Chapter 67: Get the Ahead of the Curve

Duan Jingxunteng's case was raised, "Didn't you say that you would save Meng Xiangtian's life!" ”

Bai Lingchen on the other side still looked lazy, and he didn't look at him when he opened his eyes, "Don't worry, I will find someone to replace him before the day after tomorrow." ”

"He's already a damned man, what's the use of swapping it out again! The crime is conclusive, and the position of Shangshu is about to be handed over to others! ”

Bai Lingchen glanced at the irritable Duan Jingxun funny, "I didn't say that I would protect his official position when I promised to save his life, but now the prince wants to blame me?" ”

"You!"

Duan Jingxun couldn't bear to smash his fist down, and the green tendons on his forehead burst out and said in a low voice, "Then who will collect money for us in the future!" ”

"It's your business to raise money, I don't interfere."

Duan Jingxun was furious when he heard this, and the appearance of Corporal Lixian couldn't hold back anymore, "Don't go too far!" ”

"Is it excessive?" Bai Lingchen's folded legs changed positions, "If I hadn't secretly protected you, would Lord Xun think that Meng Xiangtian would recognize the crime so happily today?" ”

This sentence completely calmed Duan Jingxun, and he frowned.

"It's you!"

The corners of Bai Lingchen's mouth hooked a vague smile, "What Meng Xiangtian committed is a capital crime, and it is nothing to let him bear one more crime, not to mention that I can still save his life, do you think he will not agree?" Once the Imperial City murder case is attributed to Meng Xiangtian, no matter who makes trouble in the future, you will not be able to find out about your lord. ”

The anger in Duan Jingxun's lowered eyes was palpable, "But you also saved Duan Jingyi!" ”

"You don't really think that tricking Tang Meng into buying a house can bring down Duan Jingyi, right?" Bai Lingchen's eyes became sinister, "I helped you ascend to the throne, but you secretly taught Meng Xiangtian to attack Tang Meng, and now I am already very polite in this ending." ”

Duan Jingxun was stunned.

Unexpectedly, Bai Lingchen's conversation with Meng Xiangtian in private was so clear, and the fine cold sweat oozing from his forehead extinguished the anger, replaced by endless fear.

He knew too well the methods of the person in front of him, and he understood his obsession with Tang Meng.

Thinking about it like this, I was lucky not to be killed by him.

"White envoy, this matter ......"

Bai Lingchen raised his hand, his tone was casual and terrifying, "There is no need to explain this time, if there is a next time, I will not give you a chance to explain alive." ”

Duan Jingxun sighed in his heart, "No matter what, this time we have suffered heavy losses and must win back a game, and please ask the white envoy to help me." ”

"What can you do if I transfer Duan Jingyi out of the Imperial City?"

Duan Jingxun's eyes lit up, "You can cut off his arm to prevent him from covering the sky with one hand!" ”

Bai Lingchen stretched his muscles calmly, "Come on, send off guests." ”

Duan Jingxun sat in the carriage and shook all the way, but his brows were getting deeper and deeper.

He can see that Bai Lingchen is indeed only a poison maker, as long as Tang Meng, the rest will not help him, but now Duan Jingyi has already punished Meng Xiangtian, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not attack others, and he still has to be one step ahead of others in the court!

"Stop!"

"What's wrong with the prince?" The little guy hurriedly greeted him, Duan Jingxun lifted the curtain, "You go back and prepare a big gift to send to General Chong's Mansion, and the rest of the people will go to the military department with this king." ”

"Yes!"

Although Duan Jingyi has a very high prestige in the imperial city, after all, he has no foundation after going out to fight for many years, and the only cronies who can be proud of him cannot be stationed in the imperial city.

If you really say which department can be directly related to Duan Jingyi, only the Ministry of War.

But Duan Jingxun is different, he has been immersed in the imperial city for many years, and he was already the second prince in the hearts of the ministers before Duan Jingyi came back.

His connections are naturally much tougher than Duan Jingyi's, not to mention anything else, just say that most of the people in the six parts are his cronies, and even if they don't, no one dares to go against him.

Duan Jingxun planned to cut off Duan Jingyi's retreat in the military department first, and it would be better if he could find any clues from the military department to make a fuss.

Moreover, Lin Meng's wife and brother of Lin Meng, the secretary of the Ministry of War, happened to be serving as a waiter in the household department, and after Meng Xiangtian was given death this time, several waiters in the household department must have stared at this position with fierce eyes, Duan Jingxun didn't believe that Lin Meng was not moved.

Duan Jingxun entered the military department and stayed for two hours before coming out, although Lin Meng was not from his own faction, fortunately, he was not a hard bone, and he naturally did not insist on it if he was tempted a little.

Duan Jingxun walked out of the gate of the military department refreshed, and the little guy who was waiting outside was in a hurry, and when he saw his master hurriedly greeted him, he whispered.

Duan Jingxun was relieved after hearing this, and he also guessed that Jiang Chongji would not accept his gifts.

So he waved his hand and said, "I will ask someone to send it every three days until it is received, and then send a few civilian officials to come over to check the documents of the military department over the years to see if anyone is not in accordance with the rules when commanding the soldiers." ”

The little guy understood, "The slave understands!" ”

On the other side, Jiang Chongji had just sent away the gift-giver when he heard someone behind him open his mouth in dissatisfaction.

"Brother, you just came back, and someone rushed to give gifts, which is too blatantly co-opted."

Jiang Chongji turned around, wearing a bright silver armor against the dazzling halo of the sun, "If you talk like this, you can't marry without thinking carefully." ”

Jiang Muling threw the spear in his hand to his subordinates and jumped into the front hall, "If you don't marry, you won't marry, looking at the imperial city, there is a man who is strong and soft, and I can't look down on ordinary people." ”

"You don't look like a girl yourself, and you still think that people can be both rigid and soft."

"What are you talking about!" Jiang Muling raised his hand and threw over a jade tea bowl, and Jiang Chongji tilted his head slightly to control the tea bowl firmly in the palm of his hand.

He raised his eyebrows, threw the tea bowl on the table with his backhand, and untied his armor by himself, "I didn't let you go to learn calligraphy and painting to learn female red in the days when I was not in the imperial city, this is what you learned?" ”

Jiang Muling flattened her mouth and hugged the jar of melon seeds on the side, "Those official ladies are very hypocritical, and they don't want to go after a few visits." ”

Seeing that Jiang Chongji was about to be angry, she hurriedly added, "But sometimes I will have tea with them, after all, you are not in the capital, there are some things I still have to inquire about for you." ”

Looking at the small little man in front of him, Jiang Chongji snorted, "You? What can you find out? ”

"That's a lot!" Jiang Muling ran to him happily with the jar and took inventory, "The second miss of the Su family is not good, the eldest lady is average but she is too old, and the young lady of the Chen family in the Ministry of Rites is too ugly, Xiangfu!" The most terrible thing is the Prime Minister's Mansion, that Miss Yan is really annoying to get home, you must avoid these brothers. ”

The more Jiang Chongji listened, the more he frowned, "That's what you inquired about?" ”

"Ah, I'm just a brother like you, can you not have a snack for your future sister-in-law."

His eyes were disgusted, "You are still a girl who has not left the cabinet, and you are not ashamed to say this, besides, ......" Jiang Chongji changed into a regular dress at home with an expressionless face, "Besides, Your Majesty once gave me a marriage, and I already have a marriage contract, what sister-in-law are you looking for." ”

"But don't you like that one, I'll find a favorite one for you!"
