The fake eunuch who lurked in the palace

Chapter 543: Concealing evil intentions

The two sides confronted each other, and Li Yi dropped Zhou Hou's body.

"Go and ask Ling Shaoqing to come out. If you want my life, come out openly and don't do these dirty tricks!" Li Yi's voice was high.

The crowd watched from a distance, all guessing what the reason was this time.

He doesn't look drunk.

Just as the atmosphere was getting more and more explosive, the guards of Duke Zhongjing's Mansion separated a passage, and a middle-aged man came out.

"Jing'an Marquis, don't rely on the Emperor to favor you over and over again, so you become lawless and care less about the Emperor's difficulties."

"Look at yourself, what do you mean?"

This time, it was Ling Guanjie who came forward, and he yelled at Li Yi.

"You ask your good son what he did first!"

"Stop using this attitude to oppress others!"

Li Yi turned his head disdainfully, "I know he hates me in his heart, but I didn't expect that he would really dare to do it."

"He bribed the guards in my house with the intention of doing something evil. If I hadn't found out in time, I would have let him succeed."

"I have already notified the Ministry of Punishment. I think they will be here soon."

"Others are afraid of your Ling family, but I'm not afraid!"

"Just wait, I won't give up until I get an answer!"

Li Yi's voice was not quiet, and people watching the excitement from a distance could faintly hear a few words.

Their eyes looked at each other with surprise and doubt. Is this true?

In view of the fact that Marquis Jing'an was always messing around and doing too many ridiculous things, even though this scene was serious and not like a joke, everyone still had some doubts in their hearts.

After all, everyone knows that Marquis Jing'an and Ling Shaoqing are not easy to deal with.

Now there is no evidence.

It’s not all up to Marquis Jing’an to say.

But he dared to let the Ministry of Justice intervene, and it didn't look like he was making something out of nothing.

Everyone stretched their necks and watched.

Ling Guanjie narrowed his eyes. With his status, he was too lazy to talk too much with a gangster like Jiang Jin. "In that case, let the Criminal Department investigate thoroughly."

After saying that, Ling Guanjie returned to his house.

Before Li Yi could make a move, the city defense came over in force and surrounded him.

"Jing'an Hou, no matter how serious the matter is, you will not handle it like this."

"There have to be rules."

"Please take someone back with you."

"After all, it is not as powerful as Duke Zhongjing's mansion." Li Yi sneered.

"Step aside!"

With an angry shout, Li Yi galloped on his horse and rushed straight to the palace gate.

"Your Majesty, you must make the decision for me!"

"He even reached out to the minister's house."

"Who knows what night, he will cut off my head."

"Ling Yi is so unscrupulous and murders the Marquis. It shows that he has no regard for you, the Emperor!"

Li Yi impassionedly criticized Ling Yi's crimes.

The emperor looked at him and stroked his forehead. The whole story had been told to Jiang Jin before he entered the palace.

There must indeed be something wrong with Zhou Hou, but there is no proof now. Based on Jiang Jin's words alone, it is impossible for him to punish Ling Yi.

Everything depends on clear evidence, and the emperor must have some scruples when doing things.

The Ling family is not one of those shabby people who can be rounded or flattened at will.

"Jiang Jin, the Criminal Department will investigate this matter clearly."

"You go back first."

Li Yi raised his eyes aggrievedly, "Your Majesty, I personally interrogated and listened with my own ears. How can it be false?"

"Is it possible that Duke Zhongjing's government has become so powerful that even the emperor dare not deal with it?"

"I made a mistake, I'm going to leave."

Li Yi lowered his head, as if he was hurt. He no longer had a close attitude, but looked like a qualified minister who respected the king.

The emperor frowned, feeling a little angry.

He was really spoiled to the point of being lawless!

Now, everyone dares to question him!

"Your Majesty, Marquis Jing'an also regards you as his elder. I have been wronged, but my beloved elder does not come forward to help. When I am sad, I will inevitably speak out."

He Quan, who was standing by the side, spoke warmly with a smile.

As an eunuch who is always by your side, he can feel the emperor's emotions. If his master is unhappy, as a slave, he naturally has to help him.

When Marquis Jing'an was with him on weekdays, he was not only generous but also gentle and polite. He Quan was still happy to say a few words for him.

The emperor rubbed his brows.

"Your Majesty, only with full trust can I dare to speak like this in front of you."

"When Marquis Jing'an first came back, his attitude was very cold."

"The human heart is made of flesh. Every time he gets into trouble, the emperor forgives him and wipes his butt. No matter how cold the ice is, it melts."

"Okay, how much benefit do you get from him for helping like this." The emperor glanced at He Quan.

He Quan immediately knelt down, "I don't have the courage, I just told the truth."

"Go down."

The emperor waved his hand.

After everyone left, the emperor took a sip of tea. Why didn't he allow a family to prosper for a long time?

Power is attractive to the eyes. After being aloof for a long time, people will develop arrogance and always feel that even the emperor has to give him some credit.

If the Cao family hadn't been peaceful and everything went according to his wishes, the emperor would have been replaced long ago.

The Ling family was used as a check and balance, and the General's Mansion was originally a party, but the Lin family's prestige in the military was too high, which made people feel uneasy.

Without Jiang Jin, the emperor might have taken action later.

Jiang Jin's temperament is destined to be incompatible with the circle of powerful people, so there is no need to worry about who he colludes with.

Especially since Jiang Jin has vowed not to marry again, even if the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion becomes powerful, it will not be a disaster later.

It's just one generation.

It is really the most suitable weapon.

It was for these reasons that the emperor was extremely indulgent towards Li Yi.

Of course, it was Li Yi who was sensible and did not touch the emperor's bottom line. He was just more domineering than a playboy.

If he wants to raise troops and stock up weapons privately, the emperor will tell him how to change from midsummer to severe winter.

"Sir, Marquis Jing'an did not act as we expected. It seems that we have to use other methods to lure him to the cellar."

"Should we act now or wait?"

At Duke Zhongjing's Mansion, the attendant asked Ling Yi for instructions.

Ling Yi rubbed the rim of the cup with his hand and lowered his eyes, "Let's wait until this matter passes."

"What I want is that he can't turn over at all, so I'm not in a hurry." Ling Yi spoke slowly.

The cellar is full of weapons and armor. As long as Jiang Jin passes by, he will not be able to escape the charge of harboring evil intentions.

At that time, let's see if the emperor will protect him again.

The emperor was afraid of killing a rebellious minister who was deeply resentful and tried to raise an army to rebel against the emperor.

The emperor can pamper you to heaven, or he can send you to hell in an instant.

Ling Yi pushed Jiang Jin's arrogance from the side and made him arrogant, so that there would be no doubts about his rebellion.

Given the arrogance and wantonness of Marquis Jing'an, is it unusual to rebel?

Now, everything is ready, all that is left is Jiang Jin.

After coming out of the palace, Li Yi picked up the wine bottle and started drinking.

One look at it makes me feel extremely unhappy.

Staggering after drinking, Li Yi ran to Huanhu, which seemed to give him some comfort.

With the water dripping, Li Yi knelt on the ground, immersed in a certain emotion and unable to extricate himself. When he turned his head and saw Mao Wenyun, Li Yi's face turned dark.
