Speaking of this, his tone was a little sad.

"The old man is already 50 years old this year, and he has lived to the end of his life. It doesn't matter if he dies, but these grandchildren of the old man..."

In ancient society, the most unreasonable thing is this implicated system. No matter how heinous a person is in later generations, at most he himself will be punished. But in this era, because of the need to intimidate the world, there is such an unreasonable implicated system.

The family was exiled into the army, exiled, served as the secretary of the Jiaofang, the three tribes of Yi, the nine tribes of Zhu, the melons and vines...

Waiting for the terrible punishment, the original purpose is to discourage people from committing crimes, but when it is actually implemented, it is extremely arrogant and unreasonable.

Li Xin glanced back at the four or five grandchildren of Li Ye's family. They were all huddled in a corner, it was a bit pitiful, and finally bowed his head helplessly and said: "Fu Zun, I will enter the palace tomorrow and tell your majesty whether How can these little dolls not participate in the rebellion, the court can't be so unreasonable."

Speaking of this, Li Xin paused, and said: "But even if they can avoid death, the Secretary of the Jiaofang or exile from the army may not be able to escape."

"And they probably won't be able to be officials anymore."

Li Ye was shocked, stretched out his hand to pull Li Xin's sleeve, and said in a trembling voice, "Master Li...are you sure?"

Li Xin spoke slowly.

"I'll say it again, Your Majesty will give me some face. This face may not be able to save the Li family, but it is still possible to save a few babies."

Li Xin has a lot of face now, he said the first time the emperor can pretend not to hear it, but when he said it the second time, the emperor will give him a little face, but this kind of face is not without The price, the price is that Li Xin will lose his duty as a courtier and feel like persecuting the emperor.

Li Ye took a few deep breaths, stretched out his hand to beckon his family to stand up, and said in a trembling voice, "Quick, kneel down and kowtow to Lord Li!"

Li Xin waved his hands again and again, frowned and said, "What is Fu Zun doing?"

He stretched out his hand to pull Li Ye up, and said in a deep voice: "When I first came to Beijing, the Fu Zun regarded me as a junior and took good care of me. Later, the Fu Zun went to take care of Li Shen's descendants, and his behavior was even more admirable. The junior There are not many things that can be done, Fu Zun must not do this."

Li Ye stood up slowly, trembling a little.

"Our family has suffered the disaster of a fish in the pond."

Li Xin hesitated for a moment, and finally took two steps forward, and said in Li Ye's ear, "Fu Zun, Li Shen is dead."

"He died yesterday. He, the culprit, did not escape his crimes and died in front of the Fu Zun."

Li Ye forced a smile on his face: "Good death, I will beat him again when I get to the ground."

Li Ye's family was in such a catastrophe that it was all caused by Li Shen or the Pingnan Hou Mansion. It is impossible for this kind of relationship not to hold grudges.

Even if the saint came, he would probably scold his mother.

A performance like Li Ye's is almost the pinnacle of personal cultivation.

Li Ye took a few deep breaths, calmed down a bit, looked up at Li Xin, and sighed slightly: "Do you still hate him?"

Li Xin shook his head.

"A person's death is like a lamp going out. Since he is dead, the affairs of this world have nothing to do with him. I have a clear relationship with him, and it has nothing to do with him."

The former lord of the government took Li Xin, sat down on the thatch in the prison cell, and said slowly: "After he died, how should you deal with yourself in the new dynasty?"

Li Xin lowered his head slightly and said in a deep voice.

"At first, I just wanted to live a good life, but seeing Fu Zun's condition today, Li Xinxin has some other feelings..."

..............................

Li Xin stayed in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice for a full hour before bidding farewell to Li Ye and walking out of the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

When he walked to the door, he found that the minister of punishment was silent, still waiting at the door, Li Xin cupped his hands at him, turned and went home.

This time, it can be said that he visited the area openly and aboveboard. Many people in the capital, including Shen Mo, would consider what purpose he had behind doing so.

Li Xin came here to see Li Ye, but he didn't actually have much purpose.

As a political figure, generally doing this kind of action that many people will pay attention to will have his own political purpose behind it, but Li Xin has not become a complete political figure after all, he just regards Li Ye as an elder, for the Li family I have some sympathy for what happened, so I want to come here to have a look.

What he saw in the prison made him feel a little shocked.

At that time, two brothers, Li Zhijie and Li Zhili, came to the capital from among the Li family in Zhao County to serve as officials. Li Zhijie joined the army and Li Zhili joined the literature. It seems that the reputation is not obvious, but in fact, he has also become a minister of the Ministry of Rites. He is almost the ultimate civil servant.

Therefore, Li Ye's family is also a senior family of the Jin Dynasty, and this former Jing Zhaoyin is also a big shot who lives in Yongle Fang!

Now, just because of an incident that has nothing to do with them, the eleven members of their family were thrown into the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice with a word by the emperor. They curled up in this dark cell like a dead dog. Even my life is gone!

this era……

It's really unreasonable.

Lord Jing'an took a deep breath in his heart, and silently made up his mind.

This is an era where there is no reason or legal principle to speak of. Even if you do nothing, just a system of implicated companies can kill your entire family. What is even more frightening is that the right to interpret this system is only in the hands of the emperor. , just like Li Ye's family, their life and death are just a word from the emperor.

Thinking of this, Lord Jing'an looked back, and the prison of the Ministry of Justice was no longer in sight, but he could vaguely see a huge willow tree, waving its branches in the night wind.

He was a little scared in his heart. He was very afraid that one day his Jing'an Hou Mansion would be thrown into a prison to die just like Li Ye's family, just by the emperor's random excuse...

This is a barbaric era. No matter where you are, if you don't have enough power in your hands, you can only let others slaughter you.

Thinking of this, Li Xin slowly closed his eyes, and his steps became much firmer.

Chapter 635

After returning home, Li Xin took a cold shower, and then fell asleep with the princess in his arms. The next morning, he got up. After standing for an hour, he was sweating all over. She simply wiped her body, changed into court clothes, and prepared to enter the palace to meet the emperor.

While changing clothes, Princess Nine helped him straighten the folds of the court clothes, and said slowly: "After you came back from outside yesterday, you seem to have something on your mind..."

While straightening the imperial crown, Li Xin said with a smile: "The world is safe now, and the troubles in the capital are almost resolved. What can I worry about?"

The eldest princess sighed, and said, "Then what about those two people in our backyard?"

"Early yesterday morning, Ping Nanhou was taken out by you, and he didn't come back. This morning, before dawn, that Mrs. Yu was picked up by Yulin Wei and disappeared. I don't know what you are going to do, but After all, Marquis Pingnan is your biological father in Chang'an, so there is nothing wrong with being raised in the mansion..."

Speaking of which, the eldest princess glanced at Li Xin with some hesitation, and said, "If you don't like him, let's just ignore them."

Li Xin sighed slightly, and said, "Where is it so easy?"

"You also know about Li Shen's crimes. Although His Majesty left him at our house, there are countless people in the capital watching. This is a big trouble."

"However, Your Highness is right. He is my biological father. I cannot kill him because it is against human ethics, and I will not kill him. Yesterday I led him to the late emperor's spirit, and he committed suicide by taking poison."

The eldest princess was helping Li Xin tidy up the court clothes, but she stepped back half a step with an "ah" and looked up at Li Xin.

"Ping Nanhou... is dead?"

Li Xin patted her on the back and said in relief, "Don't worry, I'm here, nothing will happen."
