Pei Xu was not willing to believe that the so-called Yue family secrets asked by Du Bailou from the suspect were these trivial matters, but what he was even more eager to know was that what happened to his family fell into the control of the Northern Yan people.

It was only then that he remembered that Du Bailou and the guard of the old man Yue, Yueying, were old acquaintances, and was once a worshiper of the Yu family in Jiangling. He couldn't help but feel even more angry and thought that this must be Du Bailou intends to return to protect the Yue family.

Mr. Yu has always been in a sluggish sense of existence since before. Until Du Bailou talked about the Yue family, he seemed a little disappointed when he saw the emperor. The fat man and Li Chongming's uncle and nephew were also the same. He laughed and said, "It seems that the old husband is a model of the officialdom. Even trivial matters such as son hiding private money will be reported to Jin Aqi seriously. Unknown to those people from Northern Yan to find out what secrets Zhao's husband was secretly?"

Seeing Zhao Qingya smiled slightly, Du Bailou said seriously: "Someone found out that a gatekeeper of the Zhao Mansion accepted a gift from other officials, and it was a thousand guan. But I happened to hear that Mrs. Zhao had rectified the order in the mansion a while ago, and many slaves who had accepted bribes were sold out. They also donated money to Princess Dongyang's Shantang in the name of the imperial court."

When Zhao Qingya heard the first half of the words, he narrowed his eyes slightly, but when the second half, he smiled and stretched out his whole palm, stretched out his five fingers and said, "The job of a gatekeeper is not hard work or hard work, so I allow the gatekeeper to collect a certain amount of hard money, whether it is money or local products, no more than two chunks a day. Since someone has passed it, then he will naturally be punished!"

He said this and sighed deeply: "Two stakes a day, and sixty stakes a month, which is very much. If it were more, how could the business relationship between scholars, farmers, industry and business?"

Seeing that Zhao Qingya was also easily passing the test, Pei Xu felt that his heart had just been relieved, and then he laughed and said, "It seems that the traitors in Beiyan may not be effective. Our officials in the dynasty have their own ethics, and they are futile to investigate their insults."

Yue Qianqiu smiled and asked slowly, "Mr. Du, now only Master Pei is left. Who doesn't know that our Master Pei has been honest and impartial since he started his official career. He should have no handle to arrest him, right?"

Knowing that Yue Qianqiu was deliberately saying beautiful words, Pei Xu couldn't help but snorted coldly, with contempt and disdain on his face: "The famous Pei family has a huge family and a huge family income, so naturally there is no need to be like those who have never seen money, just thinking about filling their pockets."

When he said this, Pei Xu felt relieved, but when he saw a pair of smiling eyes, he remembered that Zhao Qingya and Yue Taichang were all "trivial" money problems. But he thought to himself that the Pei family had hundreds of years of inheritance and the family had officials for generations, so he comforted himself in his heart that there were no major mistakes between the Zhao Yue families, and he could not have it.

Du Bailou glanced at Master Yu who was so careless. Seeing that his face was relaxed, his eyes showed a clear aggressiveness. Thinking about the past many years, the Yu family was also good to him. Although he did not intend to mess with Pei Xu on purpose, since he really discovered a case that he could not tolerate, whether for the Yu family, the Yue family, or the annoying behavior of Pei Xu, he could not let Pei Xu fool him casually.

Therefore, in the highly anticipated eyes, he said lightly: "Pei Xiangye himself may be really spotless, but the Pei family is not so clear. A guy I tried to confess that Pei Xiangye's younger brother took a fancy to an actor. After asking for it, he forced the troupe's headmaster to death. The rest of the people were framed and imprisoned in the name of stealing and forcing the actor to sell himself as a slave."

If it weren't for Wu Renyuan's previous example, the Chief Criminal Department of the Ministry of Justice had set dead rules over the years and was not allowed to monitor the ministers, the head-in-chiefs were even more afraid of being reported and violated the ban, so they simply stood up and ignored the ministers' family affairs. Such a thing would have been exposed long ago!

True cliché...

Yue Qianqiu sneered in his heart. Unless he was clear-headed and clear-headed, like Grandpa Yue or Zhao Qingya, who was distracted and cared about his family and had a strong prestige, he could barely save those selfish thoughts in the house. Otherwise, how many truly promising people are there in the high-ranking family of high-ranking officials and nobles? How many mediocre people can suppress their desires?

"Nonsense, this is slander!" Pei Xu's face turned pale when he was exposed in front of the emperor that his brother had done something ugly. But before he could continue to argue, he heard a dong dong sound, but he saw that the emperor did not lightly and re-painted the handrail.

"It is unknown whether it is true or false. What's the use of clamoring? If Jin Aqi, who was captured by Qianqiu Design this time, is really the confidant of Lou Ying, the deputy envoy of the Northern Yanqiu Safari Department, then unless this Lou Ying is captured in one fell swoop, all the ministers should be prepared. Du Qing just said only three things. If Lou Ying had planned for six years, they might have found thirty, three hundred, or even three thousand!"

Seeing that Pei Xu's face turned pale, Zhao Qingya and Old Master Yue had both serious expressions, but Master Yu seemed to want to speak but stopped. The emperor waved his hand first, then looked at Shen Zheng and said, "Shen Zheng, since you have confessed your guilt, I have to deal with you with the law of the country. After the Wude Department's failure to monitor this, I have the responsibility and you can't refuse to blame."

When Shen Zheng heard that the three prime ministers were also investigated hard, he knew that he had no luck. At this time, his forehead was already tightly pressed against the ground, and his voice was dry: "I confessed my guilt..."

He had just read these three very reluctant words, but he heard someone coughing suddenly. If he was in a court meeting, this would definitely be a behavior of losing his manners. However, in discussions like the Chuigong Hall, the records of the living sects would be much looser, but not everyone could be so presumptuous. Even he could hardly help but want to turn his head to see the coughing person.

Because that's not someone else, it's Yue Qianqiu!

Before everyone, the fat man said angrily: "The best Xiaojiu, are you old and your throat broken? If you want to speak, just say something, cough, what are you doing? How can you develop this bad habit?"

Yue Qianqiu was brewing his emotions, but he was interrupted by the fat man like this. He was furious: "It was such a cold day last night, and I was rushing to go and fight again. After the fight, I had to clean up the aftermath to soothe people's hearts. I felt uncomfortable after one night. Can't I cough twice?"

"Then you don't cough sooner or later, but you just coughed when Lord Shen confessed?" The fat man realized that he was cheated by Yue Qianqiu last night, and he seemed to have lost while fighting with Li Chongming. Naturally, he was very dissatisfied. Thinking that he and Yue Qianqiu were all well-known rivals, he simply took advantage of the situation and said, "Lord Shen has already confessed his guilt. Be generous and don't keep your finger on the past."

Chen Zheng didn't expect that His Highness, who had always obviously disliked him, would actually protect him. After being stunned, he couldn't help but feel a little regretful about the fat man because he wanted to avoid suspicion. He always smiled at the fat man and kept a distance. However, immediately afterwards, he ushered in something that he had even expected.

"Who said I would keep my back on the past? I want to say that Lord Shen is very unfairly taking the blame this time. If he took all the blame, Bei Yan would be celebrating. Why?"

Yue Qianqiu ignored Chen Zheng's unbelievable stiff face and bowed deeply to the emperor: "Emperor, I have always been a matter of fact. Xu Houcong, the Shengong Sect and others defected, but pursued the elders and disciples of the Shengong Sect who came to the capital to participate in the re-revision of the martial arts record. I think it is inappropriate; now some people pretend to be people from the Wude Department to do something wrong, and Lord Shen has suffered it alone, and I also think it is inappropriate."

The next moment, he straightened his waist and said very seriously: "It is difficult to ask Jin Aqi for confessions, but it is easy to ask several people from Lord Du, so I just ask Lord Shen to take responsibility together. The case files that Jin Aqi sorted out have probably been given to President Lou Ying long ago. With Lord Shen, he will find out more of the inside story from those people. It should be easier to turn back to the court to deal with this matter."

"As for those officials in their hands, Lou Ying-chan will naturally have two uses. One is to hold the handle as a threat to force others to hear or say a few good words to Beiyan at a critical moment. The other is, maybe the Emperor of Beiyan will send a special letter of nationality, which is called to identify the virtuous and unworthy for our dynasty?"

When he heard the last sentence, he was silent in the hall. Pei Xu, who had just thought Yue Qianqiu was pretending to be generous and pleaded for Chen Zheng, felt as if he was pouring a basin of ice water on his head, and his whole body was cold.

It is said that the Emperor of Northern Yan has always been a vengeful person. Before, Liu Jingxuan and Dai Jinglan returned to the south with four families. It is said that Emperor of Northern Yan cut off many of his heads and still couldn't vent his anger, otherwise there would be no such thing as the God Bow Sect defector. Although the situation Yue Qianqiu said was the worst, Emperor of Northern Yan might really do it!

Chen Zheng also took a breath. He thought Yue Qianqiu had changed his temperament and pleaded for him. It turned out that Yue Qianqiu was simply unkind and gave him all the chores to identify information!

Otherwise, if the Emperor of Northern Yan really brought that kind of thing, even if the emperor could pretend to be generous and burn it, how could the people of Northern Yan not keep a copy, and then publicize that the court is tolerating and raising traitors and sheltering officials? If the people of Northern Yan do not let the people of Northern Yan take the lead, the court will have to wave its own sword and endure the pain and cut off the cancer one by one.

But how many people will the sword swing offend?

Han Yu, who also realized this, felt lingering fear and threw a gratitude at Yue Qianqiu.
