In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Huo Pei'an was furious, and with a wave of his hand, all the things on the desk in the study were scattered on the ground in an instant. Tong Yuan stood aside tremblingly, not daring to say a word.

Early this morning, Rui Wang Liang Yinhuan, who had been bedridden in the mansion for many days, suddenly appeared on the Showa Palace, and his spirit seemed to be more healthy than ordinary people, and it seemed that his condition was fine. Just when everyone was stunned and surprised, even more shocking news broke out in the DPRK and China. Emperor Liang Yinhao, in front of all civil and military officials, said that the situation of unclear governance of officials in the court is particularly strict, and strict rectification is urgent. So Liang Yinhao personally issued an edict, asking the officials to revise the evaluation system for assessment officials, and appointed Rui Wang Liang Yinhuan to supervise this matter.

As soon as this remark came out, it immediately caused an uproar in the DPRK and China, and many officials questioned it, saying that King Rui had not been involved in court politics for many years and did not know much about the relationship and situation between officials in the DPRK and China. But for some reason, Emperor Liang Yinhao is like eating a scale, no matter how the ministers of the palace oppose and question, he is determined to go his own way and try to protect King Rui. Liang Yinhuan also said: "The problem of the rule of officials today may be because the relationship between officials is too complicated. However, the evaluation of officials is based on the officials' political achievements and abilities, rather than the relationship background, and if the officials have too many scruples, it will not be beneficial. Therefore, it is now necessary for people like King Rui who do not understand the way to intervene in order to uphold a fair heart and eliminate the bad tendencies of the court.

As soon as everyone saw the emperor's conclusive appearance, everyone knew that this matter was already a certainty, and it would be in vain to say anything more. Huo Pei'an naturally knew this truth, so he remained silent in the main hall until he went down to the court and returned to the mansion, and the anger that had accumulated in his chest completely exploded.

"What the hell is the emperor thinking this time?!" Huo Pei'an said angrily, his violently undulating chest showing his anger at the moment. "It took so much effort to get Liang Yinhuan out of Beijing, but the emperor Xiao'er gave Liang Yinhuan the opportunity to turn over again and again, does he know what the consequences of doing this will be?!"

Tong Yuan saw that although Huo Pei'an's face was flushed with anger, the movements of his hands had stopped, and the whole person just stood upright in the center of the room. Only then did Tong Yuan dare to slowly approach Huo Pei'an, and whispered, "Huo Xiang is angry." The emperor would suddenly make such a decision, which is strange! ”

"Of course there's weirdness here! The emperor obviously discussed with me a few days ago how to suppress King Rui, and at that time, he also cooperated with me and Dong Qian to frame Liang Yinhuan in the Showa Palace. But after only a few days of hard work, why did the emperor change so much that he actually reused that Liang Yinhuan? ”

"The emperor just came back from King Rui's mansion on the front foot, and the back foot changed his mind, and the lower official thought to himself, when the emperor visited King Rui regularly, he listened to King Rui's slander." Tong Yuan frowned and thought about it, then sighed heavily, and said unwillingly, "It's a pity that we don't know what he said to the emperor." ”

"Ben Xiang also sent someone to secretly inquire about what happened in the Rui Wangfu that day. However, all the people who accompanied the emperor to the Rui Palace's palace were silent about the events of that day, and Yan Yong and Yin Zheng's attitudes towards this matter were even more insipid and suspicious. Huo Pei'an gritted his teeth and said fiercely, "It would be nice if the queen was here that day, and the prime minister wouldn't have worked so hard, but he still didn't get anything." It's strange that you don't know where to get the 'secret recipe', which caused the queen to have a headache and missed the ceremony in vain! ”

"Xiaguan also hopes that the queen mother can give birth to Lin'er as soon as possible, and further stabilize Huo Xiang's position in the court, who knew that such a thing would happen, and Xiaguan is also ashamed in his heart!" Tong Yuan said with annoyance, his face full of apologetic expressions.

Huo Pei'an listened to Tong Yuan's words quite reasonably, and he was also kind to him, plus the queen's head wind disease is now completely cured, and the imperial doctor also said that there is no major problem with her body, so Huo Pei'an did not blame Tong Yuan more. Huo Pei'an sat back in steps, looked at the mess in the room, and said tiredly: "As soon as this incident happened, our future situation can be described as passive everywhere, how should we deal with it next?" ”

Tong Yuan comforted in a soft voice: "My lord's words are inevitably premature. In the last case of the household deficit, Ruiwang ended up empty. Maybe this time Ruiwang will learn to be obedient and know how to be more restrained? ”

Huo Pei'an closed his sour eyes, shook his head, and said, "If it is replaced by other judicial institutions in the six ministries, there may still be this possibility." But the emperor handed over the affairs of the ministry to Liang Yinhuan, which is very bad! ”

Tong Yuan naturally understood the deep meaning of Huo Pei'an's words. Hu Zhihan, the secretary of the ministry, is old, and for many years, the corpse has been a vegetarian meal, and it has been known to everyone. Many things Hu Zhihan can push, and if he can't push it, he will hand it over to Dong Qian, the servant of the ministry. And Dong Qian is Huo Pei'an's person, he acts on Huo Pei'an's face in many things, and Huo Pei'an can be regarded as controlling most of the officials. And now the emperor suddenly asked King Rui to meddle in the affairs of the ministry, which clearly challenged Huo Pei'an, intending to break down Huo Pei'an's power in the court. What's more, in the matter of cleaning up the treasury deficit that day, in the end, Huo Pei'an and Dong Qian joined forces to slander and frame King Rui, which caused King Rui to be grounded in the mansion for a month. Now that there is suddenly such an excellent opportunity, how can Liang Yinhuan let go of Dong Qian and let go of the officials?

Although Tong Yuan understood this truth, he still pretended to be no big deal on his face, and tried his best to persuade Huo Pei'an to wait and see what happened, and not to act rashly. In fact, it was not that he Tong Yuan really felt that King Rui was not afraid, but that he came to the Prime Minister's Mansion today to be ordered by Concubine Chen to deliberately delay Huo Pei'an's counterattack.

Tong Yuan's dark eyes turned without a trace, and he bowed his head and said, "According to the lower officials, the more times like this, the more adults have to endure it." In today's hall, you have seen with your own eyes how the emperor refutes those opposing ministers and how he argues for King Rui. The emperor is now dizzy from the bewitchment of King Rui, no matter what you say at this time. The emperor can't listen to it, and maybe he will have a bad reputation for 'provoking'. ”

Huo Pei'an felt that Tong Yuan's words also made some sense, and said, "But you can't do nothing, right?" I have already thought about it, and I will send that Dong Qian to the mansion tomorrow to discuss the future countermeasures. ”

Tong Yuan leaned into Huo Pei'an's ear and said cautiously: "This is the second thing that Xia Guan wants to say. The emperor already knows the relationship between Lord Dong and you, so in order to avoid danger and no longer arouse the emperor's suspicion. It is not appropriate for adults to see Dong Qian again. ”
