As soon as they entered the imperial study, a kind of coercion that belonged to the emperor alone came straight to the two of them.

There was no need to raise their heads, let alone make a sound, Zhang Yimu and Su Lingzhi already understood in their hearts that it was their emperor, the supreme saint of the Nanling Kingdom, who was sitting above.

Zhang Yimu, who took the lead, knelt down calmly to the superior, and said respectfully: "Zhang Yimu, the Marquis of Anping, has seen a saint!" My Emperor is blessed with holy peace! ”

Compared with Zhang Yimu's calmness, Su Lingzhi, who had a ghost in his heart, seemed a little flustered.

However, Su Lingzhi is also a person who has been in the officialdom for a long time, and he understands in his heart that even if Su Yin has caused another catastrophe, as long as the saint has not been punished, he is still the secretary of the Ministry of Rites ordered by the saint himself.

This should not be abolished, and if it comes, it will be safe, and it will be dismantled!

Su Lingzhi quickly miraculously calmed down, knelt down beside Zhang Yimu like a cloud, and praised in his mouth: "Su Lingzhi, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, respectfully invites Sheng'an." ”

There was a dead silence in the imperial study, and if it weren't for the sound of thick and thin breathing from time to time, it would make people feel that there was no second person here except themselves.

Such an atmosphere, not to mention Su Lingzhi, even Zhang Yimu, who was originally calm and calm, couldn't help but mention it in his heart.

Could it be that something happened in the palace, and it has something to do with the concubine?

Zhang Yimu's heart was finally a little unsettled, and he finally remembered his eldest sister's niece Su Yinlai.

Thinking back to Su Lingzhi's abnormal appearance today, Zhang Yimu felt that he had guessed the truth, it must be the niece of the Su family who had an illness and had a great change in temperament to get into trouble again, but I don't know what kind of trouble it was this time, and even with himself, he had to eat the saint's hanging!

Although Zhang Yimu complained about Su Lingzhi in his heart, he couldn't express anything in front of the saint, and only knelt silently, bearing the aura of a tyrant from the emperor.

After a long time, Su Lingzhi, who was nearly sixty years old, felt that he was about to kneel, and the saint's obviously weak voice came from the top: "Get up and speak." Zhang De gave the two adults a seat. ”

"Your Majesty." The two of them, whose legs were numb from their knees, got up from the ground tremblingly while bowing to the Holy Grace.

At this time, Zhang De had already pointed to the two little eunuchs and placed a chair behind each of them, although the two of them wanted to sit on the chair with a big sword, but at this time they had to hold on to their flesh and skin, raise their spirits, straighten up and half-sit on the chair, facing the anger of the saint.

That's right, now that both of them have felt the aura emanating from the saint's body, it is indeed a monstrous anger, and there will definitely be no mistake!

What Zhang Guifei, the fifth princess and Su Yin did was not complicated to say, so it only took the queen and the crown prince one day and night to investigate the ins and outs of the matter clearly.

At this time, the investigation file was placed on the royal table in front of the saint.

Su Lingzhi glanced at the upper position, but he was facing the sage's gloomy gaze, which made Su Lingzhi plop down and kneel down again.

Su Shangshu knelt down again, got up and sat down to talk. The saint's voice no longer had a trace of affection, as if it was still extremely gentle, but when he heard Su Lingzhi's ears, it was like a magic sound, where did he dare to really get up and sit down, but he couldn't stand on the ground.

has been an official for so many years, since the saint was still the prince, Su Lingzhi has been an official in the Ministry of Rites.

From a small principal to today's Shangshu, not to mention a complete understanding of the saint's temperament, but he can also understand everything.

The calmer the saint is, the more angry he is in his heart.

At this time, Su Lingzhi had only one hate in his heart, hating himself for not being able to send Su Yin back to his ancestral hometown.

If the last time Su Yin was ashamed to be sent down by the saint in the palace, he could have been ruthless enough to send Su Yin back to his ancestral home to marry him, how could he still be afraid today?

At this time, although Su Lingzhi knew in his heart that Su Yin must have caused a bigger disaster than the last time, no one had to tell him the news, so he could only lie on the ground, and he couldn't say anything to accuse him of guilt and ask for forgiveness.

"Humph!" The saint snorted softly.

This time, even Zhang Yimu couldn't sit still, no matter what thirty-seven twenty-one, he still knelt down first.

Since the sage asked the prince to keep him together, even if something happened to Su Yin, since this matter was in the palace, it must have nothing to do with Concubine Zhang Guifei.

"Hehehe......" The sage's chuckle came from the upper position, and he couldn't hear any emotion, but it made the two kneeling feel a little creepy, and after the laughter, there was the sound of flipping the paper.

After a while, the saint's voice rose again: "Why can't the two Aiqing kneel for a long time, I let the prince keep the two today, it is really a difficult thing to ask the two of you to get an idea, but I didn't expect to make the two Aiqing tired!" The two of you got up and sat down first. Zhang De, and show this case file to the two adults. ”

"Yes." Zhang De replied respectfully, and after a small sound of footsteps, Zhang De's voice appeared above the heads of the two: "Two adults, please." ”

There are two copies of the case file, and it is not known whether the contents are the same.

But when Su Lingzhi and Zhang Yimu got up with their chairs and took the file in Zhang De's hand, but they only swept the first page of the case file, and the two knelt down again.

While knocking his head on the same page, he apologized again and again: "The minister is guilty, and the minister deserves death......

Whether it was Su Lingzhi or Zhang Yimu, they definitely didn't expect Su Yin to be so bold and dare to pry the fifth princess with a love for the saint.

I didn't expect Zhang Guifei to make such a stupid move, knowing that the incense might cause harm to the saint's body, but in order to go against the queen and help her daughter compete for favor, she actually let Su Yin and the fifth princess be bold.

The most hateful thing is that in the end, he was actually exploited by the spies in the palace and placed a heavier "Hehuan San" in the infatuated incense.

That Hehuansan was the culprit who led the sage to faint and almost die in Huangquan.

Although Zhang Guifei reported to the doctor in time and let the saint save a life, in the end, the saint was greatly injured, and he could neither work hard nor do more in the future.

The palace maid who took advantage of the loophole was a spy buried in the palace in the early years of Beichen Kingdom, and when the queen mother ordered the queen and the prince to investigate thoroughly, she had committed suicide in fear of crime.

As for the punishment decision of Zhang Guifei, the fifth princess and Su Yin, the sage already had a plan in his heart, but he still wanted to see what Su Lingzhi and Zhang Yimu would do after reading this case file.

"Su Lingzhi, are you guilty?" The sage first attacked Su Lingzhi.

"The minister knows the sin, and the minister has no way to discipline him, so that there is today's disaster. Death is not enough to repay the favor, let alone apologize, and the minister is willing to accept any punishment. Su Ling's heart was like ashes, but he still hoped that the saint would be able to open his face.

Sure enough, this is what Su Lingzhi, an old fox, will do!

The saint smiled gloomily, obviously seeing through Su Lingzhi. (To be continued.) )
