There is a saying that the king wants his ministers to die, and the ministers have to die.

But Cui Yan, he doesn't want to die, he wants to live!

Not long after, Cui Yan stepped into the imperial study, and immediately saluted respectfully and said, "Minister Cui Yan sees Your Majesty." ”

Quiet!

Deathly silent!

Emperor Qin lowered his head and did not speak.

Cui Yan knew this, and he didn't panic in his heart, no matter how panicked he was, he couldn't save his life, so it was better to calm down and play a game with His Majesty, maybe he could find a way out.

Now, his backing is not Emperor Qin, but Daomen, and Daomen still needs him.

Emperor Qin raised his head in surprise, he didn't know where Cui Yan's confidence came from, he was so indifferent, and after thinking about it, he suddenly realized.

It can be seen from the court discussion that Cui Yan is relying on the Daomen.

In other words, Cui Yan became the spokesperson of Daomen in the court.

Even so?

The corners of Qin Huang's mouth outlined a sneer, picked up the evidence presented by Jin Yiwei, threw it directly on the ground, and landed in front of Cui Yan.

"Look, look, what kind of bastard you've done. Emperor Qin slammed the table and said angrily.

Cui Yan had a bad premonition in his heart, he originally thought it was an early day, but now it seems that it is not like that.

For a while, the mood that was not panicked was finally chaotic.

If it is an incident that is early today, after all, it is a political disagreement, and it will not be an unforgivable crime, let alone put him to death.

But other things are not necessarily the same.

Cui Yan bent down, slowly picked up the paper, opened the paper uneasily, and looked at it carefully.

At the beginning, Cui Yan's face changed slightly, and the things recorded in it were all conclusive.

Here, I have to praise Jinyiwei's ability to do things.

To be honest, the court is unwilling to pursue it, otherwise few people in the court are clean.

By the time he was halfway through the reading, Cui Yan's face was as white as paper.

I haven't even finished reading it, because it no longer makes sense, and the first few are enough to make him die without a place to be buried.

Of these, most of them are for his beloved son.

I didn't expect it to come to this.

Cui Yan's body weakened and collapsed to the ground, and then he suddenly remembered, and quickly knelt on the ground and confessed: "Your Majesty forgives me, these things are all the old minister's confusion for a while."

The old minister was old and spoiled, and committed a monstrous disaster, and the old minister had to take action to settle it.

I hope Your Majesty will understand the old minister's heart to protect his son. ”

As he spoke, Cui Yan revealed his true feelings, after all, his only son had just died, and now he was framed again.

Emperor Qin snorted angrily and said, "According to what you say, every courtier who commits a crime will blame the dead for the matter, can you be lawless?" ”

"These things are one by one, but there is a mistake in one thing?" Qin Huang said coldly.

Cui Yan's heart sank to the bottom, and his face showed despair, knowing that he couldn't escape this catastrophe today.

didn't even explain, he knelt on the ground in a daze, waiting for the Daomen to come to the rescue.

If the Daomen is not saved, he will die, and if the Daomen comes, there may be a glimmer of life.

Cui Yan is destined to think too much, in this sensitive period, the Daomen can't even enter the palace, how to save Cui Yan.

After Cui Yanmenzi reported, the door was closed and did not come out.

In the early days of the dynasty, Daomen already knew that Cui Yan had used it up, so why spend a lot of effort to rescue him, the gains outweighed the losses.

On the other hand, they can't enter the palace, and they can't even see Emperor Qin's face in the Daomen, so they can't help it.

If the three major masters of the Dao Sect are here, they may give it a try.

Waiting for the right to wait, Cui Yan finally didn't wait for the arrival of the Daomen, and gave up in despair.

At this moment, he knew that he should not be gullible.

At this point, I don't know if it's despair or something else......

Cui Yan was stunned, and he didn't defend himself, his heart sank to the bottom, and there was no room to turn over.

"Your Majesty, no matter how you punish it, Weichen has no complaints, I don't know who raised the old minister, so that the old minister will die and understand. Cui Yan looked indifferent, knelt on the ground, grabbed the ground with his head, and asked respectfully.

Even if he dies, he will die to understand.

Emperor Qin pondered for a moment before he said, "This matter was presented by Jinyiwei, not a person. ”

Cui Yan nodded, he already knew who it was.

Ji Chuan!

Except for this person, he couldn't think of anyone who would be bored enough to flip through the Jinyi Guard's file.

Some of these things even go back years, and no one is so bored that much if they are not political opponents.

It was only now that Cui Yan regretted that he shouldn't have offended Ji Chuan, and it would have been good to let the Xuanyin faction make amends for his son's sins before, so why bother to pull Ji Chuan in?

However, it is too late to regret at this point.

Things are done, and there is no regret medicine in the world.

"The old minister thanked Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live. Cui Yan kowtowed violently, and after a long time, he raised his head, revealing a trace of blood on his forehead.

"The old minister has a reluctant request. Cui Yan's face was indifferent, as if he put life and death aside.

"What's the matter?" Emperor Qin frowned slightly, a guilty person, there are a lot of things.

"I hope Your Majesty can let go of Weichen's family, they are not guilty, they are all implicated by the old minister. ”

Speaking of this, Cui Yan's voice rarely showed a crying tone, and he looked at Emperor Qin pleadingly.

This is inevitable!

Emperor Qin did not refuse, nodded and said: "I have been diligent and diligent in Aiqing, and I should take this matter." ”

Immediately afterwards, without letting Cui Yan continue to speak, Emperor Qin said lightly: "Remove Cui Yan from the post of secretary of the military department and detain him in the heavenly prison pending trial." ”

After speaking, two armor soldiers walked into the imperial study, took Cui Yan's top flower feather off, and escorted him towards the prison.

Emperor Qin watched this scene quietly and shook his head, what happened to Cui Yan had nothing to do with him.

"My lord, Cui Yan is being detained in the prison, do you want to take a look?" Xu Yihai has been waiting, and as soon as he heard the news, he immediately came to report it.

Ji Chuan narrowed his eyes slightly, nodded and said, "Let's go, let's go see Cui Shangshu." ”

Prison!

Ji Chuan slowly walked into the prison, came to a cell, and looked at an old man sitting on the withered grass inside.

This person is Cui Yan!

It's just that after being removed from the flower feather, he is no longer in high spirits as before, and he is just an ordinary old man.

"What's the matter, Ji Qianhu came to see my joke?" Cui Yan squinted, looked at Ji Chuan who was standing outside the prison, and said lightly.

Ji Chuan shook his head and said with a smile: "Master Cui is joking, I'm not here to see you laughing." ”

Cui Yan said coldly: "Then what are you doing here?"

"I don't know if you remember that the lower official said before, everything has just begun, let's wait and see......"

Ji Chuan's voice was cold, and he said slowly.

Cui Yan smiled and said: "Ji Qianhu is in love, and he said that he didn't come to see Cui's jokes, I have fallen so far, do I have to admit that 'Cui lost'?"

Ji Chuan continued to shake his head and said, "Xia Guan said that if he didn't come to see the joke, he didn't. ”

Ji Chuan suddenly smiled and said: "Xiaguan is here to kill the adult, if you don't kill the adult with your own hands, Xiaguan is afraid that he will be exploited by the Daomen." ”
