"What's King Zhongyong's opinion?" Si Kou squinted his eyes, even though he knew that it was not appropriate to break faces with Yu Wenzhi at this time, but the temptation to take back the Western Territory Soldiers Talisman was too great, and this opportunity was too rare.

He grinned sinisterly: "Your Majesty, I can learn from your loyalty! I have long wanted to hand in the military talisman, but I have never dared to be ashamed of what Your Majesty entrusted me with. Now what Qiao Yushi said just relieved my fear."

He took out something from his pocket, and the dark golden soldier talisman fell heavily into his hand. Yu Wenzhi raised it above his head and said: "Please take back the soldier talisman, Your Majesty!"

Yu Wenxi lowered his head and sneered silently, today's humiliation to the king is for the time being!Soldiers!How can this king's soldiers be controlled by this piece of gold?You want to remove obstacles for me so much, how can I let you down!

The surprise came too fast, Si Kou didn't think it would be so easy to get the soldier talisman back. He took the soldier talisman presented by Eunuch Li, suppressed his doubts and laughed loudly, "Everyone knows the loyalty of the loyal and brave king!"

No one noticed that Qiao Yihuai, who was originally standing in the center of the hall, glanced behind Yu Wenzhi when he held up the military amulet, and then quietly retreated to his position.

Si Kou turned his gaze to Kong Ze and saw that he looked excitedly at Qiao Yihuai from time to time, his brows could not help but the excitement gradually faded: "Teacher Kong, what do you want to say?"

Kong Ze stared blankly at the seat with a cold gaze, knowing that Si Kou was suspicious because he was too excited.

He slowly stepped out of the line and gave Si Kou a deep bow: "The old minister deeply appreciates the loyalty of the King Zhongyong, the courage of Mr. Qiao, and the virtuousness of His Majesty!"

The implication is that without His Majesty's meritocracy, there would be no such thing as Mr. Qiao's brave act of fighting against the Zhongyong King, let alone the loyal act of the Zhongyong King returning the soldier talisman.

"Haha..." Si Kou laughed out loud at what he said.

Old fox!

Kneeling on the ground, the military general secretly rolled his eyes to the sky. Now the third prince, Si Jichong, is going to the western region. Although King Zhongyong is in power, he is determined to rebel, so that the power of the generals has been greatly reduced. Everyone, I can't help but rejoice that Xitang sent troops at this time, or else the person sitting on the seat at this time would take the opportunity to clean up the generals.

But maybe this is a sign?Some military generals who had a close relationship with Yu Wenster couldn't help but feel threatened.

Compared with the generals who are in danger, civil servants are happy and secretly cover their faces with their sleeves. They didn't expect that the teacher like the breeze and the moon would not give up too much.

Si Kou couldn't see the various thoughts of the underground courtiers, but what Kong Ze said really spoke to his heart.He took a deep look at Qiao Yihuai, thinking that he would help him take back Yuwenzhi's soldier talisman today and talk about it later.

Si Kou's face turned pale and he said with a smile: "It's all up to all the lovers!"

"Long live Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty!"

"Haha... All the gentlemen are flat!"

Si Kou laughed and waved his hands, his heavy footsteps slumped on the main hall and roared, the main door of the main hall was opened from the outside, and four people entered with knives.

They are wrapped in armor, leaving a pair of cold eyes outside, the air around them is stagnant, the emperor's strongest guard, the Dragon Guard!

After the four of them entered the main hall and knelt down to Si Kou, they dragged down several officials who fainted on the ground without saying a word. Not surprisingly, the best ending for these people would be to be exiled for thousands of miles.

Si Kou saw everyone's expressions in his eyes, glanced at the shocked Yu Wenzhi and secretly sneered, he removed the original bodyguards and replaced them with the Dragon Guards because of Yu Wenster, and his Dragon Guards were no worse than the elite in Yu Wenster's hands .

"Let's get down to business, can all the lovers have a countermeasure for the disappearance of the prince?" After shocking Yu Wenzhi and recovering the military amulet, Si Kou's tone was no longer cold.

Kong Ze saw that Yu Wenzhi was not as displeased as before: "Your Majesty, the western region has always been an important place, and the Xitang thief country suddenly sent out a large-scale army. The prince's personal conquest is well known to the world. The old minister thinks that someone must sneak into the country to ambush the prince. Should your majesty send support?"

Si Kou narrowed his eyes: "What does Master Kong mean?"

"The old minister also knows that the garrisons along the road are of great importance and cannot be easily transferred. King Zhongyong also said that the people in the western region are tough. Your Majesty, why don't you let Tong Fang and others recruit people to serve as soldiers to act cheaply."

Qin Yifan's slightly closed eyes suddenly opened, and before he could object, Fang Wenshan, Minister of the Ministry of War, couldn't sit still first, and he strode forward to object: "Your Majesty, absolutely not, Beique has always been recruited by the imperial court." After promulgating the unified booklet, Tong Fang and others recruited soldiers for private use, are they the prince's private soldiers or the imperial court's soldiers? So what if someone imitates them in the future? Your Majesty, once this example is opened, there will be endless troubles."

Kong Ze turned his old eyes upside down and folded his hands in his sleeves and suddenly fell silent. Fang Wenshan was startled, not understanding what the old lady meant.

A person came out from behind Kong Ze and stood next to him with a sneer, "Master Fang, did he forget that His Highness did not bring a single soldier with him during his trip to the west, or does Master Fang think that His Highness the Crown Prince's safety is not important?"

Qin Yifan suddenly realized that almost everyone in the court subconsciously ignored the fact that the crown prince did not bring a single soldier, because this was allowed by the emperor, which meant that the people in the court were not human beings, how could they not understand.

Kong Ze took advantage of the disappearance of the prince to point out in front of the court, and also proposed to recruit private soldiers on the grounds that all the soldiers of the imperial court held important positions. Sending troops to support is the only choice, otherwise the prince is missing and his life and death are unknown. As the emperor and his biological father, if he doesn't do anything, is it telling the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty that he is not kind to the king and the father is not kind, and who will dare to work for him in the future.

Kong Ze is an old man and an old fox!

Qin Yifan secretly hated, but he still supported Si Jiyun on the surface, he could not blatantly oppose his proposal.

"How about Wen Xiangyi?" Si Kou clenched the soldier talisman in his hand, the joy he had just obtained was gone.

Qin Yifan bowed to the ground: "Your Majesty, Mr. Kong Taifu is worried about the prince's heart and we are the same. However, Mr. Fang's worries also have to be taken care of. I have a way to get the best of both worlds."

"Oh? Wen Xiang, please tell me!"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Mo Wang, the owner of the Palace of Clear Water, are inseparable, and the western region is occupied by the Palace of Clear Water. Why don't we ask the Palace of Clear Water for help?"

Si Kou frowned and didn't know what he was planning: "Master Wen has forgotten that since ancient times, the martial arts and the court have not interfered with each other. This time, Mo Wang went to the western region with the prince. The prince has disappeared and his whereabouts are unknown. It can be seen that Mo Wang disagrees with the power of the Bishui Palace." Help, even if I send people again, it will not help."

"Your Majesty, everyone in the imperial court asks him to ignore the Bishui Palace, so what about the martial arts people asking for help?" Qin Yifan lowered his head and his eyes were full of anger. This move was originally intended as a surprise move, but in order to prevent Si Jiyun from gaining military power, he had to expose it in advance.

"Wulin people?" Kong Ze said with a sly look in his old eyes: "Unexpectedly, Wen Xiang still has contacts with Wulin people. He is really a role model for my generation."

"Mr. Kong's nonsense." Qin Yifan put on a fake smile: "This person wants to serve the imperial court to find someone to find the truth. The truth knows that the matter is important and has been investigating, so he did not report it to His Majesty."

Si Kou interrupted their argument: "Okay, let's talk about who this person is?"

"Patriarch Qi Yang City!"

"Qi Family? Qiyang City?" Si Kou frowned for a while and thought of something before asking in disbelief: "Wen Xiang said it was the Qi Family of Qi Xiaotian, the supreme martial artist 400 years ago?"

"Exactly!" Qin Yifan said: "Qi Yangcheng is the current Patriarch of the Qi Family, and he came to ask for help in person. Don't be fooled, even the so-called lord of Wulin, the master of the Palace of Bishui, will give Qi Xiaotian a face."

"This plan is very good!"

Si Kou raised his eyebrows. The Qi family is Qi Xiaotian's family. He should be able to see the strength of the martial arts forces and the difference between him and his Dragon Guards. No matter how Qin Yifan got in touch with Qi Yangcheng, Qi Yangcheng took the initiative to invite Bishui Palace. Bishui Palace completely intervenes in the imperial court, only to wait...

His eyes seemed to glance over Yu Wenzhi unintentionally, his hand that clenched the soldier talisman relaxed, and he fumbled for the soldier talisman in his hand, and the corners of his lips raised an arc of satisfaction.

The person next to Kong Ze was about to refute, but Kong Ze slightly pulled out his hands that were in his sleeves to block his steps. He looked at Kong Ze suspiciously, only to see that he shook his head and could only press back to stand behind him with his head bowed. Pretending to be deaf and dumb.

The movements of the two were so small that Si Kou didn't see it even though he was sitting on the highest seat. He turned to Kong Ze and said in a deep voice, "What does Master Kong think of this plan?"

"Your Majesty is wise, and the old minister also thinks this plan is very clever."

"Okay!" Si Kou smiled and said, "According to Qin Aiqing's plan, call Qi Yangcheng into the palace to face the saint! Qiao Aiqing is waiting in the imperial study! Retire!"

Kong Ze glanced at Qiao Yihuai worriedly, but seeing that he was so dumbfounded, he didn't know whether he was confident or what, so he could only sigh and leave with the support of his disciples.

He is old, even though he can sit in court, the atmosphere in the court today is tense and he can't help cheering up, and it is quite difficult to finish a court meeting.

"Teacher, why didn't you let the students talk about it just now?" the person who refuted Fang Wenshan just now looked around and saw that no one was paying attention.

"A few days ago, why did your Majesty summon Mo Huang to face the saint?" Kong Ze couldn't help being depressed when he saw Ren Jiu's ignorant look, and blamed him for always hating people who speculate and don't think about business. That's right, it's just that I don't understand the situation in the court.

"Your Majesty has been interested in martial arts for a long time, and Wen Xiang put forward this opinion after seeing His Majesty's intention. Your opposition at this time will not do any good except to anger His Majesty."

"Then aren't we wasting this good opportunity?"

"That's not entirely true. Your Majesty will not dare to embarrass His Highness again and again in order not to fall behind."

"Your Highness' temperament and ability are all excellent, whoever does not say that the prince is virtuous, I really don't understand why His Majesty is embarrassing Your Highness, hey..."

The students surrounding Kong Ze sighed when they thought of Si Jiyun's situation, and someone asked, "Teacher, do you think the crown prince is really in danger?"

Kong Ze lowered his eyebrows and folded his hands: "Who knows? I just need to maintain the current situation for Your Highness, and just wait for the news quietly."

"What the teacher said is true, the teacher walks slowly, and the students wait to leave."

After leaving Miyagi, the students who surrounded Kong Ze dispersed one after another. Kong Ze raised his eyebrows and looked at the corner of Miyagi in the distance with cloudy eyes and sighed softly. The prince is still just a prince.

Imperial study room

Qiao Yihuai stood in the imperial study with a dull face, facing his boss Kou's extremely gloomy face across the imperial table.

"Qiao Yihuai, are you convicted?"

"My minister is guilty." Qiao Yihuai knelt down, his expression unchanged, and his face was so dull that it was almost sluggish.

Seeing such a face, Si Kou calmed down a bit: "Where is the crime?"

"The humble minister shouldn't go against King Zhongyong without His Majesty's consent."

"It's not because of Kong Ze?" Si Kou kept his eyes on his face and never missed any of his expressions.

When Kong Ze confronted Yu Wenzhi, Qiao Yihuai immediately fought back, and Si Kou knew him better.Kong Ze has a half teacher relationship with him, and with his honest nature, it is really possible to fight back because of Kong Ze. He doesn't want the people he cultivated to fall to Kong Ze in the end.
