Capital!

The sky was slightly bright, and the officials lined up, and the fish were in the column.

It's just that when they saw the one standing at the front, many officials had a look of surprise on their faces.

Prime Minister An Cheng actually came.

Some time ago, Prime Minister An asked for leave from the court because he was unwell, and the saint also agreed.

Less than seven days have passed, and Prime Minister An's illness has healed?

In fact, all the officials knew in their hearts that Prime Minister An was not sick, and the reason why he was sick and rested at home was because there were too many twists and turns in the court to impeach Prime Minister An, and Prime Minister An chose to leave the court in order to show his innocence.

Now that Prime Minister An is back, many officials realize that today's court meeting is not simple.

A quarter of an hour later, under the shouts of the eunuchs, the palace gate opened, and hundreds of officials entered the court.

On the top of the main hall, the current Holy Emperor Shang Yuan sat on the dragon chair, and when he saw An Zisheng, Emperor Shang Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then a smile of relief appeared on his face.

When the hundreds of officials present saw Emperor Shang Yuan's expression, they all sighed in their hearts, the saint really trusts the prime minister, and with this alone, it is impossible for Prime Minister An to shake his position.

"An Xiang, is your body okay?"

Emperor Shang Yuan took the initiative to ask, and the officials were dumbfounded, especially those who tried to bring down An Zisheng, and they were even more bitter in their hearts.

Even if they really overthrow Prime Minister An, they are afraid that it will not take a few years to resurrect with the saint's affection for Prime Minister An.

"Back to the saint, the minister's body has not yet recovered, and he should continue to recuperate at home, but the day before yesterday I got a piece of news, and I was sad to hear it, but I had to go to the court to inform the saint."

"An Xiang has a complaint to sue, but it doesn't hurt to say it." Emperor Shang Yuan said with a smile.

An Zisheng nodded and walked out of the queue, and the eyes of the hundreds of officials on the scene all converged on him.

"Before the minister followed the saint to raise the army, he was pursued by the officers and soldiers of the previous dynasty, but fortunately he met a kind person to take him in, so he was able to survive, and the minister has also been in contact with this life-saving benefactor over the years, and he did not dare to hide it from the saint, this kind-hearted person is the owner of the Han firm."

On the dragon chair, Emperor Shang Yuan's eyes flashed with an inexplicable color, but the hundreds of officials in the audience had a voice of discussion.

Dahan Commercial Bank!

The officials present were no strangers to this trading house, one of the four major trading houses in the world, even in the capital, there were shops of the Dahan Commercial Bank, and many of the ceramic crystal and other utensils sold by the Dahan Commercial Bank were collected by these officials.

Unexpectedly, the proprietor of this Han firm actually knew Prime Minister An Cheng, and he also had a life-saving grace for Prime Minister An Cheng, so the Han Commercial Bank could develop so fast......

"Although the proprietor of the Dahan Commercial Bank is the benefactor of the minister, the minister is valued by the saint and entrusted with the position of prime minister, and does not dare to use his power for personal gain, and has not received any personal interests for the Dahan Commercial Bank, nor has he accepted a penny of silver or two property from the commercial bank, and the minister is not afraid of the saint sending someone to investigate."

"Why does An Xiang need to say this, he is naturally trustworthy to An Xiangzhen." Emperor Shang Yuan's words made many officials who wanted to prepare to attack An Zisheng silently give up again.

Yes, Prime Minister An said it himself, and the saint also said it, which means that no one can talk about this matter in the future.

"Thank you for your trust."

An Zisheng expressed his gratitude, and then said: "The proprietor of the Han Commercial Bank sent a letter to the minister yesterday, in which he mentioned that someone wanted to forcibly occupy his trading house, and the person who forcibly occupied it was a powerful person, and he was just an ordinary businessman, so he had no choice but to write a letter to the minister for help. ”

"Presumptuous! I said that officials are not allowed to compete with the people for profit, and I told me directly, who is the so-called powerful person? ”

Emperor Shang Yuan was furious, An Zisheng's eyes drooped, and he said: "The person who wants to occupy the Han Dynasty is Jiang Beiyu, the Marquis of Zhenwei. ”

Wow!

Emperor Shang Yuan's face sank, and the hundred officials were in an uproar.

What is the identity of Zhenweihou, the concubine of Princess Changning, the most beloved saint today, the son-in-law of the saint, and the disciple of the True Martial Palace.

You must know that whether it is this dynasty, the previous dynasty or even earlier dynasties, princesses rarely marry warriors, because if the royal family and warriors are combined, they are easy to be rejected and feared by martial arts circles.

In the whole world, the court rules over the people of the world, but does not include warriors and cultivators.

Martial artists have their own sects and territorial divisions, and the court is not allowed to interfere, if the children of the royal family marry a certain martial arts sect, it will inevitably cause the jealousy and dissatisfaction of other martial arts sects.

In order to maintain the rule, in order to maintain the peace of the world, the officials will also advise the emperor, and for the sake of Princess Changning, the saint would rather be feared by other martial arts sects, and also recruited Jiang Beiyu as a concubine, and was named the marquis of Zhenwei, which is enough to see the saint's love for Princess Changning.

However, the officials did not resolutely oppose it, in addition to the fact that the saint really loves Princess Changning, there is another reason that Jiang Beiyu is Princess Changning's life-saving benefactor.

The woman promised to save her life with her body, this is a good story, and the officials naturally don't want to oppose it too much, and this reason can also make other martial arts sects not have too much rejection of the court.

If An Xiang is the most trusted courtier of the saint, then Princess Changning is the most beloved child of the saint.

The officials couldn't figure out why Prime Minister An would bring this matter to the court, didn't it make it difficult for the saint to ride a horse.

As the most powerful courtier, shouldn't Prime Minister An report this matter to the saint in private?

After the uproar, the main hall began to become silent, and everyone's eyes wandered strangely on the saint and An Zisheng.

"Shengshang, originally this matter, the minister should have reported it to the Shengshang in private, after all, the identity of Zhenweihou is different, but because the identity of Zhenweihou is different, the minister did not dare to tell the Shengshang in private, so he had to say it in front of hundreds of officials in the court." An Zisheng was stunned: "Because the minister is afraid that the martial arts sect in the world will misunderstand the saint." ”

The martial arts sect in the world misunderstands the saint?

The officials were puzzled, what did Prime Minister An mean by this?

"An Xiang might as well speak bluntly." Emperor Shang Yuan said with a calm face.

"Zhenweihou plotted to seize the Dahan Commercial Bank, it was a conspiracy with the Qingzhou Zhenwu Palace, the owner of the Dahan Commercial Bank went to Qingzhou to discuss with Zhenweihou, and the road was not only pursued by the cavalry under the command of Zhenweihou, but also the disciples of the Zhenwudian were involved."

An Zisheng said word by word, and said it clearly, but the faces of the officials changed instantly.

"Zhenweihou colluded with the True Martial Palace?"

"Zhenwei Hou is already a disciple of the True Martial Palace, so it is also possible to collude with the True Martial Palace."

"How dare he do this?"

"How dare the True Martial Palace?"

The officials were angry, if the saint loved Princess Changning and chose Jiang Beiyu as his concubine, they could barely accept it, but Jiang Beiyu colluded with Zhenwu Palace, so it was unacceptable.

Compared with this matter, Jiang Beiyu's plot to seize the Dahan Commercial Bank is nothing, because this kind of thing has not been done by many people present.

The collusion between the royal family and the martial arts sect is a taboo in all dynasties.

This will shake the foundation of the country.

The colt also represents the royal family.

This taboo is a lesson learned for hundreds of thousands of years, there are many martial arts sects in the world, but even if there is a change of dynasty and many rebel armies, various martial arts sects will not intervene in it, at least on the surface, they will not show who they support, and at most send so many disciples into the army.

There was once a dynasty that relied on the full support of a martial arts sect to seize the world, and in order to repay the sect, the emperor who seized the world also named the sect as the first sect of martial arts.

It is conceivable how many martial arts sects have been dissatisfied with this move, and since the court has sealed the first sect in the world, it will inevitably give the corresponding territory, and these territories can only be taken from other martial arts sects.

Therefore, this move of the emperor caused dissatisfaction among other martial arts sects, which opposed the emperor one after another, and in less than three years, this newly established new dynasty collapsed again.

Since then, the uprisings of various dynasties will not have too deep ties with the martial arts sects, and the royal family will not marry with the martial arts sects in order to appease the hearts of the various martial arts sects.

The officials finally knew why Prime Minister An Cheng wanted to tell this matter in front of the court.

Because it is impossible to hide the collusion between Zhenweihou and Zhenwudian, once it is known by other martial arts sects, it will cause the suspicion of these sects at that time, which is not conducive to the stability of the world.

Prime Minister An put the matter at the court meeting and said it, and if the saint dealt with it impartially, these martial arts sects would not suspect that the saint had any ideas.

"An Xiang, is there any evidence?" Emperor Shang Yuan looked at An Zisheng and asked.

"Yes, the proprietor of the Dahan Commercial House was lucky to survive the pursuit, and found the correspondence between Zhenwei Hou and Zhenwu Hall from the Hou Mansion, and when the Hou Ye and Zhenwu Hall chased and killed the proprietor of the Dahan Commercial Bank, people from other commercial houses were present to testify."

An Zisheng replied quickly, but the expressions of the officials on the scene were a little strange when they listened to the answer.

Luckily survived.

The letter was found from the Hou Mansion.

It's not as simple as surviving.

This is directly killed to the hometown of Qingzhou Zhenweihou, and the hometown of Zhenweihou was copied.

Prime Minister An said it too modestly.

"If there is evidence, then this case will be handed over to you An Xiang, no matter who is involved, it will be handled in accordance with my Dashang law."

"Commandment."

An Zisheng nodded, and then said: "Holy Lord, the minister just forgot to report, Jiang Beiyu knew that he was guilty, and set himself on fire in the mansion, and the entire Zhenweihou Mansion was burned to ashes. ”

Emperor Shang Yuan was stunned for a moment, and asked, "What about Changning?" ”

"This minister doesn't know that the fire was too big, but I think the officials who came to Qingzhou will report the situation to the court soon."

Emperor Shang Yuan stared at An Zisheng for a while, but An Zisheng lowered his head with a guilty expression.

"There is Qingzhou's recital handed over to me as soon as possible, I am tired."

Emperor Shang Yuan stood up, and the hundred officials immediately made a gesture of congratulations, but as soon as Emperor Shang Yuan turned around, An Zisheng's voice came again.

"Holy Lord, what should I do with the Zhenwu Palace?"

"An Xiang, what do you think should be done?" Emperor Shang Yuan didn't look back and asked.

"According to the recommendation of the minister, in order to make the major martial arts sects feel that Jiang Beiyu and the True Martial Palace colluded with Jiang Beiyu's private behavior, I also asked the Holy Edict to announce all the martial arts sects in the world, and at the same time let the True Martial Arts Hall give an explanation, only in this way will the martial arts sects believe that the royal family and the True Martial Palace really have no connection."

Emperor Shang Yuan carried the ministers behind his back, and no one could see his expression clearly, but after a few breaths, Emperor Shang Yuan spoke: "According to what Xiang An said." ”

"Congratulations to the Holy One!"

Looking at the back of Emperor Shang Yuan's departure, An Zisheng's lowered face also flashed with a complicated color.

There were some things that he didn't believe, but what Lin Gongzi said in his letter, coupled with the actions and expressions of the saints he saw at the moment, made him believe Lin Gongzi's words.

Because the monarch and minister have known the saint too well for so many years, even if the saint can't see anything on the surface, some small actions expose the anger in the saint's heart at the moment.

Holy Lord, what you want is no longer the peace of the country and the people.
