Liu Zhong led a group of officials through the streets and alleys, and finally breathed a sigh of relief after posting the last notice.

"Wang Tou, this is the last one."

The four servants under him looked at Liu Zhong expectantly with sad faces.

Liu Zhong nodded. "Well, the last one."

A whole day. From seven o'clock in the morning to four o'clock in the afternoon, the five of them did not dare to stop for a minute, and more than 200 notices were finally posted.

His servants breathed a sigh of relief. "Great."

"Okay? What's so good? Liu Zhong glared at the servant. The south city has been posted, and the north city will have to be posted tomorrow. ”

"Huh?" The servant opened his mouth wide. "Isn't Beicheng assigned to Sun Tou?"

Hearing Sun Lei's name, Liu Zhong immediately pulled his face down. Since Sun Lei was promoted to the head of the team, Li You assigned the northern district to him. The wharf is in Beicheng, and Beicheng is also concentrated in the place with the most oil and water in Shengtang County, since it was allocated to Sun Lei, Liu Zhong's income has been directly discounted.

"He's been sent to the village." Liu Zhong shouted at his subordinates. "Why, why don't I send you over?"

The servant hurriedly shook his head. "Don't, don't."

"I said Liu Tou, what's wrong with our master, isn't it just to go up to the court to ask about the case, do you have to make the whole world know?"

Liu Zhong looked at the notice posted on the city wall, and shook his head for unknown reasons.

Four days later, Li You will openly try the case of the Miao family's death and three deaths. Recently, although Li You has not been working in the yamen, how can there be an impermeable wall in the world, especially such a strong wind.

Liu Zhong knew that the Miao family's case was just a cover, and in fact, what he wanted to try was the case of the Linghu family's trafficking of illicit salt.

Linghu family!

One of the most powerful families at the moment!

Although Liu Zhong is not Li You's henchman, after all, he married the maid of Li You's family, and others have long regarded him as Li You's subordinate. Now that Li You is an enemy of the Linghu family, it is equivalent to himself being an enemy of the Linghu family. If he succeeds in bringing down the Linghu family, he may be safe and sound, but if he can't be defeated, his life will not be easy.

Thinking of this, Liu Zhong looked at the notice on the wall again, and couldn't help but sigh again.

Lord Li, Lord Li, why are you so troubled?

………

"Lord Tian, look at this."

Tian Lingzi took the notice handed over by Ling Huzhu, and after quickly scanning it, he immediately frowned. "This Li You, what is he going to do!"

"Such notices have been pasted all over the county seat of Shengtang County." Ling Hu continued to add. "Even the surrounding villages have sent people to post them."

After Tian Lingzi heard this, he finally became a little angry. "This Li You is really worry-free."

Tian Lingzi originally planned to inform Li You of the stakes in private, implying that the emperor was involved behind it. He expected that in this way, Li You would definitely not dare to try the case with great fanfare, and the errand assigned by the emperor would be completed.

However, a sudden illness disrupted all his plans. Now when he wants to plan again, Li You has already issued a notice, and his plan to resolve it privately has failed.

Ling Hulu looked at Tian Lingzi and saw that although he was greatly displeased, he was not very angry, so he understood that Tian Lingzi had not yet seen through the fundamental purpose of Li You's hand. "Lord Tian, I was only a little suspicious of your illness, but now I can confirm that it must have been Li You's doing!"

"Oh?" Tian Lingzi's eyebrows rose, obviously a little unconvinced. "What do you mean by Ling Fox Gongzi?"

"Hey, I don't know." Let the fox make a gesture. "Wei Miao'er, who healed adults, is actually Li You's cronies!"

"Even so, it can't be said that Li You has harmed his own officials."

"Li You regularly used what means to know that you were coming." Ling Huzhu continued to explain. "In order to find out your identity, he used some tricks to cause you to have a serious illness, and this disease can only be cured by Wei Miao'er. My lord, do you think about it, did Wei Miaoer ask about your identity? ”

When Tian Lingzi heard this, he was somewhat convinced. "Why did Li You go to great lengths to find out the identity of his official?"

"Because he knows your identity, he can deduce who is protecting my Linghu family." When Ling Hulu said this, his eyes were fixed on Tian Lingzi. "Knowing who is protecting my family, I can guess who is supporting our business."

Tian Lingzi's face changed greatly when he heard this, but after thinking about it for a while, he immediately showed a suspicious look. "Linghu Gongzi, through the identity of this official, it is reasonable to be able to infer the matter of His Majesty's protection. However, it would be too alarmist to speculate on His Majesty's involvement. ”

"However, if you didn't guess this, why did Li You make a public announcement..."

"It's just to be famous!"

Tian Lingzi's words are actually not entirely unreasonable.

Li You became famous because of the Wei Zhuang case, and now he has seized the evidence of the Linghu family's crime of selling illicit salt. If he can use this to bring down the Linghu family, he will definitely be famous in the government and the opposition, and his future will naturally be limitless.

Therefore, Li Youguang issued a notice, naturally in order to become famous.

However, although Ling Hulu had no substantive evidence, with his intuition, he believed that Li You was not just to be famous, but through some means, he knew that the emperor was the real mastermind of the private salt case. Because he knew this, he advertised the world, intending to fight against the emperor's absolute protection of the Linghu family through the mouths of the people all over the world.

After all, the emperor could not admit that he was also involved in the sale of illicit salt.

However, Linghu did lack sufficient basis to convince Tian Lingzi.

Tian Lingzi saw that Linghu Hu stopped talking, thinking that he had been persuaded by himself, and because he had taken the great benefit of the Linghu family, it was inconvenient to pursue anything, so he turned this article over. "However, after Li You made such a fuss, this matter is really a little difficult to do."

"What do you mean?"

"The official originally wanted to inform Li You in private, so that he could understand that the emperor did not want to investigate this matter further. However, now that the notice has been issued, it will be difficult to take it back. ”

"My lord, you don't know Li You too well."

"Oh?" Tian Lingzi was a little unhappy. "Could it be that Linghu Gongzi knows him very well?"

Although Ling Hu Jian fought Li You for the first time, after a few rounds, he had already determined that Li You was an extremely smart, treacherous and cunning opponent. However, at this time, to convince Tian Lingzi, there is indeed a lack of sufficient evidence.

It was impossible for Ling Hulu to tell Tian Lingzi that he was as treacherous as Li You, so he was able to guess Li You's purpose. However, if Tian Lingzi faces Li You at this time, he will definitely be played by Li You as a monkey.

However, the fate of his family is in the hands of Tian Lingzi.

What to do?

Ling Hu Jian felt helpless again.

It turns out that force does not work. However, nowadays, with intelligence, he is completely passive.

Could it be that more than ten years of operation in Shengtang County, and the century-old foundation of the Linghu family, will be destroyed in the hands of this small county order?

Thinking of this, Ling Hu looked at Tian Lingzi worriedly. "Lord Tian, I'm just worried, in case..."

"What's in case?" Tian Lingzi looked indifferent. "Even if the case of selling illicit salt is confirmed, what can it do?"

"What can it be?" Ling Huxuan looked at Tian Lingzi with a relaxed face, and seemed to see some hope. "Could it be that Lord Tian still has a backhand?"

"Haha." Tian Lingzi laughed heartily. "The Linghu family has made great contributions to the emperor, how could the emperor not consider it thoroughly."

"Thank you, sir! Thank you, Your Majesty! ”

Ling Hu Jian hurriedly got up and bowed, and Tian Lingzi waited until Ling Hu Jian swung to the end, and then got up leisurely to help.

100,000 taels of gold, it's really not a waste of money.

………

Li You sat in front of the bookcase and sorted out his thoughts again.

The three murders of the Miao family led to the fact that Yao Buwei was selling illicit salt.

Yao Buwei's accounts led to the fact that the proceeds from the illicit salt case flowed to the Linghu family.

Ling Huzhen's accounts point to the mastermind of the private salt case being the Ling Hu family.

The whole process included not only documentary evidence, but also human evidence and physical evidence of the seizure of smuggled salt. All the evidence forms a complete chain of evidence, and there is no possibility of overturning the case of the fox family's trafficking of illicit salt!

However, there is still a link that needs to be handled carefully. This link is the emperor's envoy, Tian Lingzi, who holds the emperor's edict.

If Tian Lingzi announces the imperial decree on the spot, requesting that the trial of the case be suspended for the time being, or if he orders the criminal department to bring the case to trial on the grounds that the matter is serious, then there will be another variable.

Since this business belongs to the emperor, the emperor will naturally protect the Linghu family by any means.

Therefore, Tian Lingzi must be stopped no matter what, and he must not be given any chance to announce the edict.

At least wait until he has ascertained all the facts and ordered all the people in the case to be taken into custody before letting him enter the lobby.

To achieve this, it is not just by resourcefulness, but by force alone!

Li You thought of this and looked at Wang Miao who was standing next to the bookcase.

Do you want to send Wang Miao out too?

Ouyang Jian, Ouyang Yan, Yuan Gang, and a giant lizard.

Probably enough.

Experience teaches.

In order to prevent accidents, Li You really didn't dare to send Wang Miao out again.

"My lord! My lord! ”

Liu Zhong ran in from outside the lobby in a panic.

"What's wrong?"

"Hundreds of people gathered outside the door, clamoring to come in and observe the trial."

"You go and tell them that the case will start at 8 o'clock. At that time, as long as they obey the order, they can come in and observe! ”

Liu Zhong's face was embarrassed. "Ah, so many people?"

"Not bad! It's just about so many people! ”

Li You smiled.

The official went to great lengths to advertise the world.

Without so many people, how can this ridiculous emperor's mouth be blocked!

"Miao'er, you go and cooperate with Mo Xing, be sure to protect the relevant personnel."

"Yes."

Wang Miao turned around and walked towards the back hall.

You ridiculous old emperor, this official is going to cut off your financial route!

Li You thought of what he had done before becoming the emperor, and there was a hint of happiness in his heart.

Regardless of whether the Linghu family will be brought down or not, after today's trial, it is absolutely impossible for Shengtang County's business of selling illicit salt to continue.

Maybe this is Li You's most fundamental purpose. , you are lonely, the young lady warms you with a movie
