Li Wu saw that there was something in Huang Tao's words, and couldn't help but ask: "Unless what?" ”
Huang Tao glanced at Li Wu with disdain, and couldn't help but feel contempt in his heart, and the words had come to this point, and this guy didn't know whether he was really confused or fake. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
He licked his lips, couldn't help but smile, and said: "Unless this matter is the fault of the Hou Liu Chengfeng of Lianzhou, let me tell you the truth, the conquest of Annan, the imperial court has no will, it is all planned by Liu Chengfeng alone, this Liu Chengfeng has a thought, it will cause such a big disaster in your country, is your country indifferent, if this case is opened, but your country is swallowing its anger, only afraid of ......"
Speaking of being afraid, Huang Tao took a sip of tea and said with a light smile: "I'm afraid that there will be more and more such things in the future. ”
When Li Wu heard this, he looked indifferent, and said, "What is the purpose of the adult, is it just this?" ”
Huang Tao was not happy or angry, thinking that this Li Wu could sit still, and at this time, he was still testing himself. The other party obviously thought that he was here to test Annan's thoughts, I am afraid that the Ming court was afraid that Annan would be dissatisfied, and after thinking about it, Huang Tao sat up straight, feeling that he should be open and honest at this time.
He said: "Let's tell you the truth, now Liu Chengfeng has been convicted and imprisoned in the prison of Shuntianfu, this person is extremely evil, even the current emperor, and he also has a lot of hatred for him, but he has some merits, so he has not made up his mind to add the crime, if at this time, your country can be in front of the Ming Emperor during the audience, expose the various bad deeds of this Liu Chengfeng for the disaster of Annan, and then contact the envoys of the vassal countries, he will definitely be able to make him never turn over." That's all I have to say, Master Li is a smart person, I must understand what I mean, okay, the old man said goodbye. ”
Huang Tao knew in his heart that it was enough to stop at this point, and saying more would have the opposite effect, so he got up and left.
Li Wu sat on the chair, obviously didn't expect Huang Tao to say this, it seems that the interior of this Ming Dynasty is not monolithic, that Liu Chengfeng seems to call for wind and rain, it is only in Lianzhou, and when he arrives in this Jingshi, it seems to be ...... Li Wu's eyes narrowed, and then he ordered, "Come on, go and invite Mr. Ruan, and tell him that there is something wrong with the Ming people......
"Yes......" A servant replied and hurried away.
That Huang Tao came out of Honglu Temple, got into a sedan chair that had been waiting for a long time, sat in the sedan chair, and then lightly instructed the sedan chair drivers: "Go to Xu's Mansion." ”
Xu Mansion is the mansion of Xu Guan, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, this Lord Xu is the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, but the style is not extravagant, the so-called Xu Mansion is just an entry and an exit of the courtyard, there are seven or eight wings on the left and right, raising more than a dozen people, but the trees in the courtyard are shady, very chic in the south of the Yangtze River, but now the autumn breeze is bleak, and there are only bare trees left in the courtyard, which is a little more desolate.
Huang Tao walked straight into the Xu Mansion, and the porter obviously recognized him, gave him a smile in return, and did not lead him in.
The main hall of Xu's mansion was a little magnificent, and at this time, Xu Guan was sitting on a pear wood chair, half-squinting, motionless, as if he was recuperating.
Sitting under Xu Guan were five or six officials, some of them sitting wide open, and some of them bowed slightly, showing excessive respect.
Standing in this hall was an official of the Shuntian Mansion, who must have been just a hall official, with a humble status, and he was not even qualified to sit, but his words were endless.
"In the last few days, except for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who has visited the prison, the rest are only a few family members of Liu Chengfeng, by the way, Shou Ninghou and Jian Changbo have also been there, and they left in a hurry. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince talked with him in the cell for half an hour before he came out, but His Highness seemed to be in a better mood than when he went in, and he didn't know what they said. ”
"But in the Shuntian Mansion, Zhou Tai and Liu Chengfeng are very close, and they always go to see Liu Chengfeng once in a while, look at his attitude, and he is very respectful to Liu Chengfeng."
A man in a crimson official coat sitting on the side sneered, "Can you not get close?" I don't want to think about it, who brought it up this week, this person is really swept away, Jinshi and first, but he is carrying shoes for a martial artist Qianhu, phew......"
Xu Guan, who was sitting on the chair, just frowned and did not speak.
The hall official of Shuntian Mansion glanced at Xu Guan and continued: "Then there will be no more, Liu Chengfeng is very quiet in prison, every day he only reads and writes, and there is no contact person to complain or make trouble. ”
"Is this person confident, or is he acting like this to confuse me?" An official on the left couldn't help but ask.
The officials sitting on both sides began to talk one after another, obviously unable to guess Liu Chengfeng's thoughts.
"Hey......" Xu Guan suddenly sighed.
With this sigh, the discussion disappeared without a trace, and everyone couldn't help but look at Xu Guan, wanting to hear what Master Shangshu had to say.
Xu Guan said with a look of pity: "What did the old man say before? Enough is the right way to go, but what about you? Blatantly and unscrupulously, sooner or later this will happen to the East Window Incident. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is training the new army, and you dare to make up your mind on this, do you really think that others can't help you? ”
Xu Guan's face showed coldness, and he spread his hands: "It's okay now, the East Window incident happened, the matter has come to this point, it involves the prince, it involves the palace, and even the cabinet doesn't dare to say anything, what is this?" This is because everyone knows that this kind of thing can only be decided by the emperor, and now everyone is watching what the emperor will do. To put it mildly, if the emperor really listened to Liu Chengfeng's tricks, you and I would all die without a place to be buried. ”
Xu Guan's words scared everyone so much that they didn't dare to squeak.
Xu Guan glanced at them coldly, and where his gaze fell, these people hurriedly lowered their heads, not daring to look directly into Xu Guan's eyes.
A trace of coldness flashed in Xu Guan's eyes, and then he said: "But things have come to this point, what's the use of what the old man says, are you willing to listen to what he says?" He sighed, picked up the long beard under his chin, and said slowly: "Since there is no room for maneuver, there is only you who live and die, the people of Jingwei have already sent a letter, what they said is not wrong, Liu Chengfeng must die, he will stay for a long time, everyone will not be alive." ”
"You guys, always staring at this Liu Chengfeng, always watching what he does, to guess his next move. But the old man saw that Liu Chengfeng didn't have to teach people to stare anymore, he had to ask people to stare at Jubao Firm, stare at Xueerbao, stare at Jinyiwei, and even ......" Xu Guan's eyes flashed, his voice lowered a little, and he said lightly: "Even the East Palace, it is the crown prince, you have to pay attention to their every move in order to guess their next move." ”
"As the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing that the other is invincible, but this one is not Liu Chengfeng, it is the people that the old man just said, Liu Chengfeng is now reading and writing, what is it for? It's just to distract us. This man has always been cunning and should not be underestimated. ”
After saying so much, Xu Guan went to drink tea. As for the other officials, when Xu Guan spoke, everyone listened attentively, and even breathed cautiously, for fear that this exhalation and inhalation would interrupt Lord Shangshu's words. Everyone knows that this Lord Xu is an old minister of the Three Dynasties and an old qualification, who would dare to interrupt his words?
After drinking the tea, Xu Guan coughed and continued: "Since you have made up your mind, if you want to get rid of this person, you can't be soft-hearted, but his current identity is too sensitive, the East Palace washes horses, Jinyi Wei Qianhu, and is the Marquis of Lianzhou, at this time, the palace will shake, and it will definitely not be spared, and it will definitely be thoroughly investigated." I'm afraid that when the time comes, even Jinyiwei and the cabinet will be dissatisfied, after all, assassinating court officials is too taboo. So the top priority at the moment is to confirm Liu Chengfeng's crime, the Ministry of Industry Director Wu said well, Annan people and Liu Chengfeng do not share the sky, then let them come forward, after a few days the countries in the Forbidden City to meet, if at that time the envoys of Annan are willing to make trouble, when the time comes, everyone will be impeached together, Your Majesty is pretending to be confused again, I am afraid that I will not be perfunctory, I will dismiss him, strip him of his title, things will be much easier, and the rest will be handed over to Jingwei to deal with. ”
Everyone nodded and said, "That's what my lord said." ”
Xu Guan smiled slightly: "You also have this little ability, when there is no accident, you are empty-eyed, and when something happens, you will have this little courage, that's it, the old man has also said what he should have said, so Huang Tao and Lord Huang haven't come yet?" ”
As he was talking, a voice came from outside: "My lord, the next official is here." ”
Huang Tao stepped in with a smile on his face, and after coming in, he gave Xu Guan a salute and said, "Xiaguan has seen my lord." ”
Xu Guan pressed his hand and said, "Don't do this set of false etiquette with the old man, how is the matter going?" ”
Huang Tao smiled slightly, and said: "I have already passed the gas with the envoy of Annan, and the words are very clear, as long as they are willing to do it, Liu Chengfeng will definitely not protect the official and will be abolished." ”
Xu Guan nodded: "This may not be appropriate, the people of Annan have always been untrustworthy, but I am afraid that they may not be willing to do their best." ”
Honglu Temple is specialized in dealing with the vassal state, Annan and Lianzhou's festival, Huang Tao as Honglu Temple is aware of the clear, at this time it is a sworn guarantee: "My lord, rest assured, Annan people and Liu Chengfeng do not share the sky, once there is a chance, Liu Chengfeng will definitely be put to death." ”
"Really?" Xu Guan looked suspicious, then smiled slightly, and said: "Okay, and I believe you this time, since this is the case, then wait until two days later, when the envoys of all countries meet the Son of Heaven, you all have to make some preparations." ”
