12. There is no brotherly love

This case is like a hot potato, and I don't know how to deal with it. Back in the imperial study, I wailed and lay on the table, looking at Yan Xiaoran who came in behind me: "You say, what should I do?" ”

Yan Xiaoran turned around and brought up the door of the imperial study, he leaned against the door with his hands on his chest, and looked at me with a very subtle look in his beautiful eyes: "Why don't you try it yourself, how to solve a good thing." With an IQ like yours, even if you get the right in the future, it's worrying. ”

Me: "......" Yan Xiaoran has humiliated my IQ more than once, although I also admit that I am stupid. "But, it's clear that you asked me to take care of this case."

Yan Xiaoran sighed: "Tut...... Gu Shu, Gu Shu, if it weren't me by your side, how would you be? There was a kind of sigh in his words, as if he was sighing.

Hearing what he said, I was slightly stunned. If the person around me is not him...... Maybe it's someone else, or maybe it's nothing. I coughed lightly, and said awe-inspiringly, "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have encountered such a thing as suing the emperor at all." If it weren't for you instigating me to join forces with Gu Chen to deal with my uncle. I'll just be a mess and continue to be a puppet emperor who doesn't do anything. Even if there is a case of suing, I just need to hand over the matter to my uncle at that time. ”

Yan Xiaoran suddenly hooked his lips, his bewitching thin lips hooked a beautiful arc, and the corners of his lips were like a beautiful flower blooming. "Gu Shu, you're not stupid."

It was rare for him to praise me, so I immediately sat up straight and smiled shyly: "Don't praise me, I will be proud." ”

Yan Xiaoran: "......"

Ignoring my narcissism, he asked, "So, do you know how to fix it?" ”

I blurted out, "You mean to let me throw this hot potato to my uncle?" ”

Yan Xiaoran approved: "Gu Shu, Gu Shu, it seems that I am going to retract my previous opinion of you." ”

I wondered, "What did you think of me before?" ”

"I thought you were just a straw bale, a big straw bale with no ambitions." Yan Xiaoran said mercilessly.

Me: "You're the bale of straw, your whole family is a bale of straw!" "This bastard, say that about me to my face!

He glanced at me and continued, "Now it seems that you are actually pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger. He looked at me thoughtfully, making me a little afraid to look him in the eye.

Pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger is a bit exaggerated, but I still have a little cleverness. I am sensible, know how to measure, know how to advance and retreat, and fully cooperate with my uncle to be an obedient emperor, so that I will not be ousted from power soon. If it weren't for Yan Xiaoran, maybe I would have been pretending to be stupid until my uncle usurped the throne.

"But ......" Yan Xiaoran's right finger lightly touched his arm, and suddenly sneered: "King Nanling doesn't have much sincerity in cooperation." ”

I looked at him and wanted him to explain clearly.

Yan Xiaoran slowly walked to my side, poured herself a cup of tea and said, "Do you think anyone has the courage to sue the emperor?" He shook the cup in his hand, took a sip and said, "According to my investigation, this Mo girl should be a woman from the rivers and lakes who lives in the Nanling Palace." ”

When I heard him say this, I suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and I slapped the desk and said, "You mean, this Miss Mo is actually my imperial brother's person?" ”

"He showed the way." Yan Xiaoran said: "He wants to test whether there is a gap between you and Uncle Guo." Or maybe he has something else in mind and wants to profit from it......"

It turns out that this is the case, I secretly hate in my heart, Gu Chen, a bad boy, has passed so many years, and his heart is still so wilted. I wondered, "What should I do after I hand over the case to my uncle?" ”

"The incumbent cares most about the people's heart. You find an opportunity to hand over the matter to your uncle in a high-profile manner, and it is best to let the people of the whole capital know. If Uncle Guo had the intention to replace you, he would not shield that Wei Yong. If he shields and does not give the people an explanation, he will lose the hearts of the people. When the time comes, I believe that you will be more loved by the people. ”

I thought thoughtfully: "But if you think about it carefully, it seems that Gu Chen didn't get any benefits." ”

Yan Xiaoran glanced at me: "If something like this happens, the two people from the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Criminal Affairs will be to blame, and then it will be time to exchange blood." I think the benefit of Gu Chen is to insert his own people into it. ”

Speaking of which, the clear path of the whole thing is basically clear, Yan Xiaoran looked at me pitifully: "It's just a pity, you don't have a confidant, let Gu Chen pick up a cheap one in vain, otherwise you can replace the Ministry of Industry with your own people." ”

I nodded: "I can't let him take advantage of this for nothing." "It's a shame that she gave him the dumplings he likes to eat that day to express his sincerity to cooperate, but he also stumbled on himself, it's so no brotherly love, what if you want to be together?

Yan Xiaoran's eyes gradually became weird: "Since King Nanling gave you this gift, then...... I'll give you a bigger gift. ”

I looked at his expression, as if he was innocently talking about what to eat today. I shuddered for no reason, and silently retracted the sentence I just said that Gu Chen was bad, no matter how bad he was, he was not as bad as Yan Xiaoran. I lit wax for the imperial brother in my heart, I hope he will not be designed too miserably by Yan Xiaoran. At the same time, I am once again glad that Yan Xiaoran and I are currently on the same front.

――――――

In the early dynasties, I was wearing a dark dragon robe and sitting on the dragon chair with a stern face. Glancing at the minister below, I stopped on the body of Master Li of the Ministry of Works, and looked at him who had been wiping the sweat on his face, and then I turned my gaze away.

Yan Xiaoran said that this is called overwhelming the other party in terms of momentum.

"Something to start, nothing to retreat." The father-in-law yelled at the top of his voice.

No one stepped forward to say anything, so I sat up straight and stared at Master Li. After a long time, I pretended to say: "It seems that my Nanling has been very peaceful recently, and all of you Aiqing have nothing to report." ”

Many ministers nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, yes." ”

I snorted coldly, picked up the book on the table and threw it over, and smashed it right at my uncle's feet. I swallowed my saliva, covered my pounding heart, recalled the way Yan Xiaoran demonstrated me before, and said, "It seems that all of you Aiqing are deaf and blind." Yesterday caused a sensation in the capital's complaint, and you don't know it. ”

Xu is what I said, and it really brought majesty and anger, and led all the ministers except my uncle to kneel. "Majesty xià sighs anger ......"

The uncle stepped forward and said, "What the little woman said is not a big deal, so everyone ignores ......."

"Not a big deal?" I raised my voice suddenly, and said with a sad expression: "Uncle Guo, my own uncle, how can you make me embarrassed by saying this?" ”

My uncle obviously didn't expect me to sing this one, and his expression was a little weird.

I continued: "Lang Lang Qiankun, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, there is a scum like Wei Yong, how can I be worthy of the first emperor? robbed the people's daughters, arrogant and lascivious...... Isn't it a trivial matter to arrest a local parent official on trumped-up charges? Master Li, do you know about this? ”

When Master Li of the Ministry of Industry heard my name, he knelt down and took two steps forward: "Your Majesty forgive your sins, the minister's wife and brother, he is indeed arrogant and indulgent on weekdays, but he will never dare to do such a thing, please be aware of it." ”

Yo he, I don't admit it yet, it seems that the aftermath has been cleaned up. I snorted coldly: "So, yesterday a girl's house, hit the board, got off the oil pot, and rolled the iron plate to sue the royal court, just to frame your wife and brother?" I clutched my chest with a sad face: "Uncle, at your feet, I am a citizen, and the joint letter is about Wei Yong's crimes." ”

My uncle picked up the book of the hundred people under his feet, and I took the opportunity to say: "I know that my uncle usually neglects this aspect of the matter for the sake of Nanling's affairs. But this is about the people of Nanling, and it is about the local parents, so I can't sit idly by. Ladies and gentlemen, you say, is this kind of thing a big deal? ”

As soon as the words fell, but no courtiers answered, the audience was silent, and suddenly a clear and warm voice said: "What His Majesty said is very true, if the suffering of the people is not a big deal, then what is a big deal?" ”

Someone took the lead, and others followed suit, and I looked at Bai Qingyan with gratitude.

That's all I have to say, and my uncle can only agree with me.

I nodded: "Lord Li, do you still insist that your brother-in-law is innocent?" ”

Master Li couldn't answer for a while, and quietly turned his head to look at his uncle. I made persistent efforts: "Of course, if Wei Yong is really innocent, I will not wronged a good person, so I will ask Uncle Guo to investigate this matter thoroughly, and thoroughly investigate what Wei Yong did during his inspection, as well as the case of Master Mo who was detained by the Criminal Department." ”

My uncle touched his mustache, and his little eyes looked at me intently: "Your Majesty wants to hand over the case to the minister?" ”

Looking at my uncle's meaningful eyes, I don't know why, I'm a little square...... But at this point, I had no room to retreat, so I had to say seriously: "Yes, it is best to leave this matter to Uncle Guo, after all, I am still young." I believe that Uncle Guo will give a perfect explanation to me, to Lord Mo, to the people of the capital and the people of Xunyang. ”

"His Majesty gave the old minister such a big hat, and the minister was really frightened, so he asked His Majesty to accept ......"

I interrupted: "Only Uncle Guo can handle this matter well." Okay, that's it, if there is nothing else, let's retreat. I got up, my steps were a little hurried, and I walked out of the court in the unanimous congratulations of the ministers to the emperor.

Mother, this is the first time since I ascended the throne that I have been so serious in court. Now when the wind blows, I feel cold in my back, and when I was leaving, I always felt that there were a lot of eyes staring at me, and there was a feeling that the edge was stinging.
