Dou Wei heard what Changsun Mei said, and cold sweat immediately broke out on his back.

Of course, he knew the weight of Changsun Mei in the palace, compared to foreign officials, Changsun Mei naturally understood the sage's thoughts a lot, whether Changsun Mei's words were her original intention or not, at least the words that the sage was willing to hear, and these words were obviously completely different from what he said.

It is certainly not a good thing that a courtier cannot see into the heart of a saint and say something that does not agree with the mind of a saint.

"The minister is blunt, what the eldest grandson said is extremely true." Dou Wei said immediately.

The sage smiled lightly and said to the Minister of State: "Prime Minister, the little girl has to bring Qin Xiao, you arranged Qin Xiao to train in the Ministry of War, and in a short period of time, you exposed the favoritism and fraud of the Treasury Department, it seems that you are not wrong with this person." The voice suddenly became cold: "This case will be handed over to Dali Temple for investigation first, I really want to know, is this those minions in Shangshu Province privately colluding with fraud, or is there another high-ranking person behind it." ”

"Obey." Dou Wei said respectfully.

The sage stood up and said, "I have been too tolerant of the ministers of the court, and many of them have become a little unscrupulous. Prime Minister, you work harder, but also to give those people a wake-up call, some things, stop in moderation, don't have no boundaries, I have a bodhisattva's heart, and there are also thunder means. Waved his hand: "The clouds are in the blue sky and the water is in the bottle, let's go on our own errands!" ”

"The old minister obeys." The prime minister got up, bowed down and said, "Sage, what should I do with Xue Keyong?" ”

"Although he has meritorious service in exposing it, he took the convoy to Zhuque Street, and the city was full of wind and rain, and the merits and demerits were offset, let him go back to Yuzhou." The sage instructed: "Dou Aiqing, Xue Ke used the weapon he used, and you personally allocated it to him, which I personally promised, so naturally I can't break my trust with him." ”

The sage raised his right hand and gently stroked the back of his left hand, and then asked, "How much is left of the pill that Hongling offered?" ”

"Although Hongling Zhenren is gone, his eldest disciple Xuan Xiao has been cooperating in the past few years when he was alchemizing." The old manager is always half-bowed in front of the saint, and he will reply with his heart when he has no problem with the saint: "The old slave is just in case, so when he instructed Hongling Zhenren to make alchemy, he must let Xuanxiao know the process of alchemy, and now Xuanxiao can immediately take over Hongling Zhenren's errand and will not delay alchemy." The elixir offered last time was enough for six days, and within three days, the Immortal Temple would offer a new elixir into the palace. ”

The prime minister and Dou Wei waited for the eldest grandson Mei to accompany the saint out of the imperial study, and then retreated.

"Sage, it's time to enter Dan!" Out of the imperial study, the old manager Wei Wuya was already waiting outside.

Only then did Manager Wei step forward and hold one of the sage's arms, and walked slowly through the small garden next to the imperial study.

"Do you know about the military department?" The sage suddenly asked: "The purple-clothed prisoner under your hand has many eyes and ears, and there are remnant knives stored in the arsenal of Wudefang, don't you say that you don't know anything." ”

The saint looked satisfied, looked at the eldest grandson Mei and said, "Mei'er should retreat first." ”

The eldest grandson Mei was meek and saluted, without a word of nonsense, and slowly pushed it away.

Manager Wei showed a hint of a smile, and seemed to be very useful to the title of "old dog", and said softly: "Although the old slave has heard about it, there is no conclusive evidence, and the old slave has not let people investigate. ”

"Why don't you check?"

Manager Wei did not hesitate, and said directly: "The old slave has heard a little, but the old slave's arms can't be stretched too long, and there are some things that can only be deaf." ”

"Heard a little?" The sage glanced at Chief Manager Wei and said angrily: "You old dog, why have you never mentioned it to me?" ”

The saint stopped, the eyes that once charmed the world were still as bright as water, turned his head to look at the respectful old eunuch beside him, and sneered: "Do you dare not check, or will you not check?" ”

"The old slave said to the saint a long time ago that sometimes the old slave's ears are very deaf and his eyes are very bright." Chief Wei sighed: "As long as it doesn't hurt the saint, the old slave is just an old eunuch in the palace." The old slave is an old dog guarding the palace, and if someone wants to move the bricks and tiles of the palace, the old dog can immediately turn into a grin and tear him to pieces, but as long as he is not close to the palace, this old dog will only lie under the wall, even if he hears the shouting outside, he is not interested in opening his eyes. Holding the sage's hand, he said softly, "The sage fell asleep as if this old dog." ”

"Purple

The wardens protected the saints, not the imperial court. Manager Wei said calmly: "There are some things that shouldn't be checked, and the old slave won't check them." ”

"Who is it?"

Manager Wei shook his head and smiled mysteriously: "In less than three days, that person will kneel in front of the saint, and the old slave is really hard to say now." ”

The sage looked at Manager Wei, suddenly laughed, and scolded: "You old thing, it's getting worse and worse. Walking slowly, he was silent for a while, and finally asked, "Who is behind it, don't you know?" ”

"The old slave has heard a little."

The saint smiled and did not ask any more.

This old dog is loyal, but also very shrewd.

"You really don't talk about it?"

"The old slave is asleep!"

What the old dog didn't say, the saint actually knew in his heart.

If you really don't know anything, how can you hand over this case to Dali Temple for investigation?

In this world, there are not a few people who want to be loyal to the saint, and there are also many shrewd people, but the slave who can be loyal to the bones and shrewd to the bone marrow may only be the old eunuch next to him.

The saint knows that he will not hide what he should not hide, but he will not easily say things that should not be said.

This year does not seem to be a year of reversal, and it has not been peaceful since the beginning of the year.

The aftermath of Fan Wenzheng's case has not disappeared, and another major case occurred in the Ministry of War, and no one knows how many heads will fall to the ground this time.

Qin Xiao, who was in the military department, naturally knew nothing about the affairs in the palace.

Dou Wei entered the palace, all the officials of the military department stayed in the yamen honestly, after dark, the yamen provided food, most of the officials were worried, what happened in the treasury department had already spread throughout the entire military department yamen, and the officials who knew about it certainly knew that this was another great case.

If there is still one person in the Treasury Department who is calm and calm, it can only be Qin Xiao.

The food provided in the yamen was actually quite good, several officials from the Treasury Department ate in the same room, and the others were worried, where to eat, but Qin Xiao was full of wine and food, looking at the other people worried, he couldn't help but say: "A few adults should eat and eat, the matter has happened, it is important to take care of your body." ”

The officials of the Treasury Department were already worried, and when the people from Dali Temple suddenly appeared in the military department and took Han Day, the head of the Treasury Department, away, everyone was even more frightened, and they only felt that a great disaster was coming.

Once Han Tian is really convicted, no matter whether other officials of the Ministry of the Treasury are involved in this matter or not, there will inevitably be many people who will be implicated in the shoddy imperial weapons for favoritism, and everyone knows that this is a matter of falling on the head.

In addition to Fei Qiji's modest and generous demeanor, his demeanor was quite normal, and the other two officials looked at Qin Xiao's eyes a little unkindly.

"Qin Ling, can you really eat?" The official of the second word library said angrily: "The matter happened in your A word library, if you really want to be guilty, you Qin Lingguan will not be able to escape the blame." ”

Several people looked at Qin Xiao, and the matter was revealed from the Jiazi library, and several orders

The officials are not stupid people, and if they know that this matter has nothing to do with Qin Xiao, then they really see a ghost.

"Not bad." Qin Xiao is not surprised that they know about themselves, after all, they have entered the military department as an errand boy, and naturally there are archives in it, and the military department naturally has records about their past, and they have been a jailer in Turtle City is something that many people know, and it is impossible not to mention it in the archives.

"You followed General Black Feather, but the general was murdered in Xiling." The official sneered, "That one named Han Yunong is said to have been your boss, but now he has also been sent to the south. You entered the military department, and worked as an errand under Chief Han, it has only been a few days, and Chief Han has also been involved in you, involved in a big case, life and death are unpredictable, I said Qin Ling, your eight characters are really hard, whoever is your boss, it seems that there is no good result. ”

The T-shaped library commander also sneered: "There has never been an accident in the armory for many years, and you Qin Lingguan have just set off such a big case within a few days of taking office, hehe, it seems that our military department and your Qin commander's eight characters really don't match." ”

What did the Yizi Ku Commander think, and said, "Qin Commander, I heard that you were originally a jailer in Turtle City in Zhen County, and then General Hei Yu came out of the customs, so you followed General Hei Yu?" ”

"Fei Lingzhi is right." Zhou Lingguan said lightly: "There is a problem in the warehouse, you really can't pretend to be deaf and dumb, but you should also report it to your boss first, right?" Even if it is not good to report to the principal, it should be reported to the ministry, how can you not know it in advance and help outsiders expose their own shortcomings? Qin Lingzhi, you obviously can't get along with the military department. ”

Fei Qiji, the commander of the C-word library, listened to the words of the two of them and persuaded him: "Don't say a few words, everyone is in the same boat now, don't hurt your own people first." Besides, this matter is not Qin Ling's fault, do you know that there are broken knives in the warehouse, and you still have to pretend to be deaf and dumb? Let's eat Junlu immediately, and we should be loyal to the king, if this thing happens to my C-word library, Fei will not keep his mouth shut. ”

The Dingzi Ku Commander immediately said: "Yes, when Zhou Lingguan said this, I also think things are really weird. Qin Lingyi, what is your fate, why is it that whoever is your boss has to be unlucky? I heard a fortune teller say that there is a kind of person's life count that is very special, whoever gets close to him, there is no good result, that is the life number of the Tiansha Lone Star, Qin Lingzhi should not be the Tiansha Lone Star, right? ”

Qin Xiao hiccuped and said lightly: "Several adults, with all due respect, you have followed Han Tian as an errand in the Treasury Department for so many years, and you really don't know anything about this?" I noticed the problem on the first day I entered the armory, although you are not a person from the armory, you are also in charge of the armory, if you haven't noticed it at all over the years, even a pig won't believe it. Glanced at a few people, and said: "Fei Lingzhi is right, the matter of the loyalty of the king, have you done your duty, you know it in your heart, you don't need to mumble in my ear, Lao Tzu doesn't like to listen." ”

"You're .....!" Zhou Lingzhi was anxious and angry: "Qin Xiao, you speak politely, this is not in your house." ”

Qin Xiao glanced at him, and said indifferently: "People respect me for a foot, I respect people for a foot, you pick your nose and eyes at me, you feel that I am a burden to you, I feel uncomfortable, and I am really not polite to you." He stood up, took a toothpick from the table and put it in his mouth, turned around and walked to a chair, sat down, touched his belly and said, "Heavenly Evil Lone Star?" If I'm really a lonely star, you'd better stay away from me, but don't kill you all then. Feeling that Fei Qiji was not bad, he smiled at Fei Qiji: "Fei Ling, it's not you, don't be surprised." ”
