"Fang Aiqing, yesterday I asked Ruan Jie, the minister of Dali Temple, to help you check the files. I wonder what clues you can find?"
Fang Yu was startled and frowned. The emperor was really incompetent. Did he think that investigating the case was just playing house?
But he still had to give face. Fang Yu stepped out and raised his hands and said: "Your Majesty, there are too few clues in the file. I have not found any useful clues from it yet."
Xuanyuan Qingxue frowned: "Since Fang Aiqing can win the first place in the imperial examination, how can he be helpless about this case and have no clues at all?"
"Of course, I believe in Fang Aiqing's ability. How about this? The original deadline was two months, but now it's one month?"
"In this way, the people and officials of the world will no longer question Fang Aiqing's ability!"
Xuanyuan Qingxue finished speaking to herself and directly set a time limit for Fang Yu to solve the case.
Fang Yu was extremely angry. This dog emperor didn't understand anything and just gave random orders. This great Zhou Dynasty really deserves to die!
After finally suppressing the anger in his heart, Fang Yu said coldly: "Your Majesty is the Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty. How can your oral orders be changed overnight?"
Xuanyuan Qingxue sat on the dragon chair, feeling very proud when she saw Fang Yu suppressing his anger.
"What Fang Aiqing said is wrong. I just want this matter to come to light as soon as possible, catch the murderer as soon as possible, and give justice to the people who were harmed back then."
"What's more, according to Fang Aiqing's ability, isn't one month not enough?"
Fang Yu's face was cold and he suppressed the anger in his heart: "Your Majesty, this case has been going on for eighteen years. It cannot be found out so easily!"
This emperor doesn’t understand anything, yet he insists on pointing fingers!
If it weren't for the suspicion that this case was involved in the extermination of the Fang family, Fang Yu wouldn't want to deal with it at all!
Xuanyuan Qingxue's eyes turned cold as she glanced over: "Fang Aiqing, are you saying that my words are no longer useful to you?"
The ministers looked at Fang Yu with gloating as if they were watching a good show.
It seems that this number one scholar really offended the emperor.
"Master Fang, this is the opportunity His Majesty gives you, you must seize it!"
"Yes, Number One Scholar, you must not betray His Majesty's trust!"
"Master Fang, you don't know how to be blessed in the midst of blessings. Your Majesty is a wise king, how can he harm you?"
The ministers suppressed their laughter while adding insult to injury.
There are also a few people who understand that the emperor is making things difficult, but a champion is not yet qualified to offend their colleagues and His Majesty.
Fang Yu's cold eyes glanced at the few people who had fallen into trouble, and his heart became even colder. Now the monarch of Zhou Dynasty is extremely confused, and his ministers are following his influence!
When he changes the surname of this great Zhou, he would like to see what these ferocious-faced ministers will look like! Is this monarch's blood cold or hot?
Fang Yu calmed down the anger on his face: "Master, accept the order!"
Xuanyuan Qingxue raised her eyebrows, feeling extremely proud that Fang Yu dared to call her the Dog Emperor, so she would let him taste the power of the Emperor!
Of course, if Fang Yu couldn't find out, Xuanyuan Qingxue wouldn't let him die. After all, Fang Yu still had the ability to govern the country.
If it is found out, it will be her, the emperor’s sage, of course!
Seeing Fang Yu agree, the faces of these ministers became even more sarcastic.
Sure enough, a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and the number one scholar is really not afraid of death!
However, this has nothing to do with them.
After going to court, Fang Yu left in a hurry.
Originally this case was not simple, but now the emperor has shortened the deadline.
What if the dog emperor has another whim and continues to shorten the time?
Looking at Fang Yu's hurried away figure, Xuanyuan Qingxue felt that the suffocation in her chest had been reduced a lot, and she let out a bad breath!
"Zhi Hua, I have to leave the palace today." Xuanyuan Qingxue thought of going to Zuixian Tower to see Fang Yu tonight, and she wanted to hear what Fang Yu had to say about her!
Zhihua reminded: "Your Majesty, we have to meet with the envoys of Yan State today. They have been waiting at Honglu Temple for three days."
Xuanyuan Qingxue paused and frowned, with a look of displeasure on her face.
"I almost forgot."
If she doesn't go, the courtiers' saliva will drown her!
"Well, in that case, if Zhihua arranges Ziwei to go to Zuixian Tower, he must send someone to keep an eye on it!" Xuanyuan Qingxue ordered.
Zhihua nodded: "Yes."
On the other side, Fang Yu, who was walking in the palace, sighed from time to time. It's no wonder that the Great Zhou Dynasty is going to die. According to the willfulness of this dog emperor, the Great Zhou Dynasty will die anyway!
"Brother Fang, don't be downcast." Liu Liangzuo came and patted Fang Yu on the shoulder, "Let's go. It just so happens that Liu has nothing to do today, so I invite you to have a drink."
Fang Yu quickly said: "Brother Liu had something to do yesterday, why don't you go have a few drinks at your home today?"
"No, no, no, Liu found a restaurant with good taste. Today he took Brother Fang to have a look." Liu Liangzuo said with a smile.
"Then we agreed today that Fang will treat us."
The two came to a restaurant, which was right next to Zuixian Tower.
Liu Liangzuo chuckled: "Brother Fang, do you think this location is good?"
Fang Yu nodded. After eating and drinking here, he went directly to Zuixian Tower to relax. It was indeed very good.
Liu Liangzuo suddenly looked around with a mysterious look on his face: "Brother Fang, do you know what the emperor is going to do today?"
Fang Yu was quite surprised: "Does Brother Liu know this?"
Liu Liangzuo nodded proudly: "You know, as long as the eunuchs in the palace have this, they can talk easily."
With that said, Liu Liangzuo rubbed his fingers and moved closer to Fang Yu.
"Your Majesty is going to receive the envoys from the State of Yan today. I saw them from a distance when they entered the capital. They look rough and are worthy of being savages."
"Today there will be a banquet held in the palace to express Zhou's welcome to them. Unfortunately, you and I are only minor officials and cannot get in at all."
Liu Liangzuo looked regretful.
"Brother Liu is still awesome."
Fang Yu praised him. He had no interest in the envoy from Yan State, and he was even less interested in today's dinner. It would be more interesting to go to Zuixian Tower to chat with Miss Ziwei.
"That's all, just because it doesn't work today doesn't mean it won't work in the future!"
Liu Liangzuo made up his mind and changed the subject: "By the way, Brother Fang, has there been any progress in the case His Majesty asked you to investigate? If there is anything you need my help with, please don't be polite."
Fang Yu was grateful. Although Liu Liangzuo and he met by chance, he was indeed very loyal.
Those who were close friends with him in the past had alienated him after knowing that he was being made things difficult by the emperor. Only Liu Liangzuo still treated him sincerely.
"Brother Liu's kindness, Fang understands it. However, there is no clue about the case now, and there is no way to bring it up if you want to help." Fang Yu has some ideas in his mind, but the case involves too much, and it will even affect the senior officials in the court. Minister, he doesn't want to involve the Liu family.
"It's okay. Take your time. There will be a road before the car reaches the mountain."
After the two of them went to a restaurant to have lunch together, it was already afternoon.
Seeing Liu Liangzuo's drunken appearance, Fang Yu was really helpless. He didn't expect that Liu Liangzuo's drinking capacity was really not that good.
