"Prime Minister." The Holy Majesty did not ask him to get up, but instead looked at a book while holding up a teacup and asked, "What do you think about this matter?"
What the Holy Majesty asked was about the prince going to the palace.
Although it was agreed by the two, but now that the prince has not come back, the Holy One is a little worried.
It happened that the prime minister also came over, and the Holy Majesty just happened to ask, and it was also a chat with someone.
The prime minister "Chen" groaned a few times, dragging out the ending, but he just didn't speak, as if he was thinking with his head down.
After Sheng finished drinking a cup of tea, he still lowered his head slightly, and could only see the thoughtful expression on his face.
Seeing this, the Holy Majesty smiled and put down the teacup, "There are no outsiders here, only you and my monarch and ministers. If there is anything you want to say, just say it."
"Your Majesty" the prime minister heard that his brother-in-law had to ask him to say something, and he knew for a while that he couldn't evade it, and he couldn't pretend to be confused. He had to think twice before opening his mouth carefully,
"The minister thought that the prince's trip was a good thing, and he was responsible for it. The prince also loosened his mouth, but he clearly rewarded and punished him, and demoted Sun Wenshu and others as envoys."
"After the prince went back, he didn't come to the palace first, but went to your mansion first?" The Holy Majesty interrupted, looking at the prime minister who smiled dryly for a moment, "If I guessed correctly, when the prince leaves, you will come to the palace later. gone?"
"Your Majesty came here quietly, without disturbing anyone." The prime minister looked solemn, and then said vaguely: "Your Majesty guessed that the prince came to the mansion of the minister first based on the few words of the minister. Your Majesty really has a clear insight. It seems that the minister You can't hide anything from Sheng Ting"
"You!" The Holy Majesty shook his head and laughed when he heard that his son was safe, "It seems that my junior brother has blamed the matter on you. This time it is indeed because of my decision that the prime minister accepted the prince's favor." blame."
In the Holy Majesty's conjecture, even if you don't know what happened before and after.
But according to the character of his junior, plus the cause and effect of this matter.
It can be described in this way, the prince who came out of the palace before is actually a returning cannonball belonging to the prince.
Where the crown prince goes first is whoever his junior brother beats up, and whoever blames it on him.
Now, it was the prime minister who was beaten.
With the personality of the younger brother, the Holy One feels that this matter should not be left alone.
Of course, the matter of Sun Wenshu and others is not counted here.
What is counted now is their family affairs.
Thinking of this, the Holy Majesty looked at the prime minister with a wry smile, "This junior brother of mine has always been unprofitable. What did he ask you to do for him now? Why did he let him go so easily?"
"The lord said" the prime minister lowered his voice, a little confused: "It is said that the minister owes him a favor, and it is not easy to repay the favor of the lord. At that time, I hope that your majesty will help the minister for the sake of the minister's sword this time." "
"My junior brother's favor is really not easy to repay." His Majesty heard that his junior brother had really said something, he immediately stood up, pushed two five six, and said to the prime minister who was still saluting,
"I'm tired today, we'll discuss this later."
When the prince came last time, he took away all the Yeyan tea in the treasury.
This time, he put his junior brother together again, and let the younger brother take the lead.
What will you take?
The Holy Majesty thought to himself, just forget it, I am too poor, let the prime minister take the blame.
"Your Majesty!" The Prime Minister was anxious when he saw the Holy Majesty let go, but he knew it was useless to bring up the matter again, so he changed the subject and asked,
"The new year is approaching, and the matter of worshiping the ancestors and praying to the sky, is it necessary to arrange it with the Six Departments tomorrow morning?"
As well as all the achievements of Daqi's officials in the past year, the Ministry of Officials will also review them within a few days.
The Ministry of War should also pay attention to the defense of the nearest city of the imperial capital, lest villains make trouble. "
"Well, when it comes to this matter, there is indeed one month before the end of the year." Hearing the business, he stopped for a while and ordered: "The matter of worshiping the ancestor altar will be handed over to the Ministry of Industry for construction and the Ministry of Rites. Supervisor. Report the required amount of taels to the account department immediately.
For the rest, Prime Minister Lao will share my worries for me. "
"Yes" the prime minister bowed in response, as if his majesty was 100% assured of anything that was entrusted to him.
But if something goes wrong with him during this period of time, then things like the ceremony, the grand ceremony, and bestowals will be a bit difficult to handle.
This is also the prime minister who has no choice but to use his merits and brother-in-law's status to play career and relationship cards and hope that the Holy Lord will help him.
The Holy Majesty looked at the kneeling prime minister, and thought about the queen who was the master of the harem. Seeing the prime minister's hard work and his wife's sake, he finally nodded and said: "After a few days, the matter will be arranged. The prime minister will go to the palace and take the prince Come, please. I have something to say to him."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The prime minister bowed and retreated respectfully.
Looking at the departing prime minister, the holy majesty also lamented that those who bring relatives in court, although everything is at ease, but the prime minister's advantage is really hard to take advantage of.
And things in the palace went smoothly.
The prime minister is also mentally prepared, ready to go to the palace to invite the prince after the matter has been dealt with in the past few days.
Eleven at night.
The official gate.
Cui Daoyou laughed loudly and left the official department, and praised the four Qing brothers who were seeing them off,
"As for the rest of the investigation, as a member of the prince's mansion, I can't get away, so there is Mr. Laoqing!
I will thank Master Qing here first, and wait for the good news from Master Qing."
After a day of investigation today, Daoyou Cui found that there were indeed nearly a hundred officials with unknown origins.
But if you want to find out their identities, you have to go to the field to investigate and verify.
Coincidentally, the four of Brother Qing seemed capable and powerful, and they were still members of the official department, so Fellow Daoist Cui handed over the matter to them.
And also used the prince's token to give them some authority, so that they can leave the imperial capital without worrying about the affairs of the imperial capital.
"Lord Cui loves you!" Brother Qing politely clasped his fists when he heard Master Cui's expectation, "As an official of the Daqi court, it is our duty to serve the people, Daqi, and the prince. How can I say thank you?"
When Qing brother said this, he was grateful again: "Master Cui spoke for the four of us this time, and won the opportunity for the four of us to go out for inspection. Thank you, and it is also the four of us who should thank Master Cui!
Before the end of the new year, I will definitely give Master Cui a satisfactory answer! "
After the words fell, the four of Brother Qing clasped their fists together, and the five of them looked at each other and smiled, everything was silent.
But in fact, the four brothers Qing heard that the prince wanted to investigate the demon, and then they also wanted to use the "official messenger" who went out this time to round up their identities by the way.
Also fell in this matter.
Cui Daoyou didn't stay in the Ministry of Officials, so he returned to the palace.
The first time he came to the mansion, he also saw the old housekeeper.
Wait until you arrive at the main hall.
Zhang Feng is sitting in the first place.
"I have seen the lord!"
Cui Daoyou was also quite clear-headed and knew what the prince wanted to ask, so after the ceremony, he reported the work truthfully and said: "Today, Xiaomin went to the Ministry of Officials and met four military officers of the library.
These four military officers are excellent in their work and etiquette.The villain told them about the Heavenly Demon.
They heard that it was about the prince, and they were very dedicated, and they took people to various places to inquire immediately."
"This matter has already been approved by the king, so there is no need to mention it." Zhang Feng didn't look surprised when he heard Cui Daoyou spread the secret.
Because when he was sent out to do things before, he had already been told that he could tell other people about it.
If you do this, it may be able to reach the ears of other players, making them somewhat defensive.
You know, on the surface, I asked Cui Daoyou to say anything casually. The deeper meaning was to let him go to the government to investigate the case.
There must be some reason for this investigation.
Cui Daoyou has no acquaintances in the imperial capital, so 100% borrows from the government.
Therefore, this matter must be reported to the government.
Players also need national luck, presumably the players in the imperial capital must have some ties to the government.
It won't be long before they know.
After the player knows, this is 100% defensive, even if there is no defense, it is more or less a little different, or not natural.
After all, they don't have real identities in this world, so if they really want to find out, there must be something wrong with them.
In order not to cause accidents, they will cover up their actions a little bit, or 'supplement and perfect' their identities.
As long as there is an action, no matter what it is, it is a flaw.
It depends on whether fellow Daoist Cui can catch this flaw, or whether other players who heard the news will come to 'report' to claim credit.
By the way, the news of Fellow Daoist Cui's capture of the Heavenly Demon also belongs to the government's internal news, and it will not be spread to worry the common people.
Even if it is spread, it is actually similar to demons and cults. Anyway, this world is a world full of wild monsters.
It is not surprising that there are many demons.
Zhang Feng arranged this matter very properly.
At the same time, when Zhang Feng was thinking, after talking about Brother Qing and the other four, Daoyou Cui also approached him courteously and said, "I assure you, before the end of the year, there should be definite news about the Heavenly Demon."
"Well." Zhang Feng stood up, "Magistrate Lu and others, I have already released you. If there is no news about you before the end of the year, I will not kill you, but will send you to Magistrate Lu and others .”
Chapter 342 Time is rushing and the evidence is in hand (two in one)
'What a vicious mind'
As soon as fellow Taoist Cui turned his spiritual sense, he immediately knew that if he didn't complete the task, then after returning to County Magistrate Lu's house, the fate could be imagined.
I believe that Sun Wenshu and the others will not have any good feelings or warm hospitality for those who betrayed them.
Cramps and skinning are light.
Fortunately, County Magistrate Lu and others should have lost their power, so it will be much better.
With his strength to overcome the tribulation, at least there is no problem with self-protection.
It's just that the enemy meets every day, and this mood is a bit uncomfortable.
But at the same time, Zhang Feng saw that Daoyou Cui had no words for a while, but he took a look with his mind. Seeing that he was a little worried but relaxed, he felt that Daoyou Cui didn't seem afraid?
Think about this.
Zhang Feng picked up a cup of tea, and said: "The county magistrate Lu and others have bent the law for personal gain, and have been demoted by the king. All of them have been demoted to be envoys of the Ministry of Industry, and they will live in the imperial capital. Watch the aftermath."
'Live in the imperial capital?An official in the imperial capital? 'When Cui Daoyou heard this, he didn't say anything immediately, only promised,
"Don't worry, my lord!"
Wait until the prince nods to let him leave.
Fellow Daoist Cui saluted and left, planning not to sleep for a month.
Just check.
Although the four brothers Qing from the Ministry of Officials left, he had to go to the library of the Ministry of Officials every day to check it out by himself.
I believe that this kind of two-pronged approach is better than the four of Brother Qing's investigation alone.
This is also what Cui Daoyou felt, the prince doesn't like to watch 'Idlers'.
Then be a 'busy man'.
When the one-month deadline passes, even if it can't be found.
I believe that the prince will not really throw him over because he has no credit and hard work, right?
Walking in the courtyard, Cui Daoyou thought to himself, and then touched the token in his pocket, feeling that the prince had given him such great power.
If nothing is found out, it seems that he will be thrown back to magistrate Lu.
'It's a really hot pick up'
Fellow Daoist Cui is a little bit regretful now, regretting that he shouldn't 'stand up' to expose Lu County Magistrate, but was sent to the Ministry of Punishment with Lu County Magistrate.
Maybe he is released from prison with Magistrate Lu now, and slowly mixed in the imperial capital, freer, and won't make so many enemies.
Moreover, he is a guest official who belongs to the county magistrate Lu, and he has only recently joined the magistrate Lu's forces, so he is not yet an accomplice who participated in the Wanxiang sect.
Even if they were caught and released, they would still be in the imperial capital.
What a way!
He was really blinded by interests at the time.
It's better to hang out with the county magistrate Lu, which is also a blessing in disguise, and stay in the imperial capital!
If the county magistrate Lu and the others see how loyal he is, I believe they won't treat him badly, right?
More or less relying on the remaining prestige of Sun Wenshu and others, he can get a job in the imperial capital.
