Master Tai Tu, who had never been to court, finally put on his formal court clothes, and waited outside the hall with others.

"You are here today, it seems that there is indeed a big event." Si Zhi looked around at Yang Nian, and said with a smile, "Why, you want to compete with me for the opportunity to be sent to South Vietnam?"

"I don't dare," Yang Nian waved his hand, "If I can do what you do twice, I won't be an idle official."

"One day you don't want to be an idle official anymore, just let me know, and I'll send the photo seal to your house." Jiang Ruofeng joked.

The three of them talked and laughed together, which aroused the envy of many people. After all, they are the top three in the same class, and they have both become high-ranking officials. It is really rare that their relationship is still the same.

Li Sheng came a bit late. When he woke up in the morning, he found that Yang Nian had tied himself to the bed, and his limbs were tied several times. Even if he was strong, it would take a lot of time to break free.Yang Nian was standing next to him, washing and dressing slowly, and made a funny face for him when he was about to leave.

Li Sheng's expression was not good, and he walked past Yang Nian without saying hello, and directly jumped into the ranks of generals.

"Have you had a fight?" Jiang Ruofeng asked in Yang Nian's ear.

"If you want to say that everyone is clear about your affairs, why make a time difference and deliberately avoid suspicion." Si Zhi guessed Yang Nian's thoughts all at once.

"It's still a matter of superficial effort, we both discussed it." Yang Nian smiled nonchalantly, "Did the matter of Doctor Yushi be settled?"

"Well, I didn't expect that the most upright and honest doctor Yushi would bend the law to such an extent," Jiang Ruofeng replied, "I stayed up all night to write the scripture."

"I know, I saw Yao'er come to my house early this morning to take an old ginseng, and said to make up for you."

"Your Madam is really good at making use of it." Si Zhi held back his smile, watching Jiang Ruofeng shake his head helplessly.

"Everyone, it's time." Shen Miao pressed the long sword in his hand, took a deep breath, "Open the door!"

The gate of the main hall opened in response, and all the officials filed in, standing together according to their ranks and departments.When Shen Miao gave another order, they all knelt on the ground, lowered their bodies and shouted long live three times.

Li Hao raised his hand from the dragon chair, condescendingly, "Stay flat."

"Start playing if there is something to do, and leave the court if there is nothing to do." The voice of the old eunuch standing next to Li Hao was so sharp that Yang Nian couldn't help but plug his ears.

Jiang Ruofeng has already stepped forward, "The imperial censor has misbehaved, violated the law knowingly, and used public equipment for private use. It is really disgusting. I have prepared a memorial, and I beg the emperor to deal with it severely." He took out the memorial from his wide sleeve and put it on the Palm, upward in one fell swoop.

Li Hao was shocked when he heard the words, but he quickly concealed his emotions, and asked the eunuch beside him to take Jiang Ruofeng's memorial, "This matter needs to be investigated, we can't just listen to one side of the story and pass it on to Doctor Yushi."

The Minister of the Ministry of Punishment hurried forward, "According to the law, the doctor Yushi has been imprisoned in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment."

"What," Li Hao asked while suppressing his anger, "Which law is it?"

"Three officials of the second grade or above who jointly participate in the performance will be sent to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice regardless of the reason, and will be tried by the third division." Yang Nian said quietly.

"Which two more?" Li Hao asked again.

"My lord," Shen Miao knelt down on one knee, "this man is the sinner Rongtian's subordinate, who has committed many crimes. He was an accomplice in the case of Lu Zhiyun in the late emperor's case, but the late emperor was merciful and only demoted him. If you don’t repent, you will get worse.”

"There is also a minister," the Minister of the Ministry of Officials also knelt on the ground at the same time, "while this person was on duty in the Ministry of Officials, he actually took advantage of his position to make profits for his family members, and he acted as a traitor."

"You found it all yesterday?" Li Hao snorted coldly.

No one answered, Li Hao felt that he was really ridiculous, gritted his teeth and looked at Yang Nian, "I want to ask the Grand Tutor, who made this law of Chu."

"When I returned to the emperor, it was established when I was born, and the ancestors of my ministers also participated in the compilation."

"Okay," Li Hao nodded, "Then I will order you to repair it now."

"I don't know which one the emperor wants to change?"

"Taking back the power of the generals to dispatch soldiers, it all belongs to the Ministry of War, and the power to appoint generals and send troops belongs to the top." Li Hao has already decided to break the pot, anyway, his only purpose is this one.

As soon as he said this, there was an uproar in the hall, and the generals all stared wide-eyed, at a loss for what to do.

Shi Lingxin took the lead and knelt down, "Think twice, Your Majesty."

When the Grand Marshal knelt down, the other generals also knelt down one after another, "Think twice, Your Majesty."

"Is there such a thing in the laws of Chu that all decrees are the highest will?" Li Hao asked Yang Nian again.

Yang Nian smiled and nodded, but his tone was sarcasm, "There is such a sentence."

"That's good, I'll leave this job to the Taifu, and the Taifu can transfer all the staff at will."

"No, Your Majesty," the Minister of the Ministry of War said first, "Most of the officials in the Ministry of War are civil servants and don't know how to fight. If the power of commanding the army is assigned to the Ministry of War, it will be convenient for the unified deployment at that time. The impermanent soldiers will not be the same as Is the previous court consistent?"

"You mean, if I do this, the state of Chu will be destroyed like the previous dynasty?" Li Hao laughed angrily. He originally wanted to see how many people in the court did not listen to him. Forget about the military generals, but I didn't expect civil servants to have them too.

How could there be only one Minister of the Ministry of War among the civil servants.

Immediately afterwards, the people from the six divisions and nine ministers all had the same plan and prostrated themselves on the ground, "Think twice, Your Majesty."

Li Hao looked at the court quietly, only Li Sheng who was indifferent and Yang Nian who didn't care were left standing straight.The two of them, one on the left and one on the right, stood side by side with calm faces, but in Li Hao's eyes, they were the biggest irony to him.

He placed his final bet on Yang Nian. He didn't believe that Yang Nian, who grew up with him, would abandon him at such a juncture.

Yang Nian raised his head, as if he saw the thin child again, huddled behind the wide dragon chair with aggrieved face, looking at himself for help.He couldn't bear it, but standing beside him was Li Sheng.He went to court today just to intimidate the emperor, and to make him understand the price of moving Li Sheng.It is impossible for him to give up because of a little pity in his heart.

Yang Nian lifted the hem of his clothes, dropped his knees to the ground, closed his eyes, and said in a deep voice, "Think twice, Your Majesty."

"Hahaha," Li Hao burst out laughing suddenly. He stood up from the dragon chair and walked down the hall, passing by every courtier who had sworn to be loyal to him, passing by those who held his hand and led him to the throne. Yang Nian... the more he laughed, the louder his voice became, until his throat was choked, he coughed several times, and even tears flowed down his face.

He left the main hall in such a state of embarrassment.
