"I see that the person playing the flute next to you is also playing very well, I wonder if you can lift the hood and let us see the real face?"
As soon as Fu Hong's words fell, everyone's eyes on the scene were focused on him alone, the atmosphere was quiet, and the scene was mostly palace magnates and royal nobles, so there were many people who understood music, and naturally appreciated this person's flute sound.
Under everyone's gaze, the man in black slowly lifted his hood, and when his true face was revealed in front of everyone, the scene sounded one after another gasping cold air.
"This ...... Isn't this Lord Xu?! β
"It's true, but isn't he suspended at home, how can he still appear here?"
"The emperor shouldn't have invited him......
Confused, puzzled, surprised, looking at jokes, the expressions on everyone's faces were very exciting, in the midst of the discussions, Xu Lin's face was not good, a touch of embarrassment flashed on his face, and he was still a little embarrassed.
Although he was demoted to a third-order official rank that day and suspended at home, Xu Lin didn't say a word, although many people said that he was hard-mouthed and refused to give in, but Xu Lin felt that he had done the right thing, at least retaining his dignity.
But now, the only dignity he has left in front of the emperor has been trampled on by this appearance.
Fu Hong's face was gloomy, he was very smart, and he knew what was going on as soon as he connected the matter before and after, his eyes were cold, and he glanced at Zhou Guifei and Fu Miaofu, the latter bowed his head weakly and didn't say anything.
Fu Hongyou turned his gaze back to Xu Lin, and there was anger in his deep voice: "I don't remember that there are officials who are suspended at home in the banquet list, Xu Lin, what do you want to do today?" β
Fu Hong is the Son of Heaven in the end, Xu Lin is scared, and when he was asked like this, Xu Lin immediately knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "The emperor forgives the sin, there is a reason why the minister did this, please listen to the minister." β
Xu Lin's forehead was pressed against the cold ground, his whole body was trembling, cold sweat ran down his cheeks, and the whole person was like washing.
Fu Hong looked at him condescendingly, not knowing what he was thinking, his face was gloomy for a while before he said in a deep voice: "Say it." β
Hearing this, Zhou Guifei and Fu Miaofu were relieved, they won the bet, although Fu Hong is not a good husband and father, but he is a competent emperor, he is good at using sages, cherishing talents, and treating his ministers very well, it is a bet with Zhou Qian, he will definitely give Xu Lin a chance, and they only need one chance is enough!
The chopping knife hanging in Xu Lin's heart did not fall, he exhaled a long breath, slowly calmed down, sorted out his thoughts, looked up at Fu Hong, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, the minister came today to report an important matter. β
Xu Lin glanced at Si Nan on the seat, his eyes were slightly gloomy, and his voice raised a few points, "The minister found that someone in the palace used the medicinal materials of the Tai Hospital to refine medicinal materials without authorization, and traded with people from the outside world privately!" β
Wow!
As soon as Xu Lin blurted out, there was an uproar at the scene, and the sighs and discussions became louder and louder, you must know that the medicinal materials in the Tai Hospital are the best in the entire Daliang, and they are exclusively for the use of the royal family, and those who secretly steal the royal medicinal materials to refine the medicine and trade them privately are undoubtedly disrespectful to the royal family and a big crime to kill the head!
"If you can use the medicinal materials of the Tai Hospital, and you can also refine medicines, you must be from the Tai Hospital, right?"
"I don't know who is so bold, do you still remember, a few years ago, the doctor who used the Tai Hospital without authorization, tsk, just because he took a small medicinal herb to his family to refine medicine, and was finally discovered, the end was really miserable."
"But hasn't there been an accident since then, who would dare to be so bold as to learn from the past."
"I think it's a newcomer...... However, during this time, the hospital did not recruit newcomers? β
Everyone, you said a word, reasoning about the matter, Feng Yuan looked at this scene with interest, and said in a lazy voice: "The show has begun, when will you play?" β
He's still waiting to see the peacock open the screen.
Sinan raised his head, and when he met Xu Lin's eyes full of murderous intent and resentment, he only glanced at it faintly, his voice was as calm as the surface of the water, and he said lightly: "I'm afraid that if you don't need me to play, the play will be over." β
"What do you mean?"
"Let's look down."
Si Nan glanced at Fu Hong in the seat, the latter had a solemn expression, his face was not good, everyone thought that he was angry because someone had stolen the medicinal materials of the Tai Hospital without authorization, but only Sinan knew that Fu Hong was angry for another reason.
The corners of her lips hooked slightly, and her smile was cold: "It must be very painful to lift a stone and hit yourself in the foot." β
On the stage, after the noise, Fu Hong waved his hand slightly and said loudly: "It's all quiet." β
He looked at Xu Lin and said in a deep voice: "There is no basis for what you say, do you have evidence?" β
"Naturally, there is." Xu Lin looked confident, "Lord Guan Shan, the head of the Tai Hospital, is one of the witnesses of the minister. β
After speaking, he raised his eyes and looked below, and walked up to Guan Shan, who was dressed in the official mansion, bowed his hand, and said respectfully: "Chen Guanshan has seen the emperor." β
Fu Hong looked at him deeply and said, "Say, what do you know?" β
Guan Shan paused, and tried his best to keep his voice steady: "Back to the emperor, the minister recently found that the medicinal materials in the Tai Hospital's medicinal material warehouse always disappear for no reason, although there are not many, but they are all precious and have a long growth cycle, and they are difficult to see outside. β
There was a lot of discussion at the scene, you must know that Guan Shan is the head of the hospital, and even he came forward, which shows that the nature of his matter is far from being as simple as it seems.
Fu Hong looked at him for a while, the naturally sharp and sharp gaze from the superior made Guan Shan sweat coldly, and after a few seconds, Fu Hong slowly spoke: "You continue." β
Guan Shan swallowed his saliva, stabilized his mind, looked at the emperor and said, "The minister sees that the person is - Sinan!" β
"Sinan?!"
Everyone exploded again, and all eyes looked at Sinan, but found that the latter was sitting on the seat with a faint expression, holding the teacup in one hand and taking a sip of tea very indifferently, as if everything had nothing to do with her.
Guan Shan was a little panicked by Sinan's attitude, and in order to prove the accuracy of his words, he continued: "The minister had already gone home that day, but he remembered that something was left in the Tai Hospital, and he came back to get it, and the people in the Tai Hospital were basically gone at that time, and when the minister came back, he saw Si Nan trading with a man in black in the medicine garden, and handed him a bottle of medicine!" β
Speaking of medicines, although it is common in the Tai Hospital, it is for the royal family, because of the scarcity of alchemists, there are even fewer alchemists who can really refine medicines, not to mention the potions made from precious medicinal materials, once this thing is refined, it must be handed over to the royal family, but Sinan takes it to trade with the outside world, which is another layer of sin on the basis of being good at medicinal materials!
Feng Yuan snorted coldly, shook his head and said, "This group of people has a good ability to charge people with crimes, you really don't plan to say anything?" β
"What did I say?" Sinan looked at Guan Shan, his eyes seemed to be looking at the dying person, "The clear ones are self-clearing, and the turbid ones are turbid, let's see who can't collapse first." β
However, unlike Sinan's casual carelessness, everyone looked at her with a little contempt and disdain, and as soon as she became prime minister, she did whatever she wanted, and she was really not afraid of death.
And when Guan Shan's words landed, Fu Hong's face became even more gloomy, and everyone was targeting Sinan, but he looked at Guan Shan again, and said coldly: "I sent Sinan to the Tai Hospital to refine the art of alchemy, which can be regarded as her reward for the rebellion of King Pingzhou and the removal of the realm of nothingness, but it is difficult to convince the public by using the medicine of the Tai Hospital without permission, and having private transactions with people outside the palace." β
The implication is that you are the only one who sees this, and you don't count if you want to be convicted.
The meaning of protection was too obvious, and everyone present saw it in their hearts.
But only Si Nan knew that Fu Hong was protecting him, and he was clearly giving these people a chance......
Zhou Guifei clenched her fists, and the anger in her heart couldn't be calmed for a long time, she still couldn't understand why the emperor was so partial to Sinan, when she went to sue before, she would have forgotten it, after all, there were only two of them in the study, but now? In front of everyone's eyes, how many pairs of eyes are watching, is he still biased towards Sinan?!
Zhou Guifei couldn't bear it anymore, and when she was about to say something, Xu Lin, who had been kneeling on the ground, suddenly spoke, he bowed to Fu Hong, and said: "Your Majesty, the minister also specially arrested the black-clothed man who traded with Sinan that night for this matter, if you add this witness, it should be able to show that Sinan is a sinner who used the medicinal materials of the Tai Hospital without permission and traded privately!" β
"What?!"
Fu Hong was shocked, and his heart was even more horrified, and thousands of thoughts passed through his mind - his illness will not be exposed, right?!
In Xu Lin's eyes, Fu Hong's reaction was interpreted as that the emperor was betrayed by someone he trusted very much, which made him shocked, sad and angry.
He raised his face, looked at Sinan with smugness in his eyes, and his loud voice was particularly clear above the banquet hall, "Prime Minister Sinan doesn't have anything to say?" β
Si Nan looked back at Xu Lin, his black eyes like jewels were infinitely cold, and although his voice was cold, it was full of chilling coldness: "No." β
And the moment he looked at Sinan, Xu Linhu's expression was in a trance, and he only read two words from the other party's gaze - death.
It's really like this, that sharp and cold eyes, as if looking at a dying person, she obviously didn't say anything, but she forced him to break out in a layer of cold sweat.
Why......
Xu Lin secretly swallowed his saliva, and after stabilizing his mind, he snorted coldly, "It seems that the Prime Minister doesn't cry when he sees the coffin, I want to see how long you can last!" β
After speaking, Xu Lin glanced at Fu Hong and said slowly: "Your Majesty, I wonder if the minister can bring that person to the scene?" β
