I want to ruin the country

Lin Zexu answered without hesitation,

"Of course it's the crime of treason!"

Yining Road,

"Well, if they are charged with other crimes, how do you think they should be dealt with?"

Lin Zexu said,

"Of course it will be handled according to the law!"

"Excuse me, Lord Lin, what is my purpose?"

"Uh, this..."

Yining Road,

"If they gather to cause trouble, or even storm the Imperial Palace, they won't be expelled from the capital. Only treason will bring disaster to the entire clan!"

What kind of person is Lin Zexu? He is a very shrewd person. He understands both the law and human relationships very well.

When he thought about it carefully, he understood that he had been living in a small circle before!

"Your Majesty, I think I understand!"

Yining Road,

"That's good to understand. We need to make them do what we want, but we also need to avoid excessive killing!

I really have no other choice but to lift it high up and then let it down gently!"

Lin Zexu said,

"Your Majesty, I understand your good intentions! But if the crime of treason can be raised high and then easily punished, wouldn't that be unacceptable to the people?"

Yining laughed loudly.

"Mr. Lin, you are truly a gentleman!

After the incident, even a three-year-old kid could figure out that they had fallen into my trap!

There's no such thing as treason; it's just a joke!"

At this point, Lin Zexu finally realized that the emperor had set a very simple yet very clever trap!

It's ridiculous that I'm in my sixties and still worried about slander and ridicule, looking back and forth, thinking about how things will end next. It turns out that everything is under the control of the emperor!

Lin Zexu bowed to the ground.

"Your Majesty, this old minister is heartbroken!"

Yining said hurriedly,

"Master Lin, you are wrong. You are a gentleman. You will not tolerate such despicable tactics!

Just like seeing a doctor, these are all wild prescriptions!"

Lin Zexu said,

"As long as it can cure the disease, it's a good prescription!"

Wu Yong's family received a notice from the government that Wu Yong had been arrested for rebellion.

"Rebellion, no?"

Wu Yong’s wife and son were stunned!

How is that possible? Our family and the emperor's family are one family. We even call the emperor uncle. We are just five generations apart. How could we rebel?

They wanted to ask for details, but the police officer who issued the notice said nothing and left!

After going out and asking carefully, I found out that Wu Yong had done something terrible outside in the past two days.

Wu Yong's parents were so angry that they beat their chests and stamped their feet.

"Evil creature, why are you bothering the emperor?"

Things have come to this point, it’s too late to say anything!

Although Wu Yong's father and the emperor are within the fifth degree of kinship, he cannot see the emperor. There is no other way but to quickly seek help and use his connections to rescue him!

You see, China is a society based on personal relationships. No matter what happens, people don't think about suing first, but instead think about finding acquaintances, using connections, and using backdoors.

If you have found someone, you can generally relax and think that at least you won’t suffer any loss!

If you don't have any connections, it will feel like the sky is falling. You will think that even if you are right, you will definitely suffer a great loss!

Wu Yong's son is seventeen years old and just got married last year.

Although he seems to be an adult after getting married, in fact he is still a big-headed kid. How could he have any ideas?

Wu Yong's wife remembered that her younger brother always said that he had a broad vision and was very knowledgeable. She was desperate and tried all kinds of treatments. She quickly took her son home to discuss the matter with his father and brother.

Wu Yong's wife is also the daughter of a bannerman family. Her family is also bannermen, and her status is not low, but unfortunately they have long been impoverished.

His father is over sixty years old and smokes like a tuberculosis patient.

He gasps for breath every day and it feels like there's a bellows in his throat. He can't even speak a complete sentence and is completely unreliable.

The family had no savings and relied on money given by the court to survive.

If it was just food and drink for the whole family, it would be enough, but unfortunately his son Lian Song was addicted to gambling and smoking opium.

As long as he had some money, he would either find ways to take it to a smoking den or take it to a casino and lose it.

Lian Song also likes to show off. He carries a pipe with him every day to show off. He picks his teeth whenever he has time, as if he has eaten too much meat.

Since he didn't want to spend the money at home, he came to his sister to deal with her.

Of course the elder sister loves her younger brother and scolds him when necessary. After scolding him, she still has to give him some money from time to time to help him.

He didn't dare give more, as Wu Yong was watching!

Besides, giving too much is not a good thing. In the end, you will either smoke or gamble away the money.

Wu Yong disliked his brother-in-law the most. Every time he came, he would not even look at him and would just do what he was doing.

My brother-in-law didn’t dare to say anything else, because he was rich!

The imperial court banned smoking a while ago, and at first Lian Song could still smoke a little every few days.

The situation became increasingly tense, and many large and small opium dealers were executed in the capital, making it impossible to smoke anymore.

Lian Song had no choice but to stay at home for more than ten days and finally quit smoking opium.

If you can’t smoke opium anymore, just smoke a pipe and buy good cigarettes!

Things like the Toad Toad tobacco from Northeast China and the surprisingly expensive small orchids became his new interests.

Also, I can’t quit gambling. As long as I have money, I will gamble. Even if I don’t have money, I will still gamble no matter how hard I try!

In this way, his life is still sad as usual!

No matter how sad you are, you have to deal with it. At worst, you can just be more shameless and ask your sister for help!

Fortunately, Wu Yong doesn't spend much time at home. He is either in teahouses, taverns or theaters.

Lian Song also had to figure out his pattern and only come when he was not at home to avoid a wasted trip.

Therefore, if a person does not have the desire to live a good life, it will not work if he passively changes the conditions.

However, Lian Song has quite a few bad friends, and there is one who hangs out on the street.

When people mention Mr. Lian, whether they admire him or not is a matter of debate. At least everyone in this city knows him and he is considered an open-minded person.

Why is the elder brother called Lian Erye? It is because he has an older brother who died of illness when he was five years old.

According to this ranking, he is the second!

After listening to what his sister said, Lian Song stomped his feet and cursed.

"See? He's the only one who can do it. He's full and bored, looking for trouble. He really doesn't even know his own last name."

My father-in-law sat there smoking and couldn't say anything.

Wu Yong's wife wiped her tears anxiously.

"Brother, don't say that now. Your last name is Aisin-Gioro, so what's the point?

After all, he is your brother-in-law, so think of a solution quickly!"

Lian Song curled his lips and said,

"Brother-in-law? I've never seen him like this.

His family is wealthy and powerful, but when a relative is in trouble, instead of offering a helping hand, look at his face, it's even more droopy than a donkey's!"

His father knocked on his pipe and said,

"Ahem, stop complaining, don't you still have your sister and nephew? Look at them.

Ahem, besides, ahem, your sister rarely helps you, ahem, hurry up and find a solution!"
