Chapter 185: Pei Mansion Old Slave
"Although Weichen was entrusted by Liu Saburo, he asked about the above old things, although he had changed his opinion of Xuanzhi, but he didn't have a deep friendship at first, but because he was prejudiced in the past, he was offended, and he didn't want to go, so he was invited, and after talking with Xuanzhi, he really felt that Xuanzhi's wisdom and talent were quite far-sighted, especially ...... The Queen Mother forgave Weichen bluntly, four years ago, the sage issued an edict to sin himself, Wechen has known that for many years the sage does not ask about political affairs, and the military and political affairs of the world are actually in charge of the Queen Mother. β
Now for the Great Zhou, there is no ban on prohibiting people from discussing national affairs, don't say that He Zhan and Xue Luli and other prominent sons and nephews of the clan are the people of cloth, and there is no shortage of people gathering to talk about national affairs, of course, the Queen Mother is not to blame, but still quite interested: "What did Xue Xuanzhi say? β
"Xuan Zhi bluntly said, no matter how old, how many women are not weak eyebrows, only to say that this dynasty, there is also a female Empress Yao Shunwen to lay the rule of the prosperous era, the saint once indulged in alcohol because of sorrow, if it is not for the queen mother's virtue in the past three years, how can the national politics be orderly. These words are really the same as Wei Chen's knowledge. β
Of course, the Queen Mother could hear that He Zhan was taking the opportunity to flatter, and although she was very useful in her heart, she said: "I was helpless back then, and it is a blessing in the world that the saint finally got rid of his sorrow." β
He Zhan's face was full of worry: "However, the sage believes too much in Feng Xue's second phase, and then Rong Guogong and so on...... Those who value profit and abuse power are really worrying. β
Feng Bozhang and Xue Qian are already two sharp thorns in the heart of the Queen Mother, and they are also a Rongguo Gong, Liu Xuanqing's case was made out by him back then, and after the Shuo Ri Dynasty meeting, he bribed Gu Huaien, and gradually gained the trust of the Son of Heaven.
But of course she didn't say it at this time, only listened to He Zhan continue: "Xuan Zhi thought that Xue Zhi was suppressed and excluded by Xie Tingshi and Mao Xiangguo, although he was awarded the post of governor of the government, but it was like a show, and it was far from expectations...... Because Feng Xiangguo was once Pei Xiangguo's protΓ©gΓ©, Xuanzhi suspected that he persuaded Xue Xiangyi to use Pei Zheng's case to frame Xie Xiangguo and Mao Xiangguo, named Zhongliang Zhaoxue, which was actually to eliminate dissidents. β
"This is all Xue Xuanzhi's inference?" The Queen Mother was shocked in her heart: "The Xue family and the Pei family have been in-laws for generations, and Xue Xuanzhi used to have the righteousness of teacher and student with Pei Reverse, does he not suspect that Pei Zheng's case is intentionally framed?" β
"As a subject of the Great Zhou Dynasty, because of the importance of loyalty to the monarchy, personal feelings are secondary, and Xuanzhi and Weichen both think like this, so they have the same temperament. Xuanzhi once said that Pei Shun was a relative and a minister, if it was not for the conclusive evidence of the crime, how could the saint be convicted and punished, as a courtier, he would never dare to question the holy judgment, Xuanzhi even thought that even Xue and Feng Erxiang would never believe that Pei Zheng was wronged, but he used this name to eradicate dissidents, but he did not expect that this behavior would put the monarch at a disadvantage, Pan Shun is still based on Yingzhou, if the Great Zhou Dynasty is in turmoil, wouldn't it be the name of the traitor to invade our land? β
If Pei Zheng has grievances, isn't the "accomplice" Pan Bo also framed, and the crime of treason and rebellion has become a helpless crime.
Therefore, He Yan, the son of heaven, will not look over the old case no matter what, but will only frame Liu Du to punish Xie Mao, and even Wei Yuanping!
He Zhan's words obviously pointed out that Xue Qian and Feng Bozhang were fighting for the party, but in fact, they had no intention of overturning the case for Pei Zheng, of course, they also had the intention of showing sincerity to the Queen Mother, implying that with the court dispute between the four years, he and Xue Luli had already gained insight into some hidden feelings, although this matter was a bit risky, but it might make the Queen Mother believe.
If you want to talk about the current court situation, if the world still can't see through Xie Wei and others as the queen mother's party, Xue Feng is the arm of the Son of Heaven, on the surface it seems to be a dispute between the two factions, but in fact, the queen mother's desire to come to the court is undiminished, that is a real joke.
As long as Pei Zheng's old case is not touched, the Queen Mother will not be afraid, and more importantly, ordinary people will not be able to be truly reused by the Queen Mother.
He Zhan pulled Xue Lu to stand in line, expressing that the two were willing to be loyal to the monarchy, and the so-called monarchy was obviously not He Yan's monarchy at this time.
"Fourteen Lang, when I ask today, you should understand that you can't spread it." Regarding He Zhan's show of loyalty, the Queen Mother was still noncommittal at this time, as if she didn't understand it at all.
"Wechen obeys."
"As for Xue Xuanzhi, although you are good friends with him, you still don't have any contact with him recently." The Queen Mother said again.
Even though He Zhan is wise and good at observing people's hearts, at this time, he is not sure how much the Queen Mother will listen to his words, whether the Xue family can turn the crisis into safety as planned, but it has to be like this, after leaving the palace, not only did he not interact with Lu Li again, but even told Shi Niang not to go to Xue Mansion recently.
"The Queen Mother should be tempted again." Eleven Niang concluded.
He Zhan also thought so: "Although in order to prevent leakage, we should no longer contact Lu Li, but in case Lu Li is not guarded and is in the trap, wouldn't it be a waste of our previous efforts?" β
Eleven Niang chuckled: "Things have come to this point, how can Brother Lu act recklessly?" β
ββ
However, it was said that He Zhan had just come out of the Hanxiang Palace, and a person came out from behind the screen at the Queen Mother's interrogation place, and it was Wei Yuanping.
"You have heard those words of Shishilang, what do you think?" The Queen Mother asked.
"I have long seen through that this son is not a thing in the pool, and he is really bright-eyed and good at judging interests." Wei Yuanping stroked his long beard: "It's just that the Xue family is too deeply involved with the Pei family, although it seems that Xue Qian is not as straightforward as he appears at the moment, and he is really a traitor and loyal, but it is difficult to say what the rest of the Xue family is, if the Queen Mother asks me what I think, I should simply eradicate it." β
"If it were that easy, I wouldn't have wasted it." The Queen Mother frowned: "Although the Xue family does not have the right to be in charge of the army, it is deeply rooted, how can a little crime be uprooted?" and then use the felony of rebellion, but at this time, there is no coincidence, not to mention that the saint is not so easy to deceive, if it causes the family to be prominent, everyone is in danger, and then they make a joint letter to implore for a clear judgment, but it is self-defeating. β
"The Queen Mother means ......"
"He Shishilang is so optimistic about Xue Xuanzhi, it should be true that he is like-minded, and another important thing is that the Xue family is behind Xue Xuanzhi, if he can make friends, he will also be his foundation in the future, Ming Xiangong has no doubt about the cultivation of this great-grandson, Xue Qian has been vicious over the years, and there is also Xue Zizhan's plan in the future."
"Xue Qian is the eldest son after all, so he won't be able to do it." Wei Yuanping was skeptical.
"But this eldest son may drag the Xue family into the quagmire!" The Queen Mother smiled: "Do you think Xue Zizhan really doesn't care about the world?" It's just Taoguang's obscurity, most of the sons and nephews in the family are adults, and there is a talented person like Xue Xuanzhi, Xue Zizhan is willing to let the Xue family decline? From this point of view, when he resigned and went into hiding, most of the time because he was too deeply involved with the Pei family, he was worried that the heavenly family would be jealous, and he introduced Xue Qian to show his sincerity, but he didn't expect Xue Qian to be so aggressive, and Xue Zizhan was also forced to be helpless, so he planned to give up his eldest son and protect the big family. β
"This old fox!"
"But Fourteen Lang reminded me one thing today, Pan Shun is still the king of the domain, it is impossible for the saint to look through the old case no matter what, the Pei Zheng family is wiped out, even if the generations of in-laws like the Xue family are now in danger and only want to protect themselves, I am afraid that they will no longer have the leisure to rehabilitate Pei Zheng."
The Queen Mother held the lamp and took a sip of warm soup: "Xue Qian is enough, but if the remnants of the Xue family can still be used by me, it will be more beneficial than eradicating it with wasteland...... What was the name of the eyes and ears that were installed in Pei's Mansion back then? β
"The Queen Mother is talking about You San?"
"He's still in Kyoto?"
"Yes, back then, all the servants of Pei Fu were executed, and this You San has changed his face to become a businessman, and he is not afraid that someone will know him."
"This time, you have to use this person...... After the matter is over, send him elsewhere, such a person, it was good to supervise it when he stayed under his nose, but after all, it was a handle...... That's it, don't meddle in these bad things, I'll leave it to Mao Wei to deal with. The Queen Mother put down the teacup, muttered for a moment, and whispered to Wei Yuanping.
Who is Yousan? In fact, He Zhan had been asked out of Yuankang's mouth early, it turned out that this person was the person who reminded Yuankang of the knocking lady of the jade family and Pei Hou's appearance, He Zhan initially thought that the Enhou Mansion contained the old servants of Pei's Mansion back then, but he didn't get anything from touching it, but let him find out a Wei Yuan's ears and eyes, and later heard about the existence of You San from Yuankang, of course, Yuankang didn't know You San's role in Pei Zheng's old case, only knew that this businessman was quite Xie Raoping and Mao Wei were patronized, so he was willing to make friends.
Eleven Niang didn't recognize You San, just because You San was Pei's husband, Eleven Niang didn't pay attention to it at all, but You San had seen Pei Wuniang, and at the beginning, it was this person who stole the so-called documentary evidence into the home of the staff who was killed and killed in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
You San was bought by Xie Raoping early in the morning, and he was also rescued from Pei's Mansion in time, so he was not implicated and executed, and the Queen Mother was not in a hurry to kill him, but at this time, she happened to use it for the last time.
A few days later, Feng Bozhang, who had been refreshed because everything was going well recently, had just returned home after drinking in Pingkangfang, and a staff member asked him to meet mysteriously.
"What? There is a businessman who is drunk, and he actually boasts to you that he is an old servant of Pei Xiangfu, and claims to know the truth about the reverse case back then! Feng Bozhang stroked his beard, snorted wine, and looked at Yu Rang from the corner of his eyes.
I didn't believe it at first, but today I found an excuse to invite Na Yousan, and after some coercion, he relented...... claimed that as long as Xiangguo gave a lot of money, he would tell the truth of the year. β
Feng Bozhang snorted coldly in his heart, but he didn't debunk Yu Rang, but said: "I never thought of investigating Pei Zheng's case, this matter is ...... Anyway, I'll just tell Xue Xiang once to see if he's interested. β
