Chapter 80 How to deal with an honest official? Simple!
Meanwhile, outside Kyoto!
In a forest, Fan Xian and Wang Qinian, a tracking expert, successfully tracked down Si Lili.
Even though Si Lili ran away this time just for a show, it doesn't mean that Si Lili will let it go.
After all, acting can't be too fake. It would be inappropriate if Fan Xian caught him too easily.
Therefore, Si Lili used all her wisdom when escaping.
Strategies such as feinting to the east and attacking in the west, passing off a fake as the real, and surprise attack were used one after another.
After going through this whole process, Fan Xian fell into self-doubt.
But at the most critical moment, the protagonist's halo still came into play, and Fan Xian finally thought of Si Lili's real escape route!
Immediately afterwards, Fan Xian changed direction again and followed Si Lili's escape route!
three days later
In the Inspection Institute, Su Wenyi was lying on a recliner with a look of satisfaction on his face.
Just at this moment, Song Chunfeng pushed the door and walked in.
Su Wenyi saw Song Chunfeng coming in and said without raising his head, "Speak."
Song Chunfeng walked up to Su Wenyi and said respectfully, "Your Excellency, I just received news that the Chief Secretary has captured Si Lili."
"We are on our way back now. What do you think we should do next?"
When Su Wenyi heard Song Chunfeng's words, he immediately sat up from his chair.
Su Wenyi frowned, thinking continuously in his mind.
Now that Fan Xian has captured Si Lili, the next step is to bring her back.
There shouldn't be any danger along the way. The real danger will come after returning to Kyoto.
Some people will not tolerate Si Lili returning to Kyoto. After all, the token that controls Cheng Jushu was taken away from Si Lili.
Si Lili had met the other party in private, and as long as Si Lili was willing, she could tell him the other party's identity.
If the scene continues as it is, Si Lili will not speak a word, and those people will try every means to get Si Lili into their hands.
They can't sleep unless Si Lili is under their control!
Thinking about it, Su Wenyi asked, "How long will it take for Fan Xian and the others to come back?"
Song Chunfeng said without thinking: "If it is slower, it may take one or two days. After all, the speed of escorting prisoners will be slower."
After listening to this, Su Wenyi said, "Don't worry about it. Just keep a close eye on their movements."
"When they come back, bring people back immediately."
"The people who tried to assassinate Fan Xian are probably quite powerful. Now that they have captured him alive, they will surely jump out."
"Bring the paperwork with you when the time comes. At least you'll do what you need to do to save face."
"As for those who want to rob people, remember them!"
"After this matter is over, we will go to their homes one by one. Do you understand?"
After listening to this, Song Chunfeng bowed and said, "I understand!"
After saying that, Song Chunfeng turned and left.
After Song Chunfeng left, Su Wenyi sat in the chair in silence for a long time.
The scene between Si Lili and Fan Xian will come to a temporary end when Si Lili is thrown into seven dungeons or a cell.
Next, we need to take action against Lin Gong.
According to the original novel, Wu Zhu would attack Lin Gong, but until now, Lin Gong is still fine.
It seems that there are only two possibilities. The first is that Wu Zhu still doesn't know about Fan Xian's assassination attempt.
If that's the case, then it makes sense.
After all, given Wu Zhu's personality, if someone really wanted to kill Fan Xian, he would be dead as soon as the other person had this idea.
The second possibility is that Fan Xian’s injuries were not serious and Teng Zijing was only seriously injured but not killed.
Therefore, this incident was not enough to make Wu Zhu want to kill someone.
If it is the first possibility, then he can take the initiative to find Emperor Qing, and then work with Emperor Qing to take down Lin Gong, and then use coercion and bribery on Lin Ruofu, and finally achieve the goal of deposing him.
In this way, you can get another reward from the system.
During this period of time, since the handling of corrupt officials, my system has not appeared for a while.
I miss the system very much!
Thinking about this, Su Wenyi stood up from his chair.
Inside the palace, in the Shangshufang.
If other ministers wanted to see Emperor Qing, it would depend on Emperor Qing’s mood.
Even if it was Chen Pingping, Emperor Qing would not want to see her if he wanted to.
But Su Wenyi came to him on his own initiative, which was not a good thing for Emperor Qing.
Emperor Qing was lying on the bed. He glanced at Su Wenyi standing in front of him and said, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
Su Wenyi blurted out without thinking: "Your Majesty, Fan Xian has captured the man and is on his way back to Beijing."
"If nothing goes wrong, we will be able to reach Kyoto in three to five days."
"After Fan Xian brings the prisoner back, I can come forward and lock Si Lili up in the Seventh Place."
"When the time comes, we can take action against Lin Gong, and everything will be simple."
"As long as we can find something wrong with Lin Gong, we can force Lin Ruofu to abdicate."
"When that time comes, the position of prime minister can be completely abolished."
After Su Wenyi finished speaking this long string of words, a gleam of light flashed in Emperor Qing's eyes.
Good! Now Fan Xian brings the person back. As long as the other party identifies Lin Gong, this matter will be completely settled.
How he wants to control Lin Ruofu at that time will all depend on his mood.
But judging from the current situation, if we just hand Si Lili over to Fan Xian for interrogation.
By then, no matter what the outcome is, trouble will definitely fall on you.
Instead of doing this, it would be better to let Su Wenyi come forward first. After all, Su Wenyi and Si Lili have an old acquaintance.
Besides, Si Lili is of royal blood no matter what. No matter what, we can't just let Si Lili die like this.
Emperor Qing pondered for a moment and then said, "Okay, you go and handle this matter yourself. As for Si Lili's matter, you should also pay more attention to it."
"As for why Si Lili is by your side, I don't care and I don't care."
"I only believe that you, Su Wenhe, will not betray Qing Kingdom."
To a large extent, Emperor Qing was able to say this because he took risks.
After Su Wenyi glanced at Emperor Qing, he respectfully bowed ninety degrees to him.
"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty!"
When Su Wenyi finished speaking and was about to start feeling proud, Emperor Qing's next words made Su Wenyi silent again.
Emperor Qing said to Su Wenyi expressionlessly: "By the way, there is something I want to ask you."
The strategy you set before, which dealt with corrupt officials by killing some, releasing some, and keeping some, has already begun to be slowly implemented."
"But besides these, there is one more thing."
"Because of this incident, the censors in the Censorate now have to submit countless memorials every day."
"As for these people, there are not many corrupt officials among them, but they give me more headaches than corrupt officials."
"Wenhe, tell me, how should I deal with these people?"
After hearing this, Su Wenyi said indifferently, "Your Majesty, are those people in the Censorate honest officials?"
Emperor Qing nodded seriously and said, "He is an honest official!"
Su Wenyi continued to ask: "Your Majesty, is it difficult for you to handle this?"
Emperor Qing: "Yes, it's difficult to handle."
Su Wenyi asked again: "What if the other party is a corrupt official?"
Emperor Qing said with a firm gaze: "If they are corrupt officials, I have plenty of ways to deal with them!"
"But the censors in the Censorate are like stones in a toilet, smelly and hard."
"They don't care about money, or even their own lives. What they care about most is reputation."
"This time, you've given them something to use against you, so they can severely accuse you."
After listening to this, Su Wenyi smiled evilly and said, "If that's the case, why not turn all these honest officials into corrupt officials?"
"Those imperial censors are also human beings, and human beings have seven emotions and six desires."
"If you don't want money, then you should be more interested in other things. Life is nothing more than these few words - eating, drinking and having fun."
"Especially a man, and an official at that."
"The censors in the Metropolitan Censorate should live a simple life on weekdays."
"For those who have never had a good life, it won't be too difficult for them to become corrupt through other means."
"Besides, even if there is really no way to corrupt it, we still have other ways."
"Frame-ups, fabrication of evidence, etc., these are all methods."
"Anyway, as long as we turn them into corrupt officials, that's enough."
As soon as Su Wenyi finished speaking, the voice of the Poison System rang in his mind again.
Poison System: "It is detected that the host is using poison to harm the censor of the Metropolitan Censorate."
"Congratulations to the host for receiving the reward: the special hobby of all the censors in the Censorate (normal version)!"
When Su Wenyi heard the system prompt, his eyes suddenly lit up.
It would be much easier if we knew the hobbies of those censors.
The simplest way is to treat the disease with the right medicine.
Especially when dealing with those imperial censors who are only seeking fame and reputation, it is extremely easy.
There are many people like Lai Mingcheng in the Censorate, but this does not mean that all the Censorate members are like this.
In this way, I will have a chance to deal with those people.
Go back and study it carefully, and then divide it into parts.
After hearing Su Wenyi's words, Emperor Qing looked at Su Wenyi with surprise.
Emperor Qing had never thought of what Su Wenyi was thinking.
Emperor Qing knows how to deal with corrupt officials, but how to turn honest officials into corrupt officials is something that touches on his blind spots in knowledge.
But after hearing what Su Wenyi said just now, Emperor Qing felt as if he had just been enlightened!
Yes! Since those people claim to be honest officials, then I just need to find a way to corrupt them.
After all, he is the emperor, and he just needs to catch the opponent's tail.
If you want to deal with the other person, isn’t it easy?
As Emperor Qing thought about it, the light in his pupils grew brighter.
Finally, Emperor Qing looked at Su Wenyi and laughed, "Okay! Wenhe! I'll leave this matter to you to handle personally!"
