After walking a long way, Hu Hai scratched his head and said, "Lin Ze, why do you feel that this matter was handled carelessly? Don't we want to use someone to establish our authority? Why did you let it go so easily?"
Lin Ze shook his head: "Then Li Gang is just a small role, but Li Si and even Fusu are behind him. Young Master still needs to do a lot of things. After this incident, if Li Si no longer supports Fusu, Young Master still thinks it is a light let go?"
"
Hu Hai's eyes lit up: "Then what should we do?"
"Master, please enter the palace as soon as possible and report this matter to Emperor Qin, but you have to put it in another way. Let me teach you." After finishing speaking, Lin Ze whispered a few words in Hu Hai's ear.
Hu Hai's eyes were bright and he nodded repeatedly. Lin Ze was really full of bad ideas.
Lin Ze then said to Huang Banban: "I feel wronged that Eunuch Huang has been hiding in Ganquan Palace these days and does not want to come out. The store matter will be put aside for now, and we will wait until the young master has finished dealing with it, so as not to be caught by the black guards."
Huang Banban naturally had no objection. After all, he ordered the killing of the Li family member, which made the young master appear passive.
…
In the Yangxin Hall, Hu Hai bowed politely: "My son, I pay homage to my father."
Emperor Qin was surprised and said: "Hu Hai, why do you have time to come see me today?"
Hu Hai said sheepishly: "I would like to inform my father that I made a small mistake and am here to apologize."
Emperor Qin laughed and scolded: "You bastard, tell me what mistake you made."
Hu Hai stuck out his tongue at Emperor Qin, pretending to be cute and said: "That's it, didn't Lu Chunqiu offend his father? The son was also very angry, thinking that even if he died, he couldn't let it go easily, so he took him with him
I joined a group of people to collect his property, hoping to vent my anger on my father."
"I collected a lot smoothly at the beginning. Today when I went to collect money from a bank, the shopkeeper dared to speak rudely. I was so angry that I killed him. Who knew that the shopkeeper was actually a member of Prime Minister Li's tribe? Afterwards, he was also killed by a man named Li Gang.
The commanding officers of the black-clad guards have been surrounding us for a long time."
"My son thought that he had killed the wrong person, so he came to plead guilty to his father."
Emperor Qin looked at Hu Hai with a half-smile but not a smile: "Do you really want to vent your anger on my behalf?"
Hu Hai had a firm look on his face: "Of course I am venting my anger on my father. If you dare to offend your father, you should confiscate your family and exterminate your clan. My father is benevolent and does not kill everyone, but it is still necessary to confiscate your family."
Emperor Qin sneered: "Okay, I understand. If there is nothing else, you can go down."
Hu Hai's eyes rolled quickly and he said quickly: "Of course I still have something to do."
"Say it."
Hu Hai looked hesitant and hesitated to speak.
"Why, you still don't dare to say it in front of me?"
Hu Hai gritted his teeth and said: "After all, the person who died was a member of Prime Minister Li's clan, and he was once a court official. I am afraid that he will grab Qin Lu and attack me. Please protect me from my father."
Emperor Qin interrupted: "Okay, Li Si isn't that petty yet, I'll go back and talk to him."
Hu Hai whispered: "Prime Minister Li may not care about killing his own clan members, but after all, he has always supported Brother Fusu, and he may be more concerned about attacking his sons."
Emperor Qin looked at Hu Hai's leaving figure, thoughtfully.
After Hu Hai left the palace, he immediately found Lin Ze: "I have told you everything you told me. Is this really useful?"
Lin Ze laughed and said, "That's good. Don't worry, Young Master. If the Li family just gives up, it won't work. But they want to attack Young Master. What Young Master said today will be their fatal wound. Young Master, just wait patiently for a few days."
Hu Hai didn't know how serious he was.
…
One day later, Emperor Qin opened a memorial in the Hall of Yangxin, saying that it was Hu Hai's men who killed people in the street, refused to cooperate with the investigation, and even intended to order his men to attack the black-clad guards who were enforcing the law in Tingwei Mansion.
When Emperor Qin saw the signature, he saw that it was a commander named Li Gang from the Tingwei Mansion.
The wording is very strong, indicating that Qin's laws are the foundation of the country, and even those under the prince's sect must not trample on them easily, and hope that your majesty will uphold justice.
Emperor Qin clapped his hands, and Da Si Ming immediately appeared in front of Emperor Qin and bowed to obey his orders.
Emperor Qin threw the memorial to him and said: "Check for me, who is this Li Gang, and who is the child of the Li family who died?"
After giving the instructions, Emperor Qin continued to review the memorial, and soon got another letter criticizing Hu Hai, but it said that he was a dignified son and allowed his subordinates to rob other people's property on the street. When Emperor Qin saw it, he saw that it was a memorial written by an imperial official.
Then he pulled out several more memorials, all written by different officials. Emperor Qin's expression was gloomy and he threw these memorials aside.
Da Siming appeared in front of Emperor Qin again and explained the matter again.
Emperor Qin's face softened: "So, Hu Hai didn't want to make things worse, but chose to give in. On the contrary, that Li Gang was a little unyielding?"
Da Siming hesitated for a moment and nodded. His son died. This kind of reaction is considered normal.
Emperor Qin waved his hand to ask him to leave, and said to the young eunuch outside the palace: "Come, go and invite the Prime Minister."
Soon Li Si arrived at the Yangxin Hall. Emperor Qin instructed the young eunuch to bring these memorials to Li Si and said, "I wonder what the prime minister thinks of this matter?"
Li Si took it and turned it over a few times. He thought about it a few times and his face was a little solemn. This matter is a bit tricky. If you don't do it right, His Majesty will misunderstand.
In the end, Li Si decided to deal with it impartially, and saluted Emperor Qin: "Wei Chen believes that killing is a small matter, but Qin's law is a big matter. In order to maintain the majesty of Qin's law, he should be punished."
Emperor Qin couldn't deny it and asked: "Then what punishment does the Prime Minister think should be given?"
Li Si said solemnly: "Qin Law stipulates that murderers will be killed, and accomplices will be exiled in the most serious case, and whipped in the lightest case."
A sneer appeared at the corner of Emperor Qin's mouth: "Really? Are you sure the Prime Minister has no selfish motives? Or is it really as Hu Hai said, even if it is to help Su, he should be more honest?"
Li Si's face changed drastically and he fell to the ground: "Weijun dare not have selfish motives. The laws of Qin are indeed the foundation of the Qin Dynasty and are also the rules of the Qin Dynasty. How can a small official dare to break the rules easily?"
Emperor Qin said with a hint of ridicule: "You are really my good prime minister. You are also a court official. How can you easily conclude the case without investigating the matter? Why don't you tell me why the owner of the Lu family's property is
Was it you, a member of the Li family, or did Lu Chunqiu entrust his property to you before his death?"
Li Si finally changed his expression when he heard this: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I am ignorant and do not know people well. I have disappointed Your Majesty."
Emperor Qin snorted coldly: "I think you are pretending to be confused because you understand. I'm not dead yet, so it's not your turn to please Fusu. If you really want to please him, why don't you wait until I'm dead?"
Li Si was dripping with cold sweat, knelt on the ground, and said repeatedly: "I have absolutely no intention of doing this. Please give your Majesty a holy judgment."
After a while, Emperor Qin showed a tired look on his face: "Go down and check it out."
Li Sicai stood up to thank him as if he was relieved, and walked out of the hall. The breeze blew, and he felt a chill in his heart.
