Chapter 69 Knock on the mountain and shake the tiger

The next day, the matter of the Political Affairs Hall ended. Wen Wenlan originally planned to go to Qingxin Hall, but when he saw Zhang Pei's smug look, he called him to the Imperial Study Room alone.

"Shangshu Zhang has been very happy recently. Look at your red face. If you have any good things, come and listen to me."

Wen Wenlan pointed to the seat and asked Zhang Pei to sit down, waved his hand, and gave him a cup of tea without saying a word.

Zhang Pei thanked En happily, squinted his little eyes through the misty water vapor, and did not see a cold face in Wushu.

"Your Majesty's health is the greatest joy for me. I entrusted my Majesty with all my trust and care." Zhang Pei put the teacup aside, arched his hands, and narrowed his eyes even smaller.

Wen Wenlan's fingers slashed the precisely outlined patterns on the teacup, and his fingertips paused the lid, "Yes, but you seem to regard my trust as nothing, and I think some things can be collected."

Zhang Pei didn't know why, but he didn't know that he had been listed on the hunting list by Wen Wenlan, but he just slapped him with a shameless face.

"Your Majesty was joking..."

Before he finished speaking, Wen Wenlan swallowed Zhang Pei's words back into his stomach. Zhang Pei choked his neck and looked confused.

"It seems that Zhang Qing is old and can't do things, and he doesn't even have enough memory." Wen Wenlan held a cold face, "The Ministry of Personnel should change to someone who is flexible in doing things."

Yun Danfengqing's words scared Zhang Pei to the ground. He knelt down tremblingly, and his white-haired and wooden head could not remember anything he had reported.

Zhang Pei didn't know that Wen Wenlan had already set up a trap waiting for him, and he didn't know that Wen Wenlan was no longer the emperor who used to be the one who could only seize power with the Regent.

The emperor is growing up and deploying his own plans where they cannot see them.

"As usual, Zhang Qing should submit the assessment form for the Ministry of Personnel, but what are you doing now? I don't know what you are doing all day long. Do you still have the court in your heart, and do you still have the emperor in your eyes!"

Wen Wenlan's last sentence almost came out, and Zhang Pei's heart was beating wildly. He felt relieved when he heard that it was about the assessment of the Ministry of Personnel.

Zhang Pei took a breath and raised the courage to defend himself, "Report to Your Majesty, as seen in the past, the memorials will not be submitted to the court in the past. Now, the assessment has not been completed..."

Wen Wenlan lie with his eyes open, and he didn't stop him. He listened to Zhang Pei finishing the excuse he thought of, and only then did he realize how serious he had been deceived before and how powerful the Regent had under his command.

This power is so great that you can deceive the emperor and ignore the court.

Wen Wenlan clenched her sleeves and suppressed the surging anger in her heart. The more angry she became, the quieter she became. Her sharp eyes seemed to be about to silence people.

Although Zhang Pei dared not look at Wen Wenlan now, he could already feel that under the dull air pressure, he could hardly breathe.

"It's been a month... I sent out the memorial before the Mid-Autumn Festival. Zhang Pei, you've disappointed me so much."

Zhang Pei was almost limp on the ground. He had never seen such an emperor before. He didn't know why the emperor knew the content of the memorial that was stopped by the Regent.

Although Zhang Pei was in the third rank of official position, he was timid. Although he had done some court affairs with the regent in the past, he still worked for the regent.

Now that he was in front of the emperor, he was scared after just a few words.

"I will give you another chance. Tomorrow, I will present the memorial, otherwise..."

Wen Wenlan snorted coldly, and Zhang Pei left with gratitude.
