Chapter 111 It's hard to ride a tiger

Qin Mubai has long heard Li Ke say that Quan Wanji has a strong and upright temperament and a little hot temper. It's really fearless, and you dare to fight with others with your head in your head. He once served as Yu Shi Zhongcheng, specializing in supervising the impeachment of officials in the clean government, and did a job that offend people. He once served as an assassin's parent officer in local states and counties, and has always hated the neglect of duty and corruption of local officials the most.

In a dynasty of Zhenguan, because Li Shimin was good at admonition and encouraged it, there were many admonition officials like Wei Zheng who dared to resist dragon scales, and Quan Wanji was one of them. Such an adjutant, even the emperor is respectful, afraid, loving and hateful.

I've always heard that Qin Mubai has seen it with his own eyes this time. Looking at Quan Wanji's style, I wish I could bring Liao Lirong to justice now, and then find out all the evil culprits. But in this way, it will startle the snake, and it's easy to do bad things.

So Qin Mubai hurriedly advised, "Mr. Quan is angry. Liao Lirong has problems, but we don't have to rush to take him now. Mr. has also served as an official of local states and counties. He knows that the officials of local states and counties have always been intertwined, right? At present, if we go to get Liao Lirong, the ground in Jiangzhou is like a thunderbolt, and everyone must be in danger. At present, it is a critical period for disaster relief, so we must put the overall situation first. It's better to put up with it for the time being and investigate secretly, find more sufficient evidence, investigate the case more clearly, and settle the accounts after the disaster victims are settled properly!"

Quan Wanji looked angry. After listening to Qin Mubai's words, he slowly took a long breath and nodded: "The general's words are reasonable. At present, we really should focus on the overall situation. In any case, the life and death of tens of thousands of disaster victims are far more important than cleaning up those corrupt officials who are inferior to beasts. Just send the heads of these thieves for the time being! However, you should report this matter to His Majesty as soon as possible. By the way, can the general report this matter to His Highness?

"Not yet." Qin Mubai said calmly with an unchanged face, "Your Highness is busy with disaster relief and people all day long, eating and living with those officials. I'm afraid that if I tell Your Highness this news, it will affect his mood. Sir also knows that Your Highness has been banned for more than half a year, and it is not easy to have an opportunity to do something. If you tell him these things, it is bound to distract his energy and affect his motivation. In addition, this matter has only started. It's not too late for us to inform Your Highness when there is conclusive evidence.

"It's reasonable." Quan Wanji nodded, "Then, let Your Highness focus on disaster relief and comfort the people!" You and I are secretly investigating this case! After the evidence is conclusive, it will be reported to His Royal Highness the King of Wu to handle the case. You and I are neither imperial historians nor the envoys of Dali Temple, but the King of Wu was authorized by His Majesty the Emperor to be as arbitrary as my own. You and I will report the results directly to Your Highness at that time, which is much simpler and clearer.

"It's so good, just according to Mr. Quan!" Qin Mubai arched his hand and smiled.

Quan Wanji cut his hands and sighed: "What a social misfortune! I didn't expect that there would be such a corrupt official in the Tang Dynasty. It's really not enough to be punished!"

In the next few days, Qin Mubai asked Li Ke to find various excuses to bring him away from him. Therefore, the heavy responsibility of "investigating the case" has actually completely fallen on Quan Wanji. Qin Mubai intentionally or unintentionally revealed a clue to him, a metaphor for the rice used to fill the flood and build the embankment, which is the damage trick used by corrupt officials to make up the caves; the metaphor for the forged suicide note is mostly from Liao Lirong's handwriting, because only he is the most familiar with the deceased Zhu Chengwen and is most likely to imitate Zhu Chengwen's handwriting. Finally, the assassin Chengsong was finally found. On the head of the year. When Quan Wanji learned that he had a close relationship with the Marquis of Shengnan, he realized that the case was a huge case - it was about the prince!

Almost everyone in the whole dynasty knows it. The prince's wet nurse has a younger brother who has no learning skills since he was a child, but he has a very close relationship with the prince. In private, the two even match their uncles and nephews. Shengnanhou's previous surname was Zhang Ming Sande. After Li Chengqian was crowned as the crown prince, he personally went around and sought a marquis for him. The court rewarded Tian Enrong with double the house. Then he changed his name to Zhang Tianci. The intention is obvious. It is probably said that his current glory and wealth are all rewarded by the future emperor.

Zhang Sande and Li Chengqian are more than ten years old. He doesn't know anything else. He specializes in eating, drinking and playing, and has a bad habit - a male pet!

Under his influence, Li Chengqian actually got into this trembling bad habit. It is said that more than a year ago, Zhang Sande secretly entrusted someone to send a male pet named "Linxin" to Li Chengqian. Li Chengqian can't put it down and plays with him every night.

These things are almost open secrets, but I'm afraid the emperor doesn't know. Or, he knows, but he is still pretending not to know.

When the case was found in Shengnanhou, Quan Wanji also felt tricky. Although he is upright, it doesn't mean that he is stupid. At present, the prince is virtuous, and the emperor prefers the king of Wei. It is rumored that the emperor has the intention to abolish the crown prince. If you poke Shengnanhou out at this jux, he is bound to take a hair and move his whole body. Among other things, as long as the "heart" of male favors is made public, it must be an unprecedented royal scandal. This one alone is enough for the emperor to use it as an excuse to abolish the crown prince Li Chengqian!

At the same time, if the people of the Wei Wang camp know, and there is a reason not to play the bottom of the well? At that time, his power Wanji will be invisibly used by the Wei royal party!

It's hard to ride a tiger, and Quan Wanji has never hesitated.

He was never afraid of being killed because the straight dragon scales angered the holy face, and he was never afraid of those who were impeached to retaliate and kill him. However, he was worried that some of his actions caused the great shock of the whole court, which would lead to social loss of social peace and the world.

The prince, the crown prince of the country, is the foundation of the society and the pillar of the court - what will happen to the world if this pillar and foundation are removed by such a thunderous means? How many courtiers will die as a result? The fight for the throne has always been bloody, and there is no peace to speak of!

Now, as long as the prince is defeated, the people who have assisted him before are likely to be killed. Even if Fang Xuanling, who is also the crown prince Zhan, is the prime minister of a country and the most trusted and valued person by the emperor, I'm afraid he will not be spared. Because as long as another crown prince takes power, it is bound to carry out political purges of the former hostile camp.

No one is immune!

......

Thinking of this, Quan Wanji's face changed a little.

He didn't expect that such a huge series of things were involved behind a small corruption case of people in Jiangzhou!

It's really a dilemma now.

If the case is stopped without investigation and concealment, the matter may calm down and will not cause a huge shock in the court. However, this is not his style of power! In doing so, he is not only sorry for the emperor's kindness but also his conscience, which will be more uncomfortable than killing him!

But if the emperor is truthful and the case is thoroughly investigated in accordance with the law... the consequences are simply unimaginable!

......

Thinking of this, Quan Wanji suddenly had an excitement in his mind - wow! Li Ke and Qin Mubai, you actually used me!!!

Quan Wanji was furious and found Qin Mubai at the first time.

As soon as Qin Mubai saw Quan Wanji's expression, he knew something was wrong. This stubborn old man, although his temperament is straightforward and strong, after all, he is also an old man who has been in the officialdom for many years. He is so wise that he must have figured out something!

"Why is Mr. Quan so angry today?" Qin Mubai smiled and said, "Who dares to be so bold and offend our Mr. Quan?"

"General Qin, is it necessary for you to hide the fake in front of me like this?" Quan Wanji snorted coldly, turned around and stopped talking.

Qin Mubai was slightly stunned and thought to himself: This stubborn old man really thought of everything... Well, it's also a good thing to break the window paper. After all, you are now the head of the King of Wu, that is, the teacher of Li Ke, the King of Wu. In terms of relationship, you are closer to him than I am. I don't believe it. Won't you make some sacrifices for his sake?

So Qin Mubai simply opened the skylight and said: "Seeing that you are so angry, I also understand in my heart that you must have understood something. If there is anything to offend, it is all Qin Mubai's fault. Next, I'm not going to apologize to you here.

After saying that, Qin Mubai, dressed in a uniform, shook his hand and shook his hand, and had to bow down on one knee.

It's inconvenient to wear a uniform. When you see the king, you can at most salute like this. No matter how big the official is, he just stood up straight and hugged his fist. Therefore, Qin Mubai is a great gift.

Quan Wanji hurriedly turned around and grabbed Qin Mubai's arms and didn't let him bow down. He looked straight into Qin Mubai's eyes with thick eyebrows and eyes. He was silent for a long time and sighed: "Hey! In fact, I also know that you do this for the sake of King Wu. Although I have been used by you, I am actually willing. The Lord's Death Day is a matter for loyal ministers, and I, Quan Wanji, actually has no complaints. It's just General Qin, do you know... If we really investigate this case thoroughly, how big will it be?

"I understand." Qin Mubai said, "It's a big case when it comes to the prince. In fact, the case is very simple. If it were an ordinary person, you don't have to bother the king of Wu and you don't have to ask Mr. Quan. I, Qin, led a team of hundred riders to take it down and cut off the dog's head on the spot. It is precisely because of the seriousness of the matter that the three of us - King Wu and Mr. Quan - must work together to find a good solution to solve it successfully. Otherwise, not only the court will have a drastic change because of this, but I'm afraid that the lives of you and me will also be affected. It's not a pity for you and me to die. Unfortunately, His Royal Highness the King of Wu was called to come to the disaster relief and the people. He did nothing wrong, but made great contributions to the people. Sir, can you bear to let him be poisoned?
