Chu State, inside the Imperial Palace in the capital.

The battle report on the border was once again sent to the monarch of the state of Chu.

Hearing this, the monarch of Chu was defeated again, and the green tendons in front of his forehead twitched violently.

"I have been fighting for more than half a month, and I have fought several times, big and small, and I haven't won once! What the hell is going on? ”

In the face of Emperor Kangze's roar, the ministers did not dare to say anything, whoever spoke at this time would be pure cannon fodder, sent to spray.

"How many defenders are there over there now?"

"Back to the emperor, there are 100,000 defenders."

Emperor Kang Ze put his hands behind his back and paced two steps on the dragon chair before saying, "What about the southern country?" ”

"Your Majesty, the defenders on the southern side are similar to ours, and we haven't found any reinforcements from the southern country for the time being."

"The other side has not sent reinforcements, why can't you even win a battle? How did you make the soldiers and horses of the southern kingdom retreat one after another? ”

As soon as Emperor Kang Ze shouted out, no one dared to speak up, and no one present knew that when Chu was able to win again and again, it was all the credit of Xiao Yan, the king of Qi.

Can ...... now No one knows whether the King of Qi died in the Northern Wilderness.

Emperor Kang Ze naturally thought of it, but he didn't believe it, he had a huge Chu country, and he couldn't find a second fierce general like Xiao Yan.

"Lian Shen, you go, and then mobilize 20,000 soldiers and horses from the Western Camp to reinforce, and set off tomorrow, you must send the southern country back!"

In the main hall, a mighty military general came out to receive the order, "Weichen, you must live up to the emperor's trust." ”

After the next court, the courtiers went out of the palace gate one after another.

Xiao Jue walked behind Lian Shen, "General Lian." ”

Lian Shen's footsteps paused slightly, and he stopped and looked at Xiao Jue, "Your Highness." ”

Xiao Jue looked at Lian Shen with a heavy expression and said, "General Lian is going, and he must return from victory." ”

Lian Shen said solemnly with a tense face: "Your Highness, rest assured, the last general will definitely do his best." ”

Lian Shen was a deputy general who followed Xiao Shen before, and later stayed in Beijing to receive the reward, and stood in Xiao Jue's team earlier.

Xiao Jue's wishful thinking is good, as long as Lian Shen wins, he will take the opportunity to write to him to take over the 100,000 troops on the border, then he will have more key bargaining chips to seize the throne!

Xiao Jue is very confident, there are 20,000 more soldiers and horses on the Chu side, and it is not a matter at all if he wants to win more or less.

It's just that what he didn't expect, even Emperor Kang Ze, was that Nanguo actually broke through the border city of Chu and took a city in Chu.

This military report made Kang Zedi directly lift the dragon case.

"This is my good general!"

120,000 people against 100,000 people, and a city was directly killed, it is difficult for Emperor Kang Ze not to be angry!

At this time, an abrupt voice suddenly sounded in the silent hall.

"Before, the southern side sent an additional 200,000 troops, and Xiao Shen had less than 150,000 soldiers and horses, so he still defeated the two cities in the south...... Ay. ”

At that moment, the hall was so quiet that it could be heard that the needle had fallen to the ground.

All the ministers bowed their heads and pretended to be dead.

The young minister who opened his mouth didn't realize that he had said the wrong thing, and his long and narrow peach blossom eyes were full of confusion and doubt, "Your Majesty, Weichen...... Did you say the wrong thing? ”

"Bang!"

Emperor Wude smashed an inkstone, waved his big hand, turned around and walked out of the hall.

"Retreat from the ......"

As soon as Emperor Kang Ze left, the ministers all let out a heavy breath, the emperor was really ...... It's scary!

"Master Zhu, you're still too young."

An elderly and kind-faced minister walked up to Zhu Lin and shook his head, "Don't talk nonsense in the future, the emperor didn't punish you today, and next time, you may not have such good luck." ”

Zhu Lin looked instructed, "Thank you Lord Wang for reminding me, the next time the official will pay attention, it's just ...... I don't know what the lower official said wrong? ”

Lord Wang choked.

"Lord Zhu, the emperor asked you to go to the imperial study."

Lord Wang gave Zhu Lin a self-conscious look, shook his head, and walked away extremely quickly.

Zhu Lin looked flattered, what kind of place is the emperor's imperial study, it is the highland of the Chu domestic cabinet, and how can he, a small criminal department, go to.

Zhu Lin went to the imperial study with excitement.

Kang Zedi turned his back to the door and did not say a word for a long time.

It wasn't until Zhu Lin's legs were numb that Emperor Kang Ze looked back at him, "You handled the case of King Qi's treason before?" ”

Zhu Linxiu's white face was full of seriousness, "Back to the emperor, strictly speaking, this case is handled by the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, and the lower officials are responsible for some finishing chores." ”

"The official in charge of sending people to the Northern Wasteland, let him come to see me."

"Your Majesty, the official went back to his hometown after sending that errand."

"Then Xiao Ember was successfully sent to the Northern Wilderness by you?"

"Yes, it's out."

Kang Zedi twisted it again, "I said that I would overturn the case for Xiao Yan, find it out for me." ”

Zhu Lin was stunned for a moment, "Your Majesty, you want to overturn the case of the criminal minister Xiao Yan, isn't that case ironclad?" Where are the human and physical evidence? This case is not so easy to turn over. ”

The chief manager of Ouchi didn't know where to take out a dusty fold and handed it to Emperor Kangze, "Your Majesty, the fold is here." ”

Emperor Kang Ze threw the fold in front of Zhu Lin, "Check those people who played together, if there is no problem, let them go, let them go back to where they came from, and before they go back, let them go to the main hall to thank them." ”

Zhu Lin picked up the fold, "Yes, Weichen obeys the order." ”

"Stand down."

"Wechen retired."

Zhu Lin was very efficient, and in just three days, he found out the generals who jointly signed the letter, and made sure that they did not commit anything else except for asking the emperor to re-investigate Xiao Yan's case, and released them from the prison after three days.

On the day those generals were released, they knelt outside the main hall of the council, saying that they wanted to thank the emperor.

Emperor Kang Ze was benevolent, so he let them enter the temple.

Who knows, after these generals thanked him, they re-mentioned Xiao Yan's case in front of the civil and military officials, shouting that Xiao Yan was wronged.

Everyone waited for Emperor Kang Ze to be furious, but Emperor Kang Ze didn't say anything for a long time.

"Who decided the case in the first place?" Emperor Kang Ze opened his mouth quietly.

The Shangshu of the Criminal Department trembled and came out, "Your Majesty, the case of Xiao Yan's treason was closed in the hands of Wei Chen. ”

Emperor Kang Ze frowned, "The case that was decided in your hands, why are there still so many people shouting for Xiao Yan now, are you sure that the entire case has been investigated clearly?" Dare to use your head to vouch for it, Xiao Yan was not wronged? ”

Shangshu of the Criminal Department almost cried, and almost shouted, this case is the emperor's last decision!

Lord Shangshu felt aggrieved, but he didn't dare to say it.

"Your Majesty, Wechen must re-examine all the evidence and evidence...... Again, make sure. ”

"Since the case is suspicious, then Xiao Yan's charges are to be discussed, and I immediately sent a letter to Lian Shen, asking him to send someone to the Northern Wilderness to find Xiao Shen's whereabouts, and tell him that I will give him a chance to redeem his merits, and if he can repel the southern kingdom and recover the damaged city of the Chu state, I will allow him to return to the capital and reinstate the official."
