After the Disabled God of War Became My Concubine Chapter 75
He said with a smile, “And the nerve of that old fool Pang Shao, he even dared to embezzle the construction money of the ancestral temple. The constructed walls are all hollow, the material is also poor. Our men were only mixed in the workforce, and with just a small trick, the palace collapsed from the rain!”
Li Changning heard this, and on the side, he smiled as he chipped in, “That Pang-daren must have lived in the north for a perennial time, he had no idea that the rain in Jiangnan is very heavy, so he dared to be in deficit with the construction. With him constructing like this, even if you don’t act, that ancestral temple will surely not stand for many years.”
Saying this, he and Wei Kai laughed.
Huo Wujiu followed with a nod, and then raised his hand, interrupting Wei Kai’s laughter.
“The work is done, but don’t lower your guard,” he said. “Let them pay attention to Pang Manor’s activities. Pang Shao has suffered losses, he’ll definitely retaliate.”
Wei Kai said with a smile, “Don’t worry, General, this subordinate has made arrangements!”
Huo Wujiu gave a sound of assent, and lifted his eyes to look outside the window.
In the main house of Anyin Hall, people went in and out, all in an orderly manner.
——
Jiang Suizhou also immediately received an intel.
He didn’t expect that such a big change would occur in history. In the historical records, although Southern Jing’s court was corrupted, the ancestral temple collapsing as a result of corruption had never occurred.
However, to Jiang Suizhou, this was a very good thing.
Although Pang Shao was normally unruly, he wouldn’t bring corruption in the presence of the Hou Zhu. He had made a commotion for the Hou Zhu, and hustled money behind the Hou Zhu’s back. Even if he hustled more, he wouldn’t let the Hou Zhu know.
But this time, this embezzlement of his was discovered by the Hou Zhu. In addition, it was because he had razed down the ancestral temple where the Hou Zhu placed the ancestors’ memorial tablets.
As this matter was serious, although Pang Shao didn’t build the ancestral temple, it was entirely under his supervision. As soon as the temple collapsed, the Hou Zhu immediately wanted to send people to investigate, but the ruins were piled up there. Even if Pang Shao was very cunning, he couldn’t confuse black and white* and shirk from responsibility.
*confuse right and wrong
Since the Hou Zhu ascended the throne, this was the first time Pang Shao threw a curve in front of him.
Hou Zhu was enraged with Pang Shao for a long period of time, so much so that several adherents of Pang Shao were deposed and prosecuted. Most importantly, the Hou Zhu originally had complete trust in Pang Shao; small and big matters of the palace were all handed over to him with confidence. Now, cracks appeared in this trust.
This was the most satisfying thing for Jiang Suizhou.
He read the information several times, over and over again, only to think that Heaven’s eyes had opened, having dropped such a heavy rain.
However…
Before putting away the information, his gaze settled among the most unnoticeable section of words.
Among Pang Shao’s adherents who were discharged, there were several officials from the Ministry of Personnel. People were dismissed, so the positions had emptied.
Usually, the Hou Zhu let Pang Shao arrange the transfer of officials. But now, Pang Shao was the one who committed a crime, so the Hou Zhu was clueless.
Hence, he settled with Qi Min’s petition, and promoted several non-Pang party officials to the vacant seats. Some of them were young, novices who had just taken the imperial examination a few years ago.
Jiang Suizhou frowned.
He naturally knew Qi Min held absolutely no selfish intentions, this was entirely for the sake of the Jing Dynasty. But because of this person’s seniority and bad temper, he was rather straightforward in speaking and doing things.
He had always been aggressively against Pang Shao, but because of Pang Shao’s big influence, he had never achieved much. But since the beginning of Chen Ti’s conviction, Pang’s faction had suffered from several attacks in a row. In this stand, Qi Min got the upper hand.
Jiang Suizhou smoothened the edge of the paper.
He knew, to Qi Min, all of the defeats before were smoke bombs. Pang Shao knew he was all talk but no action, so he didn’t regard him as anything special.
But now, Qi Min had encroached on Pang Shao’s interest, becoming the person who seized the opportunity to hit him when he was down.
So, even if Qi Min is a venerable minister to three emperors, Pang Shao can also stir his heart.
In the historical records, Qi Min died unnaturally.
Before the Jing Dynasty was wiped out, his letters colluding with Northern Liang were found in his residence, so he was sentenced to death together with all his relatives. Until the later generations, historians had disputes over whether Qi Min really joined hands with Liang.
If it was true, it would be one thing, but if it was false…
Then this incident would most likely happen in advance because the butterfly flapped its wings.
——
When Jiang Suizhou entered Huo Wujiu’s room at dusk today, Huo Wujiu was reading a book on his bed.
He looked as though he no longer needed Jiang Suizhou to accompany him every day, but both of them seemed to have reached an intriguing agreement, no one brought up this matter.
Instead, it was rather natural to spend some time together every day.
Seeing Jiang Suizhou sitting beside the bed, Huo Wujiu lifted his eyes to look at him. He asked, “Something good happened?”
Jiang Suizhou wore a joyful expression. He faintly smiled as he said, “Yes, actually.”
With this said, he picked up the book next to the bed. He flipped as he said, “Have you heard? The heavy rain these two days razed down the ancestral temple in the northern side of the imperial palace.”
Saying this, he raised his brows, looking at Huo Wujiu.
His joyful look was so obvious that Huo Wujiu couldn’t resist reminding him, “It’s also your family’s ancestral temple. The offerings inside are also your ancestors.”
Jiang Suizhou paid no heed.
“Wasn’t it only halfway built? The memorial tablets hadn’t been moved in yet, right?” he said. “Besides, it was messed up by Pang Shao. If the great ancestors want to blame someone, they can’t blame me for schadenfreude.”
Huo Wujiu paused after hearing what he said.
It was not really Pang Shao’s bunglement. In essence, this incident was his doing.
However, Huo Wujiu even had wantonly beaten the country of the Jiang family; it was but an icing on the cake to bear another revenge in mind about destroying someone’s ancestral temple.
At this particular moment, he heard Jiang Suizhou open his mouth with hints of a smile.
“If it’s like this, you’re someone who’s married to this Prince’s residence, and is also recorded in this Prince’s genealogy. This revenge of destroying the ancestral temple, this Prince has recorded it on Pang Shao’s head for you.”
The author has something to say:
Jiang Suizhou: Since you’re married to our Jiang family, our Jiang family’s ancestors are also yours.
Huo Wujiu: That’s your maternal family, doesn’t count.
Jiang Suizhou: ?
