Chapter 53: Telling the Government and Attacking the Weak (5)
"Commander, I know what you want to do here, don't be impatient, let's sit down and talk." Shi Xiushen pressed Qi Shi's outstretched arm and ordered him to sit down in front of him.
Seeing that he spoke without concealment, Qi Zhi thought that it would be done, and said with great joy: "Since Shi Siban understands, it is easy to say it below." ”
"At that time, I originally planned to pay you back, but I sent someone to the general's mansion, but I didn't see it for three days, and it didn't matter if I was self-sufficient, so I stayed in the cold house, no, it was still hanging on the wall of the inner study." Shi Xiushen pointed inside and said.
"It didn't matter at the time, but now it's not trivial, and Wan Wangsi forbids it to be returned." Qi Shi bowed deeply.
"But their government is now looking for a man...... If you know about that, you will definitely send me to testify, and this will be a good piece of evidence. ”
Qi Shi's face suddenly became gloomy, and his voice was also raised: "Master Shi, what does this mean?" ”
"It's just a sigh," Shi Xiushen sneered slightly from the corner of his mouth, "Can't every word have a deep meaning, right?" ”
"Oh, yes......" Qi Zhi deeply regretted that he was too excited, and his heart was seen through by him.
Shi Xiushen looked indifferent, turned around and went to the inner room to take the sword, and handed it to Qi Zhi. Although Qi Zhi was a little unhappy, he still took the sword and thanked him before leaving in a hurry.
"Report, the Yuefu faction leader Zheng Shiyan begs to see!"
"It must be for that," Wan Heshun was still pacing, "tell him to stay in the palace for a while!" ”
"Lu Dang is here again for help...... Hu Qi said as he pouted.
Wan Heshun waved his hand: "Why don't I know the truth of cold lips and teeth?" It's just that he loses both emotion and reason, and it's okay to fight secretly, and it's all on the surface, and this official can't always do it against the imperial decree, right? ”
Hu Qi said: "Wei Chong, that thief, is also a great pleasure when he dies, but on the bright side, it is good." ”
"I wondered, we are close to Your Majesty, why haven't we ever had a second-hand edict? If I can get a royal pen holy decree, I will have seven points of confidence in a decisive battle with the willow thief! Wan Heshun knocked his head and said.
"It seems that Your Majesty doesn't want to punish ......," Hu Qi stopped his mouth halfway through his words.
Wan Heshun suddenly realized, and thought about it: "Yes, Liu Zhennian dared to take the holy southern tour, is it because of this......"
"Oh, no matter," his head hurt more and more, "I'll go see that kid first!" ”
"General Zheng, I haven't seen you for a long time, your face has changed, why did you grow this beard short?" Wan Heshun smiled kindly.
Zheng Shiyan touched his beard and said with a smile: "I was so worried that I fell off a lot, and I will wipe out my hair another day." ”
"How can any hair fall out with a beard?" Wan Heshun heard that he seemed to have something to say, so he asked.
"Both are hairs, attached to the skin, and if you have to die first, wouldn't it be too unrighteous to obey the hair?" Zheng Shiyan slapped his knees and laughed.
Wan Heshun finally understood what he meant, and nodded slowly: "It's a pity that these hairs don't know what righteousness is, unless they follow the trend, they will lose everything." ”
"It seems that the king of the county is very keen on playing dumb riddles with each other! But these words were taught by Lord Lu, and I don't want to guess anymore, so let's talk openly. Zheng Shiyan took a sip of tea.
"King Wanjun, you are a smart person, if the Liu Party finishes my Yuefu, it is already a self-evident thing who will have to be eliminated next," Zheng Shiyan said, "Even if you do not move, they will also control Nanjing with iron heart, and will never leave a way for people to retreat." Now that the Liu Dang is investigating Wei Chong, it will be no surprise that he will confess to the leader, Ye Yongjia will send troops to 'invite' him to the lobby to testify, in case he goes, it will be the Longtan Tiger's Den, and it will be difficult to return. ”
"Did the leader do any of these things? If you have done it, it will be irrefutable, and the court will have the final say; I haven't done it, I'll help you deal with the Liu Party, just like Wang Hanlin's time. Wan Heshun reached for the teapot and poured it into his bowl.
Zheng Shiyan respectfully returned the salute and continued: "You don't have to use the name of helping your relatives or not, if you go to the court and let the thief comment, it is meaningless to be true or false. You need to pay attention to this problem. But if he hadn't stepped into the hall of the government, and according to Wei Chong's oral statement, there was nowhere to check, there would have been no crime according to the law. ”
"Finally willing to get to the point," Wan Heshun was extremely curious about this statement, "What, let this official help you refuse to testify?" ”
The word 'refusal' was too resolute, and Zheng Shiyan was a little unbearable, so he had to answer cautiously: "Hmm...... Almost. ”
"Lord Lu has such a big guts?" Wan Heshun couldn't help but be suspicious.
Zheng Shi said solemnly: "At a critical juncture, who doesn't want to give it a go?" Fearing the head and tail is not something that Yue Gong can do! ”
"It's a bit of a risk, but I'm okay with it." Wan Heshun spread his arms and immediately decided.
Zheng Shiyan was very excited, and was about to bow his head to thank him, when he suddenly saw Wan Heshun shaking his hand again.
"The ...... of the King"
"This official has to ask for some benefits," Wan Heshun's eyes revealed toughness, "in order to work with your lord!" ”
Zheng Shiyan's forehead suddenly sweated: "It's okay, the king of the county, please speak." ”
"Let your officers return to Yuefu, and all the soldiers outside the city will be under my command." Wan Heshun said, raised his eyebrows and looked at Zheng Shiyan's face, the latter was stunned. "Don't misunderstand General Zheng, this is not an unreasonable move, according to this official's view, there are three advantages: first, it can be shown to outsiders to prove that my two mansions are intimate; Second, in case of emergency, the command must be orderly to prevent the results of the failure of the last mutiny from repeating themselves; Third, if the generals need to hide in Tibet, they should be guarded by soldiers, and I can be summoned into the city at any time in the name of the governor of Nanjing. To be honest, this condition is not harsh. ”
Zheng Shiyan listened to what he said, and he couldn't analyze it one by one, so he had to think about Lu Fangxuan's thoughts, and agreed first: "I hope that Wan Daren can keep his promise." But I have to go back to Yue Guogong and do what he advises. ”
"Then I'm here to look forward to his reply from Lu Langqing."
Viet House, inside the Council Chamber.
After Zheng Shiyan reported to Lu Fangxuan, he leaned over and asked, "It's the end of the road, and I feel that there is a rope to climb along, no problem." Ignorance...... What do adults like? ”
Lu Fangxuan gritted his teeth and sighed: "It's all about now." However, Wan He Shunsu will act at the opportunity, and if he defects to the Chengliu Party, it will be difficult to kill us completely. In particular, he said that the word rejection also scared me. ”
"Why?" Zheng Shiyan asked blankly.
Lu Fangxuan smiled bitterly: "At that time, it is likely that there will be a holy decree in the palace, how dare I refuse to testify?" It's just a few tosses, just a delay! He wants to see that I am so helpless, and it is very likely that he will betray again...... Forget it, it's useless to think about it so much, I'd better feel the feeling of resignation......"
