Xu Yan looked at the Minister of Rites, and his eyes were clear: "I have answered this question last time. You didn't ask any questions at that time, so I thought you had no problems. Now it seems that you didn't understand what Gu said at all, right?"

The Minister of Rites was criticized by Xu Yan for a moment, and his face remained unchanged, and he continued: "Your Majesty is such a bad word. This was the first time when Your Majesty said it last time, and it was normal for me not to react for a moment. But now that I have reacted, I feel that it is really difficult to realize what Your Majesty said."

Fortunately, Xu Yan didn't argue with him about right or wrong. She asked lazily: "In your opinion, is there any good solution to this matter?"

The Minister of Rites was afraid that he had practiced this in his heart for thousands of times. When Xu Yan asked him, he said without hesitation: "My subordinates have searched for countless men from Xu for Your Majesty, but none of them can enter Your Majesty's heart. Now that Your Majesty can marry King Liang, he must have found his sweetheart. Such a good minister and the people of Xu are unwilling to destroy it."

When Xu Yan heard this, he knew what he was going to say next. Sure enough, he paused and continued: "The State of Xu certainly needed a capable person to manage political affairs, but this was based on the fact that Your Majesty could extend his descendants for Xu. Now that Your Majesty has difficulty deciding who is more important in private affairs and official affairs, it is better to choose private affairs between the ministers. Xu's State of Xu has many capable people, and there are many people who can share the worries of Your Majesty; and the only one who can win the eyes of Your Majesty is that!"

Xu Yan almost thought that he was really saying this because he was kind to him. Every word and sentence was for her, and he could even taste his helplessness after listening carefully. It seemed that he was quite passive and reluctant to let her step down. It was for her happiness that he had to do this, and Xu Guo also fulfilled her. Seeing that the ministers in the audience agreed with him, he felt that he was so magnanimous and considerate that he had taken care of her emotions, Xu Yan couldn't help but feel chilled.

The most terrifying thing in this world is that you even believe in the lies you told. Xu Yan almost couldn't help but applaud the Minister of Rites. However, under the eyes of everyone in the audience, she still endured it back. She raised her eyebrows and said to him in a few ways: "Gu also thought of what you thought, so at the beginning, Gu mentioned the matter of surveillance of the country. If Gu remembered correctly, Gu personally selected a minister to take charge of the country."

When the Minister of Rites heard that Wenliang was mentioned, he knew that Xu Yan was going to counterattack. He did not leave Xu Yan with a chance to breathe, and continued to attack her words and said: "Your Majesty's good deeds naturally know. But what Your Majesty didn't know was that just a few days ago, the young state of the governor took advantage of the convenience of his position and actually sneaked into the harem to have an affair with Your Majesty's personal maid! How could such a person who was in trouble with the palace to allow him to continue to make trouble here?"

After hearing this, Xu Yan raised his eyebrows and said, "I have also heard of this matter. I was unwell a few days ago and I didn't notice these situations. So, Gu started to investigate the matter as soon as he woke up. After all, he had no basis in saying anything, so he should be more cautious about the punishment of the country. How could he just be imprisoned so casually?"

When the Minister of Rites heard Xu Yan's words, he thought of her going to find Lan Tai Junzi yesterday, and immediately concluded that she must have confessed to Wen Liang and the others. He frowned and looked at Yun Lang beside him, wanting to get some instructions from him. However, Yun Lang just looked ahead, looking detached, as if everything in front of him had nothing to do with him.

The Minister of Rites couldn't help but spit in his heart: If this old man hadn't found his mansion a few days ago and persuaded him to be the first to be in the court today, just looking at his innocent appearance, he wouldn't be able to believe that this matter had nothing to do with him.

However, no matter how much you complain, you still have to say something. The reason why the Minister of Rites was able to stay in the court for so long was not a vegetarian. He immediately asked Xu Yan: "Does your Majesty, are the ministers and Mr. Lan misunderstood the master of the country? Mr. Lan saw it with his own eyes, and this is still false?" His voice was like a loud bell, and every word hitting the court did indeed have a demeanor that could calm people.

Xu Yan chuckled as if what he said was so funny. Everyone in the audience seemed to be a background board, and they were just allowed to confront each other. Xu Yan looked at the Minister of Rites and spoke in a arrogant tone: "You always say that what Lan Tai Junzi said is true, but who can guarantee that what he said must be true? Only Lan Tai Junzi saw it alone, only she had a testimony, and there was no other evidence. What should you believe in this situation?!"

The Minister of Rites thought Xu Yan was simply a mess, and there was a witness's testimony in front of everyone, and this witness was the most honest and kind gentleman in everyone's mind. This is equivalent to ironclad evidence. How can we prove it? How can we leave evidence like an affair? It seems that Xu Yan is trying to protect the two of them.

Then he didn't have to show mercy anymore. His tone gradually became tougher: "Your Majesty cannot protect him because of personal gain. Everyone here knows what kind of temperament of Mr. Lan is! Your Majesty should not let go of the guilty person because of his momentary intent!" After saying that, he knelt down and kowtowed twice to Xu Yan. When the rest of the ministers saw his actions, they all knelt down together.

Xu Yan was not moved by her. She sneered and clapped her hands. The people who had been waiting outside the hall heard her signal and walked in and saluted Xu Yan respectfully. Everyone present was not unfamiliar with the person who came in. They looked at each other, not knowing what medicine was sold in Xu Yan's gourd.

He only heard that Xu Yan was feeling a little emotional and said to the Minister of Rites: "Yes, Gu Zaizai always thought that Lan Tai Junzi was a well-educated person. It was not until yesterday that Gu went to his bedroom to ask about this matter that he discovered the clues."

The Minister of Rites frowned, not knowing what Xu Yan said and what he said. Xu Yan continued, "A few days ago, I felt something unusual when I saw Lan Taijunzi. Who would wrap a heavy cloak in the bedroom at this time and burn charcoal fire in the room? I thought it was just that his house was a little cold, so it would be better to change a house for him. But Lan Taijunzi refused to change it. Why do you think this is?"

When she said this, she stared at Yun Lang's expression, as if she wanted to find something wrong from it. When the Minister of Rites heard her question, she didn't know what to reply.
