"I don't know!"

Sima Jian shook his head: "Although he is the son-in-law of the truth, he is unpredictable, and the truth does not know his next move!"

Mrs. Zhang was a little disappointed, she turned her head and asked, "Shangshu of the Ministry of Households and Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, do you know?"

"Cough cough cough..."

Hubu Shangshu's eyes dodged a little: "We don't know either!"

"Humph......"

Mrs. Zhang said bitterly: "Minister of the Household Department, I heard that you encouraged the King of Huangzhou to attack our families for the sake of official status. Is it true?"

Tobu Shangshu almost jumped up: "This is a rumor!"

"This is slander!"

"Never mind!"

"is it?"

Mrs. Zhang had a look of disbelief: "Master of the Household Department, why did you do this?"

"Is your food not food?"

"Could it be that your family's money was blown by a strong wind? Doesn't your heart hurt at all if you donate it?"

"Madam Zhang, you can't listen to rumors, you have to trust me!"

Hubu Shangshu hurriedly said: "This time, my family donated a lot, and my vitality was also seriously injured. How can you listen to rumors and doubt me?"

"This official really never encouraged the king of Huangzhou to attack each family!"

Then, he turned his attention to Sima Jian: "It is the refugee relief plan formulated by Mr. Zuoxiang. Speaking of which, what has it to do with me?"

All eyes turned to Sima Jian!

Sima Jian closed his eyes helplessly: "If you think it is the truth, then it is the truth!"

Sima Jian did not refute!

Suddenly, the study fell into silence!

The six ministers, Mrs. Zhang, and all the masters are thinking about it!

At this time, Shangshu Hubu and Shangshu Xingbu looked at each other, they hesitated to speak, and finally did not speak again!

Mrs. Zhang raised her eyelids: "I believe it wasn't the left minister!"

Sima Jian opened his eyes: "You just need to understand!"

Immediately afterwards, the gloomy old man Zhang said again: "You two ministers, although you are now under the control of the barren state king, you are also members of the family, so don't turn your elbows out!"

"of course not!"

The Minister of the Household Department and the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment said in unison: "It's just that the Ministry of Household and the Ministry of Punishment are under the control of the king of the barren state. We can't help ourselves. Please forgive me!"

"Working under him, we really don't want to, it's bitter!"

"Humph......"

Mrs. Zhang was full of disbelief: "Master of the Household Department, is this really the case?"

"The national treasury is empty, and you can't escape accountability, but now that the treasury is refilled, you are getting more and more secure on the throne of Shangshu. What's the matter?"

Hubu Shangshu: "..."

Then, Mrs. Zhang looked suspiciously at Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, and she seemed to have something to say!

The Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment hastily said: "Old Madam Zhang, my Ministry of Punishment has not benefited this time!"

"lie!"

Mrs. Zhang narrowed her eyes, and the corners of her eyes were full of wrinkles: "Nowadays there are thieves and thieves everywhere, and your criminal department is exhausted but has no achievements. If you continue like this, you will not only be dismissed from office, but you may also be punished by the emperor, right?"

"Old Madam Zhang, stop talking nonsense!"

The Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment will never admit it: "Since I took charge of the Ministry of Punishment, I have been conscientiously arresting thieves from all sides and maintaining the law and order of the empire. However, there are too many thieves to catch!"

"is it?"

Mrs. Zhang didn't believe it at all: "The Ministry of Punishment is doing nothing, and His Majesty seems very dissatisfied. If you don't make any more contributions, you, the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, must have really done it!"

The Minister of the Ministry of Officials blushed and did not refute!

"Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice, you are now directly under the management of the king of Huangzhou. His reputation is very useful to you. He can make all the gangsters surrender and flee for their lives. Thanks to your merits, you will be able to sit firmly on the throne of Minister of the Ministry of Officials, right?"

"Madam Zhang, you think too much!"

The Minister of the Ministry of Punishment blushed, "I have never thought of this before, this is all your speculation!"

"My official and you are in the same spirit, sharing weal and woe. I have always opened the door for you in my position as Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment. Have you all forgotten?"

Speaking of this, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice raised his eyelids: "Mrs. Zhang, don't your descendants do too many evil things?"

"If it weren't for me, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, your descendants of the Zhang family would have been arrested and executed long ago!"

"What do you say?"

The more the Minister of the Ministry of Justice said, the straighter his waist was: "Everyone, what are the people of your families... You know for yourself that if the things they did were dealt with according to the laws of the empire, their heads would be cut off ten times. Not too much!"

"But now, not only are they fine, but they are also living extremely well. Isn't it because of me?"

"is not it?"

Mrs. Zhang died down!

Everyone thought of those lawless people in the family!

They also remembered some shit!

At this moment, when they looked at Shangshu Xingbu, there was gratitude in their eyes!

yes!

If it hadn't been for Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice to cover up their families, if he hadn't killed those troublemakers who dared to sue, and eliminated the trouble for them, they would not be able to override the laws of the empire and be at ease.

At this time.

"Cough cough cough..."

Sima Jian coughed a few times, and attracted everyone's attention: "Everyone, you were lured to petition in front of the palace this time, do you really think it's the truth?"

Mrs. Zhang shook her head: "It shouldn't be the Sima Patriarch!"

"Patriarch Sima has been in charge of the government for more than ten years, and has always protected the interests of our families. He has a long-term vision and is cautious in doing things. This kind of thing that is connected in series to persecute the emperor is definitely not the style of Patriarch Sima!"

"It's only because we were careless at the time, angry in our hearts, and didn't notice Sima Yu's abnormality, so we were fooled!"

"Yes!"

There was regret on everyone's face: "It's careless!"

"Do not!"

Sima Jian shook his head and denied: "You are not careless!"

"You are arrogant!"

"On weekdays, your families rely on your power, your truth and the protection of your officials to do whatever you want in the imperial capital. Now, you don't even care about His Majesty the Emperor!"

Everyone is silent!

Yes!

now.

Mrs. Zhang raised her eyelids, her face full of displeasure: "Patriarch Sima, before we followed the current sage to force the palace, he said in advance that if we win the world, we will share it with us, right?"

"Correct!"

Everyone nodded: "This matter has been recorded in the family history of each family!"

Mrs. Zhang clapped the armrests and stood up: "But after he ascended the throne, he seemed to have forgotten his promise to us. He didn't give us a fiefdom, nor let us share the world. It’s just a little bit of power, but it’s no different from our treatment in Daqin!”

The more Mrs. Zhang spoke, the more angry she became: "So, why don't we use our privileges to make life better for the family?"

"Is something wrong?"

"That's right!"

Everyone became angry: "Patriarch Sima, do you think this is the case?"

"Hey......"

Sima Jian sighed softly, with a heavy heart: "Everyone, I called you this time because I wanted to tell you... Now that the king of Huangzhou has returned to the court to serve as the right minister, you must act carefully and keep a low profile." Some!"

"He doesn't do things according to common sense, and no one knows what he can do... This is the end of the truth, everyone take care!"

at last!

Mrs. Zhang asked: "Patriarch Sima, if there is a conflict between us and the king of Huangzhou, where will you stand?"

"Of course I'm on your side!"

Sima Jian said without hesitation: "The wealthy family in the imperial capital is one family!"

"All I want is your words!"

Mrs. Zhang stared at Sima Jian's eyes and said: "The old lady just said... If the king of Huangzhou continues to be the right minister, there will be no way for us to survive, so we decided to kill him!"

"what?"

Sima Jian was shocked: "How?"
