"What's wrong with that?" If Nangong Jing or Lin Jiuxi could be captured, then for the emperor, most of the things he worried about day and night would be solved.

"Your Majesty, if the people who came to the capital to rescue people were not Nangong Jing or Lin Jiuxi, but just subordinates, then the Ministry of Justice's tactic of luring them into a trap would be a loss of both the wife and the army. After all, who knows if the people who came are really them? Or maybe they are some people from the martial arts world who were entrusted by someone. What should we do if we alert the enemy?" The Minister of Revenue analyzed rationally.

When the emperor heard this, he thought it made sense.

"The Minister of Revenue is wrong." General Lin stood up and refuted: "Although we are not sure who wants to rescue the white thief, one thing is clear, that is, the person who came must be invited by Nangong Jing and his men. So if that's the case, after they rescued the people, they must have contacted Nangong Jing and his men before they could send them over. Then we can take this opportunity to find out the location of Nangong Jing and his men to exchange people, and use their tricks against them. Then we can catch Nangong Jing in one fell swoop, wouldn't it be wonderful!"

"General Lin is right. If we are sure that the people coming are Nangong Jing and Lin Jiuxi, then why would we spend so much effort? We can just close the city gates and the Yulin Army can catch them even if they dig three feet into the ground! It is precisely because we are not sure that we have to use so many means." The Assistant Minister of the Ministry of War received a signal from his superior and came out to help General Lin.

The Minister of Revenue still didn't want to make a big fuss for such a false accusation, "But have you ever thought that even though it's like luring someone into a trap, if something happens, the people around here are innocent."

Who cares about the common people living around the Ministry of Justice?

"Minister of Finance, I think you are old. Can't you even calculate something so simple?"

The emperor gave orders to the Ministry of Justice, ordering them to cooperate with the Yulin Army, to attack from both inside and outside, to surround the enemy secretly, and to capture the man.

Li Zhongshan had no choice but to agree.

But he was afraid that he would stop him from making meritorious contributions while serving his sentence, so he immediately said, "Doesn't the Minister of Revenue read the briefing? How many households live around the Ministry of Justice? If you care about these hundreds of households, but don't care about the land occupied by Nangong Jing, and don't care about those who died in the war? You are the Minister of Revenue, and you are the best at calculating. I'm afraid you can calculate these more clearly than a rough man like me. How can you say such a thing?"

If the person coming is Nangong Jing or Lin Jiuxi, capture him directly.

Although the old Minister of Revenue felt aggrieved, he was angry for a while, so he handed in his official seal and retired to enjoy his old age.

I can only watch others rely on their fathers to gain the favor of His Majesty, and get promoted and rich.

You know, who would dare to live in such a vicious place if they have a little money? Everyone knows that the number of people who died in the Ministry of Justice is really more than that sold in the mass graves.

The emperor's face turned cold when he heard this.

"Then you are just old, and it's time for you to go back and have a good rest!" The emperor did not like this minister who always contradicted his opinions, and took the opportunity to seize power.

He was indignant and went to the wine shop to get drunk. Then he went back to his house and called his adviser to discuss the matter.

It is hard to keep people motivated if there is only coercion but no inducement. However, no matter how reluctant one is, one must first save the life that needs to be saved.

The Minister of Justice threw his sleeves and said, "If you had a family background like that, I would not dare to blame you."

"Then... why didn't you call Minister Liu to deal with this matter? Didn't he catch the criminal? It's not just my fault..." Li Zhongshan didn't expect that he would encounter such a disaster just by playing with a beauty.

But even if it is done well, it is useless! There are so many ministers in front of him. As soon as the Minister of Revenue left, he was replaced by someone else. He has worked hard to get to his current position, and his ancestors are very proud of it. If he wants to move up, I'm sorry, his father didn't leave him this opportunity.

"Have you abandoned hundreds of thousands of people in Langzhou, Liuzhou, Jizhou, and Qinzhou for the sake of a few dozen households?"

General Lin sneered in his heart, thinking that the old man had become stupid from reading too much and was too pedantic.

If the person coming is a subordinate sent by them, or some gangster, they will use the methods used in the dungeon of the Ministry of Justice to turn him against the government.

The reason is simple. Liu Shizhong's father is the current Minister of Rites, and he is a colleague of the Minister of Punishment. Moreover, the Ministry of Rites manages the assessment of officials, which means that the Ministry of Rites usually does not take care of things, like a receptionist. But in fact, if you want to get promoted, you have to please the people in the Ministry of Rites.

Li Zhongshan told the matter to his counselor, who twisted his beard and said, "My lord, this matter is indeed very serious. I'm afraid you must be very careful."

The Minister of Revenue was sweating profusely and quickly explained, "That's not the case. It's just that I haven't considered it as comprehensively as General Lin."

"What's the use of being careful? If we can't catch the person, I'm afraid I'll be the one to go in." Li Zhongshan said distressedly.

After all, as the Shangshu said, this is something that could cost them their heads.

The Minister of Justice naturally agreed without hesitation, and then turned around and threw the order to Li Zhongshan, warning him: "I haven't reported the matter between you and Minister Liu to His Majesty yet, so I'll leave this matter to you. If there is any mistake, both you and I will lose our heads."

The Minister of Finance heard the doubt in the emperor's tone and said, "Your Majesty, please understand. I am a loyal and devoted minister and I have no such intention!"

"But if they take the prisoners away and we fail to catch them, I'm afraid Your Majesty will be even more angry." Mou Shi said worriedly.

Li Zhongshan supported him, providing him with food, shelter, money and beauties, but that was not given for free. The higher Li Zhongshan rose, the more he could get.

If something happened to Li Zhongshan, he would not be able to escape. It was a kind of symbiosis where everyone prospers together and everyone suffers together. So he was really a little worried.

Li Zhongshan sighed, "Needless to say. If this really happens, I'm afraid His Majesty will have to take my head."

"In that case, why don't you transfer the prisoners to another place first? That way, even if Nangong Jing and the others send people over, even if we can't catch them, we won't lose the prisoners." The counselor thought of a safe way.
