It's late at night.

Gong Juren's mansion.

"If I have already approved Li Fan's memorial today, the Ministry of Personnel can no longer refuse Li Fan's official letter. Lord Changsun, can I have the latest instructions?"

Gong Juren looked at Changsun Yichun respectfully.

Changsun Yichun sneered and said, "Do I still need to teach you these?"

"In the current game of chess, Li Fan took the lead, and we just need not let him show off his wishes, that is to win."

"Why did Li Fan insist on letting the Ministry of Justice assess all officials?

You still want to find the person he wants?”

"The assessment must be conducted, but no one can guarantee the results of the assessment, which will satisfy him..." Hearing this, Gong Juren instantly understood! "I understand!"

Gong Juren immediately said, "I'll call my confidant now..."

...Han Mansion.

"Sir, I have notified Yong'an County that they are ready. What should be cleaned up has been cleaned up long ago, and Li Fan can't find anything."

The butler confidently reported to Han Yuande.

Han Won-de nodded, and smiled with satisfaction.

"Li Fan, Li Fan, so what if you are really unparalleled in wisdom... I have cleaned up the certified physical evidence from that year, what else can you do?"

"By the way, sir, yesterday, Pan Xingchao was sick at home and said he had suffered a cold."

The butler suddenly spoke.

"Don't worry about him."

Han Won-de waved his hand.

…Chunming Palace.

"Li Fan has now become the Minister of Justice and the Chief of the Hanlin Academy. Today, there is another title: Governor of the Supervision Bureau, are you satisfied?"

Liu Huan looked at Shen You hatefully.

From the day Li Fan became the Minister of Justice, he almost went crazy.

This was a big defeat for him.

The former Minister of Justice Sun Zhongfu was his man, and the Hanlin Academy also looked at him.

The Ministry of Justice and the Hanlin Academy are his territory! Now they have all been taken away by Li Fan, and his power has been weakened a lot in an instant, which can be said to be severely damaged.

Moreover, Li Fan's power is still growing stronger and stronger now.

This trend made him hate, fear and angry! But Shen You smiled and said, "I'm satisfied?

Your Highness, this is no wonder I am. The Minister of Justice and the Chief of the Hanlin Academy, it was not what I gave to Li Fan..." "But you watched helplessly and didn't move!"

Liu Huan felt angry and said, "My mother asked you to assist me. Is this your assistance?"

Shen You thought for a moment and said, "Yes, this is indeed my assistant."

"Assist you when Li Fan is in great power, you won't die at his hands."

After he finished speaking, he gently shook his glass, then took a sip, and his face showed a pleasant expression of wine tasting.

"you!"

Liu Huan was very angry.

"Good wine..." Shen You smiled and said, "Your Highness, the real good wine needs to be tasted slowly."

"I firmly believe in one truth."

"When you are prosperous, you will decline, and when you are perfect, you will lose.

How arrogant was Wu Tiangu back then? Now?

Didn't it turn into dust?

You just need to wait patiently, the wheel of history will crush Li Fan to pieces."

"Don't forget that his enemies are not the only ones."

Liu Huan said in a deep voice: "I'm just afraid that he will become another Li Wen!"

Shen You showed a surprised expression and said, "Your Highness, don't you really think that Li Fan will be the same person as Li Wen, right?"

"Not he?"

"He is definitely not."

Chen You vetoed firmly: "Li Wen will compromise, but Li Fan will not. What he wants to do is not for himself, so he has no room for compromise."

"At this point, I believe that he will become another Wu Tiangu."

… “Sir, Gong Juren’s confidant, went to the houses of the two ministers and the three chief clerks tonight, and it should be a letter.”

"The two ministers are Zhang Taoshan and Meng Qingyuan, and the three chief clerks are Wang Zhong, Yang Zhao and Zhu Chao."

Li Fan smiled and said, "The fox finally stretched out his claws."

"Except for the people in charge of Yong'an County, the rest were all gathered together to kill these five people."

"As expected, the five of them are the people Gong Juren will use to conduct official assessments this time."

"In order not to let me go, they will definitely play tricks in the assessment. They will seize the tricks they play, find evidence and witnesses to prove that Gong Jurenyang is slanderous, violates the imperial edict, and commits crimes... His path is over."

Li Fan smiled.

When Gong Juren and others believed that Li Fan's goal was to select the talents they wanted, and believed that as long as Li Fan was prevented from achieving this goal, it would be a victory, but they did not know that when they developed this understanding, they had already become Li Fan's prey.

...The official documents from the Ministry of Justice have been sent to various states quickly.

The chiefs of various states were rushing towards Xijing.

……now.

Jinghe Palace.

"Teacher, Li Fan did not accept my apprenticeship."

Liu Jing spoke with some regret.

The old man smiled slightly and said, "It's understandable.

People like Li Fan don’t care about who is the emperor or who is in power, so naturally they are unwilling to be involved in the struggle of the crown prince.”

"What's going on in the desert?"

Liu Jing asked.

"According to the news, the Hu people's royal court has issued a royal order to gather people from all tribes... After twenty years of rest and recuperation, they have developed better than the Daxi Empire, which has been full of diseases."

"I guess, this time the Hu people gathered more than 300,000 people."

Upon hearing this, Liu Jing suddenly felt a little heavy and said, "Plus with the Qiang army... can the Daxi Empire be blocked by the current Daxi Empire?"

The old man shook his head and said, "I don't know, but chaos and turmoil are coming."

Liu Jing was silent for a long time and said, "So chaotic and turbulent... I don't know how many people will die..." The old man seemed to see his weakness in his heart, and a cold look gradually appeared on his face: "Twenty-six years ago, when Xijing City fell, were there few people who died?"

“Only chaos and turmoil can we create opportunities.

The chaos and turmoil twenty-six years ago made Liu Jianye the emperor. Similarly, this 26 years later will bring back everything for you and the late emperor captured by the Hu people!”

"Don't forget that Liu Jianye can only be considered your brother, he is also a usurper. Your father is still drinking the smell of fishy food in the Hu court!"

"Let go of your meaningless kindness."

The old man's cold words were like a basin of cold water, poured on Liu Jing's head.

... "Bang!"

A flash of lightning cleaves the deep dark night of Xijing.

The heavy rain poured down.

This is a spring rain! It has been almost three months since spring, and summer is approaching, but the spring rain has always been like a woman who has not yet been in heat. She wants to refuse and still welcome her, but has not come yet, until tonight, and finally broke out.

The world is soaked.

The teacher has left.

In the dim lights, Liu Jing sat on a chair, listening to the sound of the rain and wind blowing outside the window, and seemed to be back in a trance when he was seven years old.

When he was seven years old, his mother died.

That night, it was also raining heavily.

The mother held his hand tightly, her face was pale, and there seemed to be thousands of words in her brown eyes.

"Jing'er, remember... you are not Liu Jianye's son... you are not Liu Jianye's son..." "Your father is on the grassland, in the Hu court..." "Your father is the real emperor of Daxi, the Emperor of Tai'an... Someone will come to find you on the grassland..."... Nightmares like words accompanied Liu Jing for many years, until he was ten years old, when the teacher appeared.

He came from the grassland.
