Although Xiao Yan wanted to kill Lan Jian completely, he looked at the white official's expression of "death rabbit and fox sadness" and the fish-death eyes they looked over, and knew that he could not act emotionally...|
Although it is very pleasing to kill the Blue Sword, it is very likely to cause Bai Mochou to take a desperate counterattack, with great risks and should not be acted arbitrarily.
Anyway, the position of the Nine Gate Admiral was obtained, and the Nine Gate City Guards were under their control. The Blue Sword has become a useless person. Let him go for the time being.
Xiao Yan coughed lightly and thought to himself: "Your Majesty, the Nine Gate City Guards are under the jurisdiction of the military headquarters, so it should be decided by Lord Kang."
Xiao Yan was cunning and did not want to participate in this matter. He kicked the ball to Kang Shanzhen, thinking that Kang Shanzhen would be petty, and was angry because Lan Jian recommended Cheng Ye and punished him heavily, so he would be completely aggravated with Bai Mochou.
Yan Jing said to Kang Shanzhen again: "Duke, how should General Lan deal with it?"
Kang Shanzhen would not have fallen into Xiao Yan's trap and said loudly: "General Lan is loyal and diligent, and only the court officials know that this thief is cunning. Although General Lan is guilty of dereliction of duty, considering that he has just taken charge of Jiumen City Guards and his military morale is not stable, it is understandable. I think that General Lan should be fined for one year and transferred to the Military Affairs Office for study and review."
call!
The civil and military officials in the court breathed a sigh of relief.
Xiao Yan was so angry that his face turned green: How could this be a punishment? It is clearly a big thing to turn into small things, and a small thing to turn into nothing!
A one-year salary is considered a fine? Who is an official who lives on his salary? It can only be considered a vacation when he is transferred to the Military Affairs Office, and it has nothing to do with punishment.
However, Xiao Yan had just kicked the ball to Kang Shanzhen, and no matter how thick-skinned he was, he would not be willing to be a villain in vain.
Yan Jing nodded with satisfaction: "Duke Kang is wise and powerful. I will naturally listen to what the Duke said, so I will do it according to the Duke's wishes? Ah... I owe... Is there anything else? I am sleepy, I want to feed the birds! Otherwise, let's retreat."
Xiao Yan would not miss this opportunity, and said seriously: "I still have my memorials to start the report."
"Xiao Aiqing, can't you let me go?" Yan Jing sighed heavily: "Just discuss things as big as a sesame seed, just discuss them with Duke Kang. I'm busy feeding birds, so where can I have time to discuss the government? Okay! Okay! Xiao Aiqing hurry up and let me listen."
Xiao Yan was so angry that his face turned pale: Are you still a fart emperor? He was doing his butt on the baby but didn't know how to cherish it...
"The emperor starts to investigate after the fire. These five hundred assassins are rebels of the Plum Blossom Sect, and are very fierce. In the battle report three days ago, the commander of Muping, Nan Batian, had repeatedly stated that they had trapped the Plum Blossom Sect to death in Muping City. The emperor also praised Nan Batian."
Xiao Yan turned his head and looked at Kang Shanzhen and said coldly: "But how did these assassins come out? Did they have their wings and flew out of Muping City? Therefore, I concluded that Nan Batian must have lied about military information and should be punished heavily to serve as a warning to others!"
"Ah? This..." Yan Jing looked at Kang Shanzhen in a sideways, "Duke, what's going on?"
"Mr. Xiao, as an important official of the court, how dare you speak nonsense?"
Kang Shanzhen stood up and walked up to Xiao Yan, glared at him and said, "Who can prove that those assassins must be plum blossom thieves?"
“What’s the difficulty?”
Xiao Yan sneered: "Didn't the Black Guard arrest more than a dozen survivors? I'll know it clearly after being interrogated. I don't believe that except for the Plum Blossom Sect, who has such a great power, who has the courage to cause trouble in the capital? I believe that all the civil and military officials in the court know this very well?"
Any court officials who don’t know the truth will attribute the culprit to the Plum Blossom Sect. Apart from the Plum Blossom Sect, who would do such a thankless thing? Isn’t this a matter of nothing to ask for?
In fact, even Kang Shanzhen thought so in his heart, and so far, he was very grateful to Shi Yue - those who died of oral poison after being killed by living oral poison, in Kang Shanzhen's opinion, Shi Yue deliberately did it: it was to kill people to silence them, not to give them a handle, so as not to make things difficult for him and not to cure the aftermath.
Because of this, Kang Shanzhen respected Shi Yue more and more, and even believed that he was open-minded and could put aside his grudges and ignore his past grudges.
If Shi Yue holds a grudge against Nan Batian in his heart and wants to take revenge, he just needs to follow the normal process and make these plum blossom rebels public. Then Nan Batian will confirm the crime of lying about military affairs. This is a serious crime of beheading, so how can he escape?
But for the sake of Nan Batian, Kang Shanzhen would never admit this matter and retorted with a sneer: "Mr. Xiao, those rebels are very brave and cannot bear the humiliation and commit suicide by taking poison. Where can they be interrogated in the current dynasty? Can Lord Xiao still talk to the dead?"
Upon hearing that these people were dead, Xiao Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and sneered: "Since he was captured alive by the Black Guard, how can he have the chance to take poison? Who doesn't know the skills of the Black Guard? Who wants to die? Where can he live? Lord Kang, you are clearly proof of death."
Kang Shanzhen showed a ferocious look and stared at Xiao Yan with sharp eyes: "Mr. Xiao, since there is no real evidence, why do you frame Nan Batian? You are the prime minister of the dynasty, how can you speak nonsense? Losing your virtue?"
"I'm just talking nonsense?"
Xiao Yan waved his arm and said firmly: "Am I talking nonsense? All the civil and military officials in the court knew in their hearts that Master Kang would protect Nan Batian so much, how could he manage the army if he did next time?"
Xiao Yan knew that he could not convict Nan Batian without real evidence, but through this incident, Kang Shanzhen's morale was shaken, and he tore off his hypocritical mask of selflessness and fearlessness. Such results were enough to make him laugh so hard that he couldn't sleep.
Yan Jing also knew that this matter was just about corrupting Kang Shanzhen's reputation. He could not do anything about Nan Batian. He waved impatiently: "Enough! Enough! Lord Xiao, Lord Duke, you should deal with these things that are catching wind and shadows by yourself. How can I have the heart to care about this little business? I am still busy fighting crickets." After that, he was about to announce his resignation.
But he couldn't think of Kang Shanzhen and said loudly: "I have a memorial to start the report!"
"kindness?"
Yan Jing was curious: He didn't expect Kang Shanzhen to say anything. Anyway, if he couldn't make a decision for a while, he would just make excuses, discuss with his master, and then deal with it. This trick of pretending to be crazy and stupid is always practical.
"The Duke of the State has come to report." Yan Jing said impatiently.
Kang Shanzhen glanced at Xiao Yan and said: "There was a fire in Taohuawu, and five hundred assassins strangled three thousand talents. The situation was turbulent. The Black-clothed Guard Qianhu Tianfen's troops, led by Shi Yue, fought with the criminals at the risk of death. Not only did they rescue all the three thousand talents, but they also strangled five hundred assassins. The most important thing was to ensure the safety of Bai Jingshi. Tian Fen and Shi Yue's troops made an indelible contribution!"
"I strongly recommend that the Black-clothed Guard Qianhu Tian Fen be promoted to the General Master of the Black-clothed Guard; the Black-clothed Guard Baihu Shi Yue fought hard and was promoted to the Black-clothed Guard Qianhu, with one army alone, and a general under his knees, and rewarded according to his merits. Please beg for your Majesty."
Good Dragon's East! Yan Jing's heart thrilled: Master, good things have finally fallen on your head...
