Chapter 38 The coffin lid can't be closed



Meng Wei quickly walked up to Yu Jiuchen and saw that he seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Su Changzhao said tactfully, "I have already finished reviewing the documents, so I will not disturb Your Majesty any more. I will take my leave now."

When Yu Jiuchen heard that she was leaving, he felt reluctant, but he finally nodded and said with a gentle smile: "Okay."

After stepping out, Li Xing immediately appeared beside Su Changzhao.

Su Changzhao knew him well, and seeing that there was something hidden between his brows, he asked directly, "What happened?"

Li Xing reported expressionlessly: "The spy reported that the Minister of Personnel Xu Daichou and other ministers are rushing to the imperial study."

"Oh? Are you coming for me?" Su Changzhao drew out the folding fan from his waist and waved it casually.

Because if it had nothing to do with her, Li Xing wouldn't have this attitude.

Li Xing had admiration in his eyes, but he still said respectfully: "Your Excellency is as good as a god. Xu Daichou and others want to denounce you, saying that you... you..."

"Tell me quickly, what storms and waves have I not seen, my Lord?"

Li Xing pursed his lips, then said neatly: "They say that you seduced the king and raped the harem..."

"Wait, doesn't 'Charming the King' mean that the king and His Majesty have an affair? This is nothing new. Since it is asserted that the king likes men, why is there a harem?"

"Someone has accused you of having an affair with a concubine in the harem."

Speaking of concubines, Su Changzhao could only think of one person.

She immediately sensed something was wrong: "Is this person Fu Ningshuang?"

Li Xing nodded.

Su Changzhao paused while fanning himself and immediately put the fan away. He no longer had his usual relaxed and carefree demeanor.

Li Xing couldn't help but ask: "Does the lord need to hide for a while?"

In the past, Su Changzhao never got involved in these messy things, not because he was afraid, but because he found it troublesome.

Looking around the entire court and the country, no one can touch the Supervisory Council. Even if Su Changzhao does not show up, those people can't do anything to her.

But what Su Changzhao is thinking about now is——

If this matter involves Fu Ningshuang, it proves that it is because I have been too close to her during this period of time.

Compared with Xiao Qinsu and Tang Fengjian, Fu Ningshuang is indeed easier to control.

The original owner had made countless enemies, and Su Changzhao had long been mentally prepared to face attacks and plots from all walks of life.

But it was obvious that Fu Ningshuang was dragged into this and that because of her.

If she 'avoided' it, Fu Ningshuang would be pushed to the forefront.

Fu Ningshuang has no power and no influence. As a woman, she does not receive the emperor's favor. How can she escape unscathed from those sharp-tongued court officials?

Once her reputation is ruined, death is the only thing that awaits her.

The key is that her death will definitely affect the main storyline and will also be very unfavorable to Yu Jiuchen.

Su Changzhao tapped the fan head against his palm again and again, thinking and analyzing.

As soon as Li Xing finished speaking, she paused: "Avoid? I want to see what tricks these people can play."

at the same time.

In the imperial study, Meng Wei also reported the same thing to Yu Jiuchen.

Yu Jiuchen was just thinking, fortunately Su Changzhao had left.

These fictitious things were nothing but tricks played by those court officials who claimed to be loyal and righteous.

As long as no substantial evidence is produced, it will be just like a clown's tricks, all fake and will soon disappear if ignored.

Who would have thought that the next moment Su Changzhao came back again.

Looking at the stunning figure in black python robes who strode in, Yu Jiuchen was stunned for a moment, then a gentle smile appeared on his face: "Chang Mo, why are you turning back?"

Su Changzhao's peach eyes curved and he also smiled: "After I left, I felt thirsty, so I thought of coming back to ask Your Majesty for a cup of tea."

[If I leave, how will you handle so many people coming by yourself? ]

Yu Jiuchen: “…”

It seems she got the message too.

She came back for me again.

Just as Su Changzhao strode to her seat to pour herself tea, Meng Wei wanted to help her, but was stopped by her.

"No problem, I will do it myself."

Meng Wei then pushed it aside.

But when Su Changzhao had just taken two sips, there was a noise outside the door.

Peach eyes turned sideways: [Here it comes! ]

Soon, a group of court officials came to the imperial study with permission.

When they saw Su Changzhao was there, a few timid ones immediately showed fear on their faces.

But under the leadership of several brave courtiers, they still did not stop.

The group came before Yu Jiuchen and first saluted respectfully. Then, a censor named Cai Xujiang took the lead in presenting a memorial and stating their purpose.

Su Changzhao listened to him chattering on and on, and the more he talked, the more outrageous it became.

"Wait, Mr. Cai, you just said that 'someone from the Supervisory Council hit a passerby to death on horseback while investigating a case'. It seems to have happened last year, right?"

Lord Cai was interrupted by Su Changzhao, and he snorted coldly, "We are here to see your majesty to sue you for your numerous misdeeds. Even though it has been a long time, justice may be late, but it will never be absent!"

【puff!】

Hearing this familiar line, Su Changzhao almost felt embarrassed.

[It's obvious that the dead author wrote these lines. 】

Seeing that everyone else was nodding and applauding Cai Xujiang's passionate speech.

Su Changzhao said calmly: "This is not right. It was not me who killed someone on horseback. At most, it can be considered that my rule is not strict, but it cannot be considered a bad deed." She smiled.

"What's more, accidents happen from time to time. We, the Supervisory Commission, also acknowledged the incident and did not shirk our responsibility." He stopped smiling and said, "Afterwards, we gave the victim's family a lot of condolence money and land as compensation, and the victim accepted it.

Now that Lord Cai has brought up the old matter again, why do I feel that you are just making up the numbers? "

"You..." Cai Xujiang couldn't hold back his pride anymore.

"Or is it that Master Cai has no evidence at all and is just making up stories?"

"..." Cai Xujiang's face looked grim.

"Since Lord Cai is silent, does that mean he is admitting that he is framing me, huh?"

So awesome!

Everyone present admired Su Changzhao's eloquence.

After a few rounds of this, Cai Xujiang, who was known as the "ghost debater", was rendered speechless.

However, framing a high-ranking official in the imperial court is a serious crime.

Cai Xujiang immediately broke out in a cold sweat: "I...I didn't! Your Majesty, please understand!"

Only Yu Jiuchen could hear the proud words in Su Changzhao's heart at this moment.

[You are still showing off at your age. Don’t you know that I have been a great debater in school since high school? If you want to debate with me, I’m afraid you will be buried in your coffin when you go back.]

Yu Jiuchen smiled in his heart: Is this the reason why you didn’t leave?

"Okay, since it is a misunderstanding, I will act as a middleman and let today's matter fall by the wayside. What do you think, my dear ministers?" Yu Jiuchen said in a gentle voice.

Cai Xujiang saw that today's trip would be fooled by the king and the minister opposite with just a few words, and a big matter would be turned into a small matter.

Then wouldn’t they have come here for nothing?

He hasn't revealed his cards yet. The key is that there's no guarantee that Su Changzhao won't take revenge later. This trip is bound to yield some gains!

"Your Majesty!! I have something else to report!"

Su Changzhao thought to himself: [Are we finally getting to the point? ]
