702: The Right Choice (2 more)
"Fifth Uncle?"
Since Cheng Rong's death, Cheng Wu's fifth master has entered Beijing for the second time.
The year Cheng Rong died, Master Cheng Wu went to Beijing to live in Shangshu Mansion, this time, Master Cheng Wu came directly to Cheng Qing, he came for Cheng Qing.
"Xiaolang, you have suffered hardship!"
Before the dust on his body was washed away, Master Cheng Wu said this to Cheng Qing, Cheng Qing didn't feel that he had anything to suffer, but after killing his biological father Cheng Zhiyuan, the care from the trusted elders still made Cheng Qing very useful.
Master Cheng Wu rushed to the capital for Cheng Qing and the entire Cheng family.
After Cheng Zhiyuan took the box from Uncle Qi under the identity of Mr. Zhang, Uncle Qi was frightened and hated, feeling that it was too worthless to be afraid of only himself for the great crime of rebellion that Cheng Zhiyuan participated in.
Uncle Qi thought about it, so he simply went to Nanyi County to find Cheng Wu, and told Cheng Wuye about Cheng Zhiyuan's collusion with foreign races and the hiding of dragon robes and jade seals.
Uncle Qi thought that Master Cheng Wu would be so frightened that his butt would flow, but Master Cheng Wu said very calmly that he knew, and warned Uncle Qi that if you want the Qi family to be safe and sound, it is best to keep this matter in your heart and not cause another incident.
After sending Uncle Qi away, Master Cheng Wu packed his luggage and went to the capital.
In the end, he is old, not as fast as Cheng Zhiyuan and Cheng Qing's itinerary, he arrived in the capital more than ten years late, and when Cheng Wu arrived, Cheng Zhiyuan was seriously injured and jumped into the river.
Seeing that Cheng Qing was safe and sound, Master Cheng Wu breathed a sigh of relief.
However, Master Cheng Wu did not completely let go of his worries because of this.
Cheng Qing shouldn't have appeared in the capital at this time!
Someone happened to take the box in Uncle Qi's hand, Cheng Qing, who was supposed to be in the northwest, appeared in the capital when the first emperor died and the new monarch succeeded to the throne, and there was a big problem in this-
Fortunately, looking at Xinjun's appearance, he did not intend to pursue Cheng Qing, nor did he intend to pursue Nanyi Cheng.
Master Cheng Wu weighed a lot and finally made a decision:
"Rong Niang's death, all the murderers have been punished, don't contact anyone in the palace again, just act as if you haven't seen the list, Xiaolang, it's all over here."
The first emperor died.
The eldest prince failed to rebel and died, and the concubine was given death.
The eldest princess Qingdeng Ancient Buddha spent the rest of her life, and the county lord of Roujia lost power and lost Shandong.
All the murderers who indirectly or directly harmed Rong Niang have been duly punished, that is enough, Rong Niang can be blind under Jiuquan, he and his wife Li, no matter which day they close their eyes, they no longer have regrets.
"You have done enough for Rong Niang, you should focus on more important things, the northwest is still unstable, the Great Wei has suffered disasters year after year, and the lives of the common people are difficult, Xiaolang, you are the champion of the sixth yuan and the first, you have to let the people of the world see, reading is useful, not only to be an official and an official Guangzong Yaozu, you are useful to the entire Great Wei!"
Cheng Qing has always felt that although the fifth master is trapped in Nanyi to take care of the affairs of the clan, whether it is his mind or vision, he is only stronger than the sixth master.
If the fifth master entered the office back then, and the sixth master stayed in Nanyi, the fifth master's achievements in officialdom may be higher than that of the sixth master.
Cheng Qing always felt that the fifth master knew some inside information, but the fifth master was unwilling to investigate further, Cheng Rong's death, no matter whether the queen secretly planned or contributed to the trouble, the fifth master didn't want to investigate.
In this matter, the fifth master made a compromise!
I don't know if it's for the family, or if it's because of Meng Huaijin, or if it's because I'm worried about Cheng Qing, or maybe there are ...... reasons for each The fifth master made a final conclusion on Cheng Rong's death, and did not want Cheng Qing to bear any more psychological burden, listening to this meaning, he also hoped that Meng Huaijin could let go of this matter.
Cheng Qing had too many things to say, but they were all blocked in his throat.
After thinking about it, he could only worship Cheng Wu deeply.
"Uncle, you have taught me another lesson, how dare I live up to my uncle's expectations!"
The fifth master Cheng stayed in the capital for half a month, and it was not until after Meng Huaijin's enthronement ceremony that the fifth master set off to return to Nanyi.
The Cheng family is indeed very valued by the new monarch, and those who have no official status like Cheng Wu have been summoned by the new monarch.
No one knows what Master Cheng Wu said in front of Xinjun, when Xinjun was in exile, he was funded by the Cheng family, and Master Cheng Wu regarded Xinjun as a nephew...... Speaking of which, Nanyi Cheng's luck can't be stopped.
After Master Cheng Wu left Beijing, Master Cheng Liu, an old minister who had been the secretary of the Ministry of Industry for several years, finally entered the cabinet.
Cheng Qing stayed in the capital for three months, but there was no trace of Cheng Zhiyuan, and she also felt that Cheng Zhiyuan should be dead.
Meng Huai wanted Cheng Qing to stay in the capital, but Cheng Qing wanted to go back to the northwest.
"Division, Your Majesty, Qin'an County in the northwest, there are still things that the minister can't let go, the minister has some ideas and wants to give it a try in Qin'an County."
Cheng Qing still occasionally slips of the tongue.
Meng Huaijin didn't care at all, he was the emperor and Cheng Qing's senior brother.
As Cheng Qing said, everyone has to make their own choice, when he chooses to be the emperor, when Cheng Qing chooses to blade "Mr. Zhang", they have made a choice for each other, and the relationship between him and Cheng Qing will never change, Cheng Qing is still the little lang who is taught by him alone...... In the current situation, Cheng Qing can only continue to be 'Cheng Xiaolang', he is the emperor and the senior brother who protects Xiaolang.
Cheng Qing gave up the high-ranking officials in the capital and wanted to go back to the northwest to be a small county commander, Meng Huaijin would respect Cheng Qing's choice!
This time, Cheng Qing went to the northwest again, and Liu said that he would follow.
After Meng Huaijin ascended the throne, he no longer withheld the military supplies and reinforcements in the northwest, and the northwest army had support, and under the leadership of Xiao Yunting, the Northern Qi army was forced back all the way, and several northwest cities occupied by the Northern Qi people had been recovered!
Cheng Zhiyuan's plan failed after all, even if this person is still alive, he has to lie dormant again, and he doesn't know how many years before he can come out to make waves - if Meng Huaijin can be a good Mingjun, Cheng Zhiyuan won't be able to seize the opportunity until he dies of old age!
There is no big danger in the northwest, and Cheng Qing is relieved to take the Liu family with him.
Dong Jinqiu got what he wanted and was released as an official, but it was not Zhili, but Shandong, which was not far from Zhili.
He took Cheng Hui and his daughter Niuniu, and even Mrs. Dong went with him.
Cui Yan wanted to go to the northwest with him, Meng Huai was careful not to let people go, in the last few years of the reign of the first emperor, the Great Wei was full of famines, and Meng Huai needed Cui Yan to be in the household department.
Although Cui Yan has little qualifications, he is a person trusted by Meng Huaijin, and other courtiers, Meng Huaijin has to carefully identify them to know which ones can be used and which ones are not.
Meng Huaijin is learning how to be a good emperor.
Until Cheng Qing left Beijing, Luo Jun did not act, and it seems that Luo Jun also made the right choice!
It's okay to do this, it's not in vain that Yu Xian is working hard in the northwest, and he wants to atone for what Luo Jun has done over the years with accumulated military achievements.
……
Palace.
The queen mother, no, the new monarch has ascended the throne, the queen has been promoted to the queen mother, and the virtuous concubine has also become the concubine.
The Queen Mother has been nursing her wound in bed for a long time, and Cheng Zhiyuan's thorn left the Queen Mother with the root of the disease-
Chills, chest tightness, and illness at the slightest exertion.
Concubine Xian felt sorry for the Queen Mother's illness, and the Queen Mother herself thought about it.
"Ah Tong, everything that people have done, God sees it in his eyes, this is God's punishment for this palace."
Mr. Zhang is Cheng Zhiyuan.
Cheng Zhiyuan wanted her to admit that she had harmed Cheng Rong, but the Queen Mother did not admit it.
Concubine Shu thought the same way before she died.
The Queen Mother could not defend herself.
She didn't arrange for Cheng Rong to suffer, she just ignored Cheng Rong's pain, and when she got the news, she didn't prevent the tragedy from happening in time, she hesitated!
Time passed, she was stabbed by Cheng Zhiyuan, injuring her internal organs, according to the diagnosis of the imperial doctor, she would linger on the sickbed for the rest of her life, probably God's retribution for her disregard for human life.
The Queen Mother heard that Cheng Qing rejected the high-ranking official Houlu, and insisted on returning to the bitter cold land in the northwest to be the magistrate, I don't know if Cheng Qing's decision has anything to do with her.
She also knew that Cheng Rong's father, Master Cheng Wu, entered Beijing and met Meng Huaijin alone.
As for what the two of them said, Meng Huaijin didn't tell her, and she didn't know how to ask, she originally thought that everything was settled, and she and Huaijin could get along better, but now that she thinks about it, she is more estranged.
After careful consideration, the Queen Mother asked Meng Huai to inherit an heir for Prince Yuzhang.
For the sake of the stability of Great Wei, even if the Queen Mother herself is extremely disgusted with Xiao Yuzhong, the things that Xiao Yuzhong did still cannot be made public, Meng Huaijin is Xiao Yuzhong's own son in the eyes of outsiders, and it is impossible to drag Xiao Yuzhong out to whip the corpse and criticize it.
Prince Yuzhang's old subordinates should be comforted, and the Queen Mother and Meng Huai carefully discussed:
"The mourning family thinks, why don't you pass the king of Xingyang County to the prince of Yuzhang?"
On it together
