Chapter 126: Purging Corrupt Officials
Zhong Chuyue and Suo Ye looked in the direction where the dried fish was thrown, and found that Li Qingqing and Gongsun Fu were present.
The two of them were slightly surprised and saluted, "Your Majesty! ”
Li Qingqing raised his hand, "Get up, I have something to say to you." ”
Zhong Chuyue was stunned, Suo Ye was also stunned, neither of them understood what Li Qingqing had to say to them, and they were together.
Li Qingqing didn't say it directly, turned around and took a step first, and Gongsun Fu followed from the side.
Zhong Chuyue and Suo Ye followed, and the two glanced at each other, both of them had doubts in their eyes, wondering what Li Qingqing was going to say to them.
Li Qingqing took them to the Ashes Eater Inn.
This inn was almost lost because of Li Qingqing's exile before, but in the end it was retained by the first emperor, but there was no business, and the tables and chairs in the house were still complete.
At this moment, the house has been cleaned, the shop is open, and business is going on as usual.
Li Qingqing led them in through the back door, and in order not to affect the diners' eating, they all came in in civilian clothes.
Li Qingqing led them to the wing, and after closing the door, she said her purpose.
"In the court, there are still many ministers left by the crown princess. When the palace was bombed, the ledger was burned, but it couldn't burn the evil deeds of these people.
I have heard that many of these ministers are from Beixing. I am afraid that a large-scale eradication will allow Beixing to take action in the dark pavilion of Daqi. So Zhong Tingwei needs to help secretly. ”
Zhong Chuyue understood that she had always been fair and loyal, and she was naturally dissatisfied with these ministers, and now that Li Qingqing asked her to deal with this matter, she would naturally do her best.
However, she was very curious, what does this have to do with Suo Ye, and why His Majesty still called him along.
Zhong Chuyue glanced at him, Suo Ye just turned his head, the two looked at each other, Suo Ye smiled treacherously, Zhong Chuyue glanced at him with disgust.
Suo Yewu was happy.
Li Qingqing couldn't help but laugh when she saw it, "I have forgiven your sins today, do you have to do something for me?" ”
Li Qingqing looked at Suo Ye.
Suo Ye originally admired the extremely smart Li Qingqing, and now that the woman he admired asked for him, he was naturally happy to agree.
"Your Majesty just speak."
Li Qingqing said, "I heard that you are the person of Emperor Huan's brother. Okay, I now order you to go back to the Kite Kingdom and pick up Brother Huanhuang. Also, help me find Mr. Wei Li and Ji Chengwen. ”
"This ...... It's a bit difficult, I'm afraid. Suo Ye thought about it and said.
The corners of Li Qingqing's mouth hooked, "Then go back to your prison." ”
Suo Ye immediately changed his face, "If you have difficulties, you have to deal with your majesty." ”
Li Qingqing was very satisfied, so she asked him to step back, and she had to tell Zhong Chuyue alone next.
When Suo Ye stood up, he saw that Zhong Chuyue was still sitting, and he couldn't help but want to listen to it, but he was scolded back by Zhong Chuyue's eyes.
Suo Ye had no choice but to stand up and walk out and wait outside.
Here, Gongsun Fu also stood up and went outside to wait.
Li Qingqing glanced at the figure of Suo Ye outside, and then at Zhong Chuyue, and smiled meaningfully, "You like him?" ”
Zhong Chuyue was frightened by her confession, and didn't know what to say for a while, but she didn't deny it.
Li Qingqing knew that this was the case, "If you are really fated, I will give you a marriage." But now, you're about to face a big conspiracy.
In this conspiracy, I hope you'd better not tell him. ”
"Does Your Majesty trust him?"
"Hmm!" Li Qingqing nodded, "After all, he is from the Kite Country, and he is flamboyant, often out of tune, it's hard to believe." ”
Zhong Chuyue wanted to refute, but when the words came to her mouth, she swallowed it again, thinking why she wanted to explain it for him, so she didn't say it.
The two of them were silent for a while, and finally Li Qingqing asked her to retreat, and she went out.
After going out, Zhong Chuyue's whole body was wilted, and Suo Ye wanted to ask her what happened, but she didn't say a word.
The two of them asked one after the other and didn't say anything, quarreled again, and then left the inn noisily.
Gongsun Fu then walked in and sat down beside Li Qingqing.
"What's the matter, you're still preoccupied?"
Li Qingqing nodded, "There are several tough battles next, and I feel physically and mentally exhausted before I fight, do you think I'm old?" ”
Gongsun Fu didn't know what to say, he just put his arm around her shoulders and was silent.
Li Qingqing suddenly sighed, "Am I wrong?" I squeezed up desperately before I was the empress, and now I suddenly don't want it anymore when I become the empress, am I wrong? ”
Gongsun Fu hugged her shoulders tightly, "If you don't want to be too tired, then divide all the power and promote a few henchmen to solve problems for you." ”
Li Qingqing smiled bitterly, what she wants is not a confidant, what she wants is not to be the empress, of course, this is impossible.
She also knew that Gongsun Fu knew that it was impossible, so she didn't mention it.
Perhaps, this is fate, giving you the highest right will naturally give you the most tired words.
Li Qingqing didn't speak again, and the two hugged each other tightly, as if after this night, they would have countless possibilities to separate.
At this time, Zhong Chuyue has begun to thoroughly investigate corrupt officials.
Due to the large number of corrupt officials and the fear that they would join forces with the Shadow Pavilion, Zhong Chuyue was always cautious when conducting thorough investigations, and it was inevitable that he would be hindered by others.
Those corrupt officials have actually been worried about Qingqing since he ascended the throne, and he has long had an idea.
Some corrupt officials began to take refuge in Prime Minister Liu Qingfang.
Because Liu Qingfang was on the verge of neutrality in the imperial court, he was not too close to Li Qingqing, but he did not oppose Li Qingqing.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the two fought very hard before the early years, and Li Qingqing didn't do it, she just couldn't catch the evidence and couldn't come up with the means, so she kept it. And if Liu Qingfang wants to continue to survive in the court, he must establish a wider network of contacts, and he must be intertwined, so many people have made up their minds to join Liu Qingfang.
In the middle of the night, the Prime Minister's Mansion was very lively.
The ministers from all walks of life sat in the Prime Minister's Mansion with tense expressions, "Prime Minister, do you see that there is a statement on this matter?" ”
Prime Minister Liu Qingfang lowered his head and supported his forehead, his mood was extremely complicated.
Her current situation is not that she doesn't need help, but these goods are really embarrassing and useful, if she can't do it, Li Qingqing will track down the order, and they will be the first to finish, if you get too close to them, you will only affect yourself, and you will only die faster.
But Liu Qingfang really needs people now, so he didn't express his position directly, but made a trade-off in his heart.
But the ministers were in a hurry, and there was a faint sense of uneasiness that someone had already begun to investigate.
Therefore, it is inevitable that I will be in a hurry again, "Prime Minister!" ”
"That's it!" Liu Qingfang was also a little impatient, "Everyone, I forgive Liu for not being able to help." ”
She struggled a bit, and finally decided to abandon the idiots.
These people have no choice, and they want to hold on a little longer, Liu Qingfang has already decided to send off guests. Unwilling to implicate herself, she asked the housekeeper to lead people to the back door, send them out through the back door, and let people guard them halfway, just in case.
