Chapter 804: The Wind Direction Has Changed, and Reflection Is Urgently Needed
Fang Xuanling was already looking forward to it in the study, and when he saw the eldest grandson Wuji entering the room, he immediately got up to greet him, and asked with concern: "I didn't see you in the court today, and I heard that you were sick, so I came to visit you." What do you think? Your body isn't tight, is it? ”
The eldest grandson Wuji looked pretty good at this time, shook his head and walked behind his desk, sat down on the chair, and sighed: "The body is fine, it's just a little heartsick, don't worry." ”
"Heart disease?"
Fang Xuanling hesitated for a moment and was relieved, stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of Jiangnan, and asked softly: "Could your heart disease be because of the bad news of the Zhang family in Yangzhou?" ”
"yes...... Hey, you know that, too? ”
The eldest grandson Wuji was quite surprised* glanced at Fang Xuanling, you must know that he also got up this morning to receive the news from Yangzhou, and Fang Xuanling actually knew about the affairs of the Zhang family in Yangzhou when he came back from the morning court last morning.
Could it be that the other party secretly has a more well-informed source than him?
However, judging from his friendship with Fang Xuanling for so many years, it is impossible for the other party to hide from him through any secret channels.
Extrapolating from this, Fang Xuanling's news can only come from one place, and that is this morning's court.
Immediately, he blurted out, "Could it be that this is what the court discussed this morning?" ”
Fang Xuanling bowed slightly when he heard this, he knew that his old friend's mind was extremely meticulous, and he rarely could hide anything from him.
Then he said: "If you didn't come to the early dynasty today, I guessed that you must have received the bad news from the Zhang family in Yangzhou, and you were angry by this incident." That's right, today's morning dynasty is talking about the fact that the Zhang family in Yangzhou was destroyed in an instant, and the chickens and dogs were not left. This matter was transmitted to the palace by an eight-hundred-mile urgent mail last night and sent to the emperor's desk. Lord Eldest Sun, do you know who is the person who passed on this letter? ”
The eldest grandson Wuji was slightly stunned, and said secretly, it turned out that there were people with faster hands and feet who stabbed this matter into the palace.
Listening to Fang Xuanling's mysterious appearance and asking himself, the eldest grandson Wuji was shocked, and the name of a certain person appeared in his mind, and he asked in surprise: "Could it be that the person who sent someone to travel 800 miles a day to send the urgent music into Chang'an is Guo Ye?" ”
Although Fang Xuanling did not answer, he still bowed his head, obviously the eldest grandson Wuji guessed correctly again.
Seeing Fang Xuanling's statement, the anger in the eldest grandson Wuji's heart really didn't hit anywhere, his shoulders trembled with anger, and his eyes suddenly roared like angry King Kong: "This ruthless traitorous villain is actually such a grandiose thief shouting to catch a thief, does he still want to deceive the court, deceive the emperor, and frame the culprit of the collapse of the Zhang family in Yangzhou to the gangsters?" ”
Fang Xuanling said: "Lord Eldest Sun, please calm your anger, it's really not a secret, when the court discussed today, Guo Ye sent someone to send it into the palace is like this." He not only told the emperor about the process of the collapse of the Zhang family in Yangzhou, but also explained to the emperor that the reason why the Zhang family was wiped out by bandits in the rivers and lakes was because the Zhang family involved the interests of all walks of life in Yangzhou, which caused disputes among the forces in the rivers and lakes, and finally attracted the revenge of the competitors. Not only that, but he also asked His Majesty for the guilt, threatening that although the Zhang family flew to the disaster this time was to blame, but this incident happened within his jurisdiction, and he also had an unshirkable responsibility as the assassin of Yangzhou. ”
"Shameless, the thief surnamed Guo is so clever that he actually wants to gently prevaricate and cover up this matter?"
The eldest grandson Wuji was so angry that his face was blue again, not only stomped his feet heavily, but also slapped the desk from time to time, and scolded: "He said it lightly, who knows that he went to Yangzhou this time, that is, he went to Yangzhou for the salt tax, and he came to Yangzhou Zhangjia." The destruction of Zhang's family was definitely planned by him behind the scenes. Bastard, he actually gave this sin of the nine clans to the slightest push, and planted it in the struggle for the interests of the forces in the rivers and lakes. According to what he said, the Zhang family is not only to blame, but also deserves to die? ”
"Not really, he didn't say that."
Fang Xuanling shook his head helplessly, and sighed lightly: "Otherwise, he would not have made a plea, and he also asked the imperial court to ask the military department to order all parts of the Huaiyang area to gather troops to gather troops to eliminate the bandits in the Huaiyang area together, and restore peace to the local people." At the same time, it also allowed nearly 1,000 people in the Zhang family to settle their grievances as soon as possible and bring the murderer to justice. ”
"Phew, that's nonsense!"
The eldest grandson Wuji was almost blown up by Guo Ye's shameless words, his body trembled like chaff, and his lips trembled and shouted: "Master Fang, Xuan Ling, can't you see that Guo Ye is the culprit of the Zhang family's annihilation." This is the real thief shouting to catch the thief. The gangsters in the rivers and lakes have no fixed residence, and they are cunning rabbits, so how easy is it to exterminate the bandits? As long as the bandits in the Huaiyang area cannot be eradicated one day, the case of the Zhang family's extermination will be delayed indefinitely, and finally it will be over. Traitor, this is the real traitor, the surname Guo is so unscrupulous, so secretive, he is the biggest courtier of our dynasty!! ”
After shouting, the eldest grandson Wuji couldn't help coughing because he was too excited, choking so much that he almost couldn't breathe.
Fang Xuanling looked at the excited appearance of his old friend, and couldn't help but sigh that Guo Ye, this kid, really made the eldest grandson Wuji angry.
He Fang Xuanling has been up and down for so many years, how could he not see Guo Ye's little trick? The eldest grandson Wuji can penetrate behind the scenes, how can he Fang Xuanling not see Mount Tai?
Moreover, Fang Xuanling, as one of the leaders of the old vassal line of Tiance Mansion, also felt more and more the recent threat from the Shilin Qingliu lineage, with the growth and expansion of Guo Ye, after a few years, he concluded that this son would definitely become a big problem for the old vassal line of Tiance Mansion, and even the henchmen of the Guan Long family.
In his eyes, the destruction of a Zhang family is acceptable, and it has not hurt their roots. But if Guo Ye is allowed to thrive like this, maybe in the near future, it will not be just one Zhang family that will fall, but three, five, or even hundreds of Zhang families.
So, he walked up to the eldest grandson Wuji, stroked the other party's back to help him go along with it, and then comforted: "Lord eldest grandson, the anger hurts the body, first extinguish the fire and calm down." Now is not the time to be angry and angry, do you know what the emperor's attitude is towards Guo Ye's news about the destruction of the Zhang family in Yangzhou this morning? ”
When the eldest grandson Wuji heard this, he secretly calmed down, deliberately controlled his breathing slowly, and the whole person gradually calmed down.
He quickly realized in his heart that it was useless for him to be angry here, after the emperor heard that the Zhang family was destroyed, his attitude towards this matter was the key, especially the emperor's attitude towards Guo Ye at this time was the most critical.
Then, he looked at Fang Xuanling eagerly, and urged: "Then how did the emperor deal with it this morning?" ”
How to deal with it is not only to ask how to view this matter, but also to ask how to deal with Guo Ye's responsibility in this matter.
Fang Xuanling's expression was a little inexplicable, and he sighed softly: "The emperor ordered the military department to immediately issue an official document, so that the governor's mansions in all parts of Huaiyang should mobilize troops and horses to carry out a major clean-up of the bandits in the state capitals. As for Guo Ye, the emperor denounced him for dining on his corpse in front of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, and his incompetence in governing the local area, which led to the rampant occurrence of banditry, so as to endanger the livelihood of the people under his rule. Moreover, he also ordered Guo Ye to withhold a year's salary to set an example. ”
"Good scolding, good punishment!"
The eldest grandson Wuji slapped the desk again in relief, and scolded: "It is absolutely impossible to increase the prestige of Guo Ye, I think the emperor is still easy to deal with like this." Master Fang, what's next? ”
"What's next?"
Fang Xuanling looked at the eldest grandson Wuji a little blankly, shook his head and said, "Where is there anything next?" No, the emperor's final disposition is probably like this. ”
Eldest Sun Wuji's eyes widened, and he exclaimed in disbelief: "What? Just disposed of it hastily, just so hastily perfunctory? How can it be? What did the emperor think? ”
Fang Xuanling saw the unwillingness on the face of the eldest grandson Wuji, so he had to smile bitterly again and again: "Lord eldest grandson, in Fang's opinion, the direction of the wind may have changed now." Maybe you and I are the old vassals of Tiance Mansion, as well as the entire Guanlong clan, have been accustomed to living a comfortable life over the years, and they have neglected something. Lord Eldest Sun, we urgently need to reflect and reflect! ”
The eldest grandson Wuji seemed to understand Fang Xuanling's voice, and said to himself: "Has the wind direction changed? Reflection Reflection? ”
Fang Xuanling suddenly interjected again: "By the way, when the dynasty was dispersed, the emperor left Yu Shinan and Kong Yingda alone, and said that he had something to discuss with them, so he should have gone to Wangbei Pavilion." In the past, if the emperor had any major matters that he needed to discuss privately with his courtiers, he would usually look for you and me, but now it is different, this is undoubtedly a bad signal, Lord Eldest Sun! ”
The eldest grandson Wuji's face suddenly changed, and a sense of ominity sprouted in his heart, and he immediately gave up his hand to Fang Xuanling to forgive his sins, and then said: "Xuanling, I will go to the palace to meet the queen first, I will not accompany you, please take care of yourself." ”
With that, he walked to the door of the study and grabbed the door.
Fang Xuanling guessed the purpose of the eldest grandson Wuji entering the palace to see the queen, hurriedly chased to the door, and shouted at the eldest grandson Wuji: "Lord eldest grandson, the queen is nostalgic for the old, and after seeing her, she will mention the previous days to her more, and talk to her more about Gao Shilian and Elder Gao." ”
Hearing this, Eldest Sun Wuji suddenly stopped, then turned his head and said solemnly to Fang Xuankong: "I know! ”
After that, he walked out of the small courtyard where the study was located, and urged the people in the house to hurry up and prepare a sedan chair to enter the palace.
