Reincarnation of the powerful minister

Su Yan was dressed in court clothes, walked across the Jinshui Bridge with a straight gait, and left the Meridian Gate. When he saw Su Xiaobei who was waiting beside the carriage eating dry food from a distance, his eyes lit up, and he lifted the hem of his robe and ran towards him.

"Quick, give me two sips!" He snatched the kettle full of green tea from Xiaobei's hand, and poured it hard.

Su Xiaobei yelled in horror: "Slow down! Sir, drink slowly, be careful not to choke—"

Su Yan poured half of the pot in one breath, wiped the corners of his mouth with his sleeve, and let out a long sigh of relief: "After talking for two hours, I almost died of thirst, your master."

Today's court meeting was extremely long, and it took three full hours for the court to end. That is to say, your lord alone took up two-thirds of the court meeting's time... He can really say it!Su Xiaobei looked at Su Yan with admiration: "Sir, did you succeed?"

Su Yan said: "I'll talk about the situation at the court meeting later, there are more urgent matters now, let's get in the car first and go to the Shuntian government office immediately."

Su Xiaobei didn't ask any further questions, and immediately got on the shaft of the car and was about to drive. Su Yan got into the car with the water bottle in his arms.

As soon as the carriage started, the door was suddenly pulled open, and a figure jumped up vigorously.The body didn't vibrate much, but the moment Su Yan saw the other person clearly, he sprayed water on the mouth of the pot, splashing himself all over the face.

"You're so excited to see this king?" Yu Wang laughed and took out a handkerchief to wipe his face.

Su Yan saw the familiar handkerchief in his hand: "This is mine—"

King Yu immediately put the handkerchief back into his bosom: "Is there any reason to return the things you gave away?"

"No, I didn't send it... Forget it." Su Yan didn't bother to talk to him, so he changed the subject and asked, "Where did the prince come from?" I remembered that I didn't see King Yu at the court meeting today.However, this person's style has always been to come whenever he likes, and it's not surprising whether he will participate in the court or not.

King Yu said: "Today, the queen mother called me into the palace to accompany me, so I just learned that Wei Que impeached you at the court meeting, so I came to look for you. How do you plan to solve this matter?"

Su Yan knew that King Yu's attitude towards the Wei family was a bit contemptuous, but considering the Queen Mother's face, he would not be hostile.He will not intervene in the power struggle between the crown prince and the second prince.Ever since Fuyin of the Vacuum Sect lurked in the palace, provoked disputes between King Yu and the emperor, and even intended to make him kill the king and rebel, but before Fuyin died, he pulled Han to his back, which completely angered King Yu and was used as a gun by the Vacuum Sect. In his eyes, Shi Wei's family has become something that death is not worth cherishing.

At least in this matter, King Yu is indeed his ally, so Su Yan didn't hide it, and said truthfully: "Someone is behind the back to give advice to the Wei family, and this person must be related to the Seven Killing Camp and the Vacuum Sect, otherwise How did they know about Jing Hongzhui's background?"

This straightforwardness pleased King Yu, and he deliberately lowered his face: "Your dog-skinned plaster guard is indeed a remnant of the Hidden Sword Sect. You helped him hide his identity, and even this king was kept in the dark. Now that the incident happened, who will see it?" I can save you!"

Su Yan was not afraid at all, and rolled his eyes at him: "Ah Zhui betrayed the teacher 800 years ago. Thanks to his investigation and tracking of Fuyin, he discovered the underground secret passage. The intelligence of the Seven Killing Battalion is great." Part of it was also provided by him, if it is paid for by merit, he has more than half."

King Yu lightly said: "Since that's the case, why didn't you say these words openly at the court meeting, but instead used a procrastination formula?"

"Because the timing and momentum are not right. 'The right time, the right place, and the harmony of people, the three cannot be achieved, and even if there is victory, there will be disasters', what Sun Tzu said is true." Su Yan stood at the court meeting for a long time, and now his back was sore and his legs hurt. So he collapsed on the cushion beside the seat, like a snake without bones.

In the eyes of those scholars who value etiquette, he is called insulting.But King Yu is more free and easy than him, and thinks that he will only have this attitude when facing his own people and truly relaxing, so he likes it very much in his heart, and said with a smile: "I would like to hear more about it."

"Wei Que used Jing Hongzhui's background as the point of attack. At this moment, no matter whether I deny it or defend Ah Zhui, I will be at a disadvantage. It is easy to be led by the nose. If I ignore it, the courtiers will have two interpretations—— ——Su Shishi felt guilty and didn't dare to respond; Su Shishi just treated him as a fart and didn't bother to talk about it. Such mixed beliefs are better than me arguing with him to blush and make everyone feel that there is such a thing. Much more."

After thinking about it, King Yu nodded: "It makes sense. Sometimes 'ignoring' is a more powerful counterattack."

"More than that. I deliberately interrupted the opponent's momentum, so that he would not have a chance to cheer up, so I had to control the rhythm in my own hands. Today I am returning to the emperor, and I am the first to impeach the Wei family. As long as the emperor does not Stop talking, you Wei Yan and Wei Que have to listen if you don't want to!"

"...So you scolded the Wei family for two whole hours, forcing a Hou Yibo and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty to have to listen to the end from beginning to end, and even my emperor brother had to starve to the end?" King Yu laughed loudly, "What? Well done!"

Su Yan sighed: "This is a last resort for me. It happened suddenly, I need time to think about countermeasures, and I also need to find someone to verify Ah Zhui's situation, so as not to fall into the trap set by the other party. I asked Jin Yiwei, who carried the evidence box, to Help me to send news to Shen Qi, just hope that he can understand what I mean, first make sure that Ah Zhui's side will not have any accidents. "

King Yu's laughter stopped, and his expression was a bit indescribable: "You asked Shen Qi to save Jing Hongzhui?"

Su Yan returned a look of "what's wrong with this": "Shen Qi is the only person who knows the inside story, and he is on the same boat as me, if not him, who else?"

"You're not afraid that the two of them will fight for each other—" Su Yan's deadly stare, King Yu immediately changed his words, "It's a disagreement! When a disagreement arises, both of them want to take the opportunity to solve each other?"

"What is the solution?" Su Yan slapped the chair vigorously, "Now that the enemy is facing the enemy, personal grievances and grievances have to be put aside first. If you cut off my steering wheel and I burn your sails, this ship will not wait for the enemy to fire. Immediately turn it into your own hands, and then everyone will finish playing together! I don't believe that the two of them can't understand such a simple truth."

While King Yu had nothing to say, he felt uncomfortable in his heart: Shen Qi refused his solicitation without hesitation at the beginning, but now if she joins forces with Jing Hongzhui, it means that the other party is not only willing to fight alone, but is not willing to fight alone. Willing to choose him as an ally.Whether it was because he looked down upon him, or because he didn't want to get involved with the royal family out of some scruples, only Shen Qi knew it in her heart.

With a subtle displeasure, King Yu asked, "Then where are you going?"

Su Yan said: "Shuntian government office. Before, I asked Ah Zhui to protect the bitter owner who filed a complaint, and he himself has a lawsuit to submit. If all goes well, he should still be in the lobby of the government office at this moment. If he is not here... he may be arrested by seven. The Killing Battalion and the Vacuum Cult are on their way."

The situation was urgent, Su Xiaobei drove the carriage quickly, and finally arrived at the government office after half an hour.

Su Yan asked King Yu to wait in the carriage, and he easily entered the door wearing his official uniform.Today is Fucheng sitting in hall.The Fucheng's surname is Mao, and he is about forty years old, which is comparable to his rank as the Shaoqing of Dali Temple.The two saluted as equals, and Su Yan explained the purpose of coming.

"It is true that many people came to submit petitions today, and they are still beating drums outside the yamen to appeal for grievances. They all sued..." Mao Fucheng sighed in great embarrassment. Mr. Fuyin received the pleadings, and his head hurts a lot, no, let me temporarily take over the affairs of the hall, and he will make arrangements in the rear, so that he can check the tone of the Wei family first."

As soon as Su Yan heard it, he knew the way - the deputy, Emotion, was calmly putting eye drops on the principal.Otherwise, why would you tell him?The implication is: our leadership is not good, as the mayor of the capital city, timid and incompetent, as soon as we receive a difficult case against the relatives of the state, I will be pulled out to take the blame.He was still afraid of offending the Wei family, so he first went to the defendant to inform him.

Sure enough, Mao Fucheng immediately asked: "Master Su has just come to court, dare to ask where the wind is blowing and what is the weather like?"

This is to ask him what the courtiers think about this, and what does the emperor mean.Su Yan thought that this gentleman really knows how to "see flowers in the fog" when he spoke, and he laughed: "The wind direction changes a lot, and the sky... There is neither wind nor rain."

Mao Fucheng was taken aback for a moment, and thought to himself: This Su Shaoqing looks at a boy who is only seventeen or eighteen, how can he speak older than me?

Su Yan leaned forward slightly, and said in a very sincere tone: "Master Mao, we are both deputies. If there are some heart-to-heart words, it's okay for us to talk to each other-some difficult official duties, if the chief officer is unwilling to take responsibility, then we Adjutants not only have to work, but also have to be ready to take the blame at any time, this kind of thing is the same in every government."

Mao Fucheng nodded with concern: "Master Su, do you have any good tricks, teach them?"

Su Yan put down the teacup, and said: "No good trick can be compared to two words - process. As long as any official business is done according to the rules and procedures, you can't make mistakes. Even if you make a mistake in the end, it's not our fault. Shuntian Mansion After receiving the petition, follow the procedure according to the law, then go step by step. If you encounter resistance, if you can’t move anymore, you will report... er, submit the memorial to the top, and ask the top to point out the direction, or you can just go Has the responsibility been wiped out? It’s better than trying to please either the plaintiff or the defendant, only to end up with both sides.”

Mao Fucheng suddenly realized: "It makes sense! Mr. Su is really young and mature, and he is very stable."

"Everywhere, it's not all made by grinding." Su Yan made a movement of grinding ink, and the two laughed at the same time.

Seeing that the atmosphere was good, Su Yan asked about the general situation of the plaintiffs today, but found no plaintiffs or related cases that matched Jing Hongzhui's description, so he got up and left.

When Mao Fucheng sent him away, he sighed silently: such a young man who is not imposing, has a brain and has a sense of proportion, no wonder he got the blue eyes of the Holy One... Cough, the main thing is that he will be reincarnated and have a good appearance!Otherwise, I was also the seventh in the top two in the palace examination. Why didn't the Holy One pay attention to me?

As soon as Su Yan came out of the gate of the mansion, his face darkened.After getting into the carriage, he said to King Yu: "Jing Hong chased something wrong!"

"How to say?"

"He promised me to go to the Shuntian government office to file a complaint. He will do what he promised me no matter what, unless..." Su Yan frowned worriedly. Jin Yiwei came and went. I was worried that Shen Qi didn't connect with each other, and something went wrong. "

King Yu didn't want to care about Jing Hong chasing Shen Qi at all, but he couldn't see Su Yan's sad face, so he sighed secretly, and said: "Change your clothes first, and I'll take you around to see if you can find any clues. "

The clue is in the alley not far from the government office.

Su Yan breathed in the blood stains that hadn't been cleaned up on the ground. King Yu went around in a circle, jumped up on the roof to check carefully, and returned to Su Yan and said, "There are two masters who fought here. It was a sword weapon, and the huge crack left on the roof was caused by sword energy. Also around the alley, you can see that there are many fresh bloodstains and scratches on the wall. few."

Su Yan felt ominous, turned around and walked back.

King Yu caught up and asked, "Where are you going?"

"North Town Fusi."

The two of them had just walked out of the alley when they ran into a team of Jin Yiwei who had failed to chase down the leader of the seven-kill camp and had to go back home.Su Yan looked up at the pale-faced leader of the Jinyiwei on the horse's back, and then shifted his gaze from the Xiuchun knife on the left side of his waist to the long sword on the right side that was different in shape from the Central Plains weapons, and said in surprise : "That's Ah Zhui's sword!"

Seeing that he was with King Yu, Shen Qi's complexion became ugly. Hearing this again, she couldn't help but sneer slightly: "Nonsense, this is my sword."

Su Yan couldn't laugh or cry: "Don't be kidding Qilang, this is really Ah Zhui's sword, and the name of the sword is 'Oath'."

With a green face, Shen Qi said coldly: "This is my sword, the name of the sword is 'Three Hundred Gold'!"

Su Yan: "..."

King Yu raised his eyebrows, and put his mouth close to Su Yan's ear: "Two people grab a sword? You can give it to whoever you say, why are you guilty!"

Su Yan murmured: "I'm not guilty, I'm flustered. Ah Zhui is a swordsman, the kind where the sword is with the person."

In his mind, he pasted several layers of thick skin on his cheeks, finally calmed down, and asked Shen Qi: "Where is Ah Zhuiren?"

Shen Qi's eyes flickered, and she replied: "There are too many people here, it's inconvenient to talk, so go home first."

He got off his horse and walked towards Su Yan's carriage.

King Yu stretched out his hand to stop him: "The horse is riding well, what kind of carriage is running over to squeeze? The carriage is small and only fits two people. Where did you come from and where did you go back?"

Shen Qi looked at Su Yan, put her hands on the wound on her waist and abdomen, and did not speak.

Su Yan thought that his wound was hurting again, so he hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and said to King Yu, "He is still injured, so he is not suitable for riding a horse. If the prince is too crowded, why don't you two take a car and I ride a horse?"

"No need!" King Yu and Shen Qi objected together.

The two stared at each other for a few seconds like fighting cocks, and finally pulled Su Yan's arms from left to right at the same time, and dragged him into the car.

In the carriage, the three of them could not reach an agreement on the seat arrangement, so they squeezed each other all the way in all kinds of secret tricks.

Back at the gate of Su Mansion, the carriage hadn't stopped yet, Su Yan couldn't even wait for the steps, so he jumped out of the car impatiently, and took a few breaths of fresh air.

He was shrouded in ominous clouds in his heart, and he was not in the mood to compare himself with the two snatching dogs. He walked quickly to the living room, poured himself a cup of cold tea, drank it all in one gulp, and threw the cup on the table: "What the hell is that?" Situation, tell me!"
