Chapter 172 Persuading the King to destroy his relatives

The next day, Ji Liunian did not go out and waited for the king to retreat and follow in. Sang's messenger was a little anxious and was afraid that Ji Liunian would say any disrespectful words to anger the king. At that time, it would definitely be unfavorable to Ji Liunian. However, Ji Liunian's confident appearance gave him new hope, so he did not stop her.

When the king saw Ji Liunian following in, he made a salute and asked happily, "Is it convenient for the queen to eat and live? If there is any unhued place, please forgive me.

"Sit down and talk. There is no problem with food and accommodation, but I saw a disturbing thing last night and couldn't sleep all night. I wonder if the king can help me relieve this trouble?

"But it's okay to say it, but it's okay to say it." The king glanced at the Sang messenger next to him. The Sang messenger did not look at him, but at the ground.

"Well, I was last night..." Ji Liunian said everything he heard and saw last night. The king's face suddenly turned red. Ji Liunian was secretly funny when he saw that an old man had become like a red rooster.

"It's my dereliction of duty. You didn't catch them and let me put them in prison. These corrupt officials are really hateful."

"I also think so, but the Sang messenger said that he knew them. They were your relatives and dared not act rashly." Ji Liunian's words made the king even more embarrassed.

"Is this... really the case?" The king pretended to hear it for the first time.

"It's true, I won't deliberately smear it. Originally, I was an outsider. This is your internal affairs. I can't control it. But now that I have decided to help your small country, I must not be able to divert all the aid money into the hands of corrupt officials. In this way, I didn't give it. The emperor doesn't know about this matter yet. I don't know if the king can deal with it. I promise that I will never reveal a word to the emperor.

Ji Liunian's words moved the king.

"To tell you the truth, in fact, I have wanted to pull them down for a long time, but there are too many people to deal with it for a while... Look, do you want to help us first, and I will find a way to slowly remove them one by one."

Ji Liunian laughed.

"Since the king doesn't want to cut meat, there is nothing I can do, so I have to tell the emperor the truth. The emperor will definitely deal with it at his discretion. Ji Liunian sneered and was about to leave. The king quickly stopped him. After giving the messenger a wine, the messenger knew that he was a little inconvenient here, so he quietly walked away.

"Queen, let's sit down and talk slowly..." The king was so anxious that his forehead was sweaty. Ji Liunian didn't want to leave, so he deliberately made him anxious.

"If the king doesn't deal with it, there is nothing to talk about. The life and death of the people of your country is up to him, and I don't see it.

"This can't be done. At least there are thousands of lives. The queen is kind and will definitely not bear to see us become like this." The king grasped Ji Liunian's hand tightly, and Ji Liunian pushed it away. He blushed again.

"Then the king will clean up those corrupt officials first. It's just three or four days. I don't think it's troublesome.

"But they all have something to do with me. I can't put them in prison regardless of this face, can I?" Sure enough, after the Sang messenger left, the king did not have so many scruples.

"Why not? You didn't let them do this."

"Queen, do you think this is good? If you can help me, I will give you all the boxes of good jade. This jade is produced by me and carved by the best sculptor. It is absolutely unique and very collectible..."

Ji Liunian understood what the king meant. He wanted to buy her, and Ji Liunian smiled.

"I am a person who loves jade, but compared with jade, there is something more important than this in the world. If the king wants to bribe me, it's wrong. Since there is no conspiracy, I will leave now and I won't bother you in your country. Ji Liunian stood up.

"Don't... If the queen wants me to do this, I'll send them to prison. It's better to be scolded by relatives than by the people and by later generations. The king surrendered with a bitter face. Ji Liunian showed the smile of the winner.

"If it's not convenient for the king to come forward, I can do this for you." Ji Liunian said with a smile.

"I don't look down on you. You are a woman who can't stand it. I can't stand it. Don't worry, I will never let anyone go. They are ruthless, so don't blame me for being unrighteous.

"Well said." Ji Liunian clapped his hands for the king.

Ji Liunian stopped and didn't see the king's action. She was worried about going back like this, so she sent someone to send a letter to Cheng Zun and tell Cheng Zun the truth.

At the beginning, the king bit the turtle like a tiger and had nowhere to do it. Ji Liunian secretly urged him many times. He finally made up his mind and put them all to prison. Seeing such a huge momentum, the people applauded and reported several corrupt officials who were arrested by the way... Suddenly, the people's hearts were smooth, and the king got the support of the whole people.

"Look, if you are dedicated to the people, they know it in their hearts, and they have done a good job." Ji Liunian said to the king happily.

"I caught them all. What should I do next?" The king smiled awkwardly.

"If the circumstances are serious, kill them, which is to warn future generations. If the plot is relatively light, they will be locked up in prison for two or three years and come out after suffering, so that they are often exploited. Ji Liunian said without hesitation.

"Is the cut too heavy? Small countries rarely have capital punishments.

"Then close for ten or eight years." Ji Liunian looked at the king with sharp eyes, but he was still reluctant. This man seems to be burly, but he is very soft-hearted. He is not a king at all. I don't know how he got into this position before.

"That's good too."

"My ugly words are ahead. If you release them after our assistance, we will not be polite to you. Do you understand what I mean?"

The king trembled, and it seemed that Ji Liunian hit his mind.

"I dare not lie. If the queen is worried, she can send someone here to supervise."

"That's natural. I'm just warning you now. It's not too late for you to regret it now."

"No... I don't regret it."

Ji Liunian smiled with satisfaction.

Sure enough, the king did it according to the meaning of Ji Liunian. There were several high-ranking corrupt officials, and the king felt that it was difficult for them to give in, so he beheaded them to the public. Although Ji Liunian didn't see it with her own eyes, she knew all this from Sang's messenger.

Sang's messenger was very happy and thanked Ji Liunian for his help.

"You are really a great benefactor of your small country, really my great benefactor..." Sang messenger kowtowed hard.

"Get up, get up. Take me out for a walk." Ji Liunian learned from the people that there was a heavenly lake here, which was not as beautiful as heaven on earth, so he suggested that the messenger of Sang take her there.

"It's not the right time. It's very cold there. I can't stand it. Let's come and have a look later." Sang's messenger seemed to avoid something, which made Ji Liunian more curious.

"If you don't take me, I'll go by myself."

"That's a forbidden place. People without a gold medal can't enter..." Sang messenger was anxious and spilled the beans.

"Forbidden place? Why is it a forbidden place? Ji Liunian became more and more curious.

"In fact, it was the cold palace, the concubine of the previous dynasty, and the concubine who was beaten into the cold palace by the king, were driven to the top after three years. Although it's not as beautiful as in the world, it's so cold that I can't open my eyes. The queen still won't go.

"If you lie, the people can go. Why can't I go?"

"They just listened to the rumors. In fact, I haven't been there. I just went there once when I sent the Empress Li in... Please give up this idea."

Ji Liunian felt more and more mysterious. Since the messenger of Sang was unwilling to take her there, she went there by herself. Ji Liunian did not believe that she could not enter with her own efforts.

When the messenger saw that Ji Liunian stopped talking, he thought that she had dispelled the idea, so he relieved his mind. In fact, there can't help but lock up the concubine and the king's brothers and sisters, which were suppressed by the king when fighting for the throne. The king was afraid that they would rebel, so he locked them up.
