Chapter 109 There’s Someone Behind Them

After drinking the tripe soup, Sheng Shaoqing suddenly remembered that the name Dr. Li was familiar, and asked smoothly, "Is this soup prescribed by Dr. Li? Are you talking about the Dr. Li who treated Shen Gui?"

Cui Yun nodded and said, "The princess said that Shen Gui was poisoned by Helian Qi poison, but only Dr. Li could cure the poison. This shows that this person has some abilities, so Wei Chen asked him to prescribe these dietary supplements for the Queen Mother. Fangzi."

"He was the one who came back to treat Zhang Qing last time?"

"yes."

Sheng Shaoqing heard this and didn't ask any more questions. He lost his appetite after eating another mouthful of cabbage. After eating and drinking enough, he felt sleepy, so he went to find Zhou's public meeting.

Before dawn on the second day, Sheng Shaoqing suddenly opened her eyes, rubbed her sore neck, and pressed her sore waist. She saw that it was not yet time to go to court, and the palace maid who was keeping watch for her was still leaning against her. Sheng Shaoqing was dozing off by the couch, and she gently lifted up the warm quilt, turned over and got down on the couch.

Sheng Shaoqing tried hard to imitate Cui Yun's way of dressing her, and then she put on three layers of clothes, and then took off the cloak on the shelf and put it on her body. Only then did Sheng Shaoqing dare to go out the door.

Opening the door, you can still vaguely see the shadows of stars on the horizon in the distance. The calm lake in the courtyard is glowing with a faint light. The plum blossoms that were transplanted by the lake just now are showing signs of budding. Occasionally, there are sounds in the ears. There were a few crickets chirping, and just when Sheng Shaoqing was about to lift his legs to go out, he was stunned by a quick "Queen Mother!"

"Queen Mother, why are you awake?!"

"Chunxi too! Why didn't you come and tell me when you woke up?"

"My maid, go and call Miss Cui now!"

The silence of a moment ago disappeared, and the noise of the new day started in advance in Yongguang Hall.

Sheng Shaoqing's waking up was like throwing a stone into the calm lake. Starting from the inner hall, then to the east wing, west wing, outer courtyard, and small kitchen, the signal slowly passed through, and the people who received the signal also There was activity in an instant, until the entire Yongguang Hall was brightly lit.

After a while, Cui Yun appeared in front of Sheng Shaoqing.

And the night watch maid named Chunxi also knelt behind her, waiting to be punished.

Cui Yun saw Sheng Shaoqing's helpless expression and the slightly messy clothes on her body, and suddenly understood something. She asked Chunxi to retreat and collect the punishment, and then asked Sheng Shaoqing to go back and change her clothes again.

"Don't blame her, I didn't make any noise on purpose."

Chunxi's dead eyes suddenly lit up when she heard this, and she kowtowed repeatedly to thank her.

Sheng Shaoqing followed Cui Yun back to the inner room. As soon as Cui Yun entered the door, he couldn't help laughing and said, "The Queen Mother is really wearing this dress."

“Unique.”

After Cui Yun smiled, he noticed that the Queen Mother looked wrong. He was afraid that he might have offended the Queen Mother, so he turned to lower his voice and said, "The Queen Mother is busy with government affairs on weekdays and does not take care of these small things. It is normal for her to become unfamiliar with her over time. There is no need for the Queen Mother to be upset."

"You," Sheng Shaoqing sighed, "don't put a high hat on me."

Don’t you know whether she is busy or not?

But it was really difficult to put on the three layers of clothes here. There were so many straps. She didn't know which ones went with which ones. She could only tie them on based on her memory and her own groping. It looks like a dress.

Seeing Cui Yun struggling to untie her own belt and fastening the belts that looked like a mess in front of her with familiarity, Sheng Shaoqing cried silently in her heart: There are specialties in the profession, but she admits that she is not good at it.

"I didn't want to disturb you guys from taking a rest and enjoying the scenery by yourself, but unexpectedly, I was discovered by Forsythia."

Cui Yun comforted Sheng Shaoqing and said, "We will go to court in half an hour. We should get up at this time on weekdays. However, the sky is still dark. I wonder what kind of scenery the Queen Mother wants to enjoy?"

Sheng Shaoqing shook her head. She didn't know what she wanted to reward. Maybe she wanted to see how this sky was different from the previous sky?

"The minister has a suggestion. If today's court meeting ends early, go to the Danfeng Tower in the palace before dawn so that the Queen Mother can enjoy the sunrise."

Sheng Shaoqing couldn't help but laugh, "What's so good about the sunrise?"

Every day after going to court and taking Yuan Che back to the inner court from the Qinzheng Palace, it was mostly at sunrise. In addition to feeling the sudden light and the gradually rising temperature, how could the sunrise in this palace be with her on Mount Tai?

Compared to seeing the sunrise?

Cui Jun explained while calling someone to come and dress up the Queen Mother, "Danfeng Tower is located in the east of the imperial city, and the east side of the capital is low, and few people live in the east side, so you can see the sunrise or the sun very clearly.

The scenery is extremely spectacular at sunset!”

Sheng Shaoqing now became somewhat interested, thinking that if the court meeting ended early, he would go and watch the sunrise in the palace.

It just so happens that she has been here for so long, and she has mostly lived the same three-to-one life as before, and she has never visited this huge palace.

Just as Sheng Shaoqing was preparing to say the routine "If you have something to do, if you have nothing to do," with great excitement and anticipation, a round figure suddenly stood up, shattering her fantasy of getting off work early to enjoy the scenery.

.

"Queen Mother, here is my memorial!"

"I want to impeach He Shizhao, a member of the civil service department, for engaging in corruption, abusing power for personal gain, and even influencing officials' promotions!"

As soon as Sheng Shaoqing heard this rough voice with a hint of breathiness, he felt that it sounded familiar. After a closer look, the speaker was indeed Mr. Hu from the Yushitai.

If we talk about Mr. Hu's heroic deeds, we can't finish them for three days and three nights. This can be seen from the nickname "Hu Yitan" given to Mr. Hu by everyone.

Hu Yitan's name came from Mr. Hu's ongoing impeachment.

Since he has always taken the lead in impeaching others, impeaching no less than fifty officials within one month, impeaching them in person at work and writing memorials after get off work, he deservedly accepted this title with peace of mind, and was complacent and elated about it. He was complacent, and because everyone called him by this nickname, Master Hu's real name became unknown over time, so Sheng Shaoqing only remembered his surname Hu and his nickname Hu Yitan.

Sheng Shaoqing remembered that the Feng family had a fire a few days ago, and he followed suit for a long time.

Mr. Hu's family is thousands of miles away from the Feng family, but this fire is like burning on his eyebrows. He is very angry about this, and has been grabbing Feng Quan and Feng Jin to impeach him frantically. Even if Feng Jin stepped on

Even if an ant dies, Mr. Hu will still accuse him of being unmerciful and unregenerate. His skills are definitely beyond the reach of modern keyboard warriors.

But no matter how many people Mr. Hu plays and how harshly he scolds, he can still sit firmly in the position of censor.

In addition to his strong background, there is another point. The official position of the censor is to advise the emperor and supervise the officials. I heard that in order to be the censor, he did not hesitate to quarrel with his family who wanted to arrange a real job for him.

No, it’s just so that I can open the wheat as much as I want.

Can you curse others casually when you are in power?

cannot.

But the censor can, so he would rather not have real power but firmly choose to be the censor.

Therefore, no matter how unhappy Sheng Shaoqing was, she could only listen to what he had to say. There was only one thing Sheng Shaoqing really wanted to ask him: why didn't he come out earlier and had to wait until the end to suddenly come out?!

The defendant He Shizhao suddenly heard that Hu Yitan was going to impeach him. After hearing the first half of the sentence, he felt disdainful, but after hearing the second half, his face turned green.

Corruption and bribery to influence the promotion of officials is a serious crime.

"Master Hu! If you want to impeach me, do you have any evidence?"

Hu Yidan shook his fat body and said proudly, "Master He, I have three questions now. If you can answer them, you will be considered as the one who falsely accused you today!"

He Shizhao frowned, feeling that something was wrong. Fatty Hu had always made random announcements, which made him famous as Hu Yitan. When had he ever had such confidence and confidence?!

"Sir He, this year the Ministry of War has recruited five people. Why is it that Li Lingjiang, who is number one in the school, is not the only one?"

"Master He, Li Lingjiang clearly received the supplementary recruitment notice before next year, why did he lose his official position after the year?"

"Master He, I heard that a few days ago, there were suddenly many priceless gifts in your house. I'm afraid you can't afford them with your salary?!"

Hu Yitan's tone became more and more urgent, and He Shizhao broke into a cold sweat before he could finish.

After Master Hu asked, he waited for He Shizhao's reply. He glanced proudly at He Shizhao who was kneeling there shaking like chaff. He thought that no one could challenge his status as Hu Yitan in the world now. Maybe Sheng Yushi "

The title of "Iron-faced Censor" can be worn by another person!

You have to go to Xianyunlou to have a good drink tonight!

He Shizhao knelt there and didn't know what to do. He wanted to tell the truth and say that he was just following the instructions. Then he thought about it, wouldn't he betray Ji Shilang by saying this?

But Ji Shilang was not kind to him, not to mention that Ji Shilang was from the same Ji family as Ji Cheng, who could he offend?

However, he was asked to bear the blame alone. He didn't want to bear it, and he couldn't afford it!

"Your Majesty, may I answer this question on behalf of He Yuanwailang?"

To He Shizhao, Ji Lingzhang's words were like a dry land that has been replaced by sweet rain after a long drought. He Shizhao shouted in his heart: "Shilang Ji, please save me! Shilang Ji, please save me!"

Sheng Shaoqing, who was watching his psychological activities on the high platform, was speechless for a while. If the upgraded system should be so vivid, it actually drew a Q version of He Shizhao holding Ji Lingzhang's thigh and shaking and crying.

It's rare for Hu Yitan to be so confident. No matter how weak he was when facing Ji Shilang in the past, he still wants to challenge Ji Shilang today!

Who allowed him to have solid evidence in his hands!

"Shilang Ji is so eager to protect me. This feeling is really touching, but please answer for him. I'm afraid this is a cover-up, right?!"

Ji Lingzhang glanced at Hu Yitan, and he was also thinking in his heart that Mr. Hu had taken the wrong medicine today, and why did he explode at the first moment?

"Why don't you, Mr. Hu, listen to my explanation first before making any judgment?"

Hu Yitan shook his head, "I am impeaching Lord He Shizhao and not Lord Ji Lingzhang, so why should Lord Ji replace him?!"

Ji Lingzhang was about to speak, but Sheng Shaoqing interrupted him and said, "Mr. Hu's words are reasonable. Otherwise, let Mr. He explain himself. Only the person involved knows the inside story best."

"Queen Mother."

Ji Lingzhang glanced at Sheng Shaoqing in embarrassment and thought that the Queen Mother had lost her memory. Wasn't the Queen Mother's order not to allow Li Lingjiang to join the Ministry of War sent to the Ministry of Personnel?

However, the Queen Mother ordered that the news should not be spread outside, so they did some secret operation. However, they did not expect that Fatty Hu would catch on to the secret and expose it at the court meeting.

Judging from the Queen Mother's intention, does she not intend to admit her fault?

"However, what I am more concerned about is the third question asked by Mr. Hu. Why don't Mr. He give me a good explanation?"

Um?

He Shizhao suddenly raised his head, looking at the unpredictable look on the Queen Mother's face and the incomprehensible expression on Ji Shilang's expression, he resolutely chose the former between self-protection and taking the blame for his boss.

"It's Shi Lang Ji's intention not to allow Mr. Li to join the Ministry of War. That's why."

Sheng Shaoqing looked at Ji Lingzhang's suddenly pale face and thought to himself that the story was getting more and more exciting now. Isn't this much prettier than the sunrise?

"you!"

Ji Lingzhang knelt down and said, "I accept the previous item!"

"I said that I bribed Mr. He, but I don't admit it!"

Hu Yitan never thought that he could involve Ji Lingzhang by playing He Shizhao, and he was secretly delighted. The masked man didn't say that he could drag Ji Lingzhang into the water that day?!

He Shizhao said anxiously, "If it hadn't been sent by you, my lord, how could I dare to accept it?"

Ji Lingzhang gritted his teeth and said, "According to the rules, it is your duty, why should I bribe you?!"

"What's more, do you have any evidence to prove that it was me who sent it?!"

He Shizhao choked and calmed down before speaking, "Those gift boxes have the emblem of the Ji family on them, and they were delivered personally by your slaves. How dare you make false accusations against others if you have no proof or proof?"

?”

After saying that, He Shizhao glanced at Hu Yitan unintentionally, and Hu Yitan's face turned red with shame. What is an empty accusation? Even if it was true in the past, it is definitely not the case this time!

Ji Lingzhang asked in a deep voice, "What's the name of that slave? When did he go to your house? Did he get a greeting card and did he bring my handwritten letter with him?"

He Shizhao:

"I heard that people behind him call him Ji Song. About five days ago, he brought a box of rare antiques to my house. He said that you were considerate of me and saw that I had worked hard this year, so you gave me this gift.

These things are given as rewards. He also said that these things only belong to me, so I should keep quiet."

Ji Lingzhang's tutor made him endure it for a long time, but he still couldn't help rolling his eyes at this subordinate whose brain circuit was simpler than Zhidao and said, "How did I get a domestic slave like Ji Song in my house?!"

"Why would I give you rare antiques?!"

He Shizhao was instantly horrified when he heard this. Ji Shilang wouldn't want to blame everything on himself in order to escape guilt, right?!!

"The Queen Mother clearly knows that there is indeed no such person in the palace!"

Seeing that He Shizhao looked wrong, Ji Lingzhang was afraid that he was going astray, so he continued, "I won't send anything to Master He. I'm afraid there is something fishy about this matter!"

Only then did He Shizhao realize that Ji Shilang was not abandoning him. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The Queen Mother knows this clearly. I am afraid that I have been deceived!"

"I thought it was a gift from Lord Ji and I didn't dare to accept it, so I accepted it."

"Someone must be setting up a trap!"

Before He Shizhao finished speaking, Hu Yitan sarcastically said, "Master Ji and Master He are really good at singing the double act. I am really willing to be the inferior officer."

"you!"

"you!!"

Ji Lingzhang and He Shizhao both turned around and glared at Hu Yipang. In their hearts, they both wanted to tear apart this Mr. Hu who looked smooth and smooth but was actually twisted in his heart.

Sheng Shaoqing saw that they were about to quarrel, and she, the instigator, had to come out and say a few words. She was just about to calm down the situation calmly, but suddenly she thought that something was wrong. After thinking about it, she asked casually.

He said in a loud voice, "Master Hu, how do you know that Master He is accepting bribes?"

The more he thought about it, the more something was wrong. Sheng Shaoqing imitated Hu Yitan and asked:

"I also have three questions for Mr. Hu."

"Sir Hu, the Ministry of War has recruited five people this year. How did you know that there is no Li Lingjiang?"

"Mr. Hu, how did you know that Li Lingjiang received the supplementary admission notice years ago?"

"Master Hu, how did you know that there are so many things in Master He's house? Master He accepted the gift without even telling Master Ji, so how could he tell you?"

Before Hu Yitan could wake up from the threatening looks in Ji Lingzhang and He Shizhao's eyes, he was stunned on the spot by Sheng Shaoqing's three consecutive death questions.

How did he know this?

This question shouldn't be that important, right?

Hu Yitan struggled for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "Queen Mother! I think it is not important how I learned about this matter. What is important is to give Mr. Li an explanation, and to let Mr. He and Ji Shilang explain it."

All ministers must give an explanation, otherwise how will the official examinations be able to convince the public in the future?!"

He was willing to be killed and dared to pull the emperor off his horse.

With all his blood, he dared to make the Queen Mother shut her mouth.

Sheng Shaoqing:??????

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such a strong-willed minister. The last one to avoid answering her questions was Wei Zhen!

Hey, where is Wei Zhen?

It was such a lively scene, and it was a great opportunity to step on the Ji family. How could Wei Zhen remain silent?

Sure enough, when Sheng Shaoqing glanced at Wei Zhen's seat, Wei Zhen silently moved from the corner to the middle position, then stood up silently and said, "I think what Mr. Hu said is true."

"Please, Queen Mother, please don't sacrifice the fundamentals for the sake of inferiority."

After Wei Zhen finished speaking, he glanced at Sheng Shaoqing weakly. He now understood what it means to be short-handed and soft-spoken. Last time, the Queen Mother sent Wei Hefeng back regardless of past suspicions. Recently, he has reciprocated the favor and is no longer with the Queen Mother.

sing a different tune.

However, he could no longer swallow the matter today and must let the Queen Mother understand the stakes involved.

Seeing Wei Zhen's supportive remarks, Ji Wenxuan and Xue Wuji also stood up and spoke for Ji Lingzhang.

Sheng Shaoqing ignored them and just smiled and said: "Since Mr. Wei said this is the end, let Mr. Hu talk about it first. It won't delay anything, right?"

Hu Yitan:

Wei Zhen:.

Hu Yitan could only hesitate and say, "As a censor, I naturally care about the movements of the courtiers. A few days ago, I met Mr. Li in Xianyun Tower, and I got very close to him through words, so I asked him more questions.

After a few words, I found out that he failed to join the Ministry of War this time but was transferred to Yuzhou. Out of curiosity, Wei Chen investigated and found out the inside story."

Just as Ji Lingzhang was about to explain, Sheng Shaoqing continued to ask, "What about Master He accepting bribes? How did you know about it?"

"This. This."

"It must be Mr. Hu who is very clever, so he can clearly understand what is going on in Mr. He's house, right?" After Wei Zhen finished speaking, he looked at Hu Yitan and signaled Hu Yitan to answer. Hu Yitan gasped after receiving the signal,

He suppressed a roar in his lungs and said, "If you don't go down to the official position, your methods will not be very clever. I am just a minister. I have some special channels."

Hu Yitan hid everything the masked man said to him, and only used the words "special channels" to cover it up. I think the Queen Mother could understand that as a censor, how could she not have some channels to inquire about things?

Otherwise, wouldn’t it mean that we would have to have a vegetarian meal?!

Otherwise, how can you make a living in this highly competitive position if you don’t have any special skills?!

"Oh," Sheng Shaoqing sighed, "Then I have no problem."

Ji Lingzhang said loudly, "I have a problem!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I have three questions to ask Mr. Hu."

Sheng Shaoqing:

Hu Yitan:

Why come again?

"Master Hu, since you are so certain that there is an ulterior conspiracy between Master He and I, how did you know that Li Lingjiang was the first in the school?"

"First, official assessment has always been a confidential matter of the Ministry of Personnel. There are only a few people in the Ministry of Personnel who can know the final ranking. Mr. Hu, as a censor, is not a member of our Ministry of Personnel. How did you know?

"

"Second, as far as I know, Mr. Hu doesn't often go to Xianyunlou for a drink. How come he met Mr. Li by chance and heard his sincere words when he went there?"

"Third, can Mr. Hu's special channel tell Mr. Hu when and what gift I gave?"

Hu Yitan was so anxious that he was sweating, and the phlegm in his lungs became a little heavier. As a royal censor, he was always the only one who was aggressive, but how could he ever be questioned like this?

After a violent cough, Hu Yidan only managed to utter one or two words, "You! You!"

Seeing that the wind was gradually turning in their favor, He Shizhao also echoed, "That day when Master Ji sent you a generous gift, I had my doubts, but it was just because the person who came to give the gift had asked me to do so, so I didn't say anything. I originally wanted to wait.

A few days ago, I went to the door in person to return the generous gift, but I didn't expect to be discovered by Mr. Hu first. Now it seems that there must be a traitor who wants to sow discord and ruin the official reputation of Ji Shilang and me. He is a sophisticated person who uses this trick.

The cruelty is evident!"

"you!"

Hu Yitan did not expect that He Shizhao would become sharp-tongued. He not only brushed aside all his connections, but also established a good person who was loyal and honest. On the other hand, he was embarrassed by Ji Lingzhang's three questions.

It is really unreasonable to escape!

"It's my intention not to let Li Lingjiang join the Ministry of War."

Sheng Shaoqing's sudden words reached Hu Yitan's ears, and he felt a thunder flash above the hall, which struck him to pieces.

He thought about all the possibilities, but never thought that it was the Queen Mother who gave the order.

Could it be that everything the masked man said was lying to him?

He said that Li Lingjiang had outstanding political achievements but was harmed by traitors. Talents who were originally going to join the Ministry of War now had no choice but to go to Yuzhou to eat ashes. As a result, Li Lingjiang became depressed and kept getting drunk at Xianyunlou.

He said that the traitor bribed He Shizhao to secretly change the list of officials in the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Even if Li Lingjiang ranked first in the high school entrance examination at the same level, he was not a conspicuous figure in the capital city where there were many dignitaries. Except for one

Apart from her sister being a concubine in the palace, Li's background is really not outstanding.

He said that he had heard for a long time that Mr. Hu was famous for his courage to speak out his remonstrances. If he could speak up for Li Lingjiang and impeach He Shizhao, he would be able to eliminate great harm to the court, and he would also be famous in history and be famous for generations to come!

So, he just had nothing to do and ran to Xianyun Building to find Li Lingjiang to understand the situation. If he didn't know, he was really shocked by this understanding.

Mr. Li really has great ambitions, and the traitor must be jealous of his talents, so he would want to interfere with Mr. Li's promotion career.

As the grandson-in-law of the Qinghe Palace, Li Lingjiang's life was worse than that of a royal censor!

Only then did he feel sympathy, thinking that if he could help, he would help Li Lingjiang by saying a few words of justice, so as to undermine the prestige of the villain!

Of course, if there is no benefit, he will not do it early. He also wants to fulfill his own great reputation.

But there is one thing to say, he also found that the environment of Xianyun Building is really good, with good wine, delicious food, and music, which makes people forget to leave.

However, now the Queen Mother says that she is the one who does not allow Li Lingjiang to join the Ministry of War????

What about the traitor?

"Master Hu, I have seen Li Lingjiang's resume. He is full of economic talents and can make the people of Jiangzhou rich in food and clothing in just a few years. Why can't such a person let him benefit the people of this area? It is not suitable for him to let him go.

Where is the Ministry of War?"

"Besides, he only joined the Ministry of War as a member of the fifth rank, a foreign minister, and was sent to Yuzhou as a shepherd from the third rank. He can make full use of his talents and get a promotion. Why do you feel unfair to him?"

Hu Yitan:???????

He. That’s not what he said!!

"He, he...he only said it was released. He didn't...didn't say yes." The small eyes on Hu Yidan's round face suddenly widened, "He, he, he lied to me!"

Ji Lingzhang said calmly, "The official appointment documents of the overseas officials have not been approved yet, so it is normal for him not to know whether he has been promoted."

"No!" Hu Yitan said in horror, "No! Him."

Hu Yitan was keenly aware that the situation was now taking a turn for the worse. Even Mr. Wei Zhenwei, who had just spoken for him, shrank aside. If he fought to the end, he would probably be blamed for sowing discord.

Rather.

"If it's not him, who is it?" Sheng Shaoqing said calmly.

This time it was Hu Yitan who knelt on the ground and trembled like chaff, saying, "A few days ago, a mysterious person told the ministers that there was a traitor in the court who framed Li Lingjiang. He also said that person bribed He Shizhao and Lord He had tampered with the list.

, Wei Chen then paid attention, and that day he saw someone sending a generous gift to Mr. He's house, so "

He Shizhao was immediately shocked. He thought it was a gift from Master Ji, so he accepted it. Could it be?!

"These are all for Master Ji?!"

Ji Lingzhang also reacted, frowned and said in a deep voice, "If you really came here for Wei Chen?"

That’s such a big game!

Who would think of using Li Lingjiang’s incident to slander themselves?

And why do you think it can hurt yourself?

Sheng Shaoqing also frowned his beautiful eyebrows. Why is this matter becoming increasingly unclear to him?

I am the traitor?

Someone used Ji Lingzhang's name to send heavy gifts to He Shizhao, and told Hu Yitan that someone had been corrupt and bribed, and even influenced officials to appoint him to impeach He Shizhao. However, that person only knew that Ji Lingzhang and He Shizhao did not allow Li Lingjiang to join the Ministry of War, but he did not know what was going on behind the scenes.

The BOSS is myself.

So who could this person be?

Who would feel sorry for an inconspicuous person like Li Lingjiang?

Is it King Qinghe?

Or Wei Zhen, who has always been at odds with the Ji family?

Or even Li Lingjiang himself?

Very possible.

Hu Yitan realized that he had become a clown, and he felt regretful for a while. Before the Queen Mother asked him, he consciously said, "The mysterious man kept his face covered when he saw Wei Chen, so Wei Chen didn't see what he looked like."

Sheng Shaoqing:

Sheng Shaoqing still wanted to ask for details, but Ji Wenxuan said at the right time, "Your Majesty, this matter comes out of nowhere, and it involves the Ministry of Civil Affairs examination. It is better to leave it to Dali Temple for investigation, so as to restore the innocence of several adults, or to make peace. Mr. Hu’s suspicion.”

"Where is the Minister of Dali Temple?"

The Minister of Dali Temple, Shen Qishi, responded. Shen Qishi, who had just been watching the excitement, became more and more excited. He secretly prayed that this matter would not happen to him, but he did not expect that the Prime Minister would push this matter away. was pushed in front of his eyes.

"Queen Mother, I'm here!"

"Since the Prime Minister has spoken, this matter will be left to Dali Temple. I want to see the results before going to Chenliu. Do you understand?"

Shen Qishi calculated in his mind that the Queen Mother would set off at noon the next day, leaving him little time.

Bah bah bah!

There is not much time left for him to investigate the case!

The owner of this affliction is Li Lingjiang, the grandson-in-law of the Qinghe Palace and the future Yuzhou Mu. His official position is from the third rank to his own level.

The one who made the complaint was Mr. Hu, the imperial censor, a third-rank official.

The defendants are He Shizhao, a member of the Ministry of Personnel, and Ji Lingzhang, a minister of the Ministry of Personnel, from the sixth rank and the third rank.

Everyone is more senior than him, and everyone is untouchable. How can he investigate this case?!

He was thinking about resigning, but Shen Qishi responded, "I understand, I will definitely give an explanation to the Queen Mother and you all!"

How else can I resign if I don’t serve in this position?

Investigating difficult and major cases is his strength, but he is really afraid of investigating high-ranking officials.

Prime Minister Ji seemed to be able to hear Shen Qishi's inner thoughts and continued, "Mr. Shen, this case involves serious matters, but you don't have to be timid because of this. If anyone dares to stop you, just return to your true colors."

Hearing this, Shen Qishi seemed to have taken a reassurance and mustered up his courage. Since Prime Minister Ji was willing to draw this cake, it was better than nothing. After calming down, Shen Qishi nodded firmly.

Sheng Shaoqing heard what Ji Wenxuan meant and didn't know who was referring to it, but it seemed that the morning meeting was about to end, so he fell silent.

After the meeting, Sheng Shaoqing took Yuan Che back to the inner court with a heavy heart.

Yuan Che felt depressed when he saw Sheng Shaoqing's hesitant expression. After seeing the two companions, he also put on a bad face and said to Liu Chen, "Didn't I tell you not to come today? Why are you still coming?"

Liu Chen said respectfully, "As His Majesty's companion, how can I be slack for one day? I am not sick and have no chores. How can I dare to delay my schooling?"

Yuan Che angrily pushed Liu Chen and said, "Why do you talk more than the Taifu?!"

"Yuan Che! What are you doing?!"

Yesterday’s new post was blocked again, so I’ll add it to the back today!
