Chapter 188: Court Quarrel
"Sir, the weapons in Anhe County have been moved by our people. The mined iron ore is still being moved. I heard that a lot of iron ore can still be mined."
Yao Tongzhi lowered his voice.
Her lips were covered with a handkerchief, so even someone who understood lip reading couldn't tell anything.
"For the time being, let's find a few people who won't get in the way and mine in the name of the Fifth Prince." Shang Yan turned the ring on his thumb, "The Emperor has recently had some ideas about us Jinyiwei.
Let's have fun, and be tough with the courtiers. Don't let the old emperor think we've hooked up with someone."
"Okay. The Third Prince of Nanli Kingdom will no longer keep an eye on Madam."
"Humph."
Shang Yan didn't forget what Su Rutang said to him last night.
The people of Nanli Country are only that capable.
the following few days.
Shang Yan became lazy and rarely went to serve as a guard.
He had recently made friends with several merchants and bought some valuable items, such as pearls from the South China Sea, jade from a small country in the southwest, and crystal from the East China Sea.
He brought it back and gave it to Su Rutang.
He also said that he would take Su Rutang to appreciate the maple leaves.
The emperor recently heard about Shang Yan's story, and the ministers in the court caught him and said some unpleasant things, saying that a Jinyiwei commander did not share the emperor's worries, but kept around an ominous woman all day, which was really a disgrace to the eunuchs.
None of the eunuchs dared to speak.
They don't have wives to look after, and even if they do have a partner, it's done secretly.
Empress Dou's younger brother Dou Tianya has recently been given an important task by the Emperor and has done several things in a row.
His son married the granddaughter of Shen Zhongshu's sister.
After all, she is somewhat related to Shen Zhongshu by marriage. She also speaks arrogantly.
"Commander Shang is so lucky. That third married woman looks pretty with a nice butt and a nice waist. She would be a good item in a brothel. Even if she can't do anything a man can do, it would still be nice to touch her."
Su Buli looked at Dou Tianya with eyes as sharp as knives.
"Lord Dou was drinking wine at a brothel a few days ago and fell into a bucket of night-blooming incense. After tasting the saltiness of the night-blooming incense, he became bolder."
The people from the Censorate covered their mouths and chuckled.
"Can the night-scented barrel be stuffed into Lord Dou's body?"
"Su Buli, who do you think you are? I forgot that the third wife is from your Su family." Dou Tianya's face was ferocious. He knew that the emperor was tired of Shang Yan during this period.
Now the emperor likes eunuch Du Yue.
"I am the Junior Official of the Dali Temple, a disciple of the Emperor. I am not a "thing" at all. To be honest, Lord Dou is not much different from me. He is not even as good as me, a disciple of the Emperor."
Su Buli was so unruly when he was young.
However, he is proficient in both civil and military strategies.
The emperor hasn't seen Su Buli with such character for a long time.
See this.
I actually started to like him a little bit.
Thinking back to when he was still a prince, he was still a child when he first met Su Buli. The young man with stars in his eyes said all his thoughts on assisting the emperor in governing the country.
Lord Dou was a top military scholar.
"Su Buli, if you dare, challenge me to a duel. I'll take out your bull balls."
The Dali Temple Minister gently touched Su Buli's arm.
"How can we resort to violence in the Golden Palace?"
A loud shout brought everyone back to their senses.
Everyone knelt down hurriedly, "Your Majesty, please forgive me."
The emperor laughed.
"Forget it. If Commander Shang knew that you were arguing over him, he would surely come to court tomorrow."
Lord Dou was still furious and was humiliated by Su Buli in court.
"Humph, for an unclean ..."
Su Buli clenched his fists, wishing he could rush over and beat him up. "Lord Dou's ability is only to humiliate a woman, and he can only tease her behind her back."
He spat at Dou Tianya and said, "My daughter of the Su family is a very capable person. You really dare to say that in front of my second sister. Even a martial arts champion like you can only be shameless."
"Su Buli, you bastard."
"You're not even a dog."
The two were at loggerheads.
Don't give in at all.
The emperor was so engrossed in watching the performance that he almost clapped his hands and cheered.
Seeing Shen Zhongshu looking over, he quickly spoke:
"My dear ministers, if you have anything to say, please speak up in person. It's better this way, so that people won't talk about you behind your back."
Shen Zhongshu knew what was going on.
The emperor is addicted to watching the fun and thinks the matter is not big enough.
The emperor has been becoming more and more out of control lately.
Thinking about cultivating immortality, he also did not forget the love of mortals. He was busy all day long. He said a few words to a Zhongshu Ling and was scolded on the spot.
Dou Tianya wanted to speak more.
He caught sight of the frowning figure in the corner and returned to his original position unwillingly.
"Hmph. I'll tell you next time I meet the third married woman."
Su Buli spat.
"Lord Dou is a brave man. Fight me after the court session. Victory first, and then we'll talk."
Yao Tongzhi touched the jade pendant on the bed.
The voice dropped.
"Why did Su Shaoqing steal our Jinyiwei's job? Everyone knows that we Jinyiwei are the most protective of our subordinates. Lord Dou looks down on our commander, so naturally he looks down on us too."
Dou Tianya's pupils widened.
"You want to deal with me just for a third-married woman?"
"The Jinyiwei never get involved in women's affairs." Yao Tongzhi was handsome and his smile was as gentle as spring breeze. But everyone knew that his methods behind the scenes were very sinister.
"You said our commander was lustful and stupid?"
"That woman uses her beauty to please men, and she doesn't allow anyone to talk about it." Dou Tianya was not afraid of the Su Mansion, but he was extremely afraid of the Jinyiwei.
He looked at the emperor for help, "Your Majesty, I am innocent."
The emperor straightened his face.
"Alright. The court's affairs are in court. Don't talk about this matter outside the palace."
It was obvious that the emperor favored Dou Tianya.
Su Buli had no choice but to agree, but in his heart he was sharpening his knife to cut through the sky.
Wait until you leave the palace.
Dou Tianya bared his teeth at Su Buli in an arrogant manner. Naturally, he was not afraid because he had a backer.
Su Buli didn't say anything.
When Dou Tianya got on the carriage, the horse acted like crazy.
But it crashed into the horse that Su Buli was riding.
Everyone exclaimed.
"What's wrong with the horse? Knowing that the master is not getting along, this beast is venting his anger for the master again?"
"Not really. Lord Dou's horse is not that smart. It takes after its master."
Everyone said a few words.
Follow the horse with your eyes.
Su Buli avoided Dou Tianya's horse, but led the horse towards a crooked tree next to him.
There was a loud bang.
Dou Tianya fell out of the carriage.
"Ouch. Su Buli, you little beast. I won't let you go." Dou Tianya knew that it must be Su Buli who was causing trouble. He was of the same generation as Su Zhixun in age.
It was natural for him to scold Su Buli.
Su Buli jumped over and kicked him.
Dou Tianya rolled over to avoid it, and then flipped over and landed on the ground.
The two men fought against each other.
Su Buli was agile and his every move was filled with anger.
Dou Tianya was also furious, but his body had been hollowed out by alcohol and sex over the years. He no longer had the agility and strength he once had.
After a few moves.
He gradually showed his weakness and was beaten by Su Buli.
Su Buli specifically punched him in the face, again and again.
Yao Tongzhi was standing not far away, and the evil man beside him looked at him with a gloomy look. "Tongzhi, Dou Tianya was beaten up by Su Shaoqing, when are we going to arrange this meal?"
"Since Su Shaoqing came openly, we will do it secretly. We will beat him as soon as the wound on his face gets better."
"Row."
Shang Yan was generous to his subordinates and was clear about rewards and punishments. He gave the Jinyiwei more money, not less, and he was a capable man.
Bringing the once disunited Jinyiwei to its current status.
Everyone in the Jinyiwei admired him very much.
Hearing that Shang Yan and his wife were being ridiculed, the Jinyiwei people set their sights on the Dou Mansion.
Someone called Dou Wenyuan over, "Your uncle was beaten by Su Shaoqing, go and get your uncle back."
Dou Wenyuan is a bastard, but he is also sensible.
Hearing this, he shrank back, "Just for what my uncle said, Su Shaoqing deserves to be beaten no matter how hard he tries."
Shen Zhongshu came out.
The Minister of Personnel next to him spoke:
"Master Zhongshu, don't you want to say a few words?"
"Su Shaoqing is not happy that Su Shi is marrying Shang Yan, and he is already very angry. Plus, too many things have happened recently, so he is venting his anger through Dou Tianya's matter." Shen Zhongshu walked in another direction, "It's good for young people to vent their anger."
The Minister of Personnel was puzzled.
Shaked his head and left.
What happened outside reached Shang Yan's ears, and he asked someone to keep it secret from Su Rutang.
But Su Rutang still heard it.
Su Rutang didn't care about these words.
She had heard the most unpleasant words before, but they could not hurt her at all.
"Madam." Yuan Ming came over and saw Su Rutang standing at the door, and hurriedly greeted her.
Shang Yan knew that Su Rutang had heard it.
"Rutang. Why don't you come in?"
"You have to come in." Su Rutang walked in.
Shang Yan naturally held Su Rutang's hand and said, "I'm going hunting outside the city this afternoon. Will you come with me?"
