Unparalleled Concubine

This is what the emperor of Chengde called "counseling".

Most of these civil servants are doves by nature. They don't have too radical ideas. Regarding the matters in southern Xinjiang, they usually think that they can be resolved by procrastinating.

But in the eyes of the Emperor Chengde, it was too late to find out. At this time, in the balance of power between the two sides, the Dajin side had already occupied an absolute advantage, and naturally it was time to do something.

Li Xin pondered for a moment, and then said: "President Huan doesn't have to think so much. Right now... His Majesty is just trying to test the reaction of the Pingnanhou Mansion. There should be a long way to go before the real action."

Lao Huan sighed faintly.

"I'm afraid that the Li family will be frightened, and the Li family will do something drastic."

"That Marquis of Pingnan is not the kind to be bullied..."

Chapter 215 I'm busy with my life

When the emperor wants to move a person, although it is difficult for this person to escape, it is not completely impossible. After all, the emperor cannot resist the general trend.

But when an emperor and a prime minister want to touch a person at the same time, this person cannot escape no matter what.

At the court meeting at the end of July, Li Ji, a censor who participated in the performance of Habayashi Weilang, committed crimes in disregard of the law and discipline, ruined several families, and scattered his wives and children. After hearing this, Emperor Chengde was furious.

"The imperial guards are led by me personally. If the imperial guards do evil, isn't it because I am doing evil?"

Immediately, they ordered Li Ji to be imprisoned in the Dali Temple Prison, and ordered the Three Law Departments to handle the case strictly.

Not only that, Jing Zhaoyin and Li Ye were also affected by the emperor's wrath. On the golden palace, the emperor of Chengde blatantly reprimanded Li Ye for "having a family but no country" and conniving at Li Ji's evil deeds, which made this Jing Zhaoyin terrified and knelt on the ground plead guilty.

However, Emperor Chengde didn't want to make this matter too big. After reprimanding Li Ye, he didn't move his position.

But Li Ye's political career ended here.

Originally, Jing Zhaoyin, a third-rank man, could become a hall official of the six departments or even the prime minister of the three provinces with a single leap, but because of this disturbance, Li Ye basically lost the possibility of rising.

After Li Ji was dealt with, Li Xin naturally took over the position of Li Ji's general. However, the Emperor Chengde behaved fairly well and did not announce this matter publicly. Instead, he secretly promoted Li Xin, otherwise the matter would spread. , Li Xin will soon be pushed to the forefront of the capital.

In this matter, the most unlucky person is Jing Zhaoyin Li Ye. He was born as a scholar and has little relationship with Pingnanhou's mansion. The government is implicated.

When the court was going down, Li Ye looked ugly and walked in the front alone.

Li Yan, the Minister of the Ministry of War, quickly caught up with him.

"Brother stay behind."

Li Ye kept walking and snorted angrily: "If you keep on going, I will be killed by you, don't talk to me!"

A civil servant who had the opportunity to pay homage to the prime minister lost his chance of promotion for no reason, and anyone would have a mental explosion. At this moment, Li Ye is already of extremely high quality if he doesn't swear at his mother in the street.

Li Yan shook his head slowly: "Brother, why don't you see it clearly? You can't jump out of this matter if you want to. As long as your surname is Li, it is a crime."

Li Ye stopped in his tracks and said with a sneer, "That Li Ji, the old man reminded him when he harmed merchants in the capital, but when did he hear about it? Now that his matter is out, you want to shirk it on the surname up?"

"The surname Li on his body told him to do evil?"

Li Yan took a deep breath and said, "Li Ji did suffer from personal morality, but he just made some mistakes in the past few years. Now, it has been three years since he took his wife and daughter last time. No one cares about it, but at this time it is taken out to make a fuss again, isn't it because someone with a heart is causing trouble?"

Li Ye narrowed his eyes, hehe coldly: "Who are you talking about with a heart? Are you saying that His Majesty is not good enough?"

Li Yan looked serious.

"Whoever takes over Li Ji's position is the one with a heart!"

Li Ye fell silent.

In fact, when things have progressed to this point, anyone who is smart can tell that this is the current emperor cleaning up the guards, and the person who takes over Li Ji's position is at best just an errand.

Li Yan took a deep breath and said, "Brother, now that the situation has become so severe, it is up to the elder brother to decide what the Li family should do. Tonight, the younger brother is hosting a banquet in the Hou's mansion. Please give me your honor! "

Li Ye shook his head and refused without hesitation.

The Master Jing Zhaoyin sneered and said: "Don't you want to harm me, if I keep in touch with the Li family, don't talk about this official hat, even my life will be lost!"

After finishing speaking, this Lord Jing Zhaoyin walked away in a huff.

Li Yan looked at the back of Li Ye going away, and shook his head involuntarily.

"Some things are useless to avoid. If you don't go to him, he will come to you."

Li Yan didn't even complain about his leave, and left the imperial city directly after leaving court, and walked towards Pingnanhou's mansion.

After arriving at the Hou Mansion, Li Yan found the mistress Mrs. Yu by himself.

Madam Yu was drinking tea in her room at the moment. Seeing Li Yan rushing back, Madam Yu quickly put down the tea set in her hand and said with a smile, "Second Uncle, what happened?"

"Li Ji has been arrested."

The Minister of the Ministry of War said: "Your Majesty's fangs have appeared, Madam, we have to start making preparations."

Madam Yu's complexion suddenly became serious, and she said, "What preparation?"

"The first is the preparation for you and the eldest son to leave the capital. Although this preparation may not be necessary, Mrs. Sister-in-law must start making preparations now."

Madam Yu's expression was a bit uneasy: "Has it reached this point already?"

Li Ye lowered his head slowly, with a dignified expression on his face: "In any case, since the Son of Heaven has started to attack us slowly, we must be mentally prepared, but Mrs. Sister-in-law doesn't need to worry, the matter is far from irreversible. .”

Li Yan's eyes are bright.

"If my elder brother makes my younger brother do this in the capital, then Mrs. Sister-in-law doesn't have to leave the capital. Our Li family can stay in the capital for at least another 20 years!"

Madam Yu stood up and gave Li Yanfu a blessing: "Second uncle is here."

I have to say that it is very different to have a man in the family. When Mrs. Yu was in charge before, she always felt that she could not do anything. Something happened, and I wasn't too flustered.

The Marquis of Pingnan had planned to flee the capital for a long time. After Li Yan finished speaking, Madam Yu went down to prepare to go.

In fact, if nothing serious happened in the capital, it would be very difficult for the Li family to escape from the capital. The Pingnan Hou Mansion's plan to escape from the capital was nothing more than talking about human affairs.

After Mrs. Yu left, Li Yanyan summoned a diehard he brought back from southern Xinjiang, and said in a deep voice: "The order will be passed down, the plan made earlier can be used now, go down and do everything right away." Get ready, let's do it according to the scheduled time."

The man hesitated and glanced at Li Yan.

"Second Master, do you want to ask Lord Hou about this matter first?"

Li Yan's eyes widened with anger, and he shouted: "What time is it? How can I still have time to write to Nanjiang? Elder brother asked me to take charge of the affairs of the capital. You have to listen to me. Go!"

The man nodded, bowed and stepped back.

"Humble position obeys..."
