Chapter 102: Disasters fall from heaven

It is the emperor's grace that Shi Heng can stay at home. It is not uncommon for the people of the Shi family to cause trouble. Shi Biao is his nephew, but he dare not make any big moves now. But some people in the family can't understand it, and the descendants of the Shi family have always been used to being arrogant. Guang Shi Heng's letter of guilt has only resisted for a while. You must know that the people in the Fufu Department have been staring at his family, and Lu Gao stared at him and wanted to make meritorious contributions.

Shi Heng had a nephew named Shi Hou, who had always been a counselor of Shi Hou. He was different from his uncle. He was a scholar. Shi Biao was a military man, but Shi Hou was a literati. So Shi Heng trusted him very much and asked him to handle important documents. The Shi family had many customers and raised a group of people. Shi Heng was implicated by Shi Biao this time, but the emperor did not let Shi Heng go to prison. This matter can be seen in two ways. Many of them saw disasters.

Queen Shi became worried that Shi Biao's affairs would affect the entire Shi family.

"The uncle was the reason why he was in charge of the rule of the emperor because when King Hui was in charge of politics, he was not at ease with the military power of our Shi family. I heard that the emperor is the same now. He has Cao Jixiang around him and slandered him every day. Now the emperor is wary of you, how can he still trust you? Shi Biao has nothing to do in the border area, but Lu Gao thought he was a rebellious. In fact, his uncle was just a little more expensive. Although my aunt is the Princess of Ola, he should not blame his uncle. That was because the emperor refused to accept it, and the aunt married my uncle. How could this be called robbery? What if my new mansion is beautiful? What those people are nagging all day long is nothing but they can't see my wealth."

"I believe that I am loyal to Your Majesty. Yu Qian doesn't trust me. Those scholars have always looked down on us. You must know that our military achievements are hard-won and lick blood from the edge of a knife. Li Xian and the others have long wanted to find fault with us. If I hadn't been for the Shi family..."

"The Shi family's wealth cannot be seen by others... You are rich and noble. Didn't the fortune teller's blind boy say that you can still be promoted?" said Shi Hou.

"Do you believe the blind boy's words? He is just cheating on some food." Shi Heng said.

"I don't believe it, but some people believe it. Only after someone believes it, do we follow our family to seek wealth. Our family's customers think so."

"Aren't people leaving now?" Shi Heng said, "Those people are just here to eat, I can understand..."

"Not that, those who leave are all villains, and those who stay here are all dedicated to our Shi family. The most important thing in our Shi family is that there are still some loyal people..." said Shi Hou, "As long as we tell the world that the current injustice will definitely stand on our side. The emperor now believes in Cao Jixiang and deliberately seeks trouble with our Shi family. You must know that the world is not perfect, and the house is better built, how can it be a crime? Only let the emperor see the loyalty of our Shi family..."

"Can he see?" Shi Heng sighed, "After all, I have done something unscrupulous. I shouldn't have pushed Yu Qian and the others to death back then. Now it's my turn. This mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. When Xu Youzhen leaves, I should know, but what can I do now?" Shi Heng said, "I just want the emperor to spare the life of the whole family..."

"Maybe things can turn the corner..." said Shi Hou, "Didn't you do it back then? You carried him out of the Nangong today! Actually, you might as well do it again."

"Who will carry out?" Shi Heng sneered, "all the vassal kings in the capital have returned."

"When they go back? There is no prince. Now King De is twelve. You have seen him. He is handsome... I thought it was good last time. Why not let the emperor continue to be the emperor? Then wouldn't Cao Jixiang lose his backer? Aren't his people unable to jump up again? I know he is not a good man. His son has always had ambitions. We are for the Ming Dynasty."

"How could the emperor know about your loyalty... Now that the Cao family has been soaked in the court, I am afraid that I will gain a bad reputation." Shi Heng said.

"This is not your style. I remember that you have always been brave enough to move forward. All your great military achievements are real. Cao Jixiang died of eunuchs, without any skills, but just supervised the army behind and seized military achievements... Our disciples just told some facts, so what can we do?" said Shi Hou.

"But……"

"What else are you?" said the queen of Shi. "The longer the time, the less likely we will win. The blind man said that he was right. We should have acted earlier and should not wait for them to drive us out."

Shi Heng nodded and shook his head. This was too risky: "We have missed the best opportunity, I am afraid that this will bring disaster to my family."

This uncle is afraid of wolves in front of him and tigers in the back. When the stone queen looked at his uncle, he felt 100% disagreement. This person often forced him to be powerful in the middle of the family, but after all, he was old and he was no longer decisive in his work.

"This guy Shi Heng... actually wants me to be the Supreme Emperor again?"

The ears and eyes are everywhere, so there are ears and ears among the guests in Shiheng Mansion. In addition, Lu Gao was determined to make contributions, so he began to add fuel to the fire.

There are actually loopholes in Lu Gao's additions. Zhu Qizhen will not trust only one person now. His eyes and ears are not just Lu Gao. Menda has another statement, which may be more fair, but he can't let it go.

Cao Jixiang has many sources of information. He and Shi Heng were disagreeing for a moment, and no one was willing to share the power. It is said that Shi Heng had lost his power in the court, but he still did not hesitate to step on it again. If the emperor was soft-hearted and re-activated Shi Heng, the power of the Shi family would make a comeback. He was the eunuch of the Silijian around the emperor, and it was difficult to know all the decrees. He knew about the emperor's movements, but now he was a little uneasy and could not explain why. Since Shi Heng fell out of favor, he could not enter the palace at will. However, because he was a eunuch, he naturally had many opportunities to come and go freely inside and outside the palace. No one in the palace did not flatter him, but the people in the comforting department were really hateful, especially those few thorns. Now Lu Gao seemed to be working hard to deal with Shi Heng. There was no need to stop him, and he should even add a fire.

"Emperor..." Cao Jixiang said, "Lu Qianhu is a loyal and righteous man. What he said must be based on. Although the old slave is not good, he can still see it." He smiled. This eunuch is the best, but Lu Gao doesn't really appreciate his affection. He is a traitor. The civil and military officials in the court are so talking about it. It's just that he covers the sky with one hand, and no one dares to be angry.

"I will not lie," Lu Gao said, "Just say anything. I feel that if I let Shi Heng go, I am afraid that the ministers will have opinions. He has always been arrogant and domineering. Shi Biao rebelled, so he cannot be without responsibility. If he is allowed to be at home, wouldn't it be too comfortable?"

"Shi Aiqing is old, and not to mention that Shi Biao has no connection with him. If he has any mistakes, he will not be disciplined," the emperor said, "unless... unless Shi Heng also participates in the rebellion..."

"I heard that preventing troubles before it happens. I heard that Shi Heng was very uneasy at home... the people around him... were all talking bad things about you, the emperor..." Cao Jixiang didn't read much, and he couldn't say a lot of literary words.

Although Lu Gao looked down on Cao Jixiang, he still heard this sentence. He was determined to make contributions.

Zhu Qizhen looked up and looked outside. The eunuchs around him were the most popular ones. Niu Yu was the eunuch who was holding the seal. He was watching from the side without saying anything. This was a play, and it was sung for the emperor. No matter what Niu Yu said, it was not appropriate, because what the emperor thought in his heart could not be put on the surface. For the emperor, no matter whether it was true or false, he would not be allowed to take it lightly. What the emperor wanted to do, he did not need others to say anything.
