Chapter 44: Doubts arise one after another
The sun rises in the east, and the golden halo sways on the majestic palace, a little vibrant, a little majestic.
Suddenly, the father-in-law of Fu Lin said: "The ministers go to court"
Su took a deep breath of the fresh morning air, smiled slightly, and walked up.
"Master Su, you look very refreshed today!" The old minister Chao Boyong suddenly slowed down a few steps, turned his head and smiled kindly.
I never thought that this first-class old minister in the DPRK would talk to him, Su was slightly surprised, but he still smiled politely: "I slept peacefully yesterday, and today I am naturally spiritual." ”
"The daughter of the royal family doesn't do it, but she runs around in the court, Lord Su, it's a pity!" With a low sigh, Chao Boyong strode forward.
Hearing Chao Boyong's words, Su was slightly surprised. Chao Lao already knew his identity? But what does his "it's a pity" mean?
There were many people on the way to the court, and Su didn't dare to ask more, so he could only quietly watch Chao Boyong's staggering figure, full of confusion.
Above the Jinluan Palace, Emperor Hua was late.
Glancing at Emperor Hua through the layers of courtiers, Su's heart jumped suddenly.
I haven't seen this for a few days, why did Emperor Hua suddenly seem to be ten years older?
Hua Huang, who originally had only a little gray hair, now has half a head of white hair, and he has a thick blue shadow under his eyes, and his face is vain, which seems to be inadequate.
Since the early dynasty, there have been many doubts, Su Mai stepped forward and said loudly: "Minister, there is a book to play!" ”
"Say." A faint word, although the voice was not loud or small, Su was still keenly aware of the lack of confidence in this statement.
Secretly frowned, what happened to Emperor Hua?
"Your Majesty, yesterday's criminal Du Qingqiang has been detained in prison, not only admitting to forgery, but also turning out the old case seven years ago" At this point, Su took out the thin paper from his lenient official uniform and presented it:
"Du Qingqiang framed the Yu family seven years ago, causing more than 100 people of the Yu family to die tragically under the butcher's knife at the noon gate, please let the emperor know it!"
Taking the paper, Hua Huang squinted at it, barely able to make out the font on it. Seeing the content of the book, Hua Huang did not react.
Casually handed the painting book to Fu Lin, Emperor Hua leaned on the dragon chair, and said slowly: "Well, come here, bring Du Qingqiang to the palace for me!" ”
There are attendants who leave from the side door of the Jinluan Palace, and the court is quiet again.
Ye Chen pursed his lips and looked at Su who was standing not far from him, his expression was dark and uncertain.
After a long time, suddenly an attendant entered in a panic from the side door, kneeling on the cold ground of the Jinluan Palace, and the six gods had no owner: "Your Majesty, the prison of the Criminal Department has been robbed, and Lord Du is gone!" ”
"What?!" When Emperor Hua, who had been calm since the early dynasty, heard this, he suddenly became angry, raised his hand and patted the dragon chair fiercely, almost trembling with anger: "Where is the Shangshu of the Criminal Department?!" ”
The Shangshu of the Criminal Department stood up to the anger of the Emperor Hua, knelt on the ground and kept pleading guilty.
Seeing Shang Shucheng's frightened appearance in the Criminal Department, Emperor Hua's face softened slightly: "That's it!" I ordered you to find Du Qingqiang within three days, otherwise, you should be replaced by someone else in the position of the secretary of the Criminal Department! ”
Seeing that Shangshu of the Criminal Department was ordered to retire, Su's heart fluctuated. I obviously cut off all the connections between the women's party and Du Qingqiang, how did Du Qingqiang escape?
Just thinking about this, I suddenly heard Emperor Hua say: "Su girl! You have made meritorious contributions to investigating the case, and now the position of Dali Temple is vacant, Dali Temple is my important place, no one can preside over justice, from today on, you will serve as the secretary of Dali Temple! ”
Hearing Emperor Hua's words, Su Yi was stunned. immediately reacted, and from then on, she was a second-grade official!
Suppressing the ecstasy in his heart, Su knelt down and thanked him: "Minister, thank you Lord Longen!" ”
Promoted from the scholar of the Wupin Palace to the second-grade Dali Temple, it was only the words of the court and was not enough to convince the public, so under the instructions of Emperor Hua, the father-in-law of Fulin began to draw up the holy decree.
The ministers in the palace looked at Su with complicated eyes, all of them were frightened and envious......
Feeling everyone's gaze, Su lowered his head, but the corners of his lips couldn't help but rise.
She has finally become a powerful person, finally no longer oppressed by any means, and can finally do what she wants......
"Master Su, take the order." Father-in-law Fu Lin walked up to Su and presented the holy decree.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and Su took the holy decree, only to feel that it weighed a thousand pounds.
Before the words of gratitude could be spoken, Su suddenly felt that the holy decree in his hand was in his sight.
Before he could react, Su only felt that his eyes were dark and fell to one side.
The expected pain did not come as promised, a pair of hands held her steadily, and the cold breath mixed with the fragrance of bamboo leaves poured into the tip of her nose, and Su was slightly relieved.
At the moment before losing consciousness, Su heard Hua Huang laugh loudly: "Su Yatou is really too small, but she was so excited that she fainted with excitement after three consecutive promotions." ”
She wanted to struggle, to justify that she was not unconscious because of her joy, but she only felt that she had sunk into the boundless ocean, and she was so heavy that she lost all consciousness in the next moment.
"How?" Ye Chen raised his eyes, looked at Divine Doctor Ji who had already finished taking his pulse, and asked in a cold voice.
Doctor Ji withdrew his hand and sighed: "Old man, I have been practicing medicine for decades, and I have never seen such symptoms. If you really want to say it, it's not like being sick, it's ...... Gu poison. ”
Hearing Divine Doctor Ji's words, Ye Chen's originally dark eyes suddenly seemed to set off a monstrous wave, and his emotions surged, after a long time of calm, Ye Chen looked at Divine Doctor Ji and said coldly: "You go out and explain to those imperial doctors that Su is overworked, so he fell into a short coma." ”
"I have to do everything with the old man, why don't you do it?!" Doctor Ji blew his beard and glared, extremely dissatisfied with Ye Chen's arrangement. Thinking that he has been a doctor for decades, no one has ever dared to order him to do anything!
"Are you a miracle doctor or this king?" Ye Chen glanced at Divine Doctor Ji coldly, and unceremoniously forced Divine Doctor Ji out of the room with his internal force, and the door of the hall behind him closed with a "bang".
Touching the back of his head that was almost caught by the door, thinking of Su's state, Divine Doctor Ji didn't think too much, but sent away all the imperial doctors sent by Emperor Hua according to Ye Chen's intentions.
In the room, Ye Chen stroked Su's slightly hot and reddened face, and sighed lowly: "Sure enough...... Still doesn't work...... This king can no longer allow you to do whatever you want. ”
On the other hand, Shang Shu of the Criminal Department and dozens of jailers are searching for the prison used to hold Du Qingqiang. Everything seems to be normal here, but there is no one in the place where Du Qingqiang is being held.
If Su were again, he would keenly notice that the faces of those prisoners who had appeared a few days ago had disappeared at this moment.
It was dark, damp and dim, and the smell was disgusting, and Shangshu, who rarely entered the prison, turned blue and had an urge to scold.
Covering his mouth and nose with the sleeves of his wide official uniform, Shangshu of the Criminal Department followed the jailer step by step, but he heard an exclamation suddenly from the depths of the prison, and then someone ran quickly to report:
"My lord, there is a discovery!"
The Shangshu of the Criminal Department stared at him, and quickly followed the jailer to the depths of the prison.
