Chapter 183 Wang Ying returns to Beijing

Wang Ying is about to return to Beijing, and the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of War are also making preparations to welcome him, and Zhu Qiyu will also go to welcome him.

Lin Cunde was still worried about what kind of trouble would arise. After all, civil servants did not want military generals to have too much power. However, Lin Cunde didn't know whether any action would be taken, even though he had warned them last time.

But who knows what else they can do?

Before the imperial edict was issued, Lin Cunde did not dare to take it lightly, so in the past few days, he also took a good look at Wang Zhi.

The Qin family also sent someone to send a message to Lin Cunde, telling him to keep an eye on Wang Zhi and not let him go out to play.

Three days later, when Lin Cunde woke up, he heard the news that Wang Ying would return to Beijing this morning.

Zhu Qiyu had already left the city to greet him.

After Lin Cunde and Wang Zhi practiced martial arts, they joined the Qin family and went out of the city to greet them.

From a distance, I saw Wang Ying and his generals coming from the southwest.

There is a set of etiquette to welcome the soldiers returning home in triumph, and the Ministry of Rites is responsible for these.

The Ministry of War also needs to reward the soldiers who have returned from the expedition, and those soldiers need to return to the military camp on the outskirts of Beijing.

The ceremony was very long, and Lin Cunde and the others were watching from a distance. Most of the people in the capital were here to watch, and it was a sea of ​​people. Lin Cunde and the others just found a relatively good seat to watch.

Near noon, the ceremony ended. Wang Ying took some senior military officers and followed Zhu Qiyu to the palace.

At noon, Zhu Qiyu held a banquet in the palace to entertain the generals who had returned in triumph.

Lin Cunde was very worried. In the past two days, there were rumors in the capital, most of which were directed at himself, and some were directed at Wang Ying.

At noon, Lin Cunde returned to the mansion, and Wang Zhi followed the Qin family back. It is estimated that Wang Ying will be able to go home in the afternoon.

"I haven't asked yet, who spread the rumor?" Lin Cunde asked Lin Cunyi behind him.

In the past few days, some people have been adding fuel to the flames and alienating the relationship between themselves and Wang Ying. Those people have attributed all the credit for Wang Ying's battle to themselves.

"No, this is difficult to find out!" Lin Cunyi also said worriedly.

"Yeah!" Lin Cunde sighed.

Thinking that this matter still needs to be explained to Wang Ying, Wang Ying cannot be unhappy.

In addition, if this matter angers Wang Ying, Wang Ying's character will soon make mistakes. When the time comes, the reward will only embarrass Zhu Qiyu.

Civil servants have many tricks, and you don’t even know who is the mastermind.

In Miao Zhong's mansion, Peng Shi and Gao Gu were chatting with Miao Zhong. Miao Zhong was recovering well these days.

"During this period, His Majesty revealed that he hopes Jiang Yuan will join the cabinet. He also intends to mobilize Jiang Yuan to go to the Ministry of Household Affairs!" Gao Gu sat there and looked at Miao Zhong and said.

Miao Zhong just half-closed his eyes and listened to them quietly.

"In addition, there are rumors that His Majesty wants to promote Yu Gang from Zhongshushe to the cabinet!" Peng Shi also looked at Miao Zhong and said.

Miao Zhong then said, "What does Chen Ge always mean?"

Gao Gu smiled bitterly and said: "It tastes indescribable, and there seems to be no reaction!"

"No reaction is just a reaction. I guess Mr. Chen Ge doesn't want to object to this matter. If he objects, His Majesty will really use his killing moves. Your Majesty will take advantage of the great victory in Hequ to kill a few ministers. It is still possible to kill a few ministers. If you provoke Your Majesty in this matter, the gain will outweigh the losses." !" Miao Zhong opened his eyes and looked at the two of them and said.

"Jiang Yuan is obviously completely obedient to His Majesty. I don't know what happened to Yu Gang!" Gao Gu said worriedly.

Peng Shi also sighed and said: "If Jiang Yuan joins the cabinet, the household department will be in trouble. Chen Ge's control over the household department will not be so easy, and Jin Lian may not be Jiang Yuan's opponent. If your majesty transfers Jin Lian, "Lian, Mr. Chen Ge cannot support the household department alone. If the household department is completely controlled by His Majesty, I'm afraid!"

"Yeah!" Miao Zhong hummed.

"If Mr. Miao Ge can hold on for another year, maybe it won't be so difficult!" Gao Gu looked at Miao Zhong and said, hoping that Miao Zhong would continue to serve in the cabinet.

Miao Zhong waved his hand and said: "I am already eighty years old and may leave at any time. Besides, my energy is running low and I really can't hold on anymore. Since you are afraid of Jiang Yuan joining the cabinet, then find a way to push it away." Yu Gang joins the cabinet. Yu Gang is just a member of the Zhongshushe. He will not have much influence on Mr. Chen Ge and you. The only thing you have to guard against is Jiang Yuan. If Jiang Yuan goes to the Ministry of Husbandry, then the Ministry of Works will need to fight with the Ministry of Personnel in advance. It’s good to say hello, we can’t let Jiang Yuan recommend people, we have to let the officials choose the people!”

"Even so, if His Majesty wants to make a decision, who can do anything?" Gao Gu reminded again.

"Yeah! We can talk!" Miao Zhong sighed and said.

"Talk, how to talk?" Peng Shi looked at Miao Zhong in confusion.

"Your Majesty intends to reward Lin Cunde. Now, there are many rumors outside. These rumors are not good for Lin Cunde's reward. You can use this matter to exchange. Let's talk about keeping Jiang Yuan in the Ministry of Industry first. After all, the Ministry of Industry will be controlled by the Ministry of Household Affairs and the officials. Therefore, Jiang Yuan cannot jump very high. If Your Majesty does not agree, Jiang Yuan will go to the Ministry of Husbandry and the candidates from the Ministry of Works to the Ministry of Personnel in exchange for Lin Cunde being granted the title of earl. We have no objection! Of course, this is The matter needs to be discussed by Yu Qian! You must let Yu Qian talk about it. If Yu Qian doesn't go, the officials of the Ministry of War will find a way to change it!" Miao Zhong leaned there and said.

Peng Shi and Gao Gu both nodded after hearing this.

"However, this matter still needs to be discussed with Mr. Chen Ge! We can't stop Lin Cunde, and this rumor is beneficial to us. In exchange for this, it is very good!" Miao Zhong looked at it! The two of them said. "The rumors helped a lot!" Peng Shi said with a smile.

"Humph!" Miao Zhong smiled, and Gao Gu knew it immediately. These rumors may have something to do with Miao Zhong. Miao Zhong was ruined by Lin Cunde. In addition, Miao Zhong was already eighty and had been awarded the official memorial. How could he Afraid of Lin Cunde?

"Mr. Miao Ge, I'll go talk to Mr. Chen Ge about this!" Gao Gu immediately said to Miao Zhong.

"Okay, I've almost run out of gas, and there isn't much left to help you. I hope you can support and take care of my descendants in the future. This matter can be regarded as my last gift to you, eh! "Miao Zhong knew that Gao Gu understood, so he said this.

"Thank you, Mr. Miao Ge. Don't worry, Mr. Miao Ge!" Gao Gu stood up and raised his hands to Miao Zhong. Peng Shi didn't understand yet, but he also stood up and raised his hands to Miao Zhong.

Soon the two of them left Miao Zhong's mansion. On the carriage, Peng Shi asked Gao Gu, and Gao Gu also told Peng Shi his guess. Peng Shi suddenly realized that before, they were wondering why there were still rumors about Lin Cunde. Other ministers probably don't have the courage.

But no one thought that it was Miao Zhong who did it, and Miao Zhong did dare to do it. Even if Lin Cunde knew about it, he probably couldn't do anything to Miao Zhong, let alone retaliate. If Miao Zhong died, then Lin Cunde would jump in The Yellow River can no longer clean it.

Chen Xun said before that Lin Cunde was a piece of shit, and now Miao Zhong did the same.

After Gao Gu and Peng Shi left, Miao Zhong sighed deeply. He wanted to suppress Lin Cunde, but he was old, and he and Chen Xun were the same, with many descendants. If he couldn't crush Lin Cunde to death at once, , they dare not take action.

Therefore, now he can only sit back and watch Lin Cunde grow up.

There was no chance of assassinating Lin Cunde. Lin Cunde always brought guards with him when he went out.

Miao Zhong was lying on the recliner, squinting and thinking about the layout of the court. He also knew in his heart that it was not long before Zhu Qiyu took charge of the government alone.

In the palace, Zhu Qiyu was very happy and toasted Wang Ying three times. He was really grateful to Wang Ying. With his determination to die, he fought a battle that everyone thought was impossible to win and helped him stabilize his throne. .

This father-in-law really dares to fight for himself.

Wang Ying was also happy, so she drank too much.

Zhu Qiyu ordered people to send Wang Ying back to his mansion. Zhu Qiyu himself drank too much, so he stayed in Qianqing Palace.

Wang Ying returned to the house and fell asleep soundly. When she woke up, it was almost dark.

After Wang Ying woke up, she went to the living room. Mrs. Qin also found clothes for Wang Ying. Wang Ying was out on an expedition and her body was smelly.

"Have you ever caused trouble?" Wang Ying sat there and asked Wang Zhi, who was sitting below.

"No, ask my mother, I am honest and go to my brother-in-law's house to study every day!" Wang Zhi immediately stood up and said with cupped hands.

"Zhi'er has become much more sensible after you went to war!" Mrs. Qin also said with a smile.

"That's good, I'm going to take a shower first! Just wait here, I'll talk to you about something later!" Wang Ying said and left, with Mrs. Qin following behind.

About half an hour later, Wang Ying came in from outside and saw Wang Zhi holding a book and reading it. She didn't know whether she was reading it carefully or not.

"Speak in the study!" Wang Ying walked towards the study with a dark face and hands behind her back.

When Wang Zhi saw his father's face, he was frightened. He had done nothing. Why did his father look so bad?

But my father wanted to do it, and I didn't dare not go, so I could only follow him in.

When he arrived in the study, Wang Zhi closed the door.

"Go make tea!" Wang Ying said, leaning back on the lounge chair next to her.

Wang Zhi sat on the tea table very honestly, preparing to make tea.

"Your grandfather is here? Didn't you chop him to death?" Wang Ying said coldly as he lay there.

"Ah, dad, he, I, he said he wanted to remove our father and son from the family tree!" When Wang Zhi heard what Wang said, he knew it must be his mother who said it.

"Hmph, I can't wait to be expelled from the family tree!" Wang Ying said with a cold face.

"Dad, they went too far. They cursed you to death and came to snatch our share of soap and soap workshop. They also said that I will deal with them in the future!" Wang Zhi said very angrily when he thought about this.

"Well, they really wanted me to die, but I'm not dead, I'm still alive and well!" Wang Ying gritted her teeth and was very angry.

"Dad, anyway, it's better not to have this relative in our family. Not to mention the benefits, it's worse than others. At least others don't dare to care about our family's money so blatantly!" Wang Zhi said to Wang Zhi while washing tea. Ying complained.

"Well!" Wang Ying nodded, sat there in deep thought, and then asked: "Don't talk about them, I will handle their affairs. Tell me about the news in the capital while I am away!"
