Su Jiangtao rarely appeared in the original owner's memory. Later, it seemed that he was killed by someone, and An Jingzhi didn't have much impression of him.
But no matter what, he would take revenge on the spot if he had a grudge, and there was no point in letting someone sacrifice the lives of an entire family.
What's more, Hu Weiguang is his father's man, so Su Jiangtao is equivalent to his younger brother. If his younger brother is not well behaved, he can just teach him a lesson.
Even after he walked out of the An Mansion safely, Su Jiangtao was still at a loss.
Hu Weiguang could see that An Jingzhi really had no intention of making a fuss, so his nephew was lucky to have saved his life.
Otherwise, with An Zhongyi's protective personality, not only his nephew's family, but even he himself might not end up in any good situation.
"You, go back and recuperate, and behave yourself from now on. If you cause any more trouble, you may not be as lucky as you are today. I may not be your uncle, but I know he is a high-ranking official, but in this capital, there are many people who can crush us. You should thank Master An."
Su Jiangtao's father thanked Hu Weiguang profusely, "Brother-in-law, thank you so much this time. If it weren't for you, Jiang Tao, Jiang Tao really doesn't know what to do." There was fear in his expression.
Hu Weiguang patted Su Jiangtao's father on the shoulder and glanced at Su Jiangtao, who was looking down. "If you have nothing to do, go around in front of Master An more often. It will be good for you. But you must know your place, otherwise you will bring disaster to the family."
…
According to the law, Censor Liu's family members were originally to be executed together, but a group of officials led by Lord Song in the court pleaded for his family, and the main relatives were subsequently exiled instead.
An Zhongyi is a ruthless man who always adheres to the principle of eradicating the roots of the trouble. Of course, he will not leave any trouble for himself. Censor Liu has two sons who may become trouble when they grow up.
Censor Liu was well-fed and wealthy, and his family members could not be said to be completely innocent.
If you enjoy rights, you must naturally bear responsibilities.
He asked the people from the East Factory to secretly follow the exile team and find an opportunity to eliminate the whole family through an accident such as a landslide.
Who would have thought that just as they were about to take action, they met another group of people who rescued Censor Liu and his family.
East Factory.
After listening to the report for a long time, An Zhongyi suddenly laughed, but the sound was a bit harsh to the people in the East Factory, making people feel creepy.
"No wonder, our family always said that Censor Liu, who was so weak, would rather die than reveal the mastermind behind it. It turns out that he had already arranged a retreat for his family."
"But this is a way out. I'm afraid Censor Liu is mistaken. No one can save the people we want to kill. Send out orders to strictly investigate all the cities and towns along the way that the Liu family is exiled. Check them thoroughly for us. We don't believe they can hide in the sky."
An Zhongyi lowered his eyes, then stared at Zhang Baotian, who was kneeling before him, with his sharp eagle-like eyes. "Send another group of people to keep a close eye on our Prime Minister, Mr. Song."
Zhang Baotian quickly replied, "It's the factory manager!"
Before Zhang Baotian left, he asked him to help call Liu Qianhua in.
Liu Qianhua was about to go in, but after hesitating for a while, he pulled the person next to him and asked, "How does the factory manager feel?" so that he could be mentally prepared.
Zhang Baotian shook his head and said nothing, but it seemed as if he had said everything.
Liu Qianhua understood what was going on, and as soon as he entered, before he even saw anyone, he knelt down prostrate himself.
"Long live the factory master!"
An Zhongyi glanced at him indifferently, nodded, and asked someone to stand up and answer.
"Do you know why we asked you to come in?"
Liu Qianhua stood up swiftly and replied respectfully, "Master, I've already found the person you asked me to investigate who was trying to sow discord between you and the young master."
Seeing An Zhongyi's expression ease a little, Liu Qianhua breathed a sigh of relief.
Of course, he didn't dare to deliberately fool the other party, otherwise it would only bring greater disaster.
Liu Qianhua told everything he had found out recently.
"According to what you said, it's still just those few people. That damn old man Song is still clinging to his position even at his age. When Your Majesty wanted to rule the country, he repeatedly blocked it. Now that Your Majesty is ruling the country, he still can't clearly understand his position in front of Your Majesty."
Liu Qianhua was equally indignant. "Master, you are His Majesty's most favored Ninth Prince, and those people hate you just as much. They keep throwing dirty water on you, simply wanting to ruin your reputation and leave you infamous for eternity. But they never imagined that you are of such high character that you don't care about reputation at all. Not only have they failed to help, but you've actually made His Majesty trust you even more!"
"I think they can't bear to see you doing well. Now that you have an heir, if they can't sow discord, they might come up with another plan."
An Zhongyi glanced at Liu Qianhua who was talking nonsense below. He knew very well what kind of person he was. Although he had not done anything to oppress the people, he was not a man of noble character either.
His tense expression softened a lot. "You are right. They will definitely attack Jingzhi again. I will have your people protect Jingzhi closely. If anything happens to him again, all of you will be killed for our family."
After a pause, his smile became somewhat sinister. "It is impolite not to reciprocate. Since Lord Song gave me a gift, I must give him a gift in return. Otherwise, Lord Song will think that I am a vulgar person."
An Zhongyi was originally illiterate. In order to climb up in the palace, he catered to the emperor's interests and gradually learned a lot of words by following the little emperor. When the little emperor was not yet emperor, he followed him and often copied books for him as punishment.
…
"What are you doing? What are you doing? Our master is a secretary of the Central Secretariat! If you dare to mess around again, we will definitely report you to His Majesty!"
Liu Qianhua scratched his ears with his little finger, looked at them indifferently, waved his hand to ask the people around him to move faster, his face full of impatience. He had heard such words a lot, and his ears were already callused.
"Master Liu, it has been found."
Liu Qianhua pretended to be furious, "Sure enough! Take me to see it!"
Afterwards, Liu Qianhua and his group came to the backyard of Mr. Wang's house, a member of the Zhongshu Society, and found large pits on the ground. Next to the pits were open boxes filled with armor, weapons and other things.
"Good Lord Wang! Since they are hoarding weapons and plotting rebellion, arrest their entire family and send them to the East Factory Prison!"
The affairs of the Wang family soon spread throughout the court and the country.
No one dared to plead for the other party for the crime of treason, and the person would be killed if he was touched. Even though they knew very well that it was the people from the East Factory who did this, they could not provide any evidence to prove that it was the other party who did this. The thing was dug out from the Wang family, and the Secretary Wang was doomed.
"Lawless, lawless, this is simply lawless! In broad daylight, they actually framed Lord Wang for treason! An Zhongyi is simply too outrageous!"
