"Brother Emperor, are you going to send someone to keep an eye on them?"
Fubao's tone began to grow angry: "They have harmed so many people. Should we help them get revenge?"
That’s more than ten lives.
"It's not just about avenging them. Fubao, you should know that those who died are dead, but if the bad guys continue to live, they will harm more people."
Li Tianze continued to guide, Fubao is smart, but he is still young and there are still many things he needs to know.
"So, we must punish the bad guys and also make an example of them, letting all officials know that Your Majesty will absolutely not allow court officials to act recklessly, right?"
"Yes, Fubao is really smart."
Li Tianze felt that Fubao was definitely the smartest child.
Even his brothers who wanted to compete with him for the throne might not be able to think so clearly.
Knowing Li Tianze's plan, Fubao just waited for the Lu family to be destroyed.
Gu Jinguo had been secretly investigating the Lu family for a long time. Based on this incident, he finally got hold of the Lu family's evidence.
In the evening, Li Tianze and Fubao were having dinner when Gu Jinguo came to the palace to report.
"Your Majesty, we have already found out that those women were raped by the second son of the Lu family. In order to prevent this matter from being spread, the Lu family killed those women, but one of them left behind evidence."
"When the woman was defiled, she bit off Mr. Lu's flesh, and she also had Mr. Gu's clothes in her hands."
"Mr. Lu also hired someone to buy those beasts. To save his own life, he also hired a number of people. Those people have been captured and have confessed."
Fu Bao was surprised: "So the one investigating the Lu family this time is Fourth Brother?"
"To be exact, your fourth brother has been investigating the Lu family."
Li Tianze chuckled. The Lu family was not a good family. He noticed something was wrong the last time they attacked the Imperial Master's Mansion, but he never took any action. Instead, he asked Gu Jinguo to investigate secretly.
Now that the evidence is conclusive, it's time to close the net.
"Gu Jinguo, I order you to immediately arrest the Lu family and bring them to justice. All the men in the Lu family must be executed, and the women must be sold."
"yes!"
Gu Jinguo quickly went out to do something. Fubao wanted to call her fourth brother, but her fourth brother just gave her a stopping look.
"Fourth brother hasn't eaten yet."
Fubao was a little unhappy. Eating was a big deal. Fourth brother’s stomach was not very good and he couldn’t be hungry.
"Fubao, it's not easy for anyone to accomplish anything. Your fourth brother wants to fight for what he wants to do, and we should support him."
"But eating doesn't interfere with doing things."
She just didn't understand. Could it be that a meal would delay so many things?
Li Tianze put down his bowl and chopsticks, and took Fubao, who was confused, out of the palace.
"Brother Emperor, where are we going?"
Fubao didn’t quite understand what Li Tianze was going to do, but his footsteps were getting bigger and bigger, so she had no choice but to follow him.
Li Tianze looked back at her short legs that were moving non-stop, but he did not slow down.
By the time they arrived at the Lu family, Gu Jinguo had already read out the imperial edict.
The Lu family was filled with cries and howls. They wanted to escape, crying out for injustice, and wanted to take the opportunity to slip away.
But no one could escape. The people brought by Gu Jinguo were all really capable and would not give them any hope of escape.
"Gu Jinguo, you are seeking revenge for your personal gain. I want to see the emperor and ask for justice."
Lord Lu yelled, and Gu Jinguo threw the evidence directly in his face.
"Justice? What you call justice is harming so many women? What you call justice is killing people to silence them."
Lord Lu wanted to deny it, but the evidence was real and he had no way to deny it.
"But, but I have been an official for many years. Even if I have no merits to the court, I have worked hard. The emperor cannot treat me like this."
"Gu Jinguo, please move aside. I am going to see Emperor Ding today. If you don't move aside, I will have to resort to forceful measures."
There was a hint of viciousness in his eyes.
"I won't give in!"
Gu Jinguo waved his hand and the Lu family was controlled.
"The Emperor is not available, but Lord Lu is free. You should think carefully about what else you want to say."
In addition to this incident, the Lu family has countless lives on their hands.
"No, you are wrongly accusing me. I am being wronged."
Lord Lu was taken away with a look of resentment on his face.
"Wow, Fourth Brother is so awesome."
Fubao didn't expect that his fourth brother, who looked quite gentle, could be so domineering when doing things.
Li Tianze turned her little face towards him: "Are you relieved now?"
Fubao nodded quickly: "Well, don't worry, let's go back and eat."
Li Tianze did not agree, but took him outside the prison.
The Lu family was suddenly convicted, and many people knew about it. Those who were close to the Lu family did not dare to speak out at this time.
But some people still came.
"Isn't that Master Liu?"
Fubao was chewing on the candied haws that the jailer had just bought, and was stunned when he saw the person coming.
Lord Liu is not usually close to the Lu family. Why would he come here at this time?
Lord Liu walked all the way to the prison where Lord Lu was imprisoned, not noticing that he was being monitored.
In the prison, Lord Lu no longer had the glory he had in the court. He was in a shabby state. The moment he saw Lord Liu, his eyes lit up.
"Master Liu, what's going on outside? Why aren't they coming to help me?"
Lord Lu also has his own small group. If there are important matters of the court, they will discuss them together on weekdays.
But now that he is in trouble, those people dare not care about him.
Lord Liu sighed and expressed what those people were thinking.
"What a bunch of ungrateful people."
Lord Lu snorted coldly: "What is the emperor's reaction now? Is there any room for pleading?"
"I'm afraid not."
Lord Liu sighed, "The Emperor seems to have decided to execute him. Lord Lu, I'm afraid you'll have to make some sacrifices to save your life."
Lord Lu paced back and forth: "Lord Liu, I have discovered a gold mine. If I tell the emperor about this, he will surely show mercy."
If this had not happened, he would have kept it for himself, but compared to his life, this gold mine is gone.
"Where is the gold mine?"
Lord Liu was a little excited.
"Just..."
Lord Liu finally promised that he would plead for the Lu family, and then left the prison in a hurry.
"Your Majesty, will Lord Liu really plead for the Lu family?"
Fubao was a little confused. Looking at Lord Liu's expression, it didn't seem like that was what he meant.
"We'll know when we see."
The emperor chuckled. These two people didn't take him, the emperor, seriously.
However, until the next day, there was still no response from Lord Liu to plead for mercy.
At the morning court, he, like everyone else, demanded that Lord Lu be executed immediately.
