Chapter 320: In the palm of your hand
Shao Huaigu is really your person. Ouyang Kun suddenly realized, and his heart was also affirmed, but now he knew that it was useless, since Xiao Mohan dared to bring it up, he could make him helpless.
"Don't you want me to leave the capital? As long as you let Shao Huaigu become the right minister, I will leave, if you don't do it, I will stay in Beijing and fight with you to the end, you know me, which is more important, you should know in your heart. ”
Xiao Mohan had nothing to fear, he knew that he couldn't stay in the capital for a long time, but Ouyang Kun was ambitious, as soon as he left, Ouyang Kun would have no one to restrain him, so he had to take the opportunity to support Shao Huaigu.
And the emperor has long suspected that Shao Huaigu has a great relationship with him, if he comes to open his mouth about this matter, the emperor will definitely be even more suspicious, and will never trust Shao Huaigu, but Ouyang Kun will be different.
Ouyang Kun is the left minister, if the position of the right minister has been hanging, he is the highest official in the court, but if there is a right minister, then someone can be on an equal footing with him, so looking at the entire government and the opposition, he should be the last person who wants someone to be the right minister.
Therefore, if Ouyang Kun opened his mouth to the emperor, the emperor would be surprised, he would not be able to guess Ouyang Kun's intentions, and he would no longer associate Shao Huaigu with Xiao Mohan, but would pay more attention to Ouyang Kun's movements, so that Shao Huaigu could not only take advantage of it, but also make Ouyang Kun walk on thin ice.
"You are afraid that the emperor will be suspicious, so you don't go, let me go and talk to the emperor, the emperor hates the courtiers colluding with each other the most, if I open my mouth, the emperor will definitely suspect me, and then you will be able to get out of the way, Xiao Mohan, your abacus is really fine."
Ouyang Kun has been up and down in officialdom for many years, so he can naturally see Xiao Mohan's intentions, if he didn't even have this little brain, I'm afraid he would have been swallowed alive by life, and he would not have sat in the position of left minister.
"So what? You don't have a choice. ”
Xiao Mo laughed coldly, his thin lips were pursed into a long line, his chin was tight, his facial features were atmospheric and hard, and the undercurrents in his deep eyes were surging, and every word was full of oppression.
He was right, Ouyang Kun really had no choice, if he continued to stay in Beijing, to Ouyang Kun, he would be a fierce tiger, and he would bite Ouyang Kun's throat at any time, so Ouyang Kun would not take this risk.
"Even if I promise you that I go to the emperor to make a statement, the emperor may not listen to me, so whether this matter can be done or not is completely up to the emperor, not me."
Ouyang Kun was a little shaken, no matter what, he was aware of current affairs, as long as he could invite Xiao Mohan, the plague god, to leave, even if he supported an enemy to take the position, it was nothing, he was afraid of it, he was self-defeating, and finally caught up with himself.
"I naturally understand this, even if you go to the emperor to make suggestions, I'll do the rest, haven't you always been the best at speaking? That's exactly what you want. ”
Xiao Mohan didn't care, what Ouyang Kun could think of, he could naturally think of, so he didn't pay attention to it at all.
"Okay, I promise you, but you can't reveal half a word of my secret, and in the same way, I won't divulge any of your secrets, you and I will take care of the people under our hands."
Ouyang Kun still agreed, although he was unwilling, he was tactful and knew how to protect himself.
"This is natural, but you remember, you must go all out in this matter, Shao Huaigu will not be on the right side for a day, and I will not leave for a day."
Xiao Mo reminded him coldly, his bones were full of arrogance and domineering, his eyes were burning, and his eyebrows were full of cold arrogance, making people dare not approach easily.
Ouyang Kun was so angry by Xiao Mo that he couldn't speak, he just nodded heavily, and it seemed that he had acquiesced.
"As for you, if you don't want to be tortured by this poison all the time, when I leave Beijing, you'd better leave Beijing with me."
Xiao Mohan turned his head and glanced at Yueji coldly, every word was loud, and his eyes were full of contempt.
Yueji lowered her eyes, clenched her fists with both hands, but she was helpless, she had fought with Xiao Mohan so many times, and none of her could gain the upper hand, almost every time she thought she was going to win, but in the end it was just a big dream, and the initiative was always in Xiao Mohan's hands.
Xiao Mohan gave Yufeng a look, and Yufeng and the others took back the weapons in their hands at the same time, and Ouyang Kun also let his dead soldiers retreat, and the forest finally quieted down.
Xiao Mohan and Ouyang Kun left the forest one after the other, and returned to the General's Mansion, Qian Qianqian had already been rescued by Wu Shun, she was sealed by the silver needle just now, she couldn't move, and now Wu Shun took off the silver needle for her, she eased down for a while, and her body was much more comfortable.
"Why hasn't General Xiao come back yet? Something should happen. ”
Qian Qianqian looked at the door, seeing that the hour was indeed not early, there had been no movement outside, and she couldn't help but feel anxious.
"No, the general's plan is seamless, and it can only be Ouyang Kun and Yueji who have an accident."
Wu Shun accompanied Qian Qianqian, and said very surely, he had been guarding the General's Mansion in the capital for many years, and he admired Xiao Mohan very much, otherwise he would not have obviously had a martial art, but he did such a trivial job in this General's Mansion.
Qian Qianqian lowered her eyes slightly, her long and thick eyelashes blocked the emotions under her eyes, although she was anxious, but she was not too out of shape, in her several looks, finally under the dark night, a familiar figure came.
"Xiao Mohan." Qian Qianqian suddenly raised her eyebrows, her red lips opened slightly, and she was so happy that she didn't know what to say, so she only called Xiao Mohan lightly.
"I'm back." Xiao Mohan lifted his thin lips lightly, raised his hand and touched Qian Qianqian's head, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his tone was calm, which made people feel at ease for no reason.
Seeing this, Wu Shun walked away with interest, although Xue Yi came back, she didn't follow, knowing that Qian Qianqian had waited for Xiao Mohan for most of the night, and there must have been a lot of thoughtful things to say at this time, so she had better honestly find a place to stay.
"It's windy outside, go in and talk."
Xiao Mohan took off the robe on his body and draped it on Qian Qianqian's body, although he returned from the dust, but the robe was not stained with dust, just like his temperament, he was always noble and dusty.
"How's it going?" Qian Qianqian couldn't wait to ask, although Xiao Mohan was in a good mood, and things should be nine out of ten, she still wanted to hear Xiao Mohan speak in person.
"As expected, Ouyang Kun and Yueji were defeated." Xiao Mohan poured himself a cup of tea, raised his head and took a sip, his movements were very casual, as if this was his own chamber.
"That's good." Qian Qianqian breathed a sigh of relief, sat in front of Xiao Mohan, and put her hands on the table casually, but was firmly wrapped in Xiao Mohan's hands.
"Why are your hands so cold? Wu Shun won't add you any clothes. ”
Xiao Mohan's face sank, he didn't have a good air, his face was a little angry, after Xue Yi left tonight, he specially ordered Wu Shun to protect Qian Qianqian, it seems that Wu Shun is ineffective.
"Steward Wu hasn't touched my hands, how do you know if my hands are cold? So how can he know to add clothes to me? ”
Qian Qianqian frowned lightly and said this deliberately, knowing that Xiao Mohan was deliberately making Wu Shun angry, but she didn't give Xiao Mohan a step.
"Also, men and women don't kiss, and they don't dare to touch the general's wife if they borrow Wu Shun's ten guts."
Xiao Mohan chuckled, his expression was subtle, his burning eyes swirled around Qian Qianqian's face, and his every move was indescribably gentle, and under the dim candlelight, it looked ambiguous.
"Okay, don't talk about this yet, you let Ouyang Kun go to the emperor to make a statement and support Shao Huaigu to become the right minister, aren't you afraid of letting Shao Huaigu make the emperor suspicious?"
Qian Qianqian paused, and immediately changed the conversation, she was afraid that if Xiao Mohan continued, she would talk more and more, there was no one here, she didn't want any accidents to happen.
"The emperor asked me to investigate in secret, who is colluding with the central state, the most suspicious person is Ouyang Kun, and the emperor has always suspected that Shao Huaigu is close to me, if Ouyang Kun is allowed to speak, the emperor will indeed doubt whether there is any relationship between Shao Huaigu and Ouyang Kun, so if it is not as I expected, the emperor will definitely summon me to the palace to discuss this matter."
Xiao Mohan has lived with the emperor since he was a child, so he is very clear about the emperor's personality, although the emperor is wary of him, he still depends on him for many things, so once Ouyang Kun and Shao Huaigu have something abnormal, the emperor will trust Xiao Mohan.
"So you can take this opportunity to win the emperor's trust, give advice to the emperor, and finally borrow Ouyang Kun's hand to push Shao Huaigu to the position of right minister?"
Qian Qianqian pondered in her heart, after staying in the capital for so long, she was no longer the woman who didn't know anything about the situation in the capital before, but she had a ravine in her heart and a country in her head.
"Yes, by the way, I also resigned to the emperor and returned to Lianzhou." Xiao Mohan nodded slightly, without hiding it at all, he has always acted frankly, to be precise, he doesn't bother to pretend at all.
"But the collusion between the DPRK and the central government has not been clarified, will the emperor let you go?"
Qian Qianqian was a little puzzled, although it was really meaningless for Xiao Mohan to stay in Beijing, but if Xiao Mohan left, the things that the central country had done would be completely shelved, and the emperor might not be able to let go of that heart.
"Someone is more anxious than me about this matter, and Ouyang Kun also knows that the emperor is suspicious of him, so he will definitely prove in front of the emperor that he has nothing to do with the central country, and I can't demolish him at this time, so it is estimated that I don't need to speak, and the emperor will ask me to stop monitoring Ouyang Kun."
Xiao Mohan is completely aware of Ouyang Kun's methods, in front of the emperor, Ouyang Kun must be clever and eloquent, in order to win the emperor's trust, he can do anything, so when he clears his suspicions, the emperor will definitely not make any more extraneous branches.
"You know it, it seems that all this is under your control, so I have nothing to worry about."
Qian Qianqian breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly felt that all her worries were superfluous, with Xiao Mohan's wisdom, she could naturally arrange everything in an orderly manner, if she talked too much, maybe she would make trouble for Xiao Mohan.
"My general's wife only needs to eat and sleep well every day, and be comfortable and happy, no matter what happens, I will be in front of me, even if the sky falls, I will protect you in my arms and not let it hit you."
Xiao Mohan lightly hooked his thin lips, his expression was resolute, his voice was low and steady, with a unique magnetism, which made people reluctant to let go when they heard it.
