Chapter 1252 Should Have Been Silenced
Tai Shuxiong came back to his senses and suddenly said: "No matter whether Gu Wang admits it or not, some people have gone too far and crossed the line. They dare to single out Gu Wang's daughter to vent his own anger... Could it be that Gu Wang's Isn't his daughter as good as his son? Tao Lue, it's time for you to give him some color!"
Tao slightly leaned forward, "Old slave, I understand."
…
The next morning, Shao Pingbo went to court.
His appearance should have caused a commotion, but instead it was surprisingly calm. On the contrary, there were quite a few people who were slyly laughing.
After everything was discussed, Shao Pingbo stood up and proposed the proposal on the spot. Naturally, there was no resistance and everyone agreed, so the matter was settled.
At first, the courtiers agreed because they wanted to clear the Seventh Princess's innocence. Then they objected because it was the enemy's conspiracy. Now they agree because Shao Pingbo's true feelings have nothing to do with the enemy's conspiracy. In short, they said both the truth and the opposite.
Tai Shuxiong was a little annoyed about this. The factions in the court that usually checked each other in his hands suddenly joined forces. This made him very unhappy, which was not what he, the emperor, wanted to see. Fortunately, he also knew that it was just because of this incident, and this incident was also caused by himself.
As for the wedding date, it is not up to Shao Pingbo himself. Someone will discuss it and come up with an auspicious date.
As soon as the results came out here, other conclusions were quickly drawn about the students behind them.
Just like Shao Pingbo had arrested some people's family members and sent them to prison. After achieving his goal, it was found out that the sesame oil money paid by those family members as tribute to the Fire Temple was only the sesame oil money and had no other involvement.
Those students were found innocent and their officials were reinstated. It was a big or small matter, but it turned into a trivial matter.
In fact, these students were not in the eyes of some people. They only wanted to attack Shao Pingbo's arrogance and win a game, but they were targeted at the people below. For a while, they really couldn't find any other reason to attack Shao Pingbo. Who would have thought that Shao Pingbo would care so much about the unexpected effect.
Since the emperor could not stop him from supporting Shao Pingbo to ascend to the throne, he naturally had to take advantage of Shao Pingbo's submission to win back the previous game, not only to gain face and vent his anger, but also to let the people below see that they had not lost. As for those students, they are far from mature. In their eyes, they are just shrimps. It is worth it if they can achieve their own goals after being let go.
In short, it was a struggle between a group of high-ranking officials in the court, and the people at the bottom suffered unreasonable disasters.
After the court was over, the news reached Concubine Lan. Concubine Lan was confused. Even she couldn't understand what was happening over and over again. I don’t know whether I should be happy or worried, and I don’t know if there will be any changes in the future.
In the smiling eyes of a group of people, Shao Pingbo left alone.
The internal historian Zhao Gongquan, Mr. Zhao, also "accidentally met" the internal affairs manager Tao Lue.
As soon as Zhao Gongquan handed over his hand in greeting, Tao Lue said, "It's Mr. Zhao, I'm here to help you." After saying that, he lifted the hem of his robe and knelt down in front of him.
Zhao Gongquan was startled by his action, but he couldn't bear it, so he quickly stretched out his hand to support him.
The two young eunuchs accompanying him were also frightened, and quickly reached out to support him.
Tao Lue had to kneel down, but Zhao Gongquan stopped him forcefully and asked hurriedly: "Mr. Tao, why are you doing this?"
Tao Lue sighed: "Oh, it's all old slaves who are incompetent in their discipline. Although Shao Pingbo is a court official, he has no actual position. He is still serving in my Heishuitai for the time being. He is still a member of my Heishuitai. I heard that this ignorant person Yesterday, this guy went to the Zhao Mansion again and disturbed Mr. Zhao. This old slave is really uneasy, and I am here to apologize to you. I hope you will not remember the villain's fault."
Zhao Gongquan suddenly laughed awkwardly, "It's none of Mr. Tao's business. It's none of Mr. Tao's business."
Tao Lue: "It's true that the old slave didn't discipline him well. Mr. Zhao, if you discipline him well, it's your turn to help the slave to discipline these disobedient things."
These words sounded wrong, and Zhao Gongquan felt a little scared when he said them, and said hurriedly: "Mr. Tao, you have spoken harshly. You have spoken harshly."
Tao Lue: "Then Master Zhao is willing to forgive this old slave?"
"This..." Zhao Gongquan was speechless and argued: "Mr. Tao, Shao Pingbo is Shao Pingbo, and Heishuitai is Heishuitai. They are two different things."
Tao Lue said meaningfully: "But he is from Heishuitai now after all! Oh, forget it, since Mr. Zhao doesn't care anymore, I will just thank you. Mr. Zhao is busy with official duties, so I won't bother you. .”
Zhao Gongquan had no choice but to talk about this matter again, and hurriedly raised his hands and said: "Mr. Tao, please go slowly!"
Tao slightly bowed, turned and walked away, but as he walked, he reprimanded the young eunuchs who were following him, "Everyone who followed Mr. Shao to Zhao Neishi's Mansion to cause trouble yesterday will be found by me. Each of them will receive thirty sticks! Pass the word and let them Sons and daughters, remember this, Mr. Zhao’s residence is not a place for them to run wild, anyone who sees Nei Shi’s Mansion in the future will open their eyes wide and avoid it!”
"Yes!" The two eunuchs agreed.
Zhao Gongquan, who was about to turn around and leave, froze, and realized that the other party's words were not a warning to the people below, they were clearly meant for him.
I understand, he beat Shao Pingbo yesterday, which made the old guy in the palace unhappy. Shao Pingbo is wearing Heishuitai's skin. Most likely, this old guy thinks that he doesn't take him seriously. Hit him in the face.
What do you mean, everyone's eyes widen when they see Neishi Mansion? Zhao Gongquan was a little shuddered!
Sometimes, they, the ministers of the court, are not afraid of the emperor. After all, the rules are there. But for people like Tao Lue, the rules are only superficial. On the surface, they follow the rules better than anyone else, but they don't follow any rules secretly. Especially the Black Water Tower that Tao Lue holds, which is the intelligence agency of the Jin State. It has huge power and extensive penetration. It is unknown how much information he has in his hands. He usually doesn't interfere in the government affairs. If this is targeted, he will be targeted. It’s too much.
Although he was frightened, he was also a little angry. Shao Pingbo used Heishuitai's identity to do evil!
You people from Heishuitai came to my Zhao Mansion to kill people, and the person you killed was my son. You pretended that you didn't know anything. Is there anyone in the whole court who wants to talk about Shao Pingbo's identity as Heishuitai? Now I'm just teaching you a lesson, are you going to fall out?
"Mr. Tao! Mr. Tao, please stay!" Zhao Gongquan, who had recovered his senses, suddenly shouted and chased after him. He had to talk to the other party.
…
"Shao Pingbo took the initiative to propose marriage?"
In the mountains and forests, Niu Youdao was stunned when he received the news from the Jin capital.
Jia Wuqun wrote in his hand on Yuan Cong's back, "To protect his students."
Niu Youdao shook the message in his hand and laughed loudly: "I've gone around in a circle and come back again. Sir, you really have a clever plan. I admire you!"
Jia Wuqun smiled bitterly and shook his head, "It was also unexpected. I just hit him smoothly. I didn't expect Shao to succumb to it. Although I went back to the original purpose, the intervention of Piaomiao Pavilion finally stopped the original plan from continuing!"
Niu Youdao nodded slightly, looked at the message in his hand, and couldn't help but mutter, "Student...student..." He was really surprised that Shao Pingbo actually surrendered for these people. This was not like Shao Pingbo's style.
The group of people who could make Shao Pingbo care so much really caught his attention this time. He had never taken these people seriously before.
He planned to go back and arrange for people to pay attention.
Another golden wing came. Wei Duo took the letter and was about to translate it. He found that it was an open letter and did not need to be translated, so he sent it immediately.
Niu Youdao took it and looked at it, then smiled and said, "This should be a letter from the Prime Minister to Sir." He handed it over smoothly.
Jia Wuqun hurriedly checked it and found that there was no signature in the letter, and there was no name in the letter. It just said some personal gossip, like the nagging of ordinary people.
However, Jia Wuqun understood the meaning of the letter. Zi Pingxiu didn't know what happened. Nanzhou sent someone to send his family members away in the name of going out for fun.
Although the letter writer did not leave a name, he could tell at a glance that the handwriting was Zi Pingxiu's. He was afraid that the letter would be intercepted, so he kept it secret. He also saw that Nanzhou was indeed helping Zi Mansion prepare for a secret evacuation. If something changed, Can disappear quickly.
Seeing this and knowing that it was no longer a verbal promise but had been fulfilled, Jia Wuqun was completely relieved and bowed again to express his gratitude to Niu Youdao. He was sincerely grateful, knowing that Nanzhou would take a greater risk by doing this than by keeping silent.
After that, Jia Wuqun wanted to write back to Zi Pingxiu, so as to reassure Zi Pingxiu, and also to make Zi Pingxiu cooperate with peace of mind. Niu Youdao was right.
At nightfall, another message was received from Nanzhou. After seeing it, Niu Youdao temporarily left this secluded place.
In the middle of the night, he appeared on the riverside outside a city. There was a fishing boat moored on the riverside. The fisherman was sitting alone on the bow. Niu Youdao invited him on board without warning.
The fisherman picked up the bamboo pole and propped it up on the shore. The boat swayed away from the shore and floated into the river.
After looking around for no one, Niu Youdao sat down and asked, "Why did you come here in person?"
The fisherman said: "I just happened to have something to go out of the country. It's troublesome to arrange people, so I came here by the way. I have some clues about the matter you want to investigate. As expected, someone is missing in the map area you gave me. Recently, three people from Piaomiao Pavilion have disappeared, slightly. There is movement, the Piaomiao Pavilion personnel in the Qijing area are looking for it." The person who came was none other than Sha Tulai.
Niu Youdao was surprised, "Three? I only have two here."
Sha Tathagata: "One is named Bian Qiu'an and the other is Lu Wei. These two people are originally from Piao Miao Pavilion stationed in the Qijing area. There is also a man named Qin Yaoguang, who has some status. Piao Miao Pavilion is one of the nine banks in Qijing. One’s shopkeeper.”
Niu Youdao: "What do the three of them look like?"
Sha Rulai: "I don't know what they look like. But based on the information you provided and my understanding of Piaomiao Pavilion, the three of them should be in a group, and Qin Yaoguang should be the top line of the other two."
Niu Youdao was suspicious, "If the people from the bank are not only responsible for the bank's affairs, how can they become the top line for the other two people?"
Sha Rulai: "That's the problem. The two people you mentioned probably didn't follow the orders of the superiors in their area of responsibility. They should have been acting privately. After these two people disappeared, Qin Yaoguang should have been silenced."
Niu Youdao: "This is no joke. Are you sure?"
Sha Rulai: "At least Bian Qiu'an and Lu Wei, judging from the time they disappeared, they should be the two you want to find. As for whether Qin Yaoguang was silenced, I can't say for sure if it is confirmed. If it is true. If you silence him, then this matter will be interesting. Then you can think of a way to dig out the person behind Shao Pingbo."
Niu Youdao: "If it is really silenced, it will already be a warning. It will be difficult to dig out easily again. It depends on the situation. By the way, has the ban on Wuliang Garden been lifted?"
Sha Tathagata: "No, why do you always care about the Infinite Garden? Isn't it because you want to get the Infinite Fruit?"
"You're overthinking." Niu Youdao shook his head. He had no idea of hitting the Immeasurable Fruit. Instead, he suddenly bumped into Lu Wushuang outside the Holy Land, causing a change in the plan. Now Ao Feng can't come out. Ao Feng was living like a year, and he was afraid that something might happen to Ao Feng.
