"good."
Miss Liu Er nodded, closed the book, got up and walked back to the room.
Seeing her calm and breezy, without a trace of fireworks, and her back leaving gracefully, it seemed that she was really not interested in this matter at all, Li Yi couldn't help but feel a little chills in his heart.
When things go wrong, there must be a demon. With Ruyi's concern for him, such trivial things as a lip print on her face, a hair on her clothes, and not returning home at night, she would care about every detail and ask the bottom line. How could she care about his treatment of another woman? Commitment not interested
What's more, is this woman her enemy
The eldest princess looked at him with a calm expression and asked, "Are you listening to me?"
Li Yi realized that he had made a mistake, a big one.
When a woman was talking to him, she actually thought of another woman, and the woman he thought of had bigger breasts than the woman in front of him.
He quickly turned his head, lowered his head and said, "I'm listening, I'm listening."
"What did I just say?"
"—"
Li Yi thought for a while, and said: "What did I promise you... There are many things I promised you, which one are you talking about, except that I didn't bring Tang to see you these days, and there is nothing wrong with it Is it the place... ”
"You promised me not to act rashly." Li Mingzhu looked at him, frowned and said: "Do you know how dangerous this matter is and how much impact it will have? This case is not shaking the capital, but the whole world. The courtiers are panicking." , the civil and military officials of the whole dynasty are writing to request a thorough investigation of the case—if it is found out, what will you do?"
"Do you suspect that I did this case?" Li Yi stood up and looked at her in surprise, "I'm really a little embarrassed when you say that, I didn't expect that I am so powerful in your heart, in fact, I am more powerful than you think To be a little weaker..."
"Although those people are all guilty, the government, the imperial court..." Li Mingzhu looked at him and said solemnly: "Have you ever thought that if the Secret Service finds out the truth, what you will have to face at that time will be All the officials and dignitaries in Kyoto..., what would I do without you?"
Li Yi sighed. He originally wanted to cultivate her ability to do things alone, but now, it seems that he is getting further and further away from this goal.
Miss Liu Er came over, picked up Qiushui that was on the table, and said, "Go ahead."
After that, he turned around and walked back very simply.
Li Yi shook his head and said, "Did Your Majesty say anything?"
"Father asked the Secret Service to thoroughly investigate this case, and all the officials and dignitaries who are guilty, one by one..." Li Mingzhu looked at him, as if thinking of something, and said in surprise: "Father knows about this?"
"It is precisely because this case is too involved that there is enough power to drag the Cui family into the water and remove all the forces of the Cui family and the King of Shu..." Li Yi looked at her and asked: "You will never It is well known that the King of Shu is not your Majesty's own, right?"
She looked at Li Yi and asked, "So, did your father instruct you to do this?"
Li Yi nodded.
"when?"
"The day I entered the palace last time."
This matter must be done with the momentum of thunder, so that they have no time to react. It is impossible for the imperial court to dispatch a large number of forbidden troops and ransack the house with great fanfare. Direct and rude, with the tacit consent of the old emperor, the risk is extremely small.
The affairs of the King of Shu cannot be known to everyone, this is not allowed by the royal family, so there needs to be a reason to catch all these people, so as not to leave any future troubles.
Driven by the Liumeng, the atmosphere in martial arts has changed drastically, punishing the strong and helping the weak, helping the poor, and actually doing things for the imperial court in disguise. This force is very powerful, but it cannot be directly used by the imperial court. A long time ago, about this Strength, the old emperor had already reached an agreement with him.
Li Mingzhu looked at him, with a look of disappointment on his face: "You and Emperor Father have discussed it a long time ago, so let's leave it at that."
After speaking, he turned and walked outside.
Seeing the change in her expression, Li Yi hurriedly stood up, hurried to catch up, and said, "I'm sorry, it's my fault..."
Li Mingzhu shook her head and said, "You are right."
"I was wrong."
"you are right."
"I was so wrong."
Li Mingzhu stopped, turned to look at him, folded his hands on his chest, "Tell me, where did you go wrong?"
…
There is nothing wrong with knowing a mistake and correcting it. He admitted his mistake frankly. Li Yi shook his head and said, "I was wrong to hide such a big matter from you, but you also hid some things from me..."
"What's the matter?" Li Mingzhu frowned slightly. She didn't even hide the time of her menstruation. What else didn't she tell him
Sincerity, heart and soul in exchange for the concealment and suspicion of his extremely important person, the feeling of it is hard to describe in words.
"What you're hiding from me is... you don't actually need to drink soup anymore." Li Yi looked at her and said, "If you weren't wrapped..."
…
Her Royal Highness went back, and did not mention any more concealed things. Second Miss Liu walked out of the room and sat back to her original place to read a book.
Li Yi swept his eyes and reminded: "The book is upside down."
So Second Miss Liu stopped reading, put the book on the table, and started to read him.
Li Yi explained: "Just now we... talked about some court affairs."
Ms. Liu Er asked: "Does court affairs also include questions like 'what will she do without you'?"
Li Yi looked at her and said seriously: "I swear to God, the relationship between me and the eldest princess is very pure, just like the relationship between me and you..."
Miss Liu Er thought for a while, and couldn't help but think of him getting drunk that night and breaking into the study in the middle of the night, her eyes narrowed slightly.
…
After all, the Qin Mansion is the Qin Mansion. Even if they bring people out from the Qin Mansion to accept investigation, the secret spy department still has a polite expression: "My lords, take a hard trip."
Qin Yan's face was pale, his eyes were dull, and the faces of the two behind him also had the same expression.
Qin Xiang seemed to have aged a lot overnight. When he walked up the steps, his body swayed slightly, and the fifth master of the Qin family who was beside him immediately stepped forward to help him.
"There are steps, father be careful."
The leader of the Secret Service Division stepped forward and said respectfully: "Master, don't worry, the adults are just going to accept the investigation. If those people set up a trap, we will definitely send the adults back intact."
Until the people from the secret spy department left, Qin Xiang still looked in that direction, and whispered: "If..., isn't it a frame?"
No one answered, the fifth master of the Qin family helped him, turned around, and whispered: "Father, it's windy outside, go back..."
After the three officials of the Qin family who held a pivotal position in the court left the Qin mansion, they never came back.
According to the confessions of those forty people, the Secret Service found the magic cave thirty miles away from the capital without any difficulty, and also found the dozens of missing women. When it was the Qin family's manor, Qin Yan, the eldest son of the Qin family, was an important minister named Qin Yan, and his official career stopped because of this.
Although the charges of the other two were not as good as Qin Yan's, they were involved in several other cases. They couldn't stand the investigation of the Secret Service and were imprisoned one after another.
In just a few days, only Prime Minister Qin remained in the dynasty of the once brilliant Qin family.
And this is not the end yet, with the investigation of each case, more and more spearheads began to be pointed at Cui's family.
In the Cui family's meeting hall, the atmosphere was gloomy.
From the powerful officials to the ordinary people in Kyoto, everyone's eyes are on the progress of this heinous case. All the support they can get in the court is almost completely wiped out, even if there are some left, It doesn't work anymore.
A middle-aged man looked flustered and said, "Second brother, what should we do, just say something!"
Cui Qingming's eyes were bloodshot, but he still managed to remain calm, and murmured: "We still have my mother, and your highness, and your highness will be back soon, the Cui family will not perish, the Cui family will definitely not perish..."
