Great Blue Night Watchman

Chapter 152 The fate of the Minister of War

Could this be the case?

Not only is it possible, it can even be said to be the only reason!

If Sister Chen and Lu Yi really died in Xishan, Lin Su would naturally investigate.

How easy is it to get to the bottom of such an unsolved case? Especially when the officialdom is completely in the hands of his opponents, it is impossible to find out clearly. No matter whether the investigation is complete or not, Lin Su has no intention of conducting scientific research, and his scientific examination will be wrong.

Even if Lin Su has great supernatural powers and can really find out and take revenge on the Zhang family, Zhang Wenyuan will be happy to see it. From his position, he is afraid that Lin Su will not move. As long as Lin Su moves, no matter what he does, it will be wrong. Zhang Wenyuan can even Calling a deer a horse, placing the crime of murder on Lin Su himself - this is the terrible thing about the power of speech and law enforcement being all in his hands.

"Now that the Zhang family has taken action, it is necessary to fight back, and it must also cause him pain..." Lin Su said slowly: "Tell me, what is the real pain point of old thief Zhang?"

Zhang Wenyuan, Minister of the Ministry of War, has done his best.

His eldest son Zhang Chun, the Minister of Rites, is already a third-rank official.

The second son, Zhang Yi, is a Taoist cultivator in the Immortal Sect and is currently a fifth-level Taoist flower, at the same level as Zhang Yiyu.

The third son, Zhang Liang, is one of the top three giants in Da Cang, with countless properties under his family. It is precisely because of this steady stream of wealth that Zhang Wenyuan has enough financial and material resources to win over a large number of courtiers and make his official career smooth.

Each of the three people above is a big mountain above the Lin family. But what the Zhang family values ​​most is not these three people, but the fourth son of the Zhang family.

Zhang Hong, the fourth son of the Zhang family, is a genius in literature and art. He was already a member of the Jingfu Huiyuan three years ago. As mentioned before, the top ten in the Jingfu Huiyuan are all powerful enough to compete with other states' Huiyuan. He could definitely pass the palace examination, but he did not take part in that palace examination. Instead, he withheld it for three years and pointed his sword at the "Holy Jinshi" of this palace examination.

Why?

It is similar to Li Yezhou back then.

Li Yezhou shoulders the mission of the family, and must unite the three elements to bring the family on the right path.

What about him? He is looking for a wife.

His father-in-law's family gave him a condition. If he wanted to become his son-in-law, he must be a Holy Jinshi in the palace examination - eighty-one years before the palace examination, the temple directly selects the scholar, which is the most valuable Holy Jinshi!

In that class three years ago, there were many talents, but Zhang Hongshi was not sure about winning the "Holy Jinshi", so he studied hard for three years and continued to accumulate. This time, his goal is to win the "Holy Jinshi"!

Someone asked, the son of a dignified minister of the Ministry of War, the capital will test the dimension, and finding anyone to be a daughter-in-law is not considered high-end. Who is such a famous family? Do you dare to mention such unreasonable conditions? Could it be the royal princess?

No, not a royal princess, but even better than a royal princess!

That's the Holy Family!

The marriage that his father helped him contact was the Holy Family.

What is the Holy Family? The origin of the saint!

For example, the Confucian scholar Kong Sheng, his direct descendants are the Holy Family, and the military strategist Sun Sheng, his direct descendants are the same.

The status of the Holy Family is transcendent. If you talk about one thing, everyone will understand the extent of their transcendence.

Children of the Holy Family do not need to take scientific examinations!

Thousands of people in the world cross the single-plank bridge, and some of them have turned white and are still working hard to pass the exam. But the children of the Holy Family will be given Wengen as soon as they are born, and they will be given to the literary world after they grow up. Those who are slightly better will be given Wenshan, and the top ones will be given. Approval, directly give Wen Xin.

Are you speechless?

Not fair, right?

But what can be done? The people of the Holy Family have said that the power of literature itself is the power of the saints. It is good to give part of it to the people of the world through the rules of scientific examination. Do you still want to be fair with the people of the Holy Family?

This is true, who can take care of one's own property if it is given to one's own family?

The political power is respected by the royal family, and the literary status is respected by the Holy Family!

Under normal circumstances, girls from the Holy Family will never marry outside. Anyway, after thousands of years, the Holy Family has a population base in the millions. It has almost become a country in its self-circulation. Marriage is allowed within the same Holy Family. , the Nine Holy Families can marry each other without affecting their survival and reproduction at all.

But there are exceptions. There is a rigid condition for a direct lineage girl from the Holy Family to marry outside, that is, she must marry a Holy Scholar in the Palace Examination.

This is a saying that has been circulating in the secular world for a long time. Saints do not marry outsiders. If they want to marry, they should marry saints.

Zhang Wenyuan has good intentions in paving the way for his children. Some are officials, some are practicing, and some are making money. It can be said that he can handle all the enviable things in the world, but there is one thing that he cannot handle, that is His ancestors were not particularly impressive, which resulted in the Zhang family not being very well-established. On many noble occasions, he felt a little unsure, so he worked hard to marry into the Holy Family. Originally, he only tried to mention it, but unexpectedly, the Holy Family The family really agreed and gave a hard condition, saying that as long as the fourth son of the Zhang family can become a holy scholar, they can send their legitimate daughter to marry.

This engagement made the Zhang family ecstatic, their legitimate daughter! How unimaginable is this?

The Zhang family also reached a consensus immediately that Zhang Hongzhi’s scientific examination was overwhelming! We must seize this opportunity and firmly embrace the Holy Family. As long as we embrace it, the Zhang family will be a family that has been around for thousands of years. Even if the world is overturned, no one in the Zhang family dares to touch it - in this world, it is ordinary for a country to stand up and be destroyed. However, even if the country is destroyed, the Holy Family cannot be touched. This is the rule of the temple.

After listening to Sister Chen's introduction, Lin Su slowly narrowed his eyes: "In this way, Zhang Hong is the lifeblood of the Zhang family. If his marriage is ruined, it should be a real pain for him!"

"If the marriage with the Holy Family is ruined, the old thief Zhang Wenyuan will definitely vomit blood, which will be a heavier blow than any other. But Young Master... you must be cautious. After all, the Holy Family is involved. It doesn't matter who you anger at the moment. You just can't anger the Holy Family. Home."

The girl's exclamation came from outside: "Master!"

With a bang, several girls knelt down at the same time, and there was a sound of knees hitting the ground.

At the small table, Lin Su and the other girls were shocked at the same time. The head of the family came over in person?

Get up quickly.

As soon as they stood up straight, an old man walked in from the Moon Gate of Yixian Yuan. It was Qu Wendong, the head of the Qu family.

The three girls are blessed at the same time.

Lin Su also took two steps forward and bowed: "The old man has come in person. I apologize for not being able to greet you from a distance."

Whether it was a courtesy from a guest or a junior, Lin Su had to show respect to the old man.

Qu Wendong raised his hand and put it on his shoulder: "Third Young Master, there is no need to be polite."

Lin Su stood up straight: "Old man, please!"

The two of them sat in the pavilion, and Lu Yi personally served them fragrant tea, then bowed and left.

The spring breeze blew through the small courtyard, and there were only two people left in the pavilion.

"The matter of killing the envoy to welcome the bride was just discussed at Wuying Palace and has been successfully resolved."

The first thing Qu Wendong said when he sat down was good news.

Lin Su handed over a cup of fragrant tea: "Let the old man worry about it."

Qu Wendong took the tea and gently rotated the cup in his palm: "When you encountered this situation today, you killed someone in anger, was it really just because you couldn't help it?"

Lin Su smiled softly: "The Lin family has gone from the peak to the trough, and then from the trough to the peak again. How many twists and turns have there been in the process, and have they been used to how much the world has been cold and desolate? How could I really not be able to bear it?"

Qu Wendong's eyes slowly moved over: "So killing the envoy was just a move, right?"

"of course!"

"What's the purpose?"

"What does the old man think...the purpose is?"

Qu Wendong took a sip of tea and said slowly: "You want to see, Minister of the DPRK, who are the people who want to kill you."

Lin Su smiled: "So, can the old man see clearly?"

I saw some things clearly, but some things I didn’t...

What's the meaning?

Qu Wendong saw clearly that Zhang Wenyuan, Zhao Xun, Li Lizhi, Zhou Yunzhi, Guo Xiangtan... these people were all the ones who jumped out to question Lin Su. The first two were expected, and the following few were New ones popping up.

He also saw one person clearly, Song Du! There is no need to win over this relative of the Lin family now, because this person not only failed to protect Lin Su, but also maliciously set the pace with ulterior motives. He analyzed Lin Su's prediction of malicious rebellion and basically painted a picture of Lin Su's career. It came to an end, and its insidious deeds made outsiders willing to take advantage of him.

Lin Su's face slowly turned gloomy. No matter when he was maliciously targeted by his relatives, it was always more sad.

Qu Wendong said: "There are three people I can't see clearly. First, I can't see Zhang Juzheng clearly. He seemed neutral and even criticized you. However, it was because of his words that he ended his hatred of you." Controversy, I'll clear your name. Secondly, I can't see clearly Lu Tiancong and Duan Shangao, they never spoke from the beginning to the end."

Lin Su nodded: "There is one more thing, I wonder if you can see it clearly."

Qu Wendong was slightly surprised: "Tell me about it?"

"Today's matter had nothing to do with you. You are no longer a court official. Why would His Majesty let you go?"

Qu Wendong said: "Maybe he wanted to... create an opportunity for me to make a mistake and find an excuse to take me down."

Lin Su shook his head gently: "You have worked with his emperor and ministers for many years. He doesn't know what kind of person you are? How could he imagine that you would make a mistake on such an occasion?"

Qu Wendong is the most cautious person and has never been a person who makes gaffes. This is especially true on an occasion like today. Qu Wendong will never make a gaffe.

Qu Wendong frowned: "What is your judgment?"

"His Majesty does not intend to use the royal power to deal with you. He is creating an opposition for you. From the other side, the action against the Qu family is about to begin."

His Majesty personally promised the world that he would not settle old scores. This was the basis of his governance. He did not dare to break his promise, so he planned to cultivate enemies for Qu Wendong. How to cultivate? Just above the Golden Palace, two camps naturally formed.

Of course he knew that Qu Wendong would defend Lin Su but not Lin Su. Once Lin Su was executed by the Nine Clan and even the Qu family was brought in, how could Qu Wendong not defend him?

As soon as he defends himself, he will inevitably confront Zhang, Zhao and others, and the opposition will be determined.

This is His Majesty's plan to use the power of ministers to suppress the Qu family.

Qu Wendong naturally understood this, but Lin Su also understood it, which surprised him. The literary genius in front of him was only known to the world for his literary skills and whimsical ideas. No one knew about it. His views on things are also so sharp.

"Regarding Qu Jia's actions, what would you analyze...?" This is already a peer-to-peer attitude.

Lin Sudao: "The Qu family has withdrawn from officialdom, and its main industry is in shopping malls. If my analysis is correct, they have two moves to make. One is to encircle and suppress your business, and the other is to divide your children. "

Qu Wendong held the tea cup and was speechless for a long time.

Although the Qu family has withdrawn from officialdom, its influence still exists. Over the years, he has also made great progress in the layout of shopping malls. It is a business kingdom with hundreds of thousands of employees. It is closely connected with all walks of life and people of all colors, and it is also a force. A force that should not be underestimated. Under Qu Wendong's caution, these businesses are all operated legally. Under such circumstances, it is not easy to win over the Qu family easily, but if his business foundation is destroyed, it will Can find opportunities to break the situation. In addition, the second thing Lin Su said made him even more frightened. He actually had a premonition that his children had been divided. Although his eldest son Qu Jiahui was a business figure, he was very close to high-ranking officials. Among the third generation of the Qu family, Qu Jin and Qu Wu are even closer to the celebrities in the capital. The head of the Qu family cannot stop these things, but of course he cannot agree with them either.

If a family's wealth is gone and the descendants rebel, what does it mean? It means no wealth at the top and no roots at the bottom...

"Don't worry, old man. Since you have chosen to marry the Lin family, your business is my business. No one in the shopping mall dares to insist on winning. Let's see how they make their move. For future generations, there are still brothers Qu Zhe and Qu Zhe. Sister Xiu, that’s enough!… Let’s not mention these things for now, I want to know another thing.”

you say!

Lin Sudao: "I want to know more detailed information...Jiangdong's old case."

The old case of Jiangdong...the old case of Jiangdong...

Qu Wendong let out a long sigh, this is really a taboo case. It has been so long, but now that I think about it, it still feels like a big dream...

Five years ago, when the late emperor was still on the throne, the prince rebelled, and the ministers agreed, eventually leading to a great schism in the imperial court...

He told Jiangdong's old case in detail, and the details were naturally far more detailed than what Lin Su had learned through secret investigation. After the story was finished, Lin Su's eyes flickered and he was speechless for a long time.

"You think there's something wrong with this case?"

"There are too many questions, or rather, it's just baffling."

Qu Wendong's eyes lit up: "Tell me about it..."

Lin Su picked up the teapot and refilled a cup of tea, then slowly spoke...

First of all, there is no reason to support the prince's rebellion. What everyone agrees is that the emperor is in good health. The prince has been waiting for too many years and cannot wait any longer. But what happened later is incredible. As soon as the prince rebelled, the emperor died immediately. What kind of thing is this? healthy? When the emperor is not in good health, the prince can ascend to the throne in a short while, so why should he risk the disapproval of the world to rebel? Moreover, he had not made preparations at all and was destroyed in just over ten days.

Secondly, the King of Huainan is very controversial. Everyone says that he has no thoughts about his family and country. When the enemy is pressing on the territory, he openly raises his troops to rebel and leads the country into a crisis. But what I see is a man who understands the righteousness deeply. Your Majesty, some of you great scholars went over and spoke to him, and he took the initiative to withdraw his troops. Doesn’t he know that as soon as he puts down his weapons, he will immediately become a fish in the hands of others? Isn't it because he is willing to surrender without mercy for the sake of the survival of Da Cang Kingdom?

In the end, Ohsumi... sent troops while the sky was tearing apart, and then withdrew after reaping some benefits. But if you think about it carefully, is Ohsumi the only one who reaps the benefits? Whose benefits are greater?

Qu Wendong suddenly raised his head: "Stop it! Don't say it anymore! From now on, don't say these words to anyone!"

"All right!"

"Farewell!" Qu Wendong stood up and left.
