Chapter 709 Emperor Dajing: What to do!
The people of the capital city were talking about this matter endlessly.
However, most people don’t care much about this matter!
After all, they don't really approve of Dajing.
Their lives in Dajing were not good either, so...even if the emperor of Dajing was changed, what would it matter?
But when these things reach the ears of other people, it is a different story!
The first person to know about this was Jiang Chen!
"My Lord! The news of General Luo and the smuggling on the grassland has spread all over the capital!"
"We...what should we do!?"
After Zhang San learned about this, he hurried to find Jiang Chen.
Zhang San doesn't want to see General Luo get into trouble!
"Uncle San, don't panic."
Jiang Chen looked at Zhang San's panicked look, smiled and said, "I had anticipated this a long time ago. Your Majesty will not be in any trouble!"
"Even if Your Majesty wants to blame my foster father, it definitely won't be now!"
"Huh!? What do you mean?"
Zhang San was puzzled when he heard Jiang Chen's words.
"Third Uncle, think about it. The imperial court is sending troops to attack the Eighth Sage King. Do you dare to make the border unstable?"
"As long as your majesty is not a fool, he wouldn't dare to do that!"
“So, this is a good opportunity!”
"Your Majesty will prove my adoptive father's innocence!"
Jiang Chen said with a faint smile.
"This……"
Zhang San was extremely shocked when he heard Jiang Chen's words!
Is this still possible?
This is the first time he has heard of it!
"My Lord, then... we don't have to do anything?" Zhang San asked worriedly.
"That's right, you don't have to do anything!" Jiang Chen nodded firmly.
When Zhang San saw Jiang Chen like this, although he felt uneasy, he still obediently left.
On the other hand, after Eunuch Zhang and Cai Jing knew that the matter was exposed, their attitudes were surprisingly consistent!
Both of them wanted to suppress the matter!
……
Even Cai Jing wouldn't dare to attack General Luo now!
If General Luo gets unhappy and betrays the court and defect to the grassland, Dajing will be doomed!
Once Dajing dies, Cai Jing will be finished...
The two were soon summoned to the palace.
"I pay my respects to Your Majesty!"
After seeing Emperor Dajing, the two men bowed respectfully!
"My dear ministers, there is no need to be so polite! Please stand up quickly!"
Emperor Dajing hurriedly asked the two men to stand up.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
After hearing what Emperor Dajing said, the two men stood up.
"My two dear ministers, I think you have heard about the rumors in the capital now!"
"This...what should I do?!"
Emperor Dajing looked at the two of them nervously.
"Your Majesty! I think these rumors are simply nonsense!"
Eunuch Zhang said righteously!
"Your Majesty! I also think that this is absolutely false!"
"General Luo has been guarding the border for many years. It is impossible for him to do such a thing!"
"Some villain must have seen that war was about to break out in Dajing and was deliberately trying to sow discord! Your Majesty, don't believe this!"
Cai Jing also spoke hurriedly.
Emperor Dajing was also relieved when he heard what the two said.
In fact, Emperor Dajing didn't want to believe it either!
But the main reason is that this matter was spread too widely!
"My dear ministers, I don't believe this is true either!"
"I believe that General Luo will never betray the court!"
"But now, what should we do about this matter?"
Emperor Dajing asked nervously.
……
Eunuch Zhang and Cai Jing looked at each other after hearing this, and finally Eunuch Zhang spoke first.
"Your Majesty, I think we should investigate this matter thoroughly to see who is secretly passing the message!"
"That's right! Lord Zhang is right, but I think that in addition to this, Your Majesty should also issue an imperial decree to clear General Luo's name!"
"So as not to chill the hearts of the border soldiers!"
Eunuch Zhang and Cai Jing spoke one after another.
After hearing what the two said, Emperor Dajing also nodded.
"What you two said makes sense, so I will follow your advice!"
"Lord Zhang, I'll leave it to you, the Golden Dragon Guard, to investigate this matter thoroughly!"
"This time, we must not only find out who did it, but also find out who is the Eighth Sage King!"
"The minister obeys the order!"
Eunuch Zhang respectfully accepted the order.
"Lord Cai, after I write the imperial edict, you will pass it on. Officials in the court are not allowed to discuss this matter. If anyone dares to talk nonsense, they will all be dismissed from office!"
"The minister obeys the order!"
As the two edicts of Emperor Dajing were issued, Eunuch Zhang and Cai Jing also left the imperial study.
The two walked out of the palace.
But after arriving at the gate of the palace, Cai Jing looked at Eunuch Zhang coldly.
"You already knew about this, right?"
"Oh? Don't you know what Lord Cai means?" Eunuch Zhang asked back after hearing Cai Jing's question.
"Haha, so what if I know? I, Cai Jing, am a civil official and cannot interfere in the affairs of military generals!"
"But you, Master Zhang, are different!"
"You hold the Golden Dragon Guard in your hands and can inspect all officials. This matter... you should be in charge!"
Cai Jing laughed coldly.
"Master Cai, do you think my Golden Dragon Guards can check the officials?"
"Then...how should I deal with Prime Minister Cai's matter?" Eunuch Zhang smiled faintly.
However, he added the pronunciation to the three words "Prime Minister Cai"!
……
"you……!?"
Cai Jing's face turned cold when he heard this!
He knew that Eunuch Zhang was hinting to him that the other party knew about his clique-based activities!
However, the game between the two is not so simple!
"Sir Zhang, I heard that the Minister of Revenue is the Eighth Wise King's man. I wonder... Sir Zhang, do you want to get rid of him?" Cai Jing suddenly asked.
When Eunuch Zhang heard this, he smiled and said, "Master Cai is right. This Minister of Revenue should indeed be removed, otherwise there will definitely be chaos in the court!"
"But I heard that the Minister of Personnel is from Dakang. I wonder... should he make his debut?"
"Um!?"
When Cai Jing heard this, his face changed instantly!
He really didn't know about the Minister of Personnel!
But if the Minister of Personnel is removed and this position becomes vacant...
"What does Master Zhang want?"
Cai Jing stared at Eunuch Zhang and asked.
"Haha, talking to smart people is simple!"
Eunuch Zhang smiled faintly, then said, "I want the Ministry of Revenue!"
"Okay, then I'll go to the Ministry of Personnel!" Cai Jing said without hesitation.
The two reached a consensus in this way!
After they smiled at each other, they all left.
At the same time, in the imperial study of the palace, Emperor Dajing was thinking.
He felt that what General Luo said was very likely true!
But he didn't understand why General Luo did this!
After he ascended the throne, he had great trust in General Luo!
Giving General Luo supreme power, is it possible that... this is still not as much as the profits brought by smuggling?
While Emperor Dajing was thinking, a beautiful figure slowly walked into the imperial study...
