Madam, protect me!

Chapter 296: Angry at the Right Prime Minister

Li Nuo had long known that the person in the DPRK who had been blocking his entry into the Ministry of Justice was the Right Prime Minister.

He looked at the right minister and asked: "May I ask the right minister, what happened to my father?"

The Right Prime Minister said in a deep voice: "Your father rejected dissidents, exercised dictatorship, abused his power, murdered loyal people, disregarded human lives, and unjustly killed innocent people. Which of these crimes did he wrongly accuse?"

Li Nuo asked rhetorically: "As the right prime minister and the general in charge of court affairs, you should be fair and just. I am the number one scholar in six subjects, and I am excellent in six subjects. According to the law, I should be appointed as the center of the three provinces. However, you have repeatedly blocked me from taking the appropriate official position. Isn’t this not excluding dissidents, exercising dictatorship, and abusing power?”

The right prime minister became furious and shouted: "What a shame!"

Li Nuo was not afraid at all and continued: "As the head of a hundred officials, you cannot be fair and just, and make the best use of your talents, but you exercise dictatorship and abuse your power. Your Majesty and the people trust you and let you hold such an important official position. This is how you repay Your Majesty, repay the world?"

The right prime minister pointed at him and said angrily: "Shut up!"

Li Nuo did not stop and continued: "If it weren't for me, the case of the second prince of Liang would not have been solved so far. The relationship between Daxia and Liang would inevitably break down. This would bring great losses to the court and bury Daxia. As the prime minister, don’t you know how big the hidden danger is?

Seeing that the right minister was speechless, he asked again: "The Sifang Pavilion case, the East Palace case, and the Liang State Embassy case, which one was not solved by my officer? When I was solving the case, what were the Criminal Department and Dali Temple doing? Regarding the investigation, There is no one in the court who can compare with me in this case. I am just a doctor from the Ministry of Punishment. How can I be qualified as this officer?”

Li Nuo did not deliberately suppress his voice, he even used his ability to listen.

At this moment, the words he just said echoed throughout the Zhongshu Province.

The two ministers stared at their toes, holding their breath.

As expected of the son of the Minister of Dali Temple, he really dares to say anything.

The important thing is that although what he said was a bit arrogant, every sentence made sense...

He was the number one scholar in six subjects and was excellent in six subjects. He saved the imperial court from danger several times.

This kind of talent should be reused by the imperial court.

But the right prime minister has been severely suppressing him.

From his perspective, it is indeed the right prime minister who excludes dissidents, exercises dictatorship, and abuses his power.

Due to his status as the Right Prime Minister, no one dared to say these words, and no one dared to think about them, but he said them nakedly in front of so many people today.

The entire Zhongshu Province was completely silent at this moment.

They have been in the court for many years and have never seen anyone dare to talk to the right minister like this.

Even the minister of Dali Temple will give some face to the right minister.

Master Xiao Li is more courageous than his father back then.

The right prime minister's chest was heaving, and he pointed at Li Nuo with his trembling right hand. He moved his lips, but found that he could not refute at all, so he could only wave his sleeves suddenly and strode away.

The two Zhongshu ministers breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Li Nuo with admiration.

From now on, I'm afraid no one will dare to suppress him in the officialdom.

Anyone who is scolded by him in front of everyone must consider the impact.

However, no one except the right prime minister has the ability to suppress him.

The entire government office was quiet. Finally, the left prime minister coughed lightly, picked up a transfer order from the table, handed it to Li Nuo, and said, "Your transfer order has already been drawn up, take it."

Li Nuo took the order and said, "Thank you, Prime Minister Zuo."

He bowed his hands slightly to Zuo Xiang, then turned around and walked out of the government office, as if nothing happened just now.

As soon as he left Zhongshu Province, Zhongshu Province was completely boiling.

"Hiss, how dare you say that!"

"In my 20 years in Zhongshu Province, this is the first time I have seen someone dare to speak to the Right Prime Minister like this."

"The top scorer in six subjects really has the arrogance of the top scorer in six subjects."

"Tsk tsk, he is a young man after all. He is fearless. What he just said made my blood boil with excitement..."

Several Zhao envoys stood in Zhongshu Provincial Courtyard, also speechless for a long time.

Even though they had just met him, this young Daxia official left a very deep impression on them.

A young envoy looked at the direction he left, with a certain light flashing in his eyes, and whispered: "It must be him..."

At this time, the two ministers of Zhongshu came out of the yamen, bowed their hands to several envoys from the State of Zhao, and said: "Envoys please, Mr. Zuo Xiang is waiting for you in the yamen."

Several people came to sign several important treaties on cooperation between the two countries.

Regarding the details of the treaty, officials from the two countries have already discussed the details of the treaty in the past few days. They came to Zhongshu Province just to go through a process.

After seeing off the Zhao envoy, Prime Minister Zuo walked to the window with his hands behind his back, his eyes deep.

Compared with Li Xuanjing back then, Li Nuo today is even more sharp.

This is not surprising, because the person he is today is not the Li Xuanjing of the past. He is not alone. Behind him stands the most powerful official in the court.

What surprised him was that the reaction of the right party to Li Nuo's appointment as the Ministry of Punishment was particularly fierce.

Based on his years of understanding of the Right Prime Minister, this is not something that the Right Prime Minister can do.

There may be other reasons for this.

Zhongshu Zuo Shilang walked in from outside again, holding a dossier in his hand, handed it to Zuo Prime Minister with both hands, and said: "Sir, this is the dossier about Dongfang Bo that was found by the Ministry of Rites..."

The left minister took the file, walked to the table, and read it word by word.

The strategist who killed the second prince of Liang and wanted to make Daxia and Liang enemies was born and raised in Daxia. His ancestors were all Daxia citizens. Before he failed the imperial examination and left Daxia, all his experiences could be checked.

This person is innocent, and any experience can be verified. He cannot be a spy from another country.

But this is not good news.

He even hopes that this person is a spy from Zhao, Wei, Chu or Qi.

A strategist with a righteous spirit, all he did was for Daxia.

People dare not think about it carefully.

There must be accomplices behind him.

They started planning more than ten years ago, or even earlier.

He didn't know what these people were planning for the time being.

But he could be sure that it must be a shocking event.

He thought of Dongfang Bo's eyes when he committed suicide.

The righteous spirit hidden in his body should be deliberately revealed by him.

He still had some selfish motives after all.

Even if he could sacrifice for the righteousness in his heart, he didn't want to die silently and be misunderstood.

The left prime minister breathed a sigh of relief and whispered: "Who are you, what do you want to do..."

...

There are no secrets in Chang'an. The news that Li Nuo angrily scolded the right prime minister in the Secretariat soon spread to the three provinces. Soon after, the six ministries, nine temples, and other government offices also knew about it.

The left prime minister and the right prime minister are role models and models for all officials.

Even if it is His Majesty, they dare to point at his nose and scold him, and His Majesty has to be trained honestly.

It is hard to imagine that someone dared to speak rudely to him like this.

For a time, all the major government offices were talking about it, and the official business at hand was delayed a lot. After the officials of the Secretariat left the government, they were stopped by colleagues from other departments to ask them about the situation on the scene.

"What, he said that the right prime minister excluded dissidents, abused his power and abused his authority?"

"He also said that the right prime minister betrayed the trust of His Majesty!"

"As expected of the top scholar in the six departments, he is confident in what he says. If he wants to be any official, he can ask the court for any official position..."

"Of course he has the confidence. The Sifang Pavilion case, the Donggong case, and the Liang Embassy case were all solved by him. If I had this ability, I could be as arrogant as him..."

"The top scholar in the six departments served as a doctor in the Ministry of Rites, and later transferred to the Honglu Temple. It's too much to promote him and his official position at the same time. This time, I support the Honglu Temple Secretary..."

...

Just as the outside world was talking about it, Chang'an, a simple mansion.

This is an ordinary one-entry courtyard. Even the mansions of most ninth-rank officials are much better than here.

However, the people living in this small courtyard are not ordinary.

The right prime minister of Daxia lives in this ordinary house.

His Majesty had rewarded the Right Prime Minister with a mansion and servants several times, but he refused them all.

For decades, he has been living a simple and frugal life.

At this moment, the Right Prime Minister was sitting in the courtyard, with only a bowl of porridge and a plate of pickles on the stone table in front of him.

A figure walked in from outside, walked slowly to his side, bowed and said, "Teacher."

The Right Prime Minister looked back and said, "You are here. Have you eaten? If not, sit down and eat something."

"Disciple has eaten." The middle-aged official shook his head and then said, "The Secretariat has issued a transfer order, and he finally went to the Ministry of Justice."

The Right Prime Minister gently put down his chopsticks and said softly, "I didn't expect that no matter how much I tried to stop him from going to the Ministry of Justice, I still couldn't stop him. The plan was ruined by him at the Sifang Pavilion, and it was the same this time. Is this God's will?"
