Tyrant Whitewashing Plan [Transmigration Book]
Chapter 164
This is simply nonsense.
Regardless of whether Liu Ling's martial arts is superior to Jing Yuan's, whether he loses or not, it still depends on Jing Yuan's meaning?If he didn't want to fight Liu Ling, he could still lose with just a few tricks.
"Okay, Master Yang, the military generals have their own solutions." Xiao Jining interrupted the conversation between the Minister of the Household Department and Jing Yuan, "It's not your turn to worry about it."
Hubu Shangshu had no choice but to respond: "Yes, Your Majesty."
Even though he knew that it would be difficult to find out what happened even if he asked someone to investigate carefully, but in order to appease the ministers, Xiao Jining still handed over the issue of the forbidden army on the Mid-Autumn Festival night to Dali Temple and the Ministry of Criminal Investigation for a thorough investigation, and suspended Jing Yuan from his post. He "rests" at home.
However, the fourth prince's injury was too serious to move, so Xiao Jining allowed the fourth prince to recover temporarily in the palace and leave the palace after he recovered.
In addition, Xiao Jining also gave many rewards to the ministers who were injured at the Mid-Autumn Festival that day. So far, the matter of the Mid-Autumn Banquet finally came to an end.
But there are still some unanswered questions.
For example, Xu Jiuqing is the daughter of a guilty minister, but she saved the sixth prince. Is this a reward or not?For another example, Jingyue was charged with beheading after Qiuhou, once he died, Jingyuan would take over his army, and then Jingyuan would hold more than half of Great Xiao's military power in his hands.Therefore, it is impossible for Xiao Jining to suspend his position for too long. When the limelight of the Mid-Autumn Banquet Forbidden Army is over, Xiao Jining will definitely appoint Jing Yuan again, and what kind of position will he let Jing Yuan hold at that time?
— General Central.
No matter who in the DPRK and China, the first reaction when mentioning Jingyuan's new position is these four words.It happened that when he was the general of the central government, he could no longer serve as the general of the hussars. If there hadn't been the Mid-Autumn Banquet for the Forbidden Army, Jing Yuan might have been promoted by now, and he couldn't have been the general of the hussars at that time either. Yes, it needs to be done by someone else.
The current situation is nothing more than letting Jingyuan rest at home for a while.
Ministers who can figure this out will not publicize it, because they are afraid of offending Jing Yuan; ministers who can't figure this out see Jing Yuan being dismissed, celebrate with the crown, and let's just be proud of the past few days.
No one knew that Xiao Jining and Jing Yuan were quite satisfied with the result.
After all, Jingyue will be executed in half a month, after which the position of general of the central government will be vacated, and besides letting Jingyuan do this position, Xiao Jining is not at ease if it is replaced by anyone, and will be replaced by Liu Ling at that time Jing Yuan and Xiao Jining had already discussed the position of General Hussar, otherwise it would be impossible for Xiao Jining to just point out such a person in the hall.
They just didn't expect that five princes would actually be involved in the Mid-Autumn Banquet of the Forbidden Army.
"I originally thought that the mysterious assassin was only related to your father." Xiao Jining said to Jing Yuan, who was dressed in black and covered his face like an assassin, just entered the dormitory, "I didn't expect that Brother Wu Huang seemed to have some connection with that assassin."
Jing Yuan is no longer the General of Hussars, and naturally he will not be on duty in the palace. Without a reason to enter the palace openly, he can only continue to go back to the old way - sneaking into the palace.
"I don't think so." Jing Yuan took off the mask on his face and replied to Xiao Jining, "Maybe there is a connection, but the fifth prince is definitely not the player in this game of chess, he is just a pawn, I'm afraid He didn't know he was being used too."
From the beginning to the end of this incident, at first glance, it looked like Chen Yu and the Fifth Prince set up a scheme for Xiao Jining and Jing Yuan, but there was one thing that didn't make sense at all - that was the Tubo cavalry that attacked the Sixth Prince.
No matter how bad the fifth prince is, he always has a bottom line, that is, not to form alliances with foreign countries.
He is not stupid. He knows that this kind of thing is just a way to lure wolves into the house. If he is not careful, the Great Xiao may be destroyed. What kind of emperor will he be then?Is the subjugated emperor?
This morning, the Tubo envoy also wrote back to Xiao Jining.The letter said: Those who attacked the Sixth Prince were not Tubo cavalry, but border bandits disguised as cavalry.Tubo and Da Xiao have a deep relationship, and they will never do such a thing.
But Xiao Jining didn't believe this kind of rhetoric.
The relationship between Tubo and Great Xiao is far less tense than that between Turkic and Great Xiao. If this is the stigma deliberately planted by the Fifth Prince, why not just dump it on Turk, but why is it Tubo?
Jing Yuan also asked him, "Do you believe it?"
"Can a group of bandits beat Ji Xingming so completely that he has no power to fight back and almost wiped out his entire army? I don't believe it." Xiao Jining shook his head, "It's either Ji Xingming's intentional release, or they are real Tubo cavalry, or both. I'm starting to suspect now that the assassin who wanted to kill me in Li Xinggong had something to do with Tubo."
But fortunately, the situation is now clearer. The Mid-Autumn Banquet Forbidden Army is not targeting Xiao Jining, but Jing Yuan, which proves that these people are still afraid of Jing Yuan—they know that the biggest weapon in Xiao Jining's hands is not imperial power, but It is Jingyuan who has military power.
If they wanted to deal with Xiao Jining, the first thing they would do was to disintegrate Jing Yuan's power, or drive a wedge between Xiao Jining and Jing Yuan. As long as Jing Yuan was no longer on Xiao Jining's side, it would be a breeze to deal with Xiao Jining.
Xiao Jining frowned and said: "They will definitely think of other ways to deal with you later."
However, before those people dealt with Jing Yuan, Jing Yuan himself brought the handle to Xiao Jining. He said to Xiao Jining: "On October [-]th, the day when Jingyue will be executed, I will go to rob the prison. But it can't be called robbing the prison. I will just replace Jing Yue with a prisoner on death row, and after the execution is over, I will transfer him back to the secret room of my general's mansion to be imprisoned."
"General Jing, you explained this kind of thing to me so clearly." Even though he knew that Jing Yuan would do this, but now hearing him explain the matter of robbery in such a straightforward and detailed manner, Xiao Jining was stunned after hearing it. , and then raised his eyebrows and said, "Isn't it too blatant?"
"Then will His Majesty punish me?" Jing Yuan smiled, put his arms on the bed and approached Xiao Jining.
Xiao Jining asked him: "Is it really me punishing you, or are you going to punish me?"
Jing Yuan said: "You are the emperor, you have the final say."
"Really?" Xiao Jining was very skeptical, he felt that the danger was approaching, and said vigilantly, "But every time I talk to you here, you won't listen."
Jing Yuan said: "I will definitely listen to it next time."
Xiao Jining: "..."
Seven days later, Jing Yue, a famous general of the Great Xiao Dynasty, was sentenced to Qiu Hou Wen's execution for treason.
After another half month, Yunchu's year of autumn came to an end.
The snow fell very early in the capital this year, and the first snow of the year actually fell on the second day after the first frost.
The snow was not too heavy, but because it started to snow at midnight, the entire palace was covered with red walls and white tiles by dawn, and when one stepped out of the palace gate, one could see a vast expanse of white.
Xiao Jining was sitting by the window in the lobby of the first-class building. On the surface, he looked like a leisurely nobleman who was sipping hot tea calmly, and beside him was a handsome servant who refilled tea for him at any time.
And actually?Xiao Jining was listening to the gossip of the people at the next table with his ears up.
After all, Feng Yusheng, the gold-medal storyteller of Yipinlou, hadn't started lecturing yet, and everyone was bored, so they could only pick up some material to talk about. They were either talking about trivial matters or important national affairs—but the emperor went on tour in his insignificant clothes. That's all I want to hear.
It just so happened that the gossip that the tea customers in Yipinlou were talking about today was related to Xiao Jining, to be more precise, they were talking about Xiao Jining and Jing Yuan.
After all, the famous general of the Great Xiao, Jing Yue, had just been beheaded not long ago, but the key point was that his only son, Jing Yuan, had made great contributions to protecting the country because of his righteousness. It is extremely rare to observe the history of all dynasties and dynasties.
After all, Jingyue was only one step away from forcing the palace that day. If Jingyuan hadn't tried his best to stop it, Da Xiao might have changed his dynasty.
But why didn't Jingyuan help his father to force the palace, instead he was loyal to Emperor Yunchu. He was the only son of Jingyue.But Jing Yuan is only willing to be a minister, and no one knows the reason.
The tea drinkers could only guess that Emperor Yunchu and General Jingyuan grew up together with a special relationship, and General Jingyuan was also a soldier who was truly loyal to Great Xiao.
"But if the emperor really has a deep relationship with General Jing, why does he want to remove the post of General Jing?"
"I heard that there was something wrong with the banquet in the Mid-Autumn Festival. Some people said that the trouble was caused by General Jing, so there must be someone responsible for it?"
"I don't believe that General Jing would do such a thing. He has killed his relatives righteously, so how could he harm the emperor?"
……
Tea guests, you and I quarreled so much that at the end of the quarrel, Xiao Jining couldn't hear what they were talking about. Suddenly someone turned around and sat in front of Xiao Jining, and asked him: "Brother Qi, what are you talking about today?" Do you want to listen to the book too?"
Xiao Jining hadn't had time to raise his head, so he could only catch a glimpse of the crow's blue clothes, but when he heard the voice, Xiao Jining recognized him even without raising his head.
"Brother Li?" Xiao Jining looked at the person in surprise, "Long time no see, are you okay?"
The person who came was the one who had met Xiao Jining several times in Yipinlou, and had reminded Xiao Jining that there was a woman with a face similar to his in Yipinlou who often came to listen to Feng Yusheng's lectures.
Afterwards, Xiao Jining seldom came to Yipinlou to listen to books, and he never saw Li Yihui again, but in the few times he came intermittently, he only saw him today.
"I'm fine, thank you Brother Qi for still thinking about me." Li Yihui smiled at Xiao Jining, "See you today by fate, I'll treat you to dinner."
Xiao Jining quickly declined: "No, no, I should be the one who treats you to dinner."
"Then I won't be polite." Li Yi didn't refuse.During lunch, Li Yihui jokingly asked Xiao Jining if he had any new worries recently, or if he was still looking for his sister when he went out this time.
Xiao Jining laughed and said: "No, no, I just came here to relax."
Now he doesn't have the time to care about which princess likes Feng Yusheng or what, but Xiao Jining saw Li Yi's appearance in this fancy dress, and suddenly asked him: "Brother Li, are you from the Jianghu?"
Li Yihui was a little stunned by Xiao Jining's question, paused for a moment and said, "...has traveled in rivers and lakes before."
"Then you must be well-informed." Xiao Jining took out Xiao Mo's drawing of the mysterious assassin's sword from his sleeve pocket, spread it out in front of Li Yihui, and said, "I want to ask Brother Li if he has seen this kind of sword. arms."
Regardless of whether Liu Ling's martial arts is superior to Jing Yuan's, whether he loses or not, it still depends on Jing Yuan's meaning?If he didn't want to fight Liu Ling, he could still lose with just a few tricks.
"Okay, Master Yang, the military generals have their own solutions." Xiao Jining interrupted the conversation between the Minister of the Household Department and Jing Yuan, "It's not your turn to worry about it."
