I am a corrupt official, but they say I am a loyal minister!

"Your Majesty, I can make my own decision regarding this matter of marriage, so I won’t trouble Your Majesty! Lin Beifan said tactfully.

The empress became excited:"No!" As the current prime minister and military marshal, your marriage is not a piece of cake, it is related to the stability of the court and the military! Therefore, I must make the decision for you! Lin

Beifan sweated profusely:"Your Majesty, it's really unnecessary. It's not that serious."……"

The empress made the decision:"It's such a happy decision!"

Lin Beifan:"……"

In the end, the emperor's order was difficult, and his arms could not twist his thighs, so Lin Beifan had no choice but to accept the order with tears in his eyes.

At this time, after a few days, the third prince of Great Yan, Yan Xinghe, had fled back to Great Yan, and at the same time brought back Da Wu's reply. He had to either fight or retreat, there was no third way to choose.

Naturally, Dayan's soldiers and horses would not retreat, but they did not dare to fight easily.

Therefore, the two armies still faced off and were very restrained.

After finishing the business, the third prince immediately ran excitedly to a luxurious mansion.

"Imperial Master, I am here to see you!"

There was only a whooshing sound, and a fat Taoist priest appeared. It turned out to be Taoist Priest Kong who had disappeared for a long time.

After being driven out of Dawu by Lin Beifan, he came to Dayan with his young apprentice.

With the help of alchemy skills His craftsmanship and ability to play tricks quickly charmed Emperor Dayan and all the officials in the court, and he became the national advisor of the dynasty, holding a high position and being respected by everyone.

"Your Highness, Third Prince, you are back. Have you got the dragon bone?"

"That's natural! The third prince smiled proudly and said,"How can I come back empty-handed when I go out?"

Taoist Kong Kong was overjoyed:"Where is the keel?" Let Pindao take a look!"

"Master, please take a look!"The third prince carefully took out a box, then opened the box, and carefully took out a jade bottle with the dragon bone inside.

Taoist Master Kong Kong carefully opened the bottle and poured out a little powder. After carefully identifying it, he nodded and said:"This is indeed a dragon bone, please, Your Highness the Third Prince! The third prince asked anxiously:"Master, there are 2.5 taels of dragon bones in this bottle, plus the ones my father gave you earlier, there are a total of five taels of dragon bones!" With so many dragon bones, my father asked me to ask you, can you refine the elixir of immortality?"

Kong Kong Taoist Master rolled his eyes in his heart. He also wanted to refine the elixir of immortality, but the problem is that he doesn't know how!

However, he is a senior magic stick, so he did not panic at all. He shook his head slightly and said with a wry smile:" How can it be that easy? For thousands of years, countless kings have tried to refine the elixir of life, but how many have succeeded? not even one! That is to say, now that the dragon bone, the most precious treasure of heaven and earth, has appeared, there is a glimmer of hope!

The third prince then smiled bitterly:"That's true!""

"Your Highness, don’t worry, we now have the dragon bones, and with the efforts of the whole country to collect genius treasures, we already have much more hope than the previous kings! As long as the materials are complete, Pindao is 50% sure to refine the elixir of life! Even if you can't refine the elixir of immortality, there are still no problems with some longevity-prolonging elixirs!"

Kong Kong Daoist Master was full of nonsense and issued a blank check.

The third prince was overjoyed:"Then there will be Master Lao!"

"However, this keel is still too few!"Taoist Master Kong Kong said regretfully:"If I can get a few kilograms of dragon bones, I can immediately start an alchemy furnace and refine the magic medicine you need!"

"The national master is right, but the dragon bones have flown away, and it is impossible to obtain a large number of dragon bones!"The third prince smiled bitterly.

Taoist priest Kong Kong rolled his eyes:"By the way, your highness, the dragon bone is the most precious treasure in the world. If Dawu treasures it, it is strictly forbidden to spread it to outsiders! Where did you get your keels?"

"Master, of course we have our own way!"The third prince is proud of

"What can I do? Can you tell me something about this?"Taoist Master Kong's eyes lit up.

"this……"The third prince was a little embarrassed.

However, he also wanted to obtain the magic elixir from Taoist Master Kong Kong, so he could not offend the master in front of him.

"Imperial Preceptor, this involves a secret of our dynasty and must not be leaked! However, National Master, you are one of our own, so I won’t hide it from you! But after you listen, be sure to keep it a secret! Taoist Master Kong Kong looked serious:"

Your Highness, don't worry, I swear in front of Taoist Sanqing that the Dharma will not be spread to the six ears!""

"Thank you, Imperial Master, for your understanding. I will tell you now! The third prince said in a low voice:"Our dragon bones are all obtained from Lin Beifan, the prime minister and marshal of the army!" He is actually an internal agent arranged by our Dayan in Dawu!"

Kong Kong Taoist priest's pupils shrank!

This news is so exciting and scary!

Who would have thought that Lin Beifan, the Prime Minister of Dawu and the Marshal of the Army, such a powerful figure who is inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people, would actually It's Great Yan's internal agent!

It's definitely the first time that an internal agent can do what he does!

Incense is burned on the ancestral graves!

"real? You didn't lie to me?"Kong Kong Taoist asked one more question.

"How dare you deceive the imperial master? The third prince smiled and said:"National Master, this is indeed hard to believe, but it is true!" Because Lin Beifan is a very greedy person with no bottom line and will do anything as long as he is given money!"

"At the beginning, we spent 4 million taels of silver to obtain the manufacturing method of the flying artifact large balloon from him! After that, he spent another 5 million taels of silver to get the manufacturing method of a hovercraft, a powerful weapon in the water, from him! Even the dragon bones in our hands were bought from him, costing tens of millions of taels of silver. It’s really shameful!"

"However, if he was not greedy, we would not have this opportunity! National Preceptor, do you think so? Haha!"

"Indeed!"Taoist Master Kong Kong laughed.

Not long after, the third prince left because of something.

Taoist Master Kong Kong was the only one left in the room. He was restless, walking back and forth, and was a little excited.

"Lin Beifan, I never expected that you are such a person! What a blessing from God, Taoist Master Sanqing appeared, giving Pindao a chance to take revenge, haha!"

You know, he was kicked out of Dawu by Lin Beifan at the beginning, and all the money he earned was swallowed up by him.

He was very angry and wanted to take revenge.

Moreover, the other party knew the secret of the magic pill and was a huge threat. It must be eradicated.

Now, he finally found a chance

"Lin Beifan, let’s see if you die this time!"

Taoist Master Kong called his young apprentice, gave him a large sum of money, and asked him to do something.

Soon after, a rumor quickly spread from Dayan and swept through Dawu.

"Did you know that Lin Beifan, the prime minister and general marshal of the Wudang Dynasty, was actually a traitor!"

"He is already a highly respected minister, favored by Her Majesty the Empress, and enjoys endless wealth and splendor. How could he betray his country?"

"This thing is eighty percent true! Let me tell you, this news was leaked from within Dayan. Lin Beifan has long been treason! For his own benefit, he leaked the manufacturing method of Dawu's big balloon and hovercraft to Dayan, so Dayan had the opportunity to create these two artifacts!"

"And Dayan’s dragon bone was actually leaked by him!"

"Think about it, whether it is the manufacturing method of the two major artifacts or the dragon bone, only he has the opportunity to come into contact with it. If not him, who else can? Are you right?"

"You said this is really possible! The other party is a corrupt official who will do anything for money!"

"I didn't expect him to be such a person! Disgraceful traitor!"

……

The incident spread like wildfire, and many people demanded a thorough investigation of Lin Beifan and the eradication of the traitor.

There were also some family enemies and dignitaries who couldn't stand Lin Beifan, and they were adding fuel to the fire, making the trouble bigger and bigger, hoping to get rid of Lin Beifan.

In an instant, Lin Beifan went from a highly respected prime minister and marshal to a traitor that everyone shouted at.

This incident quickly alarmed the court.

In the court, the empress was furious:"It's unreasonable! Such baseless rumors can actually cause such a big stir. It's clear that someone framed Zhongliang in an attempt to overthrow our Dawu court, with sinister intentions! Lin Aiqing, your loyalty to the world Ke Jian, I believe in you, don’t take it personally!"

"Your Majesty is wise, I will not take it seriously! Lin Beifan said loudly.

At this time, an old minister stood up and said thoughtfully:"Your Majesty, this matter does seem to be somewhat planned!" However, it may not be without reason……"

The empress became angry again:"You mean, Lin Aiqing is not innocent?"

"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister is naturally innocent! However, this matter has become a big deal and has aroused public indignation, so what Weichen means is not to go against public opinion and conduct the investigation in accordance with public opinion! In this way, it can not only prove the innocence of the Prime Minister, but also appease the anger of the people! Your Majesty, please take a closer look!"

"Your Majesty, please take a closer look!"All the officials said in unison.

This is a bit of a push for the palace, and they want to take the opportunity to mess with Lin Beifan.

They don't know whether Lin Beifan has betrayed the country, but he is definitely not innocent.

As long as he investigates, he will die without losing his skin. The empress said angrily

:"Do we still need to investigate this kind of thing? This has happened three times! At the beginning, my three imperial uncles also framed my Aiqing in this way, with extremely sinister and vicious intentions, but in the end they all proved that Aiqing was innocent!"

"So, don’t pay attention to these groundless rumors! If the news about me continues to spread, whoever continues to gossip, shake the court, and arouse the anger of the people will be thrown into prison to be held accountable!"

"And you, if you continue to stir up trouble and frame Zhongliang, I will punish you for the same crime!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"All the officials were trembling.

So, under the powerful suppression of the empress, these rumors quickly subsided.

But Lin Beifan still served as his prime minister and marshal, and his status was as stable as Mount Tai, unshakable. In the Dayan Dynasty, Taoist Master Kong Kong learned that After this news, everyone was confused:"Can't this kill him?"

"Master, it is said that this matter made a big fuss in Dawu and reached the court, but Empress Dawu refused to investigate and insisted on protecting Lin Beifan. She directly ordered the arrest of those who gossiped, and the matter calmed down just like that!"

Taoist Master Kong was so angry that his liver ached.

After spending such a huge price, he couldn't even hurt his skin at all. It's so fucked up!

Normally, he likes Hunjun the most, but now he hates him so much.

"She doesn't know people well and favors treacherous ministers. This empress is really a fool!"

There is no choice but to let this matter go and look for opportunities to take revenge in the future.

At this time, Lin Beifan squinted at the information that had just been transmitted:"This rumor... came from Dayan?"
