Chapter 509: Hindering each other
Although it was the people from Taichengwei's side who came to deliver the message, it stands to reason that there is no need to be afraid of Gonggong Long, but seeing that Gonggong Long and Lan Ziyi were in a stalemate in the house, the person who came couldn't help but stop his breath and hid at the door and didn't dare to say anything.
Before this person came in, Lan Ziyi was about to collapse with Gonggong Long, and it was hard to say whether this sudden disturbance would be a blessing or a curse for Lan Ziyi.
Gonggong Long kept staring at Lan Ziyi and then looking, Lan Ziyi also stared at Gonggong Long, and after the two held each other silently for a while, Lan Ziyi asked:
"Father-in-law, the Military Aircraft Department invited us over, should we leave?"
Hearing this, Gonggong Long shrugged his shoulders and moved his muscles, he didn't answer Lan Ziyi and stood up directly and walked out of the door, Lan Ziyi smiled when he saw this, and then got up and went out with Gonggong Long.
The eunuch who came to deliver the word at the door knew that the two masters were in a bad mood today, so he quickly shut up and quietly led the way in front, not daring to say more than half a word. So Father-in-law Long and Lan Ziyi, two people who were not in harmony with each other and did not agree with each other, walked together silently.
When he was about to walk to the door of the celebrant supervisor, Grandpa Long's mood seemed to have improved a little, and he softened his tone and asked Lan Ziyi:
"Wei Hou, I heard that Zhao Tingzhu, the secretary of Dali Temple, visited your mansion last night?"
Lan Ziyi followed behind Gonggong Long and replied:
"It is true."
Grandpa Long asked:
"Zhao Tingzhu, what's the matter with you?"
Lan Ziyi said:
"Nothing."
When Lan Ziyi spoke, the two were about to step out of the threshold, and when Gonggong Long heard this, he looked back at Lan Ziyi and asked:
"Zhao Tingzhu and Wei Hou's family are not old friends, why did he come to you in the middle of the night for no reason? How can this be said to be nothing? ”
Lan Ziyi arched his hand:
"Lord Zhao came to me just to chat, and if there is no focus, naturally there is nothing to do."
Gonggong Long was originally annoyed because Lan Ziyi refused to annoy King Lide, but now after hearing Lan Ziyi's words, he was even more annoyed, glared at Lan Ziyi and walked away. And Lan Ziyi silently followed behind Gonggong Long. Grandpa Long was so unhappy that Lan Ziyi didn't dare to take the sedan chair anymore, so he took the sedan chair man and the others to follow Grandpa Long a few steps behind him and walked silently.
This short journey was quite depressing under the feet of Lan Ziyi and Father-in-law Long, and no one in the team dared to speak during this period. It wasn't until Lan Ziyi and Father-in-law Long arrived at the military plane that the two of them broke away from their entourage and entered the house, and the other people who followed the two of them breathed a long sigh of relief. A few little eunuchs from the celebrant came together and muttered:
"Yesterday, I saw Father-in-law Long get angry and almost lifted off the roof of the celebrant supervisor's house, and today I saw him and Wei Hou having an awkward quarrel, I don't know what will happen when I go back tonight."
"Look like this, we don't have any good fruit to eat tonight."
"I said you two, stop thinking about what you have and don't have. If you can breathe a sigh of relief, you can breathe a sigh of relief first, and talk about the things of the evening in the evening. ”
Speaking of Lan Ziyi, he and Gonggong Long entered the military aircraft office one after another, and after saluting several Zhongtang and Yu Gonggong inside, the two of them took their respective seats.
Father-in-law Yu originally saw Lan Ziyi and Father-in-law Long coming together, and there were some doubts in his eyes, but after seeing Father-in-law Long's iron-blue face and Lan Ziyi's cautious appearance, Father-in-law Yu put his mind at ease and tasted tea with peace of mind.
After Lan Ziyi took a seat, he glanced at the situation of the cabinet, compared with yesterday, there was one less person and one more person in the room, and the total number of people remained unchanged. The person with less is naturally Zhang Yanwu, who lost control of his emotions yesterday, and the person with more is also an old acquaintance that Lan Ziyi knows. Yes, the person who came was Shen Zhong.
Zhang Yanwu saw that everyone had arrived, cleared the documents on the shore, and handed them to the military machine Zhang Jing on the side, and the military machine Zhang Jing sent the things to Gonggong Long after the result. Just listen to Zhang Mingyue said:
"Father-in-law Long, this is the concert prepared by the cabinet in the past few days, and I also ask my father-in-law to hand it over to the emperor to put on a red seal after seeing it."
Gonggong Long was still angry, and he didn't answer Zhang Mingyue's words, nor did he reach out to get the documents, but just gave a look to the personal eunuch who followed behind him, and asked the eunuch to take the things.
Zhang Mingyue was not angry but happy when he saw Gonggong Long's angry appearance, he glanced at Lan Ziyi again, and then lowered his head slightly and smiled to himself.
Gonggong Long cleared his throat after laughing, and then asked:
"Now that the two fathers-in-law have deigned to be here, let's discuss today's matter. I entrusted my colleagues in the Ministry of War last night to check Zhang Yan's martial arts, and I privately thought that he had neither suggestions nor traps in the army. ”
Hearing this, Father-in-law Yu sent down the tea bowl and said:
"This time Zhang Yanwu joined the army because he wanted to save his own face and shoehorned his grandson in, I used to think that this kind of thinking was granted to be a move of favoritism, if they all stuffed their close relatives into the key places like Taiwei, I think my Taizheng official rule is going to end."
When Lan Ziyi heard these words, he smiled bitterly in his heart. If you talk about this expedition, Zhang Yanwu has completely proved that he is a qualified general with troops, so many times Zhang Yanwu has been injured and charged with Lan Ziyi, how can he become a gentleman who entered the army through the back door? Sure enough, the elders with their mouths on others have a lot of money, and if they don't have the power in their hands, they can only be entertained.
Although Gonggong Long is still unhappy, but now that he has begun to talk about things, it is not good for him to continue to blacken his face, and after adjusting his emotions slightly, Gonggong Long said publicly:
"The army is the emperor's army, and the general is also the emperor's general, and you can't do whatever you want just because you are a martial artist and have made meritorious contributions in the past. Besides, why can Zhang Yanwu's credit be in vain? Since Zhang Shoufu has already checked it clearly, then act according to the rules, the celebrant has no opinion on this matter, and he has to discuss it carefully with the military department. “
Gonggong Long's words are obviously in his words, the open knife is Zhang Yanwu, and the dark arrow is Lan Ziyi. Lan Ziyi knew that he didn't want to expect Gonggong Long to speak for him in the Military Aircraft Department today.
I don't know if Zhang Mingyue heard the sound of Grandpa Long's words, anyway, after Grandpa Long finished speaking, Zhang Mingyue's expression didn't change, he just hung up his pen, and then said:
"In the past few days, there have been quite a few people in the court who have impeached Wei Hou, although I think the impeachment needs to be discussed, and the two fathers-in-law also jointly guaranteed that Ming Wei Hou is fine, but the court is chaotic and the public is angry, and I can't just suppress the matter. So today I brought Shen Shilang, who took the lead in impeaching Wei Hou from the DPRK and China, and we will make it clear in public what is going on, so it's best. ”
Lan Ziyi felt awkward when he heard this, Zhang Mingyue was still speaking for him yesterday, and today he asked Shen Zhong to punish him, what is this called? What the father and son of the Qiu family and Tao Zhutu said is indeed good, Zhang Mingyue's words are really unbelievable, Lan Ziyi has to think about the matter of Zhao Tingzhu's coming last night and the father and son of the Qiu family again.
However, the most important thing at the moment is Shen Zhong's matter, the first strike is the best, yesterday Lan Ziyi has already tasted the sweetness of seizing the opportunity, and today Lan Ziyi will do the same.
Seeing this, Lan Ziyi didn't wait for Shen Zhong to speak, then got up and pointed at Shen Zhong and scolded:
"Shen Zhong, you traitor, shameless villain, you still have the face to enter the palace and enter the cabinet? Fortunately, today I will make your crimes public, so that everyone knows what you look like as a villain! ”
Shen Zhong's face Lan Ziyi had already seen it that night, this villain can do anything to survive, and there is no such thing as a face for him. Seeing this, Shen Zhong also got up and scolded Lan Ziyidao:
"Lan Ziyi! You are taking money to recruit outlaws in Beijing, bribing scoundrels, and revealing your desire to rebel, but you are scolding me for being a thief, and your ability to catch thieves is also amazing! ”
Lan Ziyi said:
"Shen Zhong! You took the lead in killing the court officials that day, and sent your own slaves to send a letter of allegiance to the thief leader Lei Youde that night, your betrayal has been revealed, and you should have been killed to show the public, to thank the world, I don't know what face you have to confuse the public here? ”
Shen Zhong heard this:
"Wei Hou opened his mouth and closed his mouth and said that I sent someone to send money to the demon thief to pay allegiance, what is the evidence? You're responsible for spewing blood like this! ”
Lan Ziyi said:
"That night, I patrolled the riverbank, and together with the soldiers of the Western Tiger Battalion, I captured your servants and searched for your letter of loyalty. When I take back the letter, the servant of your family reproaches me for beheading the heavens, do you want me to take out your letter and show it to everyone? ”
Shen Zhong knew that he was holding the handle in Lan Ziyi's hands, originally he had no confidence, but he couldn't escape, he couldn't hide, he wanted to live only by biting Lan Ziyi to death, and then looking forward to a sudden turn in things, only in this way Shen Zhong had a glimmer of life. Now that Lan Ziyi has brought up the matter of the letter again, it is written in black and white, where can Shen Zhong find a reason to talk back?
However, villains have their own villain's luck, and God will always favor those who are willing to work hard, even if it is a villain, even if it is only for a short time.
After Lan Ziyi finished speaking, when everyone else was shocked by Shen Zhong's behavior, Long Gong asked openly:
"Wei Hou will take it out if he has evidence, what's the point of just talking about it?"
