Chu Qing, who was lying on the bed, was extremely relaxed and soon fell asleep. From time to time, that beautiful face with a beautiful smile appeared in his mind.
Early the next morning, Chu Qing went to the Ministry of Household Affairs Office with a few invitations to see if he could wait for Changxian. He thought about going to the homes of some courtiers one night to talk about "part-time jobs" and report.
Quotation.
When Fu San, who had been specially approved to enter the government office, came to the outside of the squad room, Chu Qing opened the door and was stunned.
"Chen Yan?!"
Chu Qing looked surprised: "Are you still alive?"
Chen Yan, who was sitting behind the desk, laughed, stood up and cupped his hands: "Brother Chu Xian, I haven't seen you for a long time. Brother Yu misses you so much."
"Is the matter at Jingzhao Mansion over?"
Chen Yan glanced at Fu San behind Chu Qing, smiled bitterly, his acting skills exploded, and he was full of lies.
According to Chen Yan, he has been "on the run" these past few days, mingling among the refugees in the south of the city, "evading" the pursuit of the Li family. He has been in fear all day long and dared not contact his colleagues in the Ministry of Revenue. Just yesterday
, a detective from the Qianqi Camp found him and said that the truth about the Beishi murder case had been revealed and it had nothing to do with him. The Jingzhao Mansion no longer wanted to arrest him.
After hearing this, Chu Qing expressed his congratulations, which was sincere, at least on the surface.
He always felt that something was wrong, not because there were loopholes or contradictions in what he said, but because it was something like instinct.
In fact, in terms of acting skills, Chen Yan is the best, and he doesn't have any pig teammates around him. The second-ranked actor should be Tao Ruolin. Although Bihua is not a pig teammate, he always reveals some flaws inadvertently, mainly because he is not careless.
, the one with the worst acting skills is Huang Laosi. After all, Sun An and Su Wei are not good at acting, and the other one has too many extras.
When Chu Qing was in the Chang Dynasty, he knew a total of only a few people who he interacted with frequently. He could count them on both hands. Three of them were acting with him all the time.
Chu Qing didn't see any flaws, but after always experiencing this kind of thing, he felt something was wrong in his heart.
He felt that Huang Laosi was not simple. Firstly, everyone was afraid of him. Secondly, neither Qiu Wanshan nor Fusan had ever heard of this person.
He felt that Tao Yi was not simple at all. His appearance was all that matter. He was on the list of scholars every day, surpassed the rank of sergeant in the capital, and was pampered like something else. He didn't look like a maid.
He felt that the statement was even more nonsense. A civil servant with a bookish face just disappeared in front of everyone. What kind of skill did he have?
Although he felt something was wrong in his heart, Chu Qing could not dig deeper.
However, Chu Qing was quite happy to see Chen Yan alive and well.
They were all "victims" of the Li family. Chu Qing had no intention of hiding it and told Chen Yan what had happened in the past few days, including the emperor's plan to investigate the Li family, the second prince coming out to take the blame, the Ministry of Household Cooperation cooperating, etc.
Chen Yan's acting skills are really impeccable. He obviously knew these things a long time ago and pretended to be stunned for a while.
"That's very good." Chen Yan's expression was quite exciting: "King Langya has been ordered to conduct a thorough investigation to see how long the Li family can continue to be rampant."
Chu Qing shrugged.
He didn't know how long the Li family would become so arrogant, but he knew that King Wu was involved now, and it was open to question whether the irrelevant emperor would allow them to continue the investigation.
Chen Yanhe, who was looking for someone to find out who was in charge these past few years, hurriedly left the cell as if he had been given a shot.
After Chu Qing sat down, Fu San made a pot of tea and said with some uncertainty: "Master, I think something is wrong with Master Chen."
"What's wrong?"
"I can't tell, haven't you noticed?"
Chu Qing leaned back, resting his hands on his head and said: "I realized it. There must be something wrong with this guy. If he was really a nerd, how could he have disappeared quietly under the noses of a group of government officials before, and disappeared so quickly as soon as he disappeared?
For a long time, the Jingzhao Mansion couldn’t be found, and the Li family couldn’t find it either.”
Crossing his legs, Chu Qing continued: "Everyone has secrets. What you see with your eyes may not be the truth. In addition to this statement, Huang Laosi in the palace also gave me a feeling of derision. Even when I saw him yesterday
Tao Yi is also weird in every way. Even if he is favored, there is no reason for the maid to sleep while the eldest lady is waiting in the main hall."
"The younger ones also find it strange. People nowadays are too arrogant."
"Who says it isn't?"
As the two of them were saying this, greetings came from outside.
Chu Qing breathed a sigh of relief: "The Emperor is quite reliable."
He stood up and walked out. Changxian, the second prince of King Langya, had just entered the government office. When he saw Chu Qing, he bowed.
Chu Qing's face was full of smiles.
He was really afraid that the emperor would not let them investigate because of King Wu's affairs, which would be tantamount to trapping him. Without the second prince, the Li family would definitely attack them. Of course, they would do it regardless of whether they had it, but they would not do it with such a big fanfare.
.
After taking Changxian into the class room, Chu Qing asked: "What did your Majesty say?"
"Extraordinary things require extraordinary measures." After Changxian sat down, his face showed seriousness: "On the way here, the student thought that if he wanted to deal with the Li family, he had to start from six places. This is an extraordinary method."
"Let me add one more to you, it will be a very good six plus one."
"What does Master Chu mean?"
"It's okay, just tell me what you want."
Changxian was really not talking nonsense. He had indeed thought a lot on the way here. The so-called starting from six locations can be understood as an all-round investigation and attack.
First of all, we should thoroughly examine the Li family's relationship network to see which ones are close friends, the kind who are both prosperous and devastated when something goes wrong, and which ones are just outsiders.
The second point is that after the investigation is clear, conduct a thorough investigation of the Li family's best friends. If there is evidence of guilt, collect evidence of guilt. If there is no evidence of guilt, find a way to "collect" evidence of guilt.
The third point is tax money. In addition to Xiao County, find out whether other Li family members are also embezzling money from the court.
The fourth point is to let some courtiers tentatively impeach the Li family to see the reaction of the Li family and the reactions of other courtiers.
The fifth point is to cut off the Li family's wings as soon as possible. If you don't move, you will be done. If you move, you will use thunderous means to catch them all.
The sixth point, and the most important point, is to hit the big snake three inches, and finally defeat the enemy with one move, and directly attack the leader of the Li family, that is, the head of the Li family, the current Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.
Chu Qing understood that the emperor was going to start a war.
He really didn't expect that he would take on such a big job for no reason. He originally thought it was to investigate Xiao County, but later he found out that the emperor was so poor that he was forced to drink and wanted to thoroughly investigate the world's tax affairs. In the end, he worked blindly and found that
King Wu was a little implicated, and now he heard Chang Xian's words in a few words. No matter how stupid he was, he understood. The court had to change its blood again.
The leader of the Li family is Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. He has been an official for many years and has promoted many officials. Because of the special nature of his position, he has made good friends with many ministers.
In addition, Chu Qing also knew that this was only a matter that Chang Xian was responsible for. The emperor must have other arrangements. To deal with a family with a big tree and deep roots that have existed for hundreds of years, he definitely couldn't just rely on a big kid and
A small department chief in the household department.
I discussed it with Changxian again, and finally everyone divided the work. Qiu Wanshan could handle the investigation of the Li family's network. Tao Shaozhang would handle the collection of criminal evidence. Wei Changfeng would just explain the taxes and debits of previous years, and he would conduct a tentative impeachment.
The Li family must be Qiu Wanshan, and Lao Qiu happened to have this idea. As for cutting off the Li family's wings and giving Lao Li a kidney blow in the end, it was a later stage of planning, and it was not something Chu Qing should worry about.
After the arrangement was clear, Chu Qing began to teach Chang Xian the tax inspection method. The second prince listened attentively, and it was obvious that this boy had been holding his breath and wanted to impress his father.
