The Criminal Division was deposed.

It was approved by Kou Zhun and Liu E, and Zhao Zhen was stamped with a jade seal.

An edict deposing the Criminal Division came into effect.

After Guo Huai read out the edict of the dismissal of the Criminal Division, the officials cheered selflessly as if they had won a battle.

Liu E had a gloomy face amid the cheers of the officials, and left the vertical arch hall with Zhao Zhen.

No matter how powerful Liu E is, there is no way to deal with the officials.

The hundreds of officials played in unison to ask for the dismissal of the Criminal Division, even if she defended the Criminal Division, it was useless.

The moment Kou Zhun spoke, the dismissal of the Criminal Division was already a foregone conclusion.

No matter how hard she struggles, it will only make the officials think that she has ulterior motives, and the officials will have another handle to impeach her.

Therefore, at the moment when Kou Zhun spoke, Liu E reluctantly agreed to depose the Criminal Division.

Liu E left, and Ding Wei, Cao Yu, and Lu Yijian also left.

After today's court meeting, they realized a truth.

Let your power be monstrous, and under the trend of the times, you will also be overthrown by the devastating and decaying.

So what is the general trend?

The meaning of public opinion and the majority of officials in the court is the general trend.

After Ding Wei and the others left the Vertical Arch Palace, Li Di excused Wang Zeng and pulled him to celebrate with him, and quietly came to Kou Zhun's side.

When Kou Zhun was leisurely tapping on the handrail of Kou Zhun's bus with his bent fingers, he appeared behind Kou Zhun and said faintly: "Brother Kou, did you plan this matter, or did that stinky boy in your family plan it?" ”

Kou Zhun was stunned, pretending to be stupid and said, "What's the matter?" ”

Li Di lowered his face, gritted his teeth and said, "Dismiss the matter of the Criminal Division." ”

Kou Zhun made a look of sudden realization, and said seriously: "Isn't this what the officials mean?" ”

Li Di snorted: "I'm not blind in my eyes......"

In other words, from the rumors of the six-star hanging upside down, to the request for the dismissal of the six departments, and then to the dismissal of the criminal division, there are obviously people behind the manipulation.

If no one manipulates it, it is absolutely impossible to bring down the Criminal Division.

There are a number of yamen at all levels of the imperial court.

Since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, yamen at all levels have been increasing, but they have rarely been reduced.

Like the six departments, there are more and more yamen who only receive money and do not do things in the imperial court.

The people in power in the court could naturally see this drawback, but they did not touch these idle yamen.

It's not that they don't want to move, but because the relationship between the DPRK and China is intertwined, as long as one idle yamen is moved, the other idle yamen will feel the crisis and will unite to put pressure on the imperial court.

The idle yamen has nothing to do on weekdays, so it is not obvious that the mountains are not leaky.

But once they are united, it is a huge force, and if they put pressure on the court and make a stumbling block for the court, the court will not be able to bear it.

It is precisely because of this that the successive rulers have not touched these idle yamen, unless there is an idle yamen that is rotten and has reached the point where everyone is disgusted, the court will do it.

This shows how difficult it is to depose the idle yamen in the imperial court.

And this time, it was not the idle yamen in the court who was deposed, but also the real power yamen in the court.

Then the difficulty is even greater.

If no one is behind it, it will never be possible.

Kou Zhun glanced at Li Di in questioning eyes, and said faintly: "Is this the place to talk?" ”

Li Di was stunned for a moment and came back to his senses.

There are many people in the vertical arch hall, and it is inconvenient to speak.

The slightest mistake will be heard, and then it will soon reach Liu E's ears.

"Go to Koufu and say ......"

Li Di stomped his foot and stepped forward to push Kou Zhun's Kou bus.

He had roughly guessed who was behind the manipulation.

is obviously not Kou Zhun, with Kou Zhun's temperament, if he planned this matter, he would definitely tell him bluntly, instead of thinking about it now, he didn't want to say anything.

Kou Zhun let Li Di push him out of the vertical arch hall.

As soon as they arrived at the door of the vertical arch hall, Wang Zeng, Wang Shu, and Cao Wei greeted them.

Wang Zeng arched his hand to Kou Zhun and said with emotion: "Brother Kou's finger is really amazing. ”

Wang Zeng looked at Wang Shu and said with a smile: "If it weren't for Wang Shu's performance to ask for the dismissal of the Criminal Division, I am afraid I would not have seen the deep meaning of the middle of the six parts." ”

Wang Shu heard Wang Zeng's praise and smiled dryly, but did not speak.

He had listened to the praise of the officials just now, and now his face was still a little red, so he naturally would not answer Wang Zeng.

Although it was he who opened the matter of asking for the dismissal of the Criminal Division, it was Kou Ji who really planned this matter behind it.

If the officials want to praise, they should praise Koji, not him.

As Kou Ji's uncle, he took advantage of Kou Ji and felt a little embarrassed.

He didn't speak, but Cao Wei did, only to hear Cao Wei say with a smile: "I don't know where Kou Ji is?" He wrote to ask for the dismissal of the six ministries, and now the six ministries have not been deposed, but the criminal department has been deposed, I don't know how he will feel after knowing about this matter? ”

When Wang Zeng heard this, he patted his head and shouted, "Yes, yes, I almost forgot about Kou boy." The Criminal Division can be deposed, and he also has a great contribution. If he hadn't written to ask for the resignation of the six parts and lit this fire, I am afraid that this fire would never have burned. ”

Kou Zhun glanced at Cao Wei and said with a deep gaze: "What can he feel about a little guy who has just entered the officialdom." He just helped the old man run errands and talk. ”

Cao Wei was stunned when he heard this.

He understood the meaning of Kou Zhun's words.

Kou Zhun was afraid that the matter of Kou Ji's plot to raise the criminal division behind his back would spread and be remembered.

Kou Ji is only sixteen this year, and he is already in the fifth grade.

This has been criticized by many officials in the court.

If the officials knew that it was also planned by Kou Ji to depose the Criminal Division, it would be easy for them to isolate Kou Ji, beware of Kou Ji, and even join forces to deal with Kou Ji.

The court is such a place.

There can be smart people, people who are a little smarter than everyone, or people who are much smarter than everyone, and all officials can accept it.

But the people who are too much smarter than the officials, and who still play the games of the officials, are unacceptable to the officials.

Cao Wei understood what Kou Zhun meant, and nodded slowly: "Kou Gong is reasonable, he is a little guy who has just entered the officialdom, and he can only help Kou Gong run errands and talk." ”

Seeing that Cao Wei understood the meaning of his words, Kou Zhun opened his mouth to help maintain Kou Ji together, and he nodded with satisfaction.

Li Di saw that Wang Zeng and Cao Wei still had the intention of continuing to talk, and said urgently: "This is not the place to talk, if you have anything to say, let's go to Brother Kou's mansion to talk." ”

Wang Zeng and Cao Wei nodded.

The group left the palace in a group and went straight to the Koufu.

Arrived at Kofu.

As soon as he entered the mansion, Li Di immediately handed over Kou Zhun to the servants of Kou Mansion, shouting, "Where is Kou boy? Let him come out to the old man, and the old man has something to say to him. ”

Cao Wei stood aside and smiled silently, Wang Shu's expression was a little complicated.

Only Wang Zeng was at a loss.

Wang Zeng was stunned and said, "When we go to Kou Mansion, don't we want to talk to Brother Kou?" What are you looking for Kou Boy? ”

Li Di turned around and glanced at Wang Zeng, ignored him, and continued to shout: "Tell Kou boy to come out." ”

Kou Zhong was by their side after they entered the mansion.

Hearing that Li Di had to see Kou Ji, he said dryly: "Li Xiang, my little young master is sick. ”

Li Di glared and shouted, "The old man knows that he is sick, and he also knows that he is pretending to be sick." You go in quickly and call the old man out. If he can't appear in front of the old man within a stick of incense, the old man will invite him personally. ”

When Kou Zhun heard this, he shook his head with a smile and said to Kou Zhong, "Go and call Ji'er out." ”

Kou Zhong stood in place, didn't move, and sighed: "The little young master is really sick. ”

Kou Zhun was stunned for a moment, and said in amazement: "Really sick?" ”

Kou Zhong nodded heavily, indicating that he was not lying.

Kou Zhun frowned, and said in a deep voice: "What disease?" Has the doctor in the house seen it? ”

Kou Zhong nodded and said, "The doctor in the house has seen it, and said that the wind and cold have entered the body, and he needs to take medicine and rest in bed." ”

When Kou Zhun heard this, his old face sank, glanced at Kou Zhong, and blamed: "Ji'er's food, clothing, housing and transportation have always been responsible for you. Why didn't you take good care of him and let him catch the wind cold. ”

Kou Zhong said with a bitter face: "When the little young master is in the mansion on weekdays, he rarely allows us servants to enter the Four Monarchs Garden to serve. Except for serving tea and pouring water, he didn't let us care about the rest of the things at all.

He also liked to move a bed and lie in the garden.

In recent days, the weather is cold, and it is natural to be susceptible to wind cold. ”

Kou Zhun glared at Kou Zhong, turned around and arched his hand to Li Di, Wang Zeng and others, and said, "Ji Er occasionally feels cold, and it is inconvenient to see guests recently, and the old man wants to take care of him, so he won't entertain you." ”

Li Di heard the words of Kou Zhun's master and servant, he stared at Kou Zhun suspiciously, and asked, "Are you really sick?" ”

Kou Zhun said unhappily: "When did the old man joke about such a thing?" ”

When Li Di heard this, his face changed, he bowed, and said in a deep voice: "Then it's really not the right time for us to come." Brother Kou, take care of Kou Boy, and we'll come back to see Kou Boy in a few days. ”

Cao Wei bowed and said the same thing.

Wang Shu was not an outsider and was not in a hurry to leave, so he didn't speak.

Wang Zeng stood in place with a blank face, for some reason, and was finally dragged out of Kou Mansion by Li Di.

It wasn't until he reached the gate of Koufu that he shook off Li Di's hand and asked, "What is the situation?" When we went to Koufu, didn't we want to talk to Brother Kou? Why do you want to find Kou boy as soon as you enter the mansion? ”

Li Di glared at Wang Zeng, flicked his sleeves, and pouted, "You still don't understand?" ”

Wang Zeng was stunned in place, stunned for a long time, before he came back to his senses, his eyes widened in astonishment, and he exclaimed: "Are you saying that the real promoter of the plot to put up the criminal department is ......?"

Li Di glared at him again and reminded: "Be cautious ......"

Wang Zeng hurriedly closed his mouth and swallowed the rest of the words into his stomach.

He looked at Cao Wei, who was about to leave, and exclaimed, "No wonder you said those words at the door of the Vertical Arch Palace. You already knew it was him? ”

Cao Wei didn't hide it and nodded.

Wang Zeng said in disbelief: "This is too ......"

Li Di didn't wait for him to finish speaking, he grabbed the conversation and said, "It's too unbelievable, isn't it?" ”

Li Di sighed and said, "When I first learned about this, I also felt a little unbelievable. So I thought of Kou Mansion and asked Kou Boy face to face, but I didn't expect Kou Boy to be sick. ”

Cao Wei said seriously on the side: "Speaking of which, we all owe him a favor." He was the biggest promoter behind the dismissal of the Criminal Division, but in the end it was the three of us who benefited. ”

Li Di groaned: "You are right, it is the three of us who really benefit. I owe Kou Boy a favor. In the future, if he wants something to ask me, as long as it does not violate my principles, I will help him. ”

Hearing this, Cao Wei nodded.

Only Wang Zeng said with a bitter face: "I am the one who has benefited the most...... According to you, should I make a straw ring and make a promise? ”

When Li Di heard this, he said with disgust: "Just your old bones, you are still a man......"

After a pause, Li Di looked at Wang Zeng and continued to say with disgust: "Tell me about you, you don't even have a granddaughter, otherwise you can take the opportunity to get married and make Kou Xiaozi your grandson-in-law." ”

Wang Zeng said with a dark face: "You have a granddaughter, but unfortunately you have already promised someone." ”

Cao Wei said on the side: "I have two nieces, one is three years younger than Kou Xiaozi, and the other is eight years younger than Kou Xiaozi. ”

When Li Di and Wang Zeng heard this, they looked disdainful, and said in unison: "When will you pick up the skin of Wuxun, when will you say this again." ”

When Cao Wei heard this, he sighed and said no more.

The three of them bowed their hands to each other and went home.

Inside the Koufu.

Kou Zhun asked Kou Zhong to push him to the Four Monarchs Garden.

When he entered the bedroom, Kou Zhun saw Kou Ji lying on the bed.

Kou Ji's face was a little pale, even though he was wrapped in two quilts, his face did not warm red.

Looking at Kou Ji's white face and tightly knit brows, Kou Zhun felt a pain in his heart for no reason.

Although Kou Ji is not his own grandson, after half a year of getting along, Kou Zhun has long regarded him as his own grandson.

He didn't feel anything until he fell ill.

After Kou Ji fell ill, his heart suddenly felt a little sour.

He thought about it carefully, Kou Ji had been running around for Kou Mansion and for him since he entered Bianjing City.

This rush is more than half a year.

And for most of the past six months, Kou Ji has been doing things for him, but he hasn't done anything for Kou Ji.

Sending Yuyu and Dumb Tiger to protect Kou Ji was nothing to him.

"Push the old man to the bed......"

Kou Zhun commanded in a deep voice.

Kou Zhong pushed Kou Zhun to Kou Ji's bed.

Kou Zhun stretched out his old hand and grabbed Kou Ji's hand that was leaking outside the quilt.

"You're a good boy...... From the time you entered Beijing to the present, the old man really hasn't looked at you carefully. When you fall ill, the old man will have time to look at you. It's the old man's grandfather's fault......"

Kou Zhun whispered.

At this moment, a maid entered Kou Ji's bedroom with a copper basin filled with water.

After seeing Kou Zhun, he hurriedly put down the copper basin to give gifts.

Kou Zhun heard the maid's voice, looked back, and saw the copper basin in the maid's hand, and the sweat towel on the copper basin.

"Bring it ......"

Kou Zhun beckoned to the maid.

The maid hurriedly brought the copper basin to Kou Zhun.

"You go down first......"
