Chapter 167 Cake (2)
Wen Mingtang, who was stopped, turned back to look at Lin Fei.
Lin Fei looked at her and suddenly spoke, asking: "If King Yu falls, your cousin will soon fall into the hands of others without her support. What are your plans?"
Cousin? Wen Mingtang was stunned and was about to speak when Lin Fei reminded her, "That cousin who stabbed you in the back and helped Prince Yu kill you!"
Wen Mingtang: "..."
But for the first time, I discovered that Lin Shaoqing’s uncanny ability was very powerful! He also specifically reminded her that he was stabbing her in the back and trying to kill her cousin. Was it because he was worried that she would forget what Wen Xiutang had done? That's not necessary, she has a very good memory.
"That's her business and has nothing to do with me." Wen Mingtang said, "From the moment she took action on my intentions, she and I no longer had any sisterhood."
The fact that she is still standing here is because she is lucky, not Wen Xiutang's kindness.
But since Lin Fei said this... Wen Mingtang couldn't help but look at the pile of stacked files in Lin Fei's hand: Could it be that this Lin Shaoqing has already found evidence that King Yu committed a crime?
Thinking of Liu Yuan and others who were still dark-eyed at this time, Wen Mingtang felt that it made sense for Lin Fei to be the top.
After Lin Fei ate the two cakes alone with tea, he left Dali Temple and entered the palace.
The next day, I heard that people from the Imperial City's Internal Affairs Department were checking the warehouse and found that many treasures in the warehouse had been replaced with inferior imitations of the genuine ones and stolen out for sale.
The Holy Father became furious and ordered a thorough investigation. As a result of this investigation, many old people from the Department of Internal Affairs were sent to prison. Even those who have left the palace are not immune.
For a time, people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs who were pushed and escorted to jail by officers and soldiers could be seen everywhere on the streets.
Not far away from the Internal Affairs Office, another "old man" who had been in charge of the Internal Affairs Office for many years was pulled out. With his silver hair and feminine face, he looked like a palace official who had been castrated.
"This Eunuch Qi was single-handedly promoted by the last two generations of King Yu. Now he can be said to be the only one in the Internal Affairs Office." Looking at Eunuch Qi who was pulled out, Lin Fei said lightly, "Wen Xuance's daughter is now in our Dali. The temple's public chef was appointed as the head chef, but because of the dispute between the public kitchen and one-third of an acre of land, someone informed this Eunuch Qi, and this Eunuch Qi abused his power and made some mistakes."
"Birds of a feather flock together, and people are divided into groups. What kind of person is King Yu? How good will this Eunuch Qi who was lifted up by one hand be?" Mr. Du who was called to drink tea behind him sighed and looked at the man. The silver-haired Eunuch Qi, who was wearing an internal affairs office robe with two Yin-Yang Taiji fish pendants hanging on his head, paused and couldn't help but added, "If I remember correctly, when the late emperor was here, this Qi It seems that my father-in-law is also one of the father-in-laws who is 'monastic and practicing' with me."
"Back then, the late emperor was eager to seek this way. In order to cater to the late emperor, many palace officials imitated the practice of 'cultivation'. Many palace officials were promoted for their 'excellent cultivation'. This is the case for this one." Lin Fei nodded in affirmation. Mr. Du's words.
The great glory of the heavenly dynasty and the promotion of officials based on "cultivation strength" are really ridiculous.
"There are many stubborn diseases, and the Holy One has the will to eradicate them one by one. It is my great blessing to be able to meet the Ming Lord again." Mr. Du looked at the group of people being escorted away, sighed quietly, paused, and turned He looked at Lin Fei, "How did Lin Shaoqing find out about Prince Yu and Princess An?"
"This matter actually starts with the death of Mrs. Jin," Lin Fei said. "Because of Mrs. Jin's death, we visited Princess Chao'an, and thus met the consort who had long complained about the princess."
Fu Ma is a coward but has long been jealous of Princess Chao'an. After discovering that Princess Chao'an has a different identity, he wants to use the help of Dali Temple to eradicate Princess Chao'an.
"Through the testimony of Prince Consort Fu, we learned that the student named Su had close contacts with Princess Chao'an before his death a few years ago. On the night of his death, he had a dispute with Princess Chao'an." Lin Fei said, "The student named Su , we naturally found Prince Yu again, who had had a dispute with him."
On the day of the Sultan's life and death, he had disputes with both King Yu and Princess Chao'an. From this, King Yu and Princess Chao'an were naturally connected.
"Both of these two have a large amount of money that is missing from their accounts. We also saw something left by the Sultan before his death from the prostitute named Jin Yanxiu. On it were the totems of the Moro sect of the Goguryeo sect, and then "When the incident happened, the Goguryeo envoys were always on a mission to Darong," Lin Fei said, shaking his head, "I don't believe in such a coincidence."
So, could the whereabouts of the money of King Yu and Princess Chaoan be related to the Moro sect that was expelled from Goguryeo?
"The dead Goguryeo envoy was an old man from the envoy group. He came to Daerong several times over the years. If Princess Chao'an was really exchanged, the incident should have happened twenty years ago. What a coincidence, it was also An envoy from Goguryeo came to Dalong to meet him, and the old man who died in the envoy group was meant to be an envoy from Goguryeo." When Lin Fei said this, he paused, shook his head and said, "Of course, these are just guesses. Unable to confirm.”
Master Du nodded, looked at Lin Fei, raised the tea cup in his hand and saluted him from a distance: "Lin Shaoqing is right. After a person dies, naturally he can no longer speak to confirm anything."
Lin Fei said "hmm", glanced at Mr. Du, and spoke again: "The relationship between the Goguryeo envoys is complicated, but the only thing is the same, that is, they all want to use Da Rong to eradicate dissidents. "
When Mr. Du heard this, he squeaked slightly, with a hint of ridicule in his tone: "Sucking the blood of my people in Darong to gain their power, what they have in mind is really too beautiful."
"Of course their thoughts cannot be hidden from your eyes and ears!" After Lin Fei said this, he raised his head and looked at Mr. Du, who had gray hair on his temples. "I heard that five years ago, your Excellency was responsible for entertaining the envoys and had advised the late emperor on the Goguryeo envoys. Some of them are ambitious and have other agendas?"
Mr. Du paused briefly while holding the tea cup and looked at Lin Fei.
Lin Fei held the tea cup in his hand, toasted him with tea, and drank it all in one gulp: "Your Excellency, you are so righteous!"
It's a pity that Gao Yi's ministers met the late emperor who only knew how to practice and ask questions. Lord Du's advice did not get the late emperor's response at first. So, as a last resort, Lord Du admonished him again. In this way, when After the third remonstrance, the late emperor finally summoned him, but...
"The late emperor summoned me, reprimanded me, and replaced me with someone else. He asked me not to interfere with the affairs of the Goguryeo envoys." Mr. Du said, "It is the time for the student exams, and the late emperor did not want me to be troublesome. Then he assigned me to be responsible for arranging the students’ exams.”
Mr. Du took the initiative to say the next words before Lin Fei could speak.
"It was when I was arranging those students that I met the student named Sudansheng," Mr. Du said, putting down the tea cup in his hand, sighing quietly, with a hint of shame on his face, " But I didn’t expect that a good man would die tragically because of this!”
