Cui Mao saw that Cui Yan was scheming, so he reminded the emperor: "Your Majesty, don't listen to him, our Pi country is full of talents, without him Cui Yan, can't it work, as long as the court affairs are taken care of by Ji Lao, the Pi Kingdom will naturally fight steadily, and if there is nothing, the Pi Kingdom will perish, joke!" ”

"He managed the court of Pi State in a muddy way, everyone was afraid of him, and he was delusional to covet the throne, Emperor, have you forgotten the days when you were sitting on pins and needles? And with this person's ambition, if we hadn't taken advantage of his unpreparedness, he would have used the military talisman to rebel. ”

When Cui Yan heard Cui Mao's words, he had to secretly surprise Cui Mao that he did have the talent to govern the country, and he actually knew that he was underestimating him when he invited Ji Lao out of the mountain.

Cui Yan sighed secretly in his heart, sure enough, the enemy you can see is not terrible, the terrible thing is the enemy who hides by your side and knows you very well, that is the most terrifying.

Because you will ignore him and trust him because he understands you.

It's not true that the emperor can't give up Cui Yan, he can even give up his uncle, not to mention him, it's just ...... Ji Lao's body...... How many more years can it last?

"Your Majesty." Cui Mao saw that the emperor was really swayed a little by Cui Yan's bluffing, so he shouted anxiously.

The emperor looked at Cui Mao, too, Cui Yan is ambitious, if he really settles down to be a courtier, will he get rid of him?

He is more hateful than Uncle Situ.

"Don't worry, Manager Cui, I'm not so easy to bluff, put him in the prison, wait for his fate." The emperor originally wanted to come to the Prime Minister's Mansion to see how Cui Yan cried bitterly and begged him to spare his life, but this guy was still dying like this, and he wanted to scare him when he was dying, which was really damned.

This is his world, how can he be so arrogant, covetous, and swaying him?

"Put all the Cui Mansion in prison!" Cui Mao waved his hand, and the Praetorian Guards rushed to the Xiangfu and others.

Cui Yan didn't resist, and said lightly when he put on the shackles: "Your Majesty, do you think that if you get rid of me, you can sit back and relax?" Don't forget what you have done, there is a saying that it is not that the time has not yet come, Your Majesty, I am waiting for the day when you will suffer retribution. ”

The emperor sneered, "Don't worry, I won't have retribution." ”

"You're going to attack General Wei?" Cui Yan asked in surprise.

"Take it down." The emperor didn't want to say anything more to Cui Yan.

Cui Yan was arrested, the Prime Minister's Mansion was copied, the people were watching the excitement, and the crowd was humane: "I really can't imagine that the emperor is so quick this time, and Cui Xiang was arrested in just a few days, it seems that even the emperor can't tolerate the evil things that Cui Xiang has done." ”

Another humane: "This Cui Xiang has done things so desperately, the emperor is pretending to be stupid and deaf, I'm afraid I can't see it, General Wei has just recovered the southern border, and he hasn't even received the official title, this Cui Xiang killed General Wei's father-in-law, and forced his mother to death, I heard that the soldiers over there in the south are angry, and they jointly signed a ~ book asking the emperor to uphold justice, and do you know?" Cui Xiang sent 50,000 troops to suppress the southern border, but was beaten by 10,000 people in the south and fled, if the emperor does not deal with it impartially, the southern border is afraid that it will be chaotic, it has reached this point, can the emperor not deal with Cui Xiang? ”

"That is, if it weren't for those border guards who fought bravely to kill the enemy, how could we get the peace of our people, people like Cui Xiang, in addition to currying favor with the emperor and playing with power, how can they compare to General Wei's hard work in guarding the border, the emperor did too right this time, and he can't let a court minister chill the hearts of the border soldiers."

"But no, if the border is chaotic, then the whole world will be chaotic, and it is not us ordinary people who are so bitter."

In the hearts of the people, the soldiers guarding the border are much more important than the ministers of the court, they stay in the capital, take the high Fenglu of the court, stumble on the court, write a few words, and go down to the court, discussing where to drink, when have you dealt with national affairs?

What day is not eating, drinking, singing, dancing, and living a prosperous and prosperous life with worry-free clothes?

The weakness of the Pi State is all due to the corruption of these court ministers.

When the emperor came out, all the onlookers knelt on the ground and shouted long live the emperor, the emperor is wise and so on.

For the first time, when the emperor saw the people supporting him so much, his vanity was greatly satisfied, and he said very close to the people: "Everyone, hurry up!" I am also removing the cancer for the country, and I am ashamed of you. ”

As soon as Cui Yan was escorted out, he didn't know who threw a rotten egg, and when he saw that someone took the lead in throwing rotten eggs, others followed suit, and if there was anything to throw, he picked up the stones on the ground and threw them at Cui Yan.

In order to humiliate Cui Yan, Cui Mao deliberately let the Praetorian Guards escort him slowly, so that the people in the capital could throw rotten rotten eggs at Cui Xiang, who was always high.

When Cui Yan was escorted into the prison, there was no clean place on his body, his face was red and purple, accompanied by blood flowing, and when he passed by a cell, a female voice suddenly came: "Father." ”

Cui Yan saw that it was Concubine Zhao, "The emperor actually sent you to prison?" ”

"Yes, father, after my daughter was sent by the emperor this morning, my daughter didn't know what happened, father, what the hell is going on?" Concubine Zhao still hasn't figured out why the emperor is so cruel to her Cui family, and even the concubine who gave birth to a prince for the emperor will not let go.

"Zhao'er, if you had come to report earlier, maybe it wouldn't have been like this." Cui Yan shook his head and said, complaining a little that Concubine Zhao sent the letter too late.

If he had known in advance that Cui Mao was hiding in the palace, he would not have easily handed over the talisman to Mo County.

"Father, as soon as Xiao Zi and I remembered that the person was Cui Mao, we tried to find a way to report to our father as soon as possible, father, you are really, with an army of 500,000, you can't even catch a housekeeper, and also, you are too arrogant and domineering in front of the emperor on weekdays, can the emperor not hold a grudge against you? How many times has my daughter advised you not to make too much trouble in front of the emperor, but you didn't listen to me, and even wanted to send Cao'er into the palace to replace me. ”398

Concubine Zhao hated her father for being selfish, thinking about herself in everything, coveting things that should not be coveted, how could the emperor tolerate him, when her father was brilliant, she was just a chess piece in her father's hands to fight for power and position, and now she is defeated, but she has become a victim of being buried.

To this day, her father still complains that she is late in delivering the letter.

If he hadn't consulted her about anything, would the Cui family have come to such a point?

Cui Xi, what is Cui Xi? With her brutal and willful temperament, there are no bones left that were calculated by the people in the palace within a few days of entering the palace.

Father can obviously trust her, if their father and daughter trust each other more and take care of each other more, will it take her ten years to climb to the position of concubine?

Even so, her father still thought she was not angry, but he never asked himself how much help he gave her? She is just a beautiful woman given to the emperor by her father, and this is the end of not being loved by her father.

How to do it and how to do it wrong.

Cui Yan was choked and couldn't say half a word, and suddenly, he saw a person curled up in a corner of the prison, and that person looked very much like Cui Xi, no, she was Cui Xi.

"Xiao'er? What's wrong with you? Cui Yan grabbed the cell door and asked loudly.

"She's passed out, father, do you really think the emperor likes Xi'er? If he really likes it, he won't give Yu'er to the Praetorian Guards to spoil it, this is the hope you see, you really don't understand the emperor at all. Cui Zhao was full of sadness that she was born in the Cui family, if she was born in an ordinary people's family, the end would not be so miserable.

"Livestock!" In addition to scolding these two words, Cui Yan can no longer describe the emperor's ruthlessness.

It's all to blame him, he wasn't ruthless enough, he shouldn't have worried too much in the first place, he just reversed, at least he wouldn't let his family end up like this, or blame him for not being ruthless enough.

It's too late to say anything.

"Let's go!" The Praetorian Guard in charge of escorting pushed Cui Yan hard.

Cui Yan almost fell down, and when he was standing, he said to the Praetorian Guard who pushed him: "I remember you." ”

The Praetorian Guard sneered, "Are you still the prime minister above ten thousand? Others are afraid of you? ”

"I'm going to scare you." said that it was too late, Cui Yan reflexively pulled out another person's knife, and stabbed the Praetorian Guard who insulted him with one sword, and asked, "Do you know that you are afraid now?" You also have a degree of shrimp play when you swim in dragon diving, otherwise this is the end. ”

The other Praetorian Guard's face turned white with fright, and he pointed at Cui Yan, "You...... You...... How dare you kill? ”

"Why don't I dare kill? Anyway, I'm going to die, and if I can grab a cushion back, I can naturally catch a cushion back, what? You want to kill me? Then you will kill, I will straighten my head and kill you, do you dare? Cui Yan sneered and offered the knife in his hand to the guard.

How dare the guards kill Cui Yan, no one dares to take his life easily without a holy decree from the emperor.

"Don't dare, don't dare, just be a good person, I'm in a bad mood, I still have the ability to kill you Luo Xiao." Cui Yan threw away the knife and walked to the innermost cell by himself.

When Du Wenyun heard the news, he hurriedly returned home and told Wei Lin, "Brother Wei, do you know? Cui Yan was sent to prison by the emperor. ”

"Really?" Wei Lin asked.

"You're not stupid?" Du Wenyun exclaimed.

"No, I pretended to be stupid just to promise the emperor to cooperate with him, but I didn't expect the emperor to arrest Cui Yan so quickly." Wei Lin said with a frown.

"This is a play between you and the emperor? Brother Wei, why didn't you tell me earlier? I've been scared for so long, and you're too uninteresting. Du Wenyun said strangely.

"Brother Du." Wei Lin suppressed his voice and said to him: "You'd better not know that I'm not stupid, my brother may have a difficult time, and I don't want to implicate you." ”

"Why? Wasn't Cui Yan arrested by the emperor? How can you still have difficulties? "Du Wenyun doesn't know what Wei Lin is talking about?

"Listen to me, my brother will never harm you." Wei Lin said very solemnly.

Seeing him like this, Du Wenyun had no choice but to nod and say, "Well, I'll just treat you as stupid." ”

"That's right." Wei Lin said reassuringly.

In the palace, Cui Mao sent a secret order to Chen Ziqi, ordering him to bring Mrs. Wei back to Beijing.

With Mrs. Wei in hand, no matter how high Wei Lin's martial arts are, he can only be captured obediently.
