In a blink of an eye, it was the first day of May, another big court meeting.

After the scheduled project of the Grand Court Assembly——the six departments and their subordinate yamen's government affairs report, the Grand Court Assembly ushered in a time for verbal quarrels.

Such quarrels are indispensable for Qi Yunheng, and they are an important channel for him to spy on the undercurrent and balance the political situation.

But what bothers Ouyang the most is this period of time, even if he wants to take a nap, he can't live in peace.

Especially as it is today, there are always people who want to drag him into the water, to "be in harmony with them" - to drag him into arguing.

Due to conclusive evidence and Qi Yunheng's vigorous and resolute actions, the Duke of Qin's private possession of prohibited objects was not directly convicted, but there was not much room for comment before Duke Qin returned to Beijing in the Song Dynasty.As a result, the officials with excess energy targeted Ouyang, impeaching him for forcibly breaking into the Duke of Qin's mansion, and for Ou Jing's injury to Duke Qin's wife.

Because there are a lot of noisy people, even Ouyang has always disliked verbal disputes with others, so he couldn't help itching his hands. He wanted to let these guys know that compared with absolute violence, the speed of killing people with words is too fast. It's too slow, and it's too risky.

Violence really can't solve everything, but it can definitely solve a person, and anyone.

When one person after another, or even tens of thousands of people, are all resolved by violence, the problems caused by them will naturally not be a problem.

But it's a pity that before Ouyang decided which one to use first, someone jumped out unconsciously and blocked the saliva for him on his own initiative.

Minister of punishment, Zhu Bian.

Maybe it's not self-assessment, but Qi Yunheng's long-standing arrangements.

After all, Qi Yunheng had promised a long time ago that as long as Ouyang cleaned up the Duke Qin's mansion, he would wipe Ouyang's ass.

Zhu Bian did not exonerate Ouyang from the crime, but cleverly classified the behavior of Ouyang and Oujing into the category of civil disputes, and then made the impeachment of Ouyang based on the keynote of "if the people do not vote, the officials will not be prosecuted". Find out the sufferer first—according to custom, officials can hear about things; but according to the law, officials under the Ministry of Punishment cannot open a case based on hearsay, let alone take it for granted and judge the case on unwarranted grounds.

If the sufferer does not come forward, the matter cannot be filed for trial, and Nine Thousand Years is naturally not responsible for any crimes, let alone arguing in the court, wasting the precious time of His Majesty the Emperor and the courtiers.

"Could it be that your mother and your daughter-in-law quarreled, and you also want to write a memorial, please Your Majesty to decide?!" Zhu Bian made a final decision, and silenced the last speaker who wanted to argue with him.

Ouyang watched coldly, staying out of the matter, as if he had nothing to do with this matter.

There is no way, with Ouyang's personality and experience, I really can't be moved by Zhu Bian's move. I just feel that he is meddling in his own business, which hinders his pleasure of beating people himself, and creates hidden dangers for himself, which will be the next time and even the next time. The next impeachment is foreshadowing.

Debate is really a meaningless act.

The two most difficult things in the world, one is to put money from other people's pockets into your own pocket, and the other is to put the thoughts in your own head into other people's heads.

Debate can silence an opponent, but it cannot change the opponent's point of view.

What's more, the verbal dispute is really painless, and it can't make people remember the lesson. As time goes by, the loser will make a comeback-if you lose in the bickering, you will lose nothing. Naturally, the more frustrated you become, the more courageous you are. Repeated defeats.

So, it's better to just raise your fist and beat your opponent to pieces.

In this way, the loser can remember the lesson, and the next time he wants to quarrel with others, he will think twice, and first weigh whether he can bear the pain and afford the medicine.

For example, the officials who impeached Ouyang would only remember that they had never quarreled with Zhu Bian, and would not think of the price they would bear for impeaching the emperor's husband Jiuqian.

From the perspective of humanism and the rule of law, such a process and result are fair and correct.

But for Ouyang himself, doing so is simply a waste of time over and over again, meaningless.

In addition, Ouyang was in a bad mood today - when he entered the palace in the morning, Qi Yunheng only had breakfast with him, did nothing else, and didn't even say much. As soon as Zhu Bian was disturbed, the unhappiness in his heart suddenly increased by [-]%.

So, as soon as the court meeting was over, Ouyang turned around and left Xuanyuan Palace without looking back.

Qi Yunheng felt Ouyang's unhappiness, but he was helpless and powerless.

In the morning, he also wanted to be gentle with Ouyang as always, but his body was not up to par. Since he came back from Ouyang's mansion last time, his spirit was not very good, and his body was also a little worried, which made him feel powerless, so he could only He watched Ouyang's face turn from sunny to cloudy, and his two vermilion lips also changed from the first quarter moon to the last quarter moon.

Qi Yunheng wanted to explain, but he was unwilling to admit that he was unwell, and the imperial physician did not diagnose any problem during his routine pulse diagnosis yesterday, which made Qi Yunheng worry a little, whether he was getting old and unable to do what he wanted.

But after thinking about it, Qi Yunheng became suspicious again.

When Ouyang was in the palace, he never had any problems even if he played songs every day.

Why is Ouyang out of the palace, without the consumption of the bed, his body is getting worse day by day?

With such a comparison, Qi Yunheng's paranoia broke out completely, and he was going to order someone to inspect his basic necessities of life to see if someone had tampered with it.

As soon as the Great Court Meeting is over, Qi Yunheng will hand over the matter to Eunuch Wei.

However, before Eunuch Wei could find out the results, something went wrong when Qi Yunheng summoned the six ministers, his eyes darkened, and he fell down.

Thanks to Eunuch Wei's kung fu, he quickly supported him, so that he didn't bump into the table and hurt his head and face.

"Quickly call the imperial husband into the palace." Qi Yunheng only had time to say this before he passed out completely.

When the confidant eunuch sent by Eunuch Wei came to Ouyang's mansion, Ouyang was taking lunch to vent his anger.

As soon as he heard that Qi Yunheng had passed out, Ouyang realized that he had "mistaken" Qi Yunheng again, and immediately stood up, "Why did you leave the palace? Did you come out?"

"Riding... riding a horse." The little eunuch was a little puzzled, but he answered truthfully.

He was also Qi Yunheng's soldier originally, and he was Wei Yan's Eunuch Wei's personal soldier. He was good at fighting on horseback.After Wei Yanjing died, he felt that there was no future for him to stay in the army, and his family did not lack a son like him, so he became ruthless and followed Wei Yan into the palace to seek wealth by the emperor's side.

"Very well, turn around and get on the horse, we will enter the palace right away."

Ouyang didn't waste any more time changing clothes, he directly ordered the butler Zhuang to fetch a horse, jumped on it, and rushed to the palace with the little eunuch.

When Ouyang arrived at the palace, the palace gate was already under martial law. Even the guards guarding the gate all recognized him as the emperor's husband, they still had to look at the pure gold badge that the little eunuch got from Eunuch Wei before sending them away. into the palace.

There are three such golden waist cards, one is in the hands of Eunuch Wei, one is in the hands of Gao Ming, and the other is kept by Qi Yunheng himself. When Ouyang moved out of the summer palace, he secretly gave it to his royal husband.

One side of the golden waist card is printed with "As I come in person" and the other side is printed with "Unimpeded", its purpose is to ignore the palace ban and enter and leave the palace gate at will when needed.

Because of the waist card in hand and the situation was urgent, Ouyang and the little eunuch did not get off their horses and change trains after entering the palace.

The six ministers were still there, and several imperial physicians had been "invited" over earlier, and they were gathering in the hall of the apse to discuss Qi Yunheng's "illness".

"How is your Majesty?" Ouyang walked over quickly and asked bluntly.

Several imperial physicians looked at each other, but no one answered.

Seeing this, Ouyang didn't ask any more questions at all, and walked directly to the inner room further past the group of imperial doctors who didn't know the so-called.

"Nine thousand years old, please stay!" Ji Hong, Minister of Rites, walked over quickly, obviously trying to stop Ouyang.

There was no need for Ouyang to respond, the little eunuch took a step forward, blocked Ji Hong who wanted to stop him, raised the golden waist card in his hand, waved it in front of Ji Hong, and said with a straight face: "Nine thousand years old is Came here upon summoning, and please don’t hinder Nine Thousand Years Old’s audience, Mr. Ji.”

"I..." Ji Hong opened his mouth, intending to explain a few words, but the little eunuch didn't say much to him, turned around and chased after Ouyang, leaving only the back of Ji Hong's head black.

"What does Lord Ji want to say to Jiuqiantui?" Zhu Bian leaned forward and asked curiously.

"I just want to ask Jiu Qiansui to take over the two princes, and then discuss what to do next." Ji Hong looked depressed and innocent.

As soon as Qi Yunheng passed out, Eunuch Wei arranged the palace ban on his own initiative, blocked the news, and detained all six ministers in the Qiankun Palace.

Ji Hong and the others couldn't get out of the Qiankun Palace, let alone contact outsiders.However, the imperial physician was at a loss as to what to do. He couldn't tell the illness and couldn't come up with a diagnosis and treatment method, which made Ji Hong and the others even more anxious, and worried that the building would collapse.

"Your Majesty's situation is still uncertain, Mr. Ji is too eager." Zhu Bian curled his lips, showing disapproval.

"Master Zhu is quite leisurely!" Ji Hong was already anxious, but when Zhu Bian said this, he immediately sarcastically returned.

"Both of you, stay calm and don't be impatient!" Mi Su, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, hurried over to persuade them, but they didn't make a real quarrel.

The remaining Ministers of the Household Department Wan Shan, Minister of the Ministry of War Huo Bingshen, and Minister of the Ministry of Industry Yuan Zhiwang were all silent, either sitting or standing, with unclear attitudes.

Zhu Bian looked at the three of them out of the corner of his eye, and felt that the bickering between himself and Ji Hong was too boring, just like playing monkeys for people to watch, so he followed the steps built by Mi Su and stopped the provocation.

At this time Ouyang had already entered the inner room for Qi Yunheng to rest.

Besides Eunuch Wei who was "controlling" the situation, Gao Ming and Pan Wuchun also appeared here, standing around Qi Yunheng's bed.

Seeing the three of them, and then comparing the six ministers who were left outside, it is self-evident that they are far and near.

But now is not the time to draw a map of the interpersonal relationship for Qi Yunheng's subordinates.

"What's the matter, Your Majesty?" Ouyang was guided by Eunuch Wei to Qi Yunheng's side, sat sideways on the edge of the bed where he was lying, and asked Eunuch Wei while reaching out to feel Qi Yunheng's pulse.

"Your servant does not know." Eunuch Wei briefly described the process of Qi Yunheng's fainting, and then continued with a gloomy face, "Your Majesty has been in poor spirits for the past few days, but the imperial physician did not diagnose any problems when he took the pulse. Still can't find the reason. At the end of the Great Court Meeting, His Majesty suspected that there was something wrong with the eating utensils around him, and ordered me to wait for inspection, but the servant just sent someone to take a general look, and did not find out the problem..."

"Don't look any further, it's not about food and utensils."

Before Eunuch Wei could finish speaking, Ouyang had already figured out the result, and moved his finger away from Qi Yunheng's pulse.

Eunuch Wei was stunned, and subconsciously looked at Ouyang's face, and found that his expression was obviously much more relaxed, but... no matter how you look at it, it makes people feel a little weird.

"Excuse me, nine thousand years old, Your Majesty, this is..." Eunuch Wei asked tentatively.

"It's nothing, it's just overtired." Ouyang replied indifferently.
