In Chen Kee Teahouse, Mr. Zhang was very enthusiastic when he was preaching at the key points, and he preached very hard and with great emotion:
"Then Yang Yichen burst into tears when he heard the case being slapped and said, "How dare a crazy thief do such cruelty? The ministers in the court are probably greedy for power and afraid of death. Don't the ministers in the outer vassal town have loyal ministers and righteous men who can punish this traitor?" He cried bitterly. . It was a night when I was feeling depressed, so I lit a candle, read a book in the study, and sighed..."
While listening to what Mr. Zhang said about Ye Mingsheng, he suddenly asked Wang Xuecheng beside him:
"Xuecheng, you should have heard the news. What do you think of this administrative reform?"
Hearing Ye Mingsheng ask this, Wang Xuecheng, who was already in a very complicated mood, was even more surprised. He is the deputy director of the Coordination Office and the executive department of the Fengwu Army. According to the rules set by Ye Mingsheng, the Coordination Office cannot Those who interfere with government affairs!
In the past few years, many people in the Coordination Office have violated this rule and have been severely punished by Ye Mingsheng. But now Ye Mingsheng has taken the initiative to ask himself, what are his views on the new round of administrative reform? Is this an adult testing whether he will obey the rules or not?
Thinking of this, Wang Xuecheng immediately said:
"My lord, I have no opinion on this administrative reform. Everyone in the Coordination Office is loyal to you, Your Majesty. The Coordination Office will do whatever you say!"
Hearing this answer from Wang Xuecheng, Ye Mingsheng burst into laughter, and then said with a smile:
"Now that I've asked you to meet here, you don't have to be so formulaic. You can speak freely!"
After hearing what Ye Mingsheng said, Wang Xuecheng realized that he had guessed Ye Mingsheng's thoughts wrongly. Although he didn't know what Ye Mingsheng's intention was in asking this question, it seemed that if he continued to fool Ye Mingsheng, he would definitely not let Ye Mingsheng satisfy······························
After thinking about this clearly, Wang Xuecheng also fell into deep thought, and Ye Mingsheng did not urge him to look at Mr. Zhang on the stage and quietly listened to the romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties.
The purpose of this administrative reform is not complicated in Wang Xuecheng's view, because the Fengwu Army's territory is now too large, including Liaoyang, Youyan, Qilu, Jiyu, Anqing, and some of the land merged with Huainan. The places put together cover half of the world.
Faced with such a large territory, the original governance system of the Fengwu Army was a bit too rough. Therefore, in order to govern the area more precisely, and to better centralize power and ensure the authority of the central government, Ye Mingsheng established what was equivalent to a small army. Each game of the six departments!
Compared with the Legal Affairs Bureau, the Personnel Bureau, the Government Affairs Bureau and other departments, this so-called Central Council seems to be a decoration. It can even be considered as a department specially set up by Ye Mingsheng for Cui Shao, giving Cui Shao a so-called power in name only. The central envoy who is inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people.
But in fact, the power Cui Shao actually possesses comes from his concurrent position as Director of the Political Affairs Bureau!
Although he understood Ye Mingsheng's intention this time, Wang Xuecheng still said very cautiously when faced with Ye Mingsheng's inquiry:
"Sir, I think your administrative reform has made great contributions to the past and is beneficial to the present. Only by returning power to the central government can we better implement various policies and ensure that the people can get real benefits. Affordable·······················》
"As far as I know, after the news of this new round of administrative reform leaked out, the soldiers and civilians under my Fengwu Army are very happy. They all think that you are the true son of destiny and a good lord who is benevolent and loves the people!"
Although Wang Xuecheng's words were very flattering, Ye Mingsheng said indifferently:
"You're done. This time I plan to make Wei Gang the director of the Legal Affairs Bureau. I will hand over one of the deputy directors to Cui Zibo. There is another deputy director position in the Legal Affairs Bureau. Are you interested?"
"When you joined the Coordination Office, I promised you that as long as the Coordination Office is on the right track, I will let you return to the right path. Now that the Coordination Office is developing quite well, it is time for me to let you return to your original job. went!"
Hear Ye
When Ming Sheng said this, Wang Xuecheng's expression suddenly froze. What he was most worried about finally happened!
Although it was a bit hard to accept, Wang Xuecheng also understood that although Ye Mingsheng used a discussion tone, thunder, rain and dew were all your kindness, and he had no right to choose to refuse. Thinking of this, he secretly took a deep breath, sorted out the emotions in his heart, and his face He forced out a smile and said to Ye Mingsheng:
"Thank you for your understanding! I'm grateful for the lesson!"
Listening to Wang Xuecheng's answer, Ye Mingsheng nodded with satisfaction, and then warned:
"The Ministry of Justice will unifiedly manage the inspection departments in various places. The responsibility is very heavy. I can only rest assured if a general like you, Xuecheng, is in charge... ············》
"Thank you for your trust, sir. I will do my best in this humble position!" Wang Xuecheng said respectfully:
After giving Wang Xuecheng a few more instructions, Ye Mingsheng had enjoyed enough. He threw down the tea money and stood up to leave. Wang Xuecheng followed him all the time. After Ye Mingsheng entered the carriage, he seemed to have thought of it and said to Wang Xuecheng:
"When you come back this time, you should have a good rest for a few days. The official appointment from the Legal Affairs Bureau will be officially issued in a few days. Ji Xian will look for you to make the handover in the next few days!"
When Wang Xuecheng heard the name Ji Xian, his eyebrows jumped slightly, but he still bowed and said:
"Yes! My lord!"
Patting Wang Xuecheng's shoulder again, Ye Mingsheng led the people away. Watching Ye Mingsheng's carriage leave, Wang Xuecheng's expression became very complicated until the carriage Ye Mingsheng was riding completely disappeared from sight. Then he slowly left and returned home.
As the deputy director of the Coordination Office, Wang Xuecheng's mansion is also very luxurious. There is a three-level mansion covering an area of more than ten acres on Fuxiang Street, one of the best areas in Yijing. After Wang Xuecheng returned to the mansion, his wife Ye Yingying He walked over and said excitedly:
"Ms. sir, look, I just made a new suit at the tailor shop today. What do you think?"
Wang Xuecheng was not interested in what Ye Yingying said. He sat on the chair with his eyes closed in a somewhat decadent manner. At this time, Ye Yingying did not feel the strange emotion in Wang Xuecheng's heart, and still took out a banknote on her own. , preaching the good news to Wang Xuecheng:
"Ms. sir, shopkeeper Liu of De'anju came here this morning and brought us five hundred taels of silver. I've long heard that shopkeeper Liu of De'anju is an extraordinary man. It turned out to be true when we saw him today... ·························》
Wang Xuecheng, who was already irritable, heard that Ye Yingying had taken another five hundred taels of silver and immediately became angry and cursed from the bottom of his heart:
"You ignorant woman, don't you know what the current situation is? Do you still dare to collect money?"
"Do you want to kill me? Kill our whole family?"
Ye Yingying, who was in high spirits, was stunned when she heard Wang Xuecheng's crazy roar. She didn't understand what happened, and she said aggrievedly with tears in her eyes:
"You heartless bastard, did you get offended by that wild woman again, and come back to take it out on me?"
Although Wang Xuecheng and Ye Yingying were very loving in the early years of their marriage, Wang Xuecheng even promised to be a couple for the rest of their lives.
However, as Wang Xuecheng, the deputy director of the Coordination Office, became more and more powerful, he faced more and more temptations every day, and Ye Yingying began to age and lose her beauty, so it was no surprise that Wang Xuecheng also had other As a woman, her thoughts are increasingly no longer on Ye Yingying.
Faced with this situation, Ye Yingying felt very sad, but she also knew that she could not change anything, but she also made a request to Wang Xuecheng!
This requirement is that you, Wang Xuecheng, can find another woman, but you cannot bring her to my home. If you are outside, you can do whatever you want and I will not see you... ···········
To be honest, Wang Xuecheng was very dissatisfied with this request from his wife. He thought that a woman like him didn't have three wives and four concubines. It doesn't matter if he plays with a few women. Why?
Why can others take it home while I can only sneak it outside?
Ye Yingying also resisted resolutely and refused to let Wang Xuecheng bring the wild woman home. In the end, she saw that Ye Yingying was very determined to live or die, and she was a relative of the Ye family, and she was Ye Mingsheng's sister in terms of seniority. It would not be good for him to make a big fuss, so Wang Xuecheng held his nose and endured it!
At this time, facing Ye Yingying's nonsense, Wang Xuecheng, who was irritated, asked seriously:
"I asked you how much money you still have at home?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Yingying immediately became vigilant and said very carefully:
"Wang Xuecheng, what do you want to do? It's not enough for you to spend money on wild women yourself? Do you want to use your family's money to spend on wild women?"
Seeing that Ye Yingying couldn't do without the wild woman, Wang Xuecheng was so angry that one Buddha left his body and two Buddhas ascended to heaven. He said helplessly:
"Now that disaster is imminent, can you stop messing around and tell me how much money you still have at home?"
Facing Wang Xuecheng's words, Ye Yingying still said very nonchalantly:
"What kind of disaster is coming! My surname is Ye! I am the commander's sister, and you are the commander's brother-in-law, or the deputy director of the Coordination Office. Who in the entire Yi Jing would dare to touch you?"
"Well, Wang Xuecheng, now you have learned to make up lies for those dirty wild women... "
Seeing that Ye Yingying still refused to give up, Wang Xuecheng could only tell the truth and said:
"Who do you think can touch me? Who dares to touch me?"
As soon as these words came out, Ye Yingying was stunned at first. She was not too stupid as a woman. Seeing her husband looking so anxious and frustrated, she also realized the key to the matter and cautiously said:
"Does the commander want to touch you?"
Wang Xuecheng sighed after hearing this, nodded bitterly and said:
"Commander, he removed me from the position of deputy director of the Coordination Department and asked me to be the deputy director of the Legal Affairs Bureau!"
Hearing this situation, Ye Yingying blinked her eyes and said:
"Isn't this just what you want? Don't you want to leave the Tongtong Office and become a serious civil servant?"
"The deputy director of the Legal Affairs Bureau seems to be pretty good too. I heard that from now on this Legal Affairs Bureau will be the Criminal Department of the Fengwu Army. You, the deputy director, should be equivalent to the Minister of Criminal Affairs!"
Wang Xuecheng shook his head helplessly and said:
"Do you, a woman, know what it means to rise brightly and fall darkly?"
"I am now the deputy director of the Coordination Office. I can attend the Zhongwu Hall meeting. But now to be transferred to the deputy director of the Legal Affairs Bureau is equivalent to transferring me from the core and key position. And the most important thing is that the commander-in-chief is The first time was to ask Ji Xian to replace me!"
Hearing the name Ji Xian, Ye Yingying was also a little scared and said:
"Is he the guard hound you mentioned?"
Wang Xuecheng said in a very depressed mood:
"It's him! The commander-in-chief asked him to replace me this time. Maybe he has the idea of digging deeper into the coordination office. I have to make plans in advance. I definitely can't sit still and wait for death... ··············》
Hearing what Wang Xuecheng said, Ye Yingying finally realized the seriousness of the matter. There was fear in her eyes and she couldn't help but said:
"Xuecheng, did you do something to make the commander unhappy? Why did this happen so suddenly!"
"If it doesn't work, I will go to the eldest lady and the old lady tomorrow and ask them to come forward and plead for you!"
Hearing what Ye Yingying said, Wang Xuecheng quickly stopped her and said:
"Don't do this! My lord is very disgusted with you asking for mercy. If you go to them to beg for mercy, things will get worse, not to mention the eldest lady, she can't protect herself now!"
Seeing her husband say this, Ye Yingying was extremely worried and said:
"Then what do you think we should do when we finish our studies? Will our family be confiscated and our clan exterminated too?"
Feeling his wife's worry, Wang Xuecheng felt extremely worried.
Regretful, he originally thought that this matter could be hidden, but he did not expect that the commander would eventually find out the clues. What he is doing now can be regarded as his own fault.
But now that the matter has come to this, we can only take one step at a time, and then comfort Ye Yingying and say:
"Don't cry! I, Wang Xuecheng, have worked hard for the Fengwu Army and the Marshal all these years without any credit. The Marshal is not a person who doesn't miss his old feelings and will not kill our whole family. Look at Zhang Dehui. Aren't Ye Hongsheng and his family living well? Huo San was only demoted to one level of commander and let him go!"
"My problem is not as serious as the two of them! As long as we deal with it properly this time, maybe the commander will only give me a small punishment but a big warning!"
Hearing what Wang Xuecheng said, Ye Yingying finally calmed down again, wiped away her tears and said:
"What are you going to do after you finish your studies?"
Wang Xuecheng thought for a moment and said:
"Like Huo San and the others, they donated all the money they had at home..."
