Chapter 138: I Live on the Fire

Rui Chang turned his head and glanced at Alhatu, who understood and said: "This case was handled by the commander of the infantry army, Yamen and Xuanjun. On Xuan Jun's side, it was Chen ...... who was in charge Staff officer, uh......"

Speaking of this, he also went too far, but he looked at Chen Yicheng.

Wen Xiang suddenly said, what "done together", this case, I am afraid that from beginning to end, it is the head and tail of the Xuan army, and the person who commands the yamen of the infantry army is just pulled to decorate the faΓ§ade.

No wonder, the case occurred in the land of the right-wing general soldier, but it was the left-wing general soldier who handled the case-Alhatu is Guan Zhuofan's brother.

Chen Yicheng said: "Lord Qiyuwen, since the case came out, Yicheng didn't dare to overdo it, so he sent a telegram to Lord Belle and reported the details of the case. Lord Belle called back, saying that he didn't dare to 'overwhelm the smell', well, he asked us to report to Rui Zhongtang immediately, and then ......"

Speaking of which, he stopped talking and looked at Rui Chang.

Rui Chang coughed again and said: "Guan Beiler's meaning is to 'call up' today, and the military aircraft department will report the case to the 'above'. ”

I see.

The Minister of Military Aircraft in Beijing, under King Gong, is Wenxiang. Ruichang is three, so naturally it is not good to go directly to pull King Gong up from the hot quilt, so he came to find Wenxiang.

Wen Xiang found that in this unveiled political tide, whether he wanted to or not, he had been pushed to the forefront. Since this case should be reported to the "superiors" by the Military Aircraft Department, it is only natural that he was the first of the five military aircraft ministers in Beijing to come into contact with this case, and that he was the second highest ranking after King Gong among the five. is the role of a "convener" who handles the case.

The "heaven heard" of this case. Do it yourself; A follow-up to the case. He is also very likely to participate in the hosting, among which the reef and dangerous shoals, high waves, wind and rain, devastating and annihilating, Wen Xiang thought about it a little, and he couldn't help sweating on his back, and his body was cold. The hand shook slightly.

But he couldn't learn from Cao Mengde and laughed: "Do you want to make my house on fire?" ”

Wen Xiang suddenly understood that Rui Chang's face was so ugly, as if he had died of Lao Tzu Niang, not only because of such a horrific case, but also because this case was under his rule, and he wanted to pretend to be deaf and dumb, and he couldn't get out of the matter.

Wen Xiang knew that after Rui Chang was promoted to a co-organizer of the university, he repeatedly asked for resignation from the envoy of the Admiral of the Nine Sects - since his position was close to the extreme. According to seniority, you can go to the next level and become a scholar of the palace. The real "extremely good minister"; He doesn't have any desire to consolidate power and profit, and form gangs, so why should he stay in such a position where affairs are trivial, responsibilities are heavy, and people can't sleep well?

Rui is often cautious on errands, and the reputation of his messengers on the Admiral of the Nine Gates is generally acceptable up and down. At the beginning, the queen mother of the two palaces warmly comforted her; Later, he couldn't stand Rui Chang's resoluteness and agreed to his request in principle. It's just that I can't find a suitable replacement for a while, and there are many things at the end of the year, and I take over in a hurry, and it's easy to make trouble, so the messenger of the Admiral of Jiumen is still by Rui Chang for the time being, preparing for the New Year, determining the successor, and then handing over.

Unexpectedly, at the end of the day, there was such a case! I was cautious, dodging left and right, or I was not careful, and I was deeply involved in the whirlpool of the political tide!

This kind of thing, once you are in it, no one can guarantee that you can get out of it. Even in the game, the momentum does not allow you not to open your mouth and not move, as long as you open your mouth and move, you may say or do wrong, and you may stand on the opposite side of the final winner - who the knows which one will win in the end?!

Really, who is recruiting to provoke whom, calling me "I can't live when I'm old?" ”

Thinking about it like this, Rui Zhongtang is burning inside, how can his face be good-looking?

As for Alkhatu's high spirits, it is very different from Ruichang because the two have completely different interests and losses in this case. First, Alhatu is just a general soldier and does not need to be "politically responsible" for this case as Rui Chang did; Second, he is a descendant of someone, and he plotted a big case against his benefactor, and he broke it in his own hands, which is a good opportunity to invite merit and buy good.

However, Wen Xiang is not the kind of person who does not dare to take responsibility in Ruichang, and after the initial shock has passed, he began to analyze the current situation as calmly as possible:

The criminal was arrested by Xuan Jun's people, and it is very likely that Xuan Jun has been eyeing the criminal early, and the grass snake gray line is under control, so that when the criminal commits the crime, he can "catch the thief and take the stolen goods"; It is difficult to say what Guan Zhuofan wants to do with this case, but he asked the Military Aircraft Department to "turn it around" early this morning -- this is also the most normal and standard procedure -- to show that he does not have any intention of "turning big things into small things and small things into small things."

He made this gesture and said: He is the first person to expose the case.

What does this mean?

First, it shows that he has no ghosts in his heart, and he can't say anything to the world; Second, it shows that he does not intend to let go of the mastermind behind the exposΓ© case.

It cannot be ruled out that Guan Zhuofan has another secret fold and sent it directly to the Forbidden City. Now that there is a telegram and thousands of miles of news, it will come in an instant, and perhaps, at this moment, the "electric music" from Tianjin has been sent to the internal performance office.

Also, over there in Tianjin, the Queen Mother may have known about this case - it is impossible for Guan Zhuofan to hide this matter from her.

Therefore, any attempt to delay or obstruct the exposure and investigation of this case, for whatever purpose, is extremely unwise and will only backfire.

In this case, I don't have a clue, what cards are in the hands of others, except for this grand road, there is no second way to go. Otherwise, if the foothold is a little unstable, let alone protect anyone, you will be planted at any time. Moreover, it was less than two hours before dawn, and there was no time to do any tossing and turning.

After thinking about it, Wen Xiang opened his mouth and said: "Since Lord Belle has this instruction, without further ado, let's go to Dafengxiang Hutong, please see the sixth master, and face this matter." In addition, he called someone to inform Bao Peiyu, Cao Zhuoru, and Xu Xingshu that they would all meet at the sixth master's place, and then enter the palace together - what does Zhi Weng think about this treatment? ”

"Naturally, they all listen to Bogong's orders. Well, Yan Qiao and Chen ...... Two staff officers ......"

When he was in Ruichang Mansion, Chen Yicheng also asked Rui Zhongtang to call him "Yicheng". However, these two words, Rui Chang really can't say it.

Wen Xiang glanced at Alhatu and Chen Yicheng, and said, "Yes, Lao Ah and Yicheng will also enter the palace together for the 'above' consultation." ”

Alhatu and Chen Yicheng responded at the same time. Alhatu had an excited and nervous look on his face; Chen Yicheng's face did not change, and he still looked calm and calm.

Wen Xiang secretly said in his heart: This person is not ordinary!

remembered something and said: "You can't wear plain clothes when you enter the palace, Yicheng, did you bring court clothes?" ”

Chen Yicheng said: "Master Xie Wen will mention it, and I will send someone back to get some clothes and bags." ”

In this way, I just didn't bring it.

Wen Xiang nodded and said, "Just send it directly to Prince Gong's Mansion in Dafengxiang Hutong - let's go from there." ”

Chen Yicheng responded.

Wen Xiang said: "Everyone, please sit down, I'll go and change into court clothes." Then he stood up.

Alhatu and Chen Yicheng stood up, only Rui Chang sat still. Wen Xiang Xiang and Chen pressed their hands on each other, raised their legs and left.

As soon as he took a step, he turned around and asked, "Do you have any clue about the origin of the thieves?" ”

Rui Chang and Alhatu didn't speak, and looked at Chen Yicheng together.

Chen Yicheng said: "This-do you know, adults, there is a place called 'Juxian Pavilion'? ”

Wen Xiang's eyes flashed, and he said, "I've vaguely heard of it." ”

Chen Yicheng said slowly: "This group of thieves, nine times out of ten, comes from this 'Juxian Pavilion'. ”

Wen Xiang's heart was shocked, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.

After a pause, he let out a long sigh in his heart: The fifth master is ridiculous!

A terrible thought came out of nowhere: The sixth master and this matter will not have anything to do with it, right?

Cold sweat broke out from his back again.

He tried to suppress his agitation and said, "Are the thieves now locked up in the Yamen, the commander of the infantry army?" There can't be a single slip-up! ”
