"Master Liu, do you think I don't know that you haven't been in your room for a long time? If I guess correctly, it should have been two hours, right?"
"Besides, this officer is not just guessing. Someone deliberately told me in private!"
Liu Dingguo was shocked when he suddenly heard such an affirmative answer from him.
He was not only absent for two hours, he was not in his room for the entire afternoon and morning.
It was precisely because he wanted to avoid meeting Chu Mobai that he hid in the backyard. Everyone in the Ministry of War and Yamen knew where he was and deliberately did not tell Chu Mobai.
But Cui Wenhong's words made Liu Dingguo feel scared.
After all, only the entire Ministry of War knew how long Liu Dingguo had been hiding, and if someone from the Ministry of War yamen told Cui Wenhong, this matter would be a big deal.
This shows that someone within the Ministry of War yamen tipped off the Metropolitan Procuratorate. The Metropolitan Procuratorate has always been incompatible with the six yamen, and none of the six yamen would like people from the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
Thinking of such a terrifying thing, Liu Dingguo felt a little numb.
Cui Wenhong continued.
"It seems that Mr. Liu has acquiesced to the fact that he has derelict in his duties. If this is the case, I will not say anything more. After I return to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, I will verify the situation and prepare to write a memorial."
"I hope Mr. Liu doesn't have to worry. All of this is just my duty. I will not add any embellishments to the memorial at will, let alone unjustly accuse Mr. Liu."
After saying these words, Cui Wenhong was ready to leave.
But Liu Dingguo did not hesitate and stopped him quickly.
"Master Cui! Master Cui, don't leave!"
"Cui, what do you mean by this? Are you making fun of me? I have never offended you, but now in front of so many colleagues, do you have to make me so embarrassed?"
Liu Dingguo was obviously angry. What did Cui Wenhong mean by treating him like this?
He still said with an angry look on his face.
"You censors are all the same. If you have the ability, just go back and write a memorial to impeach me now. I don't care anymore!"
Liu Dingguo originally thought that saying these words would scare Cui Wenhong, but Cui Wenhong looked indifferent.
Liu Dingguo obviously despised Cui Wenhong's attitude.
Cui Wenhong is a civil servant with a very strong bones. Except for the incident with Qian Ruoyu, he has never been in any weak state. He is fearless when facing any official.
Liu Dingguo was obviously a military attache. He originally thought that frightening Cui Wenhong would make Cui Wenhong afraid, but he did not expect that this incident would intensify Cui Wenhong's determination again.
Cui Wenhong sneered.
"Okay, Mr. Liu, since you have already made up your mind, what else can I say?"
Liu Dingguo's eyes flashed with surprise, and he regretted it.
If I had known that Cui Wenhong was so stubborn, he wouldn't have said such a thing.
Just when he was about to give in, Chu Mobai walked towards the corridor from the hall.
"Master Liu!"
Chu Mobai shouted loudly.
"Master Liu, you made me wait so hard!"
One thing is unresolved and it happens again.
The reason why he was hiding behind was to avoid Chu Mobai, but he did not expect that Chu Mobai would take the initiative to stand up at this time, and Qian Ruoyu did not follow Chu Mobai.
Qian Ruoyu knew very well that just being able to sit in the hall was considered a good thing. If he continued to follow him, he might be suspected of interfering in politics.
Although Qian Ruoyu had the consciousness behind all this, Qian Ruoyu knew that he must stick to this bottom line and not let anyone use this as an excuse to slander Chu Mobai.
Chu Mobai walked over and said directly to Liu Dingguo.
"Lord Liu, I need military talismans to mobilize troops. I have discussed it with several generals in the imperial court and also made an agreement with you, Lord Shangshu, to dispatch 6,000 troops to Jiayuguan. I am waiting for your military talismans now."
Cui Wenhong did not speak at this time.
Because Cui Wenhong knew that the main purpose of Qian Ruoyu asking him to help was to enable Chu Mobai to find Liu Dingguo.
He already knew the outcome of this matter when he saw Chu Mobai, so naturally he would not talk too much at this time.
Liu Dingguo wanted to find something to shirk, but Chu Mobai continued.
"Master Liu, you don't have to ask me to find anyone to approve this matter. Your Majesty has already agreed. It's just to dispatch 6,000 troops and horses, and this military talisman is in your hands."
"Master Cui happens to be here too. You wouldn't say that your military talisman is not in your hand, right? Did you lose the military talisman?"
Chu Mobai also realized at this time that Cui Guotong was indeed here, which made things easier, so he spoke.
Liu Dingguo was surrounded by Chu Mobai and Cui Wenrong on the left and right. There was no way he could get rid of both of them at the same time.
And if the soldier talisman is not taken out at this time, Cui Wenhong on the side will intervene again.
In desperation, Liu Dingguo had no choice but to nod and said with a bitter look.
"Well, Master Shangshu also told me about this matter... indeed... it does require three transfer orders and military symbols, but this matter has yet to be discussed... not to mention that the Ministry of Revenue has not allocated any money..."
Just when he was about to continue to evade, Qian Ruoyu took out a piece of paper.
"No need, the Ministry of Revenue has already given you the silver. This is the grain silver used to dispatch six thousand troops. The total is eighteen thousand taels of silver. With your military talisman added, it can be sent to the three border towns."
Chu Mobai naturally knew that if both sides failed to solve the problem, they would shirk each other, so he immediately went to the Ministry of Revenue and tried his best to get the documents issued by the Ministry of Revenue, and then went to the Yamen of the Ministry of War to waste time.
Liu Dingguo never expected that things would develop like this, and he had no choice but to shirk time at this time, so he had no choice but to nod and return to his room.
Not long after, he appeared in front of Chu Mobai with another document and a military talisman.
He handed over the documents and military symbols with helpless hands.
"Your Majesty, this is what you want."
Although he looked helpless, Chu Mobai was extremely happy in his heart. He never thought that Cui Wenhong would help him in this matter.
And he knew without even thinking that Cui Wenhong was obviously related to Qian Ruoyu, and he couldn't even imagine what his woman had done to make Cui Wenhong come over.
How could she, a womanly woman, know eunuchs and even get Cui Wenhong to take the initiative to help? I'm really curious!
However, she does have some demeanor as a matron, and can be considered a qualified princess.
Chu Mobai himself usually disliked the imperial censors like Cui Wenhong, but now he felt that the censorial doctors were a bit cute.
