Chapter 49: Centrifugation

The matter of nursery rhymes was reported by Chun Yuchuan on the second day, and Zhao Huan ordered Nie Gan to investigate and deal with the matter, clear the rumors in the city, and severely punish the initiators. Nie Yan received the order, and before he could say his words, he heard Ouyang Jie come out and say, "Your Majesty, there is something wrong with this matter being investigated by the Great Priest." ”

Zhao Huan looked at him, his brows furrowed slightly, "What's wrong?" ”

"The Tingwei Department is subordinate to the Great Commander, if you let the same department investigate and deal with it, it will be even more ruin and damage Your Majesty's reputation, and the minister suggests that it is best to hand over this matter to Guangluxun for investigation."

In that nursery rhyme, it is not only Zhao Huan's mediocrity that attacks "wealth", but also scolds Ouyang Jie by name, it is impossible for him to be indifferent and let Zhao Huan arrange it.

And Guangluxun has his own army, which is not controlled by Chun Yuchuan or Nie Gan, and more importantly, Guanglu doctor Xiao Yi is a member of the Ouyang clan. This is also the reason why Chun Yujia has not dared to act rashly for so many years, even if he is a big Sima and has many soldiers and horses, but the number of Yulin in the palace should not be underestimated, I am afraid that before people have even stepped into the forbidden middle half a step, they will be killed by Yulin's random arrows. Chun Yu Jiajun wanted to learn from Zhao Huan who forced Emperor Gong Xi to mourn back then, but the difference was not a little bit of a star. Therefore, he wants to win over the Ouyang clan, and the easiest way to win over is to marry.

"Your Majesty, Da Situ's words are unfair, and the minister and He Kuan have no intersection, how can they ignore the law and discipline and trap Your Majesty in a disadvantageous place?" Nie Yan spoke generously, with a look of anger on his face.

"I'm just saying that if the big priest handles this matter, it will fall into the mouth, when you say that you will bend the law for personal gain, Lord Sikou, be cautious in your words and deeds!" Ouyang Jie choked back coldly.

Seeing this, Zhao Huan knew that Ouyang Jie was framed and resentful, but as soon as Nie Yan took real power, he was rejected by Ouyang Jie with a word, and it would be difficult to establish prestige in the court in the future, he thought about it and said calmly: "The judicial investigation and arrest of the officials is the duty of the Tingwei Department, and this matter is a foreign matter, and it is not suitable to work Guangluxun, so it is more appropriate to hand it over to the chief secretary." ”

Hearing this, Chun Yuchuan couldn't help laughing, looking up at his forbearant brother-in-law, the smile on the corner of his mouth deepened. The little emperor is gradually taking power, where can he still let the Ouyang clan dominate? But if the Nie clan is allowed to gain a firm foothold in the court, it is also impossible. He came out of the queue and said to Zhao Huan: "Your Majesty, this matter is in Yongzhou City, and the minister also has a certain responsibility, please allow the minister to investigate and deal with this matter with the chief secretary." ”

Zhao Huan glanced at Chun Yuchuan deeply, knowing his intentions, but he had no choice but to promise. After the matter was over, no one said anything more, he waved his hand and retreated.

After retreating, Ouyang Jie went to the Guangming Hall with a calm face, heard someone shouting to himself, and looked back to see Chun Yuchuan walking towards him with a smile on his face, only to see him smile and say, "Don't go home?" ”

"What do you do when you go home during office hours?" He said with a pull on his face.

"I did get a good errand, so I don't have to go back to the office, and follow Master Sikou to catch the rumor-mongers." He laughed.

Ouyang Jie glanced at him with a serious expression, "Didn't my brother find anything wrong?" ”

"What's wrong?"

Ouyang Jie opened his mouth, but he still swallowed the words back, and turned to be angry: "The Nie clan is eyeing you and me, and my brother doesn't see it?" ”

Chun Yuchuan raised his eyebrows, hooked the corners of his mouth and said with a smile: "Sima Zhao's heart is known to passers-by, not to mention that it is still instructed by His Majesty, how can he not see it?" ”

"And what are you going to do?"

He raised his eyes to look at the gloomy sky and said calmly: "Do you know who died the most in peacetime? ”

"What?" Ouyang Jie frowned and asked.

Chun Yuchuan looked at him in a blink of an eye, smiled kindly, and said in a gentle tone: "Capture." Seeing that Ouyang Jie was puzzled, he explained, "When arresting the most vicious criminals, they often put their safety out of the way, so they are the ones who die the most. ”

"What do you mean?" Ouyang Jie looked at him with a look of surprise and grabbed Chun Yuchuan's hand, "This matter is too big, brother must not act recklessly!" ”

Chun Yuchuan looked at him, with a smile on his face, and asked rhetorically, "What's the matter?" ”

Ouyang Jie looked at him, not knowing which of his words was true and which was false, and he also understood the current situation, how could he tell the truth to himself? said not necessarily, he deliberately said it and let himself pass it on to Zhao Huan. So did he listen or not? But whether you listen or not, I believe that he has a countermeasure, but when the time comes, he is not a human being inside and out. What's more, the other party is Nie Gan, Nie Gan who threatens the status of the Ouyang clan.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but laugh, "What the younger brother means is that the arrest is very dangerous, and the brother should be careful." ”

Chun Yuchuan smiled, and was about to say something, when he saw Zhao Huan's chamberlain hurriedly running over and saluting the two of them, saying that His Majesty had summoned Da Situ.

Ouyang Jie glanced at Chun Yuchuan and said, "Then I'll go over first, brother be careful." ”

Chun Yuchuan nodded, "Go ahead." ”

……

When Ouyang Jie arrived in the Zhaoming Palace, Zhao Huan was writing with his head down, and when he heard someone coming, he just glanced at him, bowed his head and continued to write.

He knelt down and saluted, "See Your Majesty." ”

"You have a problem with Lord Siko?" He said without looking up.

"Weichen is frightened, I don't know what His Majesty means." He said calmly.

Zhao Huan smiled, "What are you worried about, why are you hiding it?" Left and right are just afraid that the Nie clan will threaten your Ouyang clan's status. ”

"The minister didn't mean that."

"Okay," he sighed, stopped his pen and looked at him, with a serious expression, "The Xi Dynasty died in the party disaster, and I finally eradicated half of the foundation of the Chunyu clan, you are good, and I am embarrassed everywhere!" ”

"Your Majesty!" He said loudly and looked up at Zhao Huan, "The minister's heart for His Majesty can be seen by the sun and the moon!" ”

"I don't doubt your loyalty, but this matter involves the status of your Ouyang clan, so I can't help but worry a lot."

Ouyang Jie held his anger in his heart, daring to be angry but not daring to speak, if it weren't for the fact that Ouyang had no other important positions in the court, how could he be angry with Zhao Huan? When he was dominating the court, the people in front of him didn't know where to dig in the mud!

"The Nie clan is a rootless tree in the court, and your worries are unnecessary." Zhao Huan said coldly.

"Your Majesty, won't a tree without roots grow roots?" He looked at Zhao Huan and said calmly.

"You're questioning me?" Zhao Huan frowned and looked at him.

"The minister doesn't dare, he just feels that his loyalty is against his ears, you finally eradicate a Chun Yu clan, and the minister doesn't want to see another Nie clan."

Zhao Huan looked at him and didn't speak for a long time. Whatever loyalty and patriotism will be put in second place in the face of interests. He was patient and said to Ouyang Jie: "He Kuan's case is related to the reputation of Da Situ, you can go home to recuperate for the time being, so as not to be tongue-in-cheek." ”

Hearing this, Ouyang Jie couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and looked at Zhao Huan in disbelief, "Your Majesty really wants to do this?" ”

"I'm also thinking about your reputation." He said earnestly, "The rumors in the city are directed at you and me, and if you are not disposed of, it will be difficult to convince the people." What's more, the mouth of the defense of the people is more important than the defense of Sichuan, you should understand. ”

Ouyang Jie sneered in his heart, so he had to kowtow and thank him. Zhao Huan waved his hand and asked him to step back. After Ouyang Jie left, Ping An stepped forward and said in a low voice: "The people have been arranged, please rest assured." ”

Zhao Huan leaned back in the chair, closed his eyes and said, "Tell He Kuan that you must protect the safety of the great priest and make no mistakes." ”

"I understand."

……

Let's say that Chun Yu Nian, since she was pregnant, Zhao Huan did not tell her about the previous dynasty, she was locked in the deep palace all day long, very bored, and sent Ouyang Yu to bring her some gadgets outside the palace, but it was only fresh for a while, and it was still boring after that.

She looked at Ouyang Yu, who was seriously diagnosing her pulse, and teased him with a smile, "Grandma really didn't arrange family affairs for you?" ”

Ouyang Yu glanced at her, and said with a smile: "No, if the mother has a favorite girl, please pay attention to the mother." ”

This thing seems to be embarrassing to her, imagine what kind of girl will be as he wants? She didn't say that. "Hey, this is very difficult, what kind of fairy can be worthy of Imperial Doctor Ouyang!"

Ouyang Yu lowered his head and smiled, did not answer her words, took the pulse pillow and said that the pulse was peaceful, but the medicine for the fetus should still be taken as usual. As he spoke, he packed up his things and was about to leave.

Chun Yu Nian got up to see him off, but he didn't expect him to refuse, and when he walked outside the palace gate, he leaned over and said to her: "It's windy outside the palace, please stop it." ”

She smiled, "There are many eyes and ears in the palace, and it is inconvenient to speak, I have something I want to ask you." ”

Ouyang Yu glanced at her meaningfully, "Take a walk more, it's good for the fetus." ”

Chun Yunian nodded, and walked out of the door of the dormitory with him, Banxia followed three steps away, paying attention to whether anyone was following him.

"The aunts and uncles have already returned with their children." Ouyang Yu said in harmony.

Chun Yunian frowned slightly, "Coming back?" ”

Ouyang Yu snorted, "Now that a few pairs of eyes are staring at them, it's not easy to leave again." ”

"Besides He Kuan, there are still people staring?"

"Your Majesty, you understand what you do, He Kuan is just one of them."

"You mean Nie Gan?"

Ouyang Yu didn't speak, but Chun Yunian also understood that now that Nie Yan had become the Great Priest, it was time to make a big move. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sneer, "If the Nie clan wants to be autocratic, they have to pass the Ouyang clan first, so don't worry." ”

"The Ouyang clan has no real power now, and they have no time to take care of themselves." Ouyang Yu said with emotion.

"What do you mean?" She couldn't help but turn her eyes to look at him.

"There are nursery rhymes in the city that slander Your Majesty and your brother, in order to avoid suspicion, Your Majesty has let your brother cultivate at home, and arranged for Nie Ruize, the son of Nie Gan, to enter the Situ Yamen to be a scholar, and now the Nie family is in power."

Situ Yamen set up four Shangshu to assist Da Situ, and now that Nie Ruize has entered, Zhao Huan's intention to promote Nie Yan could not be more obvious.

"Confused!" She couldn't help but say angrily, "Isn't this raising tigers for trouble? ”

"Niangniang, don't be angry, it's unknown whether you raise a tiger or not, and it's not that the minister provokes the relationship between you and Your Majesty, but Your Majesty's heart for you and me, you should understand."

Hearing this, she was shocked, and the contradictions that she had ignored in the past were suddenly broken by Ouyang Yu, making her no longer avoidable. The imperial power and the Chun Yu clan can only save one!
