The grass in the factory should be plucked

Jiang Li was very surprised when she saw these memorials impeaching her.

It was the first time that she was scolded so eloquently and with such brilliant writing skills that one could not help but admire her.

She didn't want to waste her energy on the factional struggles in the court, and these impeachments came at the right time!

Jiang Li immediately picked up her pen and wrote a letter of apology, admitting that she was unfilial and lived a luxurious life. After seeing the earnest teachings of the gentlemen, she felt deeply ashamed and requested the emperor to punish her by confining herself to reflect on her mistakes.

Of course she denied the third charge. She wanted to ask the censor, which eye of his saw her having an affair with Xie Changan, and which eye saw her seducing the current emperor?

What crime should be committed for slandering a super-class marquis without any basis and without any evidence?

What's more, her marriage to Xie Chang'an was granted by the late emperor. What this censor meant was that the late emperor had cuckolded himself!

What crime should be committed for such treasonous act of throwing dirty water on the head of the former emperor?

Jiang Li then wrote a secret letter, telling Nangong Qinghe that she was currently too popular and that this was a good opportunity to temporarily hide from the spotlight so as not to be involved in factional struggles.

Anyway, what she had to do was to be directly responsible to the emperor, and Longmen Trading Company would be responsible for its own profits and losses without the need for court discussion.

Whether she attends court or not, or whether she is in power or not, does not affect the projects she is currently promoting.

Nangong Qinghe had just summoned Cui Jue to discuss the matter when he received the letter of apology from Marquis Jing'an and was shocked.

He read through the petition and the secret petition at a glance and sighed, "Marquis Jing'an is still the one who can see things clearly."

In his heart, he felt both amused and annoyed. A'li just wanted to be lazy and didn't want to get up early to attend court. The censor just happened to help her find a reason that he couldn't refuse!

Cui Jue read Jiang Li's memorial and couldn't help but sigh: "Marquis Jing'an is truly an extraordinary woman. I am ashamed of myself for not being as good as her."

Of course, he could see that this was a siege by the old officials in the court, headed by Prime Minister Liang, against these new forces, with the intention of strangling them in the cradle.

Marquis Jing'an's move was like a punch hitting cotton!

I wonder what kind of expressions they would have when they saw Marquis Jing'an's "apology"?

Cui Jue couldn't help but look forward to it.

When Xie Changan learned about this, he was naturally very angry.

How long has it been since I left the East Depot, and this group of officials have forgotten the fear of being dominated by the East Depot's secret guards?

The Jinyiwei wanted to frame them with charges that were even more severe than those fabricated by the Eastern Depot.

What’s more, the “spy” from the East Factory who monitored their every move around the clock was not a human being at all!

"Little raccoon, your mice can go back to their old ways."

After Jiang Li left the East Factory with him, he asked Fat Rat to withdraw the rat spies lurking in the officials' homes.

She reviewed all her friends in the palace. Those who left the palace with her included Huahua, Dalizi, Feihaozi, and their respective teams.

Huahua said that she was tired of the food from the imperial kitchen and wanted to try some folk delicacies.

Jiang Li sent the Huahua Squad to Longmen Boat Banquet and Longmen Restaurant, letting them enjoy the food to their heart's content and acting as "surveillance" to prevent anyone from trying to take advantage of them.

Big Lizi and his team followed Jiang Li to the Longmen headquarters next to the East Factory, where they were responsible for security work and also facilitated the delivery of secret letters between Big Lizi and the Little Lizi in the palace.

As for the fat rat and its little brothers, since there were too many of them, Jiang Li put them in Longmen Tiangong's farm and helped Mo Qilang dig tunnels.

Jiang Li saw Xie Changan's cold smile and knew that he was very angry, so he smiled and said, "Brother Changan, I'm not angry, why are you angry? Isn't it interesting to see them jumping up and down?"

Xie Changan glanced at her and said, "They scolded you like that, but you weren't angry? Why did you keep nagging me when I said a few words to you?"

Jiang Li smiled slyly: "I just want to see our majestic Lord Xie acting in a humble manner..."

Before she could finish her words, Xie Changan covered her mouth and kissed her hard.

His kiss became more and more frantic. Jiang Li was so embarrassed that she had to beg for mercy: "I won't dare to do it again!"

Xie Changan's eyes were deep: "I will settle accounts with you in the future."

Jiang Li was so embarrassed that she pushed him out the door: "Hurry up and leave, you'll be late for the government office!"

Xie Changan smiled, gently helped her put her clothes in order, and kissed her on the lips: "Be good and stay at home, wait for me to come back."

After he left, Jiang Li covered her hot face and calmed her breathing. Then she communicated with Fat Mouse through the contract in her mind: "Mouse, come back and start working!"

Fat Rat came back with a group of his followers, riding in Longmen Tiangong's carriage, in a high-spirited and heroic manner.

According to the list Xie Changan gave her, Jiang Li asked Fei Haozi to assign his younger brothers to the mansions of those officials one by one.

in the hall.

Nangong Qinghe handed Jiang Li's "apology" letter to Liang Shoufu, and said calmly: "Marquis Jing'an has asked to reflect on his mistakes behind closed doors. Do you have anything else to say?"

Prime Minister Liang, Lord Chang and other ministers were all stunned. They never expected that Marquis Jing'an would respond in this way.

They struck out with heavy punches, but it was like hitting a ball of cotton. This feeling of powerlessness was really frustrating!

Cui Jue couldn't help but smile when he saw the stunned expressions of these old foxes.

As the saying goes, "A random punch can kill a master", people like Jing'an Hou who don't play by the rules can often catch their opponents off guard and win with one move.

Prime Minister Liang's mind raced as he realized that they could do nothing to the Marquis of Jing'an!

Reflecting on her mistakes at home did not affect her ability to plan and advance Longmen's affairs.

The required funds will be borne by Longmen Trading Company itself without going through the national treasury.

So, what difference does it make whether she goes to court or not?

Prime Minister Liang secretly winked at Censor Wang.

Censor Wang had no choice but to step out and say: "I want to impeach Marquis Jing'an... for committing adultery in the palace..."

"Be bold!"

Nangong Qinghe said angrily, "What do you mean? The marriage between Marquis Jing'an and Xie Qing was granted by the late emperor himself. How can you make up stories without any evidence?"

The Duke of Zhenguo stepped out and said, "I want to impeach Censor Wang for being disrespectful to the late emperor!"

"The late emperor has issued an oral decree that Yin Shiliu, the secret guard of the East Factory, has made great contributions in rescuing the emperor and is hereby conferred the title of Princess Fuhui and is to be married to Xie Chang'an, the commander of the Jinyiwei."

"I was present with Liao Dugong, Liang Shoufu, Chang Gelao, and Shen Gelao at the time. Mr. Shoufu, is this true?"

Liang Shoufu had to nod: "It is true."

At this time, Liao Wuyong also stepped out and said, "I am an incompetent old man, but I have the honor of serving as the governor of the East Factory to protect the emperor's former palace. When Censor Wang impeached Marquis Jing'an for committing adultery in the palace, should he also impeach me for dereliction of duty and Commander Xie for embezzlement?"

"I wonder how Censor Wang, who is outside the palace, knew about Marquis Jing'an's promiscuity in the palace?"

Wang Yushi was pale and trembling: "A concubine in the cold palace actually became a secret guard of the East Factory. This... This is not a good wife!"

Nangong Qinghe said coldly: "The Queen Mother once personally praised Jing'an Hou. Although he was demoted to the cold palace, he was still loyal and made great contributions to the late emperor and the court."

"Censor Wang, could it be that the Queen Mother also condoned and condoned the Marquis of Jing'an's promiscuity in the palace?"

Censor Wang turned pale and collapsed to the ground.
