Chu Ye also looked back at Song Hanfei, his eyes full of frost.

I don't know how she offended this old man, and she showed inexplicable hostility to her at the beginning. She didn't know that the imperial historians of the Western Jin Dynasty were so idle every day!

Chu Ye sneered, not to be outdone, raised his foot, and stepped up the steps.

Song Hanfei gritted his teeth, the tails of his eyes twitched, and his eyes were full of shock and humiliation. It seemed that he couldn't believe that Chu Ye would really compete with him!

But Chu Ye just did that!

Chu Ye just wants to let this group of people know that she is not afraid of anyone! It is even more important to let the one on the dragon chair know that she is not afraid of the powerful, and she is even more determined to investigate this huge imperial examination fraud case!

She Chu Ye is the most suitable and the only person who is suitable for investigating this case among the civil and military forces of this Manchu Dynasty!

Before the rise of Chu Ye, the court was divided into two major factions, the imperial examination scholars headed by Song Hanfei and the high-ranking magnates led by Fang Hongkuang, which had gradually become a situation of competition between the two tigers in the past few years. The emperor is not unaware. But he sat high on the imperial throne, looking down on them, the so-called high-ranking officials and important ministers who were subordinate to the imperial power, maintaining the balance above the court. The two factions, no matter which faction is too badly damaged, will break such a delicate balance,

But at such a time, Song Hanfei took the lead in making trouble, eager to find all the trouble for Chu Ye. This means that the emperor is also going to make a move.

The two tigers competed, the situation gradually declined, and the emperor was bound to support the rookie and firmly hold the power of the court in his hands. And Chu Ye is such a rookie.

Song Hanfei saw it, and Sima Jin also saw it.

Otherwise, Sima Jin is just a prince of the first term, no matter how much the emperor favors him, he will not casually mess around with major affairs of the court and politics.

Chu Ye just happened to catch up. Sending Dongyao was an opportunity given to her by the emperor. No matter what the process was, the final result was obviously satisfactory to the emperor, and Chu Ye also jumped from a four-grade ritual department to a first-grade Shangshu in just half a year. One of the governors of the six divisions of the dynasty!

Chu Ye is a rookie that the emperor wants to support, and he is a cold man who wants to be the enemy of Song Hanfei and Fang Hongkuang, so he naturally became the enemy of the two. This is why Song Hanfei criticized Chu Ye when he was promoted to a second-grade waiter, and Fang Hongkuang, who had always been at odds with him, also spoke for him for the first time.

Chu Ye was sarcastic, and his other foot also followed up the stone steps, and said in a voice that only she and Song Hanfei could hear: "Song Yushi is old, since it has nothing to do with this matter, why bother to go to this troubled water?" ”

Song Hanfei seemed to have been stabbed, and his pupils constricted. The right side of his face trembled slightly, and the veins on his head flare up, clearly angry. He gritted his teeth and glared at Chu Ye.

Chu Ye smiled casually, and said casually: "I have become a leading bird, what should I do if I am beaten?" ”

"You!" He stretched out a hand and pointed at Chu Ye, and scolded sharply from the corner of his eyes, "But when you become a scholar, you are so impetuous and disrespectful to your predecessors!" ”

Chu Ye held the wat board in his hand, with an expression of "Lao Tzu is so dissatisfied with beating me", and bought one step after another with the most standard pace, leaving Song Hanfei far behind. The officials who were also from a poor family like Chu Ye followed. Without squinting and striding forward, it was the biggest mockery of a group of scholars led by Song Hanfei.

Song Hanfei gritted his teeth tightly, as if he still couldn't believe that Chu Ye was really so disrespectful to her!

The emperor became more and more resolute in his desire to eliminate evils, and these old-school students and magnates were more and more excluded from the center of power.

From the beginning of the year to the present, the former secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Mr. Jiang, sent a letter to the official in advance, and the errand of the new commander of Bo Jiumen was dismissed...... The emperor has repeatedly belittled these scholars and magnates, and his intention to support the children of the poor family is obvious!

And Chu Ye's attitude towards him now illustrates this even more!

Chu Ye knew that the emperor wanted to respect the cold and suppress the noble, so he became more and more proud, and he didn't take them in his eyes anymore!

Song Hanfei slowly climbed the stone steps and entered the Fengtian Hall again. The Hanmen disciples led by Chu Ye had already stood in their respective positions. He walked to his place with hatred.

I only heard the shrill voice of the waiter, and suddenly remembered: "The emperor has arrived!" ”

All the ministers knelt on their knees, holding the wat board, bowing their heads slightly, and greeted in unison: "The ministers see the emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live!" ”

In the midst of this earth-shattering cry, the emperor was dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe and sat on the dragon chair under the service of Sun Tingyu, the personal attendant.

The emperor sat upright on the high platform, looked down at the ministers kneeling below, raised his hand and said, "Flatten!" ”

The ministers bowed their heads again and thanked them before they stood up again, and stood in place with their eyebrows bowed.

Sun Tingyu shook off the dust and took half a step forward: "If there is something to play, there is nothing to retreat!" ”

The Emperor was clearly in a good mood today, smiling as if waiting for the courtiers to say something.

"Your Majesty, the minister has something to do!" Song Hanfei took a step forward, "The ministers are deeply favored by the emperor, and they have lived in the position of imperial history for many years, and they can be regarded as seeing a young generation such as the Ministry of Rites, who are brave and resourceful, and have great ambitions, and it can be said that the future is ......terrifying" Song Yushi said a long time, eager to hold Chu Ye's group of people to the sky, which made the ministers of Song Hanfei and his faction all show shocked expressions and look at each other.

What's going on?

Didn't you meet people on a narrow road just now, and didn't give in to each other, why did it become like this for so long!

Unexpectedly, Song Hanfei's words changed, and he continued: "The minister saw that these young talents were active in my Western Jin Dynasty court, and they felt that they were old and frail, and it was really difficult to bear the heavy trust of His Majesty, so the minister just took this opportunity today to ask His Majesty to allow the old minister to resign from his official position, and he could go home and tease his grandson, and he was ...... every year."

Song Yushi, who has always been high-spirited, took the initiative to beg for bones?!

Whether it is the old-school scholars of Song Hanfei's faction or not, they can't help but be surprised! Before he could get back to his heart, he looked at Song Hanfei and bowed deeply to the ground with sorrow, and said, "Please allow Your Majesty to ......."

At this moment, Chu Ye looked at Song Hanfei a little stunned, she didn't believe that the power of the love stack was like Song Hanfei, and he would beg for bones so easily!

Sure enough, as soon as Song Hanfei's voice fell, an old party minister jumped out first and said sadly: "Lord Song, what are these words!" You are a veteran of the three dynasties, a pillar of the imperial court, how can you abandon the official and go! ”

"That's it! Please also ask Your Majesty to think twice, compared to Lord Song, who is physically and mentally exhausted these days and confused for a while, he will say such a thing......"

At this time, the new party headed by Chu Ye was naturally not willing to be lonely, and several officials with acceptable official positions also jumped out and applauded.

One said that Song Hanfei's initiative to take the initiative is exemplary and worth advocating. The other said that since he was old and infirm, he should retire early and give up his position to a loyal courtier who was strong and hard-working.

The old party ministers were aggrieved in their hearts, and they listened to this group of new party ministers jumping up and down, making nonsense, and constantly making sarcastic remarks. Naturally, the New Party, for its part, was not to be outdone. Both sides expressed their opinions, and the smell of gunpowder became stronger and stronger, as if they were about to fight with a wat board. The leader who could be looked at twice more, one kneeling on the ground, the other standing still.

At this time, Fang Hongkuang finally couldn't bear it anymore and shouted: "Ministers, have you all forgotten where you are?!" ”

"What a system of noisy yelling! This is not in the alley of the market, but in front of the Son of Heaven, and it is not quiet! ”

With Fang Hongkuang roaring like this, all the ministers gradually came back to their senses, raised their eyes and peeked at the Son of Heaven, who had been calm and silent after the imperial case, and hurriedly bowed down and pleaded guilty.

"Your Majesty." Fang Hong glanced at Chu Ye obliquely, he didn't expect this Chu Shangshu to be so old, but he was so calm, he sighed in his heart, but he had to say: "The minister thinks that Lord Song's request for His Majesty's permission to return to his hometown should be considered in the long run, I don't know what Your Majesty thinks?" ”

As a representative of the family's faction, he naturally would not let Song Hanfei return to his hometown and withdraw from the political arena so easily.

The emperor deliberately supported Chu Ye and suppressed the old party, if Song Hanfei returned to his hometown at this time, wouldn't he be the only one left to bear the emperor's suppression?

Even if he still needs Fang Guifei to help him deal with one or two after the harem, but he still has five princes to support, if the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion is declining, and the five princes have no status as the eldest son, nor do they have the title of concubine, how can they ascend to the throne!

Fang Hongkuang is worthy of being immersed in the court for many years, and he is really beautiful in playing with one hand. Not only the old party has nothing to say, but even the new party can only roll its eyes and look helpless.

The emperor's face was gloomy, and his index finger and thumb circled in a circle, knocking on the imperial case, without saying a word.

The emperor did not speak, whether it was the new party or the old party, the ministers stood with their heads bowed and did not speak.

The spring breeze blew violently, sending a cool breeze into the hall, making all the ministers in the hall feel cold behind their backs.

The emperor pondered for a long time, and suddenly as if he remembered something, he said in a deep voice: "Seventh Emperor, what do you think? ”

Following the emperor's words, the eyes of all the ministers secretly looked towards the side of the imperial platform.

And the place where people should be standing is empty. Even Chu Ye unconsciously gasped.

Sima Jin: This is ...... It's an early dynasty again!

Even the emperor couldn't help but be a little stunned when he looked at the vacant seat. As if he remembered something, Sun Tingyu turned to the emperor and bowed down and whispered: "Your Majesty, you forgot, this morning, His Royal Highness the Prime Minister took the county lord of Le'an to greet the queen's mother, or did you give permission to His Royal Highness not to go to court early today, and to accompany the mother for a while." ”

Only then did the emperor remember that when he went to the queen's place for breakfast today, he saw Sima Jin and Xiaoshan asking for peace in the queen's palace.

thought that Sima Jin would be more reliable if he was crowned the king, but who knew that he would take a day off as soon as he saw him, saying that he wanted to accompany his mother and daughter. He looked at Xiao Shan's eyes blinking wide, and he agreed with a soft heart for a while!

Alas.

The Emperor couldn't help but sigh in his heart. I didn't expect this Xiao Qi to be so unreliable today!
