Unparalleled Concubine - v2 Chapter 986

   Chapter 986 Thirty-fourth filial son

The level of the Six Books is already one of the great nine ministers. Although it belongs to the Shangshutai, no matter its status or authority, it is in the first echelon of the imperial court. Even the prime minister of the Shangshutai wants to do something Discuss with the Six Books.

   For ordinary civil servants, to achieve this level is considered to be a complete merit. If you want to go to the next level, you can do it not only by your connections and abilities, but also by chance and luck.

   But for the Ye family, who was at the top of the general gate of the Jin Dynasty, the position of a minister of war was much lighter than that of the Beijun in the north of the base town.

  As soon as the Son of Heaven said these words, both Ye Lin and Ye Mao looked a little unsightly. Chen Guogong Ye Mao kept his mouth shut, and Ye Lin also lowered his head and did not speak.

The emperor looked at the two Ye family members and said slowly, “The position of the general of the Zhenbei Army was suggested by the imperial court. If the two Ye Qings are not satisfied, there is nothing I can do for a while, so that’s it. , wait for the next great meeting, how about I let them discuss this matter again?”

The emperor didn’t nod his head, and it was the result of how many times he discussed it. Even Ye Mao could immediately understand such an obvious thing. After being silent for a while, the third-generation Chen Guogong took two steps back and bowed to the emperor: “Your Majesty. Since this is said, the minister naturally has no objection, but the minister has something to say.”

Ye Mao gritted his teeth and said, “As Your Majesty said, the Zhenbei Army is the Imperial Court’s Zhenbei Army, not my Ye family’s Zhenbei Army. If Jimen Pass fails, the Zhenbei Army will be wiped out, and the one with the greatest loss will be the Zhenbei Army. It’s also the imperial court, not the Ye family…”

   After saying this, Ye Mao knelt down and kowtowed, his voice trembling a little because of anger.

   “I retire…”

   Ye Lin glanced at his nephew, shook his head, and bowed to the emperor: “I also retire.”

   Emperor Yuan Zhao’s face was calm, he waved his hand lightly: “Xiao Zheng, send two Ye Qings on my behalf.”

The **** Xiao Zheng immediately took small steps and sent the two uncles and nephews to the gate of Weiyang Palace. After sending these two people away, he returned to Weiyang Palace. At this time, the emperor had already sat back on his soft couch. , was looking at the military newspapers sent from the north in the past few days, and noticed that after Xiao Zheng came back, the emperor did not look up, and asked lightly: “Is there any situation in the southwest recently?”

   Xiao Zheng lowered his head and said, “Go back to Your Majesty, the plum blossom guard is staring at the southwest side. The plum blossom guard was handed over to Xiao Huai two years ago. He will sort out the news every day and send it to Your Majesty’s desk…”

   “I haven’t seen any news from Southwest these two days.”

  The emperor frowned and said, “You call Xiao Huai, I have something to ask him.”

  Xiao Zheng nodded and immediately sent someone to summon Xiao Huai. Not long after, Xiao Huai, who was dressed in purple, knelt in front of the emperor and bowed respectfully: “Slave Xiao Huai, see Your Majesty!”

   “Get up and talk.”

  The emperor put down the document in his hand and frowned: “Why haven’t I seen news from Southwest for the past two days?”

   “Go back to Your Majesty, there is something wrong on the southwest side.”

After a pause, the young supervisor of the inner chamber continued: “Meihuawei has been monitoring Jincheng. After the New Year’s Eve this year, Mrs. Li and his family moved to Jincheng, but some time ago, the people of Meihuawei stopped working again. I haven’t seen any trace of Mrs. Li, as if Mrs. Li disappeared out of thin air.”

   Having said this, Xiao Huai paused and continued: “In addition to this, the Southwest Army in the southwest is also frequently mobilized, and there are frequent changes, which may be wrong.”

  Xiao Huai said: “Because the slaves have been following up on this for the past two days, and wanted to find out what happened in the southwest, they didn’t have time to write a document and send it.”

   “Slave… Damn, please forgive me!”

   “Southwest Army…Moved frequently…”

   Emperor Yuanzhao muttered to himself, and then smiled coldly: “As soon as the fight broke out in the north, things started to change there. Master Li is Master Li, and he does things really neatly.”

  Thinking of this, he firmly decided not to let the Ye family leave the capital, and then looked at Xiao Huai coldly.

   “Have you tracked down the news of Master Li?”

   “Go back to Your Majesty… No.”

Xiao Huai knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice: “Last time in Ningling, Mei Huawei buried the secret line beside Mrs. Li, was discovered by Mrs. Li, and after a major purge, now there are no secret lines out of ten, it is difficult to accurately grasp the secret of Mrs. Li. tracked.”

   Having said this, Xiao Huai knelt down and kowtowed, gritted his teeth and said, “However, the servants have found some clues. Although I can’t be sure where Mrs. Li is now, Mrs. Li probably left Jincheng and headed northeast…”

  Jincheng is in the southwest, and there are only two places along the northeast direction, one is to the capital city, and the other is to…Northern Xinjiang.

  The Son of Heaven changed slightly.

   There has just been a change in the north, and there have been actions in the southwest. If Li Xin really wants to form an alliance with the Yuwen Department and go north in person, then…

  The Great Jin Dynasty is in jeopardy!

  Thinking of this, Emperor Yuan Zhao gave Xiao Huai a vicious look.

   “Go check it out for me!”

   “At all costs, we must find out where Li Xin is now. After discovering his whereabouts, directly arrest him and bring him to the capital. If there is resistance, kill him on the spot!”

  Xiao Huai knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice, “Slave… Let’s go!”

   After saying that, he left Weiyang Palace with his shit.

  Eldest **** Xiao Zheng frowned slightly. He bowed his head to the emperor and said, “Your Majesty, Xiao Huai is young and unreliable, so the old slave went to instruct him.”

  The Emperor waved his hand impatiently.

   Xiao Zheng bowed respectfully, exited the Weiyang Palace hall, and then stopped Xiao Huai who was walking on the steps.

  Xiao Huai stopped walking immediately after hearing Xiao Zheng’s voice, turned around and bent over and trotted all the way to the front of Xiao with a respectful face: “Godfather called me?”

   Xiao Zheng glanced at Xiao Huai and said slowly, “Let’s father and son, let’s talk?”

   Xiao Huai lowered his head: “My son should obey his orders.”

   After saying that, he bent down and walked behind Xiao Zheng. The “father and son” walked on the eighty-one steps in front of the Weiyang Palace, and their footsteps were surprisingly consistent.

   “What have you been doing these days?”

Xiao Zheng said in a calm tone, “Don’t tell me that you went to investigate the Marquis of Jing’an, and you don’t have time to write documents. I have taken Meihuawei for many years. There are special documents in Meihuawei. The information you need can be sent to Weiyang Palace, you don’t need to write it yourself.”

   Having said this, Xiao Zheng glanced at Xiao Huai with a smile.

   “You dare to deceive you in front of me, I just need to say a word, the head on your shoulder is about to move!”

  Xiao Huai wiped the sweat from his forehead, accompanied with a smile: “Godfather loves his son, naturally he will not let his son die.”

   “Then tell me.”

  Xiao’s face was calm.

   “What the **** did you do?”

   Xiao Huai trembled slightly, he lowered his head deeply, and his voice was inaudible.

   “Go back to godfather… son… murdered.”

   Xiao Zheng stopped, looked back at Xiao Huai, and frowned: “Who did you kill? Who told you to kill?”

   Xiao Huai was still bent over, he carefully looked left and right, and when he saw the surroundings, he lowered his head again.

   “My son went to Yongzhou and learned something.”

   Xiao Huai lowered his head and said, “Plum Blossom Guard was liquidated in Jincheng. It should be your godfather who leaked the news to Mrs. Li.”

   As soon as these words came out, Xiao Zheng’s complexion suddenly changed greatly, and his long and narrow eyes were full of fierce light, almost as if he wanted to eat people.

   Xiao Huai lowered his head and didn’t see his godfather’s expression. He continued: “After my son found out about this, he… thought about handling this for his godfather.”

   “After returning to Beijing from Yongzhou, my son has been busy with this.”

Xiao Huai lowered his head and said slowly, “Mei Huawei has a record about this matter. It took my son a few months to change it bit by bit. You should kill the teahouse where you went out to see Mrs. Li when you came out of the palace. The son of a man was also killed for you.”

  Xiao Huai raised his head, glanced at Xiao Zheng with a stunned face, and took a deep breath.

   “In the past few days, my son has tried to find a way to kill all the people who knew about this incident and who had seen the record of this incident.”

   “So, godfather can… sit back and relax.”

  Xiao was standing there, silent for a long time.

  Even he didn’t think that the adopted son, who he brought up with one hand, and who usually does things with a bit of guile, turned out to be… a filial son?
