"Xun Lingjun! What are you going to do!"

Cao Zhi was stunned by this attack. He covered his face and was about to scold him. Fortunately, Cui Yan was present and stopped him. "Zijian! Don't be presumptuous! Your Majesty must have your own reasons!"

"you!"

"Zijian, I have something to ask you."

Xun Yu had a cold face and completely ignored his anger. He only said this and then dragged Cao Zhi back. At the same time, he turned his back to Zhong Yao and ordered, "Yuan Chang, you stay here to talk to Ji Gui.

We'll be back soon."

Because Cui Yan was the second in command of the Secretariat, and he also had a good personal relationship with Xun Yu, Xun Yu often came back to his home as a guest and was very familiar with Cui Yan's mansion.

He just dragged Cao Zhi to a small pavilion where few people came, and threw Cao Zhi aside, "Zijian, you went too far this time!"

"ah?"

Until this moment, Cao Zhi still didn't understand what he had done wrong, but Xun Yu's next words sent chills down his spine, and he also swallowed up the anger he had just felt.

Xun Yu said: "Zijian, how dare you do such a big thing behind our backs! Are you desperate for your life and looking for someone to pretend to be the uncle of the country and steal flowers and girls? Are you crazy?"

"Your Majesty, I..." Cao Zhi's words were stuck in his throat, while Xun Yu snorted and continued, "How can you do such a thing? Have you ever thought about what happens if His Majesty finds out?

Yes, his temper is better than yours? But now in the imperial court, Lord Guozhan has military power, and Fu Dian is a demon king. Who can you afford to offend?"

"I……"

"Don't say anything anymore. One more thing, Zijian, you have never thought about this matter being exposed. If Gao Rou knows about it, will he be sad? You are the only one who has won the hearts of the people in so many years.

The person you want is Gao Wenhui, but you don’t want him to be put in danger...what should I do?"

Although Xun Yu was venting the guilt and anger in his heart, his words also contained the meaning of hating iron for not becoming steel, "Do you know that this is not how power is played? You are playing with fire!"

After saying this, everything became clear, and Cao Zhi was completely awakened by his words. Without any nonsense, his knees softened and he knelt directly on the ground.

"Xun Lingjun, please save me!"

"Zijian..." Xun Yu sighed, looking at his appearance and couldn't help but shake his head, "You have gone too far in some things. This time, things will be quite troublesome, but I will try my best to protect you.

"

"Thank you so much, your Majesty!"

Cao Zhi was about to kowtow to him, but Xun Yu kept trying to block him. However, after the two of them pushed each other for a moment, Cao Zhi suddenly glared and made a request, "Your Majesty, Zhi would like to thank your Majesty for saving his life.

There's just one more twist. Please don't reveal this to me, not to Gao Rou or to your father. Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't be able to live a good life in the future!"

Hearing this, Xun Yu sneered in his heart. You guys are worried that you can't do it. To put it nicely, aren't you worried that once this matter comes out, you will lose Cao Cao's trust in you?

Even the most arrogant opportunist in the world can't react as quickly as your brain!

However, this time is a lesson, I can't let you get it easy like this!

Xun Yu thought, and a flash of light suddenly flashed in his eyes. Although he already had a plan on how to deal with this matter, some slight changes would not affect anything.

Thinking of this, Xun Yu still had a cold face and said in a deep voice, "Zijian, I can promise you not to reveal this matter to Gao Rou. But I have to take responsibility for the Prime Minister, so I must tell all this no matter what.

Daoming, just don't worry, I have a way to ensure that the Prime Minister will not give you too many instructions. This is my bottom line and what I can do. If you believe that I will get up now, if you don't believe it... then I have nothing else

method."

Having said this, Xun Yu looked at Cao Zhi's somewhat disappointed eyes and said, "You don't know how much it costs to keep the court from pursuing this matter. That's a price you can't bear and can't imagine."

Do you understand the result?"

Cao Zhi could tell that there was no adulteration in Xun Yu's words, and he could actually guess what kind of strength and energy Xun Yu would spend to help him deal with the emperor.

So after a pause, he said nothing more, but bowed to Xun Yu again before standing up.

Looking at his appearance, Xun Yu felt really uncomfortable. But he had nothing to say, so he could only pat him on the shoulder, sigh and leave.

"Zijian. Just take care of yourself."

Back in the front yard, Cui Yan and Zhong Yao were waiting here. When they saw Xun Yu coming out, they hurriedly greeted him. Cui Yan still felt sorry for his son-in-law and was afraid that Xun Yu would do it again, so he hurriedly asked: "Your Majesty, Zijian."

Is he okay?"

"It's okay. I'm not a martial artist."

Xun Yu said, sighed, and looked at Cui Yan outside for a long time, "Ji Gui. You are Zijian's father-in-law. You should care more about him in many things. Don't just take care of his life."

Daily life and some political matters are not important. What is really important is a person's character."

"What your Lord ordered you to teach me is that your subordinates know it."

Cui Yan could hear the concern and helplessness in his words, so he understood the lesson. Xun Yu nodded and left Cui Mansion with Zhong Yao without saying anything else.

Because he had agreed to Liu Xie's request, it involved a lot of things and there were still many things for him to do, which Zhong Yao couldn't get involved with.

Naturally, after the two left, they went back to the official offices to do their work.

For five days in a row, Xun Yu didn't go home. He took all the relevant officials from Shangshutai and arranged the tax suspension regulations in all regions of the country according to Liu Xie's instructions, and proofread them in detail more than a dozen times before finally finally

written.

Looking at the manuscript in his hand, Xun Yu was really one ahead of the other, but fortunately, in the end, he still fulfilled Liu Xie's requirements while balancing his income and expenditure.

"Finally. It's over."

After putting down the manuscript, Xun Yu sat there and stretched himself, finally able to take a breath. At this time, the clever boy hurriedly brought him hot tea and snacks, and he took a simple bite.

After writing the scroll, he came to the palace.

According to the usual rules, he could meet the emperor directly, so Xun Yu went directly to the outside of Changxin Palace this time. However, just when he wanted to go in, he was blocked by the eunuch standing outside the door.

"Xun Lingjun, this servant has saluted you."

Xun Yu nodded and ordered to the eunuch: "Please go and report to His Majesty, and say that I, Xun Yu, have something important to ask Your Majesty to see."

When the eunuch heard this, a faint smile suddenly appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he looked at him very apologetically, "Xun Lingjun is not a slave, so I won't go help you with your report. It's just that I can't do it today. I can't do it now."

"Why?"
