Chapter 373 Unbound Wu Desi
"Why does Wang Qing want to abandon me?" Facing Wang Zhang's resignation, Liu Chengyou's face showed "perplexity", and his emotions were slightly exposed.

His mind was spinning rapidly, the reason and purpose behind Wang Zhang's actions were not hard to guess, probably nothing more than Yang Bin's matter.However, what really puzzled Liu Chengyou was, how good is the relationship between Wang Zhang and Yang Bin?

I'm afraid not at all!

Wang Zhang's attitude was neither humble nor overbearing. He just arched his hands and said slowly in an old voice: "Your Majesty knows that I am old and weak. Recently, I really feel that I can't do what I want. Now the big man, the court is stable, the place is peaceful, Your Majesty He is wise and powerful, and has all the heroes to assist him, but he doesn't need a veteran, a person with shallow morals, to usurp a high position again!"

Hearing his words, Liu Chengyou only turned his head slightly, and asked meaningfully: "Why is Wang Qing so disheartened? Is there something I didn't do well?"

"Your Majesty is serious!" Wang Zhang sighed, shaking his head, but his tone was very firm: "It is true that the old minister is sick, and he is not a deputy in virtue, so I am deeply terrified! Now, I just want to return to my hometown and buy some acres. Play with grandchildren to enjoy the family relationship, and I hope His Majesty will make it happen!"

Seeing this, Liu Chengyou's tone was equally firm, and said: "I disagree! The country's financial plan cannot be separated from Wang Qing, and I will definitely do something to rob love!"

Wang Zhang was a little surprised by the emperor's attitude, and looked up at Liu Chengyou, but he couldn't see anything from the young emperor's face, after all, Liu Chengyou's "true feelings" were revealed on his face.

Facing Wang Zhang's eyes, perhaps he felt that it was difficult for him to be strong. Liu Chengyou thought for a while, and added: "Wang Qing is not in good health, so I will send the imperial physician out of the palace and stay at the mansion for recuperation. The official business is tiring. You can reduce your physical and mental troubles and hand them over to your assistants. In short, I still need to consult Wang Qing from time to time, how can you bear to abandon the monarchy?"

That said, it's all about this.Boldly, looking at Liu Chengyou for a while, Wang Zhang's calm face showed a trace of helplessness, and he could only respond: "I obey!"

After a pause, Wang Zhang said again: "After all, the minister is old and incompetent. It is not the blessing of the imperial court to live in the third department for a long time. Please make plans early, Your Majesty!"

Liu Chengyou gave a soft "Oh" and understood what Wang Zhang meant.Putting his left hand on the imperial case, he considered his opinion, pondered for a while, and asked lightly: "Wang Qing thinks, who in the court can assist the third division?"

Wen asked, Wang Zhang thought about it carefully, paid attention to the eyes of the emperor, and said in a deep voice: "Xue Juzheng, the Duzhi judge, is worthy of a heavy responsibility!"

In Liu Chengyou's mind, an image of a middle-aged official with outstanding bearing and excellent self-cultivation immediately appeared.Without hesitation, Liu Chengyou directly made a decision: "I know this person, he has extensive knowledge, and Wang Qing's recommendation is even better. That's it, I will regard him as the deputy envoy of the third division!"

This time the scene of the monarch and his ministers facing each other, if those unknown off-site factors were excluded and spread, it would be a good story.However, the facts are often quite different from what ordinary people see on the surface.

After Wang Zhang withdrew, Liu Chengyou immediately changed his face, a little gloomy.

Wang Zhang and Liu Chengyou will be replaced sooner or later, and they have considered Yang Bin's resignation, but it is definitely not now.Just after Yang Bin fell, if Wang Zhang was kicked out of the court again, no matter whether he resigned on his own initiative or not, it would be another political turmoil, and Liu Chengyou was clear about it.

Therefore, Liu Chengyou was dissatisfied, very dissatisfied when Wang Zhang came out at such an opportunity.

Why do you want to learn from Yang Bin? The style of the court in the past two years has won the hearts of the emperor.Liu Chengyou was a little puzzled. Perhaps, he didn't have a deep feeling for the word "the rabbit dies and the fox grieves".

With an unpleasant mood, Liu Chengyou met his cousin Li Shaoyou and listened to his work report.During this period of time, in response to the purge of Yang Bin's party members in the imperial court, Wu Desi worked hard to investigate and collect evidence, collect charges, and even arrest him and send him to prison.

It has been almost two years since the establishment of the Wu De Department, during which Li Shaoyou, who was the Wu De envoy, had asked Liu Chengyou for instructions more than once, both openly and secretly. Now, he finally made an opening in the case of Yang Bin, giving the Wu De Department the right to arrest him.

From ancient times to the present, there is no reason why secret service agencies do not enjoy the right to arrest and question.

Of course, when releasing the fangs of a hungry wolf, Yoo Seung-woo did not forget to impose restrictions.The Wu De Department's authority to approve arrests is limited to officials below the fifth rank. The authority of investigators at all levels is also divided into levels, and they only have the right to arrest and question, and finally hand over the case to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for disposal.

At the same time, with regard to the army, without the order of the king, no rash actions are allowed!No way, in this day and age, civil servants are still easy to bully.
During this period of time, Liu Chengyou's cousin was very energetic, decisive and highly efficient.

Simply flipping through the files submitted by Li Shaoyou, it seemed casual, there were dozens of people, many of whom Liu Chengyou had no memory of, and had never even heard of their names.There have been many compromises in politics, but in this matter, Liu Chengyou does not need any compromise.

After glancing over like a fleeting image, Liu Chengyou put it down directly, not caring, and expressed his approval for the performance of Li Shaoyou and Wu Desi.

"After the transfer to the Ministry of Punishment, the Yang Bin case ends here, and there is no need to involve other people!" Liu Chengyou confessed to Li Shaoyou in a flat voice, extremely powerful.

"Yes!" Without the slightest hesitation, Li Shaoyou agreed.

"Brother You, you did a great job on this matter!" There was a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Probably because of the rising power, Li Shaoyou was in a very happy mood, and said modestly: "We all rely on the majesty of the officials!"

After the foreign ministers, there are not many people who can call Liu Chengyou "official family", and Li Shaoyou is one of the few people.

Withholding his expression, Liu Chengyou suddenly became serious again, stared at Li Shaoyou with bright eyes, and said in a warning tone: "Recently, because of Wu Desi, there have been a lot of complaints and a lot of complaints between the court and China!"

"If you don't have a ghost in your heart, why are you afraid of Wu Desi? Those courtiers are so jealous, I'm afraid it will be different. Should you send someone to investigate!" Li Shaoyou asked for instructions.

Frowning slightly, Liu Chengyou's expression became more dull, staring at Li Shaoyou, and said lightly: "I just want to remind you that Wu Desi should keep in mind the power of his duties in future actions, and don't go beyond the rules, otherwise."

The voice of the Son of Heaven became more and more drifting, and it fell into Li Shaoyou's ears, but it made him wake up, his complacency faded away, he couldn't help but look up at Liu Chengyou who was sitting indifferently, his heart muttered, and his mouth was like a conditioned reflex He replied confidently: "The minister must remember the official teachings and strictly restrain his subordinates!"

Nodding his head, Liu Chengyou pointed to the third person standing beside him, Wang Jingchong, and said: "Over the past few months, Wang Shilang has done a lot of hard work, and I want to reward you with the deputy envoy of Wu Desi to assist you!"

As soon as the words fell, Li Shaoyou's face changed suddenly, he frowned tightly, and glanced at Wang Jingchong who was silent by the side.There were distracting thoughts in my mind, and I wanted to refuse, but under the intimidation of Liu Chengyou's gaze, I couldn't say anything at all.

"Why, Brother You, what's your opinion?" Liu Chengyou's tone calmed down.

However, the more so, Li Shaoyou did not dare to be careless.Mianpi twitched uglyly, suppressed the strange thought, and said: "Obey!"

On the side, Wang Jingchong was both surprised and pleasantly surprised. He knew very well what kind of organization Wu Desi was.In the midst of the fuss, thank you and show your loyalty. The gamble that started in Xingzhou finally paid off.

While excited, he couldn't help thinking about the emperor's intention of putting himself in Wu Desi. He only thought about it for a while, and seemed to gain something. He glanced at Li Shaoyou with a little more playfulness.
Regardless of Li and Wang who have different minds, Liu Chengyou gave them secret instructions: "The investigation of the land, property, and Dingkou of Buddhist temples and temples in various places has been conducted for some time, and the focus of Wu Desi's next step."
