Chapter 448: Framing

Jiankang Chaotang rewarded Wu Mingche for his merits, originally because he was the assassin of Jiangzhou, and he was worried that he would sit big, so he ordered Xiao Daxin, the king of Xunyang County, to go out of the town.

But Xiao Gang is already fifty years old, and he is afraid that the crown prince will ascend the throne in the future, and there will be a strong prince, and the country will fall into civil war and split again, so there is a military and political match between Wu Mingche and Xiao Daxin.

Wu Mingche asked Jiankang to ask for Jiangzhou, confiscate the land occupied by the scholars, and classify the hidden households as tax households.

Xiao Gang immediately agreed, but of course it was impossible for his son Xiao Daxin to be this villain in front of the Shi clan.

Since it was Wu Mingche's initiative, he also pushed the boat down the river, led by him, the so-called military and political division, but Wu Mingche became Wu Mingche's presiding over the mouth and land inventory, and finally monopolized the military and political power in Jiangzhou.

And Liu Zhongli, after several years of disgrace, this time finally made meritorious contributions in the war of the western expedition to Jiangzhou as a pioneer general, and regained Xiao Gang's trust in ability.

With Xiao Yi's self-immolation and death, Duan Shao also returned to Jingkou, Xiao Gang specially ordered someone to invite Duan Shao to Jiankang for a banquet to thank him for forcing Chen Baxian back from the military threat during the Jiangzhou War.

It's just that Duan Shao received other news and never went to Jiankang City.

It turned out that Xiao Gang saw that Jiangzhou had returned to the territory, so he had the heart to cheer up, get rid of Duan Shao, the so-called commander of the Qi army stationed in Liang, and drive the Qi people back to Jiangbei, and set up this Hongmen banquet.

But there were too many people who couldn't stand Jiangnan Tongqi, and seeing that Duan Shao was not moved, Xiao Gang finally stopped thinking and focused his attention on Jiangzhou again.

Jiangzhou is already in chaos, Wu Mingche's methods are too ruthless, the so-called inventory of the household registration and fields of the Shi clan is completely aimed at raiding the house, and it has also forced the Jiangzhou Shi clan to rebel and resist by force.

But Wu Mingche really has 30,000 elite soldiers under his command, how can the servants and subordinates of the Hao clan be able to contend with, but they resist by force and give people a handle, Wu Mingche has no scruples, and kills the Jiangzhou Shi clan like a chilling cicada.

Jiankang fishermen can often see corpses floating downstream, and even Duan Shao secretly complained to Wu Mingche that it is indeed convenient to abandon the corpses in the Yangtze River after killing, but it is also necessary to consider the feelings of people downstream.

Wu Mingche then changed the water burial to cremation, but he killed too much, countless people went to Jiankang to complain, Xiao Gang repeatedly ordered Wu Mingche to control the scale and intensity of the investigation, Wu Mingche always turned a deaf ear.

"Your Majesty, Wu Mingche does not respect the order, and his people pretend to investigate and do not obey, and the minister thinks that his heart may have opposing intentions."

Wei Cang's words won Xiao Gang's approval, Wu Mingche since he took sole control of Jiangzhou, listened to the tone and did not listen to the announcement, and acted more and more boldly, I thought it was just another ruin, but I didn't expect it to be a butcher's knife waved at the Jiangzhou scholars.

Just came out of the pastoral, and he behaved like this, so that he could pay back the town for a long time.

Xiao Gang immediately issued an order to try to transfer Wu Mingche back to Jiangdong and replace him with Wei Cang.

However, the imperial envoy was driven back to Jiankang by Wu Mingche, and Wu Mingche immediately reported to Luoyang.

Gao Cheng learned one after another that Xiao Gang wanted to plot Duan Shao, and wanted to control Jiangzhou, and the clay man also had three points of anger, not to mention Xiao Gaowang.

"I have to let Xiao Gang understand whose world Jiangnan is."

Gao Cheng frowned and Wei Xiaokuan snorted coldly.

Soon, rumors spread in Jiankang City, all of which were framing Wei Cang, slanderous words, unbearable, and the ministers came to the table to impeach, as if they had seen and heard it with their own eyes.

The so-called public mouth is gold, Wei Cang can hardly prove his innocence, and Xiao Gang has no choice but to expel him from Jiankang.

Wei Cang left Jiankang, and Xiao Gang sent people to catch up with the carriage and horses, bringing words, hoping that he would stay useful and plan for the future.

Xiao Gang and Wei Cang's ministers have been known for many years, and they know him as a person, how can they believe those rumors, the so-called derogatory rumors, but the persecution of the ministers is too much, and they have to do it as a last resort.

Wei Cang watched the envoy leave, and moved his gaze to the surging river, a wry smile appeared on his face.

There is no future.

Everything he has today is for the Son of Heaven to try to get rid of the control of the Northern Qi Dynasty.

But today's circumstances have made him understand that whether it is Wu Mingche from other towns or Jiankang courtiers, there are not many people who secretly know Qi.

What made him even more desperate was that Liu Zhongli was also among the ministers who were impeached.

This is a dangerous signal, of course, Liu Zhongli can also quibble that he misheard people's words, so he was impeached, but Wei Cang believed that he was also instigated by the people behind the scenes.

Outside the forbidden army, Liu Zhongli and Wu Mingche were in charge of the Jiangdong soldiers and horses, and if both of them were in charge of the affairs of the country, there would be no room for recovery in state affairs.

As soon as Xiao Liang's envoy left, another person came from Jingkou to deliver a letter for Wei Xiaokuan.

Wei Cang and Wei Xiaokuan are both from the Jingzhao Wei clan, and they are also of the same clan, but the blood relationship is very far away.

This is not a letter soliciting Wei Can, on the contrary, Wei Xiaokuan bluntly said in the letter, that is, he poured dirty water on him, and said that Xiao Liang will die, and the Lord of Qi will not treat Xiao Gang's family badly, hoping that Wei Cang will not regenerate right and wrong, so that Xiao Gang and Gao Cheng Weng's son-in-law will lose harmony, and in the future, not only Xiao Gang's family will be killed, but even his own sons and nephews will be implicated.

Wei Cang looked at it, his heart was like ashes, it turned out that Northern Qi's control of Jiangdong was deeper than he thought.

No matter how much he plans for Xiao Gang, in the end, he is forcing the king to his death.

Wei Cang glanced back at Jiankang City, wrote a resignation letter on the spot, and sent it to Miyagi by his son Vennie, while he returned home in embarrassment with the sewage splashed by others with infamy.

And how Xiao Gang was willing to accept this resignation, he was moved by Wei Cang's son Wei Ni:

"Sheji sent it, but in Wei Gong, but I was frustrated for a while, how could I abandon me."

Wei Ni also knew the friendship between the two, but Wei Cang had already made up his mind, and it was not something he could control, so he had to insist that Wei Cang abandon his post, not resentful of the king, but just wandering for many years, with white sideburns, changed the local accent, and now he is exhausted, so he has the heart not to ask about state affairs, but to send his affection to the landscape.

Xiao Gang also knew Wei Cang's grievances, and finally agreed to resign, but he still let Wei Ni take the talk, if Wei Cang was tired of the landscape, the door of the court was always open to him.

This time, Wei Cang was attacked by a group of courtiers, which made Xiao Gang understand that the group of ministers under his hand had already been surnamed Gao, and when he contacted them to encourage him to cheer up, he felt even more hateful.

Xiao Gang didn't believe Liu Zhongli's claim that he was deceived before impeaching Wei Cang.

Both of them are from their own backgrounds, and they know each other well, how can they believe those framed words.

And after Liu Zhongli was on the table, he took the family roll to the Suzaku Hang camp, and his behavior was the same as Xiao Zhengde back then, even if Xiao Gang sent his father Liu Jin to summon him, he never left the camp.
