Chapter 835: Li Yifu is the scapegoat

Wang Ping'an laughed dryly twice and said, "Then, according to what my uncle said, my nephew will find a junior official in Menxia Province and let him carry this matter!" ”

He paused and asked, "Uncle, who did what you said about this case?" When he asked this, it couldn't be regarded as a temptation, but he wanted to hear what the eldest grandson Wuji meant, and see if the eldest grandson Wuji was really very clear about the things in the palace, and he estimated that the eldest grandson Wuji would answer that he was the queen of the king, or that he didn't know.

Unexpectedly, the eldest grandson Wuji was not ambiguous at all, and said: "Who else could it be, it's your Uncle Shi!" ”

Wang Ping'an was taken aback, wouldn't it, even he could see it? But in normal thinking, shouldn't you think of being the queen and the king? He said: "It's Manager Shi, how can it be him, doesn't he still want to spare the Xiao family, I heard Mi Xiaomiao say that he didn't interrogate in the Qinqin Building, but changed it to Ningxue Pavilion, that is, Manager Shi wants to let the Xiao family go!" ”

The eldest grandson Wuji snorted and said, "Nonsense, Shi Zhongchen's methods are unknown to others, how can the old man not know the reason!" At the beginning, after the Xuanwumen incident, we swept away Li Jiancheng's henchmen in the court, and he swept away in the palace, how many times has he used this trick repeatedly, the old man couldn't be clearer! ”

Wang Ping'an was sweating a little on his forehead, Shi Zhongchen was still a habitual offender, and his methods of committing the crime had long been known. He said, "But what good is it for him to do so?" What does this mean, will anyone instruct him?

The eldest grandson Wuji smiled and said: "Could it be that the things in the world will only be done if they are good for themselves?" This is not good for him, but it is good for the new prince! Don't you want to think about it, the Xiao family has a son, if she is still alive, she naturally wants to support her son and compete for favor with the new prince, wouldn't it be dangerous for the new prince? ”

Just like when Li Zhi and Li Ke competed for favor, Li Zhi, as the crown prince, was threatened by Li Ke, and the eldest grandson Wuji, the uncle, couldn't do anything for his nephew? One is for the sake of his own power, which can be extended to the Li Zhi Dynasty, and the other is also for the sake of the Tang Dynasty's Jiangshan Society, only when the emperor's position is stable, will the country not be turbulent.

And Shi Zhongchen killed Concubine Xiao Shu, that is, Li Sujie lost his confidence, and the little prince without his mother would have no capital to scream, and Li Zhong's position would naturally be stable, Shi Zhongchen was thinking about the overall situation.

With this kind of empathetic "cognition", the eldest grandson Wuji will naturally not be embarrassed by Shi Zhongchen, and he has no intention of letting Wang Ping'an investigate thoroughly.

Wang Ping'an sighed and said, "In this way, it seems that we really have to find a scapegoat." ”

"It's just a dead concubine, it's a trivial matter, it doesn't take much effort, this case is covered with a lid and pressed down, anyway, Old Man Shi doesn't have a few days to live, even if we sell him his personal favor, don't let him die, don't die well!"

Wang Ping'an naturally nodded in agreement, but thought in his heart: "If he knew that behind this case, he could actually pull in an empress, it is estimated that he would not have to press it!" ”

I waited in the palace for a long time, but a little eunuch came to pass a message, saying that the emperor was occasionally infected with a cold, and he would not go to court if he rested today.

Wang Ping'an was about to leave, but Mi Xiaomiao came, saying that Shi Zhongchen wanted to see him, so Wang Ping'an had to bite the bullet and go to see Shi Zhongchen. The officials who tried the case had to go to see the murderer, and they had to respectfully obey the guidance of solving the case, what is this called!

When he entered the Guanyun Palace, he saw Shi Zhongchen lying on the bed, closing his eyes and recuperating.

Wang Ping'an stepped forward and saluted: "Uncle Shi, you called your nephew here, but you have something to order?" ”

Shi Zhongchen hummed, opened his eyes, and said, "You're here, sit down?" ”

Wang Ping'an lifted his shirt and sat on the small stool next to the bed, waiting to listen to Shi Zhongchen's guidance.

Shi Zhongchen said: "Listen to Mi Xiaomiao, the case of the Xiao family is transferred to you to investigate, so there is no need for our family." Our family called you today, first, to make a handover, after all, this case was still in our management yesterday, and it will be replaced by you today; The second is to let you come to our house to see the injury, yesterday I accidentally injured my hand, although the bleeding stopped, but it still hurt badly. As he spoke, he stretched out his injured hands together.

Wang Ping'an grinned, okay, this person, if he gets a certain weight, then he is really not afraid of anything! The eldest grandson Wuji said outside that Concubine Xiao Shufei was killed by Shi Zhongchen, so he thought that Shi Zhongchen called him to "mislead" and prevent himself from guessing at him!

Actually? People don't care at all! As soon as Shi Zhongchen stretched out his two hands, it was equivalent to telling Wang Ping'an that Concubine Xiao Shufei was killed by your Uncle Shi and me, what's the matter, what can you do to me?

Wang Ping'an thought to himself: "I really can't do anything to you, even the eldest grandson Wuji can't do anything to you, I have to give you favors and save face for you, what can I do with you like this?" ”

Wang Ping'an's face showed embarrassment, and said, "Uncle Shi, this is ...... Little nephew, it's better not to know, not so good! ”

"What's so bad, anyway, you just find someone to top the black pot, what's the big deal, don't you know how to solve this case?" Shi Zhongchen said in surprise, as if to say, you won't even find a scapegoat, you won't be so stupid!

Wang Ping'an is so angry, what kind of person is this, is there such a thing? But he could only pretend to have an understanding expression, and said: "Yes, of course the little nephew understands, the scapegoat will be found in a while, Uncle Bao Shi is satisfied!" ”

After speaking, he opened the white cloth on Shi Zhongchen's hand, looked at the wound, and said: "Uncle Shi, your injury is a traumatic injury, not an incurable disease, and it will be done with this medicine, so you don't need to take special care of it, but in the recent past, before the injury is healed, it is better to use less rope!" ”

Shi Zhongchen hummed and nodded: "That is, you can't kill people every day, our family is old, not as good as before, and it's not very easy to kill people." It's old, it's not okay to be old! ”

Wang Ping'an's scalp was numb when he heard it, this old eunuch leader is too much! That's right, yesterday he committed the case himself, and he tried it himself, and today he committed the case, and it became my trial. People are not afraid of killing, but I, the chief judge, am still afraid of a fart!

Wang Ping'an said: "Uncle Shi, how is this case concluded, can you ask Uncle Shi for some advice?" ”

Shi Zhongchen's face sank, and he said: "You kid, you have become the prime minister, how can you do things like this!" If there is any difficulty in closing the case, find a small official to let him try it for you, and then someone will jump out and surrender, so that once the case is closed, and then an accident will be made, and the little official will be killed, and there is no evidence for the death, and it will be in vain. Do you still need to teach you this? ”

Wang Ping'an scolded in his heart, he ***, Lao Tzu tried the case, but he wanted you, the murderer, to teach how to close the case, teach it, and scold me for not being in tune, you are still reasonable!

Only those who can't do it will only scold in their stomachs, and if they change their careers, they will be scolded directly! Compared with Shi Zhongchen, the old eunuch leader, Wang Ping'an can only admit that he is the one who can't do it!

He said: "I see, okay, my nephew will close the case like this, just the one who wants to jump out and surrender......"

"Our family will arrange it, so you don't talk nonsense!" Shi Zhongchen said angrily, paused, and said: "In this matter, you can hint at Queen Wang, who is your cousin, understand?" ”

Wang Ping'an sighed, can this matter also be hinted at? He said, "Uncle Shi, isn't it better that fewer people know about this matter?" If there are more people who know, isn't it ......"

Shi Zhongchen showed a surprised expression on his face, and said very "puzzled": "Why is it that the fewer people know, the better?" Even if everyone knew, what would they do? Ah, are you afraid that the emperor will know? ”

Wang Ping'an laughed dryly, and when it came to this, he was really helpless. He said: "Of course the emperor won't know, even if others know, they can't do anything, it's the little nephew who thinks too much!" ”

Shi Zhongchen's face changed to a loving expression, and said: "You kid, you just think too much, this is not good, think too much, you are easy to get old, and your hair is gray fast!" Okay, then let's ask you, how do you hint to your cousin? ”

Wang Ping'an's embarrassment is really indescribable, he remembered what the eldest grandson Wuji said to him outside, so he had to say: "Let's just say that Uncle Shi took action to solve the Xiao family in order to sit firmly for the prince's position, and there is no need to be afraid of Li Sujie fighting for the seat in the future?" ”

Shi Zhongchen nodded and said, "Smart, a good boy, you are right to say so." However, you have to mention one thing by the way, that is, our family has a few days to live, and we need the queen to take care of it more in the future! ”

Wang Ping'an sighed, it turned out to be for Shi Aiguo, this is to pave the way for Shi Aiguo! He hurriedly agreed, saying that he would definitely "hint" like this.

Shi Zhongchen sighed again and said, "It's a pity, when I got rid of the Xiao family, I left a little tail, and there was a piece of evidence that was not destroyed in time...... Forget it, let's handle it, don't talk about it! ”

Wang Ping'an scolded again in his heart, is this not for me to say, this is for me to say it! What does it mean to keep a tail, it is clearly to pinch some handles, lest the queen not take care of your brother. He hurriedly said: "Then, the little nephew must not say this." ”

"It's okay, you can go." Shi Zhongchen waved his hand and said, "You have to handle the case well and be a good official who is honest and honest, understand?" ”

Wang Ping'an couldn't cry or laugh, so he could only agree and leave the hall.

When Shi Zhongchen saw him leaving, he sighed and said, "Mi Xiaomiao! ”

"My son is here!" Mi Xiaomiao hurriedly ran over, he heard what he said just now, he was really in a cold sweat, but he was very envious in his heart, if one day, he could mix with Shi Zhongchen like this, to be a man to this extent, he is a real person, not an incomplete person!

Shi Zhongchen stretched out his two injured hands and said, "Come, give my godfather some medicine and bandage the wound!" ”

Mi Xiaomiao agreed repeatedly, changed Shi Zhongchen's dressing with great difficulty, and carefully bandaged the wound. Suddenly, I heard Shi Zhongchen laughing, laughing so much that Mi Xiaomiao was inexplicable.

Shi Zhongchen thought to himself: "Wang Ping'an, Wang Ping'an, this big case of the palace, you are getting deeper and deeper, and you still think you can get out of it?" As long as you tell the queen about the matter, you are finished! I can't do it, I'm about to go to the people on Huangquan Road, but I'm not in a hurry, I'll be waiting for you by the Lechuan River, but at the bridge! ”

Wang Ping'an walked out of the Guanyun Palace, thinking: "Shi Zhongchen, this old bastard, he has finished looking for me, this time it should be Queen Wang to find me, I will walk slowly, just wait for the people she sent!" ”

But although he walked slowly, he walked all the way to Dongtai, and he didn't see the people sent by the queen, of course he didn't know that the queen was still playing and watching the changes. Seeing that she didn't send someone here, he naturally wouldn't really go to spread the word for Shi Zhongchen, and he wasn't full of food, so why was he in a hurry!

Shi Zhongchen played wishful thinking, and thought that Wang Ping'an could really rush to "hint", but the abacus played super loudly, but it didn't get as expected, Queen Wang played and watched the changes, but Wang Ping'an refused to take the initiative to pass the word, what hinted or not hinted, it was stranded.

Wang Ping'an entered the province of Menxia, and was thinking about who to find as a scapegoat, but he saw a person walking out quickly, lowering his head and not knowing what he was thinking, until he was in front of him, and this person did not raise his head.

The man sighed, a smile on his face, and said, "Prime Minister Wang, you have gone down to court!" ”

Wang Ping'an glanced at this person and felt familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was. He nodded, and walked towards the yamen.

This person hesitated for a moment, and when he saw Wang Ping'an walking by his side, he was a little anxious, so he said: "Humble Li Yifu, don't admit your mistake this time." ”

This is purely a matter of having nothing to say, but it is extremely ingenious, no matter who it is, as long as it hears this, it will stop and ask when to recognize him?

Sure enough, Wang Ping'an stopped and said strangely: "I recognized you wrongly, when did I recognize you when did I miss you?" Your name is Li Yifu, oh, your name is Li Yifu! The former sentence was a question, but the latter sentence became an affirmation, and there was a hint of joy in the tone.

At this time, Li Yifu was still early from being developed, and it was not the Li cat that the government and the opposition were afraid of. He always thought that Wang Ping'an was not a big deal, so he didn't deliberately stammer, and even when he was in Shangshu Province before, he was mistaken by Wang Ping'an, thinking that he was from Shangshu Province, and he didn't get close to Wang Ping'an.

But after Xu Jingzong's advice, Li Yifu felt that it would be beneficial to tie Wang Ping'an. Xu Jingzong told Li Yifu that the more people like Wang Ping'an who don't want to take care of anything, the more benefits he can get from scolding him.

Because Wang Ping'an doesn't do anything, then if there is something, he has to find someone below to do it, who to find? Naturally, I have to find someone who can usually be called by name, so it is a great benefit to let Wang Ping'an remember his name, as long as he is sent to do things, he will be promoted naturally!

Li Yifu has never been able to find a chance, and today it is so easy to meet Wang Ping'an, how can he miss it, he quickly has nothing to say, and attracts Wang Ping'an's attention.

Wang Ping'an looked at Li Yifu and smiled. It turns out that this person is Li Yifu, and he is still an official of my subordinate province, but unfortunately I didn't pay attention to it when I ordered the roster before, of course, I didn't pay much attention to the people in this yamen.

Hearing Wang Ping'an call his name twice, Li Yifu was overjoyed and hurriedly said: "The humble position is Li Yifu." Does Wang Xiang remember the last time he was in Shangshu Province? "Look, in this way, Wang Ping'an must have to ask again, in this way, the impression will be deep, and the knot is also a skill.
