Chapter 379: Silent mourning for Zuodu Yushi
Li Mingchong rushed to Li Mingde's mansion and saw him, but what Li Mingchong didn't expect was that Li Xiu'er, the princess of Chu, was also there. And Li Mingde's expression was extremely wrong.
"Xiu'er, you go down first!" Li Mingde took Li Xiu'er away.
After Li Xiu'er retreated, Li Mingchong asked, "Big brother, what's the matter?" ”
Li Mingde's face was gloomy, and he said: "The king of Chu wants to divorce Xiu'er for reasons such as childlessness and jealousy, the second brother should have heard about it." ”
"I've heard of it, but the King of Chu still has to use our Li clan, so it's unlikely that he will take this step." Li Ming said.
Who knows, Li Mingde sneered and said: "Now, it's not whether the King of Chu is willing or not, it's the concubine Du Xueqin who is the king of Chu!" She will do whatever it takes to squeeze out Xiu'er! Xiu'er told me one thing just now, a big thing! ”
"What?" Li Mingchong immediately straightened his posture, could it be that King Xian asked him to ask, this is this?
Li Mingde said in a low voice: "The child in the belly of Du Xueqin, the side concubine of the King of Chu, is not the blood of the King of Chu at all!" ”
"What?" Li Mingchong stood up in shock, with a look of disbelief: "What Xiu'er said this from?" How did she find out? ”
Li Mingde nodded and said: "She saw it with her own eyes, and swore a poisonous oath to the sky, and Xiu'er is my granddaughter, I know her character, she won't lie, and she still has evidence, evidence that can debunk this matter!" And big brother, think about it, the king of Chu has so many wives and concubines, why has he not had an heir for so many years? You can't have problems with all women! ”
Li Mingchong was silent, what he was even more surprised about now was not this matter, but how did King Xian know about this secret? When you think about it, it's terrifying.
Moreover, the heir in the belly of the concubine of the king of Chu is fake, and it will be a sharp knife in the future, which will stab into the heart of the king of Chu. In addition, if the king of Chu has a problem with his body and has no heirs in the future, then what does the Li family support him for? A prince who has no heirs, even if he is a descendant, His Majesty will not let him inherit the throne! This will affect the inheritance of national fortunes!
"Don't talk about this matter to anyone, you ask Xiu'er sideways, who else knows about this besides her!" Li Mingchong instructed.
"Second brother, don't worry, I'll ask clearly!" Li Mingde nodded immediately.
Li Mingchong was undecided, so he simply went back to the house, who knew that as soon as he arrived at the house, the housekeeper said respectfully: "Master, Master Cui Changwen Cui, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, Lord Song Ci Song, the left attendant of the Criminal Department, Lord Hao Yunhao, the left deputy of the Imperial Palace, and the left attendant of the Military Department, Guo Ziyi, who just took office yesterday, all came to the mansion to visit, and the villain did not dare to slack off, so he invited them to the living room. ”
"What?" Li Mingchong was shocked, his previous guess came true, these officials who had just taken office turned out to be the henchmen of King Xian's arrangement! And there are so many things to be hidden, no one knows about it. Especially Song Ci, not long after he did it, he tried the Duke of Sui with the King of Chu, and the King of Chu was still happy, completely unaware that he was being used.
"In this way, with King Xian's methods, it is a small problem for him to continue to install henchmen in other yamen."
"Plus the Champion Hou, the Zhenyuan Marquis, the Zhongyong Marquis, and by the way, there is also Zhuge Yuanba, he is already the commander of the forbidden army, responsible for the six guards of the forbidden army in the capital, and is not inferior to the patrol battalion of the Zhongyong Marquis, etc!"
"Wait..."
"With your majesty's calculations, how can you not know this? But he still appointed Zhuge Yuanba as the commander of the forbidden army..."
"I see! I see! ”
At this time, Li Mingxuan clearly understood the reason why Xiao Rui told him all this, but he was not afraid of leaking secrets!
Because Your Majesty!
Your Majesty, it turns out that the position of the crown prince in your mind has long belonged to you!
......
After Hao Yun, Cui Changwen, Song Ci, and Guo Ziyi left Li Mingyang's mansion, they went back to their homes and did not go to see Xiao Rui.
Although Xiao Rui was not present, he also knew that the scene was harmonious and they had a good conversation.
This time he told Li Mingchong about his strength, which was a serious show off, and blatantly told him whether to marry his granddaughter or not?
In Jia Xu's words, the first assistant of the cabinet is the most extravagant position of all civil officials, Li Mingchong can firmly sit in this position, not only need to be able to handle official affairs, but also have scheming, and this position is easy to attract hatred, hostility, and many enemies, Li Mingchong's two sons are mediocre and incompetent, if he dies in the future, who can save his children and grandchildren?
Although Li Mingde is the patriarch of the Li family, he also has to look at Li Mingchong's eyes, and Li Xiu'er marrying Xiao Yiheng, the king of Chu, is the umbrella he asked for for his descendants!
Once something goes wrong with this umbrella, Li Mingchong is bound to look for a new one, this is reality forcing him, he has to do it!
So Jia Xu firmly believes that Li Mingchong will agree to the marriage!
But then, Xiao Rui did not go to visit the Li Mansion, but left some time for Li Mingchong to think about it.
In addition, Xiao Rui is almost resting, according to His Majesty's order, he will go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to serve as the adjutant of the Imperial History of Zuodu, and assist Du Juvenile in handling official business.
So Xiao Rui went to the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
Du Shao has not slept well these days, and since His Majesty said that King Xian would be his adjutant, he has been full of sorrow. Who is the King of Xian? The little madman who robbed the house, the nemesis of corrupt officials, he came to be an adjutant for himself, did he push himself into the fire pit?
I am only forty and three, I have just accepted a concubine, and I am raising my eyebrows, I don't want to die!
"Knock knock..."
Just then, there was a knock at the door.
"This official has something important to deal with, and I don't see a guest!" Du Shao shouted.
Who knew that Xiao Rui's laughter sounded outside the door: "Lord Du is busy with official business, so the king won't bother!" ”
Du Shao stood up with a bang, he was really afraid of something, he hurriedly went out and opened the door, and said respectfully: "It turned out to be a copy... His Royal Highness King Xian is in person, and the lower officials are disrespectful, disrespectful, and disrespectful! ”
What a character Du Shao is, he almost missed his mouth at this time, you can imagine how sad he is. Fortunately, he was thick-skinned and his face was not embarrassed.
Xiao Rui arched his hand and said: "Lord Du is the head of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and this official will do things beside the adults in the future, if you are not thoughtful and comprehensive, please forgive me and Haihan." ”
Du Shao said with a smile: "Your Highness is polite, Your Highness's ability is obvious to all, it is the luck of this official to be able to come to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to assist the official, I believe that the Metropolitan Procuratorate will work together to serve the court." ”
"Oh, look at the official is really negligent, Your Highness, please rest in the house!"
Xiao Rui nodded, and followed Du Shao into the house.
Du Juvenile sent someone to invite Hao Yun, and now the number one leader of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is Du Juvenile, followed by Hao Yun, the left deputy capital Yushi, and the positions of the right capital Yushi and the right deputy Yushi are temporarily vacant. Du Juvenile is in charge of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and Hao Yun is responsible for the specific work of managing the affairs, experience, affairs, Zhaoma, and prison departments, as well as the supervision of the imperial history of each state.
So Du Shao said with a smile: "Although His Royal Highness served as the former superintendent of the Imperial History of the Imperial Palace a few years ago, he did not work in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, so he was not familiar with the official affairs of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. What about Your Highness? ”
"Obey Lord Du's arrangement, this king has no objection!" Xiao Rui responded with a smile.
Du Shao nodded with satisfaction, he decided to use the procrastination trick, delay, maybe His Royal Highness King Xian will not be so concerned about the government affairs of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and then let Hao Yun find something tricky but boring, and then spend a while, maybe His Royal Highness the King of Xian will not want to ask about the affairs of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, isn't this beautiful?
The Metropolitan Procuratorate is a thorn in the flesh in the hearts of the yamen, and His Royal Highness must not be allowed to bring the Metropolitan Procuratorate into the fire pit!
"Lord Hao, you must carefully explain the functions and official affairs of the Metropolitan Procuratorate to His Highness, don't be afraid of trouble, the more detailed it is, the better Your Highness can give full play to his talents!" Young Du looked at Hao Yun again and gave him a look.
Hao Yun nodded vigorously, but in his heart he mourned for Young Du in silence, even if you blink your eyes into stars, I can't listen to you this time, I am a person from His Highness!
Xiao Rui looked at Du Shao's bitter words, so he couldn't help but laugh, according to his plan, the Metropolitan Procuratorate was his powerful pedal, and it was the second step to seek a great cause.
So I'm sorry Master Du, life is not only poetry and distance, but also reluctant, you have experienced a lot, and you will get used to it.
Thinking of this, Xiao Rui said: "Lord Du, if this king knows that a certain official who has already been appointed is corrupt, abuses his power, is crony, and even colludes with foreign enemies, what should this king do?" ”
"This..."Du Shao was stunned, and did not rush to answer, but asked, "Has it been Zhishi?" Are Your Highness sure you've already made a decision?"
"Of course! What the king found when he inspected the state capital was not punished before he could be punished, so he returned to Kyoto. Now that he is serving in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, he naturally wants to ask Lord Du what he means, and Lord Du said that if he doesn't investigate, then the king will put this matter on the shelf! Xiao Rui said sincerely.
Du Shao hurriedly said: "No, no, no, the meaning of this official is not to investigate, even if it is a minister, he must be held accountable for the crimes committed during his tenure, so as to demonstrate the justice of the law!" Therefore, the meaning of this official can be checked, so as to give the civil and military officials a greater vigilance, don't think that if you tell the old man and return to his hometown, he will be able to get away with it! However, His Royal Highness has just come to the Metropolitan Procuratorate and is not yet familiar with official affairs, so why not hand over this matter to Hao Yun to investigate? Also, who is this person? Which Adult? ”
Du Shao was afraid that he would be yin by Xiao Rui, so he asked Hao Yun to track him down, if the identity of the person who was checked was prominent, Hao Yun would be able to pay attention to proportion.
Xiao Rui said with a smile: "This person has already made a decision, it is not worth mentioning, this king also agrees to hand over this matter to Lord Hao to be fully responsible, Lord Du is busy with official business, so he doesn't have to worry about these trivial things." ”
Hao Yun also smiled and said: "Your Excellency, please rest assured, the lower officials will handle this matter well, and any situation will be reported to His Royal Highness and Your Excellency!" ”
Du Shao always felt that King Xian had a conspiracy, but both of them said so, and he couldn't ask for it anymore, and Hao Yun checked for him, so he just asked him afterwards, he wanted to see if the official of Zhishi that King Xian wanted to investigate was a character.
"Good! That's hard work, Lord Hao! Du Shao smiled.
Xiao Rui and Hao Yun glanced at each other vaguely.
Come, a moment of silence for Boy Du.
This is just the beginning.
