Early in the morning, Liu Chengfeng woke up early in the morning, and after using the pastries, he was ready to leave, and he was now anxious to know if there was any news from Jingxian. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhu Yueluo also woke up, and when she saw Liu Chengfeng's worried look, she smiled and said: "Husband, don't be anxious, if you want to let go and find out the case, you should be even more calm." As for the palace, Ming said that I would go into the palace to take a look and probe the wind. ”

Liu Chengfeng should come down and go on duty.

Liu Ji's mansion is very quiet today, Liu Ji took leave early this morning, and did not go to duty, sitting in the study, Liu Ji casually flipped through the books on the case, while drinking tea.

Sitting under the desk, it is the old housekeeper of Liu's house, this old housekeeper sits on the chair, motionless, he has served Liu Ji for half his life, and he can't be more familiar with the old man's temper, Liu Ji looks like this time, I'm afraid that he is in a good mood.

After reading the book for a while, Liu Ji dropped the book and suddenly sighed.

When the steward saw this, he couldn't help asking, "Why does the master sigh?" ”

Liu Ji said: "I originally thought that as soon as Zhou Cheng died, Liu Chengfeng would definitely die, but now there is no movement in the palace at all, which is strange, but it is Jinyiwei's side to inspect everywhere, and now it seems that the old man still underestimates that Liu Chengfeng." ”

The steward couldn't help but say: "Master, Zhou Cheng's whole family was wiped out, but the villain heard that Liu Chengfeng's holy family is long, and his authority is heavy, and the emperor favors him, even if this Liu Chengfeng is the most suspicious, presumably in the end, this matter will be a big thing and a small matter." ”

Liu Ji smiled, glanced at the confused steward, and said: "What do you know, if it is other times, this is just a trivial matter, to say something ugly, even if the emperor wants to be punished, with the relationship between the emperor and Liu Chengfeng, it is probably just a fine." But now it's different, do you know that the emperor is seriously ill today? ”

When the steward heard Liu Ji's words, he was shocked and couldn't help but say, "Seriously ill? ”

Liu Ji smiled even colder and said, "Who is Han Xin?" Han Gaozu treated him with the grace of knowing him, and he was like a brother, worshiped him as a general, and never had suspicion, even if he was convicted, Gaozu did not consider killing him, but as soon as Emperor Gaozu was critically ill, this Han Xin was immediately executed by Gaozu. Let's not talk about the far, let's just say that in this dynasty, which of so many founding fathers did not have outstanding merits, and they lived and died together with Taizu. These people are a little closer to Taizu than siblings, but why do you want Emperor Taizu to destroy them? ”

Liu Ji asked himself and answered: "If Emperor Taizu can live a long life, these people are naturally easy to say, but Taizu knows that his life span is not much, once he dies, these meritorious people have great prestige in the army, if someone has a different heart, what should the Ming Dynasty's Jiangshan Sheji do?" If Emperor Taizu's prince is the king of Yan, and he has the ability of the king of Yan, Emperor Taizu may not do anything to these heroes, but unfortunately, the prince of Emperor Taizu is not King Yan, but the grandson, the grandson is young and the surname is weak, how can he deal with these founding nobles? So when Emperor Taizu knew that his life was approaching, he went on a killing spree and executed all those nobles who had a little scheming. ”

"There is a saying called extraordinary times to do extraordinary things, now Your Majesty's situation is no different from the time of Taizu, the old emperor knows that he will not live long, and the prince is weak, what they have to do is to select the ministers who can be entrusted to ensure that the Ming Dynasty can continue, and these ministers who trust orphans, the most important thing is to be loyal and honest. And for some high-ranking ministers who are not trusted by the palace, they will be deprived of their rights, and they may even be directly executed. This Liu Chengfeng won the trust of the emperor, and he should have been the candidate for the minister of Tuogu. But as soon as Zhou Cheng died, this matter was not so simple, as a courtier, just because someone had opposed him, he did not hesitate to kill their family, this kind of person, is it still loyal? Is it still honest? A dishonest person, who is in the center, has such a heavy authority, and has even more irreversible friendship with the prince, what will be the consequences if such a person causes chaos in the future? ”

"Therefore, even if this Liu Chengfeng is deeply trusted, no matter how much the emperor protects him, how can he trust him, even if he knows that it is very likely that someone has framed him, but the emperor will never ignore this matter, do you know why?"

The steward said, "Please also ask the master to give advice." ”

Liu Ji sneered and said: "Because of the weight of the society, if Mount Tai, the palace will never dare to take the national weapon to bear this eventuality, if there is really this case, Liu Chengfeng really killed that Zhou Cheng Manmen, then this person, isn't it narrow-minded, the eyes will be retribution, loyal to the outside and cunning inside, if Your Majesty still trusts him, the prince will be entrusted to him, and his power in the future will be monstrous, such a person, if he can't be the Duke of Zhou, then it is the second Wang Mang, Your Majesty will definitely eradicate this scourge before he dies." So if the old man expected it to be true, His Majesty did not have this idea in his heart, the reason why he remained silent and left all the books criticizing Liu Chengfeng in the middle should be to read the old feelings, and give Liu Chengfeng a chance to identify himself and clear his grievances, this time will not be too long, if Liu Chengfeng can't find out something and prove his innocence, then ......"

Liu Ji sneered again and again: "Then Liu Chengfeng will definitely die!" ”

The steward couldn't help but take a deep breath, originally he looked at this matter, and heard the people talk about it, originally he was just looking at the flowers in the fog, but the master's deep words made him suddenly enlightened, it turned out that such a thing actually involved such a deep background.

The steward thought about it, and couldn't help but have the idea of getting to the bottom of it, and said, "Then what is the benefit of this matter to the master?" ”

Liu Ji smiled and said: "If I am Your Majesty, Your Majesty's original mind must be simple, most of the ministers of this Tuogu are Liu Jian, Li Dongyang, and Xie Qian, in addition, plus Liu Chengfeng and Cheng Guogong, Your Majesty's mind is also simple, although the relationship between Liu Chengfeng and Liu Jian is still harmonious, but the interests of both sides are different, so once the prince succeeds to the throne, the cabinet and Liu Chengfeng and Cheng Guogong are bound to check and balance each other, only in this way can the prince sit firmly. But what if Liu Chengfeng falls? A cabinet with a single national public energy system? ”

The housekeeper suddenly realized, and said: "The villain understands, without Liu Chengfeng, Your Majesty will never let Liu Jian and these people dominate, looking at the others, except for a Chengguo Gong, and there is no power to subdue Liu Jian and these people, then Your Majesty will definitely choose a candidate, Bingbi eunuch Xiao Jing is counted as one, Chengguo Gong is quite prestigious in the army, and now he is in charge of the Nanjing Governor's Mansion, he can also be counted as one, but it seems that Xiao Jing is a eunuch after all, and the affairs of the foreign dynasty cannot interfere much, but the influence of Chengguo Gong Wang Fu is too low, and it is far away in Nanjing, How can you stand up to the Cabinet? As long as Liu Chengfeng falls, then His Majesty will have to take into account the master. ”

Liu Ji couldn't help but smile slightly, and said: "You have followed me for so many years, and it can be regarded as an enlightenment, yes, as long as Liu Chengfeng falls, the only one in the world who can balance Liu Jian and others is the old man, and now the old man is waiting for this, the old man wants to see, what ability this Liu Chengfeng has to regain his innocence, as long as he is not clear, it is the time when the old man makes a career." ”

The steward said a few clever words, but he couldn't help but tremble in his heart, this series of plans of the master can be said to be exhausted, such a person is really terrifying, even he himself, even has an illusion, this master of his own family can see people's hearts, what about their own minds? Did the lord see through it too?

Liu Ji stretched tiredly: "It's very chaotic outside now, the old man still says the same thing, the people in this mansion are not allowed to make trouble at will these days, and stay in the mansion honestly." ”

The steward said, "The villain knows."

Liu Ji suddenly narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "That Wantong may not be reliable, this person is very cunning, but he also has to be careful, let the person, to keep an eye on him, who he has visited, who he has been dealing with recently, he has to report it." ”

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… Wanfu.

Wantong looked very anxious, turning around the hall with his hands behind his back, now Zhou Cheng is indeed dead, but Zhou Cheng's death made him unhappy, originally Liu Ji repeatedly promised that as long as Zhou Cheng died, Liu Chengfeng would definitely fall, but now ...... Liu Chengfeng not only did not collapse, but took the captain around to move around, if this matter is really found out a little eyebrow, it is equivalent to giving the palace a handle to clean him up, and his net worth and surname will be over.

"Master, someone is here." A servant from outside hurried in, and said in a hurried voice.

Wantong put his hands behind his back, his eyes couldn't help but light up, as if the drowning man had grasped a life-saving straw, and hurriedly said, "Where is it?" ”

"It's just outside the house, and it's coming in a moment."

Wantong perked up and said, "Please, invite them in." Yes, I also went to pour tea, served tea, and let people keep an eye on it outside the house, presumably there are secret agents of the factory guard outside the house, so I watched it. ”

"Yes, the villain will do it, what else does the master command?"

Wantong seemed to think of something, and then straightened his clothes, his face became calm, and then he found a place to sit down, took a deep breath, and the panic of the lost dog was finally replaced by a sense of calmness.
