Lonely non-good minister

Chapter 378 Things are too absurd
She nodded, not surprised, and even smiled and said: "When something goes wrong, there must be a monster. I trust my brother's judgment."

Having such a smart and obedient younger brother, Song Chun felt a lot better: "That's true. It's just that it will be more difficult if you want to be knighted in the future."

"It is difficult to make the northwest prosperous. My father never planned to take advantage of me so much from the beginning. I know well that his kindness is not easy to get. If I disobey one day, these are what I will use. The convenience of exchange will become something he specially rewards me with, and it will stick in my throat." She thought to herself: "But, if my father makes such a fuss today, how will it end?"

It's okay to faint in the main hall, but what happens next?He can't expect the ministers to remain silent on this matter like his son, right?
Today, the matter of canonizing the Imperial Master has been made clear in the main hall. If the reason is not revealed, how can the ministers just let it go?
Song Chun motioned for her to follow him, and then said: "My father cherishes his face the most, and I am afraid that he will not bow his head and admit that he is confused easily, but the ministers will definitely mention it again. This matter is indeed not easy to handle, but, After this incident, it is inevitable that the monarch will lose all his authority."

Song Chun was very satisfied with the result. It was one thing for him to respect Emperor Hong Ming, but Emperor Hong Ming was confused and short-sighted. He was ignorant and procrastinating in government affairs. Not only could he not solve any problems, he would also constantly create new ones, which annoyed him. .

He just wants to run the country without any distractions and do more things that are beneficial to the people of the Wei Dynasty, instead of constantly wiping the butt of Emperor Hongming. Emperor Hongming will lose his power and will definitely be depressed for a period of time. He would rather Emperor Hongming be as he was when he first ascended the throne. He is just looking for pleasure in the palace, and he doesn't want him to suddenly jump out and dictate state affairs.

"How did the Imperial Master make his father willing to clear his name?" Song Yuan was very curious: "I have never heard of the Southern Xinjiang Wizards Association. Could it be that he used other tricks to deceive his father? ?”

Song Chun's face turned cold: "The Imperial Master has some tricks. I haven't dealt with him many times, but he can guess what he is thinking every time. This shows that this person is very good at reading people's hearts."

"Can you be guessed every time?" Song Yuan planned to remind his elder brother: "This is too exaggerated. If it happens once or twice, it's fine. If it happens more times, I'm afraid they won't be good at guessing people's hearts. These southern Xinjiang wizards want to deceive People also know other tricks. They ask gods for divination and claim to have opened their eyes. Will it be as magical as the puppetry technique they heard about a few years ago?"

An idea flashed in Song Chun's mind: "Sky Eye?"

"Well, it means that you can directly see through the other party's inner thoughts." After Song Yuan finished speaking, he frowned: "This idea seems a bit ridiculous, but if the puppet technique can appear, there is no guarantee that there will be more exotic tricks."

Song Chun thought deeply. Song Yuan's statement was a bit absurd, and he had only heard of puppetry. Although he had seen Xu Yingrong in the prison who was good at puppetry, he didn't know how to operate it specifically, so he always believed it with doubt.

"In short, brother, it's better to be on guard in the future. When facing the Imperial Master, don't think about it in your mind. If he can't guess your thoughts after deliberately holding back your thoughts, it means that he can indeed see through people's hearts. .”

Song Chun nodded: "You really need to be more careful."

After making it clear to Song Yuan, Song Chun returned to the East Palace first. After thinking for a long time, he ordered people to go to Tingwei's mansion and sent the deputy envoy of Tingwei.

"Master Huo went to the northwest to investigate the case. Now you are responsible for supervising the affairs of Tingwei Mansion. You should know the people in this mansion best." Song Chun rummaged through the roster of Tingwei Mansion and found a name in the corner of the book. The unfamiliar name was Xu Ying. He pointed at these two words and raised his eyes slightly to look at the deputy envoy: "Where is this Xu Ying now?"

Hearing the name, the deputy's face was flustered for a moment, and then he replied: "Your Highness, Xu Ying is Mr. Huo's accomplice and has already followed Mr. Huo to the northwest to investigate the case."

"Oh? Then why is this person not on the list of personnel submitted by Tingwei's house?" Song Chun closed the book: "Bring her to see the orphan." His tone was not negotiable. The deputy wanted to find a reason to refuse, but when he raised his eyes, he saw Song Chun's expression showed that he could not spit out the words that were pouring into his throat.

Xu Ying was quickly brought into the East Palace. Even though she was wearing the blue official uniform of the Tingwei Mansion and lowered her head to dress like a man, Song Chun could still recognize her at a glance as the one who had testified that Song Yuan was a woman in prison. prisoner.

"Xu Yingrong." Song Chun called her name.

Xu Yingrong's body trembled, and she immediately knelt on the ground with weak legs. She no longer had any trace of her original pride and arrogance. She was full of humiliation, and she had lost all her temper.

Song Chungao sat behind the desk and looked at her: "Huo Ying is reluctant to kill you. I haven't used you in these years, right?"

"Yes." Xu Yingrong was very frightened. She didn't even have the courage to look at Song Chun.

Song Chun was very dissatisfied with her performance. She was so timid and timid. Even if she really knew how to use puppetry, she was now a waste. Huo Ying was really a waste of natural resources. It must be very painful for you, do you want to leave Tingwei Mansion and come to the East Palace?"

"East Palace?" Xu Yingrong then raised her head. She was surprised and frightened. She didn't know what kind of tricks Song Chun was playing. She had been in Huo Ying's hands for three years. She had lost trust in everyone in this era. Tingwei Mansion was The Tiger and Wolf Prison and the East Palace are the pits of the King of Hell, and they are not good places to go.

She looked at Song Chun carefully. He was aloof, dignified and upright. He looked like a good person. Even in her shallow historical impression, Song Chun was associated with justice and honesty.

However, the good people judged by history are not necessarily good people.

Xu Yingrong didn't dare to answer, she lowered her eyes hastily and continued to shrink.

"Huo Ying has the ability to turn you from a death row prisoner to an official in the Tingwei Mansion. Lonely has the ability to make you get rid of all the shady identities and become an upright person. He can also promise you wealth and glory so that you don't have to If you are restrained and tortured by others, you can get rid of Huo Ying."

The last few words touched Xu Yingrong, and getting rid of Huo Ying was what she thought about day and night.

She suddenly raised her head and looked at Song Chun, tangled in her heart. She was not sure whether the Song Chun in front of her could be trusted. She had already made the wrong choice twice. The first time she trusted Liang He by mistake, she helped him wholeheartedly, but after being caught, Liang He Abandoning her directly, she mistrusted Huo Ying for the second time and told her everything she knew honestly, only to be tortured by him in every possible way.

If I make the wrong choice again this time
"I'm afraid your current situation can't get any worse." Song Chun didn't mind reminding her: "It's a blessing for you to work for me. Don't be disrespectful."
