Chapter 210: Passing the buck to each other, Zi Yao issued an edict

"Don't get involved?"

When Liu Ping, the eighth prince, heard Liu Xin's words, he shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid this won't work, right?" If this matter is not resolved quickly, then it will inevitably lead many ministers to ask the court, how will you respond to them, Your Majesty?

Those ministers are also very embarrassed about this matter, and it is not easy to get involved rashly, and they all want to leave the problem to your majesty to solve. After all, Wang Mang investigated and handled tax issues as the secretary of the household department, which was a political matter. Now there are some contradictions, which should be resolved through your majesty's mediation. ”

"This..."

Liu Xin stood up and walked back and forth with his hands behind his back for a long time, and it was difficult to reach a conclusion.

He was really embarrassed about this, he couldn't take sides, and he didn't even have a chance to make peace with the mud.

After thinking about it for a long time, he also knew that if he didn't take action, then when the ministers went to the court to question, he would have no room for recovery.

"Eighth uncle, you can go to the Fenglai Hall of the harem, meet the queen, and ask her to come forward to mediate this matter." Liu Xin frowned.

"Ask her to come forward? Can this be done? Since ancient times, the harem has not been allowed to interfere in politics. If she comes forward, I'm afraid it's not appropriate. And, how did she come forward to solve it? The Eighth Prince asked.

Liu Xin replied: "Zi Yao is still the queen of the world after all, if she sends down a decree and adds my name to the decree by the way, then there will be no problem in this matter." And she seems to have some friendship with Wang Mang, if she makes a decree, she will definitely favor Wang Mang, help Wang Mang find out the taxes, and confiscate the Zhao family.

If she came forward in this matter, the other ministers would not say anything, after all, who would want to deal with a woman? When Feng Yi and the Jia family asked about me, I could shirk it. In this way, we will be able to receive the taxes collected by Wang Mang. ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

The eighth prince admired from the bottom of his heart and admired Liu Xin's intelligence very much.

In just a few moments, he found a proper solution, not to mention the offense, and to get the silver tael justifiably.

Liu Xin smiled faintly, "Eighth Uncle, since Ji Yun is also there, then you can send someone to pay attention to it, and if you have a chance to get his golden sword, then bring the golden sword." If you are not completely sure, do not do it, so as not to anger Feng Yi. If what I expected was true, Feng Yi's bottom line was the Nine Swords. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, this matter is arranged by the minister, and it is safe to do so, and he will never take any risks."

"It's so good, these nine swords seem to have a very big origin and a wide range of involvement. Although I want to get it very much, I can't show the slightest clue, otherwise the consequences will be unpredictable. Eighth uncle, now you can go to the harem quickly, so as not to delay the hour. ”

The eighth prince, Liu Ping, nodded, saluted, withdrew from the imperial study, and went straight to the Fenglai Hall where Wei Ziyao lived in the harem.

Within a while, he successfully came to Fenglai Hall and met Wei Ziyao.

Wei Ziyao asked why, and Liu Ping explained his intentions.

After she heard this, she said with a puzzled face: "Eighth Prince, it's not impossible for me to make a decree. But in this way, others will not trouble me for the sake of a woman, but my father will trouble me, and the head of my Wei family will also trouble me. ”

The eighth prince replied: "Qi Yu Niangniang, it is really difficult for Your Majesty to come forward to deal with this matter, and please take care of it." ”

"This...."

Wei Ziyao thought about it again and again, thinking of the scene when she met Wang Mang that day, her face turned slightly red, and she nodded: "Okay, what if you are blamed?" After speaking, she picked up a pen and paper and wrote the edict herself.

In less than a moment, a decree was written and stamped with the queen's phoenix seal.

Then she handed over the decree to a palace maid and instructed: "You should quickly hand over this decree to Qiutong of the Wuhou General's Mansion, and let her pass the decree without delay." ”

"Yes, sis!" The palace maid took the decree, received the order, left the palace, and went straight to the mansion of General Wuhou.

After the matter was settled, Wei Ziyao said to Liu Ping: "Eighth Prince, you can tell Your Majesty for me, just say that he owes me a favor." ”

The eighth prince arched his hand and said: "Thank you for your understanding, and the minister will return to Your Majesty." ”

"Well, you go by yourself."

"Yes, sis!" The eighth prince didn't dare to stay in the harem for a long time, so he got up and left.

But it was said that after the palace maid took the Yi Zhi, within an hour, the Yi Zhi was successfully handed over to Qiu Tong.

Qiu Tong knew the queen's thoughts, and did not delay, rode on the horse, and rushed to Weicheng.

In the direction of Wei City, the Zhao family's little servant and the Jia family's dead soldiers have already killed the red eye.

They ignored it, were not afraid of threats, and fought with thousands of people and hundreds of officials, and it was difficult for both sides to kill each other.

Wang Mang didn't expect that a simple case of raiding profiteers would eventually evolve into such a large-scale fight, and he was extremely speechless.

At the same time, he also deeply saw the problems of the aristocratic family from this matter. It is expected that if it were not for the support of the aristocratic family, where would this kind of thing happen.

As soon as he thought that just raiding a wealthy businessman would have such problems, he thought that if he raided more other wealthy businessmen in the future, wouldn't it hurt his muscles and bones and wash the world in blood?

Wang Mang's face was gloomy, and his heart was very heavy.

At this moment, most of the little guys in the Zhao family have no big problems, and they just did their own things honestly in the past.

However, they are now blindly obeying Jia Fengxin's orders and confronting the imperial court.

If this matter is strictly investigated, at least it will be copied and beheaded.

For all this, Wang Mang believes in the final analysis that it was all caused by those aristocratic families.

If it weren't for the hegemony of these aristocratic families, who didn't respect the law and did whatever they wanted, where would these little guys dare to do this?

He saw that there was no room for relaxation in this matter, and he could only keep sighing.

Jingsheng heard a sigh on the side and persuaded: "Lord Wang, if you want to revitalize the dynasty and reform the world, where can you not shed blood?" I think that as long as we go smoothly this time and suppress the prestige of the Jia family, then it will be much easier for us to investigate other things in the future. If you retreat because of a momentary soft-heartedness, this will only make the other party more rampant, which will cause a big disaster. ”

Wang Mang nodded and said, "I also know this, after all, a long pain is better than a short pain." The tragedy of the dozens of young women who were defiled by Zhao Ping is just around the corner. If I don't eradicate these underworld forces and profiteers who are unkind to the rich, the people will never be at peace, and they can only go on in a vicious circle.

When I was in Liaoning, I had to go to the Heroes' Tomb every month to pay respects to those soldiers who died in battle. It's just these people in front of me that I regret now. They could have gone to the frontier to kill the enemy, but now they are killing us here, and I admit that it hurts. Two thousand, seven or eight hundred centaurs, how many aliens can be killed? How much credit can be made? Hey..."
