Qu Mingtong finally gave in and told everything he knew about the Li family.
Zhou Youwei, the left minister of the Ministry of Rites, secretly collected armaments in Xiao County, and King Wu left many dead soldiers behind before going to the fiefdom. Three things.
These three things were not told to Qu Mingtong by the Li family, but what Qu Mingtong learned from Zhou Youwei.
According to Qu Mingtong, he was not dragged into the thief ship of King Wu. He just followed the Li family and did not know that there was King Wu behind the Li family. The reason why he knew this was because he and Zhou Youwei
Clinging to relatives.
His sister married Zhou Youwei, so Zhou Youwei is his brother-in-law, but he is also Zhou Youwei's brother-in-law, because he also married Zhou Youwei's cousin, so they are each other's brother-in-law.
We have a good relationship, so I go to see the flower boats when I have nothing to do.
The two of them went to the flower boat to have a chat. Qu Mingtong said, Brother-in-law, what do you think of this girl? She is tender and tender. Then Zhou Youwei said, Brother-in-law, what you said is absolutely true. She is tender and tender. He pinched her thighs.
Your brother-in-law and I looked wet, and then the two brothers-in-law went back and forth to play in the water.
Both of them are famous on Liuhe Flower Boat. When mentioning these two people, they all say that they are two crazy and perverted lovers.
You definitely have to drink when you go to the flower boat. It's easy to say the wrong thing when you drink too much. Zhou Youwei always said the wrong thing when he went back and forth. Later, when he thought about it, he opened his mouth anyway, so he told Qu Mingtong everything he knew.
Zhou Youwei is not a member of the Li family, but a member of the King of Wu, and the Li family is the dominant one in Xiao County. They have several secret treasury, which contains a large number of ordnance, longbows, swords and guns, etc.
It is not known which general from which camp he bought it from. Zhou Youwei had several caravans under his name, and he often helped the Li family to deliver these armaments from Xiao County to the King of Wu's fief.
The waiter's sign was that the journey was smooth and he did not encounter any interrogation.
As for the dead men, it was not about how many dead men King Wu "kept" before he left the fiefdom, but that after the new king ascended the throne, he sent many men to the capital intermittently.
The Ministry of Rites was responsible for reassuring the people. The King of Wu sent some family generals or deceased soldiers outside the capital as refugees. Then Zhou Youwei changed the identities of these refugees and sent them mostly to the residences of some court ministers.
Regarding this matter, Qu Mingtong secretly investigated it. Because he was a doctor, Zhou Youwei, the left minister, could not always do it himself, so he left it to Qu Mingtong to handle the matter of resettling the refugees.
, after repeated attempts, Fatty Qu realized that something was wrong. The refugees Zhou Youwei asked him to "settle" were all powerful men, and they did not look like they had escaped from famine at all. In addition, these people more or less brought King Wu with them.
The accent is from the fiefdom, so I guessed it.
After Qu Mingtong finished telling these things, Chen Yan left the government office on horseback and entered the palace to report to the emperor.
Changxian and Chu Qing returned to the class room. The former frowned, while the latter felt his happiness was dropping. Because ignorance is blessing, he found that he had learned more and more nonsense recently.
, and also involved the Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Rites, plus a senior general in the army.
Glancing at Chang Xian, who was frowning, Chu Qing hesitated for a moment and asked, "Your Highness, this King of Wu...is going to rebel?"
Changxian sighed like a young adult, with a bitter look on his face: "I don't know."
Chu Qing was embarrassed to say anything.
Getting his younger brother to change his appearance in the capital, secretly wooing ministers, and smuggling ordnance is not just a rebellion but also a hobby.
"What kind of thing is this?" Chu Qing took a sip of tea and suppressed his anger: "Originally, I was checking the accounts of Xiao County, but it ended up involving so many things. If it were written like this in the online article, it would be
This section was written in a mess and no one voted for it."
"Master Chu, Third Emperor Uncle...maybe he just doesn't want to give in."
Chu Qing said nothing.
If you are not willing to give in, you just want to rebel.
Changxian glanced at Chu Qing, looking like he was hesitating to speak. He hesitated for a long time before saying, "If it hadn't been for the eldest daughter of the Tao family, the Third Emperor's uncle would have been able to compete with his father."
Chu Qing looked at Changxian with a strange expression. He couldn't figure it out when he saw the second prince who had no clue what he was talking about.
Your father is your biological father, and although your third uncle is your biological third uncle, he is your third uncle after all. Why do you sound so pity for your third uncle?
Chu Qing's expression became increasingly weird and he began to think wildly.
Could it be that Changxian... is not the emperor's biological son, so he can't have the shares of King Wu.
Out of curiosity, Chu Qing didn't dare to talk about this kind of thing, so he could only ask: "Then what should we do next?"
"This is a serious matter. Let's wait until Commander Chen asks my father before making any plans."
"Oh, then Fusan and I will go to Qu Mingtong again to pass the time, so we don't miss anything more."
…………
Chen Yan rode fast all the way to the outside of the palace, got off his horse and trotted to the Jingyi Hall.
Huang Laosi had just gone to court and was very happy.
Today, Qiu Wanshan played a new trick, saying that there was a fierce backlash in the "public". The people were scolding the Li family. There must be a reason for the groundless accusation. There must be a reason for wearing leather trousers with cotton trousers. There must be something wrong with the Li family, otherwise the people could
Is this such a scolding? The emperor should thoroughly investigate the Li family and give the people an explanation.
This time the Li family was really angry. Li Wenli, the left minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, retorted for the first time, saying that Qiu Wanshan himself was not a good person and had bad personal ethics, so he had the nerve to criticize the Li family.
Then Qiu Wanshan said, check it, come on, come on, check me, my family's business is open and transparent, check it as you like, come on, come on.
Seeing Qiu Wanshan's appearance of everyone hurriedly hurting each other, many courtiers began to murmur secretly, wondering if it was Qiu Wanshan who was instigated by Wei Changfeng. Many courtiers who wanted to help the Li family were worried about Qiu Wanshan and did not dare to go out.
In fact, Qiu Wanshan is really not afraid of investigation. Ever since he arrived at the Ministry of Household Affairs, he has been suppressed like a dead dog by the cool-minded Wei Changfeng. Even if he wants to use power for personal gain, he has no chance. At most, he will just take advantage of the public.
As for personal ethics being deficient, that definitely exists. The problem is that Qiu Wanshan is the embodiment of personal ethics deficiencies. He suffers more than anyone else, but no matter how much he loses, it still violates the laws of Chang'an. People are not afraid of a bad reputation. They have no reputation themselves.
Can be talked about.
Huang Laosi's favorite thing to watch was civil servants fighting each other. He had a great time watching the excitement this morning. He wished that Sun An would give each of them a knife and start a life-and-death father-son battle.
But after Chen Yan entered the palace and explained the matter, Huang Laosi's good mood disappeared.
"Dead warrior?!" Huang Laosi's face was as gloomy as if he was about to drip water: "Does King Wu still want to assassinate me?"
Sun An was also frightened as he listened. A tax check was like a trampoline, with one wave rising after another. The deeper the investigation, the more involved it was, and the higher the positions of the officials involved.
Just as Huang Laosi was about to ask more questions, he waved his hand and asked Sun An to go out first.
Sun An was very depressed. He didn't know why. As soon as Chen Yan entered the palace, Huang Laosi had to be summoned alone. Even he, the emperor's close servant, had to avoid him. What, what happened to these two people?
