Chapter 159: Chen Pingping and Fei Jie were tortured to death! The Inspection Office rebelled! (23)

The moment he learned that Li Changan was the grandmaster, Emperor Qing was shocked at first, and then felt a little relieved.

Because today's incident cannot be suppressed, everyone in the world will know that it was Emperor Qing who set up the plan to kill Ye Qingmei.

All those who supported Ye Qingmei in the past and those who received favors from Ye Qingmei will become enemies of Emperor Qing.

Emperor Qing certainly doesn't care about the attitude of ordinary people.

Moreover, Ye Qingmei once caused unrest in Qing Kingdom, and most people did not like her.

Her slogan of equality for all was not spread among the grassroots, and most ordinary people were completely unaware of it.

What Emperor Qing fears most are the two grand masters and Wu Zhu.

If Wuzhu knew about this, he might rush into the palace with a sharp iron rod.

Now that Fan Xian knows about this, it is hard to say whether he will use the magic weapon to seek revenge.

However, Ku He and Si Gu Jian had always wanted to assassinate him because of national war.

The original situation in the world was that Ku He and Si Gu Jian were against the Grand Master of Qing Palace and Ye Liuyun, two against two evenly matched, which was the reason for the stable situation.

And now, Wu Zhu, who is at the grandmaster level, must be won over by Ku He and Si Gu Jian.

By this calculation, the other side has three grand masters.

So Emperor Qing is very clear-headed and Li Changan must be won over!
Moreover, Li Changan doesn't like Ye Qingmei and is unlikely to join the other camp, so it shouldn't be difficult to win her over.

However, Li Changan is the grand master and now the heir to the throne.

The threat to Emperor Qing himself is too great, and this threat must be eliminated sooner or later.

Emperor Qing thought that after planning to eliminate all the grand masters, he would finally eliminate Li Changan.

Therefore, Emperor Qing must keep his trump card hidden and not let Li Changan discover that he is a grandmaster.

After thinking through all these things in a flash, Emperor Qing made two decisions.

First, we must win over Li Changan.

Second, the Grand Master’s trump card must be hidden.

Emperor Qing looked at Chen Pingping coldly, "You old dog almost ruined my plan!"

"The loyal and good man of the Qin Kingdom was almost framed by you!"

"You have assassinated the emperor and murdered the royal family. You are guilty of treason and shall be executed immediately!"

"You actually betrayed me for a woman. I want the whole world to see that you are not a man!"

After hearing what Emperor Qing said, Fan Jian and his son finally couldn't bear it anymore and they all knelt down and begged for mercy.

"Your Majesty, please give Dean Chen some respect for your long-standing friendship with you!"

"Your Majesty, Dean Chen has worked hard for many years and made great contributions. Please leave his body intact!"

"Your Majesty, Dean Chen has been in charge of the Inspection Institute for more than 20 years. If you deal with it this way, something unexpected may happen!"

Li Changan sneered in his heart. It was a good thing that happened to the students in the inspection institute.

The Inspection Institute is essentially Chen Pingping’s personal force, and will be passed on to Fan Xian later.

For Li Changan, such power must be eliminated sooner or later.

Instead of looking for an opportunity later, it is better to pull it out by the roots now.

"Not only Chen Pingping will be tortured to death, Yingzi and Fei Jie will also be tortured to death!"

Li Changan said this coldly, and Fan Xian immediately held back.

"Your Highness, Prince Qin! No matter how serious Fei Jie's crime was, he must be tortured to death!"

Li Changan glanced at Emperor Qing and said, "Sixth Brother, if you don't speak up, I will expose your son's affairs."

Li Changan doesn't care about the royal reputation. Li Yunrui is not of royal blood anyway.

Emperor Qing said quickly, "Fei Jie has poisoned the Second Brother many times. He has a vicious mind. He shall be executed by slow slicing!"

Of course he knew that dealing with Fei Jie in this way would inevitably push Fan Xian to the opposite side.

But he also knew that Fan Xian and Wu Zhu could no longer be won over, so it would be better for him to completely side with Li Changan.

Seeing Fan Xian's indignation and inability to vent it, Emperor Qing's dissatisfaction completely erupted.

Before, he pretended to be affectionate towards Ye Qingmei, but it was just a lie to deceive Fan Xian.

He wanted to win over Fan Xian, and then Wu Zhu, but now there is no need for that.

If this son is full of hatred towards himself, then there is no need for him to live.

"Fan Xian, in three days, Chen Pingping and Fei Jie will be executed by slow slicing. You will oversee the execution!"

Hearing this order, Fan Jian was completely defeated, "Your Majesty, you are too cruel!"

Emperor Qing's voice calmed down instead, "It's time for Fan Xian to make a choice."

In front of Emperor Qing, Li Changan said to the eldest prince, "Li Chengru, have the imperial guards take Chen Pingping to the Jingdu prison and execute him in three days!"

Li Chengru glanced at Emperor Qing, who frowned and said, "Listen to King Qin."

After Chen Pingping was dragged away, Li Changan slowly walked in front of Emperor Qing.

"Your Majesty, that old dog Chen Pingping has framed me..."

Emperor Qing held Li Changan's hand and said, "Changan, I almost wrongly blamed you!"

"Of course, the charges this old dog said don't count. You are still the King of Qin, second only to the emperor!"

Li Changan saw that Lao Liu was still pretending to be confused, so he reminded him, "I just saved your life."

"If I hadn't stopped Chen Pingping's shotgun, you would have died."

"Those steel balls and iron sand are so fast that you can't dodge them with your ninth-rank strength."

"Your Majesty, you are not a Grandmaster, right?"

Emperor Qing's eyelids twitched, and he said awkwardly, "No, of course not, so you deserve credit for saving me."

"Those who have made contributions should be rewarded. Let me think..."

Li Changan held Emperor Qing's hand and said, "Don't think about it. Let Prime Minister Lin handle this matter."

He turned to Lin Ruofu and said, "Prime Minister Lin, I give you two days to come up with a plan for me. Do you know what to do?"

Lin Ruofu said respectfully, "Your Highness, Prince Qin, you have done a great service in saving the emperor, and you are also a great master."

"You not only saved His Majesty, but also protected our Great Qing Empire. When I return, I will read ancient books, gather ideas, and come up with a reward plan."

Li Changan nodded, "Very good, do your job well."

Emperor Qing looked at Li Changan and Lin Ruofu helplessly, as if the emperor had nothing to do with them.

Then, Li Changan walked in front of Qin Ye again.

"General Qin, you were the one who personally led the men to cut Ye Qingmei into pieces."

"Your Majesty was behind the scenes planning, and you were the one charging in the front. You were so brave."

As soon as these two sentences came out, the expression on Fan Xian's face suddenly became even uglier.

Qin Ye secretly breathed a sigh of relief. What King Qin said meant that the Qin family was still useful.

Li Changan did not deal with the Qin family because the Qin family still controlled about 100,000 troops at the border.

Now that we have made clear what they have done, it will be impossible for them to stand on the side of Fan Xian and Wu Zhu.

Wait until Li Changan's own troops enter Kyoto and take control of the situation, and then find a way to attack the Qin family.

Moreover, if they want to attack the Qin family, they must eliminate all the forces of the Qin family in the military.

The small court meeting in the imperial study brought about big news that had not been seen in the court of Qing State for decades.

The president of Jiancha assassinated the emperor, and the Prince of Qin Li Changan was the grandmaster!

The whole of Kyoto was in an uproar, and people on the streets were discussing these two pieces of news.

Li Changan, who was originally the most suitable successor to the throne, is now gaining popularity again.

Fan Mansion.

In the carriage coming out of the palace, Fan Xian and Fan Jian father and son didn't say a word.

As soon as the carriage stopped, Fan Xian jumped out and headed for the Inspection Institute.

If Dean Chen is tortured to death, there will be a big mess in the hospital.

He is the second-in-command of the Inspection Bureau and must take charge of the situation.

But just as he took a few steps, a dozen eighth-rank guards surrounded him.

Fan Jian put his hands behind his back and said in a deep voice, "From now on, until the day after tomorrow when the execution begins, you are not allowed to leave the Fan Residence." Fan Xian said anxiously, "Father, something big will happen in the Inspection Office!"

Fan Jian said expressionlessly, "Those old men are Chen Pingping's long-time comrades-in-arms. Can you suppress them?"

"Do you think that Chen Pingping has promoted you to the position of Director General in just over two years that you can really control the Inspection Institute?"

"Chen Pingping has developed the Inspection Institute into his own power. Do you think His Majesty doesn't know about this, or does Li Changan not know about this?"

"No need to say anything, go back home!"

In this way, Fan Xian was placed under house arrest by Fan Jian in the Fan Mansion and never went to the Inspection Institute again.

In the Inspection Institute.

Yan Bingyun, the host of the everywhere, had not received any news from the palace, but a shadow appeared in his hall.

"Shadow, you're back?"

Li Changan released Shadow as agreed and announced to the public that Shadow had escaped from prison.

However, because Shadow's loyalty was not high, Li Changan directly gave him a life and death talisman.

"Yan Bingyun, come with me, I have something for you."

After saying this, Shadow turned around and left. Yan Bingyun immediately followed him, but unexpectedly, Shadow arrived at the door of Chen Pingping's room.

The lock of the room was opened by Shadow, who quickly walked to the bookshelf and found a file.

"You are Sean's grandson. Chen Pingping was arrested for assassinating Emperor Qing and will be tortured to death three days later."

After Shadow finished speaking, he left, leaving Yan Bingyun alone in Chen Pingping's room.

Yan Bingyun had no time to be surprised, because the file in front of him was the one he had been looking for.

After he opened it, he quickly glanced through it and then quickly memorized it all.

After that, he locked the door as usual and returned to his room nervously.

Because Sean's affairs were of concern to Emperor Qing, Chen Pingping had to keep the files, otherwise they would have been destroyed long ago.

He saw clearly that he was not from Nanqing, but was really Sean's grandson!

He was in a very uneasy mood, but the news of Chen Pingping's execution was even more shocking!

Dean Chen is an old friend of Your Majesty and has made great contributions to the country. How could he go back to assassinate Emperor Qing?

Not long after the turmoil in his heart began to roll, he heard a noise outside.

"Something bad is going to happen!"

"The dean actually attempted to assassinate His Majesty!"

"The dean has been taken to Kyoto Prefecture Prison!"

"King Qin Li Changan is a great master!"

"The dean was stopped by the King of Qin in his attempt to assassinate the emperor. The dean, Mr. Fei, and Yingzi were all sentenced to death by slicing!"

"How is it possible? Why would the dean want to assassinate His Majesty?"

"Lingchi! How could it be so cruel!"

……

As the noise grew louder, Yan Bingyun also walked out of the room to check the situation.

"Come on, everyone, go back to the hall and arrange things as you like in the courtyard!"

The person who spoke was Murong Yan, the respected director of the hospital. This old man had the same qualifications as Chen Pingping.

Because he is an absolute fan of Chen Pingping, he also strongly supports Chen Pingping's support for Fan Xian.

But now that Chen Pingping and Fan Xian are not here, this old man has become the backbone of the Inspection Institute.

"Go and inform the various organizers to come to the main hall to discuss matters immediately!"

Soon, the leaders of the eight departments gathered in the hall.

The people from the first, third, fifth and sixth departments came as deputies, and the other departments came as hosts.

Everyone present was Chen Pingping's direct descendant without exception, except for Yan Bingyun, who had mixed feelings after just learning about his life experience.

"what happened?"

“Is the news true?”

"Who is spreading rumors?"

Murong Yan seemed to have become the leader of these people, and he suppressed the noise in the hall.

"Everyone, please don't panic. We have received confirmed news."

"President Chen used the magic weapon left by Miss Ye to assassinate His Majesty, but was stopped by King Qin. He has been imprisoned in the Kyoto Prefecture Prison."

Murong Yan repeated the news he had received, and everyone fell into a brief silence. Everyone believed the words of this elder with the highest seniority.

"More than a dozen ministers have seen it with their own eyes, and it is absolutely true. Everyone, we should come up with a charter."

After a brief silence, someone asked, "The King of Qin is a Grandmaster?"

Murong Yan said, "It's absolutely true. He used his true energy to block the dean's magic weapon."

The news has been confirmed and dissatisfaction has spread rapidly.

"It seems that His Majesty is going to take action against our broken yard!"

"If you want to incriminate yourself, why bother?"

"Besides stabbing the emperor and plotting treason, what other crime can be used to arrest the dean?"

"The dean has devoted his entire life to the country, but this is what he ended up with!"

"Perhaps he was forced to frame me by the King of Qin!"

At this time, Murong Yan slowly said, "The dean entered the palace with a memorial to the King of Qin."

Not long after they started discussing, the door of the hall was suddenly pushed open, and dozens of very experienced officials from the Inspection Institute rushed in angrily.

"What are you still discussing?"

"President Chen will be executed by lingchi in three days, and you still don't want to save him!"

"The King of Qin is a great master, not a god!"

"We only rescued the old dean, not assassinated the King of Qin!"

"Murong Yan, you have followed the dean for more than ten years, tell me what to do!"

……

After another round of noise, Murong Yan finally calmed down these veterans.

They sat in the hall one by one, listening to the meetings of the chairmen.

Yan Bingyun frowned. The fact that Murong Yan asked these people to stay showed his attitude.

Those who broke in were a group of people loyal to Chen Pingping.

As expected, Murong Yan said to everyone, "Everyone here was trained by Dean Chen."

"The dean has been with us through life and death for more than ten years. Can you bear to watch him being cut into pieces?"

The deputy director of the Third Department, who was also Fan Xian's senior brother, said, "The dean and the teachers have worked hard for Qing Country all their lives. This is not fair!"

The other organizers basically had the same idea.

Everyone was outraged at the fate of Chen Pingping and the other two, and suggested trying to rescue them.

Seeing that everyone had the same attitude, Murong Yan said, "Everyone, we are the Daqing Inspection Institute!"

"With the combined efforts of the eight departments, it is very easy to rescue someone in Kyoto City!"

"One of them has people hiding in all the important government offices, and there must be backup plans everywhere!"

"The Eighth Office should immediately instigate a disturbance at the Imperial College, using any excuse to cause chaos in Kyoto."

"Three places have poisoned the water source inside Kyoto, forcing Kyoto to open tomorrow!"

"There are fires everywhere in Kyoto City. Once we exert our strength, we can just save a few people. It's very easy."

Yan Bingyun felt a chill in his heart, and only then did he realize the vicious style of the old man from the Inspection Institute.

"Poisoning the water source in Kyoto? How many innocent people will be harmed by that?"

Upon hearing Yan Bingyun's words, an old man immediately shouted, "As long as everyone is determined! My Inspection Institute has the ability to turn Kyoto into a deserted city!"

"If the dean can survive, what does the death of hundreds of thousands of people matter?"
