Pretending to be jealous in the arms of Dali Temple

At the same time, in the government office of Tongshan Prefecture.

Lord Wu'an sat in the middle of the inner hall, staring at Su Jizhi with a dark face.

"Thank you, Lord Hou, for making this special trip. The weather is so hot that Su is terrified."

"Since you are panicked, you should be obedient. This old man was born as a military general, and I can't stand the awkwardness of your civil servants. Tell me, what do you think?"

In the court hall, Su Jizhi has always been alone and not close to others.

During his tenure as Minister of the Dali Temple, he enforced the law impartially and never watched people order dishes.

He knew that many people in the court did not like him.

He is like a stone, sitting firmly in the fair position of Daqi's law, and he will never play favoritism or cheat.

As a result, many people were offended, and at the same time, some people were respected.

Wu Anhou is one of them.

The old man is over seventy-seven years old, and he is upright, and he is the only person in the court who dares to criticize the emperor.

Now he came from the capital and sat here just to ask him for an answer.

Su Jizhi was indeed uneasy.

This uneasiness is not because of awe of power, but because Marquis Wu'an can come to Tongshan mansion in person for the emperor.

"Master Hou, Su's relegation to Tongshan Mansion is an order of the emperor, and the imperial decree cannot be violated."

"Don't use these excuses to prevaricate me, the imperial decree must not be violated? Then the emperor ordered you to return to Beijing, why didn't you obey the decree?"

Su Jizhi: "..."

"Don't say I don't know what you think? Because I have experienced these things, you must think that you have devoted yourself to the court. Why did the emperor deny you in the end?"

The old man took a sip of tea and said quietly; "The emperor is the sky, and we are ministers. How can a minister be angry with the emperor? The emperor demoted you because you made him lose face. Does it need to be said?"

Su Jizhi was speechless.

"Now the emperor asks me to intervene, and you still refuse? Do you still treat me with this attitude?"

Just as Su Jizhi was about to speak, he was interrupted by Marquis Wu'an: "I know what you want to say, it's nothing more than killing the nine clans, and now I'm going to ask you, you are an imperial official, should you be loyal to the emperor?"

"should."

"The emperor demoted you, are you angry?"

Seeing that Su Jizhi was about to drop his words again, the old man tapped the ground with his cane, "Be honest."

"I do have an idea."

The old man smiled, "This is the truth. I love to hear it. I think that when I was in my 20s, I followed the emperor to make peace with the emperor. At that time, I did a lot of hard work. But when I returned to Beijing to discuss meritorious deeds, the emperor ignored me. I am so angry." Ah, I lost my temper just like you."

Su Jizhi wanted to say, I didn't lose my temper, I proposed to change the law and was rejected by the emperor, and he demoted me because he was unhappy, what's the reason?
Marquis Wu An continued: "Thinking about it now, the emperor has the emperor's plan to sit there. Take the Zhujiu family as an example. Did the emperor not think about abolishing it? He also thought about it, but actually doing it is not as simple as a decision. "

Su Jizhi's attitude was sincere, and Marquis Wu'an gradually softened his tone.

After thinking for a moment, the old man knocked on his hand again, and said solemnly: "Take the old man leveling the border as an example. If we don't cut the weeds and eradicate the roots, even a small force will come back to life and grow gradually. The people on the border are destitute and forced to leave their homes. In this case, I think it is necessary to cut off the alien forces and restore peace to the people, what is wrong with that?"

"That's true, but it shouldn't be generalized. I'll just ask Lord Hou, how did the daughters of criminal officials in the Jiaofang Division come from?"

Marquis Wu'an was speechless for a moment.

"So Su just proposed this idea. The emperor can take a long-term view. Changing the law also means that the emperor really wants to punish criminals. Thinking about it this way, I still think I am not wrong."

The old man watched Su Jizhi straighten up proudly, with a smile on his face.

"You are right, you are right, the emperor was impulsive, and now he regrets it, and wants you to return to Dali Temple, will you return?"

The old man spoke bluntly, Su Jizhi didn't know how to answer.

"Go back. You are a rare talent in Daqi. It is the emperor's loss to be trapped in Tongshan mansion like this. It is not easy for the emperor. Didn't he compromise with you by sending me?"

The old man said every word in Su Ji's heart.

"I went to Dali Temple yesterday, and the case files piled up like a mountain. When you left, that Miao Hong also ran away with you. Dali Temple became a mess. Do you still want to hide here and watch Daqi being destroyed in your hands?"

"Master Hou is serious."

"That's what I think, Tangtang Daqi, the position of Dali Temple Minister has been vacant for three months, do you think it's appropriate? The person who should be executed after autumn can eat in prison with peace of mind, and still have to support him, who should be arrested People are at ease now, because the case has not been solved yet, Su Jizhi, this old man is heartbroken."

Su Ji's heart ached too.

He never knew that Marquis Wu An was so eloquent.

In his impression, Lord Hou was a military general, a big boss, and he never thought that he would persuade others, and every sentence would pierce his heart.

"How is it? The old man has said so much, can you hear it in your heart?"

Su Jizhi nodded.

"That's how it should be. The emperor told me to come to you. Although he didn't mention the matter of punishing the nine clans, in my opinion, the emperor is already thinking about it. Don't be in a hurry, return to Beijing as soon as possible to resume your job, and settle the mountain of cases."

Fearing that this instruction was not strong enough, Marquis Wu An continued, "You have been away for more than three months, Mr. Yang of the Ministry of Justice has been very busy, and he appreciates you the most. You can't let the old man get sick from exhaustion, can you?"

There was a smile in the corner of Su Jizhi's eyes.

"Look, this is the Su Jizhi I know, that's all right, it's settled."

Marquis Wu An looked at the sky, and his tone was beyond doubt, "Just today, you go back to Beijing to report to the emperor, and return to Beijing as soon as possible."

Sending Marquis Wu An off, Su Jizhi stood in the courtyard listening to the cicadas singing, feeling a little dazed.

When he returns to Beijing, what will Wan Yan do?
When Miao Hong heard that Marquis Wu An had left, he quickly ran to Su Jizhi, "Master Su, what is Marquis Wu An looking for?"

"The emperor asked me to go back to Dali Temple."

Miao Hong was startled, and said this again, this time the emperor sent Marquis Wu An to deliver the message.

"What do you plan to do, my lord?"

Miao Hong noticed that Su Jizhi's expression moved slightly, which was completely different from the previous few times when he talked about returning to Beijing.

"Your Excellency, are you going to go back?"

Su Jizhi nodded, "The cases in Dali Temple are piled up like a mountain. These four words deeply hurt me."

Miao Hong grinned happily, "Tell your lord, the directors of our Dali Temple have scolded people a long time ago."

Su Jizhi raised his eyes, "Call me?"

Miao Hong giggled, "How dare you scold me? Of course it's because there are so many cases, no one can take the lead."

It's easy for Su Jizhi to let go of his worries, as long as he doesn't get entangled with the Emperor about the Zhu Jiu Clan, it's actually not that difficult to go back.

But Miao Hong thought of one thing, what should Lu Mingyu do?What about Wanyan?
Su Jizhi seemed to have thought of what Miao Hong was thinking, and walked towards the stables, "I'm going to Beijing now, try to come back before the hour of the day, don't tell me about Wanyan's place, and it's the same with you here, and make plans when I come back. "

Su Jizhi made such an arrangement, but Miao Hong had his own ideas.

Ever since he rescued Lu Mingyu from the cellar, he found that he had a crush on her.

In this case, Miao Hong didn't want to miss the marriage.

Back to Beijing?

Miss Lu can of course follow, isn't it the same to go to the capital to work?
In this case, he would go to Penglai Inn and ask Lu Mingyu about his plans. He didn't want to be a boring gourd.
