Zhao Lin transmigrated to the Great Qi Dynasty, a period never before seen in history, becoming the long-lost true young master of the Zhenbei Marquis's family.
Although his predecessor w...
Li Xingye stepped forward and said, "I'm here!"
"You will be the imperial envoy to Jiujiang Province to investigate the mass dismissal of officials from the Jiujiang Governor's Office. If it is Zhao Lin's fault, he will be dismissed on the spot and escorted back to Beijing. If it is the fault of those officials, they will never be employed again."
"I obey the decree!"
Li Xingye said loudly.
Prince Yu and his party were all confused.
Let Li Xingye investigate, what can he find out?
Prince Yu immediately stepped forward and said, "Father, Lord Li should send someone to Zhao Lin. He is the person involved. I'm afraid he won't be able to find out what happened."
Emperor Chengping asked impatiently, "What do you want to say?"
Prince Yu said, "I believe the investigation should be conducted by someone who has no connection with Zhao Lin or the officials of the Jiujiang Governor's Office. This would be fair."
Fu Chengwang asked, "Could this person be referring to His Royal Highness Prince Yu?"
Prince Yu said solemnly, "If your Majesty allows, I am willing to make this trip."
Since I can't make things difficult for Zhao Lin, I'll just kill him.
As long as Prince Yu goes, are you afraid that no problems will be found?
Emperor Chengping looked hesitant.
"I think Your Highness Prince Yu is right."
Shao Yutang hurriedly followed and said, "It's not that Lord Li is partial, but he is Zhao Lin's master. If he goes to investigate Zhao Lin, it will easily lead to criticism. It's better to let Prince Yu go."
Now that Prince Yu's party has taken action, the Prince's party naturally cannot sit idle.
The Crown Prince stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, Zhao Lin is the Governor of a province, a high-ranking official. How can you conduct such an investigation lightly? It would be better for me to go and investigate the matter on your behalf. I can then make a decision on whether to reward or punish him, without disappointing your subjects."
"Yes." Emperor Chengping nodded in agreement.
Prince Yu quickly said, "Zhao Lin and the Crown Prince had a close relationship. It would be no different for the Crown Prince to investigate than for Lord Li to investigate."
The prince said, "You can't go there. Your brother-in-law has a conflict with Zhao Lin. If you go, who knows if they will conduct a fair investigation?"
Shao Yutang said, "Your Highness, the Crown Prince is wrong. Prince Yu has always been fair and impartial. He will not show favoritism."
Li Chengqian immediately said, "You're kidding! When it comes to fairness, who in the entire court can compare to Lord Li Xingye?"
All the ministers nodded.
Li Xingye is famous for his fairness and strictness.
If it was really Zhao Lin who forced those officials to resign, Li Xingye would have been able to deal with Zhao Lin without any further words.
"Lord Li is indeed fair, but he is Zhao Lin's master, so we still have to avoid suspicion."
Shao Yutang did not flinch at all and said, "Your Majesty, I would like to recommend someone to investigate."
Emperor Chengping had already lost his patience and asked, "Who?"
Shao Yutang said, "Master Liu Zhengyan, the son of the Marquis of Changning."
Emperor Chengping looked at Liu Zhengyan and said, "Lord Liu, are you willing to go?"
Liu Zhengyan was hiding behind the crowd watching the excitement, but unexpectedly Shao Yutang pulled him out. He quickly stepped forward and said, "I am willing to share your worries, Your Majesty."
Because of Zhao Mingyue, Marquis Changning had long been considered a member of Prince Yu's party.
The Marquis of Changning wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to fight for the throne to turn the Marquisate into a royal palace, so he had already become involved in the corruption.
As the Minister of Personnel, Liu Zhengyan happened to have the qualifications to conduct the investigation.
"Okay, Lord Liu, please go." Emperor Chengping said quickly.
He had long been impatient.
Fu Chengwang wanted to say something but stopped.
If there is nothing wrong with Zhao Lin, there is no need to worry about Liu Zhengyan checking.
If the problem can be found, even if it is not Liu Zhengyan, Fu Chengwang will not let Zhao Lin go.
So, why stop it?
