Chapter 62: A Play Within a Play III
What kind of system is this! Mama Dong coldly scolded the little eunuch, but still gestured and motioned for him to step forward.
The Queen Mother Lafayette is the most disciplined, so the people around her are very well trained, if it is not a major event, it will definitely not be such a gaffe.
The little eunuch seemed to know that he was in trouble, so he immediately knelt on the ground and respectfully kowtowed to Lafayette, and then immediately came to Mama Dong and whispered a few words.
Mama Dong was taken aback instantly, and her face changed: "Is this true?" “
The little eunuch immediately nodded: "Don't dare to hide it." “
Mama Dong didn't dare to delay, and immediately approached Lafayette's side and whispered a few words.
Seeing that Mama Dong, who had always served Lafayette the most, was so nervous, everyone looked at each other, and their faces unconsciously became solemn.
How many winds and waves has Lafayette experienced, after hearing Mama Dong's report, his face condensed: "How is the situation now?" “
Mama Dong said softly: "I don't know how, when the arsenal of the Nanda Battalion was blown up, General Du Xiao was leading people to count, I heard that he was injured, and now Grandpa Guo has rushed to the barracks." “
The people who could stay were all Lafayette's cronies, so naturally they were all shocked in an instant.
The arsenal of the North and South battalions exploded?
And it was when General Du Xiao counted the weapons!
Who doesn't know the generation of the Du family, the most decent is this Du Xiao General, born in a concubine, but very much loved by the grandfather of the country, because he can not inherit the throne of the prince of Xiangguo, he was incognito at a young age, with his own ability to take a martial champion, and later with the army stationed at the border, in the law and harassing the border of the Hehe people fought a few beautiful ambush battles, sealed a four-grade Shaowei general, scored the mansion to take his aunt out, Xiangguo Gong was very reluctant, often went to the general's mansion to live for a period of time.
In the Queen Mother Lafayette, she is more faceless than the unsuccessful prince.
The two princes were killed by His Royal Highness Regent one after another, although the eldest lady of the Du family was crying and grabbing the ground, but the people of Yongning Palace didn't seem to have much sadness when they saw Grandpa Xiangguo, and the people of Yongning Palace secretly muttered in their hearts that Grandpa Guo actually belonged to General Du Xiao in his heart to inherit the position of the prince of the world and revitalize the prestige of the family.
Now that General Du Xiao has suddenly had an accident, Grandpa Guo has rushed over, which is naturally a big deal! "Well, it's good to pass, and I will pick a few people from the imperial hospital to serve in a while, be cautious!" The Queen Mother Lafayette frowned and commanded.
Mama Dong nodded again and again.
Then, the Queen Mother suddenly turned her head, looked at Qiu Yebai and said coldly: "Qiu Yebai, do you have anything to say to the mourning family?" “
The Queen Mother's tone was a little moody, not too good, and immediately made everyone's eyes focus on Akiba Bai's body.
Qiu Yebai bowed slightly, raised his hand and said: "Back to Lafayette, although my subordinates have already asked people to follow and investigate a small case involving the four major camps of Gyeonggi, they will definitely not act so rashly and hurt the innocent." “
The Queen Mother narrowed her eyes slightly, and her gaze swept over Zheng Jun on the side: "Case, what case?" “
Zheng Jun lowered his eyes a little uneasily, and motioned to Lafayette, he really didn't know what case Qiu Yebai was investigating.
Then, he glanced at Akiba Bai with unpredictable eyes, this Akiba Bai is really not simple.
Qiu Yebai said calmly: "Back to Lafayette, seeing that the people of the wind department have disappeared for such a long time is not just hiding and doing nothing, they are the people of the celebrant after all, before the subordinates went to Gyeonggi to meet them, they have already investigated and got some news, this new batch of weapons in Gyeonggi Defense is problematic, it is a defective product, some people have embezzled and accepted bribes, colluded with the military department, and privately embezzled a lot of official silver for casting weapons, which is shoddy, and the North and South battalions are the first to replace this batch of weapons." “
As soon as everyone heard this, their faces changed in an instant.
What kind of small case is this, this is a big case that shakes the imperial court!
The words "military department", "weapons", "corruption and perversion of the law", and "shoddy", are connected together, and it is a big case involving hundreds of lives, and many people's black yarn hats will be dropped, and it is even enough to make the convicted person raid his family and exterminate the clan!
Since ancient times, there has never been a case involving a soldier who spares no life and no blood!
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, even though the original cold expression of the Queen Mother, who was accustomed to seeing the storms of the court, changed slightly, but she couldn't say whether she was happy or angry, and it became more and more unpredictable. "Oh, it seems that Admiral Qiu was really prescient, so who are the masterminds behind this matter?"
Qiu Yebai shook his head: "Now the evidence is unknown, Wechen doesn't dare to speculate, but the military department has always been the closest to the Eighth Prince, and the northern and southern camps are under the control of the Eighth Prince, and among the evidence collected by Wechen, there are many clues that show that the Eighth Prince is indeed a little nervous at hand, after all, he commands the southern bandit army, and I heard that this year's harvest is not very good, which has also affected the grain and grass in the army, and the Gyeonggi camp has not really used a knife for more than 100 years." “
When Zheng Jun heard this, his face changed drastically, he never thought that Qiu Yebai could find such a big handle.
As long as someone is not forcing the palace, and the Hehe people in the north are not coming, they will not use the Gyeonggi camp, and the Gyeonggi camp is more like a certain image, so the oil and water and treatment are much better than those of the border army, and what good knives and good armor must be close to the Gyeonggi camp first.
In the face of such a showy Gyeonggi battalion, it is indeed not impossible that the Eighth Prince, as the commander of the southern border army, will move the idea of embezzling the military funds of the Gyeonggi battalion, making the weapons shoddy, and subsidizing the border army with even money and grain.
Although this kind of thing sounds like a legal principle, it is close to human feelings, if the military department Shangshu does this, it may just be a crime of dereliction of duty, but as the commander of the border army, the eighth prince has to make people look sideways, and even very subtle, if you say that it is to the big picture, buying the border army, not to mention the deprivation of the power of the Gyeonggi battalion, it is not impossible to detain the crime of attempting rebellion.
Zheng Jun can think of it, and the Queen Mother Lafayette can naturally think of it, a strange smile appeared on her face, and she reached out and stroked the teacup: "Sure enough, it's a little interesting, Autumn Leaf White, the mourning family expects you to let the mourning family see what you want next, don't let the mourning family down." “
Autumn leaves arched his hand: "Obey the decree of Lafayette!" “
……
After Qiu Yebai, Zheng Jun and the others left, the Queen Mother rubbed her eyebrows, leaned back slightly on her shoulders, and leaned on the soft couch behind her: "Send the rest of the people away, Lao Luo and you stay." “
Mama Dong immediately nodded yes, and then did as the Queen Mother instructed.
Since the Queen Mother began to make Qiu Yebai kneel, Luo Yizheng packed up his things and went to the blue yarn cupboard next door, and this time he was summoned by his own Lafayette, so he came out with the medicine box again. "No need, the mourning family is just a little tired, you come over and press the mourning family!" The Queen Mother closed her eyes, but as if she knew what Luo Yi was about to do, she raised her hand to stop him.
Doctor Luo put down the medicine box in his hand, walked to the Queen Mother's side according to his words, and stretched out his hand to rest on her shoulder skillfully.
As if she had done it a thousand times, the Queen Mother leaned on his arms very naturally, closed her eyes, and sighed: "Children and grandchildren are useless things." “
The Queen Mother's words without a beginning or an end, Luo Yizheng naturally continued, he smiled, and while rubbing Lafayette's shoulder, he said: "It's useless, it's also Lafayette's blood relative, you don't take care of it and no one takes care of it." “
The Queen Mother didn't speak, just closed her eyes and recuperated after a while, and then said: "You have heard everything that Qiu Yebai said, do you think this person is credible?" “
Doctor Luo shook his head, stretched out his hand to rub her eyebrows, and said gently: "Weichen is a doctor, so naturally he doesn't know how to ....... "Don't talk to the mourners, this kind of tone is tired of hearing the mourners in this life." The Queen Mother interrupted him impatiently and coldly.
Luo Yizheng smiled, and his square face did not show fear, but said, "This person can be trusted." “
When the Queen Mother Lafayette heard this, she nodded and sighed: "The mourning family also thinks so, this person is smart and clever, but his mind is too heavy, and he is young, but the mourning family can't grasp him a little." “
On the side, Mama Dong sat on the pedal, personally took the white jade hammer and beat the legs for the Queen Mother, and said hesitantly: "Lafayette, Autumn Leaf Bai is already on the embroidery bed of His Royal Highness Regent, we can really use him, in case ......." "This is where he is smart, there are a lot of things today, he doesn't have to say it, he can also defend the past with clever words, but he said everything in detail, this is showing his loyalty to Yongning Palace, of course, this loyalty is what he must give, he understands very well that Baili Chu can see his value, except for his face, which is the weight of his eyes in the mourning family, he said it so clearly and clearly today, that is, he expects the mourning family to give him more power, and a master of ceremonies is afraid that he will not be able to satisfy him." "You mean ......." Mama Dong's eyes widened.
The Queen Mother sneered, her expression was cold: "This person was sent to the fence when he was young, and his desire to get ahead was very heavy, he and Zheng Jun were incompatible, among the two, there must only be one left in the future, if the mourning family used one word to describe this person, it was wolf ambition." “
Whether it is Fang Cai's words and the words that came out, or the matter of the Gyeonggi camp that suddenly broke out later, I am afraid that even today's summoning and interrogation in Yongning Palace, Qiu Yebai has already calculated.
Mama Dong couldn't help frowning: "Lafayette, you have been up and down in the harem for many years, naturally you won't be wrong, he can even calculate the family as a stepping stone, since we know that this person is not credible, how can we use it, the wolf is not familiar with it, in case he betrays our ......." "Family ......." The Queen Mother suddenly chuckled sarcastically: "He can have a concubine today, what did the family help him with, if he wants to shed blood for the Qiu family, this palace doesn't look down on such a stupid and loyal fool, as long as he knows the general situation." “
She tilted her face slightly slowly, so that Doctor Luo could press her more comfortably: "He is a person who understands, and what the Regency can give him is only because of what the Mourning family can give him, but the Regent has a lot of talents in his hands, and he would rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail, so what he does today is just to show the Mourning family that he is worthy of the Mourning family's choice of him, and there is nothing wrong with the wolf's ambition, and the greedy person has a weakness, and if he uses it well, he is a vicious wolf that can bite people to death." “
The Queen Mother leaned on Luo Yizheng's arms to find a more comfortable position, she closed her eyes, and curled the corners of her lips to reveal a cold smile: "The mourning family is looking forward to him biting off the necks of those who dare to offend the majesty of the mourning family one by one, and when the day of success, the mourning family will personally send this wolf on the road!" “
Mama Dong was silent, of course she knew that the Queen Mother wanted whose neck was bitten off the most, but ......, "What if Qiu Yebai doesn't have this ability?" "If you don't have this ability, then it's better to die, but it's just a beast." The Queen Mother flicked her nails lightly, and there was a grace and kindness between her eyebrows.
