Yunmeng knew very well that if she had not exposed the true identity of King Wei and let Emperor Yong'an know that he had raised a son for King Wei, Emperor Yong'an would not have been so eager to take action against King Wei.

If she had not used some tricks to force the King of Wei to make a choice, the King of Wei would not have rebelled in a hurry. If Emperor Yong'an had not been in a hurry to subdue the border troops, he would not have made such a stupid move.

As for General Han, well, the Han family probably knew about the matter between Concubine Han and King Wei. As soon as something happened to Concubine Han, they reacted.

It’s just that the Han family didn’t show it, so Emperor Yong’an looked down on them and allowed the Han family to seize the opportunity to turn the tables.

Anyway, General Han’s family was killed by the men in black, so Emperor Yong’an has to take the blame. General Han will definitely lead his troops to kill them.

They said they were seeking revenge for their family, but in reality they were trying to divide up the territory.

General Han is also a ruthless man.

The father and daughter chatted for a long time. The 100,000 troops in the border town had a destination, and the northwest was also guaranteed. It was perfect.

The next day, Lord Yun started arguing with Emperor Yong'an as soon as he attended the court, and the emperor wanted to drive people out of the capital again.

This person is really irritating.

Yunmeng didn't get up until mid-morning. Mobao was already studying with the teacher. Chunzhi came over to serve Yunmeng.

"Princess, do you know?"

As soon as Yunmeng heard this, she knew that gossip was coming, but it turned out not to be true.

Chunzhi said, "Princess, the old lady of the Left Prime Minister's Mansion is celebrating her birthday and has sent an invitation. Should we go?"

"Have you been there before?" Yunmeng asked.

"No, but I've sent the gift." Chunzhi thought that although the gift was not expensive, it was a thoughtful gesture.

"Then go." Yun Meng also wanted to know why the Left Prime Minister's Mansion dared to hold such a grand ceremony at this critical juncture.

Aren’t you afraid of catching the eyes of Emperor Yong’an?

"Okay, then let the old butler prepare a light gift, and you go in person. This gift is too light and inappropriate."

Chunzhi's words reminded Yunmeng that in the past, Prince Qi's Mansion was poor, and the gifts they sent were genuine and not expensive.

"By the way, Mrs. Cheng died. Did the Cheng family hold a big funeral? Did they need to send someone to pay their respects?" Yun Meng asked.

“It shouldn’t be necessary. If the Cheng family wanted to hold a grand ceremony, they would have sent someone to send an invitation. But Master Cheng has already retired, so the possibility of a grand ceremony is very small.

Besides, Madam Cheng died suddenly, so it's not appropriate to have a grand funeral. It's a pity for Madam Cheng. She was just visiting her relatives, but she died!"

Chunzhi sighed. Who could have thought that such a case could happen in the capital? Where did those men in black come from?

Today, the Ministry of Justice is leaderless, the level of case handling has plummeted, and the public security in the capital is worrying.

What Chunzhi could think of was also being discussed in the court, and Qin Zhuo was being blasted with charges one after another.

I wish I could smash Qin Zhuo to death with the charges!

Because of Qin Zhuo's case, all the members of the Qin family were thrown into jail. Their former glory became a thing of the past, and they even lost their lives.

Emperor Yong'an also knew that the Ministry of Justice could not be without a person in charge, so he wanted to promote one from among the officials, but who to promote became a problem.

There are so many vacancies in the Ministry of Justice, and everyone wants to fill that position, and everyone wants to compete for the position of Shangshu.

The eyes of the several forces fighting for it were all red.

Emperor Yong'an looked at Prince Rui and Lord Yun. The two of them seemed calm and composed, which made Emperor Yong'an a little unhappy.

However, when he thought that neither of them took sides and had no party, Emperor Yong'an felt inexplicably happy.

It would be great if no one took sides.

What a pity, what a pity.

Emperor Yong'an's eyes searched the crowd and finally fell on Lord Wei.

Lord Wei is Queen Wei's elder brother. Queen Wei has no son, so it doesn't matter if Lord Wei has more power.

Then!

"Your Majesty, I suggest that Lord Yu be appointed as the Minister of Justice." The Left Prime Minister stepped forward and made a request, "Lord Yu is both civil and military, and was once a double Jinshi in civil and military affairs.

Moreover, Lord Yu has handled many major cases and made countless contributions to the State of Yan..."

Lord Yu? Emperor Yong'an's eyes fell on the face of a man standing at the back among the officials.

Emperor Yong'an had an impression of Lord Yu, who was indeed a double Jinshi in civil and military affairs, and was capable of both literature and martial arts, but Lord Yu was a disciple of the Left Prime Minister.

The Left Prime Minister is already in the position of Prime Minister and has great power in his hands. If his disciple becomes another Shangshu, I’m afraid it will be terrible!

Emperor Yong'an, like all the previous emperors, also liked the principle of balance, and he was afraid that Lord Yu's promotion would disrupt the principle of balance.

If not for this, Lord Yu would have been promoted long ago.

The left prime minister's words made sense, and many ministers agreed.

Lord Yun glanced at the Left Prime Minister. The old man was getting anxious, fearing that Emperor Yong'an would call on Lord Wei's name.

But is it really appropriate to do this?

This emperor is a very suspicious person.

Emperor Yong'an glanced at the minister who seconded the motion, and a look of displeasure flashed in his eyes. What a bullshit!

With so many people praising the Left Prime Minister, what would happen if he got another Shangshu to help him?

No matter what, Lord Yu cannot be promoted and must be suppressed where he is.

If it doesn't work, send him out. By the way, since he is a double Jinshi in civil and military affairs, then send him to inspect the east and find a way to take back the lost land in the east.

Emperor Yong'an thought his idea was great, so he issued an imperial decree on the spot to appoint Yu as an inspector.

Zuo Xiang and others were dumbfounded. No, is it appropriate for you to come out as an inspector at this time?

The East is a very dangerous place.

The left prime minister felt regretful and should have stopped fighting earlier.

Lord Yu didn't think too much about it and accepted the order happily. Lord Yu thought very clearly that if he wanted to get promoted, he had to look at his merits.

It is very difficult to make merit while staying in the capital. Eight people are competing for one merit, and every time they fight to the point of being beaten to a pulp, they still fail to get it.

If he leaves the capital, or becomes an inspector, he will have the final say.

As for danger, where is not dangerous?

Zuo Xiang closed his eyes angrily, suppressed the anger in his heart, returned to his seat and said nothing more.

When the Right Prime Minister saw the opportunity, he quickly stepped forward to recommend his own people, but ended up with a similar fate as Lord Yu.

Now no one else dared to move. If they recommended one and expelled one from Beijing, then what would be the point of this?

Seeing that no one was robbing him, Emperor Yong'an was happy. Lord Wei stepped forward to receive the title and became the new Minister of Justice.

What could the officials not understand after seeing this? The Emperor is determined to promote Lord Wei.

It has to be said that being the emperor's relative has many benefits, so do they want to send a daughter into the palace?

Forget it. Given the current situation, it’s better not to send anyone to the palace. Who knows if the State of Yan can survive this disaster?

It won’t be too late to take action after driving Dongqing’s army out of Yan State.

Emperor Yong'an probably didn't expect that all of them wanted to be the emperor's husband.

After the positions of Minister of Justice and Vice Minister of Justice were decided, someone had to be appointed. At this time, the Left Prime Minister and the Right Prime Minister factions began to fight again.

That's because everyone wants to put their own people in every position. If they can grab all the positions, that would naturally be perfect.

Of course it is impossible to grab all the spots!
