C65 (2/2)

Before the last rune left his mouth, a shadow flew out from the carriage and struck the mouth of the blue guard who was speaking the last sentence. Everyone flipped a few times in the air under the eaves and laid in the darkness, not daring to make a sound.

Young Master is also good to Miss Wen.

They'd better hide.

The next morning.

”I beg the emperor to uphold justice for this old official!”

As the group of officials entered the Conference Hall, before everyone could stand properly, the Minister of Industry, Yang Jiancheng, had already strode forward and directly knelt in the middle of the hall. ”This old one's girls have always been pure self-love, yet yesterday, they were beaten to death as scumbags in Wang Yichang's residence! This must have been deliberately set up by someone! I ask that, on the account that this old subject has worked so hard for the sake of Great Yan for the greater half of his life, the Emperor repay my son's innocence! ”

Wang Yichang also stepped forward: ”Your Majesty... This subject is also a victim! ”

The two officials kneeled in front of the palace, the officials chimed in, ”This matter can't be blamed on Chief Minister. People were coming and going at the birthday banquet, who would have thought that such a thing would happen!?”

”Clearly, someone is deliberately framing us!”

There was a huge commotion in front of them.

The young official at the end of the list spoke in a low voice, ”A few years ago, the's favorite student had gone missing on his way to check out the Yun State Dam. Yesterday, Minister Yang's young miss died at the head assistant's house, there are many coincidences here.”

Hearing this person speak, the old official gave him a hard look. The young official immediately shut his mouth, but the surrounding group of officials who were about to step forward to speak hesitated and did not step forward again.

All of the ministers kneeling by Xie Heng's side turned around as though they were looking at something, and the young official standing at the end nodded at him.

The corners of the young man's lips curled up as he stood by the side of the wailing ministers without batting an eyelid.

There were too many civil servants in the Great Yan, other than that, the way in which people cried and argued was first-rate in terms of martial arts.

Zhao Yi sat on the dragon throne, feeling a headache coming on, and waved his hand: ”This matter shall be referred to Shuntian Hall, Ministry of Punishments, Supreme Court, and the Three Temples for questioning. As long as all three of your beloved officials have asked them about this, before the matter is brought to light, none of them will be required to discuss it anymore!”

Zhao Yi's case was filled with debts belonging to both Yang Jiancheng and Wang Yichang. In just one night, the faces of the two humerus ministers had been torn, causing the entire imperial court to be in turmoil.

Yang Shoufei knelt in front of the Old Emperor and cried all night. As soon as she went to the morning assembly, there was a huge commotion below. If things continued like this, there would be no difference between the Conference Hall and the market.

Yang Jiancheng and Wang Yichang still wanted to speak.

The Old Emperor opened his mouth and interrupted them: ”Is there anything else the various officials need to discuss?”

Yang Jiancheng and Wang Yichang were not on good terms so both of them entered the pavilion at the same time. It was just that Wang Yichang had become the head assistant long ago, so the two of them had maintained their skills on the surface for the past few years.

Now, even this layer of tranquility was about to be torn apart.

Old Emperor was clearly not willing to bring up the matter of Yang Qin again, but if he were to stand out and interrupt them when they were sleeping, Yang Jiancheng would definitely hold a grudge against him in the future.

Before anyone could stand up, the young man from the Scarlet official robe walked over, ”This subject, Xie Heng, wants to play.”

Old Emperor's eyelids jumped, ”Fellow Xie, please speak your mind.”

This youth was not someone who was easy to deal with.

Everyone held their breath, as the entire Conference Hall was completely silent.

Xie Heng stood in the middle of the hall and frowned: ”If this subject has Ministry of Revenue, I will deduct my salary!”

Without waiting for Old Emperor to speak.

The Ministry of Revenue Elder Li Qing was shocked, and immediately jumped out, ”General Xie, where did these words come from? Your salary has been fully paid! ”

Zhao Yi frowned and asked: ”Does Fellow Xie have any proof?”

Xie Heng said: ”Minister Yang's daughter is able to buy a shop with just a few tens of thousands of gold. It can be seen that her salary from Ministry of Revenue is extremely generous, but when I am here, why is it not even enough for me to support my family?”
