Chapter 196: Let it go

Sure enough, following Eunuch Wang's words, the carriage walked for a while and stopped on the side of the road. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Fang Haoze and the others also came down, changed into a more gorgeous royal carriage, passed the checkpoint of the imperial city, and entered the palace.

Along the way, Fang Haoze didn't have the heart to look at the scenery, only thinking about the reason why the emperor suddenly summoned him.

According to his current status, he can also be regarded as a criminal minister, and the holy decree says "return to Beijing to wait", according to the rules of officialdom, I am afraid that he will have to sit on the cold bench for a long time.

But he had just entered Baiyujing, so he had to be the eunuch Wang's words, obviously the other party had been explained by the emperor before leaving Beijing.

When I am called at this time, I am afraid that something will really happen.

"Young Master Fang, the inner hall is almost here, and the road behind is about to get off the car and walk. Just thinking about it, Eunuch Wang reminded him, interrupting Fang Haoze's train of thought.

"Please also ask your father-in-law to lead the way. Fang Haoze nodded and got out of the car.

After a while, the two of them came to the door of a large hall, Fang Haoze had been here before, it was the East Pole Hall where the emperor summoned his ministers.

After waiting for the report, a eunuch inside came out to pick up Fang Haoze in, and Eunuch Wang said hello and left alone.

In early summer, except for a few ice basins in the corner, the East Pole Hall was still the same.

The Emperor sat majestically on the official case, in front of him a pile of documents, some of which were still scattered.

"The guilty minister visits the emperor. Fang Haoze made a salute.

"Excuse me, sit down. The emperor answered, and then waved his hand, no one else will go out first, I have something to say.

After receiving the order, the eunuchs and maidservants in the Dongji Hall all came out, and only the big eunuch beside the emperor stayed to serve.

"I heard that in the past month, your project by the Dingjiang River has been quite eyebrow-raising?" said the emperor warmly when no one was around. He also attaches great importance to words, although Fang Haoze was dismissed, he didn't talk about the problem when they met, and only affirmed the other party's achievements.

"Back to the emperor, the project has now been carried out in an orderly manner, and if there is no accident in the future, it will be a water mill. Fang Haoze didn't know what to do, and only replied vaguely.

"Do you know the reason for the sudden dismissal of you this time?" the Emperor nodded with satisfaction and asked again.

"Of course, the students were not doing well, so that the riverbank burst and flooded the farmland. Fang Haoze replied.

He naturally knew that it must be some opponents in the court who were taking the opportunity to make trouble, but the emperor asked at this time, of course, he could only take the question to himself.

This is also how it should be, if the river does not burst its banks, even the opponents will not be able to pull him down.

"I'm glad you can see through this, and it's not in vain that I think so highly of you. The Emperor suddenly laughed and said with satisfaction.

After a pause, he continued: "To tell you the truth, it was not my intention to remove you from your post this time. Judging from the situation described by Lao Qi in the recital, you have not only been able to deal with the embankment failure this time, but you have also been meritorious. ”

"But I am the emperor, and I have to balance all parties in the court, and this time you have triggered the impeachment of many bureaucrats who oppose the water control because of the collapse of the embankment, and I can't suppress it, so I can only temporarily recall you to calm the emotions of the rest of the people. ”

The emperor's words are also a little sincere, and being able to explain the causes and consequences is already a rare love.

Fang Haoze naturally knew the reason for his own dismissal, and when he heard the emperor's explanation, he had no choice but to say: "The thunder, rain and dew are all Jun's grace, and the students naturally know it, and there is no complaint in their hearts." ”

"It's rare that you are young enough to see clearly, but although I am many years older than you, I can't have such an open-minded mood as you. The emperor suddenly reversed his tone and said solemnly.

"They are all in the palace, deaf and blind, with their eyes and ears closed?"

The Emperor stood up: "I have received a secret report, and this time behind the officials who put pressure on me in the imperial court, there is a mysterious figure who is constantly connecting with them. The removal of you this time, although it is a smooth push and evacuates the emotions of the officials of the imperial court, the most important reason is to call you back and find out the mysterious person. ”

When the Son of Heaven was angry, it was naturally extraordinary. In Fang Haoze's divine eyes, the purple qi surrounding the emperor's body was also affected by the emperor, constantly surging, bubbling up like a fountain.

Under the influence of this purple qi, Fang Haoze's sensitive body also felt a tingling in the skin, as if it were a pinprick. He hurriedly hid his godhead deeply, and all his divine power was withdrawn from the sea of knowledge, and after closing his eyes, his body was light, and he didn't feel pain.

"It is said that the mysterious figure is the priestess of the Dingjiang Water God, and she has some extraordinary powers, and I will assign the chief shadow guard of the royal family to you, and I will find the sacrifice for me, and I will ask her what dares to lobby the court officials. ”

In the emperor's heart, the world and the court officials are all royal prisons, and at this time, the Dingjiang water god actually dared to use the power of the temple to interfere with secular officials, which provoked the emperor's bottom line.

In addition, the emperor had a grudge against the Dingjiang Water God before, and also counted the death of the eldest prince on the head of the Dingjiang Water God.

It also coincided with the opportunity for opponents to impeach Fang Haoze, and the emperor just took the opportunity to remove Fang Haoze from his post, recall Bai Yujing, and secretly look for the water god to sacrifice. In this way, the enemy naturally does not think that there is such a hidden means.

"You can rest assured, as long as you successfully find out the water god sacrifice who dares to connect with the courtiers, I will not treat you badly, so stay in Beijing as an official. The Emperor commanded.

"The student thanks the emperor for his kindness, if the student really does not return to Shengwang and finishes his errand, he also wants to continue to go to the Dingjiang Water Control Camp. Fang Haoze said with a smile.

He didn't expect that the emperor would remove himself from his post and come back, and he was also looking for an acquaintance.

The sacrifice that the official emperor said, Fang Haoze's heart is also the same as that of a mirror: except for the Xiang lady, it can't be anyone else. And this Mrs. Xiang was originally the object she was looking for while she was impeached.

Fang Haoze really didn't expect that his plan coincided with the emperor's goal of recalling you back to Bai Yujing, and he was also a little happy in his heart - his plan on the Dingjiang construction site, although it was prepared with both hands, was useless in the end.

"Well, if thou shalt find out to me, it is better to be alive than dead. My world does not allow the gods to interfere. After the matter is completed, you will be reinstated, and you can't go to Dingjiang, anyway, it's your own choice. ”

The emperor looked at Fang Haoze amusedly: "You really control the water with all your heart, and don't spend the world, you are really a pure minister." Okay, now that the matter is explained, you can go down, the shadow guard is already by your side, and you will come out to meet you when you return to the apartment. ”

Then the student took his leave. Fang Haoze stood up and saluted.

The shadow guard that the emperor said was actually a cultivator who was infinitely close to the fourth order, and he walked to him from the corner of the hall as early as when the emperor was exiting.

If it were other mortals, they would naturally not be able to see this high-level cultivator, but even if Fang Haoze withdrew his divine gaze when the emperor's purple qi was boiling, he would be able to see the shadow guard clearly, but he just pretended not to know in front of the emperor.
