Chapter 45: Political Enemies
On the other side, seeing that Zhu Yuzhen had not been caught, Cao Song had no choice but to pack up his army and return to the forbidden army camp.
After ordering everyone to go to the court, he came to the front of the temple and bowed down to an old man who was sitting on his seat.
This old man is about seventy or eighty years old, although he is old, but his back is very straight, and he has a majesty, but the forehead that covers the surroundings and a mottled hair let people know that he is already under the erosion of the years, and has begun to show a little old state.
And this person is also Yue Fei's grandson, Yue Lin's son Yue Chen, because after Yue Fei was wronged by Zhaoxue, his father Yue Lin had a progressive merit, and then Yue Chen also got the opportunity to step into the army, and in a series of wars against the Jin State, he also made repeated military exploits, and was awarded the official position from the second grade, and was promoted to the front of the palace commander, so far he became the controller of the "two divisions and three ya", that is, the control of the largest forbidden army in Lin'an City.
Even though the person in front of him had already fallen through the realm of the earth immortals, Cao Song was still afraid, and whispered: "The last general is ashamed of his love for the old man Yue and has never brought that woman back. ”
"Look at you, you must have failed. With a sneer, Yue Chen's face turned cold.
Cao Song suddenly felt that his body was tight, as if there were countless blades added to his body, making him feel as if he was naked in the ice and snow, and quickly explained: "It's not that I'm incompetent, it's really that woman is unexpected, and she doesn't know where to learn martial arts." She accidentally injured her shoulder blade for a while, and the inner house was also severely injured because of this, so she was not successfully captured. ”
"Although there was an accident, if it weren't for your luck, how could you let the other party escape? In that case, then I cut off your military position and abolish your position, are you not convinced?" Yue Chen's face was like black iron, and he didn't accept it at all, and with a wave of his hand, he ordered the attendant next to him to grab Cao Song, and ordered: "Put this person in prison, and don't let the side know." ”
"Old man Yue, boy-"
Cao Song was surprised for a while, and regardless of the fear in his heart, he quickly raised his head, wanting to ask why he was like this.
But when he looked up, he saw a pair of eagle eyes appear in front of him, and a heavy force poured into his brain through the eyes, which immediately made his eyes ooze blood, and he fell to the ground with a bang, like a corpse, taken away by those attendants.
After Cao Song was taken away, he saw another person pacing up.
This person is also the same as Yue Chen, he is seventy or eighty years old, and his appearance is seven or eight points similar to Yue Chen, so he should be a brother.
Seeing him walk into the hall, he looked indifferently at Cao Song being dragged down, but there was no movement, and only after everyone retreated did he complain: "It seems that it has failed." ”
"That's right. I thought that this guy would be able to arrest that little lady Zhu, but who would have expected such a mistake? If others know that I secretly sent someone to rob this girl, I am afraid that it will provoke criticism from the DPRK and China. When the time comes, don't say that you will retreat with all your body, but I'm afraid that even I will have to go to Hainan. Yue Chen shook his head helplessly, looking a little annoyed.
"So you will take action and directly abolish this guy?" Yue Ke's mouth turned up slightly, revealing a bit of viciousness.
"That's right. Otherwise, if this person is allowed to expose the matter between the two of us, then our brothers will not be able to eat and walk around. Yue Chen's eyes widened slightly, just like the lurking poisonous snake, revealing a hideous color, "Don't forget." That Zhu Jun is a descendant of Zhu Xi, and Zheng Qingzhi, Jiang Wanli, Dong Huai and others in the political affairs hall are all in the same vein of science. If they catch this happening, then we will all run away. ”
Yue Ke sighed slightly, and said, "So you came up with this plan, where do you want to capture Zhu Yuzhen and send it to the official's house?"
"That's right. You should also know who is behind this Zhu Yuzhen. If that person stiffens, not to mention that the marriage contract between Zhu Yuzhen and the current prince will be broken, even the Zhu Mansion and Zheng Qingzhi and others will also have to pay the price for this, and then we will secretly instigate them and make the ministers of the DPRK and China attack them. At that time, they will fall into passivity, and they can only be tired of dealing with the strength from the Red Phoenix Army, so we can rest assured. Yue Chen's eyes flashed with ruthlessness, and the straight sect shuddered.
Shaking his head slightly, Yue Ke showed a little annoyance at the moment: "But now that Zhu Yuzhen has not been captured, how should this be? Don't forget, that Zheng Qingzhi, Dong Huai, Jiang Wanli and others are rectifying the forbidden army on the grounds of dealing with Mongolia and the Red Phoenix Army, if they are allowed to continue like this, then the forces we have worked hard to cultivate in this forbidden army will be swept away by them." Don't you forget, how did grandpa die in the first place?"
Since Yue Lin turned over, with the favor and preferential treatment of Song Ningzong at that time, the two brothers entered the imperial court with one article and one martial arts, and after decades of operation, now Yue Ke is already a household servant, a third-grade official, and Yue Chen has also become the commander of the front of the palace, and is a second-grade official.
Both of them are ministers of the DPRK and China, and they can be described as powerful.
"Don't worry. I'm never going to get into my grandfather's situation. Yue Chen clenched his five fingers and replied, his eyes even more resolute.
Yue Ke breathed a sigh of relief and replied: "But you should also know that open guns are easy to dodge and hidden arrows are difficult to defend, if you allow the other party to attack so wantonly, we will inevitably be in danger." In my opinion, only by attacking the east and taking the initiative can the situation be reversed. ”
"What do you mean?" asked Yue Chen.
Yue Ke replied: "A few days ago, at the court meeting, you should also know that although Zheng Qingzhi is known as a clear name, he is widely loved by the ministers of the court. But the official family was suspicious, and they didn't fully trust this person at all, otherwise how could they make Ding Daquan, Ma Tianji and others so arrogant?"
"According to what you said, are you planning to join forces with these two people?" Yue Chen was a little nervous and asked, "But you should know that these two people have a bad reputation, and if you get involved with them, you are afraid that your reputation will be lost." What are you going to do then?"
"It's not a coalition, it's just an attempt to help them. Yue Ke Yingying smiled, and said in a low voice: "You should know that although Zheng Qingzhi is famous, he has a shortcoming, that is, he misses the old feelings. There were four wives alone, and eighteen sons under their knees. And none of these sons, he is not bad, and they all use various channels to arrange them to the court. ”
Yue Chen's eyes lit up, and he smiled unconsciously: "Oh, are you planning to plot against the other side?"
"That's right. The smile on the corner of Yue Ke's mouth became more and more cold, and it made people feel even more creepy: "And you also know that Zheng Qingzhi is now old and has insufficient energy, and only with the help of his wife can he deal with the affairs of the DPRK and China." If there is one or two more accidents in this, do you think he can stay on it?"
