Chapter 26: Shun the donkey
Chapter 26 Shun the Donkey
Meng Huizhou, that old man is about to be promoted? Jiang Erye's eyes widened, "Where did the news of the third brother come from?"
Jiang Huai said in a low voice, "Just yesterday, when the little eunuchs in the palace went to Jiexianglou to have a drink while doing business, the younger brother heard them talk that Du Hai'an will be promoted to the cabinet before the end of the year."
Du Hai'an is the Minister of Criminal Justice. After he joined the cabinet, there was a vacancy in the Minister of Criminal Justice. It was logical that Meng Huizhou, the minister of the Criminal Ministry, who had served in the Ministry for many years, was promoted to this position. The Minister of Punishment is a second-rank court official who holds real power. It should be noted that the civil officials above the second-rank and six-department ministers are only the left and right ministers and the three cabinet elders!
The anger swelled in Jiang Erye's chest, "If father is still there..."
One minister and two servants of the Ministry of Punishment. Although his father and Meng Huizhou were both ministers of the Ministry of Punishment, his father was more diligent than Meng Huizhou, and he was more appreciated by Du Hai'an. If the father is still there, which round will the Minister of Punishment get Meng Huizhou on the head!
The three were silent for a long time, and then the eldest Jiang Song said, "It's the foolish brother who is incompetent..."
Seeing that the two younger brothers were trying to persuade them, Jiang Song raised his hand to stop them, "Brother Yu's words are true. My grandfather was a genius and made my Jiang family take off basil into Zhuhu. My father was taught by my grandfather, and his talents were well-known; brother Yu was ashamed. With the teachings of my grandfather and my father, the Meng family decided that I could not support the Jiang family, so I dared to kill my father so recklessly, because they expected that the foolish brother would not be able to avenge his father."
This is the true taste that Jiang Song realized when his father passed away in the past few years. He will only be with mud, embarrassed, and no one will take him seriously. He was ashamed of his ancestors, as well as his father.
Jiang Feng was even more ashamed than the eldest brother, "If the eldest brother is incompetent, the younger brother can only be regarded as a waste."
Jiang Huai followed, "The two brothers said so, the younger brother can only find a mouse hole to get in."
After the three brothers reviewed each other, Jiang Feng clenched his fists, "We have to think about it, we can't let Meng Huizhou ascend!"
"What can be done?" Jiang Song smiled wryly. The Jiang family has been mixed with the Meng family all these years, and the Meng family can go wherever they can. And now that the Jiang family is notorious, which family would risk offending the Meng family to help the Jiang family?
"There is no way out of the sky, there must be a way!" Jiang Erye clenched his fists, "If the right way doesn't work, then go the wrong way!"
"Second brother (second brother) can't mess around!" Jiang Song and Jiang Huai dissuaded in unison, and now the Jiang family has no trouble at all.
Jiang Feng did not go his own way, "Then according to the big brother's opinion, what should we do?"
In the past few months, Jiang Song has been thinking about the current situation, "I have to avenge my father's revenge, and we can't ignore our mother and the children at home. According to the foolish brother, the three brothers should act separately."
Jiang Feng and Jiang Huai stared at Big Brother, waiting for his orders.
Although things are not going well outside, the brothers at home are not distracted. Jiang Song is quite relieved, "Once Meng Huizhou is promoted, he will not allow me to return to the Ministry of Rites. I want to go to the Ministry of Personnel to clear things up and find an errand outside the prefecture and county. , and come back after some merits are made to pave the way for the children."
As long as the eldest brother Ding Youman can re-enter the official position, whether it is outside or in Beijing, it will be a good thing for the Jiang family. Jiang Huai nodded, "The way on the side of the Ministry of Officials, my younger brother also inquired in advance."
"I'll go too." Jiang Feng also felt that eldest brother couldn't be idle at home all the time, and it would be difficult to cheer up after a long time of idleness, which he felt deeply.
Jiang Song nodded, "The family's business and farmland, and the third brother needs to help the mother take care of it."
These things are what he is doing, and they are what he is best at. Jiang Huai immediately handed over, "Yes."
Jiang Feng quickly asked, "Brother, what about me?"
As long as you don't add to the mess, you're helping a lot.
Jiang Song thought so in his heart, but his face was full of solemnly looking at his second brother, "You have more important things. After I leave, my father's great revenge and the safety of my family are all entrusted to you. You have to investigate secretly. The truth about the fire in the Ministry of Punishment will clear up the grievances for my father as soon as possible. But you must not act recklessly, you must know that if you are not careful, you will drag the Jiang family into a doomed place."
This is really the most important event! The hot-blooded Jiang Erye stood up, his chest slapped loudly, "Brother, look at me!"
Jiang Song felt pain for him when he heard it, "Brother Yu knows what you mean, don't knock."
Er Ye Jiang, who was entrusted with an important task for the first time, had a fire in his heart, how could he still feel the pain, and his head was full of thoughts on how he should handle this important event.
Jiang Huai was like a mirror in his heart. It was false that the eldest brother asked the second brother to investigate the case. He was afraid that the second brother would be idle and cause trouble, so it was true that he could find something to do for him. The case of the Punishment's fire was clearly done by the Punishment's own people. They shielded them from top to bottom, and even the emperor dared to fool them. What can the second brother do?
But if the second brother has something to do, Jiang Huai feels a little at ease.
When Second Master Jiang returned to the West Court with great ambition, Jiang Liu had already drank the medicine and fell asleep. Jiang Erye went to see his son who was studying, and then glanced at the closed doors and windows of the eldest daughter, and ordered Uncle Qiu and Jiang Houer to enter the study to discuss important matters.
Uncle Qiu saw him so happy, so he asked with a smile, "Second Master, did you book the shop?"
Jiang Hou'er stubbornly pinned his neck, "Then there's no need to ask, can the second master get out of the way?"
"Huh?" Jiang Erye suddenly returned to his senses, "Master forgot about this!"
Uncle Qiu…
Ginger Monkey…
Then why are you so happy?
Jiang Erye waved his hand, "If the shop can't be opened, it won't open. Master has something important to discuss with you!"
"Yes." Uncle Qiu listened.
"Master, you said." Jiang Hou'er stepped forward to pour tea for Jiang Erye.
Jiang Erye repeated what the eldest brother had just said, and then stared at Uncle Qiu seriously, "Let's start the investigation of the fire case in the Ministry of Punishment!"
Uncle Qiu and the others want to avenge the general's revenge. He wants to avenge his father's revenge. As long as this case is investigated, we will know who ordered Meng Huizhou. This person must be the mastermind of the Suzhou Mo corruption case! They reached the same destination by different paths, and Erye Jiang felt that this matter could be handed over to Uncle Qiu. This old thing is shrewd.
Uncle Qiu didn't look excited at all, "What is the second master going to investigate?"
Jiang Erye tapped the table with his jade-like fingers, and said seriously, "This matter should be considered in the long run."
"Second Master is right, you must think about it in the long run!" Jiang Hou'er echoed, if you are not careful, you may have to get involved.
How long, what plan, how to discuss? Uncle Qiu saw Jiang Erye's expression of "don't ask me I don't know anything", so he offered advice, "This case cannot be investigated clearly, only unannounced."
"Not bad." Jiang Erye nodded.
"So, we still have to open a pharmacy."
Jiang Erye…
Jiang Hou'er also wondered, "Uncle Qiu, what does opening a pharmacy have to do with investigating the case?"
Uncle Qiu said, "The old slave has inquired, that the fire killed the prisoners and burned many officers of the penal department. The burns will leave ugly scars. If our pharmacy can treat the scars, the second master thinks that these people will come. sick?"
Jiang Erye's eyes lit up, "You mean, take advantage of treating their injuries and inquire about the case at that time?"
"Second Master is really smart, one point is all right!" This is a donkey, and if you want him to do things, you have to coax him.
Jiang Er Ye was really coaxed, and immediately stood up and walked out, "This plan is feasible, let's open a pharmacy!"
hasn't finished yet, why are you running again? Uncle Qiu quickly stepped forward and asked, "Where is the second master going?"
"Find a place to open a pharmacy!"
Thanks Chenqing for the reward, good morning everyone.
