Chapter 441: Temporary Departure

"Brother Xiao, it is inevitable that I will be punished this time, I just hope that there will be a conclusion to the matter, and that the new Qincha of the imperial court can reach Miaojiang as much as possible, so that my responsibilities can be sorted out." There was some helplessness in Dewey's words.

"Brother Du, Xiao thinks you can't just wait for the arrival of the new Lord Qincha here, what if the Qincha of the imperial court is delayed? I think you need to prepare something in advance. ”

Xiao Yao knew that Dewey had already had a way to deal with it, and this person, like Peng Shan, was an out-and-out cunning fox.

"What are you going to prepare, look at my side, now there are only two liaison officers left outside, what else can I do?" Dewey continued to feign helplessness.

"Brother Du, the development of things is at this point, the key is how the court wants it to end, not the truth of the matter itself, if the court really wants to calm the anger of the Miao Territory Tusi, then someone will become a scapegoat, not to mention Kang Qincha, other officials in Xingyuan are estimated to be investigated, and you are the highest-ranking official in Xingyuan, and many spearheads will be pointed at you."

Since Dewey pretended to be helpless, Xiao Yao decided to make him even more helpless.

"Brother Xiao, although we have the identity of the shadow guard, but that is not visible, so brother, I am really in trouble this time." Dewey sighed and poured bitter water.

Looking at Dewey's appearance, Xiao Yao also felt that he should come up with some dry goods, "Brother Du, these toasts have jointly signed an excerpt to publicly impeach Kang Qincha, and there are a lot of articles here." ”

Dewey looked at Xiao Yao, "Brother Xiao, I know what you mean, but there are some things that you and I can't participate in." ”

"Brother Du, they said that Kang Qin sent a bribe, so where is the stolen money?" Xiao Yao once again introduced a key point.

"The whereabouts of the stolen money, more than one million taels of silver, this is a key issue, but when Kang Qin died, I was not in Phoenix Mountain at all, and now I can't even find the corpse in the capital, how can we investigate?" Dewey listened to Xiao Yao's words and suddenly became a little excited.

"Who Kang Qincha has been with in the end, of course, starts the investigation." Xiao Yao began to follow the temptation.

"You mean King Miao? Although the real power of King Miao is very small, but nominally he is the governor of the four provinces of Miaojiang, from the first grade, we have no right to investigate him directly, which requires Dali Temple or the Imperial Historical Observatory of the Metropolitan Procuratorate to ask the Holy Decree to investigate. Dewey looked at Xiao Yao and said sternly.

"We're not going to investigate King Miao, and everyone finally came to Xizhou, do you still want to return to Phoenix Mountain, Brother Du?" Xiao Yao also looked at Dewey.

"What do you mean, brother?" Dewey asked.

"Now the imperial court has not yet determined this issue, and the new Qincha has not arrived, the original Qincha Xingyuan is still there, Brother Du, you are now the highest military commander of Xingyuan, what if the text asks King Miao to find Kang Qincha's body and relics? Isn't that the duty of his local governor? Xiao Yao said with a smile.

"If King Miao doesn't cooperate, it will be tantamount to suing everyone that he has a problem, and if King Miao cooperates, he will help find the whereabouts of the stolen money and pick himself out from Kang Qincha, and the other Tusi of Miao Jiang are also watching King Miao's position." Dewey immediately analyzed the key to this.

"What's more, even if King Miao doesn't cooperate for various reasons, or can't find Kang Qincha's relics, then this investigation conclusion is also made by him, and you have nothing to do with Brother Du. The most important thing is that you pointed out the problem of stolen money to Miao Wang and others, this is not a small amount of money, it is a million taels of silver, I believe that many people will be tempted, the various toasts in Miao Jiang will be tempted, and the people in the court will also be tempted, what do you say they will do? Xiao Yao continued to guide Dewey.

"The Tusi of Miao Jiang will suspect that King Miao has embezzled that silver, and he will also send someone to investigate secretly, and the imperial court will definitely send someone to Miao Jiang to deal with this problem, then we can clear the responsibility, even if there is a problem, it is also the responsibility of Kang Qincha and his henchmen!" The more Dewey spoke, the more excited he became, and his eyes brightened brighter and brighter.

"The most important thing now is that Kang Qincha's Xingyuan in Miao Jiang is no longer under our control, so we must immediately ask King Miao to send all the official documents and the rest of the personnel of Fenghuang Mountain Xingyuan to Xizhou in the name of Qincha Xingyuan. Moreover, it is necessary to seize all kinds of official documents of other branches, so that the new Qincha can carry out his work smoothly. Xiao Yao began to build further.

"Now the Phoenix Mountain Xingyuan is estimated to be under the actual control of King Miao, or the four major Miao descendants jointly control it, and they must have read all kinds of official documents in it, but those official documents are all plain texts, so naturally there will be no problems, the key is to hope that Kang Qin will not have any secret letters in their hands." Dewey was still a little worried.

"It's just that we don't have a way to send people to investigate these now, so what they send back can only be what they want us to see, and the other Xingyuan, that is, the Huzhou Xingyuan, which is the Xingyuan before the Qincha first entered Miaojiang, and the official documents and letters that come and go are also forwarded through Guò, so our key is to seize the Huzhou Xingyuan." There was a hint of determination in Dewey's words.

"Brother Du, Phoenix Mountain Xingyuan, Miao Wang, they are responsible for the seizure, it is more appropriate than us to seize it, anyway, it is in their hands, they went to seal it, although they gave them a reason, but the responsibility is also on them, as for Huzhou Xingyuan, we just need to issue a document to seal it, now there must be a lot of people staring there, and the matter after the seizure will be handed over to the new Qincha." Xiao Yao knew that Dewey must not be allowed to fall too deep in this matter.

"Actually, before you came, Brother Xiao, I also thought about it, but after all, the seizure of Xingyuan is a bit beyond my authority, but now that Qincha is dead, Qincha's seal letter has also been lost, and it also involves the issue of stolen money, and the seizure of Xingyuan is equivalent to standing on the side of the new Qincha, so will our position be revealed too early." Dewey asked Xiao Yao.

"We have no position, we just faithfully complete our duties, since the new Qincha represents the imperial court, then we naturally have to think about him, for him, that is, for the imperial court, and who the imperial court sends to be this imperial mission itself shows the attitude of the imperial court." Xiao Yao understands the complexity of this officialdom, but Dewey is still affected by his status as a shadow guard in this matter, and he always doesn't want to come to the forefront.

It's just that if you don't do anything now, it will be tantamount to giving up the initiative to other forces, and once the person who is the prime minister comes to be the minister again, Dewey will be really dangerous, and Dewey will be the best scapegoat at that time.

Dewey helped himself, Xiao Yao didn't want him to fall into this danger, even if the identity of the shadow guard could save Dewey's life, but Kang Qin didn't know Dewey's identity, it didn't mean that the prime minister didn't know, so the identity of the shadow guard had no deterrent effect in front of the prime minister at all, so Dewey would only get darker and darker.

Keeping Dewey now is equivalent to saving himself a lot of trouble in the future, Xiao Yao doesn't want Dewey to have problems now.

"Brother Du, you also have to write to Peng's Tusi and other major Tusi as Qincha's Xingyuan, asking them to cooperate with the investigation of Kang Qincha's death, the court has not yet reached a conclusion on the issue of Kang Qincha, and the investigator has not arrived, but it is your responsibility to be responsible for the safety of Kang Qincha, so you must write about all the main Tusi." Xiao Yao knew that Dewey was used to being a spy, and he always forgot his identity as an official.

Hearing Xiao Yao's words, Dewey's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Yes, to the various Tusi Mansions, this is equivalent to reversing our current identity in Miaojiang, before the new Qincha came to Xizhou, we can't leave Miaojiang, now our identity in Miaojiang is too embarrassing, those Tusi jointly impeached Kang Qincha, we became accomplices, and they asked to cooperate with the investigation of Kang Qincha's death, which gave us a legal identity now, that is, the head of the forbidden army guard sent by the imperial court to be responsible for the safety of Qincha." Obviously, Dewey was very satisfied with Xiao Yao's construction.

In this way, it not only gave Dewey a legal identity, but also used Kang Qincha's death to suppress the various Tusi in Miaojiang, they were suspicious, and at the same time, Dewey himself gave himself a new authority in the name of the Qincha Xingyuan, that is, to continue to be responsible for the deployment of the Qincha Xingyuan before the arrival of the new Qincha.

As long as Dewey had this name, he could further mobilize those who had returned from within Miaojiang, and he could also force the various Tusi to send back the people who were still stranded in Phoenix Mountain.

In this way, a new Qincha Xingyuan can be rebuilt, and you can also have the right to mobilize the 100 Qincha Xingyuan escort cavalry, and at the same time, there is no need to worry, the Xizhou general stationed nearby will take the opportunity to eliminate Dewey's only bit of military power, and the Jiangnan governor of Huzhou will not be able to take over the Huzhou Qincha Xingyuan, which is still an empty shelf.

Xiao Yao's construction is equivalent to the arrival of the new Qincha, all the rights of the Qincha Xingyuan are incorporated into Dewey's hands, and it also helps Dewey control the actions of other people, that Kang Yong is dead, but there are still other living officials in the Qincha Xingyuan, if they go their own way, when Dewey, as the most official military officer, loses his control over the situation, so he can only be slaughtered by others.

Now this window period of rights is just the opportunity for Dewey, and he did not order the removal of Kang Qincha's status as a Qincha, nor did he order the removal of Qincha's Xingyuan, so this last bit of power must be fully utilized, and Dewey's doing so is tantamount to restricting the various forces from arbitrarily rewriting the current Miaojiang issue in a certain way.
