Chapter 1138: Surrender
Qian Duoduo came down from the tree and sat on the ground, panting.
The monks were gone, the Taoist priests were gone, and just now they were fighting over who drove the ghost out of their bodies, and finally they had a big fight, and now they were carried to the hospital.
Only then did he have a chance to catch his breath.
Qian Caishen walked over, squatted down beside him, and said, "Do you feel better?" ”
"Much better." Qian Duoduo leaned against the tree, pretending to be very weak, creating the illusion that the "ghost" had disappeared from him.
He didn't have to pretend, he was already very weak, and he was almost exhausted when he climbed such a tall tree.
The God of Money looked at him and asked, "Do you know why I did that?" ”
Qian Duoduo nodded, and quickly shook his head.
The God of Money and Wealth patted his leg and said: "This person, sometimes, you can't be too smart, those who are too rigid are easy to break, and those who are gentle are undefeated, Dad doesn't ask you how smart you are, Dad just wants you to be safe and stable in this life, and when you die, don't ruin the Qian family's family business......"
Qian Caishen looked at him and asked, "Dad asked you to go to Liuzhou, it was to learn how to do business with Miss Lin, look at you, what messy things did you learn to come back?" ”
Qian Duoduo nodded and said, "Dad, I understand, I won't talk nonsense anymore!" ”
"You're enlightened, and you're happy to be able to help your dad come up with ideas." Qian Caishen nodded with satisfaction and said: "Dad just found out, under Cui Jiang, the head of the household department, there is a large amount of silver flowing unknown, if it is proposed in the morning tomorrow, it will be enough for him to lose his official hat, cut off the prince's arm, and get rid of this great enemy for the three princes, what do you think about this?" ”
Qian Duoduo shook his head and said, "Dad, I can't see anything." ”
Qian Caishen waved his hand and said, "It's okay, what do you say, there are no outsiders here." ”
Qian Duoduo thought about it, looked left and right, and then looked at the God of Wealth, and said seriously: "Dad, I don't think your method is good, how big an official is the head of the household department, if he goes down, who may not go up, what if it is still the people of the eldest prince who go up, then all the efforts we have made in front of us are not in vain?" ”
Qian Caishen nodded, and asked again, "So what do you think should be done?" ”
Qian Duoduo showed a mysterious smile on his face and said, "If we can reduce some of Cui Jiang's guilt, so that he can still sit in that position, but it can be used by us, it will naturally be the best result......"
The God of Money and Wealth pondered for a moment, then nodded, "This plan is very good. ”
He looked at Qian Duoduo again and said: "Duoduo, dad heard that the Tao of Qingyang Temple has the true inheritance of Laojun, and the host of Xingshan Temple is the reincarnation of Arhat, and Dad thinks that the evil things on your body have not been cleaned up, and I plan to invite them to you tomorrow to take a look......
Qian Duoduo's face turned pale instantly, looked at him, and said in a trembling voice: "Dad, you just now, didn't you say ...... just now"
The God of Money and Wealth sighed, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Duoduo, you have to remember that in this world, no one can trust ...... except yourself."
……
In the court of the Qi State, since His Majesty fell ill, the eldest prince was appointed to govern on his behalf, and the three princes were in charge of the country, the situation in the court began to become treacherous and unpredictable.
The two sides are trying their best all the time, wanting to reduce each other's power in the court and strengthen themselves.
Today, there is a royal history playing, there is a disorder of accounts in the household department, several problems of unknown funds, several imperial historians in the court, in front of hundreds of officials, jointly impeached the household department Shangshu Cui Jiang.
Fortunately, the impeachment is not that he embezzles or accepts bribes, at most a dereliction of duty, and the result of the disposal is only a fine of one year.
To the surprise and surprise of the officials, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had shown a businesslike attitude towards this matter from beginning to end, which was completely different from the previous situation of vigorously defending others.
Hubu Shangshu is in a high position, in charge of the country's money and grain, is one of the most important henchmen of the eldest prince, once he has a mistake, the prince is like a broken arm, today he ignores Cui Jiang, it is not common sense at all.
This reminded everyone of the rumors in Beijing in recent days.
It is rumored that some officials around the eldest prince, including Cui Jiang, the head of the household department, have been secretly bought by the three princes, and they not only have close contacts with the people of the three princes, but some people have even seen with their own eyes that the people of the three princes carried two large boxes into Cui's mansion, and when they came out, there were no boxes......
Of course, these are all rumors, the authenticity cannot be verified, and they may also be framed or sow discord------ the most important thing is what the eldest prince thinks in his heart.
Judging from the performance of the eldest prince of the court this morning, I am afraid that this matter is a little more credible.
Heng Wang's Mansion.
"Zhao Yi, Zhao Yi......" Zhao Zheng smashed everything that could be smashed in the hall, and the servants and maids around him all knelt on the ground, trembling.
An old man waited for him to finish venting before he stepped forward, raised his head and said, "Your Highness is in the court today, yes, it's too unwise......
"Unwise?" Zhao Zheng looked at him, gritted his teeth and said, "Tell me, what kind of unwise law is it?" ”
The old man said slowly: "Your Highness doesn't care about Lord Cui, won't it chill his heart?" ”
"He's chilling? This king is not cold yet! Zhao Zheng's face showed anger again, and said: "What Zhao Yi can give him, can't this king give it, why should he betray this king!" ”
"Your Highness, don't think so!" The old man hurriedly said: "If Your Highness is like this, isn't it just as the intention of the three princes, today in the court, impeaching Lord Cui, who is clearly the person of the three princes!" ”
"You know something!" Zhao Zheng waved his hand and said, "The thing Cui Jiang did was enough to make him sit in the position of the head of the household department, but what did Zhao Yi say, and what did those imperial histories say?" ”
"A one-year fine, just a one-year fine!"
Zhao Zheng gasped and said: "What is the penalty for one year, the gold and silver that Zhao Yi gave him are worth a hundred years of his money!" ”
His face turned cold, and he said: "Cui Jiang, this king treats you sincerely, you actually treat this king like this, but don't blame this king for being unkind......"
Cui Mansion.
Cui Jiang had mixed feelings in his heart, and he really didn't know what it was like.
He knew in his heart that today in the court, those imperial histories let him go, otherwise, the thing he did for the eldest prince was enough to make him lose his position as the head of the household.
This is thankful, but the eldest prince's inaction against him made his heart very bottomless.
Beside him, the woman sighed and said, "If before today, the eldest prince was only suspicious of the master, after today, I am afraid that he will be sure." ”
Cui Jiang looked back at his wife and said anxiously: "Then what should we do, they have forced me to have no way out!" ”
Cui Jiang was very desperate and wronged, he obviously didn't do anything, the third prince just bought a mansion and sent a few imperial historians to his house to make trouble, and he lost the trust of the eldest prince......
Fuck, he's even more wronged than Dou E!
"It's not like my lord has no way to go." The woman shook her head and said, "From the very beginning, someone has pointed out a clear path for the master......"
Qian Mansion, Yang Yanzhou just walked in, he looked at the God of Money with a smile on his face, and said, "Brother God of Wealth, Cui Jiang has surrendered to His Royal Highness......"
Before he finished speaking, he looked at a corner of the room with a slight surprise on his face.
At the table, Qian Duoduo looked at the bowl of black runic water in front of him, and shook his head violently: "I don't drink, I don't drink......"
……
Liuzhou.
Li Yi just coaxed Li Mu to sleep, gently put her on the bed, helped her cover the quilt, and walked out of the room.
Just now, he suddenly realized something.
The reason why the Qi State has the current stability is precisely because of the balance of power between the crown prince and the three princes.
That Dao Gu stood behind the eldest prince, staring at her, not knowing what the purpose was, but the balance at the moment, they should want to see.
What happens if this balance is upset?
I don't know......
