Chapter 123, The Emperor's Request
Shang Shu Tian Xiang of the Ministry of Works, who was arrested and imprisoned at the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, also confessed quickly.
Fortunately, the military department and the ritual department are not directly related to them, otherwise, they will definitely not be able to escape the joint relationship.
This made both the military department and the ritual department secretary breathe a sigh of relief, they knew that this was the emperor's plan to let them go, and he didn't plan to do them.
Of course, the most important reason is that the two have not been in office for too long, and they have not fallen into a very deep position, as long as they get rid of their relationship with Du Mingsi, the emperor will not go too far.
After the fate of the other four scholars, the secretary of the military department and the secretary of the Ministry of Rites quickly found the emperor, began to explain their mistakes, and took the initiative to take refuge.
The main thing is that Du Mingsi doesn't pay attention to them at all, intending to leave them to fend for themselves, and they naturally don't want to follow Du Mingsi and fall down in a daze.
The power of the entire court, from the fall of four Shangshu to the defection of the other two Shangshu to the emperor, has undergone earth-shaking changes.
However, the emperor still did not dare to touch Du Mingsi.
Because Du Mingsi is indeed not simple, the four Shangshu have no direct evidence at all to prove that what they did has anything to do with Du Mingsi.
All this was asked of them by the family behind them.
This is the genius of Du Mingsi, although they are headed by Du Mingsi, but many things are profited by the family behind them.
Du Mingsi didn't get any benefits, and he couldn't even find that he had accepted bribes from anyone.
Obviously, the cunning Du Mingsi had expected all this a long time ago, so he had nothing to fear.
He still holds a lot of power, especially the power of a lot of armies, which is in his hands.
Once something happens to Du Mingsi, I am afraid that those armies will rebel, and when the time comes, it will be the emperor who will lose.
The emperor didn't move Du Mingsi, and between him and Du Mingsi, it seemed that water and fire were incompatible, but they still didn't collide.
A few days later, Qin Yuan finally sent a very precious piece of news.
After reading it, the emperor was shocked.
"This Du Mingsi is so hidden!" The emperor was very shocked, and said to Su Fang on the opposite side: "Look at this, you may know what Du Mingsi has in mind." ”
Su Fang took it over curiously, and was also very surprised, and said: "This Du Mingsi turned out to be a spy of the Daning Empire!" ”
The Soviet side was indeed shocked!
He never thought that the prime minister of the Great Qin Empire would be a spy of the Daning Empire.
"No wonder Du Mingsi has been very calm recently, and he doesn't care about the affairs of the court at all, it turns out that he is not from those families at all."
"I guess, I'm afraid that even those families would never have imagined that Du Mingsi would be a spy of the Daning Empire."
When the Soviet side saw the news, it could not calm down for a long time.
A lot of things, so it makes sense.
After the power of the imperial court was all in the hands of the emperor, Du Mingsi didn't care at all.
Being able to cause disputes and battles between the emperor and the family is the thing he is most happy to see.
Mao Jiarong came in a hurry and said breathlessly: "Your Majesty, report urgently, the Jiangnan family has begun to fight back." ”
"It's time to come, it's coming after all." The Emperor sighed.
After receiving the report, the emperor's face became more and more ugly, and he casually threw it to the Su side to check.
After reading it, the Soviet side roughly understood the relevant situation.
The situation in the Jiangnan area has begun to develop in the direction he expected.
In order to confront the emperor, the family colluded with local officials, and there was already a lot of trouble.
In desperation, the people began to smash and loot, and the law and order in many places fell into chaos.
The emperor looked at the Su side and asked, "Is there a solution?" ”
"Yes." The Soviet side replied.
"How?"
"Kill!" The answer of the Soviet side was very simple.
"Kill?" The emperor fell into deep thought and said, "It's difficult. ”
"Therefore, it is necessary to send a man of outstanding ability, and a tough method, who is not afraid of them, and of course, there must be no shortage of troops."
"Among those family landlords, there must be many private soldiers and martial arts masters, they will definitely not compromise, the simplest, most direct and effective way is to kill a hundred people."
"It is precisely because they guess that the emperor will be too careful, so they dare to do it blatantly, if the emperor kills decisively, they dare to make trouble, they will kill."
"As long as they are scared and cowardly, see who dares to continue to oppose the emperor."
The Soviet side said its own methods and its own opinions.
This method was very effective, but the emperor was very hesitant.
"Your Majesty, when the interruption continues, you will suffer from the chaos, you also said that the opportunities that have not been solved by several generations of royal families are all at this time, if you don't make a decision, you will have no chance in the future." Zuo Qianqiu said.
"Your Majesty, if you believe in Weichen, Weichen is willing to be this up-and-coming bird and remove all obstacles for the emperor." Mao Jiarong immediately stood up and said.
The emperor looked at the three of them and said, "It's not that I disagree, but I really can't find someone who can do this." ”
"Does the emperor not believe in Weichen?" Mao Jiarong asked.
"I can't do without you and Zuo Qianqiu, one of you controls Dongchang, the other masters Jinyiwei, with you here, Du Mingsi will be jealous."
"Once the two of you leave either, Du Mingsi will not let go of such a good opportunity, he will definitely make a move."
"When the time comes, the court that has been mastered with great difficulty will fall into his control again, which is not what I want to see." The Emperor said.
After listening to the emperor's words, they understood the emperor's thoughts.
The threat of having Du Mingsi in the court has not been resolved, and none of them can leave.
Moreover, this old fox is very cunning, once Du Mingsi is given a chance to breathe, he will bite like a poisonous snake.
"If the Eighth Prince can go, no matter his means or ingenuity, he will be able to deal with the situation in Jiangnan." Zuo Qianqiu said.
Mao Jiarong also agrees with this.
The Emperor also understood this.
However, Qin Yuan finally became Du Mingsi's staff.
Moreover, Du Mingsi is the identity of a spy of the Daning Empire, and he was also brought back by Qin Yuan.
Therefore, Qin Yuan, for the sake of the overall situation, can't move.
They were all silent.
In the entire Great Qin Empire, there was no one who could do great things.
However, the Soviet side did not feel good.
Because the emperor has been looking at the Soviet side.
Su Fang hurriedly asked: "Your Majesty, what do you see me doing like this, I am just a doctor, and I have no ability." ”
Zuo Qianqiu looked at it, and he was also very clear about the emperor's current thoughts, and said: "Your Majesty, the old slave is also worried about your condition. ”
The Soviet side is not a suitable candidate, once the emperor has an accident again, I am afraid, no one will be able to treat the emperor.
Mao Jiarong didn't speak, he didn't dare to refute the emperor's opinion, and he didn't dare to offend the Soviet side, silence was the smartest choice.
"Su Fang, I understand your mind, and I also know that you don't want to be an official at all, let alone get involved in any disputes."
"However, when the Great Qin Empire is in danger, I can only ask you to come forward now."
"You are the most suitable and the best person in terms of heart, intelligence, and personality."
"Moreover, I don't feel at ease if I hand over the affairs in the Jiangnan area to anyone, but let you be in charge alone, and I can rest assured."
"So, for the sake of the Great Qin Empire, for the sake of the tens of millions of people of the Great Qin Empire, I beg you here, please don't refuse!"
The emperor cherished the Su side and bowed his hand.
This kind of gift, except for the emperor's parents, is only enjoyed by the Su side.
This frightened the Soviet side!
Even Zuo Qianqiu was shocked.
Not to mention Mao Jiarong, his eyes almost popped out, it was unbelievable.
