Chapter 79 Fan Xian chases the murderer for thousands of miles!
After a sigh, Su Wenyi came before Emperor Qing with the imperial edict.
What Su Wenyi didn't know was that the look and reaction he had just shown when he looked at the jade seal had all been seen by Emperor Qing.
Emperor Qing looked at the imperial edict written by Su Wenyi and said nonchalantly, "What did you feel when you held the imperial seal just now?"
When Su Wenyi heard Emperor Qing's question, he knew that this was another trap set by Emperor Qing.
Lao Liu! You set me up again!
Is that the imperial seal? That's clearly the spot under your butt.
If I had any interest in that position, I'm afraid you would take my head right away.
But to be honest, I am not really interested in the position of emperor.
Power is poison!
For some people, rights are something they cannot achieve, but for the vast majority of people.
As long as you are contaminated by this thing, you are doomed to die without a burial place in the end.
For the so-called throne, one will end up being a lonely widower.
Such a person is no longer a human being.
It’s just like the grand masters nowadays, each of them is almost lost in their own power and authority.
Although Ku He of Northern Qi was a member of the royal family, he was unwilling to interfere in royal affairs.
Emperor Qing, the most powerful grandmaster, hid in the palace for more than ten years out of fear!
Life has been the same for so many years, full of intrigue every day.
Such days are simply hell to me!
Su Wenyi sighed and said, "Your Majesty, tell me the truth."
"That stuff is important to some people because they value that stuff."
"But for someone like me, that thing is not as good as a box lunch."
"At least a box lunch can keep me full, but the imperial seal is like a piece of stone to me."
Su Wenyi's answer was somewhat beyond Emperor Qing's expectations.
Emperor Qing put away the imperial edict and looked at Su Wenyi curiously and asked, "Don't you want to be the emperor?"
After saying this, Su Wenyi couldn't hold back any longer.
Su Wenyi said impatiently: "Your Majesty, do you have anything else to say?"
"If not, give me the imperial edict, and the matter of corruption will come to an end for now."
"After this incident, it will not be so easy for other corrupt officials to embezzle money."
Emperor Qing looked at Su Wenyi's impatient expression and couldn't help laughing for a moment.
But then he thought about Su Wenyi's character, and it was reasonable for him to behave like this.
Emperor Qing smiled and said, "Okay, go ahead. I'm tired too."
After Su Wenyi picked up the imperial edict, he turned and left without stopping for a moment.
Emperor Qing looked at Su Wenyi, who had obviously quickened his pace, and an intriguing smile appeared on his face.
Just when Su Wenyi was leaving the palace and preparing to go home, he happened to meet two people when passing by an intersection.
Fan Xian and Wang Qinian!
When Su Wenyi saw these two people, he was obviously stunned.
Similarly, Fan Xian and Wang Qinian were also stunned when they saw Su Wenyi.
Su Wenyi asked the two of them, "What are you two doing?"
Fan Xian and Wang Qinian walked up to Su Wenyi and prepared to salute.
Su Wenyi watched the two of them prepare to salute, and raised his hand to interrupt them, saying, "Okay, don't waste time."
"Just tell me what you are going to do? It's late at night."
Fan Xian said somewhat helplessly: "Uncle Su, although you have already told me who is the mastermind behind this."
"But this thing can't be used as evidence, so if you want solid evidence, you have to collect it yourself."
"The lieutenant commander of the city guard has been captured by you, Uncle Su, and I believe he has already been interrogated."
"I just didn't get any useful information from the other party."
"So if we want to investigate further, we can only start with the female swordsman from Northern Qi and Dongyi City."
"Cheng Jushu has already been interrogated, and with your help, we are ready to hunt him down overnight."
When he said this, Fan Xian's expression suddenly became strange.
Wang Qinian kept his head down the whole time and didn't dare to speak.
Si Lili stayed in Tongfu Inn for a period of time, and many people knew that Si Lili lived in Su Wenyi's home.
Now that Si Lili has escaped, this matter must be related to Su Wenyi.
Therefore, the task of capturing Si Lili can only be given to Fan Xian.
But there happened to be such a relationship between Si Lili and Su Wenyi, so Fan Xian was in a difficult situation.
Su Wenyi listened to Fan Xian's words, smiled and nodded, saying: "Do whatever you want to do, do what you should do."
"Don't worry about my relationship with Si Lili, just go and catch them."
"Leave the rest to me."
After saying that, Su Wenyi reached out, patted Fan Xian on the shoulder, and left.
After Su Wenyi left, Fan Xian and Wang Qinian both breathed a sigh of relief.
Wang Qinian looked at Fan Xian's relieved expression and asked quickly, "Sir, you and Lord Su are not... What are you afraid of?" When Fan Xian heard Wang Qinian's words, he said unhappily, "Nonsense! Aren't you afraid?"
"Last time, because my master said something bad about Uncle Su, he took revenge severely."
"We still have to take action against the people around him this time, if this makes him unhappy."
"Look at my Uncle Su's petty personality, he will definitely make things difficult for us!"
When Wang Qinian heard this, he didn't know what to say for a moment.
It seems to be true!
The next morning, Fan Xian and Wang Qinian left Kyoto to capture people.
Su Wenyi didn't care too much about this matter. After all, everything except what happened in Kyoto had nothing to do with Yishu.
Besides, Emperor Qing had already read the confessions made by those corrupt officials last night.
But the follow-up of this matter is not yet completely over!
Next, Su Wenyi would handle the follow-up matters, and by the way, he would also tell Deng Ziyue the news that he was promoted to the head of the Seventh Department.
At noon, Su Wenyi came to Tongfu Inn.
Here, Su Wenyi met someone he had never expected.
Teng Zijing and Li Chengze!
Li Chengze still chose to sit in the lobby, while Teng Zijing and his wife stood there quietly.
At this time, there was no one else in Tongfu Inn except Li Chengze.
As soon as Su Wenyi came in, he saw the empty inn.
Su Wenyi walked up to Li Chengze and said calmly, "Why are you here again?"
Li Chengze smiled and said, "I missed you. Let me see you."
Hearing Li Chengze's words, Su Wenyi couldn't help but turn around and say to Teng Zijing and Mrs. Teng: "Calculate how much money we can earn at noon."
"Then tell the Second Prince later that he will pay for today's consumption."
Li Chengze said indifferently: "These are all trivial matters. I came to you today to thank you."
Su Wenyi smiled and asked, "Thank you? Do you need to thank me?"
"Besides, I have cleaned up a lot of your accomplices. It's not appropriate to thank you now, right?"
While Su Wenyi was speaking, he was also looking at Li Chengze.
After this look, Su Wenyi noticed something different.
The current Li Chengze is obviously different from the Li Chengze I met before.
Especially when they met for the first time, Li Chengze still needed to keep up his disguise in front of Su Wenyi.
But now, it seems to have changed.
Su Wenyi couldn't help but think in his heart.
The obscene and somewhat perverted smile on Lao Er's face, could it be that he has gone crazy because he was too cruel?
Or, he is ready to give up completely and clean out his subordinates.
Li Chengze might have already confessed his crimes to Emperor Qing, and now he is stepping forward to use other crimes to get rid of the second brother's followers.
In this way, Li Chengze's guilt was greatly reduced.
Now if Li Chengze wants to give up again, he really only needs to look at the attitude of one person - Emperor Qing!
The crown prince? He was already destined to never become the true heir.
There is no other reason. Just because of the things that happened between Li Chengqian and Li Yunrui, Li Chengqian could never become the heir.
Therefore, both of them are useless now, but Li Chengze has come to his senses, but Li Chengqian is still unaware.
Now Li Chengze truly has a little bit of the flavor of a leisurely prince.
Li Chengze leaned back on the table, his elbows on the table, and a bright smile on his face.
Li Chengze sighed: "In the past few days, I have thought a lot of things through."
"I have always been controlled by others. Everything I do seems to be according to other people's plans."
"Gradually, I also felt that I had no way out."
"That's why I walked further and further down that road, and it became darker and darker, until I met you."
"Mr. Su, I really want to thank you."
"Some time ago, I found an opportunity to go to the palace to meet my father."
"That was the first time I had a conversation with him as a father and son."
"I confessed everything I had done before and explained my thoughts."
"Everything you do now is to help me, because even if you don't do it, I will take the initiative to clip my wings."
"Now, my good days have truly arrived!"
When he said this, Li Chengze himself didn't realize how bright the smile on his face was.
Su Wenyi looked at Li Chengze in silence for a moment.
It seems that Li Chengze has embarked on a completely different path.
But it’s also good this way. As the saying goes, there must be something hateful about a pitiful person, and there must be something miserable about a hateful person!
Li Chengze was the whetstone that was forcibly pushed forward by Emperor Qing, just to sharpen the knife for the crown prince.
Unfortunately, the whetstone has been serving as a whetstone obediently, but the prince is going further and further astray!
He is obviously the prince, but he has tied himself up.
Thinking about it, Su Wenyi said to Teng Zijing: "Bring up all the good wine and good food. Today, the Second Prince and I will have a good drink!"
