Chapter 35 Things Backfired
His old eyes were not cloudy, they were even sharp and insightful.
Liang Huan was not afraid and looked directly at him, "It is right for you to have such doubts. After all, everyone in Jin Ye City knows the relationship between Liang Mansion and Sikong Mansion. But everyone has his own ambitions. What my uncle did It does not represent my position. I will never be a tool for him to please Wang Su."
Based on memory, they have just begun to investigate Wang Su's private coinage, but they should be doing it in secret. Not only was she aware of the secret affairs, but she actually came to her door with key evidence. This was really hard not to arouse suspicion. If it was too much of a coincidence, it would be an ulterior motive!
Cao Xiang didn’t believe her.
Thinking about this, Liang Huan continued: "Actually, Wang Su insisted on letting me pass the government, not because he really valued me, but because of some entanglements many years ago.
Your Excellency also knows that Wang Su He is my Aweng's student, but since Aweng passed away, Wang Su seems to have been trying to find something important in the Liang Mansion, but unfortunately to no avail. For some reason, he suspected that Aweng gave that thing to me. I originally I planned to find out, but I accidentally discovered that he was secretly minting coins.
The stakes were high. Most people didn't want to offend Wang Su, and they would never dare to take the risk to investigate. When I was distressed and entangled, I thought of Zeng. I admire Aweng so much that I dared to give it a try."
Cao Xiang looked at the red eyes and slightly trembling hands, and pondered for a moment, as if he was assessing the credibility of his words. .
Liang Huan didn’t know how much he could believe it, but thinking about Wang Tingyue’s dire situation, she couldn’t help but feel anxious: “Wang Su is a cunning person by nature. I don’t know what measures he will take once he discovers that the secret seal has been stolen. I know, please seize the opportunity, take a preemptive strike, and make a quick decision.”
Prime Minister Cao didn't speak, but Cao Jun said in confusion: "According to what the lady said, you and Wang Su have old grudges?"
Liang Huan didn't hide it either: "If there is suspicion and resistance to the cause of my father's death, Entering the Sikong Mansion is an old grudge, so I won’t deny it.”
Now that the matter has come to this point, it is more credible to conceal it than to admit it openly.
Hearing this, Cao Xiang, who had been silent for a long time, smiled and his eyes softened a bit, "You are quite courageous, little lady."
"Ah. Father——"
Cao Jun was about to open his mouth but was interrupted by Cao Xiang with a wave of his hand: "I already know about this matter and have made my own decision. You can send someone to take the young lady back."
After Cao Jun finished speaking, he closed his eyes to rest and stopped looking. They seemed extremely tired, and Liang Wenqian stood there. Such a neither salty nor bland reaction was really contrary to expectations.
So will he take action? She can wait, but Wang Tingyue can't wait -
Liang Han hesitated to speak, Cao Jun waited aside and signaled her to leave.
She glanced at Prime Minister Cao again. For some reason, the bright lights on the case could not illuminate the darkness between his brows. It turned out that the energetic Prime Minister was just an old man.
No matter how unwilling Liang Huan was, there was nothing he could do.
She turned around and prepared to follow Cao Jun out. She took a few steps, each step was heavy. Just as she was about to step out, she gritted her teeth and turned back.
Cao Xiang opened his eyes with a gentle look, "What else do you have to say, little lady?"
Liang Huan said bluntly: "People always think that a stubborn minister repels evil and upholds integrity. In fact, upright and loyal ministers are just ordinary fathers and fathers. After all, they are only flesh and blood, and they also have constraints and difficulties. "What do you mean, Sanniang?" Stepping forward, his brows were furrowed and his tone was somewhat displeased.
However, Prime Minister Cao did not see the anger on his face, but his eyes were kind, "Let her say it."
Liang Huan only said: "This time I came to the door, I don't know the heights of the world, and I do have hidden selfish motives. I also heard about your situation in the court. It's hard to say that others are completely ignorant of Wang Su's coinage. It's probably because of the emperor's favor that he doesn't dare to offend him and pretends not to know. Now, this junior brought this secret seal, which is undoubtedly a hot potato to the adults.
< br>The junior also knows that if Wang Su is dealt with, he will be regarded as a thorn in the side of those who form factions and seek personal gain in the court in the future. Therefore, it is right for you to have concerns at this moment."
Part 1. In his first life, he worked so hard to investigate. Just because the secret seal was fake, he was accused of malicious slander and exclusion of dissidents. No one in the court except Zhou Yun spoke for him. Could it be because of his always upright style? ?
“Do you think I’m scared?” Cao Xiang stroked his mustache and smiled unconsciously. Liang Huan shook his head quickly: "I don't dare, I just have a suggestion."
Cao Xiang raised his eyebrows, and the corner of his mouth was a little funny: "Young lady, you might as well say it straight."
"Strong wood will break. If you handle this matter according to the thunderous method before, you may encounter resistance. There are quite a few, so it’s better to compromise.”
Cao Xiang said seriously: “How to compromise?”
“The principal culprit will naturally be severely punished, and the accomplices will be dealt with accordingly, and the counterfeit money collected will also be punished. It can be stamped, turning waste into treasure, and adding it to the national treasury instead of the coins planned to be minted. As for the craftsmen who mint the coins, they will be screened. Those with excellent skills and willing to change their evil ways will also be included in the list of regular coin craftsmen. This will not only make the best use of everything. , it can also show the gentleness of an adult.”
After saying that, Cao Jun's expression changed, and Cao Xiang frowned and stared at her.
"You are so audacious! As a woman, you dare to discuss political affairs, which is simply treason!"
The sharp eyes made Liang Han shrink back, feeling a little resentful. She also knew this. The words should not have been spoken, but in order to reduce his worries, it was really a last resort to attack Wang Su as soon as possible——
Maybe she shouldn’t be so impatient...
She bent over Halfway through, he suddenly raised his head, his eyes bright: "Sir, if what I just said came from a man, would you still think it was treasonous?"
Cao Jun said with a cold face: "But you are indeed a woman! How can you say these words casually?"
Liang Huan simply stood up straight and looked at him sideways: "Why didn't you say that Nuwa, the creator of human beings, is still Woman?”
“Strong words,” Cao Jun was speechless.
Liang Huan did not follow his words, and only said: "My lord, shouldn't you first consider whether the method is feasible, rather than who the method comes from?"
Cao Xiang has stood up. , waved his hand: "Send her away!"
"Sanniang, please!"
Cao Jun stood in front of Liang Han with a naked eviction order.
"My lord——" Thinking that Wang Tingyue's life or death was uncertain, she didn't care whether it was rude or not.
Cao Xiang looked impatient and walked to the inner room. Seeing that she was still trying to pester her, Cao Jun called two maids and forcibly pulled her out of the house.
Outside the hospital, Liang Huan shook the maid away fiercely and stared at Cao Jun.
"I can leave by myself!"
He said this, but in the end his eyes were still glancing at the door. Unfortunately, no miracle happened.
Liang Huan looked back with some frustration.
Thinking that she was a weak lady but so timid on the outside but brave on the inside, Cao Jun also softened his attitude: "The third lady is still——"
"There are rumors that the general is in love with Princess Shaoyang. The good intentions are just empty words!”
