It's time for a showdown, all the powerful officials in Beijing are my students!

After An Xin was imprisoned, whether it was Shan Jinzhe, Chi Huanong, or the families of the three generals.

Even the Xuanping Hou Mansion, which held the title of Merit Lord, was suppressed in the court led by Prime Minister Xiao and Duke An.

Later, someone revealed to them that as long as it was announced to the public that they, the children of that family, were no longer An Xin's students, everything would go smoothly for them as officials in the court.

Shan Jinzhe and Chi Huanong looked at each other secretly, then lowered their eyes and pretended not to hear.

General Gao heard this and was restrained by General Yuchi and General Chen before he lost his temper.

The remaining few people also ignored or refuted the person who said this. It seemed that these people related to An Xin had learned to keep a low profile for a while.

If you can handle being suppressed in court, you will take it. If you can't, you will give in. In the end, you will pretend to be sick and hide at home so that no one can find you.

Prime Minister Xiao and Duke An always feel a bit like a dog biting a hedgehog, unable to eat it.

And Jiang Chenxi, who always delivered meals to them, heard from his mouth how these families responded to the menacing Concubine Xian and Prime Minister Xiao's party, who were in the limelight for a while.

An Xin gnawed on the big chicken leg and gave them a thumbs up with a smile.

I thought that the old prince was lying in the palace pretending to be dead and watching these people jumping around. Why are they anxious? They want to watch a show and let everyone watch it together. The country is not theirs anyway, as long as the old emperor is not afraid of someone else taking the seat under his butt.

You are not just waiting wherever you are. If you are caught and thrown into prison, you can still relax.

But An Xin was relaxed, and Emperor Sheng'an was not calm after learning that she was being held in a cell.

How could he let her do things for him when he was unconscious?

"Xiangfu! Do you think she was caught on purpose and tried to find a way out?!"

Eunuch Xiang lowered his eyes, secretly glanced at Emperor Sheng'an who was leaning on the pillow, and twitched the corner of his mouth, wondering how he should answer.

"I heard that someone broke into Mr. An's teacher-student prison a few nights ago and wanted to help them hang themselves with their belts, trying to make it look like they committed suicide out of fear of crime.

Master An was struggling because teachers and students refused to obey. Fortunately, a student on duty at the Ministry of Punishment arrived with someone, otherwise today would have been the day of Master An's funeral. "

Emperor Sheng'an glanced at Eunuch Xiang, who had been following him for many years. His answer seemed to be nothing, as if he had answered nothing.

"Then I will wrong them, teachers and students, for a few more days." Emperor Sheng'an took the fragrant tea handed over by Eunuch Xiang and took a sip: "I have been lying like this for several months, and those people should be almost unable to hold it in anymore." .”

As expected, it was not as expected by Emperor Sheng'an.

A few days later, Prime Minister Xiao and Duke An made a righteous announcement in front of hundreds of civil and military officials.

A country cannot be without its owner, which means that although Emperor Sheng'an is still alive, he can no longer handle government affairs.

After discussion with the cabinet ministers headed by Prime Minister Xiao, the third prince who was born into a meritorious family, except for the good concubine who had no children in the palace, was born to the highest-ranking concubine as the crown prince of Daqian, who would temporarily preside over the affairs of the court.

Jiang Zhou only raised his eyebrows when he heard the news, not surprised at all, and said: "Prime Minister Xiao needs a weak puppet emperor so that he can legitimately control the government.

But idiots like Concubine Xian and Duke Anguo were blinded by their own ambitions and thought Prime Minister Xiao was really attracted by them. "

"Isn't this good?" An Xin lay on the mat provided by Jiang Chenxi and said leisurely: "That person doesn't want to slowly ink with them. This is just what he wants. Now he can serve it all at once."

"Shan Chief, when are we going out?!" Jiang Zhou scratched the back of his hand, "It's so humid here that I even get a rash."

"I want to go out on my own." An Xin closed his eyes and hissed, "Do you still want me to send you off?"

Thinking that there must be chaos outside now, Jiang Zhou shook his head decisively, "Forget it, it's nice and quiet here." An Xin pressed his back molar. The old emperor was not in a hurry. Why was she in a hurry? She turned over and continued to lift her body. .

Anyway, those who were sent to prepare their teachers and students to commit suicide out of fear of crime were secretly dealt with by some kind-hearted guy.

After discovering the existence of such kind-hearted people, An Xin decided to live here permanently after the danger was over.

A kind-hearted person was now sitting in a carriage that was ordinary on the outside but spacious and luxurious on the inside. He raised the curtains of the carriage and looked deeply at the prison where she was located.

The man's unparalleledly handsome face was filled with coldness, and his eyes as deep as cold stars seemed to be able to see through the thick prison wall the man who always had a faint smile on his lips.

"The people guarding the cell are all ready." The man's voice was low and cold.

"Yes, Master, everything has been taken care of. They will not be wronged inside."

The man lowered the carriage curtain and whispered softly: "Let's go."

He just wanted that person to be comfortable living there. As for the other man, it had nothing to do with him whether he was comfortable or aggrieved.

The third prince Si Shuo was forced to the position of crown prince by his mother-in-law and Prime Minister Xiao's faction.

Some people who supported Si Han, the eldest prince, saw that they could not fight against Prime Minister Xiao's faction, so they switched to their side.

This made Taifu Kong, who was trying to win over the courtiers for the eldest prince, so ashamed that he did not dare to see his grandson, who was not close to him.

Si Han sat in the main seat and looked at Taifu Kong with a trace of pity in his eyes.

Originally, he thought that it was Taifu Kong who felt sorry for his mother and asked her to come to the capital thousands of miles away to find relatives and meet bad people, which was why the subsequent unfortunate things happened.

When he went to Nanyu this time and learned all the truth, Sihan couldn't help but sympathize with the Grand Tutor.

"If those people don't support it, they won't support it," Si Han said calmly: "You are tired from running around during this period, so just go back and rest."

"I..." Master Kong saw that Si Han didn't want to talk anymore, so he took back what he said, and slowly turned around and left with a look of shame.

I secretly resented that ever since Kong Xun left the Tutor's Mansion, he gradually ceased to be used in the emperor's favor and became a marginalized person in the court.

It's no wonder that those officials would switch to others if they wanted to. Taifu Kong returned home with a dejected face.

The eldest son, whose official career was no longer smooth due to his influence, and the Taifu's wife, who had been separated from him, saw Taifu Kong return.

Mother and son ate and drank what they should, as if they hadn't seen him.

Taifu Kong sighed, turned around and walked towards the study.

Prime Minister Xiao thought he had control over the imperial guards in the court and the capital, just like reaching into the camp on the outskirts of the capital.

There are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses there. With them, Prime Minister Xiao feels that he can sit back and relax and truly control the entire capital.

And he knew that General Yuchi was a wise general, and it was not easy to bribe him.

And General Gao was synonymous with a brave and foolhardy general. He didn't want everyone to know about recruiting him, so he decided to forget it.

Finally, Prime Minister Xiao set his sights on General Chen, Chen Qibao's father, who was known as a Confucian general and was an elegant man.
