Chapter 395: Love him, scold him
Chapter 395: If you love him, scold him
Chen Ao smiled at Cai Tao, smiling dullly. This is natural. If you smile treacherously, will Yuer still be willing to take the bait? So the smarter the more you are, the more you should understand the principle of being wise and foolish. If you are not stupid, others dare not believe you.
"There is only one way to get rid of Cai You!"
This sentence scared Cai Tao and got rid of Cai You? It’s not that he hadn’t thought that killing his brother was nothing to do when it came to their brother’s part.
He didn't dare to think about such a thing. Cai Tao shook his head sadly and said, "As the Grand Tutor, Cai You is deeply favored by His Majesty. He is also in charge of the country. Eliminate him... It's hard, it's as difficult as climbing to the sky!"
"There is nothing difficult in the world, I'm afraid of those who are interested." Chen Ao said lightly, and it seemed unfathomable: "Now there is a chance, I don't know if Lord Cai is willing to do it."
Looking at this young man with purple robe, Cai Tao couldn't tell who this person was. He was confined to the mansion and was strictly ordered by the emperor to think about his mistakes at home, so he was not allowed to go out. Because of the second master's career, the mansion refused to tell him about external news, for fear that he would be sad if he heard it. Therefore, Cai Tao in front of him was like a headless fly who had been completely closed for several years. He could not know the changes in the outside world, and could not guess Chen Ao's identity.
It was only just that Chen Ao went to see his father. Cai Tao had already predicted that Cai Jing's appearance was definitely not an ordinary person, let alone a young man wearing a purple robe of third grade or above, which shows that his official career has been so prosperous that it is terrifying.
Chen Ao just talked about reading memorials with the emperor. This one made Cai Tao feel that this person was not simple.
"Can Lord Shen meet the sect?" Cai Tao's voice trembled a little, and a thought flashed in his mind. If he eliminated his brother, not only could his life be preserved, but sooner or later, as long as his father was willing to be able to reconcile, even if he did not expect his position, he would not have to be trapped in this cave forever.
Such an opportunity is really rare.
Chen Ao smiled and said, "Come on, I'll tell you a secret." The two of them arrived at a long corridor and sat on the support pole. Chen Ao said seriously, "Tell me the truth to you. Your Majesty is going to make a southern tour."
"Southern Tour?"
"Go to Suzhou and Hangzhou and thoroughly investigate the Suzhou and Hangzhou Fabrication Bureau."
"I still don't understand."
Chen Ao coughed. It seemed that this guy was not politically wise enough. If it were Cai Jing, as long as he heard the news, he would probably have guessed who would be in trouble. He had to tempt him and said in a tempting manner: "Whose territory is the Suzhou-Hangzhou Construction Bureau?"
"You mean Tong Guan?"
It seems that he is not stupid, and he is teachable.
Chen Ao continued to smile and said, "This trick was created by Tong Guan, who took Qin's order to go to Jiangnan in person. It was covered with his spy. Although he has gone to the border town now, I really need to investigate it. Can Tong Guan get rid of it?"
Cai Tao suddenly realized: "I understand that my brother and Tong Guan have the closest relationship. They were in the border town, one of the Xuanfu envoys and the other of the Xuanfu envoys, and they had already been together. As long as they were caught, their brother would be doomed."
"That's the truth. Think about it, Your Majesty personally went to rectify the situation. No matter who came out, this person could still be favored by Your Majesty? Who can have a good ending for a minister who has always fallen out of favor?"
Cai Tao understood, and a trace of luster flashed in his eyes. This luster was humiliating, vicious, years of depression and uneasiness, and even more restlessness that was about to break out of the ground. He slapped his thighs and said, "Mr. Shen, I understand, but this matter needs to be discussed for a long time. What should I do if Lord Shen wants me to do?"
Chen Ao smiled and said, "Mr. Cai, you have to think clearly. What I want you to do is a huge thing. Once the matter is leaked, your wealth will be lost."
Cai Tao saw hope and his lips couldn't help but tremble. He hesitated for a moment, and nodded viciously: "You said."
Chen Ao said: "Simple, you can send a family member to find Tong Guan immediately."
Cai Tao was stunned: "What are you doing when looking for Tong Guan?"
Chen Ao smiled and said, "Forge a letter from your father to him. Don't worry, I will solve the letter, but I just need to borrow the seal and seal from Cai's mansion."
Cai Tao thought for a while: "My father is afraid he will not."
Chen Ao smiled and said, "If your father knows about this, I'm afraid your death will not be far away."
"What is Lord Shen saying? My father prefers it most..." Cai Tao was furious and glared at Chen Ao, with a trace of suspicion flashing in his eyes.
Halfway through Cai Tao's words, Chen Ao said sternly: "Don't you understand? Although Ling Zun and Brother Ling are against each other, they will really endanger their life and death. Ling Zun can do it? At that time, as long as he pinchs his fingers, the great opportunity will disappear. What's the use of Ling Zun's love for you anymore? As long as he can't make up for the determination to eliminate Brother Ling in one day, you will definitely die." He added a comment worthy of fun: "When you die is just a matter of time, you can weigh the pros and cons of yourself."
Cai Tao sighed weakly, and Chen Ao's words hit his heart, making him unable to refute, so he had to say, "I just don't know what Chen Siqing planned to write in the letter."
Chen Ao also frankly said, "I will tell Tong Guan in the name of Lingzun that His Majesty plans to send an imperial envoy to thoroughly investigate the situation and let him know the seriousness of the matter."
"Ah..." Cai Tao said in surprise: "Isn't this revealing the secret of heaven?"
Chen Ao shook his head: "This is called alerting the enemy. After reading the letter, Tong Guan first had to do to separate the relationship, but can he clear it? So he can only have another choice... resist stubbornly!"
Cai Tao smiled and said, "I understand. He would think that the only one he wants to resist stubbornly is just an imperial envoy, so he will definitely do whatever he wants. But if he finds that the person coming is the emperor, it will be too late to regret it. Seeing that His Majesty is so arrogant, he can no longer tolerate him. In this way, Tong Guan will definitely die."
Chen Aohe nodded: "Tong Guan is finished, so I can't tell you the relationship. Of course, I have something to do. If you follow my instructions, I will definitely let you do it."
Cai Tao glanced at Chen Ao vigilantly and said, "Why did Lord Shen help me?"
Chen Ao smiled and said, "Help you is helping me, Yang Jian is my father-in-law. Do you understand now?"
Cai Tao had no doubts at this time, who was Yang Jian? He was a favored official in the palace. As for Tong Guan, he was also very popular with His Majesty. One of these two people was inside and the other outside, but after all, they were colleagues. The so-called colleagues were enemies, and one mountain could not accommodate two tigers. God knew how fierce the open and secret battles were.
It's just a eunuch's son-in-law... It's better to inquire about this matter first.
When Chen Ao was sent out, Cai Tao looked at Chen Ao's back as he left, feeling mixed emotions for a while, and I wonder if the person in front of me was trustworthy.
Then he called the head of the mansion and asked with a stern face: "Mr. Shen has a father-in-law?"
The head of the officials hesitated for a while and said, "There are three, one is Duke Qi, one is the Imperial College Priest, and the other is Duke Yang Jian and Yang."
This answer was unexpected to Cai Tao, and waved his hand and said, "I understand, get out."
When he returned to the living room, he saw Cai Jing still thinking about his thoughts, looking melancholy and painful, but he didn't dare to ask. Cai Tao thought his father was thinking of the extremely vicious brother, and he was feeling sulky. In fact, he didn't know that there were even more puzzling things for Cai Jing to think about. What does this mean when Chen Ao came here and said these words? He was in his seventies, and his body was getting worse and worse. After thinking about it, he seemed to be much older. He coughed violently a few times, shook his head, but Henggu sighed and said, "You are so terrifying. It turns out that he came to me on purpose."
Cai Tao thought Cai Jing was talking about Cai You, so he said, "Why do you have to be angry with the unfilial son? Since he has lived with him, we have lived with us. Although I have the name of a brother now, the friendship between this brother has been over. If he comes to provoke me again, I must know that I am not easy to provoke."
Cai Tao rarely said a harsh word. When he said it at this moment, he felt a little relieved. He had been suppressed for so many years and was arrogant in the mansion. However, when it comes to the brother, he was timid. He knew that he had long hated him. Now he had the opportunity and had a sense of pleasure to vent.
Cai Jing shook his head, looked at Cai Tao with undeniable help, then closed his eyes and lay on his back, thinking deeply again.
After making an agreement with Cai Tao, Chen Ao's confidence finally came. He happily returned to the mansion and waited for the decree at home. After the Lantern Festival, on January 16th, on the morning of that day, the father-in-law who passed the decree finally came. The decree was very straightforward. Chen Ao was unruly and unruly, and he was disrespectful to the Tian family. He was unforgivable. However, he was quite talented, so he temporarily went to the Minister of the Honglu Temple and served as the supervisor of the Suzhou Labor Bureau. He took office immediately without delay.
Chen Ao received the order, feeling very sad. He was rushing the duck to put it on the shelves and forced someone to be a 25-year-old boy. After receiving the order, he said to his father-in-law: "Dude, can you tell Your Majesty whether the Minister of the Honglu Temple can be free for me first? This Minister of the Temple is very satisfying."
If someone else dared to make such a vulgar request, my father-in-law would have kicked him to the horizon, but Chen Ao was not someone else. This father-in-law showed him the face and would be treated by someone else tomorrow. He smiled and said, "It's easy to say, it's easy to say. In fact, when he came, His Majesty said that this Honglu Temple is not OK with Chen Jianjian. With Eunuch Yang in the palace, what are Chen Jianjian afraid of?"
Chen Ao immediately became overjoyed and asked someone to take a piece of money and put it in his father-in-law's hand. He smiled and said, "Grandpa Xie Jiyan, I'm keeping this money. I'm going to have time to have tea. By the way, I'll go back to the palace to say hello to Eunuch Yang for me."
When the father-in-law who had announced the imperial edict left, Chen Ao returned to the back garden, the three wives were naturally reluctant to leave. Zhou Ruo said, "I have just returned for a peaceful year, but I am leaving again. Good temple ministers are doing well, and what kind of supervision are going to do? This holy intention is really unpredictable."
Chen Ao stared at her: "Madam, you are so obscure. You just want to scold the officials? If you want to scold, it's no big deal."
Zhou Ruo did not dare to scold him, but said, "Look at you, a minister, and even encouraged others to scold his monarch. It's really rebellious."
"If you should scold me, you should scold me. I will scold you. I am also for the sake of the government. He must be moved by my good intentions. So I decided to scold him three times before going to bed every day." Chen Ao stood with his hands behind his back, facing a touch of morning sun, looking affectionately towards the imperial city. His face was tense, and he was like Qu Yuan who was still alive, and he only regretted that he was not the Miluo River under his feet.
