Chapter 512: A stalemate
It is said that Li You secretly arranged for people to spread rumors indiscriminately, and the ancient carving made the Dengwengu case make several parties feel out of control.
Peng Ge Lao, who had been hiding behind the scenes on the surface, was suddenly pushed into the spotlight, as if he had been beaten with a stick: the eldest princess of Guide, who was secretly accumulating strength and was already preparing to make a sneak attack, suddenly found that the secret weapon had become the focus of discussion, and she could only urgently restrain her horse.
For Peng Ge Lao, using the matter of the Lu family to hit Li You was purely a matter of doing it after learning what happened to the Lu family, and there was not much other purpose.
His idea is to use the Lu family as a tool, and he himself hides in the shadows, whether he succeeds or not, there will be nothing to lose, so why not? After all, the Lu family has grasped a reason, Lu Shangzhi should not have been detained for so many days, and with his support, it is not difficult for the Lu family to have the upper hand in a lawsuit with Li You.
His relationship with the Lu family is relatively secret, and there are a few cronies who know about it, but it is not extensive and does not affect anything. In other words, it is not a big deal for others to know that the Lu family has his support. Therefore, Peng Ge didn't take this matter too seriously, and felt that everything was under control.
But now that things have come to this point, involving all forces, it is obviously not an indifferent situation, and it is completely beyond his expectations.
At this time, the relationship between him and the Lu family was spread as a rumor. No matter what others think of the rumors, he has gone from being an invisible person behind the scenes to the focus of others' attention, and the whole thing has been given various meanings, and the opposing situation has been created and developed into a situation that he cannot easily control.
It should also be noted that the relationship with the Lu family may not be a big deal, but if because of the involvement of the Lu family, he gathered the relevant party of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Shuntianfu, and the Criminal Department to make the case of Dengwengu made public, then the nature would be different. That's the big problem.
Of course, what made Peng Ge Lao even more uncontrollable was the sudden appearance of the eldest princess of Guide, which was not something he could control.
As far as Guide Chitose is concerned, she used means to secretly subdue the Lu family, and she wanted to be used as a surprise soldier on Peng Ge Lao. Originally, the affairs of the Lu family were not lethal to the elder-level bigwigs, but by surprise and with all kinds of other measures, the effect could be multiplied.
Now before she can launch it, the relationship between the Lu family and Peng Ge Lao has spread widely, whether others believe it or not, then Peng Ge Lao will be hell if he is not vigilant. Therefore, Guide Chitose can be sure that Peng Ge Lao must have been vigilant and want to make a move, and the effect of using the Lu family will be discounted.
After all, Peng Ge is a senior scholar, what countermeasures will he have, and the eldest princess of Guide is not confident that he will be able to deal with it.
In other words, Guide Chitose was originally facing Peng Ge Lao, who was unsuspecting, and he was very sure. Now he has become Peng Ge Lao, who is bound to be prepared, which is of course out of control compared to the initial situation.
The eldest princess of Guide is more sober than Peng Ge Lao in that she can guess who created the rumors, and Peng Ge Lao can only be full of suspicions about this, not understanding who did it.
Fortunately, a certain despicable and shameless person who refuses to suffer losses still has a bottom line, but the rumors of the Lu family and Elder Yue did not say anything about the "rumors" such as the Lu family being bought by the eldest princess. "Otherwise, the Lu family's card will be completely invalid.
If you want to say that the most helpless at the moment is Chang Feng, the left waiter of the Criminal Department, because he "automatically asked the Son of Heaven to ask for help." "We have to track down what happened behind the scenes. Now that this rumor has broken out, others can hear it as a joke, but he must take action, at least make it clear that he is inquiring about it.
Whether the rumors are true or not, others may want to discuss and speculate, but he knows that it is of course true. But it was only because it was true that he was in a dilemma. …,
If the truth is found out and it is announced that the Lu family was indeed instructed by Peng Gelao, then I am afraid that Peng Gelao will be the first to eat him: if it is for personal gain and it is concluded that the Lu family has no close relationship with Peng Gelao, then who can be sure that the person who spread the rumors has evidence? In case the certificate is thrown out at that time, it will look good.
But he said that among the thirteen Shilang who surrounded Chang Shilang some time ago, all of them are now gone. Chang Daren also vaguely heard gossip and complaints in the ministry, saying that he Chang Shilang really caused disasters and brought continuous troubles into the criminal department that "has no quarrel with the world".
When I heard that the Dengwengu case was going to be tried, the defendant was still Li You, who was fighting for power with the Criminal Department.
Now that the eldest princess has been tried, and then there is an old Peng Ge, the fragrant dumplings have become hot potatoes, and a group of officials have avoided it, it is really a hot and cold world!
As for the other courtiers, not everyone is qualified to mediate between the scholar and the eldest princess. Those who have this qualification are mostly watching the excitement.
If you exonerate Peng Ge Lao, you are afraid that you will be hated by the eldest princess, if you help the eldest princess say a few words, then Peng Ge Lao is not a vegetarian, so he will not be offended.
At this point, the whole thing is at a stalemate for the time being, because everyone's mind is certain and uncertain, and they have to wait and see how things develop. In this way, Li You achieved his goal.
"What exactly do you want to do?" The eldest princess of Guide invited Master Li over and asked through gritted teeth. Although she brought her lover in on the day her son caught Zhou, how could her lover act without saying hello affected her plan.
Li You replied without any guilt: "This is also for your own good!" In fact, you can influence the government in secret, but this time you are so fanfare and aggressive, do you really want to overthrow Peng Ge Lao in one fell swoop? Have you considered the consequences? ”
"Suppose Elder Peng Ge is unlucky as you wish, and what benefits can you get as the eldest princess? How will the courtiers re-perceive you? To put it more seriously, in the hearts of civil officials, you who can influence the whereabouts of the old cabinet are only afraid that you will become a public enemy! ”
In the end, Master Li said confidently: "How can I watch you go further and further down the wrong path? At this time, it is not too late to rein in the precipice! So I deliberately spread some rumors to make Peng Ge Lao vigilant and take precautions in the affairs of the Lu family, and finally suffer a little loss but not be knocked down by you! ”
"Seeing that you are now open-minded, I am worried that I will not be able to persuade you, so I will cut it first and then play. You don't need to thank you for my hard work! ”
The eldest princess of Guide sneered a few times and said, "What are you nervous about, who said that my target is Peng Ge Lao?" ”
"And what do you want to put on a position?" Li You asked.
"It's the position of the head of the household, if you want to force Peng Ge to spit out the position of the head of the head of the household and open the kind of silver account you want, don't you need the support of the head of the household?" …… PS: What a mess for Kavenka, I can only hope to get through it sooner, there will definitely be an update today.
