Chapter 337: Cause and Effect
Qi Rong was angry at the moment, and when he couldn't see the Empress Dowager Xuan, he went to Xiangguo's Mansion to find Wei Ran, and when he arrived at Xiangguo's Mansion, he didn't know that Wei Ran was left in the apse by King Qin Zhao!
Then seeing Gao Lingjun, the king of Jingyang, who also asked to see the queen mother to no avail, Qi Rong and the others suddenly had a very bad premonition. The apse was discussed, and King Qin Zhao excluded them!
"Why is Brother Wang like this?" Jingyang Jun said, feeling that everything happened too suddenly, and there was no warning at all.
Qi Rong faintly felt in his heart that it was not related to the matter he discussed with the Queen Mother a few days ago.
The three of them decided to go to Xiangguo's Mansion to find Wei Ran later, and went home worried first.
At this time, there were only King Qin Zhao and Wei Ran in the apse. On King Zhao's desk were some bamboo slips, which clearly listed the crimes committed by Jingyang Jun and Gao Lingjun and their clansmen.
"There are also negligent people in the minister's family, the minister has thoroughly investigated, and they are all listed above, and the king is also asked to deal with it according to the law!" Wei Ran looked at King Qin Zhao's face with an ugly face, and said to King Qin Zhao respectfully.
King Qin Zhao thought for a long time, finally looked at Wei Ran, and said with a smile:
"Xiangbang doesn't have to blame himself too much, Xiangbang is busy with state affairs all day long, and he is worried about Daqin, and it is possible to neglect his family, which is not a big deal, so there is no need to make everyone know. Xiangbang's family, Xiangbang just teach it in private. ”
When Wei Ran heard this, he hurriedly shouted thanks to the king. The meaning of King Qin Zhao's words was to let Wei Ran deal with his own people well, stop making any more mistakes, and he would not pursue the rest. This is undoubtedly a way to save all of Wei Ran's face.
As for the remaining Jingyang Jun and Gao Ling Jun, King Qin Zhao's face was ugly, and after thinking for a while, his face finally calmed down, and said:
"Zhao Lian is quite a general, invincible all the way, but there is not much left in Qi, I am afraid that Lian Po will return to the dynasty in the future. After all, Zhao was a fierce rival of Qin in the east. The capital is prepared, although the soldiers of the Qin State have unloaded their armor, but the armament manufacturing cannot stop.
Jingyang Jun and Gao Lingjun are really rich now, even the treasury of Great Qin is not as full as theirs, so let them donate some to strengthen Great Qin's armaments. ”
King Qin Zhao threw the bamboo slips aside, and also decided how to deal with Ying Fu and Ying Kui.
As for Mi Rong. King Qin Zhao didn't say anything, he wanted to see what Qi Rong would do after knowing his attitude towards Jingyang Jun Gao Lingjun!
Wei Ran breathed a sigh of relief, exited the apse, and returned to his Xiangguo Mansion.
After a while, someone under his command came to secretly report to him that King Qin Zhao had passed on Jingyang Jun Gao Lingjun to enter the palace. It is said that after the two kings entered the palace, the king dismissed all the palace people around, and then the palace came from the king of Qin Zhao's scolding, although the people outside could not hear the specific content, but Jingyang Jun Gao Lingjun must have been scolded for a long time.
Two hours later, Jingyang Jun Gao Lingjun left the palace, his face was like ashes, and then they each returned to their homes to complain of illness, announcing that they would not see any more guests in a short time!
The people in Xianyang City slowly heard about this news, and everyone immediately realized what was going on, and the people who had tried their best to cling to the "Four Guis" in the past were silent for a while, and they didn't even dare to hold ordinary gatherings.
After another three or five days, the upper echelons of Xianyang, who were a little overwhelmed by the prestige of King Qin Zhao, finally felt a little relieved, and Mi Rong was also very low-key these days, not only seriously began to organize the wedding ceremony between Gan Mi and Gongzizhu, but also donated a lot of money to the treasury to store grain and build weapons and armor and so on.
Also who donated a lot of money came out of Jingyangjun and Gao Lingjun. Not only that, but many of these two monarchs were punished, and it is reported that some of their relatives were even beaten to death.
But no matter what, the ministers felt that King Qin Zhao's royal authority was heavier, and everyone was more energetic when they were in court affairs and handling their duties, and no one dared to make mistakes again.
On this day, Jiang Ruoyang was busy in Xiangguo Mansion until late, and it was also because there were suddenly a lot of "donations" recently, so Jiang Ruoyang's work suddenly increased a lot, and it was very laborious to check the accounts.
Wei Ran, as a Xiangbang, has a heavy position, so he is naturally busy until late, and as soon as he saw the sky, Wei Ran said to Jiang Ruoyang:
"It's too late, Situ Yang stays, let's have a light meal."
It's quite late, but it's actually more than eight o'clock in the evening, but in this era, it's really the time when many people go to bed.
When Jiang Ruoyang heard this, he refused, but Wei Ran opened his mouth to keep it, and Jiang Ruoyang agreed with kindness.
When the next person ate and drank, Wei Ran waved his hand, sent everyone back, mentioned the wine lord, and said to Jiang Ruoyang:
"Benxiang has been up and down in the court of Qin for many years, but as far as he speculates about Junxin, he is not as good as Situ, come, Benxiang respects you."
"Don't dare, don't dare, Xiangbang is too polite. The so-called authorities are fans, Jiang is just a little reminder. ”
Wei Ran shook his head:
"No, if it weren't for Ling Lang's timely delivery of the letter, this would not be the case today. I can't say that Wei is going to be the same as Yingfu Yingkui, and he is closed to thank the guests. ”
Only then did the audience know that on the night when the Jiang family played poker, Jiang Chiyu later sent a letter to Wei Ran! So the audience was curious about the content of the letter.
"Xiangbang is different from the other monarchs, Xiangbang has worked hard for Daqin, as long as the king believes that Xiangbang's original intention remains the same, many things, the king will not be counted."
"Hmm. The matter of Taoyi is really not considered by the prime minister, but fortunately you reminded me in time. Wei Ran said, "In short, I still have to thank Situ Yang!" ”
After Jiang Anrao's explanation, the audience finally sorted out the cause and effect.
It turned out that after Jiang Anrao and Bai Qi said that, the Jiang family saw Jin Shou enter the palace again at night, and after some discussion, they took advantage of the darkness to ask Jiang Chiyu to send a letter to Wei Ran.
The content is still to persuade Wei Ran, before King Qin Zhao is really angry and slaps the table against him, he will cut off his tail to survive.
First of all, because Wei Ran has the highest status and wants to protect himself, he can't be too close to the Queen Mother and others by going to the same place. Moreover, Wei Ran had already sent someone to take down the Tao of the Song Kingdom, and with the wealth of Tao, it was a place that no one in the countries coveted.
Wei Ran originally planned to wait for Tao to take Tao as his fiefdom. But Jiang Ruoyang persuaded him to give up this plan, Tao, it must be handed over to King Qin Zhao!
Originally, Wei Ran couldn't make up his mind, but after a coincidence, the Queen Mother called Jiang Anrao over and gave Jiang Anrao a lecture. Jiang Anrao took advantage of the topic to play, and came to Xiangguo's mansion. Jiang Ruoyang cooperated with his daughter, and the father and daughter sang a big drama in front of Wei Ran.
Jiang Ruoyang: The opportunities have been created in front of you, Xiangbang, what are you waiting for?
Wei Ran hesitated for a long time, and finally made up his mind and entered the palace.
