Chapter 47: Digging Your Own Grave
Gong Xiangling frowned, how could he not know what Zhao Yu's fold was written, and he let himself read it before handing it over in the morning.
But this must not be said.
Gong Xiangling picked up the fold, pretended to be serious and read it again, and then looked at Gong Yichen with an innocent face: "The old minister thinks that Lord Zhao is sincere, what he said is right." ”
"Oh, can you tell me about it, where is it?"
Gong Xiangling suddenly came to the spirit.
As an army guarding the capital, the Gyeonggi Guards were supposed to protect the safety of the Jiang family, but they were negligent in their duties, which led to this tragedy.
In order to reassure the ministers of the DPRK and China, shouldn't Gyeonggi Wei be severely punished to correct the people's hearts? ”
Gong Yichen nodded: "Uncle Huang's words are true, but ......"
He glanced at Gong Xiangling, but showed a look that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, "Are you sure that the responsibility for guarding the capital lies with the Gyeonggi Guard?" If I'm not mistaken, the responsibility of the Gyeonggi Guard is nothing more than to protect the members of the royal family, and the responsibility for protecting the capital should lie with the Yulin Army, right? ”
Gong Xiangling was stunned for a moment.
I have to say that because the Yulin Army has always been jointly controlled by him and Gong Yichen, he doesn't have that awareness at all, and he doesn't know much about the rights and responsibilities of the Yulin Army.
However, Gyeonggi Wei was relatively active in front of him, causing him to always feel that it was the responsibility of Gyeonggi Wei to protect the ministers of Gyeonggi Guard.
But now......
"Since Uncle Huang has no intention of taking care of the Yulin Army, then I will take back control of the Yulin Army, and then I will also issue an edict to reassure the people."
When Gong Xiangling went out, the whole person was blindfolded, and the control of the Yulin Army was taken away by the little emperor just like this?
He suddenly reacted, even if Yu Linjun made a mistake, what did it have to do with him?
Anyway, it won't take away his talisman!
Thinking of this, Gong Xiangling felt a hundred claws scratching his heart.
Fortunately, just now he told the emperor that he didn't bring his tiger talisman with him, and since he didn't hand it over on the spot, there must be a chance to turn around.
Thinking of this, Gong Xiangling felt that his depressed mood had lightened a little, and strode towards the palace.
In the palace, Gong Yichen looked at Yu Wenhao, who had not spoken, and asked, "Do you think that old horseman will willingly hand over the tiger talisman?" ”
Yu Wenhao shook his head: "The prince didn't realize the importance of the Yulin Army before, and now he should reconsider this matter." ”
Gong Yichen shook his head helplessly.
He, the imperial uncle, is really interesting, thinking about how to win over the ministers of the court, but he didn't expect that the emperor was generous and benevolent to him, and he had already given him enough power to protect himself.
"But this Yulin Army, I must take it back. The military power to guard the capital on the left and right cannot fall into the hands of Gong Xiangling. "Gong Yichen has wanted to take back the Yulin Army Tiger Talisman of Gong Xiangling for a long time, and the life-saving things are in the hands of others, just like a tiger on the side, which is really difficult to sleep.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, it's just a matter of time." Yu Wenhao saluted Gong Yichen.
It is indeed a matter of time, no matter what Gong Xiangling does, and how he can escape from the mouth of Youyou.
After Yu Wenhao retired, he went directly back to the general's mansion.
Gong Xiangling can be said to be eyeing the military power of the General's Mansion, and even arranged for eyeliner to enter the General's Mansion in his early years.
But after his drastic reforms, the General's Mansion has now become an airtight iron bucket.
"General, Chen Liang is back."
Yu Wenhao stood up very excitedly, and said a little anxiously: "Let him come in!" ”
Soon, a young man with a square face came in, with a restrained and calm temperament, and when he saw Yu Wenhao, he knelt down: "General, my subordinates are worthy of their mission." ”
"Say!"
"In the past few years, Gong Xiangling has been handing over the Yulin Army to his henchman Qu Ze to take care of, but that Qu Ze is obviously ashamed of Gong Xiangling's trust, and the Yulin Army has been taken care of by him." Chen Liang took out a booklet from his arms, "This is the evidence of Qu Ze's crimes in the past few years, the evidence is conclusive, and the human and material evidence has been protected by his subordinates." ”
"Well done." Yu Wenhao was overjoyed.
Chen Liang grew up with him since he was a child, and although the two are called master and servant, they are actually a little closer than brothers.
If you say that Yu Wenhao is the most trusted person in this world, if Chen Liang is ranked second, no one dares to rank first.
"You will enter the palace with me now, it is estimated that Gong Xiangling will also enter the palace."
The two of them packed their bags and headed for the palace.
Yu Wenhao has privileges in the palace, and he doesn't need to pass it all the way, and he goes directly to the door of the imperial study. As soon as she wanted to speak, she saw that the little eunuch who served Gong Yichen made a silent gesture to her.
Yu Wenhao calmed down, his ears were amazing, and he immediately heard that Gong Xiangling was already inside.
"Your Majesty, this incident is indeed the fault of the minister, which led to this situation that no one wants to see, but in recent years, the minister has no credit for the Yulin Army and has worked hard, if the emperor takes back the tiger talisman of the general, how will the court and the central government view the minister, and how will the government and the opposition look at the minister. Rather than this, it is better for the old minister to die than to be blamed by everyone. ”
Yu Wenhao had also thought that Gong Xiangling might be forced to die. But for a person like him, if he says he can't die, he is deceiving people.
There was silence in the imperial study for a while, only Gong Xiangling had some heavy breathing, and he seemed very excited.
Chen Liang glanced at Yu Wenhao, meaning whether to go in or not, and now it seems that Gong Yichen was obviously forced by Gong Xiangling.
Yu Wenhao shook his head, he still wanted to hear what Gong Yichen meant.
If Gong Yichen is willing to wait any longer, then it is not interesting for him to go in now.
After a while, Gong Yichen spoke: "Uncle Huang, did you bring your tiger talisman?" ”
Gong Xiangling's voice was even more excited: "Your Majesty, how can you say that the old minister also watched you grow up, do you want to watch the old minister lose his old age?" ”
Gong Yichen stepped forward to help Gong Xiangling up, and did not answer Gong Xiangling's words, but just said loudly: "If General Yuwen is outside, come in." ”
Yu Wenhao can't be seen from the location of Gong Xiangling, but Yu Wenhao's faint figure can be seen from the position where Gong Yichen is standing.
He knew that Yu Wenhao's entry into the palace this time must have made a breakthrough.
As the door opened, Yu Wenhao and Chen Liang walked in one after the other.
Yu Wenhao glanced at Gong Xiangling, who was helped to the chair by Gong Yichen, and saluted Gong Yichen and Gong Xiangling respectively, before saying: "Lord, if something happened to the Jiang family, the minister asked people to check on Yulin Jun." The prince and noble people are busy, and I am afraid that I don't know the current situation of the Yulin Army. ”
As he spoke, he handed over the things that Chen Liang had collected to Gong Yichen.
Gong Yichen glanced at the ten lines, sneered, threw the booklet directly on Gong Xiangling, and said coldly: "Uncle Huang, look at your people!" ”
