Chapter 36 The Imperial Palace Martial Pavilion

"I was about to report this matter to my father-in-law!"

Xiao Lizi quickly replied: "Since His Majesty approved Li Fang's retirement, he took his whole family and left the capital soon. Now he has arrived at Longyang Mansion. On the surface, there seems to be no problem. Fortunately, we were prepared beforehand.

, bribed several small stewards in the Li Mansion."

"I heard from them that before leaving, Li Fang sent a letter to Longyang Prefecture. The content of the letter is unknown, but we have received news that Li Lin, the eldest son of the Li family, sent someone to Longyang Prefecture."

"We noticed something fishy, ​​so we checked it out. After checking, we discovered a big problem!"

"What's the problem?" Wang Jin sat up straight, with a cold light in his eyes.

He had long felt that His Majesty would allow Li Fang to resign.

There must be a deep meaning in it.

So let your subordinates keep an eye on it and not miss any details.

The hard work paid off, and as expected, something happened.

"Eunuch, we discovered that during Li Fang's tenure as the Second Assistant to the Cabinet, in addition to embezzling some money, he also indulged his relatives, ran rampant in Longyang Prefecture, and occupied 80,000 acres of private land. The prefect of Longyang was once Li

Fang’s student!” Xiao Lizi replied.

Hearing this, even Wang Jin was shocked. He was born in a poor family and understood what this meant.

Eighty thousand acres of land, not to mention how much grain is produced every year, just based on the land rent, it is extremely astonishing.

Don’t you, the dignified cabinet minister and the Minister of Household Affairs, know how serious this matter is?

Land has always been the foundation of the country.

Occupying people's land is a serious crime no matter which dynasty it is placed in!

However, Wang Jin quickly calmed down and continued: "This is serious, is there any evidence?"

You must know that this is related to the former cabinet bachelor, so it must be handled carefully and with sufficient evidence.

If something goes wrong inside, even I cannot bear the responsibility.

After all, such a big matter must be reported to His Majesty the Emperor.

"I also know that the matter is very important, so I don't dare to be careless. A few days ago, I sent people to go to Longyang Mansion to investigate. I found that it was indeed the case, and it caused a big fuss in the local area. It almost caused bloodshed and was occupied.

The people in Tiandi have submitted petitions to the county government, but without exception, nothing has come to fruition."

"Moreover, our people were obstructed by people from Longyang Mansion during the investigation, and they were almost discovered."

Xiao Lizi said that he had just received the news today, so he hurriedly came here to report it.

"They invaded people's fields and allowed their relatives to run rampant in the countryside!"

"I think the letter I wrote to the prefect of Longyang before was probably also for this matter. The officials protected each other and suppressed the people? This Li Fang is really brave!"

Wang Jin narrowed his eyes slightly. After hearing the news, he had almost guessed what happened.

Li Fang must have used the power in her hands when she was serving as the second assistant in the cabinet.

All the papers handed over by the common people were suppressed.

At the same time, he also wrote to the prefect of Longyang who was once a student.

Let the other side suppress the people under their rule.

Such behavior is already covering the sky with one hand!

"Then father-in-law, what should we do next?"

At this time, Xiao Lizi spoke, somewhat unsure of his decision.

Because the matter has exceeded the scope of ability.

One is a former cabinet bachelor.

The other one is also the prefect of Longyang. To them, he is a big shot!

"Just leave it alone for the time being. Our family will handle it." Wang Jin thought for a moment and continued: "This matter is too big and needs to be adjudicated by His Majesty. I will be on duty tomorrow afternoon and will report back to Your Majesty!"

He felt that His Majesty, the wise and mighty Emperor, might know that there was something wrong with Li Fang.

But I definitely didn’t know that this person actually dared to allow his relatives to invade people’s fields.

He also joined forces with the Longyang prefect to suppress the people who complained.

Therefore, I must let His Majesty know no matter what.

Immediately, Wang Jin looked at the people present and said with a smile: "You have done a good job this time. If the time comes, our family will ask Your Majesty to take credit for you, but before that, you really need to keep an eye on Li Fang."

People are waiting, do you understand?"

"I'll understand later. Thank you so much, Eunuch Wang!"

Everyone was overjoyed when they heard that he was going to ask for credit.

They have been busy these days, isn't it just for this day?

Afterwards, Xiao Lizi and the other eunuchs thanked him again.

Then he turned around and left, each busy with his own work.

As for Wang Jin, after everyone left, a look of excitement appeared on his face.

It has been a month since I became the Supervisor of Ceremonies, and I have not made any achievements during this period.

It made him a little anxious and felt that he had failed His Majesty's holy grace. Fortunately, this time, he actually caught the big fish Li Fang.

The former deputy minister of the cabinet committed such a serious crime,

Wang Jin is confident.

Once the incident about Li Fang is reported back, His Majesty will definitely be very happy.

It doesn't matter whether he is rewarded or not, as long as His Majesty knows that he is right to be promoted, that is his greatest wish!

Wang Jin couldn't help but feel a little excited when he thought that His Majesty would praise him.

...

The next morning.

Because there is no morning service today.

Wei Yunyi simply washed himself.

Instead of going to the imperial study room, he went straight to the palace martial arts pavilion.

The Wuge is said to be in the imperial palace, but in fact it is far away from the central area and located on a hill at the northernmost end.

The hill is not high, but because it is inaccessible all year round and no one takes care of it, the journey is rugged and the walking speed is very slow.

Of course, this has nothing to do with Wei Yunyi. As His Majesty the Emperor, all he has to do is sit on the dragon chariot.

About half an hour later, the dragon chariot stopped on the top of the mountain.

The surrounding forests are lush and lush, and there are many exotic flowers and plants.

However, Wei Yunyi came here not to enjoy the scenery, so after getting off the dragon chariot, he raised his head and looked at an antique pavilion not far away.

The whole pavilion has five floors, with dragons and phoenixes carved on every place, and some places are even covered with gold foil.

The main entrance is very large, made of gold and stone, and looks extremely heavy.

This is the Martial Pavilion of the Great Wei Palace.

It was established by Emperor Taizu Gao. Legend has it that it contains a collection of various martial arts from thousands of sects.

It is specially provided for the cultivation of royal children, or as a reward for meritorious ministers and generals.

In fact, Wei Yunyi had been here several times before he became the crown prince.

However, I have never entered the martial arts pavilion.

Because this is a forbidden area of ​​the palace.

Unless ordered by the emperor, even members of the royal family are not allowed to enter at will.

Naturally, this could not stop him. After stopping for a moment, he immediately ordered the eunuchs and imperial guards behind him to wait where they were.

Everyone accepted the order and did not choose to continue to follow. They knew that this was the palace arsenal, and it was impossible for His Majesty to encounter any danger. It could be regarded as the safest place in the entire palace, and even within the territory of Wei Dynasty.

Wei Yunyi, on the other hand, walked forward with his feet up, walked to the golden stone gate, and then stretched out his hand.

Well, it's very heavy, very heavy.

Even though he had reached the ninth level of martial arts yesterday.

But I found that no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't push the door open...

It's over, how can I start practicing martial arts when I can't even get through the door?

Wei Yunyi stood there, a little embarrassed, and seemed to be looking for something.

Squeak~

But that's just at this time.

The heavy gold and stone door of Wuge opened.
