Gua Fei in the world

Chapter 489

Is Zhong Shuling a fool?If Zhong Shuling was a fool, how could he have been the head of a hundred officials for decades?Nie Qiheng died in Guo's house. Guo Jianting said that Dou Yingdu killed him. Did Nie Zhongshuling, who lost his beloved son, believe Guo Jianting's words?

But in fact, Zhongshu Ling believed it, and he believed it deeply. It can be seen from the fact that Dou Xing's charges were convicted so quickly. If Zhongshu Ling didn't believe it, he would naturally stop him.It's not just Qin Dun who doesn't understand this, even Wen You and Xiao Shirui have a vague understanding.

"The situation." Wen Tingzhan's smile became brighter under the bright firelight.

"I know that Huguang suddenly lost a chief envoy, and it is impossible for His Majesty to lose another governor of Zhili at the same time anyway, otherwise there will be chaos." Wen You and Xiao Shirui looked at each other and said, "But the Zhongshu Ling is not Would it be unpleasant to find Mr. Guo in private? Which of Mr. Guo’s reserves of soldiers and horses every year, food and grass, and salary is not enough for Mr. Guo to handle?"

Wen You's doubts are different from Qin Dun's. He was worried that they would not be able to completely subdue Guo Jianting after all their efforts. There is no way to retreat, because he has Guo Xiaogang's handle in Wen Tingzhan's hands.But if Zhong Shuling played tricks on it, he might not be resentful towards Wen Tingzhan.

However, before they left, Guo Jianting personally came to find Wen Tingzhan. He didn't know what they said that night, including Ye Yaoguang, but Guo Jianting sent them out of the city gate and gave half of the Guo family's token to Xiao Shirui. This is absolute surrender, with no room for maneuver.Moreover, Wen Tingzhan's words are always respectful as son.

"Not only will Zhongshu Ling not embarrass Guo Jianting, but he will also treat him generously." Wen Tingzhan raised his head, his gaze was very far-reaching...

While Wen Tingzhan was giving them an analysis, in the imperial palace of the imperial capital, Emperor Xinghua once again stayed alone for dinner with Emperor Chu and Nie Zhongshuling, and after the meal, moved to Changle Hall. As soon as Emperor Xinghua sat down, he asked, "Huguangbu?" Envoy, what do you two think?"

"Your Majesty, the governor of Huguang is the chief minister of the sixteenth governor, and he needs to be cautious." Master Chu said first.

Emperor Xinghua glanced at Emperor Chu, and then his eyes fell on Zhongshuling: "What about you?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Huguang's envoys have a lot to do with the government. Veteran ministers should be careful when they follow the words of the emperor and teachers." Zhongshu Ling has white hair and looks a little haggard, but he is in good spirits.

"Okay, I didn't let you fight in the past, and you fought so badly. Today, I will give you a chance, so you can play Tai Chi for me." Emperor Xinghua held up the golden land regiment longevity pattern teacup, with a flat face, "Said Tell me, who do you think is suitable."

"Reporting to Your Majesty, this old minister has no intention of fooling His Majesty, nor does he have any intention of giving in." Emperor Chu said sincerely, "There is no one in the old minister's family who is familiar with the Huguang area, and this envoy is a third-rank official. It is more competent to send people who know the basics."

"One government really needs someone who knows the root and the bottom." This sentence was approved by Emperor Xinghua. He nodded and looked at Zhongshuling, "I seem to remember that Liu Jumin once served as the magistrate of Lingxi?"

Zhongshu made Wen Xiange understand the elegant meaning, and immediately understood that Emperor Xinghua wanted to transfer Liu Jumin outside.Liu Jumin is also a third-rank official now, which is a mediocre tune, but the gap is huge. Holding a party's power outside is much fatter than killing one or two third-rank ministers in the imperial capital when a brick falls, and I have always had ministers who came back to be promoted after being gilded. .Liu Jumin is his man, and he is in an embarrassing period in the capital, he also feels a little guilty, it is very good for Liu Jumin to leave this right and wrong place now.And this tune is also a signal that His Majesty asked him to go for gold plating.Changing his situation can be regarded as saving his own face.

only……

"Liu Shilang made great achievements in Lingxi back then, and he will definitely be qualified for the post of Huguang Governor, Your Majesty is wise." Emperor Chu praised quickly.

"Your Majesty is wise." Zhong Shuling could only follow closely.

Since both parties agree, Emperor Xinghua is naturally very happy to finalize the decision so quickly. Next is the magistrate of Baoding. Originally, His Majesty planned to use the disciples of Emperor Chu's teacher, but it coincided with the three-year performance appraisal, and there was a county magistrate in Baoding who worked hard. He was re-elected for six years. This person is a child from a poor family, and he is not within anyone's scope. Emperor Chu strongly recommended him, and Emperor Xinghua immediately nodded even more happily.

After Zhong Shuling returned to the mansion, he immediately recruited Liu Jumin and told him the matter in advance. Liu Jumin felt as if struck by lightning in his heart, but he had to pretend to be grateful and happy: "Student, thank you teacher .”

"Well, Huguang's political envoy is extraordinary, do your best, and His Majesty will treat you well when you come back." Zhong Shuling stretched out his hand and patted Liu Jumin on the shoulder.

"Student, I will live up to my teacher's entrustment." Liu Jumin said respectfully.

After Liu Jumin left, Nie Qiyao, the eldest son of Zhongshu Ling, said, "Father, why did His Majesty appoint Liu Jumin as the political envoy of Huguang?"

"Your Majesty wants to appease you as a father." Zhong Shuling sighed softly, "For your brother's death."

"Just use a Huguang political envoy in exchange for brother's life?" Nie Qishou said coldly.

"Otherwise, what do you want?" Zhong Shuling looked at his eldest son with serious eyes, "As the eldest son, your father treats you differently since you were young, because when your father grows old, you have to support your whole body. Nie family, but you brothers one by one..." As he spoke, Zhong Shuling angrily pulled out a letter from his sleeve and threw it on Nie Qishou's face, "Look for yourself what your good brother has done!"

This letter was written by Guo Jianting himself to Zhongshuling. Naturally, he did not admit that his son was the murderer, but accused Zhongshuling of being incompetent in teaching his son and deceiving too much, and there is evidence of Xiao Dou's family.

"He is the youngest son. As a father, he doesn't expect him to be able to take care of the family business, so he indulges him a lot. He doesn't want to be an official, and as a father, he doesn't persecute him. But you, as the eldest brother, even your own brother did such a thing. You don’t even know about the absurd things. If you go to someone’s house to cheat on someone’s wife and give birth to an evil seed, even if the person was really killed by the Guo family, how do you go to avenge your father? You want everyone in the world to see For father's joke, do you want to see our Nie family's joke?" Zhongshu Ling sharply accused.

"Father calm down, it's because the child neglected to discipline the younger brother." Nie Qiyao was also deeply shocked after reading it. If this is revealed, the Nie family will lose face.

"Raising or not teaching, it's the father's fault, it's the father's fault." Seeing the eldest son admitting his mistake, Zhong Shuling's expression softened, and he sighed softly, "Your Majesty is so wise, how could he not know that there is an inside story, His Majesty released Liu Juyan, It is intended to appease the father, to give the father great power, and to resolve the stalemate between the father and Liu Juyan, and at the same time, it is also a warning to the father, accept it when it is good."
