"You are a dignified minister of Dali Temple, the official in charge of one of the highest departments of punishment in the Great Qin Empire. You can only describe it as managing everything on a daily basis. For a mere report, you didn't even conduct a basic investigation. You directly brought people to the house to search the house and arrest people.
, I asked you if you would file a case. You said the situation was urgent and you didn’t care. I asked you where the whistleblower was. You said he had disappeared... Do you believe these words!?"
Su Jinpa suddenly stood up, his eyes were colder than ever before, and said: "Speak!"
As soon as he spoke, Bian Guanyue's body could not help but tremble.
He was frightened, truly frightened from the bottom of his heart.
He didn't expect Su Jinpa to be here, let alone that Su Jinpa had such abilities and means, leaving him completely speechless and unable to deal with it.
At this point, Bian Guanyue understood that any struggle was useless. Under such a confrontation, no matter what she said, it would not stand up to scrutiny and verification. She could only lose her last bit of dignity by sophistry.
Lying on the ground, Bian Guanyue knocked her head to the ground, making a dull sound. At the same time, Bian Guanyue said in a choked tone: "This matter was all done by the official. I beg the Crown Princess to forgive the official family."
Xiao, they have nothing to do with these struggles. I am willing to use my humble life to appease the anger of the Crown Princess. I will shoulder all the responsibilities alone."
Su Jinpa looked at Bian Guanyue indifferently and said, "Can you afford it?"
"You should be well aware of the extent of the involvement behind this matter. It would be fine if you just sit back and watch, but since you have jumped in and made a choice, you will have to pay the price for your choice."
"Tell me who is behind your instigation and your family members, and I can make the decision and not be held accountable."
Bian Guanyue said in a trembling voice: "Princess, if the official had said so, the official's wife, children, and children would not be able to escape death."
Su Jinpa's eyes became colder and colder.
Once, in her eyes, these officials were definitely black sheep, but most of them should be kind. Even those black sheep should have maintained a minimum conscience, were greedy, and loved power.
Some are just that.
In her world, officialdom should be fairly clean.
But now, she suddenly discovered that officialdom is really the dirtiest quagmire in the world.
She believed that when Bian Guanyue first entered the political arena, he must have had ideals and ambitions, otherwise he would not have chosen the most difficult but most practical road to the imperial examination without taking shortcuts. You must know that too many parents like Bian Guanyue had such achievements.
The children in official positions all took shortcuts, but Bian Guanyue did not. This is enough to prove that Bian Guanyue was also very high-spirited and wanted to use his knowledge and ability to become a young man in the future.
But such people have been in the officialdom for decades, and when they get higher official positions, they lose their conscience.
Moreover, Su Jinpa knew very well that there were many, many, many more filthy and more thorough people than Bian Guanyue in the officialdom of the Qin Empire.
She suddenly understood what Li Chen had said unintentionally before, that the officialdom of Da Qin was rotten to the core. If he wanted to help the country, the first thing he had to do was to clean up the officialdom from beginning to end.
The first time he heard Li Chen's words, Su Jinpa felt that he was too violent and not a benevolent person.
But now, she can suddenly understand Li Chen. Some things are not that the king is unkind, but that the king cannot be kind. Only an extremely overbearing and tough king can suppress the greed and evil intentions of these officials.
