Her words were very sharp, and every word she spoke was based on the overall situation. Fu Ping'an was scolded by her and his face turned red with shame. He pointed at her and kept saying "you...you..." for a long time, not knowing how to respond.

Finally, an official who had just been transferred to the capital could not stand it anymore. He stood up and bowed solemnly to Fu Yutang, and said in a deep voice: "Master Fu, I don't know if I should say something..."

"Don't say that, go down." Fu Yutang didn't even look at him, and directly rejected his bullshit. He continued to catch Fu Ping'an and lecture him, vowing to make him die of shame and anger.

The official's face froze. Not only did his long speech fail in the process, but Fu Yutang also ignored him. Annoyance suddenly appeared on his face.

Just as he was about to speak, he was suddenly pulled back by his colleague, who lowered his voice and said, "Are you new here? Look at those adults in the front row. They have worked with Fu Yutang for many years and they dare not easily stand up and refute him. Why are you, a newcomer, standing up and interfering?"

The official was startled and looked in the direction the other party pointed. Not to mention the purple-robed ministers in the front row, even the princes and nobles in the front row looked indifferent. However, when they looked at Fu Ping'an, their eyes were full of obvious sympathy, mixed with a bit of imperceptible admiration.

admire?

"What's going on?" The official was stunned for a moment. Looking at Fu Yutang, who was pointing at Fu Ping'an with one hand on his waist and talking eloquently like he was teaching his son, he couldn't help but blurt out, "He is just a minister of the Ministry of Justice. Why is he so arrogant? He dares to scold court officials in front of the emperor, and no one dares to stand up and say a word?"

The colleague smiled slightly and did not answer his question immediately. Instead, he glanced at the bright red official uniform he was wearing and suddenly introduced himself: "I am Gao Liyan from the Ministry of Revenue. Which of the six ministries are you from?"

He had red lips, white teeth, a festive round face, and a slightly plump figure. He looked very harmless and was extremely polite to the official, so the official couldn't help but let down his guard.

Therefore, without thinking too much, he answered directly: "I am one of the four officials of the Ministry of Personnel, the doctor of the Ministry of Personnel, Shi Boming."

"It's Lord Shi. I've heard a lot about you. Lord Shi, have you just come to Beijing to take up your post?" Gao Liyan asked with a smile.

"Well, I had been working in Nanzhou City before, and just took up my post at the Ministry of Personnel this month." Shi Boming said truthfully.

"Then don't be surprised that Lord Shi has never thought about Lord Fu's reputation." Gao Liyan suddenly realized and quickly glanced around. After making sure that everyone's attention was on Fu Ping'an and Fu Yutang, he whispered, "This Lord Fu is incredible..."

Like pouring beans out of a bamboo tube, Gao Liyan told all of Fu Yutang's great achievements since he entered the court in one breath, and then looked at Fu Ping'an, shook his head and said, "Over the past two or three years, Lord Fu's style of doing things has become much milder, which has given some people the wrong impression that Lord Fu is a sick cat."

Shi Boming was stunned when he heard this. His dissatisfaction with Fu Yutang was swept away. He looked at her with admiration and emotion, and couldn't help muttering, "I didn't expect that Lord Fu is so powerful at such a young age! He is knowledgeable, brave and resourceful, and his eloquence is first-rate. In this way, I can understand why the emperor insisted on letting him serve as prime minister, and the colleague who stood up to refute Lord Fu..."

His gaze paused on Fu Ping'an for a second, and he exclaimed sincerely: "He is so brave indeed!"

"Isn't it?" Gao Liyan said with a smile, "Let's just watch the show quietly and don't get involved. Fu Ping'an is Mr. Fu's father after all. Even if Mr. Fu is angry, he will still be merciful and give him some face. We outsiders are not so lucky."
