Chapter 130 Emperor Qing's Decision, the Ming Family's Choice
Emperor Qing looked at Chen Pingping deeply without saying anything. He opened the secret letter sent by the Supervisory Council with a gloomy face.

It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t open it, but once he sees it, he gets really angry.

"How dare you! How dare a mere Ming family be so rampant? Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs, but she, a mere lady, dared to kill her own son in public. This is truly a heinous crime!"

Looking at the angry Emperor Qing, Chen Pingping lowered his head with a hint of coldness in his eyes.

"Chen Pingping, who do you think would be a good person to send to handle this matter for the Ming family?"

Feeling the gaze of Emperor Qing, Chen Pingping raised his head and glanced at the secret letter in his hand without thinking.

"Your Majesty, I think it would be best if this matter was left to the Third Prince to handle!"

Emperor Qing glanced at Chen Pingping expressionlessly: "Why do you recommend the third brother?"

Chen Pingping bowed and smiled.

"Your Majesty, because the Ming family is located in the south of the Yangtze River and controls the three major workshops, which are very important to the inner treasury, this matter must be resolved by someone sent by the royal family."

"Your Majesty, you are so busy that you naturally don't have the time, so I suggest that you choose one of the princes as your representative."

"Currently, the power to manage the inner treasury is still in the hands of the eldest princess, and the Crown Prince has a close relationship with the eldest princess. The Second Prince also has contacts with the eldest princess. Due to his personality, he is destined to be unable to get along with the people. The two of them are not suitable."

"Only the Third Prince can take on this important task. As the future receiver of the inner treasury, he will definitely pay attention to this matter."

"The people in Jiangnan have been oppressed by the Ming family for many years. They are in urgent need of someone to lead them out of their predicament. The Third Prince is well-known, and he is in Jiangnan, so it is very convenient for him to handle things."

"So, he is the best choice."

After hearing the answer given by Chen Pingping, Emperor Qing frowned slightly.

"There are so many officials in the Qing Kingdom's court, is the third brother the only one who is suitable? What do you think of Fan Xian?"

Hearing this, Chen Pingping was not happy, but frowned.

Due to the appearance of Li Chengping, Fan Xian's journey has not been smooth. Ever since he came back from Northern Qi last time, Fan Xian seemed to have lost his motivation and was in a very depressed mood.

Chen Pingping talked to the other party and later found out that it was because of the matter between Lin Wan'er and Haitang Duoduo.

To sum it up in one sentence, I am trapped by love.

Chen Pingping had never married in his life, and didn't know how to comfort her, so he could only tell Fan Jian about it.

Fan Jian tried to give them some advice, but unfortunately the two had different views on the word love.

Not only did Fan Xian fail to enlighten him, but he made him even more depressed.

Chen Pingping was not dissatisfied with Li Chengping regarding this matter.

In his opinion, if Fan Xian cannot see through the barrier of love, he will be bound by this thing no matter what he does in the future.

Only if you can take on responsibilities and let go of them, can you maintain the demeanor of a real man.

"Chen Pingping, I'm asking you a question!"

Emperor Qing frowned and raised his voice by an octave.

Chen Pingping suddenly came to his senses and gave Emperor Qing an awkward smile.

"Your Majesty, I don't think Fan Xian is suitable. He is too soft-hearted and may not be able to deal with those aristocratic families in Jiangnan."

"Besides, due to his status, he can't be a deterrent to those aristocratic families."

Emperor Qing frowned and thought for a moment. He had to give up the plan of letting Fan Xian go.

"Forget it. In that case, I will write a letter to let the Third Master take full control of the affairs of Jiangnan."

After saying that, Emperor Qing picked up his pen and wrote a secret letter in a short while. He handed the letter directly to Chen Pingping.

"When you return, immediately arrange for someone to deliver the letter to the third brother and tell him that anyone in the Ming family who dares to resist will be killed without mercy!"

Feeling the murderous intent emanating from Emperor Qing, Chen Pingping understood that His Majesty was truly angry this time.

The situation was urgent, so he did not stay for long and left the palace in a hurry. After returning to the Supervisory Office, he immediately sent someone to find Wang Qinian who was resting at home.

"You must set off overnight and make sure to deliver this letter to the Third Prince as quickly as possible, saying that His Majesty has asked him to take charge of all affairs in the Jiangnan region."

"If anyone in the Ming family dares to resist, they will be killed without mercy!"

Wang Qinian's heart skipped a beat.

Of course he had heard of the Ming family's name; it was the largest family in Qing Kingdom. He never expected that they would now face liquidation.

"Please rest assured, Dean. I will leave now!"

……

Suzhou City.

Mingyuan.

In the hall.

Old Lady Ming did not sleep all night, and early the next morning she summoned the top members of the Ming family to discuss matters.

Thinking back to the scene yesterday when Old Lady Ming killed her son with her own hands, these senior officials were even more afraid of her.

Old Lady Ming didn't care about these reputations and her face darkened.

"Everyone, this is a critical moment for the Ming family's survival. Everyone has seen the current situation."

"The Third Prince is clearly determined to fight us to the death. I have a feeling that forcing me to kill Qingda is just the first step. He has other plans next."

"Don't forget, that bastard Ming Qingcheng has already handed the account book to the Third Prince. As long as he presents this to His Majesty, you will all know what the consequences will be!"

The expressions of everyone at the scene changed slightly.

As members of the Ming family, they naturally knew clearly what the family had done over the years. After all, as senior executives, they were also involved in it.

If the Ming family collapses, these people will not be able to escape!
"Madam, we might as well try to win over the Third Prince. After all, he is the future successor to the inner treasury."

"Our Ming family has been in charge of the three major workshops for many years and is very familiar with the situation. With our help, he will be able to more thoroughly control the inner treasury."

Someone stood up and made a suggestion.

This opinion caused many people to nod in support, but some people remained silent.

Old Lady Ming glanced at the supporters at the scene and snorted coldly.

"You are so naive. The Third Prince wants an inner treasury without the Ming family. Now our two sides are at loggerheads. It's too late for you to reconcile now!"

She slowly closed her eyes and sighed in her heart.

The main reason is that the Ming family has dominated the Jiangnan area for too long in recent years, and even forgot the power of the emperor. If she had thought about making friends with Li Chengping at the beginning, perhaps things would not have come to this point.

Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in this world, and you have to pay the price for everything you have done.

Everyone's hearts sank.

They are all smart people. Since reconciliation is impossible, there are only two options left.

Either take your family and escape, or fight to the death.

But the world is so small, where can they run to?
Northern Qi or Dongyi City?
When you arrive in a country where you are unfamiliar with the place, you will still be exploited.

"Damn it, it's just a death anyway, I'm going to fight him!"

I don’t know which hot-tempered person roared, but it instantly inspired the fighting spirit of the others.

"I investigated the Third Prince. He only has 20 guards and a white-haired swordsman. The food they eat every day is provided by a restaurant."

"As long as we control the owner of that restaurant and secretly tamper with the food, we can get rid of them quietly!"
