At this moment, everyone's eyes were all focused on the thin man who suddenly walked out of the train, and even the outline of his figure showed a bit of poverty.

It was Pei Xie, an old official who had been exiled in the south before and returned to Daxing a few days ago, and was restored to his original post.

Shang Ruyi has been well-known to him for a long time. This Dr. Zuo Guanglu, regardless of his appearance and temperament, even the melancholy of worrying about the country and the people exuding from his brows, is exactly the same as Shen Shiyan, but his hair is more gray, his face has more wrinkles, and his back is a little bent. Obviously, more than a year of exile has left indelible marks on him.

As soon as he saw him, Chu Chengfei's small face immediately had a trace of gloom, and the faces of all the ministers showed different expressions.

I saw Pei Shi standing in the center of the hall, raising his hand to salute Chu Chengfei, but before he could speak, Chu Chengfei frowned and said displeasedly: "Master Pei, I just asked for a long time if there was anyone playing, and you didn't speak. What are you talking about at this time? Go down."

"His Majesty,"

Pei Xie didn't change his face, and even straightened his stooped back a little more, and said proudly: "The old minister didn't speak just now, he was considering his words, because-the old minister must be careful, don't fall into the same crime as Zhi Lilang."

As soon as the word "Zhi Li Lang" was heard, there was another uproar in the court.

Even Yu Wenyuan looked at him in surprise.

Chu Chengfei immediately said in displeasure: "This person is alarmist and disruptive. Thinking about it, Mr. Pei should not be like this kind of person to deceive the king. You should go down."

After speaking, he waved his hand.

But Pei Xie still stood still, and said: "The old minister has been thinking for a long time, and he still speaks this way, because the old minister has decided that even if he ends up with the same result as Zhi Lilang today, he must finish his words. As long as he finishes these words, even if His Majesty puts the old minister in prison and beheads him for public display, the veteran will have no regrets!"

"...!"

As soon as he heard this, he knew that he was going to risk his life to admonish him again.

Chu Chengfei's small face was almost wrinkled—his father, the emperor Chu Yang, hated these courtiers who made outspoken words the most. However, his willfulness had enough authority to support him, but Chu Chengfei was different from Chu Yang.

But at this moment, after hearing the words "Zhi Lilang", Yu Wenyuan stood still, even his eyelids drooped.

Obviously not going to speak.

Chu Chengfei was a little flustered, but there was no time to say anything at this time, Pei Shi had already stepped forward, and said to the panic-stricken emperor, "Your Majesty, a few days ago, your Majesty sent him to prison because of Zhi Li Lang's advice. This humble minister is thinking hard, but I can't explain it—Your Majesty summoned him into the palace to consult him about the past years, and Zhi Li Lang has already told him, why did he suffer such a disaster."

When these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.

Although this incident has already caused a great uproar, some knew the inside story and some did not, but no one expected that Pei Shirt would tear open the lantern paper and tell everything.

Chu Chengfei's face immediately changed, but he was still a child after all. Being questioned like this, not only could he not think of how to respond, but also had an instinctive fear. And Pei Shi didn't wait for him to speak, and continued: "I often heard that a virtuous ruler is an upright minister, and an upright minister who commits crimes is not a virtuous ruler."

"..."

"Your Majesty, if what Zhi Lilang said is reasonable, Your Majesty should choose to follow it, if—"

"Master Pei!"

A voice with obvious anger interrupted Pei Shi's words, and everyone looked at the slim and charming figure again in astonishment. Chu Ruoyan stood up with anger on her face, and said to Pei Shi: "As Dr. Zuo Guanglu, why are you so ignorant? If Zhi Lilang's words are justified, will His Majesty put him in prison? It's because of his alarmist talk, you are still speaking for him?"

Pei Shi immediately bowed to her: "His Royal Highness, the old minister is not speaking for Zhi Lilang."

"Then what are you doing?"

"The old minister is complaining for him!"

These words were not only the response of the court, but even obviously had the meaning of confrontation. The surrounding officials could not help but let out a low voice, and Shang Ruyi knelt on the ground, her heartbeat became heavy like thunder rolling above her head.

At this time, a hand reached out and grabbed her arm, pulling her up.

Looking back, it was Yu Wenye, who calmly walked out of the train and stood beside him, but at this moment he didn't say anything, and only looked at Pei shirt quietly.

He is-

Shang Ruyi looked at him, then at Pei Shirt, and suddenly understood.

These days, although he has been angry, but when he thought about it carefully, he was just angry. He didn’t seem to have done anything except take himself to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, but this obviously didn’t seem to be his personality and style. This matter was not only related to the future of Yuwen’s family, but more deeply related to his future. How could he really let it go and let himself and Yu Wenyuan be the masters?
Pei Xie's family has long had a deep friendship with him, and Pei Xie has personally experienced Chu Chengfei's punishment of Shen Shiyan a few days ago. He knows the ins and outs best, and he is the only one who is most effective at this moment.

"Is it wrong?"

These three words made Chu Ruoyan even more angry, and said fiercely: "You know, he is bullying the monarch by lying in his mouth!" At this point, Chu Ruoyan's eyes turned cold, and suddenly said: "You and Shen Shiyan are like raccoons in the first place, and they were once exiled to Lingnan by criminals who deceived the emperor. "

Speaking of this, she gritted her teeth and said, "You guys are all rebellious officials and thieves who bully the king!"

Her words immediately made everyone change their faces in fright.

You know, Shen Shiyan was convicted because of deceiving the emperor, and now that the eldest princess has pinned this crime on Pei shirt, is it possible that he should be punished as well?

What made everyone even more astonished was that although this eldest princess was favored, since she was carried into the court by Chu Yang when she was a child, and she was so frightened that she cried loudly, she has never participated in any affairs of the court. She is just a favored and noble eldest princess.

But I didn't expect that she would stand in the hall and talk eloquently at this time, and even if she said something, she would convict Pei Xie!

Shang Ruyi was a little anxious, and subconsciously took a step forward to speak.

But a heavy force on his arm immediately pulled her back, and when he turned his head, it was Yu Wenye, who shook his head calmly at her.

"...?"

What does it mean?
Just when Shang Ruyi was a little stunned, Pei Xie also recovered from the shock brought by Chu Ruoyan's last words. He looked at the eldest princess, smiled slightly, and said, "Yes, the word 'poor' in Lang Zhili's mouth is to deceive the emperor, but he would rather risk his life to say this word. What is it for?"

"..."

"Your Majesty the Emperor, Your Highness the Eldest Princess, don't you think that at all?"

What he said seems to have retreated a bit, but everyone knows that it is an act of retreating to advance, more like a step back half a step to accumulate strength when a person is about to reunite.

Feeling this, Chu Ruoyan's face suddenly changed!
Not only did her face change, but everyone in the hall also almost held their breath.

In this somewhat suffocating silence, Pei Xie has slowly said: "The Daye Dynasty has gone through 28 years of Guozuo, splitting the Turks in the north, flattening Jiangdu in the south, forcing Gouli in the east, establishing Dunhuang in the west, spreading Enze to the world, and spreading culture and teaching to the whole world. This is a great achievement that has not been seen in a hundred years. It is a great achievement that has not been seen in a century. It is in the name of Daye that it deserves its name."

"..."

"However, the way of heaven is impermanent, and the cycle of blessings and fortunes."

"..."

"In today's Daye dynasty, wars are raging, the people are struggling to live, Luoyang has fallen, Jiangdu is divided, and Xue Xian's army is in the west. The Turks in the north are already watching. The people here are suffering like a tiger, and the country is in danger! Your Majesty does not want to restore the old land, revive the mountains and rivers, and just play and play every day. Is this worthy of Emperor Wen, worthy of the first emperor, and even more worthy of the word "Daye"?"

"..."

"Therefore, there was an ominous omen from the sky, and the Bo star appeared in the northwest to collect disasters. Zhi Lilang offered a way to resolve them. The word "Xun" was to resolve disasters, and even more so, to resolve the deadlock of the Daye Dynasty."

"..."

Having said that, he straightened his back, and looked at the court with his old but clear eyes. He was so shocked by his words that he lost his mind and couldn't even utter a word. Then he looked at the eldest princess who was pale and obviously flustered. She didn't know how to deal with it.

His last few words were accompanied by rumbling thunder from the sky, and it was getting closer and closer, as if God was adding a deterrent force to his words, and the whole hall trembled from these few words!
At this moment, Shang Ruyi's breathing was also suffocated.

Only then did she understand why Yu Wenye wanted to stop her, because after all, she was only a second-rank imperial lady. Although she had a high status, she did not have any real power in the court, let alone fame.

But Pei Shi is different - he is an old minister, and he is also very famous in the court. Only when he utters these words can he attract everyone's attention and shock everyone!

But now, he not only proposed "poor", but also pulled everyone's emotions to those two words——

Disaster!

That's what she was "looking forward to", a turnaround!
At this moment, the road has almost reached Shang Ruyi's feet.
