Chapter 113 The Fan Yang Lu family is about to die!
"Report to Your Majesty"
Fang Xuanling cupped his hands and said: "So far, more than 20,000 books have been printed."
"Everything has been sealed according to His Majesty's request."
"And there were more than 4,000 volumes secretly sold to major aristocratic families, and a total of more than 1 million yuan was recovered."
"good!"
His Majesty Li Er was delighted and said: "Xuanling, you did a good job this time. Now I have another important task to entrust to you!"
"Your Majesty, please tell me, I will definitely live up to your expectations!" Fang Xuanling said solemnly.
"Have you heard about the recent incident involving the Fan Yang Lu family?"
Fang Xuanling nodded and said, "I'm afraid the Lu family will capsize in the gutter this time."
His Majesty Li Er continued to ask: "What is the current public opinion situation in Fan Yang?"
"Almost 80% of the people have already learned about this matter, and it has even caused several small-scale chaos." Fang Xuanling replied cautiously.
At this point, he already understood what His Majesty Li Er wanted him to do!
Could it be that the person who made Fan Yanglu's face disgraced was sent by His Majesty?!
However, where else could such a huge amount of paper come from other than my Fang family’s workshop?!
Could it be...
Thinking of this, Fang Xuanling's heart palpitated and a cold sweat broke out from behind!
There is indeed a mysterious big hand behind His Majesty's back controlling everything!
"Xuanling?"
Seeing that his face was pale and slightly sweating, His Majesty Li Er asked with concern: "Why do you suddenly look so bad and feel unwell?"
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am just infected with Fengsai and it is not a serious problem!" Fang Xuanling said reluctantly.
"Well, okay then."
His Majesty Nai Er nodded and said: "I can only rest assured if you handle this matter!"
"You secretly send the book from Chang'an to Fan Yang."
"Sold them all for ten cents!"
"At the same time, a papermaking workshop was opened in Fanyang."
"I want to see every common person in Fan Yang be able to read within half a month!"
"Yes, I obey the order!"
Fang Xuanling replied with a trembling voice.
Before Fang Xuanling could react, His Majesty Li Er continued to make shocking remarks!
"Also, I will propose the imperial examination system again tomorrow morning."
"When the time comes, please help me carefully observe that the officials with the greatest opposition are those from aristocratic families!"
"Xuanling."
His Majesty Li Er asked in a deep voice: "Do you remember what I said?"
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I have already remembered this in my heart!" Fang Xuanling said respectfully, but there were more and more beads of sweat on his face!
…
When Fang Xuanling left the Imperial Study Room, his legs could not help but tremble.
Soon, Li Erbi ordered the 5,000 Zuo Jinwu guards stationed in Chang'an to quickly launch the operation in cooperation with Fang Xuanling.
Under their escort, carloads of books set off from Chang'an and headed towards Fan Yang as fast as possible.
His Majesty Li Er's purpose this time is very clear, which is to shock!
If Fan Yang and the Lu family dare to interfere in any way, they will be killed without mercy!
His Majesty Li Er has made up his mind!
Even if his head is all over the ground and blood flows into rivers when the time comes, the Fan Yang Lu family must be completely suppressed!
Early the next morning, in Tai Chi Hall, all the ministers came to court early.
His Majesty Li Er sat on the dragon throne with awe-inspiring momentum.
Today, everyone can feel the difference of His Majesty Li Er.
Thinking of the Fan Yanglu family who had caused a lot of commotion recently, they had already guessed something in their minds.
In the main hall, there was a deathly silence, and no one dared to speak.
"Everyone, do you have anything important to do today?" His Majesty Li Er asked in a deep voice.
The ministers all lowered their heads and thought about different things, but no one spoke.
After a while, Lu Qing, the official of the Ministry of Rites, took a step forward, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, a strange thing happened recently around Guanzhong."
"I don't know who posted the notice without the permission of the government!"
“The quantity is huge and can be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys!”
"This move has had a very bad impact on the people!"
His Majesty Li Er looked at him with burning eyes and asked: "Is this happening? So what is written on the notice?"
Lu Qing was a little frightened by Li Erxia's look, but he still had to bite the bullet and replied: "Reply to Your Majesty, that notice is full of words that slander Fan Yang's Lu family!"
Fang Xuanling, who already knew the inside story, was looking at him with sympathy.
How dare you say that?!
Your Majesty was preparing to arrest you, but you stuck your neck out.
Sure enough, His Majesty Li Er's eyes lit up after hearing what he said!
I was worried that I didn’t have a good excuse to attack, but unexpectedly the person involved showed up at my door!
"Have you brought the notice?" His Majesty Li Er asked.
Lu Qing handed over the notice he had prepared.
In order to make the handwriting clearer, he also copied it again.
I'm afraid he didn't even think of it, this would only make him die faster!
Li Er took the notice, held it in his hand, and pretended to read it.
After a while, His Majesty Li Er raised his head and said, "There are quite a few crimes mentioned here!"
"Have your Lu family ever behaved like this?"
"His Majesty!"
Hearing this, Lu Qing was shocked and shouted: "It's all a false accusation!"
"The deeds of Qingchuan County Magistrate Lu's family have nothing to do with my Fan Yang Lu's family!"
"None of what the notice said is true!"
"How could I, the Lu family, do such a tragic thing?!"
"Your Majesty, please investigate clearly!"
"Purely a false accusation?"
His Majesty Li Er frowned slightly, then smiled and said: "I believe you!"
"The Fan Yang family is a famous family, and I don't believe that they would do such a thing that is worse than an animal!"
However, before Lu Qing could be happy for long, he heard His Majesty Li Er say: "However, everything must be based on evidence!"
"In order to clear your name, Fan Yang Lu, I decided to investigate this matter thoroughly and then tell the world."
"In this way, everyone in the world will know that the Fanyang Lu family is an upright and aristocratic family!"
"Do you have any objection?"
Hearing this, Lu Qing lost his footing and fell directly to the ground.
His Majesty Li Er actually said that he would conduct a thorough investigation of the Lu family in front of the ashamed ministers?
Although the Lu family has never done anything mentioned in the notice, it has been able to stand firm for so many years. How could it be possible that they have not taken any action in private?
Looking at His Majesty Li Er's cold eyes, Lu Qing shivered, his legs were shaking so much that he couldn't stand up, sweat was pouring out of his head, his lips moved, but he couldn't even fart.
His Majesty Li Er’s meaning is already obvious!
He wants to thoroughly investigate the Fan Yang Lu family in front of the people all over the world, and all their affairs will be made public!
In this way, Fan Yanglu will completely fall from the rank of detective and become a street rat that everyone scolds!
