It's hard to tell whether this kid is audacious or really stupid, he dared to use Xiao Beicheng to blackmail Junziyou, maybe he didn't know about the scene they performed at the Luhua Banquet last night.

Jun Ziyou immediately slapped his thigh, hooked his fingers towards Xiao Junze, the latter didn't know why, and leaned forward with confusion, unexpectedly, he slapped him on the head, the slap was a bit heavy, but luckily it hit him on the shoulder.

Xiao Junze was so frightened that he jumped up, subconsciously wanted to hide, and was worried about losing face, so he just ate it in a daze, and after being beaten, he realized that he was now the prince of the dynasty, the master of the East Palace, and was provoked by him It's even more embarrassing.

"Are you... are you afraid that you won't be able to find out the results, so you will refuse like this, and you don't even want King Jin? Heh, the dignified young minister of Dali Temple, can you only investigate some small cases of unscrupulous people hurting people and killing people?"

"Boy, you don't need to irritate me. Since you have begged me, you know that Ye Lanchen and I don't get along. It's naive to ask me to help you just because King Jin is in your hands. I'm afraid you don't know." The relationship between me and him broke down, and I almost stabbed each other with a knife, right?"

Sure enough, embarrassment appeared on Xiao Junze's face, he watched the gentleman for a long time, made sure that there was no turning point after his words, and stood up with a sigh.

"I don't know the heights of the heavens and the earth. Please don't spread the matter today. I don't want Mr. Ye to be implicated because of me. This matter is to tear his scars and expose his bloody old wounds. I...these For years, he has been in poor health, I am afraid that he will not be able to bear it, and will..."

Jun Ziyou was surprised, he didn't expect that this ignorant boy would have such exquisite thoughts, he began to wonder what kind of fate Ye Lanchen, an indifferent man, would have with the little prince of the deep palace.

Xiao Junze walked out in a daze, suddenly stopped, turned his head suddenly, and found somewhere that he didn't notice, it seemed that there was someone who had been ignored by him from the beginning to the end. The...doctor of his supplements?

Realizing that his gaze was on her like a knife, Jiang Yanqing raised her hands to show her innocence, chewing half of an old ginseng beard, and said with a playful smile: "It's not that I eavesdropped, it's the prince You have to tell me."

Xiao Junze's face was livid, he gritted his teeth and looked at the two old bastards who were riding on his head and doing nothing wrong, knowing that there would be no trouble, he suppressed the anger in his stomach and couldn't let it out, after a while, his face turned red again.

The gentleman gave a "tsk", "blue and green, blue and purple, are you singing here? You don't have to, I just say that I don't agree with Mr. Ye, and I advise you not to use King Jin to threaten me, and you don't have to." Say no to helping you."

The prince's eyes lit up when he heard the joke.

"No matter how you say it, you are still a student I haven't warmed up yet, baby, you have to believe in your position in my heart, and you don't have to compare yourself with others. Of course, I don't force you to admit from the bottom of my heart that I am an old man with no key The guy will be your teacher, except when you are acting in front of outsiders, you can even call me your husband."

Xiao Junze: "..."

A certain Erlang raised his legs, knocked on the table, and glanced at Jiang Yanqing who was hanging high up: "When Mr. Ye had an accident, this kid was still running around in crotch pants. He didn't know about it. How much do you know?" Can you find out one or two?"

Before the other party answered, Xiao Junze became unhappy, "I was already nine years old at that time, so I wouldn't..."

"You are still not weaned in my eyes, otherwise, why would you go to Master when you encounter problems. Jiang Yanqing, don't eat, I'm asking you!"

If it weren't for the fact that he didn't have Zhang long legs and couldn't kick that dog with one kick, Jun Ziyou would definitely let him spit out the food he poured in just now.

The other party was not in a hurry when he saw that his hair was blown up like Xiao Hei, he slowly licked his oily fingers, hiccupped, thumped his choked chest, leaned forward slightly, and moved a little so that he could hold his stomach Taking back the comfortable posture, he glanced at Xiao Junze with a smile.

"Speaking of Master Ye, he was also a legend back then."

Seeing that Xiao Junze opened his eyes slightly, pursed his lips and listened seriously, Junziyou knew that this kid also knew nothing about what happened back then, but he didn't know where his obsession came from, and he insisted on finding out.

Why?Could it be that he and Ye Lanchen had some shady affair...

"My lord, are you listening?"

The audience was absent-minded, and Jiang Yanqing was rather dissatisfied. She stopped talking just after a few words, turned her head and extended her claws to a small bowl of tortoise jelly that had not been touched before, and was slapped back by that person again. Reluctantly, he continued.

"Where did you just say that? By the way, when it comes to this old Mr. Ye, his name is Ye Suifeng. He was a top three in high school at a young age. He was in the same class as Mr. Lin Xici, and he won the Tanhua that year."

However, with Lin Xici as a peerless and talented champion, Ye Suifeng is still a nobody who gets no attention even if he is in high school. Instead, he was sent to the Imperial College for further studies.

After two years when no one cared about him, Li Sansi, who happened to meet him, discovered his talent. He used the excuse of recommending talents, went to Xianzong to say a few good words, and then found him an errand in the Ministry of Punishment. .

Ye Suifeng was grateful for Li Sansi's kindness, he was careful in doing things, and never overstepped. It took him two years to climb from the prison to Yuanwailang. Even Li Sansi felt incredible, thinking that such a rare talent must have a bright future. He was given multiple chances for promotion.

And Ye Suifeng is also very upbeat, with the help of Li Sansi, he was promoted to the Ministry of Finance, and was once on an equal footing with Lin Xici who was dismissed.

"Master Lin was framed by traitors back then, and the courtier charged him with 'conspiracy'. Unfortunately, this incident involved Lord Ye who had been very close to him. Because of him, Lord Ye was imprisoned in the prison. For three years, when it was released, it was tortured beyond recognition."

Others don't need to know what happened back then, and they may misunderstand people, but the person who knows Lin Xici's lack of rebellious intentions is Xianzong. Cleaned up Ye Suifeng's grievances and restored him to his original post.

"But at that time, there was a person who was skeptical about Master Lin's death. Even though the case had been suppressed for many years, he still used his authority to investigate, arrested and tortured the people involved in the case. He wanted to learn from them, so he killed him. Quite a few, but there has been no progress, so that later his behavior caught the attention of the emperor, who was annoyed and ordered him to suspend his duties for self-examination, and sealed up the Dali Temple. Speaking of which, you should have guessed the identity of this person."

Si Ye, Si Ye again...

Jun Ziyou rubbed his aching forehead, he really couldn't figure out what it meant that this person had disappeared for many years, almost making people forget his existence, but now he rushed to jump in front of him again.

But soon he realized that it wasn't that Si Ye had really stopped for so many years, which made him underestimate the enemy and was caught off guard, but that someone deliberately blocked Si Ye's malice and backstabbing, so he was able to survive for so long , were not wounded by the blade.

"...Old Marquis?"

Jun Ziyou suddenly remembered that in Qin Zhiyu's narration of the past, the traces of Si Ye's existence had been deliberately deleted. From the beginning to the end, he was only suppressed by Lin Xici and Yushitai and finally went to the Houfu Xingshi to question him Appeared twice.

If he had had the courage to confront Qin Zhiyu who returned to Beijing with extraordinary achievements and honors, he would not have been a dumb person who dared not speak out against Lin Xici's actions in the past few years.

What did Qin Zhiyu hide, what was his purpose, and what ability did Si Ye have that made him so afraid that he had to cover it up?

Jun Ziyou was so engrossed in his thoughts that he didn't even pay attention to what Jiang Yanqing said later, until Xiao Junze raised his hand and shook it in front of his eyes before he came back to his senses, "What did you say..."

"I said, Ye Suifeng died violently."

Jiang Yanqing pushed away the dishes in front of her, as if she felt nauseated after eating too much, she got up and walked between the two of them, bent down, glanced at Junziyou, then looked at Xiao Junze, who was very close to him , the tone is quiet, a little scary.

"The day before his death, an envoy from the Western Regions presented a nine-colored deer with bright fur. It looks like the color that can only be obtained by overturning the Danqing plate and buckling the body, but the old yellow-haired brag is that A sign of auspiciousness, all the ministers would slap the emperor as soon as they caught a fart, and coaxed the emperor to see who could put this auspiciousness in his pocket, so they set up a hunt."

Three hundred miles outside the capital city, there is a royal hunting ground built during the previous dynasty. On weekdays, there are only a few grooms here to take good care of the emperor's horses. Grab a few rare and exotic beasts and go around the forest.

When the emperor came, there would be a special person responsible for frightening wild beasts with things like horse whips and cannons, and driving all four-legged ones to the emperor.

To put it bluntly, it is a group of officials who accompany the Lord Long Live to have fun. Regardless of academics or martial arts, any officials who want to climb up will seize the opportunity to hug the emperor's thigh. , No matter how bad you are, you can get a lot of rewards, and you can make a profit without losing money.

Of course, this kind of occasion is more revealing of the emperor's intentions towards others than in the court, just like the one who is brought by his side and can hunt with him on a royal horse must be the most favored minister.

And those who can only watch from afar and say something nice to please the emperor are the ones who will make a big fuss about any trivial matter in the future, or go to prison, or return to their hometown.

"At that time, Ye Suifeng was not considered a close minister in the eyes of the ministers. At most, he climbed to a high position by relying on his real talents and hard work. He was an upright and heartless colleague,"

Speaking of this, Xiao Junze looked at Jiang Yanqing with unfriendly eyes, he gouged out his eyes, not to be outdone.

"Why, did you say something wrong? This old boy has a stupid mouth and no smart brain. He can't even turn a corner when things happen, and he points out the emperor's mistakes in front of all the officials. The old man doesn't want to lose face? If it were you, would you like to keep such an idiot with one intestine to the bottom by your side?"

"Yes! He is a loyal minister who rebuked Yan Yan directly, and he is a rare talent."

Jiang Yanqing really didn't know whether this stunned boy was really stupid or pretended to be smart. This kind of nonsense that could make people laugh out loud was really serious when his upper lip touched his lower lip...

Before he could argue with others, a set of bone-setting methods poured out the water in Xiao Junze's brain, skimmed off the broken tofu brain, and stuffed it back for him. Junziyou choked his next long speech with a wave of his hand , came out and said something fair.

"Direct remonstrance can be big or small. It mainly depends on the meaning of the emperor. If he is willing to listen, you are a loyal minister who dares to remonstrate directly. It's not a pity."

As he said that, he patted Xiao Junze's shoulder again in a serious manner, sweeping away the virtues of being careless before, in the depths of his dark eyes, there seemed to be a faint starlight beating.

"I hope you can stick to your original aspirations in the long time to come, and I look forward to the future of you, who can achieve the ideals that you, I, and many people have been pursuing for a lifetime. Don't let me down."
