What happened in the political hall soon spread to Li Tong.

When he learned the news, he was staying in the Lintai Foreign Office, and he was immediately angry, so he immediately stood up and went to the outside of the hall.

Seeing this, Wang Fangqing, who served as the young eunuch of Lintai, hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade him: "Your Highness, please calm your anger, Su Gan has served both inside and outside, and his reputation is not weak, so this time his grievances are exposed, or he has other feelings." His Royal Highness rashly entered the province to question, and those who did not know may sit on the evil words! ”

"What kind of farewell can there be, this old thing in Kansai has a family background and evil words! The water supervisor has asked to see him several times, and he has refused a lot, and it is already a dereliction of duty to waste his business, so slander should not be done, I am really cowardly and can be bullied! ”

Dongguan Shangshu Su Gan, who was also born in Guanzhong, is the grandson of Su Wei, the former prime minister of Sui, and one of the representatives of Guanlong in the court. For these so-called old ministers of the Tang family, Li Tong has always stayed away from them and tried to avoid direct conflicts with them.

This time, if it weren't for Tang Xiuzhong's several visits to the Shangshudong official office to ask for a meeting, and the fortifications of the dredging canal could not be delayed, Li Tong would not have been able to come forward by himself.

If he really wants to suppress people, he can find the Winter Official Office of Southern Province by himself, or go directly to the mansion to see Su Gan, and let Yang Zaisi coordinate from it, he just hopes to have something to say, if there is any contradiction or misunderstanding, don't directly target it, and negotiate to solve it.

He felt that he had given these old Guan Long a face, but he didn't expect that his face was worthless in the eyes of the other party, but he accused him of favoritism and stealing his skills. The fuck credit didn't come out of nowhere, and you didn't do it, and you didn't let anyone else do it?

Of course, Wang Fangqing also felt that Su Gan's accusation was really out of proportion, not to mention anything else, the reform of Caoyun alone was a rare serious operation in the internal affairs of the imperial court in recent years, and it had achieved initial results, but it was accused of being a private plan to manipulate power on behalf of the king, which was unacceptable.

However, it was not without reason for him to stop the acting king, but he said earnestly: "Now that the situation in the DPRK and China is anxious, His Royal Highness can focus on the important affairs of the national economy outside of the dispute, and it is really not appropriate to meddle rashly." Su Ganqi's argument is indeed disgusting, and everyone can see the bias, and the perverse argument for a while is really not worthy of His Highness's positive response, and the public opinion of the courtiers will naturally not be spared. ”

Wang Fangqing's reason is also very simple, the criminal cases that are rising in the court are aimed at the courtiers of the imperial heirs, and Su Gan holds an important position in the court, and he may already be in the sequence of being purged.

If the acting king targets Su Gan because of his momentary will, it is very likely that he will be used by the kings of the Wu clan as a sharp blade to cut off the emperor's henchmen. They can use this to take out the Dongguan Shangshu Su Gan, and they can use this as a basis to continue to expand the attack and involve more courtiers.

Once this happens, it will be difficult for the acting king to get out again, and the imperial heirs may not regard the acting king as a direct opponent in order to protect themselves, and then the dispute will continue to expand, and then it will affect the reform of the Cao Shi, which has already made a good start. Many personnel arrangements will inevitably be affected, and the gains outweigh the losses.

Of course, Li Tong also understands that he is not good at this stage, but he can't bear to be slapped in the face like this, he sat back in the table and groaned for a while, and then said to Wang Fangqing: "Later, Changshi will enter the political hall and make a little expression to Yang Xianggong on my behalf, I am really embarrassed that the evil feelings and demons have affected him." By the way, see Doulu Xianggong again, and ask him for me, if he wants to lose peace with me! ”

After the anger in his heart subsided for a moment, he thought about how to use the matter. Directly holding Su Gan accountable in person is not only undignified but also meaningless, if you want to be held accountable, ask Dou Lu Qinwang, the boss of Guan Longxun's nobles.

Although Doulu Qinwang doesn't seem to want to be the boss either, who put him in that position? Your little brother, you can't control it yourself, and I'll do it with you if I get in a hurry!

Wang Fangqing saw that His Royal Highness had regained his composure, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked for instructions: "When you ask to see Xianggong Doulu, do you mention it together?" ”

Li Tong nodded after hearing this, and after he left the political hall, he came to Lintai Province to discuss with Wang Fangqing the matter of recommending him to Wenchangtai in Shangshu Province. Lintai is a sick house, and it doesn't make much sense for Wang Fangqing to stay here.

In terms of seniority, he has a clear career, and he has also been in charge of the party, which can be regarded as a rare cadre of his own side. It just so happens that there is such a demand right now, taking advantage of the achievements that have been made in Caoyun affairs, to strive for Wang Fangqing to serve as the left and right of Wenchang, and to coordinate the Cao Si of Southern Province, there is no need to ask outsiders for help in everything.

Originally, Li Tong and Wang Fangqing were still discussing who should be recommended by the DPRK and China to be safe, but Su Gan bumped into him.

This is a simple matter, and this can be used as a handle to coerce Dou Lu Qinwang to recommend Wang Fangqing in the political hall, plus the results of the Caoyun reform are obvious to all, and a group of middle-level courtiers can add fuel to the fire and finalize the matter as soon as possible.

Doulu Qinwang is already trembling and struggling at the moment, and there is a high probability that he will not dare to risk offending the acting king again. If he angered the acting king because of Su Gan's momentary anger, and let the acting king also stand on the opposite side, he, the prime minister, was afraid that he would be able to do it, and even had to consider whether the entire family could survive the current turmoil smoothly.

The two of them have just agreed here, and Zuo Qianniuwei's general Dou Lu Zhensong has hurried into the Lintai official office, and after he entered the court, he said that there was an urgent case for the Wei Mansion.

Qianniuwei has always been idle and boring, and what kind of urgency can play, Dou Lu Zhensong hurriedly came to see him, nothing more than to be a lobbyist on behalf of his cousin Dou Lu Qinwang. Li Tong gave Wang Fangqing a look, signaling him to do things according to the plan, and he got up and walked back to Qianniuwei Mansion with Doulu Zhensong.

Not to mention that Li Tong had already discussed the plan here, after the Sixing Temple came to Junchen to get the news from Liang Wangwu Sansi, he immediately summoned the next group of party members and ordered: "Immediately investigate the relevant personnel of Dongguan Shangshu Su Gan, whether we can be rich and powerful, we should be in this person!" ”

This time it was reactivated, and Lai Junchen looked more arrogant than in previous years, but he couldn't say what he was suffering about.

Originally, the accusation of the emperor's heir was a conspiracy with the King of Wei, but he finally launched it here, but the King of Wei was placed under house arrest in the Wei Temple, and he could not provide him with any assistance on the scene, so that Lai Junchen had to fall into the dilemma of fighting alone.

Now he looks vicious, but in fact, he is also using such a posture to deter the times, so as to buy himself more time.

After entering the Sixing Temple, he questioned the case day and night, but all he could catch were some small fish and shrimp, and tried to weave and besiege some important people several times, but either the key evidence was insufficient, or he was resisted by the courtiers.

Even the Sixing Temple where he was working, led by Shaoqing Du Jingjian, a group of colleagues also restricted him a lot, so that he could not play freely. And some cases that have already been closed and sentenced, when they are submitted to the Qiu Guan of the Criminal Department, are frequently remanded for retrial by Qiu Guan Lang Zhong Xu Yougong.

Unable to find any important targets for a long time, Lai Junchen was also worried that His Majesty the Holy Emperor's patience would be gradually worn out, and he no longer paid attention to the case he was trying against. Once he loses the attention and protection of His Majesty the Holy Emperor, Lai Junchen knows that his death is not far off, so he urgently needs to make a big goal.

Dongguan Shangshu Su Gan has enough weight, his official position is not low, and he is the leading figure in the Guanlong Dynasty, and he has contacts with many Guanlong people.

So this person was originally at the top of the list in Junchen's heart, and now he has been summoned by King Liang, and even better is that this Su Gan has just offended the acting king. If Lai Junchen can't put it in prison and put it in death, then there is no need to mix it up.

The party members who came to Junchen were themselves prepared, and as soon as they were instructed to do things, they soon wrote a long indictment detailing many of Su Gan's crimes. And one of the most vicious is that Su Gan once participated in the rebellion of the Li Tang clan, and had frequent correspondence with Li Shu, the son of Li Yuanjia, the king of Han.

The reason why this old crime was invoked instead of introducing Su Ganqiang into the case of the emperor's heir who Junchen was pushing at the moment was because many Guanlong people were blocked by Li Zhaode, the prime minister of Xijing, and Lai Junchen couldn't grasp it at all.

The second is that Lai Junchen started out as a whistleblower for the Li Tang clan, so he knows the inside story of this case that has been going on for several years.

When Li Yuanjia, the king of Han, was the king of Xu, Su Gan served as the secretary of his palace, and the two families had a lot of friendships.

In the old years of Tianzhu, Lai Junchen was busy hunting the prime minister in the court and concocting unjust prisons, while Su Gan served as the assassin of other states in Hebei, and was not listed as the target of the first sequence by Lai Junchen, so these old things sank into the case and were not used to be cited before they could be cited, and they could be used for emergency purposes now.

Lai Junchen knew that His Majesty the Holy Emperor had zero tolerance for the Li Tang clan and Guan Longxungui to collude with each other, and once they found clues, they would be strictly investigated to the end. When Su Gan is introduced into the criminal case, how to discuss his crime in detail, it depends on Junchen's presence.

With this copy of the crime in hand, Lai Junchen went straight to the straight hall of the Punishment Temple, put the case file on the desk of Du Jingjian, the secretary of the Punishment Shaoqing, and said: "The new hidden situation of the new reverse case, please Shaoqing approve it, and immediately arrest the criminal!" ”

When Du Jingjian heard this, he was both a little irritable and curious, this guy Lai Junchen has always been arbitrary, and he has never asked for instructions when arresting criminals, why did he put him in his eyes today?

But when he unfolded the case file and hurriedly glanced at it, his face changed suddenly, and he said in a condensed voice: "The case is serious, is there any crime to prove?" ”

"Shaoqing has also been in the Criminal Division for a long time, and the criminal is still at large, without trial, what kind of crime can he talk about?"

Seeing Du Jingjian's sudden change of color, Lai Junchen sneered, grabbed the case file in his hand, and continued: "Since Shaoqing doesn't dare to approve it, then go there in person!" In order to solve the case as soon as possible, sometimes I don't have time to go to the court to make a report, and please don't blame Shaoqing! ”

He didn't plan to let Du Jingjian approve it at all, but just used this matter to warn Du Jingjian, Lao Tzu can make a big incident at will, if you obstruct it again, you may fall into it at any time!
