As soon as this shot was fired, the pre-arranged Anti-Soviet Party moved after hearing the news, and came forward to second the proposal one after another, impeachment impeachment, and accusation.

Before Su Yan could respond, Zhu Helin couldn't bear it any longer, and charged at the case: "Everyone is trying to do something! Even if Qi Jingtang was defeated and defected, he should be punished for the crimes of his Qi clan, so what has it to do with Su Qinghe? All of you Do you have the insight to recognize talents, and have never seen them?"

The emperor was furious, some officials shrank back in fright, and the sound of impeachment immediately died down.

Xie Shiyan expected that the emperor would favor Su Yan, so he came out at this moment, with a peaceful smile on his face, which seemed to be trying to persuade him: "The emperor is wise. This Qi Jingtang is indeed unforgivable, but the fault of 'improper employment' , and we can’t blindly blame the old man Su Ge.”

"My lords," he turned his head and said to all the officials, "it's understandable for anyone who doesn't have a few relatives and relatives to help support and guide along the way after receiving favors and benefits. For example, I made an arrangement a few days ago. A fellow villager is in charge of the nursing home. It’s just that Mr. Su Ge is in a high position and is young and energetic, and he accidentally got a little too big, which made this trick happen. I believe this is definitely not his intention.”

On the surface, Mr. Xie Ge was amiable, but in fact, every sentence was fierce, and an unsatisfied official jumped out and said:

"Arranging his own nursing home and promoting court officials, can this be the same? Why, he regards the Great Ming Dynasty Hall as his backyard?"

"At the beginning when Mr. Su Ge recommended Qi Jingtang to be the admiral of military affairs, the subordinates always objected, thinking that this appointment was too hasty, but what was the use? Who asked Mr. Su Ge to open his mouth, and it was better than the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty."

"Sigh, it is indeed not the country's good fortune that Mr. Su holds power at such a young age, arbitrarily arbitrarily governing the government!"

"It's only been a short time since I entered the cabinet, and I'm accepting bribes and being nepotism. I'm afraid I'm going to sell my official position in the future! Your Majesty, you can't blindly favor Su Shilang and let him dominate the cabinet!"

Looking at the kneeling courtiers, Zhu Helin forced an angry blush from his ashen complexion.At this moment, he finally understood the feeling of his father sitting on the dragon chair every day.

If the emperor's will is a sword, sometimes the light of the sword is unstoppable, but sometimes there are many obstacles when the sword is drawn.You can break through paper, cowhide, wood and even iron, but when those obstacles stand in front of you one after another, no matter how sharp the sword is, there will be times when it will not be able to penetrate Lu Jin at the end of its strength.

At that time, in order to pave the way for him to return to the court, his father broke through many difficulties and obstacles with this sword, and almost bloodbathed half of the court, so that he was not guaranteed to be late in the mouth of these civil officials, and he almost bears the infamy of a tyrant.

Now, in order to protect the most important people, he, Zhu Helin, wants to be a real tyrant once again, and decapitate those officials who impeached Qinghe, those who were dismissed from their posts, and those who beheaded them!

Zhu Helin turned his head to look at Su Yan who had remained silent until now.

Su Yan met the emperor's fierce and resolute gaze head-on, but shook his head at him with a serious expression——to intimidate all the officials by relying on the king's power, He Lin, this is not what I want.

But I want to shield you from the wind and rain, just like... Father.Zhu Helin's eyes were stubborn.

You are not your father, you are you.Su Yan smiled imperceptibly.Remember, you and I made an appointment to stand side by side on the top of the peak to watch the prosperous world.He Lin, you are a wise king, not a tyrant.

The hustle and bustle of the court went away, only a ray of smile remained on Su Yan's lips.The brutal and tyrannical spirit in Zhu Helin's heart slowly calmed down, and he gave him a look of "Don't worry, the young master has his own measure".

Su Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

On the other side, Su Yan's allies, subordinates and "running dogs" couldn't help but stand up.

The first to attack was Chuqiu, the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.He refuted the impeachment officials, but looked at Xie Shiyan: "I would like to ask my lords, where did the saying of 'accepting bribes' come from? Is there any real evidence, or is it bloody? As far as I know, Qi Jingtang came After Beijing, I only paid a visit to one cabinet minister, and that was Mr. Xie Ge, who even offered the panacea of ​​the Penglai alchemist, and Mr. Xie accepted all of them with a smile. I wonder if this counts as bribery?"

Xie Shiyan was poked in the lung tube, and said with anger: "What kind of panacea, it was clearly poisoning me for more than half a month, and I haven't cured him of murdering the minister. You are the bloody mouth!"

Chu Qiu smiled and said: "That's interesting. I have three questions, and I hope you can help me——

"First, Qi Jingtang managed to get on the line of Mr. Xie Ge's protégé, and rushed to visit him. It is said that even if he offered a bribe, he should have given it to Mr. Xie Ge. Why did he involve Su, who is not related to him or not? How old is it?

"Secondly, he came to the capital empty-handed, he only brought a few bottles of medicinal pills that he regarded as precious, and his family background was just ordinary, so where did he get the money to bribe Elder Su Ge?

"Thirdly, when Mr. Su Ge first recommended Qi Jingtang, Jin Yiwei submitted a detailed report on his past achievements to the cabinet, and the emperor and all the adults have also read it. Since the investigation is sufficient in advance, why is there a hasty appointment?"

"Mr. Xie, don't turn all your anger on Mr. Su just because you took the wrong medicine."

This insinuating sentence of "taking the wrong medicine" caused many officials who had heard about the effects of the Rejuvenation Pill to cover their mouths and laugh.

Xie Shiyan was blushed by Chu Yushi, and said angrily: "Such a person who is so ignorant, has a low character, and deceives the king and the country, is it that I can't recommend him?"

Jiang Chunnian also couldn't help but get off the stage: "The imperial court suffered such a big defeat. Su Ge is old and cannot be blamed. If there is no accountability, no, it is not enough to convince the public... Yang Shoufu, you say, say something."

Chief Assistant Yang Ting opened his mouth, hesitated to speak, and finally let out a long sigh.

Qi Jingtang was defeated. Su Yan, who resisted all opinions and was determined to promote him at the beginning, did have to bear joint and several responsibilities, and he could no longer speak for Su Yan on this point.

The "running dogs under the twelve sects" yelled dissatisfiedly, and soon quarreled with the Anti-Soviet Party.

Seeing that the court was rushing all the way to the old fight, Zhu Helin almost smashed down the bronze incense burner at his hand, and yelled at this group of civil servants who could not afford to lose their voices: Your voice is louder than mine, or if you come to be the emperor, I will return to the harem Read my words? !

Su Yan coughed heavily.

The courtiers, who were attacking each other, were stunned for a moment.

Su Yan coughed heavily again.

This time, not only the officials from the two parties, but even the three elders and the emperor sitting on the throne quieted down, and all set their eyes on him.

As the person who stood at the center of this turmoil, Su Yan never said a single word, but his sense of presence overwhelmed all the officials, and no one could ignore him.

In the midst of everyone's attention, Mr. Su Ge opened his mouth: "I want to see people when I live, and I want to see corpses when I die."

"……What's the meaning?"

"Who is this?"

The whispers of the ministers were soon completely suppressed by Su Yan's second sentence.

Su Yan said seriously: "If Qi Jingtang is defeated and dies, or defected to the enemy, it is my fault for employing people improperly. I should take the blame and resign and quit the cabinet."

The courtiers were silent.Zhu Helin stood up abruptly, turned over a stack of notebooks in his robe sleeves, and said sharply: "I won't allow it!"

Su Yan smiled lightly, and said: "On the other hand, if this battle is either a defeat or a victory, then those of you who criticized the cabinet ministers and disturbed the court for no reason should also take the blame and resign, how about it?"

No one said a word.

Xie Shiyan gritted her teeth: "Three ways of military affairs, victory or defeat are obvious, Mr. Su Ge still doesn't give up..."

Su Yan turned a deaf ear and said, "As for Mr. Xie Ge and Mr. Jiang Ge, I don't think you will resign yourself if you are killed, so how about apologizing to me in public and holding the chair pole to welcome me back to Wenyuan Pavilion? "

Jiang Chunnian said angrily: "Th-Things are up to now, you still take advantage of your mouth!"

"Whether it's cheap or not, we'll know when the time comes." Su Yan turned around and cupped his hands at Zhu Helin, "I also ask the emperor to be a witness."

Zhu Helin met his eyes.

He Lin, do you believe me?Su Yan asked with his eyes.

The angry look on Zhu Helin's face gradually faded, he took a deep breath, and said loudly: "Okay!"

Fu Bao, who was standing beside him, flicked his fly whisk: "The Son of Heaven's golden words have never been changed, and all ministers follow orders."

The courtiers knelt down and bowed their heads, no matter how unwilling they were, they had no choice but to answer: "I obey the order!"

Su Yan got up and brushed off the hem of his robe, turned away from the group of officials, and walked step by step to the Jinshui Bridge in front of the square.

Zhu Helin on the throne tightened his heart: "Where are you going?"

As Su Yan walked, he answered in a manly voice: "Die sin—suspension—"

Before the dust of the war situation settled, it was inconvenient for him to go to court again, the most suitable thing was to suspend his duties at home and wait for the final result to decide whether he would go or stay.

Zhu Helin frowned, and shouted: "Retreat!" Yu Jia hurriedly left Fengtianmen.

Yushi Chuqiu quickly caught up and called out, "Qinghe! Qinghe!"

Su Yan paused, turned around and saw Chuqiu Qingya's face showing anxiety and worry, and smiled: "Why did Lingchuan call me?"

Chu Qiu said: "I've been doing my best to clean up your stigma, why did you swear in public, now there is no room for redemption, alas..."

"Why, Lingchuan also thinks that Qi Jingtang's defeat is doomed?"

"I just believe that Mr. Yu Ge's military situation will not be fake."

"Yes." Su Yan sighed, "That's Yu Chezhi!" There is a comment in the history books of "upright and loyal", and his reputation is not inferior to Qi Jingtang's civil servants and Confucian generals.

"But you still made that oath..." Chu Qiu was silent for a moment, then sighed, "Forget it, I just can't see it."

Su Yan smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry. I will stop working for a few days and rest at home. When I turn back, I will still sit in the official sedan chair supported by two cabinet elders and go back to the cabinet to work hard."

Chu Qiu only thought that he was covering up his feelings with jokes, so he comforted him: "As long as the emperor still trusts you, even if you leave the court, there will be a day when you will recover."

Su Yan knew that now no one believed that Qi Jingtang's matter had a turning point, even he himself was not fully sure, he just speculated and gambled heavily.

After the two bid farewell, Su Yan thought of Cui Jinping, who had received [-] court scepters, and hurried across the bridge to leave the Meridian Gate. He saw that the execution had already been completed, and he didn't know where he was taken. Only a few captains of Jinyiwei were packing up tools.

When the captains saw him, they all saluted.

Su Yan asked: "What's wrong with Cui Tongzheng? Didn't anything happen?"

Captain Jia hurriedly replied: "How can it be possible! There is neither 'fighting' nor 'fighting with heart', brothers all know that he is old Su Ge's friend."

Captain Yi added: "Please don't worry, Mr. Su, if we don't even think of this, we won't be picked up by the Commander—"

Captain A coughed dryly, and Captain B immediately shut up.Several captains smirked at Su Yan together.

Su Yan smiled and cupped his hands: "Thank you, brothers."

The captains repeatedly said that they dare not dare, they should.

Su Yan felt that these low-level soldiers were much cuter than some civil servants who had read poetry and books in the court.

The unlovable Mr. Xie Ge was talking to Mr. Jiang Ge in a low voice:

"Su Twelve made an oath in public, is it a bluff, or is there another conspiracy? What kind of medicine is sold in this gourd?"

"I don't care what medicine he sells, it can't save his career."

"That's right. I have some eyeliner among the servants around Yu Chezhi. The news from there also came over last night, confirming that the military situation is correct. Su Twelve is like a grasshopper after autumn. It won't be a few days."

After receiving the imperial cane, Cui Jinping was sent to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice for at least [-] days.After Su Yan knew that his life was safe, he was not in a hurry to visit him for a while, and was going to sit in the carriage driven by Jing Hong and go back to Beizhen Fusi to find Shen Qi.

It was night, on the official road leading from Daming Mansion to the capital, a stage horse delivering the six-hundred-mile urgent Tang newspaper was galloping.Tang Bing on horseback carried the latest playbook in his arms, tied it in the bundle on his back, and wrapped it in a box containing human heads.

That night, Su Xiaojing drove the carriage of the Su Mansion, and left the Ancestral Temple with the tightly wrapped Tianhuang Jade Letter in his arms, but he didn't know that there were three spies following behind him.And Jin Yiwei's commander, Shen Qi, was rushing towards the direction he was rushing towards.

It was night, and Chu Yuan, who was dressed in nocturnal clothes, left the imperial city and returned to Fenghe Bieyuan.More than half an hour later, when he left Fenghe Bieyuan again, he had a note with some jerky and distorted writing on his body.
