Chapter 132

Chapter 132

Yin Yuan will not be taking this blame alone. The Emperor has never been good-tempered so he directly threw the evidences at him. If you want to do bad things, sure, be smart and do it secretly and discreetly. Who else is involved with you?

Yin Yuan was stunned. After reading what His Majesty threw over, his face turned pale. His first reaction was to defend himself, saying that he had no idea.

In reality, he really didnt know anything as he didnt personally take care of the affairs in his farm. As for the undocumented household, it is nothing new and everyone turns a blind eye to it. He is an adopted heir and didnt create new tricks after inheriting his title!

Yin Yuan never thought that the people below him would commit murder to prevent the stateless from gaining citizenship! Whats more unexpected is that so many at Hu County is united and uses the simplest and crudest way to put an end to this matter!

He immediately admitted that he is guilty of not managing his household affairs well and subtly stated that the farms in Hu County were all managed by Yin Kaishans men. Therefore he didnt ask too many questions, for fear that they will think that he is using his title against them to show off. Anyway, he is weak, pitiful and helpless, and really knows nothing about it.

His Majestys face was gloomy.

This kingdom belongs to the Li family but his imperial decree is not being implemented. Those sitting or kneeling in front of him have their own selfish motives, what more the aristocratic families outside. In times like this the Emperor feels that he needs more talent who are not related to the aristocratic families.

But you cant rush things.

Li Er listened calmly then asked Tang Jian to send men to follow Yin Yuan to deal with the matter properly. Spit out all the fields and hidden families. Punish those who needs to be punished according to the law. If anyone opposes to it, we deal with them like criminals too.

As for whether Yin Yuan will be punished or whether the selection of the 24 heroes will change, His Majesty didnt say anything. Li Er probably wanted to wait until everything is settled.

Yin Yuan looked bitter and could only obediently follow Tang Jian to uncover his familys illegal activities.

His Majesty did not hide news about this incident and news about the Yin family being interrogated quickly spread throughout Changan. Those with better information found out that this matter is related to Li Yuanying. Less than half a month in Hu County and he uncovers an unjust case involving several lives! The main culprit was the heir of Yin Kaishan, one of the 24 heroes!

Now everyone cant help but to think much deeper.

Is there really a coincidence? How could Li Yuanying encounter such a big incident as soon as he visit? Was it arranged by His Majesty? Thinking deeper, why did His Majesty do this? Could it be that he is targeting the 24 heroes and wants them to confess their hidden assets?

No wonder His Majesty sent Li Yuanying to the Imperial Academy and for internship. He was just waiting for him to strike!

Li Yuanying had already guessed that his older brother will not spare Xu Jingzong. He was wondering what the new person in charge will be like and whether hes someone that is easy to get along with. Suddenly the Emperor came up with such an instruction and it was unexpected but a good one. If hes now in charged that would mean that he doesnt have to listen to others and can make decisions on everything!

Yuanying replied immediately: Just wait, I will reply to the Emperors letter right away. Send my reply back to him.

The emissary responded with a smile.

Li Yuanying happily told his friends about the news and began writing a letter to His Majesty. Last time, he scolded His Majesty in his letter and this time he wrote praises, saying that the Emperor is wise and powerful. You make such great decisions, no wonder you are the Emperor! Among so many brothers, the Emperor is the best! He has nothing to repay such a good brother and can only find out all the most delicious things in Hu County and bring them all back to him!

Li Yuanying wrote nearly a thousand words sincerely and every sentence was flattery. He stuffed the letter into a bulging envelope and told the emissary: Remember to ask Lord Brother to read it. Dont just throw it away. I wrote it seriously this time!

The emissary thought: Then in the past you just write things simply? However, he did not dare to say anything out loud. Just look at Li Yuanyings current achievements. Xu Jingzong is nothing but just a county magistrate. But take a look at the others: Prince of Wei, Li Tai of Wei is someone the Emperor visits daily, is he not favored enough. ? Against Li Yuanying, Prince Wei lost! Yin Kaishan passed away early and was still selected as one of the 24 heroes. Isnt the Yin family strong enough? Against Li Yuanying, the Yin family lost!

You mess with anyone, but never Prince Teng!

He could only reply obediently: I will make sure this gets delivered into the hands of his Majesty

Li Yuanying nodded.

After he left, Yuanying strangely told Wei Shu: Why is he so attentive to me? I dont recall seeing him much and I havent given him much reward! Based on his life experience, if you want people to work for you, you need to reward them handsomely with money. The gold beads he used to carry with him is solely for rewarding servants in the palace!

Wei Shu also couldnt understand. Normally those who serves the Emperor are not submissive and attentive to others. If they accidentally leaked the Emperors words, they would lose their heads! So for the sake of their own heads, they should abide by their duties and say no more.

Maybe he knows that His Majesty values you, so he is more attentive. (Wei Shu)

Li Yuanying was just a little surprised. He nodded without going into details.
