed to the top of his head, and he quietly lifted the corner of the ink and wash silk, wanting to hear it more clearly and appropriately.

Through the gauze fan of the partition, Qian Weizhen could see Emperor Chongming sitting on the top, Chen Rujun standing opposite him, and said shallowly: "Xu Sansan is the queen mother's person after all, and he is separated from His Majesty, and now he is a little dependent on the old and selling the old." According to the minister's meaning, instead of holding on to the household, it is better to cultivate his own henchmen and firmly grasp the military department is fundamental. ”

Emperor Chongming sighed faintly, and said in a sullen voice: "I don't mean that, now the border city is still the most important barrier, but Li Zhifang can hardly have the responsibility of a brother-in-law. It's hard to find another general Su who makes the enemy fearful. ”

Chen Rujun also sighed softly: "Talents can be met, handsome talents are hard to find, this kind of thing is not urgent." Your Majesty doesn't have to worry, Li Zhifang will probably always be able to stand in the border city. On the side of the household department, it is necessary to beat it well, so that Qian Weizhen can really recognize the situation, and naturally be grateful to His Majesty. ”

Before I heard Emperor Chongming's words, there was a slight sound of footsteps outside from far and near, which should be Xuanshuang going and returning.

Qian Weizhen didn't dare to listen anymore, so he quickly flattened the curtain and sat back on the chair against the wall with another big stride, exactly the same as when Fang Caixuan wanted to leave.

Xuanshuang's thick eyebrows were lightly raised, and he saw that the ink and wash silk on the other side of the partition was still wandering with the wind, and he didn't say anything in his mouth, but only said stupidly: "The little minions panicked when they encountered something, and the button fell in the box of the dress. ”

"How many things can they go through? How can the chief manager be so calm", Qian Weizhen smiled like Maitreya Buddha, just right to pat Xuanshuang's ass.

Xuanshuang listened comfortably and beckoned the little eunuch to serve tea. The two drank tea and waited, and waited for about half a pillar of incense, but it was Chen Rujun who retired, and Emperor Chongming Xuan Qian only met him.
