Overnight, the news of Dali Temple's arrest of Guo Huai'an spread in the streets and alleys.

Everything happened so suddenly that Prime Minister Yan had no time to silence Guo Huaian before he recognized everything.

It was the butler of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and he helped the Prime Minister's Mansion make such a trap for the Weiwu Hou Mansion because he was offered high-ranking positions and generous salaries after being admitted to the imperial examination.

The emperor read the evidence statement and angrily threw the testimony directly in Prime Minister Yan's face.

After the late emperor left, he revealed that Prime Minister Yan was a person promoted by the emperor himself. What he did was a slap in the emperor's face.

With a "plop", Prime Minister Yan quickly knelt down.

The emperor said angrily: "Prime Minister Yan, do you agree with what is stated above?"

Prime Minister Yan's face turned pale. At this time, he could only abandon the car to save the handsome man.

He said: "The steward made his own decision in this matter, and the minister did not know about it!"

Marquis Weiwu directly complained: "Bah, who's servant dares to do something that harms others and does not benefit himself without the master's order? What a shrinking bastard. If he does a bad thing and it comes out, he will let the servants do it. It’s such a big old face to take the blame.”

Prime Minister Yan was humiliated by the scolding. He had never been so embarrassed since he had been in the officialdom.

He was so angry that he almost vomited blood and roared at Marquis Weiwu: "Whether you believe it or not, I didn't do anything. I have a clear conscience."

"Even if it's not you, it still has something to do with your family. If you want to push a slave out, there is no way."

After saying this, Marquis Weiwu immediately knelt down and said: "Emperor, you can't be too partial. I, Marquis Weiwu, have been framed and suffered so much injustice. You can't ignore it!"

The emperor angrily scolded Yushi Bai and Prime Minister Yan.

"You are really good ministers of this Emperor. You have plotted to harm others. Do you really think that I am an idiot and let you fool me?"

As soon as the emperor's powerful and angry scolding came out, Yushi Bai and Prime Minister Yan were so frightened that they trembled all over.

"Your Majesty, this is a minor minister who has neglected his duty. Please punish me, Your Majesty."

The Great Chu Emperor snorted coldly: "As a supervisory censor, you impeached others without permission and misled this emperor. What crime should you be guilty of, Bai Bojin?"

Normally the emperor would address his ministers as Aiqing, but at this moment the emperor directly called Bai Yushi by his name, which showed that he was extremely angry.

Yushi Bai quickly kowtowed and said, "If a minor minister has made a mistake that has not been investigated, please ask the emperor to punish him."

Jin Yue glanced at his grandfather, and Marquis Weiwu received his granddaughter's eyes.

Understanding immediately, he snorted and said with great disdain: "If there is one, there are two. You, the censor, are so confused and you don't know how many innocent people have been harmed. If I were to be honest, I would definitely be better than you."

Bai Yushi was so angry that he almost rolled his eyes. How could this mighty prince speak so energetically?

He said angrily: "You think you can be the censor. If you have the ability, come and try."

Marquis Weiwu snorted coldly: "Just give it a try. If you give us your position for two months, I will definitely do better than you."

"You are so arrogant!"

"If you don't believe me, make a bet. If I do better than you, how about you kneel down, kowtow, and call me grandpa three times?"

"Then what if you lose?"

"For the same reason, I kneel down and call you grandpa."

Bai Yushi was so excited that he lost his mind: "Compare."

The veins on the emperor's forehead popped out, and he became more and more displeased with Bai Yushi.

He said angrily: "Yu Shi Bai is so talented that he actually bet his official position in court? I really underestimated you before."

Bai Yushi was frightened, and then he realized that he had been so stimulated that he said something stupid!

"It was Wei Chen who was provoked and made a mistake. Wei Chen knows his mistake."

The Great Chu Emperor stopped looking at him and said coldly: "Since you are not satisfied with the position of censor, I will grant your request and give your position to Wei Wuhou."

When Prime Minister Yan heard that it would be great if Marquis Wu Wu of Wei became the censor, he quickly said: "Emperor, this official position is a great responsibility of the country, don't be such a child's play!"

Emperor Chu was so angry when he heard this: "You mean this emperor is kidding? Are you sure it's not you who are kidding?"

Seizing the opportunity, Wei Wuhou immediately began to apply eye medicine: "You officials protect each other, and you don't know how many nonsense things are hidden behind your back."

To say that this is said with intention, the listener is even more intentional.

Since ancient times, emperors have had a common problem, that is, they are more or less suspicious.

Now Marquis Weiwu's words were successful, and this incident allowed the emperor to successfully raise suspicion on Prime Minister Yan.

The emperor looked directly at Marquis Weiwu: "Marquis Weiwu, I ask you, if you are asked to be the supervisory censor, can you do a good job?"

Marquis Weiwu was suddenly pleasantly surprised, and his face turned red with excitement.

"I will definitely do a good job, and I will work hard to keep an eye on all the civil and military officials, and I will never let them deceive you even half a cent."

Jin Yue twitched the corner of her mouth, asking you to act on the spot, but not asking you to perform beyond your normal capabilities?

Now, all civil and military officials will shun you as a snake and a scorpion!

The emperor thought of Wei Wuhou's fighting power in the court, which was like a shrew scolding the streets. The court would be lively in the future.

Thinking of this, the emperor had a smile on his face.

He said: "Marquis Weiwu, I will give you two months. If you, the imperial censor, do not have any achievements, I will punish you with the crime of roaring in the court."

"My lord, I obey the order."

At first, Marquis Weiwu was still on tenterhooks, but now that he had witnessed his granddaughter's clever plan, he didn't panic at all.

Then the emperor directly reprimanded Prime Minister Yan in public: "Even if you were not the one who did those things, you are still guilty of lax service. If you can't make the Weiwu Marquis Mansion calm down, you should stop being the prime minister."

Prime Minister Yan quickly kowtowed and said, "I obey your order."

Immediately to the court, Yushi Bai hurriedly chased me out and said, "Prime Minister, can't you just ignore me?"

Prime Minister Yan had a dark look on his face, glanced at no one around him, and then said: "You are simply stupid."

Bai Yushi quickly admitted: "Yes, I am really dizzy today."

Prime Minister Yan looked very ugly and said: "Then is it really good for Marquis Weiwu to be the censor? When the emperor's anger has subsided in two months, then Marquis Weiwu can't do anything famous, then your official position will naturally come back."

"What you said is that I will be waiting for you."

——

The matter of Wei Wuhou becoming the acting supervisor of the censor spread like wildfire.

For a time, this matter was spread in the streets and alleys!

It is said that Marquis Weiwu was a vulgar country boy who did not know a few Chinese characters. He spent his whole life imitating others and making high-ranking officials laugh.

But now, he is an old man and he is still an official. The supervisory censor is a fourth grade official.

Marquis Weiwu returned to the Marquis Mansion with a smile on his happy face.

Mrs. Zhen never expected that there would be such a turn of events.

In order to please the mighty Marquis, she said with a smile: "The Marquis's promotion to the imperial court is a gratifying event. We should hold a big banquet for all the nobles in the capital to come and see it, so that we can get rid of the bad breath you have had in your heart for many years." .”
