"Mr. Ye! Does Mr. Chief Assistant know about your relationship with Suo Yu?"
Mu Feng asked with a serious look.
Ye Hongbo was stunned and said awkwardly: "The old man doesn't know about this. After all, this is my family scandal. I can't just publicize it! If you hadn't come into contact with Suo Yu's evil, you wouldn't have known about it!
"
Mu Feng sighed softly and said, "No wonder the chief assistant didn't mention anything about you. It turns out he doesn't know about your relationship with Suo Yu!"
Ye Hongbo said quickly: "Boy! Don't talk nonsense. If you let the old man know about this, I will never end it with you!"
Mu Feng said seriously: "Mr. Ye! I must report this matter to the Chief Assistant!"
"You..." Ye Hongbo's eyes widened angrily.
"Mr. Ye! Haven't you realized the seriousness yet?
There is an ancient demon saint sealed under the Dragon Burial Cave!"
Mu Feng looked around, sent a message to Ye Hongbo, and continued: "And Suo Yu is helping the emperor to do evil and wants to release the ancient demon saint! This matter is of great importance!"
Ye Hongbo frowned slightly and said through the voice: "I know about this, don't worry, I will stop him in my own way!"
Mu Feng shook his head and said through a message: "You can't stop it! Because standing behind Suo Yu are the five current majesties!"
Ye Hongbo fell silent. When he learned that Suo Yu was involved in the Dragon Burial Cave, he was shocked and even sad.
He had always known that the Five Emperors were planning major events related to the Dragon Burial Cave, and Suo Yu was involved. He had actually already guessed that the Five Emperors were behind Suo Yu.
This matter is too big. If you are not careful, your reputation will be ruined and you will die without a place to die.
Although Ye Hongbo never wanted to see his nominal son-in-law because of Ye Zhishan's incident, in fact, he secretly cared about Suo Yu. After all, this was the person his only daughter loved most.
"Mr. Ye! You should also know that when the ancient demon saint breaks the seal, the ancient demon clan will be released, and then the entire continent will be devastated! The five emperors have long been bewitched by the yaksha, and they are aiding the evil spirits without knowing it!"
"The only flaw the Five Emperors have now is Suo Yu! As long as they rebel against Suo Yu, they can destroy the Five Emperors' plan and destroy the ancient demon saint's breaking of the seal. Only then can the continent avoid the destruction of all life!"
Mu Feng shouted sternly.
Ye Hongbo slowly raised his head, looked directly at Mu Feng, and found that the latter's eyes were full of determination. He smiled bitterly and said: "No wonder the old man thinks highly of you, your personality is really similar to his when he was young.
Don’t worry, I will tell him about this!”
Mu Feng cupped his hands towards Ye Hongbo and said, "Then thank you, Mr. Ye! By the way, when you go to see the Chief Assistant, give him this space ring. It contains the information I wrote about instigating rebellion against Suo Yu.
Strategies and what you need!”
Ye Hongbo took the space ring and was about to speak, but found that Mu Feng had already left.
"This kid..." Ye Hongbo shook his head and stared blankly at the space ring in his hand. After hesitating for a long time, he finally left the library and headed towards the cabinet.
After walking out of the Hanlin Academy, Mu Feng went straight towards the God Forging Tower. He was a little worried that Ye Hongbo would not go to Cang Hongshen.
Thinking of this, Mu Feng took out the jade slip and sent a message to Cang Hongshen, and then felt a little relieved.
"Scholar Mu!"
Not long after Mu Feng walked out of the Hanlin Academy, Mu Feng met Xia Changxue who came in a hurry.
Behind Xia Changxue, Chen Zhong and Ji Chun were also following, but Mu Feng found that the faces of these three people were not very good-looking, and they looked gloomy.
"What's wrong with you?"
Mu Feng asked.
Xia Changxue hesitated to speak, but Chen Zhong said in frustration: "Master Mu! In the past two days, nearly half of us from the Hanlin Academy have left! The three of us went together today to persuade those who left, but the result was
……""Um?
How is this going?"
Mu Feng was stunned and asked quickly.
Xia Changxue's beautiful eyes flickered, and she said sadly: "Two days ago, the Six Ministries, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Dali Temple, the Zongren Mansion and other power agencies all offered generous terms and began to recruit members of the Hanlin Academy and the Cabinet!"
Mu Feng had a bad premonition and said in a deep voice: "What conditions!"
"Any Hanlin Academy official who changes his family's salary will be twice the original salary and will be rewarded with an imperial weapon! And for cabinet officials who change their family, their salary will be three times the original salary and they will be rewarded with two imperial weapons!"
Ji Chun's face was gloomy.
Mu Feng's heart sank. It's no wonder that nearly half of the Hanlin Academy has left. The money and silk are so touching. With such a generous reward, it's no wonder that some people can't help but leave.
Most of those who join the court as officials do so for fame and fortune. Now that other power agencies are offering such big temptations, who would not be tempted?
"Muda people! How should we deal with it?"
Chen Zhong asked with a sigh.
Mu Feng frowned slightly. This matter was very difficult for him. Although he was a Hanlin scholar, his salary was set by the imperial court early. He was not qualified to change it. Even the chief minister of the cabinet did not have this right.
, only the Five Emperors Palace can do it.
Of course, their cabinet and the Hanlin Academy can use subsidies to retain officials who are leaving, but this is obviously a temporary solution rather than a permanent solution. If the Six Ministries and the Metropolitan Procuratorate continue to increase conditions, then are they going to have a price war with them?
And as far as Mu Feng knows, the cabinet has always acted with integrity, and Cang Chief Assistant cannot tolerate a grain of salt in his eyes. Not to mention that the cabinet treasure house does not have so many resources to fight a price war with so many power agencies, even if Cang Chief Assistant is there
will do so.
"Wait a minute, I'll ask the Chief Assistant about this!"
Mu Feng took out the jade communication slip and sent another message to Cang Hongshen.
After a while, he received a reply from Cang Hongshen. The content was very simple, with only four words, which was 'let nature take its course'.
Mu Feng thought for a while, and although he still didn't quite understand the meaning of these words, he still showed these four words to Xia Changxue, Chen Zhong and Jichun.
“Let nature take its course?
Don’t you, Mr. Chief Assistant, want to take care of it?”
"Yes! This is a big deal! If we ignore it, wouldn't everyone in the Hanlin Academy be wiped out?"
"..." Xia Changxue, Ji Chun and Chen Zhong were shocked. There were complaints in their words, but they did not dare to object to the words of the chief minister.
Although Mu Feng didn't understand Cang Hongshen's purpose of doing this, he felt that his trust in the latter was justified.
"Three! I believe in the Chief Minister. You must know that the Hanlin Academy and the Cabinet were both founded by him and are his hard work! Do you think he will really ignore it?
In my opinion, every step he takes has his own reason!"
Mu Feng said calmly.
Xia Changxue and the three people who had originally complained were stunned, and then lowered their heads in shame.
Yes, what Mu Feng said is correct. The chief minister is the founder of the Hanlin Academy and the cabinet, and a veteran of two dynasties. He is as wise as a monster and scheming. I think this must be reasonable, but
