Compared with the Ministry of Household Officials, the Ministry of Works, one of the six departments, does not seem to be so important, but a squire was taken to the Criminal Department for investigation, which is still a lot of turmoil for the entire court.

Although I don't know what the result is, according to the current situation, Li Shilang is afraid that he will be more auspicious.

The results of the investigation of the Criminal Department or the Secret Spy Department have always been only the results that His Majesty wants, and it is really necessary to investigate them meticulously.

Fortunately for the other officials, although His Majesty has changed greatly these days, and even his temperament has become violent, and the mistakes of the courtiers are far less lenient and tolerant than before, but they are only within a certain limit.

This time, Li Shilang of the Ministry of Industry happened to exceed that limit.

However, for other officials, the second to third year of Jinghe is really unfavorable.

The officials in the faction have suffered one by one, and now it has been the turn of the four-rank officials, and even the king of Shu himself has been expelled from Kyoto, and the Qin prime minister has rarely spoken out in the court, and in just over a year, the advantages that were originally obtained in a few decades have been minimal.

His Majesty's health is getting worse and worse, but at this time, he expelled the King of Shu and suppressed the officials of the King of Shu, could it be that His Majesty was really disappointed in him, and he had other plans in his heart?

These speculations and doubts began to emerge in the minds of more and more people, lingering.

……

"Why are there so many idiots in this world?"

Somewhere in Kyoto, Qin Yu held a plump woman in his arms, took a glass of wine, shook his head and said.

Chen Lijun sighed and said: "The Li family is finished, the squire of the Criminal Department personally took someone to raid the house today, Li Jianren's funeral has just been completed, I am afraid that I will have to come again." ”

The Li family, where the Ministry of Labor's squire is located, will be completely erased from the list of Kyoto's magnates this time.

Li Jianren died, and it was not meaningless that he died, at least he pulled the entire Li family to become his funeral object.

Chen Lijun glanced up, in the entire Kyoto, if you want to say that Li Yi's hatred, there are few people who can compare to Qin Yu.

However, even he could only hold back, those fools, who gave them confidence.

Bang dang!

Cui Chengyu threw an object on the table, made a crisp sound, glanced at the plump woman in Qin Yu's arms, and said, "You go out first." ”

"Thank you, Childe!"

Seeing a crystal clear bracelet on the table, the woman's eyes were straight, and she grabbed it, hid it in her sleeve, and said, "Thank you, thank you, thank you, the woman will go!" ”

After the woman left, Qin Yu glanced at Cui Chengyu in some surprise and asked, "When did you become so generous, and you can give the glass bracelet casually?" ”

"It's all something that doesn't deserve it." Cui Chengyu shook his head and said, "I have something to ask you." ”

Qin Yu sighed and said, "The Cui family is really a big business, it can't be compared, it can't be compared, it can't be compared......"

Cui Chengyu looked at him and asked seriously, "What does Qin Xiang think?" ”

Qin Yu glanced at him and asked, "Is it Cui Chengyu who is talking to me, or is it the eldest young master of the Cui family?" ”

"Little Grandpa Qin." Cui Chengyu stood up, arched his hand, and asked, "I need to know your Qin family's attitude." ”

At this moment, he represents the Cui family, and after the Qin Mansion has eaten a few closed doors, the Cui family is eager to know the true attitude of Qin Xiang and the civil official group of Qin Xiang's family.

Qin Yu glanced at him, waved his hand, and said, "Sit down and say ......"

Not long after, in a teahouse opposite the Qinglou somewhere, a man sitting by the window watched several young people come out of the Qinglou and turned to go downstairs.

Several servants invited by the teahouse performed on a makeshift stage, and the guests were sitting below, and the man walked to one place and whispered to the middle-aged man sitting there: "Fifth master, they are out." ”

"Listening to the teahouse, it's different from the hook bar, it's boring, let's go......" The middle-aged man stood up, shook his head, and the two walked out of the teahouse and walked straight to the teahouse opposite.

……

The prison of the Criminal Department.

The former waiter of the Ministry of Works, sitting at the table, this cell is unusually clean, there is no trace of peculiar smell, the food on the table in front of him is fragrant, and there is no shortage of wine and food.

He poured himself a glass of wine, enjoyed the meal slowly, and only after a stick of incense did he slowly wipe his mouth with a clean handkerchief, looked at the young man opposite and said, "Lord Liu is a good method." ”

Liu looked at him with one hand and said, "Master Li, if there is anything else you want to eat, I told them to buy it." ”

"The appetite of the mouth is not worth mentioning." The waiter of the Ministry of Works waved his hand and said: "I thought that there would never be such a day, the sky is not as good as the people, for Lord Liu, Li admires." ”

"If you don't want people to know, you can't do it unless you do." Liu shook his head with one hand and said, "I knew this was the case, why bother in the first place?" ”

The middle-aged man on the opposite side smiled and said, "People are in the court, they can't help themselves, Lord Liu is still young, you will understand in the future, above this court, who dares to say that he is clean in front of and behind him?" ”

Liu looked at him with one hand and asked, "So, is Master Li planning to carry those things down alone?" You don't know what the consequences of these charges will be when they add up, right? ”

The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "Let's stop here, otherwise, it will be a curse or a blessing for Lord Liu." ”

After a pause, he looked up at Liu Yishou and said, "Li doesn't ask for mercy, I just hope that Lord Liu's subordinates will be merciful and leave a little incense for my Li family, and Li is grateful." ”

"There is also reason in addition to legal principles, and Lord Li's request is not excessive." Liu Yishou nodded and said.

The middle-aged man stood up and bowed to him, "Thank you, Lord Liu." ”

"Before I do that, though, I have one more question." Liu Yishou nodded, looked at him and said.

"Lord Liu, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

Liu looked at him with one hand and said word by word: "Twenty years ago, how much did Master Li know about the incident of Yong'an Palace?" ”

The middle-aged man's face changed greatly, but he returned to normal in an instant, shook his head and said, "This official doesn't know what Lord Liu said?" ”

Liu glanced at him with one hand and said, "In that case, this official will leave!" ”

After saying that, he turned around and left, and was extremely decisive.

"Keep my Li family's incense."

As he stepped out of his cell, a difficult voice came from behind him.

……

……

Between the mountains and mountains, a team of nearly 100 people, surrounded by several carriages, walked slowly.

"Guess how long he'll sleep today, I guess ten hours." In front of a certain carriage, a man in yellow looked back and said.

Another man in yellow thought for a while and said, "I guess more than eleven hours, twelve hours a day, it is convenient to eat for one hour at most, and bet one or two pieces of silver." ”

"Bet!"

As soon as the other finished speaking, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and the young man asked, "Where is it?" ”

"After a few more days, we will arrive in Shuzhou." A man in yellow said immediately.

The young man nodded, but did not enter the carriage again, but leaned in front of it and admired the scenery around him.

The man in yellow was slightly stunned when he saw this, and asked tentatively, "You, aren't you sleeping?" ”

"I don't sleep." The young man shook his head and said, "It's stuffy inside the carriage, come out to breathe." ”

The man in yellow counted with his fingers, and in another hour, he would have slept for eleven hours in one day, and he would have a tael of silver in his hand, but if he continued to look at the scenery, his silver would fly......

He looked at the young man and whispered, "Why don't you go in and sleep for a while, and I'll help you roll up the curtains and open the windows, so it won't be too stuffy......"

The young man thought for a moment, nodded and said, "That's fine." ”

A short time later, another sound of gnashing of teeth came from outside the carriage.

", you're cheating!"

……

"The woman spares her life, the woman spares her life!"

On the rugged mountain road, more than a dozen bandits and rogues who were still ferocious just now all fell to their knees at this moment, their faces pale and their voices trembling.

Did you see it? The young woman with the sword asked in a cold voice.

"Yes, yes!"

A bald thief nodded hurriedly and said, "Two days ago, a group of people passed by like the woman said, but there were many of them at that time, and we didn't dare to do it!" ”

"Where did they go?" The woman asked coldly.

"Shuzhou!"

The bald bandit immediately reached out and pointed in a certain direction.

There was no sound for a long time, he mustered up his courage, looked up, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, and sat down on the ground.

The female devil is finally gone!

After a while, the bald thief turned around, gritted his teeth and said, "Who hasn't failed yet, the first business failed, don't worry, come back tomorrow!" ”

A day later.

"Senior, senior, three days ago, the person you said passed by here three days ago and went to Shuzhou!" The bald bandit's face was covered with blood, and he was swinging all over his body, and said to an old man in front of him.

"If the old man finds out that you lied to me, be careful of your head!" The old man glanced at him, and his figure disappeared in place in an instant.

After a long time, the bald thief got up from the ground, patted the dirt on his body, and walked forward in a daze.

"Big brother, where are you going?" There were several anxious voices behind him.

The bald thief wiped a handful of tears and said in a trembling voice: "I want to ...... from the good"
