One second to remember [Brushstroke Pavilion] [Free of charge, read the wonderful novel!]

Baili Qingfeng was unable to contain his anger. He nearly flipped the imperial report.

He did not expect that the dignified assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites would raise up a son who robbed women and oppressed the people. Furthermore, in such a long period of time, none of the officials had given him a report.

Was he going to be a blind emperor who could only hear the singing and dancing of the imperial palace? Then what's the use of raising these officials!

He held the paper in his hand, one by one, and asked the kneeling citizens to come forward and talk.

Each and every one of the civilians came forward to show their respect, showing their respect to the humble abode. They had been tortured for too long, and now, they were like people holding onto the last straw at the edge of a cliff.

"Your majesty, this commoner's daughter was also targeted by that Wang family's tyrant and was forcibly dragged to the Wang family estate. However, my pitiful daughter had an unyielding temperament and directly knocked her head against the wall to her death …"

"The commoner's daughter was taken away for three days, and three days later she was left at the place where she was buried, and the commoner was brought back, her body was beaten up, her eyes were cut off, her tongue was cut off, limbs were all broken, and she could not find a good place to hide. The commoner's husband, in order to find a doctor for my daughter, worked day and night to work himself to death, but the commoner was still unable to change my daughter's life, my poor daughter …"

Everyone came forward to report it. Baili Qing was so angry that his face turned green, his fingers that were placed on the imperial examination table were trembling nonstop, "Good! Good! Good! [In the capital, under the watch of the Emperor, there is actually someone who has done such a horrible thing!]

"Please calm your anger, Your Majesty!"

The civil and military officials were all kneeling on the ground. They were unable to breathe due to Baili Qingfeng's anger.

His hair was white, and he was barely able to stand steadily, but his voice was unusually loud. "Your Majesty, this commoner has no complaints, but wants to seek justice for my poor daughter-in-law today. When my daughter-in-law was captured, she was pregnant, that bastard surnamed Wang ruined my daughter-in-law's life, and even killed this commoner's son. Now that this old man is alone, I no longer have anything to worry about, and wish that I die here today, please listen to the grievances of us commoners, and give this commoner and the others a fair justice! "

Baili Qingfeng's heart trembled as he thought to himself, "Quick, stop him!"

Unfortunately, the old man's heart was filled with the will to die. He wholeheartedly wanted to use his own death to seek justice for himself, and his strength was exceptionally strong.

The anger in Baili Qingfeng's heart was agitated to the point that he could no longer suppress it. He suddenly stood up and shouted, "Take my treasured sword!"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

As the attendants entered the hall carrying Shang Fang's sword, Baili Qingyuan walked down the steps in large strides. He picked up his sword and unsheathed it with a swoosh, hacking down Wang Wei's head violently.

A head instantly left his body, Wang Wei was as dead as a dead man could be. "Aoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo …"

Lying on the ground with his eyes wide open, the Vice Minister of Rites didn't even have time to close them before his face was splashed with warm blood. With a flip of his eyes, he fainted completely.

Before fainting, there was only one thought left in his mind: I'm doomed, the Wang family is doomed. I should have killed that evil creature a long time ago...

Everyone was stunned by Baili Qingfeng's actions. The hall was so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard.

After a long while, a cry resounded in the hall, "Vengeance... Long live the Emperor, His Majesty is wise! "

"Long live the Emperor, His Majesty is wise!"

"Long live the Emperor, His Majesty is wise!"

"..."

His royal father had once said that he could expand his territory, but it was difficult for him to defend his country. Now that he thought about it, his father's evaluation of him back then was indeed correct.

Ever since he had ascended to the throne, he had never heard the common people sincerely cheering for him. And among the officials he accepted his fate, one of the Minister of Rites and Assistant Minister could even cause such a storm in the capital.

After a while, Bai Li walked up to Chu Junyi with the sword dripping with blood in his hand. "Your name is Chu Junyi. You're a fifth-grade official of the imperial guards, and you're Ning Hua's future consort?"

Chu Junyi dropped to her knees, and replied in a calm and collected manner, "Yes, your majesty!"

Baili Qingfeng pursed his lips as he looked Chu Junyi up and down. "I believe in Congee Hua's judgement. You're a rare talent."

"Thank you, your majesty, for your praise." Chu Junyi was neither arrogant nor impatient.

Baili Qingfeng handed the sword to Chu Junyi, his eyes flashing with determination, "Chu Junyi, do as you're told!"

"This humble subject is here!"

From now on, you have to listen in on the public's wishes, and you have to supervise the hundreds of officials. If you meet any officials or disciples who stubbornly refuse to obey the orders, you can cut them down first and give them a token at the waist. You can freely enter the Imperial Palace and report directly to us! "" Yes, sir.

Chu Junyi's eyes flashed with a brilliant light. He quickly regained his composure and clasped his hands together. "Your Majesty's orders will be followed!"

To jump from a fifth rank official to a first rank official, and then to behead a second rank official's younger generation, such a large promotion was unheard-of in the imperial court. Moreover, as the censor was responsible for supervising a hundred officials, he had the authority to behead them and report them to the emperor.

It was only when Baili Qingfeng personally announced that the Wang family would be raided and the citizens pacified, only then did the crowd prostrate themselves in front of him and respectfully send him off.

Even though the morning assembly had ended, no one left the hall. All eyes were on the newly appointed Imperial Left Censor, Chu Junyi.

Chu Junyi turned a deaf ear to everyone's scrutiny and discussion. She took out a handkerchief from her sleeve and carefully wiped the blood off Shang Fang's sword.

After that, he gently pulled down a strand of hair and blew it towards Shang Fang's sword. His light hair was instantly cut into two. He held the treasured sword and nimbly swung it, scattering down a cold light:

"What a good sword!"

Everyone felt a chill in their hearts. Many of the officials felt as if they were about to be slashed on the neck by a treasured sword. They subconsciously held their throats.

Chu Junyi took the scabbard from one of the attendants and sheathed it with a 'shua' sound. She walked over to Shen Ninghua and said, "Princess, this humble subject will escort you back to your residence."

Shen Ninghua tidied up her sleeves and nodded with a smile.

As the two walked out side by side, one was tall and the other was short, so tall that even the air around them seemed to have melded together.

After the two had left, the civil and military officials gradually regained their wits and left in a hurry.

They wanted to quickly go back and investigate if there was someone that bullied both men and women, the popinjay who bullied the common people. If there was someone like that, they would have already killed him, saving him the trouble of implicating the entire family like the son of the Minister of Rites.

Returning to the princess' mansion, Shen Ninghua looked at the sword in Chu Junyi's hand and praised, "It really is a powerful weapon!"

"Naturally, if used properly it would definitely be a divine weapon."

"What are you going to do with it?" Shen Ninghua's eyes shone brightly. Chu Junyi smiled mysteriously. "The emperor has entrusted me with such an important task. Naturally, I won't disappoint his kindness. It will be used to cut the enemy off first and then play."

"Then the officials of the capital are most likely admonishing him to death."

"Those officials are basically of the second rank, it's a pity they can't be directly cut down." Chu Junyi shook her head regretfully, paying no heed to the officials.

Shen Ninghua's eyes flashed, "You've become the censor of the left kingdom. I wonder how many people are jealous of you? Do you have any ideas to deal with it?"

"A strategy to deal with it?" A sinister smile appeared on Chu Junyi's face. "If they're just talking, I'll let them curse at me. If they want to set me up, they'll have to cut me down first and deal with me later. The emperor has already given me the privilege."

She could almost foresee what would happen next. This was good as well, the capital had quieted down, and the minds of the people were more lively. It was the best way to fish in troubled waters.

Seeing the smile on Ning Hua's face, Chu Junyi rushed forward. "My wife is so pretty when she smiles."

The smile on Shen Ninghua's face instantly froze. With a flash of green veins on his forehead, he grabbed Shen Ninghua's face and pushed him to the side.

Feeling her fingers on her lips, Chu Junyi smirked as she ran her tongue over her palm.

Shen Ninghua retracted her finger as if she was shocked by lightning, her face instantly flushed red. "You lecher, I'll kill you first!"

Chu Junyi quickly leaped away. "Ninghua, are you planning to murder your husband?" "Hey, hey, my wife, stop chasing after me. If you get tired, who's going to give birth to my son?"

"If you dare to speak without stopping me, I'll also throw your medicine out!"

"Sigh, my wife, feeding me is fine, but I can't throw it out. I'll just stay in your room. Actually, you still don't understand me well enough. If you understand me well enough, you'll know that I don't need to feed you any medicine at all …" Chu Junyi's smile grew more sinister, and her eyes became even redder.

This kind of appearance might seem vulgar on an ordinary person's face, but on his body, it made people feel like he was bewitching and enticing. This made Shen Ninghua clench his teeth even harder.

The two of them toyed with each other for some time before Chu Junyi left to return to the Xiao Residence after Shen Ninghua gave her a good beating.

Just as he returned to his residence, Xiao Huan Xi's maid came over. "Young master, the young lady invited you over because she has something to discuss with you."

The joy in Chu Junyi's heart receded, and a sense of disgust and impatience rose up within her. "Your young mistress is so muddled-headed about her illness. As her personal maid, are you also muddled?" How can someone casually enter Miss's room? "

"Please calm your anger young master, you are the young lady's brother, there is no need to be so shy."

Chu Junyi smirked. "What kind of brother am I? I've already said it myself, so it's better if I keep my mouth shut."

Xiao Huan Xi came in through the door with tears in her eyes. "Brother Jun Yi, you're avoiding me like a snake or a scorpion. Am I really making you feel bad?"

As she spoke, she motioned the maid to withdraw.

Chu Junyi looked at her coldly with mockery in her eyes. "A person who uses medicine like that is no easy target."

Xiao Huan Xi's tears were like pearls as she stuttered from the shock, "Brother Jun Yi, I know that you won't believe me no matter how hard I try to explain myself. I came here today just to tell you something very important. "

"What is it?"

Xiao Huan Xi bit her lips, "About your identity …"
