As soon as Yao'er saw him salute himself, he hurriedly avoided a step and returned the salute: "The lower official should not be a salute to Su Xiang, the lower official came today, but he was only ordered to bring Wang Hongyi to the case, and the lower official has no right to intervene in Su Xiang's case." ”

When Su Wei heard it, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Yao'er saw that he was only fifty years old, his hair was already half white, his hair was fluffy, his face was haggard, and he couldn't bear it in his heart after all, and suddenly wanted to hear what Pei Kun said to him yesterday, so he said: "The sage's eyes are shining, and the candle is in the world, if Su Xiangruo is not at fault, he will definitely not wronged you." If there is a mistake, you should sincerely repent of it, the saint is the reincarnation of Maitreya, and he has great compassion, or he will open the net. ”

When Yao'er said this, she arched her hand at him, turned around and retreated.

Xia Ru and Zhang Xi also heard these words, but these words were not painful or itchy, and they were just more depressed when they heard it, how could they go to their hearts. Only Su Wei, when Yao'er was halfway through speaking, his eyes touched him, and he faintly lost a look, Su Wei saw it in his eyes, and his heart suddenly moved.

Looking at the back of Yao'er leaving, Su Wei chewed Yao'er's words repeatedly, and gradually smacked some flavors. If Yao'er just comforted him like this, he wouldn't have any other thoughts, this is a very common word of comfort, just like when there is a funeral at home, others must say "condolences and change".

But coupled with Yao'er's meaningful eyes, Su Wei didn't think that this sentence was so simple. He still didn't understand why, but he had decided to give it a try according to Yao'er's words, maybe his hope was in this one look and one sentence......

Yao'er led people out of the court. The outside was already full of people from the Yushitai, and when they saw that Wang Hongyi was locked by them, they immediately made an uproar. Immediately, some people surrounded and questioned loudly, Kou Qinggong was not ambiguous, shouting at the top of his voice, "Take people by order", after some hustle and bustle, those people heard that they were really coming by order, but they didn't dare to stop it, they just looked at them with hateful eyes.

Yao'er stood behind and let them make trouble. A pair of eyes scanned the crowd intentionally or unintentionally, and he didn't believe that the person in charge of the Imperial Observatory would not show up. Kou Qing Palace has a holy purpose, and no one can stop him from coming to get people. Even if the handsome subordinate who covered the sky with one hand was still there, he couldn't stop it.

But came forward to ask about the situation, appeased Wang Hongyi, and even stacked a few cruel words to fill the scene. But it is the duty of a chief officer. If not. The morale of the Imperial Observatory is bound to plummet.

Sure enough, it came.

Yao'er saw Wei Suizhong and Hou Sizhi who came in a hurry, and smiled secretly in her heart, but she couldn't help but be a little surprised when she didn't see Cheng Wanguojun in the current imperial history. Although this person has no leadership courage, but he is scheming You Shengjun is three points under his ministers, he will not fail to understand that the more times like this, the more he needs to come forward to stabilize people's hearts.

But it doesn't matter if Wan Guojun doesn't come. It was Hou Sizhi who he was going to beat, and it was the same if he said it to him directly.

Wei Suizhong and Hou Sizhi came. The people of Goshitai immediately flashed to both sides and made way for them.

When Wang Hongyi saw Hou Sizhi, he immediately said excitedly: "Brother Hou, Wan Zhongcheng, you must be the master of the little brother!" ”

Hou Sizhi comforted: "Hongyi don't panic, Wan Zhongcheng has not come back when he goes to Dali Temple to do business, and when he comes back, our brothers must discuss a countermeasure to save you, our Yushitai is not a soft persimmon that can be kneaded by others, we will definitely get it back for you for this justice." ”

Yao'er smiled and said, "Cough! The official was ordered by the king to try this case, if the imperial history is wronged, the official will return him justice, if he is really guilty, this is a case that the king is concerned about, I am afraid that no one can save him. ”

Wei Suizhong's face was full of anger, and he sneered disdainfully: "Changshi, you are really majestic!" My Taiwan prison has always only brought people in, and it is the first time that someone else has taken people out of our imperial platform. ”

Yao'er smiled and said: "Why make such a fuss about Wei Yushi, Yushitai is not a Longtan tiger's den, if someone breaks the law here, it will naturally be difficult to escape the punishment of national law." As the saying goes, if you have one, you will have two, and this time you will only take one, and the next time you may take two, you will just get used to it. ”

Wei Suizhong's nose was almost out of breath, and he shouted: "Don't be too rampant! When I was a royal historian, I can't be bullied, if you take me a royal history today, you will have to compensate you a thousand times in the future. ”

Yao'er's expression was cold, and he said with a smile: "There are hundreds of officials in the court, and there are thousands of officials in the world, and you can't catch these loyal officials." It's you, do you think it's okay for this official to arrest only one Wang Hongyi? If you don't know, unless you don't do it, you should plan for yourself first! Let's go, let's go back to Kouqing Palace! ”

Yao'er waved his hand, lined up everyone, and escorted Wang Hongyi out of the Yushi Terrace. Hou Sizhi heard the words she stacked on the side, and couldn't help but be surprised: "It seems that they have been staring at my Yushitai for a long time, I'm afraid that we still have some handle in his hands, otherwise we wouldn't be so hard." ”

Looking at Yao'er's back, Hou Sizhi suddenly thought that he had a trick, and couldn't help but secretly say: "No, just in case, I have to take precautions early!" ”

Wang Hongyi still had a trace of luck in his heart, hoping that Yao'er just got some news of chasing the wind and shadows, but when he saw Xue Pingyan, the shopkeeper of the "Treasure Pavilion", the young man next to Xue Pingyan, and Zhao Yu, who had given him three generous gifts and was kneeling there crying at the moment, and then saw that the housekeeper who had witnessed all his bribes and the brother-in-law who kept the stolen money and goods for him were all arrested, Wang Hongyi immediately collapsed.

There are so many characters who have not seen many big scenes, and there is no need to use heavy punishment for them, only need to interrogate them separately, and with a little intimidation, the prisoners who cannot collude can be found out all the secrets.

Kou Qing Palace is not monolithic, and under the heavy profit, someone has already revealed the ironclad news of Wang Hongyi to the people of Yushitai. Wan Guojun, who hurriedly rushed back to Yushitai from Dali Temple, was cold in his heart as soon as he heard the news, and he knew that Wang Hongyi could not be saved.

If Wang Hongyi falls into the hands of others, or he can still operate and exert pressure on the other party, turning big things into small things and small things, but since the opponent is Kou Qing Palace, will they let go of this opportunity to suppress the Imperial Historical Observatory? In particular, the person presiding over the case is Yao'er. This person used to be a prisoner of the Imperial Historical Terrace, and he hated the Imperial Historical Observatory to the bone, and he would never open the net.

Wan Guojun inhaled the cool air slightly. As if he had a toothache, he said, "Yao'er! What a Yao'er! What a Kouqing Palace! What a political hall! ”

Wan Guojun sneered, his face distorted with a smile, like a crazy gambler who had lost all his chips: "They would rather give up the three prime ministers than put us to death!" ”

Hou Sizhi seemed to have become the splash who sold cakes in Lin'an City again, and said angrily: "We arrested three prime ministers, but they only arrested us with a royal history, this deal." It's worth it! I don't believe that all the officials in the DPRK and China are clean under their buttocks, and as a prime minister, they must be benefited by others, how can those officials be an exception. Let's find some more evidence, arrest more people in, and see who can't bear it first! ”

Wan Guojun shook his head again and again: "It's not that easy!" You're thinking too simply! Zhang Xi sold his official beard and used the official weapons of the court for his own personal gain. This is something that the Son of Heaven cannot tolerate. That's why I'm furious. As long as it is not hindered by the overall situation, if it is only a small benefit in the process of governance, the Son of Heaven will not care. The queen understands better than you and me that she will not let us hunt and kill indiscriminately and put many officials in prison. Otherwise, who will clean up the government and politics? You. Or me? ”

Wan Guojun sneered: "The queen is old and not faint, and she understands it very well in her heart. She knows what we're used for. She also knows what we can do, govern the people and preside over the government, or rely on those scholars, she will not rely on us. ”

Wei Suizhong glared and said, "Then what do you say we should do?" ”

Wan Guojun paced a few steps slowly in the room, bit the root of his teeth, and said: "They are looking forward to us messing up, as long as we are messed up, we don't need to do it at that time, the queen sees that we are making too much trouble, weighing the pros and cons, and has to strangle our minions." ”

Hou Sizhi was not shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "What should you do in your opinion?" ”

Wan Guojun glanced at him, and said angrily: "Wang Hongyi's crime is conclusive, we can't save it, they are looking forward to their rescue now, so as to catch us." Let's stand still, and respond to all changes with the same, hum, they are willing to have three prime ministers, so we are reluctant to have a royal history? ”

Wei Suizhong and Wang Hongyi are both from a pranky background, they have always been good friends, Wan Guojun is a scholar, and the relationship with them is not so close, after listening to Wan Guojun's words, Wei Suizhong was displeased, and said: "It's not you Wan Zhongcheng who dares to arrest you, is it that as long as you don't catch your head, no matter who our brother is calculated, you can stand by and watch?" ”

Wan Guojun said angrily: "They arrested Wang Hongyi, just hoping that we would rescue him, so that they could calculate one by one, knowing that it was a trap, and still rushing in?" How stupid! Zhongcheng entrusted the Yushitai to me, and it must not be destroyed in my hands! Endure when you should endure! Wang Hongyi's crime should not be punished, it is a big deal to be demoted and exiled, we are waiting for the opportunity, are we afraid that we will not be able to save him back? ”

Hou Sizhi heard what he said about the danger, and considering that he still had a scourge in his own house, he didn't have time to deal with it, so he hurriedly said: "What Wan Zhongcheng said is also reasonable, let's wait and see what happens." The current situation is not in our favor, and what is it to be dormant for a while, isn't it waiting for an opportunity in the same state now. ”

Wan Guojun saw that he agreed with his opinion, his expression looked better, and said: "Yes, who doesn't have three disasters and five difficulties, a temporary setback is nothing, Yao'er was our prisoner at the beginning, life and death are only in our thoughts, and now he is not riding on our heads to make a fortune?" Let's be patient, we may not have a chance to make a comeback in the future.

Wei Suizhong remembered that Yao'er was released from prison at the beginning, and he had made great efforts, but he never expected that Yao'er would become a big scourge of Yushitai today, and he secretly regretted it in his heart, and his momentum weakened, and he asked helplessly: "That...... What about the three prime ministers in prison? ”

Wan Guojun narrowed his eyes slightly, and said gloomily: "I'm afraid the original plan won't work, put it down for the time being, lock them up, and look at the wind." If Wang Hongyi is really disposed of......"

Wei Suizhong said viciously: "Then let the three prime ministers accompany Wang Yushi to tie up!" ”

……

In the cell, Su Wei no longer just sighed.

Probably because Wang Hongyi was arrested and there was no turnaround in the case of the three of him, Su Wei was completely desperate, he often sat cross-legged on the ground, weeping gloomily, and he didn't move a few mouthfuls of the most delicious food sent by his family every day, and later begged Wang Deshou to get him a pen and paper and write a suicide note.

In the suicide note, Su Wei taught his four sons earnestly, and his words were sincere, full of remorse for his violation of the national law, and left a family motto to ask his sons to stand upright, serve the court well in the future, and redeem themselves.

Because Su Wei is not a major case of rebellion, and it is not particularly difficult to pass on a family letter, he is the prime minister, and Wang Deshou still has to give this face, Wang Deshou promised to help him with this favor, and after he finished writing, he left with the letter.

Soon, Su Wei's suicide note appeared on Tian Qiniang's imperial case.

Tian Qiniang carefully read Su Wei's family letter, gently stacked it on the case, and said to Wang Deshou: "How have the three of them behaved in prison?" ”

Wang Deshou bowed and said: "Back to the saint, Su Wei sighs every day, and often weeps endlessly. Zhang Xi sat facing the wall, silent, and didn't even look back except when eating. Xia Ru scolded Zhang Xi several times, and occasionally sighed, since Yao'er locked Wang Hongwen from Taiwan Prison and left, Xia Ru seems to be much more forgiving, often walking around in prison, occasionally chanting a few poems, and eating a little more these days. ”

"You're doing a great job!"

Tian Qiniang nodded, and said approvingly to Wang Deshou: "As long as you are loyal to the old woman and work diligently, why worry about not being promoted, the previous persecution of the old man in charge of the country to bite the minister, but it was your big mistake, not to mention the mistake, it is extremely stupid!" ”

As soon as Wang Deshou, when he heard that there was a door, he quickly knelt on the ground and wept: "What the sage taught is that the minister is stunned for a while, and then he is ashamed of himself every time he thinks about it. The minister is guilty, the minister is ashamed! ”

Tian Qiniang waved her hand and said lightly: "That's it!" Seeing that you sincerely repent, you can still be a manufacturable material. Now that the Imperial History Observatory is withering, corrupt officials and corrupt history must be punished, but the Imperial History Observatory cannot fall, the old woman has the heart to promote you to be a servant of the Imperial History, and you will serve the court in the future! ”

Wang Deshou was surprised and delighted when he heard it, he turned out to be a judge, and he hoped that the official would be reinstated, but he didn't want to be promoted, and suddenly kowtowed like pounding garlic, and swore to show his loyalty, Tian Qiniang said impatiently: "Okay, okay, you can take back Su Wei's family letter, and send it back to the Su family." ”

Wang Deshou hurriedly agreed, took the letter respectfully and left.

Pei Kun looked at his back and smiled, and said to Tian Qiniang: "Do you intend to make a break for the three prime ministers?" ”

Tian Qiniang bowed her head and said: "The three prime ministers are in prison, they have not been dealt with for a long time, the officials are uneasy, and they have no intention of doing business, so they should also be punished." (To be continued......)
