Regardless of whether Lan Ting attaches importance to Li Ji's confession or not, he has to admit that with this betrayal of Shi Liangxing, Lan Ting's original ninety percent chance of winning has risen by one percent, and he is sure that the evidence at hand is enough to prove the crime of perverting the law for good deeds, and Emperor Hongfu, who was originally suspicious of him because of Shi Liangxing's heavy bribery of the eunuchs of the inner court, should confirm his bad deeds, let the suspicions be realized, and no matter how Yuan Ge Lao exculpatiorates, I believe that Shi Liangxing will also be punished for his crimes.
And once Shi Liangxing is convicted, even if his party in Fenzhou has never been severely punished, but the tree is scattered, they naturally don't have to think about hindering Zhao Zhouzun, with Yin Jiyu and the rest of the talented subordinates doing their best to assist, even if Zhao Zhouzun can't do any amazing political achievements in Fenzhou, he can guarantee smooth and smooth, and his performance in the implementation of good deeds is enough for him to be transferred back to Beijing at the end of his term of office and continue to clear the expected progress.
But Yin Jiyu is not worried: "According to the current proposition of governing the country with benevolence, Shi Liangxing should not be sentenced to death for the crime of perverting the law for bribes, not to mention that although Yuan Ge Lao was cut off a big arm, he will never be punished with Shi Liangxing for the same crime, which is not considered to hurt his foundation." He looked at the impeachment recital written by Lan Ting, but he didn't want to think about how to polish it at this time, but the idea in his heart was inevitably offensive, if it wasn't for Lan Ting at this time, even if it was replaced by Zhao Zhouzun, he wouldn't have exported that idea.
Yin Jiyu moved from the desk, sat down on the high side in front of the window, he glanced at the quiet and unmanned window, and deliberately lowered his voice: "Shi Liangxing is both Yuan Ge Lao's protΓ©gΓ© and his right-hand man, once it is damaged, Yuan Ge Lao and the Taishi Mansion will be regarded as a mortal enemy, not to mention that because of the former friendship between Xu Ge Lao and Zhao Gong, Yuan Ge Lao was originally very defensive of the old man and the father and son, the two Ge Lao have been in the situation of fire and water, after this incident, Yuan Ge Lao will inevitably suppress the Taishi Mansion more, don't plan to enter the office, If you can't escape from setting up such a big enemy, why not take advantage of the opportunity...... Cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and never suffer from future troubles! β
Lan Ting frowned and raised his eyes to look at Yin Jiyu: "How to cut the grass and eradicate the roots?" β
"The crime of rebellion will die, and it is enough to punish Yuan Ge Lao!"
But no matter how bold Shi Liangxing is, he doesn't dare to act as a crime of rebellion, Yin Jiyu's implication is to plant dirt and frame him.
But of course, he understands that it is impossible to frame the court members with empty white teeth, and Shi Liangxing and his ministers have never mastered the army, so it is not easy to confirm his crime of conspiracy - now he is not like the first monarch, and he likes to use the set of literary prisons to suppress his ministers, if that is the case, it is easy, and it is not difficult to interpret it as a conspiracy in the letters, and there is no need for other evidence.
Since Emperor Hongfu advocated the rule of benevolence, he had a more cautious attitude towards criminal crimes, especially serious crimes such as treason, and should pay more attention to the conclusive evidence of crimes.
But Yin Jiyu believes that as long as Lan Ting moves, he will be able to come up with a way to sit and commit the crime of good deeds, you must know that although there are not many Wenchen who directly raise troops, it is not uncommon for rebellion to be followed, and the rebellion case of King Heng that only happened at the beginning of his ascension to the throne today, has the party really been investigated from the rebels? It's not that it can't be implicated at all!
Seeing that Lan Ting was silent for a long time, Yin Jiyu also frowned: "If your ambition is not to support the prince, I will not suggest this thing that will not be moral, but since you have decided to take this dangerous road in the future, it is impossible not to involve power, this road is not the best choice for people who are in trouble." β
Of course, it is not a righteous and bright behavior to defile and deceive others, and it is despised by a righteous man and a gentleman, but Yin Jiyu thinks that people who are far away should not be involved in such a sinister thing as seeking to seize the throne at all, since Lan Ting has chosen to wade into this troubled water, he can't be too kind to a woman, and as for the treacherous and insidious people in the power field such as Yuan Ge Lao and Shi Liangxing, they must not be soft-hearted.
"The court has a different opinion from Brother Ren on this matter." Lan Ting also thought about it for a while before saying: "The emperor investigated Shi Liangxing, because he was suspicious that Shi Liangxing was corrupt and disloyal, and the original intention was not to worsen the dispute between the cabinets. Since the emperor ascended the throne, although Dongchang and Jinyiwei have been much more restrained than before, the factory guard has not been abolished, as long as the emperor orders a detailed study, it is not difficult to find out the truth. β
In fact, no courtier is happy to see that outside the Criminal Department and Dali Temple, there are privileged departments that directly obey the emperor's orders and are not restricted by any institution, especially those almost pervasive spies such as Dongchang and Jinyiwei, which make the civil and military officials and the noble family jealous and resistant.
If Lan Ting, for the sake of selfishness, triggers the counterplot of King Heng, which has become a thing of the past, and makes Jinshang suspicious, then it is very likely that the factory guard will be reused to thoroughly investigate the case, which is not conducive to the overall interests of the Chengong group, and it will be found that Shi Liangxing is being defiled...... Lan Ting will definitely trigger the anger of the public and become the target of the public.
The risk is so great that Lan Ting almost doesn't consider it, it is better to be careful with Yuan Ge Lao, at least Lan Ting still has the confidence to deal with Yuan Dang.
"And brother Ren knows why my grandfather gave me a word for the table?"
"The Taishi Gong was already disappointed in the old man, so when your eldest grandson was born, he made up his mind to personally raise and never hand over to the hands of the woman again, the Taishi Gong has high hopes for you, so he named it Ting, the word court has the meaning of the court, it can be said that since you were born, the elder has chosen the road of career economy for you."
Lan Ting continued: "I have no choice, how could my grandfather have a choice back then? In fact, when I was a child, my grandfather encouraged me to read Lao Zhuang's writings, and it can be said that my wish to be a friend originated from my grandfather's influence. β
"The occasion means the difference, which means that your ambition is not actually in the court, and although it backfires, the Taishi Gong still hopes that you can stick to your ambition and don't hope for the original intention." Yin Jiyu sighed: "It's me who is obsessed, only looking at the immediate interests, ignoring the long-term, don't say that you are right, no matter what, you can't behave despicable things, even despicable people." β
He then reminded: "Now that everything in Fenyang has been settled, and you are determined to enter the office as soon as possible and catch up with the township examination in August this year, then you can't delay it any longer, and you should prepare to return to Beijing immediately." β
"Yes, I plan to leave in five days at most."
And Chun Gui had already heard about Lan Ting's decision, and he began to pack up his bags on this day, and when Lan Ting came back in the evening, he mentioned his wish to say goodbye to Mrs. Ji before leaving.
"Mrs. Ji has the grace of protection for Huihui, and she should formally say goodbye before she travels away, even if Huihui is now mourning for her mother-in-law, but she is not going to a banquet party, but in order to comply with etiquette, this is not a difficult matter, I will go and explain it to the lord and Mrs. Lan Ting said again: "Coincidentally, I just asked Brother An Shi a few days ago, and he discussed it with Mrs. Ji again, and he is willing to resign from the post of secretary of the state government and go to the capital with me to find another way." β
Chungui is also very keen: "Don't you hope to help the world brother enter the office?" β
"Although the first emperor had a decree not to allow the sons and nephews of the Sun family to enter the office, and banned the way of the imperial examination, but when the first emperor was in power, how many unjust cases have been overturned, and the forgiveness of the pursuit of grace and forgiveness, Brother An Shige is not completely without the possibility of being pardoned, even if he does not take the road of the imperial examination, but since ancient times, it is not the only way to be an official. Speaking of the Dongxu murder case, if Brother An Shi hadn't had the sense to help me as early as last year, how could I find out the truth so quickly and clear the innocence of the innocent? Brother An Shi has talents, and I am willing to help. β
"That's great!" Chungui smiled and bent his eyebrows: "Although Mrs. Ji said to Brother Shi that it doesn't matter even if she can't enter the office, but over the years, Mrs. Ji has never neglected Brother Shi's studies, Mrs. is a person who does not want to owe favors, only in order to get the job of a scribe for Brother Shi, try her best to ask relatives and friends, it can be seen that she is also looking forward to the opportunity, hoping that Brother Shi can rely on Shi Jin to save the decline of his family, and I am really grateful." β
She smiled heartily as she spoke, and was about to give a serious salute, when she suddenly saw Lan Ting take a step closer to her.
When his gaze moved up, he saw a pair of slightly frowning eyebrows and deep eyes.
"How can a smart and clever person like Huihui not know to thank me for my help on behalf of others, wouldn't he seem to be more like me? Don't do it in the future. β
Seeing that the girl nodded stupidly, followed by a look of remorse, Lan Ting relented, and did not use her husband's power to "intimidate" her, and said another thoughtful thing: "Tomorrow, I will accompany you back to my house again and stay for two days, not only to say goodbye to my uncle, but also to worship the dead of my father-in-law and mother-in-law." β
Seeing that he wasn't really angry, Chungui sighed quietly in his heart, but nodded blankly.
Lan Ting was helpless: "For the sake of others who are almost grateful to me, I have to thank each other with a big gift, how can I change it to my own business and lose consciousness?" β
"Grateful, of course grateful." Chungui "hehe" smiled honestly, and really thanked him.
"No thanks, thanks." Unexpectedly, he was blocked by Lan Ting again, but unexpectedly he was asked for a thank you gift.
Chun Gui said: "When I go home tomorrow, I will cook a hearty meal for you?" β
"Is this a thank you gift, isn't this Huihui's business?" Lan Ting raised an eyebrow.
Chungui frowned: Why is this person so concerned today? I never realized that he still had such a difficult time to please, alas, it is really worrying, what kind of thank you gift should be used? He will inevitably be vulgar and elegant in gold and silver...... Most of my father's treasures in the past were sold, and although he kept a few pieces, he was really reluctant to give them away.
Spring return is deeply difficult.
"Don't rush, think about it, just don't forget about it." Lan Ting forced a smile and turned around and entered the wing.
