0801 A sigh
Yu Tiao's return to the capital, although it is not as big a sensation as Shen Chong's return to the capital, but the basic knowledge that should be known is basically known. After all, the relationship between the Yu family and the Shen family is so deep now, and Yu Tiao's crossing of the river to the north is to take over Shen Zhezi's previous position in Liang County. He rushed back to the capital at this time, and there was no need to think that he must be a pioneer in Huainan.
So after learning the news, there was no shortage of Taiwanese ministers in Taichung, and sure enough, the Shen family still found it difficult to change the vulgar style of the Wuzhong Ugly Township, and they didn't scatter eagles if they didn't see rabbits. Shen Chong and Yu Tiao returned to the capital before and after, how could things be so coincidental? It must have been agreed, and only when you get the benefits will you let go.
However, although there is dissatisfaction in my heart, this is always good news, so there is still no shortage of people in the stage who rushed to greet him, wanting to see Yu Tiao first to inquire about what Shen Weizhou had in mind.
However, these people are destined to be disappointed, and Yu Tiao's return to the capital this time did not bring good news from Huainan, and he did not talk too much about Huainan affairs in public or private. It seems that this return to the capital is just a simple debriefing. In fact, it is not simple, and it seems that there are other missions.
Sima Xun is a person, and his life experience can be called bizarre, which has also caused some discussion in the capital earlier. However, the vast majority of people in the station are still very unfamiliar with him. So at first, their focus was not on their people, but they really didn't inquire about any useful information from Yu Tiao, and then they noticed that there was such a person in the team. But when the attention was paid to Sima Xun, many people had doubts in their hearts.
Compared with the small scenery of leaving the capital as a Taiwan envoy before, Sima Xun's return this time can be called down, he was imprisoned as a prisoner. His hands and feet were shackled, his whole body was unkempt, and he was described as withered, and he was not a familiar face compared to the two of them earlier, so no one could even recognize him at first.
It was only because there was such a special existence in the team that it was inevitable that others would ask about it, and Yu Tiao replied casually to reveal his identity: "This one is a prisoner in Huainan Town, named Sima Xun." This time coincided with my return to the capital, so Wei Zhou asked me to escort the prisoners into the capital and hand them over to the judges. ”
Huainan Prisoner?
When the ministers who came to greet Yu Tiao heard this, they couldn't help but be heartbroken. Now is a delicate moment, every move of all parties is not lacking in deep meaning, especially Huainan is the focus of attention nowadays, and naturally there are people who want to interpret the deep meaning behind it. So how could anyone believe Yu Tiao's coincidental words?
Now the top and bottom are anxiously waiting for Huainan to report to the capital, and have made huge concessions for this, but the good news still did not wait, but waited for a prisoner? There must be a deep meaning in this to be touched!
So after everyone dispersed, they all began to inquire about Sima Xun and his affairs. In previous years, he entrusted the name of the sect to the south to Jiankang, but no one cared, and now as a prisoner of the hometown revisited, it ushered in the attention of everyone, and it was really a creation and a man.
There is no impermeable wall in the world, especially in a place like Taicheng, where relationships are tangled and information is highly concentrated. In addition, Sima Xun's experience of entering the capital earlier is not a secret, but no one pays attention to it. Now that it has been tracked down, it will soon be even a copy of the letter from Jingzhou that this person was listed in Jingzhou earlier.
Regarding Sima Xun's identity and background, everyone scoffed. Although there is no too advanced technology to distinguish bloodline problems nowadays, even if it is a verbal identification, it is impossible for a random person to appear and pretend to be a descendant of the clan. After all, the politics of impersonating a clan is much greater than that of an impostor clan.
The vein of Sima Sui, the king of Jinan, has a conclusive and traceable inheritance only limited to his grandsons Sima Tan and Sima Ji's generation, Sima Tan has no children and Sima Ji's heirs. However, because Sima Ji followed Sima Ying, the king of Chengdu, to make trouble, his heirship was not even recognized by Sima Yue, the king of the East China Sea. Emperor Yuan's lineage was originally the Yuefu team, and today's Zongzheng records the lineage of the king of Jinan, even only Sima Tan.
Now there is a person who says that it is Sima Sui's great-great-grandson, whether it is in etiquette or bloodline, how can it be recognized!
Of course, this is not the focus of the ministers at the moment. Whether Sima Xun's clan identity is true or not, they don't care. Regarding his earlier activities in Jiankang City, the only thing that is a little vague is what kind of way he became a servant of the confessor and went to Huainan as a Taiwan envoy.
These secrets may not be traced back to ordinary people in their lifetime, but now all parties in Taicheng are dispatched together, and the twists and turns in the investigation will soon be clear.
Although the servant is only 600 stone under Guangluxun in Taiwan, it is already a Qingxian position, and it is not easy to decide on a candidate for such a position, not only the chief official must be selected, but also the official who is selected by the official must be recommended. When Sima Xun was serving as a servant, Guangluxun happened to be vacant, and the person who chose him was the deputy Taizhong doctor Runan Hemao, and the person who recommended him to the court was Runan Dingman, a subordinate official of the former Situ Mansion.
There is no need to investigate these contents in depth, whether it is a recommendation or a selected letter, it can be found directly in the official documents. The important thing is, why did these two people promote this obviously questionable identity Sima Xun?
The two of them are both from Runan, and the first thing the Taiwanese ministers used their brains was naturally in their hometowns. But the investigation in this regard was really fruitless, and Sima Xun had almost no involvement with these two people, and the personal relationship between the two men was also lacking.
There is nothing difficult in the world, only afraid of those who have a heart. When the Taichens gave up the clue of their hometown, they soon noticed another connection between the two Taichens, that is, Wang Bin of the Langya Wang family!
Wang Bin served as Guangluxun in his early years, and He Mao was selected and appointed by Wang Bin, and they had a good personal relationship with each other. As for Ding Man, he is the husband of the daughter of Wang Bin's stepfamily!
When I found out here, many of the Taichen and his subordinates who were struggling on the front line with the corners of their mouths crooked and their subordinates tired of tracking down were almost moved to tears by their own efforts. It is already clear that this Sima Xun was able to enter the court through Wang Bin's relationship and served as a servant. Even in the end, Sima Xun served as the envoy of Taiwan with the position of servant of the confessor, and Wang Bin's shadow could be found behind it!
As a result, the contents of these investigations were quickly sorted out into the final results and submitted to the desks of all parties in Taicheng. As for what Wang Bin had to do with Sima Xun, why he sent his people across the river, and what kind of crimes he committed in Huainan, it is no longer possible for these specific subordinates to trace down.
In fact, when the subordinates under their hands were tracking down the origin of Sima Xun, the Taifu bigwigs had no shortage of speculations, and they were also paying attention to where Sima Xun was sent to the government office to guess his crimes. However, after Yu Tiao entered the capital, he directly threw that Sima Xun in Stone City and imprisoned him, and he patted his ass and stayed in Tongyuan, waiting for his sister Empress Dowager to summon him, and there was no sign of sending Sima Xun to Yousi.
When the connection between Sima Xun and the Langya Wang clan was found out, the Taifu people smelled a trace of Huainan referring to the Langya Wang clan, and then they inevitably paid more attention to that Sima Xun, and were more curious about what charges Huainan had placed on his person. There is no clue at all about random speculation, and the most direct way is to ask the person directly.
There are many people who have such thoughts, and those who can be so direct are naturally close to them. When Zhuge Hui got this information and hurried to Wang Bin's official office in Tainei, when he arrived at the gate, he saw Cai Mo and Cao Man walking out of Wang Bin's official office together, and after meeting each other, they were both slightly stunned, and after a while, Cao Man smiled bitterly and said: "Shi Rulu is a little sick and has resigned and returned home." ”
"It just so happened that Yu Youxu had not left Taiwan for a long time."
Cai Mo's tone was a little stiff, and he didn't even bother to cover up for Wang Bin, and said directly.
"Sure enough......"
When Zhuge Hui heard this, his face couldn't help but become even more ugly, and the three of them stood in front of Wang Bin's official office, all looking at each other, not knowing what to do next, whether to disperse or chase directly to Wang Bin's mansion to ask what was going on, the atmosphere was delicate and embarrassing for a while.
After standing like this for a moment, Zhuge Hui suddenly looked at Cao Man and asked: "Earlier, Shi Confucianism was appointed as a Huiji, Changze, you used to go with you, I don't know that at that time, Shi Confucianism and Shen Shiju had a deep hatred and old grudge?" ”
When Cao Man heard this, his face changed unnaturally, he was not a fool, of course he understood what kind of psychology Zhuge Hui was asking for. After hearing this question, Cai Mo's eyes next to him also turned sharp, and his eyes looked directly at Cao Man.
"Why did Brother Daoming say this? How can it be...... It will never be ......"
was stared at by the two Dao Mings in front of him, Cao Man couldn't help but be a little incoherent, and waved his hand again and again.
At this time, another person suddenly turned out of the side alley, it was Shi Taishan Yangchen, the head of the Prime Minister's Mansion, who saw these three people standing in front of Wang Bin's official office, and subconsciously shrank back, but Cao Man finally waited for the person who relieved the siege, and was busy beckoning to him.
"Could it be that the three of them are also here to see Brother Shiru? Why don't you enter the office? ”
Seeing that he couldn't dodge, Yang Chen came up hard, laughed dryly, and then asked.
When Cai Mo heard this, he sneered and walked away. As for Zhuge Hui on the side, he was still kind, first explained to Yang Chen that Wang Bin had left Taicheng, and then before Yang Chen spoke, he also said goodbye and left.
The remaining two were hung on the spot, Yang Chen looked at the backs of the two people who left, his brows were already slightly furrowed, he came here on the order of the prime minister, and Wang Cheng also guessed the possibility that Wang Bin had left Taicheng, and also told him that if he met other colleagues, he might as well please go back to the prime minister's mansion. But before he could invite here, the two Dominions had already separated.
After standing silently in place for a moment, Yang Chen looked at Cao Man again, stepped forward and grabbed his wrist and whispered: "Earlier, Brother Confucian lived in Huiji, Changze, you were ......."
When Cao Man heard this, he couldn't help but hide his face with his hands and sighed.
