Lin'an City!

"What did you say?"

Hearing what Chen Yizhong said, Wu Qian was a little surprised.

Chen Yizhong replied in a low voice: "Prime Minister Wu, according to my news, that Gundam has recently had a conflict with Xia Gui!"

"Really?" Wu Qian asked.

Chen Yizhong replied quite affirmatively: "This matter is absolutely true, and I will never dare to have the slightest falsehood." This is the ins and outs of the whole thing. As he spoke, he gave Wu Qian a piece of letterhead in his hand.

"Xia Gui and Gundam, you must know that this is an important time for the Northern Expedition, why did the two of them suddenly have these problems?" Wu Qian had doubts, took the letterhead presented by Chen Yizhong, and then unfolded it.

After sweeping the content above, Wu Qian understood it clearly, and said with a chuckle: "Is this the case?"

"Exactly!" Chen Yizhong continued to ask: "It's just the prime minister, what should I do next?"

"How? What do you think you should say?" Wu Qian fell silent and began to think about the reason, and his heart couldn't help but pass over Najia's face.

After all, this Northern Expedition was caused by this person, and it is difficult for Jia to escape the blame for this kind of thing!

Chen Yizhong replied: "According to Xia Gui and Gao Gao, it should be because of the food problem. In that case, we only need to grasp the food issue, and I think Your Majesty will naturally make up his mind to suspend the Northern Expedition. ”

"That's right. And if this Northern Expedition is suspended, then Jia Rudao will definitely be to blame. At that time, the Northern Expedition failed, and presumably he will not be able to continue to gain a foothold in the DPRK. Wu Qian smiled slightly.

For Jia Rudao, Wu Qian already regarded him as a fierce opponent, and he was willing to try any means that could knock down the other party.

Chen Yizhong replied: "If this is the case, then Gundam can't fall, otherwise it won't be able to render the tragic situation of the Northern Expedition." Only by highlighting that the Northern Expedition has run out of oil can we force His Majesty to suspend the Northern Expedition. ”

"Good. Then do as you say!" Wu Qian said with a smile.

A few days later, as Chen Yi said, the matter of Gundam and Xia Gui also came to the court as scheduled.

Hearing the news, Zhao Yun was also furious, and immediately summoned many courtiers to discuss the matter.

"You Aiqing must have already known about the frontline, in that case, then ask the ranks, what is your opinion on this matter?"

is still sitting on the dragon chair, now Zhao Yun is already declining, looking at the ministers below all the expressions as usual, I know that these ministers are afraid that they have already known the news, and they should have already formulated countermeasures in their hearts.

As the emperor, he was the last to learn the news, and Zhao Yun felt like an insect trapped in a net, and there was no possibility of escape.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the Gundam should be captured immediately to set the record straight. ”

Immediately one of the ministers came out and shouted.

Wu Qian fixed his eyes, but knew that the other party was the right attendant of the ministry, Liumengyan.

This Liumengyan has always been in the name of greed for power, although he has the name of the champion, but he is a person who climbs power and attaches power, because he saw that Jia Yidao was favored by the official family, in order to consolidate his power, so he walked quite close to Jia Yidao, Dong Songchen and others, and the other party would have such a move, which was also within Wu Qian's prediction.

Before Zhao Yun could express his opinion, Wu Qian chuckled and interjected: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks it's inappropriate!"

"Oh, I don't know why Aiqing is against it?" Zhao Yun asked.

Wu Qian replied: "As far as the minister knows, the reason why that Gundam grabbed food was really because of the lack of food in his army, and in order to ensure that the soldiers would not starve, they had to make this decision!"

Just as Wu Qian expected, all the ministers also walked out together, and they all persuaded one after another.

"That Gao Gao, General Gao, has been an official for 30 years, and he has made many meritorious deeds, which can be described as brave and loyal. If you punish rashly, I'm afraid that it will damage morale. ”

"Presumably someone framed it, otherwise he would never have done such a thing!"

"If it's for food, even if you do it, it's understandable. ”

When everyone said something, Zhao Yun felt a little disgusted when he heard it, and he felt a little rebellious, and said: "Although this is the case, but he did this kind of thing, if I don't make a punishment, it is unreasonable." Otherwise, how else can I govern the world?"

Wu Qian was a little anxious, and hurriedly persuaded: "But Your Majesty." Do you also know that if it weren't for food, General Gao would definitely not have made such a mistake?"

"That's just as well!" Zhao Yun was thoughtful.

He is not the emperor who does not eat minced meat, so he naturally knows the importance of food to the army, and his heart has softened, and he intends to let it go.

However, at this time, Na Liumengyan said, "Your Majesty." You know that there is a shortage of food in the army, but do you know that it is because of the lack of food?"

"Oh? Zhao Yun made a thoughtful look, although there was no turmoil in his heart.

Wu Qian's heart tightened, and he felt a little bad: "This guy didn't deny it, what kind of attention is this?" Then I heard Na Liumengyan say: "According to the news that the minister has learned, that Li Zengbo once sent tens of thousands of stones of grain to the Chifeng Army, how can there be a shortage of food on the front line in such an act?"

"What?"

Zhao Yun was shocked, he had always cared about this Red Phoenix Army, but now after hearing the news, he was naturally furious, and then he took a deep breath and asked, "Is this serious?"

"Liushilang, you should know what kind of crime it is to slander the ministers of the DPRK. Wu Qianyu threatened.

"Of course I do. But if it's true, it's a different story!" Liu's chin was slightly raised, and he looked at Wu Qian with a little provocation, and said, "Qiqi." All the things about Li Zengbo are in these account books. ”

"Then bring it in. ”

Zhao Yun's expression was indifferent, and people couldn't see what kind of mood he was in.

Wu Qian was also nervous, looking at the account book.

And the waiter also remembered the scene when he met Jia Yidao a few days ago.

——————

On that day, he was resting in his room, and because he had just learned the news, he could not rest in peace, and he was walking around the courtyard.

"Knock knock!"

There was a knock on the door, which made Liu Mengyan startled, and he opened his mouth to ask, "Who is it?"

"It's me!"

As the door was pushed open, a familiar figure also appeared in front of Li Qi.

"Is it you? Why are you here? No wonder something so important is happening on the front line! If you hadn't left, how would Gundam have done it?" Liushilang reproached, just because the person in front of him was Jia Yidao.

Jia Rudao complained: "So what? Things have already happened, will it be useful to complain?"

"But do you know that because you're gone, we're all going to be done. Got it?"

Liumengyan walked around like an ant on a hot pot.

"You also know that because of the Gundam, the shortage of food and grass on the front line will definitely not be able to continue to cover up. When the time comes, the officials will investigate it, and we won't be able to escape the involvement at that time!

It seems that in Liu Mengyan's words, as long as this matter is stabbed in front of Zhao Yun, they will all wait to be beheaded.

Jia seemed to be unimpressed, but said: "What does it matter? It's just a grab, why are you in a hurry!"

"Why doesn't it matter? It's a big sin. Do you want to go with me to southern Fujian? It is full of miasma, it is a barbarian land, and I don't want to go. Liu Mengyan retorted.

Jia Rudao sneered: "Of course I don't want to go." It's just that you have to do what I tell you to do, you know?"

"Oh, don't you have a way?" Liu Mengyan asked.

Jia Rudao looked proud: "This is nature. Then he asked someone to take an account book and said, "When the time comes, you only need to show this account book to the official family, and that's it." ”

"Is it possible with just one account book?" Liumengyan was confused.

Jia Rudao: "This is not an ordinary account book, but an account book recorded by Li Zengbo when he was the secretary of the household department. And above, it records the grain and grass trade between him and the Red Phoenix Army!"

"Grain and grass trading?" Liu Mengyan suddenly realized and laughed.

Jia Rudao smiled: "That's right. Before the Chifeng Army's Northern Expedition, Li Zengbo used to buy a large amount of arms from the Chifeng Army with grain, which is clearly recorded on this. Of course, you also know what happened after that, because the Red Phoenix Army suddenly went on a northern expedition, all the weapons that should have been transported were detained, and they have not been sent until now. ”

"So that's it?"

Hearing this, Liumengyan became happy.

"In that case, then we can plant the problem of food shortage on each other?"

"That's right. That's it! As long as the official family sees this account book, they will definitely have doubts about the other party. When the time comes, we can also buy a little time. Of course, I want you to do one more thing!" Jia Rudao instructed.

Liu Mengyan's heart tightened, and he asked in a low voice, "What is the matter?"

"That is, so that I can return to Lin'an. After all, even though I'm already in Lin'an, if there's no reason to delay, it's hard to stay here, isn't it?" Jia Rudao replied.

Liu Mengyan closed his head and replied: "Don't worry, I will definitely help you complete this matter." ”

He also understands that at the moment, Wu Qian is pressing step by step, not only forcing Zhao Yun to depose the prince, but even planning to suspend the Northern Expedition, and use this to drive Jia Yidao out of the court.

In order to avoid this outcome, he had no choice but to take a risk.

——————

In the court.

Zhao Yun held the account book in his hand, his face became more and more ugly, his eyes swept over Wu Qian, and shouted: "Wu Qian, tell me if this is true?"

If it was just food for weapons, he didn't have a problem, but the food was delivered, but the weapons had not yet been received. This made Zhao Yun unacceptable, and even began to wonder if Li Zengbo planned to fund the Red Phoenix Army in this way.

"Your Majesty, I-"

Wu Qian was speechless for a while, although he wanted to defend himself, but he couldn't say anything.

He knew this matter well, because in order to save Li Zengbo's face, he kept holding on to it, but he didn't expect to be poked out by Liumengyan.

Liu Mengyan took advantage of the situation and said: "If this is not the case, how can the front line fall into the predicament of lack of food?"

Although this is the case, because of the lack of food, the fact that General Gao robbed the grain is also conclusive. Mu Zicai was a little angry and opened his mouth to argue.

Liu Mengyan snorted lightly and said disdainfully, "Of course I know." But don't forget, that Gundam also violated military orders, if we don't punish them, how can we show the military discipline of our dynasty? And if every general follows suit, then how can we still fight?"

A trace of anger appeared on Mu Zicai's face, and although he wanted to continue to argue, he was stopped by Chen Yizhong next to him, shaking his head and signaling him not to speak.

Wu Qian shouted: "Even so, it is also a fact that there is a shortage of food on the front line. And Najia seems to be a person from the Northern Expedition, and he can't escape the involvement of such a thing. ”

"Sure enough, did you finally reveal your purpose?"

Liu Mengyan sneered in his heart, and secretly said that this was indeed the case, and then said: "But just based on a word in the official document, you want to conclude that this matter is Prime Minister Jia's fault, isn't it too vain? Or maybe you just wanted to stop the Northern Expedition, so you made this kind of thing." ”

Finding that his thoughts were revealed by the other party, Wu Qian was also nervous, and explained: "What the old minister does is for me to go to the country, and there is no selfishness." ”

"Old Prime Minister Wu, I believe that you are loyal, but you might as well listen to what others have to say. After all, if you listen to both, you will be clear, and if you listen partially, you will be dark. Isn't it?" Zhao Yun opened his mouth and said, which also made Wu Qian speechless, so he had to retreat.

That Liumengyan, Wu Qian is naturally not afraid, but the officials have already spoken, and of course he is not good at saying anything.

"To be honest, we don't understand much about the frontline, so it's better to send Jia Nidao into the capital and ask the truth?" Liu Mengyan was overjoyed in his heart, and put forward his own suggestion again.

Zhao Yun felt a little strange and asked in a low voice: "Is Jia Yidao? But if he leaves the front line, what about the Northern Expedition?"

"Propose to let Jia Rudao come back, what is this guy thinking?"

Wu Qian felt strange and glanced sideways at Liumengyan, who kept his head down and didn't raise his head, so naturally he couldn't look at the other party's face.

"I thought it should be the same. ”

At this time, Chen Yizhong also opened his mouth to complain.

Mu Zicai felt strange and asked in a low voice, "Chen Yizhong, what's wrong with you?" Suddenly, he also felt at a loss, and he didn't know what Chen Yizhong was paying attention to.

Chen Yizhong replied in a low voice: "You also know that Najia seems to be far away in the sky and holds great power in the army, even if we want to deal with him, but the whip is out of reach, I am afraid that there will be another incident." So I think it's better to transfer him to Beijing, so that it will be easier for us to deal with him. ”

"Okay. Then do what you say. Mu Zicai stopped persuading and quietly looked at Zhao Yun's expression.

Wu Qian also noticed the hidden danger in this regard, so he opened his mouth and complained: "The minister thinks it should be the same. You might as well send Jia Rudao into the capital and ask him what the hell is going on!"

"Okay, then follow what you Aiqing said. Zhao Yun saw that both sides had no opinions, so he announced his will.
