The emperor's eyes were far-reaching, looking out of the door, as if thoughtful, and sighed.

"Yes, as a parent, you are willing to endure and pay for your children."

Xie Suzhi knelt down in his robe, and the emperor was shocked: "Xie Aiqing, what are you doing?" ”

Xie Suzhi lowered his head, his voice was cold, but it was tough and powerful.

"The second brother is inconvenient, the younger brother and sister are wrong, the minister is the eldest brother, I am willing to be punished on my behalf, and ask the emperor to surrender."

At this time, the civil and military officials were noisily discussing, and everyone had different opinions-

"Prime Minister, it's not your fault that this is not your fault, why are you bothering?"

"Hey, it's hard for you if something like this happens at home."

"But the witch Gu involves our general, and I still have to give an explanation."

Zhongshu Ling Qi heard it next to him and frowned slightly.

In this direction of the wind, why did he quickly turn against Xie Suzhi?

The emperor thought for a moment and said, "This way, small punishment and big commandment." ”

"Your brother and sister are indeed at fault, and for their own selfish desires, they used such a vicious method, and I can't punish them, and I can't justify them."

"I will punish her to introspect in prison for three months, during which time your family will not be allowed to visit, and let her remember the lesson."

"As for you, you will also be fined three months." The emperor looked at Xie Sudao.

Xie Suzhi kowtowed: "Thank you, Lord Longen." ”

Lord Qi was a little anxious: "Your Majesty, is such a punishment too light?" ”

The emperor's gaze swept over: "What else are you dissatisfied with?" ”

"Qi Aiqing, do you have a daughter at home? If you are the second master of the Xie family, what will you do? ”

Lord Qi argued: "If the minister's wife commits the mistake of witchcraft, the minister will only teach her a hard lesson and set an example for her daughter, don't learn from her mother!" ”

"Your Majesty, if this matter is not severely punished, outsiders will follow suit, how will you calm down the chaotic situation then?"

Mrs. Ye snorted coldly and stood up to refute Lord Qi.

"Qi Zhongshu, your words are wrong, the emperor is both rigid and soft, not only punished the Xie family, but also saved face."

"After all, in Prime Minister Xie's house, the eldest prince is leading troops to resist the enemy, and the second prince is diligent day and night, working hard in Dali Temple, just say that before Xie Erye was paralyzed, it was also a great war achievement and prestige."

"If the emperor only cares about punishment, but does not remember the past achievements, won't it make the people of the world chill?"

Lord Qi gritted his teeth, this old thing, came out to contradict his words again.

Since Ye Shangyi was punished by Concubine Rong and almost froze to death in the Zhaori Tower, Mrs. Ye aligned with her family, which can be called pressing step by step.

The two have different political views, like a needle against Maimang.

Lord Qi couldn't make sense with Mrs. Ye, so he turned his hand again and looked at the emperor sincerely.

"Your Majesty! If you think about mercy in everything, how to deter the officials and people below. ”

The Emperor smiled and stood up from the dragon chair and pointed to his seat.

"Qi Aiqing, what you said is really good, or, this position, for you to sit?"

Lord Qi's face turned pale, and he hurriedly knelt down: "The minister doesn't dare." ”

The emperor's expression changed drastically, Tie Qing was furious, and he waved away the music on the table with one palm.

"I've made up my mind, and you're still holding on to it, what kind of heart do you have?"

Lord Qi arched his hand and said bitterly about his loyalty: "The minister is just impartial and straightforward, the food of the king bears the worries of the king, and the witch curses the loyalty, if this matter is not handled well, how can the soldiers of the frontier charge into battle without regrets?" ”

"Be fair and outspoken? I see that you are a communiqué personal vendetta! In the early years, Prime Minister Xie Cheng impeached you for conniving at your subordinates to forcibly occupy the people's daughters, and I demoted you to a first-class official, and you remember it until now. ”

Lord Qi's eyes flashed: "Your Majesty, the minister is wronged." ”

The emperor was too lazy to talk nonsense: "I have already punished the Xie family, and no matter how much you entangle, it will be in vain, and it will be even more uninteresting." ”

"What's more, if Qi Aiqing really deals with it impartially, she should think about how to deal with your sister's fault!"

As soon as these words came out, Lord Qi trembled.

His sister-in-law? Concubine Rong? Concubine Rong made something wrong.

The emperor asked the great eunuch to hand the two secret letters from last night to Lord Qi.

"I originally wanted to leave your Qi family a face, but you have to be honest with me, since this is the case, you can take a good look for yourself!"

Lord Qi read the two secret letters, his face turned pale, and the cold sweat on his forehead rolled down.

The emperor's face was full of anger, and he instructed the chief eunuch: "You go, read it to the civil and military officials." ”

The great eunuch hurriedly took back the letter from Lord Qi.

"After investigation, the last time the eldest lady of the Ye family was in the palace, she accidentally lost the Buddhist scriptures copied by the Nine Emperor Princes, and it was because Concubine Rong's Niangniang Palace was guarded and stolen, just to blame Miss Ye."

The ministers were in an uproar, and Mrs. Ye glared angrily, and his white beard fell together.

"What?!"

Another secret letter is the testimony of this palace maid named Jindeng who finally confessed after being tortured.

But she refused to admit that she was instructed by Concubine Rong.

only said that he was saddened by Ye Shangyi once, and he held a grudge.

But the secret letter also said that when interrogating other palace people, it was found that Concubine Rong was aware of what Jinlan had done.

The emperor said with a gloomy face: "I might as well tell you that the reason why I was late in the morning was because I went to question Concubine Rong. ”

"She has always been kind and generous, how could she condone the palace maids below to do such a thing? But Concubine Rong said that the brocade lantern has served her for many years, and there are mistakes, but there are also hard work. ”

"She begged me to spare Jindeng's life, Qi Aiqing, you tell me, this palace maid, do I kill or not? If it is killed, will Concubine Rong be punished or not punished if she does not report it? ”

Master Qi was already in a cold sweat, his lips were trembling, and he couldn't speak.

"Minister, minister......"

"Say, why don't you say it? Didn't you argue with reason, and you had to let me give a cruel result in everything? Why is it my sister's turn, but I don't dare to say it! Emperor Long Wei was furious.

The ministers hurriedly shouted: "The emperor is angry." ”

Lord Qi also knelt on the ground, trembling and trembling.

He doesn't have Xie Suzhi's courage to arrest his younger siblings in prison.

For his sister Concubine Rong, Lord Qi just wants to cover up, let alone ask the emperor to punish him.

The emperor's tone was quiet: "I have demoted Concubine Rong to Concubine Rong and given the palace maid a brocade lantern, do you think it is enough?" ”

Lord Qi finally kowtowed, and cold sweat dripped onto the cyan stone bricks.

"Minister, let the emperor dispose of it."

The early dynasty was dispersed like this.

When Mrs. Ye passed by Lord Qi, who was unable to give up, he snorted heavily.

"Master Rong concubine, she is really compassionate, but only for her own people." Mrs. Ye threw up his sleeves and left.

Xie Suzhi was also about to leave, but was stopped by Lord Qi.

Lord Qi's face was hideous: "Prime Minister Xie, you already knew that I was going to report you this morning, right?" That secret letter is also your handwriting! ”

"You are so deep in your mind, I asked myself if I have not offended you, why do you want to bite tightly?"

Xie Suzhi's thin eyes were deep, and looking at his gaze was like looking at a tree, calm and waveless.

"You think too much, you're not that important, and it's worth dealing with you personally."

As he spoke, he walked away, and the angry Lord Qi almost jumped to his feet.

However, Xie Suzhi didn't lie, and found out that Concubine Rong really didn't do it.

It's Xie Ming'an.

At this time, news came from the eyeliner in the palace, and Xie Ming'an proudly went to the National Academy of Sciences and waited for Shen Ningning to get out of class.

As soon as he saw the little guy coming out of the Chinese Academy, he couldn't wait to step forward and share the news with her.

And raised his eyebrows, his thin lips hooked up a cold smile: "I said, as long as I want to find out, I can find out." ”

"What's the matter, now you believe what I say, who is more powerful than my eldest brother?"
