Chapter 32: Ice Release?

After going down, Lu Chen packed up his mood and took the lead in leaving the Taiji Hall and walking towards the Liuke Corridor.

Two successive dismissals failed, and they were self-defeating, which made the otherwise simple things a lot more troublesome, and now he had to organize his thoughts to see if there was any way or if he could find any opportunity to die.

As long as he makes a big mistake and gives those courtiers who don't like him a chance to attack him, so that the empress has nothing to say, he will have a chance to take off this obstructive official uniform.

For the time being, the best way to get dismissed is to work in this direction.

Lu Chen walked very fast, and some courtiers who wanted to talk to him could only look at his back as he walked away quickly, and put away his steps stupidly.

Soon, the courtiers rushed out, left the Taiji Hall and walked towards their respective offices, ready to start the day's official business.

Among the ministers, several high-ranking officials such as Qian Yiqian, the new secretary of the Criminal Department, Zheng Zhong, the left waiter, and Zhao Bingliang, the secretary of Dali Temple, walked forward together.

Looking at Lu Chen's distant figure, a trace of coldness suddenly flashed in Qian Yiqian's eyes.

"This son can't stay in the court for a long time, otherwise the court will never have peace!"

Hearing this, Zheng Zhong on the side cautiously glanced around, and then whispered: "Lord Shangshu, be quiet, if this is heard by those villains who want to cling to Lu Chen, tell Your Majesty that with Your Majesty's favor in Lu Chen now, maybe Long Yan will be furious......

"Humph!

For Zheng Zhong's kind persuasion, Qian Yiqian snorted coldly with disdain.

"The old man is upright, how can he be afraid of such a fortunate person?"

He continued with a straight face: "Besides, as the so-called rigidity must be broken, this son acts so fiercely, he doesn't know how to be flexible, one day he will be rejected by Shilin, and he will definitely cut himself off from His Majesty, but His Majesty is in the way of face, and he can't bear to openly blame such a seemingly loyal person, so he didn't say anything to blame." ”

"Qian Shangshu is reasonable!"

As soon as Qian Yiqian's words fell, Zhao Bingliang on the side bowed slightly, stroked his beard with one hand, and said slowly:

"Those who are officials should know how to adapt, and they need to be modest, and they must not be paranoid at one end, otherwise the blessings and disasters are unpredictable, how can they be called for a long time? And this son is loyal and good on the surface, but in fact he is stupid, not only has no talent, but also has no responsibility, and he is overwhelmed by the responsibility. ”

"Your Majesty kindly let him be promoted to an important position, but he desperately shirked it, for fear that his talent and learning would not be competent enough to cause jokes, and he had no noble character to dare to do anything, and he was simply a waste that the mud couldn't support the wall."

At this, his face was full of disdain, and then he said heavily:

"Although the imperial court is large, there is no place for such waste!"

Seeing that his immediate boss and the heroes of Dali Siqing, who are also in the judicial department, saw the same thing, Zheng Zhong thought for a while, and then felt that they were right, so he echoed:

"What Lord Shangshu said is extremely true, the lower officials are ashamed, and they will be afraid of such fortunate people like tigers."

Qian Yiqian waved his hand, casually encouraged this subordinate colleague, and then said: "It is our duty as a courtier to relieve the king's worries, and it is certainly inconvenient for Your Majesty to punish such people who seem to be loyal and righteous, but in fact cause great harm, we must do something to repay Your Majesty's grace!" ”

Seeing that his own Shangshu naturally said this, Zheng Zhong said without thinking: "Lord Shangshu already has a rule? ”

Qian Yiqian bowed his head, in response to his subordinates' questions, and then turned his gaze to Zhao Bingliang on the side, seeking approval with a face.

"What does Lord Zhao think?"

Zhao Bingliang, who thought that he was able to return to the court because of the empress's trust, pondered for a moment, and then Lao Cheng said solemnly:

"At this time, it is the time for His Majesty to change the yuan and reshape, it is not appropriate to make a big move directly, we will wait and wait for the opportunity, this son is so strong, it will be unpopular, and one day it will attract the dissatisfaction of many colleagues, and such a mediocre person will definitely make mistakes, once he makes a big mistake, it is the time for us to share the worries for Your Majesty."

Hearing this, Qian Yiqian suddenly narrowed his eyes, and the light in his eyes flickered.

"That's a great word! Lord Zhao is worthy of being the minister relied on by the first emperor during his reign, and he is really old, indeed, this son is young, he only knows how to act recklessly, without the slightest view of the overall situation, we just need to wait for the opportunity, and when he makes a mistake, we can easily get rid of this cancer that is a disaster for Your Majesty! ”

Zheng Zhong, the little brother, naturally echoed it.

At this time, Lu Chen, who had already walked to the Sixth Science Corridor, if he knew that there were already "good teammates" in the court who were dissatisfied with him, and were trying to prepare for the empress to expel him from the court, he would definitely be angry, shouting:

GKD,GKD!!

It's a pity that no matter how good he is, he doesn't have the ability to read minds, at this time he is sitting upright at his post, on the surface he looks like he is concentrating on official business, but in fact, he is constantly thinking about how to provoke the dissatisfaction of the empress and be hated by her.

Time passed minute by minute, and soon it was time for the courtiers to be on duty.

Lu Chen looked at the sky outside, and before he knew it, most of the day had passed like this.

Looking at the official document in front of him that although he had flipped through it several times, he didn't see a single word of the official document, Lu Chen directly closed it, and then got up directly and left Purple Pole City.

There was no word all the way, and soon, he returned to Xicheng.

And just as he turned into the alley and walked a few steps to the gate of the small courtyard, he heard a familiar shouting and scolding suddenly from the door.

"You profiteer is so unreasonable! Why, now that you know that your cousin is deeply trusted by Your Majesty, and you see that you have a bright future, you want to come to your cousin again, so you don't want to be cheeky?! ”

"I don't know who learned that my cousin offended the demon, so he came to my cousin in a hurry to repent of his marriage, and made a vow that if there was a little remorse, he would not die well, and now he is not afraid of five thunders in the sky?!"

It was the voice of cousin Luo Xiaoyu.

Lu Chen hurriedly walked forward, and before he could cross the last street corner, a sharp and arrogant woman's voice sounded after him.

"Stinky girl, you clean Miss Ben's mouth! Also, you'd better recognize your identity, you're just a poor relative that Lu Chen can't beat, and Miss Ben is the cousin and niece of Lord Su, the new official of the Criminal Department, and a relative of a high-ranking official! What's more, my cousin has always spoiled me and regarded Miss Ben as his own! ”

"Although Lu Chen is powerful, he is just a petty official from the seventh grade, as the so-called official is a big one, Lu Chen and my cousin are four levels behind! Maybe a few words from my cousin can make Lu Chen unable to survive or die! If you dare to be rude to Miss Ben again, believe it or not, Miss Ben will immediately go to her cousin to complain?! ”

Hearing this, Lu Chen couldn't help frowning, his eyes full of doubts.

Which one is the best? Dare to say that the official Lang of the Criminal Department can decide the life and death of the official?

Please, although it is from the seventh grade in the matter, even the seven grades are only in the matter, but when the emperor has real power and wants face, the power is terrifying!

How big is it?

Let's put it this way, the vast majority of the official documents in the six parts basically have to be approved in the matter before they can take effect, and even the official documents approved by the emperor's imperial pen have the right to reject and request correction.

Of course, the emperor is supreme, and the right to appoint and dismiss in the matter is tightly grasped in the hands of the emperor.

If the emperor insists on passing a certain decree, and he ignorably refuses to reject it, the emperor can change to someone who is willing to be obedient.

It's just that there will inevitably be some stains.

It is precisely because of this that Lu Chen refused to be promoted.

Not only because it is still in the cycle of judging rewards, if he is promoted, a bad guaranteed reward will be gone, but the high risk of this special official position itself is also his main consideration.

Even the emperor has to do this, and the authority of the six ministries in front of the matter can be imagined.

To put it bluntly, even a book and a second-grade high-ranking official have to be sold to a few thin noodles in the matter, and a mere five-grade Lang official is a fart in front of him!

How blind and uninformed does this have to be to tell such a laughable joke?

Thinking like this, Lu Chen's pace quickened a little under the trend of curiosity, and he soon passed through the street corner.

When he saw the figure in front of his house, his face instantly showed a look of understanding.

"It's this thing, no wonder......

I saw that at the gate of the small courtyard, in front of Luo Xiaoyu, a "big lady" dressed in silk and satin, but who looked five big and three thick, was crossing her waist with one hand, and her face full of horizontal flesh was spitting, making Luo Xiaoyu in front of her so angry that her face was flushed, but she didn't dare to refute because she was afraid of causing trouble to her cousin.

At a glance, Lu Chen recognized the identity of that "heavyweight" - his former fiancée, Li Baojin.

A spoiled daughter of a rich family.

And next to Li Baojin, there is also a middle-aged man who is also richly dressed and has a shiny face.

Who else can there be besides the former former future father-in-law Li Yuan?

'Is this brazen coming to the door to release the suspicion?' ’

Lu Chen's eyes narrowed, and he secretly said in his heart: It is worthy of being in business, it is really well-informed, and this cheek is really comparable to the city wall, tsk......

Thinking so, he walked straight over.

Li Baojin saw that Luo Xiaoyu's face was flushed by what he said, but he didn't dare to talk back, and he was proud, but Luo Xiaoyu's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Cousin, you're back!"

"Hmm."

Lu Chen nodded, then glanced at Li Baojin and Li Yuanwai with an indifferent face, and then walked inside.

"Xiao Yu, if someone comes to our house to spill in the future, you can just close the door, if the other party dares not to leave, you will report to the official and let the Luojing County Order deal with this matter, you don't have to waste time with this kind of person who disturbs the people for no reason."

Hearing this, although Luo Xiaoyu was a little worried that Lu Chen would directly offend the other party to death and cause trouble if he said this, he still obediently agreed.

"I see, cousin."
