Chapter 530: Arranged Clearly
at the same time.
The news also immediately reached Changsun Bubai's mansion.
"Dad, it seems that this time, the emperor finally made up his mind to decide the prince!"
Changsun Yichun spoke excitedly and said, "At that time, the child will definitely assist Huan'er and let him ascend to the Great Treasure as soon as possible!"
Hearing this, Changsun Bubai glanced at him indifferently and said, "Do you assist him?"
Changsun Yichun was stunned for a moment and said, "Yes, Huan'er will definitely take me as his teacher..." But he suddenly discovered the true meaning of Changsun Bubai's words, and couldn't help but say, "Father, what do you mean is...are you going out of the mountain?"
If my father came out of the mountain, that would be better. Who else is his father's opponent in the court?
Except Li Wen! "Damn it!"
Changsun Bubai shouted coldly, saying, "Of course I won't come out, and you can't become his grand tutor!"
Hearing this, Changsun Yichun was stunned and said, "Father, what you mean..." Changsun Bubai said word by word, "With the time left, you have to do two things!"
"The first thing is to send a letter to Lin Jianshen, who is far away in Yangzhou, seek his opinion, and ask him to accept Liu Huan as his disciple!"
"Second, go and visit Wen Wuxian, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, immediately and show him his attitude of hoping that he will become the Grand Tutor..." "These two are the only two candidates!"
Changsun Bubai's words were an order, an unquestionable order! Changsun Yichun was full of doubts, why wasn't he himself... He didn't understand... but he didn't dare to ask questions, and could only say: "Okay, let's do it now..."... Right Prime Minister's Mansion.
"Teacher, what the emperor means now is that he is going to start to decide the crown prince. There will be another storm in Xijing..." Chen Jiming spoke worriedly and said, "Teacher, don't we just sit still?"
Emperor Jianye has sounded the trumpet, and all officials must stand. If you want to keep yourself safe and not participate in it, you must prepare to lose power after the Qiankun Cauldron is established! You can not take sides, but after the winner wins, you will definitely not think about giving you a sip of soup! Only those who participate in the fight are qualified to share the fruits.
But Li Wen just said lightly: "Why do you need to participate?"
"This competition no longer belongs to me."
"Once the emperor and the minister, I will be loyal to Your Majesty in my life. As for the subsequent matters... let the future generations take care of it."
He seemed to take everything lightly.
"Teacher, what changes do you think will happen in the situation in North Korea?
Who will the three princes choose as their tutors?"
Chen Jiming continued to ask a question.
Li Wen smiled and said, "Isn't this an obvious thing?
Liu Huan chose Wen Wuxian, Liu Wu chose Huang Chengye, as for Liu Jing?
Maybe he can't choose anyone."
Upon hearing this, Chen Jiming's face slightly sternly and said, "In this way, shouldn't the winner of this competition be Liu Huan?"
Li Wen shook his head, his eyes seemed to have a light that pierced everything, and said, "Three parties compete for the deer, but in my opinion, there is only one person who really decides the deer's belonging."
Chen Jiming said: "Who?"
"Sir, Minister of Justice, Li Fan."
Upon hearing this, Chen Jiming was shocked, Li Fan?
"Although Li Fan is very powerful now, he is just a minister after all..." He couldn't help but murmur.
"Don't forget that he is the chief of the Hanlin Academy and the censor holding the sword of the emperor. The most important thing is that he now represents the emperor-" Li Wen smiled and said, "In addition to authority, he is also the only person in the court who can suppress Changsun Bubai in terms of wisdom - haha, hahaha!"
He laughed loudly.
Chen Jiming felt even more unsatisfied. In terms of wisdom, he was invincible to defeat Changsun?
What a wolf-like evaluation!... Li's Mansion.
When the eunuch in the palace told him what Emperor Jianye meant, he was also stunned.
Three princes and one princess, and he must choose one of the four to be his apprentice?
...Jianye Emperor... is simply too much! Jianye Emperor said it nicely and gave himself four choices, but in fact, there is only one who can choose and dare to choose.
That is Princess Anyang.
——After all, Li Fan was tested by Emperor Jianye last time, and Emperor Jianye’s meaning was already very clear.
He did not want Li Fan to participate in the imperial power struggle.
A knife can only be a knife.
So, to put it nicely, give four choices, isn’t this forcing Li Fan to be the Grand Tutor of Anyang Palace?
When facing Emperor Jianye, Li Fan often feels like he is being plotted.
From beginning to end, it was arranged clearly.
"Do you have to force me to go on this road?"
He thought about it, but sighed.
This is also impossible.
But he didn't think too much, Jiang Dacai had arrived.
"Sir," Jiang Dacai reported, "According to your arrangement, we have been checking Liu Jing for several days. This is the basic situation collected so far."
"The information is too critical, not found yet."
He handed Li Fan a sealed letter.
Li Fan opened it.
"Liu Jing was born in July of the sixth year of Jianye. His biological mother was Hujileimma.
Linma was born in the Anda tribe of the Hu people and was a small tribe on the grassland."
"After entering the palace and having children, Linma was very favored.
In the 13th year of Jianye, when Liu Jing was seven years old, Lianma died of weak and sickly and had no medical treatment for medicine."
"After Lianma's death, Liu Jing was quite neglected by the palace, and his growth trajectory was nothing special."
"Youcao: After investigation, Youcao, a descendant of the Gao family, was found by Liu Jing when he was seven years old. On the way, Liu Jing cherished his pity for his weakness, so he kept it by his side and gave it the name Youcao."
Short message.
Li Fan glanced over with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
He gently buckled the table with his finger and said, "If I remember correctly, in the fifth year of Jianye, General Wu Tiangu was defeated like a mountain. When the Hu people won a great victory, the court had to negotiate peace with the Hu people."
"After mediating Li Wen, and Emperor Jianye accepted the condition that the Hu people had to win a Hu girl, he signed the 'March Alliance' with the Hu people in March of the following year after Narenma became a concubine in the winter of the fifth year of Jianye!"
"When did Linma enter the palace?"
Li Fan asked.
Jiang Dacai said without hesitation: "The fifth year of Jianye, October!"
He followed Wu Tiangu personally and remembered those things vividly, so he would never remember them wrong.
Li Fan's heart was shocked, "In other words, Linma entered the palace in October of the fifth year of Jianye, and gave birth to Liu Jing in July of the sixth year of Jianye..." Jiang Dacai nodded and said, "Yes."
Li Fan thought in his heart, how could Liu Jing be a premature baby?
An absurd thought flashed through his mind: Could it be that Liu Jianyexi is a father?
But this idea disappeared immediately, and he felt it was ridiculous. It was impossible. Not to mention that the Hu people dared not fool a great emperor. If she had become pregnant before Liu Jianye took Linmana as his concubine, she would never be a virgin. Liu Jianye was not a small virgin at that time, and he could not make such a low-level mistake... What's more, although Liu Jing's appearance had a more wild look like the Hu people, it was still very similar to Liu Jianye. You can tell at a glance that it should be Liu Jianye's biological child.
It must be because he was too concerned... "However, there is something strange about this," Li Fan raised his eyes and said, "Liu Jing's mother just died, and he met the descendants of the Gao family?"
"The Youcao at that time was only eight or nine years old, right?
Does such a little girl know that she is a descendant of the Gao family?”
"If I knew that at such a young age, she would definitely not be able to hide it from Liu Jing, and Liu Jing would definitely know."
"If she didn't know her identity at first, who suddenly told her over the years?"
Li Fan made two assumptions, but both assumptions seem to point in one direction.
"There must be someone behind Youcao, and this person's target must be Liu Jing."
"I want to check the list of all the people who have entered and exited Jinghe Hall for a month."
"Also, keep an eye on it, keep an eye on it, keep an eye on it!"
Li Fan had already smelled the location of the black hand. Now it was time to approach him quietly and then catch him out.
...Time flies.
On the next day, Xijing caused a sensation.
Because today, sixteen criminals will be taken to the execution ground and executed! ——Seventeen were originally, but because the Minister of Personnel Gong Juren died suddenly in prison, only sixteen were left.
The people went to watch it one after another.
This is the largest case in Xijing in several years, and the most people involved! Li Fan personally attended the scene to be executed! The sun has gradually moved to the middle, and under the execution ground, countless onlookers were talking about it! "A group of borers, I said, why are our Great Xi Empire full of pustules party and government? It turns out that these beasts are all about money for promoting officials!"
"Selling official positions and titles, what kind of good officials can be chosen! Our life is mostly because of them!"
"Not forgiven! It should be killed, it's good to kill!"
The people spoke one after another! Over the years, the administration of the Daxi Empire has been in a slow deterioration, and the people have long been full of complaints. Now that the case has been announced to the world, people are even more furious when they learn that these people are committing favoritism and fraud.
"I want to give Sun Lichen of Jizhou Criminal Prison Department a bowl of salt!"
Among the crowd, an old man was tremblingly holding a bowl of salt. He burst into tears and said, "My son died in his hands because he offended the Jizhou clan. Today, I can see him dead! My son has a spirit in heaven, so he can rest in peace!"
He shouted excitedly! "I am a villager from Shagou Village, Yong'an County. Our whole village gave Han Yuande, the Minister of Justice, a basin of salt!"
A young man held a basin of salt before the execution platform. He looked at Han Yuande who was kneeling on the execution platform, and his eyes were almost blowing fire, and he said happily: "Han Yuande, you beast! People from the Chen family in Yong'an County killed dozens of people from our village and raped my sister. Don't you indulge in it, but you also captured our brothers and sisters... Today, I will watch you being lingchi with my own eyes, and I will take your meat to feed the dog!"
"Give it a gift of salt Lingchi!"
"Give it a gift of salt Lingchi!"
...Countless people roared in unison! Han Yuande, Meng Qingyuan and others were already full of feces and urine, and they were so scared that no one was afraid! "No!"
Chapter completed!
