Chapter 165: Trade-offs
When he heard the name Yang Yuanjiao, Chen Xiaoting's heart couldn't help but tighten.
The Yang family's power in Guangde Mansion is second only to Chen Benxian's Chen family, and the relationship with several lords of the government is irreversible, and its industries are even more numerous.
It is precisely because of his wealth and power that Yang Yuanjiao's influence is not limited to Guangde, and even in Luyang City, he has never given less silver.
And this is not the most troublesome, there is another factor that worries Chen Xiaoting, that is, Yang Yuanjiao has a reputation for raising people.
It is not because of Yang Yuanjiao's power after he becomes a person, but if he is attacked, it is likely to arouse the scolding of the literati students of Guangde Mansion.
As a model among the gentry, Yang Yuanjiao has helped poor students many times, and has a good reputation among the Guangde literati.
Once they learned that their benefactor was trapped by Jinyiwei, these people who had received Yang Yuanjiao's help, and who pretended to be high and despised Jinyiwei, were likely to come out to make trouble.
The so-called scholarly business, as long as there are people who have a heart to provoke a little, these people will come out to do stupid things.
And there are no people in Guangde Mansion who stir up trouble? Chen Xiaoting himself can name a few.
First of all, Chen Benxian, who fornicated with the White Lotus Sect, might jump out, and Yang Yuanjiao's arrest was just an opportunity for him to take advantage of, and he only needed to secretly agitate.
Another one is the Guangde Mansion, the prefect Li Changshan was lost face by Zhou Wenzhu, and he may not be able to see Jinyi Wei at this time.
Chen Benxian represents the people, and Li Changshan represents the official, and if the two of them work together, they can use this to cause a big mess.
"Yang Yuanjiao ......," Chen Xiaoting said in a deep voice.
Then he asked, "Liu Xiangrong, do you know who Yang Yuanjiao is?" How could he do such a thing? β
When he said this, Chen Xiaoting's hand was held on the handle of the knife again, and Liu Xiangrong felt a chill in his heart.
Now that the words have been spoken, not to mention that Liu Xiangrong is telling the truth, he nodded and said: "My lord, what the villain said is true!" β
"Take them all!" Chen Xiaoting said without emotion.
After saying this, he walked outside the study, and Liu Xiangrong shouted hoarsely, saying that Chen Xiaoting should let him go.
Hearing these words, Yun Qingfeng couldn't help but feel like laughing, the business surnamed Liu was doing so much, but the helpless idea was too naΓ―ve.
Regardless of whether Liu Xiangrong confessed today, since Jinyiwei moved his family, there is no possibility of being good at all, because he is just a businessman with no foundation.
What's more, Chen Xiaoqi is a hard-hearted person, how could he let it go because of Liu Xiangrong's pleading, just because it was not a promise.
Zhao Ying didn't think so much at this time, but shouted: "It's all sharp, I have to go to the next place with the adults later, don't miss it!" β
Outside the study, Chen Xiaoting was reporting to Zhang Zhenshan at this time: "My lord, I have already asked, Liu Xiangrong is Yang Yuanjiao's instigation!" β
Zhang Zhenshan nodded and said, "I already know!" β
Seeing Zhang Zhenshan's gloomy face, Chen Xiaoting said: "My lord, the Yang family tree has deep roots, let's wait for a while...... Do you want to catch it? β
At this time, Zhang Zhenshan is also thinking about this problem!
He has been mixed in Guangde for so many years, and naturally he knows the energy represented by the Yang family, which is the object of the prefect Li Changshan's politeness.
It is not difficult to move the Yang family, but what is difficult is the serious consequences that may be caused by this.
The literati and civil officials hated Jinyiwei, and the impeachment of the above table did not stop, but they were all suppressed by the emperor.
Jinyiwei will get this infamy for catching corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and Yang Yuanjiao has a good reputation in Guangde, which makes it easier for him to prick the nerves of some people.
At this time, Zhang Zhenshan needed to consider the attitude of Zhou Wenzhu of the hundred households to this, as well as the views of the thousands of households in Luyang.
After all, the errand is done for the boss, if the errand is done but the people above are not happy, then the errand cannot be continued.
Zhang Zhenshan was undecided for a while, and Chen Xiaoting called: "Your Excellency...... Waiting for your lord's orders! β
With his hands behind his back, Zhang Zhenshan looked at the sunset that had fallen on the eaves, and his face was entangled at this time.
It takes a lot of political wisdom to grasp this matter, but it is difficult for Zhang Zhenshan to look at the problem from the perspective of Shen Yue of Qianhu at this time, because he cannot reach that level.
After looking at the two people in front of him, Zhang Zhenshan's heart lit up, and he asked Chen Xiaoting: "What do you think about this matter?" β
Zhang Zhenshan is absolutely Chen Xiaoting's political wisdom is higher than himself, but he didn't expect it to come in handy now.
Asked by Zhang Zhenshan, Chen Xiaoting said with a sad face: "My lord, I'm afraid I can't say anything about this matter!" β
Zhang Zhenshan's face turned pale, and he said: "But it doesn't matter, let's sum it up together!" β
In fact, Chen Xiaoting already had an idea, and Fang Cai's sentence was just throwing bricks and attracting jade.
got Zhang Zhenshan's "encouragement", and only listened to him: "My lord, you said to the humble post before, Huang Gonggong issued a strict order in this case, requiring us to strictly investigate!" β
"Our Jinyi Wei is on an errand for the emperor, and Huang Gonggong is from the palace on behalf of the emperor, what he means is what the emperor means!"
Hearing these words, Zhang Zhenshan couldn't help but tremble, the truth is indeed the case.
If it was because he found a literati, he Zhang Zhenshan threw a rat trap and made no progress in the case, then how could he explain to the people who returned to the East Factory of the Thousand Households?
Thinking of this, I only heard Chen Xiaoting say again: "You also know that Master Hu must be very unhappy in the death palace, just waiting for the results of our verification!" β
"How dare we Qianhu adults slack off? provoked Huang Gonggong to dislike him, wouldn't there be no hope for the Lord of Qianhu to return to the capital? β
In the last remarks, Chen Xiaoting really persuaded Zhang Zhenshan!
Whether it is to follow the emperor's will or to proceed from the personal interests of Shen Yue of Qianhu, it is imperative to continue the investigation.
On the side, Gou Ming'an listened to Chen Xiaoting say this in a fog, but he didn't understand anything.
It's just that the investigation involves thousands of adults, why is it also involved in Dongchang and the palace, and then he realized that although he was involved, he didn't know anything.
At this time, Zhang Zhenshan said: "I didn't expect you to remember that Lord Qianhu still has to go back to the capital!" β
So some people are born to climb up, Zhang Zhenshan remembered that he just casually said that Shen Qianhu was from the capital, but he didn't expect to be remembered by Chen Xiaoting and not to say it, and he figured out so many things.
Yes, for Shen Yue's deputy Qianhu, if the errand that the emperor is concerned about is done well, it is not impossible to become the commander of the embassy.
"A small Yang family, compared with the future of thousands of households, is not worth mentioning, I believe Zhou Baihu also thinks so!" Zhang Zhenshan said in a deep voice.
Then, he ordered: "Gou Xiaoqi, the people of the Liu family have been handed over to you, the father and son of the Liu family, you sent someone to escort back to the prison of the hundred households, and the others are all detained in the Liu Mansion!" β
Since you don't understand anything, you can just do it...... Gou Ming'an said freely: "Obey orders!" β
Zhang Zhenshan then said: "Chen Xiaoqi, this place is all handed over to Gou Xiaoqi, you immediately take someone to Yang's house to get someone, it's best to pry something out of his mouth!" β
Since you have chosen to do it, you must have the momentum of lightning and not give people who hide deeper time to react.
"Don't worry, my lord, the humble position will definitely knock the mouth of the surname Yang open!" Chen Xiaoting assured.
Zhang Zhenshan nodded, and then said, "You guys should do their own things...... The official should also go back to the hundred households immediately and explain the situation to Zhou Baihu! β
Looking at the sunset that could no longer be seen on the eaves, Chen Xiaoting knew that when the sun rose again tomorrow, the entire Guangde Mansion would shake.
In this era when everything is inferior, moving a literati with a great reputation can set off a storm that is much more ferocious than two insignificant businessmen.
