Qin Dongshan did not act immediately, he waited with a hint of luck.

Almost within half an hour, the accident in the Prime Minister's Mansion was known to the entire aristocratic circle in Shengjing, and everyone had different thoughts.

Xiangfu, in Shengjing, has always been a figure on the cusp, everyone is disdainful on their faces, but they are envious in their hearts, every time there is something in Xiangfu, the major families have a good time to watch.

In the past, because of Qin Wan, most of these people were envious, Qin Dongshan was so blessed, and he had such a competitive daughter. After Qin Wan and Qin Dongshan broke up, everyone gloated, Qin Dongshan was once the champion, and he was exquisite, not to mention the wind and rain in the court, but also a character who responded to every call, but it was a pity that he couldn't see through the attitude towards a pair of children, and wasted Qin Wan's such a good identity.

Although everyone still doesn't know what happened in the Prime Minister's Mansion, they saw that they had entered the Prime Minister's Mansion and brought a woman out, and that woman was called "Ruyan", everyone knew that the show was not far away.

The people of Shengjing are most enthusiastic about the affairs of the aristocratic circle, so the matter of the Xiangfu quickly spread in the community, and there are various versions, and I don't know what crime the people of the Xiangfu imposed on Ruyan, and they were sent directly to the Yamen.

Aren't the concubines' deeds of sale all in the hands of the master's mother?

Although Qin Mingxuan does not have a wife, Ruyan's deed of sale is in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and with Ji's methods, she can directly take her life by planting a crime, why bother to mobilize the public?

The more they couldn't figure it out, the more excited everyone became, because what they couldn't understand, the bigger the cat in it, this kind of aristocratic circle played, high-IQ game, how could people like them figure it out?

After Qin Dongshan calmed down, he stayed in the study until midnight, during which no one entered or left the Prime Minister's Mansion, whether it was Jing Zhaoyin or Dali Temple, no one came to interrogate, let alone interrogate or anything.

Qin Dongshan only knows that Ruyan is the bitter master, and he doesn't know what Piaohong is complaining about, and who the so-called "prisoner" is, but he only takes away the bitter master, and does not mention the prisoner, which one is this singing?

However, he was also very glad that Dali Temple didn't come to mention people, otherwise, where would he put his old face?

"Master......" Ji Shi stood outside the study with supper, "The concubine boiled some bird's nest porridge, master, you didn't eat much at night, drink some easy-to-digest bird's nest porridge." ”

Qin Dongshan nodded, "Come in." ”

The study is heavy, if it weren't for Qin Dongshan's heart and needing someone to talk to him, Ji wouldn't be able to get in.

Ji handed the bowl to Qin Dongshan, "Master, you drink something, what's the matter, let's talk about it after eating." ”

Qin Dongshan nodded and reluctantly took two sips.

Ji carefully checked Qin Dongshan's face, and tried to ask, "Master, does Concubine Ming'er want to wait for you to get up?" ”

She asked tactfully, but Qin Dongshan understood what she meant.

There is no news from Dali Temple, and there is no will from the Shengshang side, Ming'er's early dynasty, will he go or not?

If you don't go, you're absent for no reason, go ahead, if you are stopped at the palace gate, it's really embarrassing.

Qin Dongshan pondered for two seconds and said, "Ming'er will not go to me in the morning, and after retreating, I will enter the palace by myself." ”

"Master......" Ji looked at Qin Dongshan worriedly, "If the Holy Lord is over there......"

Ji wanted to speak and stopped, feeling worried.

Qin Dongshan let out a long sigh, the matter was completely out of his control, although the current situation was difficult to control, but he was sure that the Holy Lord could not miss him!

He is Qin Wan's father, if the saint wants Qin Wan to be in Shengjing as the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, he must protect him and the Prime Minister's Mansion, otherwise, Qin Wan will be implicated in this matter, she is not married yet, if something like this happens to her mother's family, who would dare to marry her in Shengjing?

Therefore, the Holy Lord needs him, and he needs him to live in the name of Qinwan's "father".

However, his purpose is not just to live.

It's time to collect interest.

After raising Qin Wan for so many years and giving her so many good things, now, it's time for him to harvest.

The next day, Qin Dongshan did not have an early dynasty due to illness, and everyone was not surprised, as if they had guessed it a long time ago, but everyone was a little strange about the attitude of the saint.

Ruyan is now staying in Dali Temple, the people of Dali Temple have neither let people investigate this matter, nor have they intended to interrogate the case, although Qin Dongshan has not been in the early dynasty, but he is also unscathed in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and everyone does not understand the old emperor's intentions at the moment.

Do you want to let Qin Dongshan come back after this matter fades?

However, in that case, why not dispose of Ruyan?

Or do you want to deliberately leave Ruyan and take the handle of Qin Dongshan, lest he be overshadowed by his achievements?

For a while, everyone thought a lot, and they were a little absent-minded in the court.

The old emperor looked like an old god, and he didn't mention the matter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and everyone didn't dare to ask, until he retired from the dynasty, and the old emperor didn't let Shaoqing of Dali Temple do anything.

Not long after returning to the imperial study, someone came to report that Qin Dongshan was here.

The old emperor smiled knowingly.

Qin Dongshan came in with a lot of momentum, and he was respectful to the old emperor, but he didn't do anything wrong.

"Minister, knock on the emperor."

The old emperor looked at Qin Dongshan condescendingly, with an inexplicable look in his eyes, and after a long time, he said quietly: "Flat." ”

Qin Dongshan buried his head and said in a stiff tone: "Your Majesty, the minister is at fault. ”

There is a fault, not a sin.

"Oh, what's wrong?" The old emperor asked along with Qin Dongshan's words.

Qin Dongshan said angrily: "The minister was mistaken because of greed, and he was calculated. ”

"Calculation?" The old emperor's voice froze.

Qin Dongshan paused before continuing: "Your Majesty, the ministers are the people, you know best, over the years, the ministers have worked hard for the people, and the people in the backyard have been clean. ”

"I don't care about your backyard, there are frequent accidents in the backyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion, I have long been used to it, not to mention the ministers of the Central Committee, even the people are waiting for the good things of the Prime Minister's Mansion every day."

Qin Dongshan's old face turned red, and he knelt on the ground with a plop, "Your Majesty, the minister doesn't want to do this, but over the years, Bai Zhishui doesn't care about anything, and the minister can only let the Ji family manage the backyard, what can she do as a woman who has never seen the world?" However, she has also put a lot of thought into it over the years, and she also has a credit for being able to make the Prime Minister like it is now. ”

The topic was far away, and Qin Dongshan hurriedly said: "This time, it is the minister's carelessness, and I ask the emperor to punish him!" ”

"How do you think I will punish you?" The old emperor was in a good mood and actually "chatted" with Qin Dongshan.

When Qin Dongshan heard this, his tense nerves eased, and it seemed that as long as he symbolically admitted his mistake, the Holy Lord would help him carry it.

"The minister asked for a three-month ban and a one-year fine." Qin Dongshan thought about it carefully, he couldn't go out for three months, but it didn't affect him to plan behind his back, and it was better this way, he didn't show up, but he could help Zhang Ruishun more.

The old emperor laughed angrily, "Qin Xiang, such a big matter, you want me to come to a conclusion so easily, when Dali Temple is a decoration?" Today, you're not here to plead guilty, but to negotiate conditions, right? ”

"I don't dare." Qin Dongshan said humbly.

The old emperor's eyes turned around Qin Dongshan, as if he was examining something, and he didn't seem to see anything, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

At this point, Qin Dongshan can only bite the bullet.

"Your Majesty, the minister doesn't dare, the minister just thinks that the county lord of Anping can't do without his father." Qin Dongshan said it was extremely vague, but the hint was extremely obvious.

The old emperor smiled again, "Jiaojiao has already left the Prime Minister's Mansion, what does the matter of the Prime Minister's Mansion have to do with her?" Besides, as Jiaojiao, whether she has a 'father' or not has little impact on her. ”

"Your Majesty!" Qin Dongshan was a little anxious, "The minister is your courtier, and he should share your worries, so the green hat on the minister's head has been worn for more than ten years, this is the minister's duty, and the minister has no complaints." But the minister also has selfish intentions, hoping that the prime minister's mansion can continue in the hands of the minister, and the minister will not use this matter to blackmail the emperor unless it is absolutely necessary. ”

"Have you figured out the consequences?" The expression on the old emperor's face was a little strange.

Qin Dongshan raised his head, "The minister knows that if he makes this request today, I am afraid that the minister's career will come to an end, but I also ask the emperor to understand the minister's painstaking efforts, and the minister also wants to protect the county lord of Anping and watch her get married." The minister's requirements are not high, and he only hopes that Ming Xuan can be reinstated. ”

Qin Dongshan has calculated, as long as Qin Mingxuan returns to the Hanlin Academy, he will lie dormant for three months, and after three months......

Hiding the edge in his eyes, Qin Dongshan was not as worried about his career as he said.

It won't be long before the crown prince will succeed to the throne, and the position of "prime minister" can no longer satisfy his appetite.

Thinking that he had reached an agreement with the old emperor, Qin Dongshan left satisfied.

However, on the second day, instead of waiting for the holy decree of Qin Mingxuan's reinstatement, the Prime Minister was told that the Dali Temple had begun to hear Ruyan's case.

After Qin Dongshan heard the news, his heart sank at first, and then he calmed down.

On that day, Ruyan was taken away in full view, and the case was also registered in Dali Temple, so how can it be a formality, this matter is that the thunder is loud, the rain is small, and it will soon pass.

The old emperor did not announce the grounding of Qin Dongshan, everything was taken for granted by Qin Dongshan, thinking that after the negotiation with the old emperor, the two had reached an agreement, so for Qin Dongshan's "spontaneous" grounding, although the ministers had doubts, they did not dare to ask more.

Finally, five days later, the case was concluded in the absence of the "main culprit".

Qin Dongshan violated human ethics and did things that were intolerable in the world, and should have been severely punished, remembering his dedication to the court over the years, and dismissed him from the position of "prime minister", and three days later, moved out of the prime minister's mansion. And Qin Dongshan was implicated because of Qin Dongshan's affairs, so his character was not suitable to continue to stay in office, and he was removed from his fame, and he was not allowed to participate in the imperial examination within five years.

As soon as the decree came out, everyone was in an uproar.
