It turned out that Mu Lan was looking for silver everywhere that day, and finally found the palace to ask for help from the imperial concubine.
The imperial concubine only made one request, which was that she must not tell others that the silver was given by herself.
Mu Lan didn't think much about it at the time and agreed, which led to a big misunderstanding.
Mu Lan happily explained to the people around him that this deputy general was like a vegetable and felt that he was about to see the end of his life.
However, he saw the end, but he did not see how he reached the end, because just when Mu Lan finished speaking, the eldest prince suddenly rushed in with a group of people.
Mulan was completely bewildered upon seeing the eldest prince. What was wrong with this man? Was he really going to go to such lengths to investigate?
"Grand Prince, what are you doing? Are you going to search the entire military camp?"
The eldest prince did not pay much attention to Mulan, but instead focused his entire attention on the deputy general.
"Deputy General Li, I have been ordered to investigate Young General Mu's corruption. Please accompany me."
Even the dumb deputy commander understood that this was not an investigation into Mulan's corruption, but an investigation into who in the entire military camp was betraying their own people.
In the end, the eldest prince ordered his men to carry the deputy general away, but Mulan foolishly rushed forward to save him.
"Your Highness Prince Yu, please wait a moment. This is my own doing and has nothing to do with anyone else. I also borrowed money from the Imperial Concubine to raise horses and have never embezzled a cent from the army. This has nothing to do with my deputy general. You cannot take him away!"
The eldest prince was really ashamed. How come Mulan still didn't understand even at this point?
"General Mu, when you have time, go back and ask Mu Chan if he's investigating you for corruption and bribery. The money you used to buy the horse seemed to be from the imperial concubine, but it was actually from my father!"
The eldest prince spoke sadly for a while, then he pushed the deputy general away and left, leaving Mulan standing there, confused. What did she mean by "given by the emperor"?
But the eldest prince just told me to go ask Mu Chan, so I should go home.
As a result, Mulan exploded when asked this question.
"That's impossible! Lieutenant General Li has been with me through thick and thin for two or three years. How could he possibly betray me? He just recommended the horse dealer to me. I don't believe he's a traitor!"
Mu Chan shook his head and didn't want to argue with his elder brother. He just wanted to wait and see what happened after the truth was revealed.
However, after the investigation, Mu Lan was slapped in the face. This Lieutenant General Li had already defected to the Wen family.
However, Master Wen was very smart. When trying to win people over, he would not show up in person, but would let one of his aides do it.
So after all the trouble, all the matters were concentrated on an old aide and advisor in Prime Minister Wen's home.
The three brothers looked at each other, looking at the pile of evidence, but they couldn't find any evidence that could directly prove that Prime Minister Wen was forming a clique for personal gain.
"Second brother, third brother, have we fought a useless battle? Now that Prime Minister Wen has thrown that teacher out, he has been cleared of all blame."
The second prince also frowned tightly. After going around in such a big circle, he still failed to hit the vital point.
The third prince was even more anxious and scratching his head. He had been in charge of the interrogation during this period, and after going through so much trouble, he still couldn't find where Prime Minister Wen was.
"Brother, my whips are about to catch fire, but everyone says it was that legal advisor who contacted them. The Wen family also says it was the legal advisor who used their family's name to act on his own. Now even the legal advisor is giving such a false testimony. What should we do?"
In the end, the Second Prince was still clear-headed. He couldn't help but sigh and said, "It's useless. Let's just close the case. There's nothing more to find out!"
How could the two brothers accept this? Even if they were unwilling, there was nothing they could do. The witnesses, evidence, and even the confessions all pointed to this master.
"Are you just going to let it go like this, Second Brother? We've gone through so much trouble just to get rid of a disloyal advisor in the Prime Minister's Mansion?"
The second prince turned around and thought for a moment, and decided that this matter really could not be investigated further.
"Stop investigating here, Master. If you continue, you'll shake the foundation of the country. Don't forget that our ultimate goal is to protect the Mu family and stabilize the entire Wanchao Society."
The eldest prince was the first to react, and finally sighed helplessly.
"It can only be this way. If we deal with the court officials before the Ten Thousand Dynasties Conference, the other countries will think that our dynasty is weak and that there is internal unrest. If a war breaks out, the people will suffer!"
The third prince was so angry that he slapped his thigh hard.
"It's really frustrating. We were clearly about to send the Wen family to the guillotine, but we stopped here. I'm really unwilling to accept this. I'll go check it out again!"
"That's enough, Master Yaoguang. How else do you want to investigate? Do you have to cause rivers of blood and panic among the people? The fox will reveal its tail sooner or later. Don't kill too much."
The three brothers were discussing things here, and it happened that the emperor was standing at the door.
But after listening to his three sons discussing for a long time, he decided not to go in, and brought a large group of people to the imperial concubine's palace.
At this time, Yao Guangyue was calculating with the system the rewards they had received for leaving the palace this time.
[System, have you calculated it yet? Why are you so slow in calculating the plot collapse value? Did your physical education teacher teach you math?]
[Host, please don't be anxious. You need to increase everything. If you lose even a little bit, won't you be at a loss?]
After a lot of nagging from the system, I finally got it done.
[Here it comes, it's all settled. Congratulations to the host. The plot's collapse value has reached 60%.]
Yao Guangyue’s eyes widened instantly. She had just been out for a trip and the price had increased so much!
[No way, it increased so much all of a sudden? ]
[Congratulations to the host. Thirteen percent of this comes from the successful handling of the iron mine corruption case, the conclusion of the trial of corruption cases along the way, the recovery of the Crown Prince, the safe return of Mu Chan, the discovery and control of the gold mine, the resolution of conflicts among merchants, and the proper resettlement of disaster victims.]
All the things added up have increased by 13%, but this number sounds like a lot. In fact, is there more that has been done?
[System, are you trying to trick me? Why do I feel like I've done so much?!]
[Reminder host, it's not over yet. Congratulations to the host for gaining 10% of Faith Points, bringing the total to 30%. Congratulations to the host for upgrading the system store, which can be redeemed for high-end items. This system has been upgraded to provide the host with more convenience and more viewing permissions!]
After going out, the faith value increased so quickly, and the entire system was upgraded, which made Yao Guangyue very happy.
[System, our mission is almost complete!]
[Congratulations, host. In recognition of your excellent performance, the system has gifted you a Resurrection Pill. This is a high-level medicine, please keep it safe.]
