Chapter 305 Luo Tong(3/4)
Every absurd and unimaginable thing that happened during the Tianbao period had an even more absurd and selfish reason at the bottom.
Saints are never wrong.
"I also want to get rid of An Lushan." Xue Bai said.
"Okay." Dugu Ming said, "Then there won't be any quarrel between me and Xue Lang because of the holiday between me and Mrs. Guo Guo?"
"In the court, there are many casual acquaintances, but not many are as determined as you and me to deal with An Lushan."
"That's good."
Dugu Ming stopped, looked at the moon in the distance, and sighed.
He had finished what he wanted to say and started walking back.
Xue Bai asked: "Huaixiang was entrusted to the consort by Zhang Bian?"
Dugu Ming didn't wait for him to finish, waved his hand and said: "No."
"But Zhang Bian and An Lushan have always had a good relationship."
"He has good friendship with anyone." Dugu Ming said, "I will not wrong him for this."
He didn't want to talk much about this matter. Between Li Linfu and Zhang Bian, he firmly chose Zhang Bian.
Xue Bai didn't press him to question him.
The two returned to the banquet hall and before entering, Zhang Bian greeted Xue Bai.
"Xue Lang, let's go for a walk together to relieve ourselves of the drunkenness."
After being greeted like this, Xue Bai walked towards the courtyard again, but this time he was with Zhang Bian.
Although Zhang Bian did not sigh, Xue Bai still felt that he heard his sigh.
"It made you laugh."
"Won't."
"You helped me ascend to the throne. You must have never thought that I would be so embarrassed in front of everyone?"
Xue Bai said: "But Prince Consort, you are not unjust, right?"
Zhang Bian stopped, looked around, and said, "Yang Guozhong said you found key evidence. Can you prove my innocence?"
"What I found was evidence that the consort had indeed had an affair with Huai Xiang."
Zhang Bian smiled and shook his head and said: "Don't be kidding me. It's impossible for Ge Nu to defeat me with such a trivial matter."
Xue Bai said: "If Princess Ning makes a big fuss, the saint will immediately hesitate whether to appoint a consort as the prime minister. Everyone knows that the saint dislikes Princess Taiping and Princess Anle very much."
"Stop making trouble." Zhang Bian asked, "What do you want, just say it."
"Okay, let's be honest. The prince-in-law promised to let Wang Zhongsi conquer Nanzhao, which makes me very uneasy."
"This is what the saint meant."
"Is the prince consort helping Anlu Mountain to seek the east of the river?"
"No." Zhang Bian said: "I'm thinking about the overall situation..."
Xue Bai was too lazy to listen to this. If Zhang Bian dared to be friendly with An Lushan, he must teach Zhang Bian a lesson.
This was also the reason for contacting Li Linfu.
Therefore, Li Tengkong understood him and knew where his bottom line was.
"If the prince-in-law is interested in the overall situation, he should keep himself clean."
"That was framed by Brother Nu."
"The lipstick used to carry fragrance is a gift from the emperor." Xue Bai said: "And Dugu Ming was dismissed from his official position by the saint on the Lantern Festival last year, and all the rewards were withdrawn. This year's Shangyuan Festival did not receive any gifts from the saint at all.
The lipstick given."
"With just a lipstick, you can..."
Xue Bai said: "The prince-in-law doesn't believe me, so he doesn't tell me directly?"
Zhang Bian finally stopped arguing and his eyes flickered slightly, guessing that Dugu Ming might have spoken to Xue Bai just now.
"What do you want me to do?"
"Wang Zhongsi can march south, I have no objection to this." Xue Bai said: "But I must keep Hedong, and even replace Anlu Mountain..."
"Why do you have to be his enemy?"
"There are two people in the court whom I have offended to death. One is Li Heng, and the other is An Lushan. These two people will kill me sooner or later, but my consort is on good terms with them."
Zhang Bian smiled and said: "Actually, my friendship with you is the best."
"Then the prince-in-law will go to the table, replace An Lushan, and recommend a Fan Yang Jiedushi who has a close relationship with you. How about that?"
"Xue Bai, you should know that the fact that Brother Nu framed me really doesn't threaten me."
What Zhang Bian said actually means, "You can't threaten me with the little leverage you have."
"I know that the prince-in-law and the right prime minister are fighting, and my attitude is very simple. Whoever can come forward to replace An Lushan and who really wants to save my life, then I will help him."
"Don't forget, you were the one who wanted to elect me as prime minister in the first place..."
"Wang Zhongsi was still in Hedong."
This is not the first time Zhang Bian has felt this dilemma.
This happened occasionally when he was interacting with Dugu Ming. Dugu Ming hated Anlu Mountain with all his heart, but the saint loved Anlu Mountain very much.
The essence of this matter is that Xue Bai and the saint's intentions are completely contrary to each other. Xue Bai is forcing others to stand against the saint.
If you want Xue Bai's help, you have to anger the saint, so how can you still worship the prime minister?
But Zhang Bian is at least one thing better than Li Linfu. He is tolerant and has been trained to be very patient.
"I can agree to this matter, but now is not the time. The saint relies heavily on Anlu Mountain. It is impossible to transfer him at this time. We need to figure it out slowly. You give me three years. When I stabilize the situation in the DPRK, I will be able to
If we find a suitable candidate, we will definitely start." Zhang Bian said: "You can rest assured that Hedong will never fall into the hands of An Lushan."
"It's empty talk, so why don't I show my sincerity first?"
"Okay, I will go to the court after I get rid of Genu." Zhang Bian said: "I will first move Wang Wei to be the official of Zhongshushe, and Yan Zhenqing to be the doctor of the Treasury. How about we work together to get rid of Luo Xishi and then discuss the big issue?"
"
Xue Bai actually didn't have any evidence in his hand, so he just used some guesswork to beat Zhang Bian.
Hearing this, he nodded reluctantly and agreed.
Here I beat Zhang Qian, pushed Wang Wei and Yan Zhenqing up, there I got rid of Luo Xixi, and then beat Li Linfu. Then we will see which of the two fighting cocks is more sincere.
Thinking about this, Xue Bai didn't feel at all that he was just a seventh-grade censor, beating and testing two prime ministers. In fact, what he was doing was the same as Li Longji.
That night, Xue Bai broke the curfew, returned home, and directly wrote a memorial to impeach Luo Xishi.
~~
Yushitai.
"There is a traitor in Yushitai."
When Luo Xishi learned that Xue Bai had impeached him, he didn't take it seriously at all.
While writing a rebuttal memorial, he analyzed the situation with his confidants.
"Xue Bai is impatient to impeach me, so he must mention the Princess Jingle that Du Huming mentioned yesterday, but he doesn't know that the saint hates hearing about Princess Jingle the most..."
In Luo Xishi's memorial, he pointed out ruthlessly that Zhang Bian and Du Huming were complicit and used the death of Princess Jingle to cover up the fact that they had kept wives from outside wives.
At this time, someone reported: "Censor, Yan Wu is here."
After hearing this, Luo Xishi nodded and said, "Let him come in."
Yan Wu is tall and has a stern face. He looks like a cool official as soon as he walks in the door.
"Jingzhao Prefecture's Fa Cao Yanwu has met Luo Yushi."
Luo Xishi nodded repeatedly after seeing this and said: "Fa Cao of Jingzhao Prefecture, when I was still the supervisory censor, I often worked with Ji Wen to handle cases, which made the lawless people in the capital feel frightened. Now I see you,
She is very...more elegant than Ji Wen."
Yan Wu bowed, still cold.
Luo Xishi smiled and said: "I made a mistake. Ji Wen is not worthy to compare with you. You killed someone when you were eight years old, and you killed the person who deserved to be killed. What a good man!"
"yes."
"I heard that although it was Xue Bai who recommended you to this position, you had no interaction with him before. After you arrived in Chang'an, Xue Bai also neglected you?"
"yes."
"What do you think of the Huaixiang case?"
"I will see how Luo Yushi wants me to see it."
Luo Xishi raised his eyebrows, not expecting the stern Yan Wu to be so straightforward.
