Just when all the court officials thought that Su Juan had a mental problem today, the Right Censor-in-Chief stepped forward and shouted loudly, "Your Majesty! I have something important to report!"

The old emperor, who had goosebumps all over his body from Su Juan's flattery, suddenly felt like a savior had arrived. He coughed in a deep voice and asked, "What do you want to report?"

"I, an old minister, would like to report that Li Ren, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites, is not upright and is not kind in his official duties. He occupies a position of justice but seeks personal gain and accepts bribes!"

Su Juan interjected, "Disrupting the evaluation of important matters by scholars all over the world and disrupting the order of the court of the Great Jin Dynasty is a serious crime. It must be thoroughly investigated!"

[Among the 18 vice chancellors, there are several who are in cahoots with him! We must investigate them all!]

Many people looked at Su Juan with suspicion. When did this official start to care about these important court affairs?

The old emperor had a heavy face and his eyes were filled with anger. These bastards were so bold!

He immediately ordered Pingbo Hou to assist the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Personnel in thoroughly investigating the matter and find out how many officials were corrupt.

This matter involves a wide range of people. Many civil and military officials have scholars waiting to be appointed as officials in their families, and some of them have been sentenced to low rank and cannot enter the court.

The case of Li Ren is like a torn hole. As long as someone follows this hole to investigate, the hole will become bigger and bigger, and the people hiding behind it will be exposed.

King Han's eyes were dark and unclear. This Li Ren was really stupid!

Mei Shangshu of the Ministry of Personnel broke out in a cold sweat. What should he do?

Even after the court session, his steps were unsteady and he nearly fell several times. He stumbled into the carriage and said, "Let's go to Prince Jing's Mansion! Quickly!"

Su Juan almost escaped from the Golden Palace, walking very fast. Only when she got on the carriage did her tense heart finally relax. She patted her chest. It was terrible, too terrible.

Why can these people hear what they are thinking? Is there something wrong with the system? !

Su Juan collapsed in the carriage with a look of despair in her eyes. How many people could hear what she was saying in her heart? It couldn't be that everyone could hear it, right?

This shouldn't be possible, otherwise I wouldn't have discovered this only now.

Shit! This game is ruined again. Let’s just restart. There is no hope for this life.

...

At this time, Minister Mei of the Ministry of Personnel had already rushed to Prince Jing's Mansion and hurriedly found Song Qianfan, and Yu Ting was also there.

"Your Majesty has handed this matter over to Pingbo Hou to investigate, but this man is unyielding..."

"Sir, what should we do about this?"

He was so anxious that he broke out in a sweat. If this was investigated into him, then his position as the Minister of Personnel would be over.

Yu Ting frowned and looked at Song Qianfan, "Didn't you say that this matter was well arranged and there wouldn't be any problems?"

Song Qianfan looked unhappy, "I have indeed arranged everything..."

Yu Ting angrily scolded, "I have told you long ago that you should be cautious when hiring people. Look at that Li Ren! What is he doing now?"

Song Qianfan was extremely annoyed at this point. He never expected that just because of Li Ren, for a mere concubine, the whole situation would be messed up!

Now the emperor wants to conduct a thorough investigation, and it is too late to completely extricate oneself from this matter.

Mei Shangshu of the Ministry of Personnel was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. He looked at the two people in front of him and said, "Prince, Deputy Commander Yu, you have to save me!"

Yu Ting's eyes were cold and gloomy. "What's the hurry?"

"At this point, the only way to avoid being investigated is to do it thoroughly."

Hearing this, Song Qianfan suddenly clenched his fists and said, "I'll have someone take care of this."

It was impossible to kill Su Juan who was secretly protected by someone, but it was more than enough to kill a few court officials.

Yu Ting looked at him and reminded him again and again, "This matter must be done cleanly, without leaving any traces."

"I know." Song Qianfan was filled with murderous intent.

Minister Mei of the Ministry of Personnel shuddered. Those people were all colleagues in the court. They saw each other every day... Just kill them like that?

Seeing Song Qianfan being so cruel in front of him, he felt scared.

That night, the troops sent by Song Qianfan came back one after another to report that among the four people who should have been killed, only three were killed, and the other one did not return to the mansion at all, and no trace of him could be found.

At the same time, Su Juan was having dinner with Duke Ping, and Xie Xun was standing by, feeling a little reserved, fearing that he might reveal something.

He never thought that Su Juan had already confirmed that his thoughts had been leaked.

Anyone can expose this matter, but it must not be exposed from Young Master Xie, otherwise it will be too embarrassing. What if the old emperor questions him later?

No matter how hard your head is, you can't bend it.

After Su Juan came back, she locked herself in the house for the whole afternoon. With the idea of ​​breaking the jar, she decided to go on.

Although it is terrible to reveal one's true feelings, the people around him have not said anything about it until now. Even the old emperor has been keeping it to himself. It can be seen that these people have some concerns.

Maybe I can take advantage of this...

But in order to make good use of this, we must first figure out who can hear and who cannot.

During the meal at the Duke's Mansion, Su Juan was thinking about all sorts of things while eating, and she kept observing the reactions of the three people in front of her. When she saw that Duke Ping was about to take the last piece of pork elbow on the plate, Su Juan sighed at the right time:

[Oh, I really want to eat this last piece of pork elbow...]

Duke Ping's chopsticks were almost touching the elbow, but he suddenly turned around and picked up the vegetables on the side.

Su Juan raised her eyebrows, and Duke Ping could hear it.

[The Duke is so nice! ]

The next second, Xie Xun picked up the elbow, put it into his mouth, and ate it with relish, even though he was given a cold stare by Duke Ping.

Su Juan: “…” She actually really wanted to eat that piece of pork elbow.

[This Xie Xun really deserves a beating. ]

Xie Xun faced the old man's gaze and sighed in his heart, "There's nothing I can do about it. If I don't do this, won't everything be exposed?"

Su Juan looked at Shen Ruhui, [After a closer look, Shen Ruhui is pretty, not worse than Xie Xun.]

Xie Xun: Bullshit! I am number one in the world!

Duke Ping paused his chopsticks, his eyes fell on his niece's granddaughter, the corners of his mouth trembled, really...really like her?

Shen Ruhui was seen eating calmly without any reaction.

Su Juan continued to sigh, "Look at how tender his face is. If I could give him a kiss when he's drunk one day, that would be enough for my life."

With a "click", one of Duke Ping's chopsticks fell.

His old face was stiff, and he laughed dryly twice, "I didn't hold it firmly, I didn't hold it firmly..."

The servant next to him hurried forward to replace it with a new one.

Su Juan smiled, still looking at Shen Ruhui. The other party still looked calm, and didn't even lift his eyelids, which showed that he couldn't hear anything.

The servants in the Xie Mansion couldn't hear it either.

But Xie Xun...

Su Juan looked at Xie Xun with a smile, [You are pretending very well.]

Xie Xun buried his head in his food and pretended to be deaf; this meal was extremely difficult for him!
