Thrown Into the Wolf’s Den! Zaizai Holds Space In His Hands To Survive the Disaster Year

 The next day, the weather was gloomy and the wind was howling.

 When it was time for the morning court, the emperor had not yet come.

 A group of civil and military officials stood at the foot of the white jade steps and waited.

Taifu Ye turned around and whispered to Xie Suzhi.

"I heard that two secret reports were submitted to the emperor last night. I think someone is going to be in trouble again today."

Xie Suzhi's expression did not change: "Master, don't you know what's going on?"

Taifu Ye lowered his voice: "I didn't find out. This is where the matter becomes serious. Otherwise, the emperor will definitely let some news out."

"But even I couldn't find out the news, which means that the emperor was very angry because of this, so I said that someone is going to suffer today."

 Xie Suzhi coughed twice but did not answer.

Taifu Ye said: "Suzhi, you need to take good care of your body."

 “Thank you for your concern, Taifu.”

As soon as the two of them finished talking, there was a bright yellow guard of honor over there, facing the cold wind.

 “Your Majesty has arrived! Open the court gate and let all the officials enter the court!”

Hundred officials expressed their greetings and shouted long live the emperor.

The emperor's attitude was as usual, and he said warmly: "My dear friends, I'm sorry. I feel unwell today, so I came a little late. It's a pity that you are in the cold."

The ministers didn't dare to say anything and followed the emperor into the Jinluan Palace.

 But some people noticed that the prince usually went to court with him.

Today, Prince Mo Lingwei did not come.

 At the beginning of the morning session, Lord Zhongshu Ling Qi stood up and raised his hands high.

“Your Majesty, I have something important to report.”

“Oh? Qi Aiqing, tell me.”

“Yesterday, I heard from people below that a goddess in the village used witchcraft to harm people and was captured by Princess Funing and Xie Shaoqing of Dali Temple.”

 The emperor laughed: "Is there such a good thing?"

He looked at Xie Suzhi and praised: "Xie Aiqing, your family is really full of talents. After Ningning is born, there will be even more happy events!"

 Xie Suzhi lowered his head, his handsome and cold face without any unnecessary expression.

 Instead, he handed over his hand and said, "I am terrified."

 Zhongshu Ling Master Qi glanced at Xie Su.

Then he said: "Your Majesty, it's too early to say whether this is a happy event or not."

"I sent people to investigate thoroughly, and found out that the person who colluded with the goddess to harm others was the second wife of the Xie Mansion, Mrs. Xie, who is also the younger brother and sister of Prime Minister Xie!"

 The ministers were in an uproar.

The emperor's smile froze: "Is there any misunderstanding in this?"

Mr. Qi said loudly: "I was also afraid that there would be villains in the community targeting Prime Minister Xie, so I investigated thoroughly. So, I found out -"

“The person who caused the witchcraft curse by Mrs. Xie was none other than Fang Qingdai, General Fang, who led troops against the Changliu Kingdom on the border.”

At this time, the courtiers were not only in an uproar, but also looked at Xie Suzhi in surprise.

At that time, Mr. Xie and Fang Qingdai fell in love, which was a good story in the whole capital.

They have been childhood sweethearts since they were young, and because of their common hobby of practicing martial arts, they became a couple.

The two of them had great military exploits for each other. They were famous generals in Cangyun Kingdom. Out of love, the people nicknamed them "Martial God Couple".

 Later, the two families almost got married.

 But who would have thought that Mr. Xie would be tricked into defiling another woman's body.

General Fang left in tears and went to guard the border areas, never to return to Beijing.

 Everyone lamented this past incident.

This time, I heard Mrs. Xie second curse cursing Mr. Xie’s old love.

The ministers even sighed softly, feeling that this move was vicious and really destroyed their conscience.

 The emperor looked complicated.

Zhongshu Ling Master Qi went further and said: "Moreover, I also conducted a thorough investigation and discovered that Prime Minister Xie had known about this matter for a long time."

“But not only did he keep it secret and conceal it, he also protected Mrs. Xie.”

Hundred officials were astonished, whispering to each other, and talking about it.

　　It has everything.

 But they all lamented that "the prime minister shows favoritism and protects his own interests". The military attachés were already furious.

They attacked Xie Suzhi—

“General Fang is a military general who has fought for the Cangyun Kingdom through life and death. He is a woman who is not inferior to men. However, the second lady in your house actually cursed her. Do you still have overall loyalty in your heart?”

"This method is really vicious, and as the prime minister, your Excellency, you have shielded and dealt with Mrs. Xie just because she is his sister-in-law. It is really chilling."

Some generals even punched the emperor and said angrily: "Your Majesty, our generals often escape death when we lead troops on expeditions."

“Cangyun Country is our hometown, but there are people in this family who have cursed and harmed others due to personal grudges. How can we go on expeditions with peace of mind in the future?”

“That’s right, Your Majesty, if you don’t deal with this matter seriously, it will be really hard for me to accept it!”

 Everyone said something to each other, and the emperor had to turn his eyes to Xie Suzhi.

Taifu Ye secretly touched Xie Suzhi's arm.

He lowered his voice: "Prime Minister, if you can't do it, just admit your mistake first and don't make the situation more serious."

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that someone is taking this opportunity to make trouble and attack Xie Su.

Xie Suzhi's expression did not change, and his expression was still as cold as jade, showing calmness and depth.

He stepped out of the queue, raised his hands and said, "Your Majesty, this was originally a family matter. I considered it a family scandal, so I didn't make it public."

“But since Mr. Qi brought it up today, I have to give everyone an explanation so that I can make it clear.”

“After the incident, Xie Shaoqing Ming’an had already arrested the minister’s younger brother and sister into the prison of Dali Temple for interrogation.”

 Everyone was shocked.

 Caught? Xie Suzhi actually killed his relatives with such righteousness!

Mr. Qi was also stunned, then frowned and asked: "It has been more than three days since the incident occurred. Why didn't we arrest him at that time, and only arrested the goddess?"

Xie Suzhi looked at him with eyes as sharp as a blade, and his dark eyes were like a piece of cold frost.

“According to the rules of Dali Temple, the culprit is arrested first, and then the evidence provided by the culprit is traced, and the persons involved are arrested. Xie Mingan acted in accordance with the law. Does Mr. Qi have any objections?”

Mr. Qi was suddenly choked.

 His people only found out that there was nothing wrong with Mrs. Xie Er.

I never heard that Xie Suzhi arrested anyone.

 The emperor raised his hand to calm the mood of the ministers.

“Okay, dear friends, don’t be impatient. I’ll send someone to Dali Temple to find out what’s going on.”

 After a while, Mr. Lu, the commander of the imperial army sent by the emperor to Dali Temple to inquire about the truth, hurried back.

“Your Majesty, what the Prime Minister said is true. I have brought back the registration file of Mrs. Xie Er, who was detained by me.”

 Commander Lu handed over the dossier.

When the emperor saw it, his frown finally relaxed.

 He handed it to the **** and asked him to circulate it to all the civil and military officials to calm their anger.

“Look, I just said it was a misunderstanding.”

“Su Zhi is my loyal minister, how could he seek favoritism to cover up family affairs?”

 Xie Suzhi lowered his head.

He cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I'm ashamed. I really wanted to conceal this matter from the beginning."

 Everyone looked at him in astonishment.

Taifu Ye also frowned and touched Xie Suzhi's sleeve again.

 The old lady lowered her voice: "Let's end the matter here, don't say any more, it won't be helpful to you!"

However, Xie Suzhi held his chest high and his head high, his eyes were blazing, and his figure was as tall and handsome as a piece of pine and bamboo.

“Your Majesty, the second younger brother of me, has accomplished one hundred and nine feats, including more than thirty major and minor battles.”

"He was paralyzed due to an accident earlier and can no longer fight for the country or serve the king."

The emperor hurriedly said: "I know that he is loyal to the emperor and patriotic, and I appreciate him, so I also retain his title of general and allow him to recuperate and rest."

Xie Suzhi's eyes were dark, and his calm tone was a little sentimental.

"He only had one daughter, Yuanjiu. After the witchcraft was discovered, the second brother insisted on divorcing his wife and dealt with the minister's younger siblings in accordance with the law."

"However, when he thought of his daughter, the second brother hesitated. If his siblings were in jail, he was afraid that others would laugh at his children. The father is paralyzed and the mother is a sinner. From now on, he will only be criticized and disliked by others in the capital."

 The officials present were silent.

 We all have children, so when we put ourselves in Mr. Xie’s shoes, we all feel sad.

The military attachés just now could only shake their heads and sigh when they thought of Mr. Xie’s achievements, which had been implicated by his troubled wife.
