Villain, be good! I'm here to give birth to a baby [Quick Wear]

The Xia Dynasty has been established for a thousand years. The relationships between officials in the court are complicated, and there are many cases where one move can affect the entire body. Moreover, everything should be done in moderation, and there is a secret balance.

Yang Li asked himself that even if he held such a high position, he would not dare to dismiss a person from his official position at will. He had to have both evidence and understanding of human relations.

If you cross the line and are discovered, just knock it down.

As long as it is not too excessive, there is no need to condemn it all. Just like the disaster relief funds sent to Yezhou, even though the law clearly states that anyone found embezzling such money will be sentenced to death, there are still people who dare to tamper with it.

Generally speaking, the officials who can be investigated are not those who are the most corrupt behind the scenes, but rather the small officials with little power. In the end, all the stolen money found is attributed to these people.

Yang Li's guesses about certain people are just guesses. Habitual "thieves" are the hardest to catch, and not easy to catch, so he can only leave them alone and continue to greet them with a smile.

But Li Li was different. He was young and energetic, and he was in the prime of his life. He actually had feelings for those old ministers. Although he did not show it openly, his intention to make moves in secret had been exposed.

A new official should have the awareness of a new official and should not have any inappropriate thoughts.

……

"Those people wanted to put him to death. The crime they charged him with wouldn't kill him, but it was enough to get him banished to a remote place..."

"It's just that Li Li is not a smooth person. He should have pretended not to have seen some things even though he saw them. He really went to dig deep into the matter, thinking that His Majesty knew nothing. In fact, His Majesty knew everything in his heart, and some people were favored by him..."

Li Li had touched his reverse scale without realizing it.

"Later, he was poisoned and became mute, and could no longer speak. This was a warning from those people, but he was still stubborn and could not accept the fate of being demoted. He even dared to secretly petition the emperor to thoroughly investigate those old ministers."

Yang Li had no choice. Instead of letting him do stupid things because he could not accept the demotion, it would be better to ask the emperor to execute him directly. He would do it and save his life.

"I know he can't accept this outcome. He studied hard for many years, but ended up being demoted because he offended the powerful. He was dissatisfied and wanted to rebel. This is not a wise move."

"I could only lock him up to cure his muteness, but he was not very cooperative. He made a scene a few times before finally accepting the fact. But he was always depressed... It was only recently that he started to get better and is not as depressed as before."

"As for the concubine before, I arranged for her to leave the palace to recuperate. You don't have to think too much about it."

However, Lin Qingyan was writing on Yang Li's palm.

She wanted to know why Yang Li had quarreled with Li Li just now and made him angry and leave.

Yang Li thought for a moment before saying, "No, you think too much. He should leave once his muteness is cured. It would be a waste of food if he stays here."

Seeing that this man was still quibbling, Lin Qingyan got a little angry and struggled to get out of Yang Li's arms, forcing Yang Li to hold her tightly.

"I was wrong, don't leave."

"I felt it was inappropriate for him to stay here, so I asked him to leave first. If he continues to stay, he might be a burden to me."

After hearing this, Lin Qingyan stopped moving around. She had another question to ask.

【Will you do this to me? 】

Lin Qingyan felt that with Yang Li's personality, if something happened, he would definitely push her away.

Yang Li didn't answer the question.

He hugged Lin Qingyan tightly with his arms, pursed his lips and said nothing.

So Lin Qingyan asked again.

[Can you do it or not? ]

For this reason, she wrote it several times on Yang Li's palm, fearing that he might not understand what she meant.

Yang Li still just held her and refused to let go. After a long while, he slowly said, "Yan'er, it would be better if you were a little dumber."

Hear this.

Lin Qingyan also understood what he meant.

If that day really comes, he will choose to push himself away.

But Lin Qingyan had seen his true side, and it was impossible for her to be driven away by him with just a few words. She wanted to help him prove his innocence so that she could save him.

However, at this moment she heard what Yang Li said.

"Yan'er, I know you are doing this for my own good."

"But I don't need this kind of kindness. Rather than being nice to me, I hope you can spend more time on yourself."

Lin Qingyan lowered her eyes. She didn’t want it. She wanted Yang Li to live well too.

Yang Li seemed to know what Lin Qingyan was thinking and continued, "Yan'er, don't do anything stupid."

"I was destined to be abandoned when I was born. I don't blame the Yang family. Everything I did was my own will. No matter what the consequences are, I will bear them alone. But you are different... I don't want you to suffer any grievances with me."

"I can get dirty, but you can't."

Lin Qingyan felt uncomfortable, a kind of helpless discomfort.

She really wanted to save him.

Why reject her?

Tears fell and landed on Yang Li's wrist.

Yang Li raised his head as if he had sensed something and asked, "Are you crying?"

He can't see anything.

But when he asked this, Lin Qingyan cried even harder.

She nestled in Yang Li's arms, and after enduring for a long time, she finally couldn't suppress her emotions and let out a few whimpering sounds.

"..."

It was intermittent and the pronunciation was not standard. I could only feel that the sound sounded very sad.

Yang Li knew that she was in great pain, otherwise she wouldn't cry out loud. Normally, she just cried silently, without a sound.

He stroked Lin Qingyan's hair and said, "You love to cry so much. It won't be good if your children learn from you in the future."

"A eunuch like me is not worth your attention, nor is it worth your tears, so...if one day I am sentenced to death, please do not save me, and do not try to prove my innocence to others."

"because……"

Yang Li placed his hand gently on Lin Qingyan's head, opened his lips slightly, and spoke in a light voice.

"I am innocent, but the Yang family is dirty."

Dirty water doesn't disappear, it just moves from one place to another.

Just like everything has right and wrong, once it is proven that he is right, then the opposite of him is wrong.

Lin Qingyan understood what he meant and clutched his sleeves.

If I clear Yang Li's name, it won't just be the Yang family that will be tainted. The Yang family will be pushed to the forefront...

No one can escape the gossips of the world, especially the Yang family, which has always presented itself as the "white crane". It will become the target of public criticism and be drowned in spit.

"So Yan'er, please respect my decision, okay?"

Yang Li knew that she must have some evidence hidden in her hands that he hadn't discovered, and he didn't want to force her to hand it over, so he could only inform her in this way, hoping that she would not act impulsively for his sake.

He is willing to pay the price for all the "crimes" he has committed.

Lin Qingyan neither agreed nor refused.

She just cried, and her tears wet the fabric on Yang Li's chest.

[But I don't want to just watch you die. ]

[If everything is doomed to be irreversible, then what is the meaning of my rebirth to find you? What are my actions? Is it meaningless? ]

[Or is it to watch you walk towards death step by step? ]

Lin Qingyan wanted to shout and scream.

Her broken voice couldn't even utter a normal word, and she could only let out a silent cry in her heart.

[I don't want it! I don't accept this result! ]
