Sure enough, as soon as Zhao De finished speaking, someone immediately echoed his words.
They all stood up to guarantee the character of the Ouyang family.
At this time, several cabinet bachelors and court officials stood up. Yan Miao did not know these people, or had even seen them before.
After all, unlike Yan Fei, she interferes in court affairs.
But Murong Haitang still recognized these people as the Minister of Household Affairs.
Seeing the appearance of these people, Liu frowned lightly. These people were all ministers of the imperial court.
Moreover, they are all veterans of the imperial court and have high status. Even if Wen Cheng meets each other, they must treat each other with courtesy.
This is no longer a matter of official position. The prestige of these veterans in the court is very high, and the students they brought out are also officials in the court, which has a great influence.
Although I had thought that court officials would intervene in the Ouyang family's affairs, I never expected that it would be such highly respected officials.
The most important thing is that even Wu Yuan probably can't be too harsh on these people, because they are already veterans who stay at home to take care of themselves.
As an emperor, any excessive behavior towards an old minister who has dedicated his life to the court and spends his old age at home may cause dissatisfaction and turmoil in the court.
Murong Haitang knew that Yan Fei didn't know him, so he took the initiative to come forward and greet her.
"I've met a few old gentlemen." Murong Haitang said politely.
Although those people are no longer in the court, they still know something about the affairs of the court and know that there are two more female officials in the court.
"This must be Murong Haitang. I never thought that a princess from the previous dynasty could serve as the Minister of Household Affairs of the Dawu Kingdom. After all, I am old, and I can still see such an unprecedented thing."
This veteran minister was ridiculing Murong Haitang both inside and outside his words.
He also satirized the new emperor Wu Yuan, and Wu Yuan could also hear this.
He didn't have any impression of these people, but now he has, but it's just not a good impression.
Obviously, these people came here to rely on their old age.
Although Murong Haitang still had a smile on her face, her tone was no longer as polite as before, and she immediately countered: "What the old gentleman said is true, this woman has never been an official in her life, so you always have to
Take good care of your health, be sure to live longer, and take a good look at what we women can do as officials."
The old minister's face suddenly darkened, "How dare you talk to me like this?"
"I don't dare. I just told a fact. Today, Yan Miao and I are here to handle the case under the orders of the new emperor. What are the intentions of these old gentlemen here?"
Murong Haitang didn't want to have so much trouble with these people, and she knew in her heart that someone would definitely impeach her when she went to court tomorrow.
This is the influence of these veterans.
"Humph, you can handle the case, but you shouldn't treat the Ouyang family like this. The Ouyang family has saved countless people over the past hundred years, and they are living Bodhisattvas. By doing this, do you want to kill the living Bodhisattvas of the common people?
I came here today just to find a way out for the common people."
Sure enough, Jiang was still very old, and when he opened his mouth, he put a big hat on Murong Haitang and Yan Miao.
It's simply abominable to use ordinary people as a shield.
After these veterans finished speaking, other aristocratic families also expressed their positions one after another.
Some even threatened that if the Ouyang family collapsed, they would not be able to do business in the capital. The royal family behaved so tyrannically, and they might be attacked one day.
This is to unite and put pressure on Yan Miao and Murong Haitang, or in other words, they are putting pressure on the new emperor Wu Yuan.
Even if Murong Haitang opened his mouth, he could not say anything about these people.
Not to mention, it is a thankless task to argue with these old guys who have dominated the court all their lives and these businessmen who are comparable to human beings.
Murong Haitang was also helpless, and in the end she could only give Yan Miao a look of "I tried my best".
At this time, Murong Haitang actually wanted Wu Yuan to stand up. As long as Wu Yuan was willing to show up, these people would never dare to be so arrogant.
However, Murong Haitang saw that Wu Yuan had no intention of showing up, so she had to ask Yan Miao to think of another way.
Yan Miao nodded to Murong Haitang and then came to the front.
"Shut your mouth!"
In one sentence, Murong Haitang was stunned.
Good guy, you are really awesome. Murong Haitang regretted that he asked for trouble just now and came forward to argue with these.
Maybe what Yan Miao did was right. No, as soon as he swallowed it, there was silence for an instant.
However, after these people were shocked, they immediately criticized Yan Miao verbally and writtenly.
They accused Yan Miao of abusing his power and being arrogant and domineering, and said they would jointly impeach Yan Miao.
But Yan Miao didn't care about this at all. She didn't have any official position in the first place, and she even had the power of arrest after being temporarily appointed.
Seeing that these people dared to argue so fiercely, Yan Miao directly ordered: "Bring Ouyang Shishi to me!"
Sure enough, when I heard that Ouyang Shishi was going to be brought along, the scene became completely quiet.
These people had already inquired about many things on their way here.
First of all, the new emperor was assassinated twice in one night, which shocked the entire capital. It was also the first time that the Guiyuan sect was spread by everyone.
People who didn't know about the Guiyuan sect before were also trying to figure out where this Guiyuan sect came from. How dare they assassinate the emperor?
Those who knew about the Guiyuan Sect were extremely shocked. They had never heard that the Guiyuan Sect could not get along with the emperor of any country.
Then, the new emperor ordered the entire city to arrest people from the Guiyuan faction.
I heard in the morning that many people have been arrested, and they are all quite famous people.
For example, the chef in that restaurant is known as the best chef in the world.
It is said that there is another thief, a very powerful thief.
There are also very famous painters and so on.
They are all well-known figures, but they are all members of the Guiyuan Sect, and they are all locked up in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment at the moment.
Even so, the arrests are still continuing, but some people are panicked. Many people do not believe that those well-known people are members of the Guiyuan Sect, and they are even less willing to believe that they will participate in the assassination of the emperor.
.
But compared with these, the Ouyang family, who was far from being called the Living Bodhisattva by the world, was also included in the arrest list, and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were dispatched to surround the Ouyang family.
Well-informed people like them knew it mainly because of Ouyang Shishi.
As the most beautiful woman in the world, she joined the Guiyuan Sect.
And he actually participated in the assassination of the new emperor Wu Yuan.
This news is undoubtedly quite explosive. If this is true, then the Ouyang family is really in danger.
At this moment, the people present also wanted to hear with their own ears whether Ouyang Shishi was really the same as what they heard.
Soon, Ouyang Shishi, who was as beautiful as a fairy, was brought out, and everyone looked at her.
