The speaker was Song Kuan's wife, Mrs. Nie. She complained and rolled her eyes.
Naturally, she felt sorry for her husband. When she saw Song Kuan came back injured in the evening, she almost frightened her to death.
Song Kuan sighed helplessly.
"Oh, what can I do?"
"On this matter, all the civil and military officials of the dynasty are standing with the Prime Minister. What if I am a coward? Can I continue to stay in this position?"
"Who knew His Majesty would suddenly stimulate him? Otherwise, I wouldn't have taken advantage of him!"
However, Mrs. Nie was still extremely dissatisfied after hearing this.
"This time when the Ministry of Rites was killed, he, the prime minister, should have taken the lead!"
"Even if we have to appeal to His Majesty, he, the prime minister, should take the lead in going in! You can just follow along and shout a few words."
"Do you really think that His Majesty will really comply with your wishes if you cannot afford to kneel down in the palace? Don't you know what His Majesty's temper is like after you have been an official for so many years?"
Words of complaint arose one after another. Mrs. Nie raised Song Kuan's arm, untied the gauze, and began to change his dressing.
Song Kuan could only grimace in pain while shaking his head helplessly.
"I can't help it. Besides, this matter is indeed too horrifying. This eunuch is really too cruel! He dared to kill everyone in the Ministry of Rites! There is no guarantee that one day he will not come to kill me!"
"In this case, let's take this opportunity to kill him quickly! Otherwise, everyone in the court will be in danger!"
Song Kuan was still frightened. Although he had not personally witnessed the tragic death of those in the Ministry of Rites, he was still completely shocked when he heard about it!
Because of this, he would spare no effort to kill Lin Yiqiu with other officials!
What he said is right, because of this incident, everyone in the civil and military dynasties is in danger!
Even someone like him, who had no grudge against Lin Yiqiu in the past, had to join the team to defeat Lin Yiqiu!
Not for anything else, just to protect yourself!
Don’t wait for the day when the eunuch’s butcher’s knife reaches your head!
But Mrs. Nie didn't care about that.
"In my opinion, the people in the Ministry of Etiquette deserve it too! Do we need to say more about what they have done?"
"That is to say, His Majesty doesn't investigate them because he thinks they are still useful, otherwise it would not be too much to kill all nine tribes!"
"And when they usually ignore you and exclude you, they all become arrogant! When they ask you to borrow money, they become even more arrogant! They deserve to die!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Song Kuan quickly hissed.
"Be careful what you say! Be careful what you say!"
Afterwards, Song Kuan looked around to make sure there was no one else, and then said: "You think I want it? I am also forced to have no choice!"
"Besides, everyone is already dead, why do you care about these things?"
"Haha, you're right, everyone is already dead, why bother?"
Mrs. Nie sneered, but her expression became more mocking.
"As I said, your Majesty won't investigate, otherwise these officials of the Ministry of Rites will be punished by the nine tribes one by one! What did the money they borrowed go to in the end? Do we need to say more?"
"Now that a person is dead, there is no need to repay the debt. If Your Majesty starts to care about it in the end, it will fall on you!"
"Oh, what can I do?"
Song Kuan sighed helplessly.
"Then He Weixin is very close to the Prime Minister! Every time he comes, he uses the Prime Minister's name!"
"Do you think I can refuse? Do I dare to refuse?"
"Why don't you dare? If you are tougher, you can refuse?"
Mrs. Nie is not afraid at all!
"They loaned out money one by one. Has anyone paid it back yet? Especially Li Yan! I'm afraid he will soon become your number one debtor!"
"I'm telling you, you have to hide your account book carefully! If the emperor wants to treat you one day, take it out and it will save your life! Do you know?"
"Okay, okay, I got it, I got it."
Song Kuan said impatiently.
Today's events made him, the Minister of the Ministry of Finance, who usually seems to be popular among thousands of people in the court, but is actually only regarded as a tool by everyone, feel extremely depressed!
But he has no other choice!
The most important thing now is to follow Li Yan in urging His Majesty to execute Lin Yiqiu!
No matter what! This eunuch must not stay! This is the top priority!
Soon, the lights in the room went out, and Song Kuan hugged Mrs. Nie and prepared to fall asleep.
However, at this moment, there was a sudden noise outside the door.
"Weird, is there a thief?"
Song Kuan was suspicious for a while.
Mrs. Nie was quite tough. She stood up and picked up the bench to go out to see the situation.
Unexpectedly, the next second, the old housekeeper's voice came from outside the door.
"Master! It's me! Something's happened!"
Mrs. Nie quickly opened the door.
The old housekeeper bowed first, then immediately stepped into the room and bent down to report.
"Someone is looking for you, sir!"
"Find me?"
Song Kuan was confused.
This late at night, someone is looking for him if he doesn't sleep?
Could it be that Li Yan wants him to do something again?
Why is this dead prime minister so annoying?
However, what the old butler said next directly scared him!
"Master, he is from the Imperial Guards Command. He told me to enter the palace immediately! They are waiting outside the door!"
"What? Custodes?"
Song Kuan was so frightened that he rolled off the bed!
Late at night, the imperial army is looking for him, which means that the emperor is looking for him!
Song Kuan only had one feeling: it might not be a good thing!
And he is still injured now! The fear of Emperor Qian in his heart was instantly ignited!
Mrs. Nie also frowned, but she asked calmly: "Did you tell me what it was? Why are you looking for the master?"
"I didn't say that, but it looks like he is quite anxious."
The old housekeeper continued to respond truthfully.
Mrs. Nie thought for a moment.
"There shouldn't be any danger, otherwise we would just come in and arrest people."
"Go quickly. If you go and play, it will really displease the emperor. Then you won't be able to tell for sure!"
"Yes, I'll go right away!"
Song Kuan quickly put on his clothes, and under the leadership of the old housekeeper, he first left the yard and then walked around the corridor.
When I arrived at the door, I opened it and saw a group of Forbidden Soldiers waiting outside the door.
When the leader of the soldiers saw him, he raised his hands politely and said, "Sir Song, if the emperor invites you, can you please follow us into the palace as soon as possible?"
"May I ask what is urgent about your majesty?"
Song Kuan asked cautiously.
The Imperial Guard also shook his head.
"We don't know this, but His Majesty made the summons all night long. It must be extremely important. Mr. Song, please don't delay any more and come with us quickly!"
"Okay, okay! Then hurry up and set off!"
Song Kuan immediately got on the sedan chair.
A group of Forbidden Army soldiers carried him and quickly walked towards the palace.
After a while, Song Kuan arrived outside the palace, got off the sedan first, and then walked toward Emperor Qian's chamber on foot, led by the Forbidden Army soldiers.
Before he even stepped forward, Emperor Qian's voice sounded.
"Is Song Kuan here?"
The voice is neither cold nor warm.
After listening, Song Kuan subconsciously felt a chill down his back. This chapter has been completed!
