Chapter 943 942 [Kill three eagles with one stone]

Wang Pingzhang had seen many storms and waves in his life, and he would definitely not be easily knocked down. Even after the emperor expressed his attitude, he still maintained a calm state of mind.

The seriousness of today's matter can be great or small, it all depends on the emperor's thoughts.

If this matter is to be characterized as a private conspiracy between various forces, it can be expanded without limit. Presumably the emperor does not care about killing more people, but what are the consequences of doing so?

Behind Lin He was Silent Cloud, behind Liu Fei was the second prince, and behind Wang Jiuxuan was him, the powerful duke. It was easy for the emperor to raise the butcher's knife, but the end result was not that simple.

At present, it seems that the reason why Emperor Kaiping was really angry was because Lin He kept mentioning those old things again and again. In fact, during the private meeting last year, Wang Pingzhang was keenly aware that Emperor Kaiping didn't care. Whether Chen Xizhi is still alive or not, he pays more attention to whether Pei Yue can continue as required.

However, Emperor Kaiping was so tolerant of Pei Yue, which did not mean that others could use the topic to their advantage, otherwise rumors would inevitably spread in the capital, and it might even affect his reputation.

After clarifying the context, Wang Pingzhang said calmly while thinking about which step to retreat: "Your Majesty, I have one more thing to say."

Emperor Kaiping said indifferently: "Speak."

Wang Pingzhang didn't care about the emperor's indifferent expression at the moment. He would naturally retreat when it was time to retreat. For example, other members of the Wang family except Wang Jiuxuan were promoted openly and secretly. As long as it does not affect the overall situation in his mind, this old man can satisfy the emperor. .But Wang Jiuxuan is not Li Bingzhong, and he is not a chess piece that he will give up casually. If he retreats at this time, he will be facing a cliff.

He lowered his head slightly and said calmly: "Your Majesty, although Wang Jiuxuan is young and ignorant, he is the commander of the imperial army appointed by your Majesty. He has always been grateful for the emperor's favor and dare not do anything wrong. Now just because the Weinan County Prince has no substantiated frame-up, he It would be depressing to be accused of colluding with both internal and external parties. If you can frame a minister without any evidence, what will happen if both the DPRK and the Chinese government follow suit in the future?"

Liu Fei did not dare to face the scrutiny of Emperor Kaiping, but he was not too afraid of Wang Pingzhang. Hearing the words, he said forcefully: "Wei Guogong, as the saying goes, flies don't bite seamless eggs, let alone who dares to talk nonsense in front of the emperor? If Wang Jiuxuan didn't By participating in this matter, are Lin He and I both risking our lives to frame him?"

Wang Pingzhang flicked his sleeves and said calmly: "According to the logic of the prince, then the Marquis of Zhongshan is indeed colluding with those thieves?"

Liu Fei was speechless. He wanted to nod in agreement, but at the moment he could not continue to provoke Pei Yue, the master of suffering.

After Wang Pingzhang suppressed him lightly, he looked at Emperor Kaiping and said sincerely: "Your Majesty, I think this is an example that cannot be tolerated, and this trend must not rise!"

Emperor Kaiping remained silent.

He admitted in his heart that Wang Pingzhang's words made sense. Over the years, the court situation in Daliang had been operating stably, and the court disputes were within control. If only because of Lin He and Liu Fei's accusations, Wang Jiuxuan would be punished without any evidence. , it is very likely that the future court will become chaotic.

Thinking of this, he looked up at Pei Yue where the old god was, feeling slightly disappointed in his heart.

Since you want to dig a hole for them, why don't you handle things more properly?

I have to take into account Wang Pingzhang's dignity to some extent. After all, he is still a military commander in the West. Millions of soldiers in Daliang regard him as a military god. Do you think you can trick Wang Jiuxuan to death just by accusing him?

After thinking for a long time, Emperor Kaiping said slowly: "Pei Yue, as a sufferer, do you have anything to say about this matter?"

Pei Yue took a step forward and stood shoulder to shoulder with Wang Pingzhang, and said calmly: "Your Majesty, I did not personally attend the scene last night. Since Wang Jiuxuan was not caught on the spot, and the Weinan County Prince could not provide evidence, the crime of conspiracy cannot be concluded. It is just that I

I feel that since they have been in contact before, they will definitely leave traces, so we will send someone to investigate thoroughly."

Every time he said something, the chill in Wang Jiuxuan's heart became stronger.

Emperor Kaiping asked again: "Now that Taishitai Pavilion is also involved, which yamen do you think should investigate?"

Under normal circumstances, this kind of major matter is usually led by the Ministry of Punishment, supervised by Yushitai, and reviewed by Dali Temple, which is what the world often calls the joint trial of the Three Law Departments. However, this matter involves Taige officials, clan members, and Xifu Zuo Junji.

Changsun, Gao Qiu, the Minister of Punishment, may not have the guts to get to the bottom of it.

Pei Yue took a breath, cupped his hands and said: "I sincerely request your Majesty to send Luan Yiwei to take action. First, check your residence, business, other courtyards and even all places related to me to see if I have colluded with the traitors. If I am indeed

I have done this kind of thing, and I am willing to give it to Daliang with my head. If I have not done this, please ask the court to clear my name!"

Gu Liang was a little surprised. Pei Yue's move was not in line with the established strategy, so he temporarily changed his mind. Out of trust in the son-in-law Chenglong Kuai, Gu Liang did not show any strange emotions.

Emperor Kaiping looked at Pei Yue with deep eyes and said in a deep voice: "What next?"

Pei Yue continued: "In addition to checking Chen, Luan Yiwei can also check the Duke of Wei's mansion to see if Wang Jiuxuan did not interfere in this matter from beginning to end as he said. The Holy Emperor is above, I firmly believe that he did not

People can confuse right and wrong, but since Wei Guogong insists that his eldest grandson will not make mistakes, let Luan Yiwei investigate everything."

There was a long silence in the Nuan Pavilion.

Silent Cloud sighed secretly. The reason why Pei Yue petitioned like this, apart from the thorough investigation into the matter he said, obviously also had a deeper thought, which was to use this opportunity to let Luan Yiwei rise from the water.

Luan Yiwei has been hidden in darkness for more than 20 years. This is not because the king does not want it to grow and develop, but because the resistance in the court is extremely strong.

On the premise that there is already Taishitai Pavilion, Emperor Zhongzong created another Luan Yiwei. Who would like the existence of these privileged institutions? Although their official ranks are not high, they hold great power and are very likely to cause chaos.

Chao Gang, history books clearly have many precedents.

As the emperor, Taige and Luan Yiwei are his eyes and ears. The best situation is definitely for the two to check and balance each other for his own use. However, Taige's foundation is too deep, and Luan Yiwei cannot go on in an open and honest manner.

The table top thus presents a serious asymmetry.

According to Silent Cloud's understanding of Emperor Kaiping, His Majesty will definitely like this proposal. It has to be said that Pei Yue's ability to seize opportunities is unexpected, and this move can be regarded as the last nail in the break between himself and him in the court. After all, Luan Yi

Wei's appearance means that the importance of Taige will be weakened.

Very smart young man, just...

Silent Cloud was both pleased and worried. Pei Yue's purpose in pulling out Luan Yiwei was probably more than that. He wanted to see clearly the emperor's family background.

After reviewing the case, Emperor Kaiping glanced at all the important ministers and saw that except for Luo Ting, the right-hand ruler, no one else had any objection to Pei Yue's proposal.

Apparently because they all knew that the person involved in this case had a high status and it would be difficult for the Tribunal to investigate, so they had no reason to object.

Thinking about it carefully, Pei Yue, this kid, has a strong desire for revenge. Silent Cloud didn't show mercy to him before, but now he backhanded him tit for tat.

Before the solemn-looking Luo Ting spoke, Emperor Kaiping suppressed his reverie and said decisively: "Lin He was imprisoned as the mastermind, Liu Fei was an accomplice, and returned to the palace to wait for his fate. As for Wang Jiuxuan——"

He paused for a moment, looked at Wang Pingzhang's old appearance at this moment, and said thoughtfully: "I will be relieved of the post of commander of the imperial army. After returning to the palace, I will not be allowed to go out without any orders. I will make a decision after Luan Yiwei finds out the whole story."

The dust has settled.

Wang Pingzhang breathed a sigh of relief. This was the best result. The emperor just wanted to use Pei Yue's suggestion to give Ruan Yiwei a foundation to start, and he would not really continue to investigate.

As long as the people are still there and the words of origin are still there, there will eventually be a time to rise again.

The old man slowly breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Pei Yue, only to find that the other party not only did not show any disappointment, but instead looked very calm and calm.

Looking at this young man's handsome face, he always felt that the other party's plan was more than that.
