Chapter 56 On the Importance of Acting

Eunuch Hou saw Su Wenyi speak, and Li Yunrui was standing next to him.

As the loyal dog beside Emperor Qing, he naturally knows Li Yunrui's madness best.

Eunuch Hou had no choice but to turn around and continue forward.

After a while, Eunuch Hou brought the two of them to Emperor Qing's bedroom.

Su Wenyi and Li Yunrui stood in front of the screen, while Eunuch Hou walked into the bedroom.

After a moment, Eunuch Hou came out again.

After Eunuch Hou glanced at Li Yunrui, he said to Su Wenyi, "Master Su, please come in."

Li Yunrui seemed not to have heard it and continued kneeling there.

On the contrary, Su Wenyi stood there with a calm look.

Su Wenyi nodded to Eunuch Hou and said, "Thank you, Eunuch Hou."

After saying that, Su Wenyi walked straight into the bedroom.

As soon as he entered the bedroom, Su Wenyi saw Emperor Qing lying on a chair.

Su Wenyi perfunctorily bowed to Emperor Qing and said, "Your Majesty, I am Su Wenyi."

Emperor Qing raised his eyebrows, glanced at Su Wenyi and asked, "What happened tonight was a bit of a fuss."

"Tell me what's going on."

Su Wenyi said without thinking: "Nothing, I just learned it from Wang Qinian, the clerk of the Inspection Institute."

"Commander-in-Chief Li Qiming is reselling military equipment. Ordinary people naturally don't dare to buy or sell such things."

"I was worried that it was the work of Northern Qi's secret agents, so I reported it to the dean."

"Under the leadership and command of the dean, I, Yan Ruohai and Deng Ziyue from the Seventh Division will act separately."

"Not only did we kill dozens of traitors, but we also managed to get some intelligence from Li Qiming."

When Emperor Qing heard Su Wenyi say this, he snorted coldly and threw the book in his hand aside.

Emperor Qing stood up, held his waist with both hands and walked in front of Su Wenyi, looking straight at Su Wenyi.

Just like that, the two looked into each other's eyes.

After a moment, Emperor Qing said sternly: "Do you know that you have ruined my plan?"

Su Wenyi was not at all panicked and still had a smile on his face.

"Your Majesty, I don't understand."

Emperor Qing circled around Su Wenyi and said, "I sent that person there."

"Do you know who attacked you and Yan Ruohai tonight?"

Su Wenyi said without thinking: "In this world, there is no one else except the crazy woman kneeling outside the door and your good son."

"Who dares to rebel against you? Besides, even if others want to, they don't have the ability to do it, right?"

Su Wenyi's words made Emperor Qing laugh out of anger.

Emperor Qing asked Su Wenyi with a bad face: "Since you knew it was them, why didn't you tell me when you came in just now?"

"Why are you hiding it? Are you in collusion with them?"

"Or is it that everything you said is false, and you just want to attack the royal family!"

"Besides, all matters in Kyoto should be handled by the Inspection Bureau!"

"Even if you want to arrest someone, it shouldn't be you who does it."

"Why, Lord Su is planning to take over the reins of the Inspection Office?"

Su Wenyi couldn't help but shake his head when he heard this.

This old man clearly knows everything but he just won’t say it out.

But apart from this, I also want to see my own attitude.

If you give in, not only will you not get the credit, you may even suffer.

But if I deny it, this old man will then accuse me of deceiving the emperor and pin me to the ground.

Dealing with such people is really tiring!

Especially the last sentence, we are all thousand-year-old foxes, and you still force me to act with you. If you say you don't know anything about this, I absolutely don't believe it!

You may not know about your son and Li Yunrui, but if you say that you don’t know about Zhu Ge’s collusion with Li Yunrui.

Then the people under your command can really be sent to the front line.

Especially putting someone like Yan Xiaoyi by his side, isn't it also to paralyze Li Yunrui?

But at this point, I don't have any good solution.

A few words dug three holes for me, Lao Liu! You forced me to do this!
Su Wenyi took a half step back, knelt down and saluted Emperor Qing, saying, "Your Majesty, this time I am the one leading the team to arrest people."

"There is only one reason. Someone in the Inspection Institute is colluding with the Princess!"

"The assassination in Danzhou is an example! Before the dean left Kyoto, he had instructed us to find out the traitor hidden in the Inspection Institute!"

"This matter concerns the safety of the Inspection Office, so I have no choice but to do it myself!"

"And I have confirmed that the traitor in this Inspection Institute is the acting director - Zhu Ge!"

The moment Emperor Qing saw Su Wenyi kneeling down, he already had a bad feeling in his heart!

Emperor Qing said with a cold expression: "Do you have any evidence?"

Su Wenyi said firmly: "Yes! And I have enough evidence!"

"But now we have only found Zhuge alone. I think this is not enough."

"Your Majesty, please give me a few more days so that I can catch all the people behind Zhuge."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Qing fell silent.

"Okay! I'll give you one day!"

"After one day, I want to see conclusive evidence."

"Otherwise, I will punish you!"

Su Wenyi quickly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, except for Zhuge's matter."

"Li Yunrui, the Crown Prince, and the Second Prince sent people to assassinate Li Qiming tonight. This shows that these two are the buyers behind Li Qiming!"

"Your Majesty, please investigate thoroughly!"

After Su Wenyi said this, Emperor Qing's expression suddenly turned cold.

"That's enough! The arms trading is over now!"

"You go down!"

After saying this, Emperor Qing turned around and returned to the dragon throne.

When Su Wenyi saw Emperor Qing's look, he didn't force anything and just turned around and left.

When he turned around, Su Wenyi's face was already full of smiles.

Sixth brother, if you dig a hole for me, I will drag your two sons and your sister into it.

Aren't you going to investigate? Aren't you setting a trap for me?

Okay, then I'll put your son on the stove first.

If you really force me, I will tell you what happened between your son and your sister.

We'll see which of us will give up first.

As he was thinking, Su Wenyi had already walked out of the bedroom.

When Eunuch Hou saw Su Wenyi walking out with a smile on his face, he began to doubt his life.

Eunuch Hou walked up to Su Wenyi and asked in a low voice, "Sir Su, why are you so happy? Did His Majesty give you a reward?"

Su Wenyi glanced at Li Yunrui who was kneeling on the ground and said, "There is no reward, but you'd better be careful."

"You probably won't be able to sleep tonight."

After saying that, Su Wenyi left!

Eunuch Hou looked at Su Wenyi, then at Li Yunrui who was kneeling on the ground.

In the end, Eunuch Hou chose to go and meet His Majesty first.
