The Champion Hou Mansion occupies a wide area, and the brother and sister deliberately slowed down, and when they reached Qiao Wan's residence, Qiao Zhao had already briefly explained the situation in the south. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Big brother-" Qiao Wan ran over with her skirt when she heard the movement, and was stunned when she saw Qiao Zhao.

Qiao Zhao was also stunned when he saw Qiao Wan.

I haven't seen her for a few months, but my younger sister has grown a lot taller.

Thinking of her current height, Miss Qiao suddenly felt a little congested.

Their Qiao family is tall, and Qiao will definitely not be short in the future, she seems to be a little bad......

"Why don't you speak?" Qiao Mo touched Qiao Wan's head.

Qiao Wan came back to her senses at this time, biting her lip and shouting "Sister Li".

Qiao Zhao responded with a smile: "I came in a hurry and didn't bring a gift, I'll make it up for you next time." ”

"No, I'm not a kid anymore. Qiao Wan quickly refused, rolled her eyes and asked, "Sister Li, you went out with my brother-in-law, right? Why don't you see my brother-in-law?"

"Your brother-in-law has something, and it will probably be dark before he comes back. Qiao Zhao said naturally.

Qiao Wan frowned, always feeling that the tone of the Li girl in front of her was strange, but she couldn't think of anything strange, and finally sighed: "I thought I would see my brother-in-law soon." ”

She grew taller and became more beautiful, and her brother-in-law must be happy to see it.

Shao Mingyuan, who was being missed by the little girl Qiao Wan, was standing in the imperial study with his head hanging at this moment, feeling the anger of the Son of Heaven.

Emperor Ming Kangdi still did not go to the court, he was wearing a regular dress at will, and his face was as heavy as water, staring at Shoufu Lanshan: "Lanshan, Xing Wuyang was recommended to me by you, what did you say at that time that this person is loyal to the liver and courage, has a blue blood and a heart, and can be a good general." What about now? In collusion with the Japanese invaders, the officials forced the people to rebel, and even provoked a mutiny, is the next step to seek to seize the country?"

Emperor Ming Kangdi was so angry that he slapped the dragon case, and Shoufu Lanshan knelt below and kowtowed honestly: "The old minister should die, the old minister should die." The old minister forgot that people will change, it is the old minister who is clumsy and does not know people clearly, please punish the emperor!"

Emperor Ming Kangdi stared at Lan Shan without saying a word, and Lan Shan was also open-minded, raising his hand and slapping himself hard.

The spacious imperial study room was crowded with people at the moment, in addition to Shao Mingyuan and Shoufu Lanshan, there were also Jinlanwei Commander Jiang Tang, Second Auxiliary Xu Mingda, Shangshu Su He of the Ministry of Rites, and the highest officials of the Criminal Department, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the Dali Temple.

At this time, everyone stood tremblingly in the imperial study, listening to the sound of slapping and slapping, and they didn't dare to say anything.

Although their emperor has not been in court for three days, he is not the kind of weak and incompetent emperor, he is really going to anger the emperor, and he must be ready to be cleaned up at any time.

But-

Everyone hung their heads and glanced at Lan Shan out of the corner of their eyes.

As the head of the dynasty, even in the face of the emperor, he said that he would slap himself in the face, and not every courtier could do it.

Sure enough, I heard Emperor Ming open his mouth coldly: "Enough, a shoufu, like a minion, slapping himself in the mouth, is it because he is afraid that others will not say that he is stupid?"

Lan Shan immediately stopped, kowtowed again and again, and his attitude was extremely humble: "The old minister is guilty, the old minister is guilty, I just hope that the emperor will not break his body because of the old minister's anger, it is the blessing of the old minister." ”

Everyone rolled their eyes in unison.

patted Lan Shoufu on the back, and they were also convinced.

Emperor Ming Kangdi looked at Lan Shan condescendingly, and saw that his gray and sparse hair looked embarrassed because of the repeated movements, and the hair on the top of his head could no longer cover his scalp, and his heart couldn't help but soften a little.

This is an old minister who has been with him for more than 20 years, and he still remembers that he once sighed that Lanshan had a good happening and deserved the reputation of "beautiful bearded man".

In the snap of his fingers, the bearded man of the year became a bald old man who was almost old, which made people's eyes astringent.

Life is short, the years are ruthless, and sure enough, you still have to unswervingly take the road of cultivating immortals in order to sit on the country forever. Ming Kangdi sighed in his heart.

Xu thought of the Great Dao of Immortality, and Emperor Ming Kang's anger decreased slightly, and his hand was raised.

Wei Wuxie, the pen-holding eunuch who had been standing behind Emperor Ming Kang as if he was invisible, immediately took the white fungus soup with just the right temperature and handed it over.

Emperor Ming Kangdi moistened his throat and said lightly: "You all talk about Xing Wuyang, what are you going to do?"

Kneeling on the surface of Lan Shan below, he didn't dare to change in the slightest, but he quietly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

He has passed this level for the time being, and as for Xing Wuyang, he can only ask for more blessings.

Emperor Ming Kangdi was angry and threw out the most troublesome question, and all the ministers present bowed their heads and were silent.

"Why don't you speak?" Ming Kangdi's face became even more gloomy.

He didn't let them be wallflowers with these wine bags and rice bags!

The ministers' scalps were numb, and they looked at each other, and they all had one thought in their hearts: You can speak quickly, if you don't speak, the emperor will be angry!

"Huh?" Ming Kangdi hummed a word from his nostrils.

The ministers' legs trembled, and they made up their minds not to be the first to speak.

Let's not talk about the relationship between Xing Wuyang and Shoufu Lanshan, whoever opens this mouth first will have to be bitten by Lanshan in the future. The most important thing is that Xing Wuyang's crimes and executions are all light, but he has been in Fudong for many years, if anyone makes this appropriate suggestion and forces Xing Wuyang to rebel, it will be cleaned up by the emperor over and over again.

Emperor Ming Kang's gaze slowly swept over everyone, and he sneered in his heart.

Don't think he doesn't know what these bastards think, and they don't want to take responsibility for any of them!

All of them are important ministers of the country, pillars of the court, what do they want to do if they don't take responsibility? How can they scramble to share his elixir?

Emperor Kang's eyes finally fell on Shang Shu Kou Xingze of the Criminal Department.

Kou Xing is Qiao Zhao's maternal grandfather.

"Kou Shangshu, your in-laws didn't die in an accident, but were killed and set on fire, I don't know what you think?"

Kou Xing immediately knelt down: "The minister implores the emperor to severely punish the murderer." ”

"Well, the murderer is not only Li Zongyu, the prefect of Jianan, but also Xing Wuyang. Emperor Ming Kangdi smiled and said with a smile.

Kou Xing broke out in a cold sweat behind his back, and said in his heart: They have accumulated blessings for several lifetimes, and they have such an emperor who is not easy to serve, and the emperor is forcing him to say what he will do with Xing Wuyang.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that although there are account books of Xing Yushi to confirm Xing Wuyang's evil deeds of embezzling military salaries and colluding with the Japanese invaders, but in the case of the Qiao family's fire, it is still necessary for the three law divisions to interrogate the suspects and interrogate witnesses to determine whether the matter is related to Xing Wuyang. ”

Ming Kangdi tugged at the corners of his mouth.

The old thing kicks the ball well.

Hmph, who can kick the ball!

"Kou Shangshu, I remember that I ordered Li Guangyan, the servant of the Criminal Department, to go to Jiafeng to investigate the case, but at that time, I came to the conclusion that the fire in Qiao's house was purely accidental!"

Kou Xing wiped his sweat: "The emperor forgives the sin." ”

Emperor Ming Kang snorted coldly and looked at Xu Mingda, the second assistant: "Xu Cifu, what do you think should be done with Xing Wuyang?"

Xu Mingda's heart sank, and he pondered: "It stands to reason that Xing Wuyang's crime is unforgivable, and there is no controversy about how to deal with it, but he has been in Fudong for many years, and his roots are deep, if he doesn't get it right, it is likely to cause turmoil——"

At this time, Xing Yushi opened his mouth: "Your Majesty, the minister still has something to report." ”
