Chapter 84: The Dilemma of Gonggong Cao

"Cao An, is my question so difficult to answer?"

Emperor Hongwei's body leaned forward slightly, and the tsunami-like feeling of oppression suddenly came to his face.

Gonggong Cao trembled, the defense line in his heart collapsed, and he almost blurted out the truth, but at the moment when the words were about to come out, he suddenly figured out the key.

Wrong!

Since he didn't take the initiative to play at the beginning, it was already a two-hearted thing for the saint, and at this time, no matter whether the saint had real evidence in his hands or not, once he told the truth, the saint would not spare himself!

Only fight for it!

"Slaves and maids are derelict in their duties, please punish the saints!"

Gonggong Cao turned his heart sideways, fell to the ground and cried.

Emperor Hongwei looked at Gonggong Cao expressionlessly, and asked lightly, "What is your dereliction of duty?" ”

Cao Gong said fairly: "Your Majesty, Marquis Jingwu died in the hand of the dark chess, the slave and maid did not notice it in advance, and the Jinyi Wei pursued it alone after discovering the clues, because they were the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, and the slave and maid did not dare to ask, and in the end, there were heavy casualties, and there were ...... And ......"

"What else?"

"There is also the battle of Liuqingshan, Xu Rui did invite the thunder, collapsed the canyon, and broke the river embankment, but the slave didn't know how he did it......"

"Are you sure it's really a thunderbolt?!"

Emperor Hongwei's face finally had an expression, not jealous, but deeply surprised.

Gonggong Cao nodded and said: "It is indeed a thunderbolt, otherwise how can there be the ability to break mountains and move seas?" In addition to the slaves and maids, the generals of the Northern Wuwei can testify, after the war, the valley collapsed, the Minjiang River was diverted, and the corpses of the soldiers of the Southern Dynasty were all over the field, which was extremely miserable! ”

Emperor Hongwei's pupils shrank sharply, but his face had regained calm.

He subconsciously glanced at Wang Shun, Wang Shun bent over and nodded.

Gonggong Cao panicked in his heart, he told the truth about the battle of Liuqing Mountain, neither exaggerating nor concealing it, this matter is too strange, too big, and he can't hide it if he wants to, but I don't know what Emperor Hongwei's attitude towards Xu Rui, who has the ability to move mountains and reclaim the sea.

After all, the emperor's mental technique, Xu Rui's ability in this battle has exceeded the control of the emperor's ability, and no emperor will rest assured that there is a land immortal who can turn the clouds and rain by his side.

"Cao An, what do you think of Xu Rui?"

Sure enough, Cao Gongcheng was thinking wildly, and the emperor had already opened his mouth to ask, his voice was deep, and he couldn't hear joy or anger.

Gonggong Cao hurriedly said: "This son is very talented, not to mention all kinds of miracles on him, that is, the military strategy commands, and there are few people in the world who can reach it!" ”

"Oh? So, should I reuse it for him? ”

Emperor Hongwei narrowed his eyes and said playfully.

Gonggong Cao lay on the ground and didn't dare to raise his head, he couldn't see the emperor's expression, according to his original intention, he could beat the snake and stick at this time, and strive for a good background for Xu Rui, but Xu Rui had warned him before not to talk nonsense about this matter.

"Your Majesty, although Xu Rui is talented, he often acts unexpectedly, and he is an out-and-out double-edged sword......"

Gonggong Cao said tremblingly.

Emperor Hongwei sneered and said, "I heard that you were very close to Xu Rui during the Battle of Jingyang, and even tried to adopt his strategy three times and twice, why didn't you recommend him to me at this time?" ”

Gonggong Cao said in a panic: "Your Majesty, the slave and maid do not understand military strategy, and in order to achieve results, they must use their talents, but the slave and maid only discuss official affairs with him, and have no personal friendship, let alone dare to point fingers in this matter, please Your Majesty to be clear." ”

Emperor Hongwei looked at Gonggong Cao expressionlessly, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, but for some reason, that murderous intent only flashed away and disappeared again.

Gonggong Cao didn't know that he had already walked around the ghost gate, but he was uneasy in his heart, and he fell to the ground and didn't dare to speak.

The silence in the south study was terrifying, Gonggong Cao knelt for a long time and did not move, and finally couldn't stand this torture, plucked up the courage to raise his eyelids, but saw that the table was empty behind it, and the emperor and Wang Shun didn't know when they had left.

"This ......"

Father-in-law Cao didn't leave, nor did he stay, when he was stunned, a person suddenly came out from behind the screen, it was Wang Shun who went and returned.

"The Holy Lord's edict, Cao An has meritorious service in supervising the army, and he has entered the imperial horse prison as a commander and eunuch, and has jurisdiction over the imperial property, Qin this!"

Wang Shun said with a dead face without a trace of emotion.

Gonggong Cao was startled and bowed down again.

"Slave...... The slave and maid are grateful......"

Wang Shun glanced at him, did not speak, turned around and walked behind the screen.

"Old Ancestor, Old Ancestor!"

Seeing that Wang Shun was leaving, Gonggong Cao took a few steps on his knees, hugged his calf, and begged: "Ancestor, why did you kick the slave out of the celebrant supervisor, don't you want the slave and maid?" ”

Wang Shun stopped, sighed and said, "This is the will of the Holy Lord......"

Saying that, he hesitated slightly, frowned, and said, "Cao An, isn't it your wish to be a superintendent?" You are at odds with Hu Miao, and you have no chance of staying in the celebrant supervisor, so it's better to find another way......"

After speaking, he shook his head, gently broke free of Gonggong Cao's hands, and walked behind the screen.

At this time, Wang Shun's heart was also fluctuating, greedy for life and afraid of death, he had something to hide, the emperor had 10,000 reasons to kill Cao An, and it seemed that he was also ready to do so, but why did he change his mind in the end?

What is this thoughtful majesty thinking?

Also, the emperor just glanced at Wang Shun deeply, and then asked him to look at the arrangement, it was indeed his own decision to kick Cao An to the imperial horse prison, but is this move right?

All the anomalies are in Xu Rui's body, this kid has no official body and is far away from the court, but the impact on the court situation has been so great, even more than the prince......

The more Wang Shun thought about it, the more frightened he became, and his mind turned over and over again, thinking about the future.

Gonggong Cao didn't know how he walked out of the south study, until the sunset shone on him, he was still a little confused.

The 12 eunuchs of the inner court, the celebrant supervisor is the absolute core of power, supervising all etiquette and criminal names in the imperial city, controlling the East Factory, managing errands and listening to various services, known as the "first agency".

The Imperial Horse Supervisor is second only to the Celebrant Supervisor, in charge of the forbidden army, the imperial property, horse breeding, and the supervision of the army, and more than half of all the prison troops of the Great Wei Dynasty come from the Imperial Horse Supervisor, which is also an extremely important yamen.

This time, he was promoted to the rank of the Imperial Horse Supervisor and Eunuch of the Fourth Rank, which is regarded as the third person of the Imperial Horse Eunuch, and he has truly entered the ranks of "eunuchs" (senior eunuchs).

But promotion is not necessarily a good thing.

Wang Shun is old and has a transcendent status, and he has already delegated the power in his hands, and the celebrant is actually taken care of by the eunuch Hu Miao.

Hu Miao is narrow-minded, venomous and vengeful, and the eunuch Wang De, who is in charge of the palm seal of the imperial horse supervisor, is on the same path, and over time, the celebrant and the imperial horse eunuch have formed two eunuch groups to fight each other, and the only one who can control everyone is the "old ancestor" Wang Shun.

Although he is also at odds with Hu Miao, he is the person who is the master of ceremonies after all, and this time he was kicked to the imperial horse prison, like a needle inserted into the enemy camp, Wang Deshun will regard himself as a thorn in the side, and Hu Miao will also see himself as a traitor, completely a rat in the bellows, angry at both ends.

What's more, although he has the title of a commander and eunuch, his authority is to manage the imperial property, not to mention that he has no real power, and he still occupies a fat shortage, just like sitting on a mountain of gold but unarmed, and it is strange that others don't want to try to kill themselves!

The more Gonggong Cao thought about it, the more bitter he became, and before he knew it, he walked to the palace gate.

"Yo, isn't this the new Admiral Eunuch?"

Just thinking about it, several eunuchs came up to him, one of whom was Liu Hongchun, the eunuch of Dongchang, Hu Miao's sworn friend.

"I've seen Grandpa Liu......"

Gonggong Cao hurriedly bowed down, the news in the palace spread quickly, and as soon as he came out of the south study, everyone knew about his change of position.

"Bold! How can you talk to the Admiral, beware of the forbidden army of the Imperial Horse Prison slapping your mouth! ”

"Yes, yes, the little one forgot that this time is different from the past, people are now big celebrities in front of the saint and the ancestors, and when they see Gonggong Cao in the future, they will have to bow three times and knock nine times."

Several eunuchs sneered and passed by him, but Liu Hongchun, the governor of Dongchang, didn't look at him from beginning to end, and his face was terrifyingly cold.

The worst is already on the horizon, and that's just the tip of the iceberg, and it's only going to get worse in the future.

Father-in-law Cao's face was pale, and his heart was cold.

As soon as he turned around, he saw a teenage eunuch squatting in the corner and wiping away tears alone, the little eunuch was none other than his godson Ma Chun.

"What's going on?"

Father-in-law Cao walked up to Ma Chun and asked with a dark face.

"I didn't ...... It's okay......"

Ma Chun touched his tears and shook his head in horror.

Father-in-law Cao was immediately furious: "Say, the godfather is not dead yet, what's the matter, the godfather is in charge of you!" ”

"Godfather!"

Ma Chun seemed to be unable to hold back any longer, his legs bent and knelt down, hugging his thighs and crying: "Godfather, they asked me to pour the night pot!" ”

"What?!"

Gonggong Cao was even more angry: "Our family only returned to the palace today, isn't this clearly going to give our family a dismissal?" Who is it? Who dares to lie to me like that?! ”

"Godfather, it's Gonggong Hu, since you left, he often went to the ancestor to say bad things about you, I heard that ...... I heard that you went to the Imperial Horse Prison this time, and they even intensified it, saying that they would ...... you sooner or later ...... you"

"What's wrong with our family?"

"I said that sooner or later I would stab you, a traitor, and throw it into the moat!"

"Hu Miao, this bastard, our family can't spare him!"

Gonggong Cao shouted angrily, only to feel that the fire was attacking, and the sky was spinning for a while.

"Godfather, godfather!"

Ma Chun hurriedly supported Cao's father-in-law and persuaded: "Godfather, don't worry, my son is used to being wronged, isn't it just a night pot, my son can stand it, they are now arrogant, you must not be impulsive." ”

Gonggong Cao stood firm against the wall, took a few deep breaths, and finally forcibly suppressed his anger.

Ma Chun is right, now is a difficult time, and you must not be rash!

He frowned and patted Ma Chun: "First wronged you for a few days, and when the godfather has gained a firm foothold in the Imperial Horse Prison, he will bring you over." ”

"The son knows, and the son is waiting for his godfather."

Ma Chun wiped away his tears, forcibly squeezed out a smile, and nodded again and again.

Gonggong Cao looked at his aggrieved appearance, felt sad in his heart, sighed, and slowly walked outside the palace gate.

"Godfather, where are you going?"

Ma Chun asked.

Father-in-law Cao waved his hand and said, "The ancestor gave our family a few days off, and our family will go to the house to have a look." ”

Da Wei is not too strict with the Tai Supervision, and the eunuchs with a little strength all have houses outside the palace, which is not a forbidden thing.

Gonggong Cao couldn't stay in the palace, so he wanted to think of a way in the house, there are not many people who can save his life at the moment, and he can only think of Xu Rui, but he didn't expect to ask for him so soon, this kid is lazy and fine, and he doesn't know if he is willing to wade into this troubled water.

Just when Gonggong Cao was worried, two holy decrees had already stepped out of the palace gate, and after receiving these two holy decrees, the officialdom of Great Wei was in an uproar.
