Chapter 117 Expose
Just from the fact that Tian’s usurpation of Qi, Yang Zheng originally had a little pity for the old royal family of Jiang’s family, at least he did not regard them as a madman. However, in this series of conflicts, the other party was deliberately trying to harm him, so don’t blame him for being ruthless.
After seeing through Lou He's true background last night, Yang Zheng was cautious and kept it secret. He waited until the winter trial started this morning that he sent Li Si to find Sun Dianxiong and exposed the Genting Gambling House.
In such a short time, the martial arts battalion suddenly launched an attack. Even if a spy wants to inform him, he has no time to react. At this moment, Lou He and others should have been trapped in a heavy siege and cannot escape.
Yang Zheng said it in public, in order to make the farmers completely desperate.
When everyone heard his words, they disagreed. Genting Gambling House has been operating for many years and has opened the market to control the winter trial gambling game. Of course, the powerful and powerful people in the capital have already investigated Lou He and thought they had mastered his background.
"Real identity? What's there to say?"
"Lou He is the chief doctor of the Academy, Prime Minister Gongsun's son-in-law. With his identity and position, it is not normal that he can run this business?"
"Yes, he also allocated the funds allocated to the academy every year. Who wouldn't sell him face to various schools?"
...
Whispering under the stage.
Yang Zheng heard it clearly and was secretly surprised. After entering the city, he was busy practicing in a closed door and was not interested in the aristocratic circle in the capital. Unexpectedly, Lou He had such a prominent identity in the open, no wonder he could eat the big cake by himself.
Doesn’t this mean that the Prime Minister is also suspected of colluding with the party?
He suddenly realized that today's revelation would bring great turmoil to the political arena of Qi. Once the prime minister is defeated, a large number of officials will inevitably be involved, and the King of Qi is seriously ill and bedridden, so some of them have been watched.
He coughed dryly and continued, "A few days ago, I tried my best and thanked everyone for their love. I became the biggest favorite to win the championship. Lou He personally visited me and wanted to persuade me to give up winning the championship and cooperate with him to make profits."
As soon as this statement was made, many viewers cursed that Lou He, the old fox, even used such a secret move, was indeed a businessman.
"I agreed at that time, but I was afraid of being plotted by him, so I sent my subordinates to the gambling house to monitor the movements of the market. Unexpectedly, I accidentally broke the mystery. The Genting Gambling House is actually the nest of the peasant party, and Lou He is the hero of the peasant family!"
As he said that, he looked at Li Si from behind the crowd and smiled.
Regarding Lou He's identity, they just speculated out of thin air and there was no definite evidence at hand. Therefore, Yang Zheng made a clever plan to charge Li Si for the crime of thieves, first enter the gambling house, and then let the martial arts camp search the gambling house in the name of catching thieves.
This trick really worked. Seeing the heavy army coming, the farmers in the gambling house thought the incident happened, like a frightened bird, eager to escape from the siege and reveal their traces. So the true face of the gambling house surfaced.
Just now, Li Si came to the winter test site and nodded to Yang Zheng. Everything went smoothly in the gambling house, and the gambling house was indeed a thief's nest. Yang Zheng took this reassurance and dared to expose it in public.
Otherwise, if the inference is wrong, the gambling house has nothing to do with the farmer, it would be like slandering Lou He and attacking important officials of the court. Yang Zheng could not afford such a serious crime. But he acted steadily and cautiously, so how could he act rashly?
After the truth was revealed, the scene was in an uproar.
"What? Lou He is a rebel party?"
"How is this possible? He is Prime Minister Gongsun's son-in-law!"
"If this matter is true, then the Prime Minister may be in trouble..."
Everyone talked and discussed it enthusiastically, and all foresaw the arrival of the storm.
After the examiner lost to the candidate Yang Zheng, even the dealer behind the scenes is now in his hands. This year's winter test has far more scenes than the exam itself, and it is much more exciting than the simple genius competition.
Yang Zheng was too lazy to pay attention to the reactions of the crowd, turned around and looked at the candidates' queue, and said lightly: "I know, some of you were instructed by Lou He to try to squeeze me out of the front line and let me fail the exam."
When the candidates heard this, they all looked panic and looked around, afraid that there would be peasant party members standing next to them, allowing themselves to be implicated.
"No matter who the rebel party is, I advise you to calm down and not to take the initiative to jump out, so that I can doubt you. You are still young and live well, isn't it good?"
After saying that, he returned to the queue.
For some reason, he had a strong premonition, and there was a very terrible threat lurking in the rear queue. Even as strong as Yang Xuan could not make him so uneasy.
...
...
Qi King Palace.
The bedroom is open and open, with nothing but the green curtains stacked and there is nothing else. The doors are open everywhere, and the cold wind from the outside blows in, shaking the curtains and making whistling sounds.
The copper pillars on the walls are painted black, which looks cold and gloomy. At this time, they are penetrated by the wind, which is even more cold and bone-black, making it difficult for people to live for a long time.
On the brocade bed deep in the palace, a middle-aged man sat cross-legged, closing his eyes to exercise his skills. The cold wind blew towards him, as if it was rolling up light snow, dyeing his temples white, and the coldness between his eyebrows became stronger.
In the past six months, King Jian of Qi ignored political affairs and claimed to be bedridden and recuperated, allowing rumors of critical illness to ferment between the court and the country. But looking at his qi and blood at this time, he was full of blood, so he was not even as ill.
Guiguzi's judgment was roughly correct. He deliberately pretended to be sick, just to watch the old forces that were ready to move, and to see hope, thinking that they could take the opportunity to show their true colors in front of him.
Since the Tian family usurped Qi, the remaining members of the Jiang family have never been eradicated. They have been hidden among the court and the country, becoming the confidant of the new royal power. If they are not given a chance, they will not dare to show up easily, and will ignore the elimination.
Therefore, King Jian of Qi came up with this idea.
In addition, there is another more important reason. He is about to break through the realm and has to go into seclusion and practice for half a year to avoid being plagued by earthly affairs.
Today, he doesn't pretend anymore.
Half an hour ago, his confidant who was stationed in the martial arts camp sent a secret report. After being reported by candidate Yang Zheng, the secret nest of the farmer's family was investigated, and the core strength of the remaining Jiang family members in Linzi City was finally exposed.
The prey he had sought after was found by Yang Zheng.
"I didn't expect that Prime Minister Gongsun, whom I trust most, was actually the protective umbrella of the old party. Under Gu's nose, he was doing something to betrayal!"
If Lou He had not been exposed, even if King Qi was cunning and suspicious, he would not have fallen his suspicious eyes on the Prime Minister.
The country is like a big tree. Even the prime minister has affair with the party. It is like the heart of the tree rotting and ill falling into the skin. It is to an irresistible point. The crisis reflected in this is far more serious than the loss of an important official.
King Qi closed his eyes and frowned, feeling heartbroken.
In the empty hall, there was a voice floating from nowhere and said quietly: "No matter what, it is a great achievement to pull out this nail that wedged into the court."
This speech is muddy and has an inexplicable majesty.
