When Su Jin arrived at the Daqing Palace, today's early dynasty had already been delayed for more than half an hour, and the things about the size of the sesame mung beans were almost over, and Zhao Zhen even sat on the dragon seat and dozed off.

It's also very hard to be an emperor, you have to get up very early every morning to come to the court, and you have to take care of so many flower-like concubines in the harem.

Su Jin walked into the hall like a gust of wind without waiting for the inner servants to spread the news, first glared at Xia Zhu fiercely, and then bowed to Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Zhen straightened up and smiled: "Flat, Su Aiqing has a big shelf, so tired that we are all waiting for you here, and your errand is easy and happy." ”

Su Jin said unhappily: "How do we know that the emperor wants to see me today, Weichen's status is low, and the emperor does not reward a big official, and he doesn't even have the qualifications to go to the court, otherwise Weichen won't go to the court every day, then I have to let the emperor wait for me." ”

Zhao Zhen heard that the anger in Su Jin's words was not small, and he no longer teased Su Jin, his favorite time has come, because the ministers are going to pinch again, every time the courtiers pinch each other, Zhao Zhen is always very happy, and he can sit and watch the play, and in the end they still have to invite themselves to preside over justice.

"Su Jin, I summoned you to see you today because the privy deputy Xia Aiqing has a case that I want to ask you, so I asked you to explain it."

Su Jin said lightly: "Deputy Envoy Xia has something to ask Weichen, naturally he knows everything, but I don't know what the case is?" ”

Zhao Zhen glanced at Xia Zhu and signaled that he could ask, Xia Zhu stepped forward with a blank face and said, "Master Su, there was a big case in the city the night before yesterday, I don't know if you know?" ”

Su Jin arched his hand and said: "Lord Xia, there are at least forty or fifty cases in Bianliang City in one day, and I am not the criminal officer of Kaifeng Mansion, nor am I an official of the Criminal Department, how do I know which one you are talking about?" ”

Xia Zhu said coldly: "Naturally, it is the Pinghu Yuzhang Building bloody case, how can the old man ask you about other small cases?" ”

Su Jin said 'oh' and said, "You mean the case where more than 20 people were killed, right?" I heard this, and there was a lot of uproar on the street, saying that the owner of the house was a bad pus-shedding guy who had made enemies with many people, and people were going to take revenge, but I don't know if this was the case. ”

An official on the side hurriedly reminded softly: "Lord Su, that house is Lord Xia's private property......

Su Jin pretended to be surprised, and hurriedly smiled and said: "It turns out that it was Lord Xia who suffered, the lower official lost his words, lost his words, and the hearsay in the streets and alleys Lord Xia should not take it to heart, how could Lord Xia be the rumored bad pus-shedding official, look at Lord Xia's style, he is upright and has a clean breeze on his sleeves, and he is a pillar of the imperial court......"

Xia Zhu looked at Su Jin coldly and said, "Are you finished?" This official is asked by the emperor to ask you, put away your hippie smile. ”

Su Jin smiled: "What a big official, but you were slaughtered in the house, why did you come to ask me?" What a joke. ”

Xia Zhu said: "Master Su, I heard that you bought a batch of firearms from the military department and hid them in the house, right?" ”

Su Jin said with a smile: "Lord Xia is really well-informed, but there is no need to add the word 'heard' to this matter, Xia Guan did buy a bunch of rags in the Shenhuo Camp." ”

Xia Zhu said: "The old man also heard that you used this batch of firearms to set up a big battle to send the Liao envoy back to the country, right?" ”

Su Jin said: "Yes, what do you have to say? Shouldn't you scare the Liao envoys, should you kneel and serve them? ”

Xia Zhu said suddenly: "The old man is not interested in how you deal with the Liao people, that is your errand, and the old man has no right to ask; But the old man heard that you used those firearms to transform a batch of very powerful firearms, which were amazingly powerful when they were tested in the west school field, there were thousands of firearms, and when the salvo was fired, it even destroyed a forest a hundred paces away, and a cannon fired a cannon that razed a mound of earth within a radius of several feet. ”

Su Jin smiled and said, "Yes, there is such a thing, what's wrong?" ”

Xia Zhu sneered: "Then where are these firearms now?" ”

Su Jin said: "In my house, what's wrong?" ”

"With such a powerful firearm, why didn't you hand it over to the imperial court, but took it privately, why is this?" Xia Zhu asked coldly.

The ministers were in an uproar, except for a few people who knew the inside story, most of the officials didn't know anything about how Su Jin used this batch of firearms, Lu Yijian Du Yan naturally knew the inside story, but when the emperor reported it, he said hello, and the inevitable news spread to the Liao State prematurely, losing its deterrent effect, so those who know the inside story can just know it in their hearts, and they are not allowed to publicize it around; This move is also in line with the intentions of Lu Yijian, Du Yan and others, after all, Su Jin's big drama is really exciting, and spreading it is actually helping Su Jin become famous, not to mention it.

The officials generally sniffed out a hint of unusual meaning from Xia Zhu's questioning, as if Xia Zhu was hinting at Su Jin's intention to keep these firearms.

Zhao Zhen sat on the dragon throne and secretly laughed, this Xia Zhu, I don't know what he thinks, he is so dignified that he wants to provoke Su Jin, obviously it is Su Jin's trick to fool the Liao envoy, but Xia Zhu is talking about this matter, and I don't know what kind of bond is formed between the two, and he wants to put Su Jin to death like this.

Lu Yijian and Du Yan squeezed their eyes anxiously, regretting that they shouldn't have told Xia Zhu the inside story before they were fine, Xia Zhu's seemingly ferocious punch was not a place at all, and it was supposed to hit Su Jin's vital point, but unexpectedly hit the steel plate.

Xia Zhu was proud of the bombshell he had dropped, and the reactions of Du Yan and Lu Yijian were regarded by him as praise, and the reactions of the officials also made him very satisfied; The confessions given by Zhao Dehai and Fang Chengzhong last night were really powerful, and the two of them said in unison that the power of firearms was amazing, the woods were turned into scorched earth, and the mounds were razed to the ground. Now that this matter can finally be revealed to the court, see how Su Jin responds, this matter is not clear, you don't have to do it yourself, the emperor will tear this kid alive.

Su Jin was overjoyed, looking at Xia Zhu's smug appearance, he couldn't help but ridicule, he had already greeted Zhao Dehai and Fang Chengzhong, it seemed that the two of them had faithfully kept the secret, but poor Xia Zhu actually used this matter to attack him, which was sad and pitiful.

"How do you explain that? Everyone is waiting to hear your explanation. Xia Zhu couldn't hide his pride in his tone.

I thought that Su Jin would argue strongly, and if I struck while the iron was hot, Su Jin couldn't explain it, but I didn't expect the words that came out of Su Jin's mouth were: "This official just wants to keep this batch of firearms, can you control it?" ”

"What? Licentious! Private firearms, this is a bad heart, you are so bold. ”

"It's about you! I'm going to keep it private, what's wrong with you? Su Jinbao put his arms on his chest, looking like a scoundrel.

Zhao Zhen is about to die of laughter, this Su Jin, just don't explain, but want to tease Xia Zhu, it's really hateful, Xia Zhu is really, he doesn't figure it out in advance, he makes random accusations, in the end, he is still afraid of being shared, otherwise he should go to Du Yan for verification anyway.

"Your Majesty, the minister feels that Su Jin has bad intentions, and it is a big crime to secretly possess arms, so I ask the emperor to authorize me, and the minister will make every effort to investigate this matter." Xia Zhu played.

Zhao Zhen couldn't help but laugh and said, "Xia Aiqing, didn't you want to ask Su Jin about the bloody case in your house?" How did it get to the point again, let's get to the point. ”

Xia Zhu blinked and said, "No...... Emperor...... This is an earth-shattering event, this batch of firearms is huge, and the ministers have listened to the two commanders of Ma Jun and Zhao Fang who came to the event in person, which is a great worry. ”

Zhao Zhen really couldn't bear to see Xia Zhu make a fool of himself, and waved his hand and said, "Are you still finished?" After this matter is retreated, please ask Du Shumi or Lu Xiang to talk to you about it, and you should hurry up and ask the main topic. ”

The second monk Xia Zhu was confused, and Du Yan whispered behind him: "Don't say it, it's fake, don't worry about it." ”

Xia Zhu looked around the hall and saw that many officials covered their mouths and snickered, and Fubi Ouyang Xiu and others did not hide their disdain, so they faintly felt as if something was wrong.

coughed and said to Su Jin: "Since the emperor said that the court will discuss this matter again, then the old man will not mention this matter for the time being." ”

Su Jin smiled and said, "Mention, why don't you mention it, don't you just want me to admit that you want to rebel by keeping this batch of firearms?" What kind of grudge do I have against you, Lord Xia, you want to frame me like this? I have long heard that you are investigating me behind your back, and there is a bloody case in your house but you suspect me for no reason, are you thinking that Su Jin is a soft persimmon and let you bully me? ”

Xia Zhu said angrily: "What is this, the old man is just investigating the case, there are people injured by firearms in the bloody case of Yuzhang Tower, and you are a person with a powerful firearm, shouldn't I ask you?" ”

Su Jin put away his smile and said: "It seems to make sense, then I lost a donkey in my house yesterday, I heard that your Lord Xia is the most addicted to donkey meat, I suspect that your Lord Xia stole my donkey, I want to ask the emperor to make the decision for me." ”

The officials are happy, this Su Jin is really a tricky person, it seems that there is a good show to watch today.

"You...... It simply doesn't make sense, Your Majesty, look at this Su Jin, it's just too unreasonable, but the minister came to ask him at your behest. ”

Zhao Zhen couldn't help laughing, and said with a straight face: "Su Jin, reply well." ”

Su Jin arched his hand and said: "Since the emperor has an order, put aside the donkey's matter for the time being, Weichen must investigate this matter carefully, in case it involves Lord Xia, Weichen is not a person who is afraid of high positions, and he will definitely investigate it to the end." ”

Zhao Zhen glared and said: "You are almost done, the murder in Lord Xia's mansion is indeed someone who killed people with firearms, and it makes sense for him to ask you, so you can just explain it?" Where did so much come about? ”
