The concubine has a heart disease and needs to be pampered!

"Don't you dare? I think you are very brave." Ning Wei said coldly.

Li Qian knelt there, not daring to say anything.

Lin Fei saw this in his eyes, stood up, and said, "Your Majesty, Mr. Li doesn't dare. He is a subject of the Emperor, how dare he act recklessly. Is there some misunderstanding behind this?"

Before Lin Fei could finish his sentence, Mo Xuan interrupted directly, "Your Prime Minister is pleading for a person who is at fault? Don't forget, Mr. Prime Minister, he is your direct subordinate. He is at fault. You This boss is also to blame. The Prime Minister has not even been cleared of the suspicion of being lax at the official level, and now he has to intercede for a minister of the household department who is full of mistakes. The Prime Minister is really serious to his subordinates. Well, if you don’t know, let people think that they are not the emperor’s courtiers, but your Lin Fei’s courtiers.”

When such words spread in the Golden Luan Hall, the officials above the court were instantly shocked, but how dare those people below stand up and speak rashly.

Lin Fei squinted at Mo Xuan, "What is the identity of Princess Cheng who said this? As a princess, she can't stay in the back house of the palace, but she actually stands in this court to discuss government affairs. Has Princess Cheng forgotten that she was born in the kingdom of heaven? , Is it right for you, a foreigner, to make unreasonable comments on the government of our Eastern Sea Kingdom?"

Ning Yi sneered, "Master Lin thinks this king's concubine is an outsider? Since he has this ability, he has the emperor's permission to investigate those old accounts of the household department, so he can naturally stand in this court, and now the accounts are clear. In front of you, you don't pursue the guilty, but you use some insignificant things to say that you are capable. Is Lin Xiang trying to cover these sinners? Could it be that Lin Xiang stood above the court and forgot about this group of criminals? The ministers are all the emperor's ministers, and so are you, I see, Lin Xiang has been in a high position all these years, I am afraid that he has thrown away the way of the emperor and ministers long ago."

Ning Wei calmly said: "President Lin should not interfere with the affairs of the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Households. King Cheng has already started the affairs of the Ministry of Officials, so he can simply work hard for a few more days to rectify the Ministry of Officials from top to bottom. , Princess Cheng..."

"Your Majesty, you might as well hand over the affairs of the Ministry of Accounts to a more suitable person. Yesterday the Ministry of Accounts checked the accounts, and then went into the palace treasury to get those old accounts. Someone pointed out that I was able to get what I wanted so accurately. This person is very important to the Ministry of Accounts I know the accounts very well, after all I don't know the way." Mo Xuan turned to continue and said: "Qi Sheng, the servant of the household department, is pertinent, and he does things in a down-to-earth manner. There should be such a person."

"You have said so, so I naturally believe your vision." Ning Wei said indifferently, and turned to look at Lin Fei over there, "The Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Households play a vital role among the six departments, and now one after another Lin Xiang thought it was a hard work for the mistakes, and now that it is the end of the year, Lin Xiang should also take a good rest, and don’t have to intervene in the affairs of the six ministries. Good year-end sacrifices are just that, as for the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of Industry, follow the steps and submit all the matters to me directly, so don't disturb Lin Xiang's rest."

Lin Fei was stunned when he heard such an order, "Your Majesty, my humble minister..." After all, he didn't say these words after seeing the look in the eyes of the man on the dragon chair.

Ning Wei ignored it, and then said: "The evidence of the crime committed by Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Chen Yuan, is solid. Those directly involved in it will be killed with sticks, all the women in the mansion will be demoted to official slaves, all minors will be exiled, and they will not be allowed to enter Beijing forever; Li Qian, Minister of the Household Department, disturbed the discipline of the Household Department, embezzled the treasury's property for private use, confiscated all family property, and dismissed him for investigation."

As the words fell, Eunuch Gao, who was standing by the side, looked at the civil and military officials, and said loudly: "There is a book to play, and there is nothing to retreat to the court."

All of a sudden, everyone in the court welcomed the emperor to leave, but the discussion in private became more and more clear.

"The emperor asked the prime minister to stay in the mansion to rest. This is an unprecedented thing. Today something really happened."

"The Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Households have become like this. These two ministers are people trusted by the prime minister. Such a trouble happened, and it is undeniable. It is good that the emperor did not pursue it. However, the Ministry of Officials The Ministry of Hehu fell, and the emperor ordered the other four departments to act on their own, and to report to the emperor directly, is this going to let Prime Minister Lin rest forever?"

"Since the emperor ascended the throne, he has been limited by the prime minister. Since Princess Cheng came, she first moved the position of the commander of the imperial army, and now she is the Minister of the Ministry of Officials and the Minister of the Ministry of Households. At the beginning, she was expected to become Princess Cheng. Second Miss Lin is no longer possible now, and Prime Minister Lin was forced by the emperor to take a rest in the mansion, which makes people think of the division of the court in the Tianquan Kingdom, I am afraid that the emperor wants to follow the example of the Tianquan Kingdom and abolish the position of prime minister."

"It's no wonder why Lin Xiang forced the emperor to be so urgent. If you think about what Princess Cheng said, it makes sense. Are these six ministers the emperor's courtiers or Lin Xiang's courtiers?"

"These actions of the emperor, and the cooperation of Cheng Wang and his wife, the court will no longer have a foothold for the Lin family."

"Whether it has nothing to do with us, the emperor has his own plans, and it's not our turn to worry about it."

"If I were Prime Minister Lin, I should abide by my duties. It is indeed beautiful to have power in the court, but the emperor doesn't think so."

"Cough cough, don't say a few words." One of them motioned to a few of them who were discussing, and saw Ning Yi, Mo Xuan, Lin Fei who happened to be walking by from the side...

Coming out of the Golden Luan Hall, Lin Fei looked at Ning Yi and Mo Xuan, "What King Cheng and Princess Cheng have done is really capable, I admire you."

Ning Yi snorted coldly, "It doesn't matter if you admire it or not, Prime Minister Lin still obeyed the imperial brother's will and rested in the prime minister's mansion peacefully. The imperial brother took care of the loyalty of the Lin family for generations and assisted the successive kings of the Eastern Sea Kingdom. The Ministry of Households didn’t pay attention to Lin Xiang’s fault. Lin Xiang should be grateful for the emperor’s kindness. Yes, the Lin family has indeed reached the most prosperous period of the Lin family in Lin Xiang’s hands, but Lin Xiang seems to have long forgotten the duty that you, a loyal minister of the Lin family, should have. , has long since lost the appearance that a courtier should have."

"You don't need to worry about the matter of this official, King Cheng."

"As Lin Xiang is such a smart person, how could he not know the truth of this, and there is no need for me to worry about it."

Lin Fei glanced coldly at the two people standing in front of him, and was about to leave straight away, when suddenly a member of the palace rushed over, "Master Prime Minister, it's not good, Empress Empress..." The palace official saw the person standing next to him Ning Yi and Mo Xuan, who were listening, swallowed the words abruptly when they came to their lips.

Mo Xuan looked at Ning Yi, and said with a smile: "Master, it's freezing outside, let's hurry out of the palace and go back to the mansion. Brother Huang will hand over the affairs of the officials to Xianggong, let's go first, besides, we Here, it's also preventing others from whispering, isn't it?"

Ning Yi smiled lightly at Mo Xuan, "Yes, let's go." While speaking, he hugged Mo Xuan in his arms and walked straight out of the palace.

Lin Fei looked at the palace man with a condensed expression, and asked, "What's going on?"

The palace people responded uneasy: "Your Majesty, there was a problem with the appearance arranged in the harem. The man has already been taken down by the empress dowager. After the emperor went to court, he heard the message from the empress dowager and went straight to the Fengyi Palace of the empress dowager." Go, this matter involves the murder of a pregnant concubine, my lord, what should I do."

"Queen?" Lin Fei frowned. "This matter is arranged carefully, how would the Queen Mother know?"

"This is exactly where the confusion is. I don't know where the news leaked out. The Empress Dowager actually seized the chess piece laid by the lord on the spot. On the side of the empress, the lord must think of a way now."

Lin Fei was in deep thought when suddenly a voice sounded from the side, "I thought the Prime Minister had already left the palace and returned to the mansion, but fortunately he came in time."

"Eunuch Gao came here on purpose, what's the matter?"

"The emperor sent a summons to ask the Prime Minister to go to Fengyi Palace now."

Lin Fei knew a general idea when he heard this, and he could only follow Eunuch Gao all the way to Fengyi Palace.

At this moment, in Fengyi Palace.

Lin Fei walked into the hall, saw the empress dowager and the emperor sitting upright, and saw the kneeling person next to him.

Ning Wei looked at Lin Fei, and asked in a cold voice: "Master Lin knows this person, Xiangke Lin is really good at it, he has always had a hand in the harem, and now even my concubine who is pregnant in the harem is at the mercy of Lin Xiang .”

Lin Ting immediately knelt down there, "Your Majesty, this matter is all the concubine's idea. The concubine has not had any children for a long time, and she only wants to have a child to marry her. That's why she made such a bad plan. It has nothing to do with the concubine's father."

"The queen is willing to excuse your father." Ning Wei said in a cold voice, "It seems that I don't need to let Prime Minister Lin rest in the prime minister's residence."

Lin Fei raised his eyes and looked at the person sitting in front of him, "Why, is the emperor planning to directly order the execution of the humble minister?"

"Minister? You still know that you are my minister." Ning Wei said in a deep voice, "If you are willing to keep your Lin family's name for generations to come, and preserve the name of Lin family's loyalty for generations, I will allow you to retire and return home. From now on, I will withdraw from the court and leave Yingzhou City. As for the queen, I will set up a Buddhist hall in Fengyi Palace to preserve her name as queen, and let her stay in Fengyi Palace with the ancient Buddha with blue lights every day, all of you Lin family If you are obsessed with the name of this life and want to ruin the Lin family, I don't have to take care of it."

"The emperor is really thoughtful. The Lin family has a deep foundation. Even if they are not in the court, the power of the side clans outside is not small. After these things happen one after another, the emperor is just for today's step. He will take care of the six departments so that the humble officials will have no trouble in the court." Standing ground, the emperor's goal has been achieved."

Empress Dowager Zhang looked at Lin Fei, "Don't get me wrong about the emperor's purpose, this world is the emperor's world."

Lin Fei chuckled and replied, "Yes."

Lin Ting already knew about those in the court hall, starting from the step of the Imperial Army, and then to the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Households. Now that the matter of the harem has been seized by the Empress Dowager, she may have made a mistake from the beginning. It is the most comprehensive way to get the current result. Yes, she kowtowed to the person sitting upright, "Thank you, my concubine, for your kindness."

After that, Empress Dowager Zhang and Ning Wei got up and left from Fengyi Palace.

Lin Fei looked at Lin Ting, who was kneeling beside him, and was about to speak, when Lin Ting said solemnly, "Father, let's stop here! The ones that my father is attached to in the court are restricted everywhere, and the official department and the household department are the best. No matter how many examples there are, is it possible that we really want to become an enemy of the emperor and make trouble as a subject? Father, the name of the Lin family for generations cannot be ruined in our hands."

Lin Fei, who heard these words, stared intently at his daughter. Looking back on the past few years, it was useless after all.
