Chapter Ninety-Eight: Change

"Your Majesty, the minister has a book to play. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

In the hall, Cui Ge, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, rarely proposed to play, which made Xiao Hongzhen's eyes flutter, this Cui Ge has always been cautious in his words, and he never speaks easily if there is no major situation.

Xiao Hongzhen said with concern: "Cui Aiqing, what do you have to do?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister got the news yesterday that there was a major disaster in the Lianzhou Palace, and twenty-seven people died in one day yesterday due to the hot weather and the huge amount of work."

"What!"

Xiao Hongzhen was furious: "Since the weather is unbearable, why do you still ask the laborers to work hard!" Twenty-seven lives! Cui Ge, how did you become a secretary of the Ministry of Industry! ”

The atmosphere was extraordinarily quiet, and all the courtiers bowed their heads and were silent: it was His Majesty's will to complete the renovation of the palace within a month, who would dare to disobey? Now that someone has died in order to catch up with the construction period, His Majesty's face is gloomy, this Cui Shangshu can only carry it down, and it is unlucky enough to think about it.

Cui Ge knelt down in a calm atmosphere: "Back to Your Majesty, before Your Majesty ordered the household department to assist in repairing the palace, the minister has learned that yesterday's incident was ..... It was caused by Zhao Zhengxing, the household servant, who ignored the dissuasion and insisted on doing it. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Hongzhen's sharp eyes swept to Fu Wenjie, the head of the household: "Fu Wenjie! Good work done by your people! ”

Fu Wenjie was terrified, and hurriedly knelt down: "Your Majesty is angry, the minister, the guilty minister has no way to teach him, so that such a catastrophe has been caused, the criminal minister is responsible for negligence, and I ask Your Majesty to surrender." ”

Everyone looked at it, and it seemed that they finally realized a doorway: this Cui Ge is worthy of being a scheming man, and Fu Wenjie, the head of the household department, tried his best to promote the proposal of the prince to repair the palace, but Cui Shangshu did not object, but proposed that the household department should assist in this matter on the grounds that the construction period was too short for fear of omissions. At the moment, if Fu Wenjie talks about the construction period too tightly, he will undoubtedly embarrass the Ninety-Five Supreme sitting above, so he has 10,000 grievances in his heart, and he can only bear the charge.

Xiao Zhengyuan stood in the front row and thought secretly for a long time, but finally did not plead for Fu Wenjie.

Fu Wenjie saw that no one in the eldest prince's vein was willing to excuse himself, and he knew that there was no possibility of turning around, so he broke out in a cold sweat......

Xiao Hongzhen naturally knows what the reason is, if this matter is not brought to the court, it will be easy to cover up, but once the book is put forward in a grand manner, these 27 lives cannot be sloppy.

"Announcing my will, Zhao Zhengxing, the head of the household department, was inconsiderate and careless of people's lives, resulting in the violent death of 27 people, and they were dismissed from their official positions, exiled to Western Xinjiang, and never allowed to return to Beijing. Fu Wenjie, the secretary of the household department, was not strict under the rule, which caused a catastrophe, and he was removed from the post of the secretary of the household department and demoted to the head of the household department to set an example! ”

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"Retreat...... Towards ......."

After retreating from the court, after everyone dispersed, Xiao Zhengyuan helped Fu Wenjie who was lying on the ground with concern, and said helplessly: "Master Fu, is there any blame for the prince who did not intercede with his father?" ”

Fu Wenjie wiped the cold sweat from his head and said in a panic: "Weichen doesn't dare." ”

"In a situation like that just now, if I really pleaded, my father would inevitably be even more angry, and he would harm the adult. After all, there must be someone responsible for 27 human lives. ”

"Your Highness is very right. Since the minister has supported His Highness, he wants to share his worries and worries for His Highness, and he will definitely not take such honor and disgrace to heart. ”

Xiao Zhengyuan patted him on the shoulder and said comfortingly: "Although my father has demoted the position of an adult, he has not set up a new household secretary, and I think I also know the grievances of the adult, and the adult does not need to worry too much, the position of this household secretary will return to the adult's hand sooner or later." ”

Fu Wenjie's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he hurriedly said: "Then thank Your Highness for planning for Weichen.....

"Master Cui, please stay."

As soon as Cui Ge's sedan chair fell, he heard someone behind him stop him, looked back, and immediately smiled: "Ye Houye, what a coincidence." ”

Ye Boxian also laughed, and said: "It's not a coincidence, the old man knows that the Hou Ye will definitely come to this small courtyard in the suburbs after the next dynasty, so he is specially waiting for the adults here." ”

"Oh? Hou Ye has a heart. The old man has no other preferences on weekdays, but he loves to fiddle with flowers and plants in this small courtyard, which makes Hou Ye smile. ”

"Where, where is it, adults don't love lust and only love flowers and birds, but it makes the old man admire it very much! I don't know if I was lucky enough to enter the hospital to have a look, and it was a blessing for my eyes. ”

The two entered the courtyard together while laughing, and saw the orchids and jasmine all over the courtyard, with different colors and postures, Ye Boxian couldn't help but praise again.

After watering the weeds for the flowers, Cui Ge picked up the pot of tea and said to Ye Boxian: "This is the jasmine tea made by the old man himself, Master Hou tastes it." ”

Ye Boxian took a sip and said: "Fresh and sweet, with a faint floral fragrance, it is really very different from the tea tasted on weekdays. ”

When Cui Ge heard this, he stroked his beard with a smile: "Hou Ye is too modest, today Hou Ye came to find the old man, thinking that it is not just as simple as appreciating flowers and tasting tea, Hou Ye might as well say it directly." ”

"Master Cui is refreshing, and then Boxian won't sell Guanzi anymore. You and I have been in the same dynasty for 20 years, and in the early years, I have been leading troops to fight, and I have not had much contact with Lord Cui, but I know that my lord is honest and generous, and he has a ravine, and he admires him very much. ”

Cui Ge shook his head and said: "Cui is just doing something within his bounds, he doesn't dare to go beyond it, he just wants to live in peace and stability, if he can solve his worries for His Majesty and the people, he will live up to this life." How can you get you, Lord Hou, to charge into battle and kill the enemy bloodily, bringing stability and peace for my Annan country for decades. ”

Ye Boxian sighed: "The peaceful and prosperous times of Annan in the past few decades are naturally not exchanged for me alone, but Boxian asked himself, and he is willing to die for the Jiangshan Society, but now His Majesty is old, and the situation in the DPRK and China is chaotic, so Boxian doesn't know how to deal with himself......."

"What did Master Hou say? Although Your Majesty is old, but you still have enough energy, for the affairs of the court, Your Majesty has its own decision in his heart, we only need to do things for Your Majesty, why should you be confused? ”

Ye Boxian heard this, but he sighed: "Although Boxian is stupid, he can also see the clues, how can adults not know?" ”

Cui Ge's eyes fell on Ye Boxian's face, thinking of Ye Boxian's performance in the court during this time, and seemed to have guessed what he came from.

Pulling his eyes to the orchid in the distance, Cui Ge took a sip of tea and said lightly: "Cui is unwilling to get involved in party disputes, if the Hou Ye is here for the eldest prince today, please forgive Cui for not responding." ”

"The power of the eldest prince has almost spread all over the government and the opposition, why can't Lord Cui take advantage of the trend?"
