This made Li Shimin anxious, and he wanted to trade one for one with me.

Everyone was stunned.

what's going on?

Where is Liu Zhongcheng's red robe?

Why are you wearing a green robe?

Wen Yanbo reacted instantly, strode over, and asked in astonishment, "Lord Liu, His Majesty has demoted you?"

Liu Xiangdao stared at Wen Yanbo with bloodshot eyes, then turned his head away without saying a word.

Wen Yanbo turned to look at Cheng Jun and couldn't help but ask, "Did you smuggle it?"

Cheng Jun, who was admiring the expressions on everyone's faces, laughed upon hearing this and said, "Impressive, isn't it?"

"..."

Ma Zhou and Xiao Yi gasped in shock. Wasn't this just adding fuel to the fire?

Wen Yanbo twitched the corner of his mouth, then looked at Liu Xiangdao, only to see that Liu Xiangdao had already turned his head and was staring straight at Cheng Jun. Suddenly, with a "poof," he was overcome with anger and fainted, collapsing to the ground.

"Liu Zhongcheng?!"

Wen Yanbo's expression changed, and he quickly ran over to help him up.

However, Cheng Jun was faster.

"Liu Taiduan, wake up!"

Cheng Jun approached Liu Xiangdao with a concerned expression, patting his face repeatedly with his palms, the sound starting softly and gradually growing louder.

Seeing several red marks appear on Liu Xiangdao's face, Wen Yanbo's expression changed. He rushed over and grabbed Cheng Jun, glanced at Liu Xiangdao, and seeing that he was still unconscious, breathed a sigh of relief. Then he glared at Cheng Jun and said:

"Are you out of your mind? Assaulting a superior officer, do you even know what crime that is?"

Cheng Jun withdrew his hand, turned his head innocently, and said, "Dr. Wen, I wanted to wake up Liu Taiduan!"

When everyone came to their senses, they realized that Liu Xiangdao had been demoted by His Majesty to the position of Imperial Censor.

Wen Yanbo shouted angrily, "Does anyone wake someone up with a slap? Pinch their philtrum!"

Cheng Jun said, "Liu Taiduan is my superior. I was so eager to save him that I forgot about him for a moment. I heard that people bite their tongues when they faint. I was only thinking about saving him. I had no selfish motives!"

Wen Yanbo was speechless. Even ghosts wouldn't believe such words spoken on a grave. Suddenly remembering the people behind him, he turned around and saw four imperial censors standing there, still stunned by Cheng Jun's unusual method of awakening Liu Xiangdao, not yet recovered. He shouted:

"What are you standing there for? Quickly send Liu Taiduan to the Imperial Medical Academy!"

"promise!"

The four imperial censors snapped out of their daze and rushed over, grabbing Liu Xiangdao's limbs and running towards the Imperial Medical Bureau.

"and many more!"

Wen Yanbo suddenly called out to them from behind, "Imperial Censor Cheng was just trying to save someone. Don't go out and spread rumors, lest you be impeached and framed for your colleague's crimes, understand?"

The four of them shuddered, turned around, and said in unison, "Understood!"

"Go!"

Wen Yanbo waved his hand, then looked at Cheng Jun with a complicated expression in his eyes.

Cheng Jun met his gaze and said sincerely, "Thank you, Doctor Wen, for speaking up for me!"

"You're kidding me." Wen Yanbo said sternly, "I just don't want the Censorate to lose four more Censors."

Xiao Yi and Ma Zhou, standing to the side, found nothing wrong with what they said.

On Cheng Jun's very first day in office, the Censorate lost one of its Vice Censors.

This is to establish his authority... Ma Zhou's eyes narrowed as he realized that this one time would make everyone in Taichung know that Cheng Jun was not to be trifled with, and they would feel admiration for him.

Xiao Yi, who was standing to the side, also realized what was going on and looked at Cheng Jun with a strange expression. He finally understood what Cheng Jun meant when he said that he had returned without any real danger.

Liu Xiangdao was surprised.

He was safe...

"In any case, Doctor Wen did help me."

Cheng Jun smiled and said, "If you need anything from Doctor Wen in the future, please feel free to come to me. I may not have any other skills, but I am first-rate at handling matters."

"Trouble-making is the best thing about him..." Wen Yanbo muttered to himself.

Moreover, Cheng Jun wasn't a peacemaker; he was just an ordinary person!

Wen Yanbo sighed and said, "I'll be grateful if you don't embarrass me or the Censorate any further."

"Alright, all of you go back to your posts. I need to figure out how to clean up the mess you've made."

He waved his hand and then went back to the main hall of the Taiwan Academy.

Cheng Jun watched his retreating figure, lost in thought. After a long while, he looked up at Xiao Yi and said, "Brother Xiao Yi, how many Feng Lingshi do we have in our Censorate?"

He was asking about the middle-aged clerk who went to the home of guerrilla general Qiao Shiwang to summon his son Qiao Bei, only to have water thrown at him by Qiao Bei's mother, Princess Luling.

"On a!"

Xiao Yi said.

"Please call him over here for me!"

"it is good!"

Ma Zhou watched Xiao Yi disappear into the courtyard, then turned and asked curiously, "Brother Chuxia, what do you want with Magistrate Feng?"

Cheng Jun smiled and said, "I'd like to ask him to show me the way."

Lead the way? Ma Zhou thought about it carefully and then understood. He was going to the residence of Guerrilla General Qiao Shiwang. He asked in surprise, "What are you going to do there?"

With his hands behind his back, Cheng Jun looked at the entrance to the courtyard and said slowly, "I think Doctor Wen is a good person. Judging from his appearance just now, he seemed quite worried about how to clean up this mess, so I decided to help him clean it up."

Ma Zhou immediately understood that the mess he was referring to was the incident where Liu Xiangdao sent a hundred censors from the Censorate to summon the son of a military officer, only to have them return empty-handed.

When the officials returned, Wen Yanbo said that he originally wanted to show his face, but his own people ended up showing their backsides and were even slapped by a woman on top of them.

The subtext of this statement is that the Censorate has lost all face.

It makes sense, the Censorate mobilized its entire staff to summon the sons of military officers for questioning, but out of the fifty-nine boys, not a single one showed up.

If word gets out, how will the Censorate save face?

The only way to clean up this mess is to regain face!

Just thinking about visiting the homes of fifty-nine military officers gave Ma Zhou a headache, and he dared not think any further, let alone how to save face for the Censorate after he arrived. He sighed, "It's as difficult as mending the sky."

"Not always."

Cheng Jun turned to look at him and smiled, "Maybe I am the five-colored stone that Nuwa used to mend the sky."

Ma Zhou was stunned for a moment, then understood his implication. His eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands and said, "That's right, you are the son of a military officer!"

But the next second, a thought struck him, and he shook his head: "No, no! With this connection, you can at most get closer to them, but it's impossible to save face for the Censorate from them. They won't do you this favor!"
