Chapter 230: Checks and Balances

The power of the government and the opposition does not mean lawlessness, and the emperor is not a puppet in his hands, at least on the bright side, he can't disobey the other party's will.

What made Cai Jin feel the most angry was that he didn't know about this matter from beginning to end, Zuo Shichang didn't reveal even a little news to him, thinking of this, Cai Jin's body couldn't help but be full of murderous intent, it seems that some people think that he is old, and the knife in his hand is not as sharp as it used to be.

But don't forget, a knife is always a knife, and even if it's blunt, it can still kill.

What's more, a knife with a dull appearance may also be introverted.

When he gets a benefit, the other party may not be able to think of him, but once the trouble comes, it is the first thing to ask for him, how can there be such a cheap good thing in this world.

But...... This position of the military department is a bit troublesome.

Hu Deyong has always been eyeing him, eager to replace him, the other party has been constantly encroaching on his power above the court over the years, making him feel annoyed, more importantly, His Majesty has always shown support for Hu Deyong, for his fight with Hu Deyong, His Majesty has always liked to see, only the two of them restrain each other, in order to avoid the occurrence of a monopoly.

Cai Jin naturally knew His Majesty's thoughts, but he couldn't show them.

His Majesty did this, just to check and balance, with the help of His Majesty, Hu Deyong's power has increased more than a step compared to before, and Hu Deyong's growing strength is equivalent to a disguised weakening of him.

Thinking of this, Cai Jin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, Zuo Shichang is his person, this is a well-known thing in the court, this time Zuo Shichang has an accident, Hu Deyong will definitely not let go of this golden opportunity, in addition, the other party will even lead the fire to him.

The key to this matter still depends on His Majesty's attitude, but the key is that His Majesty will definitely not support him, once Zuo Shichang is convicted, the position of the secretary of the military department will be vacant.

At that time, His Majesty's choice will definitely be from Hu Deyong's henchmen, choose one to take over the position of Zuo Shichang, even if it is a random choice, Your Majesty's benefits will be stronger than those who choose his camp, so that his years of hard work in the military department will all be in vain.

He also has another choice, that is, to follow His Majesty's decision, after the arrival of the new military department Shangshu, he will use some coercion and temptation to receive it into his own camp, but in doing so, there is still a big hidden danger, not to mention whether it is successful or not, just capricious, he does not dare to reuse the other party.

Thinking of this, Cai Jin only felt that he was a little angry, this feeling was as if he was being led by someone else's nose, Zuo Shichang was extremely hateful.

All in all, the current situation is very unfavorable for him.

However, what should be faced still has to be faced after all, and after receiving the summons from His Majesty, Cai Jin changed into an official uniform.

Because of his serious illness, he had not been to court for some time.

At this moment, a man in a Taoist robe suddenly appeared in front of him.

"My lord, your current body is not conducive to moving around. ”

"It's okay, with the treatment of Dao Chang these days, I feel that my body is better than ever, this feeling has not been had for more than ten years, but it's a pity that the medicine has an accident in the middle, otherwise, maybe I can return to the state I was young now. When Cai Jin mentioned the medicine introduction, his face couldn't help but show a sad expression.

According to what the Taoist said, if there is no medicine lead, then his current state, can not last long, when his limit is approaching, the Taoist saves him in danger, although he is still wary of this person, but more is actually grateful.

What's more, the reason why the other party is helping is not because of no desire or demand.

"It's still too late, and when you find the medicine, it's time for adults to prolong their lives. The man smiled, and stopped stopping it, just more than a reminder.

Cai Jin was about to run out of oil, but he used spiritual objects and secret techniques to restore a little vitality to his internal organs, and changed his life against the sky, although it would not be able to prolong his life, but it was not a problem to live for a few more months.

A few months is enough.

If it was changed to a few hundred years ago, of course he didn't dare to provoke the underworld, birth, old age, sickness and death are the way of heaven, if he changed his life against the sky, although it would not damage his own fortune, but it was bound to be targeted by the underworld, in the heaven and earth, but all the creatures in the Three Realms and Five Elements, their names are recorded in the book of life and death, for these changes in Cai Jin's body, naturally they can't hide from those yin gods in the underworld.

However, this time is different from the past, the underworld is no longer the underworld of hundreds of years ago, after losing the deterrent power of the heavenly court, the underworld has rarely taken care of these things in the world.

When Cai Jin came to the palace gate, many officials came up to say hello, and soon more than a dozen officials surrounded him, all of whom were his henchmen, and they did not rush in when they came to the palace gate.

They had already heard about Chief Zuo's matter, and the impact of this incident on them was also very great, so they waited for Cai Jin to come to discuss countermeasures.

"Wait and see. Cai Jin's tone was flat, which made the dozen or so people around him stunned, and they were a little confused, should they help Zuo Shichang or not?

No matter what, anyway, the adults told them to wait and see what happened, and to be quiet is not moving, and when they reached the court, they were silent, and when the adults made a statement, it was not too late for them to determine the direction.

After the civil and military officials arrived, Lin Ying ignored the whispers of the civil and military officials, and went straight to the point: "Just last night, a heinous thing happened, I think everyone already knows something, but under the ironclad evidence, Zuo Shichang not only did not repent, but intended to deny, Lord Cai, you say, what do you think of this matter?"

Cai Jin's face was as usual, he took a step forward, bowed and said: "Back to Your Majesty, robbing the official mansion should be sentenced to death, at the time of the national disaster, the intention to loot the disaster relief food is even more criminal, but whether this matter was done by Zuo Shichang is still unknown, perhaps, there is another hidden meaning in this matter?"

"Okay, if you want evidence, then I will give you evidence, Huang Aiqing, the ins and outs of this matter, you will tell everyone. Lin Ying said in a deep voice.

He had already roughly understood the ins and outs of this matter before, and this was not something that Cai Jin could cover up, but I don't know if Cai Jin could still say what Fang Cai said after hearing the ins and outs?
