Chapter 374: Robbed

Why?

Because after Qi Hang stepped down, no one was in charge of the entire military department, and Cheng Anhou had not returned, and then someone proposed to let Cheng Anhou's brother-in-law Xie Lin take care of it.

And Xie Lin's ability is mediocre, and he was just a small chief before that, after the prince's people were quickly pulled down one after another, the emperor has reached an unprecedented cautious level in the appointment of this military secretary.

The ministry recommended several people to the emperor, including Xie Lin's name, and after the emperor asked people to investigate carefully, he learned that this Xie Lin was not a member of the prince's party, so he ordered him to temporarily act as the military department.

As soon as Cheng Anhou came back, he was implicated and hit thirty boards, and he was stunned.

He came back from a long journey, the matter was done, and the military problem in the southwest was basically solved.

When he figured out what was going on, he was so angry that his face turned blue.

Xie Lin is the second son of Mrs. Cheng'anhou's stepmother Lu's son, although he has been an official for several years, but his ability is really mediocre, and he is even more inconspicuous in the military department on weekdays, and his personality is also very weak, and he is timid, so he has achieved nothing for so many years, and he has never moved in his original position.

This time, he had just been away for more than a month, and he was given a bad name, and he brought such a thing up to sit in such an important position.

Cheng Anhou is called a gas.

Since the retirement of the old Duke of Jianguo, none of the following heirs can take on the big responsibility, so over the years, the Duke of Jianguo Mansion has gradually gone downhill, Lu always said that Mrs. Cheng'an Hou didn't want to think about her mother's family after marrying Gaomen, and never knew how to help her brother, and even for a while, she also moved to stuff people into the Cheng'an waiting room, thinking that there must always be a daughter of the Jianguo family to marry into the Cheng'an Houjia to be reliable, but she was repeatedly rejected by Cheng'an Hou.

For this reason, Lu Shi was very unhappy.

This time, when I heard that there was a vacancy in the post of secretary of the Ministry of War, Lu Shi immediately became active, and I don't know if it was her movement that had an effect, or if someone deliberately did it, in short, Xie Lin was actually selected, which made Lu Shi proud for a long time.

I didn't expect that something would happen so soon.

Xie Lin was not doing well, and was immediately taken away by the emperor and put in prison, Lu Shi was anxious when he heard it, and he didn't care about any face, so he came to the gate of Cheng'an Houfu in a carriage at night, shouting to see Cheng'an Hou.

Cheng An waited for the board, was lying on the soft cheek and was very depressed, and when he heard the report from the porter, he suddenly burst into flames: "Don't see, let her go!" ”

These individuals don't have the ability to help, forget it, and pull him back for a day, what is this called!

Mrs. Cheng Anhou was also very guilty in her heart, after all, it was her mother's family.

And the Lu family couldn't see Cheng Anhou's people, so he was so angry that he was angry, scolded Cheng Anhou for having no conscience, scolded Mrs. Cheng Anhou for being a white-eyed wolf, and forgot her mother's family after marrying Gaomen, in short, scolded outside the door for a while before leaving stupidly.

Cheng An waited for the board, Gu Chen told Qin Niang after getting off work at night, Qin Niang exclaimed when she heard it: "The officials have also been bought?" Otherwise, who was blind and actually mentioned Xie Lin to the position of Shangshu? ”

This matter is clear that someone dug a pit for Cheng Anhou with the hands of the officials, and everyone knows that no matter who sits in the position of the secretary of the military department, if he has no great talent, he will inevitably become cannon fodder.

One by one made a mistake before, and the buttocks were unloaded by the emperor before they were hot, and as soon as Cheng An left, someone brought his brother-in-law up.

That Xie Lin thought it was a great good thing!

But I never thought that if this position was so easy to do, why did Qin Niang's uncle refuse to sit on it when he twisted his leg and broke his leg?

"It seems that Song Huai didn't succeed in getting Cheng Anhou's support, so he wanted to get rid of him, Cheng Anhou is good in everything, but there are a bunch of unangry brothers-in-law and brothers-in-law, if it weren't for his outstanding personal ability over the years, he can resist in all aspects, I'm afraid this title would have been lost a long time ago." Gu Chen pulled her into his arms, hugged her and said, "I cut off Song Huai's grain and grass, and Song Huai jumped off the wall in a hurry, so he started the idea of border grain and grass." ”

Qin Niang asked: "Are you saying that they are thieves shouting to catch thieves and robbing the grain and grass sent to the border gates, but they want to put the responsibility on Xie Lin, so as to implicate Cheng Anhou?" ”

I have to say that this is indeed a good plan to kill several birds with one stone.

"It's really a good plan, I guess the group of people who robbed the grain must be some well-trained good hands, even if someone is captured alive, they will not confess to the mastermind behind the scenes." Gu Chen said lightly.

"So, what about the grain? They just kidnapped it? Didn't you send someone to keep an eye on it? Qin Niang grabbed his cuffs and played with them in her hands, her eyes looked at him for a moment and asked, "Isn't that cheaper for them?" So what do I do? ”

If you can't hand over the war horse, the emperor will send someone to urge you again. Qingfeng Literature

She can see that this emperor must have died of poverty in his previous life, and he has worked so hard to accumulate wealth in this life.

"What are you anxious about? I'll let people stare at it, and if they dare to rob the grain, they must be ready to be exposed. Gu Chen hooked her chin and kissed her on the lips, with a touch of color between his eyebrows, "This time, I want him to hand over all the remaining private soldiers." ”

It's just that at that time, whether the emperor can tolerate him or not is another matter.

No matter how tolerant the emperor is to Song Huai, he will not allow him to be ambitious.

"This Yan Shangshu is very eye-catching, he is undoubtedly Song Huai's biggest help in the six departments, I think most of the previous southwest mutiny is inseparable from him, if he is allowed to stay in the household department again, I am afraid it will still be a big hidden danger for the soldiers at the border pass." Qin Niang frowned and said, "Although I don't like Song Huai, I don't want to see Yan Jing become the crown princess as she wishes." ”

People all over the capital can see that Miss Yan, who has not yet become the crown princess, is so arrogant, and she has done despicable things, if she really becomes the crown princess, I am afraid that it will not turn the sky upside down.

"She can marry Song Huai, but it's hard to say whether she will become the crown princess." Gu Chen laughed mockingly, pinched her cheek and said, "Don't worry, Song Huai, the prince, won't be able to do it for long." ”

He has almost arranged everything in all aspects, plus Cheng Anhou has returned, he must have a deeper understanding of the situation in the southwest, and he must have gotten back some evidence after going for so long.

If he wasn't afraid of him, why would Song Huai use Xie Lin to calculate him?

As soon as he returned, the emperor charged him with lax discipline, and there was also a suspicion of self-theft, and before this suspicion was cleared, presumably what he said, the emperor might not believe it all.

In order to prevent him from speaking, Song Huai made the first move.

It's really a good calculation.

However, before Gu Chen went to Cheng'an Houfu to talk to Cheng'an Houfu in detail, the backyard of Cheng'an Houfu caught fire.

Early the next morning, Gu Chen was going to Cheng'an Houfu to find Cheng'an, and Qin Niang also wanted to take the opportunity to see Mu Zhixin, so the husband and wife went together, but before the carriage arrived at the gate of Cheng'an Houfu, they saw a crowd of people commotion from a distance.

"Why are there so many people around? What's wrong, Qiu Xue, you go and see. Qin Niang picked up the window and looked out, only to see a large number of black crows in front of her, and she couldn't see what was happening in front of her, so she had to send Qiuxue to take a look.

Qiu Xue has good skills and neat movements, and quickly plunged into the crowd after answering the call, and came back after a while.

"Miss, I heard that Mrs. Cheng'anhou's maiden family came, and she made a lot of noise at the door for a while, and finally the second lady of Jianguo's family hit her head on the pillar, and Cheng'an Houfu opened the door to carry people in for treatment, presumably this Cheng'an Houfu is also lively at this time, Miss, let's knock on the door at this time, is it inconvenient?" Qiu Xue reported while her eyes still glanced at the crowd from time to time.

The second lady of Jian Guogong's family is Xie Lin's wife.

You don't have to think about it to know that there must be no way for them to come to the Xie Lu family, so they came to Cheng'an Hou Mu's family in vain, but Cheng Anhou himself is now in a commotion, where can he take care of these brainless Yue family?

Now Jian Guogong is sick and weak, and the whole of Jian Guogong's mansion is full of this Lu family tossing, and now that something big has happened, he has come to force Cheng Anhou to wipe her ass again.

Presumably, if it weren't for Mrs. Cheng Anhou's face, Cheng Anhou really didn't want to deal with them.

"The blood stains on the pillar haven't dried yet, and it can be seen that people have just been carried in, so these people have gathered at the door for a long time, tsk, there is such a Yue family, this Cheng'an Hou is also unlucky enough." Qiu Xue snorted a few times and smacked her tongue.

"Are you coming today and handed over a post to the Mu family?" Qin Niang blinked, turned her head to look at the man next to her and asked.

"I don't need a post, I said it long before Cheng Anhou left Beijing, as soon as he comes back, I will come to look for him, but in this situation, it is inconvenient for us to go in." Gu Chen glanced at the crowd that had gradually dispersed, and his eyes deepened.

Restlessness at home is also a scourge.

"But isn't it important for you to discuss? Isn't it troublesome in case of delay? Qin Niang also knew that at this time, Cheng'an Houfu would definitely not want outsiders to visit, but the matter of robbing grain was very important, if it was too late, not only would it miss the military plane, but it would also give Song Huai a chance to breathe, and it would be even more difficult to catch him in the future.

Moreover, if he can't find out the private soldiers, then Xie Lin's guilt will be difficult to escape, and if he is convicted, he will also be implicated in Cheng'an Houfu.

"Gu Bai, go knock on the door." After a short thought, Gu Chen ordered.

Gu Bai, who was driving, answered, jumped out of the carriage, and knocked on the door.
