Chapter 404: Cooperate with him
Of course, Fang Xiaoyu heard the ill intentions hidden in Mei Cangyun's words. But she was not in a hurry to argue, and she had no intention of bringing up the old things that Mei Su regretted again.
She knew very well that if she mentioned Mei Su's regret again, it would be a trap for Mei Cangyun. The more anxious she is to clear up, the more outsiders will think that she has no money here, and they will suspect that she is trying to repay Mei Suxi's hatred for bullying her at the beginning, so she deliberately targets Prime Minister Mei.
Therefore, Fang Xiaoyu did not answer Mei Cangyun's words at all, but calmly listened to Mei Cangyun's defense, like an emotionless statue, which made everyone think highly of her.
Mei Cangyun saw that Fang was not fooled by his smile, and his heart was also slightly sunk. In the past, he had never put Fang Xiaoyu in his eyes, although she had also stirred up a lot of trouble in Beijing, but the height he stood at, the entire court was almost in his hands, and Fang Xiaoyu was not qualified to be put in his eyes. Even if Shang Jingwei lost his daughter because of Fang Xiaoyu, he didn't care too much. Shang Jingwei is just a chess piece, just like the connections in his hands, they are all fools who help him count the money after he calculates, and it is not worth his worry about it at all.
Shang Jingwei is, and so is Fang Jianzhang. Otherwise, he would not let him install his own chess pieces in the Zhenyuan army, Fang Jianzhang thought that it was a repayment, and believed that he would not plot against him, but for him, the Zhenyuan army was a piece of fat, and he was one of the many wolves who coveted it. It's just that he occupies the position of a benefactor, so Fang Jianzhang is not defensive against him, otherwise he would not be an iron bucket, and the Zhenyuan army, which other forces can't get into the eyes at all, has fallen to such a point.
But I didn't expect this fool to have an extremely smart daughter, she saw through his layout and plan, and even used this incident to design him in turn, so that his Prime Minister's family fell into a panic of being beheaded all over the house.
This blames him for not seeing who the real enemy really is. Unexpectedly, along the way, not only did he not use the battle of the Quicksand Country to get rid of Fang Jianzhang, but he set up a stronger enemy for himself.
However, he admits that he has contributed to the trouble, but only to help the trouble. It didn't start because of him, it didn't end because of him, from the beginning to the end, he just pushed a little bit in it. He did not collaborate with the enemy to commit treason, nor did he order Fang Jianzhang to be locked outside the city gate, although he had the intention of using this matter to control the Zhenyuan army, he was not the culprit of this matter.
But Fang Xiaoyu prepared the so-called testimony. took out all the chess pieces he had planted in Zhenyuan's army, forced him to draw a charge one by one, and made a confession to testify against him at this time.
Hunting geese all day long, but being pecked by geese.
Some of those testimonies were true, but most of them were false. Talking about collaborating with the quicksand country privately and betraying the intelligence of Beiyan, the quicksand country knows everything about the Zhenyuan army. What instructed his subordinates to deceive Zhou An and Huainan, the two deputy generals, imprisoned them, and bewitched Liang Bo, so that he was fooled, and almost killed Fang Jianzhang. In the end, Liang Bo insisted on dying on the battlefield because of guilt, saying how affectionate and righteous Liang Bo was, as if he was an inhuman villain.
But in fact, he knew very little about Fang Jianzhang's accident. Although Sun Yun, whom he installed, became Fang Jianzhang's lieutenant, but later, Fang Jianzhang had begun to guard against Sun Yun intentionally or unintentionally, which made him realize that Fang Jianzhang probably knew the truth about his original disaster.
However, because Fang Jianzhang has been in the capital, there is still room for him to plan for the affairs of Beiyan. Unexpectedly, Sun Yun was designed by Liang Bo early in the morning and rushed to battle, resulting in the defeat of the army, and even wiped out with an army of 100,000. And after he got the news, it was even difficult to investigate who designed Sun Yun.
The mastermind behind the real cause of this war covered the matter of Beiyan tightly, that is, the emperor had no way to investigate the matter, and all the people sent to investigate were killed halfway, which is also the reason why the emperor was quite angry about this matter.
But I didn't expect that Fang Xiaoyu, a woman, would actually get the thing done.
When he first heard the news, he even wondered if Fang Jianzhang directed and acted in this play, and guessed that if this matter was planned by Fang Jianzhang, I am afraid that the ultimate goal was to come at him.
In fact, after Fang Xiaoyu returned to Beijing, he did start to open a knife to the Prime Minister's Mansion to open a knife to him, so at such a passive moment, he still suspected that this matter might be a trap set by Fang Jianzhang and Fang Xiaoyu together.
"Fang Xiaoyu, what kind of grudge does the old man have with you, you want to put my Prime Minister's Mansion to death so much? The old man asked himself if he had never provoked you, and even saved Fang Jianzhang back then, so why did you want to take revenge, why did you want to be aggressive! Mei Cangyun had resentment on her face, disappointment in her eyes, hoarseness could be heard in her voice, as if she had a thought, this kindness created a white-eyed wolf, this anger, this unwillingness, this coldness, can be clearly felt from the old face full of vicissitudes.
Even people like Fang Xiaoyu, who have already perfected their acting skills, have to sigh at the old fox's scheming. This kind of ability to express in the eyebrows and eyes in detail almost every minute and every second is difficult to achieve without decades of accumulation.
"Prime Minister, smile and ask yourself if you are worthy of heaven and earth, worthy of conscience, and have never deliberately targeted the Prime Minister, and even because the Prime Minister is kind to his father, he never connected the person behind the Beiyan affair with the Prime Minister at the beginning. Xiaoyu was also shocked, the adult had saved his father's life, and he had the grace of guiding his father, and even if his father could have today, the prime minister did not help less, so his father was grateful to the prime minister, and even allowed the adult to install eyes and ears in the Zhenyuan army. But the adults are inevitably too greedy, and a deputy general Sun is not satisfied, and even wants to replace his father to secretly control the Zhenyuan army. My father can have today, and the grace of the prime minister's guidance and promotion is indispensable, but it is also a real sword and a real gun, fighting on the battlefield and becoming a great general! Beiyan is the gateway to the Great Cheng, connecting the Dayu Dynasty and unable to withstand half of the turmoil. As a general of Beiyan, he is responsible for the safety of the people and the honor and disgrace of his family and country, so he can't allow adults to interfere in the military just because the prime minister is kind to his father, what's wrong? Because the adult was rejected by his father, he had a murderous intention, regardless of the life and death of the people of Beiyan, and united with the quicksand country to invade, resulting in countless deaths and injuries. When the adults used the sword for their own selfishness, did they ever think that if the Northern Yan army was defeated and the Quicksand Country Chang drove straight in, where would the dignity of Dacheng be placed? ”
Fang Xiaoyu's counterattack was loud, and every sentence explained the reason why Beiyan's incident happened.
From Fang Xiaoyu's words, the ministers had already drawn out a coherent line.
When Fang Jianzhang was in trouble, he was rescued by the prime minister. abandoned the pen from Rong to Beiyan to join the army, which was also the guidance of the prime minister. Fang Jianzhang lived up to expectations, and became the general of Beiyan step by step by virtue of military exploits, single-handedly brought out the Zhenyuan army, held 500,000 soldiers, guarded Beiyan for Dacheng, guarded the gate, and prevented the invading enemy from stepping into the territory of Dacheng, and was also deeply trusted by the emperor.
Because the prime minister had saved Fang Jianzhang's life, the prime minister wanted to meddle in the affairs of the Zhenyuan army, Fang Jianzhang also turned a blind eye and allowed him to install some eyes and ears in the Zhenyuan army, and Fang Jianzhang was also grateful to the prime minister, if the prime minister had a life, he would never shirk what he could.
However, as a general, you should have your own bottom line. Although Mei Cangyun was allowed to install eyes and ears in the Zhenyuan Army, he could not be allowed to interfere too much in the military affairs of the Zhenyuan Army.
The prime minister or saw that Fang Jianzhang obeyed him, and he became greedy, but a few ears and eyes were no longer enough to satisfy his appetite, it just so happened that Sun Yun had become a deputy general, and in the future, Fang Jianzhang would be transferred back to the capital, and there would be a deputy general to take over his position as the general of Beiyan and become the number two person in the Zhenyuan army.
However, the person Fang Jianzhang trusted most was not Sun Yun, but someone else. In addition, Sun Yun is the person who Mei Cangyun planted in the Zhenyuan Army, and it is even more hopeless to get Fang Jianzhang's promotion, so Prime Minister Mei Cheng has a murderous intention against Fang Jianzhang, and does not hesitate to cooperate with the Quicksand Country, the purpose of which is to get rid of Fang Jianzhang for this purpose, and then replace him with his people, so that he can unconsciously control the command of the Zhenyuan Army.
Fang Xiaoyu must have known about this matter, so he targeted Mei Cangyun as soon as he returned to Beijing, and there was no possibility of making peace at all, and he even found all the evidence at the beginning, just to put Mei Cangyun to death in today's court.
Everyone began to speculate that with Fang Xiaoyu's means, just finding out the eyes and ears of Mei Cangyun in the Zhenyuan army, and asking them to confess the truth of the matter, it was not enough to really bring down Mei Cangyun, the prime minister of the dynasty, Fang Xiaoyu must have a backhand.
And some clever courtiers have already sensed the most terrible crisis from the story given by Fang Xiaoyu. Once it is not handled well, it is enough to become Mei Cangyun's end.
That is, why does Mei Cangyun have to control the Zhenyuan army?
As the prime minister of the dynasty, he is already the head of a hundred officials. The civilian clique is almost under his control, and the prime minister's party is all over the government and the opposition.
And military power is the most intolerable rebellion of the emperor. A prime minister who has controlled the civilian group and leaned towards the government and the opposition is not satisfied, so he actually stretched out his hand to Beiyan, wanting to replace Dacheng's god of war and completely control the Zhenyuan army, what is its purpose?
is already the prime minister and is not satisfied, does he still want to rebel?
Linked to the rumors that the prime minister outside wanted to rebel, the ministers couldn't help but look at Fang Xiaoyu, but saw Fang Xiaoyu looking at Mei Cangyun with an angry face, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.
This little woman is terrible. Her anger is all faked, but in the direction where the emperor is, it is impossible to see her sneer, only her anger and hatred, as well as the awe-inspiring righteousness for the country and the people.
She really wanted to kill Mei Cangyun, not just bring him down.
This is a feeling that suddenly pops up in the hearts of the ministers.
Before they could think about it more, Fang Xiaoyu regained his previous expressionless face, as if he was trying to suppress his anger, and his every move was attracting everyone's attention.
She turned her face, faced the emperor, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, although Xiaoyu is a woman, she has also been taught by her father since she was a child, to be loyal to the monarch and patriotism, and not to do things that betray the great inheritance." The courtiers have always kept it in mind and never dared to slack off. During the trip to Beiyan, the courtiers just wanted to find the whereabouts of their father and Xici, they wanted to see people in life and corpses in death, and the courtiers did not believe that their father, who had been educating their courtiers to be loyal and patriotic, would be a deserter. Not to mention the fact that he would betray the country to which he was loyal and become a traitor. ”
Fang Xiaoyu spoke very steadily, and when these words came out, everyone seemed to see a great general who had died for the country and the people, and the tall image jumped on the paper.
"The courtier's daughter went to Beiyan, and the shopkeeper who happened to settle down accidentally saved her father and his party, and only then did she learn the truth about his 'disappearance' from her father. The courtiers infiltrated the border city alone, verified the evidence, and also got the help of Lord Luo Liangluo, only then did they learn that the city gate of Beiyancheng was sealed, and many people were killed tragically, especially the families of the 50,000 soldiers who were locked outside the city gate with their father, who had been killed and injured countless times. And Deputy General Liang Boliang thought that this was his father's strategy, because the eyes and ears planted by the prime minister had spread all over the Zhenyuan army, they deliberately transferred their father, and then someone pretended to replace him, and put forward a plan of fake betrayal. From the very beginning, my father was locked outside the city gate, 50,000 soldiers were killed and wounded, and the soldiers' families were slaughtered. But they didn't want to, they were just deceived and became Prime Minister Mei's accomplices who wanted to get rid of his father. ”
When the courtiers learned that the prime minister was the culprit of this battle, they couldn't believe it. My father originally remembered the grace of the prime minister, and mentioned to his courtiers several times that if someone from the prime minister's mansion had something, he would help if he could, which was regarded as a repayment. The courtiers never thought that the prime minister would want to put her father to death, for fear that someone would deliberately frame him, so she checked several times in Beiyan, but the spearhead was all pointed at the prime minister. The courtiers helped General Liang to guard the city gate, and dragged His Royal Highness the prince to the Dayu Dynasty to form an alliance, and ordered his subordinates to go down to seek the help of the fox wolf grassland, and destroyed the quicksand country in one fell swoop, and wiped out all the enemies who invaded Beiyan outside the city gate. ”
The courtier's words were not half false. In addition to these confessions in the hands of the emperor, the courtiers also escorted all these testimonies into Beijing, and the emperor could interrogate them in person. ”
Fang Xiaoyu calmly stated her 'personal experience' in Beiyan, and the reason why she didn't kill the captains who chose to betray and defect to Liang Bo at the beginning was for today.
She left Beiyan first and returned to Beijing, and then Ye Xici escorted all these people into Beijing. The men were already frightened by her methods, and all the confessions they made were according to her demands.
In fact, the matter of Beiyan has little to do with Mei Cangyun, although his mind is not pure, but he is not the culprit of this series of things.
However, he was the target of the man behind the scenes. That person caused the war between Beiyan and the Quicksand Country, the purpose was to let her investigate, and then find out the prime minister. The old hatred and old hatred add up, and with her temperament, she will definitely not let go of Mei Cangyun. borrowed her hand to get rid of Mei Cangyun, and his goal was achieved.
It's just that the person behind the curtain didn't expect that she had insight into his identity, and also knew his plans and plans.
Therefore, she cooperated with him as he wished. (To be continued.) )
