"Why would the prime minister say such a thing?" Shen Yu couldn't remember any intersection between himself and the prime minister.

"I didn't hide the methods that Ayu gave to the Prime Minister," Shang Junlin put down the depression, "The Prime Minister should be happy when he sees it."

Shen Yu was noncommittal about this result, and turned to ask another matter: "Has Your Majesty's interrogation of Lord Feng and the mysterious force caught have any results?"

Shang Junlin: "Feng Pingqi has a result. This time he just listened to the orders of that power, and doesn't know much about the internal affairs of Subei."

Shen Yu: "He doesn't know about Beimo people?"

Shang Junlin: "Yes, the result of several interrogations is the same. He only provided information about the disaster relief of the imperial court to the other side, and then 'by the way' helped the other side block the documents from Subei."

Shen Yu: "What benefits did the other party promise?"

"Oh," Shang Jun sneered coldly, "it's nothing more than that, wealth, power, or other things, there is always one thing that can impress him."

Once something like craving arises, it doesn't go away easily.

"Feng Pingqi was able to join the cabinet back then, and there were those people who helped. In return, he needed to do things for those people. Spreading rumors that were unfavorable to me was one of them, and the matter of Subei was also one of them." Long hair, added.

Hearing this result, Shen Yu was not very surprised. There were rumors that were unfavorable to Shang Junlin from the beginning. The other party had been dormant for many years, and he was still an important official of the court. Even if Shang Junlin did not have the habit of explaining to others, Mr. Feng should not have any secrets. Know nothing.

The more you know, the easier it is to find out what you can do. Half-truths have always been the hardest to be pierced. Because you know the inside story, what is the "truth" made up for the common people? The reliability will be very high.

"What about King Yue, what is the connection between them and King Yue?" Shen Yu didn't forget that there was another King Yue who tirelessly smeared Shang Junlin.

"For the time being, there is no evidence to prove that there is any connection between them. Feng Pingqi also refuses to admit that there is any communication between him and the King of Yue. There is no sufficient evidence, and there is no way for the Ministry of Punishment to force him to confess guilt. For other crimes with conclusive evidence, he All confessed."

"What about the other force that was caught, did they confess anything?"

Shang Junlin shook his head: "That person is very hard-mouthed. After so many days of trial by the Ministry of Punishment, he can't ask anything other than smearing Zhen and Subei."

"Master Feng gave me the medicine when they were instructed by those people? Did they also do it when I got sick outside the palace?"

Shen Yu's suspicion was the same as that of Shang Junlin. After catching the person, Shang Junlin immediately asked people to interrogate the matter, and the result was similar to what they expected.

"They admitted it, but when they asked them why they did it, they started to look at other people. I was very concerned about the reasons inside. When I chose you to enter the palace, Master Feng was one of the driving forces. If I really don't want you to enter the palace, Palace, they should have excluded you from the beginning."

When choosing the candidates for the palace, as the only son of Zhenbeihou, Shen Yu should not have been considered on the list, but his name was on the list, and he finally entered the palace.

"What happened at that time? Your Majesty has always refused to choose someone to enter the harem. How did you agree that time?" Shen Yu was still very curious. After two lifetimes added up, Shang Junlin agreed once.

"I can't explain it clearly. At that time, the court was arguing so loudly that I was very annoyed, so I let go. Now, it seems that I was relieved at that time, otherwise Ayu would not have entered the palace." Speaking of this, Shang Junlin said A little fortunate.

"If it wasn't me but someone else who entered the palace, what would your majesty do? Would your majesty and him be like us now?"

"How is it possible," Shang Junlin laughed, "I originally planned to find a palace for him to live in, aren't they going to send someone in, I can do what they want, but how is this person's life in the palace? It's not that they can control, I won't care, let alone treat him like Ayu."

In this world, only depression is special.

Shang Junlin thought, I'm afraid those people didn't expect that the people they sent to the palace with all their hard work, not only did not meet their expectations, but also brought them a lot of obstacles.

The Minister of the Ministry of Industry borrowed a few people from the Ministry of Rites to help with the assessment. This is the first time the Ministry of Industry has done this kind of thing. The Minister of the Ministry of Industry is very picky. In order to ensure that every process is correct, during this period of time Watch closely.

Those who are interested in participating in the assessment are eagerly awaiting the arrival of the final day.

A few well-connected people got together and talked about the assessment.

"If I can pass the exam, I will also be a member of the Ministry of Industry in the future, and I will save face if I say it out."

"Have you seen the assessment process? I thought it would be similar to the imperial examination at first, but I didn't expect it to be completely different. I remember that one of them was to show what you are good at in the assessment. Do you have any ideas?"

"What I'm good at? I'm good at blacksmithing. Is it possible that I have to strike iron during the assessment?"

Everyone is looking forward to this test.

The court is still busy with the affairs of Subei and Lord Feng.

Knowing that Master Feng had not colluded with the people from Beimo, the people in the DPRK and China were severely relieved. Taking this opportunity, Shang Junlin cleaned up the forces in the DPRK and China. His actions were so great that the ministers paid attention to In this matter, have not noticed some changes in the people.

For example, several major private bookstores have jointly produced a very basic literacy book, which is mainly sold to ordinary people. For example, in addition to the People's Daily in the capital, another kind of newspaper has quietly appeared.

Different from the People's Daily, this new newspaper only tells some interesting folk anecdotes, as well as some storybook stories, which are obviously more entertaining. A newspaper is not expensive, and many literate people buy it out of curiosity. Look, the storytellers in the restaurants and teahouses have developed a new sideline - newspaper readers.

These changes have not attracted the attention of the aristocratic family for the time being. Their attention is focused on the imperial court. Lord Feng is a big tree, and the tree has fallen and scattered. The imperial court has undergone tremendous changes because of his downfall.

At times like this, everyone hopes to reap greater benefits.

Shang Junlin watched their open and secret fight with a cold eye. It was not the first time that such a situation had been staged in front of him.

The disputes between Beijing and China will not affect Subei.

Based on the clues given by Yao Ji, Fang Jun carefully checked the businessmen and found that they all have something in common with Boss Sun. They all suddenly rose up at a certain time period, and then controlled Subei at the fastest speed. business world.

Subei is located in a remote location, and its business development is far inferior to that of the south. This has also resulted in the fact that apart from these big businessmen who are inextricably linked with Boss Sun, the others are all small businessmen with little influence.

Fang Jun told He Chengyu and Jiang Huaiqing about the information they found.

He Chengyu has gained the trust of Boss Sun. During this period of time, he has met many businessmen one after another, all of which Boss Sun has drawn from.

After comparing with the news sent secretly by Mr. Fang, the two found that the degree of overlap between the two sides is very high.

"It seems that these people are also insiders." Jiang Huaiqing clicked on the table.

"The third transaction went smoothly, and Boss Sun's defense against us was minimized. It's almost time to close the net."

Before the fourth transaction, Boss Sun came to visit.

"This time, something different is needed over there."

He Chengyu poured tea for the two of them and pushed one of the cups in front of Boss Sun: "What is it?"

Boss Sun lowered his voice and said a few words, and seeing He Chengyu's face changed slightly, he patted his hand: "I know you have a way, and the price you give there is also high, if you can make it this time, you can earn enough for three years. ."

"It's not that I don't agree, it's just that these things are not easy to deal with," He Chengyu said in embarrassment, "and the risk is very high. I do have some connections, but there are too many and the risks are too high..."

Boss Sun has been observing the expression on his face, and upon seeing this, he lowered his voice again: "So the price they give is high, and if you cooperate with others, you also have to take risks, and what you get is far less than this time. Amount, you have done business with them several times, you can feel their generosity, if I hadn't really regarded you as a friend, I wouldn't have called you on purpose."

He Chengyu seemed to be persuaded, with a hesitant expression on his face: "I need to think about it."

"Okay," Boss Sun didn't push too hard. "Tell me when you think about it. We're still waiting for a reply."

After seeing Boss Sun out, Jiang Huaiqing sat down where Boss Sun had just sat: "It's a pity that such a good tea is cheaper for him."

"If Huaiqing likes it, I'll ask someone to send some more."

"Why do you need to spend money, I just said casually, this is all coming to an end."

After they came to Subei, they directly changed their identities and approached Boss Sun. In order to avoid unnecessary changes, the communication ultimatum was temporarily placed in the hands of Mr. Fang. No matter how long it took, Jiang Huaiqing would almost feel that he was a follower. The elder brother went out and learned a wealthy boy.

Everything on Subei's side was proceeding in an orderly manner, and the turmoil in the capital caused by Lord Feng's sack of horses gradually calmed down.

The weather is getting cooler, and the annual autumn hunting time is slowly approaching.

Autumn hunting is the tradition of Da Huan, and it is also a rare continuation of the project after Shang Junlin ascended the throne. The court began to prepare for the autumn hunting.

Before the arrival of the autumn hunting, Shen Yu's birthday came first.

Zhenbeihou still didn't give up taking this opportunity to repair the relationship with Shen Yu, he wrote several letters to the palace, and Shen Yu was all piled aside and did not open.

"Marquis Zhenbei hasn't given up yet?" Shang Junlin asked, looking at the letter that was still in the corner by Shen Yu casually.

Shen Yu sneered at the corners of his lips: "If I don't fall out of favor for a day, he won't give up for a day. The Shen Qingran he liked was given up by himself, and now the only one who can bring benefits to Zhenbei Houfu is me. ."

"Ayu doesn't want to ignore it, it's just a mere Marquis of Zhenbei, how can it be as happy as Ayu?" Shang Junlin sat next to Shen Yu and handed him a brochure.

"This is?"

"Sent from the feudal lord's fief, see if there is anything else you want."

Shen Yu opened the booklet, and inside it was the sorted list, which was a birthday gift from various vassal kings to him.

In order to do what he likes, there are basically all kinds of treasures in the roster. Shen Yu was about to say something, and suddenly there were more people in the room.

The leader of Hidden Dragon Guard was half-kneeling on the ground, and there was no emotional fluctuation in his voice: "The subordinate did not do his job well, and he brought that person to the capital and let him escape, and the subordinate voluntarily took the punishment."
