"Guo Xun died unjustly...", Yan Shifan picked a candied fruit and threw it into his mouth, but he didn't seem to care much about this matter, "When he was a prince of the court, he died in prison so inexplicably, alas..."

"Wronged? I don't think I'm wronged at all...", Yan Song lowered his eyelids and glanced at Yan Shifan with his spare eyes, "He and Xia Yan have fought to that point, and they will definitely have to decide the winner in the end." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Guo Xun is not as smart as Xia Yan, and he deserves to die..."

"I don't mean this...", Yan Shifan hiccuped and leaned back in his chair, "I mean Guo Xun died unexplained, and in the end, he didn't even find out the reason, he was so beautiful in his life, but he couldn't stand the desolation after death..."

"Oh... You said this...", maybe he was a little lazy after the meal, Yan Song still didn't open his eyes, "That's not desolate, just because he died in prison, the emperor has ordered all the relevant officials involved in the case to be demoted by one level, can this still be considered desolate?" So many officials gave him a "burial" ...

"That's useless, my life is gone, everything is in vain...", Yan Shifan rubbed his stomach and sighed lightly, "In the end, I didn't find out a result, I still don't believe it, if no one does anything, he Guo Xun will die inside?" ”

"Huh?" , Yan Song opened his eyes and frowned, "Don't talk nonsense about this kind of thing, what is the result of the final investigation by the Criminal Department, it is what the result is, the emperor didn't say anything, how can you talk too much here?" ”

"It's not... Dad...", Yan Shifan couldn't help but smile helplessly when he saw Yan Song's serious appearance, "Now this is at home, just our grandfather and son are here, don't you be so evasive, do you just say that you believe in the result of the final investigation and punishment of the Criminal Department?" What "the old disease recurred, I was ill in prison, and I couldn't be treated in time...", anyway, I don't believe it..."

"To be honest, I don't believe it either, hehe...", Yan Song waved his hand at the two maids in the room, and they retreated in amusement, "I think there is another hidden meaning in this matter... Or maybe it's not just me, you and I can think of it, many ministers in the DPRK and China can think of it, but... I just hide it in my heart, and I don't want to say it..."

"Dad, what do you think there will be in this matter?" , Yan Shifan straightened up, but came to his senses, "You said that so many frail and sickly Wenchen were locked up in prison, and nothing happened in the end, Guo Xun is a military general, how could he die in it?" I think it's weird if you say there's no secret! ”

"If you want to know the reason for something, you have to think about who is most beneficial after the incident...", Yan Song sat there leisurely, and said slowly, "There are many people who want Guo Xun to die, but there are not many people who want Guo Xun to die the most and have the ability to let Guo Xun die, do you think who among these people will be?" ”

"If you want to say that Guo Xun fell this time, it is indeed that many ministers have contributed, they must be afraid that Guo Xun will counterattack, but... To say that he still has the ability to let Guo Xun die in prison...", Yan Shifan frowned, as if he was trying to think about this matter, "Peng Yue, Lu Bing, Xia Yan..."

"Peng Yue has the mind but doesn't have the guts, Lu Bing has a chance, it's not necessary..."

"Then you mean Xia Yan!" , Yan Shifan looked at Yan Song in a daze, and suddenly nodded, "That's the case, Guo Xun will not die for a day, Xia Yan will not be able to sleep well for a day, and after Xia Yan returns to the dynasty... Yes, it seems that Daddy's thoughts are similar to that of children..."

"I'm about the same as you? Hehe... actually put gold on his face...", Yan Song laughed and teased, but his heart was very comfortable. In fact, seeing that his son is getting smarter and smarter, and more and more means, Yan Song is happy in his heart. He is getting older and older, and Yan Shifan is his only son, he needs Yan Shifan to help him, "But it's good to know this kind of thing in my heart, don't mention it again, whatever the result set by the Criminal Department is, everyone knows it, so it's even better..."

"Alas... In this way, we can be regarded as having made a mistake in our calculations...", Yan Shifan looked at Yan Song with some dejection, "Dad, when we planned for Guo Xun and Xia Yan to fight, none of us helped, did not show a clear position, and finally reaped the benefits. Can... But now that the fight is over, Guo Xun is dead, but Xia Yan is unscathed, and without Guo Xun's suppression, the power is even greater than before, how can this be good? ”

"You're only half right in what you said...", Yan Song sighed unhurriedly, "Guo Xun is dead, but Xia Yan may not be unscathed." Guo Xun died in prison, you and I will have doubts, the emperor is so smart, how can he not be suspicious? Once the emperor has a mustard in his heart, then Xia Yan's life will become more and more difficult..."

"If you want to say that Xia Yan is also a smart person, sometimes he is inevitably confused... If it sounds good, it is called stubborn, and if it is ugly, it is stupid! Yan Song's eyes paused, and then he stretched out again, "To say that Xia Yan has been the head of the cabinet for so many years, although in most cases he still wins the emperor's heart, but he has also made the emperor unhappy many times, remember the last time the emperor went to Chengtian to sacrifice, Xia Yan prevented hundreds of officials from paying tribute to Cheng He, right?" That time, the emperor lost his temper. And so many little things, and so on... In short, Xia Yan did a lot of things that made the emperor unhappy..."

"But Xia Yan's position as the first assistant is very firm, much more solid than the previous first assistants, and even Zhang Fujing back then can't be compared with the current Xia Yan...", Yan Shifan said worriedly on the side, "Now that Guo Xun is also dead, the only person who can check and balance Xia Yan is gone, I see... The situation will be even less optimistic in the future..."

"Yes, it's not optimistic, but Xia Yan's situation is not optimistic...", looking at Yan Shifan's somewhat puzzled eyes, Yan Song sat there and said with a smile, "When a person is the most proud, it is often the most dangerous time for him, now Xia Yan seems to be beautiful, but in fact he is already in danger..."

"Huh?" , Yan Shifan's eyes were stunned, "Dad, what do you mean by this?" ”

"The crux of the problem now lies in Xia Yan's constantly arrogant heart... Yes, Xia Yan now has no opponent in the court, but it is precisely because of this that Xia Yan will continue to make mistakes and constantly provoke the emperor...", Yan Song looked at Yan Shifan and pointed at the table with his fingers, "Let's just say that the last time in the court, Xia Yan left angrily because the emperor was late for no reason, that is the manifestation of Xia Yan's arrogance." If it was placed in the past, when Xia Yan's power was not so big, he Xia Yan would not dare to do such a move no matter what! Although this matter was helped by Peng Yue, as long as Xia Yan's heart does not change, then he Xia Yan will continue to make this kind of mistake in the future! ”

"Yes, Daddy said it well!" , Yan Shifan nodded heavily, "Just like Zhang Fujing back then, before he became the first assistant of the cabinet, he rarely disobeyed the emperor's wishes, but after he gained power, he made mistakes one after another..."

"Not only that, but there is a more important point...", Yan Song breathed a long sigh of relief, "In fact, in the final analysis, the most important thing is the emperor's thoughts, now Xia Yan has great power in the court, and the scenery is infinite, and the most worried and uneasy thing is not us, but the emperor, he will not allow a courtier to have such power, and this courtier will sometimes go against him and do it against him, so the emperor will also find a way to suppress his power, or support another person's power, so that the emperor will feel at ease." Just like Zhang Fujing back then, it was only a while since he gained power, and Xia Yan, a five-grade little official, came to contradict him, why can this be so, to put it bluntly, the emperor is still supporting him in the back! ”

"So dad means... Seize this opportunity and let the emperor support you to become the force that fights against Xia Yan? Yan Shifan said excitedly on the side.

"This kind of thing can't be said so absolutely, it's not that if you want the emperor to support you, the emperor will support you, the key depends on how you do it...", Yan Song sighed, leaned back in the chair, and said slowly, "Actually, I don't want to toss so much, Xia Yan's current power is indeed big, what if it fails?" What if the emperor changes his mind halfway? Then I will fall into a place of no return, because I can only be regarded as a chess piece in the hands of the emperor, and if I fail, I will be a waste chess piece, and I will be useless..."

"That...", Yan Shifan lowered his head, and his eyes became hesitant, "Dad, otherwise we won't take this risk, after all, Xia Yan's power is too big now, besides... Besides, now our family's power can be regarded as okay! ”

"Alas... Fan'er, if you don't want to advance, you will retreat, you always have this kind of thought, so why should the people who are attached to you stay with you? Slowly, the people will disperse, and you will have no power to speak of...", Yan Song stroked his calloused hands, which were the traces left by his own cultivation when he was young, "Dad has no way out now, I also want to seek peace for a while by currying favor with Xia Yan, but... But obviously Xia Yan's old man didn't give me this opportunity, I came to the door twice, but he refused to see the guest, just because I didn't contribute to the impeachment of Guo Xun. Now that they are going to share in the fruits of victory, naturally they will not leave me another piece of the pie, I am afraid that if we do not take action, what is now in our hands will be snatched away by others sooner or later..."

"That's... Dad, do you have any good ideas now? Yan Shifan listened to Yan Song's analysis and asked tentatively on the side.
