Chapter 162 Something is wrong (1)
The next morning, the ministers in the court smelled a few different meanings.
Duke of Zheng, Changsheng, Hou of Huaiyuan, said he was sick and handed over the errands of the Jingying and the city defense. The old marquis Yu Tongyuan and Wuding Marquis Guo Ying were temporarily appointed, while the errands of the city defense were handed over to the father-in-law Zhao Sili of Cheng'en Marquis.
Duke Cao Li Jinglong also returned the official defense seal and other items early in the morning, and all the medal positions were handed over to become Duke of the Empty Bucket.
If there is nothing in it, others will never believe it. Such a sudden and straightforward transfer of personnel is unusual and the people involved have positions, which is even more important.
It's so surprising and so terrifying!

"Fourth Brother!"
Outside the Governor's Office of the Five Army, Guo Ying, who had just taken the tiger talisman to go to the military camp, was stopped by Cao Zhen, the Marquis of Jingchuan.
Guo Ying was wearing military uniform, looking at Cao Zhen wearing a new red cotton robe, frowned and said, "How old are you, and you are still wearing such a gorgeous look?"
"You know a ball. The older you get, the more beautiful you need to wear. This is called being pretty in old age!" Cao Zhen said with a smile.
"You're so old!" Guo Ying snorted, "You can go to your little widow early in the morning, don't delay my business!"
"I just played with her for a night last night, so I can raise her!"
"Haha, you Cao Huolou will also be defeated?"
"Young widow raises good things, don't be too diligent, otherwise you'll get rid of them!" Cao Zhen said carelessly, approaching Guo Ying, and whispered, "Go to the military camp?"
Guo Ying winked at the people around him, and the guards immediately dispersed.
"You Cao Sha Zi, you have a good ear?"
"Fourth brother, please give me a brief explanation!" Cao Zhen said seriously, "What the hell is going on? How come we old guys are working again?"
"It's me and two old guys, Lao Yu!" Guo Ying corrected the other party.
"Don't be careless, hurry up!" Cao Zhen glared, then whispered, "But what happened?" As he said, he wanted to pull Guo Ying off the horse, "Brother, those things in the past few years really scared me. You are close to your two masters, so give me a clear message!"
Seeing him like that, Guo Ying felt soft and jumped off the horse and said, "It's okay, keep your heart in your stomach!"
In fact, it is not easy for them to be trembling over the years. The Li Shanchang case, Hu Weiyong case, and Lan Yu's incident, have been skinned every time.
Although they are unrestrained in their daily lives, they even have some minor bad deeds, they are self-deprecating in front of the old man, indicating that they are not greedy for power.
"It's really okay?" Cao Zhen whispered.
"Can I fool you?" Guo Ying said squintly.
"Then you're not fooling me?" Cao Zhen sighed, "What the hell is that? The two children of the Chang family are good! Li Jinglong is also a talent..."
Guo Ying looked around and said, "You're ignorant!"
"Why are you ignorant?" Cao Zhen asked over and asked.
"It's floating!" Guo Ying muttered, "I forgot it! My butt is crooked, my elbow is crooked!"
"Hiss!" Cao Zhen took a breath of air conditioning, "His grandma's food has forgotten who he has eaten!"
"I won't talk to you anymore, I'll go to the barracks!" Guo Ying turned over again.
"Hey hey hey!" Cao Zhen called him again.
"You're not finished?" Guo Ying cursed.
"I'll say first, you are a military officer, right? You're not always letting you take care of it, so don't be too serious about some things!" Cao Zhen said something.
"Cao Sha, please make it clear!" Guo Ying pulled down his face, "Don't say half of it hidden half! Say, otherwise something really happens, I won't care about you!"
Cao Zhen was embarrassed and looked around and whispered, "Give me a face to give me brother, don't be too much..." Then, he immediately said before Guo Ying got angry, "Xingwu and Dingwu battalions, I'm eating an empty salary of more than 100 people!"
"You..." Guo Ying was stunned for a moment, "You are crazy. How long have you been eating? How much money has it been? Did you lose money and get rid of it? You made your brain stupid? What can this be done? Is the boy from the Chang family giving it to you..."
"It's not just a waste of salary!" Cao Zhen defended, "It's just a salary that doesn't serve as a soldier and don't show up!"
"False?" Guo Ying was really anxious.
"Listen to me!" Cao Zhen said quickly, "Those who received the money were descendants of the old brothers who died in battle with me. My father died in battle with me. I can't ignore them. Every family is an orphan and widowed mother. Oh, when I die, I let my son join the army. At that time, they all eat in the same pot, so I can't forget their roots!"
"People are all in military household booklets, but they don't go to the military camp to serve in the military camp, and they show off when they read it. Who doesn't have a family member? Are they still human beings too serious?"
"You, what's the point of saying you?" Guo Ying was so angry that he couldn't stand it, "My fucking
What I owe you in my previous life, I will wipe your butt for the rest of my life!"
As he said that, he ignored Cao Zhen and left after he beat the horse.
Cao Zhen stood there, first scratched his head, then put his hands in his sleeves, cursing, "I'm not the only one who does this." He also felt that he was inappropriate and sighed without stopping when he stood there.
After a while, Cao Zhen looked around and didn't know where to go for a moment.
"Let's go!" He ordered his followers around him, "Go to Duke Cao's Mansion!"
~~
"Marty, Marquis!"
The housekeeper in Cao Guogong's mansion stopped Cao Zhen in the doorman with a begging smile, "Our master is not happy, the doctor said he wants to rest..."
"Get out of here, believe it or not, will the house be burned for you?" Cao Zhen glared, "No one dares to stop me when I enter the palace. Who are you? No matter how quarrels, I will send you to the palace to be a eunuch, hurry up and lead the way."
As he said that, this old killer kicked the butler of Duke Cao's mansion.
The housekeeper had no choice but to lead Cao Zhen to the backyard flower room, and also ordered the servant to say, "Go and report to the master, Mr. Cao is here!"
"Ha!" Cao Zhen looked at the Hou Mansion while walking, "It's his mother's more generous than my family. Tsk, the floor is covered with stone slabs, and even blue bricks are not needed. He really has money to burn!"
The entire Duke's Mansion is a courtyard with five entrances, with 560 houses alone, not just garden houses, or small courtyards where the servants live.
“I said…”
Cao Zhen casually entered the flower room where Li Jinglong met, and was startled as soon as he opened his mouth.
The handsome and handsome Duke Cao, who was once a man of great spirit, was now just a sick person, with a pale complexion and a dull eyes sitting on the Grand Master's chair, as if he had grown a lot of years overnight.
Cao Zhen walked closer and looked at it, and suddenly found that there were scattered white hairs between Li Jinglong's temples.
"I said, are you?"
Li Jinglong turned around powerlessly and smiled bitterly, "The old marquis is here, look at me... Hey, I'm weak all over, I really can't get up!"
"You sit down!" Cao Zhen sat down next to each other, pinched a few melon seeds and threw them into his mouth, looking up and down, "Did you come down?"
Li Jinglong nodded and whispered, "You have not had time to do the matter of entrusting me to me..."
Cao Zhen waved his hand, "What's the reason? Is it corrupt?"
Li Jinglong smiled miserably and didn't say anything.
"If you don't say it, you will feel sick!" Cao Zhen continued, "Tell me, maybe I can help you understand it!" As he said, he smiled, "If you don't say it, I can ask you even if you turn around."
Li Jinglong still didn't say anything.
"Oh, I can guess it if I don't say it!" Cao Zhen spitted the melon seed skin on the floor where the tiled was laid in the flower room, and also had a mouthful of sticky phlegm. "Little Li Zi, you guy looks so smart, but sometimes you can't tell it clearly!"
Upon hearing this, Li Jinglong was a little confused.
"Look at your house, your official position, and everything you have, who gave it?" Cao Zhen asked.
"Of course...Long live the Lord!"
"Yes! Since it was given by Master Long Sui, then you think about Master Long Sui?" Cao Zhen said with a smile.
Suddenly, Li Jinglong seemed to have caught something in his mind.
"Look at my whole life, although there are still obstacles, it's not a big deal?" Cao Zhen whispered, "Everything we are ministers is given by the emperor. You must understand some things, who do you want to help."
"You are fine in private because of the emperor's power. But you have to rely on the emperor's favor, and try to do something for yourself and hide it from him, and also talk to others and do things for others. Are you right?"
"What is a loyal minister? The emperor wants to kill your biological father. If you just copy the knife, that is a loyal minister!"
"You are a series of people who are hooking up with outsiders and hiding them, who are you loyal?"
"My buddies can't do this, let alone the monarch and minister!"
"Do you know what the people above are most annoying? The one who is most annoying is cleverness!"
"I'm most annoying to you to help him make decisions, and I'm most annoying to do something ignorant under the banner of loyalty!"
As he said that, Cao Zhenzhang stood up, "You think about it yourself!"
"Where are you going?" Li Jinglong asked.
"Chang Family, look at those two boys!" Cao Zhen sighed, "Hey, their father died early, and the rest of the family is indifferent. Haha! Without us old guys, they will sooner or later kill themselves!"
~~
As soon as Cao Zhen left, his brother-in-law Deng Ping came to the door.
It was still in the Li family's flower room. Deng Ping felt very uncomfortable when he looked at Li Jinglong, who had become much older.
"Brother-in-law, I heard you were scolded yesterday?"
"There is no secret in the palace!" Li Jinglong smiled, "Hey, I'm seeing you this time!"
"It's great that you stay at home. Long live the emperor these days is not happy!" Deng Ping sighed, "Just just now, I heard that Lord Zhang, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, ate the emperor's evil fire again!"
"What's wrong?" Li Jinglong asked, "But the case?"
"It's not the case!" Deng Ping grinned, then whispered, "Because of money!" As he said, he gave the other party a look, "Yunnan is going to fight, and the Duke of Qian has a note, asking for two million military supplies. The emperor asked Zhang Jue to allocate it, and the old scholar was just stuck, and he had no money!"
"The Ministry of Revenue's treasury has grown all the money, why don't you have money?" Li Jinglong muttered, "It must be those civil servants who are unwilling to spend money on wars!" He said, cursing, "They know nothing! They are just a country of etiquette all day long. You can't bully the weak, I'll bastard!"
