Chapter 34: Three Birds with One Stone
Two eunuchs stepped forward and dragged Yi Yongzhen, who was as limp as mud, out of the Daqing Palace. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Just when everyone thought that the matter was over, they heard Chai Chen say again: "Father, the son still has something to do!" ā
The official nodded and motioned to continue.
Chai Chen said: "Fei Zhenghao, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, is also to blame!" ā
When the official family heard this, they looked at Fei Zhenghao, and their faces became more and more gloomy.
"Father, three years ago, Menxia Province ordered the construction of moats in the three border cities of Shuozhou, Yizhou and Cangzhou. A year ago, he ordered the Yanmen Pass city wall to be expanded by 30 miles. ā
Chai Chen strode up to Fei Zhenghao: "The Ministry of Household has already allocated the funds for the construction to the Ministry of Industry, but the moat of the three states of the border pass has not been seen for a long time, let alone the city wall of Yanmen Pass. Half a year ago, Zhong Pengju, the governor of Shuozhou, even supervised the construction of the moat. ā
He turned around, pointed directly at Fei Zhenghao with the jade wat in his hand, and said fiercely: "The battle of Shuozhou is not a crime of war, and traitors have misled the country!" ā
It is not a crime of war, and traitors mislead the country.
These eight characters, the words are sonorous and loud.
Fei Zhenghao was about to argue, but saw Gao Song gently shaking his head at him.
The official looked at Chai Chen's back with a complicated expression.
There was silence in the court for a while, and after a while, I heard the official family say: "Fei Zhenghao neglected his duties, so that he delayed the fighter plane and removed him from the post of secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Officials thoroughly investigated the matter on the same day." If there is nothing to do, then retreat. ā
No official dares to speak.
ā¦ā¦
In the Wende Palace, the fragrance of tea is lingering.
The official sat behind the bookcase, and the sunlight shone in through the window behind him, backlit it, so that Chai Chen in front of him could not see his expression clearly.
He looked at Chai Chen, who was calm and calm, and many thoughts flashed in his heart.
Did Wang Miao teach him to do this?
No, it won't.
Yi Yongzhen is Wang Miao's right-hand man, and before the last step, he will never abandon Yi Yongzhen.
However, the matter of weapons was discovered by the secret guards under his own order, and absolutely no one in the court knew that he knew about it.
Puzzled, the official family finally spoke: "Do you know that Yi Yongzhen is your grandfather's beloved apprentice, and Zhuo Shoucheng is a member of the Gao family?" ā
Chai Chen was a little inexplicably gloomy.
- My father asked this question because he felt that he had other plans.
He said calmly: "Erchen only knows that Zhuo Shoucheng was defeated, but it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice." And Yi Yongzhen and Fei Zhenghao brought disaster to the country and the people, and they should be punished for their crimes. ā
After that, he was even more indignant in his heart: Could it be that in his father's heart, he was actually a timid person?
The official didn't know what he was thinking in his heart, but he saw the person in front of him raise his eyes and look at him, and there was a long-lost fire in his eyes, so bright, so bright, so bright, that he suddenly remembered a person.
Chai Chen said loudly: "They are the beloved disciples of the Wang family, or the beloved generals of the Gao family, the surname Chai is in this world, why should the sons and daughters have scruples?" ā
He also said: "As long as you are worthy of the people's society, you should have no hesitation!" ā
The official family was also stunned.
After a long time, he stepped forward and patted Chai Chen's shoulder, and sighed with a smile: "Chen'er, you can step down." ā
"The retainers obey."
When he stepped out of the Wende Palace, Chai Chen looked at the clear sky and breathed a long sigh of relief. I couldn't help but laugh, and my heart was unprecedentedly happy.
ā¦ā¦
Twilight spreads deep in the backyard of the Wang family.
In some places, the grass is tall and dense; In some places, the bellflower is in full bloom at will. A bush there, a cluster here.
It's as if a corner of the mountain has been cut off and moved here.
Although the vernal equinox has passed, the evening air is still full of coolness.
Next to the pond, Wang Miao fished silently.
Wang Chengye stood aside and carefully informed his father of what happened in the court today.
- "We have a Shangshu on our side, and it is the Nine Clans!" What about the Gao family? However, he lost a secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and he was dismissed, and Zhuo Shoucheng did not move. I really lost my wife and broke my soldiers! ā
He said it with a heartache.
Wang Miao didn't hear it.
Wang Chengye asked again: "Dad, this kid is becoming more and more reckless, do you want to mention him?" ā
Wang Miao didn't look at him either, just stared at the calm pool. The slanting sun shone on his high cheekbones, and the shadows were distinct, making it even more gloomy.
After a long time, he said, "The eyes of the rat are inch-eyed." ā
"What Daddy said is very true," Wang Chengye nodded busily and agreed: "Chai Chen's eyes are bright!" He only cares about currying favor with the official family, but he doesn't know, if our Wang family falls, why should he fight with the Gao family? ā
At this time, the fishing rod in Wang Miao's hand shook rapidly, and he hurriedly raised the rod, which was a fat grass carp.
Quickly reel in the rod, take the fish, and put it in the barrel beside you.
"Chai Chen, this kid, is a mouse!"
Wang Chengye was still muttering.
Wang Miao recruited him and said, "Chengye, come here." ā
When the other party heard this, he walked up to him.
"A little more." Wang Miao motioned for him to lean into his ear.
Wang Chengye thought that his father had a secret to order, so he lowered his head and leaned over.
- "Smack! ā
Wang Miao slapped him with his backhand with all his might.
He was a military general when he was young, and now he is still old and strong, beating Wang Chengye sideways, slipping under his feet, and falling into the pool.
Fortunately, the water by the pool was still shallow, and only half of the clothes were wet.
Wang Miao still felt that he was not relieved enough, so he stepped forward and pressed Wang Chengye's head with one hand, pressing him dead in the water, his eyes were ruthless.
He didn't let go until Wang Chengye was about to lose his breath.
Wang Chengye hurriedly took a big breath, and the whole person was stunned: "Daddy......?" ā
"It's you!"
Wang Miao said fiercely: "Ning Sheng is a loser, Mo Sheng is stupid and dull." You're stupid and dull, if it weren't for you, I'd have drowned you! ā
Wang Chengye looked at his father blankly.
Wang Miao continued: "Do you know that Chai Chen's plan is to kill three birds with one stone. ā
"Three birds with one stone?"
"He must have learned from somewhere, the official family already knew about it, Zhuo Shoucheng couldn't get rid of it, and Yi Yongzhen couldn't keep it, so it was better to strike first."
Wang Chengye was puzzled: "Since he has learned, why don't you discuss with us?" ā
"What is there to discuss with you stupid man? He didn't tell me, probably because he was afraid that I wanted to protect Yi Yongzhen. ā
Wang Miao took a breath and said: "Don't avoid relatives in the internal complaint, expose Yi Yongzhen in order to win the trust of the official family, this is the first bird." The complaint does not avoid suspicion, and incidentally implicates Fei Zhenghao of the Ministry of Industry, which is the second bird. ā
After saying that, he suddenly laughed, his cheekbones shrugged one after another, like a demon, and he laughed terribly.
After laughing for a while, he said: "The third bird is the most wonderful - to defend Zhuo Shoucheng and separate Zhuo and Gao." ā
Wang Chengye disagreed: "Zhuo Shoucheng has followed the Gao family for more than 30 years, how could he be alienated because of Chai Chen's words or two?" ā
The Gao family should have exposed Yi Yongzhen to protect Zhuo Shoucheng, but because of Fei Zhenghao's incident, they were timid, and asked Zhuo Shoucheng how not to be cold. If Gao Fuwu is still here, things will still have a turning point......"
Wang Chengye still didn't believe it: "The child heard that Zhuo Shoucheng was also loyal to Gao Song. ā
"Hmph," Wang Miao pursed his lips and said disdainfully, "no matter how loyal he is, it is useless." Although Gao Song is a little smart, he is narrow-minded, and he will definitely suspect that Zhuo Shoucheng was impressed by Chai Chen's bribery, and then he became more and more estranged. ā
"I see!" Wang Chengye suddenly realized.
Wang Miao said again: "Besides, if Chai Chen doesn't even dare to move a dog of the Wang family, how can the official family rest assured that the world will be handed over to him?!" ā
Wang Chengye sighed: "It's just that the post of secretary of the military department has a lot to stake, which is really a pity." ā
Wang Miao smiled and said: "It's okay, the Zhao family was afraid that our power was too wide, and now they are losing an arm, just to show weakness." ā
He also instructed: "You let people take the lead in the table, and discuss Peng Cheng's appointment as the secretary of the military department, and I will give a big gift to Zhao Tao." ā
Peng Cheng is the current squire of the military department and a confidant of Zhao Tao.
Wang Chengye gave his hand and said goodbye: "The child will do it immediately." ā
After walking a few steps, he suddenly heard Wang Miao's maniacal laughter behind him.
ā¦ā¦
"Uncle," in the Cining Palace, Chai Yu asked Gao Song, "Do you want someone to make a performance for Zhuo Shou?" ā
"What's the use of playing now?"
Gao Song said coldly: "Since we chose the Ministry of Insurance, he was an outcast, he himself knows it, and now that he is not dead, how can he be heartless?" ā
"It's a pity to lose Shuozhou." Chai Yu sighed.
"It's a pity?" Gao Song shook his head and said: "
