The Wind Emperor was furious.

It was just a negligent death, and it had dragged on for so long, he knew that there were many things in the Windy Country, and he could only turn a blind eye, but now that this kind of thing has been raging in front of him for so long, he hasn't dealt with it much.

"What's the matter" In the court, Emperor Feng sneered and looked at the officials, raising his voice, "There are so many officials in my court, all of them are not a murder case that eats dry food, and they actually kicked this and that."

No one dared to answer, everyone was silent, their faces were pale, and some of them were in a cold sweat, all afraid that the anger of the Wind Emperor would spread to them.

Emperor Feng was even more angry, there were many sergeants in the court, and various forces colluded with each other, he didn't know, usually he could only check and balance, but when he was old, he was more and more inadequate, and he was not as good at checking and balancing the courtiers as before, he coldly threw the bloody complaint on the case, "Where is the left waiter of the Ministry of Works"

A man in a red official uniform knelt down tremblingly.

Emperor Feng didn't lift it, "A mere businessman, he actually made so many people in the court silent, I heard that Chen Nan has colluded with the bandits who are your side clans, and the officials in the court are afraid of the power of your family, how can the grievances of a few people's daughters be compared with the Chen family, which has been standing in the court for a hundred years."

Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Works didn't have a word to say, every word of Emperor Feng's words was extremely slow, but it was like a knife cutting into his flesh, he just kowtowed, covered in cold sweat, and couldn't say a word of the rest, what Emperor Feng said was the truth, and he didn't have any room for argument at all.

It is also a fact that he allowed his family to become a bandit, colluding with coastal merchants and officials, thus monopolizing his own sea trade and earning a lot of money.

Now it seems that his good days are over.

Emperor Feng threw the complaint written in blood in front of him lightly, and when he saw the words written in blood, his head broke out in a cold sweat, and he felt that everything was going to be over, "This is just one of the many cases in the world, God knows how many unclean hands your family has, although that one is far from your blood relationship, but in the end, it is your own family, you are the head of the Chen family, you are not strict in charge, your descendants are not good, you actually became a bandit, you really deserve to be punished!" ”

The left waiter of the Ministry of Industry sweated even more, and directly kowtowed: "Yes, the minister is guilty!" ”

"Nian is in the fact that you have served the imperial court for many years, you have worked hard and made great achievements, and you are degraded to the Ministry of Industry, go ahead, make meritorious contributions, and govern the family strictly in the future, and my descendants will do such unscrupulous things again, I will not be spared."

The Ministry of Industry Zuo Shilang felt that everything was over, but he didn't expect it to be such a punishment that was not light or heavy, and he kowtowed with joy, and the courtiers looked silent, and said in their hearts, if the family is not strict, it can be light or heavy, but it is degraded to a five-grade official, it seems that the Chen family is not the favor of the saints.

Emperor Feng dealt with him lightly, he didn't raise his eyelids, it was as easy as pinching an ant to death, but he was deeply tired in his heart, he sat quietly on the dragon chair, his eyes revealed a little faint luster, after the Xi family left, the civilian forces took the opportunity to raise their heads, but he couldn't find any checks and balances, and everyone colluded with each other.

Most of the people in the DPRK and China are middle-of-the-road, and there are not many people available.

He didn't have any cronies who were completely loyal to him and could use them for himself.

So glancing at these ministers with different expressions, there was deep sadness in the eyes of Emperor Feng.

"Your Majesty, the minister has a book to play!" A loud voice suddenly came out, and it was deafening to fall on the ears of the Wind Emperor, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a man in a cyan official uniform holding a tooth wat and saluting.

"Quasi-play!" Emperor Feng was delighted, the Manchu Dynasty finally saw a vibrant, not so lifeless person, that person raised his head, but it was a fresh face, it seems that he has not summoned this person much.

Lin Shifang lowered his head, although he didn't dare to witness the holy face, but his heart was also pounding, and he felt that his opportunity to develop had finally come, and he said clearly and forcefully: "Your Majesty, the case of the death of the husband of the people's daughter is an example, and it can't shake the foundation of the Wind Country, but the more fierce the coastal floods have affected the maritime trade, and the coastal states and counties have been full of grievances, and in the long run, it will definitely damage Your Majesty's prestige, and even the treasury of the Wind Country." ”

This is said in a reasonable way, the words are to the point, the voice is loud, the Wind Emperor is overjoyed, the court finally came to a person who is not so lifeless and no one dares to offend, the Wind Emperor smiled and said: "Then what do you say?"

It's not that he didn't mention the problem of water bandits in the imperial court, but most of those ministers are some painless suggestions, even if the generals send troops, I'm afraid there is nothing willing to make a big effort, Emperor Feng understands very well in his heart, everyone in the court wants to collude with the water bandits, bully the good people, and monopolize the coastal trade.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks," Lin Shifang said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "cut the grass and remove the roots first, some merchants must be unclean, and they must be searched and investigated." ”

"Okay." Emperor Feng smiled, although he was talking about a problem that everyone knew, but in the court, basically no one dared to say this, "Come forward and take a look." ”

Lin Shifang took a few steps forward.

Seeing him raise his head, Emperor Feng's heart suddenly flashed a faint sense of sorrow: "How can you be a little similar to Xu'er?"

"The minister is not talented, the sister is a concubine in the palace. The minister is also the prince's uncle. ”

Emperor Feng was a little surprised, "Xu'er also has an uncle who is an official in the court, Xu'er, this kid is very low-key, why don't you tell me that you will stay after the dynasty is dispersed, I have something to say to you." ”

"Yes." Lin Shifang's heart was pounding with excitement. He felt that the time when he was developed was really coming.

The courtiers of several major families cast dissatisfied glances at him, but he was not afraid at all, what are they! The king has been unhappy with them for a long time! It's just that the foundation is deep, and some can't be shaken, it's all them, and they can't hold their heads up!

After observing the situation in the court for several days, he was even more sure that the king had long been dissatisfied with those old guys, and the king was the master of the court, and as long as he hugged his thigh, everything was easy to say.

Seeking wealth and danger, Lin Shifang secretly rejoiced, he didn't want to be a five-grade official all the time, for his future, he was very willing to gamble.

It wasn't until everyone was gone that Lin Shifang raised his head and looked directly at the somewhat aging face of Emperor Feng, this face was a little less spirited, and a pair of eyes seemed to have seen through the world, no sorrow or joy, Lin Shifang said secretly, I heard that the king had changed a lot because of the broken affection with the former queen, and sure enough.

It wasn't the moody killing decisiveness he had heard before.

"I'm going to tell you the truth." He stared straight at him.

"What the court said, you really think so"

"Yes, the minister didn't dare to deceive His Majesty, what the minister said was exactly what the minister thought," Lin Shifang said without humility or arrogance.

A smile quietly appeared on the corner of Emperor Feng's mouth: "Do you know who you offended by what you said in the court today?"

"They pressed the ministers to have no future, they only knew that with their cronies, no matter how many talents the ministers had, they didn't look at them,"; Lin Shifang did not shy away from saying, "Rather than doing this for a lifetime, the minister is more willing to fight." ”

The smile on Emperor Feng's face deepened: "I look at the court, only you dare to say this." ”

I have determined that I am a person on the same front as you, how can I not say this, Lin Shifang lowered his head and thought, "The minister wants to fight for wealth, and the minister's sister has been with His Majesty for so many days, but he still has to be cautious and walk on thin ice, isn't it because there is no one in the court?"

"You're honest."

"If I use the words of loyalty to the country as usual, I will not attract the attention of Your Majesty, and Your Majesty must be tired of hearing these words on weekdays, so I will be honest," Lin Shifang raised his head and said conclusively, "People are not sages, who can have no desires"

"Yes, I've seen a lot of hypocrites, and I'm tired of hearing those righteous and strict tones." The Wind Emperor smiled lightly, "Go down, I will let you out for a while to avoid the limelight, if you are really qualified, I will entrust you with a heavy responsibility." ”

"Yes."

The next day, Lin Shifang was sent out to a place far away from the capital to make a Tongzhi, and even if a stone was thrown into the water in the court, it only splashed a few times, and it quickly dissipated.

It didn't take long for no one to pay attention to Lin Shifang.

Lin Shifang is just a five-grade official, he has no foundation, although he is related to Prince Feng Xu, and Feng Xu is also cautious in the court, left and right, after this incident, no one even delves into the reasons behind it.

But Emperor Feng carefully examined his political achievements, and found that he was a usable person, because of his arrogant temperament, he repeatedly contradicted his boss and failed to be promoted, and he also did several beautiful things when he was a five-grade official.

Feng Changqi also received Bai Huan's letter, Bai Huan's letter was full of advice, all of which were concerned about her, Feng Changqi saw that his heart was warm, but the corners of his eyes were very sour, it seemed that Bai Huan knew that she was poisoned, and he was crazy, and he didn't mention when she would return to Meng Li, only let her recuperate in peace.

Feng Changqi deceived her, very guilty.

But there's really nothing to be done about it now.

She really wanted to stay in the Windy Country for a few more moments, otherwise, she and Hualong didn't know when they would be able to meet.

Yu Wuwang also sent her several letters, and between the lines it was vaguely revealed that she was very smooth in Huanqi and would be able to succeed soon.

Feng Changqi is happy and unhappy.

At that time, she will be leaving the Windy Country, and many things cannot be done in the Windy Country.

Feng Changqi thought of someone.

He may help himself.

Feng Changqi came to the building of the Mirror Hall.

Still like that time, some handsome young men were practicing swords, and the building was purely surrounded by a faint cloud of smoke, as if it did not eat the fireworks of the world.

This time, Feng Changqi was not blocked from the door, the gate of the tallest building was open, as if to greet something, and the hall master was wearing a mask and watching them practice swords.

"Oh, the emperor is a rare guest, what wind blew the emperor here today"
