Ling Kexiong was confused.
But Liu Changqing would not give him any buffering time. With a wink to his men, several people surrounded Ling Kexiong.
"Get it for me!"
Liu Changqing gave an order, and his well-trained men stepped forward and restrained Ling Kexiong in two or three strokes.
After Ling Kexiong came to his senses, he yelled at Liu Changqing: "Liu Changqing, what are you doing? Don't forget that I am a third-level official like you, and you have no right to tie me up!"
I warn you to release me quickly, otherwise I will make you walk around without food. "
Liu Changqing no longer paid attention to Ling Kexiong's screams. After catching Ling Kexiong, he waved his hand and asked his people to withdraw.
During this period, he completely ignored Shangshu Lianghui.
Liang Hui was also more rational than Ling Kexiong. He knew that Liu Changqing was doing things impartially and he had no reason to stop him. He stopped talking for a while and finally said nothing. He watched helplessly as the yamen officers kidnapped Ling Kexiong out of the lobby of the Criminal Department.
Liu Changqing then gave Liang Hui a skinny smile, "Master Liang, I'm sorry for bothering you."
After saying that, he lifted his feet and left.
When passing by Qu Yuebai, Liu Changqing paused inadvertently and gave him a knowing smile without anyone noticing.
With Liu Changqing gone, there is no one left who can bring 'justice' to Fuxianglou. When Ling Fan and others saw their father being taken away in front of them, they had already become ants on a hot pot and had no intention of caring about them anymore. These little people.
Qi Yan and others still wanted to hold on to Ling Fan, but Qu Yuebai secretly winked at him, led his men, and left the punishment department lobby without anyone noticing.
"Mr. Qu, it's rare that they are scared to death now. It's time for us to attack. Why did we stop here?"
Qi Yan was gearing up, just waiting to give these scum a good look, but was suddenly called back, not to mention how depressed he was.
Qu Yuebai showed a mysterious smile, patted Qi Yan's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Young man, calm down. Didn't you see that Ling Kexiong is being taken back for interrogation by people from Dali Temple?"
"So what?" Qi Yan snorted disdainfully.
As the saying goes, officials protect each other, and officials protect each other.
When it comes to interrogation, isn’t it true that the thunder is loud and the raindrops are light
Because someone reported him, he had to be taken back for interrogation, but in the end it was clear that there were no 'problems' and he was released again.
In the end, it was the person who reported it who was unlucky!
Qi Yan has seen this kind of thing so many times that he doesn't believe in the so-called government interrogation.
Qu Yuebai glanced at him and said with a half-smile, "It's fine if you don't believe others, but you can't believe it, Prince Mo?"
Qi Yan replied without thinking: "Of course I can trust it! Prince Mo saved his subordinates from the muddy abyss and gave us a prosperous and stable life today.
The one whom my subordinates trust the most is Prince Mo! "
Qu Yuebai: "That's fine!"
"But..." This Minister of Dali Temple is not Prince Mo!
As soon as Qi Yan opened his mouth, he suddenly understood.
Liu Changqing is probably Mo Junyang’s man!
Seeing Qi Yan's suddenly enlightened look, Qu Yuebai nodded with satisfaction and explained with a smile: "It's not too late to understand now! In fact, what they said is not wrong.
As the saying goes, the people do not fight with the officials because some officials are lawless and do not follow the law at all. The common people are unarmed. Are they just delivering food to others? I think you should understand this after suffering so much at Lingshan's hands just now. "
"Then it's hard to stop fighting?" Qi Yan said angrily, "Moreover, the governor of Kyoto judged the case unfairly and bullied good people. I am a living witness. Even if we sue the emperor in the future, we are not afraid."
Qu Yuebai looked at Qi Yan helplessly, thinking that this man was obviously an evil ghost crawling out of the abyss, how could he still maintain such innocent thoughts
But thinking about Qi Yan's life over the years, it doesn't feel strange anymore.
Although Mo Junyang was cold and distant, as if he could never get close to him, he always gave people a sense of fairness and stability.
It seems that as long as this man is around, everything can be resolved fairly.
As time passed, it was no wonder that Qi Yan did not trust high officials, but still had illusions about the idea of "people suing officials and complaining to the emperor".
Qu Yuebai originally wanted to tell the other party that he asked them to file a complaint, and his intention was to make the matter bigger. He never thought about actually solving the problem by 'complaining'.
But looking at the other party's persistent expression, Qu Yuebai suddenly didn't want to say anything anymore, just smiled and said simply: "Let's see the results of the treatment at Dali Temple first!
If that doesn't work, can't you still report to Prince Mo? With him upholding justice for us, what are you afraid of? "
Qi Yan thought for a while and realized that this was true, and he suddenly felt satisfied.
——
But on the other side, in the palace.
The emperor, the empress dowager, and members of good families were sitting together, secretly discussing Mo Junyang's life experience.
Mo Junyu asked impatiently: "How is it? How is the good minister's investigation? Is Brother Yang the illegitimate son of his father?"
Liang Yuanming looked serious, shook his head and sighed: "More than twenty years have passed since this happened. The servants who served Princess Rui, the servants who delivered Prince Mo, and the palace officials passed away, died of illness, and disappeared. No trace.
It may be difficult to obtain definite evidence. "
Mo Junyu stood up slumped, with a look of disappointment on his face, "Then isn't this matter a dead case?"
He frowned in confusion and suddenly thought, "By the way, where did you get the news? Where was the person who brought the news to you? Where is he? How did he learn about this?"
After asking questions one after another, Mo Junyu was excited and worried at the same time.
It was like grasping the last straw.
However, Liang Yuanming still shook his head and said regretfully: "It's strange that the person who gave us the news didn't show up at all and just spread the news.
When we realized the seriousness of this matter and wanted to investigate further, the person disappeared. "
He recounted how they got the news.
It turns out that the so-called news that "Mo Junyang is Mo Wenbin's illegitimate son" was just a letter handed in by the concierge from an unknown person, which explained the problem and then made a series of reasonable doubts about it.
It sounds so good that people can't help but believe it.
But if I really want to mention the so-called evidence - sorry, there is none.
Yoshihiro couldn't help but interjected: "Isn't this evidence enough? If it's not true, how can others make baseless claims?"
And Yoshihiro felt that in this kind of thing, he would rather kill a thousand people by mistake than let one go.
No matter whether Mo Junyang is the illegitimate son of the late emperor, he already poses a threat, so of course he must be killed to feel at ease!
"What do you know? Shut up!" Liang Yuanming was a little troubled by the troubles made by his naughty son. Seeing that Mo Junyu's expression turned bad, he hurriedly cursed angrily.
He has been an official for so many years and is very good at reading people's faces.
Do you understand very well what Mo Junyu, as an emperor, is thinking in his heart
Unlike them who wished Mo Junyang was dead, Mo Junyu definitely loved and hated Mo Junyang.
Mo Junyu and Mo Junyang have been in the same boat for so many years. To say that they don't have deep feelings would be an absolute lie.
What's more, Mo Junyang is still such a capable person, and Mo Junyu has relied on Mo Junyang for so many years.
If nothing else, it’s time to develop a habit!
It is definitely not easy for him to turn around and regard Mo Junyang as a competitor now.
So if they don't have definite evidence, Mo Junyu will definitely be dissatisfied with them when he doubts Mo Junyang.
Liang Yuanming really wanted to drive a wedge between Mo Junyu and Mo Junyang, but he would not involve himself foolishly.
At this time, Ling Ruiyin spoke.
"A good prime minister and a good commander are quite reasonable."
Others were stunned when they heard this.
Mo Junyu frowned and asked doubtfully, "How do you say this?"
Ling Ruiyin looked at Mo Junyu lovingly and analyzed calmly: "There is no airtight wall in this world. On the surface, it looks flawless, but that's exactly the problem!"
"What?" several grown men exclaimed at the same time.
Ling Ruiyin: "Your Majesty, you are someone who has been in the harem. Let's take your mother as an example.
She has been dead for so many years, but although the people in her original palace are scattered everywhere, it is not impossible to gather them together, and they will never disappear without a trace.
The fact that there is no trace of Princess Rui just shows that there are human factors involved. "
That is to say, someone deliberately dealt with all the people who had served Qi Yue and Mo Junyang and who might have known the inside story.
After Ling Ruiyin said this, the three of them all showed expressions of sudden realization.
Mo Junyu continued to ask: "Then according to what grandma sees, who is most likely to do this?"
Ling Ruiyin pondered for a moment, then asked instead: "Then it depends, who needs to do this
According to Your Majesty, who wants to hide the truth most nowadays? "
"Of course..." Mo Junyu wanted to say that of course it was them, but the problem was - they didn't do that.
Excluding them, only Mo Junyang is left.
Mo Junyu couldn't help but frown, "Grandma means that Brother Yang already knows about his life experience, but he has been hiding it?"
Ling Ruiyin: "It's not impossible. If I were him, I would definitely choose to hide this matter in advance."
"Wouldn't that mean..." Mo Junyu's eyes suddenly brightened, with a little joy on his face.
He said excitedly: "It can be said that Brother Yang wants to follow me wholeheartedly and has no second thoughts, let alone those things that are and are not?"
In a way, Mo Junyu came to the truth.
But Ling Ruiyin sneered when he heard this, and pointed out bluntly without caring that his good family was still present: "Your Majesty, how tempting is your dragon chair and the thousands of miles of mountains and rivers at your feet? Don't you know how tempting it is?"
Mo Junyu was stunned.
Ling Ruiyin continued: "For any man, especially a man like Mo Junyang, do you think he really has no ambition at all? Or on the premise that he is 'qualified'..."
