play self pity? Acting weak? The concubine Jiaojiao went crazy

In the Prime Minister's Mansion, on Lantern Festival night, the whole family was busy.

But because of a sudden piece of news, all interest was disturbed.

Wang Sheng left the banquet in the main hall and returned to the study.

When Wang Cong saw his father like this, he immediately got up from the table and followed his father to the study.

At the night banquet, everyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion also restrained the excitement.

Over here, in the Prime Minister's Mansion, in the study.

Wang Sheng looked at his confidants and asked directly: "Xu Jing and Jiang Si went to Zheng Yi's mansion and stayed for nearly a day. After leaving Zheng Yi's mansion, they did not return to their homes separately. Returned to Yushitai."

The subordinate said seriously: "Yes, sir, according to our spy investigation, Xu Jing and Jiang Si originally went to Zheng Yi's house without bringing anything with them, but when they came out, they were holding a large stack of files. On the day of the Lantern Festival, it was supposed to be a time for the whole family to get together, and it was during the New Year's Day anyway. However, they did not go back to their own homes, but went to the Yushitai. This shows that Zheng Yi had told them important things. Go do it.”

Wang Cong was silent and frowned when he heard this, "Judging from the current situation, Zheng Yi can pay so much attention to it and let his two most important officials handle it. The only way to do it is with his father." That’s why it’s related to things, right?”

The servant nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, the young master said so."

Wang Sheng's face darkened, "A few years ago, everything was calm, and during the New Year's Day, there was no movement. It happened that on this Lantern Festival day before the New Year's Day, something like this happened. It’s really unexpected.”

Wang Cong said: "Father, maybe it's something else. Zheng Yi is just bluffing. Ever since the incident at the Ministry of Household Affairs and the entire Su family were dealt with, there have been no problems here. Everything is safe. Where? Zheng Yi can suddenly find out what's wrong with him."

Wang Sheng: "Zheng Yi, if it is not an important matter, he cannot find Xu Jing and Jiang Si at the same time. He can't even let them spend this New Year and celebrate today's Lantern Festival. It must be There is something important, and I am the only one who can make Zheng Yi spend so much time on it."

Wang Cong: "But, father, we are safe here. If Zheng Yi could find the problem, he would have found it long ago. Why at this time?"

Wang Sheng looked at his trusted subordinates and said, "Is there anyone over there at the Yushitai who continues to stare at you?"

The subordinate replied: "They were all watching, but Xu Jing and Jiang Si entered the Yushitai and never came out."

Wang Sheng also had a lot of worries in his heart, but he remained stable on the outside.

Wang Cong could see that even if his father still looked natural, how could he, as a son, not know what his father was thinking, "Father, tomorrow is the first court meeting in the new year. As long as Zheng Yi takes action tomorrow, It shouldn’t have anything to do with my father’s side.”

Wang Sheng glanced at his son and said nothing. Zheng Yi wanted to deal with him. He did not deny that since the emperor ascended the throne, Zheng Yi had risen to the top. But compared with his Wang family, the Zheng family wanted to deal with him. They stepped on it, but it was not enough, but Zheng Yi, as the censor doctor, was in charge of the censor's stage and supervised all the officials, and the emperor was behind him.

If this time, Zheng Yi's sudden action was controlled by the emperor, then it would be quite tricky.

Indeed, this matter will depend on whether Zheng Yi can do something in the morning meeting tomorrow.

Wang Sheng: "Okay, don't worry too much. No matter how big the problem is, I will still be able to take care of it."

Wang Cong: "Father..."

Wang Sheng waved his hands and said, "You go down first. The family dinner just now has not been used up. You go over and greet the family for father."

Wang Cong finally obeyed his father's words, "Yes."

Then, after Wang Cong left, Wang Sheng looked at his confidants, "I will always feel uneasy until this matter is confirmed. Since Xu Jing and Jiang Si are both at Yushitai, you But if you are sure, let’s visit the Yushitai at night to find out what they are dealing with?”

The subordinate bowed and said: "I can try my best. It is still the Chinese New Year, and there are not as many guards as usual on the Yushitai."

Wang Sheng reminded: "Be careful. This is the capital. Even during the New Year, everyone is not so focused and seems to be slacking off. But not everyone is like this. If Zheng Yi does this, what is behind it?" As a leader, there may not seem to be many people on the Yushitai, but there will definitely be people watching in the dark. If you notice something is wrong, withdraw immediately and don't let yourself fall into crisis."

The subordinate said: "Yes, I will remember your words, sir, and I will act with caution."

Wang Sheng: "Go."

The subordinate didn't hesitate any longer and immediately left the study to do the things assigned by the Prime Minister.

Wang Sheng looked at the backs of his confidants leaving, sitting in the study. He was the only one left in the study, and the quiet atmosphere was extremely quiet.

Faintly, only the square candlestick placed on the table was burning with candles, making sizzling sounds from time to time.

It is said among the people that good things come when candles explode, but at this moment, in his case, this is not a good thing, it is even a bad start.

Years ago, Lin Ming had told him that the Ministry of Civil Affairs had dealt with all the officials at all levels involved with him and the Wang family. As long as Lin Ming was at his level, there would be no problems. Under control, nothing should happen!

Officials——

Wang Sheng's eyebrows almost wrinkled. The more he thought about it, the worry and panic in his heart could not be suppressed. If Lin Ming betrayed him.

It was impossible. Lin Ming was his subordinate. Even though the Lin clan itself had a good foundation and was not completely dependent on him and the Wang clan, no one could deny that Lin Ming was his subordinate.

However, even if Zheng Yi wanted to communicate with Lin Ming secretly and use Lin Ming and the officials to obtain information from him, it would not be easy to bribe Lin Ming and obtain valuable information from him.

And Lin Ming should also know what the Lin family will face once they betray him and the Wang family. This is absolutely impossible.

The night outside the window is getting darker and heavier, and accompanied by the sound of the night wind, there is obviously no cold wind blowing into the study, but I don't know why, at this time, there is a cold feeling everywhere.

Wang Sheng sat here alone, his heart twisted into a ball. He had been in the court for many years, and even the previous incidents in the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Households, which caused him to lose important arms, could not make him so uneasy.

This is the first time this has happened to him.
