The most romantic little emperor
Chapter 141: Unsolvable Conspiracy
Dong Sicheng frowned at this time. Although he and Su Zhengfang had temporarily reached an alliance, he was unwilling to miss out on the huge benefits.
Especially Su Zhengfang criticized his own people in front of all the civil and military officials in the court.
This made him feel uncomfortable, as if he had been slapped in the face in public.
If Dong Sicheng doesn't do something, what will the ministers who support him think? Will they continue to support him as always?
Dong Sicheng suddenly raised his head and glanced at Zhang Qing beside him.
He saw Zhang Qing staring at him intently. His deep eyes seemed to express his desire, the desire to get the support of his tutor.
Afterwards, Dong Sicheng saw that the ministers who were close to him were all looking at him, as if waiting for his decision.
At this moment, Qin Hao's voice sounded like a ghost, and he could only be heard sighing: "What a pity, what a pity!"
Xie An quickly picked up Qin Hao's words and said firmly: "Your Highness, in fact, Zhang Qing is less than fifty years old, one year younger than me, but he looks a little old."
Qin Hao nodded and asked casually: "Is Zhang Qing in the court?"
When Zhang Qing heard the prince's voice, he felt it was as beautiful as the sound of nature. He quickly stood up and bowed to Qin Hao.
Qin Hao thought that this man was not as old as Su Zhengfang said.
He casually asked Zhang Qing a few more questions about the Ministry of Revenue, and Zhang Qing answered them all fluently, and he did not seem as incapable of the responsibility as Su Zhengfang said.
Therefore, he already had a plan in mind, and said directly: "Du Youwei is one, Zhang Qing is also one, now we have two candidates."
"Taifu Dong, I wonder who you want to recommend? You might as well tell us so that all the civil and military officials in the court can hear it."
All the civil and military officials in the court instantly focused their attention on Dong Sicheng, secretly wondering who he would recommend.
Su Zhengfang was extremely nervous. He was certainly not nervous about a small official appointment, but he was nervous that Dong Sicheng would tear up the agreement at all costs.
After all, Zhang Qing is Dong Sicheng's man, and they are brothers-in-law. If he recommended Zhang Qing, it would mean that the alliance between the two families would be broken.
When Su Zhengfang thought about the alliance that had just been formed for less than a day being broken, his hatred for Qin Hao deepened.
Dong Sicheng's heart tightened. He knew that at this moment, his every word and action would affect his status and reputation.
He took a deep breath and said in a calm tone: "Your Highness, the people recommended by Minister Su and Grand Tutor Xie are all good."
"However, I am more inclined to Zhang Qing who was recommended by Grand Tutor Xie."
"Although Zhang Qing is a little older, he is experienced and capable, and is just the right person to take on this important task."
When Su Zhengfang heard Dong Sicheng say Zhang Qing's name, he was already disheartened.
At this moment, he closed his eyes, shook his head secretly, and his heart was already burning with anger.
Sure enough, the alliance was meaningless in the face of interests, and Dong Sicheng chose interests at all costs.
When Qin Hao heard the result, it was exactly what he expected. He thought to himself that his plan of killing three warriors with one peach had succeeded, and the alliance between the Su and Dong families had been broken.
So he laughed and said, "Minister Su, do you want all the civil and military officials in the court to vote again?"
"no need."
Su Zhengfang said calmly, showing no sadness or joy.
"Well, effective immediately, Zhang Qingping, the former Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Works, will be transferred to the Ministry of Revenue and take over the position of Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue."
Qin Hao was in a good mood and announced loudly: "The former position of Right Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Works will be reappointed by the Ministry of Personnel by selecting a suitable talent."
Zhang Qing was deeply moved when he got what he wanted. He kowtowed to express his gratitude and gave a grateful look to Xie An and Dong Sicheng.
In this matter, Qin Hao won a great victory. Not only did he successfully destroy the alliance between Su and Dong, he also provoked disputes between the two families and took the position of Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Works into his own hands. He really achieved three goals with one stone!
Although Dong Sicheng gained some small gains, he also completely broke off relations with Su Zhengfang, ending the short-lived alliance between the Su and Dong families. He was really picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons.
Su Zhengfang gained nothing and was stabbed in the back by Dong Sicheng. More importantly, his status and reputation were affected. It was like looking for hair on a turtle shell - a waste of effort.
This is the allusion of "One peach kills three men". Its actual application in the real officialdom is worthy of the famous unsolvable conspiracy in history, and it also deserves to be called the most poisonous scheme of all time.
After dealing with the matter, Qin Hao asked calmly, "My dear ministers, do you have anything else to report?"
General Lin Guodong of the Xuanwu Guard, Minister of War Wen Tai, Kong Boli and others immediately turned their eyes to Su Zhengfang.
Su Zhengfang remained unmoved. He still closed his eyes and pretended to be oblivious to what was happening in the world.
Qin Hao noticed their looks, and thoughtfully asked, "Minister Su, do you have anything to say?"
Su Zhengfang then slowly opened his eyes and replied softly, "Your Highness, I have nothing to say."
There was a hint of doubt in Qin Hao's eyes. Several of his cronies were looking at him. It was obvious that Su Zhengfang was up to no good and was ready to attack him.
Qin Hao was secretly wondering in his heart, what caused Su Zhengfang's abnormal behavior today to change his original plan?
Obviously it was not because of the dispute in the court just now. Did something unspeakable happen last night?
That's probably the case, otherwise he wouldn't look so haggard, as if he hadn't slept all night.
He couldn't help but ask tentatively: "Minister Su, are you really okay? Why do I feel that you are a little absent-minded today?"
Su Zhengfang shook his head lightly and said calmly: "Your Highness is overthinking. I am just a little tired."
Qin Hao stopped asking questions, laughed, and said frankly: "Since Lord Su has nothing to say, I have two things to share with you."
All the civil and military officials in the court immediately became alert and pretended to listen attentively.
Qin Hao nodded in satisfaction and continued, "I think everyone has already known that yesterday afternoon, Ruifenghao Grain Store, one of the four largest grain stores in Beijing, hired thugs to beat up the people who were buying grain in public."
"If I hadn't happened to be passing by, I don't know how many lives would have been lost and how many families would have been torn apart."
"This is extremely bad and has seriously threatened the lives and safety of the people. This is intolerable."
"Therefore, this king has decided to launch a campaign to eliminate gangsters and evil forces in the capital. The main purpose is to crack down on illegal and evil forces such as bullying and market domination, forced buying and selling, collusion between officials and businessmen, oppression of the people, and trafficking of women and children."
"To create a better development environment for the commercial development of the capital, and at the same time give our people of Daxia a bright and peaceful world."
"I wonder what you gentlemen think of this suggestion of mine?"
