Qin Xiaoda has admiration for Gu Baiyi in his heart.

Although Gu Baiyi is just a clerical man, his eyes are sharp and he sees the problem sharply.

Han Yunong was detained by the Ministry of War and was in danger. Qin Xiaochu entered Kyoto and was isolated and helpless. Had it not been for Gu Baiyi to figure out a way to use the Ministry of Justice, Han Yunong escaped from the Ministry of War.

At this time, listening to Gu Baiyi asserting that Han Yunong would not be in danger, he was happy and hurriedly said: "Brother Gu, do you mean that Han Duwei will be safe and sound?"

"You can rest assured, at least for the moment, the Criminal Ministry will protect him at all costs." Gu Baiyi said calmly: "I asked you to go to the Criminal Ministry yesterday. Actually, I can only be sure of 70%. I'm not sure that the Criminal Ministry will definitely. Shoot. Brother, it seems that the Ministry of Criminal Affairs is taking action against Fan Wenzheng, but it is not the Ministry of Criminal Affairs who really shot."

Qin Xiao's eyeballs turned, he understood a little, got close to Gu Baiyi, lowered his voice and said, "Is it a saint?"

Gu Baiyi nodded slightly and said in a low voice: "The Ministry of Criminal Affairs had successively launched major cases that year, and countless people were involved, but all the cases that Lu Junzhong personally involved in were bloodshed. Back then, the saint needed to use Lu Junzhong. This knife killed people, and the more people killed, the better, but then the power of the DPRK against the saints was wiped out. Naturally, Lu Junzhong had to put away this knife. Keeping this knife was just a deterrent. Because of this, Lu Junzhong has not been able to raise a major case in recent years, just because he knows very well in his heart that the saint does not want to make the court more turbulent."

Qin Xiao nodded slightly, knowing what Gu Baiyi said was reasonable.

"Lu Junzhong can sit firmly in the penalty department. In addition to being loyal to the saint, the most important thing is to be able to understand the saint's thoughts." Gu Baiyi said indifferently: "When the saint is about to kill, his knife immediately goes out of the sheath, thinking To calm down, he put the knife in its sheath, and the heat was controlled properly."

"Then this time he did his hands on the Ministry of War, naturally he understood the saint's intentions?"

Gu Baiyi stretched out his hand and took a piece of pastry in his hand. He seemed to like sweets very much. He was not polite with Qin Xiao. He relished: "Xiling rebellion, losing the city and losing ground, soon the world will know. Fan Wenzheng detained Lieutenant Han, He deliberately wanted to pull people into the water and save his position. Unfortunately, he was doomed to escape from the beginning. He should have pleaded with the saint immediately after learning of the Xiling rebellion and failed to transfer the Changsheng Army out in time. All the guilt outside the customs is on his own body. In this way, although Shang Shu’s position cannot be kept, his life should be safe, let alone his family."

"He is not confused, but unwilling to lose the power in his hands." Qin Xiao sneered: "Power makes people fascinated by the power, let him voluntarily hand over the power in his hands, he can't do it anyway." /

Gu Baiyi smiled and said: "What Brother Qin said is extremely true. Not only is he unable to do it, but how many people in this world can know how to advance and retreat? He made a fatal mistake because he forgot that the saint needs someone Come to bear the responsibility for the loss of Xiling. From the very beginning, he was the best scapegoat."

Qin Xiao nodded slightly, and Gu Baiyi sighed: "The Ministry of War wants to take money from the Ministry of Households, to mobilize the Changsheng Army as a bargaining chip, and bargain with the Ministry of Households. If the Treasury is full, Xiling's military situation is urgent, and the Ministry of War will allocate the silver When the money was paid, the treasury was too tight. Which of the branch offices was not waiting for the money. The household department and the branch offices were also close to each other. It was naturally not easy for the Ministry of War to get the money, so the two yamen entangled, who I don’t want to adjust the army in time. After all, it’s the Datang Treasury that has a problem, and the Ministry of Households can hardly be blamed for the affairs of the Longevity Army. The direct responsibility lies with the Ministry of War."

Qin Xiao looked solemn and didn't speak.

Datang once presided over the Quartet, all countries

Surrender, all industries are prospering, and there are rumors that the money in the treasury will not be used up. In order to reduce the pressure on the warehouse, we will send troops to the disobedient barbarians from time to time, which consumes money and can also shock the disobedient guys. .

Who would have thought that Datang has become so weak now that he can't even come up with money to send a soldier to Xiling.

"Fan Wenzheng didn't understand, Lu Junzhong understood." Gu Baiyi said, "You went to the Criminal Ministry yesterday and reported the disappearance of Han Duwei, and it was directly related to the Ministry of War. Lu Junzhong immediately smelled the blood and knew My chance is here."

Qin Xiaodao: "The saint's will is to only investigate the principal offender, and it should not be too far-reaching."

"The saint wanted to pull Fan Wenzheng out to give the world an explanation, but Lu Junzhong finally waited for the opportunity. Although he wanted to complete the saint's mind, he naturally did not let go of the opportunity to show his skills." Gu Baiyi He took a bite of the pastry and whispered softly: "If someone like Lu Junzhong is profitable, he will naturally do everything, but even if it is not profitable, he will never be vague as long as he can kill people and raise his power." After a pause, he continued: "Han Duwei was the most important witness for his downfall of the Ministry of War. He naturally did his best to protect him. Both you and Han Duwei belonged to General Black Feather. In other words, you represent the military. In this case, the saint wanted you to act as representatives of the military to call for injustice for the loss of Xiling and the general’s murder. In this way, Fan Wenzheng was taken out to commit the crime, which means that the saint is the master of the military and gives the military an explanation. "

Qin Xiao praised Gu Baiyi's insight into the situation of the court, and thought that Gu Baiyi was such a talent, but only served as a small clerk in Kyoto Prefecture. On the contrary, people like Lu Junzhong and Fan Wenzheng were in charge. It's really stinking.

"So you and Duwei Han will have nothing to do on the bright side." Gu Baiyi said: "But there is no looting, but there are hidden arrows. Fan Wen is falling, which will harm the interests of many people. In their eyes, it is you and Han. Lieutenant Du’s two little ants broke things, so it’s natural for them to step on the two ants. Brother Qin, Lieutenant Han told you to leave Kyoto. I understand this. I don’t want you. An accident happened in Kyoto, and the assassination last night may be just the beginning. No matter who planned the assassination behind the scenes, since it has already started, you will not give up just because of a miss. If you stay in Kyoto, you must be careful. ."

Qin Xiao smiled bitterly and said: "Thank you, Brother Gu for reminding you. It's just that I know you and Sister Qiu Niang. I have been bothering you in the past two days. I am afraid that those people have already known it, but this will affect you."

"You are worrying too much." Gu Baiyi smiled: "I am just a little clerical man, and my sister is just a boat girl. There is no threat to them, and there is no interest in them. The party behind Fan Wenzheng There is no need to do it to us. If you really want to see that I am not pleasing to the eye, just a random order can make me get out of Kyoto Prefecture. In their eyes, dealing with a small official like me is the greatest punishment if I don’t have a job. ."

Qin Xiao didn't know if Gu Baiyi was comforting herself, but what he said made Qin Xiao feel at ease.

Gu Baiyi has a gentle temperament, and it makes people feel very comfortable to get along with him, but Qin Xiao admits that his opinions are much higher than him.

"Brother Gu, what do you think is the next direction?" Qin Xiao asked humbly.

Gu Baiyi finished the pastry in his hand and glanced at the pastry gift box. The pastry in this gift box is very particular. There are eight kinds of pastries in total, each of which is delicate and beautiful. Gu Baiyi ate three pieces, which Qiu Niang originally took. I took a piece, but put it back without a bite.

There were five cakes in the gift box. Gu Baiyi was obviously embarrassed to take it again. Qin Xiao had already seen that Gu Baiyi liked sweets, so he took one directly

Handed it to Gu Baiyi and said: "The remaining four yuan will be reserved for sister Qiu Niang."

Gu Baiyi laughed, took the cakes, and whispered softly: "In fact, the situation is already clear. The Criminal Ministry caught the biggest fish as soon as it took action. In the past, Lu Junzhong started his case with marginal figures and slowly involved a large group of people. , And finally moved the top person. Now Fan Wenzheng is being taken. Now that he has entered the Criminal Department and has the will of a saint, if Fan Wenzheng wants to suffer less, he should write a guilt quickly, so the principal should The decision can be made within a few days. Lu Junzhong fears that the world will not be chaotic. It is certainly not enough to defeat Fan Wenzheng. After all, Fan Wenzheng is such a big government office. Fan Wenzheng's many party members are among them. Fan Wenzheng's party members will continue to control the Ministry of War. Junzhong is not a good thing."

"I see. Brother Gu meant that Lu Junzhong would use Fan Wenzheng's hand to implicate some people in the Ministry of War, and these people happen to be Fan Wenzheng's party members." Qin Xiao sighed, "Use Fan Wenzheng went to clear Fan Wenzheng’s party members. Lu Junzhong’s method is really clever."

"This trick is Lu Junzhong's housekeeping skill." Gu Baiyi's tone is calm, "If Fan Wenzheng is really hard, and if he bears the sin alone and does not involve others, then Lu Junzhong will not dare to involve others. Too wide, after all, the saint has a will and cannot involve too many people. However, if Fan Wenzheng really had the consciousness of taking all the guilt, he would not fall into the current situation, let alone enter the penalty department, his bones are still hard. However, it is unavoidable that officials of the Ministry of Defense are implicated in the sixteen branches of the Criminal Ministry."

Qin Xiao nodded slightly, and Gu Baiyi smiled and said: "The best result is that this case will be over soon. A group of people from the Ministry of War lost their heads because of the loss of Xiling. The court can also give an explanation to the people of the world. Those people who took this case in line with the minds of the saints will naturally be rewarded. As for Wei Han and you, for exposing the guilt of the Ministry of War, the court always wants to commend it, maybe they can give you some rewards, in the end No one mentions the loss of Xiling, everyone is happy."

Qin Xiao frowned and said: "Don't mention it? Brother Gu, Xiling is occupied by the rebels. Doesn't the court send troops to conquer?"

"Naturally, we will make a big fanfare and mobilize troops to counter the rebellion." Gu Baiyi thoughtfully, pondered: "Maybe some soldiers will be sent out, but the court will not care about the victory or defeat. Whether it is defeated, the court has no plans to use troops in Xiling."

"Lost the city and the land, the land is lost, they are not ready to use soldiers?" Qin Xiao said in amazement: "What do they want to do?"

Gu Baiyi was a little excited when he saw Qin Xiao’s state of mind, and was able to understand Qin Xiao’s state of mind, and said softly: "Brother Qin, don’t worry, it’s useless to be anxious. If you are not prepared for the Xiling rebellion, you might even have The Wutuo people are backing, how can they have the courage? Sending troops to Xiling is not to encircle and suppress a group of bandits, but to fight against the Xiling family and even the Wutuo people. Without sufficient preparation, without tens of thousands of troops or even sufficient money and equipment, the court is absolutely Will not act rashly."

Qin Xiao and his party came to Kyoto to report the news, but the most important purpose was to let the court mobilize troops to quell the chaos.

Gu Baiyi's words made Qin Xiao's heart sink to the bottom.
