Chapter 116: King Jing's thoughts
King Jing nodded, and said affirmatively: "How the dead soldiers of Shansha climbed over the city wall and crossed over is a matter of the past, and the soldiers and soldiers who can be mobilized over the years have all been replaced, if it is just a small city defense patrol, those who should be dealt with have also been disposed of, and the clues of the 'internal thief' have gradually become clear due to your several mentions, so the people I sent to investigate may have an answer in a few days...... So what I really have to care about is the promotion and transfer of soldiers and officials in the past few years. β
"If that's the case......" Feng Zhirong heard that King Jing had a direction for the thief, so he didn't ask anymore, but continued to deduce the topic: "The point is the promotion and transfer of civil and military officials over the years, although Your Majesty will know everything, but there are still factors worth exploring in this subtle cat, so Your Majesty should have questioned Yang Dong's unusual promotion, but he also pressed it because of this?" She originally thought it was funny about this matter, and just wanted to say that the emperor of the past was so constrained by the ministers, but after thinking about it, the current emperor is not a faint monarch or a tyrant, and as a wise monarch, he naturally has to fulfill the obligation to listen to the opinions of his subordinates, not to mention that if the people below conjure up a reasonable but very coincidental case, as an emperor, he cannot dismiss it without evidence.
It's just that the monarch, though virtuous and benevolent, is a little indecisiveβit's just that there are always two sides to everything, so she doesn't need to delve into it, just do what King Jing has told her.
King Jing bowed his head and said: "If there is nothing to do, it is good to find a way to put Yang Dong, a person who has been promoted exceptionally, at the mercy of Yang Dong, but if there is anything, then I am afraid that there will be something in the future It is not just as simple as two teams of dead soldiers." β
King Jing's words were natural, but the implication of his words was: Maybe there are people in Daye who have different intentions.
Whether this direction is to collude with foreign clans or to seize power internally, it is not a good thing for Daye - not to mention that it will shake the royal power! In Feng Zhirong's view, although there are occasional conflicts in Daye on the border, at least most of the people in Daye live and work in peace and contentment, so if there is any "change", it will definitely not be good for the people.
I'm afraid that some people will make this originally peaceful territory a mess for their own fame and fortune.
Feng Zhirong hesitated for a moment and said: "I know that the sooner this kind of thing is investigated, the better, if this Yang Dong is a person with different intentions, then it is really not a good thing for him to become the right governor of the former army, after all, this is a position that can hold military power...... If you slowly replace yourself with your own people in the future, it will be a big trouble. β
King Jing said: "This is okay, after all, the former army mainly has a former army general and the left and right governors of the separation of powers, after all, the person in charge is still the former army general, so no matter how much Yang Dong wants to change people, at most he can only get a small piece, I am afraid that he will be familiar with the military aircraft and become a material that can be used by those who have a heart." β
After King Jing's explanation, Feng Zhirong figured it out after thinking about it.
There is a big general pressing on the top, and there is a colleague of the Zuo Governor next to him, although he looks like a colleague on the surface, but he is actually a competitor, so it is difficult for the three of them to collude, so what he is most afraid of is that the military plane leaks to someone who has a heart - especially the initiator of this series of incidents is probably the brutal current Xiantuo King Kasta, if Kasda succeeds in Daye's border military aircraft, I am afraid that the war will be endless as soon as it is set off.
Feng Zhirong pursed her lips for a while, and finally said, "Then let's re-clarify the purpose!" What do you want me to do? β
Feng Zhirong was afraid that King Jing would not understand, so he said: "Previously, I wanted to start with Yang Ruai and find out if Yang Dong was the thief who let the Shansha dead soldier in, but now there are clues about the incident of the Shansha dead soldier, and it may have nothing to do with Yang Dong." However, Yang Dong has been promoted quickly in the past few years, so his cat drowning may not be in the simple Shansha death incident, but another layer of deeper worries, so it is also a check, I have to change directions. β
King Jing bowed his head and said, "That's right, it's very clear." For Yang Dong at the moment, I just want to know why he can be promoted so quickly, but the people under the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of War have all checked, but they can't find any problems. Although Yang Dong is not qualified enough, he can't find a mistake in several promotions. β
"But, what if it's really okay?"
King Jing shook his head: "Do you know that if this official is promoted too quickly, not to mention the chattering imperial historians of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, even the ministers of other departments will also be able to participate in the excerpts." But in the past few years, there has been no excerpt of Yang Dong. β
Feng Zhirong's face was full of doubts: "Or is he very popular, so faceless?" β
"He wasn't a dignified official in the first place." King Jing frowned and said: "He was really conscientious when he was an experience, and he was afraid of making mistakes all day long, afraid of offending the military attaches around him, and afraid of offending the civil officials who were far away in the capital, and he didn't even dare to attend ordinary banquets, for fear of being divided into a circle, so he was often alone, and it was impossible to have such a big face." β
Feng Zhirong imagined what Yang Dong used to look like, and said, "What about now?" β
"It's like a different person, the dignified former military governor of the right capital, no matter what time he is." Although King Jing literally seemed to be a compliment, there was no hint of praise in that tone, and some were just contempt and dissatisfaction.
Feng Zhirong didn't care about the literal and unspoken meaning, but said, "What about what does he do?" Still the same as before? β
King Jing thought for a while, and said: "It's the same as before, and I can't find anything wrong, and I'm very cautious, but the cowering appearance is gone, and I turn off the lights early every day, and I don't work with candles like before, and occasionally I will participate in some wine banquets, but I am not greedy for a cup, and I go home early." β
"Did he have his head knocked out, or was he secretly replaced?" Feng Zhirong felt incredible when she heard it, and simply quipped: "I wonder if he has a twin brother, and this is how he changed people, or one is dead and the other is on top!" β
King Jing laughed when he heard this: "Your imagination is also rich, but this is really nothing. β
Feng Zhirong was embarrassed by the laughter, so she had to pout and say, "You know again?" β
King Jing hooked the corners of his mouth, and there was a little confidence in his words: "Although my people can't enter the Right Governor's Mansion, in the past few years, except for Yang Dong's position as the Right Governor, almost all of them are my father and my people, and it is difficult for Yang Dong to conceal it." β
Feng Zhirong originally thought of the former army as a hidden danger that was not under the control of the imperial court, but she didn't expect King Jing to say this, which greatly subverted her understanding, so she also said: "Do you want to catch turtles in an urn?" β
