Eight hundred and seventieth eight chapters big secret
At the gate of Shangshu Province, a grassland envoy named Balu said in less than standard Chinese: "When will your lord go to the grassland? Khan misses you very much..."
After Chen State established diplomatic relations with the Grassland, the Sushen tribe also sent envoys to the capital. However, when they arrived, Tang Ning happened to be in Guizhou Province, and he only saw these envoys yesterday.
Thinking of the little wild horses on the grassland, Tang Ning felt guilty for no reason and said, "Let's wait until some time passes."
Fortunately, Balu did not continue this topic and instead said: "These people actually dare to go against the adults. Do we need to deal with them on the way back to the grassland?"
When he spoke, he also made a gesture of wiping his neck.
"That's not necessary." The men on the grassland were very aggressive. Tangning waved her hand and said, "Just don't make them comfortable along the way."
Tang Ning admitted that she was stingy. Along the way, she had touched many lives directly and indirectly, but because of this incident, it was still a bit too much to let Li Qi and others die on the way to the mission.
Moreover, if the envoys of the Chen State are destroyed in the grassland, the Chen State will definitely not give up just like that, and it will also cause big trouble for the little barbarian girl.
Balu and others left. Tangning was about to walk back when she turned to look at Li Qi who was not far away and asked, "It's not time to go to the Yamen yet, where is Li Zuocheng going?"
Li Qi looked pale and said in a trembling voice: "Xia, I'm not feeling well and want to see a doctor."
"Master Li's face is very pale." Tangning nodded and said, "Your health is important, go ahead, your fake official is here."
Li Qi sniffed and smiled dryly: "Master Tang, what did you just say to the grassland envoy?"
Tangning waved her hand and said, "I didn't say anything..."
Li Qidao: "Then why did they just..."
As he spoke, he imitated Balu's action just now and made a gesture of wiping his neck.
"Oh, you're talking about this..." Tangning smiled and explained: "The roasted whole lamb on the grassland is a must-have. I just asked Envoy Balu to let you try this special dish on the grassland.
,Li Zuocheng, don’t get me wrong..."
Li Qi looked at him in fear, how could he believe Tangning's lies!
What about roasting a whole lamb? I'm afraid they will be the ones roasted when they get to the grassland, right?
Why didn't he think that the peace between the grassland and Chen State was negotiated by the man in front of him with just one mouth? He must have an influence in the grassland that even His Majesty does not have.
When people like them go to the grassland, aren't they just like sheep entering the tiger's mouth and bringing about their own destruction?
Li Qi left Shangshu Province and came to Prince Duan's Mansion in a daze, describing exactly what had just happened in Shangshu Province.
"What did you say?" Prince Duan grabbed his collar and said, "Tang Ning asked all of you to go on a mission to the grassland?"
Li Qi nodded and said: "Yes, and Xianguan saw with his own eyes that he is very close to the grassland envoy. I am afraid that if Xianguan leaves, he will never come back."
King Duan slammed the table and said angrily: "How dare he!"
Li Qidao: "Your Highness, Tangning has been to the grassland before. I heard that he has a close relationship with the current Khan of the grassland. Once we reach the grassland, it is their territory. It is not difficult for him to make us disappear without anyone noticing...
"
"If he really dares, wouldn't something fall on me?" A sneer appeared on Prince Duan's face, and he said: "You can go ahead, if he really dares to murder the imperial official, even if he is the prime minister.
, I can also make him unable to stand up!"
Li Qi trembled, looked at Prince Duan, and said in disbelief: "Your Highness, then we..."
"The Tang family helped you so much before allowing you to sit in the position of Zuocheng, the minister. Now it is your time to repay this king." King Duan looked at him and said indifferently: "Don't worry, if you die,
, I will let Tangning be buried with you!"
Li Qi's face was pale and bloodless, and his eyes gradually lost color.
…
The case of Jing Zhaoyin's miscarriage of justice was transferred to the Ministry of Punishment and the result was soon obtained.
In any case, my father-in-law's oversight is true, but Jingzhao Yin is the parent of the entire Jingzhao Mansion. He is also a mortal. He does not have a pair of eyes to see through all things. He handles so many things every day, and it is inevitable that he will make some mistakes.
The imperial court would not be so harsh on Jing Zhaoyin. If Jing Zhaoyin had to be dismissed because of such a small oversight, then Chen Guo's Jing Zhaoyin would be replaced every few days.
The punishment imposed by the Ministry of Punishment was to fine him three months' salary and to redress the case for the family. This was the most severe punishment under the laws of the State of Chen.
As for Wannian County Magistrate, because he colluded with local bullies, confused right and wrong, and disregarded human life, he was immediately dismissed from office and sentenced to exile...
King Duan's wishful thinking this time that he wanted to exchange Wannian County Magistrate for Jing Zhaoyin finally came to nothing.
The voice of public dissatisfaction in the capital also gradually subsided with the investigation results of the Ministry of Punishments.
Wang Xiang stepped forward this time, which indeed saved Tangning a lot of trouble. However, for him, the most troublesome thing was not Prince Duan.
Zhao Man has already passed the news to Wei Jian, but until now, there has been no news from the palace. It can be seen that Chen Huang's physical condition is worse than Tang Ning expected.
He walked to the door of Shangshu Province, glanced at the direction of the harem, shook his head, and walked in helplessly.
Li Qi, the minister Zuocheng, stood in the courtyard in despair. When he saw Tang Ning coming in, a smile appeared on his face. He stepped forward and said, "I have met Prime Minister Tang Ning."
Tang Ning glanced at him and said, "It's Li Zuocheng. Your face looks ugly. Would you like me to ask the imperial doctor to come and take a look at you? I will be leaving for the grasslands in a few days. It's not okay if my body collapses...
"
Li Qi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately said: "Master Tang, I have indeed been feeling unwell recently. I'm afraid I can't stand the bumps on the road. Otherwise..."
Before he could finish speaking, Tang Ning waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, Li Zuocheng. I'm very familiar with the Imperial Physician Cheng Ling Yihong. I'll have him here shortly to help you take a closer look. No matter what serious illness you have."
Any minor illness can be cured for you before departure..."
Li Qi's expression changed and he said: "I'm here, I'm here..."
Tangning looked at him, shook her head and said, "Li Zuocheng, I know you don't want to go to the grassland, but someone has to do these things. You also need to be more considerate of the difficulties faced by Shangshu Province, don't you think?"
Li Qi's face became even paler, and he nodded blankly: "Yes, yes..."
Seeing Tang Ning walking into the Chancellor's study room, Li Qi's body swayed and he felt dizzy.
The right prime minister who offended Yaizhen must take revenge. He went to the grassland this time and never thought of coming back. But King Duan meant that it would be best for him to die outside, so that King Duan could control the right prime minister...
But he didn't want to die yet, even if his official career was terminated, he didn't want to die, but he knew that if he resigned or disrupted King Duan's plan at this moment, he would be uglier than death.
After struggling internally for a long time, he finally gritted his teeth, turned around and walked towards the study room.
When he walked to the Chancery's study room, he looked at Tang Ning who was sitting in his seat, knelt down with a bang and said, "Master Tang, it is the lower official who is obsessed with his mind. On the order of King Duan, he made things difficult for Lord Jingzhao Yinzhong. This is all the lower official's fault."
Wrong, I beg Master Tang to spare my life!"
Tang Ning stood up, looked at Shangshu Zuo Cheng who was kneeling on the ground, kowtowing, and asked in surprise: "Li Zuo Cheng, what are you doing?"
There was blood on Li Qi's forehead, but he kept kowtowing and said in a trembling voice: "There are old people above me and young people below. If something happens to the low officials, they won't be able to survive. Please have mercy on Mr. Tang and put it down."
Officials have a way out..."
Tangning felt helpless, so she walked over and said, "Li Zuocheng, don't be like this. When will I take your life..."
Little did he know that when Li Qi saw this, he expected that Tang Ning would not let him go. He became even more frightened and his voice became trembling: "Sir, I am willing to work for you. I only listen to your orders. I beg you to spare my life..."
Tang Ning's expression became even more helpless. He looked so gentle and elegant, did he look like someone who would kill people at the slightest move? Why didn't Li Zuocheng believe it?
In Li Qi's eyes, this was naturally because Tang Ning was unmoved and unwilling to spare his life. He felt cruel in his heart and gritted his teeth and said, "My lord, I have been following the Tang family for many years and know a secret about the Tang family and Tang Huifei. As long as you are willing to spare my life."
For my life, I will tell this secret to you!"
The Tang family was dead, and there was no chance of a comeback. Tang Ning could predict Tang Huifei's fate. He shook his head and said, "I am not interested in the secrets of the Tang family and Tang Huifei."
This was his last chance to survive. Naturally, Li Qi would not give up. Hearing this, he hurriedly said: "This secret is related to Queen Xiao and the former prince. It is a big secret of the Tang family..."
