At the beginning, there is smoke coming out of the ancestral grave, and the woman is busy in the imp

Xie Zhushu rolled his eyes at him, then quickened his pace to catch up with Xie Yuheng and the others in front.

Although they entered the imperial city with laughter and joking all the way, everyone felt extremely heavy-hearted.

Walking on Chengtianmen Street, Xie Yuheng caught a glimpse of Xie Zhushu out of the corner of his eye and raised his sleeves to wipe the sweat off his face from time to time.

She said aloud, "If you are really nervous, you don't have to go."

The seventh-rank Censor-in-Chief was a permanent official together with the six ministries and could meet the emperor every day.

However, only officials above the sixth rank in Beijing could attend the small court meetings.

If there is a small court meeting, the regular officials will only attend when they have something to do.

Xie Zhushu shook his head, his voice trembling slightly, "I am also a child of the Xie family. Actually, I am Yuheng's cousin."

"Yuheng is not afraid, so why should I, as his elder brother, be afraid?"

Xie Zhuqing reached out and patted his shoulder.

"If your voice doesn't shake when you speak, your credibility is still very high."

Xie Zhushu's face suddenly fell, "Cousin, is there anyone who hits his brother like this?"

"Yes, doesn't Qingzhi often attack Mingcheng? He is his brother."

Xie Zhuqing raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Xie Mingli.

Xie Mingli didn't feel ashamed at all, and just said gently: "Let's go. If you dawdle any longer, you'll be late."

Only then did everyone calm down and continue heading towards the palace.

Just as Xie Zhushu said, if you count carefully, none of them is older than Xie Yuheng.

They are also descendants of the Xie family and have the responsibility to redress the injustice done to their ancestor Xie Qian.

Among the group of people, there were only young people, but not the two elders.

It was because the two old guys had a fight yesterday and the light was not very good at night so I couldn’t see clearly.

This morning, I woke up and found that each of us...

Chui Gong Hall.

Soon after all the ministers arrived and found their seats, Chu Heng walked out from the back of the hall.

However, he had just sat down and looked down.

I saw that one of the two Shangshu, Si and Yang, had a short beard and the other had a cut on his lips.

This is... assassinated by thieves? ?

After the greeting, Chu Heng was about to ask, but Chi Guanxu came out holding a hu tablet and said loudly:

"Your humble servant, I have something important to report!"

Chu Heng, who was interrupted, stared at Chi Guanxu unhappily, and waved his hand after a long while.

Upon seeing this, the eunuch immediately translated in a hoarse voice: "Your Majesty, please allow it..."

Chi Guanxu said in a deep voice: "Yesterday at the literary banquet at the Marquis of Jiangling's mansion, my son discovered something extraordinary."

On the high platform, Chu Heng tapped the handle of the dragon throne with his fingers intermittently.

Chi Guanxu, this bastard.

It’s better not to say that documents of treason and treason were found in the Jiangling Marquis’ Mansion.

Otherwise, wait until the Goryeo frontline soldiers are transferred to the Liangzhou border.

The first thing to do is to twist the dog's head off.

"...In the central hall of the Marquis's mansion, we found the tablet of the eunuch Xie Ping'an from the last years of the previous dynasty."

"As the saying goes, he is the ancestor of the Xie family!"

As soon as this statement came out, the whole palace was in an uproar.

The military officer was the first to jump out and refute: "How can a eunuch have descendants? Sir Chi, you should frame someone who is reliable."

Another military officer immediately responded, "That's right, how can a eunuch have descendants? What if they have the same name and surname?"

"Besides, there are many people with the same name in the world."

"In my hometown village, there are three people named Li Yong!"

When the Minister of Rites Ye Zhongliang heard what the military officers said, his eyes turned black.

Whoever doubts it will give evidence.

Such a rebuttal will only play into others' hands.

Sure enough, Chi Guanxu sighed helplessly.

"Eunuch, it's not like they were born eunuchs."

The military officers were choked by his words and looked at each other in astonishment.

My hands are itching. I really want to hit Chi Guanxu with a stick and send him to lie on the stick.

What the hell!

Even if Marquis Jiangling is really a descendant of Xie Ping'an, that is more than several generations ago.

The family property of four generations of his father was confiscated, and it was not even a turn for Xie Ping'an in Xudu.

Not only was the civil servant speechless, even Chu Heng was speechless as well.

If he didn't know the character of the military officers clearly, he would have thought that they were all bribed by the Chi family.

But why doesn’t his little lucky star speak?

Could it be that he is really the descendant of Xie Ping'an?

Chu Heng raised his eyes and looked towards Xie Yuheng's position.

But Xie Yuheng lowered her eyes obediently and didn't acknowledge his gaze at all.

Chu Heng had no choice but to go see Si Yuandao.

Well, did the master and disciple not sleep well yesterday? Are they both dozing off now?

The only one, Yang Chengwu, who accidentally made eye contact with him, also lowered his head in an instant.

Chu Heng:? ?

He narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling that these three people were setting a trap for Chi Guanxu.

Okay, I've got a little secret to hide from him as the emperor, so I'm setting a trap for him without him involved.

Seeing that the emperor did not speak, Chi Guanxu bowed again and said solemnly: "The eunuch of the previous dynasty thanked you for your safety and threw you into the Western Regions Protectorate."

"It is recorded in history books and said by the people, and it can all be verified."

"How can such a descendant of a traitor be of any use?"

"Your Majesty, be careful that Marquis Jiangling rebels against Liang and restores Jiang!"

Among the six departments, Ye Zhongliang, who had studied history books most deeply, also remembered that something was wrong.

He stepped out and said, "Your Majesty, thank you for being safe..."

Unexpectedly, a voice interrupted what he was about to say.

"When the Ministry of Justice makes judgments, it is important to have both human and physical evidence."

"Now, Lord Chi can convict someone just by saying something?"

Xie Yuheng stood beside the team holding an ivory tablet and glanced at Chi Guanxu behind him.

He just walked to the middle aisle and bowed to the emperor.

Chi Guanxu snorted coldly, a hint of uncertainty flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by viciousness.

"Whether it is true or not, Your Majesty can find out by sending someone to the Marquis of Jiangling's mansion to investigate!"

Xie Yuheng stroked the ivory tablet with his fingertips, his eyes full of thought.

There are quite a few flaws in this game.

Although Fang Fengxu's case was like a dagger hanging around Chi Guanxu's neck.

But there was no sign of panic in Chi Guanxu's words. Why?

Chu Heng looked at Xie Yuheng and asked kindly, "What do you think, Mr. Xie?"

"Your Majesty, I have acted upright and have a clear conscience. I will follow your Majesty and send someone to search."

The conversation between the emperor and his minister made the recorder's mouth twitch.

Translated, it means, 'My dear, what do you think? He wants me to send someone to search your house?'

The minister replied: "You can search it, Your Majesty."

This is something that can be discussed and negotiated. Those who don't know would think that the emperor and his subjects are reversed...

Chu Heng understood in his heart that this was indeed a big trap set for Chi Guanxu!

Then, he called a few guards.

He also selected two officials from each of the three divisions to search for the "tablet of thanks for peace" mentioned by Chi Guanxu.

The hall fell into silence for a moment, and Ye Zhongliang spoke again: "Your Majesty, thank you Ping..."

Yang Chengwu stepped out and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to report!"

Chu Heng raised his hand, motioning for Yang Chengwu to speak.

After reporting on the routine Ministry of Works matters.

Chu Heng's gaze fell on the wound on Yang Chengwu's lips.

Concerned, he asked, "Yang Qing, how did you get this injury?"
