After Lin Yuxiu retreated, Ye Tianhuai carefully read the file of the Cangchang case.

Lin Yuxiu's dossier was well detailed, objective and fair, and it was very smooth to read, and Ye Tianhuai quickly finished reading it.

Then, she fell into deep thought.

Although these cases have been investigated, the motives behind the main and accessory criminals are clear, like an impeccable complete story.

But Ye Qianhuai vaguely felt that this was just the tip of the iceberg.

This seemingly well-veined tree has intricate roots buried in the unknown underground, and these hidden parts are the key to its survival.

Ye Qianhuai didn't know how deep this root was buried, and he didn't know if he had the ability to uproot it.

and, whether she can afford to uproot.

She has always acted decisively and recklessly, but in front of this ancient tree, she also hesitated.

This matter needs to be considered in the long term. Ye said in his heart. But in any case, the food rations in the warehouse must be replenished, which is a major event related to the front-line battle situation.

She decided to test Chen Yuansi tomorrow morning.

——

However, Ye Qianhuai failed to test Chen Yuansi.

He said he was sick and on leave.

Not only that, but what surprised Ye Qianhuai even more was that she received a thick resignation letter from the cabinet after the next court, and the person who invited her was Chen Yuansi.

In his resignation, the head of the cabinet tearfully expressed his regret for not raising his son and managing his subordinates well, and then made a summary of his forty years of work in the Dajing court, and finally said that he was on the verge of death, suffering from the disease of negative salary, fearing the grace of God, and was willing to make way for the sage.

Ye Tianhuai frowned when he saw half of it.

This old man, a good move to retreat is to advance.

Although the whole text is a humble remark of Xiao Fulow, he first listed the efforts he has made for the court over the years, and then said openly and secretly that it was because the emperor had a new favored minister, so he had to let Xian. In the end, he spread his hands and handed over the mess directly to the emperor, and he quit himself.

It is as if the emperor is a faint prince who is close to the villain Yuan Xianchen, and he is the loyal and good who has worked hard for the court but has been wronged.

Ye Tianhuai finished reading the text, closed the fold suddenly, slammed it on the case, and said angrily: "Heh, it's really interesting." I don't believe it, the court of Dajing has left you Chen Yuansi, won't it turn around? ”

Annoyed and annoyed, after Ye Tianhuai finished scolding, he still picked up his pen and replied to a few words of consolation similar to "Is it important for the old man to be in good health" and "Dajing can't do without you" to persuade him to change his mind.

After the approval, Ye Qianhuai checked it again to make sure that his wording was considerate enough and could avoid the important and not make conclusions and promises.

Then, she sat down in her chair and looked at the resignation and thought about it.

Why did Chen Yuansi hand in his resignation at this time? Obviously, he was arguing with He Qingchang at a cabinet meeting two days ago over the cost of adding guns to the front, so why did he suddenly resign today?

There must be some opportunity.

After Ye Tianhuai thought about it, there was only one thing that could have touched Chen Yuansi's sensitive nerves.

That was Lin Yuxiu's audience.

There are no impermeable walls in the palace. It seems that he already knows that Lin Yuxiu came yesterday, and he also knows what he is here for.

He knew that with Lin Yuxiu's character and the emperor's attention to this case, this matter would not be good.

This is probably the reason why he is sick today.

But if you can hide from the first day of junior high school, you can't hide from the fifteenth, and avoiding it is not a long-term solution after all.

So he simply resigned and dismissed the official, so that Ye Tianhuai knew his importance to the imperial court, so that Ye Tianhuai had some scruples and did not dare to send Chen Xueshen down easily.

This is the same reason as when Wang Lisong wanted to enter Beijing and face the saint, Gu Shihai mobilized the Zhongzhou army to move to Shengjing.

is secretly coercing the emperor not to act rashly.

——

Facts have proved that Chen Yuansi does have enough hole cards to dare to do this.

The imperial court without Chen Yuansi is full of poverty, lack of money, lack of food and lack of people.

Yu Jianghui, the head of the household, is like an ornament, and he doesn't know anything.

Not only did he not know anything, but the entire household was.

Ye Qianhuai wanted to remove him, but after thinking about it, even if he was removed, there would be no one to replace him, so he had no choice but to give up.

After a stalemate for half a month, I stayed up until the rest of the day.

Ye Tianhuai got up early in the morning, took Zhou Shouyi and several imperial doctors, and followed by a team of guards, and marched towards the Chen Mansion in a mighty manner.

The Chen Mansion has not changed much from when she came back a few years ago.

It's just that this time it was no longer Chen Yuansi who entertained guests, but his second son Chen Jinzhou.

Chen Jinzhou, like his father, has a pair of goldfish eyes, he has a heavy circle of bags under his eyes, his expression is haggard, his back is slumped, and he looks like a sixty-year-old man at the age of forty.

For Ye Tianhuai to visit his father who was sick in bed, he first thanked Dade, and then said that his father was too sick to get out of bed, and the eldest brother was locked in the ancestral hall by his father for deep reflection, so it was his second son's turn to receive a distinguished guest like the emperor.

And then there was another bit of trepidation.

Ye Qianhuai also warmed up with him: "Ling Zun is really my humerus." His illness not only caused the court to be stumbling, but even I was so anxious that I was about to fall ill. Therefore, this time, I have brought out several of the most capable imperial doctors in the palace, no matter how expensive and rare medicinal materials are used, I must cure Chen Ge Lao's illness. ”

There was actually some truth in what she said.

After several recent tosses, Ye Tianhuai had to admit that in today's domestic and foreign difficulties, the court of Dajing really couldn't turn around without Chen Yuansi.

Yes, Ye Tianhuai had to come to visit with a smiling face, and she even thought about it, what is the warehouse case, what Chen Xueshen, although it is not enough to say that the past is not to blame, but it can be put on hold for the time being. As long as Chen Yuansi doesn't mess up, everything is easy to talk about.

But what she didn't expect was that Chen Yuansi was really sick.

After seeing it, several imperial doctors all said that Chen Ge Lao was indeed infected with wind and cold, and the high fever did not go away, coupled with the accumulation of work, he was sick and needed to recuperate.

Even Zhou Shouyi just shook his head silently in the face of Ye Tianhuai's inquiring gaze.

That's a lot of trouble.

If Chen Yuansi continues to take leave, not to mention the fortifications on the front line, even the grain and grass will probably become a problem.

At that time, it will not be a question of whether Chen Xueshen's crime can be cured, but whether there is a problem in the country of Dajing.

"How did Chen Ge always fall ill suddenly?" Ye Qianhuai asked.

This time, without waiting for the imperial doctor to reply, Chen Jinzhou preemptively said: "Your Majesty doesn't know, my father went to Gu Ge's old mansion that day, and when he came back, his face was not very good, and he had a high fever at night, and he was sick all of a sudden. ”
