Chapter 932 Action
The two sisters Xu Zhiyuan and Xu Zhidi have not heard from each other for a long time. This is not because they are slack, but because of the "silent" posture Heishui has taken to protect them.
That is to say, unless there is extremely important news, the identities of the two sisters Xu Zhiyuan and Xu Zhidi as secret agents will not be activated.
The top-secret level five is a level of secrets in Heishui. It belongs to the highest level of top-secret information and needs to be passed on to the Heishui director and the leader of the Black Flag Battalion as soon as possible. Except for these two people who can check it, no one in any part of the channel has the right to open this message.
That's why Wang Jian rushed from Fengri City to Haocheng at the risk of being misunderstood by Shen Hao, for fear that arriving late would delay this important information. Even though he met the conditions to check the news, he didn't read it. Let's wait until Mr. Shen has seen it.
Shen Hao put down the teacup, took the copper bar, and then used his waist card and soul wave to unlock the several bans on it, and then began to read it carefully.
There are quite a lot of information, and it took Shen Hao half a stick of incense to read it, but he didn't study it many times.
"Have you read anything?"
"The subordinates haven't seen it yet."
Shen Hao was noncommittal, and remained silent for a while before saying, "Is there any special news from the Imperial City recently?"
"Not yet." Wang Jian did not hesitate. During this time, there was indeed no special news from the imperial city, and everything seemed to be going smoothly.
Shen Hao pushed back the copper bar in his hand this time, motioning Wang Jian to take a look first.
Wang Jian's reading speed was much faster than Shen Hao's, and he finished it very quickly, and then said with a little panic: "It is true that this matter has not received the slightest news beforehand, and even now, there is no sign of this matter in the entire imperial city. "
"Where's the forbidden army? Is there no movement?"
"Forbidden army? This, this is an action. It is said that it was a routine drill a few days ago, and it was divided into four groups and entered the four city gates. The defenders are familiar with the basic military strategy of city defense. You mean, this is actually preparing for this event? A look of excitement appeared on Wang Jian's face, as if seeing a meaty wolf.
Wang Jian's expression made Shen Hao smile a little. He patted the coffee table in front of him and scolded, "Why are you so excited? Isn't this incident already in your Heishui's expectation?"
"My lord, Meng Lang is under me. It's just that I haven't encountered such a big event for a long time, so I can't control it. Please don't blame me, my lord."
The message on the copper bar is actually simpler, just one sentence: The emperor is going to attack the left minister Ye Lansheng.
Ye Lansheng, the left minister, had always been the top figure of the Jingjiu dynasty civil official group, and he was also a big boss in the temple. The means are cruel, the contacts are extensive, and the position is high and powerful. It can be said that when Ye Lansheng stomped his feet at that time, even Xuan Qingwei was worried.
But since last year's royal exam, Ye Lansheng and many of his gang have fallen from the clouds, and the situation is worrying. There are even many rumors that Ye Lansheng hated the emperor, and the catastrophe is not far away.
Naturally, the reason does not need to be elaborated. From the very beginning, Ye Lansheng was not optimistic about Yang Shu, who was still the seventh prince at the time. Not only did he make things difficult, but he secretly prepared to drag the war situation in the south into a vortex to regain the decision-making power of the civilian group from the army. He even did not hesitate to offend Yang Shu and Yang Jian who was still in power at the time. In the end, if Bai Changqing, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, hadn't escaped from Ye Lansheng's control in advance, the situation would have been really difficult to say.
With this personal and national hatred, Yang Shu will spare Ye Lansheng after he ascends the throne?
It was also at this time that Heishui established the project, and has been deducing and judging Ye Lansheng's fate and the emperor's plan. In the end, she always thought that Ye Lansheng was dead.
But things changed during the Blue Moon Festival. The emperor gave the left minister Ye Lansheng enough face at the state banquet. Not only was Ye Lansheng's name at the top of the banquet list, but even the seat number showed his status as the top civil servant.
All these signs showed that Ye Lansheng hadn't been thrown to death by the emperor.
Another way of thinking, maybe the emperor was just beating and scaring Ye Lansheng, not beating him to death. After all, behind Ye Lansheng is not only the civil official group, but also has the support of many powerful people, great nobles, and many Xiu clan families.
If the emperor doesn't want to mess up the situation in the country after he ascended the throne, then there is a high possibility that he will "forget" Ye Lansheng's previous actions. The so-called "the overall situation is the most important" is also interpreted in this way.
As for the emperor's temper? Many people know that when the emperor was still the seventh prince, his temper was very narrow-minded, and he would take revenge. But isn't this the emperor now? Would the emperor be so narrow-minded?
Those who think that Ye Lansheng has to live again think: The emperor has to be willing if he doesn't want to! The forces behind Ye Lansheng are intricate, and the emperor has to give up three points!
People who think that things are not so simple think: It’s just a trick, the emperor was careful before he ascended the throne, but now that the power in the world is in his hands, he has become tolerant all of a sudden?
Heishui's view is the latter, so I have been waiting.
Now the two sisters Xu Zhiyuan and Xu Zhidi have uploaded a top-secret message from the House of Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, which clearly states that the emperor has sent a secret decree, asking Bai Changqing to write down Ye Lansheng's sinister plan against the military affairs in the south, and write it down in the form of a letter It will be played at the next court meeting.
This is clearly the prelude to the emperor's move on Ye Lansheng.
"But my lord, that matter was our speculation from the beginning to the end. Even Bai Changqing should have no evidence, right? Will such a performance be useful?" Wang Jian quickly entered the state of deduction. Wang Jian has also considered this matter, but now the emperor's actions are somewhat unexpected. He originally thought that the emperor would use another excuse to deal with Ye Lansheng.
"Do you think it is enough for the emperor to take the blame for Bai Changqing alone? When dozens of people kneel on the ground and sing Ye Lansheng's crimes, or secondment Bai Changqing's words, do you think Ye Lansheng can retreat completely? What is there a saying? Three A man becomes a tiger, and his words are terrifying."
"But my lord, if it's just like this, Ye Lansheng will definitely not die."
"Of course. What the emperor wants is a reason for the uproar, and then the specific investigation is a matter for us Xuan Qingwei. Because Ma Xuanlin, Minister of the Ministry of Justice, must also be involved and need to avoid suspicion. And we are a knife in His Majesty's hand, Cutting who is not cutting?"
To be honest, at this moment, Ye Lansheng is actually dead. What needs to be considered is whether the forces behind Ye Lansheng will be crushed by the emperor.
And the timing is actually right.
From Shen Hao's point of view, the reason why Ye Lansheng was so slow to move, and then deliberately created a room for "beating" instead of "killing" during the Blue Moon Festival, the purpose is actually not complicated at all, it is just The emperor is waiting for only one person.
Wait for Zuo Yuliang, who is newly named General Zhu Guo, to come back.
Zuo Yuliang returned to the imperial city a few days ago, and the emperor held a rather grand reception ceremony. In fact, it is only here that the crisis in the south has been completely resolved, both externally and internally.
The crisis in the south is gone, so the emperor is now free to prepare to solve the internal problems.
The emperor's movements were actually very fast.
