  Watching Lü Fu leave, Chen Yuan let out a long sigh and lay down on the bed, a smile spreading across his face.

  "Who is this person?" Hu Jing asked in a low voice on one side.

  Chen Yuan was somewhat pleased: "As the door of the current Prime Minister Lv Yi Jian, he came to me on behalf of Lv Yi Jian. I thought, I don't have to run errands anymore."

  Hu Jing's face changed immediately: "Lü Yi Jian? How did you get mixed up with him? He's not a good person either."

  Chen Yuan replied, "Yes, I know. It's just that I'm not a talented person, and I don't want to be an official to bring glory to my ancestors or learn martial arts to uphold justice. I just want to do some business to make some money, so I can live comfortably and bring my parents who work in the fields to enjoy family life. Whoever can help me, I'll cooperate with them."

  Hu Jing's face was stern: "If it were Pang Laozei's gang, would they also go and help the tiger?"

  Chen Yuan chuckled: "Don't worry, when doing business and finding partners, there are two kinds of people you can't find. One is the best kind of good person, like Fan Zhongyan and Bao Zheng. If you cooperate with them, you have to do business in a very proper way, and if you want to make some extra money on the side, they won't let you. The second kind is people like Peng Tai Shi, the worst kind of bad person. If I cooperate with him, I wouldn't even need to think about doing business every day, just being able to keep my life would be good enough!"

  Hu Jing's face slightly softened, and she finally let out a sigh and said: "Well, actually, the person is not bad, I just fear that if I get mixed up with those people, I'll end up losing out."

  Chen Yuan stretched out his hand and wrapped it around her waist: "Isn't that right? If I'm at a disadvantage, take the treasure sword to uphold justice for me!"

  Hu Jing was suddenly hugged, her face immediately turned red, and she stretched out her hand to push away Chen Yuan: "What are you doing!"

  This push was even more forceful, pulling on Chen Yuan's wound. Chen Yuan, who feared pain, immediately let out a mournful cry.

  "Hurry up and comfort her: 'Are you okay? Are you hurt?'"

  Chen Yuan rubbed his sore spot and frowned, saying: "Female knight, I'm still hurt, be gentle!"

  Although his wound had not healed yet, it did not affect Chen Yuan's walking. When he arrived at Lü Yi Jian's mansion in the afternoon, Lü Yi Jian was already home.

  Lü Fu brought Chen Yuan to Lü Yi's study when this prime minister was reading a book.

  Chen Yuan clasped his fists and bowed: "I've seen Lord Lü."

  Lv Yi glanced at him and smiled: "Not bad, better than I thought, that Pang Ji was out of luck."

  Chen Yuan smiled wryly: "Thanks to Master Xiang's guidance."

  Lv Yi put down his book: "Don't say that, I didn't point out anything. Not in the past, nor will I in the future."

  Chen Yuan stood on one side and stopped talking, waiting for Lü Yi's next words.

  The maid poured two cups of water and Lv Yi Jian pointed to the chair beside him: "Sit down."

  Chen Yuan responded with a grunt and sat down halfway.

  Lü Yi Jian pointed to another cup of tea: "Try it, this is high-quality Bi Luo Chun."

  Chen Yuan didn't understand tea tasting, but just from the aroma that floated out, it was much stronger than the best tea leaves at Yue Lai Inn.

  Lv Yi took a light sip, without swallowing, and savored the tea flavor in his mouth while saying: "Today's court session was very intense, Pang Ji couldn't deny it, the Emperor was furious, and kicked him twice, this is something our Emperor has never done before."

  Chen Yuan said in a low voice: "In this case, Pang Ji is still safe?"

  Lv Yi Jian turned his head and said: "What did you say?"

  Chen Yuanshao said, "The emperor's actions remind me of something that happened when I was a child. When I was young, my family was poor, and one day a vendor came to the village entrance selling oil cakes. I really wanted to eat them, but I didn't have any money on me, so I had no choice but to steal some eggs from home and exchange them for oil cakes. When my father came back, he was very angry and caught me, beating me severely."

  Lü Yi Jian heard this and burst out laughing: "Not bad, you can actually see through this point. The more angry the Emperor is, the more it shows that he still considers Pang Ji as one of his own people. If he considered him an outsider, why would he need to get angry? Just drag him out and behead him."

  Then, a smile that was full of meaning appeared on his face. He shook his head and said: "It's laughable that Fan Zhongyan and those scholars saw the emperor get angry and still added fuel to the fire, thinking they could take advantage of the situation to bring down Pang Ji. They didn't know that when one's own family members steal things, it's not called stealing, but rather secretly taking."

  Chen Yuan replied: "I suppose the Emperor is now unable to abdicate?"

  Lv Yi took a deep breath, looked at the sun that had already slanted outside: "Yes, His Majesty was so angry that his face turned blue. Those people like Fan Zhongyan still talked about this matter, they always thought that His Majesty was also being fooled by Pang Ji. If not for Bao Zheng interrupting Fan Zhongyan's words, the old man would have suffered a great loss today."

  Chen Yuan asked: "In the end, how did Your Majesty deal with it?"

  Lv Yi put down his tea and placed his hands on his knees: "What else can we do? Let's let the Grand Master return to the mansion first, and discuss it again tomorrow. Fan Zhongyan and Ouyang Xiu are like they've won a victory, these bookworms have read too many books, they actually think that tonight they'll go find us, and tomorrow they'll make us testify against Pang Ji's instigation of Pang An, and then give Pang Ji another blow."

  Chen Yuan also smiled and shook his head, saying: "Even if Pang Ji fell heavily today, his daughter would be able to get him back on his feet in one night. If we follow Ouyang Xiu's words tomorrow, we will surely die."

  Lv Yi Jian smiled in agreement: "You're absolutely right, but if we don't go to testify, will Pang Taishi let us off?"

  Chen Yuan stood up, and with a very proper expression on his face, he said to Lü Yi Jian: "I know now that the one who can control my life and death is not Grand Master Pang or Ouyang Xiu, but rather Your Excellency, Prime Minister."

  Lü Yi Jian looked at him: "Actually, I don't want to let Taishi fall either. The reason is simple, in the eyes of those people like Fan Zhongyan, I am not a good person either. And they hope for a court composed of gentlemen. The reason why I'm not in much danger now is because there's someone worse than me, Pang Ji, who is blocking these righteous scholars for me."

  Just then, Lü Fu suddenly knocked on the door and came in: "Master, Master Pang has arrived."

  Lü Yi nodded: "Yes, I'll personally go and welcome him in. Chen Shi Mei, let's go together."

  Pang Ji was invited by Lü Yi Jian. As for Lü Yi Jian suddenly inviting him to drink tea here, Pang Ji was very surprised.

  It is known that he was just defeated in the imperial court today, and except for those die-hard followers who rely on Pong Ki to eat, the flatterers of Pyeongyang have already disappeared.

  His friendship with Lü Yi was not very deep, and Lü Yi didn't need to flatter him. At this time, he was asked to come and drink tea, but the reason behind it was unclear to Pang Ji.

  But Lü Yi Jian has sent someone to invite him, so he will naturally come.
