As soon as the two entered the study, the sharp-eyed Fan Ruoruo saw what Fan Xian was holding in his hand and immediately exclaimed in surprise.
"Ah! Beauty-enhancing fruit wine?"
"What?" Liu suddenly became alert.
She had tried some of the beauty-enhancing fruit wine that Fan Ruoruo had brought back before. It tasted very good and she was deeply impressed.
In particular, after drinking this wine, Liu felt much younger and immediately concluded that this wine really had the effect of beautifying and nourishing the skin.
So she had been thinking about it all the time, but Liu thought that this thing was very precious and didn't want to embarrass Ruoruo, so she never dared to speak up.
But I didn't expect to see it again today.
Seeing his aunt and Ruoruo so excited, Fan Xian hurriedly explained, "His Highness asked me to bring this back to drink.
This is beauty-enhancing fruit wine, you all know it.
This should be tea, His Highness said Ruoruo knows!"
"Ah! Exquisite Jade Tea?" Fan Ruoruo took a look and said delightedly, "Dad, Auntie, this is also a treasure unique to the Tang Palace. It is said to be a rare tea from the south. Drinking it can refresh the mind, enhance comprehension and memory, and the effect is very good!"
"Hiss, these are all good stuff!" (2) Fan Jian, as the Minister of Revenue, was shocked at this moment.
Whether it was Yangyuan wine, Yangyan fruit wine or Linglong jade tea, he had never seen them before.
Today I really opened my eyes.
"Brother, why did His Highness give our family so many good things?" Fan Ruoruo asked curiously.
Fan Xian smiled and said, "Of course it's because of you! His Highness said he can't give you a title for the time being, so he's very sorry and asked me to bring you some gifts.
His Highness said that these things will be provided to our family on a long-term basis, so we can drink as much as we want!"
"Ah!" When Fan Ruoruo heard this, she was suddenly shy and surprised. She couldn't stop smiling happily on her face, and her whole body was filled with joy.
Liu was also very happy.
She originally wanted to match Fan Ruoruo and Li Chengyuan, but she didn't expect the result to come so soon. This is a great joy.
In particular, the Third Prince was too generous.
If the beauty-enhancing fruit wine can be supplied for a long time, then she won’t have to worry about aging in the future.
When Liu thought about how drinking some fruit wine could improve her beauty, she smiled so happily that her eyes became numb.
At the same time, Liu also secretly decided that Ruoruo and the Third Prince must maintain a good relationship, and there must be no accidents in this marriage.
Fan Jian was also smiling. The family hadn't been so happy for a long time.
It’s a pity for Fan Jian that he had already finished his dinner.
Otherwise, I have to have a few drinks.
The family is so happy here that they seem to have forgotten everything.
There are not only them in this family, but also Fan Sizhe!
It’s a pity that Fan Sizhe, who had helped Fan Xian for half a night and a morning, was still sleeping soundly.
I didn’t catch any fun and didn’t get any benefits!
......
The next day.
Early in the morning, the atmosphere in Kyoto began to grow heavy.
First, two uninvited guests suddenly came to the door of the Ministry of Justice.
A man who claimed to be Zhuang Mohan's close follower came to surrender on Zhuang Mohan's behalf.
Another person who claimed to be the former lieutenant general of the city patrol who had escaped came to surrender.
This incident instantly alarmed the entire Ministry of Justice.
The Minister of Justice personally tried the case and handled it with special care.
Moreover, the Minister of Justice specifically ordered that the entire Ministry of Justice be sealed off. No one was allowed to go out until the case was concluded, not even a pigeon could fly out.
All of a sudden, the atmosphere in the entire Ministry of Justice became solemn.
.....
On the other side, Yan Ruohai and Zhu Ge from the Inspection Institute were also having a secret conversation.
In fact, Chen Pingping had already determined that Zhu Ge was Li Yunrui's accomplice, so he had already set a trap for him.
The pit is Yan Ruohai.
Following Chen Pingping's instructions, Yan Ruohai deliberately boycotted Chen Pingping on various occasions and even organized an assassination attempt on Chen Pingping.
In fact, this was a self-torture trick performed by Yan Ruohai in order to clean up the traitors in the Inspection Institute.
He had used this trick before to help Chen Pingping clean up a large number of traitors in the Inspection Institute.
He did the same thing this time, using this trick to deal with Zhuge.
He told Zhu Ge that he wanted to investigate the case in which the princess framed his son Yan Bingyun, and claimed that he had captured Zhuang Mohan's coachman and would send someone to pick him up for strict interrogation.
Then, because he didn't trust the people around him, he wanted to ask Zhuge to borrow people.
Zhu Ge was fooled. He was afraid that the princess would be exposed, so he took advantage of the situation and lent the person to Yan Ruohai.
After Yan Ruohai got the person, he immediately went out of the city to pick him up.
After he took over and left the city, he was surrounded by Zhuge's men as soon as he picked up the person.
Zhu Ge killed "Zhuang Mohan's coachman" and then wanted to kill Yan Ruohai to silence him.
Yan Ruohai took this opportunity to induce Zhu Ge to tell the truth.
Zhu Ge didn't fall for it and wanted to silence the witness.
As a result, at this time, Chen Pingping appeared with the Black Cavalry and shattered all of Zhuge's plans.
At this point, Zhuge finally gave up resistance and confessed all his thoughts.
"Dean, I have been in the Inspection Institute for many years. I used to be proud of my status, but gradually, I became afraid and worried.
The Censorate was not under the jurisdiction of the Six Ministries and recruited talented people.
There are both talented people in literature and martial arts, as well as eccentric people in the market.
It can be said that most of the elites of Qing Kingdom are under the command of the Inspection Institute.
With such a powerful force, once the Inspection Office rebels, who can stop it?
So after much thought, I decided that the safest thing would be to keep the Inspection Office under the control of the royal family.
So I took refuge with the Princess, the Dean. I, Zhuge, am dedicated to the Qing Kingdom and have no selfish motives at all!"
Zhuge is telling the truth.
He does have a heart that cares about the country and the people.
It’s a pity that he only has the desire to serve his country but lacks the talent to do so.
Moreover, he is only the host now and has no power to decide the future of the Inspection Institute.
It is not one's place to meddle in matters that are not within one's jurisdiction. To put it bluntly, this is an act of exceeding one's authority, self-aggrandizement, and overestimating one's own capabilities.
At the same time, his vision is also very poor. Although his starting point is good, he has not considered human nature and consequences. He is a typical example of high aspirations but low skills!
The most important thing is that he was from the Inspection Institute, but he became someone else's accomplice.
No matter how high-sounding his reasons are, it cannot change the fact that he is a traitor!
In short, he chose the wrong person in the wrong position, did the wrong thing, and caused serious consequences.
So people like Zhuge deserve to die!
And he really couldn't survive.
Chen Pingping is not a soft-hearted person. His reputation is earned by killing people with a butcher's knife.
It can be said that when Zhu Ge defected to Li Yunrui, he was destined to die soon.
In order to prove the fact that Li Yunrui colluded with Zhu Ge, Chen Pingping specially invited Hong Sixiang from the palace to "watch the show"!
In this way, even if Zhu Ge committed suicide, Li Yunrui would not be able to escape.
In the end, Chen Pingping agreed to Zhu Ge's suicide, which was considered to be a decent thing for him.
Hong Sixiang also brought the results back to the palace and reported to Emperor Qing.
The countdown to Li Yunrui's impending disaster has officially begun.
Chapter 164 Li Chengyuan's real killer move! Lin Ruofu enters the palace late at night!
Changxin Palace.
Li Yunrui stood under the pavilion, gazing at the palace scenery from afar, his heart filled with lofty sentiments.
This was the happiest moment for Li Yunrui since the evening banquet at the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests.
Because early this morning, Zhu Ge sent someone to deliver a message saying that he would get rid of Yan Ruohai, the head of the Inspection Institute.
And once Yan Ruohai is eliminated, in Li Yunrui's eyes, the person most likely to inherit the position of director of the Inspection Institute is Zhu Ge.
Once Zhu Ge becomes the director of the Inspection Institute, the Inspection Institute will completely become her power.
How could Li Yunrui not be extremely excited about such a great happy event?
"Have you met Yan Ruohai?" Li Yunrui was anxious and couldn't calm down, so he tried to find a topic to chat with the maid.
"Several times!" the maid replied.
Li Yunrui commented, "I've had little contact with him, but I feel that, besides Chen Pingping, he and Zhu Ge are the two most outstanding people in the Eight Major Departments of the Inspection Institute. It's a shame that such a person will fall tonight!"
"I should go with you!" the maid said worriedly.
"No need!" Li Yunrui said confidently, "Zhu Ge's move has been planned for a long time and will be foolproof. From today on, the Inspection Institute will also be at my disposal!"
Li Yunrui stared into the distance, his heart swelling. "Is it like what Li Chengyuan wrote in his poem, that it's cold at the top?"
Oh, I’m not afraid of the cold, I just want to climb up and take a look!”
The maid bowed and replied, "From today onwards, Your Highness will hold sole control of the Inspection Office and the Imperial Treasury. You will be the most powerful woman in the entire Qing Kingdom!"
