Zhang Ou touched a nose from Wei Qing's mansion, he was very depressed, he actually ran to the prison to abuse the prisoners, he didn't know why Wei Qing wanted to block this, and how should he explain to Liu Che?

For three days in a row, Zhang Ou did not make any strong progress in Xue Ze's affairs, and he was afraid of startling the snake, and he was in a hurry to make a difference, Zhang Ou was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

And there is one more thing for him to do today, that is, Han Anguo officially resigned and went north.

After all, Han Anguo is in charge of the national criminal law, ranking among the third publics, and is Zhang Ou's real old boss and teacher, so Zhang Ou really has to do it in person to see him off.

Han Anguo has no regrets about leaving Chang'an, the only thing he wants to do is to see Liu Che again.

But Liu Che had already been disappointed in Han Anguo and disappeared directly.

Helpless, Han Anguo had to be escorted by a large group of people from Yuyang to Wei Qing's mansion.

"Lord Han." Wei Qing was not in the mansion most of the time, and Ruoyao was once again in charge of entertaining Han Anguo: "No, it should be Lord Taishou." ”

Han Anguo smiled bitterly, waved his hand, and sent the guards beside him out: "This official originally wanted to come over to talk to Wei Qing about the Xiongnu today. After speaking, he said with some regret: "It seems that this official came at the wrong time." After speaking, his face was full of sorrow.

Ruoyao could see Han Anguo's helplessness, he was old, and he was a civil official, how would he deal with the Huns across the wall (the Great Wall) in the future? What a problem.

Although Ruoyao knew that Han Anguo would be defeated by the Huns sooner or later, she still didn't forget to say: "Lord Taishou doesn't have to worry, it's actually very simple, just see how Lord Taishou handles it." ”

Ruoyao didn't know how Han Anguo was defeated in history, but when Wei Qing left yesterday, he had already expected that Han Anguo would come to him, and he had already thought of a countermeasure.

"What? Did General Wei show it? "Han Anguo is like finding a life-saving straw, you must know that since the Hungarian-Han war, there have been two cases of the Xiongnu going south to destroy the county and kill the Taishou.

Ruoyao smiled faintly, picked up a tea bowl and handed it to Han Anguodao: "Yuyang is the bridgehead of the Hun and Han wars, and the general already expected that you would come to him because of the Xiongnu affairs yesterday." ”

"Oh, it's not a loss to be a commander, you can think far!" Han Anguo was excited.

Ruoyao sorted out Wei Qing's words last night and then said: "It's actually very simple, borrow strength." ”

"Borrow?" Han Anguo frowned, not knowing what was going on.

"You have advocated peace between the imperial court and the Xiongnu since the time of the first emperor, which is also one of the reasons for Your Majesty's dissatisfaction, so you don't know how cruel the Huns are, and you don't have the ability to resist their pace of going south, you must use the forces next door to you to protect the peace of Yuyang." Ruoyao reminded.

Han Anguo immediately remembered this person: "Are you talking about Li Guang?" ”

"Yes, Yuyang and Youbeiping are neighbors, understand?" Ruoyao reminded again.

Han Anguo suddenly had an epiphany, Li Guang was a stinky and hard stone in the eyes of the Huns, and he must have this ability after dealing with the Huns for decades, otherwise Liu Che would let him go north to contain the 100,000 army of Zuoxian King Hu Hante? Why don't you talk about Yuyang and Youbeiping forming a community?

"Now that Han Taishou understands, then the next thing is what you two Taishou adults discussed, the last general has brought the general's words, and Taishou has a safe journey!" Ruoyao said.

The stone that Han Anguo pressed in his heart fell again, got up and saluted back, and then went north to .......

Ruoyao sent Han Anguo away, and went straight to Tingwei's mansion, because Wei Qing also confessed one thing last night.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Tingwei Mansion has always been busy, and it is also mysterious.

Ruoyao came to Tingwei's yamen and saw that Tingwei Zhang Ou was interrogating and digging deep into the black materials of Prime Minister Xue Ze.

Zhang Ou seemed to be wary of Ruoyao, and when he saw her stepping into the yamen with her front foot, he immediately ordered his subordinates to put away all the bamboo slips, accompanied by an unaware face.

Wei Qing saved Xue Ze purely because he couldn't stand such a struggle, so he let Ruoyao come.

"Is there anything wrong with the girl?" Zhang Ou greeted him with a smile.

Ruoyao saw people's hearts from the back of Zhang Ou's smiling face, and she didn't know if she would buy it this time when she reminded Zhang Ou: "Lord Tingwei, this girl came today to remind Lord Tingwei." ”

"What do you mean?" Zhang Ou glared at Ruoyao suspiciously, and saw that he didn't continue to speak, so he changed his face and said, "Oh, hehe, come on, come on, please sit down and say." ”

Ruoyao followed Zhang Ou into the yamen.

"Lord Tingwei, a few days ago, you said that the prime minister privately withheld the military funds of the Northern Army, and General Wei specially asked this girl to come and explain." After Ruoyao finished speaking, she took out a bamboo slip from her arms.

Zhang Ou was overjoyed, he did find a lot of Xue Ze's black materials in the past few days, but they were all sesame-sized things, and he couldn't take Xue Ze in one fell swoop.

Taking Ruoyao's bamboo slips, Zhang Ou quickly opened the preview, but the expression on his face became more and more depressed.

Ruoyao observed from the side: "This is the handwritten explanation of our general, and I also ask Lord Tingwei to present it to His Majesty's Imperial Inspection." After speaking, he picked up the teacup and drank tea confidently.

Wei Qing directly denied what Tingwei Zhang Ou said in the bamboo slips, there was nothing like that.

Zhang Ou is also a smart person, knowing that Wei Qing is currently very beautiful, this piece just doesn't need to be given to Liu Che, just based on Wei Qing's mouth, Liu Che will also be convinced.

"This official is a court lieutenant, not a handing over the chapter, you should take it back and let Wei Qing present it to His Majesty." Zhang Ou was expressionless and handed the bamboo slip to Ruoyao.

Ruoyao took the bamboo slip and said with a faint smile: "The prime minister is the head of a hundred officials, he has been deeply rooted for so many years, and there is the queen mother behind him, in fact, you don't need to kill him." ”

Facing Ruoyao's opening of the skylight and speaking brightly, Zhang Ou simply faced the problem: "It's not that the official wants to kill him, the official is just a small court lieutenant, and he is also acting on orders." ”

Sure enough, it was Liu Che's intention, although Ruoyao didn't know what Liu Che's original intention was by doing this, but according to Wei Qing's meaning, he still wanted to work hard and be a virgin.

Ruoyao: "It's very simple, if the reform is not effective, take office and dismiss the official, this is the correct way to deal with it." ”

"This is what Wei Qing meant?" Zhang Ou had a heart.

Ruoyao smiled and said, "Don't ask, I know what you mean, I don't know if you will come to Your Majesty and say that Wei Qing interfered in the affairs of the Tingwei Mansion." After speaking, he continued without a smile: "This is what this girl is figuring out. ”

This move is indeed Wei Qing's meaning, but Ruoyao also has a heart, and she must not leave Wei Qing to interfere in the government, so she admitted this matter.

"Okay, since Lord Tingwei is inquiring about the case, and Wei Qing is the party, this means that it is better to stay." After speaking, Ruoyao put the bamboo slip on the table again: "Otherwise, my general will be charged with not cooperating." ”

After Ruoyao left, the turmoil in Tingwei's Mansion did not end.

When the queen mother learned that Tingwei was secretly investigating Xue Ze, she immediately slapped the table with Liu Che and glared at her, sandwiching Zhang Ou in the middle to get angry, and the queen mother even asked Zhang Ou to kneel outside the pavilion of the harem for an hour.

Zhang Ou felt that things were tricky.

Liu Che wanted to replace the prime minister, but he didn't want to fall out with the queen mother and hundreds of officials, and Zhang Ou really felt Han Anguo's embarrassment at the beginning, and the best of both worlds seemed to be the only way Ruoyao said today.

The next day,

Zhang Ou entered the palace to ask for the will, and went to the prime minister's mansion with the will.

In this way, Xue Ze, the last of the three princes of the Han Dynasty, was dismissed and investigated for the crime of failing to carry out the holy grace and ineffective reform, and all treatment was cancelled and disappeared into the torrent of strong men.

In modern parlance, it means dismissal from public office, cancellation of retirement benefits, and transfer to the judicial authorities for investigation and punishment.

Xue Zeshan died, but seeing that he was a minister of the Third Duke, the disposal was still heavier.

Ruoyao didn't expect that the prime minister who had no ending in history was actually saved by Wei Qing.

From being rescued by Wei Qing, to participating in the Battle of Longcheng, and then returning to Chang'an, I thought that I would fall into the jealousy of the princes and nobles, but I didn't expect to see a living reform curtain.

In just about a year, Ruoyao has experienced too much.
