Yixiu is reborn, fights against her elder sister, and becomes the queen mother

However, Yixiu had already made arrangements in advance, so Defei naturally could not get involved in this matter anymore. She just casually said a few words to Fei Yanggu's people.

Fei Yanggu waited for several days, but there was no news from the palace. He also realized what Concubine De meant.

It seemed that Concubine De no longer wanted to deal with this mess. Fei Yanggu was angry and annoyed in his heart, and he didn't know how many porcelain pieces in the study were broken.

He had been wanting to wait for a suitable opportunity to go to Kangxi and plead for mercy, but he did not expect that during the morning court the next day, Su Chou would actually report the matter to Kangxi in public.

When Su Chou stood out from among the ministers, all the officials couldn't help but feel their scalps tighten.

What does this young man want to do?

You are just a minister of the Ministry of Justice, not a censor.

Most of the time, Kangxi turned a blind eye to the evil deeds done by many children of nobles. As long as they did not go too far, he would not care.

Therefore, the Ministry of Justice has many old cases piled up, which are not big deals, such as the son of an official robbed a woman, occupied someone's shop, or beat someone to death.

These cases sound scary, but the ministers who have been in the Ministry of Justice for a long time have become numb.

But Su Chou was different. He first submitted a letter. When Kangxi did not approve it, he knelt down at the court meeting to ask for the imperial edict.

He seemed determined to kill himself if Kangxi did not stand up for the people.

If the Fourth Prince had not pleaded for him many times because he was Yixiu's cousin, and had not found someone to apologize to him afterwards, he would have been so angry that he would have lost his head several times.

Although Kangxi was very angry every time, he was still very happy to have such an upright minister in the court.

After all, the fourth brother had pleaded for him so many times, but when it came time to find the fourth brother's weakness, Su Chou was the first to rush forward.

"I, Su Chou, the Minister of Justice, beg Your Majesty to severely punish General Ulanara Narbu. He has embezzled military funds, colluded with the powerful, and disregarded Your Majesty's grace. He is a man worthy of death. I beg Your Majesty to punish him, to demonstrate Your Majesty's authority."

Kangxi's eyelids twitched. He glanced at Fei Yangwan calmly and asked, "Narbu is your son, right? Explain to Minister Su!"

The meaning is very clear. Your two families are relatives, so you should persuade him as soon as possible. What he said makes so much sense, how can I refute him? If I refute him, won’t it make me look like a tyrant?

Fei Yanggu looked like he was about to cry.

If I could persuade him, would he still say such things in the court?

After Defei's approach didn't work, he sent people to Su Chou's house many times with gifts, but without exception, they were all rejected.

Fei Yanggu stood up trembling, kowtowed to Kangxi, and said, "I am a poor parent. I beg Your Majesty to forgive me! I will teach this evil boy a lesson when I return. I only beg Your Majesty to spare his life!"

Kangxi nodded and said, "In that case, Narbu will be demoted to a commoner and all the embezzled military funds must be repaid!"

Kangxi originally thought that this was enough, but he did not expect Su Chou to kneel on the ground and said very persistently: "Your Majesty, according to the Qing Dynasty law, corruption of military funds should be executed! The law is strict, please punish according to the rules!"

Kangxi felt a headache. What was going on with this Su Chou?

Does he have any grudge against Narbush?

Narbu must be killed!

Fei Yanggu panicked. Even if he was a failure, he was still his own son. "Master Su, why are you so aggressive? The Emperor is merciful and has spared my son's life. Do you insist on killing him? Do you want to pay with my own life?"

For a moment, everyone was talking about it, but most of them stood on Fei Yanggu's side.

One reason was that Su Chou had a very bad reputation and had offended almost most officials.

Secondly, many children of nobles also joined in the fun. Who knows who this Su will ask the emperor to kill next?

"Your Majesty, you are the Son of Heaven. You have already issued an edict, and yet Minister Su dared to reject it in public. This is truly a disrespect for the Emperor. I beg Your Majesty to punish him severely!"

“Yes, Your Majesty, please punish Su Dailang severely!”

"........."

For a time, everyone was impeaching Su Chou, but most of them were accusing him of disrespecting the emperor's grace.

After all, Su Chou had absolutely no weaknesses and was never biased in handling any case. He didn't want a penny more than the salary he deserved.

What’s even more infuriating is that both his parents are dead, and he doesn’t even have any relatives. The only two people in the court who are related to him are Fei Yanggu.

He just asked Kangxi to kill his legitimate son...

The other one is Prince Yong, but he doesn't seem to be any use either.

Kangxi looked at the fourth prince, hoping that he could come forward to mediate, but the fourth prince just stood quietly aside and watched this farce.

No one knows what he is thinking!

"Your Majesty, the soldiers are fighting hard outside, risking their lives, yet someone is embezzling their military funds. Your Majesty, all the people in the world are your children. Lord Fei Yanggu receives a salary from the court, how can he only love his own children and forget the people of the world? Please, Your Majesty, make the decision!"

After Su Chou's verbal battle, many court officials were left speechless.

Fei Yanggu had no other choice, so he started to use moral blackmail: "Master Su, I kneel down for you, isn't that enough? This is my only legitimate son. Even for the sake of your deceased aunt, please don't let me, an old man with white hair, send you off. I will admit any mistakes this child has made. If all else fails, just kill me!"

Not to mention anything else, fortunately when he mentioned his deceased aunt, and then thought about the tragic scene of the entire Su family being executed, Su Chou's eyes turned red, he kowtowed heavily, and took off his official hat.

"Your servant, Su Chou, begs the Emperor to severely punish the criminals and bring justice to the people of the world!"

Kangxi didn't expect that Su Chou still insisted on asking him to behead Narbu. He was so angry that he smashed the teacup Liang Jiugong was holding on Su Chou's head.

"How dare you! Are you threatening me? Do you believe that I will kill you first before I kill Narbu?"

Su Chou's eyes were bloodshot, and the scenes of his grandfather, grandmother, uncle, aunt, cousins being beheaded kept appearing in his mind.

The scene changed, and I saw my mother holding my young self, kneeling in front of the door and begging for mercy. Then, the next moment, my mother stretched out her skinny fingers, but her eyes were full of hatred, telling me to take revenge!

He no longer cared about anything else and said in a resounding voice, "If I can prove the justice of this world, even if Your Majesty sentences me to death, I will gladly accept it!"

After he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a fishy-sweet taste in his throat, and he spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted in the hall.

All the court officials and Kangxi were shocked, especially Kangxi. No way, no way, I won’t make him angry to death.

Will future generations remember me as a tyrant?

After all, in Kangxi's mind, he now puts himself in the role of Emperor Taizong of Tang, and Su Chou is actually Wei Zheng!

Otherwise, Su Chou would argue with him in the court every day. If this kind of person didn't have some real ability, he would have killed him long ago.
