After Shi Miyuan came back from Lin'an palace, sun Jinnan and Xia Zhen were killed in the palace one after another. Chen Wenduan, who wanted to get rid of him, was not defeated, but promoted to minister of the Ministry of punishment.

If it's just like this, it doesn't matter. Since the emperor ordered Chen Wenduan to act as Minister of the Ministry of punishment, Chen Wenduan didn't have a holiday at all when he returned to Lin'an. He immediately put himself into work and actively cleaned up all kinds of cases left by sun Jinnan, the former Minister of the Ministry of punishment. Even emperor ningzong praised this, and ordered Chen Wenduan to officially serve as Minister of the Ministry of punishment Bu Shangshu

because Chen Wenduan was recognized and appreciated by Emperor ningzong, Shi Miyuan pretended to appreciate Chen Wenduan very much, though he was very upset, and repeatedly expressed his support for Chen Wenduan's work in the Ministry of punishment in public.

Of course, Chen Wenduan knows that Shi Miyuan hates himself very much. But because the time is not ripe, Chen Wenduan usually doesn't conflict with Shi Miyuan. He just seriously deals with the affairs of the Ministry of punishment. In this way, Shi Miyuan has nothing to do with Chen Wenduan for a while.

That night, after dinner, Shi Miyuan thought of Chen Wenduan, who was secretly against him in the court. He was very upset, so he invited the leader of Tianxia sect and Xue Ji, the Minister of Dali Temple who had been restored to his post, to come to his study to discuss countermeasures.

When they heard that their master was going to summon them, the master of Tianxia sect and Xue Ji did not dare to neglect them. They immediately rushed to the main hall of prime minister Shi Miyuan's residence.

Because of the secret meeting in the real mansion, they were not polite. They just saluted Shi Miyuan and sat down separately.

Then they asked Shi Miyuan what he wanted to see them about.

Because the patriarch of Tianxia sect and Xue Ji had been close followers of Shi Miyuan for a long time, so Shi Miyuan did not hide, so he directly told his unhappiness recently.

He said, "after hearing this, the leader and I are looking down on you."

"Why does Lord Xue think so? Although Chen Wenduan is in the limelight now, he used to be the head of the Ministry of rites. Now he has just served as the Minister of the Ministry of punishment. Is he so energetic in the court?" Shi Miyuan said to Xue Ji.

Xue Ji said: "prime minister, in the past, the Ministry of punishment was my territory, which was completely controlled by us. But now, how long has it been? The officials of the Ministry of punishment have been cleaned up by Chen Wenduan, and they are obedient to Chen Wenduan. I feel that if it goes on like this, there will be more people around him. A single spark can start a fire. "

"That's also true. If Chen Wenduan becomes the climate, it won't be as good as ours. Mr. Xue, what you said is very reasonable." Shi Miyuan said.

Xue Ji saw that Shi Miyuan also agreed with his point of view. He could not help but was very proud. He then said, "so I think Chen Wenduan is not allowed to stay. I have to find a way to get rid of him."

"Yes, yes, I'll try to get rid of him, but he's very popular in the holy place now. If I go to get rid of him openly, I'm afraid it will be impossible for a while." Shi Miyuan said to Xue Jidao.

"Then do it secretly." The leader of Tianxia sect, who had been sitting on one side and didn't speak, said.

The leader of Shi Mi's vision world clan said so, and immediately asked: "this Chen Wenduan is now a senior member of the imperial court. There are many masters of the Ministry of punishment around him. How can you get rid of him secretly? Besides, the civil and military officials in the court and even the emperor all know that the prime minister and Chen Wen are at odds with each other. If he is dead, we will surely suspect that I sent someone to do it. In this way, we will not be able to bear the blame if the emperor investigates him at that time. "

Shi Miyuan, the patriarch of Tianxia sect, said to him, "don't worry about this prime minister."

"Why, Lord?" Shi Miyuan asked.

The patriarch of Tianxia sect smiles a little, then asks: "dare to ask Xiangye, has Chen Wenduan gone to Huaixi to investigate the Huaixi military case?"

"Yes, but what does it have to do with cleaning up Chen Wenduan?" Shi Miyuan asked again.

Before the master of daotianxia sect could answer this question, Shi Miyuan burst out laughing.

Seeing that Shi Miyuan burst out laughing, Xue Ji felt puzzled and asked why he was laughing.

Shi Miyuan said: "the patriarch just gave us a good idea. There were battles in the Huaixi front in the song and Jin Dynasties. Sometimes it was inevitable that spies from the Jin Kingdom would sneak in. When Chen Wenduan left the military camp and returned to Lin'an, the patriarch would send someone to kill him at one stroke. At that time, the responsibility would be shifted to the Huaixi army, saying that they did not protect him well and let the Jin people kill him Anyway, the Huaixi army often doesn't listen to my command on weekdays. It kills two birds with one stone. It's great to kill Chen Wenduan and punish the Huaixi army at the same time. "

"Mr. Xiang's wisdom is really extraordinary. I just said a few words, and then you thought out the whole plan. I really admire you." The master of Tianxia sect said to Shi Miyuan.

When Shi Miyuan heard that the leader of Tianxia sect praised himself, he was also a little complacent. He said with pride: "the leader is polite. I still have a way to deal with Chen Wenduan's role.""Depending on me, I will send spies from my brother in the meteor hall to keep an eye on Chen Wenduan's whereabouts and choose a good ambush location. At that time, I will personally lead my brother to carry out this mission. Do you think it is feasible, Mr. Xiang?" The leader of Tianxia sect asked Shi mi Yuandao.

Shi MI, the patriarch of Tianxia sect, said: "it's better for the patriarch to be strict in handling affairs, so that the prime minister can rest assured. Just follow what the patriarch said."

At this time, Xue Ji also said to the patriarch of Tianxia sect: "I also wish the patriarch a successful completion of this mission and a successful return as soon as possible."

"Thanks to Lord Xue." The master of Tianxia sect said to Xue Ji.

After that, the leader of Tianxia sect said to Shi Miyuan, "there is another important news to tell you."

"What's the matter?" Shi Miyuan asked.

The leader of Tianxia sect said: "tell Xiangye that, according to the brother secret report of meteor hall, Gao Yifei, the aide of Zhao Yun, king of Yi, and Chen Wenduan are close to each other. It is said that Gao Yifei often goes to Chen Wenduan's house to get together, but we haven't found out what they are doing together. Moreover, he is also a hero of Song Dynasty Descendants still have some influence in officialdom, so we have to guard against them! "
