Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Pursuit of Victory
"Qingyun Gang?"
Seeing that the other party mentioned this, Li Kui hesitated a little: "Why are you asking this?" Judging from his expression, it was obvious that there was a bit of fear and fear.
This made Mo Ling more and more interested, and continued to ask: "Naturally, I want to know, what kind of courage does the Qingyun Gang have that dares to fight us? Don't forget, he is just a small gang, although there are indeed more than 2,000 people under his command. But with such a little strength, does he think he can fight us? Unless, he wants to rebel!"
"Rebellion? How is this possible?" Li Kui's body trembled, and he hurriedly vetoed.
Who doesn't know, the Red Phoenix Army's grasp of firearms has always been strict, except for those retired soldiers, no one is allowed to collect guns privately, if they are discovered, they will be arrested directly.
Even if he wants to take revenge, he can only get the gun through Wang Xing's way.
When there is no gun, if you want to confront the Red Phoenix Army, it is undoubtedly an egg to hit a stone.
Mo Ling smiled: "In that case, then why did he buy so many girls and open a brothel in his own place?"
"What do you mean?" Li Kui was taken aback and opened his mouth to shout.
Since the Qingyun Gang was conquered, he has been imprisoned, and he is not clear about the news from the outside world, so he naturally has this reaction.
Moreover, in Li Kui's eyes, this Qingyun Gang is just an honest business organization, at best, its gang leader Situ Yun has a relationship with many officials in the court.
Li Kui understands that's all.
Mo Ling chuckled lightly and said, "You don't know? That Qingyun Gang has been secretly engaged in human trafficking business all along! Otherwise, why do you think those officials and parliamentarians all ran into the Qingyun Gang, aren't they just greedy for the appearance of these women?"
"It can't be!"
Li Kui flatly denied it.
Although he is reckless and impulsive, he also has a bottom line, because of his sister, he hates human trafficking, and he actually did such a thing when he asked where he was.
"Huh. How is this impossible?"
Mo Ling shook his head and waved his hand at the person behind him, who immediately took out a few documents and arrived in front of Li Kui's eyes, allowing him to see clearly.
"These are the transaction deeds signed by Na Situ Yun when he was trafficking in human beings. There were two hundred and thirty-seven of them, all of whom were about twenty years old, the same age as your sister. β
It seemed to be a gentle word, but like a dagger, it was directly pierced into Li Kui's heart, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.
Li Kui really couldn't accept that he had become an accomplice who oppressed and persecuted women like the director of the textile factory: "This, this is impossible." β
"Of course, when we went, we found only ninety-seven. Mo Ling's words continued, still teasing the other party's nerves: "As for the other one hundred and forty women, where do you think they will be?"
"They, what's wrong?"
Li Kui's voice began to tremble.
Mo Ling's expression was gloomy and he replied, "I'm sorry. We're late, so they're all thereβ" The conversation stopped, and everyone could understand what kind of torture these girls in the prime of their life had endured.
Li Kui was silent for a while, and the whole person was stunned, where was the arrogance when he faced Wang Lu at the beginning.
"Of course. If you feel guilty, can you tell us, who does Situ Yun communicate with on weekdays? I think if we continue to investigate along this line, we should be able to find the real culprit. Mo Ling smiled and directly stated his purpose: "After all, before the incident, you used to be quite heavy with Situ Yun, so you should know about him, right." β
At this moment, Li Kui's heart defense had already been broken, and he immediately replied: "Okay, I said-"
"Good. If you can catch that person at that time, I think your sister's spirit in heaven will also forgive you. β
Mo Ling waved his hand and asked the secretary next to him to start recording, and then they would follow the content above to thoroughly investigate what was going on with this Qingyun Gang, and find out the real culprit behind it.

North of Chang'an City, Qiwu Mansion.
Until he returned to the mansion, Su Lan still looked demented, and he couldn't stop muttering to himself.
"How is this possible? How is this possible?......
Until now, he still couldn't accept that he had lost his status as a councilor, God knows how much he paid for this status as a councilor, and he lost it directly like this, which naturally made Su Lan panic.
"Alas, Su Gongzi, please don't be persistent. Ling Fei sighed and persuaded directly.
Su Lan hurriedly grabbed Ling Fei and opened his mouth to beg, "That's right." Haven't you been dismissed from office? In that case, help me, and don't let my lord strip me of my status as a councillor. You know, I've paid a lot of money for this councilor, so how can I lose it so easily?"
At the beginning, Xiao Feng set up a parliament and councilors, one was to win over the local heroes and so that they could support the Chifeng Army, and the other was also to give those subordinates who had supported him for many years a home, so that they would not be sad because they lost their official positions.
Of course, not everyone can be a member of the Council, and they must have considerable knowledge and ethics.
At least in the Law on Parliamentarians, it is clearly stipulated that members of parliament shall not engage in acts such as prostitution, embezzlement and bribery, and tax evasion.
This time, Xiao Feng also used this reason of prostitution, corruption and bribery to directly let Su Lan get out.
Ling Fei shook his head and said helplessly: "Young Master Su, you should know the temperament of the lord, the decision she made has never been able to be changed. And you have committed the most taboo thing of the lord, how can you recover? Now that you are still standing here, it is a great luck. β
At this point, Xiao Feng did not make a big move, but only abolished the status of the councilor, and did not deprive them of their property security.
Otherwise, how can this matter be easily resolved?
"It's just that, otherwise I wouldn't be able to stand here. Su Lan was also sad, but he didn't immerse himself in it too much.
Ling Fei's expression became serious, and he asked again: "Although this is the case, I have a question I want to ask Su Gongzi." As for the Qingyun Gang, did you really just play in it and didn't go too deep into it?"
"That's right. After all, Situ Yun's skills are good, and he was able to get Hu Nu. Naturally, I'm going to try it out. Su Lan didn't care, he was not a person who guarded himself like jade, and he naturally had no resistance to beauty.
It's a pity that the Chifeng Army is strict, and he only dares to sneak around, and he doesn't dare to do it openly.
Ling Fei felt a little relieved, closed his head and replied, "If it's just like that, then it's fine." β
"Hmph. Looking at your worried look, could it be that the Qingyun Gang has some secrets?"
Su Lan pursed his lips, feeling quite unhappy, but he felt sorry for himself that he couldn't go to the prostitute in the future, and after thinking of that Wang Xuan again, he felt annoyed: "If that's the case, then what should I do after that?" In order to be able to control the council, he did not fight against that Wang Xuan, and now that the other party's power has increased greatly, he has no choice but to attack himself.
"There is no way, our Kuomintang has suffered heavy losses now, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to confront the Kuomintang. Ling Fei's expression was gloomy, and he was a little unwilling.
This blow was so severe that more than half of the members of the entire Kuomintang were recruited, and the huge vacant seats that were vacated were also occupied by the Kuomintang, and the future behavior of the Kuomintang in parliament was almost predictable.
Su Lan clenched his hands and gritted his teeth and replied: "Although I am no longer a councilor, I will not give up so well." Wang Xuan, you wait, one day I will come back. β
"I hope so. Ling Fei sighed secretly, although he was thinking about abolishing the tenant system, he could only stop it.
In the current state of the Israeli Kuomintang, it is impossible for the KMT to pursue this policy.

Ronglu Mansion.
Coming back from the council, Wang Xuan came with a smug look.
But Li Qian beside him was not like this, and was still shocked by Xiao Feng's decision above the council: "Mr. Wang, why did the main guild do such a thing?
This matter is too widely implicated, in addition to many members of the parliament, even the officials in the Prime Minister's Office have not escaped, including Song Xin of the Ministry of Commerce, Li Ling of the Ministry of Finance, and Zhou Peicheng of the Ministry of Railways, all of whom were involved in it, and they were all taken off their official hats and directly grounded.
"Of course I do. Wang Xuan laughed and replied, "It's just that the lord has other considerations, so he made this kind of decision." β
Li Qian was confused: "What does this mean?"
"Huh. Actually, I don't know, but since the lord made this decision, he naturally has his own considerations. After all, the matter of this Qingyun Gang can be big or small, at worst, it is to collude with bureaucrats and poison the people, and at worst, it is bad ethics and personal morality. After all, the lord has only been removed from office now, and he has not yet arrested all of them. Wang Xuan replied with a smile.
Li Qian still looked incomprehensible: "Is this really the case?"
"Maybe. But keep reading, and you should know. Wang Xuan replied, a pair of sharp eyes slightly converged, revealing a somewhat playful look, as if he wanted to see through Xiao Feng's intentions.
Li Qian felt that his wisdom was limited, so he had to shake his head and reply: "Maybe." It's just Mr. Wang, what action should we take in the future? After the sudden loss of so many legislators, the parliament can be said to have been left empty for a while and completely lost its role. If we take advantage of this time to take action, we will certainly be able to do a great deal. β
There is no limit to the number of members of the Red Phoenix Army Council, except for the requirement of at least three members of each road, the rest of the people only need to meet the requirements before they can directly apply to become members of the council.
At present, the Kuomintang has a majority in Parliament, so it is natural to take advantage of this time to push forward its own policies.
