Rong Zhan glanced at Wang Ge Lao, and was not very happy in his heart, this old guy's reaction was fast. Fang Cai also helped Zhao Jing to solve problems for himself, and now he has the face of a loyal minister and a filial son. Such people are hateful and capricious. But to be honest, if it weren't for this heart, it would be really difficult to survive to this position in the Great Chu Dynasty.

Wang Ge Lao suddenly changed his words and scolded Zhao Jing in a daze. When he collected 3,000 taels of silver tickets from himself last night, he patted his chest and promised to help him, why did the Queen Mother just say a few words, and he turned his gun to be his enemy?

Wang Ge Lao looked at Zhao Jing's surprised expression, and he was also a little weak-hearted, he had a short mouth and a soft hand, not to mention that Zhao Jing was Zhao Shangshu's son, and Zhao Shangshu had a good relationship with him before his death. It is really contrary to benevolence and righteousness for an uncle to push out his nephew to condemn his guilt like this. But in this situation, either he dies or dies himself. Wang Ge Lao swallowed his saliva, let's die, he will be able to return to his hometown immediately, and he will have a reputation as an important minister of the two dynasties, but he can't make a mistake at this time.

"Uncle Wang, Uncle Wang, you have to say something for me?" Zhao Jing's two eyebrows were uneven, as if he had been greatly wronged.

Wang Ge Lao was also unable to protect himself at this moment, so he had to turn around and kneel down to Rong Zhan, and said: "Your Majesty forgives your sins, the old minister is bent on purging the Qing Dynasty and wants to eradicate the traitor, but he didn't expect to miss it for a while, and he was bewitched by the traitor, and the old minister deserves to die, so I ask Your Majesty for mercy." ”

Zhao Jing saw that Wang Ge Lao had defected, and the last line of defense in his heart collapsed in an instant, he raised his hand, grabbed Wang Ge Lao's clothes, and said: "The surname Wang, in vain, you are in the same dynasty as my father, you are a wall grass, you are quite old, you are shameless, what are you!"

The Queen Mother frowned and shouted: "The palace is out of order, what kind of system is it, and you still don't take him down?!"

Rong Run raised his hand, and the guards on both sides suddenly rushed up, ripped Zhao Jing away, and pressed him to the ground.

Wang Ge Lao squeezed the old eyes, made two tears, and cried: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, the old minister is confused! I was bewitched by this thief, but the old minister is also sincere, and there is no second heart, Your Majesty!"

Rong Zhan glanced at Wang Ge Lao and did not say anything. Although Wang Ge Lao, a person who sees the wind and rudder is extremely hateful, after all, he is an important minister of the first emperor, and he is about to reach the age of returning to his hometown, to be honest, if there is no major crime, Rong Zhan will not easily move him, even if there is a big crime, he must try his best to suppress the matter. After all, when dealing with the old ministers of the first emperor, we still have to take into account the face of the first emperor. An old minister who has been with the first emperor for decades suddenly committed a major crime and was about to be beheaded, doesn't this mean that the first emperor did not know how to use people?

Rong Zhan closed his eyes lightly, waved his hand, and motioned for Wang Ge Lao to step down.

Seeing that Rong Zhan didn't mean to dispose of him, Wang Ge Lao felt a little proud in his heart.

The Queen Mother glanced at Zhao Jing, and Zhao Kezhen's face of coercion and temptation appeared in front of her, and she was resentful in her heart. The Zhao family, every good thing. According to her temperament, she really wants to make Zhao Kezhen's crime public, but this time, wouldn't she also put herself in?

The dignified Queen Mother, who is controlled by others, and does some stupid things that have no conscience, will not be laughed at and killed? In the future, how will the Queen Mother's face remain? Will she still be able to gain a foothold in this palace?

"Emperor, such chaotic ministers and thieves, everyone will be punished! According to the mourners, the new accounts and the old accounts will be counted together. ”

Rong Zhan glanced at the Queen Mother, her old man wanted to kill the Zhao family completely? What about Zhao Kezhen? What did the Queen Mother think about in her heart? Rong Zhan couldn't figure it out for a while, so she needed to ask her old man clearly.

"Zhao Jing framed the imperial concubine, acted despicably, insulted the dynasty, and after the crime was exposed, he still made a big move in the palace of diligence, lost his honor in front of the palace, and ignored the laws of the country. Therefore, Zhao Jing was dismissed from his post and investigated, and all the fields and manors in the Zhao Mansion and the scriptures were all sealed. The family members of the Zhao Mansion will all be handed over to the Dali Temple for supervision, and they will be disposed of after seeing the sincerity of repentance. ”

Rong Zhan said, and turned to the Queen Mother and asked, "I don't know if the son is so disposed of, is the Queen Mother satisfied?"

The Queen Mother glanced at Zhao Jing and forcibly endured the resentment in her heart, but her face was unfazed: "This is a matter in the court, and it is inconvenient for the Queen Mother to say more." It's okay how the emperor disposes of it, just a little. Be fair and strict, and don't wronged the future queen. ”

Future ...... Rong Zhan thought he had heard it wrong, just half a month ago, the Queen Mother was still crying and shouting that she wanted to make Zhao Kezhen the queen, why did she suddenly change her mind today? He glanced at the jade steps, and Rong Run also looked at him with joy on his face. Rong Zhan was sure that he had heard correctly, and looked at Mother Zhong, but Mother Zhong smiled at herself.

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty heard the words of the future queen, and secretly had a score in their hearts, it seems that the queen mother and the emperor are of the same mind, and they want to win over the Donglin Shangguan Mansion and the Chu royal family as backers. In the future, whoever is dominant in this court will have a brighter heart, don't be mistaken.

Zhao Jing is different, all he has to do is dismiss and investigate, the emperor is ready to kill him?

Two court guards pressed his arm, nearly breaking his shoulder. He stood still and shouted: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, the villain has been wronged! Wang Ge Lao, Wang Ge Lao, you intercede for me!"

Zhao Jing stood still, but clearly saw the smugness on Wang Ge's old face. Zhao Jing's anger suddenly sprang up, this is using me as a monkey? He accepted 3,000 taels of silver from me, but he didn't do anything for me, and at the end of the day, he would fall into the well and pit me severely. No one can bear this tone, let alone Zhao Jing, who is not very smart.

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, I want to denounce!" Zhao Jing pulled his neck and howled.

Except for Wang Ge Lao, all the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty turned their heads to see "killing pigs". In fact, everyone is also curious, who else is going to report Zhao Jing when he dies.

"Wang Ge Lao, you took me three thousand taels of silver, and you fucking fell into the well, you old turtle! You don't want to die!" Zhao Jing struggled and scolded while pulling his neck.

Rong Zhan frowned, he had already seen that there was no innocence between Wang Ge Lao and Zhao Jing, and he wanted to cover it up for Wang Ge Lao, but he didn't expect that this matter would still be shaken out by Zhao Jing.

Zhen Guogong and Rong Run glanced at each other and raised their eyebrows. This Zhao Jing is really not smart enough, the emperor's intention to protect Wang Ge Lao is already so obvious, he still has to force the matter of Wang Ge Lao to come out. Isn't this forcing the emperor to deal with Wang Ge Lao? Originally, Zhao Jing's charges could not be cleared away, and if he took the opportunity to create some problems for the emperor, wouldn't the emperor be even more annoyed with him? I am afraid that it will be difficult for him to come out of Dali Temple alive again.

Wang Ge Lao fell to his knees with a puff: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, the old minister has been wronged! This chaotic minister and thief is crazy, he wants to bite back! Your Majesty, the Queen Mother wants to make the decision for the old minister!"

The queen mother didn't want to ask more about Wang Ge's old affairs, so Chong Zhong's mother stretched out her hand and said, "The mourning family is also tired, and the emperor will handle the rest of the matter." Mother Zhong, help the mourning family to return to the palace. ”

Sending the Queen Mother away, Rong Zhan stared indifferently at Wang Ge Lao for a while, this Wang Ge Lao was really hateful, just now when he helped Zhao Jing to attack him, Rong Zhan really wanted to kill him immediately. But now that the impulse has passed, Rong Zhan has to calm down and think about the face of the first emperor.

Is the face of the first emperor important, or is it more important to eliminate the evil?

In fact, in Wang Ge's life, except for sitting on the wall, there is really no big crime. It's not too much to say he's greedy. The people who can stand in the Qinzheng Palace, except for himself and Rong Run, I am afraid that there are really few people with clean hands, and even the old man of Zhenguo Gong Chu is not much better.

But just let him go, Rong Zhan always felt that he had no place to spill his evil breath in his heart.

"I still remember that the first emperor commented on Wang Ge Lao, saying that Wang Ge Lao was honest and honest, and also said that the old Ge Lao was thoughtful and easy to maneuver between the characters. Rong Zhan paused, looked at Wang Ge Lao's reaction, and said: "Now, Wang Ge Lao is old, and it seems that he is not as thoughtful as the first emperor said. Since Wang Ge Lao is powerless, I don't think it is better to allow Wang Ge to return to his hometown, so that he can live in his old age. ”

Wang Ge was still worried about whether Rong Zhan would take the opportunity to take revenge on him, but now it seems that Rong Zhan is quite lenient with him.

Rong Zhan changed his words and said indifferently: "I originally thought that Wang Ge Lao was an important minister of the first emperor, and if you return to the countryside, I will have to give you a set of courtyards with birds and flowers, so that you can be regarded as loving the heart of loyal ministers." Let Wang Ge Lao stroll in the courtyard every day, tending to the flowers and plants. But now it seems that no matter how beautiful the garden I give you, I am afraid that I will not be able to stop the spread of the grass on the wall. That's it, don't add these troubles to the old disciples of Wang Ge. ”

Rong Zhan said the three words of the wall grass very seriously, so that everyone could understand that Rong Zhan was scolding him.

Wang Ge Lao was also stunned, and he couldn't slow down for a long time.

"Your Majesty, Zhao Jing was framing the old minister just now! Please ask Your Majesty to make the decision for the old minister!" Wang Ge Lao knelt down and kowtowed to Rong Zhan.

Rong Zhanyang raised his hand and looked at Wang Ge Lao indifferently: "I know, I know that Zhao Jing is framing Ge Lao." I didn't dwell on it, did I?"

Rong Zhan swept his eyes down and said, "If you continue to investigate, I'm afraid that I don't know what kind of sesame seeds and rotten grains will be involved, and everyone will be dirty." ”

Wang Ge Lao looked at Rong Zhan in disdain, only to see him wave his hand and say: "Reward Wang Ge Lao with three thousand taels of silver, as the expense after returning home." ”

Three thousand taels? Wang Ge Lao turned his face to look at the box of silver. The emperor's move was so ruthless that he had already returned to his hometown, and he had not forgotten to beat himself? Three thousand taels of silver, this was because he would not be able to feel at ease until he died! If Zhao Jing was really killed by the emperor, wouldn't he have the blood of this nephew on his own hands?

Wang Ge Lao Chong Rong Zhan knelt down and bowed nine times, hung his head silently, and withdrew from the Qinzheng Palace. The five inner prisoners behind him held the silver and silently followed him. Wang Ge Lao looked back and saw the upturned cornices of the Qinzheng Palace, which was the direction he pointed to when he first went to court.

Rong Zhan looked at Wang Ge Lao's back, and saw the smell of walking in a hurry. Slowly sat down, a little heavy on himself.
