Chapter 054
In the imperial capital, a carriage stopped at the back door of the Prince's Mansion. Under the darkness, only one person was seen, wearing a black robe that almost covered his whole body, entering quietly.
At this moment, the Prince's Mansion, the study.
Xiao Luan and Zhang Xiu stood in this study, and after today's day, the arrangements that should be made have already started quickly.
The person in the black robe walked into the study and took off the black robe and cloak. This person was Fang Ning, Minister of the Household Department.
"His Royal Highness, the Prime Minister." Fang Ning called the two people in front of him, but his tone was a little anxious.
Zhang Xiu's eyes fell on the person in front of him, and he asked directly, "Have you made arrangements for the household department?"
Fang Ning nodded and said: "My lord, the lower officials have given orders, and they are all handled by credible people, but my lord, this matter involves the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce, which is not a small chamber of commerce, but the leader of the world's chamber of commerce. The wealth involved with the Ministry of Finance is not a small number, especially in this matter, the Second Highness will definitely pay more attention to it, once..."
"The news has spread to Jiangzhou City as quickly as possible. We are on the same boat as the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce. We are both prosperous and we are all damaged." Zhang Xiu said in a calm voice.
"My lord, I'm actually...in fact, I have a worry in my heart. The Second Highness will definitely hold on to this matter. In this case, Yi Heng will not be able to get away so easily. It can even be said that the officials will not pick it up." It's clean, and the same is true for the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce, in case... If, if the people of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce do the opposite, they will ruthlessly cut everyone who comes into contact with us, and then bite back to preserve their own background, then... ...No one will sit still, His Royal Highness, the Prime Minister, if there is such a possibility, the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce will definitely find out all the things with the Ministry of Households."
Listening to Fang Ning's words, Xiao Luan and Zhang Xiu naturally understood, Xiao Luan frowned, "The matter of the early court today was an order issued by the emperor this morning in the court hall. How could the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce be unpredictable, but By making such a move, Xiao Cheng’s original intention was to deal with us, and in this way, it is impossible for Xiao Cheng to let the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce be used by him.”
Zhang Xiu's face was serious, "You have already started to dissect anyone who has a little relationship with the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce under the household department, right?"
"Xiaguan is doing it, but in Jiangnan Province, it is impossible to move so fast. Xiaguan is afraid..."
"Now we can only see who moves faster." Zhang Xiu said heavily.
Xiao Luan's face was full of anger, "Xiao Cheng, what step went wrong, who acted so secretly, who leaked it."
Zhang Xiu looked grave, and said slowly: "I'm afraid that things are not as simple as we saw. This incident reminds me of another possibility."
"Another possibility? What did uncle say?" Although Xiao Luan was filled with displeasure and anger, he had to calm down more at this time.
"But still remember, what happened in the southern border back then."
"Uncle is talking about Qin Hong's incident?" Xiao Luan thought about it, and many thoughts popped up in his mind, "At the beginning, uncle said, what happened in the southern border, your intelligence came to our side, and it appeared too much. Strange, afterward, everything went very smoothly when we set out to the southern border, but the smoother it was, the more it seemed to be being pushed away. In the end, Qin Hong's layer was completely cut off, but, in the end, We wanted to arrange another suitable person to take the position, but failed. This time, at the step between us and the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce, Xiao Cheng's actions against us seemed to have known all our plans in advance. , With this punch, we are powerless to resist."
Zhang Xiu nodded, "Whether it was using our hands to deal with Xiao Cheng's Qin Hong before, or this time, using Xiao Cheng and the others to deal with our subordinate Yi Heng, those who don't understand will only think that it is the prince and his subordinates. Due to the Second Highness's faction, in fact, we all became pawns in the hands of others."
Fang Ning, who was standing beside Ai, kept thinking about these words, and his heart was already terrified, "His Royal Highness, the Prime Minister, you must save this official. If this is the case, this official..."
"Fang Ning!" Zhang Xiu called out, interrupting Fang Ning's words, "The only thing we can do is to do our best to pick ourselves out, but we have experienced this here, and the Second Highness has experienced Qin Hong before. We would all think that there must be something involved behind it, so there is no doubt that when this matter comes to an end, the people behind the arrangement will inevitably appear, using us to fight with the Second Highness, is to weaken the power in our hands. The power of the power, the purpose of both of us, is for the supreme position, and to create the current situation, that person must also want the supreme position."
Zhang Xiu's eyes fell on Fang Ning, and continued: "No matter what, the crown prince and this official will do their best to protect you."
Hearing this, Fang Ning felt a little relieved, but the matter involved involved the present, and the Second Highness could not let go of the opportunity to deal with them, and as the Prime Minister said, there might be someone behind it In the design, if these are all the bureaus set up by the person behind it, I am afraid that the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce... He himself has been in the court for many years, so how could he not know the treacherous situation of the court? Irreversible, let alone in this party struggle.
Whether it is Yi Heng or him, there is absolutely no reason to get away easily. Even if His Royal Highness and the Prime Minister will come forward, in order to prevent their power from being eroded, it is impossible to avoid things with solid evidence. In addition, the emperor... Judging from Qin Hong's matter, the emperor did not let His Highness the Crown Prince and His Highness the Second Prince be on the throne, no doubt he also had a plan. What the emperor wants is a stable country and a peaceful world. , are all rapidly rising in power. Such a situation can just take the opportunity to reorganize the power of the DPRK.
"Your Highness, my lord, I don't know how far this will go, but I don't ask for anything else, it's really going to be an irreversible situation, please Your Highness and my lord to protect my family, I am very grateful."
Xiao Luan looked at Fang Ning, "Fang Ning, you..."
Zhang Xiu stopped what Xiao Luan was going to say, and said in a concentrated voice: "Fang Ning, it would be good if we can get through this situation smoothly. If not, don't worry, His Royal Highness will definitely bring your Fang family back when the crown prince succeeds in the future." peak."
"Your Majesty understands."
In the study room, there were three people, as if everyone knew what was going on here.
……
The next day, early in the morning.
In Jiangzhou City, where Xiao Luo and Ming Che lived temporarily, Xiao Luo saw a memorial brought in by Ling Ying and a stack of thick files.
Xiao Luo opened the memorial, and wrote down all kinds of things mentioned in it, all the things related to the official department, and the various money transfers from the household department, but the old guys from the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce naturally wanted to write them all out. , The purpose of writing the letter like this is to leave oneself clean. The people who were placed before, at this time, are all reduced to scapegoats. Also, if there is no one to replace them, how can they be preserved.
Those who were placed knew in their hearts that they themselves were abandoned, but what they got in return was the safety and wealth of their families, at least not until that time, when the entire chamber of commerce was completely ruined, and there was no room left, that is It's all folded in.
Ling Ying was beside him, and said: "Master, princess, these files were sorted out overnight by the gang of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce, and all the details of money, people and things related to them are all recorded in detail. Then Cai Tong When handing it over to the subordinates, just say, everything will be handed over to the master and the princess."
Xiao Luo looked at Ming Che, "Husband, then, shall we go directly back to the imperial capital now? Counting the time, it should be the morning time."
"En." Ming Che responded softly, and with a flick of his sleeves, the thick stack of files disappeared, and he wrapped Xiao Luo into his arms. In an instant, there was no one in the room...
The imperial capital, the Jinluan Palace, above the court hall.
After experiencing a major event that happened in the court yesterday, today's early court is not like the past, and the official department has been rectified, and many officials involved have been detained for trial. less.
Naturally, with yesterday's events ahead, and such a big event has not yet been concluded, at this time, no matter what is reported to the court early, it is incomparable to what happened yesterday.
At this moment, Xiao Mingyuan was about to retreat, but he saw a guard in front of the palace rushing in, "Report to the emperor, Princess Ding is going to see her outside, and said that she has something to present to the emperor."
Hearing this, Xiao Mingyuan thought to himself, this speed is really fast, "Let him in."
The officials standing in the court hall were also a little surprised, it was so well behaved, how could Princess Ding show up, and said that she had something to present to the emperor.
However, only Xiao Luan and Xiao Cheng had their own thoughts, and whether it was Zhang Xiu on this side or Liu Shuo on the other side, they also had their own thoughts in their hearts. They were very clear about the guesses they had in their hearts before, Next, it depends on what Xiao Luo submitted, and then everything will be clear.
Soon, Xiao Luo walked in and bowed to the superior Xiao Mingyuan.
Xiao Mingyuan looked at the person in front of him, "Since you and King Ding left first in Longyin Mountain, it's been a while since you left. I don't know, what do you want to submit to me?"
Xiao Luo presented the thick stack of files and the memorial, "I left Longyin Mountain that day, and my husband and I traveled together and stayed in Jiangzhou City for a while. These things are from Cai Tong, the chairman of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce. He gave it to me. He knew that my husband and I were in Jiangzhou City, so he came here on purpose. He said that the palace is not involved in government affairs, and this matter will naturally be dealt with fairly. Therefore, he begged me and my husband to help him. It doesn't matter if you think about it If it’s important, I agree, the things have been submitted, and the details are up to the father to decide, and the son will retire first.”
Seeing this, Xiao Mingyuan called Xiao Luo to stop, "There's no rush, just wait and see this together."
