Chapter 185: Conspiracy
"Ahem......" The two praised each other for a while, which made Xiao Shujun feel uncomfortable, and quickly pretended to cough to interrupt.
"Didn't His Highness just say that he was going to meet Lord Yan in the main hall, why did he come to the pavilion? Tell me to look for it for a while. Qin Kexin was going to leave after saying a few more words, not disturbing the conversation between Xiao Shujun and Yan Qingyun.
"Oh! It was the lower officials who felt that the pavilion of King Qin's Mansion had a unique flavor, and wanted to take this opportunity to sit here, so he was waiting for His Royal Highness King Qin here. Yan Qingyun explained aloud.
"I see, Lord Yan is really temperamental! I won't bother you to talk about things, let's go first! With that, Qin Kexin was ready to leave.
However, he was stopped by Yan Qingyun: "The princess is slow, the princess came just in time, and the lower officials just have some things to ask for." ”
"Lord Yan, please speak." Qin Kexin didn't think much about it.
Xiao Shujun looked at Yan Qingyun with a serious face, and signaled Yan Qingyun not to say something that he didn't get, but Yan Qingyun didn't seem to see it, and still said to Qin Kexin: "I don't know if the princess has been in the Qin Palace's mansion for so long, and she doesn't care about the financial power of the Qin Palace." ”
As soon as Yan Qingyun's words came out, Qin Kexin felt that something was wrong, and Yan Qingyun must have some intention of coming here. "What do you mean, Lord Yan?" Qin Kexin didn't know how to answer, for fear of misleading Xiao Shujun's matter, so he had to ask rhetorically.
"Enough! Yan Qingyun, don't go too far! Xiao Shujun, who has always been steady, was a little anxious, he really didn't want Qin Kexin to get involved in these rights and wrongs, this Yan Qingyun didn't know how to ask Qin Kexin about these things.
Yan Qingyun, who had never seen Xiao Shujun like this, was shocked at first, but quickly adjusted.
"Your Highness doesn't need to be angry, the lower official just asked casually,......" Yan Qingyun explained, he didn't want to offend Xiao Shujun.
"You go back first, and the king will come to you later." Xiao Shujun told Qin Kexin that if he wanted to protect her, he had to keep him away from right and wrong.
Although Qin Kexin was worried, Yan Qingyun was still there, and she didn't ask Xiao Shujun about some things, so she had to go back first.
"Then I'll step back first." With that, he took Yu'er and left.
Xiao Shujun and Yan Qingyun, who were sitting opposite each other, were left behind.
"It's not that the lower officials deliberately target His Highness, there is evidence that points to His Highness as a corrupt person." As smart as Yan Qingyun, of course he saw that Xiao Shujun didn't want Qin Kexin to know about it, so Qin Kexin left, and he continued to talk about the topic just now with Xiao Shujun.
It turned out that Yan Qingyun came this time because of the corruption case.
There is no conclusive evidence now, but all the evidence inexplicably points to Xiao Shujun, and Yan Qingyun is very puzzled.
However, Yan Qingyun actually hid a little selfishness, Yan Qingyun took Xiao Shujun as a role model in the political arena when he was not yet the head of the household department, of course, he was inclined to believe that Xiao Shujun could not do such a thing as corruption, so I came here to remind Xiao Shujun first.
Yan Qingyun also knew that if Xiao Shujun was corrupt, it would most likely be used to secretly raise soldiers, and then it would not be just a matter of corruption. At that time, the consequences will be unbearable, so let's wait and see the situation.
After all, Yan Qingyun is not stupid, he knows that the emperor is mediocre and incompetent, if necessary, he can also ......
"What evidence points to this king? And since Lord Yan is suspicious of this king, how can he dare to come to the Qin Palace's mansion to see this king before there is no evidence, he is not afraid of startling the grass and snakes, and he is not afraid of the king killing people and destroying his mouth? Xiao Shujun didn't panic at all, but scared Yan Qingyun. Because Xiao Shujun has long been accustomed to this kind of drama that has been designed and wronged, he has learned the ability to see and dismantle moves.
"Don't, don't...... Why are you still killing people? Yan Qingyun was really frightened, waved his hand again and again, and continued: "Xia Guan, but I heard that the people in the household department are rumored to have used some more silver taels in the palace when His Royal Highness went out of the palace to build a mansion, but there is no conclusive evidence. And even if it is really His Highness's corruption, the lower officials will not necessarily report His Highness to the emperor! ”
"What do you mean?" Xiao Shujun didn't understand what Yan Qingyun was trying to express when he said later.
"The lower officials can follow His Royal Highness when necessary, after all, His Royal Highness is the desire of the people......" Yan Qingyun said bluntly.
"Lord Yan thinks too much, there will be no such time, and this king has nothing to do with this corruption case, the silver used when he left the palace to build the mansion is both taken by this king, Lord Yan should spend more time to find out." Xiao Shujun and his dislike for Yan Qingyun to say this.
It's just that there are more people who think the same way as him, and the emperor will be suspicious of him, and he never thought of letting her follow him.
It's just that Xiao Shujun didn't expect that Yan Qingyun, who was upright on the surface, was still a lover of personality, and he liked such people a little.
Yan Qingyun saw that he couldn't talk about anything with Xiao Shujun anymore, so he decided to leave, "It's the lower official who is abrupt, Your Highness don't blame, the lower official will retire first, and he will investigate the case well when he goes back." ”
"Master Yan, go slowly! Gu Liang, send Lord Yan. Xiao Shujun also felt that there was no need to continue talking.
Yan Qingyun came out of the Qin Palace, feeling that he did not come in vain this time, regardless of whether Xiao Shujun was a corrupt person or not, he at least expressed his heart to Xiao Shujun, and this intention will not change, in Yan Qingyun's heart, Xiao Shujun is more suitable than the emperor to govern the world.
As soon as Yan Qingyun left, Xiao Shujun hurried to Soft Xiangyuan, he was afraid that Qin Kexin would worry about him, and he had to explain to make him feel at ease.
As soon as Xiao Shujun arrived at Soft Xiangyuan, he saw Qin Kexin pacing back and forth, looking worried.
"What did Master Yan mean by asking me just now? Is it related to corruption? As soon as Qin Kexin saw Xiao Shujun, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked. The more she thought about it when she came back from the pavilion just now, the more wrong she became, and she wanted to quickly ask Xiao Shujun what was going on.
Xiao Shujun didn't want to tell Qin Kexin about these things, so as not to worry her, but now it seems that if she doesn't tell Qin Kexin, Qin Kexin will be more worried, so she found a lighter excuse and said, "Lord Yan just came to Qin Wangfu to investigate the corruption case, and the princess doesn't need to be overly nervous." ”
As he spoke, he rubbed Qin Kexin's head, and after hearing Xiao Shujun say this, Qin Kexin was a little relieved, "Your Highness, don't do anything else." ”
"The princess is worried about this king?" Xiao Shujun's smile grew.
"Count...... Sort of. Qin Kexin is rarely not hard-mouthed.
Xiao Shujun was even more happy when he heard this, "Don't worry, the princess, this king will not have an accident, who will pamper the princess of this king if something happens to this king?" ”
Xiao Shujun's doting words were explicit, and Yu'er on the side smirked when she heard it, but Qin Kexin was so ashamed that she didn't know what to do, so she quickly turned around and fled, muttering shamelessly to Xiao Shujun while running......
"Princess! Where are you going? Yu'er saw Qin Kexin running away and hurried to catch up.
Xiao Shujun looked at the master and servant who ran and chased each other, and was shocked that this picture was so harmonious, if only Qin Kexin could be so carefree all the time.
Early the next morning, Xiao Shujun and Xiao Shuwei went to the court as usual, and they didn't think about what would happen to the court, but it turned out that Xiao Shujun and Xiao Shuwei were thinking less this time.
"Lord Yan obviously found out that King Qin embezzled silver taels when he went out of the palace to build a mansion, why didn't we hide it and not report it?" was about to retreat from the dynasty, and Lord Qi of the household department saw that Yan Qingyun did not move, and he was a little breathless.
As soon as Lord Qi said this, everyone in the court was in an uproar, firstly, because of whether Xiao Shujun was corrupt or not, and secondly, because he couldn't believe that this Lord Qi dared to fight against King Qin on the surface.
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Xiao Shuwei was a little anxious when she heard this.
Xiao Shujun hurriedly signaled Xiao Shuwei not to worry, and he looked at Yan Qingyun with a dangerous gaze. Yesterday, Yan Qingyun told Yan Qingyun that he used the silver taels that should have belonged to him, and asked Yan Qingyun to go back and check it carefully.
Yan Qingyun has always acted cautiously, why was this matter brought to the table today without any evidence. Xiao Shujun looked at Yan Qingyun with a warning eye, it was best not for him to make a ghost.
However, Yan Qingyun was also stunned now, he didn't tell the ministers of the household department that Xiao Shujun must have been corrupt, and it was impossible for them to mention this matter in the court, why did the adults mention this matter in the court.
Xiao Shujun saw that Yan Qingyun's face was also full of suspicion, and he knew that this matter was not Yan Qingyun's doing, but what the intention of this Lord Qi was, Xiao Shujun had no way of knowing.
"King Ning, don't worry, who has a household department in this financial matter, Lord Qi said that His Royal Highness King Qin is corrupt, it's really impossible! And General Ben thinks about it, the huge corruption case that Lord Yan said before will not also be related to King Qin. Sun Dongliang will really find an opportunity to step on someone, and take advantage of Xiao Shujun's suspicion of corruption, so he will buckle a bigger hat on Xiao Shujun, which makes it difficult not to think about it.
"General Sun, don't spew blood!" Xiao Shuwei couldn't bear it.
Xiao Shujun was also secretly disgusted, this Sun Dongliang wanted to put a hat on his head, maybe the Lord Qi just now was Sun Dongliang's person. After all, if that Lord Qi didn't have a backer, he wouldn't dare to blatantly fight against him.
But that Lord Qi is too simple, Sun Dongliang just treats him as a chess piece, and he is in the dark in the dark. If anything, you have to find Naqi-sama's head. However, for a stupid person like Lord Qi, Xiao Shujun would not bother to fight him, a stupid person has his own ......
"Alright! What a noise! I'm still here! Since it is a case handled by Yan Aiqing, Yan Aiqing will talk about it, what is going on? "The emperor came out to preside over the overall situation.
Of course, the emperor hopes that Xiao Shujun has something to do with whether it is big corruption or small corruption, so that Xiao Shujun's reputation will become stinky, and then he will not be the real popular favor, which is a heart disease that has plagued the emperor for many years.
Yan Qingyun, who was suddenly named by the emperor, hurriedly retracted his cranky thoughts and said: "Whether there was corruption when His Royal Highness King Qin went out of the palace to build a mansion remains to be verified, and the minister can't assert it now, besides, although the construction of the Qin Palace, His Royal Highness King Qin, is magnificent, but the phone bill is within a controllable range, and His Royal Highness the King of Qin will not be corrupt because ......of this matter."
