Chapter 316: Whose Responsibility?
When Wang Gaisheng asked Peng Peng about the eldest prince's mansion, Peng Peng asked him angrily: "The horse you rode was pulled out of that courtyard, how many more do you want?" β
After saying this, the two of them froze at the same time.
Peng Peng knew that he had lost his words and said something that he shouldn't have said. With Wang Gaisheng's clever head, he must be able to deduce the connection between him and the eldest prince, and when he said this, didn't he reveal the eldest prince?
He was so frightened that he couldn't help but shake the knife he was holding at his waist.
If it really doesn't work, I will kill him, I would rather not kill Zhao Gao than push the eldest prince out!
"Heyββ, don't!" Wang Gaisheng hurriedly retreated. "I said, brother, are you there? Didn't I just ask for an extra horse for you? I'm hanging from my head, I need more horses, is it more? β
Peng Peng gritted his teeth, it's not a matter of horses now, it's a matter of fate now!
"Hey, brother, brother, you are very capable, I know, we are not outsiders, so I told you the truth from the bottom of my heart. Then you see, isn't it better for us to be close to each other now? β
Peng Peng's mind was racing, and he wondered, wouldn't this be better?
The eldest prince and Xiao Han have common enemies, and it is of course better to think in one place and work hard in one place.
However, Wang Gaisheng is too slippery, let him know so much, is it really good?
If Zhao Gao gave him a few horses, would he also sell himself?
"Hey, brother, brother, put down the knife, put down the knife, you cannibalism is terrible! My king will not be able to give birth to two, and it will not be enough for you to chop up. Besides, don't you know where my home is? You've seen my two daughters-in-law and children, right? What kind of heart do you have? β
Peng Peng's hand on the knife loosened slightly. His family, he has indeed seen it, the child pounced on him and called his father, this can't be fake.
"I said brother, come, put down the knife, let's have a good relationship with each other. You see, I analyze the pros and cons. I betrayed the eldest prince, is there any benefit? Even if I get some benefits, how long will they last? Am I worth it for the sake of this little benefit? But if I help the eldest prince except Zhao Gao, what benefits will I get? If I can't see this thing clearly, am I still worthy of being called Wang Gaisheng? β
Peng Peng relaxed his shoulders, at this moment, his heart was still a little hanging, and he had now considered the pros and cons, but it was difficult for a person who only recognized interests to believe his words, interests were a matter of time and moment, and this guy was still unreliable.
"Hey, brother, how can I say that you believe it? Okay, let's finish this first, okay? Let's take him out of that position first, shall we? β
Peng Peng exhaled, what Wang Gaisheng said made sense, to prevent Wang Gaisheng and beat Zhao Gao, it is obvious that one is urgent, and the other can be postponed. It should be desirable to test Wang Gaisheng's loyalty in the process of beating Zhao Gao. Of course, this Wang Gaisheng has nothing to do with loyalty at all. But at present, he really can't find a better way, and he can't find a more suitable helper than Wang Gaisheng. What he lacks is not courage, but a head like Wang Gaisheng.
β¦β¦β¦
For several days, Wang Gaisheng was immersed in the tension and excitement of extracting toad crisp. In the middle, he almost went into danger, and the liquid that came out of the toad's ears shot into his eyes, and after taking measures, it also made him uncomfortable for several days.
In fact, after the plan of the roundabout attack was determined, he went to the pharmacy to ask about several poisonous herbs such as strychnine, and the guys in the pharmacy said no, and his smart mind thought about it, and he figured out that the "Compendium of Materia Medica" and other medical books and pharmacopoeias are not things of this era, and Chinese medicine has not yet developed to the stage where everything has been tried. This has to be done by groups of people in front of them to survive.
Then he had to try it himself, but fortunately, this one was done for his grandfather.
"Grandpa, the grandson was finished when he became the deputy director in his previous life, and in this life, he wants to compete for the position of prime minister, you can bless your grandson when you are old, we are people with skills!"
When he handed the jar with toad crisp to Peng Peng, he held Peng Peng's hand and said quite emotionally: "Brother, our future and life are entrusted to you, whether it will work or not, it depends on you!" β
Peng Peng nodded solemnly, he was originally a person who was not ready to retreat, this time, just give it a try!
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
It happened as expected.
The horses in the royal stables fell in pieces and died in pieces. On the first day, five horses, on the second day, eight horses, on the third day, sixteen horses, and on the fourth day, seventeen horses.
The symptoms of death are different from those of previous episodes. He roared excitedly, rampage through the stable, then convulsed all over his body, and finally died of exhaustion.
Checking what they ate, they couldn't find anything, it seemed to have a special taste, but no one could say clearly, what was that taste?
All the horses are horses from the Royal Mews. This is the only place in the city's stables that has an accident.
So, the veterinarian said, it's not the epidemic!
It's not a problem of the epidemic, it's a management problem!
The spearhead instantly focused on Zhao Gao, the commander of the CRRC Mansion.
β¦β¦
Kunningyuan Council Hall.
After reporting on the locust plague in Sanchuan County, he also reported on the resettlement of people in Yunzhong County. That's all for today.
Zong Ling Zhao Cong moved his eyes to Zhao Gao, thinking, doesn't the emperor plan to express his position?
Nei Shi Hou Shikun's eyes stared directly at the void in front of him, but his ears caught any movement around him. At this time, even a cough is meaningful.
Except for fart, which smells and doesn't make sense.
The emperor looked at the newly appointed servant Zheng Huan and cleared his throat first.
Hou Shikun said in his heart, it's finally here!
"Servant Zheng Huan, tell me about the situation! How many horses died, so that people could hear clearly, or in a few days, maybe the horses would go crazy and spread to be crazy! For such rumors, Ying Zheng hated it.
Zhao Gao's head lowered, this matter must have been explained in the fold, but the emperor still asked in front of the ministers, it must have to be dealt with.
Zheng Huan took a step forward with a heavy heart, bowed his body, and said: Your Majesty, there are twelve more horses that are restless this morning, plus the ones from a few days ago, there are seventy horses that died and were sick! In addition, horses who change forage also have symptoms of body cramps, which are similar to those of sick horses. β
There was some slight movement among the ministers.
It's just that the horse went crazy in those days, why are people going crazy too?
The emperor asked, "Are people saved?" β
Zheng Huan said: "It seems that there is help, the doctor gave some medicine to induce vomiting in the past, and he gradually calmed down, but his consciousness has not fully recovered." The doctor said, observe! β
The emperor glanced at Zhao Gao and sighed secretly.
He asked Zheng Huan, "What are you going to do about it?" Are you waiting for the new casualty figures to be reported tomorrow! β
Zheng Huan looked at Zhao Gao and said, "This matter, the specific matter is managed by Lord Zhao of the CRRC Mansion, and he already has a detailed handling plan!" With that, he retreated to the back.
Zhao Gao bit his lip and stepped forward, kneeling down and kowtowing first.
Zhao Gao disappointed the emperor's expectations and was very sad in his heart. I thought that as long as I was loyal to my duties, I could satisfy the emperor and the people of the world, but something went wrong. On the day of the incident, Ma Ling on duty began to be replaced, and today, five people have been replaced. Each of them will be punished according to the law and will not be tolerated! In this matter, as a directly managed official, Zhao Gao is responsible, so Zhao Gao is willing to take out this year's Yulu to make up for the loss of the public middle school! β¦β¦ It should also be noted that this case has been reported to the Imperial Governor's Office, and they are assigning capable forces to investigate, and Zhao Gao will fully cooperate with their inquiries. β
No one spoke in the hall, and from time to time someone cleared their throats, as if they had something to say, but wanted to watch the wind.
The emperor looked at Meng Yi, he was in charge of supervision, and he had the right to speak.
Meng Yi took a step forward, saluted, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, can you let Meng Yi ask a few words?" β
The emperor nodded.
Meng Yi looked at Zhao Gao and asked loudly: "May I ask the CRRC government order, after the first batch of horses died, did you report the case?" β
Zhao Gao shook his head and replied loudly with forced composure: "No." At that time, I thought it was an epidemic, so people dragged those dead horses out and buried them! And, let people change to a new manger. β
Meng Yi asked again: "So, how many batches of horses had an accident before they reported the case?" β
Zhao Gao stubbornly said: "The fourth batch! That is, yesterday! β
Meng Yi asked, "Why are there so many days?" β
Zhao Gao said: "Because to judge whether it is an epidemic, you have to wait for some numbers to come up!" β
Meng Yi asked: "Is it just a replacement for Ma Ling in the past few days of waiting?" β
Zhao Gao said: "Yes, because they are responsible!" Moreover, Zhao Gao had done this kind of thing to inspect the scene, but he didn't see anything, so he had to hand over the matter to the Tingwei Bureau. Maybe they have a good idea! β
Meng Yi said: "According to this, Lord Zhao believed in himself more than he believed in the Tingwei Department from the beginning? β
"You-", Zhao Gao couldn't answer, this is a language trap, you can't answer randomly.
Meng Yi then asked: "In the past few days, has the CRRC government order contacted the security department to strengthen the security force of the palace stables?" β
Zhao Gao had no choice but to shake his head. He said bluntly: "If something happens to the stable, they should check their own negligence, so Zhao Gao doesn't have to take care of everything!" β
Meng Yi said: "According to the meaning of the Lord of the Imperial Order, whose job is whose office, if it doesn't rain, ask the heavens, and the land is not responsible." If the well does not produce water, ask the well to go, and the workers who dig the well are not responsible. There was a locust plague in Sanchuan County, and Sanchuan County was responsible for itself, so he didn't have to report it, so he waited for Zhisu Neishi to know the situation and take the initiative to reduce taxes for Sanchuan County? β
Zhao Gao was so angry that he puffed up.
Hell, can these things be compared like this? How far is Sanchuan County from Xianyang, don't you report it? There was a Crazy Horse incident in the palace stables, and the commotion was turned upside down, don't they know who guards it? This Meng Yi is deliberately looking for trouble today!
Li Si looked at Zhao Gao's tense face with a smile, last time Meng Yi cured him of his crime and was **** by the emperor, this time he won't let him go, right? Shall I throw a little stone too?
He took a step forward and said: "Rong Laoyu said a few words, how can there be no problems in handling errands, and what attitude to face when there is a problem is the most important thing." As the saying goes, it's not too late to make up for the lost sheep, as soon as the sheep is lost, go to the sheepfold immediately and lose the sheep for several days before the sheepfold is ......, hey, the old decay is old, what do you want to say? Why can't you figure it out? β
Zhao Cong laughed after a "poof", hurriedly cleared his throat, and looked full.
Li Si seemed to think clearly again, he said: "Ah, that's the case, it's very important to believe in justice, after all, there is a specialization in the art industry, and you can't solve it privately as soon as you have something, although this reduces the consumption of resources for the country, but does it also hide the facts of the case, laying a hidden danger for future public security?" β
Zhao Cong bit his lower lip tightly to prevent himself from laughing.
Hou Shikun interjected and said: "How can there be a concealment of the case, hasn't the government ordered the Lord to report the case, is it possible that everything has to be done by the public, fall off the horse, let Xianyang County investigate, the concubine fell, let Xianyang County investigate, this also investigates, Xianyang County is still not doing business?" β
Li Si said: "Look at what Lord Hou said, why is this not the right thing? Shouldn't the matter of horses be investigated? What kind of ability is that, he fell off the horse twice in succession, and both times he fell not lightly, isn't this strange? β
Lao Hou continued: "Thisββ, Lao Hou also thought it was very strange at the beginning, but why didn't the government order report the case?" Hey, forget it, people's private affairs, Lao Hou is not involved. β
Zhao Cong couldn't hold back his laughter again. Lao Hou, you are not less involved!
The ministers looked at the emperor with strange expressions one by one.
Zhao Gao's face was flushed, they questioned his management ability, questioned his work attitude, questioned his professional skills, and even questioned his private life, did they have an end?
"Uh-huh!" The emperor made a sound, and all the courtiers hurriedly adjusted their complexions and focused their eyes on the emperor.
"The matter of the stable has been messy lately, so leave it to Huang Youda! Zhao Gao was suspended first, reflected on the omissions within the scope of his post, and at the same time, fined him for one year to set an example! (To be continued.) )
