Hidden in the court

The servant said this softly and then shut up. He noticed that Lowe's face had turned bad again.

Luo Wei pondered, although Ji Mingshang was not reasonable, he was not a fool. He came to me at this time and said such things. Thinking about Ji Mingshang's behavior in the past three years, Luo Wei had reason to suspect that Ji Mingshang had escaped from Ji Liancheng's control or at least he wanted to escape from Ji Liancheng.

Han Gui’s incident has made him realize that Ji Liancheng may have never trusted him, so much so that he directly bypassed him and cooperated with other officials.

Then how many people in the civil service team led by him secretly cooperated with Ji Liancheng? If he waits until he no longer needs me to stabilize the situation, it is hard to say whether he can survive well.

Ji Mingshang seems to be a good breakthrough point. Without Ji Mingshang as his "agent", Ji Liancheng's control over the capital will be greatly reduced. If he returns to the northeastern border, he will be just a "blind man".

Luo Wei rubbed his brows and said, "Go ahead, ask him to come in."

Ji Mingshang was brought in and bowed.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister."

Lowe was very surprised. This kid was a little too serious today. Something was wrong.

"Why, you don't even call me uncle anymore?"

"Prime Minister, you are joking. When you are working, you should still refer to your position."

"Work, you are still working. Tell me, what is it?"

"I have some information that can help you solve your problem."

Lowe was a little confused, "Oh, tell me about it?"

"A message came from the North. Han Gui has been smuggling food, fodder and military equipment to the North in recent years. The quantity is not large. But he should have transported more. What do you think?"

Lowe is not a fool, so he can understand it naturally.

"Is it for your father?"

"Tsk, who was your father in your previous life is still unknown. I am doing this for you, Prime Minister. You are my father-in-law."

At this moment, the North

The burly Xihe Huchen huddled timidly aside, with an older brother in front of him who was half a head shorter than him.

"Are you stupid? I asked you to deliver it to the Liangwu official, but you delivered it to Ji Mingshang. How can you negotiate? What can you use to blackmail me? What I want is to bring an army to punish the culprit, but you are giving him a helping hand."

……

"Mr. Prime Minister, with this, you can complete the task without offending Ji Liancheng. I know your good intentions in wanting to stabilize the country, and we have the same goal."

Luo Wei felt like laughing as he listened. You kid, you don't even call me dad. I wonder what Ji Liancheng will do if he finds out.

"Just tell me the truth. You are definitely not so kind. What do you want?"

"My Lord Prime Minister has a keen eye. I just want you to perform a play with me after Ji Liancheng comes back."

Luo Wei felt that he could agree to it. It would weaken Ji Liancheng and maintain the balance, so why not do it?

"Okay, how do you act? Tell me how you act it?"

Ji Mingshang smiled slyly, put his mouth close to Lowe's ear and whispered softly.

"Mr. Prime Minister, we..."

After a moment, Lowe looked at Ji Mingshang with complicated eyes.

"Is it such a big deal?"

Ji Mingshang nodded affirmatively.

"Okay, I promise you. Can you give me the evidence you have?"

As he said that, he was about to take the thing in Ji Mingshang's hand.

Ji Mingshang pulled his hand back, "Prime Minister, is this another price?"

Luo Wei was very upset, "What's the matter? What terms do you want to negotiate with me?"

"Prime Minister, don't get excited, it's a small matter. It's just a matter of your words."

Luo Wei also withdrew his hand, "Tell me clearly, what else is there?"

"I want to ask Lin'er to go out and play."

"This is impossible! There is no room for negotiation."

"This is extremely important evidence. Are you sure?"

"I will never sell my daughter out, so get out if you can't stay."

At this time, Luo Lin also came and was outside the door. He heard Ji Mingshang say this. He felt disappointed and touched. He was disappointed that he couldn't go out to play, and he was touched by his father's attitude.

"Forget it, let this evidence be regarded as a gift from my son-in-law to you."

Ji Mingshang was not too disappointed, as if he just wanted to disgust Luo Wei.

After getting the evidence, Lowe casually flipped through it.

It was discovered that Ji Mingshang must have modified this thing. With this, Han Gui would definitely not survive.

Originally, it was just an abuse of power, and it also implicated Ji Liancheng. It was originally his own army, and Nangong Lin would not turn against Ji Liancheng because of Han Gui.

It is different now. Fatty Han is transporting food, fodder and military equipment to the northern border. To put it nicely, it is illegal business and smuggling. To put it bluntly, it is treason.

Once this hat is put on, Lowe will not have to break up with Ji Liancheng, and the emperor can also take the opportunity to criticize Ji Liancheng, and Ji Liancheng will not suffer any major losses.

From then on, a world in which only Han Gui was injured was created.

Thinking of this, Lowe didn't stay at home any longer and went straight to the palace with the evidence.

Before leaving, Lowe glanced at Ji Mingshang as a warning.

Ji Mingshang said he understood, and just as Lowe left, Ji Mingshang finished his tea.

"Let's go and play, baby~"

Luo Wei arrived at the palace and went straight to Nangong Lin.

"Your Majesty, we have found out that Han Gui has been smuggling food, fodder and weapons to the Zheng family in the northern border for many years. He is suspected of treason."

"What the Prime Minister means is that this matter has nothing to do with the Prince of Jin?"

"No, according to my investigation, the King of Jin only purchased a batch of food and fodder through Han Gui, but no weapons."

"That is to say, the Prince of Jin did not do anything wrong. I understand. Thank you for your hard work, Prime Minister. When the Prince of Jin returns to the capital to report on his work, I ask the Prime Minister to continue the investigation."

"I understand, but the treatment of Han Gui still needs your majesty to decide. Although the King of Jin did not privately purchase military equipment, the smuggling business between Han Gui and the North is a fact."

"On charges of smuggling weapons and treason. When the Prince of Jin returns to the capital, he will be publicly tortured to death."

"According to the order."

Luo Wei murmured in his heart, Lingchi is Lingchi, but is the public execution intended to make the people of the capital starve to death?

Nangong Lin's voice brought his thoughts back.

"Prime Minister, we have finished discussing official matters. Let's talk about some personal matters."

Lowe didn't understand.

This was exactly the expression Nangong Lin wanted.

"Prime Minister, I actually have a son."

Luo Wei was even more stunned. What the hell? If you have a son, then what's the matter between me and the old general?

"I want you to know that I have a son. Once Han Gui dies, the next person to die will be my in-laws. From now on, as long as you, Prime Minister, are willing to join forces with the old general, the King of Jin will not act rashly. In this way, the world will be at peace."

Lowe fell into deep thought, then spoke solemnly.

"Your Majesty, rest assured that as long as I am in this position, I will never betray my country."

Nangong Lin also remained silent. He really wanted to win over Luo Wei. But judging from Luo Wei's attitude, he was still waiting and watching. There was no other way. This head of the officials could directly break the balance. If he didn't win him over, he would be unable to sleep or eat.
