Chapter 667: Kong Ming Arrives
Li Chengqian and Chu Yao sat opposite each other again, their eyes full of shock. Li Chengqian said in disbelief: "From now on, I have more respect for my mother-in-law." If you keep going like this, will your mother-in-law become a Buddha on the spot? ”
"Don't talk nonsense, although my mother is pious, my brother treats monks as vampires and becomes a Buddha! In my brother's opinion, this is an insulting word. But I really didn't expect my mother to be loved by so many people. ”
Chu Yao said with emotion, who would have thought that a mere lady would be so loved?
"Yes, look at how much Cai Cong has done for the country and the people, but when he was insulted and arranged, I didn't see anyone stand up."
Li Chengqian said uncomfortably, Sister Cai has done a good thing, and it is worthy of praise for more than ten years. But what Cai Cong did was to make more people benefit, but unfortunately there were no people who stood up, and there were a lot of people who fell into the well.
"My brother has always done things right, and he has offended too many people." Chu Yao said uncomfortably, her brother is a hero for her life, but heroes are always lonely.
"Don't talk about my brother, what's wrong with my husband lately? How can I always hear you sighing these days. ”
"It's not because of the weapons case, we have thoroughly investigated all the links during this time, and we still haven't found the problem, what face do I have to see your brother if it goes on like this!"
Li Chengqian said with a sad face, whether it is the number of weapons in and out of the warehouse, the quantity produced, and the inventory of iron. Officials and transport lines could not find a problem. ”
Li Chengqian said bitterly, these days they have forgotten to sleep and eat, and they have spent an unknown amount of energy, but the people behind them are too deep.
"Husband, could it be that the secret technique of forging has leaked out, and someone has opened a workshop in private?" Chu Yao thought about it and said, since the problem can't be found, it may not be the root cause here.
"Impossible, the imperial court attaches great importance to secret arts, not only dismantling refining weapons, but also forbidding any craftsmen to come into contact with outsiders, and even those who go to transport weapons cannot see them. If you're the only one who can leak out, do you think it's him? ”
Li Chengqian said dejectedly, he was sure that the root cause of the problem was in the Ministry of Industry, but he couldn't find any problems at all, so he couldn't arrest and torture everyone in the Ministry of Industry, right?
"What can I do? If this continues, what will Your Majesty think of your husband? What if someone takes the opportunity to attack the husband? Chu Yao said with some concern, although Li Chengqian's position is stable, someone has already challenged him.
Not every prince can be led on the right path by Cai Cong, these eleven or twelve-year-old little princes have not even met Cai Cong a few times, they have been instilled with the theory of the supremacy of monarchy by the officials around them since they were children, and they are naturally looking for opportunities all the time.
"At most, it's just a joke, as long as Lone doesn't commit a big rebellious evil act, no one can shake Lone's position." Li Chengqian straightened his waist and said domineeringly, and wilted again after speaking, in the end, it was really embarrassing.
"The people who resell weapons must be people from the Ministry of Industry, but their methods are too hidden and have not been discovered by you." Chu Yao shook his head and said, Li Chengqian sighed helplessly, his imperial skills were already outstanding, but the reasoning ability to solve cases was a shortcoming for him.
"That...... Forget it. ”
Li Chengqian suddenly wanted to speak and stopped, as if he was embarrassed.
"What's wrong with my husband? Since you and I are married, it is a combination of blessing and misfortune, and you can talk to me about any difficulties! ”
Chu Yao said with a smile, although she didn't marry Li Chengqian out of her heart, she has been working hard to learn to be a good wife.
"I heard that Kong Ming came to Chang'an, so I thought if I could ask her to help?" Li Chengqian was very embarrassed to say that it is indeed a very humiliating thing to ask a woman for help in this patriarchal society.
"Haha...... Husband actually wants to ask my military advisor for help, do you think Kong Ming is very powerful? I remember that Brother Prince, you have been blackmailed by Xiao Kongming for a lot of things! Chu Yao leaned back with a smile, Kong Ming was the military advisor of their Chang'an noblewoman, and any actions in the past were planned by Kong Ming.
"Although I don't want to admit it, but Kong Ming's brain is too good, no wonder Cai Cong had so many young talents at that time, and he had to take her as an apprentice."
Li Chengqian said with palpitations, he can't remember the number of times he has been blackmailed by Kong Ming over the years, whether it is a conspiracy or a conspiracy, he will fall into it.
"Then I'll send someone to invite Kong Ming and let her go to the palace, and then my husband will tell her himself." Chu Yao covered her mouth and said, Li Chengqian scratched his head with a smirk, anyway, it was nothing to be embarrassed in front of his mother-in-law.
It didn't take long for the gorgeous Kong Ming to walk into the East Palace, and when they saw Chu Yao, the two sisters hugged each other excitedly, treating Li Chengqian on the side as transparent.
After a long time, the two separated, and Kong Ming rolled his eyes and asked like a little witch, "Now should I call you my little uncle?" Or is it the prince's uncle? ”
"It's called uncle, of course it's called uncle." Li Chengqian said without hesitation.
"Hello uncle!" Kong Ming shouted sweetly, and immediately stretched out his hand again, and said with a formulaic look: "The first time I called my uncle, should I give my little niece a little money to change her mouth from time to time?" ”
"You're cheating me again!" Li Chengqian reflexively screamed, and then helplessly ripped off the peiyu on his waist and handed it to Kong Ming.
"Stand down, all of you!" Li Chengqian instructed lightly, how could outsiders hear about saving a woman? If you spread it, you will be criticized by the readers.
"The dignified prince actually needs to ask for help from my little woman, can't my little sister-in-law solve the case?"
Kong Ming's wisdom is extraordinary, and seeing Li Chengqian's small actions and his recent situation, he immediately guessed Li Chengqian's intentions.
"Hehe, nothing can fool you. I came to you this time to help me analyze what went wrong with your wisdom.
Li Chengqian said very shamefully, anyway, everyone was invited, and then pretending to be coquettish.
"That's it!" Kong Ming pondered, nodded in Li Chengqian's expectant eyes, and said, "I want to check all the files of the Ministry of Industry, and I have to ask the people of the Ministry of Industry at any time, can this be realized?" ”
Li Chengqian's brows immediately furrowed, and it was good to check the file and say that it was okay to transfer the file to the palace, but it would be difficult to interrogate the officials of the Ministry of Industry.
No matter how low the official position, it is impossible to let them be interrogated by a woman, and it may cause the officials of the Ministry of Industry to resign en masse.
"It's embarrassing, isn't it?"
"It's not just embarrassing, it's just difficult." Li Chengqian said with a wry smile, even if he was the crown prince, he would not dare to set this precedent.
"In that case, how about I recommend someone to you?" Kong Ming showed a mischievous smile, looking like he had been planning for a long time.
"Is it a murderer to recommend such a person in such a big circle?" Li Chengqian didn't expect that Kong Ming didn't want to make a move at all, but recommended someone who might be difficult for him to accept.
