After the villain was defeated, she still had power in the government

What the hell, did you think she was a mousetrap?

Fu Yutang rolled his eyes at the two of them, and intuitively felt that they were joking, so he changed the subject again and asked, "In the court, besides my mortal enemy, the King of Xiang, I should have no other enemies, right?"

In response, Yan Zhen laughed.

Qi Shang's expression slightly changed, as if hesitant, "What makes you so confident, Brother Tang?"

Fu Yutang glanced at him, her peach blossom eyes flickered, and she said with great certainty: "With my personal charm!"

She is the emperor's favorite. Apart from the upturned Prince of Xiang, who would be so bold as to touch her?

Hearing this, Yan Zhen sneered and ruthlessly broke her fantasy, "Perhaps the King of Xiang was the only one who took action, but there are countless people who dare not do it and secretly hope for your death. I am not afraid to tell you the truth. After learning that you were missing, except for Qi Shang and me, all the civil and military officials in the court held a banquet to celebrate and congratulate each other privately."

Fu Yutang was stunned.

isn't it?

Is your popularity really that bad?!

What if there is not a single one of her own among the civil and military officials in the court? How can she have the capital to rebel?

"This must be fake." Fu Yutang refused to believe this fact and said angrily, "My popularity cannot be that bad!"

As he was talking, Wang Dagui walked in and reported, "Sir, Yu Shi and his daughter have been settled." Seeing that the light was a little dim, he asked again, "It's getting dark now, sir, do you want a lamp?"

Fu Yutang nodded and told him to do it himself. Then he turned around and continued the previous topic with Yan Qi and the others, "Besides, if no one in the court is on good terms with me, then it means that I am a lone minister, a loyal minister. What right does the King of Xiang have to accuse me of rebellion?!"

Qi Shang said: "Brother Tang, you are really aiming for the goal of being a loyal minister, so you disdain to flatter the whole court. After all, the person you admire most since childhood is the righteous man Tan Xingxian."

Hearing this, Wang Dagui, who was lighting a lamp, paused and subconsciously turned his head to look at Fu Yutang with an inexplicable expression.

Fu Yutang didn't notice, but felt that the name sounded familiar, so he asked Yan Zhen, "Is the Tan Xingxian he mentioned the former owner of the Jixue house you mentioned before?"

"Yes." Yan Zhen nodded slightly and took the initiative to say: "Tan Xingxian was the prime minister of the previous dynasty. He was resourceful, shrewd and capable. He worked hard for the previous dynasty. However, the emperor was incompetent and the officials were corrupt. He had already lost the support of the people. He alone could not reverse the decline. On the day when Taizu rose up and broke through the capital, he chose to sacrifice his life for the country..."

"Emperor Taizu appreciated his loyalty and ordered him to be buried with honor and honored him as a righteous man."

"I see." Fu Yutang nodded in understanding, paused, and then complained: "However, respect is respect, but it doesn't prevent us from giving his house away as a reward."

The most infuriating thing is that it was given to that guy Jixue!

Does he deserve it?

"That's the house of a righteous man! How can a villain like Jixue who plotted against us live there?!" Fu Yutang said angrily, "It's simply a cuckoo occupying the magpie's nest and polluting the place of the righteous man Tan Xingxian!"

"That's right." Wang Dagui echoed indignantly, holding a fire starter.

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Fu Yutang and the other two looking over at him. He quickly restrained his expression and said with a smile, "Sir, the lights are lit."

Fu Yutang said "hmm" softly, retracted his gaze, and motioned Yan Qi and the others to continue. Seeing this, Wang Dagui walked directly to stand behind Fu Yutang, looking at her with his eyes and nose, and waiting on her.

Qi Shang glanced at him, and in a few words explained what happened in the court. Then he changed the subject and asked Fu Yutang, "Brother Tang, you once said that the spies you sent out had a contact code that changed from time to time. Do you remember?"

Fu Yutang looked at him blankly, "I don't know." She had lost her memory.

"...Then how did you and Dagui confirm each other's identities?" Qi Shang asked with a little curiosity.
