Hundreds of households in Liaodong, covering the light with one hand

Chapter 298
  "Now that I think about it, the defeat of Shenyang City was not the fault of the generals, but a man-made disaster!" Xiong Tingbi looked heartbroken: "At that time, in the imperial cabinet, except for the Duke of Qi who was in Jizhou Mansion, everyone else was in the court, but they could not The timely support of Liaodong's military equipment resulted in our hundreds of thousands of troops fighting without weapons, marching without robes, and having no food or drink. As a result, it led to a great defeat! But these five people are now sitting peacefully in the middle of the court. Holding the position of Prime Minister of the Cabinet really makes people all over the world sad! It makes the ministers of Zhongzhi sleepless at night! Please clean up the cabinet and thoroughly investigate the Shenyang case!"

Thoroughly investigate the Liaodong case?

How to check?
  Shi Kefa touched his beard: The real principals in Liaodong, starting from Yuan Yingtai, are Wang Huazhen, Xiong Tingbi, and Wang Qi. These are the only three people. If a witness is included, then Yuan Chonghuan is also included.

Counting on one hand, five people.

Now, Xiong Tingbi wants to overturn the defeat of Shenyang City.

And it involves the recent cabinet turmoil.

Then we had to bring in the key figures at the time and have a chat.

Thinking of this, not only Shi Kefa, but also Gu Bingqian was counting on his fingers.

Among the five people, Yuan Yingtai returned to his hometown three years ago. Last month, local officials wrote a letter saying that Yuan Yingtai contracted an illness during the Chinese New Year, and the cold air entered his lungs. He was already dead. The palace and the court even arranged for him to be taken care of. Some medicines were given, and local officials were sent to the old minister's house to comfort people's hearts. This person had nothing to do with the defeat of Shenyang City.

As the core figure in the case, Wang Huazhen was naturally unable to count, so she excused herself for going to the palace and got rid of him first.

As for Yuan Chonghuan, he was just an inspector at that time. Compared with the above-mentioned people, he was not on the stage.

The last remaining ones are the Duke of Qi and Wang Qi.

Gu Bingqian's heart twitched violently.

This civil servant who was very good at speculation looked at Xiong Tingbi and calculated, did he really want to involve Duke Qi?
  At this moment, countless people in the court were looking at the former Liaodong manager who had just escaped from prison.

"Aiqing, what do you mean, how do you want to defend yourself?" Zhu Youxiao's heart was beating wildly as he stared at Xiong Tingbi. Do you want to confront Wang Qi in advance?
  Do not! !

Zhu Youxiao's mind changed quickly. He didn't want to confront Wang Qi.

This matter has nothing to do with him, it is Xiong Tingbi. Xiong Tingbi wants to use Wang Huazhen's case to bring down Wang Qi directly!

Sure enough, Xiong Tingbi said: "Although the defeat in Shenyang City has nothing to do with the Duke of Qi, given the prestige of the Duke of Qi in Liaodong, if he is not allowed to intervene, I am afraid that he will be blamed in the future and the common people will ask." Xiong Tingbi bowed again and kowtowed. : "The Duke of Qi returns to Beijing to set the record straight!"

Summon the Duke of Qi to Beijing?

Do you, Xiong Tingbi, think Wang Qi will not protect his uncle Wang Huazhen?

In the hall, everyone stared at Xiong Tingbi standing there with surprised expressions.

Zhu Youxiao was stunned with his mouth wide open: You are not trying to pull Duke Qi down, but you are preparing to overturn the table in the court!

After a trip to prison, even his behavior became so radical and decisive?

An ordinary person would never dare to confront Wang Qi at this time.

If you provoke Wang Qi, if there is a chaos in Liaodong, the emperor sitting on the throne will not protect you. He is afraid that he will be the first to kill you to appease the hearts of the soldiers and generals in Liaodong, or in other words, to appease Wang Qi's heart.

"If you have a grievance, I," Zhu Youxiao touched his chin and said hesitantly: "I can write a decree and ask the Duke of Qi to make a complaint on my behalf, but now the Duke of Qi is preparing for the marriage to my imperial sister, so it is not easy to do so easily. "Leave Zhucheng" - Let Wang Qi come back now?
  Didn't the stall that Zhu Youxiao worked hard to run in the court fall apart in an instant?

Zhu Youxiao's words made Xiong Tingbi silent for a while.

"Your Majesty, what we were discussing just now was the treatment of Ye Xianggao, Wang Huazhen, Sun Chengzong and others, not the Duke of Qi." After a while, Wei Zhongxian finally came out to smooth things over, lowered his head and whispered almost: "Your Majesty, as long as Shenyang City fails, If the blame is placed on Ye Xianggao and others, it is a success, no matter whether it is the case or not, as long as Wang Qi is trapped in Zhucheng, the influence of the Duke of Qi will slowly disappear. "

Nodding without trace, Zhu Youxiao's eyes moved from Xiong Tingbi to Gu Bingqian.

"Your Majesty," after feeling Zhu Youxiao's gaze, Gu Bingqian immediately bowed and answered: "I think that since there is not only the murder case in Wenyuan Pavilion, but also the suspicion of the war under Shenyang City, there is reason to move the cabinet to All ministers will be dismissed, and all their official positions and salaries will be suspended at the same time, and they will be dealt with after the case has been heard and concluded by the Three Law Departments!"

"In order to ensure that the court affairs can proceed smoothly during this period, I propose to re-elect the cabinet members! This will calm people's hearts and make the ministers feel at ease!"

At first glance, Gu Bingqian's words were completely fair.

But it fell into the ears of Shi Kefa and others: That was paving the way for him to enter the cabinet.

"Little man!"

Shi Kefa sneered and already spoke: "You can't remove important ministers from the cabinet with just a few words. Mr. Gu, you are so anxious and eager to get the upper hand that you can no longer hide it!"

"Whatever you say, I am doing this entirely for national affairs, not for any personal selfishness," Gu Bingqian said solemnly: "If you think someone has selfish motives, you can nominate one or two people. The saints are in the court, and all the ministers are in the court. You can all comment on it!”

As soon as these words came out, before Shi Kefa could speak, Zhang Shenyan, who was standing at the forefront of the courtiers, suddenly twitched his eyebrows.

It is already certain that all the ministers in the cabinet will leave, so as a veteran of three dynasties, it is natural for him to enter the cabinet, right?
  Furthermore, I am the only remaining veteran of Donglin in Beijing. If I can enter the cabinet, it will also be the guarantee for Donglin’s comeback!
  Thinking of this, Zhang Shenyan's eyes were already looking at Shi Kefa - his eyes were burning, and he was obviously looking forward to it.

"You" were defeated by Gu Bingqian. Shi Kefa was not quick-witted and obviously did not notice the look Zhang Shenyan was looking at him. Perhaps Shi Kefa, who was famous as a direct minister, had not considered this issue and immediately said angrily: "Do you want to Someone has become the target of public criticism?" As he spoke, Shi Kefa bowed to Zhu Youxiao on the throne and said: "Your Majesty, please put it into public opinion, and it cannot be decided by one person!"

Zhu Youxiao didn't have any reaction to Shi Kefa's words. He just raised his eyebrows and didn't reply.

Zhang Shenyan, who was standing at the front, changed his expression from expectation to disappointment.

Do not,
  It's dissatisfaction!
  "Your Majesty, I propose that Zhang Shenyan be appointed as the chief minister of the cabinet, in the name of upholding the authority of the imperial court!"

what?
  Shi Kefa's pupils suddenly shrank when he heard this.

Hearing this, he turned to look at the source of the sound.

I saw Gu Bingqian standing there, bowing to the end.

Alienation meter?
  What a conspiracy!
  On the other side, Zhang Shenyan's expression was extremely exciting.

Even Jiang Yueguang was stunned.
