Xiao Rui said: "During this short period of time when I visited the state capital, I also heard from Mr. Wen He about your support for this king's plan. In order to bring down Duke Xi, you worked hard, thank you for your hard work!"

Wei Zhongxian said respectfully: "The matter arranged by Your Highness, the villain will be crushed to pieces, and he will share His worries for His Highness. Moreover, His Highness wants to investigate Duke Xi, it must be because he is a traitor. Unexpectedly, with the deepening of the investigation, Duke Xi is indeed a traitor. A treacherous person, if His Highness attacks him, it is for the sake of the country and the people, to help the state! The villain's respect for His Highness is like the scorching sun in the sky and the bright moon in the dark night!"

Xiao Rui said: "Lord Wei is also for the country and the people. This king always remembers that Lord Wei's wish is to be a good official who benefits the country! This is a good ideal, but to realize it, Lord Wei has to work harder. Go further! As the saying goes, stand tall and see far, only with greater power can you serve the country better!"

Wei Zhongxian was overjoyed, got up quickly, and respectfully said: "Your Majesty, Liao Zan, although I am willing to serve Your Highness and the country, I am afraid that my power is not enough and it will affect His Highness' great cause!"

"Master Wei has a heart. Compared with Master Wei's loyalty and goodness, Wei Dabao is far worse. By the way, I heard that he and King Jing are colluding. Can Master Wei find reliable evidence?" Xiao Rui asked.

Wei Zhongxian said regretfully: "Reporting to Your Highness, Wei Dabao is extremely cautious. He should have restrained himself a lot after being reprimanded by Hai Dafu. The clues we have found now are not enough to expose Wei Dabao's true face!"

"As the prince of Daxia, how can I tolerate poisonous insects like Wei Dabao harming the East Factory? Don't worry, Lord Wei, I will make decisions for you and help you ascend to the position of steward of the East Factory. However, how to do it depends on Wen He." Mr. and Mr. Feng Xiao." Xiao Rui said.

Wei Zhongxian said respectfully: "The villain understands, the villain understands!"

"In addition, what happened to the woman Wen who delivered the baby and the imperial physician who gave birth to Du Xueqin, king of Chu?" Xiao Rui asked.

Wei Zhongxian said with a smile: "Your Highness, don't worry, it's under control. When the two returned home tonight, they were controlled by villains. I believe that when Chu Wang's concubine wanted to kill someone, she found that the two had disappeared without a trace." If you think about it, you will feel anxious and frightened."

Xiao Rui praised: "It's beautifully done."

At this time, Jia Xu, who had been listening to the side, suddenly said: "Your Highness, according to my opinion, we can let Eunuch Wei find a reason to disclose the news that the imperial physician and Po Wen are under control to Wei Dabao, and Eunuch Wei still wants to say no." There was time for interrogation, but he realized that there was a big problem between the imperial physician and Wen Po. Wei Dabao knew the conflict between King Chu and King Jing, and Wei Dabao cooperated with King Jing. With his money-greedy characteristics, he would definitely interrogate himself. Once he knew the truth, he would definitely Use this big event to extort some money from King Jing, and tell the truth like this. Your Highness, Eunuch Wei, if King Jing knows that the son of King Chu is not the blood of King Chu, what do you think will happen?"

"What a trick to kill with a knife! Wonderful!" Xiao Rui's eyes lit up.

Wei Zhongxian also nodded.

Who knows, Feng Xiao said again: "It's not just about killing people with a knife, but also asking you to enter the urn and throw yourself into the net, but it's not the king of Chu, but the king of Jing! The son of the king of Chu is an evil son, not a royal blood. How did King Jing do it?" Did you know? With a little guidance at that time, King Jing and Wei Dabao's collusion will be involved. Adding Wei Dabao's other criminal evidence at that time, even if Wei Dabao is not dead, it will be difficult for Wei Dabao to be in charge of the East Factory!"

Xiao Rui couldn't help giving a thumbs up.

From the very beginning, Guo Jia and Jia Xu's schemes involved King Chu, Duke Xi, Bai Huhou, Wei Dabao, and King Jing Xiaojing. The domino tilted, and then quickly caused a chain reaction, directly detonating Kyoto, becoming the most shocking event before the Xiaohan solar term!

Now everything is ready and only owes the east wind.

Count the time, the east wind is coming...

Chapter 387: The Game Begins

In the Great Xia Kingdom, all major armies, armies, and local guards are managed by the Five Armies Commander’s Mansion, but they are only responsible for the management of local farmland and military administration. Call the right of a soldier!

Although the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies and the Ministry of War are parallel military agencies, they not only cooperate with each other, but also restrain each other.Moreover, the military management of the Great Xia Kingdom has not yet seen the phenomenon of the Ming Dynasty, that is, the Ministry of War has emptied the military governor's mansion, but this is a conflict of interests between military generals and civil servants, and it will happen sooner or later.

On this day, Ye Xiu, the governor of the Chinese Army, suddenly received an urgent encrypted military bulletin from the border. After much thought, he immediately went to the Ministry of War and met Huo Xingye, Minister of the Ministry of War.

Huo Xingye also read the encrypted military report, and his face became serious: "This... this matter is of great importance, we must ensure that it is absolutely true, otherwise it will be a huge slander!"

Ye Xiu said in a deep voice: "Lord Huo, this military report was issued by Marquis Chang Sheng. Don't you know what he is like? If he didn't have reliable evidence, how could he slander Bai Huhou at will? Bai Huhou is the Queen's cousin , is Duke Xi’s nephew again! Duke Xi’s younger brother passed away earlier, and he regards Bai Huhou as his own son, his own son! So it affects the whole body!”

"This matter is really tricky!" Huo Xingye also felt a headache.Although Bai Huhou was under the management of the Chinese Army's Governor's Mansion, the Ministry of War was responsible for dispatching him. If something happened to Bai Huhou, neither party could get away with it. That's why Ye Xiu came to discuss with Huo Xingye.In addition, the two of them are good friends, so they can better solve the trouble by talking with each other at this time.

Ye Xiu continued: "According to what the letter said, the witnesses and criminal evidence are already on their way to Beijing, and they will arrive in a few days. In my opinion, we should suppress this first, and wait for the witnesses and criminal evidence to arrive. , discussing the next action. Bai Huhou has too much involvement, if there is no sufficient evidence, it will definitely cause trouble."

When Huo Xingye was about to speak, at this moment, Guo Ziyi, the left servant of the Ministry of War, came to the door to ask to see him!

Huo Xingye was taken aback for a moment, and then said to the guard outside the door: "Let Guo Shilang wait in the side hall for a while, and say that the officer is receiving distinguished guests!"

But the guard said: "Master Shangshu, Lord Shilang said that he has a very urgent matter, which is related to Bai Huhou!"

"Oh?" Huo Xingye was surprised. He was discussing Bai Huhou with Ye Xiu, but he didn't expect that the newly appointed Minister Guo also had something important to report.

Ye Xiu thought for a while, then said, "Lord Huo, Guo Shilang is from Luzhou Command and Envoy Division. Although he has just arrived in the capital, he has been in the capital all year round. He may have some information that we don't know. Why don't you see him?"

"Master Ye is right!" Huo Xingye nodded, and then ordered the guards to invite Guo Ziyi in.

Guo Ziyi walked in, saw that Ye Xiu was there, not surprised on his face, and immediately saluted: "Your Majesty, Guo Ziyi pays homage to Lord Huo and Lord Ye!"

Huo Xingye said: "Guo Shilang came to see you in a hurry, did something important happen?"

Guo Ziyi glanced at Ye Xiu, and asked later: "Master Huo, I have received some news about Bai Huhou, look..."

Huo Xingye said: "Master Ye is not an outsider, it's okay, Mr. Guo just say it!"

Guo Ziyi nodded, and said: "I understand! Master Huo is like this! I was fortunate to receive the grace of the Holy Grace and was promoted to be the left servant of the Ministry of War. And I have a friend who works under the command of Bai Huhou. In the past few days, I suddenly sent me a letter Secret letter, the letter said..."

After a pause, Guo Ziyi said in a low voice: "It said in the letter that Bai Huhou seems to be in contact with the dignitaries of Zhao State! The humble official realized the importance of this matter, thought it over and over again, and dared not make a decision without authorization, so I came here to ask for instructions!"

"Oh? Really? There is such a thing?" Huo Xingye took a deep look at Guo Ziyi and asked, "Did Mr. Guo's friends say that there is reliable evidence?"

"There is no direct evidence!" Guo Ziyi shook his head.

Huo Xingye said again: "Master Guo, you should understand that without evidence, just saying that there is something wrong with a prominent military lord is likely to cause a mutiny!"

"Of course I understand, so I'm just here to tell Lord Shangshu!" Guo Ziyi said respectfully.

Huo Xingye and Ye Xiu looked at each other, and said: "Okay, I understand, Mr. Guo is stepping down for now, and the matter of Bai Huwai is put aside for now."

"Yes!" Guo Ziyi stepped back.

Immediately, only Huo Xingye and Ye Xiu were left in the room.

The two looked at each other, and they were silent. After a while, Ye Xiu sighed, "It seems that Guo Ziyi is here, and it is King Xian who is beating us!"

Huo Xingye nodded.

It was less than a month since Guo Ziyi took office as the left servant of the Ministry of War. A friend who was far away at the border received the news and sent him a secret letter. It was not impossible, it was just a coincidence!What's even more coincidental is that when Ye Xiu came to discuss the matter of Bai Huhou with Huo Xingye, Guo Ziyi also came to ask to see him. How likely are the two coincidences?

In addition, Guo Ziyi was once favored by King Xian, and after coming to Kyoto, he turned a blind eye to the solicitation of other princes. Instead, he went to pay a visit to Prince Xian's mansion, so the dignitaries in Kyoto thought he was from King Xian.

So today Guo Ziyi came to report that it was false, and even beat Huo Xingye and Ye Xiu, showing that King Xian already knew the evidence of Bai Huhou's crime. If the two adults suppressed and did not investigate, then don't blame King Xian for being rude.

"Brother Ye, Chang Shenghou rushed to send your military report, so how did King Xian know all of this? Didn't Chang Shenghou also support King Xian, so he also sent him a secret letter?" Huo Hoshino couldn't help but guess.

If the guess is true, then King Xian's power has really sprung up.

Ye Xiu also frowned and said, "The Marquis of Chang Sheng won His Majesty's trust so much that he was able to defend Chang'an, the capital of Xijing. He is smart and alert, and knows how to judge the situation. The Marquis of the Champion and the King of Xian are married, and the two are tied together. But Marquis Chang Sheng has no reason, how can he support it?" King Xian? King Xian is not yet a prince. As a military lord guarding the border, it is taboo to contact the prince! He knows the dangers! And even if he does, he will definitely keep it mysterious, and we won’t let us guess it at will Yes. So I think Marquis Chang Sheng did not serve King Xian, and King Xian got the news through other channels."

"Also, King Xian used Guo Ziyi to beat us. His intentions are vicious. One is to force us to investigate, and the other is to make us think wildly about his relationship with Chang Shenghou! In case we believe that he has something to do with Chang Shenghou, Invisibly, Chang Shenghou was pushed into his camp!"

As expected of Ye Xiu being a treacherous and cunning man, Guo Jia asked Guo Ziyi to beat him, which was indeed the second purpose.

Huo Xingye nodded when he heard Ye Xiu's calculations, and said, "There must be an expert by King Xian's side! Brother Ye, do you think this is a poisonous scheme set up by King Xian to deal with King Chu? Recently, the two of them But don’t deal with it!”

"Brother Huo, stop talking!" Ye Xiu's face changed, and he reminded quickly.

Only then did Huo Xingye realize that if his words spread, he would be impeached by the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but he was not afraid, so he said, "Brother Ye reminded me!"

Ye Xiu thought for a while, and said, "I don't think it's possible! Brother Huo, think about it, it's hard to imagine how difficult it is to be convicted of Baihuhou's crime!"
