Old minister, please the lord of the country, and punish him severely!"

When the old lady Tong Hao said this, the whole court was silent, the atmosphere was treacherous, and all the officials and military attaches felt that something was wrong with the wind.

Master Tong Hao so resolutely demanded the punishment of a suspect who had not yet been defined as a rebel, the purpose was not to punish at all, but to take this opportunity to pat the lord of the country.

Everyone knows that the lord of the country can be the lord of the country, but the original betrayer is the brother of the current lord of the country, and in the end, because the lord of the country and the civil and military officials of this faction rebelled against the rule of his own eldest brother, so he will become the current lord of the country.

The most unbearable thing for the lord of the country is his eldest brother's gang of rebels, as long as they see it, they will be punished and killed, and the Criminal Division has not known how many they have killed over the years.

This time, Master Tong Hao asked for severe punishment, which naturally had a great element of currying favor with the lord of the country, and the other was to establish his own majesty and status, so that he would be more important.

His words can become the golden rule, and that is the best outcome.

But this is a multi-party game, and naturally it is impossible for him to decide life and death so easily.

Shang Rong, who is the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, will not sit idly by, he knows the process of this matter, especially when Qing Yulu wrote him a letter and explained everything.

Shang Rong immediately walked out of the second row of civil officials and knelt on the hall: "Lord Qi, this person's name is Bai Qi, he is the new lord of the Bai Kingdom, how can he be a rebel? Besides, he has never been to the Central Empire, and his surname is Bai, not Yao, and he is not a member of the royal family." ”

"Hahaha, why did Shang Rong Shangshu say this?" Master Tong Hao didn't wait for Shang Rong to finish speaking, he laughed, looked at Shang Rong with a playful face, and then continued to say towards the screen: "Lord, the name can be changed, and the rebel may not necessarily be a person surnamed Yao, can't it be a collateral line?"

"And you Shang Rong Shangshu said that the rebel must be surnamed Yao, but the surname Yao is the surname of the royal family, and your words are heart-wrenching!!" Master Tong Hao pointed with his left hand, which made Shang Rong's face change dramatically, and hurriedly shouted towards the screen: "The minister is wronged, the minister is just an unintentional word, and I ask the lord to forgive me." ”

"Hmph, since you know the unintentional words, then what you just said can't be counted!" Tong Hao smiled scornfully, stretched his beard, and stood aside.

Shang Rong was still kneeling, but he looked at Qing Zhen on the side from time to time, thinking to himself why didn't you come out to say a word.

However, at this moment, Qing Zhen felt the strange atmosphere in the court, in the past, the words of Master Tong Hao would be refuted by Young Master Pang Xu, and from time to time Ji Wan's commanders would also be involved.

However, at this moment, they did not make a sound, but they all watched coldly from the sidelines.

This kind of wind direction is very wrong, although he doesn't know what's going on, but he can't speak out at any time, and he can't be a military general, and this time it's even more impossible.

Daughter, my father can only be sorry for you, it is not good to be an official in the DPRK, especially a military attaché.

He sighed, did not speak, but looked around, and the style of a military general would not make people suspicious.

"Hmph, what Master Tong said is really ridiculous!!"

Bang!

Suddenly, Yao Bing, the black-robed prince who had been sitting on a chair in the hall, suddenly got up, and the jade qilin in his hand smashed directly towards Tong Hao's master, Tong Hao hurriedly dodged, and the jade qilin directly shattered into slag.

"Brother Huang, Tong Hao is in the court, treacherous, disaster to the country and the people, his subordinates are even more fish and flesh people, rampant and domineering, the courtiers have collected countless evidence of this person's crimes for so many years. ”

"Today, in front of the courtiers, he wronged a suspect who was not even a rebel, which is really hateful. ”

"If the imperial brother does not severely punish this person, I am afraid that the foundation of my empire will be shaken, and the imperial brother will be able to check it out!" Yao Bing clenched his fists and looked at the figure behind the screen.

And the lord of the country did not speak from beginning to end, and he was always listening to the quarrel of the officials.

"Oh, the prince has wronged the old minister, woo woo woo..."Tong Hao's eyes rolled, he knelt on the ground and cried, this cry is even more sad when people are old, and the officials can't help but feel uncomfortable.

Yao Bing watched coldly, he quietly watched Tong Hao acting, to see how long he could act.

"Enough!"

At this moment, a young but majestic man shouted from behind the screen, his tone was not sad or joyful, but it was still heartbreaking.

After all, the lord of the Central Empire is a strong man in the middle of the Qiong Dynasty, and no one dares to be presumptuous.

Suddenly, Tong Hao didn't dare to cry, but looked behind the screen with tears in his eyes.

"Tong Hao's crime, the crime is that you don't know people, and if you are old and stupid, you will be punished for three years of grinding, five years of salary, exempted from the part-time position of Saint Fulu, and you will not be allowed to leave the house for a month!"

"Old minister... Thank you, Lord Longen!" Tong Hao had a sad look on his face, but he was happy in his heart, and he glanced at Prince Yao Bing proudly.

And Yao Bing also knew that Tong Hao had been in the court for many years, and there were many henchmen, so there was no way to cut them together, and it was impossible for the lord of the country to move him easily, so he could only boil the frog in warm water.

"Something really doesn't look right. Qing Zhen on the side couldn't help but shake his head and sighed, no wonder Young Master Pang Xu and Ji Wan were silent, it turned out that today it was the prince who reprimanded Tong Hao, and Bai Qi's incident was just a fuse.

This kind of trivial matter, there is no need to discuss it in the DPRK and China, their purpose is Tong Hao, this is the game between their big people, small people such as Bai Qi, Shang Rong Shangshu, is a victim of the game.

"The man surnamed Bai who is suspected of being a rebel will be handed over to the Shen Criminal Division to deal with!" The lord of the country spoke up again at this moment, his tone revealing unquestionable determination.

"Command!" Ji Wan gestured with a fist on his expressionless face, and then continued to stand in place, looking like he didn't care about himself.

Shang Rong felt a chill in his heart, the lord of the country decided Bai Qi's life and death with one sentence, and no one had the qualifications to intervene.

Even the identity of the five-grade alchemist is needless to say.

Although the Central Empire lacks an alchemist, there is no shortage of a fifth-grade alchemist who is suspected of being a rebel, but it is a pity that it would be good if it was a sixth-grade alchemist.

Shang Rong smiled bitterly, turned around and retreated to his place, and the Ministry of Works Shangshu on the side laughed, ridiculing him for being too nosy.

However, Shang Rong couldn't help it, Qing Yulu asked in every possible way, he could only give this face.

But the result was clearly not what he saw.

The game of the big guys, the little guys are just chess pieces, the lord of the country decides life and death in one sentence, what else is there to say?

When the court meeting was over, all the ministers left the place and returned home in mounts or sedan chairs.

"Master be careful of the steps. Young Master Pang Xu smiled slightly and walked past Tong Hao, his face full of pride.

A hint of murderous intent flashed in Tong Hao's eyes, but his eyes were always smiling, and the corners of his mouth were even more pursed and smiling, watching Pang Xu's departure.

"Commander Ji Wan, thank you for not falling into the ground!" Tong Hao saw Ji Wan in blue and purple cloak walking over on the side, his face showed gratitude, he knew very well that Ji Wan had a lot of his black materials in his hands.

"Taishi, we are opponents, but we are also cold. Ji Wan shook his head and sighed, then smiled a little self-deprecatingly and turned to leave.

Tong Hao was stunned, and looked at the lonely back of Ji Wan leaving with some surprise, he had never seen the high-spirited Ji Wan show such emotions, and today's court is full of tricks, the prince suddenly attacked him, and he never offended the prince.

What the hell is going on?

People who are sensitive and in high positions are all neurotics, and Tong Hao is no exception, he began to ponder, and then he wanted his faction to start looking around for news, hoping to know some troubles.

Qing Zhen and Shang Rong had already walked out, and the expressions of the two people, one was a wry smile and the other was angry.

"Qing Zhen, your daughter let me come out, I came out, you are a father, how did you shrink your head turtle? You are a general, you are not as good as me, a civil servant!" Shang Rong glared at Qing Zhen angrily, and then waved his sleeves and left.

Qing Zhen shook his head and smiled helplessly, Wenchen, you are not weak at all, a high-level Shangshu.

He is not worried about Shang Rong's anger now, but is worried about how he will explain to his daughter when he goes back.

That's it, let's be honest, the game of so many big people is not something that he can decide as a general.

......

In the post station, the handcuffs in Bai Qi's hands had been lifted, but there were more than a dozen guards of the Punishment Division wearing black robes and holding scimitars standing in front of him.

Each of them is a supreme realm, and occasionally there are a few sub-supremes.

"You have been handed over to us by the Lord of the Kingdom, come with us!" the guard at the head smiled coldly, his smile grim and strange.

None of the people who went to the Punishment Division left alive, so these guards looked at everyone who walked into the Punishment Division, as if they were looking at a dead person, even if they felt sad and cool.

Bai Qi's face was calm, but his heart was full of earth-shattering waves, and he still entered the Shen Criminal Division? Could it be that those who spoke good things to him in the court had failed?

The water in the Central Empire is very deep, and a scholar of the Ministry of Rites and a general guarding the border pass have not been able to protect themselves.

Bai Qi had anger in his heart, and even had the will to fight.

If you don't make a move at this moment, you may die!

I have to do it, I'm not a submissive person!

However, just as Bai Qi was about to make a move, the voice of Bai Qi of the Warring States suddenly came to his mind.

"Don't do it, go to the Criminal Division!"

"Why?" Bai Qi was stunned, and then asked him in a deep voice.

"Ji Wan, the commander of the Prudent Criminal Division, is your ninth senior brother!"
