Chapter 211: The Traitor and the Good Man

"Cut down? How to cut down? Don't you also want to learn Cheng De and collude with those ocean thieves? Luo Min's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, and he said with a smile.

"If you can defeat Cheng De, it is okay to collude with that ocean thief." Lin Wanrong glanced at Luo Min with a smile: "Lord Luo, this Cheng De has done a lot of evil things, why have you been participating in him?" It stands to reason that even if there is someone behind Cheng De, but there is still an emperor standing behind you, no matter how powerful that person is, it can't be as big as the emperor. On the day of the old lady's birthday, the emperor personally gave a plaque, and arranged many palace guards to protect your safety. But in the face of corrupt officials who are constantly participating in the performances of the people he values, why would the emperor be indifferent? ”

Luo Min's eyes flashed, and he said, "Lin Gongzi really has extraordinary insights. To tell you the truth, Lord Xu also mentioned the reason for this to me, but he was vague. Later, he also specifically mentioned the name of Gongzi, it seems that Mr. Wenchang already knew that Gongzi Lin could relieve my worries. Childe, please continue. ”

Damn, I said Luo Min, how could this old fox call me in a hurry, it turned out that Xu Wei was the right person to teach me face-to-face, Xu Wei must have some words that he couldn't say clearly, so he had to ask me to answer, this old man is also very cunning.

Lin Wanrong said: "In this case, has Lord Luo thought carefully about the reason for this? ”

Luo Min sighed and said, "How can we who are officials not figure out the holy will? Cheng De was corrupt and perverted the law, and the evidence was conclusive, but the emperor pretended to turn a blind eye, not only me, but also many other colleagues felt strange. If it was a few years ago, the emperor's foundation was not firmly established, and the time had not come, so Cheng De was not moved, which was still in the past. But now, the emperor is no longer afraid of the master behind Cheng De, and it is time to cut off his hands and feet, but why not move. What's more, Cheng De colluded with the White Lotus Sect to shake the foundation of my Dahua, and it is really impossible to say that he will not be dealt with again. ”

Lin Wanrong paced a few steps, then suddenly turned around and said, "Lord Luo, I don't think it's necessarily that the emperor is not in a hurry." This country is his, he cares more than anyone else, how can he keep a scourge like Cheng De? At the moment, there are demons inside, and enemies outside, according to me, the emperor is not in a hurry, but more anxious than you. ”

Luo Min frowned and said, "More urgent than me? He hurriedly took two steps, thought carefully for a while, his face suddenly became happy, and he turned around and said, "I understand." Lin Gongzi, as you said, the emperor doesn't want to do this, but he wants to do Cheng De more than anyone else. It's just that if you want to participate in Cheng De, it is not a day's work, I use the method of participation, and the effect is very slow, and if it drags on like this, it will be harmful to the court. That's why the emperor dragged it outβ€”" A hint of excitement flashed in Luo Min's eyes: "-- he wanted me to do it all with one blow." ”

"So he didn't do Cheng De, but he rewarded you, the purpose is to let you continue to work." Lin Wanrong said with a smile: "If my expectations are right, the more aggressive your means, the more the emperor likes it." It's best to solve Cheng De at once, I'm afraid the emperor will secretly laugh in his dreams. ”

"The more aggressive you are, the more you like it? The emperor wants me to kill-" Luo Min slapped his forehead and said, "I understand, no wonder Mr. Xu refuses to tell me clearly." ”

Luo Min waved at Lin Wanrong and said, "Lin Gongzi really woke up my dream person with a word, and the old man admired it so much." If the prince enters the court, he will definitely soar and become prosperous, and the king will worship the prime minister, which is just around the corner. ”

Lin Wanrong said with a smile: "I have no interest in being an official, as long as I have money to spend all my life, I will be satisfied." ”

Luo Min nodded and said: "Lin Gongzi has lofty ambitions, and he is really not as old as he is, but I also ask Lin Gongzi to teach me a way to do Cheng De." ”

Lin Wanrong said with a smile: "What did Lord Xu Wei bring with him when he came to Jinling this time?" ”

"Decrees, gold medals, and talismans." Luo Min said.

"Lord Xu has some things that are inconvenient to say, in fact, these few things are enough to do Cheng De." Lin Wanrong said with a smile: "Lord Xu mobilized soldiers and horses from Zhejiang and Shandong, with heavy troops in his hands and gold medals in his hands, as long as Lord Luo provided evidence of the crime, Lord Xu went directly to get Cheng De." What if Cheng De is in charge of the Jiangsu Infantry Battalion? He dared to resist, but he didn't even use an excuse and killed him directly. ”

"What if he resists?" Luo Min asked hurriedly.

"Don't resist?" Lin Wanrong smiled and said, "Lord Luo, you won't think of a way to make him resist?" Tell me, what is the most taboo thing for the emperor? ”

Luo Min said: "Of course someone rebelled. ”

"That's right." Lin Wanrong clapped his hands and said: "Cheng De is the commander of Jiangsu, and the yard at home should not be small." I see that Lord Luo has countless strange people, maybe look more in his backyard, and you can find something interesting like a golden sword and jade seal. This general, holding the power of the army, will be somewhat suspicious, if such a thing really happens, do you think Cheng De will sit and let you take it, or will he resist desperately? ”

Luo Min gasped, this Lin Gongzi didn't enter the officialdom, but he was more ruthless than me.

"Cheng De does not have many soldiers and horses, and his troops are weak, saying that he is rebelling, I am afraid that no one in the DPRK will believe it." Luo Min frowned and said, "What's more, if he is really killed, how will the criminal department and the court explain it." ”

This official, when he wants to be insidious, he can do anything, and when he hesitates, he shrinks his head and tail more than anyone else, even if Lao Luo is an old fox, he can't escape from this fame and fortune officialdom.

Lin Wanrong said: "Lord Luo, believe it or not, it's one thing, but what needs to be done must be done, you now understand why Lord Xu can't speak directly to you." I think he should have a word for you at the same timeβ€”"

"What?" Luo Min asked hurriedly.

Lin Wanrong said: "I think when he takes that Cheng De, he must only be dead, not alive-" He glanced at Luo Min, his words turned around, and said with a smile: "My lord, I can just say what I say, you can listen to it, don't take it to heart." ”

Luo Min's eyes narrowed, and he said with a smile: "I naturally save this, but if I really handle Cheng De on the spot, how can I explain it to the Criminal Department?" ”

Lin Wanrong sighed: "As soon as a person dies, there is nothing, as for whether he rebelled or not, whether there is anyone willing to believe it, it doesn't matter anymore." Besides, didn't you 'search' something in his house? He also has evidence of his corruption and perversion of the law. ”

Luo Min shook his head and said: "Lin Gongzi, you don't know much about his master's ability, once this Cheng De dies, his master will definitely not give up." ”

Lin Wanrong suddenly said: "Lord Luo, what do you think of the emperor treating you so kindly?" ”

This sentence sounded like there was no beginning or end, Luo Min was stunned for a moment, but he had been in officialdom for a long time, and he didn't understand the meaning of his words. Beads of sweat rolled down his forehead suddenly, and his face turned pale. He was silent for a while, and finally nodded, "Childe, I understand." ”

Lin Wanrong sighed and said, "Lord Luo, you may not be as pessimistic as you imagined. You have the evidence of Cheng De's corruption and perversion of the law in your hand, and there is also 'evidence' of Cheng De's rebellion, even if you cross the line a little, it is not a big deal. Sin does not lead to death, at most the black yarn is lost. But, if you think about it, you have done this, and you have left aside the benefit of the people, who is the happiest among them? The one behind you, of course. Even if he is forced by the situation to temporarily depose you for a few years, your status in his mind is definitely not ordinary. ”

He sighed slightly and said, "Of course, these things are all my random guesses, and they are also very naΓ―ve. You have been in the court for a long time, and your judgment of right and wrong is naturally much clearer than mine. You don't have to take these words to heart as a reference. ”

Of course, Lin Wanrong's guess was Lin Wanrong's guess, but such a story has been played countless times in the novel and on TV, and Lin Wanrong guessed some eyebrows, and it was not much difficulty. Luo Min is an old official, so he naturally has a deep understanding of this kind of thing, and the more he thinks about it, the more it makes sense.

"Schelling Gongzi instructs." Luo Min sighed and said with a firm expression: "I know what to do." ”

Seeing that Lao Luo was so impassioned, Lin Wanrong also felt a little ashamed in his heart, Fang Cai's words were more or less selfish to him, but that Cheng De's collusion with the White Lotus Sect was indeed true, and solving him could be regarded as a good thing for the people of Jiangsu.

"Lord Luo, maybe you should ask Mr. Xu again." Lin Wanrong is colorful.

Luo Minlang smiled: "I have already asked Mr. Wen Chang, although he didn't say it explicitly, but the meaning of the words, the old man can guess a few points." The emperor treats me like a mountain, gives me brocade food, and shades my clan, even if I lose my life, I will definitely complete what he has told me. What's more, in addition to Cheng De, it is for the well-being of the people. Although I, Luo Min, am a little tactful, but I also have a little loyalty to myself, and I should do things for the well-being of the people. ”

Lin Wanrong saw that his eyebrows were clear, and he was very righteous when he spoke, and said in his heart, he really underestimated Lao Luo before, and this old man still had a bit of backbone. He smiled and said, "Lord Luo, although you are a bit cunning as an official, you are still a good official. ”

Luo Min laughed and said, "Lin Gongzi, I like to hear this the most." How can you not be a traitor as an official, the better the official, the more you have to learn to be traitorous, but Lin Gongzi, you are so knowledgeable and thoughtful, if you enter the officialdom, it will definitely be impressive. ”

Lin Wanrong said with a smile: "What am I going to do when I am an official, am I going to be a traitor?" I'm enough of a traitor now. However, like Lord Luo, although I am a traitor, I am also a good person. ”

The two glanced at each other, and a sense of confidant arose, and they immediately burst out laughing.
