The court, when Chen Mo arrived, he felt a gloomy cloud, the three dukes and nine qing, one by one looked depressed, these days, the rumors in Chang'an City have not stopped, from the three dukes to the nine qing, one by one has become the object of criticism after tea and dinner, but Chen Mo, who was attacked by rumors at the beginning, now no one pays attention to it, even if there are occasional, it is mostly good words, after all, there are such a large number of immoral people in the court, why say that one is running around for the people, even if it is pointed out by thousands of people, he is still busy with disaster relief, Are people who engage in people's livelihood a person without virtue?

With the ministers above the entire court, Chen Mo's majesty is highlighted, maybe God will punish him, because this group of people who are not virtuous, not to mention the people, many scholars have no good impression of these ***** in the court, otherwise it would not be that Chen Mo just came back yesterday, and there would be a bridge where scholars blocked the road and asked for his life.

Seeing Chen Mo going to court, a group of courtiers hurriedly greeted him.

"Bodao ......" Zhao Wen looked at Chen Mo and said with some guilt: "Now in Chang'an City, there are many rumors from nowhere, and I hope Bodao can investigate this matter thoroughly." ”

When Chen Mo was framed by rumors, Zhao Wen didn't stand up, but now that he has realized the pain of rumors, facing Chen Mo at this moment, he is somewhat guilty and empty-hearted.

"Situ rest assured, this matter has been known, this time I came back, it is to deal with this matter, since two months ago, someone began to frame me, I thought it was just for me, but now it seems that it is for the entire court." Chen Mo nodded and said solemnly: "This matter must be investigated!" ”

Huangfu Song opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything, his relationship with Chen Mo was not as close as Zhao Wen, he went to see Chen Mo yesterday and had a closed door, but at this time, he couldn't pull down and pleaded.

I knew a little about Chen Mo's rumors before, but when the rumors appeared later, Huangfu Song felt that it might be Chen Mo's ghost, but just like Chen Mo couldn't do anything about the rumors before, they had no evidence to prove that Chen Mo did it, but looking at Chang'an, there seems to be no one else who can do this kind of thing except Chen Mo, and judging from the results, the biggest benefit of this matter is to help Chen Mo correct his name.

But even if it's really Chen Mo, there's no way to do anything about him, just like when Chen Mo was attacked by rumors two months ago, Chen Mo didn't say a word, looking like he was unlucky, many people, including Huangfu Song, were a little gloating at the beginning, and now, whether Chen Mo did it or not, they seem to be able to only admit that they are unlucky.

When the rest of the officials heard this, they were somewhat weak-hearted, they naturally knew about Chen Mo's rumors at the beginning, and some people were still involved, and now Chen Mo is talking about this matter, and many people feel that it is not good.

"If you want to investigate, you have to start from the root, I think that the person who spread the rumors two months ago is the culprit of this matter, and can set off such a big incident, I suspect that there must be people from the DPRK and China involved, as long as these people are found out, the rumors can be self-defeating!" Chen Mo looked at the ministers and smiled, "What do you think?" ”

Silence after being beaten? That's not Chen Mo's character, he didn't move before, because if he investigated deeply, this Manchu Dynasty Secretary would inevitably stop it, and it would not be beneficial to his reputation, but now, if you want to investigate, you should first investigate from the person who spread rumors about me, and if you hold the military and political power in Guanzhong, you deserve to be scolded? Calculated?

If this matter is stopped this time, and the matter is calm, something may happen next time, and they must be hurt, otherwise this matter will not be over.

Everyone looked at each other when they heard this, and finally Huangfu Song nodded, obviously the actions of those people before, although Chen Mo didn't say it, but it angered Chen Mo, the people in the court, more or less, provided convenience, so to say that Chen Mo made such a big deal this time hurt the innocent, that is not necessarily, even if they are not involved, these people have the intention of adding fuel to the fire, Chen Mo just targeted the rumors at the three princes and nine qings, not to say that others are innocent, that is because these people are big, and their reputation is too high, It may not be a good thing for yourself, and if you pursue it too much, it will make people panic in the whole court.

"Everything, please Bodao." Zhao Wen sighed, on weekdays, Chen Mo's humble and gentle, and gentlemanly image gave him a lot of illusions, this time, he realized Chen Mo's hideous side, and flipped the table with a smile on his face, but everyone had nothing to say, which was much more difficult to deal with than Dong Zhuo, Li Dao and others.

"The autumn harvest is coming, this year is a dry year, there are many things to deal with, and there is no skill to be done, how can Yuan Changgong help me in this matter?" Chen Mo looked at Zhong Xuan and said with a smile.

"It's fine." In the face of Chen Mo's invitation, Zhong Miao could only nod, this time, in fact, was provoked by the Guan Longshi clan, he was really affected by the pond fish, but looking at Chen Mo's current meaning, it is obvious that he wants to take this opportunity to split the court and let the courtiers who were originally in a group disperse, Zhong Xuan, as the representative of the Yingchuan scholars, obviously Chen Mo wants Zhong Xuan to stand up and help him, and lead the Yingchuan scholars in the court to compete with the Guanlong scholars.

And Zhong Miao has no choice, if he doesn't do it, he believes that Chen Mo is not a good man and a woman, and his reputation is afraid that it will be directly ruined, and at that time, even if he resigns and returns to Yingchuan, his reputation will probably become the biggest stain on his life.

However, Zhong Miao is not too angry, firstly, this matter is too wide-ranging, if he really does not give up, I am afraid that it will be more tragic in the end, Chen Mo needs the court to fight for more political interests for himself, so he will not allow the court to be destroyed, secondly, Chen Mo's means, since he wants to win himself over, he will definitely leave a way back for himself, and thirdly, Chen Mo's calmness and skill and decisiveness in this incident make Zhong Miao quite appreciated, this is the courage and means that people who do great things should have.

Since Chen Mo has decided to separate the forces in the court, even if Zhong Mo disagrees, Chen Mo will definitely push other forces out, since this is the case, why not do it yourself?

The ministers have no opinion on this, they have suffered from rumors for two months, and their reputation is almost gone, at this time, everyone only hopes to end it quickly.

However, Chen Mo was not in a hurry, and asked Zhong Miao to thoroughly investigate the authenticity of these rumors one by one, use evidence to refute the rumors for the ministers, and at the same time order someone to start a thorough investigation of the things that framed him in the first place.

In fact, when Chen Mo's rumors appeared at that time, Chen Mo was already secretly investigating the root cause while muddying the waters, but there was no further action.

Now that the time is ripe, the evidence found at that time and the people who were arrested can naturally be taken out, of course, this requires a process in front of the ministers, and you can't be in a hurry, anyway, it's not you who is in a hurry now.

The rumors in Chang'an City, as Zhong Xuan continued to find evidence to prove that the rumors were fictitious, began to stabilize a little, but the voice of doubt did not disappear, and some people asked the court to come up with the mastermind behind the scenes to prove themselves.

"General, this is information sent by Taichang and others, and it should be the mastermind behind this rumor." Zhong Miao handed a list to Chen Mo, knelt down and said, "I don't know what the lord wants to do?" ”

Chen Mo looked at the list and smiled, the list is not complete, but this matter has come to this point, and it is indeed time to stop, and it is impossible for him to really abolish the imperial court.

"This Hou Wen, in the process of disaster relief, has violated the yang and yin many times, and has even deducted grain and grass for not delivering food on time." Chen Mo nodded the name at the beginning, shook his head and said, "Such a virtuous person, I don't know why he became a servant of the imperial history?" ”

"This person is virtuous, but he is criticized, but the Hou family is also a big family of Fufeng." Zhong Xuan nodded.

"Blatantly framing the three princes and Jiuqing of the dynasty, how big can his family be able to bring things down?" Chen Mo asked rhetorically.

Zhong Miao nodded and said that he understood, if he wanted to fight, he would fight the biggest one, who let Hou Wen participate in this matter, and he had fought against Chen Mo everywhere before?

"In addition......" Chen Mo crossed out two more names and said: "This matter will be closed by these three people, but this list, secretly released, can also be regarded as some deterrence to these people." ”

Zhong Miao looked at Chen Mo and nodded deeply, "The general is smart." ”

These people on this list are equivalent to being abandoned, Chen Mo only chose three people to close the case, which is equivalent to letting these people go, if these people don't know, maybe they will follow to deal with Chen Mo in the future, but as soon as this list is released, it is equivalent to telling them that they are regarded as outcasts, and Chen Mo spared their lives, invisibly, there will be many more supporters on Chen Mo's side, above this court, Chen Mo's power will be greater, and it will be difficult for the Guan Sergeant clan to join forces to deal with Chen Mo after this incident.

This hand directly separated the Guan Long family, which was ruthless enough, but also clever enough.

"The rest of the things are up to Mr. Lao Yuanchang." Chen Mo smiled.

"That's how it should be." Zhong Miao smiled and nodded, got up and said goodbye: "Without further ado, this matter can't go on any longer, so I'll do it." ”

Zhong Miao is also a member of the suffering from rumors, and now that Chen Mo has spoken, this matter can obviously be over, Zhong Miao is naturally a little impatient.

Looking at the back of Zhong Xuan's departure, Chen Mo stretched his muscles, after this incident, the court should be much more stable, but the Son of Heaven is not in the court, after all, it is a little unjustifiable, this year's drought, although it is a disaster, but it also gives Chen Mo the opportunity to sort out Guanzhong, as long as the next year is not too bad, Guanzhong will quickly stabilize after this matter, and when the time comes, it is time for him to consider taking back the Son of Heaven from Cao Cao's hands.

"Lord, Yanzhou Emergency!" Dian Wei came in with a roll of bamboo slips and bowed to Chen Mo.

"Yanzhou?" Chen Mo frowned when he heard this, took the bamboo slip and opened it, and quickly looked at it, and the expression on his face gradually became cheerful: "Brother, this matter is making trouble, why bother...... Haha~"
