The hall fell silent again. It seems that today's discussion should be over. The ending is predestined. Those were just formalities. After tonight, I wonder how many people's lives will be very different. For the better or for the worse, it's all unknown. The Su family, I'm afraid there will be no day to turn over.

I felt a pain in my heart, and I didn't know who it was. For themselves, for Prime Minister Su, for the Su family, or for the people who have suffered from life? Everyone will go through all kinds of lives. Many times, they don't have a choice. Only those who grasp the overall situation have the right to decide where you want to go in life.

When I thought about it, the emperor had already prepared the edict. He said solemnly: "Marquis Jing, check it, if there is nothing wrong, I will ask Prime Minister Su Cheng to send it out today." ”

Xia Lingran took Zhu's edict with both hands and read it carefully. He bowed his head slightly and said, "This kind of disposal can not only make the courtiers obey, but also solve the problem." ”

After that, he handed over the will in his hand to Prime Minister Su. Prime Minister Su shook his hand to catch it, slowly knelt down, and seemed to be a little sober in his mind. He laughed a little desolately, leaned forward, and said, "The old minister was guilty in his previous life, and he recreated the evil in this life and gave birth to this unworthy son. May Your Majesty cherish the hard work of the ministers all their lives, and have no requirements, I only hope that Your Majesty will remove the old ministers from the post of 'prime minister', so that the old ministers and the unscrupulous sons can cultivate themselves together, and spend the rest of their lives in order to cultivate the next life. I hope that Your Majesty will accept the whole, and the whole will be complete. ”

Prime Minister Su snorted heavily on the marble a few times, and his words were filled with pleading and sorrow.

The Emperor stood up and stepped out from behind the table. Step by step, it made me a little uneasy, as if footsteps were ringing from my heart.

The figure of the emperor was on top of me, next to me to be exact, I saw him calmly lifting up the body of Prime Minister Su, and his voice was a little hoarse: "Spread my will, wait for the matter of enclosure to be resolved, and let Prime Minister Su return to his hometown." and named the old prime minister Su as 'Ning Guogong' and enjoyed the first-class salary. In the future, children and grandchildren will enjoy the second-class reward. ”

Prime Minister Su looked at the emperor tremblingly, and cried: "Long live Xie, long live Xie." The old minister is ashamed of it, and he is ashamed of it......"

"The prime minister doesn't have to be polite. At this moment, it is getting late, and the old prime minister should rest early, and his body is important. This is the end of today's business. The Emperor spoke in a reassuring voice, his deep voice with a bit of gentleness.

"The emperor's great kindness to the Su family, the old minister can't repay it. In the next life, he should be a cow and a horse to repay the grace of God. The old minister will go home, Hao'er must have suffered in the past two days, and the old minister wants to go home to see. The old minister retired first. Prime Minister Su gradually stopped crying and wiped the tears on his face with the placket of his clothes.

Weichen also retired first. Solo, who was watching from the sidelines, also resigned.

The Emperor did not say anything, but nodded, looking at them with deep eyes.

Xia Lingran also looked at them quietly. Mo Xiyu's face was calm, and he didn't show any other expression. And Mo Nanhuan on his side had a bit of pity and firmness in his eyes.

Solo gently supported Prime Minister Su's weak body, and the two gradually left the imperial study.

I also looked at the figure of Prime Minister Su and left. I know that in the near future, the name of the Su family will not appear on this temple. The rise and fall of a family is over.

By the time the Emperor turned around, I had already closed my gaze and lowered my head again. No matter how much thoughts and feelings I have, I will no longer show them.

He didn't look at me, and his calm steps passed by me, with a bit of majesty. By the time I had settled down, he was back in his position behind his desk.

I didn't look up, my feet were so sore that I didn't feel anything, only an irresistible chill that poured into my panicked heart from time to time.

It's been two hours. Xiao Kazuko will definitely wait until his feet hurt, the outside is much colder than the inside, and I don't know if he is warm enough, this child, he will definitely catch a cold again. There is also no forgiveness, I don't know if he is waiting impatiently, and with anxiety and worry. Yuxue and willows, they must have prepared hot water and refreshments, and were standing outside the palace waiting anxiously.

I feel a little guilty in my heart, and I am guilty of being alone, and I am causing them to suffer with me.

If you don't look at it, you know that Mo Nanhuan next to him must have a mocking smile again. He's waiting to see the joke. Although Mo Xiyu didn't have any other expression, he definitely had a little happiness in his heart. Their great enemy is being punished, and it's no wonder if they're unhappy.

The emperor was expressionless and spoke: "Huan'er, there were insects in Hua Guifei's tea yesterday, why did you mention it?"

Mo Nanhuan looked at ease: "Erchen doesn't know. I only know that Hua Guifei invited her sons and imperial sisters to drink tea in the imperial garden, but she saw insects in the tea for no reason. Interrogated the palace maids and eunuchs who delivered tea, and no one knew why. The guards in the garden saw a suspicious figure appear. ”

"What about the guards, have you found out who it is?" the emperor spoke in a calm tone, without any emotion. But as I listened, my heart trembled.

"The guards are outside. Mo Nanhuan glanced outside, and then looked at me with a smug look in his eyes, with a little mockery.

The emperor didn't say anything, only heard the shrill voice of Wu Gonggong, the eunuch next to him, shouting, "Xuan-"

There were a few "Xuan-" outside, which sounded a bit like an echo, and it looked particularly strange in the cool hall.

At this time, a guard outside came in, and he was quite heroic. Just look at him kneeling down with his feet and saying in his mouth, "See Your Majesty." ”

"Yesterday's events are reported as they are. The emperor's eyes looked at him, and his words were a little sharp.

The guard, I know, is also a shadow. Let him handle this matter, but I am afraid that he will not be able to find a single leak. I secretly regretted in my heart, this time the matter was not easy to solve. 'M afraid...... My heart twitched hard.

This time, the emperor personally tried it, but I was afraid that there would be no good punishment without amnesty. I used to be able to bribe those people. I'm afraid not right now. I did bad things too smoothly, and I didn't even care about the presence of Hua Guifei. How could he not take the opportunity to push me behind my back. No forgiveness...... It doesn't matter if I'm punished myself, I'm used to it anyway. But without forgiveness, how can I be willing to let him suffer?

This time it was such a miscalculation, and the habit of filling rice buckets really became rice buckets. I cursed myself in my heart, and I wanted to hit the wall immediately.

The guard glanced at me and replied respectfully: "After investigation by my subordinates, the suspicious figure yesterday was a guard named 'Wu Forgiveness' close to the prince. ”

As soon as I heard this, my body immediately shook, and a few drops of cold sweat ran down my cheeks and dripped onto the cold black floor.

The Emperor's eyes slowly lifted, and the sharp gaze that was hard to dodge shot straight at me, and my body shook even more.

I kowtowed in a panic, and said in a trembling voice: "Father Qi, there is no such thing. The courtier's guard...... It was at the behest of Erchen that he went to the Imperial Hospital to get medicine for Erchen. Erchen has recently suffered from a cold...... Even if Erchen has the courage to do so, he doesn't dare to be disrespectful to Concubine Hua......"

Before I finished speaking, I heard Mo Nanhuan ask casually: "Then have you noticed any unusual behavior in the past few days?"

His eyes looked unintentional, but they swept at me mockingly.

Then, he chuckled again and said, "Brother Huang, are you retorting too quickly. And no one said it had to be you. Could it be ......" he paused.

I secretly screamed in my heart, "It's miserable".

Sure enough, the guard hesitated for a moment, then followed Mo Nanhuan's words and replied fluently: "Back to Your Highness, according to the investigation of your subordinates, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ordered a few eunuchs to catch insects the morning before yesterday. When they questioned the little eunuchs, they said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had coerced them to do so, otherwise they would be locked up. Moreover, let them take a closer look at the insects in Hua Guifei Tea, which they had indeed caught. ”

"Ridiculous. The Emperor slapped the piece in his hand fiercely, and with a furious rebuke, he stared at me, his eyes as if they were about to burst into flames.

My body was shocked, I couldn't care about anything else, I was so frightened that I only broke out in a cold sweat, and my back was wet. I hurriedly kowtowed, shouting, "Father's forgiveness, father's forgiveness." Erchen didn't mean to, Erchen just couldn't get used to the words and deeds of the third emperor brother and wanted to teach him a lesson. Erchen didn't mean to alarm Concubine Hua's jade driver. Father's life......"

Xia Lingran and Mo Xiyu obviously didn't want to do much, and the two watched this somewhat absurd farce. Unfortunately, it was a one-man show, and I was the only harlequin.

Mo Nanhuan looked smug and calm, as if he was enjoying an absolutely fun drama.

The emperor didn't say anything more, just lightly gestured to Gonggong Wu beside him with his eyes.
