Chapter 72 Righteous Extermination
He was talking about something in his mouth in a low voice, as if he thought she was very good.
"What a killing of relatives for justice. At this time, I heard some news. I still have to investigate the conclusive evidence. But in time, I will definitely be able to reveal the truth to the world." The emperor said sternly.
Liu Qingyan had long known that Lu Guozheng was corrupt and abused the law and killed his wife. He ignored his own daughter's life and death and pushed Lu Huaixiang into the fire pit again and again, and finally frozen her to death.
All of this is just a small part of Lu Huaixiang's memory. Are you not aware of the things you don't know? I still don't know how much Lu Guozheng did, and whether the Liu family's extermination case was related to Lu Guozheng. These are all things that Liu Qingyan wanted to figure out.
"Emperor, as the prefect of the capital, since such a thing happened to the court minister, I am willing to do my best to investigate the matter clearly." Liu Qingyan looked at the emperor and said.
"Lu Aiqing means you want the right to investigate at this time?" The emperor asked in a low voice as he looked at Liu Qingyan.
"It's true,..." Before Liu Qingyan could finish her words, she was interrupted by Song Jingchen present.
He looked at the emperor and said, "There may be something wrong with this matter, so I hope the emperor will think twice."
The emperor turned around and looked at Song Jingchen, "Song Aiqing said whatever he said, "What's wrong with it?"
"Lord Lu and Lu Guozheng are close relatives of father and daughter. If she was asked to investigate this matter, she would probably have preconceived ideas and it was not known that she favored Lu Guozheng." Although Song Jingchen knew that the relationship between Liu Qingyan and Lu Guozheng was average, he still said so.
Since Song Jingchen said this, he naturally had his intention. After observing Liu Qingyan for many days, he found that Liu Qingyan was a meticulous person, and there seemed to be some ulterior motives between him and Lu Guozheng.
Song Jingchen said that words to the emperor just now were completely arousing Liu Qingyan, so that she could get out all the secrets that Lu Guozheng could not tell others.
When she heard Song Jingchen tell the emperor this, Liu Qingyan was indeed trapped. She glanced at Song Jingchen and continued, "Mr. Song is too arbitrary. I, Lu Huaixiang, only do things for the people of the world. Even if my father is corrupt and abused the law, he will not escape the sanctions of the law."
"I wonder if Lord Lu can issue a military order. Originally, Lu Guozheng had committed a crime, so you should not know these things. The emperor wisely would like to bring you into the palace and tell you this." Song Jingchen continued.
Song Jingchen's words put Liu Qingyan in a very passive situation, and nothing she said seemed to be appropriate.
After hearing what Song Jingchen said, Lu Siguan stood up, "Your Majesty, the matter of Lord Lu Guozheng is not a trivial matter. For this period of time, all the important officials of the court... are now in danger in the court."
"What Lord Lu said is that you don't need to investigate Lu Guozheng's affairs? Let the emperor turn a blind eye?" Song Jingchen said with a smile. It was obvious that the emperor had to issue an order to thoroughly investigate the matter before he could give up.
"Don't argue." The emperor said loudly, and the imperial study room finally calmed down.
During the period when Song Jingchen and Lu Siguan were arguing, several other ministers also whispered, but Liu Qingyan stood quietly aside without saying anything. She knew that the emperor had his own arrangements.
"I believe Lord Lu, she will be held responsible for this matter, but I restrict you from a one-month period. This matter must be investigated within one month. As for Lu Guozheng's crime, I will eventually punish him in public in the court based on the evidence you investigated." The emperor said loudly.
But Lu Siguan knew what it meant once Liu Qingyan took over this Shangfang sword.
With the Sword of Shangfang, Liu Qingyan had the power to investigate all the officials in the capital, especially in the investigation of the Lu Guozheng case, no one dared to stop it.
But Lu Guozheng has always been famous for his official career, for his relationships and back doors. There are very few opportunities for officials who have no exchanges between Lu Guozheng in the huge capital.
After all, Lu Guozheng had always been under Lord Du's command. With the help of the Du family, officials in the capital dared not not to buy Lu Guozheng's accounts, so almost all officials in the capital had contacts with Lu Guozheng.
Whether it is killing people and robbing people, excluding dissidents, accepting bribes, or harming loyal and kind... many of these officials have also been done with Lu Guozheng.
Now Liu Qingyan wants to investigate the Lu Guozheng case, but it is easy to investigate Lu Guozheng colluding with local county magistrates and forcibly occupying fertile land in farmers.
But Liu Qingyan had already wanted to find an opportunity to tear a hole in the darkness of the capital. If so, she would become the common enemy of everyone in the capital.
Just one Lu Guozheng is already difficult enough, and suddenly there are so many little ghosts. The result is terrifying, you can imagine how terrifying it is.
Liu Qingyan has a sense of hatred and passion, but these things can not be accomplished just by your sense of passion.
Since Liu Qingyan took over the Shangfang Sword from the emperor, the nature of this matter has undergone reforms, and the first people who discovered this were Song Jingchen and Lu Siguan.
The other officials present looked at each other when they saw this scene, not knowing what to say.
Liu Qingyan looked at the Shangfang sword in her hand, as if she had seen hope to clear her father's grievances. She was very excited. At this time, she didn't know that what happened next was far from what she could bear.
After the emperor arranged this matter, he asked everyone to retreat.
Liu Qingyan took the Shangfang sword and left the imperial study first. Lu Si watched Liu Qingyan go out and followed her.
He watched her play Shangfang's sword from afar, and could feel her cheers from the pace of walking.
Lu Siguan quickly walked to Liu Qingyan and whispered, "Do you know what you are holding?"
After all, it was in the palace. Song Jingchen and several ministers were still behind him. Lu Siguan knew that he could not be too close to Liu Qingyan, so he tried to keep a certain distance from Liu Qingyan.
Liu Qingyan turned her head, stared at Lu Siguan with wide eyes, and smiled, "You will see mine from now on."
After saying that, Liu Qingyan quickly left, leaving Lu Siguan alone sighed, "From now on, the capital has become a place of right and wrong. You think too simple, and I have no good life."
...
Du Yuyan was put into the coffin and placed in the lobby of Qin Mansion. It lasted for seven days. Qin Muyu asked all those who came to attend the funeral to pay tribute to Du Yuyan's remains, and finally buried the coffin and buried Du Yuyan.
