The rebirth of the evil woman is not easy to mess with

Chapter 197 Punishment, you are really amazing!
Above the main hall, everyone looked at Li Qingmu.

It is no small matter to open an iron mine privately. Maybe there will be a big case, and I am afraid that it will lead to another bloodbath.

While Chen Fangen was angry, he was terrified. He didn't know what Wang Ren had done, but even so, he was suspected of dereliction of duty.

"Master Chen, don't worry, just listen to what he has to say. If you are like this, there will be no silver 300 taels here."

Chen Fangen's opponent, Liang Wenyuan, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, said with a sneer.

These two people, one for the third prince and the other for the prince, both wanted to see each other's misfortune. Although the people on the prince's side didn't like Li Qingmu, why not use him as a spear to target the third prince?

Chen Fangen's face turned livid, he snorted coldly, and stood back again.

"Li Yushi, please continue!"

"Thank you Master Liang!"

Li Qingmu slightly cupped his hands at Liang Wenyuan, and handed over the memorial.

"Your Majesty, I overheard that someone from the Wang family was stationed at Mount Bai'e, so I went to investigate with my wife in the name of spring..."

Li Qingmu began to explain the whole incident in detail.

"...there were more than 50 craftsmen in the cave, but the other party brutally blew up the exit and trapped us all inside. The rocks in the cave rolled down and killed more than a dozen craftsmen. I was bruised in many places! I have offended you!"

As Li Qingmu said, he lifted up his sleeves, and sure enough, there were bruises on his arms one after another, and some places were wrapped with gauze, and blood seeping out could be vaguely seen.

"This... this is simply inhumane!"

An old man in his fifties slowly walked out of the queue, pointed at Li Qingmu's arm and said sadly, then asked the emperor, "Your Majesty, please investigate thoroughly immediately, if it is true, you must be severely punished!"

It was Cui Yuanhe, the deputy prime minister, who was on duty.

This person has an upright personality, hates evil like hatred, and acts fairly. He is the most decent among many courtiers, but he has a bad temper, stubborn, and always contradicts the emperor. Old, but he was only a deputy prime minister, and he was still at the bottom of the list.

Yes, this emperor is so stingy!

Cui Yuanhe is getting old, and he doesn't come out to express opinions on some trivial matters, but this time he saw Li Qingmu's misery, his head was still wrapped in gauze, and thinking of the dozen or so craftsmen who were trapped in the cave or crushed to death, he became angry .

That's more than a dozen lives!
They are courtiers, and the emperor sits on them. The emperor wants to control the entire country. If they don't take human lives seriously, they will be tyrants if they spread the word!

It was rare for Qi Yun to be satisfied with Cui Yuanhe's performance. He waved his hand, and immediately a servant beside him ran out, probably to investigate.

"And then? How did you escape?"

Qi Yun thought this young man was very interesting, so he asked curiously.

"It's good luck. Those craftsmen are familiar with the terrain and took us to a place with a dark river, but the entrance to the dark river was also blocked. The other party wanted to cut off our way of life, but everyone was united and took the stones at the entrance of the cave. Pry it open little by little..."

Li Qingmu said it easily, but everyone knew it was not easy.

Pry those rocks away one by one...

The hall was silent for a moment, and even Chen Fang'en, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple who had called out to clean up Li Qingmu, shut his mouth and returned to the team angrily.

After a long time, Qi Yun slowly said: "Li Qing escaped death, just to thoroughly investigate this matter, I made a note of it! But... can you find out where the other party transported the iron ore?"

"Back to the emperor, the ministers have found out, and General Cao sent someone to keep an eye on it. This matter is arbitrarily asserted by the ministers. I also ask the emperor to come down!"

Although the person who called the general's mansion without authorization is the guard of the mansion, Li Qingmu still pleaded guilty to the emperor. This is his attitude - Your Majesty, I have no intention of being disobedient, it's just a temporary emergency. If you hold grudges, you can punish me!

But these are trivial matters, calling a few guards is not a big deal, Qi Yun waved his hand.

At this time, a man in black floated in like a gust of wind, soundlessly, like a ghost.

Li Qingmu was startled instinctively, but he calmed down immediately, only to find that some officials around him also looked uncomfortable.

This is……

An idea came to Li Qingmu's mind, this is the emperor's secret spy agency, Yulongtai?
Is this someone from Yulongtai?
"Your Majesty, this is true!"

The shadow handed over a letter, then floated away again.

The whole process was silent, only that sentence was said to Qi Yun, as for the group of courtiers in the court hall, the black shadow didn't even look at it.

Crazy!
Li Qingmu bowed his head, and set a personality for Yulongtai in his heart.

Qi Yun opened the letter in his hand, gradually, his eyes became condensed.

"Humph!"

He snorted and threw the letter onto the hall.

"Chen Fangen, look at the good things your subordinates have done!"

"Sir...Sir..."

Chen Fangen panicked, picked up the letter on the ground with trembling hands, then plopped down, knelt down on the ground, kowtowed and cried out: "Your Majesty, my minister... is incompetent in supervision! I am guilty!"

Qi Yun's temperament is that the more you argue, the more he will tease you, so if you make a mistake, you should quickly admit it, otherwise you will be rewarded.

Qi Yun looked at him coldly, and said sharply: "Go home and reflect on yourself, and check the officials under your sect carefully, I don't want to see another Wang Ren again!"

This is a bit heavy to say, but it can be regarded as bypassing him, Chen Fangen hurriedly kowtowed to thank him.

"In addition, Wang Ren opened the mine without permission. He deserves death. If someone comes, go to Wang Ren's house immediately, confiscate his property, push him out of the Meridian Gate, and behead him for public display!"

As soon as these words came out, the people in the court were slightly crowded.

It stands to reason that this kind of matter should be tried by the three divisions. After all, mining may involve conspiracy, but the emperor directly ordered the killing?
Everyone's hearts moved slightly, knowing that the emperor was protecting the third prince.

This matter ends here, and if the investigation continues, the radish will be pulled out and the mud will be brought out, which is out of control.

Liang Wenyuan, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, wanted to ask if it was time for an interrogation, but he exchanged glances with his colleagues next to him, and finally did not ask.

Although the unlucky one was only Dali Temple Prime Minister Wang Ren, but the Dali Temple Shaoqing was also one of them, and he was now being punished by the emperor.

Accept it when you see it!
After this incident, the position of the third prince in the emperor's heart is likely to decline a lot, plus the news from the harem before...

Huh, this seems to be the work of this couple?

Liang Wenyuan didn't think that Li Qingmu was so great before, but now, he felt that he could recommend this person to His Highness the Crown Prince and bring him over.

There was an undercurrent in the hall, and many people were active with similar thoughts, but at this moment, Pang Wen was leaving work.

Holding the wat board, he looked solemn and kept his eyes fixed, but his tone of voice was full of sarcasm: "Li Yushi, you are really amazing!"
