I want to be a faint king [Rebirth]

After Yuan Yin gave an order, Hou's guards outside the garden rushed in, heading towards the gazebo.

Du Jintang's face was pale, he was paralyzed on the ground, his eyes were loose, like a dead body, he was dragged out of the National Academy by the guards.On the other hand, Chang Hanyu closed his eyes tightly, without any regret on his face, and let the guards take him away.

In Taiwei's mansion, Xu Zheng, dressed in a crescent white brocade robe, was carefully tending the flowers and plants in front of the garden, and scooped up water to water them. Shuo Yue, dressed in a black dress, walked slowly from the corridor, looking at the flowers and plants who were carefully tending the flowers and plants. Xu Zheng clasped his fists in salute and said:

"My lord, there is news from the palace that the affairs of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials have been revealed, and he was dismissed by His Majesty and handed over to Dali Temple."

Xu Zheng's watering hand paused slightly, his eyes closed, and he threw the ladle into the bucket without any hesitation, stood up with a cold snort, looked back at Shuoyue and said, "It's just a drowned pawn, it's okay."

Shuo Yue looked at Xu Zheng's clear appearance, her eyes were deep and cold, like a flower blooming in the wind in the snow and ice.Xu Zheng seemed to be aware of the gaze from the side, and quickly looked sideways at Shuoyue. Shuoyue was slightly taken aback, then nodded and continued:

"If you are a drowned pawn, then there is no point in living."

Xu Zheng nodded and looked at Shuo Yue, and said after a long time, "Go."

Shuo Yue clasped her fists again to salute, then turned around and left Taiwei's Mansion.

Although June has passed, but this day has not cooled down, the sky is blue and clear, and occasionally a cool breeze blows through it, it is still very comfortable, the green calyx is in the middle of the small pavilion built on the ancestral hall, Xiao Rong and Yuan Yin are sitting on the ground facing each other , There was steaming tea on the small table in front of her.

Yuan Yin sat obediently, and occasionally raised his eyes to see Xiao Rong, who was still pouring tea without much expression on his face, with lowered eyebrows and nodding head, his tall nose was even more eye-catching.

"Xiao Qing, you really don't intend to tell me why the Minister of the Ministry of Officials committed suicide in prison?" Yuan Yin sat up straight, raised his head slightly, and raised his chin and said.

Xiao Rong brought the teacup in front of Yuan Yin, and then raised his eyes to look at the young man whose immature face was gradually fading in front of him, he was a little more handsome, his facial features were more delicate, but he was extraordinarily good-looking, he nodded slightly road:

"Didn't His Majesty already have the answer in his heart?"

"But I don't believe it." Yuan Yin said seriously.

Xiao Rong nodded, took a teacup and sniffed it lightly, and then said after taking a sip: "Your Majesty doesn't believe it, but dare not admit it. Since ancient times, this imperial power has been the object of everyone's struggle. Those who are unwilling will covet the imperial power day by day."

"But even my brothers, although the eldest brother is the same age as Xiao Qing, he has been weak and sick since he was a child, the second brother died young, and the third brother is the most capable to take the throne with me, but he was born in a humble background. There is no one to support him, the fifth brother Zhi is not in the temple, he often hangs around with caravans and countries in the Western Regions, but he is at ease, the sixth brother Yuan Hao... is my most beloved younger brother..." Yuan Yin looked at Xiao Rong in front of him, and then Seriously talking about these brothers of his own.

Because in the previous life, the eldest prince Yuan Song was weak and sick, and suffered internal injuries after falling off his horse while hunting. By the time the news reached the capital, Yuan Song had already passed away.The third prince, Yuan Jie, cultivated his confidants secretly in the fiefdom. After being reported, no one in the mansion survived. The fifth prince, Yuan Lu, wandered around the countries of the Western Regions with a caravan, and later married a princess of a country in the Western Regions.

Therefore, Yuan Yin is very sure that among his brothers, even if the third prince intends to compete with him for imperial power, he still has no ability to place his own people in the court.

"Your Majesty seems to have forgotten about the late Emperor. Your Majesty has several uncles whose talents are not inferior to the late Emperor's, and even once threatened the late Emperor's position as crown prince. Fortunately, my grandfather has a solid foundation in the court and is assisted by the Marquis of Wu'an. That's why the former emperor's legacy was stabilized." Xiao Rong put down his teacup and said softly.

Yuan Yin thought carefully about his uncles in his previous life, and it seemed that he rarely heard from them. Even if there were, they received their letters after sending some birthday presents on their birthdays.

"In this way, I really don't know much about these uncles." Although Yuan Yin said so, he felt a little uneasy in his heart.

"Your Majesty still remember the silver taels obtained by the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment to replace the death row prisoner. When he confiscated his property, he only found [-]% of the silver. The Minister of the Ministry of Officials sold dozens of officials and nobles and obtained nearly a million taels of silver. After he hanged himself in prison, he confiscated his property At that time, it was still only [-]%, Your Majesty, have you ever thought about where the other [-]% of the money went?" Xiao Rong looked at Yuan Yin, who was a little uneasy, and carefully analyzed it for him.

"Xiao Qing means that there are envoys behind the scenes of the Ministry of Punishment and the Minister of Officials? Or are they all people with ulterior motives who are planted in my court?" Yuan Yin asked in disbelief.

"Perhaps it has been there since the first emperor came to power." Xiao Rong said very lightly, but Yuan Yin's heart felt cold when he stopped.

In the past, the matter was not exposed, he didn't know that the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment and the Minister of the Ministry of Officials belonged to someone else, and they received the salary of the imperial court, but they were working for others, they really deserved to die.

"Actually, your majesty doesn't have to worry. As long as there are ministers and Marquis Wu'an, your majesty's throne will be safe and secure." Xiao Rong stared at the worry that flashed in Yuan Yin's eyes, his heart tightened inexplicably, and he got up Picking up the teacup, he raised it as a toast, and saluted: "I swear to be loyal to His Majesty to the death, and I have no second thoughts."

Xiao Rong's tone was warm and earnest, listening to his voice, Yuan Yin didn't know why, the anxiety in his heart disappeared, and he was extremely relieved.He met Xiao Rong's eyes, the sincerity and sincerity in his eyes made Yuan Yin's heart twitch even more, a little weird, so he stood up holding the teacup and replied: "Thank you Xiao Qing."

"Are you worshiping heaven and earth?"

Suddenly, Su Wenfang's voice sounded in front of the curved corridor, Yuan Yin and Xiao Rong immediately got up and looked towards Su Wenfang.Su Wenfang, who was wearing a bamboo blue embroidered satin robe, stood upright, and Bai Shu, who was standing beside him, was about to speak, but Su Wenfang never wanted to be the first to speak.

Su Wenfang bowed to Yuan Yin from a distance, and after getting permission, Bai Shu turned around and left. Su Wenfang walked into the pavilion and saluted Yuan Yin again, and said with some embarrassment:

"It's because I'm blind that I don't know that my little cousin is His Majesty, so I feel a little uncomfortable at the moment."

"It's my fault in the future, but Brother Su, Miss Jiang and you seem to be in love with each other. She's going back to Yunzhou to deal with Jiang Zhifu's affairs. Why don't you go together." Yuan Yin asked suspiciously.

Su Wenfang, who just sat down, froze, and couldn't help sighing: "She used to be a servant girl in my mansion. I liked her and could protect her. After that, she is no longer. After she took refuge in her grandparents, her lifelong affairs were handled by her grandparents." The ancestral family is the master, what if her ancestral family does not want her to marry me?"

Yuan Yin looked at Su Wenfang's tightly frowned eyebrows, exchanged glances with Xiao Rong, and couldn't help but said, "I heard that Brother Su wants to participate in this year's autumn exam? If that's the case, I will promise you that if you can win the palace exam If you win the first prize, I will marry you and Miss Jiang, this Yunzhou magistrate is my dowry to Miss Jiang, what do you think?"

Hearing Yuan Yin's promise, both Xiao Rong and Su Wenfang were a little surprised, Su Wenfang looked at Yuan Yin directly and said: "Your Majesty's words are serious?"

"You are not joking." Yuan Yin said seriously.

"Then...then I would like to thank Your Majesty here." Su Wenfang was overjoyed, and then knelt down and kowtowed to Yuan Yin.

Xiao Rong was a little helpless, sighed, sipped his tea and shook his head, "Sex messes your mind, sex messes your mind."

Yuan Yin looked at Xiao Rong's appearance, and couldn't help but said: "Could it be that Xiao Qing, you are not lustful? Or Xiao Qing is not good, so that's why you rejected the beautiful and flowery Mr. Luo?"

Su Wenfang listened to Yuan Yin's words, took a sip of tea but spit it all out, looked at the two people in front of him with embarrassment, Xiao Rong's eyes were a little moved, but Yuan Yin's eyes flickered, The innocence of his face makes people feel that his words are innocent.

"The minister's ambition is in the family and the country, not the personal relationship of the sons and daughters. As for the matter of personal practice, we will talk about it later. Your Majesty should focus on the family and country affairs, not the family affairs of the minister." Xiao Rong did not show any weakness, closed his eyes, and looked serious. He poured the cup of tea that was stained with Su Wenfang's saliva into the pond under the porch, and poured another cup.

Yuan Yin stared straight at the serious Xiao Rong, and suddenly didn't know how to answer his words. He thought about it in his heart, but he didn't know how to answer when he opened his mouth several times. After several attempts, he finally spoke again. Opened the mouth and said:

"What Xiao Qing said is very true. Let's talk about things in the future. It is true that we should pay more attention to government affairs now." Yuan Yin put on a serious expression, and imitated Xiao Rong's serious expression and said: "I plan to meet those who buy As an official, what do you think of Xiao Qing?"

"It doesn't matter, the court is currently preparing for the autumn test. Your Majesty can privately send someone to investigate under the people who bought the official. If someone commits evil, he will be dealt with by the law of the country immediately. If the political performance is mediocre, but he can do things for the people, Your Majesty may as well Make a note, after Deqiu has passed the test, they will be called to Beijing for a unified assessment." Xiao Rong continued to add water to make tea, but it was leisurely.

"In this way, it is also a way." Yuan Yin thought carefully, then looked at Su Wenfang with a smile and said: "Brother Su, I will wait for you in the autumn trial, and I will also reserve the position of the prefect of Yunzhou for you , I hope Brother Su, don't disappoint me."

Seeing Yuan Yin's appearance, Su Wenfang stood up and bowed down again, respectfully and earnestly said: "Thank you for your love, Your Majesty will definitely not disappoint Your Majesty."

"Xiao Qing believes in you, and I believe in you too." Yuan Yin said with a smile.
