"Prince, since you are the prince, you should show your body and uphold the laws of our great Chu. But now you keep saying, begging me to break the law in this Jinluan Palace in front of all the officials of the court. You, the prince, are just being stupid. Are you done? Or are you tired of doing it after decades of doing it?" Just when many courtiers were secretly worried about the prince, Emperor Chu threw out a few words that made everyone's hearts skip a beat.

These words are too serious.

Does the emperor have any plans?

"Father, I dare you, please forgive me for the death penalty of Shen Mu and others!" The prince's expression also changed. However, although he did not protest, he still did not give in, but bowed deeply.

"His Royal Highness, Long Live Your Majesty's golden words, please don't stop me any more." Next to Emperor Chu, Yu Huaien said.

After saying that, Yu Huaien seemed to sigh when he saw that the prince was still lying on the ground, and then shouted to the two warriors in front of the palace who were holding Shen Mu in a daze: "Why are you still standing there? Pull him out and execute him!"

Logically speaking, the prince had not yet stood up, and Emperor Chu had not spoken again. Yu Huaien, the chief steward, should not have been like this.

However, at this juncture, what Emperor Chu said is like this, and if the stalemate between Emperor Chu and the prince continues, there is no telling how much trouble will be caused in the Jinluan Palace today.

"Father, I dare you, I beg your father to show mercy and forgive Shen Mu and others!" After hearing this, the two warriors in front of the palace were about to grab Shen Mu and turn around. Among the ministers, King Yong Xiong Wu came out. , fell to the ground and said.

As King Yong came out of the procession, all the courtiers looked left and right and came out one after another. They all fell to the ground and said in unison: "Please show mercy to your majesty and forgive Shen Mu and others!"

Emperor Chu looked up and saw that in the Jinluan Palace, except for a few veteran ministers such as Chen San and Lin Huaizhang, the rest of the courtiers were kneeling down. Even Ning Buque, who had heard Xie Mingxuan read the remonstrance before, almost burst into rage. The guy also knelt down.

"What? Are you trying to force me into the palace?" Emperor Chu narrowed his eyes and said coldly.

When Chen San heard this, his eyes sharpened and he scanned the officials.

Although the courtiers kneeling on the ground had not seen Chen San's eyes, they felt an inexplicable chill in their hearts and a chill rushing through their bodies.

"I await the death penalty!" All the ministers were frightened and shouted in unison without even daring to raise their heads.

The Jinluan Palace fell into silence again.

The two warriors in front of the palace held Shen Mu and stood there, neither moving forward nor retreating. There were beads of sweat on their foreheads.

After a while, Emperor Chu's voice finally sounded in the ears of the ministers.

Emperor Chu's voice was no longer so cold, but seemed more tired.

"Prime Minister Lin, Shen Mu and others risked their lives to remonstrate this time because of Yang Hao. Prime Minister Lin, since Yang Hao is your grandson, I want to hear your thoughts on this matter." Emperor Chu said.

When the ministers kneeling on the ground heard this, they thought at the same time, Prime Minister Lin, Mr. Lin, at this juncture, you, Mr. Lin, must not doze off again!

Unfortunately, this time, Lin Huaizhang didn't doze off or pretend to be confused.

"Your Majesty, it is a blessing for Your Majesty and Dachu that all Your Highnesses and colleagues have a love for talents. Your Majesty, could you please let Your Highnesses and colleagues stand up first?" Lin Huaizhang said slowly.

When everyone heard this, their hearts were relieved at the same time.

That's what Mr. Lin is like. He usually doesn't speak at court, but once he speaks, he always talks with everyone in a consultative tone, even the Emperor of Chu is no exception.

It was because of his negotiating tone that Emperor Chu never seemed to refuse.

As expected, when Lin Huaizhang said this, the Emperor of Chu was silent for a moment, and then said: "You all can get back on your feet."

After hearing this, everyone kowtowed to Emperor Chu again, then stood up and returned to their respective places. Only Zeng Yiming and Duan Xinqiao were still kneeling in the palace.

After everyone returned to their seats, Lin Huaizhang said calmly: "Your Majesty, Yang Hao is the grandson of the old minister. Being accused like this by Shen Mu and others, the old minister is naturally a little unhappy."

When all the ministers heard this, they were all stunned.

Listening to Mr. Lin's words, could it be that Shen Mu and the other three will not be able to escape this disaster after all today?

Just when everyone was in a daze, Lin Huaizhang looked at Emperor Chu and said slowly: "Your Majesty, I am very old. I have been standing for so long and talking so much, and I am thirsty. Can your Majesty have someone bring you a cup?" Come, let me have a few sips of tea?"

Everyone: "..."

It’s true that you, the boss, have stood for a long time, but who hasn’t stood for a long time? Not only did you stand, you also knelt!

Besides, you, the boss, have only said a few words from beginning to end, and are you already thirsty? Censor Zuodu’s throat was broken by shouting, why didn’t you ask for a cup of tea?

When Emperor Chu heard this, he twitched the corners of his mouth imperceptibly and nodded towards Yu Huaien.

Yu Huaien poured a cup of tea with his own hands, held the tea cup, walked down the imperial steps, walked to Lin Huaizhang, and said: "Please have some tea, Prime Minister Lin."

When Lin Huaizhang took the tea cup, the eyes of the two old foxes quickly touched each other, with smiles hidden in their eyes.

Lin Huaizhang took the tea cup, opened the lid, and began to blow slowly and gently.

Everyone was so anxious when they saw it!

When did this happen? Where is this place?

You, the boss, think you are at home, so unhurriedly!

Everyone was anxious, but Lin Huaizhang was not anxious at all. He continued to blow the tea slowly and gently flick the tea leaves with the cup lid.

Seeing Lin Huaizhang slowly making tea, everyone suddenly felt thirsty.

It's really hard to talk about the morning meeting.

In the shortest time, the head official of the palace will shout an opening statement. If all the ministers have no original performance, the head official of the palace will shout a dismissal, and everyone can disperse in a hurry and go back to their homes to do whatever they are supposed to do.

However, it is not uncommon for the court meeting to last until noon when there is some quarrel.

Therefore, in order to prevent the court meeting from being too long, all the ministers did not dare to eat or drink anything before going to court. Some of them had weak stomachs, and when they knew that there would be a court meeting the next day, they began to abstain from food the night before. There is everything to eat.

the reason is simple.

If you come to court after having eaten and drank enough, what should you do if the court meeting lasts for a long time and you have an emergency?

You can't stand up in the middle of a discussion with the emperor and ministers, ask for leave, go out and squat in a hut to show your respects, right?

Moreover, in court meetings, most of the time, everyone doesn’t know what others will say. If they miss something that concerns them and slip up at a critical moment, disaster may fall from the sky.

Such a big event happened in Wangjiang Tower yesterday, and today is the day of the court meeting. Everyone has expected that this matter will probably be discussed at the court meeting, and it will probably be discussed for a long time.

Therefore, many ministers either had a few bites last night, or didn't eat at all. Before going to court today, most of them didn't eat anything, not even a drink of water, just in case.

At this moment, watching Lin Huaizhang tinkering with tea, everyone felt more and more thirsty.

After tinkering for a while, Lin Huaizhang finally brought the tea cup to his mouth and took a gentle sip.

As if he was savoring it in his mouth, Lin Huaizhang smacked his lips and praised: "Good tea!"

It's okay that Lin Huaizhang didn't smack his lips, but when he smacked his lips, everyone felt more and more thirsty, and many people couldn't help but growl in their throats.

After taking a sip, Lin Huaizhang did not drink any more, but lowered the tea cup and held it in his hand.

Everyone was stunned again.

Is this the end?

You sir, have been tinkering for a long time just for this one bite?

"Your Majesty, this tea is really delicious. I shamelessly asked, could your Majesty give me some as a reward?" Lin Huaizhang said.

Everyone: "..."

Emperor Chu's lips twitched slightly and he said, "Let Lao Yu pack some for you later."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Lin Huaizhang cupped his hand, but forgot that he was still holding a teacup in his hand, and almost dropped the teacup to the ground.

Yu Huaien, with quick eyesight and quick hands, caught the teacup, but the tea had already been spilled.

"Mr. Lin, would you like another drink?" Yu Huaien asked.

Everyone: "..."

But don’t come here again! If you have another drink, everyone will die of panic!

Fortunately, Lin Huaizhang did not ask for another drink.

After thanking Yu Huaien, Lin Huaizhang said to Emperor Chu: "Your Majesty, what did the old minister just say?"

Everyone: "..."

Yu Huaien was holding the tea cup and had just turned around. He was about to go back. Hearing this, he turned around, approached Lin Huaizhang, and whispered: "Prime Minister Lin, you just said that Prince Yang was accused by Shen Mu and others, and you are not happy in your heart."

.”

Lin Huaizhang said oh, thanked Yu Huaien, and said to the Emperor of Chu: "Your Majesty, although I am not happy in my heart, Shen Mu and others are also loyal to the emperor and the country."

When all the ministers heard this, they were all stunned again.

Listening to Mr. Lin's tone, is he planning to intercede for Shen Mu just like everyone else?

"Xiang Lin, do you also think that I should forgive Shen Mu and others?" Emperor Chu said.

"Your Majesty, the dignity of the law cannot be desecrated. The majesty of the imperial city cannot be provoked. Since Shen Mu and others have violated the law, they should be punished." Lin Huaizhang said slowly.

When everyone heard this, they were stunned again.

What does Mr. Lin mean by going around and around?

"It seems that Mr. Lin still has more to say?" Emperor Chu said.

"Your Majesty is wise!" Lin Huaizhang praised, and then said: "Your Majesty, since the actions of Shen Mu and others were caused by what happened yesterday, my idea is, can I put the matter of Shen Mu and others aside first?

Let’s talk about it after we figure out the cause and effect of yesterday’s incident?”

After everyone heard this, they finally understood what the old man was going to do.

This old man has been playing tricks for a long time, and now he is going round and round again. He is still trying to find ways to exonerate Yang Hao!

Among the ministers, Xie Mingxuan and others were immediately ready to make a move.

There is no way. Today's matter seems to be a certainty. However, Mr. Lin, although he has dozed off more and more in court meetings in recent years, as long as he makes a sound, it seems that

There is nothing left unfinished.

Didn’t you see, even with Qiu Donghan, the right prime minister who is also the head of the hundred officials, how many times have he won against him in the court in these years?
