Chapter 121: The emperor's conspiracy (2)

Views:

Zheng Yuan looked at Li Yuan, who was expressionless, and cursed in his heart that he was really an old fox. He picked himself up clearly before he even started. It seemed impossible to drag the Li family in. But that's okay, it's really hard to control the three of the provinces together. Wanting to understand this, Zheng Yuan focused his energy on the Dongfang family and the Wei family.

"I have already understood it just now. It seems that this incident was initiated by your grandson of the Taishi! And it was a matter of life and death. This is a bit difficult! As the saying goes, if the opponent kills Wei Jihou, It's reasonable!" Zheng Yuan pretended to be embarrassed and said.

Hearing what Zheng Yuan said, Taishi Wei realized that I was afraid that the emperor would not intervene this time. Taishi Wei was a little confused as to why Zheng Yuan made such a statement. It seems that this has never happened before! But Taishi Wei, who should be fighting for, will not let go.

"Your Majesty, this is what they colluded to give to the grandson of the old minister!"

"Master Wei, where do you start? Is it possible that all the adults present are talking nonsense?" Dongfang Angyu said disdainfully.

"Your family beats the old man's grandson like that, you still have a reason!"

"It's your grandson's voluntarily set life and death status. Who can rely on this?"

"What life and death? It's not that you deliberately framed it!" Wei Taishi exclaimed with indignation.

"You must have evidence to speak, and every adult here can testify. It is your grandson's willingness." Dongfang Angyu was unreasonable.

"You... Don't think that you are great. My Wei family hasn't put your Dongfang family in the eyes. Today you must hand over Dongfanghong to my grandson to pay for his life." Wei Tai's eyes widened with ethics.

"Huh! Okay! Let's see what your Wei family can do? I'll stop here today. We don't have any responsibility for this matter. It's all your grandson who takes the blame." Dongfang Angyu was also aggressive.

"Shut up! What a decent noise in the imperial study room. Don't forget that you are important court officials, not market rascals." Zheng Yuanqi slapped the table and shouted at the two.

After hearing Zheng Yuan's reprimand, the two honestly shut up. Zheng Yuan let out a cold'hum' and said, "Since Wei Jihou's life and death was the first thing in this matter, then Dongfang Hong's injury to him can't be regarded as a murder and injury. It can only be regarded as a fiasco. Then it's just a frustration. Let Dongfanghong compensate Wei Jihou for all medical expenses as punishment." Zheng Yuan made the final ruling.

Of course Taishi Wei couldn't agree, but it's an ass to lose some money! Hurriedly stepped forward and tried to fight for reasons: "Your Majesty..."

However, Zheng Yuan obviously had no intention of listening. He raised his hand and said, "No need to say it again! My will has been decided. And the pillars of your countries, as important ministers, actually watched the two younger generations be so nonsense, but did not come forward to stop it. It's simply outrageous. You people are all fined for half a year. One is a warning. It's not early! Everyone, please go back!" Zheng Yuan got up and left the Imperial Study Room.

Everyone also left in twos and threes, and everyone was a little surprised at how the emperor handled the matter. I really don't know what Zheng Yuan is doing? Didn't this make Taishi Wei suffocate his stomach and make trouble with the Dongfang family! Everyone firmly believes that Taishi Wei will not let go. If the emperor handles Dongfanghong, Taishi Wei will settle down in Huizhou, but doing so now is obviously a little provocative! To be honest, the verdict was a bit partial! They were the most unlucky. They were fined for half a year for no reason. It was really unlucky.

When everyone left, Taishi Wei was still standing there stupidly, he was still confused now, don't know what Zheng Yuan wanted to do? At this moment, a young eunuch walked to Taishi Wei and said that the emperor was waiting for him in the palace. Taishi Wei immediately followed the young eunuch to the palace, he thought that Zheng Yuan must have something to talk to him alone. It might be good for yourself.

When he came to the bedroom, Taishi Wei saw Zheng Yuan drinking tea in the flower hall, and when Taishi Wei had arrived, Zheng Yuan said, "Sit down! Don't be restrained here." After Taishi thanked him, he sat on the opposite side of Zheng Yuan cautiously.

"Oh! You are also the veteran of the three dynasties! How can you make a big noise in the imperial study room? Can this solve the problem? Isn't it a joke?" Zheng Yuan said slightly reproachfully.

Taishi Wei said with an aggrieved face: "But your Majesty, the old ministers are also angry with them! Look at the grandsons of the old officials, now they are not like humans or ghosts, how can the old officials calm down! Your majesty, you can You must call the shots for the veteran!" Tears fell again as they said.

Zheng Yuan changed his impatient expression just now, and said in a sympathetic tone: "Oh! I am more sympathetic to your experience in this matter. After all, you are my father-in-law by any means! Are we a family anyway! "

Hearing what Zheng Yuan said, Taishi Wei knelt in front of Zheng Yuan excitedly and said, "Your Majesty is so kind, and the old ministers are self-retribution. But... but the stepchild is really wrong! This is obviously the Dongfang family deliberately. To lure the step-child into a fool, Your Majesty Shengming must have known the trap here. Your Majesty..."

Zheng Yuan waved his hand and stopped the words of Taishi Wei. As for whether there was a trap, what did Dongfanghong think about at the time? Zheng Yuan didn't intend to know these things. What he wanted was for the two families to be pinched.

Zheng Yuan helped Taishi Wei and said helplessly, "Oh! It's not that I don't want to be the master of Aiqing! It's just that Wei Jihou voluntarily signed the certificate of life and death after all! Even if this is the opponent's conspiracy, I can only blame Wei Jihou for being too reckless. Now that all the evidence is in the hands of the other party, how do you let me deal with it!"

"But is the old official's grandson just abolished in vain? The old official refuses to accept it."

Don't Zheng Yuan patted Taishi Wei on the shoulder intently and said: "If the Dongfang family does anything rude to Aiqing, then I will definitely punish it severely. That's all right!"

When Taishi Wei heard this, he looked at Zheng Yuan blankly. He was wondering what the emperor's words meant? What does it mean to be rude? Does the emperor want to rectify the Dongfang family? With this possibility, Taishi Wei knew that Zheng Yuan had always had a bad impression of those noble families, and if he were not the emperor's father-in-law, it is estimated that Zheng Yuan would not have a good face to him. This is also the main reason Wei Taishi thinks that Zheng Yuan is facing him. After all, are everyone a family? Now that Zheng Yuan says so, isn't it just to let him move the Eastern family so that Zheng Yuan can find a reason to attack the Eastern family! grass! With the emperor supporting him, there is nothing the Wei family dare to touch.

Zheng Yuan watched Wei Taishi’s face change from doubts to excitement, knowing that his old husband already understood, so Zheng Yuan yawned and said, "Oh! It's almost dawn! I haven't had a good rest yet! Aiqing should be early too! Go back and rest!"

Taishi Wei has now received a private promise from the emperor. He has no longer the depression he had just now, and retreats happily. Zheng Yuan looked at Taishi Wei who was leaving, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and he said to himself: "Huh! Happy! When you cry."

Zheng Yuan did not go to bed after Taishi Wei left. Instead, he met with Zhou Tai, the commander of his most loyal running dog "Inner Guard".

"Let's talk! What the hell is going on today?" Zheng Yuan asked the respectful Zhou Tai while sitting in the flower hall.

Zhou Tai reported the information he had just collected, which was similar to what Li Yuan and others said. After Zheng Yuan listened, he pondered for a long time and asked: "In your opinion, will Dongfang Angyu, an old fox, turn his face for Dongfanghong and the Wei family?"

Zhou Tai thought for a while and said, "No!"

"Oh! I think so too, then shouldn't I have to do it for nothing!" Zheng Yuan didn't want this great opportunity to be missed in vain.

Zhou Tai said at this time: "Your Majesty doesn't have to worry. With the investigation and understanding of the minions, this Dongfanghong is by no means a fuel-efficient lamp."

"Oh? Tell me, is this kid harder to deal with than the old fox Dongfang Angyu?" Zheng Yuan couldn't help but his spirits came.

"His Majesty was also very interested in this Dongfanghong some time ago and asked the minion to investigate him carefully. According to the minion's investigation, Dongfanghong doesn't look young as this person, but he does everything without leaking, and he will not do anything unsure. Whether it is a civil servant or a military officer, or a business person, it is a rare talent. The reason why Dongfang Lund has today's status is half due to his son. Therefore, like this matter today, the minion thinks Dongfanghong is If he had premeditated, then he would have made all the preparations, so the Wei family and the Dongfang family will definitely fight to the death, even if it is just a Dongfanghong, it is enough to make the Wei family restless." Zhou Tai analyzed.

"Yeah! You mean Dongfanghong had a premeditated plan?"

"Yes, through the investigation of the minions, it was discovered that Yao Xuezi, his wife Yao Xuezi, whom Dongfanghong was married to him since childhood, turned out to be the daughter of the former Taishi Ling Yao. This Yao is also Dongfang Lund's worshiping brother, and this Yao is the daughter of Lord Yao. I was framed by Taishi Wei and sent out to "Liangzhou" to die abroad. I am afraid that when he knew the cause of his father-in-law's death, this Dongfanghong had already had the idea of dealing with Taishi Wei! In addition, some time ago, Wei Chenghu had drugged Feng Yuan, and it almost made Dongfanghong. , And now Feng Yuan is a member of Dongfanghong. Both his wives and the Wei family had feuds before and after. With Dongfanghong's personality that gets hot-headed when he sees a woman, he must have already figured out how to deal with the Wei family. Maybe. There have been no excuses, and he hasn't done anything for a long time. This time Wei Jihou can be regarded as giving Dongfanghong a reason to start!" Zhou Tai said his analysis.

"Hahaha, it's interesting, there is such an infatuation that only loves beautiful women! For his wife, he dare to challenge the current first-grade elders, haha, this kid is enough for a man." Zheng Yuan admired Dongfanghong's point.

"Your Majesty, if Dongfanghong and the Wei family are really up to date, but Dongfang Angyu gets out of the world, I'm afraid Dongfanghong may not be able to take over!" Zhou Tai reminded.

Zheng Yuan smiled and said, "Hey, isn't there still me! If Dongfang Angyu ran to the side to watch the excitement, huh! Dongfanghong and Dongfang Lunde, two outstanding talents, are not my people anymore! It's time to deal with the Wei family, and I will do my best to help this kid. Haha, swapping the entire Wei family for a Dongfanghong is not a loss. Let alone get rid of a thorn in the eye!"

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

"It depends on how this kid behaves! I am really looking forward to it! By the way, you go and tell the commander of the Guards that no one is allowed to mobilize the Guards without my will, and two men will be placed next to Wei Chenghu. To prevent him from jumping over the wall to lead the imprisoned guards in trouble."

"The minion takes the order! But does your majesty have to consider Dongfang Angyu's side, after all, he still holds a heavy soldier in his hand!" Zhou Tai said cautiously.

"Humph! As long as Old Man Wei doesn't use the army, Dongfang Angyu doesn't have the guts. He must dare to use the army privately, hum! I have a good reason to destroy him. Besides, it will be paid by the army he has now. It can’t threaten me. Of course, just in case, you can send someone to stare at it. As long as you control Wei Taishi here, don’t force him to cause trouble and cause trouble. Others don’t have the guts yet, and they won’t. Go do this stupid thing."

"The minion understands!"

"Yeah! Go down and get ready! The show is about to begin!" Zheng Yuan looked at the white sky in the east, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
