Chapter 287 Chapter 287: The Emperor Doesn't Matter
When Emperor Mu Wu was the prince, he already understood that it was impossible for officials to keep their hands clean and clean.

When the time is right, you have to give them a little bit of oil and water, so that they can do their jobs well.

As long as it is not too much and does not harm Chao Gang, he will turn a blind eye and close his eyes, and will not pursue too much.

"Brother Huang, don't worry, I will always leave a few people for you." Ye Siheng said, "If there are not even these few people in a court, the country will be exhausted."

Emperor Mu Wu glanced sideways: "Although you have grasped the handle on these people before, you never planned to attack them. Why are you so cruel this time?"

Ye Siheng didn't hide it, and revealed his plan.

Emperor Mu Wu frowned even more when he heard it, and couldn't help scolding: "You are too nonsense. You made such a big fuss just to find out the person behind the scenes? You have already arrested several companies without any results. If you make a fuss again Go down, how should it end?"

He was afraid that Ye Siheng would be too dazed, so he refused to stop.

Ye Siheng didn't care, "Then continue to catch."

Emperor Mu Wu finally got angry, "You are ignoring the law, Brother Ninth, you have always done things safely, how can you be so rash now?"

No matter how high the credit is, no matter how powerful the power is, there are times when it cannot be suppressed.

There was a cold light flickering in Ye Siheng's eyes: "Brother Emperor, don't you think your younger brother has had fewer enemies these years?"

Emperor Mu Wu choked.

He was ashamed.

Because there were many things that were inconvenient for him to do, it was Ye Siheng who did it for him. In the eyes of some officials and common people, Ye Siheng was a ruthless King of Hades.

However, Ye Siheng had punished those officials who had broken mouths before, and after such a short-term incident, Emperor Mu Wu was afraid that he would not be able to suppress those memorials to impeach him.

Helpless, he had no choice but to change direction:
"But the people you arrested are all against the Anyang Houfu, and how do you make others think of the Anyanghoufu? Have you forgotten what the poor sect did when Chu Huan was framed?"

Ye Siheng's originally resolute eyes were shaken a little.

As the so-called Ai Wu Ji Wu, he wanted to find out the people behind the scenes and ensure the safety of the Chu family, but he didn't want to go through this time and make more enemies for the Chu family.

However, he soon became concerned, and said, "Don't worry, Brother Huang, I already have a countermeasure."

Emperor Mu Wu raised his eyebrows: "Really?"

"Really." Ye Siheng nodded.

When Emperor Mu Wu heard the words, he no longer worried.

He just went to the court meeting and said a few more words, and he was already a little tired.

He sighed in his heart, he had to accept his old age.

Ye Siheng went to the cabinet to discuss matters, and Emperor Mu Wu took the opportunity to rest.

At this time in previous years, Emperor Mu Wu would go to the palace to escape the summer heat, but now he is often sick, and going to the palace is a waste of time and money, so he will stay in the palace this year for the summer.

But in the summer of the palace, it was okay in the morning, but in the afternoon, it was sultry and dizzy.

Today, even if there are several ice basins in the hall, it is hard to beat the heat.

Originally, the imperial physician had urged him to quit, but the weather was so hot that the sun almost melted the ground, he was already dressed thinly, but his inner clothes were soaked, how could he bear it?

"Bring me a bowl of iced sour plum soup." Emperor Mu Wu ordered.

The head eunuch hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, think twice, you can't eat this cold food."

Emperor Mu Wu looked impatient, "I already eat very lightly on weekdays, and now I can't take a bite of ice to relieve the heat?"

"Your Majesty, bear with it."

The chief eunuch quickly waved his hands and asked the eunuch to fan the side of the ice basin to disperse the cold air, so that the hall could be cooler.

But Emperor Mu Wu has been suffering for many days, if he doesn't eat another bite of ice today, he is afraid that he will die of heat in this palace.

With a cold face, he slapped the table heavily with his hands, and the Four Treasures of the Study on it trembled.

"If you don't obey orders again, I will cut off your head."

The chief eunuch showed embarrassment: "Even if the emperor cuts off the head of the servant, the servant will not take it."

He could keep in mind the advice of the Ninth Princess and the imperial physician.

Emperor Mu Wu gritted his teeth and didn't really want to chop off the chief eunuch's head, after all, this is an old man who has served him for decades.

But he was a thief, and when the head eunuch and his disciples changed shifts, he said, "Quick, bring me some iced sour plum soup for one night."

The young apprentice's name was Fushun, and when he heard this, he bowed in fear: "The emperor please spare the servant. When the master goes back to rest, I will strictly urge the servant not to let the emperor eat cold food."

Emperor Mu Wu glanced at him coldly: "I can't bear to punish your master, so why don't I also want to punish you?"

Fushun trembled.

Companion to a king is like companion to a tiger, he really realized it.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me..."

"Half a bowl, I only drink half a bowl." Emperor Mu Wu backed down a step.

Being an emperor, you can't eat this and that, it's boring enough.

Fushun is still in a dilemma.

Emperor Mu Wu was furious, and he really asked the guards of the feather forest to drag him down and beat him twenty-five times.

Before Fushun was beaten, he seemed to feel the pain in his buttocks. He hurriedly said, "My servant will go get it immediately. Your Majesty, wait a moment!"

Emperor Mu Wu raised the corner of his mouth: "Go quickly."

He waved his hand and asked Habayashi to retreat.

However, after Fushun left the Golden Palace, he did not go directly to the Imperial Dining Room. Instead, he sent a young eunuch to the cabinet to invite His Royal Highness.

He got the sour plum soup from the imperial dining room, and he deliberately walked slowly.

Back at the Golden Palace, Emperor Mu Wu was already impatient.

Although it was evening, the heat was still strong.

"Hurry up." Emperor Mu Wu beckoned, he couldn't wait.

Fushun had no choice but to take the sour plum soup out of the food box, and put the small ice cubes in another white porcelain bowl, which had already melted a little after walking for such a long distance.

He put two or three ice cubes into the sour plum soup, but Emperor Mu Wu shouted: "Put a few more ice cubes, two or three ice cubes are not enough."

Fushun bit his head and said: "Your Majesty, if there are too many, it will be too cold."

Emperor Mu Wu didn't want to hear him babbling, so he did it himself, adding five or six more ice cubes.

Just wait for a while, this sour plum soup is already cold.

Emperor Mu Wu swallowed his saliva, wanting to drink it up in one gulp.

"Hold on, Your Majesty, let the eunuch take a sip first." Fushun hurriedly stopped.

Emperor Mu Wu found it troublesome, but remembering that he had been poisoned by chronic poison before, he couldn't help but feel lingering fear. He didn't hesitate much, so he asked the poison test eunuch to hurry up.

The poison testing eunuch didn't dare to neglect, took two sips and waited quietly for a while, nothing happened.

"Your Majesty, there is no problem with sour plum soup."

"Hey!" Emperor Mu Wu felt depressed when he saw that most of the ice cubes in the sour plum soup had melted.

Fortunately, it is still cold, so you can drink it happily.

As soon as he picked it up, Ye Chengyan's voice sounded outside the hall: "Father!"

Emperor Mu Wu suddenly had a headache, he just wanted to drink a bowl of sour plum soup, why is it so difficult!

Never mind, let's take a sip first!
