Wangfu little dumb wife

Chapter 291 The First Cooperation (2 More)
After staying at home for a year, Su Xiang not only didn't get moldy, but he had more to worry about in this year than in previous decades.

First, the investigation of Wen Wan's identity was blocked everywhere, and then Song Wei was attacked many times.

However, just like hitting an evil, every time the plan is perfect, something will always go wrong at the end.

As a result, Song Wei still went up and down the office without distraction every day, while Su Xiang squatted at home, watching him go up and down the office without distraction every day.

Finally, he turned his attention to Lao Qi, not only did the fire not burn Su Qing to his own camp, but also burned the whole family to the border area, and now there is no news of him.

This year, whatever Su Xiang did not go well, anyone who beat him would be unlucky.

He almost took his son in, but he didn't get any benefits, but a lot of money flowed out.

On the day of entering the imperial court, after Su Xiang put on the court clothes, he went for a stroll outside the room where the Pixiu was placed. When he came back, he asked people to carry out the golden animal with hot eyes and melt it down, and strictly prohibited anyone in the house from If you wear Pixiu, if you violate it, you will be dragged out and beaten to death with sticks.

Su Xiang is very good at self-construction. Pixiu is melted, the days of suspension are over, and it's time for him to be proud of himself.

However, as soon as he left the house, he was told that the emperor was unwell today and would not go to court.

Su Xiang: "..."

It's definitely not that it's bad to go out, it's just a coincidence.

He changed out of his court clothes, glanced at the radiant spring garden, and with rare interest, picked up the shower, and went to water the flowers under the eyes of all the servants.

-

The imperial city at this time is Qianqing Palace.

Song Wei responded to Eunuch Cui's call and stood aside after saluting to Emperor Guangxi.

Emperor Guangxi pinched the center of his eyebrows and asked Song Wei, "Does Song Aiqing know about Prime Minister Su's entry into the court?"

Song Wei nodded, "I heard that it is today."

It was only because Emperor Guangxi pretended to be sick that Su Xiang didn't come.

But if he didn't come today, he will come tomorrow. Sooner or later, he will enter the court.

Song Wei saw that the emperor was worried that after Prime Minister Su entered the court, he would continue to form a party to control the court for personal gain, but he didn't ask.

A courtier who speculates on the king's heart without authorization will never end well.

Emperor Guangxi was silent for a while, and asked him, "If I don't intend to let Prime Minister Su take power again, but I don't want to directly offend him, Song Aiqing thinks, what should I do?"

Song Wei suggested: "Your Majesty might as well ascend openly and descend secretly."

"Oh?" This answer aroused Emperor Guangxi's interest, "Be more specific."

"The Su family was implicated in the coal mine case last year. Now is a good opportunity to take the blame and make meritorious service. The emperor can throw a case to Prime Minister Su. If he fails, the emperor will have a reason to disperse his power to the cabinet. If he succeeds, As Prime Minister Su's uncle, conferring a nominal title is more than enough, and it can still take away the power in his hands."

Emperor Guangxi squinted his eyes, "Do you think the cabinet can replace the Secretary of State?"

"Yes." Song Wei nodded, "The responsibility of the Ministry of Education is mainly to help the emperor make important decisions and promulgate government orders, and these ministers think that the cabinet can do it, but the prime minister is alone in power, and the cabinet secretary People, everyone divides up a part, and the position of prime minister is useless."

Apparently, Song Wei's suggestion pleased the emperor, and Emperor Guangxi's Long Yan showed off, "Well said!"

The three-word evaluation meant that the emperor approved of his statement.

It's just that approval is approval, and whether it can be implemented is not up to the emperor alone, and several important ministers have to be called to discuss it.

……

Emperor Guangxi pretended to be sick for three days in a row. During these three days, he secretly summoned several trusted veterans and asked them about their views on the replacement of Zhongshu Province by the cabinet.

Finally came to a workable result.

Those who came were all ministers of the humerus, and they had long been dissatisfied with their relatives who were in charge of the court, but the emperor's heirs were weak, and if the East Palace was left without a master, the Su family would never give up. Well, with the Su family's intertwined relationship in the court, it is not difficult to make a comeback.

In the final analysis, the reason why the Su family can be so rampant is nothing more than two reasons: there is a prime minister in the previous dynasty, and there is a queen in the harem.

If you can't move the queen, it would be good if you move Su Xiang.

……

Considering that there are no important cases recently, Song Wei thought about it and mentioned the gang of bandits in Heifeng Mountain in Ningzhou.

He wanted to avenge his brother and sister-in-law, so he took the initiative to invite Ying, saying that once Su Tong agreed to go, he would follow as an assisting minister.

……

The next day, Emperor Guangxi found an opportunity to summon Prime Minister Su alone.

In the imperial study room, Emperor Guangxi buried his head in reviewing the memorials. After nearly a year, Su Xiang, who had only seen the emperor, knelt down and gave a big gift to Emperor Guangxi. The old minister spoiled his nephew too much on weekdays, so that he caused a catastrophe. At a young age, dozens of lives were stained in his hands. The old minister was incapable of discipline. Now the emperor has to use the old minister on the Internet. The veteran must devote himself to sharing the emperor's worries .”

As he spoke, he knocked his head three more times.

The attitude is very correct, the expression is very sincere, the tone is very solemn, and the style... well, the style is very Suxiang.

It sounded like he was pleading guilty, but in fact every sentence was insinuating against Lu Yanqing.

Emperor Guangxi hehe, "After a year's absence, Su Aiqing's kowtowing temperament really hasn't changed at all."

Su Xiang: "...the emperor is the emperor, and the old minister is the minister. When the minister sees the emperor, he kowtows and salutes. This is the rule set by the ancestors."

"The ancestors still have a rule called 'the ministers must not surpass the emperor', I wonder if Su Xiang remembers it?"

Su Xiang: "...Of course the veteran will remember."

Emperor Guangxi: "Then you should kneel for a while longer!"

Su Xiang: "..."

Seeing that the old guy was choking heavily, Emperor Guangxi felt secretly refreshed, the tea soup that he used to think had no taste seemed to have a lot of fragrance.

The emperor didn't say he was dead, so Prime Minister Su didn't dare to get up, and the imperial study fell into silence. After about a cup of tea, Emperor Guangxi's slightly sad voice came from above, "I have received news that Ningzhou Bandits and bandits are rampant in Heifeng Mountain, Pingjiang County, to the point where they dare to openly plunder women from good families, and the local government can't suppress them at all, so what can Su Aiqing do?"

Su Xiang frowned slightly, "Ningzhou again?"

The last coal mine case happened in Ningzhou, which happened to be Pingjiang County. This time, the bandit was in that place again?
Ningzhou is really a rotten egg with seams. Those who come out of that place are either flies or maggots. First there is the annoying Song Wei, and then there are bandits who are annoying to everyone. None of them are good birds!
Emperor Guangxi watched Su Xiang's reaction carefully.

Su Xiang pondered for a long time, and finally said, "The old minister is willing to personally lead the troops to suppress the bandits, so as to share the emperor's worries."

Emperor Guangxi disagreed, "Su Aiqing is a civil servant and the head of all officials, how can she personally lead troops to suppress bandits?"

"The old minister is guilty, and he is willing to make meritorious deeds."

Emperor Guangxi was relieved, "Since Su Aiqing insists on going, then I can't help you, so let's do it, I will arrange Song Hanlin to assist you."

The corner of Su Xiang's mouth twitched, "Your Majesty, Song Wei is an imperial official, and he has nothing to do with suppressing bandits."

"You can't say that." Emperor Guangxi said: "Su Xiang and a civil servant can personally lead troops to suppress the bandits and perform meritorious service. It is only natural for Song Hanlin to use the bandits to avenge his brother who died tragically at the hands of the bandits many years ago."

Now, Su Xiang was completely speechless.

-

The imperial decree caused heated discussions in the court.

The prime minister personally led the troops to suppress the bandits, so it can be understood that he wanted to take the blame and make meritorious service.

Song Wei's participation in suppressing the bandits can also be understood as the bandits came from Ningzhou. He is familiar with the terrain and can provide clues.

However, Su Xiang and Song Wei went to suppress the bandits together?
Based on how much Su cares about Song Wei, are you sure he won't treat Song Wei as a bandit and suppress him first?
In fact, Emperor Guangxi had such concerns before making the decree, but Song Wei insisted on going, and he didn't mind.

-

Song House.

Knowing that Song Wei was going to assist Su Xiang to go to Ningzhou to suppress the bandits, Wen Wan was taken aback, and looked at the man with wide eyes, "Sir, did I hear correctly?"

Who is Su Xiang?

Thinking about it during the day, thinking about it at night, thinking about it day and night, wishing that Song Wei would peel Song Wei's skin and cramps and drink human blood. At this time, shouldn't we avoid it?Xianggong even took the initiative to invite Ying. Is this planning to send sheep to the tiger's mouth?
Seeing Wen Wan's worried face, Song Wei said with firm eyes: "13 years ago, my brother and sister-in-law died at the hands of these robbers. Now that I have the opportunity to kill my enemies, I have to go."

Wen Wan opened her mouth, swallowed all the rest of her consolation, thought for a while, and sighed: "Since you insist, then I'll ask for leave tomorrow."

Knowing that it was not safe to stay with Su Xiang, Song Wei did not stop Wen Wan.

The Mr. Hongwenguan is used to Wen Wan's family being busy every day or two, so for the sake of her being diligent and studious, it's just right.

This is the second time for Wen Wan to go out with her husband to handle a case. Her mother-in-law can understand her, so she doesn't ask any more questions. The father-in-law asked a few words, and Wen Wan simply said in front of her father-in-law, Yuan Bao and Song Jiao that she wanted to take this opportunity to go back to her hometown.

The father-in-law is not a troublesome person. Hearing what she said, he just told the young couple to be careful when going out, especially Song Wei.

Every time he goes out, he can make the family fearful.

Song Wei glanced at Wen Wan with a smile, reassuring Father Song that he would return safely.
