Not to mention that this venerable old minister has now entered his old age, and the passing of time is like a ruthless blade.

His once resolute and tough face, now weathered by vicissitudes of life, was marked by traces of varying depths. Each wrinkle seemed to represent an unforgettable memory, telling the story of his arduous journey through life.

In fact, everyone had more or less secretly thought about and anticipated such an ending in their hearts.

After all, birth, old age, sickness and death are the natural laws that all things in the world cannot escape, and there is no doubt about that. And this old minister has indeed reached the time when he should retire and return to the world.

However, it must be emphasized here that the position of this old minister in the court is crucial and important.

The power he holds is like a huge mountain that towers into the clouds, majestic and towering. It is not only large in scale but also has a solid foundation.

The influence it produces is beyond imagination, and it can easily change or even determine the trend and direction of the development of the entire court.

Such tremendous power will undoubtedly make countless people feel longing and even salivate to the extreme.

It is precisely because of this situation that those people with ulterior motives and evil intentions have long been eyeing and coveting the high position he occupies.

They racked their brains all day long, racking their brains to figure out how they could find the perfect opportunity to pull him down from that high position.

Once they succeed, they will be able to naturally replace them and ascend to the impressive pinnacle of power.

The eyes of these guys were like those of extremely hungry wolves, emitting strong greed, desire, cunning and sinister light.

They kept a close eye on the respected old minister at all times, not wanting to miss even the slightest flaw or fleeting opportunity.

It seemed that if he was even slightly careless, this old minister would be defeated by them in one fell swoop and completely lose all the glory and status he once had.

Now, the tragic news that the loyal and diligent old minister had suddenly passed away was like a bolt from the blue, and it spread throughout the court and the country in an instant.

For a moment, everyone inside and outside the court was shocked and everyone was talking about it.

And those villains who had long coveted the power and high status in the hands of this old minister, after hearing this shocking news, were like hungry wolves smelling blood, and were secretly delighted in their hearts.

Their ugly faces were twisted with excitement, and they kept thinking in their hearts

"Haha, this is truly a great opportunity given to us by God!"

These people have long been blinded by endless greed and evil desires. They can no longer see the justice and fairness of the world, and they are only thinking about how to quickly pocket the power and interests left by the old ministers.

As for whether there is some unknown truth hidden behind this matter, they have no interest or patience to explore it carefully.

At this moment, these people's minds are completely occupied by all kinds of sinister and cunning calculations and heinous conspiracies.

They racked their brains to think about how to seize this golden opportunity as quickly as possible to realize their ulterior ambitions and goals.

With this favorable wind, he was able to realize his grand ambitions and was determined to turn the ambitions that had been hidden deep in his heart and suppressed for a long time into a reality within reach.

However, in the early days, the man named Bi Yue did not attract anyone's attention.

He was in the court, but was treated coldly everywhere, as if he was just an insignificant character who could be ignored at will.

However, as time passed, a series of bizarre and extremely strange events happened one after another...

The first person to get into trouble was a certain official. After leaving court that day, due to some special reasons, he was a little late on his return journey.

No one had expected that after just one night, when the next morning dawned, everyone was shocked to find

The official's body was found lying in a long, narrow, dark and deep alley near his home. The tragic way he died was simply horrifying!

Then, another child from another family disappeared without a trace while playing outside.

The family searched everywhere anxiously, but found nothing.

Several days passed and there was still no clue. The family was heartbroken and their hair turned white overnight.

Just when they were about to give up hope, the child who had been missing for many days miraculously returned home.

At the same time, the official who had been sarcastic and cold towards Bi Yue in the court suddenly changed his attitude 180 degrees.

This series of bizarre events plunged the entire court into chaos and panic, and Bi Yue, a seemingly insignificant figure, seemed to be gradually becoming the key to solving the mystery.

They even began to become cautious and prudent towards him, and were extra polite when treating him.

You have to know that everyone in the court is a spirit who has cultivated himself into a god. Even if they don't know exactly what happened, they can easily get a general idea by just asking around.

Although at first glance all the information I heard seemed to have nothing to do with Bi Yue.

However, looking at the reactions of that family, how could those ministers, who are suspicious by nature, not become suspicious?

As a result, people could not help but speculate secretly. Some even linked it to the events that had happened in the previous dynasty.

After all, everyone had encountered some situations to a greater or lesser extent, but the degree of severity varied.

As for some people who are in high positions and have no fear of Bi Yue, they will naturally not be polite to him, but will go straight to his house to ask for an explanation.

But faced with such a situation, Bi Yue kept crying out for justice, saying that he was also full of grievances.

It turned out that Bi Yue had also experienced a storm. It was said that his old mother suddenly fainted at home for some unknown reason.

The scene at that time is still fresh in people's memory. He looked extremely panicked, his face was as pale as paper, cold sweat was dripping down his forehead, and his body was trembling slightly, as if he was shrouded in some great fear.

That kind of panic look cannot be faked. Anyone who sees it will believe that it is a true reaction from the heart.

The court was in an uproar, with ministers whispering to each other and discussions rising one after another.

The face of that powerful official suddenly became extremely gloomy, like the dark clouds before a storm.
