Chapter Five Hundred and Eighteen National Thieves, Traitors, Prostitutes (8)

Liu Yu was not surprised when he heard the news that Sun Weiqian was unconscious. It was natural that such an old stubborn person could not afford such a blow.

For Confucian scholars like Sun Weiqian who have never experienced the baptism of officialdom, black is black, white is white, and black is white. Black and white are clearly distinguished. Those who meet his value orientation are loyalty, and those who do not meet are treason. However, a powerful minister like Liu Yu, who is a maverick, was naturally summarized as a "thief" by Sun Weiqian.

If a thief is in power, loyalty and kindness are wronged, it would be strange if he can think about it.

Liu Yu did not ask in detail, but instead asked with a relaxed tone and said, "Old Qu, ask you something, what are you going to make when you said you were going to make arrangements?"

Qu Zhu's face rose a little puzzled. He didn't expect Liu Yu to suddenly ask such an inconsistency question and told the truth: "Who is the general going to meet? The subordinates will naturally go and handle things first."

"Do you think I'm going to see Sun Weiqian?"

Qu Zhu didn't answer, but his face seemed to be asking: "Isn't it?"

Liu Yu sighed slightly. Qu Zhu used to be a wild person. His scoundrel when he pretended to be crazy in the Fourth Princess's Mansion had been smoothed out and gradually became without any personal characteristics.

"Old Qu, you have to learn more about some things." Liu Yu sighed and asked again, "There is Liao Mingsheng in Dongning Mansion. How many have you found?"

Qu Zhu did not read the information and replied fluently: "Liao Mingsheng is a county magistrate of Taikang County. He will step down this year. However, because he is not valued by the prefect Ling Daoqi, he may have to be a commoner and serve the people after this term. It is said that he is wandering in the officialdom of Huaibei Province."

Liu Yu didn't expect Qu Zhu to squeeze Liao Mingsheng's information out of the way.

"Then who is this Liao Mingsheng?"

"Liao Mingsheng has no merits and no faults in governing the local area, but he is not a real person. He has no talent and knowledge. Therefore, Ling Daoqi's followers have no good feelings for him. This is also the reason why he cannot remain or be promoted. However, Liao Mingsheng has a strong family background and has collected evidence of local officials' crimes. He reported the local supervisory censor Ling Daoqi and his followers' corruption case, but later, because there was no evidence to investigate, the matter was left unresolved."

Liu Yu smiled and said, "It's interesting. I'm still a very meticulous person. What happened later?"

"Later... Liao Mingsheng offended Ling Daoqi because of this, and there was no possibility of promotion in the officialdom, and he was also investigated for false accusation. This time, Ling Daoqi strictly prohibited local officials from approaching the emperor's carriage, and did not allow local officials to come to give gifts. It is said that only he is preparing to find opportunities to approach the general, which should be paving the way for his official career."

Liu Yu waved his hand and said, "Okay, you go down. Remember to check Liao Mingsheng's detailed background and report to me later."

Qu Zhu didn't quite understand why Liu Yu was so interested in a sesame mung bean official. However, among so many officials in Dongning Prefecture, there were not many people who had a marriage with the prefect Ling Hui. Niu Lu was proven to be incompatible. Now, someone who had an objection to Ling Hui may have wanted to make a fuss. Therefore, Qu Zhu was prepared to start investigating this aspect.

Liu Yu felt boring in the prefect's mansion, so he wanted to go back to the palace. He delayed for a day in Dongning Mansion. Liu Yu was about to continue his journey south the next day, after all, the war in the south could not be delayed for a long time.

As soon as Liu Yu left the gate of the prefect's mansion, he saw Liao Mingsheng coming back with a smile on his face to report to Liu Yu.

"Qiansui, everything is arranged." Liao Mingsheng bowed and bowed to Liu Yu and said.

Liu Yu smiled and just arranged for Liao Mingsheng to take a few people to the girls' academy, without mentioning anything else. It was very difficult for Liao Mingsheng to understand. Although Liu Yu felt that Liao Mingsheng was not simple, he also bet in his heart that what Liao Mingsheng did was not what he wanted.

"Are you really ready? Let me tell you what you have prepared."

Liao Mingsheng smiled and said, "If you ask Qiansui to go there, you will naturally know whether the preparations of Beisui are in line with Qiansui's wishes."

As soon as Liao Mingsheng finished speaking, Lian Husheng shouted and said, "If you ask me to say it, you dare to dominate the general and walk with you, but are you impatient to live?"

Seeing Liao Mingsheng's confident smile, Liu Yu waved his hand to stop Lian Husheng from continuing to speak.

"You are so sure that I will go with you?" Liu Yu asked again.

Liao Mingsheng said: "I think Qiansui will still go."

Liu Yu laughed and said, "I didn't expect that others have some ideas. I really want to see how you prepared. Let's take me to see."

Liao Mingsheng personally led Liu Yu over and wanted to bend down to serve as a horse stool for Liu Yu. Liu Yu waved his hand and signaled not to use it. Liu Yuxin said that such a person who is good at flattering and flattering is no wonder he doesn't like the Confucian officials such as Ling Hui and Yu Hui.

"Please ask County Lieutenant Liao to lead the way." Liu Yu stepped on the horse and signaled.

"Senius, please follow the post of the humble one."

Liao Mingsheng was about to lead Liu Yu's horse away as he spoke. Liu Yu asked in surprise: "Don't you go on the horse with him? From here to the south of the city, it's not close."

"No need to go to the south of the city. There is a leisure house in the city. Qiansui just needs to go there, not far away."

Liu Yu didn't say much. Under Liao Mingsheng's guidance, he arrived at a mansion gate, which was only two streets away from the prefect's mansion. It was indeed "not far" as Liao Mingsheng said. At this time, several guards who went to the south of the city were waiting in front of the mansion gate. When he saw Liu Yu coming, the guards came over to report that this was Liao Mingsheng's arrangement.

"The Lieutenant Liao asked the carriage to carry a few people over, because the general ordered everything to follow the arrangements of the Lieutenant Liao, and his subordinates did not dare to rebel." The deputy guard leader reported.

"Um."

Liu Yu nodded, didn't ask too much details, and took the guards into the gate of the mansion. There were maids and old women waiting in the yard. Liao Mingsheng smiled and said, "This is just a villa for Beiyi. Today I can get the Qiansui Grand Priest... Qiansui please follow Beiyi..."

Liu Yu followed Liao Mingsheng around the main hall and arrived before a two-story building in the side yard. At this time, there were guards guarding him in front of the building. Liao Mingsheng said, "Please come in, Qiansui..."

Liu Yu stopped and asked, "What you mentioned is this?"

Liao Mingsheng responded respectfully: "That's right."

Liu Yu waved his hand, Lian Husheng rushed up and pushed open the door, and a woman's scream came from inside. Lian Husheng took the guard in to investigate before coming out to repay Liu Yu: "Report to General, there is no one except a few women."

Liu Yu stood at the door and did not enter. The women inside were all the female students I had seen yesterday, including the group of female students, including Miss Ling, who "strife with Liu Yu" yesterday, who was asking for a kite. Two or three of the female students who were attracted to Liu Yu were also inside. At this time, these female students were frightened. When they saw the king who stole their kites yesterday reappearing, they no longer had the courage to talk yesterday, and hid behind the table, with fear on their faces.

When Liao Mingsheng saw that Liu Yuli was at the door and did not go in or speak, he felt a little nervous. He was afraid that the first thing Liu Yu ordered him to do would not be good, which would be a devastating blow to his future future.

"Qiansui...but not satisfied?" Liao Mingsheng asked tentatively.

Liu Yu's face naturally didn't say anything, raised his finger and pointed at the lady Ling's family and said, "Let her go to the pavilion she passed by to see me."
