Chapter 360 Sir, I didn't do anything

Qin Chi received the news not long after he returned home.

Qin Ba was puzzled: "Master, you guessed that the tiger was lured away from the mountain, why don't you pursue the victory?"

"I have gained enough credit, I want to leave some for others."

Qin Chi could take on a lot of the responsibility and take most of the credit, but he was only a junior official in the Dali Temple and could not mobilize so many troops. Although he could use the manpower left to him by his uncle to achieve this, it was not necessary.

The reason is that he wants to take the middle path.

Too much is as bad as too little.

It’s just right to achieve this level now.

There is another reason.

Qin Chi would not openly go against the forces of the former crown prince, as that would result in both sides suffering losses and benefiting others. It would be better for him to erect a shield for himself.

The Jinyiwei is very good, and behind them is Emperor Cheng of Ming.

After a lot of noise in the middle of the night.

The night in the capital returned to silence again, leaving only a few dogs barking in the distance, the stone road stained red with blood, and a few burned houses with sporadic flames remaining.

All this foreshadowed a restless night.

After a good night's sleep, Qin Chi went to court full of energy.

Met a minister in the court.

The looks they gave Qin Chi were complicated.

People say he is an ostentatious young man, but he is not. He acts in a measured way and is neither arrogant nor impatient. However, this unassuming young man often does extremely ostentatious things.

How long has it been since we went to Dali Temple?

He made a mistake and did something terrible again! "The Emperor has arrived!"

The chief eunuch sang loudly in a shrill voice.

The courtiers who were standing in twos and threes when they entered the hall were shocked and immediately took their positions, forming two rows in the blink of an eye.

Wait for Emperor Mingcheng to come out and sit on the dragon throne.

The court officials knelt down and saluted, shouting "Long live the emperor".

The first thing Emperor Ming Cheng did at the morning court today was mention the disturbance in the city last night. For example, the city is still under martial law, and the city gates will be closed for three days. They are searching for and hunting down suspicious persons with all their might.

Qin Chi woke up and went to court. He had only heard Qin Ba's words, and now he knew the consequences.

The incident caused a big uproar and Emperor Mingcheng was very angry.

Under the feet of the emperor, the underground of the capital was almost hollowed out by thieves, and even a large number of unidentified people sneaked in, and a batch of weapons and other prohibited items were seized. This situation looked like someone was going to rebel.

How can I allow others to snore beside my bed! "Investigate! Investigate thoroughly for me. If there is no result within three days, you will bring your heads to me!"

Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty first attacked the military forces of the five cities that were responsible for the security of the capital. A large number of suspicious people entered the city, and they were unaware of it.

Either he was negligent in his duty or he was planted by the other side, so Emperor Ming Cheng dismissed him without mercy and threw him into prison. Then a group of generals including the city gate guards were held accountable.

Qin Chi stood in his position, lowered his head and looked submissive, trying his best to reduce his presence.

Not only him, many officials are like this.

Emperor Chengdi of the Ming Dynasty was completely irrational in his rage. If anyone dared to say something that might bring bad luck to him, being implicated was a minor matter, but losing one's life would be a huge mistake.

As the saying goes, the emperor’s wrath will result in millions of corpses and thousands of miles of blood.

Emperor Mingcheng was angry in the court today, and everyone had to cower in front of the crowd, including Qin Chi himself. Therefore, when Emperor Mingcheng was angry and asked if there was anything to report or if there was nothing to do, the officials who had written the memorials and were ready to submit them all cowered back.

Qin Chi also quietly hid the memorial himself.

Some ministers secretly caught a glimpse of Qin Chi.

I happened to see his little movements and couldn't help but sigh that this is a talented person with a bright future.

"Retreat!"

"Long live our king."

Amid the loud cheers, Emperor Ming Cheng waved his sleeves and left.

Qin Chi waited for the ministers in front of him to stand up first, and then he stood up. Helian Mian, who was standing in the front, glanced at him, hesitated for a moment, and did not go over to talk to him.

Qin Chi's attitude is positive, as always.

When the ministers in front walked out one after another and passed by Qin Chi, for some unknown reason, they would pause in front of him and glance at him intentionally or unintentionally.

This made Qin Chi, who was originally inconspicuous, extremely conspicuous, like a lamp lit in the night.

Qin Chi fell silent upon seeing this.

He suspected that these people did it on purpose, and he had evidence, like they all looked at him just now?

Xia Wei stepped forward and patted Qin Chi on the shoulder, "Good boy, you are worthy of it."

"My Lord, I did nothing."

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Qin Chi looked at Xia Wei innocently, "Why do you all look so weird?"

Xia Wei was stunned at first, then he laughed out loud, "Yes, you didn't do anything, nothing. Let's go for a walk together."

"Then I will respectfully obey your command."

Qin Chi bowed to him in a very formal manner.

When Xia Wei walked in front, Qin Chi immediately followed, half a step behind according to etiquette.

The two of them intentionally or unintentionally kept a distance from the other officials leaving the palace, and deliberately lowered their voices when speaking so that others could not hear clearly even if they wanted to.

In fact, Xia Wei was asking Qin Chi for advice.

Don't say that just because you are a Shangshu, you know everything.

What Xia Wei is most worried about right now is that the Ministry of Revenue just happens to have a sum of money obtained from property confiscations. It is this money that all parties are eyeing, and they are all asking him for it.

Because of these things, he was so worried that his hair turned white.

"Things have their priorities. You've heard about the war in the northwest. Even if we fill the treasury with all the silver, it may not be enough. I know you have a lot of tricks up your sleeve. Can you give me some advice on how to get silver quickly?" Xia Wei looked at Qin Chi expectantly.

He has nowhere else to go.

Qin Chi didn't expect that he came to him for this matter. "Lord Xia thinks too highly of me. Last time, my wife just helped you by accident."

This means that he has no other tricks.

Xia Wei didn't say anything, but his eyes showed disbelief.

Qin Chi could only say seriously: "If I come up with a plan when I get back, I will tell you. I promise I won't hide anything."

"That's good." Xia Wei patted Qin Chi's shoulder again, then strode away.

Qin Chi watched him walk away.

This made Li Huarong, who had just taken office and returned to the cabinet, at a loss for words.

In order not to arouse the suspicion of Emperor Mingcheng, he could not get too close to Qin Chi in public, and could only look after him in secret. However, he did not expect that Qin Chi would make such a big thing just after the Spring Festival.

Don't look at the fact that Emperor Mingcheng is making trouble in the court today.

As the cabinet knew more than what was said in the court, Emperor Mingcheng told several ministers frankly when he was in the cabinet that what happened last night was related to the evil deeds of the late crown prince, and asked them to come up with a plan to make sure to eradicate the remnants of the late crown prince.

He just secretly asked his confidant to pass a message to Qin Chi.

Qin Chi opened the letter and read it, then he understood.

Then burn the letter.
