For a time, Donglin Yan was in the limelight in the court for a while.

And today, Tanglin Shuo went to court, which also made many people look forward to it.

I saw that Donglin Shuo's bearing was completely unchanged from before, and there was no trace of injury at all, someone stepped forward to say hello, Donglin Shuo talked and laughed with these people, and in a blink of an eye, the emperor came.

The emperor's face was not very good, but the moment he saw Donglin Shuo, he eased a little, and said to Donglin Shuo: "How is the injury on the body of King Bei'an?" ”

Donglin Shuo hurriedly said: "Back to my father, it's all right." ”

The emperor nodded with satisfaction at this time, then looked around the court, and finally fell on the body of the Marquis of Pingchang and Xu Guanshou, and the two of them suddenly secretly screamed in their hearts.

But the emperor still didn't say anything, but said to Meng Haoyan, the secretary of the household department: "It is the autumn harvest season recently, and it is the busy time for the household department, Master Meng should hurry up and prepare the account book and hand it over to me." ”

Meng Haoyan hurriedly replied: "Back to Your Majesty, there is no drought and flood this year, it is a bumper harvest year everywhere, and please rest assured that the account book of this year's tax can be handed over to Your Majesty within seven days." ”

The emperor's complexion finally improved a lot, nodded at Meng Haoyan, and then said: "If it weren't for Lord Meng's active construction of water conservancy this year, there would be no bumper harvest this year. ”

Meng Haoyan hurriedly said: "The minister doesn't dare to give advice to His Majesty, the minister just did his job well, and he doesn't need any reward at all." ”

Seeing Meng Haoyan say this, the emperor nodded with satisfaction: "You have done a good job, unlike some people, who can't do their job well, but they do a good job!" ”

At this time, the courtiers suddenly understood why the emperor was so angry, and hurriedly knelt down together: "Please Your Majesty to calm your anger!" ”

"Stop your anger, you only know to let me be angry! But I never wanted to think about why I was angry! As soon as the emperor was excited, his head was blown again, rubbing his temples and closing his eyes on the dragon chair.

Seeing this, the ministers hurriedly persuaded: "Please also ask the emperor to take care of the dragon body!" ”

The emperor's head wind became more and more eyes, he eased up on the dragon chair for a long time before he eased up, and in the face of the ministers in the court, he closed his eyes a little helplessly.

"Go down!" The emperor seemed to have exhausted his strength, and said to the courtiers, and then glanced at Chu Nanyue and Dongling Shuo alone: "King Bei'an and General Chu will come to Taihe Hall after going down to the court." ”

The two hurriedly responded, and rushed to the Taihe Hall after the next court.

Chu Nanyue vaguely felt that it should be the Xu family's business, but she was not sure, after the two arrived at the Taihe Palace, they saw that Concubine Xian was massaging the emperor, the emperor closed his eyes comfortably, and it seemed that the husband and wife had reconciled.

It wasn't until Concubine Xian's massage was finished that the emperor opened his eyes and said to Tanglin Shuo, "Come up quickly." ”

Tanglin Shuo stepped forward, and the emperor pulled Tanglin Shuo to him and said, "A while ago, I was sorry for you and my mother, Shuo'er, I feel very guilty. ”

Although Donglin Shuo still had resentment against the emperor in his heart, he did not show it at this time, but pretended to be obedient and said: "Erchen knows the hardships of my father. ”

The Emperor let out a long sigh, and then said to Donglin Shuo, "Recently, I found something and I want you to take a look. ”

Tanglin Shuo had already guessed what it was, but he didn't show it on his face, and at this time, the emperor said to Chu Nanyue: "General Chu should also come and take a look." ”

Chu Nanyue hurriedly stepped forward, and then the emperor ordered his personal eunuch to bring a letter, and when a few people saw the contents of the envelope, everyone was taken aback.

This letter is evidence of corruption and bribery by the Marquis of Pyeongchang, and at the same time, the letterhead also said that the Marquis of Pyeongchang and the Marquis of Jingning were on good terms, and the two Marquis almost monopolized the power in the army, so the two of them did a lot of buying and selling military positions together.

You must know that buying and selling military positions in the army is almost a heinous crime, so the emperor will be angry when he sees this.

Seeing Jing Ninghou's name, Chu Nanyue was stunned for a moment, and then understood something.

The emperor is testing her loyalty, at this time it involves Chu Nanyue's own family, if Chu Nanyue is really loyal to the emperor, she should directly punish the Marquis of Jingning, if Chu Nanyue hides a cat in it, then the emperor will not have any trust in her in the future.

She couldn't help but feel terrible for the emperor's scheming, but she was glad that she no longer had any feelings for the Marquis of Jingning.

She then said: "Your Majesty, the matter is serious, it is better to investigate it carefully and then convict, the Marquis of Jingning and the Marquis of Pingchang are both ministers of the court, and this matter should be done cautiously." ”

The emperor nodded, and then looked at Donglin Shuo next to him, seemingly asking for Donglin Shuo's opinion, Dongling Shuo said to the emperor: "According to Erchen, corruption and bribery, buying and selling officials are all major crimes, and it is better to investigate carefully." ”

"So that's why I called you here, I want you to look into it." The emperor said to the two of them, what happened in the court recently, the emperor asked the two of them to do it, and both of them did it very beautifully, but this made the suspicious emperor start to doubt again, how sincere Dongling Shuo and Chu Nanyue were.

Especially in the recent matter of King Yu, even his most trusted son can lie to himself like this, so that the emperor can't help but wonder if his other sons have lied to him.

"The son will definitely find out this matter for his father." Tanglin Shuo hurriedly knelt down to show his loyalty, and at this time, Concubine Xian seemed to want to say something, but she didn't speak again.

"Okay, if the sixth child gets this matter done, I will re-canonize Concubine Xian as the queen." The emperor took Concubine Xian's hand and said to Donglin Shuo.

Hearing this, Tanglin Shuo's hands and feet immediately froze, how could he not understand the meaning of the emperor's words?

Concubine Xian was originally the queen, and the emperor would be deposed when she was confused, so why was Concubine Xian wrong? Now the emperor actually regards her throne as a reward for Donglin Shuo, which makes both mother and son very cold.

"And General Chu, you also help the sixth child to investigate this matter, you will also be the royal daughter-in-law in the future, it's time to do something for the royal family." The emperor said, looking at Chu Nanyue's gaze with some unclear meaning.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Chu Nanyue said to the emperor, seeing that the two of them were still loyal, the emperor waved his hand and said to the two: "I'm a little tired, you two go down first." ”

After the two of them left the Taihe Palace, Dongling Shuo said to Chu Nanyue: "Father, he was not like this before. ”

Chu Nanyue can also clearly feel that the emperor has changed, maybe after the death of the crown prince, the battle between the three princes in the court to seize the heir made the emperor a little afraid, or maybe it was King Yu who deceived the emperor and killed his brother to make the emperor start to be alert.

But the emperor is now beginning to suspect the two.

Chu Nanyue only understood at this time why Tanglin Shuo closed the door and didn't see those who came to him.

Now that King Yu has just been imprisoned, it is the most sensitive time for the emperor, if he rashly accepts those people, the emperor is afraid that he will not be the first to start doubting him.

Tanglin Shuo looked at the sky and said to Chu Nanyue: "The sky is about to change. ”

Chu Nanyue raised his head, and sure enough, he saw that it was already stormy and about to rain heavily, so the two hurriedly entered a pavilion to hide from the rain, but they just happened to see Dongling Yan and Chu Nanxin also here.
