While she was here, no one could pass on this will silently, and the only one who could get in was her section on Cangsheng Bridge.

"Could it be that someone was trying to lure him away from the mountain? Your Majesty? No, if it was him, he could give it to me openly. Then, who is it?"

Nalan Mingzhu held his chin and thought for a long time without any clue. In the end, he didn't think much about it. Now that he had found it, the next thing to check was the authenticity.

Nalan Mingzhu was not the kind of person to procrastinate, so she immediately left the restaurant.



"Go and bring the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment and the Minister of Dali Temple." As soon as he entered the door, Chen Nan asked Xiao Dezi to look for the person. While everyone was resting, he started to review the memorial, but he had not slept all night. I can't hold on any longer.

The more Chen Nan thought about it, the more dizzy he became. Finally, he collapsed on the table and fell asleep. In his dream, he entered a strange space, which was completely white and had no direction.

Chen Nan had no destination and just followed his intuition. Suddenly, he heard screams coming from the distance, and the surrounding fog began to dissipate.

In front of him was a continuous battlefield, with at least 30,000 to 40,000 troops fighting, flags fluttering, and the flags of Liang and Zhao flying in the air.

The two were fighting inextricably, and Chen Nan couldn't help but walk towards the middle. He was a little nervous at first, but when he saw that no one around him could see him, let alone touch him.

He looked very similar to Chen Nan. Based on the memory of his previous life, he knew that this was the emperor of the previous generation.

At this moment, the late emperor was very excited. It can be seen that Liang Guo had an absolute advantage in this battle. The late emperor waved the long sword in his hand excitedly and led the army to charge forward.

But the change only happened in an instant. When the Liang army was about to completely encircle the Zhao army, the late emperor suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood and fell off his horse.

For a time, Daliang's rear army fell into chaos. The army without a commander quickly fell into chaos. The attacking soldiers thought that the emperor had been attacked and rushed over immediately.

The Zhao army took this opportunity to launch a fierce counterattack. The Zhao army, which was originally in a chaotic formation and with low morale, fell down at the first touch. In the end, even the late emperor was trapped inside.

Not only did he meet the late emperor, but he also met the shadow guards and Mr. Yun. Finally, Mr. Yun led the remaining shadows towards the imperial city.

The remaining Liang guards guarded the dying emperor and were massacred by the Zhao army. When the emperor was dying, he looked straight at him and opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something.

Just as he was about to get closer, the scene in front of him changed. This time it was outside the Meridian Gate, with hundreds of prisoners in prison uniforms tied to it.

He felt a little familiar with the leading man, and there was a hint of familiarity between his brows. He immediately realized that this man was the former Minister of Punishment, Nalan Xiao.

"Behead." The executioner threw the beheading order in his hand to the ground. Nalan Xiao's head fell to the ground together with Nalan Xiao's head. Then, the two heads rolled down from the ground and fell on him. feet.

Nalan Xiao still opened his eyes and glared at him fiercely, startling him.

"Ah." Chen Nan suddenly opened his eyes and found that he had fallen asleep.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?" Xiao Dezi hurried forward and asked carefully.

"It doesn't matter, how long has it been since I slept?"

"Your Majesty, this happened more than an hour ago."

"What did you wake me up for?" Chen Nan frowned, a little unhappy.

"Slave, I don't dare." Xiao Dezi lowered his head timidly and almost knelt down in front of him.

"Okay, has the person I asked you to find arrived?"

"The humble minister Zhao Tai, the humble minister Song Zhen, pay homage to the emperor." After saying that, Zhao Tai and Song Zhen from Dali Temple bowed quickly.

"Alright, Zhao Tai and Song Zhen have summoned everyone here today. They have something to say. Did the five previous ministers attend?"

Zhao Tai and Song Zhen didn't expect Chen Nan to say this at all. You look at me, I look at you, and they don't know how to answer.

Chen Nan frowned and said dissatisfied: "Either there is, or there isn't. Are you two trying to lie to me?"

"I don't dare." When the two guards heard Chen Nan's anger, they quickly knelt down.

"Stop talking nonsense and speak quickly."

Zhao Tai said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, those five ministers have not been interrogated. They were all ordered by you personally."

"Dismissed without trial?" Chen Nan jumped down from the chair angrily and shouted sullenly.

"Your Majesty, I really don't know what's going on inside. It's all done by Master Zeng." Zhao Tai's voice trembled a little, and he greeted Zeng Sihai in his heart.

"Zhao Tai, Song Zhen, you two form a team to thoroughly investigate the corruption of five officials. Zhao Tai will be the chief and Song Zhen will be the deputy. Within a month, the matter will be thoroughly investigated."

"You hold this sign. Except for the palace, you can come in and out at will. You can take whatever you want and take whatever you want. If you do well, you can get an official position. If you don't do well, you will be punished by yourself. Go to hell, you know?”

"It's your Majesty." Zhao Tai grabbed Chen Nan's badge in his hand. It was the emperor's token. With this badge, anyone who saw him would be respectful.

Compared with Zhao Tai, Song Zhen was much calmer. He glanced at Zhao Tai first, and then quietly glanced at Chen Nan next to him. He seemed to want to say something, but in the end he held back.

"Song Aiqing, just say what you want." Chen Nan noticed Song Zhen's reaction.

"Those cases back then were all related to Master Zeng. I was very worried."

"You don't have to worry about this matter. If Master Zeng refuses to cooperate, then take him down first. I have the authority to ask you to investigate. Do you understand?"

"yes!"

In a blink of an eye, more than half a month has passed. This day is also the day since he entered Liang Kingdom for more than 20 days.

They read memorials in the afternoon and spent the night in Yuqing Palace, or in the Jiaofangsi, or stayed in the Jiaofangsi for a while, but neither he nor Qingqing crossed that limit.

The incident between Zhao Tai and Song Zhen caused a great uproar in the court, and many people were questioned. Now after the court meeting, they did not dare to go anywhere, and went home one after another, waiting for the questioning of Zhao Tai and the two adults.

Neither of them asked anything of value, and Chen Nan felt very uncomfortable, but he also knew that if he rashly intervened in an unsolved case like this, it would only make things worse.

In the study room of the Prime Minister's Mansion, there was still the man in black. Today, Grand Scholar Zeng was not angry. He just leaned on his chair, looking extremely tired.

"Prime Minister, how can you do this?" The man in black looked at the dejected Scholar Zeng with some displeasure.

"Haha, you succeeded? How promising can you be? Do you understand? Now I am the prop for the little emperor to review memorials. Go home and tell your master that I am sleepy."
