Joy of Life: I am a Han Dynasty succubus, and I rebel from the beginning

Chapter 157: Lin Ruofu and Emperor Qing reconcile? Zhang Liang celebrates Liu Hong's imprisonment
When Fan Xian heard that there were warriors, his eyes became even dimmer.

He punched the pillar and spoke in hatred.

"How despicable! Do you think you can't win the argument and you want to kill someone?"

I don't know whether he is talking about Emperor Qing or the eldest princess.

Liu Hong glanced at Fan Xian.

If you are reading the novel version, it is actually similar to these two.

In the palace late at night, the imperial study was brightly lit with candles, the flames kept flickering, and it seemed a little eerie.

"Your Majesty, this time the East Factory has arrested more than 400 officials who committed crimes, and has occupied a large area of ​​​​houses as temporary cells."

"It's really a good thing for them that they didn't get to experience the real prison."

Emperor Qing was obviously disgusted with these officials who had always been against him.

But this is not the main point, the subject changed.

"How's the Princess doing?"

Eunuch Hou immediately knelt on the spot, his voice trembling.

"Your Majesty! The Junshan Society has more than 500 warriors in Beijing, and almost all of them were wiped out. Except for some seventh- and eighth-rank masters who barely escaped, the rest are dead."

Emperor Qing's expression changed instantly.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

"These are more than 500 warriors, not more than 500 steamed buns. Unless the army is mobilized, who can destroy all of them in Kyoto?"

For a moment, Emperor Qing was stunned. It seemed that not only the army but also Chen Pingping's Supervisory Council could be used.

There are countless assassination experts in the Sixth Department of the Supervisory Commission. What if I don’t trust Chen Pingping this time?

Otherwise, the Supervisory Commission should be called in to take action.

"Your Majesty, it was Minister Liu who ordered the city defense army to arrest all the officials who opposed him taking the reward today and bring them to the Ministry of Justice. These Junshan Society members just happened to meet each other."

Eunuch Hou was sweating like beans, and large chunks of sweat fell to the ground.

"Liu Hong?"

This time it was Emperor Qing's turn to feel puzzled. It was rare that he hadn't lost his temper in recent days.

Something is wrong! Liu Hong cut himself off from all officials and could only rely on me. How could he have the courage to go against me?

What's more, are the members of the Junshan Society so stupid? They bumped into the city defense army quite cleverly.

Without the secret help of the Overwatch Council, Emperor Qing would have torn his own head off.

"Today, Master Fan entered Minister Liu's residence. I heard that there was a big quarrel, and Minister Liu finally got so angry that he mobilized his troops."

Eunuch Hou gritted his teeth and told everything without caring that there were spies from the Censorate in the palace.

"No wonder, no wonder, everything can be sorted out now."

Emperor Qing lay on the couch, his expression returning to his usual calm state.

The reason why he was so angry today was because he didn't believe that Lin Ruofu alone had such a great influence.

There must be someone behind it.

Now there is finally some clue, and this old dog Chen Pingping dare not oppose him.

But this guy Fan Xian dares!

"Hahaha... all you monsters and demons, come out to me. I will show you who is the master of Qing Kingdom."

Emperor Qing gently picked up the arrow on the table and applied a little force with his fingers.

The arrowhead made of refined iron looked like a grain of rice in Emperor Qing's hand and changed its shape easily.

It’s a pity that no one in the imperial study saw this shocking scene.

The only living person, Eunuch Hou, had his head still buried in the ground.

There has been a lot of panic in Kyoto these days, and the officials, who were originally very angry, are now silent.

Emperor Qing sent the East Factory to arrest people directly without going through the Censorate, and Liu Hong also disregarded the laws of Daqing and arrested political enemies.

They simply disregard the law.

It’s a pity that there are not many people who dare to stand out.

Lin Ruofu, who had been trying to confront Emperor Qing, now acted like a coward and didn't say a word.

It was as if the matter had just passed.

The prime minister kept his position and the emperor saved his face.

Only this group of officials became victims again.

After the fear, countless flames burned in his chest again.

They didn't violate any of Qing Kingdom's laws, but they arrested people for no reason. What's going on?
Fan Xian once again submitted a memorial to the emperor, impeaching Liu Hong for abusing his power and attacking his political enemies. This time, only a few officials agreed.

The prime minister also submitted a memorial requesting the termination of all Liu Hong's official positions in Beijing to reassure all officials.

In fact, Lin Ruofu and Emperor Qing started a secret meeting, which resulted in a dignified exit.

Emperor Qing's expression finally turned from gloomy to bright, and he looked at the memorial with a smile.

Yuan Hongdao knelt on the ground, waiting for Emperor Qing's final decision.

"That's great. I'll make some concessions. Liu Hong's position as deputy garrison commander of the capital and right assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice will be revoked. I can even put him in jail."

"As long as the Prime Minister calms down, one Liu Hong is nothing. I am willing to sacrifice ten Liu Hongs."

Emperor Qing received Lin Ruofu's assurance, and he was in a very good mood, with his smile becoming even more intense.

Yuan Hongdao could only think in his heart, "Your Majesty! You were tricked by Lin Xiang and Liu Hong, don't you know it?"

However, there was a stern warning from Chen Pingping of the Supervisory Yuan.

In the end, Yuan Hongdao became mute and could not utter a word.

"Let Minister Lin get ready! He has been with me for so many years, I am a little reluctant to let him go."

After saying this, Emperor Qing wiped away the non-existent tears from the corners of his eyes and spoke in an extremely hypocritical manner.

It was originally thought that this impeachment of Liu Hong would fall on deaf ears and might even cause Emperor Qing to become furious.

Unexpectedly, the palace acted very quickly this time, and immediately the East Factory men came to Liu Hong's residence as the Minister of the Court.

Conveying Emperor Qing’s will.

"Liu Hong is arrogant and domineering. He abuses his power, frames his political enemies, and puts all officials in dire straits. I cannot tolerate this anymore!"

"From now on, Liu Hong will be stripped of his position as deputy garrison commander of the capital and right assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice, and will be sent to the East Factory prison. No mistakes!"

After the young eunuch in the palace announced the imperial edict, he did nothing.

Faced with the 350 fully armed guards in the Minister's mansion who were as fierce as wolves and tigers.

These Dongchang thugs didn't even dare to move, let alone take Liu Hong into jail.

"My Lord, we can get away with this time."

Zhang Liang was in a very happy mood. Being removed from his official position and sent to prison was no big deal.

As long as he remains the general of Qianlongwan camp and does not lose his position as Peibo, Liu Hong will be forgiven for a little while.

When the struggle broke out, Zhang Liang was worried, after all, Liu Hong had directly intervened.

If he were discovered, he would probably face the wrath of Emperor Qing.

Now that he's in prison, whatever happens in the future will have nothing to do with Liu Hong. Maybe he can even gild his reputation!

"What subordinate wants their boss to go to jail?"

Liu Hong laughed and shook his head, feeling a little relieved.

Pushing open the door of the study, Fan Ruoruo waited quietly in the courtyard.

"Will anything happen?"

Fan Ruoruo's voice was cold and her rationality was not affected by Liu Hong's imprisonment.

Liu Hong shook his head, hugged Fan Ruoruo, and left laughing.

"What can happen to me? Others are up and down, but I am up, down, up and up!"

In Fan Ruoruo's impression, Liu Hong has always been such a confident person.

Fan Ruoruo shook her head and prepared to go into Liu Hong's study while he was away.

Unexpectedly, the gentle young man bowed to her, and then Zhang Liang quickly closed the study door.

Fan Ruoruo's face turned ugly.

"Sir, they want to take you to the East Factory prison! This must be a forged imperial edict."

Ji Xin looked excited, pointing the long sword in his hand at the group of Dongchang men.

The eunuchs were so frightened that they retreated one after another.

"Stop! If the king wants me to die, I have to die! Since your majesty has given the order, I will obey it."

Liu Hong frowned and scolded the guards beside him.

"Grandfather, you are worrying too much! You are the founder of our East Factory. You are the one who brought us prosperity and wealth. How dare we attack you?"

The head of the East Factory had a flattering smile on his face.

It seemed that they were the ones who were arrested, not Liu Hong.
