As soon as the night fell, Liang Shicheng's fake son Liang Qiu was led to his father's study by Cai Jing's son Cai Wei, "Please wait a while, I'll go and report to my father!" ”

Cai Wei entered the study, and after a while, he came out and said, "My father invites the Ya Nei to enter!" ”

Liang Qiu walked into the study, knelt down and said goodbye, "Juniors see the Prime Minister!" ”

Cai Jing was reading a book under the lamp, he put down the book and said with a smile: "It turned out to be a virtuous nephew, please get up quickly!" ”

"Thank you, Shibo!"

Cai Jing really hated eunuchs calling him uncle, and he asked with a hypocritical smile: "Is your father in good health?" ”

"Thank you Shibo, my father is in good health, so I asked me to send a letter to Shibo."

As he spoke, Liang Qiu respectfully handed over a note, Cai Jing took the note, looked at it, and asked, "Does your father have any other messages?" ”

"When my father leaves, he will bring a message to the minister, and with Fan Zhixu charging in front, we don't have to bother, just a little help."

Cai Jing nodded, "I understand, you go back and tell your father, I will do what he wants, please rest assured!" ”

"The nephew is gone."

Cai Jing said to his son: "You go and send him!" ”

Liang Qiu was sent out by Cai Wei, Cai Jing lowered his head and was silent, just ten days ago, Fan Zhixu submitted the supervision report of the military prison to the official family, but there was no follow-up on this matter, Fan Zhixu wrote twice in a row to ask for a strict investigation of Liang Fangping, but there was no response.

Just today's early court, Fan Zhixu openly opposed the Northern Expedition, the reason was that Hebei's armaments were slack, and the Northern Expedition was not sure of victory, which caused an uproar in the Manchu Dynasty, including the privy envoy Zheng Juzhong and Zhao Ye, a scholar of Hanlin, and many ministers, including the privy envoy Zheng Juzhong and Zhao Ye, a scholar of Hanlin, supported Fan Zhixu and opposed the Northern Expedition, so that the court meeting broke up unhappily.

Of course, Cai Jing wanted to kill Liang Fangping, who betrayed him, but when he heard that Liang Fangping gave Li Yan a beautiful house in the capital, he knew that Li Yan would definitely try his best to protect Liang Fangping, and he was a little hesitant.

Obviously, judging from Liang Shicheng's meaning, Liang Shicheng, like himself, did not want to confront Wang Hao and Li Yan head-on, since Fan Zhixu was in front to oppose the Northern Expedition, they were indeed not in a hurry to rush forward.

At this moment, his son Cai Wei entered the study and whispered, "Father, it's a little trivial. ”

As soon as Cai Jing looked up and saw his son with a strange expression and a scroll in his hand, he asked, "What's going on, what's in your hand?" ”

"Father, the child sent Liang Qiu away, and met Qin Hui, the head of the military prison at the gate of the mansion, and he said that he would hand over this scroll to his father."

Cai Jing was stunned for a moment, took the scroll and opened it, it was full of dense small characters, it was the supervision report of the military prison, Liang Shicheng had also copied a part of it from the palace, but it was incomplete, but it was the whole book, Cai Jing was immediately interested, and immediately took a closer look.

At this time, Cai Wei said in a low voice: "If the father doesn't want to see Qin Hui, the child will send him away!" ”

Cai Jing stopped the scroll and thought about it, then said, "You bring him to see me!" ”

This Qin Hui is Zhang Bangchang's person, Zhang Bangchang secretly took refuge with Wang Huang, Cai Jing immediately transferred Qin Hui out of Taixue, Taixue is Cai Jing's traditional territory, he can't allow Wang Huang to get involved in Taixue, but thinking that Qin Hui is the head of the military prison, Cai Jing wants to meet him.

After a while, Qin Hui trembled and followed Cai Hui into the study, and he immediately knelt down and said, "Student Qin Hui greets his teacher!" ”

Cai Jing smiled and asked: "If I'm not mistaken, you are the champion of Zhenghe for five years!" ”

"Exactly! That year, it was the public minister's main exam, so he was a student teacher. ”

In the fifth year of Zhenghe, Cai Jing had a false name as the main examiner, but he did not participate in the imperial examination, and Yu Shen was the actual examiner that year, but Qin Hui called him his teacher, and he did not resist in his heart, so he nodded with a smile, pointed to the scroll and asked, "Is this your own copy?" ”

"Fan Xiangguo said that this is a top-secret report, and only students can contact it."

"This little block is very well written, neat but not unskilled, and it looks pleasing to the eye."

"Thank you for the compliment!"

Cai Jing asked again, "What else can you tell me about this report?" ”

"Back to the teacher, this report is actually basically written by Li Yanqing, the other two ways of supervision basically have no gains, most of the content is the results of the supervision of the Zhending Mansion, I have read the supervision manuscript, this supervision report should be completely true, very shocking, and Li Yanqing actually encountered a mountain bandit attack on the way."

"And this kind of thing?"

"According to Li Yanqing's report to Fan Xianggong, these mountain bandits were secretly instructed by Liang Fangping, and the armor they seized was the military assets in the warehouse of Zhending Mansion."

Cai Jing didn't dare to be interested in this, and asked again: "And then?" ”

Qin Hui thought for a while and said: "Master Qi, Fan Xianggong and Li Yanqing's investigation of military funds is just an excuse, their real purpose is to oppose the Northern Expedition, this is what Fan Xianggong personally told me." ”

"Any other news?"

"And.... Even the privy envoy Zheng Juzhong also strongly opposed the Northern Expedition, and often came to the military prison to discuss with Fan Zhixu, and sometimes Li Yanqing would also participate. ”

"I know this, what about the other news?"

"Something else for the time being.... Without. Qin Hui said uneasily.

Cai Jing nodded and smiled: "You are willing to report to me at a critical moment, which shows your loyalty to me, you continue to work actively in the military prison, Fan Zhixu must report to me in time if there is any trouble, I will not treat you badly in the future." ”

Qin Hui's nose was sour, and he knelt down and choked up: "The teacher is more important to the student than the mountain, and the student is willing to repay the teacher's kindness!" ”

Cai Jing only felt a numbness in his back, and goosebumps were two layers, he waved his hand and said, "Go!" Something, you and my dog contact. ”

He pointed to Cai Wei next to him, Qin Hui hurriedly agreed, he kowtowed respectfully three times, got up and retreated, Cai Jing suddenly felt that he had become a mud bodhisattva, and he couldn't help but snort in his heart, betraying Zhang Bangchang and betraying Fan Zhixu, how much is it worth believing in such a person?

Cai Wei sent Qin Hui out of the mansion and soon rushed back, at this time his brother-in-law Han Mulu was also in his father's study, Han Mulu was born in the market, but he was proficient in writing and ink, and he was an extremely capable person, and he has always been valued by Cai Jing.

Cai Jing took out Qin Hui's report to the two of them, "You take it and copy some data cases, and then make it public in the capital, and give me vigorous publicity, it's best to make it known all over the city, do you understand?" ”

"We get it, let's do it!"

This is what Liang Shicheng meant, let Fan Zhixu and Zheng Juzhong charge in front, and they will help a little wind in the back.

...........

Since the Shangyuan Festival, Li Yanqing has been busy, and Fan Zhixu's attitude against the Northern Expedition has gradually become clear, with the strong support of the privy envoy Zheng Juzhong and the Hanlin scholar Zhao Ye, and the three of them soon came together and began to contact the courtiers to oppose the Northern Expedition.

Their appeal was not only supported by a large number of magistrates, but also recognized by many upright officials in the DPRK and China, and Li Yanqing was also drawn into this small clique that opposed the Northern Expedition.

This morning, Li Yanqing was writing a report in the official room, when Mo Jun walked into the room and said, "It's really strange. ”

"What's weird?" Li Yanqing stopped his pen and glanced at him.

"There are discussions about our report everywhere in the capital, I heard an old man in the teahouse in the morning talking about the Xingtang County Ordnance Depot, and he actually said it is not bad at all, Yushi, how could our report leak out?"

Li Yanqing was also stunned, that report has always been a top-secret report, how could it be leaked, and it was known all over the city.

"Yushi, don't you think this is someone with a heart who deliberately leaked it out?"

Li Yanqing nodded, "I feel this too, but who will leak this?" ”

At this moment, Brother Qing ran to the door and said, "Li Yushi, Fan Xianggong invites you to come over." ”

Li Yanqing immediately said to Mo Jun: "I'll talk about this matter when I come back, I'll go first." ”

Li Yanqing got up and hurriedly went to Fan Zhixu's official room, and after a while, he walked into the room, but saw Fan Zhixu's gloomy face, a look of displeasure, Li Yanqing hurriedly stepped forward and bowed down, "See Xiangguo!" ”

"Li Yushi, now the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are talking about the supervision report, do you know about this?"

Li Yanqing hurriedly said: "I also heard about it just now, not only the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, but also the common people in the market are also talking about it, and it can be said that the entire capital is talking about this matter." ”

"Then I want to know, who leaked the contents of the report?" Fan Zhixu asked very dissatisfied.

"I just heard about it, first of all, I can guarantee that I will never leak out half a word."

Fan Zhixu looked at Li Yanqing for a moment, nodded and said: "I know that you are a person who understands the overall situation, if you want to leak it, you will definitely discuss it with me first, since you said that it has nothing to do with you, I also believe it, in addition, I also asked Qin Hui just now, he swore to me that he would never leak it, so think about it again, who else knows the content of this report?" ”

"Either Zheng Yuren and Wang Zao, they all know some of the content, and there are three principals involved in the actual investigation, and they also know a little, but I think it may have been transmitted from the palace, and the report has been put in the imperial study for more than ten days, so many people should have read it."

Fan Zhixu sighed, "Although this matter is to give us momentum, I am still a little worried that it will be self-defeating!" ”

Li Yanqing thought for a while and said: "I think that the pressure on the official family is not enough, as long as there is strong public opinion pressure, the official family has to investigate and punish Liang Fangping, once Liang Fangping is investigated and punished, then it is admitted that the preparation for war is insufficient, under the strong pressure of the government and the opposition, the Son of Heaven will inevitably give up the idea of the Northern Expedition." ”

Fan Zhixu pondered for a moment and said: "Bachelor Zhao also thinks the same as you, he suggested mobilizing the Tai students to march, and Zheng Gong and I are more in favor, but we are not very easy to come forward." ”

Li Yanqing laughed, "It just so happens that the whole city is in trouble, and it is normal for students to march on the streets, so this matter will be handed over to the lowly position to do, and the lowly position happens to know Chen Dong, the leader of the students!" ”

Fan Zhixu nodded, "But Taixue is Cai Jing's traditional territory, you have to be careful." ”
