The Great Demon of Martial Arts

Chapter 340
There is a saying, the king wants his ministers to die, and the ministers have to die.

But Cui Yan, he doesn't want to die, he wants to live!

Not long after, Cui Yan stepped into the imperial study, and immediately bowed respectfully and said: "Cui Yan, my minister, sees Your Majesty."

quiet!
Deathly silence!
Qin Huang lowered his head and did not speak.

Cui Yan knew this early on, so he didn't panic in his heart, no matter how panicked he would not save his life, it is better to calm down and play a game with His Majesty, maybe he can win a way out.

Now, his backing is not Qinhuang, but the Taoist sect, and the Taoist sect still needs him.

Qin Huang raised his head in surprise, not knowing where Cui Yan's self-confidence came from, so indifferent, after thinking about it, he suddenly realized.

It can be seen from the court meeting that Cui Yan is relying on Taoism.

In other words, Cui Yan became the spokesperson of the Taoist sect in the court.

So what?
A sneer appeared at the corner of Qin Huang's mouth, he picked up the evidence presented by Jin Yiwei, threw it on the ground, and landed in front of Cui Yan.

"Look, look, what stupid things you have done." Qin Huang slammed the table and said angrily.

Cui Yan had a bad premonition in his heart. He thought it was an early court event, but now it seems that it is not the case.

For a while, the mood that was not flustered, finally became chaotic.

If it happened early today, it would be a matter of political disagreement after all, so it would not be an unforgivable crime, let alone put him to death.

But other things are not necessarily.

Cui Yan bent down, picked up the paper slowly, opened the paper anxiously, and read it carefully.

At the beginning, Cui Yan's face changed slightly, and the things recorded in it were all well-documented.

Here, I have to praise Jin Yiwei for his ability to handle affairs.

To be honest, the imperial court is unwilling to pursue it, otherwise few people in the imperial court are clean.

When halfway through the reading, Cui Yan's face was as pale as paper.

I didn't even finish reading it, because it was meaningless, and the first few items were enough to make him die without a place to bury him.

Among them, most are for his beloved son.

Didn't expect this to happen.

Cui Yan's body went limp, and he collapsed on the ground, then he suddenly remembered, knelt down on the ground, and apologized: "Your Majesty, forgive me, these things are just a momentary confusion.

The old minister got a son when he was old, spoiled him a lot, and committed a catastrophic disaster, the veteran had no choice but to settle it.

I hope His Majesty will understand the old minister's heart to protect his son. "

As he spoke, Cui Yan revealed his true feelings. After all, his only son had just died, and now he was framed again.

Qin Huang snorted angrily and said, "According to what you say, if every courtier commits a crime and blames the dead, can you be lawless?"

"These things are one after another, but there is one thing wrong?" Qin Huang said coldly.

Cui Yan's heart sank to the bottom of the valley, with a look of despair on his face, knowing that he would not escape this catastrophe today.

Without even an explanation, he knelt on the ground in a daze, waiting for the Taoist to come to rescue him.

If the Taoist sect does not save him, he will die. If the Taoist sect comes, there may be a glimmer of life.

Cui Yan is destined to think too much. In this sensitive period, Taoist sects can't even enter the palace, so how can they save Cui Yan.

After Cui Yan's sect reported, the Taoist sect was closed, and they did not come forward.

The Taoist sect already knew about the early court today, and Cui Yan had run out of use, so why bother to save him, the gain outweighs the loss.

On the other hand, they couldn't enter the imperial palace, and they couldn't even see Qin Huang's face in the Taoist sect, so there was nothing they could do to help them.

If the three masters of the Taoist sect are here, maybe you can give it a try.

Sitting and waiting, Cui Yan finally gave up without waiting for the arrival of Taoism.

At this moment, he just knew that he should not trust others.

At this time, I don't know whether it is despair or something else...

Cui Yan was stunned, and he didn't defend himself, his heart sank to the bottom, and there was no room for turning around.

"Your Majesty, no matter how you punish, the humble official has no complaints. I don't know who raised the old official, so that the old official will die." Cui Yan asked respectfully, kneeling on the ground with a cold face, grabbing the ground with his head.

Even if it is death, he must die to understand.

Qin Huang pondered for a while, and then said: "This matter was submitted by Jin Yiwei, not an individual."

Cui Yan nodded, he already knew who it was.

Ji Chuan!

Other than this person, he couldn't think of anyone who would be bored enough to flip through the files of Jin Yiwei.

Some of the things here even go back a few years, not political enemies, no one is bored here.

Only now did Cui Yan regret that he shouldn't have offended Ji Chuan. It would have been nice to let the Xuanyin faction make amends for his son before, why bother to pull Ji Chuan?

However, it was too late to regret at this time.

When things are done, they are done. There is no medicine for regret in the world.

"The old minister thanked His Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live." Cui Yan kowtowed violently, and after a long time, he raised his head, revealing a smear of blood on his forehead.

"The old minister has a merciless request." Cui Yan's expression was indifferent, as if he put life and death aside.

"What's the matter?" Qin Huang frowned slightly, a person who deserves a crime has many things to do.

"I hope His Majesty will spare the family of the humble official. They are innocent, and they are all implicated by the old official."

Speaking of this, Cui Yan rarely cried, begging to look at Emperor Qin.

There is nothing wrong with this!

Qin Huang didn't refuse, nodded and said: "Because of Ai Qing's hard work, I will accept this matter."

Immediately afterwards, without Cui Yan continuing to speak, Emperor Qin said calmly: "Remove Cui Yan from the position of Secretary of the Ministry of War, and put him in the prison pending trial."

After finishing speaking, two soldiers walked in outside the imperial study room, took off Cui Yan's wearing flower feathers, and escorted him towards the prison.

Qin Huang watched this scene quietly, and shook his head, what will happen to Cui Yan has nothing to do with him.

"My lord, Cui Yan is being imprisoned in the sky prison, do you want to go and see?" Xu Yihai has been waiting, and as soon as he heard the news, he immediately came to report.

Ji Chuan narrowed his eyes slightly, nodded and said, "Go, go and see Cui Shangshu."

Heavenly Prison!

Ji Chuan slowly walked into the sky prison, came to a cell, and looked at an old man sitting on the dry grass inside.

This person is Cui Yan!
It's just that after being stripped of his crown, he is no longer as vigorous as before, and is just an ordinary old man.

"Why, Ji Qianhu came to see me making jokes?" Cui Yan narrowed his eyes, looked at Ji Chuan standing outside the prison, and said calmly.

Ji Chuan shook his head and said with a broken smile: "Master Cui was joking, I didn't come to see your joke."

Cui Yan said coldly: "Then why are you here?"

"I don't know if my lord still remembers what the lower official said before, everything is just beginning, we will wait and see..."

Ji Chuan spoke in a cold voice, slowly.

Cui Yan laughed and said, "Ji Qianhu has a picture, and he said he didn't come to see Cui's joke. I'm so down, do I have to have Cui to admit that 'Cui lost'?"

Ji Chuan continued to shake his head and said, "The lower official said it wasn't just for a joke."

Ji Chuan suddenly laughed, and said: "This official came here to kill the lord, if you don't kill the lord with your own hands, I am afraid that the Taoist sect will take advantage of your loopholes."
