Things were completely different from what Su Juan had imagined, and everyone around cast congratulatory glances at Duke Ping.

The Minister of the Central Secretariat put his hand on his shoulder and whispered, "You know how powerful this girl is. If she tells it..."

That's very bad!

Pingguo had to hold back the two words he wanted to explain, and he felt really uncomfortable doing so.

The old emperor heard it when he came, and his ears perked up immediately, what is this second spring! ?

Who has a second spring?

I heard again that it was Duke Ping...

Oh, that's okay.

Any older civil or military official in the court could be the possibility, but Xie Qing is definitely not the one. With that kind of personality, how could he have a second spring?

It was obvious that Su Juan was talking nonsense again.

Su Juan quickly retreated to her corner. The first and second rank officials at the front were soon reporting some difficult matters that were difficult for them to decide. The atmosphere was quite serious. The people in the front were chattering so much that the people behind were basically silent and had no chance to report or speak.

She pricked up her ears and listened, sighing in her heart, "As expected of a high-ranking official, he speaks so confidently!"

Those first and second rank officials immediately held their heads high. They had fought in the officialdom for so many years, how could they not be tough?

[But why are they all old men? There are no younger, better-looking ones? ]

These words made the old men so angry that they blew their beards and glared: This young man is really bad at talking!

What an old man, he is clearly in the prime of his life!

[Hey, I don’t know when I can move up a level and stand forward...]

The old men snorted coldly. They never knew how to please their superiors. They were either scolding this or that all day long. They had almost offended everyone in the Ministry of Revenue. And yet they still expected to get promoted?

Only Minister Mo, who has been scolded so many times, still protects her like this.

[I stand in this back corner every day, alone in the sixth rank, and it is so lonely. ]

It is a great honor and blessing for you, a sixth-rank official, to be able to attend court. What else do you want?

After a while, the whole atmosphere of the court meeting changed. The old emperor coughed, and the ministers regained their composure.

Everyone looked at each other, and they were almost led astray by that naughty girl Su Juan again!

The Golden Palace is big, and Su Juan is sitting at the very back, so she is not afraid of being overheard even if she whispers a few words.

Scholar Yuan from the Hanlin Academy asked quietly, "Yuanwailang, I heard that the Crown Prince has been involved in a lawsuit recently and didn't come today. Is he okay?"

He thought that they were all colleagues, so he had to show some concern. After all, the prince did not come to court today. He heard that he had a cold, but who would believe it?

Su Juan waved her hand slightly, "It's okay."

The scholar from the Imperial Academy looked at her and couldn't help asking, "But I see you seem to be worried. Is there something serious going on?"

Su Juan waved her hand, "What big deal? It's okay."

[It would be great if he had something serious happen to him. It's because he has nothing serious happen to him that I'm so worried! ]

Bachelor of the Hanlin Academy: “…” I shouldn’t have bothered her so much.

All the ministers: “…” I am the first one who hopes that great things will happen to her husband!

Everyone looked at Prince Jing at the same time, only to see that he had a stern face and looked indifferent, which aroused sympathy from everyone.

They shook their heads and sighed for King Jing: What a misfortune for this family!

The old emperor coughed again, bringing the ministers back to their senses. How many times did I cough in the last court session?

[Why does the old emperor cough as soon as he goes to court? Could he have caught a cold? ]

The old emperor: “?”

[Huh, luckily I stood far away. I am a weak woman, I can’t stand so far forward like those old men, and I am not afraid of being infected by their diseased energy...]

The old emperor's forehead twitched violently: You are talking bullshit! I am fine!

You have caught a cold! Your whole family has caught a cold!

Several old men looked at each other, and at the same time took a step forward, as if this small step could keep them away from the disease.

The old emperor's pupils widened: Do you guys think that if you take small steps, I won't notice! ?

Several old men coughed lightly. After all, they were already very old and their bodies were not as good as those of young people. They couldn't afford to be infected with the disease.

Su Juan listened to the same trivial matter over and over again. It was actually that the youngest son of Lord Li provoked the grandson of Marquis Wu Yuan and was injured in the eye. As a result, on the way back home, Mr. Li was hit by the young master of the Bian family who was riding a horse on the street because of his eye injury and he could not dodge in time.

The young master of the Li family collapsed and committed suicide.

Lord Li immediately sued the grandson of Marquis Wu Yuan and the young master of the Bian family, demanding their lives.

But Marquis Wu Yuan had only one grandson, and the young master was the younger brother of the imperial concubine in the palace. Both sides tried to shirk responsibility, one blamed his eye injury, the other blamed his horse. The case was first in the hands of Qiu Chuchong of Jingzhao Prefecture, and then was transferred to the Dali Temple for retrial. Even after a month, the case has not yet been concluded.

She shook her head. [If it doesn't work out, then we can withdraw from the meeting. We can discuss this one issue for another month...]

The older officials agreed in their hearts. After all, it’s just a small matter. Is it really necessary to waste so much of everyone’s time?

They are old and can't stand standing for too long.

[It is because of these incompetent people that we have not been able to get it right after discussing it for so long. ]

As soon as these words came out, the Minister of Justice was furious: You are awesome! You have the ability! Come on!

Every day he offends this or that person, and all the royal relatives come to threaten the black hat on his head. Is it so easy for him to be a third-rank minister of the Ministry of Justice?

He was almost crying with anger. With such a trend in the court, he wanted to resign and go back to the countryside to farm. Whoever wanted to be the official could take the position!

The Minister of Justice was so resentful that even the old emperor could feel it.

This case is indeed difficult to handle. After all, the cause of the incident was that the Li family member was unreasonable and mocked the grandson of Wu Yuanhou for being a cripple all day long. He also insulted the grandson's deceased parents and elderly grandfather, which led to him being beaten in the eyes out of shame and anger, and then he ran into the Bian family member who was riding a horse.

Wu Yuanhou spent his entire life in military service, and his son and daughter-in-law all died in battle. This grandson's leg disease was caused by the war. He is now 78 years old, and he only has this one grandson. He just hoped that his grandson would live a healthy life. Who would have known that such a thing would happen now, and that his family would come to his house every day to demand compensation for his grandson's life, who already had a miserable fate.

To be honest, the young master of this family also felt wronged. He had just returned to the capital on horseback. It was clearly the boy from the Li family who bumped into him. He was beaten and his buttocks were bruised and bruised. He has not gotten out of bed yet. His whole family came to his house to apologize and even went to the palace to invite the imperial physician. As a result, the boy from the Li family committed suicide, and the Li family still wanted him to pay for his life.

Everyone must be treated fairly and justly.

The old emperor's head hurts, it's really hard to deal with...

At this time, Su Juan's voice sounded, "In my opinion, all three families should be punished, which is fair and just."

The ministers were surprised: "?"
