After the rebirth, the queen took the Meiqiang tragedy script

Chapter 110 Wang Lisong

Ye Qinghuai was leaning on the armchair, resting her chin in one hand, and gently clasping the book case with the other, but her eyes were always fixed on the secret report on the small table not far away.

The secret report succinctly reported three things.

First, Yingzhou Jiedu envoy secretly went to Beijing last night, stayed overnight in Gu's residence, and left Beijing early this morning.

Second, Wang Lisong arrived in Beijing today. Before entering the city, he was ambushed by a group of men in black in the outskirts of Beijing. Wang Lisong was robbed, but the robbers did not hurt him, but released him not far from the carjacking .

Third, the main force of the Zhongzhou Army, about 10 people, moved to Shengjing in the name of exercises and stationed at Shilipo, a hundred miles east of Shengjing.

These three things seemed unrelated, but Ye Qinghuai felt that they seemed to be connected by an invisible thread behind them.

The matter of Wang Lisong's arrival in Beijing has already been reported to the court today. According to the previous agreement between Ye Qinghuai and Gu Shihai on Chengtianmen, tomorrow morning will be the day for Wang Lisong to go to the palace to express his feelings.

What's the matter?Naturally, it was the truth about how he was imprisoned and why he missed the interrogation of the three divisions.

Although the Chunwei fraud case had already ended with Shi Taiping dismissed from his post and exiled, and Qian Deliang, the servant of the Ministry of Punishment, was also responsible for the three divisions' interrogation, but Gu Shihai, the mastermind behind these two cases, still sits firmly on the mountain.

For Gu Shihai, perhaps, as he himself said, it was just replacing one or two incompetent subordinates.

And Wang Lisong's testimony is most likely to be the most powerful evidence to bring down Gu Shihai directly.

Otherwise, Gu Shihai wouldn't target him repeatedly.

But Gu Shihai obviously won't sit still.

The change of the Zhongzhou Army is the best evidence.

Three days ago, Yingwei submitted an informant, saying that there was an urgent secret report sent from the Gu family to the Zhongzhou military camp.

Dajing implements separate control of civil and military affairs.In the state capital, the governor and Jiedushi, the two leaders of Wen and Wu, are on an equal footing.

In other words, the local military power is completely in the hands of Jiedushi.Jiedushi is generally appointed directly by the emperor.

Today, the Jiedu Envoys of Zhongzhou and Yingzhou are all Gu Shihai's disciples.The movement of the Zhongzhou army to the vicinity of Gyeonggi must have been ordered by Gu Shihai, with the intention of putting pressure on the emperor.

If Ye Qinghuai forced Gu Shihai into a hurry, he would most likely order the Nine Guards of Gyeonggi to open the city gate and welcome the Zhongzhou army into the city in the name of the Qing emperor.

At that time, Ye Qinghuai only had a forbidden army of more than 10,000 people in his hands, but he had to face an enemy army of [-]+ people.

It's like hitting a stone with an egg.

Ye Qinghuai frowned.

Gu Shihai has a strong nature, as can be seen from his desperate choice during the Renshen Palace Incident, he is a person who would rather be broken than whole.

What he can do, Ye Qinghuai really can't say.

What's more, even if she dared to gamble, the courtiers would not allow her to be so aggressive and compete with the fate of the country.

No one in the court knew about such a big move by the Zhongzhou army.And Gu Shihai's intentions have already been revealed.

Ye Qinghuai could almost imagine that if Wang Lisong pointed out by name at the court tomorrow morning that Gu Shihai used his power for personal gain to instigate Chunwei's fraud and the three divisions' interrogation and subcontracting, the courtiers might overwhelmingly support Gu Shihai, and they might even turn his back on Gu Shihai. The question was pushed back to Wang Lisong. Wang Lisong, who had just been rehabilitated and returned to Beijing, might be sent to Leizhou again.

Ye Qinghuai clenched his fists and sighed.The current her is far from being able to challenge Gu Shihai head-on.

She looked at the secret report from afar, frowning.

Looking at it, Ye Qinghuai suddenly found an obvious strangeness in this report, which she should have noticed at first sight.

That is the description of the section about Wang Lisong being robbed.

Wang Lisong's return to Beijing this time was apparently escorted by the Leizhou Yamen, and secretly followed by Yingwei. He was able to rob people under the noses of these two groups of people, and he did it in the suburbs of Beijing. Except for Gu Shihai, Ye Qing I can't think of anyone else with such ability.

But the strange thing is that he took so much trouble to kidnap the person, but in the end he did nothing and let him go.

This made Ye Qinghuai puzzled.

Something must have happened that Ye Qinghuai didn't know about.

Ye Qinghuai sat alone in the Qinxian Hall for more than half an hour, and finally, she pushed the door out and said to Li Baoquan who was waiting outside: "Li Baoquan, at dawn tomorrow, you can go to the posthouse where Wang Lisong is staying to pass the news." The purpose is to say that I think he has traveled long distances at an advanced age, and he is tired of boats and cars. Allow him to rest for a few days before going to the palace to make a statement. Then you bring him into the palace. If I want to see him, let him wait for my lord in the Wenxuan Palace. towards."

Li Baoquan didn't ask any further questions, and agreed.
-
The next day, Chao Ye Qinghuai rushed to Wenxuan Hall with great strides.

Li Baoquan did not accompany her to court today, and had already waited outside Wenxuan Hall.

"Where is the person? Did you bring him into the palace?" Ye Qinghuai hurriedly asked as soon as they met.

"Bring it in, wait inside the main hall." Li Baoquan replied while trotting beside her.

"What trouble do you encounter?" Ye Qinghuai asked again.

"If you go back to His Majesty, there will be no obstacles along the way, and it will be smooth."

Ye Qinghuai nodded. Seeing that she had reached the gate of the main hall, she stopped, stood outside the gate, straightened her clothes, and then went inside.

An old man was sitting on the side seats in the main hall, wearing a gray-brown cloth robe, with half-white hair tied on the top of his head in a hairstyle commonly used by scholars, and the beard on his lips and chin was also somewhat gray.Although he is over sixty years old, he has an upright sitting posture and a hale and hearty spirit, without the slump of an old man, nor the exhaustion of the traveler.

Seeing Ye Qinghuai and Li Baoquan coming in, he immediately stood up, saluted Ye Qinghuai, and said: "The sinner, Wang Lisong, sees Your Majesty."

He is quite tall, even taller than Ye Qinghuai when he stood up.But when he bowed to Ye Qinghuai, there was a sense of sincere admiration in it.

It's not flattery or flattery, it's just pure admiration.

Ye Qinghuai felt a little excited.

After so much tossing back and forth in this life, after hearing all kinds of words and deeds of Wang Lisong from so many people, today she finally saw the real Wang Lisong.

With just one glance, she can be sure that the real Wang Lisong is in front of her.

When Ye Qinghuai saw him, the plaque with Wang Lisong's inscription on the gate of Wenxin Hall unconsciously appeared in Ye Qinghuai's mind.

The word is like its person.

It is indeed the ambition of the green pine, the style of a gentleman.

Ye Qinghuai hurriedly stepped forward to support his arm and said: "Please get up the sacrificial wine, there are no criminals here. I have found out the case of Chunwei's fraud, and it was not the work of the sacrificial wine. I have been wronged by the sacrificial wine these days."

But Wang Lisong refused to straighten up, and said: "The old minister's crime is not about Chun Wei, but as a minister, not only can't share the worries for His Majesty, but instead makes His Majesty worry, it's really a big mistake."
