Two days later, the Minister, Zhong Ming, and Great Prince were drinking together at night.
Although they had chosen the private rooms of the brothel and had done it quite well to keep it a secret, and that place could confuse the public, they were still discovered.
The one who found them was a retarded official. He was a loyal and honest person, but he had one weakness: a big mouth.
This fool was clearly a bit drunk. When he accidentally knocked open the door of Zhong Ming's side with another man in his arms, he immediately exclaimed.
"Ah!" Master Shang!
"Ah!" And Great Prince! This humble official will participate in Lord Zhong! "Greetings, Great Prince!
That's right, this retard wasn't hugging the girl inside the building, but a man.
Of course, this man wasn't his lover, but … Friend!
That's right, it was the kind of person who was a friend of his!
Moreover, this young official did not come alone. He came with a large group of people.
Amongst this large group of people, there were two who were soldiers, two who studied, two who were younger than him, and one … It was actually a storyteller! It was a mess.
However, from this, it could be seen that this retard's popularity was quite good.
Look, aren't all sorts of people gathered together by his centripetal force?
After that retarded official let out a cry of surprise, the friend who had supported him around the job of telling books in the restaurant instantly quivered and woke up …
Zhong Ming's face turned dark and he was about to get angry. However, when he was about to scold this retard and leave, this retard's other friends all arrived.
Those people, they really were the proverbs of "reunion of beings with their own species".
In this sort of fireworks area, officials coming here were supposed to be 'private servants'. However, they were the best. Seeing that Zhong Ming's official position was higher than theirs, it meant that he was a big shot! Thus, all of them kneeled down, greeting each other!
Zhong Ming's face was very dark, while Great Prince's face was even darker!
Moreover, the two of them were old foxes. From the looks of it, how could they not know that they were being watched? And now, something had happened!
Something really happened! Because the news of Zhong Ming and Great Prince "putting their arms around each other's shoulders" and drinking wine in the fireworks garden spread throughout the Imperial City overnight!
The next day, in the morning court, Emperor Long Yan was furious, although he didn't dismiss Zhong Ming from his post.
But... He was no longer the President. Instead … Great Prince's advisor!
From a Kingdom's Minister to a Prince's advisor... How ironic!
Of course, on the surface, the Emperor wouldn't let people become his aides. However, the end result was like this …
It wasn't that the princes would come to the assembly every day, but in the morning assembly today, there were three of the five princes.
Great Prince, the Third Marquis, and the Fourth Marquis had all arrived.
The three of them didn't look too good …
However, Long Xiaoyuan's mood was a lot better when he saw that their faces were not nice.
The Ministry of Justice was actually a very important place. Of course, it wasn't that the other parts weren't important, but other than managing the criminals in the entire country, the Ministry of Justice had the most important value.
That was … Information!
Among all the tribes, the Ministry of Justice was the place that held the most intelligence!
Having the Ministry of Justice in his hands meant that he could monitor the entire country through the Ministry of Justice!
Zhong Ming was an elder of two dynasties, but this time, he lost too much face.
Most importantly, the timing was very wrong.
Under the leadership of Zhong Ming, the incident with Shi Qingshan had just occurred. Shi Qingshan had yet to prove his innocence, but Zhong Ming, the boss of Ministry of Justice, was so close to Great Prince … What was this?
Who didn't know that Great Prince had a huge grudge with Shi Family back then!
That's right, Great Prince had a huge grudge with the Shi Family.
At that time, Great Prince and Shi Family were both deeply trusted and valued by the late emperor, so there shouldn't be any conflicts between the two families.
However, because they were all used up, there was naturally competition amongst them.
Why were the princes like Great Prince and the others the 'idle kings' of the capital?
Why were they all being "confined" within the imperial city?
It had something to do with the disturbance back then.
The citizens and some officials did not even know the details. However, they knew that the princes were rumored to have rebelled at that time, and the one who ruined their plans was Shi Qingshan!
Shi Qingshan was renowned throughout the world. Not only was he famous on the battlefield, he was also declared illustrious among the commoners because of the chaos that he had brought to an end.
In the end, the late emperor felt brotherly affection and took over two-thirds of the military power held within the hands of the princes.
There were only forty to fifty thousand handicapped veterans in total. That was the reason for the disturbance.
After all these years, with the passing of the late Emperor, those things seemed to have passed.
However, the eyes of the commoners were all extremely sharp. Even though it was over, it did not mean it had never happened.
Furthermore, even though Great Prince and his men did not die and did not successfully rebel, they had become enemies with Shi Qingshan!
Right now, the boss of Ministry of Justice was talking about what happened to Shi Qingshan, but in the blink of an eye, he and Shi Qingshan's sworn enemy were drinking, eating, and eating in the Misty Flower Tower.
What did this represent? Even a fool would know!
Shi Qingshan's reputation was very high among the commoners in the imperial city. It could be said that he had made people walk around for the past two days just like those princes. Long Xiaoyuan had secretly let people walk around and spread rumors that someone had framed Shi Qingshan …
The commoners were already dissatisfied. They did not understand the twists and turns of the imperial government, but they would look at others! They will use their hearts to see which are good officials and which are not!
At this moment, the leader of the Ministry of Justice had already colluded with Great Prince?
That what assassin? If this wasn't framing, then what was!
The people were furious! The group of officials on Shi Qingshan's side were furious!
Zhong Ming and Great Prince also entered the crowd's line of sight... This openly exposed their relationship.
Even though there was no complete evidence that Great Prince had colluded with the barbarians?
However, after what had happened … Even if Great Prince and the others had any plans, they would have to slow down, right? Or was it more urgent? An error occurred while busy?
Regardless of which it was, it was very advantageous for Long Xiaoyuan!
Thus, even though Long Xiaoyuan was angry at the emperor on the surface, he was still very happy.
With this happy mood, he headed towards the Kunning Palace …
This plan was so successful, it had a very strong relationship with Shi Qingzhou's "recommended" retard official!
His Queen was such a virtuous woman, good job!
Long Xiaoyuan really wanted to shout into the sky twice …
