The system forced me to be emperor

Huo Xingye sighed softly, and said: "Yeah, I was worrying too much. Damn it, this Guo Ziyi came here and aroused our suspicions. Random thinking is the easiest way to do bad things!"

After the two looked at each other, they both remained silent.

After a while, Ye Xiu said, "I'll go back for now, and wait for Marquis Chang Sheng to send the witnesses and physical evidence, and we can discuss it temporarily!"

"Okay!" Huo Xingye stood up and saw Ye Xiu off.

Seeing Ye Xiu leave, Huo Xingye's frowning brows were immediately relieved, and he said with a smile: "This old man Ye is really cunning, he doesn't support any prince, but he doesn't want to offend the King of Chu, so he came to me on purpose and asked me to go into the water! The less people he offends when things go wrong."

"However, what surprised me was King Xian's method. It was a fatal blow! No matter how King Xian got the information, dealing with King Chu is a good thing for everyone. How could I refuse? Even if King Xian didn't send Guo Ziyi Come and beat me, I will also make this matter big, once something happens to Bai Huhou, the Zhou clan and Duke Xi will be implicated, haha..."

"However, since King Xian wants to do it himself, I will give him this knife as a favor!"

Huo Xingye is the uncle of the Fourth Prince Xiao Feng. He is eager to see something happen to King Chu. Now that he can deal with King Chu's power, why not do it?

In fact, just as Huo Xingye guessed, this was the main reason why Guo Jia used Guo Ziyi to beat Huo Xingye!

He, Xiao Rui, has already boasted that he wants to deal with the King of Chu with his own hands, how could he not keep his word?

……

Although Wei Wuxian told King Chu and Xi Guogong about Xiao Rui's life experience, the two still did not persuade Wei Wuxian to be a witness to expose the matter.There is no witness, and there is no evidence to rely on words alone, so the matter is temporarily delayed. In addition, the concubine Du Xueqin gave birth to Linzi, and Xiao Yiheng has been so happy these days, so he didn't act too hastily.

In the blink of an eye, ten days had passed since Xiao Yan's wedding.

Xiao Rui's life is free and unrestrained, he doesn't go to the morning court, and he just hangs around the Metropolitan Procuratorate when he has nothing to do. Du Shaonian, the censor of Zuodu, sees that King Xian doesn't seem to be causing trouble, so he finally feels relieved.Even Du Shaonian forgot to ask who the corrupt official Hao Yun investigated was who he was.

On this day, Xiao Rui had just finished his training, when someone came from the palace, His Majesty summoned him.

After he entered the palace, he came to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to meet Emperor Xia.

"I pay my respects to my father!" Xiao Rui said respectfully.

Emperor Xia was reviewing the memorandum, raised his head slightly, glanced at Xiao Rui, and said, "I asked you to be the assistant officer of Zuodu Censor. You are obedient and report to the Metropolitan Procuratorate early. But why didn't you see you in the early morning? Isn't it me?" If you don’t mention it, you just pretend you don’t know it and don’t go all the time?”

Xiao Rui had already thought about the reason, and said: "Father, although my son went to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to study, his official position is still the supervisory censor, and the supervisory censor is not qualified to go to court, so the son did not dare to make decisions on his own. Afraid of breaking the rules."

"Excessive words!" Xia Huang snorted.

Xiao Rui originally held that it would be a day to delay, so he said: "I know I was wrong."

Emperor Xia didn't hold him accountable either, saying: "To call you into the palace today is two things. One, the clan's mansion is optimistic about your big day with the daughter of Champion Marquis and Li Mingyang's granddaughter. One is the 28th of the twelfth lunar month. One is March [-]th of the Chinese New Year, when you get married, I naturally want to ask about your plans!"

Xiao Rui said: "The 28th of the twelfth lunar month is definitely too late. I can only choose the fifteenth day of March next year. There are still nearly four months left, so give my son more time to prepare."

Emperor Xia nodded and said, "Okay, it's settled like this. The second thing is that Qi's mission has entered the capital, and it will arrive in the capital in a few days. You should be ready."

"My son understands!" Xiao Rui said respectfully, and then asked: "Father, what is the diplomatic policy of our Great Xia Kingdom when we receive envoys from the Qi Kingdom?"

Xia Huang lifted up the pen, and Yan Xiaoxiao took it respectfully. Xia Huang smiled and said: "Stay the same for all changes! If there is an advantage, you can reap the benefits, and if you don't suffer a loss, you can do it! This time, I will also give you the power to do things cheaply. You are fully responsible for this reception. This time, you don’t need to find other princes to help you take the blame, right?”

"No need, no need, the elder brothers are very busy, I can just come by myself." Xiao Rui didn't change his face, so he wouldn't be embarrassed by Emperor Xia's squeeze.

Emperor Xia nodded.

At this moment, an eunuch hurriedly entered the palace, whispered something in Hai Dafu's ear, and then Hai Dafu said: "Your Majesty, Lord Ye Xiu, Minister of the Ministry of Justice, Huo Xingye, Minister of the Ministry of Justice, and Guo Ziyi, the left servant of the Ministry of Justice, are asking to see you." !"

"Oh? Why did the three of them come here together? Could it be that something happened at the border?" Xia Huang was surprised, and immediately said: "Xuan!"

Xiao Rui stood up and said, "Father, the minister there will take his leave first."

But Emperor Xia said: "It's okay, just sit and listen!"

Xiao Rui had no choice but to continue to sit there, watching his nose and mind.

Soon, Ye Xiu, Huo Xingye, and Guo Ziyi entered the hall to pay their respects. When they saw Xiao Rui in the hall, the three of them were slightly taken aback.

Emperor Xia said: "Excuse me, give me a seat! The three of you are in charge of the world's soldiers and horses, and you entered the palace together today. Could it be that something important happened?"

Ye Xiu took the initiative to come out and glanced at Xiao Rui first. Although he knew that Xiao Rui knew what was going to happen, he was reporting to His Majesty after all.

"Xian Wang was left behind by me, so don't avoid suspicion, just tell me!" Xia Huang explained.

Ye Xiu thought about it, wondering what His Majesty meant by that.Do you have more trust in King Xian, or do you know what happened?

Not only him, but even Xiao Rui, who was sitting quietly, couldn't guess the emperor's intention.

Ye Xiu didn't dare to delay, so he respectfully said: "Your Majesty, I received an urgent encrypted military report from Chang Shenghou Kuaima eight days ago. His military report revealed that Bai Huhou Zhou Shufeng had colluded with Zhao Kuangming, the sixth prince of Zhao State. , collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country. The minister dare not make good claims, lest he will startle the snake, so after communicating with Huo Shangshu, he kept his composure for the time being. Five days ago, Chang Shenghou sent people to escort the criminals and criminal evidence into Beijing. These days, Guo Shilang Secretly reviewed and found that the evidence is true!"

"Oh? Baihuhou Zhou Shufeng actually colluded with Zhao's prince, collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country?" After hearing this, Emperor Xia frowned, and immediately sat upright.

The game begins.

Xiao Rui also showed a look of astonishment, since it's acting, it has to act like it.

Chapter 388: The Interlocking Poisonous Scheme

In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, incense was wafting, but the atmosphere was a little depressing.

Following Ye Xiu's revelation of Bai Huhou's collusion with Zhao Kuangming, the sixth prince of the Zhao Kingdom, and the collusion and traitorous event, the hall became quiet and silent.

After Xiahuang repeated it, he sat up straight and knocked on the table, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Ye Aiqing, you just said that the witnesses and criminal evidence brought back by Marquis Chang Sheng have been interrogated?" Xia Huang asked.

Ye Xiu said, "Yes, Your Majesty, it has been interrogated by Guo Shilang."

Guo Ziyi said respectfully: "Your Majesty, I asked three witnesses. These three people are the confidantes of Zhao Kuangming, the sixth prince of the Zhao Kingdom, and the other is the guard who sat down by Bai Huhou. The collusion confessed, and at the same time, the physical evidence also included the autographed letters between Zhao Kuangming and Zhou Shufeng! Weichen has confirmed that it is indeed Zhou Shufeng’s autograph."

Guo Ziyi paused, giving Emperor Xia time to think, and then said: "Your Majesty, fortunately, Chang Shenghou found out in time. According to the content of the secret letter between the two, Zhao Kuangming had already obtained from Zhou Shufeng that Chang Shenghou was arranging troops at the border. The military information deployed in the formation, once Zhao Guo's army sneaks in, it will inevitably cause unimaginable disasters to Changsheng Hou's army! There will be heavy casualties!"

After finishing speaking, Guo Ziyi presented the confession and physical evidence, and Hai Dafu took them and presented them to Emperor Xia.

Emperor Xia glanced at the confession, and focused on the information in the secret letter about Chang Sheng Hou's formation. Just as Guo Ziyi said, once Zhao Guo's soldiers seized weak positions to attack, the defense line formed by Chang Sheng Hou would soon be broken. cause very large losses.

Huo Xingye took the opportunity to say: "Your Majesty, the White Tiger Marquis Zhou Shufeng was so delighted with his meritorious deeds. In order to obtain military merits, he actually colluded with foreign enemies and put Xia Guo's safety at risk. His crimes are so vile that it is hard to write down. It is chilling! Zhou Shufeng vainly cared about the grace of God and the laws of the country, please Your Majesty!" Decide!"

Ye Xiu didn't continue to add insult to injury, so he just said, "Your Majesty, please decide!"

The three bowed their hands at the same time, quietly waiting for His Majesty's decision.

Emperor Xia didn't speak, and his face was expressionless.

Xiao Rui sat there honestly, watching the play quietly, and he couldn't speak.

Xiao Rui's declaration of war against Queen Zhou Xiangyun was not aimless. Since Xiao Rui left Xiangzhou and let go of Zhao Kuangming, the sixth prince of Zhao Kingdom, Guo Jia began to plan actions.

It is not difficult to bring down Duke Xi, who is an official, but the Zhou clan behind him is deeply rooted and involves too many civil and military officials, so it is difficult to uproot him unless he is convicted of a serious crime!
