Fan An slept lightly that night, and even had several nightmares. He woke up in a cold sweat. He was worried. When he washed his face in the bronze mirror, he saw his own face in the bronze mirror, haggard and sallow, and his face was black.

Fan An had a premonition that there might be a bloodbath in the near future. Could it be that God opened his eyes and finally could not tolerate such a deranged sinner like him living in the world, so he was going to clean him up?There were two times in his life when Yintang went black, the first time his father died, and the second time the village was slaughtered by the rebel army.

Fan An touched his chest, called Yuanzhu over, and said, do you still remember the oath you made last night?Yuanzhu stood with her head down, saying that the slaves dare not forget.Fan An smiled, adjusted his official uniform and stepped out to prepare to go to court.

He walked slowly along the pool in the atrium to the gate, and returned to the room of his two sons as if thinking of something. At this time, the two young masters were still asleep. Looked, touched and touched, and then reluctantly left.

In the distance, Chenxi refracted a brilliant golden light on the roof of the Liudian Hall, the glorious glory poured from the sky, and the flying phoenix came to the east.Fan An stood in front of Hongwu Gate, looking at the golden avenue leading to the emperor's throne. How many people in this world have spent their whole lives from teenage to old age just to have a place here.High position and power, luxury and money, like wine and poppies, it is indescribable.

The officialdom is like a flood, and the big waves wash away the sand. It is not easy to get out of the mud without being stained.How lucky he, Fan An, was able to walk here in his lifetime, and met a green peony flower at the height of this temple.

To be a treacherous official, you must have a flawless, shrewd mind, and to be an honest official, you must have the courage to be a man who will never die. In life, you have to have the courage to be whatever kind of person you want to be... Hey...Fan An Thinking: It's hard to be a good official. If you can escape today, you will resign and go home to farm, and you will never take a step into the capital again.

When he was thinking like this, the pilgrimage bell rang in the distance, and all the officials returned to line up and headed for Liudian.

After crossing the Jinshui Bridge, Fan Er saw Li Jianbi again. The man was wearing a magic crown and red clothes, and his face was a little pale. It could be seen that he didn't sleep well last night.Fan An was in the left row, walking at his feet, but he was looking straight at Li Jianbi who was in the front left.Li Jianbi noticed his gaze, and turned his face to look at him. The two looked at each other, eye to eye, full of affection, causing all the ministers next to him to look up.It wasn't until Liang Yenian, who was walking in front, turned his head and gave Fan An a hard look that everyone looked away one after another.

Li Jianbi's eyes were clear, looking at Fan An, he seemed to have a thousand words to say, but also seemed to have nothing to say.

Fan An knew that someone was going to sue him today. He was worried all night last night, but now standing here, he is not afraid of boiling water, and unexpectedly calmed down.

All the officials were in the line, and several ministers took turns to play. The Jianghuai River in Qin'an was flooded. The local officials asked for money to help the disaster.Someone from the Ministry of War filed a complaint, saying that a vassal king outside the pass recruited troops privately, but did not notify the court. Liu Xi was displeased when he heard this.The official impeached Shang Zhongxi, the great eunuch, saying that the eunuchs occupied more fertile land outside Beijing, interfered with local taxes, and the common people scolded the heaven and earth, making the treacherous eunuchs rule.

Today's fortune is not good, nothing good happened, natural disasters and man-made disasters made Liu Xilong's face unhappy.

Fan An stood obediently in front of the throne, waiting for others to sue him without saying a word.In the end, Zhang Shizhen, the second assistant to the cabinet, lived up to expectations and stood up when he was fast retreating. He took two steps forward, lifted his robe and knelt down, and said in a clear voice: "I have something to say."

Fan An breathed a sigh of relief: It's over, it's almost suffocating!Liu Xi glanced at him and asked, "What's the matter?"

Zhang Shizhen said: "Fan Pingqiu, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, committed adultery with a man in Lutai on the Empress Dowager's birthday yesterday. It's a big insult to public morals, and it's not official!" Liu Xi didn't expect this group of people to be so eager to pull out this matter. He originally intended to deal with this matter privately, but now that Zhang Shizhen threw it on the table, he was a little caught off guard, and he was still a little biased towards Fan An, and said: "We have already known about this matter, and we will deal with it according to the law." .”

As soon as he finished speaking, the cabinet scholar on the side knelt down again: "I have remembered that Your Majesty said: A commoner who is virtuous and full of benefits is a prince without a position; an official who is greedy for money and lust is a beggar with a noble. Fan Pingqiu is a man , I am not worthy of the name of today's minister! I feel ashamed to be with him in the same dynasty." The humane said, "If your majesty indulges this person, I have no choice but to sue the old man and return home."

Fan An thought: Don’t dare, let me retire and return to my hometown.He was thinking like this, but before he had time to express his intentions, Liang Yenian next to him suddenly said loudly: "I think Mr. Zhang is very right! How can you tolerate a shameless person under the feet of the emperor? Your Majesty is so clear and innocent, when the temple is clean and clean. .”

As he spoke, he knelt down with a plop and heard the sound of his knees hitting the marble, which showed his sincerity.Behind him, all the cabinet ministers moved with the wind and immediately knelt down.

Fan An took a look at Liang Yenian, who was holding his hand eagerly yesterday, saying, "My cabinet officials will definitely support you", he didn't want to be rejected by him just yesterday, but today he preemptively overturned him.This person knew Li Jianbi's status in Liu Xi's eyes, and he didn't dare to force him to dismiss him easily, so he took the knife on himself first, killing chickens and respecting monkeys, and it would not hurt the prestige of Li Jianbi and his group.

Fan An couldn't bear to embarrass His Majesty, he cleared his throat, walked up two steps calmly, lifted his robe and knelt down and said, "What Master Liang said is very true, I know that I am guilty, and I know that I am not worthy of the name of this minister. Your Majesty allows me to resign and retire..."

"Your Majesty." Fan An was interrupted by a clear voice, and Li Jianbi, who was standing on the left side of the throne, suddenly walked up a few steps and was definitely standing beside Fan An, "Your Majesty, Fan Pingqiu has been the Secretary of the Ministry of Criminal Justice for less than a year, and the major case he has concluded is one Seventeen volumes, thousands of small cases. According to the six edicts, inspect the localities, severely damage the system of governors, and discuss official achievements. There are 19 former Ministers of the Ministry of Punishment, who can compare?"

Li Jianbi said: "The emperor has a saying: To be an official is to be a virtuous person, and only to be able to do things. Mr. Fan has the ambition to serve the country and has outstanding talents. You must not cover up your great talents because of trivial things."

A group of cabinet ministers who were kneeling raised their heads to look at Li Jianbi: this Li Jianbi, as Fan Pingqiu's 'adulterate', cannot protect himself at the moment, he should have found a crack in the ground to get in this situation long ago!To be so thick-skinned as to dare to intercede for Fan Pingqiu!Could it be that this person has forgotten how embarrassing he was when he caught the rape in the room and his clothes were disheveled!

"The sage said that for an official, one who has virtue and talent is a virtuous person, one who has virtue but no talent is a mediocre person, and one who has no virtue and talent is a disaster!" Liang Yenian straightened up and said, "Master Li, you are biased, but you are a big publicity official." Bane!"

"The love between fish and water is human nature. Master Fan indulges himself for a while, and punishment is enough. How can he be 'worse'?" Li Jianbi said, "The sage also has a saying: I would rather be a poor and crazy husband than a cheeky gentleman. Master Fan can't help it .Human feelings cannot be dismissed, and the way is to forgive. Master Liang is so relentless, and he has the intention of forgiveness like a sage, isn't he wicked?"

Li Jianbi was already articulate when he was still a speech officer, and he could win three points without reason, let alone now?Liang Yenian was choked up in his throat by his words, and stared at Li Jianbi angrily. If the Holy Majesty wasn't sitting there, he might have already fucked him.

Fan An looked up at the two people coming and going, how lucky he was to have attracted two of the most prestigious figures in Daxuan to fight for his life.His eyes fell on Li Jianbi, and he was so moved that he was about to cry.

"Your Majesty, I would like to thank Master Li for your kindness." Fan An raised his head and said to the sage, "This humble minister has indeed done something indecent, and he has owed the emperor's kindness. Your Majesty, let me dismiss this humble minister as an official."

Li Jianbi swayed slightly when he heard the words, and Yu Shi Zhongcheng next to him gave him a gentle support.All the censor courtiers around couldn't help turning their heads, dozens of pairs of eyes were staring at Fan An, and they almost put him in the hall!

Li Jianbi, the head of Lantai, has always been used to being calm, noble and glamorous. He has never fought for others like this.This ardent maintenance made others envious, how could such a wolf-hearted thing not intend to accept Li Jianbi's affection? !

Everyone was at a stalemate for a while, and after counting, they couldn't help but look at the emperor on the throne.

Liu Xi was completely annoyed by these people!He can't wait to get all the people out to play [-] boards. He has watched these open and secret fights for more than [-] years, and he was about to vomit.He was already in a bad mood today, and these people didn't let him feel better, they forced him to watch the play, and even pushed the matter on themselves.

He tightened his hands, glanced at Li Jianbi, and then at Fan An.Regardless of Liang Yenian's situation, Li Jianbi's adultery with Fan An was witnessed by him with his own eyes. This minister he trusted so much always opened his eyes. Is it true that a gentleman who is usually as honest as a bamboo is a fake?Can't see clearly because of his old eyesight?

Liu Xi closed his eyes, sighed after a long time, and said, "Fan Pingqiu, Minister of the Ministry of Punishments, has misbehaved and hurt officials, so he pulled out of the Meridian Gate...with twenty sticks as a punishment."

Liu Xidao: "Don't mention this matter again in the future, retreat from the court!"

Everyone was silent for three counts, and Liu Xi, who was on the imperial court, turned over his dragon robe and went down the golden steps on the side to the back of the hall.The chief eunuch retreated with a shout, and immediately a royal guard came in from outside the palace, waving Fan An with one hand and dragging him outside.

Fan An took a deep breath as if reacting, and he yelled "Your Majesty!"Before he had time to say anything, someone covered his mouth and dragged him out of the Longsill Road of the Duojin Gilded Hall.

Li Jianbi watched him being dragged away with a calm face, and Yu Shi Zhongcheng next to him ran up, took the opportunity to kick Fan An's ass, and cursed at Li Jianbi: "This is a thing that doesn't know how to praise! You can't beat him to death!"

Li Jianbi glanced at him, and said: "Didn't some of you before bring back some expensive innovative medicines from the outer domain? Send some to the Shangshufu."
