Start by scolding the empress

Chapter 407
"Chen Shilang, I know your contribution to the imperial court. When these things are settled, I will reward you for your merits."

Chen Yi was a little surprised that the empress would mention this directly, but since his immediate boss knows his credit, of course it's good.

"Thank you for your majesty's favor, I will do my best to relieve your majesty's worries."

When the Empress mentioned Heaven's Punishment Hero, Chen Yi couldn't bear to think of that young man. He raised his head and glanced at the Empress, hesitant to speak.

"What's the matter? Tell me directly, Chen Shilang actually has hesitations, not like you."

With a smile on Chen Yi's face, he chose his words carefully.

"Your Majesty, I have one more matter. It is my selfishness. I implore Your Majesty to consider it as appropriate."

When Chen Yi said this, he looked up at the empress again: "This hero of heaven's punishment has already understood the whole story before the minister came back. He is a young man who has just grown up, and he became extreme because of the great changes in his family when he was young. But people are not bad."

The empress listened with a blank expression, the day's punishment of the heroes had caused quite a stir a while ago.

It made the ministers of the imperial court and local officials panic, for fear that they would not be able to see the sun the next day when they lay down on the first day, so the empress hated this hero of heaven's punishment very much.

After Chen Yi was brought back, the empress sent him directly to prison, wanting him to suffer.

Didn't expect Chen Yi to intercede with him? !

For a while, he didn't know how to deal with it. Seeing that the Empress was indifferent, Chen Yi didn't give up.

"Furthermore, after investigation by the officials, the people who were killed by the Heavenly Punishment Heroes were carefully collected evidence. They were all corrupt officials. If they were found out, according to the laws of our Dawu Kingdom, they would also be punished and executed. Not a pity."

"I also chatted with the Heaven's Punishment Hero along the way. He already regretted his impulsive actions. I pitied him for what happened. I thought his actions were justifiable. Besides, this man's ability is really cut off like this." It's a pity, it's better to keep it for your own use."

The empress didn't express her opinion directly, she thought for a while in silence before speaking out loudly.

"The widow knows, the widow will consider what Chen Shilang said at his own discretion, you should go back first."

Chen Yi didn't stop any longer this time, and left the imperial study room directly.

After the matter was settled, Chen Yi began to write various plans after returning home.

Not only to write memorials, but also some plans for the future. Chen Yi hopes to take everything into consideration in his work, make a plan, and have a plan in mind. Even if there are any problems in the follow-up, he still has time and energy to solve them.

You don't have to worry about planning and running out of skills.

After getting busy, it was midnight, and when he heard the knock on the door, Chen Yi came back to his senses and put down his pen.

When he opened the door, he saw Uncle Cao standing at the door, holding a tray and a bowl in his hand.

Chen Yi immediately let Cao Bo in, and said with a smile: "Cao Bo, it's so late, why don't you rest, is this for me?"

"You have never been idle since you came back. I heard your master tell you what you saw and heard along the way. I know that you are busy with big things. I can't help you. I can only do small things for you. Come, drink this tonic soup."

Uncle Cao handed over the bowl while talking.

"This tonic soup was specially researched by your master and I in the past two days. It can regulate the meridians, and it is helpful for your cultivation of inner strength and mental methods. You have already studied the middle volume, don't forget it when you are busy. After cultivation, the body is the most important thing.”

Chen Yi nodded obediently, touched the bowl, and found that it was not hot, so he obediently drank it all in one gulp.

"Thank you Uncle Cao, I know, I also want to finish my work and have a good rest. It's just that the recent things have been rushed together, and it will be fine after a while."

Uncle Cao nodded, then looked up at Chen Yi.

Chen Yi immediately realized that Uncle Cao had come to find him for something, but he either went to court or entered the palace this day, and spent time in the study when he came back. It is estimated that Uncle Cao didn't find a free time, so he came to him.

"Uncle Cao, is there something wrong? There is something we can hide between us. You are more important than my father in my heart. If you have something to say, talk about it."

Hearing this, Uncle Cao was a little moved. This is a child raised by himself, and he is so promising.

No wonder that old boy Fang Xuan, after becoming a master, always sighed by his side that he was lucky.

"This is my personal matter. Let me tell you. If it's difficult, just pretend it's nothing. You don't have to bear the burden."

Uncle Cao laid the groundwork in advance, which aroused Chen Yi's curiosity. What's the matter with Uncle Cao?

"It's like this. I recently received a letter from a friend I had some friendship with when I was young. After I retired from the world, I seldom contacted each other. I didn't wake up and suddenly received a letter. The letter was to ask me for something, and it was also my A kindness owed to him back then."

As Uncle Cao said, he took out a letter from his pocket. The mouth of the envelope was open, and Uncle Cao handed the letter directly to Chen Yi.

"Look at it for yourself. After reading it, you will understand. If you can help with this matter, if you can't, I will think of other ways. It won't hurt you. Don't worry, you don't need to be burdened."

Hearing Uncle Cao's words, Chen Yi's curiosity was raised to the highest level, and after nodding, he opened the envelope directly.

He took out the letter paper inside and looked down.

When Chen Yi opened it, he saw that the handwriting on the letter was vigorous and powerful, and there was a kind of edge hidden in it, but it would make people feel sharp, but a feeling of calmness.

Chen Yi secretly praised a good word in his heart.

Then I looked down, and while Chen Yi was reading the letter, Uncle Cao didn't say a word, and waited quietly.

The letter was not long, but the contents of the letter really surprised Chen Yi, so he read it several times, and finally put it down slowly.

Looking up at Uncle Cao inquiringly: "Uncle Cao, the content of this letter..."

Uncle Cao nodded and said affirmatively: "I knew a little about this matter back then, but I had retired and didn't ask too much. He has been investigating for so many years, so there should be no mistakes. pretty close."

Chen Yi only felt that there was a feeling of being tricked by nature, and suddenly he didn't know how to respond.

Uncle Cao was a little uneasy, and tried cautiously.

"Is this thing a bit tricky? It's okay. It's not that I don't have other ways to make it difficult. I tell you that I want to take the most convenient way. You don't have to put too much pressure on it. It's okay. After all, it's my favor." , I'll pay it back."

Chen Yi came back to his senses, and immediately said to Uncle Cao with a smile.

"Uncle Cao, you misunderstood. I just feel that things are a bit too unexpected, so I am a little emotional."
