After rebirth, I joined forces with my mortal enemy to seek revenge.

It's rainy in summer, and the already eerie Yushitai becomes even more terrifying amidst the constant thunder. Thunderbolts penetrated the house through the windows and reflected on everyone's faces. The candles on both sides were blown precariously by the ferocious wind.

Everyone on the Yushitai was sitting in different stages. They all sat quite upright and held their breath.

The gaze of Master Cui, who was at the top, passed over everyone's faces, and finally turned to Pei Jiaoran. With a sigh, he waved his hand for everyone to leave and go to their respective public rooms to rest.

The public housing in West Tui and East Tui is in the same place. Yuan Yanchong was originally walking behind, but when he saw Pei Jiaoran preparing to close the door, he started to chase after him.

Glancing at Yuan Yanchong who was blocking the door, Pei Jiaoran frowned and asked, "Is something wrong with Yuan Sanduan?"

"Do you know what will happen?" Yuan Yanchong said solemnly.

"Would I be here if I knew? Yuan Yan advised you not to delve too deeply into what happened." Pei Jiaoran glanced at him and said calmly: "As a censor, you just have to fulfill your duties as a censor. Who has it? If someone is wrong, impeach them, and the rest is best left alone.”

After saying that, Pei Jiaoran stretched out his hand to push Yuan Yanchong out and slammed the door. Compared with others who are worried about who will be killed, she is more concerned about the changes in the situation between North Korea and China.

After Wuchang Li was demoted, she turned to Jia Gonglu. The situation in the court was changing so fast that it was shocking, and today's assassination was unprecedented in her memory of her previous life. She couldn't tell what the consequences of this incident would be.

But judging from what happened tonight, although I was very angry, I didn't show any intention of pursuing it too deeply. Otherwise, he wouldn't just let everyone leave so simply. Therefore, she had a vague guess in her mind, that is, whether this matter was done with the tacit consent of the emperor, with the intention of cleaning up the center and rebalancing the two parties.

Wang Yu's ability is still far inferior to that of Wuchang Li.

After rubbing Pei Jiaoran, he walked to the desk and drew some pictures. Based on memory, I listed the relationships between the courtiers on the paper. Which ones were consistent with Wang Hui's stance and which ones were consistent with Jia Gonglu's stance. Both sides were marked with different symbols.

Except for a few whose positions are unclear, most officials in the Central Committee and even in the Sixth Department and Nine Temples and Five Prisons belong to two parties.

They are interlaced like canine teeth, checking and balancing each other.

The name of the Minister of Hubu was crossed out with a red pen, and the names of several criminal officials of Bibu were also crossed out.

"It's the summer tax." Pei Jiaoran suddenly understood.

The purpose of Zhang Rang and Jia Gonglu's move was to deal with the two taxes. Only by kicking down the people from the Ministry of Finance can their people be involved.

I'm afraid that Mr. Li was also instigated by someone to say such rebellious words. As soon as Li Shilang dies, the position of Hubu Shilang will be vacant, and the summer tax paid on the state roads will arrive in Chang'an soon. In order to ensure that the taxes are smoothly deposited into the treasury, someone must be arranged to serve as the Minister of Household Affairs before then.

I'm afraid Jia Gonglu has already made preparations. He will recommend the most suitable person to join the household department.

With his thoughts at this point, Pei Jiaoran put down his pen and sighed.

When the property is being deposited in Taicang or Zuozang, the censor and the censor in the palace need to be on site to supervise. And Zhixitui, who is in charge of her, happens to be in charge of the Taicang cashier. If someone behaves inappropriately when cashiering, she can impeach that person immediately.

Since Zhang Rang had his mind set on Xia Shui, it was probably because the money in the internal treasury was no longer enough to satisfy him. So he transferred taxes from the state treasury to the internal treasury so that he could line his own pockets. But in this way, the national treasury will be empty and it will be difficult to sustain the military expenditure. Only by increasing taxes in the Jianghuai region can the empire be maintained.

Putting his hands on the desk, Pei Jiaoran frowned.

Although Shi Yushi, who knew Xitui, was in charge of the affairs of various companies in the capital and could redeem stolen goods and work for the Xiaosansi, he actually only had the power to supervise the payment of crimes and could not participate in the decision-making of the central government.

The supervisory officials sound majestic, but in fact nothing can be done without power.

She can be considered very passive at the moment and must obey Jia Gonglu's arrangements, otherwise she may be kicked to the side at any time.

So she still has to live with the light. But once she gets too close to the light, what awaits her is also unknown.

Opening the window, Pei Jiaoran leaned on the railing and looked into the distance. Big raindrops hit the tile eaves with a crisp sound, and the rainwater trickled down like a rain curtain. Everything around him was hazy, and thunderbolts tore through the night and fell into the house.

All the public rooms in the Yushitai were brightly lit, and everyone seemed to have trouble falling asleep.

You should think about it. The death of Li Shilang is a lesson learned from the past, so there is no way to guarantee whether the butcher's knife from a superior person will fall on his head.

A feeling of panic permeated the rainy night in Tai Chi Palace.

Pei Jiaoran tapped the window frame with his fingers and pursed his lips. This kind of unknown control over everything is really not good.

When I was reading folk tales when I was young, I thought that rebirth would be a sign of strange power and chaos. As mentioned in the book, he was killed by an adulterer in his previous life, and his resentment persisted so much that he was able to live another life. After being reincarnated, relying on his knowledge of future events to avoid danger and take revenge on his enemies was even more despised.

In her opinion, since you are reborn, your choices must be different from before. That also means that things may change in the future, and everything you face is unknown. How can you do everything as you please?

But when it fell on her, she couldn't help but feel envious of the characters in the book.

Unknown means countless variables. Just like in the field of power, there are rarely interlocking plans, and most of them are final decisions. Once there are too many links in the design, it means that if there is a problem in one link, the whole thing may collapse.

The cypress trees outside the public house were blown by the strong wind and looked particularly ferocious.

There was a knock on the "Tuk Tuk" door.

Pei Jiaoran walked to open the door and saw Yuan Yanchong standing at the door anxiously.

"Someone from the Shence Army just took Yao Shiyu away," Yuan Yan said.

"What did Shence Jun say?" Pei Jiaoran asked in a deep voice.

"It was said that someone saw Yao Shiyu walking very close to the Taoist priest from Dajiao Temple. Zhou Guixuan suspected that he had treasonous intentions. How could they place such an unfounded charge on Yao Shiyu's head."

Hearing this, Pei Jiaoran said nothing. When she guessed that Jia Gonglu was going to attack Hu Bu, she also took Yushitai into consideration.

Hibi's vitality was severely damaged, and his people took the opportunity to infiltrate a lot. In terms of review and collection, you can do whatever you want. There is only one Yushitai left with some remaining strength, so it is only a matter of time before their butcher's knife falls on the Yushitai.

"So? Did the Taiwan Master ask you to come? He doesn't have a good solution for this matter. The only thing Yushitai can hope for is that Yao Shiyu refuses to admit it, so that Master Cui will not be implicated. Yushitai The power of Taiwan’s supervisory authorities will not be usurped.”

Pei Jiaoran's tone was quite indifferent, as if he had understood everything.

"But Yao Shiyu is already an old man, what's the benefit of doing such a thing?"

"There is no benefit, it's just a reason. If Yuan Yanchong sacrifices someone, he can get a chance to breathe. Are you willing to sacrifice this person?" Pei Jiaoran stood with his arms folded and looked at him lazily.
