Chapter 728: Provocation
Ling Fox walked in front of Wu Qianping, and his tall figure shrouded both of them in shadow. Wu Qianping saluted unhurriedly and waited for him to speak.
Mingyi felt like his heart was about to stop. The person in front of him, no matter how he counts, should be regarded as an enemy. Judging from Wu Qianping's political position, neither the Cui family nor the Wei family is a person who makes the fox a fox. Especially Cui's is probably the person who Ling Fox wants to oust the most. Ling Hu Xuan is a Shangshu servant, in charge of the six ministries, and is the chief executive of Shangshu Province, but this official position is not the default prime minister. It's just that he is in charge of Shangshu Province, and he is deeply trusted by the emperor, and the position of prime minister is only a matter of time. Mingyi called him the prime minister in his heart, also because he knew that he would definitely be the prime minister in the future.
Now in the middle of the court, Cui Xuangang has been promoted to the right prime minister, which is also the second time he has served as prime minister, which shows that this Cui family is really a hundred-legged insect that is dead but not stiff. Bai Minzhong, the provincial servant under the door, is the left minister, that is, Bai Minzhong, who offended Zheng Hao, was always impeached, resigned, and appeased by Xuanzong.
If Ling Fox wants to be the prime minister in the name of righteousness, he has to wait for these two to move his ass. On the surface, Bai Minzhong offended the horse, and there was no strong henchman in the court, so his chance of falling off the horse was the strongest. But Mingyi believes that Bai Minzhong sits more steadily, and the change of dynasty is still steady, precisely because he does not form a party, hugs the emperor's thigh, and looks conscientious. He will be able to stay in phase until he runs out of strength.
Cui's is different, Tang Xuanzong uses the family and is jealous of the family. Especially when it comes to his ascension, a family that has never been on his side. From his methods of dealing with Empress Dowager Guo, we know that he is small-minded and holds grudges. The Linghu family is stable, and following him when he is the King of Light, including Wei Ao, has advantages that others can't match. Cui's has never been his person, but the most deep-rooted branch of the old ancestor, killing chickens and monkeys, the most suitable object.
Therefore, the one Ling Fox chose to replace was Cui Xuan, and Wu Qianping was born in the Cui family, and the two of them were hostile by nature.
On the other hand, at the beginning of the present tense, or Linghu Xiang, he was the head of the Linghu family. Even if Ling Fox is his uncle, he still needs to obey him. For the beginning of the time, Wu Qianping is definitely the person he is not used to in this world. Whether he still has feelings for Mingyi or not, that's one thing, the man his fiancΓ©e chose to abandon him is a thorn he can't pull out after all. Linghu family to Wu Qianping, no matter which angle, is to get rid of it quickly.
What's even more troublesome is that the post of Shangshu shooting, because of the absence of Shangshu in the Ministry of Industry, became the top boss of Wu Qianping, a waiter. You can find out the mistake at any time and kill him.
Mingyi's head buzzed. At the beginning of the year, the matter of becoming the head of the family made a subtle change in the whole situation, and she began to be afraid, will she leave any handle on this trip to the Spring Festival? This is still a trivial matter, and after all, it is a private donation, and the public funds of the imperial court have not been used, so it will not cause a big disaster. I'm afraid that the overly huge project behind - the blessed earth, it is good that there are no mistakes, if it can be found that the shoddy work or the materials do not match, etc., it will be implicated in accepting bribes, which is enough to kill Wu Qianping.
She reassured herself to be calm, but she hadn't gone that far yet. What's more, it is still unknown whether he brought his personal enmity back to Linghu's family at the beginning of the time, and whether he said anything to Linghu.
Mingyi's hand was still holding Wu Qianping, but because of nervousness, he accidentally increased his strength. Wu Qianping felt it and quietly shook her hand. For some reason, with just a slight grip, Mingyi's heart immediately settled down, as if he had relied on and had enough confidence.
It's just a moment, and it seems like an hour has passed. Ling Fox opened his mouth: "I don't know what Wu Shilang thinks about this?" β
Wu Qianping said unhurriedly: "The spring good banquet comforts the grace of heaven and soothes the hearts of the people. To educate the merchants in the city, they should put goodness first, be loyal and righteous and light on wealth. To appease the displaced people in the whole city, there is a country to follow, and peace is imminent. This is a temporary and half-day inconvenience, and it has become a good virtue that has endured for many years. As for the temporary waiting outside the city, Master Wei has already made arrangements, and anyone in the correspondence from various places and the official office may have special urgent reasons, and they will be released in advance. And the business and scholars from all over the country have also been widely informed of the intention of today's Spring Banquet, and there has been no chaos. Please rest assured. β
Ming Yi had more admiration for his husband, and his words were neither humble nor arrogant, polite and polite, and even pulled Wei Ao into it. Now he also knows that Ling Fox and Wei Ao have an unknown brotherhood, and he will not be embarrassed in public.
Ling Hu Xuan pondered for a moment and looked at Wu Qianping carefully: "This is reasonable, but Wu Shilang is an official of the Ministry of Industry of Zhongshu Province, how can he interfere in the affairs of Jingzhao Mansion so leisurely?" Is the Ministry of Industry too idle? β
Wu Qianping kept smiling, and said lightly: "The affairs of the Ministry of Industry are within my share, and I should do my best." For the sake of goodness, I don't dare to live behind others, and after completing the affairs of the official office, I will work with my insiders to do my best for the spring good banquet as a citizen of the Heavenly Empire. β
Ming Yi found that he was also pushed out, so Ying Ying smiled and said: "This is what the concubine should do, and it is not enough to worry about it." β
Ling Fox Ribbon ate a soft nail and was speechless for a while. Ming Yi saw that his face was not good, and he was secretly amused. His provocation was too straightforward, and Wu Qianping's answer was watertight. First, the work of my Ministry of Engineering is done, and second, is it wrong for me to use my time and identity as a civilian scholar to do some good deeds?
Wu Qianping did not mention his experience when he was a young man, which was pride, and did not mention the relationship with Wei Ao, in case there was a suspicion of forming a party. No one wants their subordinates to work behind the butt of other department leaders.
It seems that this Lord Linghu is not very good at scheming, no wonder he is not the head of the family, and he wants to be a puppet in front of people.
Ling Fox seemed unwilling, and wanted to grasp the last question and embarrass Wu Qianping.
"Wu Shilang just married Wei Niangzi, why did I just listen to the discussion in the crowd, and there is another Ming Lady? It's really young and romantic! Accepting a concubine so quickly, didn't Lord Wei embarrass you? Ling Huxuan glanced at Mingyi, with disdain, he probably thought that the new lady who let Wu Qianping leave Wei Niangzi must be a country and a city, but he didn't expect that he was not young and looked beautiful.
Wu Qianping raised his eyebrows slightly, he probably didn't expect to shoot adults in a dignified manner, and he was so bored that he gossiped about other people's family affairs, and he also looked down on him in his heart.
Mingyi felt that this Linghu Lord's gaze was more than disdainful. There is a smell of anger and sadness, and this feeling is too strange.
