"Lord Fang, are you feeling better?" asked Fang Haoze again at this time. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"It's about fine, I can walk on my own. Fang Haoze nodded, and looked at the sky again: "While the sky is not dark and the palace ban is not opened, we can go to the emperor to return to him." ”

"Lord Fang is right. The leader of the Shadow Guard agreed.

Then the shadow guards found a carriage and entered the palace. Of course, it is naturally inconvenient for a corpse to be seen by the emperor himself, so it is handed over to the officials of the Criminal Department outside the palace first.

Everyone rode the carriage from the outer city of Baiyujing to the inner hall of the palace, and the shadow guards got off the car and scattered, leaving only Fang Haoze and the leader of the shadow guards, and continued to the East Pole Palace.

After informing the eunuch guarding the door, the emperor naturally couldn't help but be overjoyed and asked someone to hurry up. Only one day later, the task he ordered was completed so quickly, which was really unexpected by the emperor.

He didn't know Fang Haoze's demigod cultivation, but he naturally knew the difficulty of using a mortal body to fight against the divine sacrifice.

"Your Majesty, fortunately, the water god sacrifice who colluded with the minister has been found, but she knows that she is guilty of a serious crime, and she has no face, so she committed suicide to apologize. Fang Haoze saluted.

Subsequently, he briefly introduced the process of finding Mrs. Xiang, and focused on the experience in the half-plane, as for how he discovered the coincidence of Mrs. Xiang, he naturally concealed it.

"The above is the student's report, with the leader of the shadow guard as evidence. Fang Haoze said for a long time, and finally concluded.

"Yes, that's a good job. The Emperor was silent for a moment and said affirmatively.

At this time, the East Pole Hall was the same as yesterday, and the subordinates were retired, leaving only a few people, and the atmosphere was already dull, and at the moment when the emperor pondered, it was even more depressing.

After thinking about it, the emperor said again: "You have already sent the corpse to the Criminal Department, and you will hand it over to them to handle the case later." Everyone handled the case quickly this time, and naturally there was a prize. ”

"Students just did their part, and they didn't dare to be rewarded. Fang Haoze deliberately made a panicked look.

"I have already made it clear that I naturally want to make a promise, so let's do it, you said before that you have finished your errand and want to go back to the Dingjiang construction site, I can approve it. The Emperor said with a smile.

"However, I have only summoned you back from the river, and I can't send you back immediately, lest the courtiers say that my order has changed. You go back and prepare a note, and tomorrow morning you will be allowed to meet you, and you will defend yourself in front of all the ministers. ”

"This is also a question to test you, if you are wonderful in self-defense, I will promote you to a grade, hang you in the Ministry of Industry, and re-appoint you as a new official to inspect the water to go to the riverside. Of course, if you defend yourself and don't get a full applause, you will have to wait until the Dingjiang flood season to release you. ”

Hearing the emperor say this, Fang Haoze was a little puzzled in his heart, and he was a little unhappy, but he reacted quickly: "Thank you for the emperor's grace." ”

"Okay, then you can step back first, it's not too late tomorrow morning. I will wait for someone to go to the cabinet to report to you and say hello to Prime Minister Gu Changshan. ”

In the early dynasty, not all officials could go to the palace, and generally officials in Beijing could only go to the palace if they reached the fifth rank and above, and Fang Haoze only retired from the six-rank official position at this time, so he was naturally not qualified for the early dynasty, so the emperor had to order someone to report to the cabinet.

Then the student quit first. Fang Haoze saluted.

He always called himself a student to the emperor, and rarely called himself a minister, and the same was true for the Seven Princes. When he came down from the main world, he didn't like to be a minion. also because he became famous at a young age, this red tape, the emperor and others subconsciously ignored it.

Seeing Fang Haoze leaving, the emperor suddenly had a gloomy face, turned his head and asked another party in the hall: "Shadow Guard, what reason did you find for the corpse to be stored in the Criminal Department?"

"Back to the emperor, because the matter involves Shinto, Lord Fang is also very cautious, so he said that it was a headless murder that he encountered on the road. The leader of the shadow guard said respectfully.

"Well, you go and sink the corpse into the Dingjiang water system, and order the people of the Qin Heavenly Prison to attach a message and give the water god a little color, which can be regarded as a coming-and-going. The emperor said lightly.

The Qin Heavenly Prison is the institution in charge of mystical affairs in the imperial court, and like the shadow guards, it is not seen in front of ordinary people. The proclamation that the emperor said was another kind of instrument that reached the gods, and the specifications were lower than the sacrificial words, which was somewhat similar to the level of the report.

"In all dynasties, the gods have interfered with the mundane, but there is a bottom line, this time the Dingjiang water god actually asked my courtiers to give advice, which is a big taboo, it can be seen that he is also in a hurry. The emperor's face turned slightly pale.

"You go down and make arrangements, Fang Guancheng finally breathed a sigh of relief for me this time, it seems that Dingjiang Governance has grasped the key point of the project under his auspices this time. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. The leader of the shadow guard replied, took a step back, and the figure gradually faded in front of the emperor, and finally disappeared.

With the departure of the leader of the shadow guard, the emperor picked up a document at hand, which was the previous court meeting, and the courtiers discussed to impeach Fang Haoze.

The emperor turned the fold until the last page, on which were written several names, all of whom were Beijing officials in the imperial court.

"Hmph, if it weren't for Bai Yujing's big array, I wouldn't have known that among the ministers I regarded as pillars, there were still such people who were bought by Shinto. ”

After talking to himself, the emperor was angry, threw the song away, and said angrily to the eunuchs beside him: "Let's go to the palace." ”

In the case of the East Pole Palace, Fang Haoze, who had already withdrawn, naturally didn't know. He was thinking in his heart about the tomorrow's audience arranged by the emperor.

This will be Fang Haoze's first appearance in front of courtiers, and the emperor's seemingly casual request, in Fang Haoze's opinion, is definitely not simple.

Because he knew that the emperor must have a deep meaning, what to write in the content of his self-defense and where the focus is, he is particular, and Fang Haoze definitely needs to plan carefully.

I thought about it all the way, and when I arrived at the palace gate, he suddenly realized: "I see, haha, this emperor is also a treacherous and cunning, and he will do the wicked man to me, I know how to write this recital." ”

There were no outsiders near the palace gate, Fang Haoze stood and laughed several times, then stopped and walked towards the apartment.

Walking to the location of the second ring road, Fang Haoze saw Mingyun standing on the side of the road, driving a carriage. This housekeeper is so attentive that he knows that he has to go back after finishing his errands, so he probably has been waiting here for a long time.

"Childe, please get in the car. Mingyun hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

"Well, it's hard to be a housekeeper. Fang Haoze smiled, when he saw Mingyun, he couldn't help but think of the half-plane he had obtained from Mrs. Xiang.

In this way, the master and servant returned home in the sunset.

Halfway through, Fang Haoze's body suddenly shook, and then he was relaxed. He couldn't help but lift the curtain, the large array of power shrouded in Bai Yujing was slowly retracting, the coercion in the city gradually disappeared, and the aura that had originally permeated several towers also disappeared.

The big array was retracted, which can be regarded as a sigh of relief. Fang Haoze muttered to himself, he obviously felt that the suppressed body had regained some extraordinary strength, and the previously suppressed feeling was also a lot easier.
