Happiness Consist in Contentment

Liu Fang shook his head with a smile and said, "You are wrong. I came here today to tell you: If you don't want to be punished by the nine clans, in the future, you will be your first assistant honestly, and stop stealing chickens and dogs. "

The first assistant was furious: "Princess! Are you trying to be my enemy?"

Liu Fang put away her smile, looked at him fixedly, and said lightly: "Tuoba Gangyou brought someone to assassinate me last night, but he was almost killed by me."

Shoufu's pupils shrank, and then he said with a cold face: "What does the eldest princess mean by telling me this?"

Liu Fang stood up lightly and walked slowly in front of him, with a tall and slender figure half a head taller than Shoufu.

She looked down at the chief assistant and said, "You know what I mean. Are you still satisfied with trading with the barbarians?"

The first assistant suddenly turned pale in shock, "Princess, you are slandering!"

Liu Fang sneered, "Really? It's okay, since you don't recognize it, I'll leave everyone to the emperor. By the way, let me tell you again, I won't hide this for you.

Selling the Western Xinjiang Military News and deducting frontier armaments, hehe, in order to get benefits from the barbarians, so as to make oneself rich and noble, and then rise to the top of the official career.

You say, will the common people like this kind of storytelling? Envoys of other countries know, will they like it? "

The first assistant listened to Liu Fang's words, and the more he listened, the paler his face became. At the end, he almost fainted.

Liu Fang smiled coldly and said, "Don't think that if you push a bunch of people out to take the blame, I will let you go. Xijiang sacrificed 100,000 soldiers, this blood debt will not just be forgotten. Humph!"

After that, Liu Fang and Chen Fang opened the door and prepared to leave.

The first assistant turned around in a hurry, stepped forward quickly, and stopped them, "No! The eldest princess, Your Highness, please, no! Xiaguan, Xiaguan is really convicted, please forgive Xiaguan."

After that, he knelt down and gave Liu Fang a big gift: "My minister, I really knew I was wrong."

Liu Fang raised her eyebrows, looked down at him and said, "Do you still have any objection to what I just said?"

The first assistant bowed his head and said, "Yes, I will follow His Highness's teaching and will definitely correct it."

Liu Fang looked at him coldly, and left the Shoufu Mansion with Chen Fang after a while. Only the first assistant was left pale and slumped to the ground.

On the way, Chen Fang said, "Girl, do you believe what Shoufu said so easily?"

Liu Fang sneered, "Of course not. An old fox like him will certainly not be so honest and obedient, but it doesn't matter, I will let Hongzang wait.

Send the person caught last night to him, and he will understand that if I can catch him once, I can catch him a second time. As long as he dares to do it, I dare to catch him. "

Chen Fang understood immediately, but he still had some doubts and said, "Miss, why do you have to be so troublesome? Wouldn't it be easier to send someone directly to the emperor?"

It would be easier to change someone to be the first assistant.

Liu Fang shook his head and said, "No. If I send it to the emperor, I will be passive.

Now, I know all the officials up and down the court. If they change someone, their behavior will definitely change, and the pattern of the court will also change accordingly.

However, what we in Liucheng and the entire Western Xinjiang need most now is not honest officials, but time, time to recuperate.

If the imperial court is too turbulent, it may not be a good thing for us. "

The replacement of the cabinet chief and assistant is a major event that affects the whole body. It is not as simple as Chen Fang thought.

Chen Fang scratched his head and said, "My subordinates still don't understand, but since the girl said this is the case, that's it. The subordinates just follow orders."

Liu Fang smiled, Chen Fang had too little knowledge, so it was normal to take it for granted.

Politics has always been complicated and changeable, and what Liu Fang wants now is actually the initiative.

As for this person being a clean and corrupt official, it makes no difference to her. All she needs is that they be honest and don't try to fool her as before.

After returning to the Princess Mansion, Liu Fang gave Chen Fang some instructions. Chen Fang nodded in response, and went to Hongzang to ask him to quietly send the person arrested last night to the Shoufu Mansion, and then go to handle Liu. Fang explained things.

Cheng Huo came to look for her at this time, "Girl, everyone has already checked it out."

He handed over a roster, Liu Fang opened it, looked at it, and then said to him: "Everyone who should be stared must be stared at, these people don't need to move, everything will be fine.

We don't have much time, and we need to arrange everything after that. "

"Yes, girl."

Zhong Yong came in at this time, handed a bamboo tube and said, "Girl, Luo Zheng has a letter."

In Liucheng's army, there were pigeons that were specially trained to pass messages. Later, after Liu Da joined the generals, he also trained a few eagles to pass messages. In this way, the military report was more timely and safer.

Liu Fang took the bamboo tube, opened it, took out the note and read it, with a smile on her face, and said, "Okay, what we want can be achieved tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. If it goes well, we can go back in five days."

Cheng Huo and Zhong Yong both looked happy,

"Really? Girl, that's great!"

"That's right, even though this capital is prosperous, it's boring to stay here. It's only been two days, and I've had enough."

Zhong Yong smiled and took Cheng Huo's shoulder and said, "Is it because the girl gave you too heavy a task? Yesterday was busy all day, and today is also a busy day. You haven't even gone out of the house, so it's normal for you to be bored. ."

Cheng Huo pushed his hand away and said, "It's not. There are so many bad things as soon as you enter the capital, and you won't be stable for a quarter of an hour. How can you not get bored?"

Zhong Yong folded his arms around his chest, nodded and said, "Also, the intrigue in Kyoto is too much, it's really boring."

Liu Fang smiled and said: "This is the case now, but it may not be in the future. Let's not worry, take your time."

"Yes, girl."

...

In the morning of the next day, the governor of Kyoto and the Minister of Punishment published the memorial together. The former is about the case in the northern city outside the capital, and the latter is about the night of the palace banquet that Liu Fang was assassinated on his way back to his residence.

Both cases involved Liu Fang. In the case of the outer city Beicheng, all three of the deceased died after eating the meal that Liu Fang asked Hongzang to send. The latter was Liu Fang who was the victim and was assassinated along the way.

No matter which one it was, Emperor Yanqing did not want to make a big fuss, for fear of causing criticism from the people.

It's just that the assassination can still be pressed, but the case of the outer city Beicheng has already been rumored all over the city.

There are rumors that Liu Fang has a vicious mind and deliberately sends poisonous meals to the refugees in order to use these people to test the poison.

However, the Minister of Punishment listened for a long time, but suddenly discovered that the three who died were actually executed prisoners, and it was said that they were related to the Western Xinjiang military case.

Then why did they temporarily stay in the refugee place in the outer city Beicheng? And was their poisoning caused by Liu Fang?

Liu Fang was also in the courtroom—after all, besides Princess Rongning of Zhenguo, she was also a female marquis, and Liucheng was a general, and she also needed to go to court.

She directly said that these three people were brought up by her people from the punishment department to prepare for interrogation.

Unexpectedly, they ran away halfway, and then died of poisoning.

She also gave the poison to the people under her door to prevent them from escaping, but I didn't expect them to escape in the end...

There is no need to say more about what happened after that, everyone has their own thoughts.

It's just that after Liu Fang's rhetoric was spread out, the people who had sympathized with the three dead people turned their backs in an instant, saying that these three people deserved it.

After all, the armament case in the Western Xinjiang is of great importance.

, One bad, that is the rhythm of the country's collapse.

Compared with Liu Fang, the hero who saved the crisis in Western Xinjiang, all the people involved in the armament case in Western Xinjiang are the people that the common people hate the most.

They would think that without these worms, Xijiang would not be dying so many people year after year.

Therefore, some people would have wondered whether Liu Fang was really too vicious, and even dared to poison the capital at will and kill the people.

Now, there is no more to say, and it makes the people more and more respect her, and at the same time, there is some guilt and distress in my heart: I had doubted the queen and the eldest princess before, which is really inappropriate.

In this regard, Liu Fang has long expected, ordinary people are like this, simple and lovely, but sometimes terrible.

...

The embassy is the place where the embassies of various countries in Kyoto live, just beside the yamen of Honglu Temple in the inner city.

It covers a large area and is divided into many courtyards. The scenery has its own characteristics. It is not so unfamiliar for foreign embassies to come here and find one or two landscapes of their own country.

This is also a friendly welcome gift from Dayang to foreign embassies.

Now, the five countries' embassies also live here.

In the courtyard where the barbarian mission lived.

Tuoba Gangyou was so angry that he threw all the things on the table to the ground, in a mess. The other members of the mission looked at each other, all were downcast and had no fighting spirit.

Tuoba Gangyou cursed loudly and kept scolding Liu Fang until he stopped panting for a while.

The deputy envoy stepped forward and said: "Fourth Prince, the Minister of Punishment has just come to deliver the news, and found out that it was our people who assassinated the eldest Princess Rongning of Zhenguo the night before, and now the officials of Honglu Temple have been asking us to explain.

Moreover, it is said that the meaning of the eldest princess, if our sincerity is not enough, she will immediately return to the western border and directly destroy our capital with the army.

The Great Khan also sent a message saying that there are now 500,000 troops in the Western Xinjiang, which have crossed the border and are ready to fight against us at any time.

But now, we are no longer able to fight, if we really fight, then we have to be slaves to the country! "

Tuoba Gangyou blushed and his eyes flickered. He said fiercely, "Did no one tell her that our people captured her sister?"

Another deputy said: "I have already said it. However, the eldest princess said that her sister is already dead, and the person we arrested can never be her sister, but a traitor. We use this person to threaten, really is stupid.

Also, she said..."

Tuoba Gangyou stared at him,

Said: "What else do you say?"

"The eldest princess also said: Even if it is her own sister, such an act is no different from treason. She will only kill her with her own hands, and will never compromise with us because of her!"

Tuoba Gangyou closed his eyes and asked gently, "Why didn't you catch her nephew? Didn't she say her nephew was in Chen Fang's house?"

"It was at Chen Fang's house, but when our people went, the building was empty, and they were caught by Sergeant Liucheng who had been waiting for a long time..."

Tuoba Gangyou opened his eyes, "How could she be caught? How could it be possible? How did Liu Fang know about it? Ah?"

The others looked at each other in dismay, bowing their heads and saying nothing: How did they know! They feel weird too!

But, the fact is that, what can they do?

Tuoba Gangyou sat weakly on the couch, closed his eyes and said, "This person is really scary! He has a deep plan to block all our back roads, not to mention all our back hands. It's all counted...

Why did Dae Yeon show such a terrible person! "
