When night fell, the mistress of the Chen residence ordered the servants to lock the door of the residence and light lamps around the study.Chen Ru, who was reading documents under the candle, raised his head and said, "Go out, I will read for a while by myself."

The study room was quiet for a while, when there was a knock on the door outside, Chen Ru got up and opened the door, a person wearing night clothes, tall and slender, obviously not from the house.

Chen Rudao: "My son."

Xiao Chengyan said: "Master Chen, I am bothering you."

Chen Ru didn't intend to talk about the past with him either, so he said directly: "In the past, the sons and ministers used informants to send messages, so why did you come here on purpose today?"

Xiao Chengyan followed Chen Ru and sat down on opposite sides of the desk. Xiao Chengyan took off his mask, revealing his handsome face and deep eyes, and said, "The tax case has come out, you know?"

Chen Ru showed him the paper on the case table, which was a letter from Lu Feng, which talked about the many officials behind the tax case who were involved in it.

"Taxes are increasing, public grievances are rampant, and the treasury has no money, and corrupt officials are rampant. When Lu Feng comes back in two days, the cabinet will propose a serious investigation of these people." Chen Ru took a rough look, and said, "There should be more people in the town. people."

Chen Ru looked at Xiao Chengyan.

Now he is a little uncertain about Xiao Chengyan's attitude towards Duke Zhen.

Selling himself into the house as a slave, and being humiliated as a male favorite, and being another heir with royal blood, why would he hate him to death?

If the tax case is used as an excuse, it is the best time to destroy some Liang Qing forces.

Xiao Chengyan said: "How to deal with these people, can Mr. Chen listen to my arrangement?"

"My lord, please tell me."

Xiao Chengyan then explained the arrangement. Chen Ru listened for a long while, and then remained silent for a long moment before he realized that Xiao Chengyan wanted to use the tax case to cleanse a group of truly corrupt officials. Among them, the Minister of the Ministry of War was removed first. government people.

Ever since An Dinghou proposed in the court that day that he would temporarily act as Dali Temple Minister, Chen Ru knew that Anding Hou and Zhen Guogong were evil.

Andinghou himself is also the commander in chief of the 30 troops in the northern border of South Vietnam. He has a very wide network of contacts in the army, and the Minister of the Ministry of War is one of them.

Chen Rudao: "I don't understand, the Secretary of the Household Department is also listed, why?"

The Minister of the Household Department should be a member of the Duke of Zhen.Although the Household Department has a great responsibility and the Household Department Minister will inevitably be punished, but according to Xiao Chengyan's plan, he wants this person to be dismounted and expelled from the capital.

Isn't it equivalent to cutting off a huge source of income for Liang Qing?

Xiao Chengyan said: "This person is a fool, if the other party betrays him in the future, it is better to get rid of him as soon as possible."

Xiao Chengyan knew that in his previous life, the Minister of the Household Department turned to himself and betrayed Liang Qing after he learned that the Zhen Guogong's mansion was in trouble.The seller seeks glory and is not worth staying.

"As for arranging someone to take office, I'll trouble Mr. Chen." Xiao Chengyan didn't have anyone in his hands, and his father was not a clique.Besides, he believed that for Chen Ru's character, as long as the superior was a pure minister, that was enough.

Chen Ru lowered his head and thought for a long while, he couldn't help but marvel at Xiao Chengyan's scheming, he felt that this Prince Yu's son was not the pure and good person he thought before, and he was deeply moved.

After Xiao Chengyan explained the business, he thought of something and said: "That day when Marquis An Ding launched an attack on Dali Temple in the court hall, why did Master Chen suddenly refute Marquis Anding's remonstrance?"

"In the matter of Zhangzhou, I have made a lot of omissions. Thanks to Lord Zhen Guo's precautions, the emperor did not suspect me."

Chen Rudao, "Besides, the court atmosphere in Nanyue is bad, and there are very few people who are willing to do practical things. I am very relieved that Lord Zhen Guo helped Lu Feng investigate the tax case. There are too few such things in Nanyue."

"There are many children from aristocratic families in Lin'an who are pampered at home, and they can't lift their hands or shoulders." Chen Ru looked at Xiao Chengyan with old eyes, "My son is resolute and talented, and that's why I chose him."

Xiao Chengyan bowed his head and bowed to him.

In his previous life, he also received a letter from Chen Ru. In the letter, the other party gave him encouragement and implied secret expectations.

But Chen Ru knew that he was in a deep prison and it was difficult to get out, so he could only secretly help him out of danger many times, and uncontrollably hoped that Xiao Chengyan could save Nanyue, a building that was about to collapse.

A few years later, Xiao Chengyan did it, but Chen Ru was killed by 'Liang Qing', so he couldn't see it with his own eyes.

Taking advantage of the darkness, Xiao Chengyan returned to the Duke of Zhen's residence.

As soon as he landed in the main courtyard, he found that the lights in Liang Qing's room were still on.It was late at this time, Liang Qing should have gone to bed.

Xiao Chengyan was standing when the door of Liang Qing's room was pushed open, Xiu Xiu came out and gestured to him.

Xiao Chengyan stepped forward and opened the door and went in.

Liang Qing was looking at something, and when he heard the voice, he raised his head and looked, and saw Xiao Chengyan in night clothes, with a sharp face, and sharp shallow eyes, he looked particularly unfriendly.

He said, "You went out?"

"I went to see Chen Ru." Xiao Chengyan walked by, the candle light flickering slightly.

Liang Qing was taken aback, and said, "The tax case? Have you already explained it to him?"

Xiao Chengyan: "Yes."

Chen Ru secretly helped Xiao Chengyan many times in the original book, and Liang Qing did not doubt that the other party was willing to help.He also discussed the tax case with Xiao Chengyan many times, trying to achieve the most just and fair result.

He was not very sad about the loss of his power.The original owner formed a party for private interests, mostly because of the bondage of interests, and very little he could really use for him, and the original owner has already used this to hurt many real good ministers, indirectly damaged the interests of the people, and done a lot of unreasonable things.

Just like how Xiao Chengyan punished the original owner in the original book, it will happen sooner or later.

Just as Liang Qing was thinking, Xiao Chengyan suddenly stepped forward and kissed him on the forehead.

Liang Qing opened his eyes wide.

Xiao Chengyan took away the book in his hand, and said: "The doctor said, you can't bother yourself, it's time to rest."

Liang Qing lowered his head and coughed a few times. He knew that his body was too weak, and he had lost a lot after being poisoned. He needed to recuperate, so he didn't try to be brave.He lowered his head and pulled the quilt, took out his hand stove, and put his arm in it.

Liang Qing couldn't move her legs, so she had to adjust them by hand.

Xiao Chengyan suddenly got up and went out, and after a while, he turned back.Holding something like a cloth bag in his hand, he came in and walked to Liang Qing's bed, and suddenly stuffed it into his bed.

Liang touched it lightly, it was warm, not very hot, and he was a little puzzled.

Xiao Chengyan said: "You sleep at night, your legs are cold."

Xiao Chengyan discovered this when he was sleeping with Liang Qing in his arms, so Xiao Chengyan asked someone to make an extended version of Mrs. Tang, wrapped in cloth, it is not so hot and can warm his legs.

Liang touched it lightly, and said: "The legs are indeed much warmer under the quilt, and you are so careful."

Xiao Chengyan thought for a while, "Actually, I sleep with my father-in-law, which is warmer."

"No need." Liang Qingcong said kindly, "This is enough for me."

Two days later, Lu Feng returned to Lin'an with evidence and resentment against the inaction of the South Vietnamese court.

The blood and tears of the victims were turned into countless memorials, which were sent to the cabinet and the emperor's desk, and accountability and reflection were constantly going on.The people of Marquis An Ding didn't even cover it up, and they quarreled with Liang Qing's people in the court hall, for fear that no one would be able to live a good year in peace.

The emperor was in a state of desperation, and the cabinet took advantage of the situation to crusade, and finally the court was cleaned up. The two ministers of the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Households stepped down and exiled, and most of the power on both sides was lost.

It was only then that everyone realized that Marquis Anding and Lord Zhen Guo had turned against each other.People in Marquis Anding couldn't understand Liang Qing, a power minister who monopolized power, and Liang Qing was used to being under one man and above ten thousand people, so he also started to suppress Marquis Anding's mansion.

But I didn't expect to fall into a situation where both sides were hurt.

So who the hell won?

As the New Year approached, the Zhen Guo Gong Mansion also purchased a batch of red lanterns and red brocade belts, and Tao Butler cleaned the various parts of the Guo Gong Mansion. The whole mansion was completely new and very beautiful.

Liang Qing was lying on the imperial concubine's couch by the window, holding her chin, looking up at the red plum tree with flower buds hanging outside the window.

The aide came in with a secret letter from Gui Yi, with a mournful face. Ever since the tax case broke out and many officials were sacked, including many Liang Qing people, the aide was always worried that the Zhen Guo government would fall.

Even he became a little dissatisfied with Xiao Chengyan, thinking that the other party just wanted to harm Liang Qing, and Liang Qing was dazzled by masculinity.

Xiao Chengyan followed behind, expressionless, as cold as the sky outside.

Liang Qing picked up the secret letter and read it carefully, all of them were within Xiao Chengyan's prediction.He raised his hand and burned the secret letter, and said: "Nowadays, everyone in the court is in danger, and An Ding Hou wants to promote his own people, so we will find a way to stop them."

The staff said: "My lord, then our people..."

"Smart people must learn to give up," Liang Qing said, "The more you stir up the water in the court, the more difficult it will be for Marquis An Ding to get in. It's best to piss him off, who dares to touch my Dali Temple?" .”

Staff: "..."

He suspected that his father-in-law just couldn't understand An Dinghou, and he had to fight with others if he died or died.

After the staff left, Liang Qing took a sip of tea leisurely, and suddenly felt that there is no good in being a powerful minister, and being an idle prince is the most pleasant.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door, and a servant came in and said, "Grandpa, Feige is sending a letter. This is a letter."

He held a note in his hand, Xiao Chengyan stepped forward to take it, without looking at it, and put it on Liang Qing's table.

Liang Qing lowered her eyes and glanced, her expression changed.

Signed by Fran, who is the national teacher, said, come to see me in the palace.

Xiao Chengyan also saw it, and he remembered that Liang Qing hadn't seen the national teacher for half a month since he was poisoned.According to the past, Liang Qing would go to Moon Court to see the national teacher every five or six days.

Could it be... that Liang Qing's poisoning was related to the national teacher?

A trace of hostility flashed in Xiao Chengyan's eyes.

Liang gently picked up the note, took it to the lamp and burned it.Xiao Chengyan said: "Grandpa, are you going to see me?"

Liang shook his head lightly.He thought very clearly, the national teacher knew that he was poisoned, but he still didn't come to deliver the antidote, either he wanted him to die, or the national teacher knew that he had been poisoned by the Dripping Avalokitesvara.

No matter which one, Liang Qing can no longer sit down to eat with each other calmly like a master and apprentice, and taste the sake made by the other party.

"The national teacher is a noble person and a teacher to me. The position of Lord Zhen is that he helped me to save me from being down and down after I broke my leg. I am grateful in my heart."

Liang Qing didn't know why she had the idea of ​​confiding.Butler Tao couldn't hide things, and the embroidery was too small, so he could only tell Xiao Chengyan that Guiyi wasn't around.

He also believed in the fate of Yinghuo Shouxin and Xiao Chengyan, because it also appeared in the original book.

But he has selfishness.

Xiao Chengyan suddenly asked: "Grandpa, why did you drink that cup of poisoned wine for me?"

That day when Xiao Yue said that a eunuch had died in the House of Internal Affairs, Xiao Chengyan noticed that Liang Qing's expression had changed, and he believed in this guess even more.

Liang Qing fell into his emotions, without thinking too much, and said: "Otherwise, I will kill you, and then I will join forces with these people? Keep Marquis An Ding who colluded with the Queen Mother, and Imperial Physician Miao who sacrificed his life for his master and lost his medical ethics, etc. To embarrass yourself?"

Sometimes he thinks they are dirty.

But isn't it the same for yourself?

Now seeing those villains who flattered and ganged up with him to oppress innocent people being punished as they should, even though he lost his power, he seemed to relax.

Not ashamed, maybe that's the case.

Liang Qing's dark eyes narrowed, and said: "My son, how about I help you to the top?"

His voice was not loud, and the two of them just heard clearly.

Xiao Chengyan watched him approaching him slightly, opened his lips and uttered these outrageous words, his dark eyes were as bright as the stars at night, and the wide dark sleeves slipped off, revealing the thin white and fragile part of his chin propped up wrist.

There was a bang in Xiao Chengyan's mind, it seemed that the superior position was not important anymore, he wanted to build a golden house to surround people.

The author has something to say: refuse to sleep with x

I heard that there is a lot of rain in Zhengzhou, so be careful!
