"Your Majesty, the time has come." Li Honghe helped Lu Huan wash up and put on the dragon robe, and reminded him carefully.

Lu Huan was busy stroking the seal of good quality hanging on his waistband. After hearing Li Honghe's reminder, he rubbed it reluctantly for a while.

After a moment, he raised his eyes.

His eyes were deep and his gaze was cold, as if they could penetrate a person's soul and hit the other person's heart.

Li Honghe lowered his head slightly, and lowered his posture even more, not daring to look directly at the young emperor.

"Let's go."

"Yes."

Lu Huan walked steadily and swiftly towards the front hall, his movements showing the domineering and confident aura of an emperor who shook the world.

The ministers originally thought that today would be the same as the previous few days and they would have to adjourn the court and go home soon, but they did not expect that Lu Huan would walk straight in as Li Honghe's sharp voice rang out.

His health seemed to have improved, and he looked almost the same as before he got sick.

All the ministers seemed to be frozen in place, standing there in a daze, looking up blankly at the young emperor sitting on the golden dragon throne.

It was the two prime ministers, as well as Grand Tutor Xu and others who reacted the fastest and knelt down towards Lu Huan on the throne.

The solemn voice sounded, and the other ministers quickly reacted, kneeling down and paying homage to him.

Lu Huan glanced at the ministers below the stage with an unfriendly look before asking them to stand up.

"I was ill the past two days and missed the court meeting."

"Left Prime Minister, is there anything important in the court?"

The left prime minister faced Lu Huan's particularly solemn gaze today, walked out of the crowd and stood in the middle, and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, there is no important matter in the court. General Zhong Wei is in charge of Danxia City. Everything is fine. There is no war for the time being."

"It's just that because your majesty is seriously ill and has not recovered for a while, the ministers in the court are quite worried."

Lu Huan nodded, "My health is fine now, all the ministers can rest assured."

After he finished speaking, the Chief Censor walked out of the crowd and said solemnly, "Your Majesty, I have something to report."

Lu Huan leaned forward slightly, "Approved."

"I want to report the head of the Ministry of Justice, Lord Wu, for accepting bribes and concealing evidence for the guilty, which led to the guilty being acquitted in the end!"

The Chief of the Ministry of Justice is an official of the Ministry of Justice, who is mainly responsible for the trial and investigation of some cases. If the criminals and their families want to exonerate them, the first choice is to bribe the Chief of the Ministry of Justice first.

If the head of the Ministry of Justice doesn't work here, he will think of other ways.

"Where is the Minister of Justice?"

"I'm here." Because the matter involved the Ministry of Justice, the Minister of Justice did not dare to delay and immediately walked out of the crowd.

"As the Minister of Justice, have you noticed any injustice in the matter? Do you have anything to defend yourself against?"

The head of the Ministry of Justice did not have to attend court, and as the Minister of Justice was the immediate superior of the head of the Ministry of Justice, Lu Huan was naturally the first person to ask.

"I am afraid that I have not found anything wrong with the chief official, Lord Wu. However, I think that the censor's few words alone cannot prove anything. I am afraid... it cannot directly prove the chief official's guilt."

After hearing this, the Inspector General said, "Your Majesty, I have evidence that can be handed over to the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice for joint review."

Lu Huan also agreed with his suggestion, "In this case, Lord Li will hand over the evidence to the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple."

"Besides, the Inspectorate itself also has the function of judging unjust, false and wrongly convicted cases. Why did it only now discover that the Ministry of Justice was hiding evidence of crimes?"

"Should you also give me an explanation for this matter?"

In fact, Lu Huan knew that the relationships in the court were complicated and intricate. Most of them had been like this since Gao Qinglie was in power, and it was not a matter of one or two days.

He wanted to investigate, but because there was a war on the front line, and then there were constant quarrels over the issue of welcoming the empress and taking concubines, and besides, he had no evidence at the time, so he could only postpone it until now.

The attack was supposed to happen a few days ago, but he fell ill for unknown reasons and had to postpone it until today.

"In this case, I want you to thoroughly investigate! The Ministry of Justice, the Supreme Court, and the Censorate will meet together to investigate not only Wu Rongjing, the head of the Ministry of Justice, but also all suspicious cases. Make sure that no one is left out!

If any unjust, false or wrongful convictions are found, they must be carefully investigated one by one to make sure they are proven true!"

All cases with doubts must be re-examined, and every case of unjust, false and wrongful conviction must be carefully investigated?

This means that the workload will suddenly double, and will inevitably involve many corrupt and law-breaking elements.

In this way, this investigation has affected the interests of those behind the scenes.

During the process, there will definitely be people who try to stop them, cause trouble, and prevent them from completing the task. In this way, they will undoubtedly face huge challenges.

But Lu Huan showed no fear, his eyes were determined, and he was determined to dig out those termites.

"Left Prime Minister."

"The minister is here."

"You are investigating the case for me. I want you to investigate all the corrupt officials in the three departments and find them out."

The three officials investigated the case, and the left prime minister investigated them.

The ministers below the stage, especially those from the three ministries, were in a panic.

Zuo Xiang was an upright, impartial, and incorruptible person who was never afraid of anything.

If he were to assist in the investigation, I'm afraid...

"I have done my duty and will investigate this matter thoroughly to live up to your Majesty's trust!"

Now that things have come to this, Lu Huan is determined to root out all the corrupt officials in the court.

The ministers who had been spreading rumors in the court two days ago did not dare to raise their eyes to look at Lu Huan's expression.

After the court was dismissed, Lu Huan deliberately kept the Grand Tutor Xu Lianyun.

……

In the back hall, Lu Huan changed into his divine white brocade uniform and stood quietly, staring at the orange cat climbing a tree outside the window.

It seemed to have gained some weight, and all it did all day was eat, drink, sleep and play. It looked so heartless, just like someone.

Hearing the noise behind him, Lu Huan silently turned around, walked to the throne beside him and sat down, then waved his hand to signal the eunuchs around him to leave.

Xu Lianyun bowed slightly and said, "Your Majesty, what do you want to tell me?"

Lu Huan: "Teacher, please sit down. It's been a while since we sat down and talked like this."

Xu Lianyun sat down with a bit of restraint. After all, the identity of the person in front of him was different from the past. "Your Majesty has been busy since he ascended the throne. I dare not disturb you."

"By the way, how is your Majesty?"

"Your Majesty was seriously ill two days ago. Eunuch Li said that no one was allowed to visit him. Lord Zhong also cordoned off the inside and outside of the imperial city. With all these things, this old minister is extremely worried and anxious."

Lu Huan smiled slightly: "I'm fine."

"My health has improved a lot now, so you don't have to worry, teacher."

"But..." Lu Huan suddenly paused.

Xu Lianyun looked up in confusion.

"I have something I don't understand, I want to ask the teacher."

"Your Majesty, please speak. I will tell you everything I know." His voice was low and deep, giving people a sense of calmness and reliability.

Lu Huan slowly raised his head and looked at him with calm but deep eyes, which were full of meaning.

Xu Lianyun couldn't help but feel a tightness in his heart, and a bad thought arose in his mind.

At the same time, an inexplicable chill rose up his spine, making him shiver involuntarily.

"I wonder how Sister Wanqing is doing these days?"

Xu Lianyun was stunned. He remembered that Lu Huan didn't pay much attention to his little daughter, but today he suddenly asked about her.

Speaking of his little daughter, he also has a headache.

His little daughter only thinks about the emperor sitting on the throne every day.

In the past, Xu Wanqing relied on the fact that he was Lu Huan's teacher and begged him to go to the general's mansion to propose marriage for her, saying that she wanted to marry Lu Huan.

But he could see that his student did not have Wanqing in her heart, so Xu Lianyun rejected her many times, both openly and secretly.

But she refused to give up and insisted that he propose to her.

Later, he had no choice but to test Lu Huan's feelings for her.

But that time, he had already found the answer, and he told Xu Wanqing after he returned.

But... in order to prevent her from being sad, Xu Lianyun did not tell Xu Wanqing that Lu Huan might have a lover. He only said that Lu Huan had no interest in her and only treated her as his sister, but she just wouldn't give up!
