December 15th of the first year of Dalong Yongping is the last grand meeting of the first year of Yongping.
Today, five days have passed since Ren Qingrui's incident. Liu Mingzhi stayed in the mansion and never showed up, not even attending the small court meeting on December 12th.
The matter between Ren Qingrui and his daughter and some officials who were involved was made public by Li Ye in the court. All the officials were in an uproar, and finally the matter was handled intensively according to Li Ye's wishes.
The father of Demon Queen Ren Qingrui, the father of the country Ren Wenyue has been missing since he was imprisoned by Young Master Liu and came out of Zhao Prison. After Ren Qingrui's incident broke out, the Imperial Guards, the Forbidden Army, and the three government officials searched every corner of the capital.
No trace of Ren Wenyue was found.
The sea arrest documents issued by the Sanfa Division to the various state capitals near the capital were completely silent. The entry records of the city gates of each state capital contained no information about Ren Wenyue at all, not even anyone who looked similar to him was found.
Ren Guozhang, who embezzled a large amount of money to repair the imperial tomb, seemed to have evaporated out of thin air.
If all the officials involved with Ren Wenyue, big and small, had not confessed and were arrested by the three government officials, the officials in the DPRK and the Central Committee would even have some doubts about whether Ren Wenyue's incident was just a dream of themselves and others.
It's really unbelievable that a perfectly good living person would disappear without any warning.
Everyone knows that Ren Wenyue fled out of fear of crime, but how he escaped is a bit strange.
As the New Year approaches, a large number of government officials miss the chance to rest and relax, and under the orders of their superiors, they begin aimless searches for Ren Wenyue's traces.
The crow of the cock woke Mr. Liu from his deep sleep.
He stretched out his arms and stretched out. Young Master Liu took a breath and opened the bed curtains to take a look at the sky outside.
"I go!"
Young Master Liu patted his chest and looked angrily at the Queen who was holding her cheeks and playing with her hair and staring at him with a lazy look on her face.
"Why did you wake up so early? You shouldn't. You were so tired yesterday that you didn't even want to say anything!"
The queen sighed and stretched, her thin lingerie revealing the snow-white skin underneath.
The Queen gently leaned on the bedside and stretched her fair neck: "I'm used to it. When I was in the Kingdom of Jin, I woke up earlier than now. When the rooster crows for the second time, I have to take a shower and change clothes to prepare for the morning. It's good to wake up.
After a while, I saw that you were sleeping soundly, so I didn’t disturb you."
Liu Mingzhi nodded clearly: "Look, what are the benefits of being an emperor? He sleeps later than a dog and wakes up earlier than a chicken."
"Everyone says that the emperor is good, but he knows that being ordinary is human nature!"
The Queen gently combed her hair that fell down to her collarbone, and looked curiously at Young Master Liu who was putting on his clothes and getting ready to get up.
"What are you doing? Don't tell Wanyan that you are going to court? Why did I hear that you, Master Liu, are going to court for three days to fish and two days to dry nets? Why are you so diligent today?
?”
Liu Mingzhi slowly put on his clothes and smiled bitterly.
"This is one moment and another, and there must be a limit to laziness. You don't have to go to the small court, but you have to go to the high court. What's more, it's the last high court of the year."
"In the first year of junior high school, it was supposed to be a day of rest, but forget it, it's just some mundane things that are not worth mentioning, so let's not talk about it."
"Now that it's over, the days of Xiu Mu have been postponed to the fifteenth day before the last court meeting."
"It's time for Daxing to award rewards and settle accounts with the Queen of Autumn."
The Queen opened the bed curtains and looked at Young Master Liu's complex expression: "It seems that you have been mentally prepared for it! You mobilized 400,000 soldiers and horses from the Western Regions that do not belong to you without authorization. It seems that your position as King of Side by Side is no longer available."
"But it can be considered a good result, much better than the Zhanli Jue."
"After all, according to the law, you don't even have a chance to return to Beijing. You will have to commit suicide in northern Xinjiang to apologize."
Liu Mingzhi put on his jade belt with a python pattern and glared at the queen angrily: "What's the matter? Are you happy that your man has been punished?"
"It seems that I didn't punish you enough yesterday. Don't worry, the days are still long. I have plenty of time to slowly make you, the charming and enchanting queen."
The Queen gave Young Master Liu a charming look and lay down with her cheek in her hand.
"I'm waiting for you, just don't come back crying after the court is over."
"Don't worry, you won't get what you want."
"I won't argue with you anymore. I'm going to wash up. You should sleep more. Lack of sleep will make you old. When you get old, I will abandon you and find a young and lovely little beauty to have fun with."
"
Young Master Liu responded with an exquisite embroidered shoe.
The Queen looked faintly at Mr. Liu who ran out of the room with his head in his arms. She raised her hand and knocked on the wooden wall with a smile.
"Little goblin, didn't you get a good rest last night? Was there too much movement that made you excited?"
"There's nothing I can do about it. Who makes your sweetheart so capable and fierce?"
"I can't help but blame me. It's a pity that you can only act in a hurry but have no chance?"
A moment later, a sound of tapping on the wall came from the silent room.
"Slut, get out!"
"Hmm, I'm happy to do it, but you think about it, do you have the strength?"
The Queen snorted a few times, turned around proudly, and twirled her messy hair thoughtfully with her slender fingers.
"Judging from Wu Guang's reaction in the past few days, something terrible has happened within Dalong. It seems that I, Dajin, will have a few more opportunities to recuperate."
"I'm afraid I won't be able to get anything out of you with my heartless talk. In this case, I can only start from other places."
Outside the gate of Liu Mansion, Liu Song held up a torch and looked at Young Master Liu, who was riding towards the palace.
"Master, the snow is very slippery, so be careful."
"I understand. Don't forget what I told you. Prepare some gifts that are not too expensive. Master, I will use them when I come back."
"I understand, young master, don't worry, young master!"
"Hush!"
"The general is meeting with the prince. Why does the prince come so early? The general is not used to it."
Liu Mingzhi turned over and dismounted, handed the reins to the Forbidden Army at the side, and looked at Yang Tai with a faint smile: "I went to bed early yesterday and got up when I couldn't sleep. How is the investigation of Juventuo's matter going?"
"He committed suicide. No clues were found on the people who were related to him."
Liu Mingzhi nodded helplessly: "He committed suicide again. Is death really so worthless? Human life is really fragile and pitiful."
"This also just shows that the methods and power of the people behind the scenes are greater than I expected."
Yang Tai looked around and moved towards Young Master Liu.
"Your Majesty, can you move to speak."
"Of course, go over there!"
"Your Majesty, please."
At the corner of the palace gate, Young Master Liu stopped and waited for Yang Tai to speak.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid things will be difficult to progress."
"Several officials involved in the case committed suicide out of fear of guilt before the officials of the Third Division arrived. The remaining small shrimps could not provide any strong evidence at all. The head of the state, Ren Wenyue, was missing and seemed to have disappeared out of thin air."
"His Majesty sent three thousand imperial troops, two thousand three-division government officials, and two hundred imperial guards to secretly pursue and seize it, but in the end nothing was found."
"This Ren Guozhang seemed to have grown wings and flew away without leaving any trace."
"Now the brothers can only search blindly. I hope God will show mercy and gain something."
Liu Mingzhi nodded lightly, with an extremely calm expression on his face, without any surprise at all, as if he had expected such a result.
“What was the reaction from North Korea and China?”
"The clouds are gathering, some are happy and some are sad."
"Many people obviously have close contacts with Ren Guozhang, but once Ren Guozhang disappears and no strong evidence can be found, we can only watch these officials get away with it."
"There is nothing the Sanfa Division can do. After all, they are all important officials in the court. Without evidence, they cannot be arrested and tortured in Zhao Prison to force confessions."
"There are some small fish and shrimps with solid evidence, but the evidence they asked about is irrelevant results, and they can't prove anything at all!"
"It's difficult. I'm afraid no one will have a good time this year."
Liu Mingzhi chuckled and patted Yang Tai on the shoulder, turned around and hurried towards the palace.
"I don't think so, but I am living a very comfortable life."
Yang Tai stared blankly at the back of Young Master Liu as he walked away gracefully, shook his head helplessly and walked towards the palace gate, continuing to stick to his post.
