Chapter Seventy-Four: Knocking on the Mountain and Shaking the Tiger

On the second day after successfully handling Mu Yuanyuan's case, Qin Huaiyu left Qidu with Mu Yuanyuan, went back to Licheng, and came to Qidu, Qin Huaiyu never went to see his mentor Zhao Tingde.

It's not that Qin Huaiyu doesn't want to go, it's that he doesn't dare to go.

He told Leng Manyan all the things, if he dared to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to find a smoke, then Qin Huaiyu would be really fat.

After sending Qin Huaiyu and Mu Yuanyuan away, Leng Manyan did not stay idle, but found Long Xiaofeng and showed all the papers written by Qin Huaiyu to Long Xiaofeng.

In the lobby of the front hall of the Shenduan Mansion, Long Xiaofeng looked at the thick stack of paper-like papers in his hand, his face was as cold as ice in winter, "What a Zhao Tingde, he dares to eat like this, what a dog." ”

"What do you decide now?" Leng Manyan asked Long Xiaofeng funny.

"Decide? Of course, it was to present the paper to my father. Long Xiaofeng said, grabbed the paper and rushed to the palace to denounce Zhao Tingde to vent the hatred in his heart.

But Leng Manyan stood up and stopped Long Xiaofeng.

Long Xiaofeng was puzzled, "What are you stopping me for?" ”

"Don't worry, you take a closer look at the paper, Qin Huaiyu wrote very clearly, Zhao Tingde was only involved in the Ji family case, he is not the real murderer, if we report him now, the really powerful person behind him will take him as a backing." Leng Manyan explained to Long Xiaofeng without hurry.

After Long Xiaofeng heard Leng Manyan say this, he immediately calmed down.

Leng Manyan is right, the purpose of catching Qin Huaiyu is to ask for directions by throwing stones and opening a breakthrough in the Ji family's mystery case, and now that this breakthrough has been found, you can't startle the snake.

Sitting back in the chair, Long Xiaofeng handed her back the pleadings written by Qin Huaiyu, "Then what are you going to do next?" ”

"Give this paper to Zhao Tingde." Leng Manyan said lightly.

"What? Return the paper to Zhao Tingde? Are you crazy? It took so much effort to get these things, how can you get them to him for nothing? The dragon shouted wildly.

Leng Manyan shook his head and pushed the paper in his hand aside.

Standing up and walking outside the door with his hands in his hands, Leng Manyan looked at the gradually gloomy sky, and sighed in a low voice, "It's going to rain this day!" As soon as it rains, the weather is wet, and maybe snakes and rats will be all over the mountain. ”

"You...... Do you want to lure the snake out of its hole? Long Xiaofeng exclaimed.

"No, it's to knock on the mountain and shake the tiger first, if you don't shake this paper tiger first, the snake behind it will definitely not come out so quickly." Leng Manyan shook his head and explained to Long Xiaofeng.

Long Xiaofeng nodded clearly.

Leng Manyan walked back to the table and pinched the paper into his hand, "This paper, I copied it overnight last night, Qin Huaiyu's paper is still pressed in my study, if Zhao Tingde knew that Qin Huaiyu had made a move, he would definitely send someone to steal the paper, so why bother him to send someone, I might as well send it to him personally." ”

"Let's go! What are you waiting for, the two of us will go to shock this paper tiger in person. The dragon laughed out loud.

Leng Manyan nodded knowingly, pinched the paper and accompanied Long Xiaofeng to leave the Shenduan Mansion and head towards the Prime Minister's Mansion.

When the two went to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Zhao Tingde happened to be in the back flower courtyard, accompanying him to enter the door as a concubine, and the two were lingering in the back garden, and they were in love.

When Zhao Tingde heard that Leng Manyan and Long Xiaofeng were coming, he was first startled, and then hurriedly left the beautiful concubine and hurried to the hall in a hurry.

"Yo! It turned out that Lord Shenduan and the prince were here, and the old man had lost his welcome, and he had lost his welcome! As soon as he entered the hall, Zhao Tingde raised his fists at the two of them, politely.

"The minister of state doesn't have to be polite, we are also here to disturb the prime minister." Leng Manyan returned the salute with his fists, deliberately pinched up the thick stack of paper in his hand, and showed it to Zhao Tingde.

Zhao Tingde frowned, and looked at the paper in Leng Manyan's hand, "Yo! What is it in this hand of Lord Divine Judgment? ”

"Oh! No, the barbarian minister said, this is the adverbial word that Xia Guan broke Qin Huaiyu's two legs and came out of his mouth. "Leng Manyan's words stirred up a thousand waves!

As soon as she finished saying this, Zhao Tingde was so frightened that he almost fell to the ground on the spot.

Long Xiaofeng hurriedly rushed forward with a smile and helped Zhao Tingde up, "Is the Prime Minister okay?" ”

He ...... What did he recruit? Zhao Tingde asked loudly in fright.

"The prime minister should see for himself!" Leng Manyan calmly handed the thick stack of papers in his hand to Zhao Tingde.

Zhao Tingde took the paper and looked at it for a while, his face immediately turned from white to blue, and then from green to white, a dead man, and it was funny to see Long Xiaofeng and Leng Manyan.

Leng Manyan coughed twice, "Prime Minister, how do you see it?" ”

"Slander, this is pure slander! As the minister of a country and loyal to the emperor, the old man would not do such a thing? Prince, Lord God, you have to be aware of everything and avenge the old man! As soon as Leng Manyan spoke, Zhao Tingde shouted aggrievedly.

This was not enough to calm Zhao Tingde's anger, and he smashed the entire paper in his hand on the table, Zhao Tingde scolded again, "The old man will send troops now to arrest Qin Huaiyu's bastard boy and confront him." ”

"No need, Prime Minister of State, Qin Huaiyu has been broken by me, he is a waste, he is no longer the commander of Licheng County, and he doesn't know where to run for a long time." Leng Manyan smiled and told Zhao Tingde such news, which almost made him feel suffocated.

Zhao Tingde covered his mouth angrily and coughed on the spot, and his old appearance was gone.

After coughing for a while, Zhao Tingde gasped for breath, and he turned his gaze to Leng Manyan, "Lord Shenduan, don't you really believe what Qin Huaiyu said?" ”

"Don't worry, I definitely don't believe it, but if the emperor doesn't believe it, then I don't know." Leng Manyan pretended to be a threat.

"Your Majesty, the old man will go and say it himself, and the old man will go to ask for the guilt, and God will rest assured." Zhao Tingde patted his chest and assured Leng Manyan.

Regarding Zhao Tingde's assurance, Leng Manyan only regarded it as bullshit, worthless.

Ignoring the panicked Zhao Tingde, Leng Manyan kindly reminded, "Prime Minister! The Ji family mystery case, now I have finally found the tip of the iceberg, if the minister doesn't want to be implicated! It's better to go and make it clear to the emperor, so as not to find out when you get it, and the minister will be worried. ”

"I ...... What do I have to worry about? Old man...... The old man is not afraid of crooked shadows, so I will take the paper into the palace to face the saint and explain the situation to the emperor. Zhao Tingde was so excited by Leng Manyan, he immediately wanted to enter the palace to face the saint.

"Then I won't bother the Prime Minister, let's leave first." Leng Manyan had no intention of stopping Zhao Tingde.

said goodbye to Zhao Tingde, and the two left the Prime Minister's Mansion proudly.

As soon as the two left, Zhao Tingde sat down on the bench with a weak butt, looked at the stack of papers on the table, and his face immediately became bitter, "Damn!" Damn! The wisdom of the old man I is all ruined in your hands, Qin Huaiyu, Qin Huaiyu, you must not let the old man catch you, otherwise, the old man will swear to pick your skin, pull your tendons, and the housekeeper will come over. ”

"Xiangye, what do you command?" As soon as the smart housekeeper heard Zhao Tingde's shout, he hurriedly ran in.

Zhao Tingde slapped the paper in his hand into the butler's arms, and said bitterly, "Look at it, you give a proposal to the prime minister, what should you do now?" ”

"This ...... This...... He actually did it all? The housekeeper looked at the form paper written by Qin Huaiyu and shouted dumbfounded.

"You were broken with two legs, you also recruited, don't care about him, think about it for the old man first, what should I do now?" Zhao Tingde scolded the housekeeper angrily.

The housekeeper felt that what he said made sense.

This person has two legs broken, he can't move! Impatiently put the paper back on the table, and the housekeeper shook his head, "Xiangye, I'm afraid Xiangye will not be able to escape this implication this time." ”

"Nonsense, you still need to say it, I want you to help the old man think about how to implicate a smaller one, so as not to lose his head, and return to his hometown." Zhao Tingde scolded the housekeeper angrily.

His idea was really beautiful, but the reality was cruel.

The case of the Ji family has brought down the Qing officials like Ji Ruzhenglong, if Leng Manyan finds out the truth, he, the minister of state, will not be able to escape responsibility, who let him have anything to do with the millions of taels of silver? This is ironclad evidence, and Zhao Tingde has no way to escape such a fate.

Standing in place and thinking for a while, the smart housekeeper's eyes suddenly lit up, "Xiangye, there is." ”

"What, say it." Zhao Tingde exclaimed.

"Xiangye, even if the god has found out about this, the Xiangye simply came to push two, two push three, and push all the things to that person, so that Xiang Ye may not be able to keep his official position, not to mention, the final punishment is at most a deceived and induced, so as not to lose his official position!" The butler made a bad move.

His idea is very simple, he wants Zhao Tingde to put all the blame on the person behind the scenes.

Zhao Tingde was bored for a long time, stretched out his hand and touched his chin, "You are right to say this, no wonder God did not ask for Qin Huaiyu's life, that kid also pushed like this, and pushed all the sins away." ”

"Xiangye, if you don't push it on her now, when it is investigated in the future, she will definitely put all the sins on you, why don't we strike first!" The housekeeper excitedly admonished Zhao Tingde.

"Yes! The first strike is strong, and the second strike is the seedling! I have to do it, hurry, prepare my official uniform, I'm going to go to the Shenduan Mansion. Zhao Tingde listened to the housekeeper's courage, and he immediately made a decision to go to the Shenxuan Mansion to confess to Leng Manyan.

And Leng Manyan's plan really shocked Zhao Tingde, and Zhao Tingde was able to panic to the point of being able to make this kind of peace out of everyone's expectations.
