Chapter 122 Rumours

"I think it's inappropriate."

When the whole hall was silent, the Minister of Criminal Affairs came out. Regarding matters involving criminal law, he did not want to get involved but had to speak out.

"What Mr. Ji said is certainly reasonable, but at this time of internal and external troubles, only severe punishment can deter Xiao Xiao."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Ji Ming with a sneer.

"Why are you eager to abolish the law of implication? Could it be that you have rebellious thoughts in your heart and want to find a way out for your family in advance?"

"Why does Sima Shangshu repeatedly make things difficult for his subordinates?"

Ji Ming looked at Sima Yu, the Minister of Punishment, with sharp eyes.

"The case of King Beijiang a few years ago was one that I was so eager to close, which almost caused thousands of innocent people to die on the guillotine. Can you be considered a minister of the imperial court?"

"presumptuous!"

The Minister of Punishment scolded expressionlessly.

"Mr. Ji today, are you using your merits to defy Shangguan? He actually slanders me with unfounded facts and asks your empress to make the decision for me!"

Who can stand tall and majestic in this court is not a veteran? You can borrow money from the treasury for corruption, and a minister has control over intricate forces. As long as there are no big mistakes, it will be difficult to fall. Ji Ming

As a doctor in the Ministry of Justice, contradicting your immediate boss is really looking for death.

"The Queen Mother and the Queen Mother, are you two going to have a fight?"

Zhao made a mistake and stood up.

"I think that the abolition of the implicated matter mentioned by Dr. Ji cannot be done hastily. We may ask Dali Temple to study it and then determine whether it is feasible."

He changed the subject and said to the Queen Mother, who was above him. He knew with his toes that it was impossible for the female devil to agree to Ji Ming's proposal, at least not now.

"Ji Langzhong has made great achievements in handling the case this time. He was promoted to the chancellor of Dali Temple and collaborated with the officials in the temple to discuss the amendment of the law according to the national conditions."

Empress Dowager Zhao said lightly.

"Thank you, empress."

Ji Ming bowed his hands and bowed with joy on his face.

"The empress is wise!"

A uniform chorus of compliments rang out. These ministers were good at flattering other than anything else. Zhao Cuo was not surprised by the bad woman's decision. She said that she wanted Ji Ming to amend the criminal law without mentioning the abolition of involvement.

Mr. Ji did not plan to achieve success overnight, but planned to build on his achievements this time. This would be considered an unprecedented progress.

Young Master Zhao actually thinks that it doesn't matter whether the law is revised or not. These things written on paper cannot restrain the monarch. What the female devil says now is the real law.

‘Is this Beijing official corruption case concluded here?’

Zhao Cuo, who had been working intensively for less than half a month, breathed a long sigh of relief. He just wanted to go home as soon as possible to prepare for the New Year. He urgently needed the warm embrace of his sister to soothe his tired heart.

"I have something to report to your Majesty."

The Minister of Rites walked forward with his head lowered and said respectfully.

"The Crown Prince of Qi came to Beijing yesterday. In addition, the six kings also sent their princes to pay their respects. The Ministry of Rites has properly arranged it."

"Prince Qi enters the capital?"

Some of the courtiers who had just learned the news were immediately in an uproar. Not only did they look at each other, Zhao Cuo was also a little surprised. The second most powerful among the seven vassal kings of Dayu Kingdom was King Qi, and the feudal state was close to the prosperous land in the south of the Yangtze River.

It is not a trivial matter for the Prince of Qi to come to the capital. You must know that the relationship between the imperial court and the vassal king is very tense. Even for the New Year's court gathering, they will only send ordinary princes, but this time the crown prince came.

But the crown prince of a country!

The heir to the title of ordinary prince will be named the crown prince by the court, while the eldest son of the seven vassal princes will be appointed as the crown prince, and will inherit the vassal kingdom and become the real prince in the future.

'If something happens to the King and Prince of Qi in the capital, will King Qi still rebel?'

Zhao Cuo smelled the smell of coming rain.

"Having a good time watching over Prince Qi."

The empress dowager's calm voice obviously already knew about this. Then several officials mentioned some things about the court meeting, until no one asked again, the morning court finally ended. Young Master Zhao thought he would be detained by a bad woman again,

In the end, he successfully followed the officials out of the Chaotian Palace.

"It's still early, why not go to Yan'er."

After Zhao Cuo left the imperial city, he drove a carriage to the suburbs. In the half month since he returned to the capital, he had not seen his ordinary friends. Because he was busy with errands, he did not take the initiative to contact them. Madam Yan, who was particularly greedy for his national fortune.

It is already abnormal to not see anyone for more than ten days in a row.

'Did the Chu State Master tell Yan'er about protecting the Queen Mother when I was hunting in Donghe?'

He was muttering in his mind.

However, this trip came to nothing.

The maid at Madam Yan's house told him that her master had returned to Daozong.

"That's all."

After Zhao Cuo hesitated for some time, he turned around and left. He felt that Yan'er was avoiding him, otherwise how could he not come to him for dual cultivation for half a month.

"If Madam decides to sever ties with me because I tried to protect the Queen Mother during the Donghe Incident, then there is nothing to say. There is no harm in breaking up right now."

He didn't feel that he had any deep friendship with Madam Yan. Their relationship was just a treaty. At first, the late emperor's widow bewitched him for the sake of the country's fortune. Instead, he captured her with an army.

They often practice together in harmony and want to take revenge on Empress Dowager Teru together.

All of this is driven by interests, and Zhao Cuo no longer wants to deal with the female devil. His current goal is to ruin Dayu's national destiny and the summer demon who may attack again at any time. In short, he and Madam Yan no longer pursue the common goal.

It is normal to take two scattered shots.

Young Master Zhao drove directly back to Zheng Guogong's Mansion.

"Where's my sister?"

"The eldest lady went out with a friend."

"Why do you go out and run around when you are in good health?"

Zhao Cuo, who had not been able to see his elder sister, was so free that he didn't know what to do. Fortunately, it was almost lunch time. Miss Zhao came back after he drank two cups of tea and even took him to the street.

The new clothes he bought are indeed his precious sister.

"It's New Year's Eve the day after tomorrow. Are you done with your errands? You should spend the New Year with your sister."

Zhao Shanxin said seriously in front of the dining table.

"I don't even have a confidante, so of course I can only stay with my sister."

Young Master Zhao sighed and said with a regretful tone, he came into this world and became a great nobleman, but not to mention having a lot of wives and concubines, he didn't even have a good female friend, and he was still a "pure Yang Taoist".

"Don't you still have Miss Lan and Mrs. Yan?"

Miss Zhao said quietly.

"I'm so unfamiliar. The only woman I've been close to since I was older is my sister. I've never touched any of the bewitching people out there."

Zhao Cuo quickly waved his hands and said that he was not that kind of person. He only had thoughts about the female devil when he was tired of living. He might actually be sent to the cleansing room one day.

"rhetoric!"

Zhao Shangxin spat with a slight blush, picked up a chicken leg and blocked his mouth, with a smile in his charming peach blossom eyes.
