After the old eunuch chased him out, Huang Laosi waited patiently.
After a while, Sun An came back, followed by Chu Wensheng.
Lao Chu felt a little guilty.
He always felt that the new king didn't want to see him, so if he was suddenly summoned, would he find trouble and try to demote him?
After entering the hall and saluting, Huang Laosi raised his head, his face expressionless, and his face could even be said to be a little gloomy.
Lao Chu's heart skipped a beat, feeling that his official status might not be guaranteed.
Sun An stood behind Huang Laosi, secretly surprised.
Such a dangerous job, if it were someone else, I would be completely reluctant even if I took it. Why is the emperor still so cold-faced? He shouldn't just smile and call me "Ai Qing" twice, and then promise to be promoted to the rank of Zuo Shilang.
Promoted to Right Assistant Minister?
With a "pop" sound, Huang Laosi suddenly slapped the table: "Chu Wensheng!"
There was no look of surprise on Lao Chu's face, and he knelt down on the ground with a look of resignation: "I know I was wrong."
Huang Laosi sneered: "How did you become the left minister of the Ministry of Industry? Guanghai was your superior. You committed malpractice for personal gain and embezzled official money. Others didn't know. Don't you still know why you concealed it and refused to report it?"
Lao Chu didn't say anything, and looked as if he had admitted his mistake and was being punished.
If I want to retaliate, who can I turn to? Can you trust me if I turn to you?
"That's all. I have asked other officials from the Ministry of Works, and Hiro Haishang is right in what he said. You, the left minister of the Ministry of Works, are really a loser and have no knowledge of civil engineering matters!"
"I know I was wrong."
Sun An was dumbfounded.
Didn't it win over people's hearts? Didn't it deceive Mr. Chu into going deep into the dragon's pond and the tiger's den? How could he be accused of this?
"The corpse was left alone, and you concealed it and refused to report it. Chu Wensheng, what crime do you deserve? You, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, are nothing but a loser."
"If I know my crime, Your Majesty will punish me."
"Punishment, even if I take away your official position, I can't relieve the hatred in my heart!"
Chu Wensheng sighed silently.
This day has finally arrived.
"Sun An."
Sun An, who looked confused, responded subconsciously: "I'm here, old slave."
"Call the Officials and the Minister of Rites to come over and seize Chu Wensheng's..."
Halfway through, Huang Laosi paused and his tone changed slightly: "What, the two ministers are still discussing Liao An's matter?"
Sun An had a question mark on his head.
What the hell are you two ministers? Our family didn’t say anything.
Huang Laosi's tone changed again, slightly dissatisfied: "Have you not found a candidate yet?"
Sun An: "???"
Huang Laosi said to himself: "It's just a barbarian, it's not a quelling chaos. It's a bunch of trash, it's just a barbarian. What's there to be afraid of? Tell them who can go to Liao Hua, the job is done, and replace Chu Wen Shengcheng."
So what if I am promoted to the left minister of the Ministry of Industry, no, I am promoted to the right minister."
Chu Wensheng raised his head and his eyes rolled around.
Sun An continued to be confused.
Huang Laosi slapped the table again: "What the hell, why do you have to choose civil servants or military generals? You can just find a minister who has dealt with Fanman. Do you understand?"
Sun An hesitated for a moment, "Old slave...understand...?"
"Your Majesty." Chu Wensheng finally spoke and asked cautiously: "I am brave, but...which branch rebelled?"
"What does it have to do with you!"
"Your Majesty..." Chu Wensheng gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, if any band of barbarians rebels, I am willing to lead my troops to suppress it!"
Huang Laosi raised his eyebrows: "You are the Minister of the Ministry of Industry... By the way, I just remembered that you have led soldiers, but is this like this?"
"Yes, I have led troops."
Huang Laosi's face was full of hesitation. After a while, he waved his hand angrily: "Okay, then go to Liao An and finish this little errand. Later, I will ask Sun An to find you."
I'll tell you what to do, and I... I'll just be generous and forget about it, and just step back."
Chu Wensheng felt relieved: "I obey the order."
After saying that, Chu Wensheng left with a look of joy for the rest of his life.
Sun An was so impressed that he fell to the ground.
The emperor...is the emperor!
If you come up here and say, oh, Lao Chu, my beloved, please go to Liaohua, it’s very dangerous. The Li family may want to kill you. If you go into the mountains, the barbarians may also want to kill you. This
It's a life of narrow escape, but don't worry, as long as you get things sorted out, when you come back, I'll let you be the right servant. I don't think about it.
Then, Chu Wensheng was definitely not willing to take this job, and felt that Huang Laosi was trying to trick him.
But if you put it another way, you can't eat anything, you can't do anything, so you can retire and return to your hometown. Don't be an eyesore in front of me. Wait a minute, eh, what, something happened to Liao An, uh, that
Whoever it is, Chu Wensheng, it’s up to you. I’ll give you one last chance to go to Liaohua and atone for your sins.
Then Chu Wensheng was overjoyed.
It's obviously the same thing, but if you put it another way, the result is completely different.
I have to say that Teacher Huang understands how to play with people's hearts.
Before he could say anything about the horses, Huang Laosi mentioned another thing: "Any merit must be rewarded, and deeds must be punished. Now that the construction of Taowu Hall is completed, I am quite satisfied. The horseshoes and cow nose rings presented by Chu Qing are a great contribution."
, what I decided before was..."
"Prince's prison door has long doors to his left and right."
"Yes, that's it. Although he has been renewed, he can still be regarded as an official of the East Palace. He will come to the palace every now and then to tell stories...telling stories and some nostalgic things about the great Confucian."
Sun An was too embarrassed to expose it.
If you want to hear a story, just listen to the story, and remember the old Confucian stories.
"Draft the edict and send it to the Chu Mansion later. You go there in person and hand the edict to Chu Qing. By the way, you can tell Chu Wensheng what to do when he arrives in Liaohua. But remember, you must let Chu Wensheng know. I still
Those who dislike him very much reward his son because of the matter of horseshoes and bull nose rings. The merits and demerits of father and son should not be confused."
"Old slave knows."
…………
Outside Jingzhao Mansion, Chu Qing and Fu San stood at the door, waiting for Tao Shaozhang.
Tao Shaozhang was relatively reliable. He knew that he and the Li family had completely broken up and didn't want Chu Qing to show up, so he stayed outside.
Chu Qing didn't get what he wanted. It was enough for Tao Shaozhang to "testify". It didn't mean much whether he testified or not. Let Mr. Tao make up the story himself.
Seeing that they had been waiting for almost half an hour, just when Chu Qing was thinking about finding a place to have lunch with Fu San, a gorgeous sedan landed outside Jingzhao Mansion.
Chu Qing always felt that this sedan looked familiar. In addition to the sedan bearers, there was also a middle-aged scholar riding a horse.
The sedan curtain was opened, and a young man walked out. The middle-aged scholar got off his horse, and the two walked side by side towards Jingzhao Mansion.
Just when they passed by Chu Qing, the young man and the scholar looked at Chu Qing at the same time.
Chu Qing also recognized this young man, it was Li Lin, the second young master of the Li family who had visited Tao Yao in the Tao Mansion!
Li Lin stopped, turned his head, and stared at Chu Qing: "I have seen you before, and I saw you in the Tao Mansion."
Chu Qing said nothing.
The scholar on the side is Zhang Yun, the real murderer of Zhou Hu of Jufuzhai.
Zhang Yun looked at Chu Qing and then whispered: "Second Young Master, after Chen Yan escaped from Li Xunnan, this was the man who went to Dali Temple to look for Tao Shaozhang."
Li Lin's expression changed slightly: "In the Tao Mansion, this person also discussed accounts and calculations with Tao Shaozhang, and then Tao Shaozhang went to the Ministry of Accounts..."
Pointing at Chu Qing, Li Lin gritted his teeth and said: "So, it's not Chen Yan who is secretly helping Tao Shaozhang, but you!"
Chu Qing was happy: "Surprise or not, surprise or not."
"you…"
Fu San didn't know why: "Third Young Master, what do they mean?"
Chu Qing shrugged: "What else can I do? My young master has been exposed."
Zhang Yun did not look at Chu Qing, but at Fu San, looking at the scar on Fu San's jaw, then seemed to remember something, and whispered to Li Lin for a while.
After Li Lin heard this, he laughed loudly: "Boy, you are dead."
Chu Qing yawned.
Li Lin said: "Why are you standing there in such a daze? Since you know that this boy also went to Jufuzhai to hurt people yesterday, and you still don't ask the guards to take him down, he is probably Chen Yan's accomplice!"
