The terrible incident at Donghua Gate turned the emperor's sadness into anger. Before he could enter the prison, he issued orders one after another: Xuan Jin Yanrui, Xuan Wei Zhixiong, Xuan Su Guangyi, Xuan Yankuan, Xuan Bai Jingning

, Xuan Zhao Changhai, Xuan Liubu Shangshu...

Jin Xiang had just learned about the death of the eldest princess of the Wei Kingdom. He was sitting on the kang, lost in thought. His old servant Zhang Xi'an ran in panting. He didn't enter the room. He called out first, "Master Xiang, palace."

Someone is here, announcing your entry into the palace, saying hurry up, hurry up!"

"What happened?" Jin Xiang shouted and stood up.

The book in Mrs. Min's hand fell to the ground.

"I don't know. The people from the palace are extremely anxious. They say that the emperor is in a hurry to make an announcement. They are extremely anxious. Prime Minister, please hurry up. That little chamberlain's face is green." Although Zhang Xi'an is old, he is still in a hurry.

He is healthy and moves neatly. As he spoke, he took the clothes that the girl hurriedly handed over and put them on Jin Xiang.

"Don't worry, the emperor announced that it's nothing serious. If it's nothing, I won't send people back." Jin Xiang confessed to Mrs. Min, stood up, and walked out while telling Zhang Xi'an, "Don't

Urgent, it's nothing serious. Put your clothes on in the car before you put them on. You don't have to follow me. Go to Prince Qin's Mansion and tell Princess Qin about this. Quietly, go quickly."

"Yes." Zhang Xi'an handed the clothes to the boy, and Jin Xiang went to the main gate. He turned to the corner gate and hurried to the Prince of Qin's Mansion to report the news.

The Changsha Prince's Mansion and Yan's Mansion were not far apart. Jin Xiang's car had not gone very far. The boy lifted the curtain and reported that behind them, it seemed that Prime Minister Yan's car had caught up. After passing another street, he saw Su Xiang again.

car, and Park Jingning on horseback.

Jin Xiang felt reassured. It seemed that the emperor's urgent summons was because of the death of the eldest princess of Wei State.

He was well aware of the relationship between the Emperor and the State of Wei. For the Emperor, the death of the State of Wei was the pain of losing his mother.

Everyone's cars drove very fast and entered the palace. Everyone was almost far behind and rushed to the Qinzheng Hall.

Yan Kuan's pace was a little slower, half a step behind Jin Xiang, and he whispered: "Is nothing wrong? Why are you calling so urgently? The seal hasn't been opened yet."

It's still a holiday, it's the only big holiday of the year. Logically speaking, unless something big happens, the emperor will not disturb the only long holiday of the year for his ministers.

"The Kingdom of Wei is gone." Jin Xiang sighed, "The emperor must be very sad, and the funeral must be grand and grand."

"The Queen Mother..." Yan Kuan's words faded away as soon as he started.

The Emperor and the Queen Mother are not close, and he is more in love with the eldest princess of Wei than mother and son. Everyone who needs to know this knows that it is a bit stupid for him to say this.

Jin Xianxiang nodded politely, looking around from the corner of his eyes, his heart was raised again. All the six ministers who could come were called. Bai Jingning and Zhao Changhai were also there. If there was a discussion about Wei Guo's death, Bai Jing

Ning and Zhao Changhai, a privy envoy and a Duzhi envoy, why are they called here?

There is also the Ministry of Industry. The mausoleum of the Wei State has been repaired a long time ago. Even if it is not repaired, there is no need for the Ministry of Industry...

It seems that at least it is not all about the Wei State. What else could have caused the emperor to summon the ministers in such a hurry at this time?

Prince?

In a few moments, he had already climbed up the steps. Jin Xiang hurriedly gathered his mind, held his breath and concentrated, took a few steps, entered the Qinzheng Hall, knelt down and kowtowed.

The emperor did not, as usual, order him to abstain from the ceremony when Jin Xiang kowtowed for the first time.

Jin Xiang, like everyone else, bowed and bowed, stood up and stood with his hands lowered.

"How is the investigation of Third Brother's case going?" The emperor first looked at Bai Jingning and asked, his voice was extremely unkind.

"Back to your Majesty, the monks of Daci'en Temple are guilty of crimes that cannot be evaded. There are still some details that are being investigated." Bai Jingning leaned forward to answer, his tone was clear and Zhou Zheng, but his words were extremely slippery.

"We are still checking. When are you going to check? Have you found that Third Brother's bones have melted?" The emperor's scolding was a bit arrogant and unreasonable. Without waiting for Bai Jingning to answer, he stared at Zhao Changhai and said: "I I heard that you used the excuse of the early death of your eldest son to put all the blame for your improper moral cultivation, careless management of the family, and the crimes in the fish and meat village on your deceased son? "

Zhao Changhai was stunned by these sudden and heart-wrenching words, and subconsciously fell to his knees, "I don't dare, I..."

"You recommended Xie Yucheng, right?" The emperor ignored Zhao Changhai at all, turned to Su Guangyi, and said in an even more unkind tone, "For the sake of you and the noble concubine, I re-employed him, but what did he do? For his own selfish reasons. , he dared to ignore the country and the people, and provoked chaos in the Jianghuai and Zhejiang provinces. His vicious intentions and despicable methods are unheard of!"

Su Guangyi fell to his knees and kowtowed to the ground. But he didn't say a word. Seeing the emperor like this, it was not the time to talk. It was best not to say anything at this moment, just kowtow and confess.

"Everyone who cares about me should die." Jin Xiang also knelt down, "It's all my fault."

Jin Xiang knelt down, and the others hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to apologize.

The emperor was sitting on the Kang, squinting at the people kneeling on the ground. He seemed to have calmed down a little, "Everyone, get up. You must have read carefully the impeachment papers handed over by King Qin, right?" Are there false claims? Let’s talk about how to deal with them. Also, let’s talk about the cases of Mr. Xiong and Mr. Yang, don’t you mean they have been investigated long ago?”

"Your Majesty, the King of Qin's impeachment report, as I wish, allows the superiors of the Jiangsu, Huaihe and Zhejiang provinces to defend themselves. The Jianghuai, Huaihe and Zhejiang provinces are the country's wealthiest areas, so they should be treated with extreme caution." Before everyone else, Jin Xiang chose the emperor who was most acceptable to him. In words.

The emperor lost his temper and felt much better. After hearing Jin Xiang's words, he snorted and leaned back on the pillow.

Seeing that the emperor relaxed, everyone felt much relieved and their temper was over.

"... As for the two cases of Xiong and Yang, Chen Jiang knows best. Should he call Chen Jiang to talk about it?" Jin Xiang talked about taxation, from Jianghuai to Fujian, until the emperor's face improved, and then Let’s get back to the topic.

"The facts of the two cases of the Xiong family and the Zhao family have been clear for a long time." The emperor looked at Zhao Changhai, who had a very ugly face. "Is it possible that the Zhao family is so rich and oppresses good people and gets illegal gains? Or is it that even though they are rich, they are unkind and spend money with money?" Take it away? I will never tolerate such evil behavior."

Zhao Changhai's face was as white as paper and he knelt on the ground again.

He didn't know why, but the emperor's attitude towards questioning the Zhao family was so clear that he couldn't understand it any more.

"Everyone in Jianghuai, Zhejiang and Zhejiang can defend themselves. I only want to thank Yu Cheng. I want to see how he can shamelessly evade." The emperor looked at Su Guangyi.

Su Guangyi lowered his hands and lowered his head, feeling cold in his heart. It seemed that Xie Yucheng could not save himself.

What's wrong with the emperor? Because of Wei Guo's death? It's human nature to feel sad when Wei Guo dies. Where did such a big temper come from?

"Everyone, please leave." The emperor was very sad and angry that day, and lost his temper again. Now that his anger had dissipated, he was so tired that he was too lazy to say anything more, so he waved his hand impatiently.

From the Jin Xiang to the Six Ministries, everyone left the Qinzheng Hall and the Forbidden City. Everyone was filled with confusion, frustration, and panic. What happened?

"The Yamen is still closed. Why don't you come to my place for a cup of tea? The matter that the emperor just mentioned needs to be discussed quickly and a charter can be negotiated. There is also the eldest princess of Wei State, who has to deal with her death as soon as possible.

Come up with a charter and wait until the emperor asks about it, I'm afraid it won't be good." After leaving the ban, Jin Xiang looked at Wei Xiang and others and said slowly.

"Then don't bother the old prime minister." Wei Xiang agreed immediately. They really need to discuss many things immediately. They can't enter the yamen at the moment. There are rules for when the yamen opens. There are definitely no restaurants and teahouses.

If it suits you, you have to go to a house. Since you want to go, it is most suitable to go to Changsha Prince's House.

Su Guangyi and Yan Kuan nodded.

Jin Xiang looked at Bai Jingning again, "The Third Master's case must also be discussed. If Privy Bai is free..."

"I will obey the Prime Minister's instructions." Before Jin Xiang could finish speaking, Bai Jingning bowed his head and agreed. He respected Jin Xiang from the bottom of his heart for his devotion to the country.

"Everyone, during this extraordinary period, even though the office is not open, I still have to ask you to work hard and sort out the matters at hand." Jin Xiangchong said to the ministers and Zhao Changhai, holding hands.

Everyone hurriedly bowed their heads and agreed. Zhao Changhai bowed his bows in a daze. After staying for a while, he slowly straightened up. His official career may have ended today.

Jiang Yanshi came out of the Crown Prince's Palace and went out of Donghua Gate to get on his horse. Fengye hurried over and got on the horse while panting slightly. He approached Jiang Yanshi and reported in a low voice: "Master, we have roughly found out. The Li family has been divided.

At home, Li Wenlin felt that there was no one to support him in the third house, and he wanted to seek a way forward, so he came to the Crown Prince with his idea."

Maple Leaf felt a little ashamed when he reported it, and swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, "That's right, Li Wenlin feels that his knowledge and talents are very ordinary, and he can't get ahead, so he just wants to be a jester..."

"What?" Jiang Yanshi almost choked.

"Be a jester." Maple Leaf almost wanted to cover his face, "For this, I spent two thousand silver and asked someone to draw the erotic pictures. Who knew... That's it. The erotic pictures were of Li Wenlin and Chen Yi, and

Mrs. Miao from Tianshui Lane came up with the idea."

Jiang Yanshi's mood was indescribable. It took him a long while before he finally breathed out and gritted his teeth and asked, "Is this Li Wenlin married? Does he have a son?"

"Yes, I married a girl from the Shen family. She has a son who is six years old this year and is born to the Shen family. She also has two daughters, both of whom are concubines." Fengye replied hurriedly.

"Since he wants to be a jester!" Jiang Yanshi frowned, "I can't live up to his good intentions. First, cut off the roots of his descendants and cleanse his body before he can be a jester. Go and watch.

, remember, cut him up completely, leaving no trace behind!"

Maple Leaf only felt a cold wind blowing under his crotch, and nodded hurriedly, "Master, don't worry, don't worry, I'll go right away, little one."

The outburst of Qin Zhengdian's temper was reported to Li Xia before the meeting at Changsha Palace was dismissed.

Li Xia listened attentively to Eunuch Huang's report and frowned slightly, "With such a big temper, what is in Li Wenlin's box?"

"Mr. Guo asked someone to check it, saying it was a pornographic picture."

Li Xia snorted, this was really beyond her expectation.

Eunuch Huang raised his head and glanced at her, "Mr. Guo said that Mr. Li Sanye, Chen Yi, and the Miao family who now moved to Tianshui Lane came up with this new style of erotic palace, and spent two thousand taels of silver to hire someone to paint it.

Yes, the third master is very proud of this erotic painting, saying that it will definitely win the favor of the prince. Mr. Guo said that he has found an artist and is looking at the original picture to draw another volume."

Li Xia raised her hand and pressed her forehead. Her mood was beyond words.

"Tell Guo Sheng, there's no need to draw anymore, why are you drawing this?" Li Xia ordered wordlessly.

"Yes." Eunuch Huang agreed calmly.

"No wonder the emperor is so angry." Li Xia rubbed his eyebrows vigorously, feeling annoyed and laughing, laughing and sighing, "There have been so many beauties in the harem for several years, how come there is no one with good news now?"

, is there any reason?”

Li Xia looked at Han Shanggong and asked.

"Before the empress leaves, except for the empress and the emperor, the rest of the food and drink in the palace will be under the sole control of empress Jiang."

Han Shang Palace did not answer Li Xia's questions directly, but talked about various matters in the palace.

"The same goes for the imperial hospital. Except for the empress and the emperor, all the other imperial doctors who hire Ping Anmai are under the single-handed control of empress Jiang.

When the empress was here, because Zhao Hong, who was in charge of the tea in Xuanning Palace, was Chen Zhuyu’s concubine who was now serving the princess’s tea, Zhao Hong was good at tea ceremony, and no one in the palace was better at it than her. Because of this, the tea in the palace was

Above, except for Empress Jiang and the Emperor, the rest are taken care of by Zhao Hong.

Everything is fine with the tea and water. I think it is good news only if there is some good news."
