As the war supervising minister, Qin Tianhu not only had many party members, but also had a wide network of connections. He had already known this decision when the officials made it. At this time, he was prompted by the eyes of Emperor Liang, and he immediately stepped forward, cupped his hands and bowed: "Qi Report to the sage, I have something to report."
"I heard that the Ministry of Personnel assigned Qin Feng to go to Fuyun County to exchange political experience with the Fuyun County magistrate. It was a good thing, but the timing was wrong. After all, Qin Feng had just returned to Beijing from Beixi County and had not yet established his feet. So he was sent out again, which is really unjustifiable. He also asked the saint to issue an edict to deny the matter."
Emperor Liang pretended to glance at the Minister of Civil Affairs and asked casually: "Wu Aiqing, is this the case?"
Wu Mian immediately stepped forward, lowered his head and bowed: "Reporting to the saint, this is indeed true. However, I think it is inappropriate... Although Qin Feng is the legitimate son of the Qin family, after all, he has become the magistrate of Beixi County. If you have an official status, you should be deployed by the staff. Besides, as a minister supervising war, Mr. Qin should avoid suspicion. How can he excuse Qin Feng in this court meeting? I think Mr. Qin is suspected of engaging in malpractice for personal gain. "
Qin Tianhu had long expected that Wu Mian would bite back, and immediately asked: "Master Wu said that I engaged in malpractice for personal gain? Then I have to ask, there are so many officials in the world, why is Master Wu only interested in Qin Feng? In just a few days, there are After two overseas assignments, did Mr. Wu have nothing to do all day long, just staring at Qin Feng? Could it be that he was deliberately targeted and took the opportunity to suppress him? "
After all, Wu Mian was a dignified minister, so he naturally kept his composure and said calmly: "I am the minister, and I suppress a county magistrate? It's ridiculous."
Emperor Liang just watched the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Personnel arguing in the court, with no intention of intervening.
After all, this kind of thing was "too small", too small for Emperor Liang to intervene.
If Emperor Liang had to deal with all sesame and mung bean matters in the world, then he would not do anything serious this day.
Moreover, as an emperor, he enjoyed watching the court games played by all the parties under his command.
This is one of his greatest pleasures as an emperor...
Although Qin Tianhu argued with reason, after all, the Ministry of War did not have the authority to call officials. Even if he argued with anger, it would not help.
Just when this matter is about to be finalized.
But the young eunuch announced outside the door: "Qin Feng, the magistrate of Beixi County, has an audience."
Upon hearing that Qin Feng was coming, Emperor Liang couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, thinking that this boy would react quickly and immediately announced that Qin Feng was coming to the palace.
Wu Mian, who was still arrogant just now, suddenly became silent.
It's not that he's afraid of Qin Feng, it's just that he doesn't want to go to court with Qin Feng. After all, Wu Mian works as a gunman for Gao Ming, so he feels somewhat guilty.
Due to the Liang Dynasty, the humanities were relatively open-minded.
Therefore, the design of official uniforms is also relatively clear.
Qin Feng was wearing a pink county magistrate's uniform, an official hat on his head, and official boots on his feet. With his hands on his hips, Qin Feng walked into the hall with a swagger. He looked very energetic.
For a time, all the civil and military eyes of the court were focused on Qin Feng.
Qin Feng was a frequent visitor to the hall, and he was not afraid of the stage. He walked directly to Qin Tianhu and Wu Mian.
Before he could stand firmly on his heels, he was kicked by Qin Tianhu and shouted: "Get behind you!"
Only then did Qin Feng remember that his official rank was too low, and his smug expression suddenly faltered. He took a few steps back dejectedly, covering up his embarrassment with a smile: "Your Majesty, Qin Feng, Magistrate of Beixi County, pays homage to the saint!"
As he spoke, Qin Feng bowed his hands and bowed.
As a result, before Wu Mian could speak, Li Xu snorted coldly: "A mere ninth-grade county magistrate is supposed to have an audience outside the palace. How can you have a place in this hall? Besides, only officials of the third-rank and above can have an audience with the holy magistrate." Talents are exempted from kneeling, but you, a ninth-grade sesame official, dare to stand before me?"
What are you talking about?
Once you have an official status, you are no longer free!
This is why Qin Feng has always scorned the official body.
Faced with Li Xu's scolding, Qin Feng did not give up at all. He grinned and asked: "Master Li, you are really lenient. The officials haven't said anything yet, why did your household department interrupt?"
Li Xu didn't expect that Qin Feng would dare to speak rudely in front of the saint in the main hall, and was caught off guard for a moment.
Qin Feng ignored Li Xu. After all, the person in charge today was Wu Mian.
Qin Feng directly bent his waist to ninety degrees, faced Emperor Liang with great piety and humility, and wailed loudly: "Please sage make the decision for me! Wu Mian first demoted me to Beixi County, and now he has just returned to Beijing, but he sent me again Going to Fuyun County is clearly a matter of public avenge! Previously, Wu Mian and I had a feud at Zuixian Tower. Wu Mian was so displeased that he ignored the urgency of war preparations and suppressed me for killing Zhong Ling. If this spread, the official Where is the wind?"
Wu Mian had a big mouth and looked at Qin Feng in disbelief. He never dreamed that Qin Feng would suddenly bring up this old and rotten millet thing.
At Zuixianlou, Qin Feng did beat Wu Yong, the son of Wu Mian, and An Shiyun, the son of An Qinghou, who was also beaten by Haibian.
Wu Mian was indeed angry for a while, but then he thought about it, it was inconvenient to go into the matter further, otherwise it would be an open confrontation with the Ministry of War, and the gain would outweigh the loss.
Moreover, the fact that Wu Yong commandeered the singers in Zuixian Tower also made Wu Mian very angry. Afterwards, he lamented the misfortune of his family and gave Wu Yong a severe lesson.
As for Qinghou on that bank, he is on good terms with Yonganhou.
Since Marquis Yong'an had already joined the Qin family, the grudges of Marquis Anqing had naturally disappeared.
At this time, Qin Feng suddenly raised old scores, catching Wu Mian off guard.
Wu Mian quickly defended: "The sage has a clear lesson! Sending Qin Feng to Fuyun County is a carefully considered arrangement by the officials. After all, the sage also knows the situation in Fuyun County. It is a shame for the thirty-six counties in Kyoto. And Qin Feng has made great achievements in governing Beixi County and must have advanced experience, so it is reasonable to send him to assist the county in formulating policies. As for the matter of avenging private vengeance, it is clear that Qin Feng deliberately framed it."
Emperor Liang naturally knew the inside story, but he was just too lazy to pay attention to it. Now that the old score had been revealed, Emperor Liang followed suit and turned to look at Qin Feng: "Is it a public revenge for private revenge, or is it a deliberate frame-up? You need to make it clear, otherwise the little county magistrate will Do you know what the crime is for impeaching the minister?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Feng jumped back in fright, with a face full of panic: "Impeachment? How dare a subordinate impeach the Lord Shangshu? I am just discussing the matter, and it is clearly the Lord Shangshu who has taken the lead."
"And what Master Wu just said... Fuyun County is the shame of the thirty-six counties in Kyoto? Haha! If I remember correctly, Prince Ming's family is in Fuyun County. Could Master Wu be deliberately mocking Prince Ming? "
As soon as these words came out, Wu Mian's expression changed drastically.
Wu Mian actually forgot that Qin Feng is the best at picking out words!
If this matter reaches the ears of Prince Ming, the old man will dare to come and chop Wu Mian with a knife.
And when Prince Ming was mentioned, Emperor Liang's face turned ugly.
Among so many princes and nobles, only this Prince Ming was a thorn in the side of Emperor Liang!
