Chapter 1014 Li Ru's chain of plans

"Master Li!"

Quan Ji's face was somewhat solemn, and he said solemnly: "I feel the same way you feel."

"Just don't forget that the people behind the scenes are here to help you and me."

"If you and I really indulge in the cover-up, tomorrow you and I will go to the execution ground together with that traitor!"

“Don’t make the mistake of yourself!”

A bleak look appeared on Li Xiang's face, she bowed solemnly and strode away.

Quan Ji let out a long sigh and murmured: "What a sinister method!"

"What's the public reaction now?"

"Back to the prime minister, the people in the capital are extremely angry, and many people have even gathered in the direction of the Yamen."

"I hope Li Xiang can figure it out!"

"otherwise……"

Quan Ji did not continue talking, but changed the topic: "Aside from my Quan family and the Li family of the Household Department, which other family has been exposed to scandal?"

"Back to Prime Minister, Qin family, Qi family, Lu family, etc..."

"What!"

Quan Ji's expression changed suddenly. If it were one or two families, he might be able to suppress them for the time being by relying on his own prestige.

But now, all the important ministers in the court are basically involved in this turmoil. If he does not come forward, the court will lose the support of the people. But if he comes forward and orders the Ministry of Punishment to investigate and deal with it strictly, he will be on the opposite side of the officials.

After all, not everyone can be like him...

"This is a conspiracy!"

"With my warrant, you go to Jingzhao Mansion in person and instruct the governor of Jingzhao Mansion that any official's heir who violates national laws will be publicly and severely punished!"

"promise!"

…

"poison!"

"It's so toxic."

Mo Rufeng looked at Li Ru with a hint of deep fear. This plan simply controlled the lives of all civil and military officials!

If this plan is put on Dayu, it may not be effective.

You must know that since Dayu established the Imperial Guards, all officials in the court, including civil and military officials, and the dandies at home, all behaved with their tail between their legs and did not dare to overstep the mark.

Even if there are still one or two fish that slip through the net, as long as they are strictly investigated and dealt with, the storm can be calmed down.

But in Da Yan, the officials in the court had almost never experienced major reshuffles. Many of these aristocratic families had been passed down for several generations. It was already common for their heirs to become domineering or ignore the law.

Naturally, no one took it to heart.

But now, the current situation has changed, and one scandal after another has been exposed, which will inevitably arouse great public outrage.

Throughout the civil and military dynasties, few families had clean butts. What should we do?

You, Quan Ji, want to exterminate relatives for justice, but I, Li Xiang, don’t want to!

As a result, Quan Ji will surely fall into a dilemma.

"Master Li, is your heart so dirty by nature?"

"Why did Pavilion Master Mo say this?"

Li Ru looked calm and said calmly: "I just can't stand the bad behavior of these second-generation dandies, so I want to make their guilt known to the public!"

"Well!"

Mo Rufeng was immediately speechless. He thought of staying away from Li Ru in his heart, but his face kept looking forward as he asked: "What's the next step?"

"Quan Ji has ordered Jing Zhaoyin to investigate and deal with it strictly. If so, this storm will definitely be settled!"

"It can even win Quan Ji's support among the people."

Li Ru chuckled and shook his head: "How can it be that simple?"

"Um?"

Mo Rufeng looked at Li Ru suspiciously, and he was racking his brains to think about Li Ru's next move, but after thinking for a long time, he couldn't come up with a reason.

"Do you think that I have been planning for so long just to help the people get rid of a few dandies?"

"Well!"

Mo Rufeng did not continue to talk, and Li Ru had no intention of explaining.

Late into the night.

Li Mansion.

Li Xiang sat in the study with a gloomy look on her face.

"Master, are you really not ready to save Heng'er?"

"He is the only bloodline of our Lao Li family!"

Mrs. Li came to Li Xiang's side crying, and said with a sad face: "Didn't you accidentally kill someone?"

"You are an important minister in the court!"

"My Li family has been loyal to the imperial court for generations. What's wrong with saving my son's life now?"

"He has many heirs, so he can kill his relatives in a righteous way. Why do he force us to follow him!"

"shut up!"

Li Xiang looked solemn, looked at her mother-in-law, and said sternly: "Don't say these words again."

"The Prime Minister has made up his mind. I went to the Prime Minister's Mansion three times today, and I tried my best as a father."

"Master, please think of another way!"

"He is our only son!"

"My mother almost fainted from crying today."

Li Xiang's expression changed and she looked at his wife: "Have you told mother about this?"

"How could such a big thing be hidden!"

"well!"

Li Xiang was also in tears, and said with a sad face: "This traitor, I can't do anything about this!"

"Prime Minister Quan promised to the people in the city that he will personally oversee the execution tomorrow!"

"So what?"

"well!"

…

Jingzhao Mansion.

Prison.

Jingzhao Yin Xuping also had trouble sleeping today. In just one day, the sky seemed to have collapsed. Almost all the second-generation people in the capital were locked up in his small Jingzhao Mansion.

He can't afford to offend anyone he picks out!

"Master Xu!"

A man in black suddenly appeared in Jingzhao Mansion. Xu Ping stood up suddenly and looked at the man with sharp eyes: "Who are you?"

"You don't need to know my identity."

"The Prime Minister has ordered me to bring the second son back!"

"What?"

Xu Ping's face changed slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "What evidence do you have?"

"The Prime Minister's order is here."

"Hmm?"

Jingzhao Yin was stunned, and a look of realization appeared on his face. No wonder the Prime Minister was so decisive, it turned out that he had planned it long ago.

But in this way, after the second son of the Prime Minister's Mansion was replaced, the sons of other families will really go to the execution ground!

Thinking of this, Xu Ping's respect for Quan Ji was gone.

"I know."

"Sir Xu, this matter cannot be leaked, do you understand?"

"Yes!"

"The Prime Minister will personally supervise the execution tomorrow."

"This subordinate knows!"

Half an hour later, the man in black walked out of the prison with a young man, and there was a look of joy on his face.

"I knew it!"

"How could my father kill me!"

"Hahaha!"

Quan Ye's face showed excitement, but the man in black was calm and said lightly: "Second Young Master, this time the master is also taking risks, you must avoid the limelight in the next two days!"

"Otherwise, my Quan family may suffer because of you!"

"Well, I know!"

"Let's go!"

"Where to go?"

The man in black showed a trace of contempt in his eyes, and said calmly: "The Prime Minister has ordered that you hide in the old lady's courtyard for the time being and are not allowed to see anyone."

"Go to grandma?"

"Father is wise!"

"Second Young Master, remember, you must not see anyone, including Prime Minister Quan and your mother!"

"Got it!"

"Father is still thoughtful."
