Chapter 267

It was Xia Tingzhen who was responsible for planning the secret investigation of the town government. Xia Tingzhen knew about CAI Jin from the beginning.

As for Ji Xiu, who did not know the details, in the eyes of emperor Qingming, he was the same person who experienced the events of that year, and there was no need to deliberately hide them from each other.

He suspected that the government of the town needed to be whitewashed, but there was no need at all in front of the two ministers.

Seeing Li Ji holding the letter to Xia Tingzhen, Ji Xiu's eyes moved.

The name Cai Jin has been familiar to him recently.

Although he had not participated in many things, he could clearly guess the inside story after a little thought.

Just seeing Xia Tingzhen read the letter, he handed it to Li Ji, and the emperor was only waiting for Xia Tingzhen to speak. Ji Xiu was inevitably unhappy at the bottom of his heart.

"Although these news seem to be secret and unknown, they are not important. Therefore, the minister feels that it can't explain whether Cai Jin has really won the trust of the people in the town government for the time being." Xia Tingzhen half hung her eyes and said.

Emperor Qingming smiled noncommittally.

"Cai Jin is cautious. He will not go there for no reason and ask for too important secrets early."

This letter is some news Cai Jin recently heard from the government of the town. He has ordered someone to check it carefully. It's really right.

As for whether it has really won the trust of the Xu family——

The existence of this sentence is unrealistic.

Cai Jin was sent by him. If the Xu family really would change her completely and completely believe her, wouldn't it be a joke—— I'm afraid I dare not say that.

But her task has never been to gain the trust of everyone in the Xu family.

She only needs to approach Xu Yun and take advantage of Xu Yun to find the right opportunity to secretly investigate the truth of the matter.

Xia Tingzhen understood the meaning of emperor Qingming's words and said, "what the emperor said is also reasonable."

"Therefore, I'm going to tell you about it." emperor Qingming took his finger and tapped the letter slowly.

Xia Tingzhen naturally knows what the "matter" is.

Even Ji Xiu knows it.

When the former emperor died that year, he had no hesitation about what was said to be his majesty today, which was more or less different from their initial expectation. Of course, perhaps the first emperor saw that the situation in Beijing was so, and the Yan king did not return, so he did not want to go against the general trend——

But the passing of the throne was too happy after all.

It was so happy that people were suspicious.

After all, if you have eyes, who can't see it and who should pass it on to?

That's why he did a lot of work in those years, but he didn't do anything, so he caught it? He was also strange at that time.

Therefore, over the years, your majesty has been secretly investigating the old events of that year.

However, in recent years, he is far less important and trusted than Xia Tingzhen. Therefore, he doesn't know whether he has really found out any clues, or whether his suspicion has been amplified year after year——

But your majesty always found it on the head of the town government.

And now this move is almost to put the suspicious town government in the open!

Ji Xiu looked at Xia Tingzhen, who didn't say much, and didn't hold back: "Your Majesty, I think it's not appropriate to give such a big event to a woman alone."

"Oh?" emperor Qingming raised his eyes to him and didn't see the color of displeasure.

Ji Xiu went on to say, "although Wei Chen has not handled this matter, he has heard of rumors outside. It is said that Xu Yun was more defensive and rejected this woman. Now he has suddenly changed his attitude. Even if it can be justified, it may not be serious. There is no other strange thing -"

After a pause, he replied, "maybe this is the illusion shown by the town government."

Xia Tingzhen had no waves on her face, but she sneered at the bottom of her heart.

If he is so stupid, only Ji Xiu can say it.

Of course, the reason why he is stupid does not mean that he is untrustworthy.

It's the possibility that lies on the surface. He really can't think of when he is the emperor. He needs a sober "smart man" to remind him?

However, Ji Xiu's only advantage is that he is stupid enough.

If not, I'm afraid he won't be able to live to this day. It's because he was stupid enough that he told him to treat him carelessly. He unexpectedly let the other party have an opportunity to set up such a situation. Sheng Sheng took one of his sons and nearly lost most of his imperial heart.

Thinking of the pain of her second son being lingchi, Xia Tingzhen's expression became more and more calm.

"What if it's an illusion? What if I asked the Duke of the town directly?"

Emperor Qingming smiled vaguely and said in a slow voice, "if the thing is really in his hands, this will be the last chance for me to show my loyalty to the Duke of Zhenguo --"

Let's see if the final performance of the Duke of Zhenguo can satisfy him.

And if you decide to play tricks with him, then

The Xu family disappeared, and I can't blame him for his recklessness.

Qingming emperor still had a light and peaceful smile on his face, but his eyes were cold.

Ji Xiu's heart trembled and his back was covered with cold.

The emperor is afraid of the town government. Naturally, he knows it all the time

But now such an attitude is more than fear?

Is it because... King Yan is about to enter Beijing?

If the Duke of Zhenguo really has something in his hand, it will probably cause great changes when King Yan enters Beijing. Is it because of this possibility that the emperor begins to lose his temper?

But the more anxious this kind of thing is, the more likely it is to make a wrong idea.

Now the king beats the Duke of the town in such a dignified way. If the Duke of the town is innocent and has no two hearts, wouldn't he be self defeating? Pushing the originally neutral Xu family farther and farther?

Just according to the temperament of the Duke of the town, he was forced hard. He broke the broken pot and broke the fish's death net. Will your majesty really be able to resist it then?

A town Lord who wants to overthrow the imperial court is a fool's dream, but now the world is just rough. There are still wolves around, from foreign enemies to the king of Yan... I'm afraid there will be many profiteers at that time!

Has your majesty thought about these?

His majesty, dazzled by suspicion and unease, may admit that he has no choice——

But Xia Tingzhen didn't think of it?!

Why have we not been reminded and dissuaded?

In the final analysis, I just want to use your Majesty's suspicion to eradicate dissidents for myself!

Therefore, this treacherous villain is afraid that he has not only failed to dissuade and remind, but also secretly repeatedly engaged in slander and provocation!

He had noticed earlier that Xia Tingzhen had formed a party, and had long refused to be satisfied with being only among Wen Chen. Most of the people promoted in the Beijing camp in recent years were recommended by Xia Tingzhen's party——

Pooh!

What shit, Wenchen!

Love to play with these tricks... They are all finished things regardless of the overall situation for their own self-interest!

Have they ever been on the battlefield? Do you know what your chances of winning a real fight are? After reading a few books, I really think I can control everything?!

Ji Xiu scolded at the bottom of his heart.

As for why he didn't speak to dissuade his majesty?

Didn't he try to persuade you just now?

Can he persuade me!
