Chapter 1280 Easy

Willing to pay for mistakes and admit failure while actively correcting.

Show your attitude and take the initiative to ask for punishment. This has actually solved the root cause of Shen Hao's previous hesitation. It looks simple, but in fact it is anti-human in the choice of one's own heart.

People are "greedy" and instinctively "avoid disaster". Taking the initiative to accept punishment is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Obviously, Shen Hao's request for punishment made the emperor a little confused. He didn't expect that Shen Hao came to plead guilty, and it was also the fault of the intelligence organization "Black Water" established in the Black Flag Camp.

It stands to reason that Shen Hao should go to Pang Ban to plead guilty for this kind of negligence within the Black Flag Battalion, and then Pang Ban will come to the palace to have an audience with him to plead guilty. This time and again, Pang Ban, the commander, can also share a lot of burden. Shen Hao's pressure. But Shen Hao didn't do that, why?

It's not that he wants to bear the punishment by himself instead of dragging Pang Ban into the water. It was easy for the emperor to figure out these twists and turns, and the secret thought in his heart was as it was said outside. Although Shen Hao had a violent reputation, he was affectionate and righteous to his own people. Such a person makes him more at ease even if he is an eagle dog. Because as long as you treat him well, he will repay you instead of becoming a white-eyed wolf.

Then Shen Hao told the ins and outs of the matter, and the emperor's eyes widened when he heard it. He knew that Heishui was engaged in intelligence channels, and he also understood that intelligence channels needed to spread spies widely, and needed to make some secret arrangements that could not be made public. But he never expected that Heishui would put his hands into the backyard of the dignified Hubu Shangshu, and he was also the head of the family!

Yang Shu had heard of the two young wives in Bai Changqing's family, and even brought them up more than once as a talking point. It's rare to see a red-haired beauty, not to mention that there are many twists and turns in it, and some stories are not like this. Wonderful. But now Shen Hao told him that everything was arranged by Heishui. They were the ones who made things up for Bai Changqing. The original purpose was to find out some information about the trend of the civil servants group in the imperial examination.

In fact, Yang Shu took advantage of Bai Changqing's spies. He was just surprised that Heishui or Shen Hao would be so courageous that he dared to stretch his hand so far.

But something went wrong right now, the two spies beside Bai Changqing actually had the intention of betraying, but when dealing with this problem, Bai Changqing jumped out and approached Shen Hao, saying that he knew his wife was a spy but still didn't give up. He wanted to fight head-on with Shen Hao, forcing Shen Hao to give up his plan to poison his wife. Finally, a stalemate was formed.

And Shen Hao came here to plead guilty because of this matter, and he had already thought up the crime himself, which is called: negligence in the fundamentals of intelligence, which led to the leakage of secrets and brought great hidden dangers.

"Your Majesty asks you to punish me severely for my mishandling!" As he spoke, Shen Hao put his head on the ground and made it clear that he would let him be dealt with.

In fact, how can the emperor deal with Shen Hao? Shen Hao's current status is special. He has been appointed as the chief deacon of foreign affairs in Fenghong Villa. He is also the only disciple of the two ancestors in Fenghong Villa. What is great is to punish the salary, or reprimand, or dismiss him as an agent, what is this to Shen Hao? Even if the chargé d'affaires were dismissed and the limelight passed, who in Xuanqingwei would still be able to snatch his position as the commander of the Black Flag Battalion? Pang Ban would not agree.

But the advantage of doing this is obvious, it can directly relieve the pressure on the emperor, and no matter what Bai Changqing does later, the threat will be reduced by half immediately. And after knowing the penetration depth of Heishui's spies, it is impossible for the emperor to watch Bai Changqing publicize this matter and ruin the long-term arrangement of the Black Flag Camp. After all, the emperor also needed eyes and ears to help him listen to the gossip of the civil and military officials and the market below.

Therefore, the intelligence channel of the Black Flag Camp is not only used by the Black Flag Camp, but the emperor is also among the people who benefit from it.

These things are actually not difficult to think about. Before, Shen Hao was just blinded by his horns, but now that his heart is gone, he can naturally deal with it freely.

Yang Shu looked at Shen Hao, who was kneeling on the ground, not in a hurry to speak, but with a half-smile on his face. To be honest, he didn't have much anger towards the "mistake" Shen Hao said, probably because it hadn't caused any obvious loss. Moreover, the ability of the black water to infiltrate made him feel satisfied. In addition, he took the initiative to plead guilty and did not deliberately conceal it, and this attitude made him even more angry.

In addition, when Shen Hao came out like this, a doubt in Yang Shu's heart was completely resolved. When the two got in touch, he had a smile that was not a smile.

After a while, the emperor pulled out a copper bar from the table and threw it in front of Shen Hao.

"Open it and take a look. After all, they are all smart people, each with their own calculations, and will choose their own most advantageous way to break the situation. You are very similar in this regard."

The emperor's words made Shen Hao a little confused. Picking up the copper bar that was thrown over, before opening it, I saw the unique ornamentation on the copper bar that belonged to the household department, and wondered in my heart: Could it be that Bai Changqing also reported this matter to the emperor? !

While being surprised, Shen Hao opened the copper bar. There were not many words in it, only more than a thousand words before and after, and the content expressed was not related to the name of his apology today, but it also surprised Shen Hao very much.

"Your Majesty, this."

Yang Shu said with a smile: "This is a note from yesterday morning, written by Bai Changqing himself. I am still wondering why Bai Changqing, who has done a good job in the household department, suddenly wrote a letter to sue his old age, and also hoped to send the youngest son of the family to learn art at Fenghong Villa , I sincerely hope for my permission.

I even wrote half of the note reprimanding him, but you came to apologize. So Bai Changqing retired because she wanted to avoid disaster? At the same time, it's good for me to endorse it in case of accidents?

Shen Hao, oh Shen Hao, Xuan Qingwei's reputation outside is already bad enough, and now your Black Flag Camp's reputation seems to be even worse than that! The majestic household secretary is so frightened by you that he wants to sue the old man to avoid disaster, tsk tsk, this prestige is really extraordinary! "

Can't tell whether the emperor's tone is pure teasing or beating, Shen Hao knelt down and didn't try to defend himself, after all, reputation is something that is given by others, you can't control whether it is good or bad, and Bai Changqing's choice is also Bai Changqing's personal judgment It's really hard to say whether it's because he was afraid to avoid disaster, but the result is indeed the same reason as Shen Hao's coming to ask for a crime today.

After a while, Yang Shu shook his head, waved Shen Hao up, and said, "Okay, you have to punish yourself to find Pang Ban. What's the matter with you, Xuan Qingwei, who have their own rules to find me? As for Bai Changqing, That's my capable minister, you can't mess around.

As for the spies, I will warn Bai Changqing not to talk nonsense, and if something goes wrong, I will trouble him again.

Anyway, let's stop here. Understand? "
