Chapter 880

"Why don't you have the qualifications?" Gao Gong smiled and said kindly: "You and Luo Xin are in the same year, he can be the prefect of Hangzhou, why can't you?"

"Me?" Wang Xijue said with a wry smile: "My lord, I still have self-knowledge, no matter in which respect, I am not as good as Lord Luo."

"Well! It's good that you have this self-knowledge." Gao Gong said with admiration on his face: "It's just an introduction to let you be the prefect of Hangzhou, and your Majesty will probably not agree. Our real purpose is the Shibo Secretary."

Wang Xijue's eyes were blazing with excitement: "You want me to be the commissioner of the Municipal Bureau?"

"Good!" Gao Gong nodded.

Wang Xijue immediately stood up, saluted Gao Gong and said, "I will not disgrace my mission."

"Well, you know about it, just prepare quietly and don't tell others."

"Understood!" Wang Xijue nodded happily, and then there was a worried look between his eyebrows: "My lord, but in this capital, Xu Jie will think that Hu Zongxian's impeachment of Zhang Shijie was done by you, my lord. This may cause Xu Jie It is also a big trouble for us to counterattack crazily."

Gao Gong nodded and said: "You are right, it is indeed a big trouble. Dismissing Zhang Shijie this time will undoubtedly cut off one of Xu Jie's arms. With Xu Jie's insidious character, he will definitely retaliate twice. And He will definitely think that in this matter, Hu Zongxian is just a gun, and the person holding the gun is me Gao Gong."

A look of hesitation appeared on Wang Xijue's face, he opened his mouth, but finally closed it.Gao Gong looked at Wang Xijue with a smile and said:

"Do you want to ask the old man, did the old man do this?"

"This..." Wang Xijue blushed.

"No!" Gao Gong said firmly: "If it was done by the old man, I will not hide it from you. However, this matter is indeed not done by the old man. That person is really a genius. I didn't expect that in the officialdom, he It’s also like a fish in water.”

"My lord... Who are you talking about?" Wang Xijue looked at Gao Gong curiously.

"Who else can it be? Think about it!"

"Oh!"

Sitting there thinking hard, Wang Xijue suddenly opened his eyes wide, looking at Gao Gong in shock and said:
"It's Luo Xin?"

Gao Gong said calmly: "Why do you think so?"

"The data on Hu Zongxian's memorial is too accurate. I think it is impossible to obtain such detailed data based on Hu Zongxian's ability alone. Only Luo Xin has this ability. I believe that even if Luo Xin left the southeast and returned to the capital, Daming Maritime Trade and Shibo Division, or the whole of Hangzhou are still under the control of Luo Xin. It will be difficult for others to obtain these detailed data, I am afraid that even Jinyiwei and Dongchang will be difficult, but for Luo Xin It's easy to say."

Gao Gong nodded appreciatively and said: "You are right. The only person who can get such detailed data is Luo Xinluo."

Speaking of this, Gao Gong sighed and said: "If Zhang Shijie is not so greedy and hasty after arriving in the southeast, he will slowly replace officials, slowly eliminate Luo Xin's influence in Hangzhou, and finally secure Hangzhou firmly. At that time, he was corrupt, and no one could get definite evidence of his corruption."

"That makes sense!" Wang Xijue said: "Luo Xin and Xu Jie are at odds, and the whole world knows it. Xu Jie and Hu Zongxian joined forces to drive Luo Xin out of Southeast..."

Speaking of this, Wang Xijue's expression suddenly froze: "That's not right! Isn't Hu Zongxian and Xu Jie in the same party? How did this get mixed up with Luo Xin again? Lailai also joined hands to target Xu Jie?"

He looked up at Gao Gong and said, "Could it be that Luo Xin did not do this? Hu Zongxian has no reason to shoot Luo Xin?"

Gao Gong nodded and said: "This is exactly what I haven't figured out. Although there are no permanent enemies in the officialdom, there are no permanent friends. However, Hu Zongxian and Xu Jie have just forced Luo Xin away. It didn't take long to join forces with Luo Xin to target Xu Jie, which is unreasonable, what exactly is Hu Zongxian trying to do?"

"Could it really not be Luo Xin's work?"

"If it wasn't for the old man, and it wasn't for Luo Xin, who else would do such a thing?"

"No more!" Wang Xijue shook his head blankly.

"Since this matter was not done by the old man, it must have been done by Luo Xin. It's just that we don't know how Luo Xin and Hu Zongxian formed an alliance now? The reason for their alliance must be clarified. It's terrible. Only by knowing the reason can we know Luo Xin's methods, and then we can be wary of him in the future."

"Be wary of him?"

"Why?" Gao Gong's expression became serious: "Look down on Luo Xin? Do you think he is idle in Zhan Shifu now, compared to his official position, compared to his influence, he is too far behind me and Xu Jie? We have no Should we pay attention to him?"

"This..." Wang Xijue blushed, "I know Lord Luo is... very powerful, but compared to you..."

"How does it compare to me? This old man has never even fought against Xu Jie, but Luo Xin gave Xu Jie a hard blow. Isn't that vigilant enough?"

Wang Xijue bowed his head in silence, his face flushed, and after a while, he suddenly raised his head and said, "My lord, then Xu Jie must think that Hu Zongxian's Shangzuo has something to do with us, and we are manipulating it behind the scenes. This is not good for us. Fight back like crazy."

Gao Gong smiled lightly and said, "I won't blame Luo Xin for this."

"what?"

"Ah what? Do you want the old man to take the blame for Luo Xin?"

"No!" Wang Xijue shook his head repeatedly and said, "But will Xu Jie believe it?"

"He will believe it, hehe..." Gao Gong said with a smug look on his face, "Luo Xin has always been sitting on the mountain watching the tigers fight, and now the old man can also be a fisherman."

Day two.

cabinet.

Gao Gong raised his eyes and glanced at Xu Jie, who was sitting opposite with a calm expression, and admired him in his heart. Gao Gong is a proud person. Once he has decided on something, he would not beat around the bush, and said directly:

"Although I really hope that I made that memorial, it's not."

Xu Jie on the opposite side suddenly raised his head and looked at Gao Gong carefully.Gao Gong smiled faintly, then lowered his head and continued to read the memorial, without saying a word.Xu Jie lowered his head slowly, as if he was reading the memorial, but his mind was wandering.

He believed Gao Gong's words, and the relationship between him and Gao Gong was very clear to both of them.Today you plot against it, and tomorrow I plot against you.Before the assassination, both of them hid it very well, preventing the other party from discovering it.But it is rare for the other party not to find out, because both of them are old foxes.
