Chapter 213: Give you a little face
That night, under a tree in the east of the city, Qiu Peng was sitting in danger, closing his eyes and recuperating, and there was a golden chessboard on the stone platform in front of him.
"Da Da Da Da;"
The sound of the carriage came from far and near, followed by a team of old servants, the carriage stopped not far from Qiu Peng, the old servant who drove slowly put a stool at the exit of the frame, and an old man walked down with a smile, and sat opposite Qiu Peng with a serious attitude.
Under the haze of the trees, Pang Yuan saw the chessboard, glanced at Qiu Peng unexpectedly, learned Qiu Peng to close his eyes, motionless, but showed a thoughtful look, a group of old servants stood quietly aside, did not move, just watched, no one knew what the two were thinking.
"It seems that today's chess is difficult to lose, since you bother, why bother;"
I don't know how long it took, Qiu Peng slowly opened his eyes, stretched out his hand and stroked, the chessboard disappeared, he didn't look at Pang Yuan opposite, he slowly got up and walked out.
"Do you still want to continue to sit idly by, can you be safe under the nest?" Pang Yuan still couldn't help but ask.
Qiu Peng just walked a few steps, stopped, and turned around: "What news do you know? It's not as serious as you think;"
Pang Yuan said slowly: "Luckily, I have also reached this level, I can live for a few more years, many things, different statuses, and different understandings;"
Qiu Peng shook his head with a smile and said: "After all, you have just entered this field, and you still know too little, what you see is bad, not necessarily bad, what you think is good, it may also be that you admit that you are wrong, but since you, an old guy, have taken the initiative to come to me, I can't help but give you a little face, so let's do it, that kid, can't die;"
Pang Yuan was silent, looked at Qiu Peng, who was gradually moving away, pondered for a long time, and finally just sighed deeply, and then also walked into the carriage and disappeared into the night.
The night did not calm down the atmosphere of the entire imperial capital, but became more and more restless.
I don't know who passed on Lu Ling's matter, and the details were completely described clearly and clearly, and for a while, under the deliberate promotion of others, Lu Ling's name was in the limelight for a while, and he was vaguely about to be as famous as someone like Lin Jun.
And the official treatment of him has also attracted more and more attention from the younger generation, which has exceeded the expectations of many people, and it seems that there is not only a pair of giant hands behind it to promote the spread of this matter, but the thing is rumored to be like this, and the most unhappy is, of course, the left minister's side.
Under normal circumstances, the court meeting of the Ziyang Empire is held every five days, but recently it has been held frequently, so the next day, countless excerpts flew into the inner palace like snowflakes, and were screened and sent to the emperor.
Most of them are asking for Lu Ling's innocence, at this time, this is not Lu Ling's matter alone, but the official and private affairs of the empire, and the two ministers are unable to make any decisions.
Originally, Lin Hai and the others wanted to continue to take the initiative, but what else could he say in this situation, he was the left minister, and he was above 10,000 people in the entire empire, but he didn't dare to go against the people of the entire empire.
Therefore, he was even more angry: "Bastard, with Pang Yuan's old fox, it is impossible for this to break through our control, who else wants to go against me?"
In the left prime minister's mansion, Lin Hai thundered and was furious, and the entire attic shook with his anger, and the people under him were also talking to each other.
"Your Excellency, this son must die, otherwise, our forces are already weaker than Pang Yuan's gang, if we lose again this time, it is estimated that they will gain more inches in the future, and the status of the Prime Minister will be worrying at that time;"
"Shouldn't it be the promoter of the old man's family, otherwise there are still a few people in the entire empire who have the ability to pass on these news under our layers of guardianship?"
"Alright;" Lin Hai interrupted everyone with a word.
Then he said: "If you want to say that this son is also a genius, it's a pity, if you want to blame him, it's bad luck to blame, but he was involved in this whirlpool, and he can only try his best to make him disappear reasonably;"
......
The power of the prime minister of a country is so great, it didn't take long for many generals of the empire's east, west, north, south and north border armies, as well as many of his supporters in various counties, to write letters to support Lu Ling, what to execute Lu Ling, and the words to boost the country's prestige were endless.
And this time, not only those military people participated, but some areas even came up with some people's petitions, which were nothing more than expressing a problem.
"If you don't get rid of this, it's not enough to shock the prestige of the country, but if you pay more attention to it, you will find that although there are many people who meddle, most of them have no weight, it's just a move that people want to do;"
......
The sea of clouds is like a huge wave rolling in the sky, several giants are moving forward side by side, the three big characters on the airship are particularly eye-catching, each full twenty or thirty meters wide, but compared to the huge airship, it is still small and pitiful, and those three words are "Wanbaolou~"
In a small private room inside the airship, a white-bearded old man touched the few remaining whiskers, and was looking at the two letters in front of him and pondering, one of which was directly passed to him by the upper floors of their Wanbao Building.
As for the other one, it was the information that the people around him had just found, talking about the current situation of the Ziyang Empire, as well as the things that have been happening recently, which have attracted a lot of attention, to be honest, if no one mentions it like him. He didn't even know that there was such a force called the Ziyang Empire.
After a long time, the old man said with a smile on his face: "Come, write a letter and hand it over to the monarch of the Ziyang Empire for me, in the name of the Wanbaolou branch of the Ziyang Empire;"
"Yes~" A response came from outside the door, and the faint footsteps were far away.
The old man smiled: "Interesting, interesting, a small country is actually concerned, Ziyang Empire, it seems that the business with the Ziyang Empire in the future will change its strategy, I hope the adults above can be satisfied;"
......
"Hahaha, ridiculous, ridiculous, these guys actually started to co-sign to blackmail the saint, it seems that they really didn't see their catties clearly, and thought they could turn the tables?
On the undulating hills of the night, the military tents were lined up in rows, hundreds and thousands, the bonfires were bright, and in one military tent, Wei Tao looked at the letter in his hand and laughed.
"Okay, whatever they toss, Lin Hai's old fellow, I guess it's a little too much, this Ziyang Empire, it's not him who has the final say, it's not Pang Yuan who has the final say, the holy golden mouth is not open, who dares to exceed half a point;"
After pondering, a general said to Wei Tao: "But Marshal Wei, the prime minister has always been fair and strict, iron-faced and selfless, and has helped us many times, so we really don't help?"
"Hahaha, no, no, if we interfere in this matter again, there will be not much benefit, but there will be a lot of variables, and besides, if I Wei Tao wants to do something in the snow, instead of just icing on the cake;"
Wei Tao then said: "In recent years, the intention of the saint to set up only one minister of state has become more and more obvious, and Lin Hai, the old fox, has been suppressed by Pang Yuan in terms of influence and his own strength, so he has taken the opportunity to enhance his influence from time to time, in order to pay attention to the saint;"
"This incident, people with a discerning eye know that the kid himself is not guilty, this kind of thing can't stand up to strict investigation, it's just that the anger of the saint makes some people think that there is an opportunity, and they have been pressed for a long time, and no one is happy, not to mention that he is still the minister of a country, so ah, some people have already been blinded by power, so they want to take the opportunity to suppress Pang Yuan, enhance their own influence, and compete with Pang Yuan;"
"As for Lu Ling, to put it simply, it is just a chess piece in the struggle between the two sides, if she dies, Lin Hai wins, and if he lives, Pang Yuan wins;"
"The reason why the Holy Lord allowed the two sides to quarrel like this, and also had the idea of seeing what the two of them were capable of, but this time the matter is not as simple as it seems, the Holy One has hesitated for too long, this is not our Holy Lord's style, so, this time, in my opinion, disputes are disputes, if anyone falls too deep and uses their power to cross the line, they will fall into passivity;"
"The prison of the imperial capital, most of them have already been arranged with layers of eyeliner, it depends on which of the two ministers of state can not hold their breath first and act privately, judging from the current situation, Lin Hai's side will definitely act first;"
A group of generals patted their asses and said: "Marshal Wei is wise, and he actually sees things so thoroughly;"
Wei Tao raised his head and said: "The bystanders are clear, what is wise or not, don't wear a high hat for me, and I was also woken up by the masters, but I didn't guess it myself, you are all brothers and sisters who have lived and died together for many years, so I made it clear to you that it is best not to wade into the troubled waters this time;"
Finally, Wei Tao solemnly reminded: "The holy butcher's knife, it's not just about slashing the Wu Alliance, the internal worries of the empire are still there, and at the same time, I advise you, forget what I said to you tonight, otherwise a big disaster will come when the time comes, don't blame me Wei Tao for not talking about friendship;"
The dozen or so generals around him all looked at each other, all nodded silently, their faces were heavy, and some thoughtful people were even sweating profusely, directly extinguishing the flame of impulse.
......
Half a month passed in an instant, and while the two sides were arguing, in the depths of the palace, there was a deep and quiet underground prisoner, everything was made of very precious metal, so even an ordinary Spirit Emperor Realm martial artist could not escape from prison here.
There was no one in the place where Lu Ling was, only occasionally a trace of terrible screams came from the depths, except for the quietly burning fire, everything here seemed to have no temperature, even human nature.
"Ah~"
Another tragic sound woke up Lu Ling, the sound echoed in the dark cell, Lu Ling had slowly turned from the initial worry and fear into a habit, here, the strange thing was that no one embarrassed him, the main thing was that the cells around here were empty, and it was really uncomfortable to be alone.
