Great Qing Xiangguo

Chapter 19

Sony stomped his feet and cursed: "Reckless! Confused! Absurd! I told you, you have to use your brains! The Aixinjueluo family conspired with us for great things. Why did they become royal orthodoxy, and we can only follow left and right? Because the Aixinjueluo family can not only wield knives and guns, but also wield their brains!"

Suo'etu was dissatisfied when he heard it, but he didn't dare to say anything more.Sonny thought for a while, and then said: "Don't panic, we can let Aobai do the murder. You go to visit Aobai, you have to tell him so." Sonny told his son how to do things, and instructed him carefully one by one.

Suo'etu went to Oboi's mansion, said hello first, and then explained how Prince Zhuang came to yell at him, embellishing him, and said: "Prince Zhuang said that he will come to my house to scold people first, and he will come to your mansion someday. Come up."

Aobai said angrily: "That old thing, the old man is waiting for him!"

According to Ama's wishes, Suo'etu angered Oboi first, and then said: "Master Ao, you don't have to be angry. Prince Zhuang means to kill Wei Xiangshu and Chen Tingjing, otherwise he won't let go of his hatred."

Aobai patted the edge of the Kang and said: "Presumptuous! It is the emperor's will to rectify the corruption in the examination room! My lord and I are following the order to handle the case!"

Suo'etu said: "I am a piece of soft tofu, and I have a good temper. I listen to you in everything."

Hearing this, Obai's eyes widened to the size of the lantern, and he said, "What? Offended someone, and you Ahma want to blame everything on me?"

Suo'etu said: "My Ama doesn't have one! It's all said by Prince Zhuang. He scolded me for a long time at my house, scolding me Ama for not being assertive in doing things, and only listening to Master Ao in everything. What's so ugly He scolded him for everything."

Obai looked at Suo'etu and said with a sneer, "Your Mama and I have been court officials for many years, I know he is an old fox!"

Suo'etu said: "I am timid, unlike you, Mr. Ao, who is smart and courageous, and is highly valued by the emperor. Mr. Ao, my nephew is here to visit, it is really for your own good!"

Aobai asked, "For my own good? How can you tell me what is good for me?"

Suo'etu followed his father's words: "There were people behind Li Zhenye, but now he was killed, and the people who supported him lost face, so they encouraged Prince Zhuang to come forward. Prince Zhuang's son was killed. I want those people to help him make trouble! If you don’t kill these two people, Prince Zhuang and the others will be angry, and things will be difficult for you in the future!”

Obai said: "Nephew, you have served the emperor with me for many years, and you know my temper. It is not difficult for me to kill a few people, just arrange something to make the emperor nod. But, after all, they are wronged." !"

Suo'etu said: "Master Ao, in fact, Prince Zhuang and the others just want to vent their anger, and it's the same to kill anyone."

After Suo'etu said this, he deliberately looked at Ao Bai with strange eyes.Obai heard what Suo'etu meant, and immediately became furious, "What do you mean, Prince Zhuang and the others still want to kill me?"

Suo'etu bowed his head to make amends, and said, "How dare my nephew think so? I'm just trying to figure out what Prince Zhuang and the others mean."

Ao Bai glared at Suo Etu with a gloomy face, until his scalp was numb, and he sneered after a long time: "The arrest of Li Zhenye was an order from the emperor himself. There are rumors outside that Chen Tingjing reported on Li Zhenye, but what is going on?" Did it come from Chen Tingjing? There are two opinions out there, some say you asked it out, and some say Mingzhu asked it out. My nephew, if I want to do business with Prince Zhuang and the others, should I kill you or Mingzhu? Woolen cloth?"

Suo'etu was not afraid when he heard this, but he knelt down and said, "my nephew is incompetent and was tricked by Mingzhu. The emperor asked me to escort Chen Tingjing to Shuntian Mansion, but Chen Tingjing was robbed on the way. But Mingzhu found it without anyone noticing, and it was Mingzhu who asked Chen Tingjing for the examination case."

Obai shouted loudly: "Nephew, you mean that I will kill Mingzhu too? You go back and tell your lord that killing a few people is a trivial matter, but how dare you put it on the table today!"

Suo'etu's mouth was not soft either, and said: "Master Ao, you know that some things really won't be put on the table!"

Suo'etu invited Ann to say goodbye and went back.He told Ama exactly what Aobai had said, and he said that the old man would not eat oil and salt.Sony shook his head and smiled, and said: "Silly son, who did Oboi agree to kill so easily? You just need to pass the words to him, and he will think about it!"

Not long after Suo'etu left, Aobai called Mingzhu to the mansion.Mingzhu heard that Suo Etu instigated Oboi to kill him, she was surprised and hated, said: "Lord Oboi, there is no one in Suo's family who is really loyal to the court!"

Ao Bai nodded and said: "I know about this guy Sony. He and I jointly handled the case according to the order. Now that he offended someone, he blamed me and asked me to come forward to kill him. It's only my fault that the old man is used to playing tricks on the outside. It means that as long as I was there, I did it. Sony can make excuses when it happens, but I have nothing to do. It seems that if I don’t put on airs, I won’t be able to pass this test.”

But Ming Zhu said: "My lord, you are acting for Prince Zhuang and the others, and Prince Zhuang and the others are for the emperor to see!"

Aobai looked at Ming Zhu with admiration immediately, and said: "Ming Zhu, this old man is right, you are really smart! I only dare to keep what you said in my heart, but I dare not say it like a human being!"

Mingzhu said: "The emperor ascended the throne when he was young, and he has been relying on those princes for many years. It has become a habit for a long time! After the emperor took office, people all over the world look up to the emperor to become a generation of heroes, but some princes are not happy!"

Ao Bai sighed: "I have experienced many battles, I don't know what to be afraid of. If a Baylor is killed, he will be killed. What is there to be afraid of? But I have to take care of the peace of the court! As a minister, I have to think about the emperor and the overall situation. Exactly what you said, they want to kill a few people and tell the emperor, they can't afford to offend, the emperor can't kill whoever he wants. They want me to kill for them, and the heads are ordered, Wei Xiangshu , Chen Tingjing, and you!"

Mingzhu pulled up her clothes and knelt down, and said with great emotion: "Master Ao, if you have any difficulties, please use me for surgery! As long as the monarch and ministers are in harmony and the court is peaceful, Mingzhu will die! But Mingzhu, please let Chen Tingjing go!"

Aobai was very strange and asked, "You protect Chen Tingjing so much, why?"

Mingzhu replied: "Chen Tingjing is a rare talent, the emperor has given Mingzhu a secret order!"

But Aobai said: "To kill you, of course you have to kill Chen Tingjing. Prince Zhuang and the others know that it was you who asked Chen Tingjing about the examination case."

Mingzhu was still kneeling, with her neck straight, and said: "Mingzhu's head is on her shoulders, and I can take it off now. Lord Ao, Chen Tingjing must never be killed!"

Aobai laughed loudly, and said, "Mingzhu, get up and talk. I figured it out. You are protecting Chen Tingjing so hard, but you are actually protecting your own head. You know that your head is connected with Chen Tingjing's." The old man has a way, just kill Wei Xiangshu and Chen Tingjing, and make you a good person in front of Prince Zhuang and the others!"

Mingzhu pretended that she didn't understand what Aobai said, her eyes widened, and she listened to him speak slowly.Aobai said: "Chen Tingjing came back to Shanxi and fought fiercely with Fu Shan, the remnant of the Ming Dynasty. We can use this to make a fuss. What about you? Let people believe that it was Chen Tingjing who told the truth about the case in the examination room. Who We all know that Suo'etu was ordered to arrest Chen Tingjing at that time."

Mingzhu understood, and asked, "Master Ao, you want to let the outside world know that it was Suo'etu who made the first contribution in finding out the case in the examination room?"

Aobai nodded and said, "That's exactly what it means!"

Mingzhu was still puzzled, and asked: "But Chen Tingjing's friendship with Fu Shan and the denunciation of the examination case, these two things are completely irrelevant!"

Aobai smiled triumphantly, and said: "What we want is that horses and horses don't matter. Who dares to punish Chen Tingjing for the case in the examination room? Asking Wei Xiangshu's crime is easier to deal with. I have already received the report against him." Excerpts are ready, just in time for the Emperor!"

On the second day, Oboi went to Qianqing Palace to report to the emperor, saying: "The minister received the secret report. When Chen Tingjing returned to Shanxi, he had a close relationship with Fu Shan, the remnant of the Ming Dynasty!"

In fact, the emperor had already received Wu Daoyi's secret report, but he pretended to be confused: "Really? Why didn't I know about this? If that's the case, Wu Daoyi should have made a secret report." The emperor originally said to Wu Daoyi The reason why Chen Tingjing and the Shanxi Governor's Yamen had a festival was because of the Qiuwei case in Taiyuan last year.He also thought that because of this public case, Wu Daoyi is now a footman, and it is not certain that he deliberately troubled Chen Tingjing.

Aobai didn't expect the emperor to pay much attention to this matter, so he said again: "Chen Tingjing is talented and intelligent, and he knows people well. The emperor appreciates it, and this minister knows it. It's just that this person is young and mature, and he is unfathomable. Knowing that the remaining crimes are true, I am afraid that raising tigers will cause trouble!"

The emperor became more and more suspicious when he heard it, and said: "Oboi, you are my vassal minister, and I trust you the most. You can tell me clearly, what is your intention? A scholar who has just passed the Jinshi, he deserves you Do you take him to heart?"

Aobai said: "My emperor is wise, I dare not deceive the emperor, I just report it truthfully. I have also received a copy here, and I am about to submit it to the emperor. What I am suing is that Wei Xiangshu, as the president of the examination, forgot the king of the world. It is the selfishness of fellow villagers that there are actually eight people in Shanxi Province who are Chinese."

The emperor fully understood this time, and said with a smile: "Oboi, you still say you dare not deceive the emperor! To be honest, the case in the examination room is over, and someone is looking for trouble, right?"

Aobai secretly admired the emperor for his dexterity, and thought that since the matter had been clarified, it would be better to explain the ins and outs.He originally wanted to follow Prince Zhuang's wishes and kill Wei Xiangshu and others to settle the matter, so that he could walk in the future.Now he wants to simply let the emperor come out and clean up Prince Zhuang's group, so that it will be more convenient for him to do things in the future.After making up his mind, Aobai deliberately said: "I'm going to say something damn, Prince Zhuang and the others are not looking for trouble for my minister, they are looking for trouble for the emperor!"

The emperor was really furious when he heard this, and it was really the opposite!Aobai hurriedly knelt down to plead guilty, cursing himself for making the emperor angry, it was just a matter of necessity, and he had to play the truth.The emperor calmed down after losing his temper, and asked, "Tell me, what do they want to do?"

Aobai replied, "They want to kill Wei Xiangshu, Mingzhu, and Chen Tingjing."

The emperor asked again: "Who ordered these heads?"

Aobai said: "What Suo'etu said was what Prince Zhuang and the others meant!"

The emperor sneered and said, "I think that's what he, Amasoni, wants to do! Sonny wants to use these heads to please Prince Zhuang and the others!"

Aobai thought that the emperor is really a god, and even a penny can't hide from the emperor's magic eyes, so he said: "The emperor is wise, and I also guessed this way in private."

The emperor said: "I know about this matter. Oboi, the remnants of the previous Ming Dynasty are about to move, and we have to guard against it, but there is no need to make the wind panic and the shadow of a snake. You go down."

Aobai Xie En left the palace, thinking that he just waited for the emperor to make a decision.Since the emperor came to power, those princes have been convicted for a while, rehabilitated for a while, lost their titles for a while, and restored to their titles for a while, and their prestige has almost stopped.The regent Dorgon has made great achievements, and the emperor will pursue his crimes after his death, let alone Prince Zhuang?
