Chapter 106: There Must Be Something Going On Here
Prime Minister's Mansion!
Cui Yan only learned about what happened in the south early this morning.
His son Cui Bo, as the general of the southern border guard, actually fled with his wife and children, Cui Yan was questioned by the emperor, and was ridiculed by the Manchu Minister of Civil and Military Affairs, what a shame, Cui Yan returned to the mansion and smashed the treasure jade glass cup he cherished.
The next person has never seen the prime minister get so angry, and they are so frightened that they dare not come out, and they also want to know why the prime minister, who is respected by the world, is so angry?
The prime minister is deeply respected by the emperor, in front of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military ministers have praised the prime minister is a model of the court's humerus minister, at the beginning of this year, the emperor also named the prime minister as the prime minister's father, what a glory, the prime minister in the court under one person above 10,000 people, even the emperor privately said that he trusted the prime minister as he trusted himself.
What could the prime minister, who is prosperous in everything, do to make him so angry? He also smashed his cherished things.
The subordinates lowered their heads, you look at me, I look at you, no one can guess what is wrong with the prime minister.
"Someone!" Cui Yan burst into tears.
The two guards standing outside the door entered the room and bowed neatly: "Prime Minister! ”
"Go, the two of you will take two thousand light horsemen to look all the way to Nanzhen, and find Cui Bo to bring this phase quickly." Cui Yanqi's voice trembled, how could he, Cui Yan, teach such a son, Yu Jun just broke through the defense, he didn't even resist, and fled with his wife and children.
Forget it if you escape, flee to a safe place to reorganize the army to block it, as long as you stay up for two or three days, the capital receives the news, can he, as a father, help him? How could that Wei Lin lead his troops to recover Nanyang Town and Nanlin Pass?
Thinking of Wei Lin, Cui Yan almost ran out of breath to turn his back.
I don't have a clue about the secret letter, and now that Wei Lin has won such a great achievement, Cui Yan's breath in his chest is even difficult to breathe.
I knew that this son was so unbearable, and he really shouldn't have let him take over the generals of the southern realm in the first place.
"Yes!" Two guards led the way.
Cui Yan sat on the master's chair, panting heavily, the emperor's question he didn't care, and he didn't care about the ridicule of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military ministers, he just couldn't understand how his son was in a nest, how could he abandon his armor and flee? With his powerful father behind him, what is he afraid of?
Cui Yan couldn't figure it out, so he couldn't wait to arrest Cui Bo now and ask him on the spot.
The fourth lady was having breakfast, and when she heard that the prime minister was angry in the study this morning because of her son Cui Bo's affairs, how could she care about having breakfast again, so she hurriedly came to the door of the study to ask for guilt.
"Xiangye, the concubine heard that Bo'er's child made Xiangye angry again, Xiangye take care of your body, don't be angry, the concubine is distressed." The fourth lady knelt outside the door and cried so much that the pear blossoms brought rain.
"Slut, you come in for your own appearance!" Cui Yanzheng was angry and couldn't find anyone to scold, so the fourth lady came to ask for the guilt, and the heart was immediately angry at the fourth lady.
Seeing that the prime minister was so angry, the fourth lady was full of horror and trembling and moved to the study step by step.
The prime minister is rarely angry, sometimes the children cause any trouble, the prime minister will also be angry, but angry is angry, it's a big deal to reprimand him, and then settle down.
But today, seeing that the prime minister is really angry, the fourth lady is shocked and frightened, what kind of disaster is this Bo'er? provoked the prime minister to be so angry.
"Xiangye." The fourth lady knelt on the ground and put her head next to the ground, "It's the concubine who didn't teach Bo'er well, Xiangye wants to beat and scold the concubine for him, Xiangye must not be angry, the concubine and Bo'er can't afford it." ”
"You took it for him? I'm afraid that even if I cut off the heads of your mother and son, I can't stand the mistakes made by this evil beast, and I have to add my head. Cui Yan patted his neck angrily.
The fourth lady was so frightened that her face was pale, "Dare to ask Xiangye Bo'er what big mistake he made?" Do you want to involve Xiangye? ”
"He ......" Cui Xiang was so angry that he was stuck, "As a general guarding the town, he abandoned the people in the south and fled, the whole country was shocked, such a big crime, you say, is it that I, the prime minister, also want to wipe my neck to thank the world?" ”
When the fourth lady heard this, her whole body was paralyzed on the ground, and then she didn't believe it: "Although Bo'er is not good, but it is not so unbearable to escape from the battle, Bo'er knows, as long as he saves his life and lasts for three or two days, the prime minister will definitely send troops to rescue him, he has the prime minister's 20,000 cronies around him to protect him, why should Bo'er escape?" ”
What the fourth lady said is also the reason why Cui Yan doesn't understand, Bo'er returned to Beijing to report on his work, and he repeatedly told him in front of the whole family that as long as he was in peace and security in the south for three years, he would transfer him to the capital to take care of the military department, if there was an emergency, let him not be afraid, as long as he lasted for two or three days, his father would definitely send an army to rescue him and help him.
At that time, Boer was full of confidence and said that he would not let him down.
Why? Why did the Yu army flee in panic just after breaking through the southern border Guan Bo'er?
Although Bo'er is not as angry as his two elder brothers, he also has family glory, he has always been obedient and sensible, although there are small mistakes, but he will not do anything that destroys the family's reputation.
There must be something going on here.
Cui Yan was the first to think of Wei Lin.
Isn't this person already stupid? Why did he regain consciousness after an accident in the south? Still regained Nanyang Town and Nanlin Pass in just three days?
It couldn't have been planned by him, could it? E-book house
But even if he planned all this, he wouldn't force Bo'er to flee, what the hell is going on?
"The emperor has arrived!" Just when Cui Yan was puzzled, the subordinates outside the hospital reported loudly.
Cui Yan waved his hand at the fourth lady, and the fourth lady hurriedly retreated from the back door.
Cui Yan greeted the door and knelt down to pick up the driver: "Your Majesty!" ”
The emperor stepped forward three steps and two steps, and helped Cui Yan up, "Father, didn't I say it?" There is no need for this great gift when my father sees me. ”
"I'm ashamed of the emperor." Cui Yan said embarrassedly.
"I'm just worried that you're guilty because of Cui Bo's affair, so I deliberately went out of the palace to see you, at that time, it was all a trivial matter, but I ordered Cui Bo's position as the general of the southern border to be withdrawn, and he was imprisoned for a year or two, and when the limelight passed, I was letting him out, and it would be okay to arrange a civil official position for him, Xiangfu, don't rest assured." The emperor said.
The fourth lady who was listening behind the door heard the emperor's words, and nodded with tears, the emperor is so protective of the prime minister, the prime minister must not blame Bo'er, she is not afraid of the emperor's blame, she is afraid that the prime minister is serious, she will have a son of Bo'er, if Bo'er is held accountable by the prime minister, then what status does she have in this prime minister's mansion.
Cui Yan thanked the emperor and said: "The minister thanked the emperor for his love, and asked the emperor to allow the minister to find out before making plans." ”
If Cui Bo really suffered from Wei Lin's plan, then he Cui Yan would naturally take Wei Lin guilty, if Cui Bo was really unbearable for his investigation, he would naturally return justice to the people in the south, and the foundation that Cui Yan had worked hard for decades would not be destroyed because of a son.
No matter how good the emperor is to him, he does not have the majesty of his own reign in the world.
It's just that he didn't say anything about the desire in his heart, in the eyes of the world, he was just the emperor's most trusted prime minister, and the emperor relied on him for everything.
But he has enough to sit in the prime minister's position.
"Then Father Xiang will take care of it himself." The emperor held Cui Yan's hand and said apologetically: "Father, today I questioned you like that in front of hundreds of civil and military officials in the court, I really had no choice. ”
"I understand." Although Cui Yan coveted the throne, he never thought of hurting the emperor, he just wanted to conform to the people's wishes, and the emperor was tired of dealing with the affairs of the world, so he just gave the throne to him.
"It's good that the prime minister understands, I have already killed the person who didn't know how to go to the court to report it, he should report this matter to the prime minister in private, he actually reported this matter in front of the Manchu Dynasty in the early dynasty, he really deserves to die." The emperor was angry with the enemy.
"The emperor killed him?"
"Ahh
Cui Yan choked in his throat and said with some blame: "The emperor should keep this person, and the minister suspects that Cui Bo was framed by someone." ”
"Who? I killed him. The emperor said in a hurry.
Cui Yan really can't do anything about this emperor, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, don't worry about this matter, it's better to leave it to the minister." ”
"That's good, then I don't care, I'm going to play with Xi'er, the trick she performed for me when she entered the palace yesterday was too funny." The emperor's face was full of excitement and a little impatient.
"Go ahead." Cui Yan said with a loving face.
"Okay." When the emperor saw that Cui Xiang promised to pull his legs, he ran away.
Cui Yan looked at the emperor's back and still looked very playful, he really felt that the same people were not the same as the fate, the royal family was born and was destined to sit in the world, but the heirs of these royal families are all overwhelmed, how can they be qualified to take care of the world? There are capable people in the world who sit on it, and like the emperor, you just need to have fun.
"Alas......" Cui Yan sighed deeply for his dedication to this country.
"Xiangye." The fourth lady came in through the back door, for fear that Xiangye would kill her son, so she knelt down and pleaded: "Xiangye, no matter how big a mistake Bo'er makes, please spare Xiangye." ”
"You don't need it, this matter has to wait for Benxiang to find Bo'er to find out the reason for the matter and then make a decision, if he is really greedy for life and afraid of death, abandon the southern border and flee, Benxiang will not spare him." Cui Yan said angrily when he thought of the useless son.
Even if Wei Lin is framed, no matter how stupid Cui Bo is, he will always have the ability to fight against him, right? His 20,000 elite soldiers can last seven or eight days even against an army of 40,000, so why should he escape?
The fourth lady saw that Xiangye had no trace of affection, and thought that if it really involved Bo'er's life, she would go to the emperor to intercede, but the emperor personally promised Xiangye to protect Bo'er.
Thinking of this, the fourth lady saluted: "Take care of the prime minister, and the concubine will retire." ”
"Hmm." Cui Yan waved his hand, and after the fourth lady went down, Cui Yan fell into deep thought again.
This Wei Lin is really a big scourge, I knew that he was so cunning and used scheming, I should have let Bo'er kill him with a knife, so as not to be ridiculed by the ministers and dragged down by his useless son.
When Cui Yan thought of this, he had to deal with the aftermath again, and his head was big.
Wei Lin regained the lost land, he is a meritorious minister of the Pi State, if he gets rid of him, I am afraid that it will cause the anger of the ministers and people of the Pi State, then all his efforts will not be in vain?
