As soon as Wang Bo found the treasure, he turned around and ran away. Jia Yingfang grabbed him and warned him, "Your Majesty, please don't forget what I just said."
"I know! I know! Although you reminded me, I myself have been paying attention to the Beijing News. This is a fact."
"The main reason is that Mr. Qin is suspicious. I'm afraid he will suspect that I have ulterior motives."
Wang Bo smiled and said: "Don't worry! I know it in my heart and will say that I arranged it."
Wang Bo got on his horse and ran towards the Prime Minister's Mansion with his two followers. He knew that his uncle had a bad stomach and would go home for lunch at noon, so he must be in the mansion at this time.
As expected, Qin Hui was in the mansion. Hearing that his nephew had something urgent to do with him, he asked his housekeeper to take Wang Bo to wait outside his study.
After Wang Bo properly handled the assassination of Zhou Kuan, Qin Hui looked at Wang Bo with admiration. In addition, his wife blew her pillow every day and asked him to support his nephew more. Qin Hui also felt that Wang Bo might have started to change his gender. He was not like before.
So ridiculous.
Not long after, Qin Hui came to the study. Wang Bo quickly stood up and saluted respectfully, "My nephew, meet my uncle!"
Qin Hui smiled gently and said, "What's the emergency?"
"Today's "Beijing News", my nephew thinks there is something fishy in it!"
Qin Hui was slightly startled. He also flipped through tonight's "Beijing News" and found nothing strange!
"Go into the study and talk!"
Qin Hui walked into the study and sat down. His wife Wang also came in and sat aside. Qin Hui was used to it. His wife liked to be involved in politics and she would give him advice on many things.
Wang Bo also greeted his aunt and handed the newspaper to Qin Hui, "For uncle, it's in the literature column!"
Qin Hui was a little surprised. His nephew had always been uneducated, so when did he care about literature? On second thought, he suddenly thought of novels, and he knew in his heart that this child might like to read serialized novels in the literature column.
The first thing most people in Lin'an did when they got the Beijing News was to quickly browse the current affairs news. If there was nothing they were interested in, they immediately turned to the literature section and read serial novels. Even Emperor Zhao Gou did the same.
.
Qin Hui turned to the literature column on the third page and browsed through it, but found nothing strange!
"Uncle, take a look at the new works of celebrities. They are Li Gang's new lyrics."
Upon hearing the name Li Gang, Qin Hui's heart moved and he immediately took a closer look.
It was "The Song of the Water Dragon. Guangwu Battles Kunyang". After reading this poem, Qin Hui took a breath of air. What does Li Gang want to do? Is he advocating that Chen Qing is the master of ZTE?
Now that Chen Qing was about to launch a war in the Central Plains, Li Gang suddenly published a new phrase about Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu's war in the Central Plains. This is a typical insinuation!
The literati of the Tang and Song dynasties would not criticize the government directly, but would use the past to describe the present. Therefore, when reading a work, you always need to analyze the historical background to understand the author's intentions. Those in power are not fools, so officials in the Tang and Song dynasties often
Being demoted because of his literary works is actually not unfair at all.
Qin Hui glanced at his nephew suspiciously. He knew that Wang Bo was a playboy with no knowledge and skills. With his level, how could he see the strangeness of this poem.
"Did you really discover this?" Qin Hui asked.
Wang Bo was well prepared. He knew he could not hide it from his uncle, so he quickly said: "Ever since my uncle told my nephew to keep an eye on the "Beijing News", my nephew has been paying attention to the content of the "Beijing News" every day. He also knows that his talents are limited.
, so I specifically asked a few of my subordinates to keep an eye on it for me, and this time one of my staff discovered it."
What his subordinates found for him was pretty much the same. Wang Bo was not as good as Wang Bo. However, Wang Bo remembered his instructions and remained vigilant. This was very good and made Qin Hui very satisfied.
Being an official doesn't mean you have to do everything yourself. Being able to make good use of your subordinates is also a skill.
"I understand. You have done well and made great progress this time. I hope to hear good news about you next time."
Wang Bo said excitedly: "My nephew will definitely work hard and will not let my uncle down!"
Even Mrs. Wang could tell that her husband was sincerely complimenting her, and she couldn't help but smile. But when Wang Bo left, Mrs. Wang said: "Master, now Bo'er is making a difference."
"I can't say he is very promising, but he has indeed made progress. He knows how to listen to the advice of his subordinates. He is not like before, who didn't understand anything but was self-righteous. He has become more mature."
"Master, does Bo'er realize that this time things are meaningful?"
"significance?"
Qin Hui sneered and said: "Let me tell you, this time Li Gang is dead. Regardless of whether he made an honest mistake or not, the emperor will never use him again. Originally the emperor was not interested in him, but Xu Xiantu insisted on recommending him. Last time Zheng Tongquan
Xu Xiantu beat me until I vomited blood, so I will take revenge on him this time."
"Could this poem be deliberately arranged by the Beijing News?"
Qin Hui thought for a while and said: "This possibility cannot be ruled out, but it is more likely that Li Gang's disciples learned about his comeback and sent poems to the newspaper to celebrate. The atmosphere of the words used is fine, but they should use Jingxiang poems instead of
You should use words from Nanyang."
Wang hesitated, "What if Xu Xiantu explained that Nanyang belonged to Jingzhou in the Han Dynasty? It doesn't make sense at all. Chen Qing's rebellion was eliminated and the Song Dynasty was revived."
Qin Hui took a few steps with his hands behind his back. He had to admit that what his wife said was somewhat reasonable. This song "Water Dragon Song. Guangwu Battles Kunyang" is a bit ambiguous. It can be said to be Chen Qing's Battle of the Central Plains or Li Gang's.
Jinghu South Road was restored, and in order to prove Li Gang's crime, circumstantial evidence had to be found.
Qin Hui said coldly: "If I arrange for someone to look for what he wrote again, I won't believe that we can't find any evidence!"
Several of Qin Hui's staff were very capable and found key circumstantial evidence for Qin Hui in less than an hour. Li Gang wrote a poem last year, "Shui Long Yin Taizong Lin Wei Shang", which was written around October last year.
, it happened to be the moment when Chen Qing's army attacked Datong Mansion. Even if this poem did not allude to Chen Qing, it was still highly suspicious.
This time Qin Hui did not explain anything specifically to the emperor Zhao Gou. He put the "Beijing News" and the poem he found in a box and presented it to the emperor.
That night, a decree came out from the palace, appointing Li Gang to be in charge of Zhangzhou affairs, and ordered him to take up his post immediately.
Xu Xiantu was really shocked and didn't know what happened. He asked the emperor early the next morning. Zhao Gou didn't say the reason. He just said that Li Gang was old and was not suitable to lead the army again, so he needed to consider another suitable candidate.
This result made Xu Xiantu extremely depressed. Originally, Li Gang had been farming in the Dongting Lake area for five years and had a high popularity among the people. He was appointed as the Xuanfu envoy, which was the most suitable one to compete with Chen Qing for the support of the people. Unexpectedly, the emperor actually vetoed it.
Xu Xiantu was really unwilling to give in, and he wanted to fight for it again.
"Your Majesty, we are competing with Chen Qing for Jinghu South Road. Unless the two sides are completely hostile, they will not resort to force easily. In the final analysis, it is a battle for the people's hearts. If you follow the orthodoxy and the people's hearts are attached to you, Chen Qing will not be able to compete with us. This
That's why Wei Chen recommended Li Gang. Li Gang has served as the farming ambassador in the Dongting Lake area for five years and has won the hearts of the people. He is the most suitable person."
Zhao Gou looked out the window with his hands behind his back and said coldly: "You recommended Zhe Yanzhi to me at the beginning. You said he was loyal to his family and country and would never betray. What was the result?"
"Your Majesty, Li Gang and Zhe Yanzhi"
Zhao Gou waved his hand and interrupted him, "No need to persuade me any more. I have decided to appoint Zhu Shengfei, the Prime Minister of the Left, as the envoy of Jinghu and Jinghu Roads. He will be stationed in Ezhou, command Jingxiang's army, and retake the Jinghu South Road for me."
"Zhu Shengfei?"
Xu Xiantu was stunned. Before he could speak again, Emperor Zhao Gou had already turned around and walked away, "Go back to the palace!"
The eunuchs and guards gathered around Zhao Gou and sat on the dragon chariot back to the palace. Xu Xiantu stood at the door of the imperial study and let out a long sigh.
At this time, Tao Lin, the scholar on duty, came over and said with a smile: "Ms. Xu, how about we go have a drink together?"
Xu Xiantu nodded, and the two of them got on the carriage and arrived at the Sanyuan Restaurant on East Street. They went directly into the private dining room, which was a private room and was very convenient for talking.
Tao Lin poured a full glass of wine for Xu Xiantu and said with a smile: "I know you are angry about Li Gang, but you don't know why Li Gang was abandoned by the emperor."
"Why?"
Tao Lin took out a newspaper and handed it to him, "Read it yourself! This is yesterday's newspaper."
