Chen Weiwei was sipping tea when Qiu Yuanqu came over quickly and said: "Then Huo Mouyuan couldn't hold on anymore and passed out again. Sir, why don't you stop for a while and beat for a while, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on anymore."
Chen nodded slightly: "Then take it easy and ask the doctor to come over and apply medicine for him."
Qiu Yuanqu was stunned for a moment and asked subconsciously: "This person is going to die anyway, why waste medicine and stones on him."
Chen Weiwei said: "He is indeed going to die, because this matter can only end with him. Do you understand what I mean?"
Qiu Yuanqu nodded: "I understand what you mean."
Chen Weiwei said: "What His Highness wants is to clean up the official department. Just do it according to His Highness's wishes. Anyone caught will die. That's the end of it, but... this person cannot die so quickly."
He poured a cup of tea and handed it to Qiu Yuanqu, who quickly leaned over and thanked him.
Chen Weiwei continued: "He died a few days after he was arrested. People will say that we beat people to death through torture to extract confessions. If they die in three days or five days, some people will say so. If we can survive for half a month,
If he dies again, it will be different."
"Your Highness needs to do things neatly and beautifully, but the prince of the Wang family is also waiting for news."
Chen Weiwei said: "You were sent to me by my father-in-law, but I won't go behind your back when I say anything. You can understand my difficulties, right?"
Qiu Yuanqu nodded vigorously: "Yes, sir, it is indeed not easy for you."
Chen smiled slightly and said, "What is the worst job in the world?"
Without waiting for Qiu Yuanqu to answer, he continued: "I am doing things according to the order. If you do it well, you take it for granted. If you don't do it well, the Supreme Being will punish you."
He looked at Qiu Yuanqu and asked: "What is the best job in the world? It is better to do things according to orders, because the person standing behind you is the Supreme."
If Qiu Yuanqu has some enlightenment.
Chen Weiwei said: "I treat you as one of my own, so I won't hide some words. Let me ask you, if you want to find a backer, should the father-in-law rely on the long-term, or the emperor rely on the long-term?"
Qiu Yuanqu was startled again.
Chen Weiwei said: "So when doing things, we must first satisfy the emperor. His Highness is the future emperor. If you are satisfied, please come down to him in advance. And what we can do our best is to make the father-in-law not disappointed. The older one guarantees satisfaction.
The smaller one is guaranteed to be passable."
Qiu Yuanqu raised his thumb and said, "Sir, you are really powerful. In just a few words, you can fully explain the true meaning of being an official."
Chen smiled slightly, remembering that Cui Fuye told him these words, so he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Cui Fanye is really a good helper. If Cui Fanye was still by his side, he would be able to do things more smoothly now and he would be more confident.
Qiu Yuanqu asked: "So what your lord means is to delay it for a while to let His Highness know how difficult it is for us to handle it. If we close the case in three or two days, it will seem too easy and we won't get much praise."
Chen smiled slightly and nodded.
Qiu Yuanqu continued: "After enough time has passed, the father-in-law will become impatient in waiting for news. If he is impatient, he will continue to lower his expectations."
Chen Weiwei nodded again.
Qiu Yuanqu said: "When the time is almost up, it will be easy for both sides to explain. The father-in-law originally wanted to keep Huo Mouyuan, but if he endures it, he will feel that as long as the Wang family is not involved, everything else is acceptable.
.”
Chen smiled slightly and said, "My enemy."
Qiu Yuanqu raised his thumb again: "Your Excellency is so far-sighted and can see through people's hearts."
Chen Weiwei waved his hand: "Stop flattering, tell your subordinates not to be impatient. In this case, the Minister of Civil Affairs is the mastermind and the mastermind behind the scenes. From him on down, everyone is an accomplice, and no other parties will be involved."
Home."
Qiu Yuanqu cupped his fists and said, "Don't worry, sir. I'm going to give them a thorough explanation now so that they can feel at ease."
After Qiu Yuanqu left, Chen Weiwei couldn't help but sneered a few times.
He seemed to say these words sincerely, but he knew that Qiu Yuanqu would definitely tell Wang Luoshen the truth. He couldn't tell it now, but he would definitely tell it in the future.
And this is exactly what Chen Weiwei hopes Wang Luoshen will know.
He just wanted Wang Luoshen to understand that Chen Weiwei is no longer what he used to be. He should stop talking to Chen Weiwei in the condescending manner in the past. In the future, he should weigh his weight.
He picked up a pen and paper, pondered for a moment and then started writing.
This is a memorial to be presented to Mr. Xin, and he dare not not take it seriously.
Fortunately, they all live in the imperial garden, but Mr. Xin, with his lazy and dissolute temperament, doesn't even take a look.
When such a person takes the initiative, it is a great thing for those below.
Even in a courtyard, he can ignore everything and leave it to his subordinates with complete trust. How kind of a master he is, he is considerate and easy to fool.
Soon after, this memorial was delivered to Mr. Xin’s Sihaitang.
Mr. Xin was playing with a gadget he had just made, a small wooden man that could be activated with wooden wheels and leather ropes.
With good effort, the little wooden man will beat the drum and move forward, which is fun to watch.
"Your Highness."
Gu Xiujin walked in and handed over the memorial: "Chen Weiwei sent someone just now, saying that there has been progress and that the chief clerk of the Ministry of Personnel has identified something."
Mr. Xin pointed to the table: "Put it there, I'll take a look at it later."
Gu Xiujin also stopped trying to persuade him.
After putting down the memorial, Gu Xiujin bent down to salute, then bowed his waist and stepped back.
???????????????
"Xiao Gu, don't leave yet. Do you think this is fun?"
Mr. Xin pointed at the little wooden man.
Gu Xiujin replied: "Although the object is not big, it is ingeniously crafted. Your Highness is really amazing."
Mr.
He picked up the little wooden man and handed it to Gu Xiujin: "Here it is for you."
Gu Xiujin took it with both hands: "Thank you, Your Highness, for the reward."
He took this small object and left the Sihai Hall. After a moment of silence, he gave a wry smile.
The service office is not far from Sihai Hall, about three or four miles, and it is on the edge of Qiuyue Lake in the Imperial Garden.
This is a row of houses with blue bricks and red tiles, surrounded by imperial guards. It looks like it is really heavily guarded.
The auxiliary ministers headed by Ning Weimo all work here. There are people coming and going here, and it is much more lively than the Sihai Hall.
Gu Xiujin walked to the door of the reception office, and the guard on duty quickly saluted him.
"please......"
Gu Xiujin wanted to ask the Chief Assistant to come out and say a few words, but he swallowed the words and finally shook his head: "That's all."
[Currently used, it is the most complete and best-used app for listening to books. It integrates 4 major speech synthesis engines and over 100 sounds. It is also a source-changing artifact that supports offline reading. Source-changing app]
After saying that, he turned around and left.
After just a few steps out, Ning Weimo opened the curtain and came out to get some air, and saw Gu Xiujin's back at a glance.
"Eunuch Gu."
Ning Weimo shouted.
Gu Xiujin turned around and saw Ning Weimo coming out. He quickly saluted: "I've met Mr. Zaifu."
"Eunuch Gu, why are you so polite to me?"
Ning Weimo strolled over, approached Gu Xiujin and asked, "You're here to find me, right? Why did you come and leave again?"
Gu Xiujin sighed.
Ning Weimo asked tentatively: "Did you come to me because of His Highness's affairs?"
Gu Xiujin nodded.
Ning Weimo said: "You and I are not outsiders. If you have anything you want to say, just tell me directly."
Gu Xiujin said: "Your Highness has not been to the morning court for seven or eight days. I am afraid that if it continues like this... If Master Zaifu is free, can you please advise His Highness?"
Ning Weimo said: "I told His Highness about this matter. His Highness said that if there is already a service office and he still needs to worry about everything, then what should the service office do? He blocked me in one sentence.
,What can i say."
After speaking, he sighed.
Gu Xiujin opened his mouth, but in the end he couldn't say anything else.
"Master, please do your work, I'm back."
After Gu Xiujin finished saying this, he left with a lonely look on his face.
Looking at Gu Xiujin's back, Ning Weimo felt a little uncomfortable. Gu Xiujin was the one who had always served the emperor. What kind of person was the emperor, and what kind of person was Mr. Xin?
Only half a day later, news of what happened in the imperial garden reached Shiqiao Villa outside Geling City.
Wang Luoshen was standing by the frozen lake. The weather in Geling this year was also surprisingly cold.
We have not seen snow in the past twenty years, and it has fallen this year. We have not seen the lake freeze in the past twenty years, and it has frozen this year.
His cronies came over quickly, leaned over and said, "Li Ci is here. I have something important to tell you. Where can I meet him?"
Wang Luoshen asked: "Where did Xu Xinshu go?"
The subordinate replied: "I went to the city and haven't come back yet."
Wang Luoshen nodded: "Then let Li Ci come here to see me. When Xu Xinshu comes back, ask her to wait for me in the front yard. Just say that I have important things to do in the backyard and no one is allowed to disturb me."
His men responded, turned around and trotted out to make arrangements.
Not long after, Li Ci also came trotting all the way, and when he came to Wang Luoshen's side, he had to salute.
Wang Luoshen said: "Forget it, just tell me what you want."
Li Ci said: "There was news just sent from the imperial garden, saying that because Xin Yanque had not attended the morning meeting for seven or eight days, Ning Weimo went to ask for a meeting with him, but was ridiculed by Xin Yanque."
Wang Luoshen snorted: "Which generation of the Xie family can't have a few prodigal sons? There are still some people in the Xie family who can support the world, but who told our emperor to kill people?
Cruel, I don’t have any talent, and I have cut off all the Xie family’s seeds, and only Xin Yanque is left, so who else can this prodigal son be?”
Li Ci said: "Furthermore, Chen Weiwei has always kept the information locked, and no one is allowed to enter or leave the private courtyard. Therefore, no information can be found out about the case of the Ministry of Personnel for the time being."
Wang Luoshen said: "That guy feels that his wings have become stronger and he can compete with me."
Li Ci said: "Do you need some beating?"
Wang Luoshen nodded: "It's okay to beat him. He's still useful now. Don't really kill him. You can pick a master from half a tael and give him a warning."
Li Ci leaned over: "I understand."
He asked: "Master, do you have any other instructions?"
Wang Luoshen said: "I asked you to arrange for people to keep an eye on Xu Xinshu. Have you made arrangements?"
Li Ci said: "We have found the right manpower, and we can keep an eye on him from early tomorrow morning."
He asked tentatively: "My father-in-law is suspicious. Is there something wrong with Xu Xinshu? Could he be from the emperor?"
Wang Luoshen said with a somewhat serious tone: "She'd better not be."
Li Ci asked again: "What if so?"
Wang Luoshen said: "I'll reward you."
Li Ci leaned over: "I understand what to do, sir. I'll leave first."
Wang Luoshen nodded: "Go ahead."
Not long after Li Ci arrived, he hurried out through the back door of the backyard.
He rushed all the way back to Geling City without stopping. When he returned to Lin Ji's Pawn Shop, he saw a carriage parked at the door. There was no logo, so he couldn't tell which company it belonged to.
When he entered the shop, he saw a man wearing a long coat standing there. He was as fat as a ball. When he turned around, his belly could swing half a circle.
"Who are you?"
Li Ci asked.
The fat man said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Li is really busy. I have been waiting for you for a full hour. I am..."
He leaned forward and said in a lower voice: "The general's people."
Li Ci was shocked.
But only a moment later, he made a decision.
Lin Ye has no one available now, and all the Jianghu forces he arranged in the capital have been driven out of Geling.
Therefore, if Lin Ye still wanted to do some business or find some way in Geling City, he could only send someone to find him.
As soon as he thought about this, Li Ci laughed in his heart. If he didn't have to hold it back, he would laugh out loud.
