After two days of careful interrogation, Zhou Yunhai and Jiang Side explained everything they knew about joining forces with Fei Chong to frame the Cao Gang, etc., and then signed and sealed the official rules and completed the confession.

Even though Li Ling had already deduced almost all the hidden information, he was still shocked after knowing the entire plan completely. It can be said that the complexity and huge plan has exceeded the control ability of the people in the martial arts world, even a third-rank governor like Fei Chong could only barely grasp it, so as to reach a tacit understanding with the prince in the capital.

It is precisely because of this huge plan that there are still many loopholes. Whether it is the prince's eagerness to achieve success, he reveals his shortcomings or the many oppositions within the Cao Gang, they all mean that every step they take is on the cliff, and as long as there is a little external interference, they will fail.

Facts have proved this point. Even Mo Li, who is already good at layout, could not completely control everything, and even made the prince fail completely and fall into trouble. It was just because the plan involved too many forces and could not be completely single-minded, which gave Li Ling the opportunity to turn the tables.

After reorganizing all this, Li Ling no longer delayed it and immediately asked Suzhou Prefecture to send troops to send Zhou and Jiang and some of their confidants in the Cao Gang to Xuzhou.

Yes, he did not send the person directly to the capital, but to Xuzhou. Because Li Ling no longer wanted to get involved in this case too much, but relying solely on Suzhou Prefecture was obviously not enough, so he thought of using the power of Deng Wenhan, the current governor of the Huai River, to achieve his goal.

Because he had long heard that Governor Deng and Fei Chong were inconsistent. As Governor Deng and a second-rank official, logically speaking, Deng Wenhan's status should be far higher than that of the third-rank governor, and Fei Chong should be subject to his restraint. However, the civil and military officials of this dynasty have not been subordinate to each other, and even if there are disputes between civil and military officials in the capital, let alone local officials.

In addition, Deng Wenhan has been the governor of the Lianghuai for only two or three years, but Fei Chong has been in the position of the governor of the Lianghuai for more than ten years. In terms of his connections and prestige, he is naturally not comparable to the new governor, and he has to suppress him on weekdays. In this way, the relationship between the two sides is naturally more tense and there are frictions from time to time.

Now, Li Ling gave such a handle against Fei Zhong to Governor Deng, and he naturally would not refuse. Even if he just wanted to kick this mortal enemy out of the officialdom of Lianghuai, he had to do his best, not to mention that there were many personal grudges between the two.

The fact is just as Li Ling expected. After receiving this gift, Governor Deng did not hesitate much. After only asking about some things, he decisively sent his confidants to lead the two soldiers and horses to the capital. And he himself wrote a rumor that was worth ten thousand words. The impeachment fee was all too unbearable and guilty in the local office, which simply described him as a traitor who was so guilty that he was a great traitor who was in trouble with the country and the people. It was really not enough to calm the anger of the people without killing it and to make up the country.

Of course, even without these inflated charges, the crime of Fei Chong colluding with many officials in the capital and some corrupt officials in the border army would be enough to kill him.

Just like smuggling a privately-hidden military crossbow, Fei Chong, as a local official, actually colluded with senior officials in the court and the frontier generals, and was convicted of being a serious crime of ill-treatment.

Before, the court was quite embarrassed about how to set serious fees, because from the evidence he had obtained, he simply framed Li Ling with the flow. This practice is actually not too serious in the Dayue Dynasty. With the acquiescence or even promotion of the current emperor, there are not too many things that the ministers attacked and plotted against each other. Even if they were framed or something, they would not really have to sit back after finding out.

Especially for a third-rank official like Fei Chong who is in a high position, it is even more impossible for him to really put the crime of treason that almost fell on Li Ling's head. Therefore, the general view is to demote him to a higher level and then put him elsewhere to be an official.

But just as the court made up his mind and planned to hold the board high and gently drop it, this bullet stamp and relevant evidence specifically targeting Fei Chongyi's man arrived.

When the seal was blasted, the testimony and witnesses were sent to the Ministry of Justice and then handed over to relevant officials for careful review, Fei Zhong's charge finally turned into a deadly death penalty.

Persecuted the people under the rule, colluded with important officials in the court, and affair with border generals... These charges were combined, which made people feel scared when they saw them, not to mention that they were completely based on evidence and fell on Fei Chong, the Ministry of Justice did not dare to be proficient, so they immediately submitted the relevant books and articles to the palace.

The emperor was furious and immediately summoned the important officials in the court to discuss how to deal with the financial crisis. Even if the financial crisis is in the court, there is actually a backer. At this time, no one dared to speak for him. Even some people who have friendship with him wanted to advocate severe punishment to draw a clear line with him and protect themselves.

In this way, in just two days, the court immediately charged the death penalty with extremely rare efficiency and confiscated all his property. The relatives of the three tribes were sent to the border, and the women were sent to the Jiaofangsi as slaves, which directly pulled out the entire family.

When Fei Chong, who was still in prison, was hoping to get out as soon as possible, he received this final judgment like five thunderstorms and stayed on the spot. After a while, he shouted like crazy: "Your Majesty, I am wronged... I have never had any unjust intentions, I am only loyal to me, Dayue..."

However, the order was issued, and nothing could be changed. All that was waiting for him was death. And the most straightforward and neat killing was not the most difficult and decisive killing, instead of the last few months to see if there was a turning point in the prison.

It was not until his death that Fei Chong heard some details of this from some prisoners, and knew that it was Jiang Side whom he trusted the most. Jiang Side betrayed him because Li Ling was the one whom he led...

In the end, this answer made him the most fear and regret, except for despair and resentment. If he had known that Li Ling was so terrible, he could not only escape from his plan with Ding You, but also launch such a fierce counterattack. He shouldn't have provoked Li Ling at the beginning.

Unfortunately, it is too late to say anything now, everything is a foregone conclusion. No matter how much he calls for justice, his voice cannot reach any senior official in the court, and no one will care about whether he was wronged.

On the last day of May, Fei Chong, the governor of the two Huai Rivers, was executed in public for committing a serious crime of corruption. His body was exposed for three days to serve as a warning. Before that, his relatives in Jingzhou and his hometown were also ordered to be captured by the governments of the two places, and all his property was confiscated.

A third-rank official disappeared...

When many people in Beijing were talking about this, officials who knew more about it were full of fear for Li Ling, who really caused all this.

Even though he was still an official in the court, it was extremely amazing that he could destroy his family in a third-rank official in a place with his fourth-rank official. But now, he could do this with his body as Ding You, without any official position, which seemed even more terrifying.

As a result, there is even an argument in the officialdom of the capital - it is better to offend a gentleman than a villain; it is better to offend a villain than Li Ling!

The fate of the prince and Fei Chong became the best footnote to this sentence. Although Li Ling is no longer in the capital, he is full of his legend in the capital...

When such a legend really came to Li Ling's ears, it was already several months later, and the weather was in autumn.

At this time, he had already returned to Jiangcheng and stayed with his family. At the same time, after many days of construction, his mansion in Jiangcheng was finally completed, and the Li family was able to move into their real home.

After experiencing this storm, the relationship between the family has become closer and closer. Yang Qingxiao and Li Le'er have become much closer, and there is no longer the previous layer of diaphragm.

What surprised Li Ling even more was that Li Moyun finally mustered up the courage to express his love to Li Le'er.

Originally, even with Li Ling's approval and encouragement, he might not have the courage to express his feelings to Li Le'er. However, after experiencing this incident, he was out of sight and felt that since disasters could occur at any time, he should seize those wonderful times and those who deserve love.

When Li Le'er learned the other person's feelings, she was obviously shocked and at a loss. However, with the encouragement of Yue'er, Yang Qingxiao, and even her daughter, she finally tried to accept this man who was quite dull but was sincere to her.

After several months of getting along, the relationship between the two has gradually deepened. In the end, Li Le'er nodded and agreed to marry Li Moyun. However, she also made her own request, that is, this marriage cannot be held grandly, and only a few people in her family gather together, and there is no need to spread it to outsiders. After all, in her heart, she is a remarried widow after all, and she is really not allowed to be on the table.

Seeing that his sister insisted, Li Ling didn't say much, but asked someone to set up an area next to Li's mansion to serve as a separate courtyard for them. Then he gave his sister a large sum of silver as a dowry, which was considered as a marriage.

Soon after, these statements in the capital were passed back. Li Ling, who was wandering in the forest, just smiled at it: "This is actually quite good. If everyone is afraid of me, then I will be able to avoid a lot of trouble whether I am here or return to the court to serve as an official at that time."

Next, there were several months of leisure and no longer being plagued by mundane affairs. Li Ling just stayed at home to accompany his family, and sometimes took his family to visit Hengzhou Prefecture to see the scenery and visit old friends. He was quite free and easy.

After winter begins, he is preparing for the various things about the New Year. In his opinion, he has to stay in Jiangcheng for three years, just to take a long holiday for himself.
