Chapter 242: Deception

Liu Qingshao smiled slightly, "Are you afraid that their self-control is too poor and they will be easily confused by women?" ”

"Hmm!" Since ancient times, Gentle Township has been a hero's mound, and many men have been buried in the hands of women in the end.

Xiao Hanyin's concerns were indeed right.

What's more, those people were all personally trained by the emperor, if they couldn't withstand the temptation of fame, fortune and beauty, Xiao Hanyin would also be suspicious of the emperor.

Liu Qingshao's original idea of using Qinglou to collect news was dispelled in an instant.

Although Qinglou did have the opportunity to find out what those officials had done, they had to wait for the opportunity, and this method was not suitable for them.

So, Liu Qingshao thought of teahouses and restaurants.

These two places are the favorite places of those dignitaries.

In order to help Xiao Hanyin, Liu Qingshao directly prepared to open two restaurants that combined teahouses and restaurants.

The restaurant she opened is divided into two parts, the top is the teahouse, all of which are divided into private rooms, and the privacy is very strong, and the bottom is the restaurant.

This time, she bought two adjacent shops and opened them up, so that the area was much larger.

Liu Qingshao has funds in her hands, and it is not a problem to open two large restaurants.

After Xiao Hanyin learned her thoughts, she was very moved and supported her at the same time.

After all, she can not only help herself by opening a restaurant, but also make money, with Liu Qingshao's ability and talent in business, this restaurant will definitely be successful.

In order to attract the attention of Jinzhou officials, Liu Qingshao deliberately made the restaurant particularly luxurious, and also used her own exclusive trademark.

The restaurant she opened has spread to many places, and many people know who the owner of the shop is when they see the trademark.

Xiao Hanyin felt that she had a plan in her heart, so she had been secretly helping.

At present, he can't let people know the purpose of his coming to Jinju, so the preparation of the restaurant is completely the responsibility of Liu Qingshao and her subordinates.

She gave a lot of silver, and the things were very well prepared, so the restaurant was quickly ready.

Liu Qingshao adopts a model of combining a teahouse and a restaurant, which is refreshing.

No one had ever thought before that the two could be combined.

As soon as Liu Qingshao's restaurant opened, it was liked by everyone.

The dishes in her are the most original, and they taste very good, even if you drink tea in the teahouse upstairs, as long as you are hungry, you can still order the men to go to the back kitchen and tell them to prepare food.

The private room of the teahouse is very quiet and elegant, and the privacy is good, and many people will choose the private room when talking about things.

At the same time, you can also enjoy the dishes in the Liu Qing Peony Restaurant.

Not long after the restaurant opened, business became more and more prosperous.

Liu Qingshao did so much just to lure those officials to her restaurant to talk about things.

In this way, she can help Xiao Hanyin collect information effortlessly.

In the private room of the teahouse, she was all moved, and their conversation, as long as Liu Qingshao and Xiao Hanyin were willing, they could all be heard by standing next door......

Liu Qingshao's design for this restaurant was inspired by some modern TV dramas.

The bridges in many TV series are actually very instructive.

Xiao Hanyin saw that some officials in Jinzhou liked to come to Liu Qingshao's restaurant often to listen to tea, so he deliberately planted a lot of his eyeliner in the restaurant.

With eyes on them, things are much easier......

Since the opening of the restaurant, Xiao Hanyin has been much more relaxed, and he doesn't have to go out often to follow those local officials in Jinju.

Nowadays, those officials will meet directly in the teahouse if they have anything, and then discuss it secretly......

After Liu Qingshao's restaurant was successful, she immediately wrote to the stewards of several other places, asking them to prepare to open such a restaurant according to their own wishes.

Due to Liu Qingshao's whimsy, their intelligence network has become more and more stable.

The emperor and the crown prince learned a lot about the problems of the officials.

This time, Xiao Hanyin also found out a lot of officials who seemed to be law-abiding and thought about the people everywhere, and their true colors in private.

In order to create a good image and make their career go more smoothly, some officials do not hesitate to directly lay out the layout and let the people become their pawns.

It's a pity that Skynet is restored and not leaked, how long can the pretended integrity and strictness last, they still show their true colors after all.

After the emperor got the evidence of the crimes of those officials, he immediately arranged for his henchmen to go over and dispose of them all.

Officials who have different intentions for the imperial court cannot be kept, and at the same time, those officials who can only prey on the common people and deceive their superiors and subordinates cannot be kept.

This time, the emperor made up his mind to get rid of some tumors in the court.

The people are the pillars of the court, they seem to have no status, let alone power, but in fact they are the only ones who can shake the foundation of the court.

After Xiao Hanyin and Liu Qingshao understood the emperor's thoughts, they have been privately looking for evidence of the crimes of those who are unscrupulous.

After a period of time, some courtiers who had done bad things began to feel weak.

They are all masters of disguise, even if they do something in private, they still look loyal to the emperor on the surface.

However, there are some things that have been done that must not be treated as if nothing had happened.

Even if they were willing, would the emperor allow it?

Those courtiers with unclean hands have always been worried that the emperor will find an opportunity to deal with them, so they are very flustered.

It's just that when the emperor goes up and down every day, there is no abnormality at all......

A few days later, the emperor suddenly began to rectify some officials who had made mistakes.

At first, the ministers in the court who harbored ghosts in their hearts were lucky, thinking that the emperor might not be able to find out what they had done.

After all, those things they did, a long time has passed, and all traces have been buried.

If the emperor really wanted to investigate, he would have done it a long time ago, and he would not have waited until now. century

However, in just half a month, the emperor disposed of the four courtiers in the court, and directly made public what they had done.

The emperor's move this time was simply a one-on-one grasp, as if he had been prepared for a long time.

The officials became more and more panicked, and they were afraid that it would be their turn next.

So, they silently gathered together and discussed countermeasures in private.

It was not easy for them to get to this point, and they were not willing to lose everything if they lost everything.

However, this time it was the emperor who made a move, even if they wanted to avoid this catastrophe, the emperor might not be willing to give them a chance......

"What should I do, when the emperor sent me to disaster relief last year, I got a lot of benefits!"

"In that incident last year, none of us were clean!"

"How could the emperor suddenly start to liquidate, who found out those things about the officials who had committed crimes in the past?"

"In the imperial court, there are really dusty hands on your hands, I'm afraid you can't find a few!"

"The one who can find out the evidence of those people's crimes must be very capable, and maybe I will be next!"

"We have been officials in the DPRK for more than ten years, who is capable, how can we not know?"

"No, we seem to have missed someone!"

"Who?"

"Xiao Hanyin!"

……

Several people said his name in unison.

In the imperial court, there are only a handful of people who can have such ability.

Xiao Hanyin is one of them.

In the past, they thought that this matter was strange, but now that they think about it, the emperor should have been planning this matter a long time ago.

The emperor's mind has always been unfathomable, and they can rarely guess it.

"Some time ago, Xiao Hanyin was sent out by the emperor to do something, I think this matter is probably related to him!"

"It's just our guess!"

"Even if we know that it's him, what can we do, it's only a matter of time before we are found out!"

Several of them were in a worse mood.

At this moment, they just wanted to know where Xiao Hanyin was, and whether they would be his next target for investigation......

On the other side, the second prince also guessed his plan from some of the emperor's actions.

He and his henchmen secretly found out that the emperor and the crown prince were privately organizing a secret agency.

The time when Xiao Han went out was about the same as when the emperor dealt with those ministers.

The second prince and his henchmen immediately guessed the connection between these things.

"Your Highness, why don't we send someone directly to find Xiao Hanyin, and then ......" he made a gesture to wipe his neck.

"Do you think Xiao Hanyin is so easy to solve?" The second prince looked at him coldly.

If he was really so easy to deal with, he would have done it in the first place.

Xiao Hanyin and Liu Qingshao are both the prince's people, and killing them is very beneficial to the situation of the second prince.

However, the second prince did not make a move for a long time, all because of scruples......

"Your Royal Highness, are we just watching Xiao Hanyin continue to do things for the emperor outside?" Among these corrupt officials and corrupt officials, they all have more or less something to do with the imperial city.

"Now, Xiao Hanyin is a celebrity next to his father, and his father's trust in him is deeper than that of any courtier!" The second prince's eyes were clear.

"What do you mean?" The other party didn't dare to speculate anymore, so as not to be hit.

"You immediately send someone to investigate Xiao Hanyin's specific whereabouts!" The second prince thought about it carefully and decided to find him first.

As for other things, it's not too late to talk to him later.

"Yes!" The second prince's henchmen didn't know why his master wanted to investigate Xiao Hanyin's whereabouts, but as a secret guard, these things were not something he could ask about.

The second prince's position in the imperial city is quite embarrassing now, if he can't get the throne smoothly, those who follow him will also die together.

He has long had no way out, either fight or die.

Two days later, the second prince's secret guard finally found out the whereabouts of Xiao Hanyin and Liu Qingshao.

After the second prince learned where they were, he wanted to secretly find an opportunity to go over and woo them, and at the same time test why the emperor gave such an important task to Xiao Hanyin.

If his guess is right, then if he wants to ascend to the supreme position, I am afraid that he can only kill him.

How much the emperor values the crown prince, he doesn't know in his heart.

If Xiao Hanyin really found out all the officials who violated the law in the imperial court, the prince's future path would be smoother.

Several of their princes will eventually become the prince's foils.

After fighting for so many years, the second prince was unwilling and couldn't get anything.

Xiao Hanyin played a very important role in this matter, so the second prince wanted to win over again and again.

Even if he finally refused, the second prince could take the opportunity to find out some of the emperor's plans from him.

In any case, he couldn't watch the emperor pave the way for the crown prince.

The prince has had everything since he was born, and because he is not a concubine, he is inferior to him everywhere.

After all these years, he really had enough.
