Reborn as a Merchant Girl, the General's Beloved

Chapter 341 Ji Yun and Leaving the Mountain

"As a prince, you control the Jinyiwei, supervise all officials, investigate corruption and enforce discipline. This has already broken the precedent. If you also get in touch with the Shenjiying that guards the capital and pull them into your own camp, won't you be charged with many false charges?" Yu Ran expressed the concerns she had all along.

I always thought Jin Liu was a cynical person, but after marrying him, I found that he is actually an upright person with a pure heart. His heart and eyes are full of hope to do things well and change the status quo.

He didn't even have much of the nervousness and awareness that a prince should have, and seemed to always maintain a cheerful personality towards his elder brother and father. However, he overlooked one very important thing: the emperor is the emperor, and the prince is even more of a prince.

Although he was a prince, he was both a father and son and a monarch and a subject to the emperor. The balance between the two was enough to make one ponder for a lifetime, but he seemed to have never figured it out.

The emperor has always been kind to the Yu family. Her father, the Duke of Weiguo, has a life-and-death friendship with the current emperor. Even so, he is still feared because of the issue of military power. One day, Jin Liu will be like this, but...

Yu Ran was looking at Jin Liu, who was full of confidence and rushing forward, and he really couldn't bring himself to say these words.

Perhaps, for him, passion is enough, and she should handle all the trivialities and troubles behind him.

Jin Liu looked at Yu Ran deeply and said with a smile: "The title of female Zhuge is well deserved."

Yu Ran was stunned, and suddenly realized that she had really underestimated Jin Liu. It was not that he didn't understand these things, but that he didn't care!

Deeply shocked by his momentum, Yu Ran held his hand tightly, her eyes flickering. This time, Jin Liu did not avoid her, but held her hand with a faint smile.

After entering Beijing, Jin Liu led the Jinyiwei directly to start the action, while Hong Ze remained silent after returning to the palace to report.

The Jinyiwei used thundering means and the capital city instantly became a mess.

All officials involved in the case, from the vice ministers and deputy ministers of various ministries to the government offices of various prefectures, were arrested and brought to justice. Among them, many people did not even receive any news and were directly pulled out of their homes.

Unexpectedly, this time, Jin Liu even led people to capture several princes.

However, the Hong family and the youngest daughter's husband's family turned a disaster into a blessing. Hong Ling, who used her dowry to speculate in salt permits, died. It was found out that she was just deceived, so she escaped this catastrophe safely.

All the prisons in the capital were overcrowded, and groups of prisoners could be seen everywhere on the streets. Wherever Feiyufu went, everyone was terrified. For a time, in addition to Hongze with a Qiuran beard, the capital had another dreaded Jade-faced Shura.

Yu Ran's worries finally surfaced at the last minute. The memorial submitted by the Ministry of Personnel revealed that there were more than 3,000 people across the country who were involved in false tax reporting and oppressing the people. Together with their families, there were more than 30,000 people involved in the case.

As soon as the memorial was submitted, the anti-corruption campaign became a hot potato, and the emperor could not sleep for several days and nights. After the crown prince made a preliminary calculation, it was found that more than half of the officials from all over the country and even the six ministries in the capital had been lost, and there was no one available for a while!

This time, Jin Liu was only concerned with arresting people and putting them in jail, and was unaware of anything else. When he caught his breath, he discovered that the prince had fallen ill because of this incident.

He hurried to the East Palace to visit his elder brother, but met Ji Yun and the old gentleman on the way. Huaizhu was supporting him as they strolled in the garden.

When Jin Liu was young, he was taught at Xianyuntai. Mr. Ji Yunhe was also his mentor, so he stepped forward and saluted with great respect.

Ji Yunhe seemed a little dazed. He looked at him for a long time but still couldn't recognize him. Huaizhu had to remind him before he smiled and said, "Our Yunzhi has grown up! If I saw him somewhere else, I wouldn't be able to recognize him!"
