The wine jug was empty at this time, and no one had the courage to refill Su Juan's glass, so Bai Ziling could only drink tea.
Su Juan sighed and talked to Bai Ziling in a random manner. Looking at Bai Ziling, she suddenly remembered, [Oh! Bai Ziling is the grandson of Wu Yuanhou! ]
Bai Ziling: “?” Didn’t I just tell her?
Everyone immediately looked at Su Juan. How could he be so drunk after just a few drinks?
[Wu Yuanhou is now the official in charge of evaluating the scholars of the world. I must get close to Bai Ziling! ]
The ministers were shocked. Although it was true, it was not a good thing to say such things.
Some people were also curious, what's the point of being close to someone like that? Could it be that this Yuanwailang also has some scholars to recommend?
Bai Ziling blinked his bright eyes and asked, "Haven't we always been close?"
The old emperor was suspicious. What was going on with Su Juan recently? She went to Prince Han's mansion and secretly tried to win over talented people. Now she even wanted to hook up with Marquis Wu Yuan?
She only knew a few scholars, who did she want to recommend?
[Maybe I can even say a few good words to that old playboy Xie Xun! ]
Xie Xun: “???!”
What an old dude!
I am in my prime, who are you calling old?
Some people almost laughed out loud, thinking that this official was going to recommend someone, and it turned out to be the son of Duke Pingguo.
There is no point in saying a few nice words to this gentleman. He has been visiting brothels every day and is already ruined. Even if Su Juan praises him to the sky, as long as he is not blind, he will not be biased.
The emperor shook his head repeatedly, thinking that she had some great ambitions, but it turned out that she was just doing it for her drinking buddies.
The Queen recalled how Su Juan had praised Xie Xun to the skies before. Could it be that this girl was going to praise Xie Xun in the same way?
Duke Ping was relieved. Even though he didn't know his own life experience, he was already taking care of his family. As expected, the people in the Xie family would never betray their families.
Wu Yuanhou subconsciously looked at the man from the Xie family. He was leaning there, drinking wine. His appearance was quite remarkable, but how could one judge people by their appearance?
It’s not right, it’s really not right.
Liu Miaoqing breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Ajuan had always been a simple-minded person. If someone else had said this, it would not be the same.
Bai Ziling tried to divert Su Juan's thoughts, "Sister Su, why was that gentleman taken away just now?"
Su Juan was determined to get close to Bai Ziling. When he spoke to her, she explained to him carefully, "It was the Minister of Justice, Lou, who gave the bribe to His Royal Highness the King of Han. His Royal Highness the King of Han gave it to Your Majesty. Now that it's been exposed, Your Majesty is going to investigate the Ministry of Justice thoroughly!"
Bai Ziling was surprised, "Did that gentleman make a big mistake?"
Su Juan nodded, "Yes, that thing is related to a murder case involving 38 people. Once the truth is revealed, Lord Lou will definitely lose his position as an official."
[Thirty-eight people, this is no small case. Not only will the old emperor not let him go, but the enemy will definitely take the opportunity to take advantage of him.]
Some people snorted and said, "adding insult to injury!" How could you say that? If Minister Lou had not accepted this gift, would there be this well?
Who can I blame if I can't control myself?
There were thirty-eight people in total. Fortunately, he had the courage to accept the gift.
[In fact, he himself knew that this thing could not be shown to others. If King Heng had not lost power and thought that King Han would have a chance to ascend the throne, and if he had not been anxious to curry favor with King Han, how could he have presented this thing at this time? ]
Suddenly everyone looked at King Han, even the old emperor squinted at him, hoping he would ascend the throne?
King Han had an unpleasant expression on his face. If you want to talk about Lou Shiye, just talk about Lou Shiye. Why are you bringing me into this?
[After all, he was going to give this thing to the future tyrant. Tsk, it’s nothing now.]
When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked. Once again, they heard the word "tyrant" from Su Juan's mouth. Everyone pricked up their ears and wanted to know more.
Su Juan remembered that after the death of King Han's family, Lou Shiye presented this blood coral to please the tyrant in order to save his own life.
If King Heng wasn't gone now and King Han seemed to have a sure win, how could this old fox take out the things?
But if he takes this thing out now, he will get himself into trouble, which is also retribution.
[After all, the old emperor is not a tyrant. How could he turn a blind eye to such a thing? He is unlike me...]
At this moment, Song Qianfan stepped forward and continued to offer gifts, raising his voice and interrupting Su Juan's thoughts.
"Your Majesty, I, your subject, also have a gift to present to you. I wish you happiness as vast as the East Sea, a long life, and a life as long as the heavens!"
When the things were presented, everyone immediately looked over there, and no one could pay attention to what Su Juan was thinking.
Su Juan also looked over and saw the palace servants pushing a huge object into the hall. It looked like a cage and was covered with a curtain. What was Song Qianfan fiddling with?
[I was wondering why this bastard has been so quiet lately, it turns out he's been up to something! ]
Xie Xun raised his eyebrows. When Su Juan mentioned Song Qianfan, he cursed him without missing a word.
Bai Ziling looked over curiously. He had heard of this Prince Jing before. He was said to have a very bad character and was very mean to Su Juan. He wanted to see what kind of person he was that made Su Juan hate him so much.
He stared for a long time, and finally waited until Song Qianfan turned sideways, and saw his appearance. He was white, but did not look very good.
He also has to hate anyone that Su Juan hates.
Song Qianfan had reached the point where he would ignore Su Juan's words unless they involved his own important matters.
As soon as his gift was presented and the curtain was lifted, it attracted everyone's attention. They saw a snow-white deer from head to toe, which looked very spiritual.
"Your Majesty, this fairy deer was found accidentally in the forest by a good friend of mine. Ancient texts record that when a king is filial, a white deer will appear. When a king is wise and benevolent, a white deer will also appear."
The Minister of Personnel immediately knelt down and shouted, "Your Majesty, the aura has transformed into a deer. This is a sign of good fortune!"
"The Immortal Deer has appeared in the world, which shows that Your Majesty is wise and the world is prosperous!"
All the ministers then stood up and knelt. White deer have always been a sign of good fortune in the Great Jin Dynasty and are very rare. However, Prince Jing was able to get one, which showed how much effort he had put into it.
Su Juan stared at the so-called fairy deer. [White deer have always been the embodiment of auspiciousness in the Jin Dynasty. Song Qianfan got such a white deer. This flattery really hit the old emperor's ass.]
The old emperor, who had been very fond of the white deer, now looked much less enthusiastic.
He immediately stopped smiling and looked at the deer. Is my butt so easy to pat?
"It is indeed a fairy deer. It is a good omen for the prosperity of the country. Prince Jing is thoughtful. I will give you a reward."
Although it was also a reward, his attitude was obviously a little duller than when he rewarded Song Qianhang just now.
Song Qianfan concealed his displeasure and knelt down to thank him.
Su Juan suddenly found it funny. [I laughed so hard. I thought the old emperor would like this fairy deer very much. After all, it is a sign of good fortune. Who wouldn't like it? But with this reaction, Song Qianfan must be so angry that he must die.]
