Chapter 400: The Two Kings Fight
"I have here a report of the fourteenth calamity in Langya County within a year. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThe most serious of these is the investigation of the bursting of the Yishui East Dike. Due to the negligence of the inspection, the danger was not discovered in time, and when the flood came, the sand and gravel were not enough to be prepared, and the blockage was not effective. For all kinds of reasons, Yang Wei is too guarded, and it is difficult to escape the blame. ”
In the middle hall of the prime minister's house, Wang Shang pushed a copy of the newly opened recital to one seat.
The light shone on this person's face, it was Shi Dan, who had not been seen for a long time, and now he was the right general, holding real power, and he was the in-law of Wang Shang, who was cited as a support.
Stan read it carefully, put it down, stroked his beard, and closed his eyes silently. After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes and stared at Wang Shang above. What he saw was a calm face with no waves.
Stan thoughtfully: "I remember that Brother Ziwei once said that Wang Xiaoqing (Wang Feng) had repaired a letter and handed it to the office, and it said, 'Disasters and natural things are not done by manpower.'" It is advisable to think that it is a good official'...... Now if this letter can be sent to Wang Xiaoqing's desk, the gap between the brother and others may be eased. ”
Wang Shang snorted, raised his head and brushed his beard, shook his head and sneered again and again: "Jun Zhong is not an innocent person, can a dispute with others still be resolved?" ”
Stan took a breath: "Brother Ziwei, are you going to make a move?" ”
"It's an opportunity, a rare opportunity." Wang Shang's calm face finally had a trace of fluctuation, "Heaven will take it, and you will be blamed." ”
Stan thought for a while and said, "According to what Ziwei said before, that Zhang Yixiao also intends to join forces against Wei Jun (referring to Wang Feng's party). Zhang Yixiao is shrewd and decisive, and his concubine Weng Du Zixia is talented. Why don't you invite the two of you to come and discuss together? ”
Wang Shang pondered for a while and shook his head: "The stakes are very high, the more people who know about it, the more danger of leakage, once Wei Jun finds out, it will be difficult to take precautions." ”
"But Langya Taishou must have a letter to tell him there, how can Wei Jun not be guarded?"
"This is an official document that has been delivered urgently for 400 miles, no matter how fast Yang's letter is, it can be faster than a stagecoach?" Wang Shang looked resolute, "Therefore, this matter should be decided sooner rather than later." ”
"Brother Ziwei, once you make a move, there is no room for manoeuvre...... Think again. ”
"Does Jun Zhong think it's inappropriate?"
"Ziwei's spearhead, Your Majesty will not know it, but you are afraid that Your Majesty will ...... there"
Wang Shang said suddenly: "I have bypassed the Wang clan of Wei County and stabbed from his in-laws, if this doesn't work, then do you still need to fight with Wang Xiaoqing?" If you are afraid of wolves and tigers before, how can you succeed? ”
Stan arched his hand and said: "Brother has already made up his mind, Dan only has a tail wing." As long as His Majesty submits the impeachment to the court, Dan will support it. ”
"Thank you, Junzhong."
"Ziwei is in trouble at this time, and there is still a chance of winning." Seeing that Wang Shang was decided, Stan changed his original dissuasion to support, "It's about in-laws, and Wang Xiaoqing needs to avoid suspicion." If he doesn't come forward, no one in Jiuqing will dare to come forward. ”
Wang Shang stroked his hair and nodded, and calculated with his fingers on his fingers: "Zhang Yixiao should be supportive; Zhang Zhong (Imperial Doctor) has always wavered, but he has a gap with Yang Wei, and he may be biased towards us; There are also Xie Guang (will be a master craftsman, one of the nine kings, a supporter of Wang Shang), Wang Zhang (Jing Zhaoyin), all obey my orders; plus Xin Qingji and Jun Zhong, the two generals on the left and right. In this way, there is a six-point chance of winning. ”
Stan stroked his palm: "Yes." ”
Subsequently, Stan entered the palace on duty. Wang Shang drafted the impeachment chapter overnight.
……
At the same time, Wang Feng was not idle. After roaring, he gasped for air, his eyes fixed on a point in the void, something inexplicable rolling in his eyes, he couldn't tell what it was, but it was terrifying.
"Wang An."
"The head of the house." This is an old man about the same age as Wang Feng, with a loyal face. He was Wang Feng's companion when he was a child, a scholar when he was a teenager, an attendant when he was young, and now a family order of the Great General's Mansion. One of Wang Feng's most trusted people.
"Go and get the red box on the bookshelf on the right side of the study."
"Yes."
Generally, if you want to take something, you can get it by calling a servant at will, and what Wang An's family order will take in person must be an important thing.
After a while, Wang An carefully took a red lacquered rattan box with a seal, gently placed it on the table, and bowed down.
Wang Feng held the candle flame to bake the sealing mud softly, picked up a knife from the case to cut off the sealing mud, removed the seal, opened the lid of the box, and there was a silk book in the box.
Wang Feng took out the silk book, unfolded it, and looked at it slowly, his eyes narrowed, and a needle-like light flickered.
This silk book is what Shi Xian sent in exchange for retaining his official position. Wang Feng has been collecting it, waiting for the opportunity. This is a great weapon of killing, and once it is sacrificed, it will definitely see blood. Now, the time has come.
"Someone!"
"Yes."
"Take my post and summon the servant Xia Yanqiu to come."
……
The next day, Wang Shang began to attack.
However, Wang Shang was full of confidence and handed the piece into the ban, but he couldn't wait for the approval of the Son of Heaven. Wang Shang was anxious, and wanted to submit to the court several times at the court meeting, but was interrupted by Wang Feng. When he personally entered the forbidden place to ask questions, the Son of Heaven was also the king Gu and talked about him.
This is really a disadvantage.
Just when Wang Shang was frustrated and didn't know where to open the breakthrough for a while, Wang Feng's counterattack began.
At the end of August, at the imperial meeting, Xia Yanqiu, the servant of the imperial history, suddenly threw a bombshell and presented a letter to the Son of Heaven at the court. In this book, the most appalling thing is that there is such a passage: 'Shang and his father and maid communicated, and his female brother *** enslaved and killed his private husband, and suspected the merchant and the envoy'.
What does it mean, that is, accusing Wang Shang and his father's slave *** Wang Shang's sister and human *** slave to stab her adulterer to death...... These evil things are very likely to be instigated by Wang Shang.
W-What's going on? Why did Geng Ding, a Pinyang person, actually know such a secret?
Wang Shang suddenly changed color, and the court was in an uproar.
Faced with such an accusation, Wang Shang was a little confused, but he had to defend himself in court. Geng Ding, who claimed to be a native of Pinyang, was originally a "pedestrian" (retainer) in his mansion, and was expelled from the palace for violating family rules seven years ago. This time I wrote a book, I must hate the old master, and the rumors are slanderous.
Wang Shang finally said angrily: "Such a wicked slave, you should abandon the city!" How can their vicious slander be believed? ”
Xia Yanqiu asked Si Li to put this person in prison and interrogate him strictly to verify the truth of his words.
“…… If his words are true, the prime minister will not be able to escape the blame; If it is defamatory, the prime minister can also be cleared. ”
The master craftsman Xie Guang objected: "How can a minister be condemned for the slander of abandoning slaves? If there is a slander, then it will be investigated, and the people will not be panicked? It's just a mess. ”
The war of words in the court was lively, but the initiator Wang Feng was watching from the wall. sneered in his heart, this was exactly the private interest of Wang Shang that Shi Xian used to exchange his official position. Shi Xian Huan Hai has been up and down for decades, and he has long seen that the two kings will have a day of contention, so he used this thing to trade with Wang Feng.
Compared with Wang Shang's roundabout and cautious attack, Wang Fengke is much more fierce, using selfish plots, it can be said that he is unscrupulous and seals his throat with a sword.
At this time, Wang Shang no longer cared about impeaching Yang Wei, but hurriedly cleaned the basin of dirty water that was splashed on his body. However, from ancient times to the present, the issue of style can never be studied in detail, otherwise it is like cleaning the filth by the Yellow River, and the more you wash it, the dirtier it becomes......
