Going to Beijing to save his father, all the powerful officials in the city are vying to be his fath

Zhao Liangchen's eyes widened: "You want me to vote out the corrupt person?"

Su Qin raised an eyebrow. "Why not? I'm sure no one knows more about the group that framed my father than Lord Zhao.

If you want to rescue my father, you will inevitably have to sacrifice some people. Why is Lord Zhao unwilling? Are you just talking about rescuing my father and the others? "

Zhao Liangchen hurriedly shook his head: "That's not what I meant. I just wanted to say that if we go against those people, we may not win. You don't know how powerful they are. Even the emperor doesn't dare to confront them head-on."

Su Qin: "I understand. They are just some royal relatives. The emperor is young and powerless, so there are always some people who are unwilling to give in and are eager to fight for it."

Zhao Liangchen widened his eyes in surprise: "How do you know this?"

Su Qin tilted her head in surprise: "Is it so hard to guess? The emperor has only been on the throne for five years and is definitely not an old man. A young emperor certainly cannot fully control the government. The government is either controlled by some powerful ministers or some royal relatives.

They wanted to embezzle disaster relief funds to eliminate dissidents and improve their own reputation. It was definitely not just for that little bit of money. What they wanted was power, status, and supremacy.

It is impossible to obtain these without usurping the throne, but if a powerful official wants to usurp the throne, he has to change the world. This is too difficult. Not only will there be opposition from civil and military officials, but there will also be obstruction from royal relatives. The army will not support it unless it is trained or bribed in advance.

But it is different for the royal family. As long as it can be proved that the current emperor is unworthy of the position and incompetent, it will be much easier to nominate a royal family member who is virtuous, prestigious and capable to ascend the throne.

So the people behind your father and his group should be members of the royal family, some prince or something."

Zhao Liangchen was surprised and happy when he saw Su Qin saying this.

What is shocking is that a woman who grew up in the countryside can analyze things so thoroughly with just a few words. This is something that even officials in the court may not be able to do.

The good news is that Su Qin is so smart. Not only will she not be a hindrance in rescuing her father, she may even be of great help.

To be honest, he has often felt isolated and helpless since he was reborn. He is the only one who knows about this matter. He wants to change the outcome of the matter, but his ability is limited. There is a limit to what he can do alone, but he doesn't know who to ask for help, who can help him, and he doesn't even have someone to discuss things with.

Now, Su Qin is definitely on the same side as him. She is so smart, so he will have someone to talk to in the future, and he will no longer be alone.

However, he was still a little worried: "Since you know who our enemy is, you should know how difficult this is. We have no people and no power, so how can we fight them?"

Su Qin shook her head: "No, you are wrong, we have people, those disaster victims, those officials who are against them, and even ordinary people on the street are all people we can use.

We don't need power, we just need to win the hearts and minds of the people before they do, and we can contain them. Haven't you heard the saying, 'He who wins the hearts of the people rules the world?'"

Zhao Liangchen leaned forward and asked excitedly, "How can the disaster victims be of use to us?"

Su Qin said to him, "Your father and his men are right. They need to mobilize the grievances of the victims to accelerate the unrest, so that the court and the emperor will be determined to use my father's death to quell the grievances of the victims.

They can do this, and we can do this too, but what we have to do is not to quell the grievances of the victims, but to add fuel to the fire, making the grievances of the victims even greater, so great that even killing a few people cannot quell the riot, forcing them to hand over the disaster relief money in advance.

Of course, when doing all this, we must first cast doubt on my father's guilt, and have another suspect emerge so that the Minister of Justice can investigate and prove that my father is not the one who embezzled disaster relief funds. In this way, the court will not directly push my father out to die when the victims riot.

The choice of the suspect will be decided by Mr. Zhao himself."

Zhao Liangchen fell into deep thought. He actually didn't know much about his father. In his previous life, he didn't know that his father had been using him until he died.

It was only when Zhao Kuo was showing off proudly when he killed him that he realized that he had been living in calculations for the past ten years. His father asked him to be loyal to the emperor, gain the emperor's trust, and use him to paralyze and influence the emperor, while he himself was secretly loyal to others.

However, although he didn't know much about other things, he still knew who the officials were from his father's faction. After all, those officials who had joined the rebellion in his previous life had already clearly taken sides.

He carefully recalled which of these people were available.

“This person definitely cannot be my father. Although his official position is not very high, he has always been the confidant of the person behind the scenes. Even if we put the blame on my father, the person behind the scenes will find a way to clear his name. Moreover, he is from the Ministry of War and has no chance of accessing the disaster relief funds.

This person must have access to disaster relief funds, and his official position should not be too high to make them reluctant to give it up, nor too low to cause shock to the court and anger to the victims.

Su Qin didn't know much about the officialdom, but she knew that the Ministry of Revenue usually had access to disaster relief funds. She asked Zhao Liangchen, "What do you think of the Minister of Revenue?"

Before Zhao Liangchen could say anything, Elder Zeng, who had been listening in from behind, spoke first: "Don't even think about this guy. He's not exactly an honest official, but if you pin the embezzlement of disaster relief funds on him, no one will believe it."

Su Qin turned around and asked curiously, "Why?"

Mr. Zeng: "The Minister of Revenue, Chang Shanqi, is an old man older than me. He is a veteran of three dynasties and a confidant of the late emperor. He was in charge of the Ministry of Revenue during the late emperor's lifetime and never made a mistake. He has a good reputation. Now he only holds the title of Minister of Revenue in name only and basically does not care about anything.

If someone were to accuse a man who was about to die of corruption, no one would believe it, and the emperor would not dare to let him die.

Zhao Liangchen nodded. "Yes, Lord Chang basically doesn't care about anything. The Ministry of Revenue is managed by the two assistant ministers, and your father is the most respected, so generally speaking, he makes the final decision. Father and his men want to control the Ministry of Revenue and can't get around your father, so they took action against him."

Su Qin: "They attacked my father but not the Right Minister, so the Right Minister might be one of their men?"

Zhao Liangchen did not deny it: "Maybe not before, but after what happened with your father, no matter if he was bribed or intimidated, he would become one of theirs."

Su Qin nodded: "Then choose him. He has the most contact with my father, so it is more reasonable for him to frame my father."

Zhao Liangchen: "But how can we frame him for the corruption case? Lord Tong is very capable, and false evidence may not be able to fool him."

Su Qin laughed sarcastically: "I don't think so. Isn't my father's evidence fake? Why didn't he see it?"

Zhao Liangchen: "In fact, the evidence has not been verified by Master Tong yet, so your father has not been convicted yet. Your father was arrested on the order of the emperor. This is my fault. I delivered the evidence of Zhao Kuo's crime directly to the emperor. The emperor directly ordered the arrest of Zhao Kuo. After Zhao Kuo gave up your father, your father was arrested by the imperial guards.

My father and his men must have been afraid that Master Tong would discover the evidence was fabricated, so they were eager to use the riots of the disaster victims to execute your father."

Su Qin: "Then send another piece of evidence to Lord Tong to confuse him and make him doubt the previous evidence. As long as he still has doubts and has not been bribed, my father will not be easily pushed out to die."
