For the Tiger Flag and Wei Zhongxian, if the relationship is broken, it is broken.
The only regret for him was that he would no longer be able to receive filial money from Hu Ziqi every year.
"The four-wheeled cart I have built these days is almost ready. I will accompany you to finish the last bits." Tianqi stood up and walked out.
Wei Zhongxian walked a few steps and said with a smile: "How can I build a carriage? I can only help the emperor move it around."
The eunuchs and maids followed him all the way.
Han Xu left the Qianqing Palace and walked on the road to meet with the cabinet. He couldn't help but said: "Elder Cabinet, why do you want to let Liu Heng go? As long as you catch him and send him to the prison cell of the Ministry of Punishment, and use some means, maybe you can get him If Wei Gong bites it out, it will be a serious crime of treason. Even if Wei Gong wins the Holy Heart, he will only be hated by the Holy One."
Highly recommended, it’s really good and worth installing. After all, there are many sources of books, complete books, and fast updates!
To this day, he still doesn't understand that Ye Xianggao doesn't support him in capturing Liu Heng and returning to Beijing.
"Is there any evidence from Datong about Liu Heng's rebellion?" Ye Xianggao looked at Han Xu and asked.
Han Xu frowned and said, "There are rumors everywhere in the capital about Liu Heng's rebellion. Isn't this enough?"
"You also said that this is a rumor. There is no substantial evidence to prove that he is treason. Even if he is arrested in the capital, it will be useless. Wei Zhongxian will definitely protect him to the death." Ye Xianggao said.
Han Xu said: "If Wei Zhongxian spends a lot of effort to protect Liu Heng, wouldn't it be more proof that Liu Heng's rebellion is inseparable from Wei Gong, and he will be prosecuted together."
"It's not that simple." Ye Xianggao chuckled, shook his head, and then said, "Brother Yu Chen, maybe he didn't see that our sage doesn't want Liu Heng's matter to involve Wei Zhongxian."
Han Xu frowned and said: "As long as we get evidence that Wei Zhongxian colluded with Liu Heng to rebel, even the Holy Emperor will not be able to ignore the ancestral foundation and protect Wei Zhongxian, a traitor."
"The problem is that we have no evidence to prove Liu Heng's rebellion. Just some rumors are not enough to charge a border town general with the crime of rebellion." Ye Xianggao reminded.
Han Xu said disapprovingly: "It's simple. As long as you put the person in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, there will be a way to make him confess his crime under the shock."
"Too impatient." Ye Xianggao looked disappointed and continued walking towards the cabinet.
He could understand Han Xu's determination to eradicate Wei Yi, but he didn't agree with Han Xu's eagerness for quick success.
Back to the cabinet.
Ye Xianggao said to Wang Wenyan who came up to him: "The Holy One intends to let Datong guerrilla Liu Heng go to Jiliao, and ordered the cabinet to draft an edict. You can go and do it. After writing it, hand it over to me."
Wang Wenyan was the think tank of the Donglin Party and assisted the Donglin Party in clearing away the influence of other parties in the DPRK and China.
Ye Xianggao valued such capable people very much and personally brought them to the cabinet to work.
"Mr. Ge, I'm afraid there's no need to write this decree." Wang Wenyan said in a low voice.
Hearing this, Ye Xianggao frowned and said, "What? There are changes in Datong?"
The change was that Liu Heng of Datong had rebelled.
"That's not true." Wang Wenyan shook his head and said immediately, "However, not long after you went to Qianqing Palace to meet the Holy Spirit, Datong sent a resignation letter. It was sent by Liu Heng."
"Is he going to resign?"
Han Xu, who had followed Ye Xianggao back, heard Wang Wenyan's words and immediately exclaimed.
Everyone else wants to be promoted, but this Liu Heng not only doesn't want to be promoted, but also wants to resign, especially at such a moment.
"No." Ye Xianggao dismissed it without even thinking.
Rumors about Liu Heng's rebellion have spread throughout the capital. Ye Xianggao naturally understands the means of resigning to prove his innocence.
If it had been anyone else, he would have resigned, but Liu Heng and Wei Zhongxian were unclear. Such a person should be sent to Jiliao to fight against the slave thieves, so he has decided to reject Liu Heng's request to resign. .
When there is an order from the capital about Liu Heng's appointment to Ji Liao, he won't care even if Liu Heng resigns again at that time, because once there is an order, if he wants to resign again, he will resist the order.
"Yes, I don't agree with his resignation." Han Xu also said from the side.
All eunuchs deserved death in his eyes.
Wang Wenyan smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid it doesn't matter if I disagree. The memorial says that Liu Heng is seriously ill and has been unable to leave for many days. He is about to die."
"Fart!" Han Xu couldn't help but shout.
There were rumors of Liu Heng's rebellion in the capital, and Liu Heng was in trouble immediately. He didn't believe there was such a coincidence in the world.
"It seems that this person is not an ordinary reckless man." Ye Xianggao frowned.
Naturally, he didn't believe that Liu Heng was really seriously ill.
But at this time, regardless of whether it is true or not, if the imperial court forcibly orders Liu Heng to go to Jiliao, if he dies on the way, it will definitely arouse the dissatisfaction of the generals, and he, the chief minister, will not be able to escape accountability.
Han Xu said: "Mr. Ge, we cannot agree to his resignation. The cabinet continues to draft edicts in accordance with the Holy Emperor's will and send people to Datong as soon as possible. I don't believe it. He can still resist the edict!"
Ye Xianggao glanced at Han Xu.
He was the first assistant, and Han Xu was the second assistant.
If he, the first assistant, had to resign as the chief minister because of Liu Heng's affairs, then the most likely person to take over as the first assistant would be Han Xu, the second assistant.
"Mr. Ge, this Liu Heng must be pretending to be ill. We can't be deceived by him." Han Xu advised.
Ye Xianggao frowned and pondered for a moment.
Finally, he said to Wang Wenyan: "Don't do anything about drafting the decree yet. You can bring over the memorial for Liu Heng's resignation."
"Mr. Ge, you can't let him deceive you." Han Xu couldn't help but said.
Ye Xianggao ignored Han Xu, walked to his seat alone and sat down.
On the other side, Wang Wenyan found Liu Heng's memorial and sent it to Ye Xianggao.
Taking the memorial, Ye Xianggao started to read it.
After reading it, I was sure that it was Liu Heng's resignation letter, and what was written on it was the same as what Wang Wenyan said.
After closing the memorial, he said to Han Xu: "Brother Yuchen, you need to go to Qianqing Palace with me again and hand over this memorial to the Holy Emperor for judgment."
Regardless of whether what was written in the memorial was true or false, he did not want to take the risk.
As for whether Tianqi agreed to Liu Heng's resignation after reading the memorial, or whether he continued to issue an order for Liu Heng to go to Jiliao, he, the chief assistant, did not need to bear much responsibility.
"Mr. Ge, there is no need to face the Holy Spirit in this matter. You and I should both know that Liu Heng is simply pretending to be ill." Han Xu's tone was a little hasty, trying to persuade Ye Xianggao to continue drafting the edict.
When Ye Xianggao saw that Han Xu was insisting on drafting the decree, he became increasingly unwilling to be the master, so he said: "It is better for the Holy Emperor to personally decide on such matters."
After saying that, he stood up, took the notebook and walked out.
Han Xu saw that Ye Xianggao was determined to meet the saint, so he had no choice but to go with him to Qianqing Palace again to meet the saint.
