Chapter 188
"Your Majesty!" Chang Sheng was shocked.

Why is it so serious? She thought it was a deduction of salary at most.Although Pei Zixu has not been in office for long, he has solved many old cases during his tenure, which can be regarded as a lot of credit.How could he be dismissed and investigated because of such a matter, not to mention that this matter involved a huge amount.

"Gu Changsheng, I'm talking to Pei Zixu." Emperor Xuanwu's face suddenly darkened.

He has always doted on Gu Changsheng, basically treating her with a pleasant face, as if he was doting on a junior.I never thought that this time it would be so strict. Gu Changsheng knew his duty as a courtier, and if His Majesty is angry, he can only listen and not disobey.

Pei Zixu said calmly: "The minister deserves to be punished."

"Gu Changsheng, go to the side hall and wait." Emperor Xuanwu dropped the folder in his hand, making a loud noise.Changsheng had no choice but to cast a glance at Pei Zixu, then restrained his temper and went out.

Emperor Xuanwu counted the booklets in the hall one by one, and then he was not angry, "You have to take the blame for this matter, otherwise it will be hard to calm down the temperament of these people."

Among the ten booklets, five people's names were written on that account book.Isn't this a slap in the face to cover up my guilty conscience?Deciding that Wei Cangjiang couldn't do anything to them after his death, he breathed a sigh of relief, and would naturally show more lies.

Emperor Xuanwu first rewarded Zhou Ji and Zhou Ke, and then dismissed Pei Zixu from his official position, just to let them breathe a sigh of relief!If you want to catch the monkey, you have to throw some sweetness first.

"I understand." Pei Zixu knew that even if His Majesty did not dismiss him, he would have to resign and go home.This matter is nothing more than His Majesty taking advantage of the trend.

His father was seriously ill, and he had to be called back to preside over the overall situation.The burden of the Pei family will be on his shoulders in the future.And when his father asked him to go to Chang'an to report on his duties, he just wanted His Majesty to see the sincerity of the Pei family.

Now that His Majesty has seen it, his goal has been achieved, and the post of Minister of Dali Temple is no longer important to him.But he never thought that after staying in Chang'an for less than half a year, his heart would fall here
"It's good that you understand." Emperor Xuanwu said with a half-sigh when he thought of the empress in the middle palace, "Go back and tell your father, as long as the Pei family doesn't make any serious mistakes, the prosperity of the whole life will not be a problem."

What Pei Zixu wanted was the emperor's words. He bowed three times and kowtowed nine times, and said respectfully: "My lord, thank you for your grace!"

……

Changsheng wanted to ask Zhou Chen for advice when he went to the side hall, but he met the concubine Xian concubine on the way.She knew that it was because those who came were not kind, and the news of Wei Cangjiang's suicide had just spread, Concubine Xian came to settle accounts with her.

When Concubine Xian approached, Chang Sheng noticed that her eyes were swollen and her makeup couldn't cover it.

"I've seen Concubine Xian." Chang Sheng saluted.

Concubine Xian didn't speak, she stepped forward and slapped her hard.Lifting his chin, he asked full of hatred: "Gu Changsheng, do you know why I slapped you like this."

Chang Sheng touched his cheek, the dull pain was really uncomfortable, and he said expressionlessly: "If your mother is fine, I will step back."

"You are very courageous." Concubine Xian despised her appearance the most.

"Ma'am, the queen is here." Cuiping reminded in a low voice.

Concubine Xian looked sideways, the queen was walking towards this side, and Princess Ronghua was also there.

"It's so cold, what is my sister doing here?" The queen glanced at Chang Sheng's cheek and said calmly.

Concubine Xian pinched her hands, and said in an angry manner: "I'm in a bad mood today, empress, I advise you not to interfere in this matter. Teach Gu Changsheng a lesson today, even if the queen mother is here, it's useless!"

"Concubine Xian has such a temper!" Princess Ronghua is the most outspoken, she gloated and said, "I'm not afraid to remind Concubine Xian that according to the laws of this dynasty, it is most taboo for concubines to interfere in government affairs. You sent Gu Changsheng today , Turn around and the people at Yushitai make a fuss, I want to see if you, the virtuous concubine, can keep your concubine position!"

Although Ronghua was very noisy on weekdays, he was also very lawless.But she is also very cautious when speaking normally, and she will not do things that are criminals indiscriminately.After all, he was taught by the empress, who knows the rules of survival in this harem.

His Majesty dotes on her and pampers her, everything is within the principles.

"Princess Ronghua, that's how you talk to me!" Concubine Xian said angrily.

The queen took her daughter's hand and smiled, "Your sister can talk to Bengong like that, and Ronghua has a few words with you, so why are you angry?"

"Zhe Ziming from Yushitai will appear on the table in the Xuanzheng Hall early in the morning." Changsheng said abruptly: "This is the second time that the concubine Xian has made things difficult for me for no reason. Humiliation."

"Gu Changsheng, you..." Concubine Xian was annoyed, knowing that if the incident got to Yushitai, it would be a big deal.

Changsheng raised his hand and said in a loud voice: "I am not the female family member of the harem, and I will be disciplined by my mother. If I have any mistakes, I will be taught by your majesty, and I will leave."

She was very anxious, so she made a detour and left.

After walking a few steps, he started to run.

Ronghua's eyes widened immediately, and he ran to catch up and shouted, "Gu Changsheng, wait a minute, this princess has something to ask you!"

Recently, this Gu Changsheng is always elusive, and it is rare for her to catch her once.Sitting in the mother's harem just now, when he heard the news about Gu Changsheng, he quickly chased after him.Who knew that before he could say a few words, the person ran away again.

Chang Sheng ran all the way to the side hall, Zhou Chen was reading a book.

"Zhou Chen, His Majesty wants to dismiss Pei Zixu, you should quickly think of a way." She said in a hurry, her brows were on fire.

"Father is in charge, what can I do." Zhou Chen put down the book in his hand, and said slowly: "If we don't deal with Pei Zixu, is it possible to deal with you? Gu Changsheng, someone has to take responsibility for this matter."

He deliberately didn't tell Gu Changsheng the news that Pei Zixu was going to leave Chang'an, because he didn't want Gu Changsheng to care so much about other men.

"Okay, then deal with me!" Chang Sheng stepped forward to grab his arm, and begged, "You go to His Majesty to intercede, as long as you let Pei Zixu stay, I will be dismissed."

Zhou Chen stopped talking, pulled Gu Changsheng's hand away, and asked her, "What if I don't."

Chang Sheng's eyes were full of disappointment, "Pei Zixu is a good official, you can't avenge yourself publicly."

"Gu Changsheng!" Ronghua stood outside and heard the truth, stepped in and said indignantly: "Brother Pei will go back to Guanlong in a few days, no matter what happens, he will have to resign. You, what You can blame my fifth brother casually!"
