Domineering Daming

Chen Qiyu didn't know what Cao Wenzhao was going to do, so he said with a sullen face: "Lord Cao, although I offended Shuntian Mansion before, this is the lobby of Shuntian Mansion after all. Don't you feel that you violated the rules by doing this? You really don't fear the crowd." Is the minister impeached?"

Cao Wenzhao casually threw another document at Chen Qiyu's feet, and said: "Cao Dingjiao is not only my nephew, but also a person whom the emperor focuses on training. Mr. Chen, do you think that the matter is really so simple?"

Chen Qiyu frowned, looked at the memorabilia under his feet, and said: "Cao Zongbing, Cao Dingjiao's affairs are done with the utmost benevolence and righteousness. If you keep pestering me, don't blame me for not being sympathetic!"

Cao Wenzhao looked at Chen Qiyu, and said excitedly: "Can you mobilize the government soldiers to surround me? Or ask the cabinet to come forward? If you use the government soldiers, I will transfer the patrol battalion, or even the imperial army. As for the cabinet, you So what if they are called? If I ignore it, what can they do?"

Cao Wenzhao's words are almost bragging. He can't mobilize the patrol battalion and the forbidden army casually, and it is even more impossible for him to merge with the Shuntian Mansion. The consequences are too serious, even Cao Wenzhao can't afford it. .

But Chen Qiyu didn't think so much. According to his thinking, with Cao Wenzhao's energy, he can easily mobilize whether it is the patrol battalion or the imperial army. He even has no doubt that he can mobilize the garrisons around the capital. After all, the so-called He is the number one confidant of the current emperor.If his government soldiers confronted the patrol battalion or the forbidden army, or even killed them, it would definitely not be as simple as sending him to prison alone to die.

"What exactly does Lord Cao want?" Chen Qiyu asked with a sullen face, suppressing his anger.

Cao Wenzhao's smile remained undiminished, and he said, "Smash Shuntian Mansion!"

"Why?" Chen Qiyu asked coldly.

Cao Wenzhao casually threw away a piece of paper in his hand, and said, "According to what the emperor said, show your presence. I have been away from Beijing for too long, and many people have forgotten me..."

Chen Qiyu naturally didn't believe such nonsense, looked straight at Cao Wenzhao, and said: "Master Cao should know that the capital is not peaceful now, if you cause trouble again, the emperor and the cabinet will not look good on the face, I advise you You should stop."

Cao Wenzhao casually threw the documents, and suddenly said loudly: "By the way, the two missing people in Nanhai are human beings. Does Mr. Chen need my recommendation? With my military achievements this time, the emperor will probably agree to everything... ..."

Chen Qiyu's brows twitched immediately, who would be willing to go to a deserted island thousands of miles away, that would be exile forever!

He couldn't figure out what Cao Wenzhao was going to do, and he couldn't really forcibly drive them away. Now he could only delay the time until the cabinet sent someone to make peace.

Cao Wenzhao was not in a hurry, he threw away all the documents, stood up, and tried the desk in front of him with both hands.

Seeing that Cao Wenzhao was about to lift the table, Chen Qiyu took a deep breath and said, "Lord Cao, no matter what, you must be decent. If you do too much, even if all the officials dare not speak out, sooner or later there will be people who will settle accounts." One day! Today you lift up the table in my Shuntian Mansion, tomorrow someone will tear down your plaque!"

Cao Wenzhao paused, raised his eyes to look at Chen Qiyu, and said with a smile: "If it were someone else, you would have scared them away. But don't worry, I have decided to lift this table, but not just for you to see .”

Chen Qiyu's expression changed slightly, his eyes suddenly sank, and he said, "You did it for Mr. Sun Ge?"

Cao Wenzhao tried it, then sat down again, and said meaningfully: "Not only."

Chen Qiyu had a faint realization, and said: "You did it for the cabinet to see? Why? You don't have to do this at all..."

Cao Wenzhao looked at Chen Qiyu and said, "Your Majesty, the adults in the cabinet have praised you before, so you might as well keep guessing."

Chen Qiyu looked at Cao Wenzhao, and he already understood it in his heart. He said with a deep heart: "Reshaping Gangji is the established plan of the emperor and the court lords. The cabinet needs prestige. I advise Cao lord to be cautious and don't try to make mistakes. agree!"

Cao Wenzhao smiled deeply, looked up and looked outside, and thought to himself, "The cabinet needs prestige, but it also needs to distinguish between priorities..."

Chen Qiyu had guessed it, and she had confidence in her heart, so she stopped arguing with Cao Wenzhao and quietly waited by her side.

Chen Qiyu's "letter for help" reached the cabinet soon. Zheng Youyuan stood in front of Bi Ziyan's desk and said, "My lord, Mr. Sun Ge must have known about it a long time ago. Do you want to inform him?"

Bi Ziyan didn't answer, but said instead: "Tell me, what is Cao Wenzhao trying to do, just to vent his anger on his nephew and show his power to the capital?"

Zheng Youyuan looked at Bi Ziyan, and said suspiciously: "It's also strange to be an official. Cao Wenzhao has always kept a low profile. This time there is such a big commotion, I'm afraid there is another purpose."

"Any other purpose?" Bi Ziyan said thoughtfully, "What purpose could he have? Could it be that he is aiming at the military reform?"

"It should be, now we are waiting for Mr. Sun Ge to take the bait." Zheng Youyuan said with a more determined expression.

Bi Ziyan nodded slightly and stood up.

Zheng Youyuan was startled, and said, "My lord, is this?"

Bi Ziyan looked outside the door and said: "This matter can only be settled with the emperor's nod. Since the emperor needs this step, we have to give it to him."

Zheng Youyuan understood immediately, and said, "What your lord said is, I'll invite Elder Sun Ge."

Bi Ziyan said "Yes". Although he didn't pay much attention to the military reform, he knew very well that they couldn't stop what the emperor was determined to do, and they could only ensure it as safe as possible.

Not long after, Sun Chengzong appeared at the door of Bi Ziyan's class, and the two stood by the door to discuss.

"What do you think?" Bi Ziyan asked concisely.

Sun Chengzong's face was a little cold, his eyes were rather unfriendly, but his tone was unusually calm: "The Ministry of War has drawn up a new reform plan, and I will talk about it after I see Cao Wenzhao."

Bi Ziyan's expression moved slightly. It was the first time he saw Sun Chengzong's expression in the cabinet for many years.

Chapter 863 One move away from chess

The two stood in front of the door, and no one approached.

Bi Ziyan looked at Sun Chengzong and said, "Are you sure you can convince Cao Wenzhao? His attitude is basically equal to that of the emperor."

Sun Chengzong did not answer, but instead said: "Let's see the emperor first, and suppress the matter."

Man Daming is the only emperor who can suppress Cao Wenzhao.Bi Ziyan knew, thought for a while, and said, "Let's go."

The two walked side by side towards Zhu Xu's classroom not far away. Just as they arrived at the door, Cao Huachun quietly appeared, blocked the two of them, bowed slightly and said, "My lords, Your Majesty just took a nap."

Sun Chengzong glanced inside and said, "We have something important to see the emperor, please let me know."

Cao Huachun blocked the two of them, and said in a low voice: "The emperor has very little time to rest, and there is not much time to fall asleep. It is better for the two adults not to disturb."

Just as Sun Chengzong was about to say more, Bi Ziyan suddenly said: "Well, please trouble your father-in-law, and let us know when the emperor wakes up."

Sun Chengzong frowned, looked at Bi Ziyan's expression again, his heart was also moved, and he didn't speak again.

"Okay." Cao Huachun said with a smile.

The two looked at Cao Huachun again, and walked back as usual.

Cao Huachun looked at the backs of the two, turned and walked to the left.

Zhu Xu lay there recliningly, holding a book in his hand, flipping through it quietly, without raising his head, he said, "Going away?"

Cao Huachun stepped forward and said, "Yes, the two elders didn't say much."

Zhu Xu turned a page, nodded with a smile and said, "They must have guessed something, don't worry, take your time."

In Daming's game of chess, Zhu Xu has always been a chess player, but he is also a pawn, but now, he can jump out of the game and become a real chess player!

Cao Huachun didn't quite understand it yet, but he did his duty and didn't ask any more questions.

Sun Chengzong and Bi Ziyan walked out of the cabinet side by side. After walking for a while, Bi Ziyan said: "You have also seen that the emperor does not see us."

A sharp look appeared in Sun Chengzong's eyes, and he said, "Since the emperor is gone, I'll go there myself!"

Bi Ziyan always felt that Sun Chengzong was a bit different today, and said: "What are you going to do? If Cao Wenzhao deliberately loses face to our cabinet, I'm afraid he won't give up easily."

Sun Chengzong said with a blank face, "I also want to see how many people recognize me in these years."
