When Yan Shifan appeared, all the ministers present were silent and did not dare to say another word.
The short, fat official who had spoken out without shame before expressed his opinions now turned pale and tremblingly saluted Yan Shifan.
"Xiao...Xiaoge Lao!"
Yan Shifan ignored this person, but went straight to the superior and sat down. After taking his eyes away from the many officials present, he spoke.
"To be honest, I was extremely surprised when I learned the news."
Seeing Yan Shifan like this, the remaining officials in the hall became even more anxious and immediately urged.
"Mr. Xiao Ge, you'd better ask Mr. Yan Ge to come out quickly."
"Right now, everyone is not feeling at ease, they are all worried!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several echoes came from the corner.
"Yes, yes, if this continues, everyone will never have a peaceful life in the future."
"What will we do if Qingliu starts to liquidate!"
"Mr. Xiao Ge, you'd better ask Mr. Yan Ge to come out!"
When Yan Shifan heard this sentence, his expression immediately became serious, he stood up from his seat and said in a deep voice.
"Father has already gone to bed. Do you want to disturb Mr. Yan Ge because of this trivial matter?"
After hearing what Yan Shifan said, the faces of many officials present were filled with displeasure.
Now, the time has come. As the chief minister of the cabinet, Yan Song doesn't want to stand up and make suggestions for everyone, but he still has the mind to sleep.
How could you sleep?
Soon, several shabby officials stood up and threatened.
"Mr. Xiaoge, don't forget, if we fail, you won't be able to live well!"
After Yan Shifan heard the threat from the visitor, he immediately sneered and spoke word by word.
"Okay, if you want to file a complaint, you can go now."
"I want to see whether you die first or my Yan family falls first!"
After hearing this, the officials who had previously expressed dissatisfaction immediately calmed down, like a deflated balloon, and no longer dared to make any move for fear of irritating this domineering and extremely domineering Xiao Ge elder.
Soon, someone stepped forward to smooth things over.
"Mr. Xiao Ge, they are just angry for a moment, don't be surprised!"
"Yes, yes, it's just a moment of anger. You guys, why don't you apologize to Mr. Xiaoge!"
Seeing this, the officials who had previously threatened Yan Shifan respectfully apologized to Yan Shifan, even though they were unwilling to do so.
"Mr. Xiaoge, we were just angry for a moment and bumped into Mr. Xiaoge, hoping..."
However, before they finished speaking, they were interrupted by Yan Shifan's words.
"Okay, okay, now that something like this is happening, it's understandable for everyone to be a little more emotional!"
"Let's forget about this matter."
Yan Shifan waved his hand and said generously.
"Thank you, Mr. Xiaoge!"
When the officials who had broken the pot before saw this, they couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and responded quickly.
Soon, the previous question was raised again.
"But Mr. Xiaoge, what should we do next? Will Qingliu take this opportunity to start liquidation?"
"Everyone has been an official for so many years, and it is inevitable that there will be times when wrong cases are judged and people are offended."
"Sometimes, you don't just accept the money if you want to, because everyone has no choice but to do so!"
"If these things are revealed by Qingliu's group, everyone will be taken to Caishikou to be beheaded!"
Yan Shifan took a panoramic view of the expressions on the faces of many officials present, immediately picked up the teacup on the side, took a sip, and then said.
"If you still trust my Yan family, then go back now and have a good sleep."
"Nothing will happen tomorrow. Everyone will do whatever they have to do as usual!"
"That's all I have to say, do you all understand?"
Yan Shifan's words undoubtedly gave many officials present a shot in the arm!
Some officials who were not very convinced at first had most of their doubts dissipated after seeing Yan Shifan's confident look.
"Mr. Yan Ge must have anticipated this situation in advance and made corresponding preparations!"
"Otherwise, how could Yan Shifan be so confident?"
Soon, Luo Longwen, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, stood up and said loudly.
"Everyone, since Mr. Xiaoge has said so, let's go back first!"
"Besides, when has Mr. Yan Ge ever let us down over the years?"
"Are you right?"
If there is the first one, there will naturally be the second and third ones. Soon Luo Longwen's words were agreed by most of the officials present.
"Yes, Mr. Luo is right. Everyone should go back."
"Everyone, relax, Mr. Yan Ge must have made corresponding plans."
"Yes, it's so late, everyone should go back and don't disturb Mr. Yan Ge's rest!"
Soon, many officials who had gathered in the hall gradually left. In the end, only Luo Longwen, the Minister of Works, and Zhang Runde, the Minister of Criminal Affairs, were left in the huge hall.
Luo Longwen took a step forward, his face full of flattery, and immediately confirmed to Yan Shifan.
"Mr. Xiao Ge, Mr. Yan Ge has really made plans?"
"Didn't I tell you everything before?"
"Go back now and have a good sleep. Nothing will happen tomorrow!"
When Yan Shifan heard this, his face was full of impatience and he immediately ordered.
"Mr. Xiao Ge, let's resign then!"
After getting the exact answer from Yan Shifan, Luo Longwen and Zhang Runde felt relieved. After respectfully saluting Yan Shifan, they left one after another.
At this moment, Yan Shifan was in a particularly bad mood.
Everything that happened before has shown from the side that this group of officials currently only recognize Yan Song, but as Yan Song's son, he does not get their approval!
"It's really unreasonable. These guys only use me, Yan Shifan, as a microphone!"
After Yan Shifan finished speaking, he slammed the table, and immediately swept the teacups and other items on the table to the ground, making a crackling sound. After venting his emotions, Yan Shifan gradually calmed down.
"But compared to my father, my skills are still lacking. It seems that I still have to learn from my father!"
After Yan Shifan finished speaking, he slowly stood up from his seat, and then returned to his room.
…
On the other side, after Xu Jie learned from his subordinates that King Jing was about to go to the feudal lord, he no longer felt sleepy.
Then, he was seen wearing a single coat, sitting up from the bed suddenly, with an unconcealable smile on his face.
"Hmph, Yan Song, your backstage is down now, let me see what you do!"
"It's time to put an end to the grudges and grudges between us."
After Xu Jie finished speaking, he couldn't wait to come to the study and turn on the lights in the study again.
After laying out the pen and paper, Xu Jie considered the sentences and began to write the impeachment memorial.
Although King Jing was about to go to the vassal, Xu Jie knew very well that it was not yet time for the final battle.
He will start with these little shrimps, gradually test Yan Song's bottom line, and when the time is right, he will kill him with one blow!
