Qinzhou Inn.
After a farce ended.
Only Li Chengqian and Li Yu were left in the field.
Coming to Li Chengqian, Li Yu slowly spoke.
"Even if you catch him, it won't help."
"When you asked me to go to the government office just now, I already looked through the accounts."
"Those accounts are very clean, and we can't directly convict him..."
to be honest.
Li Yu also wanted to kill Zhang Naikuan.
Because this guy has done too many evil things.
However, there was no evidence of guilt.
Under the current situation, Zhang Naikuan cannot be cured of his crime at all.
On the contrary, Li Chengqian now rashly detains the imperial officials, violating the regulations.
"indeed."
"He does things very cleanly."
"But even if it's done cleanly."
"As long as you are willing to investigate, you can definitely find it."
Li Chengqian looked at Li Yu and said, "Besides, do you think I came to Qinzhou just for Zhang Naikuan?"
"Is not it?"
Li Yu asked suspiciously.
"If it's just for Zhang Naikuan."
"Who can't come?"
Fu Laoliu could take off Zhang Naikuan's head by himself without anyone else.
Li Chengqian said slowly: "What I want is the people's trust."
Li Yu looked at Li Chengqian in confusion, waiting for him to continue.
"The relationship between the court and the people."
"Actually, it's not the rulers and the ruled."
"My father once said that."
"The people build boats for the Lord of Water. The water can carry the boat but also capsize it."
Li Chengqian said: "Because the people trust the imperial court, they will support the imperial court."
"But if one day, the people no longer trust the court."
"This court will naturally not exist."
"Now, what some people in Qinzhou have done is to destroy the people's trust in the court."
"Let the people think that the world is black, not white."
"It also makes the people think that their lives are worthless and not as valuable as these officials."
Li Chengqian pointed to his feet: "And today, my purpose is to rebuild this trust."
"As long as there's trust."
"Our work will be done with twice the result with half the effort."
Today.
Li Chengqian's purpose in dealing with these people.
On the one hand, it is to avenge the deceased.
On the other hand, it was also to show the people of Qinzhou his attitude and Li Chengqian's determination to punish the chaos in Qinzhou.
When the people gradually trusted the court, they gradually trusted him.
There is no need to worry that no one will come to deliver evidence of Zhang Naikuan's crime.
Hear this.
Li Yu finally realized it.
"I see."
Li Yu looked at Li Chengqian blankly and said, "With what happened today, someone will definitely come and sue Zhang Naikuan."
"At that point, we will automatically have evidence."
"My Uncle Li is really smart."
Li Chengqian gave Li Yu a thumbs up.
"Your Highness, please stop praising me."
Li Yu shook his head and smiled: "If I were really smart, I should have thought of it before."
"Hey, hey, hey."
"Whoever can guess this kind of thing in advance is a god."
Li Chengqian waved his hands casually and said.
"So."
Li Yu pursed his lips and said, "What are you going to ask me to do next, Your Highness?"
"Of course we will continue to investigate the case."
He is a prince, a prince.
Not a gangster, not a bandit.
He couldn't just kill or punish anyone without any reason.
That way.
Let alone the common people who would scold him.
Maybe Li Shimin would have to push him to the ground and give him a good education.
so.
He must find evidence before he can continue with this matter.
And there is such a thing as attacking local tyrants.
His favorite thing to do.
Li Yu nodded and then asked: "Then where should we start investigating?"
Li Chengqian pondered for a while.
"This case seems to be official corruption."
"But I always feel that this matter is not that simple."
"If you have time, you can first investigate these merchants in Qinzhou."
Li Chengqian squinted his eyes and said, "This Zhang Naikuan doesn't look like a simple person."
"I don't believe it. These merchants from Qinzhou have nothing to do with him."
"I don't believe it even more. There is no one above him!"
Hear this.
Li Yu paused.
"If there's someone above him."
"Let's continue to investigate like this."
Li Yudao: "I'm afraid I will pull out a big fish hidden in the court."
"That big fish is what I want."
"Otherwise, why would I come all the way here?"
Li Chengqian rubbed his chin and said, "But now that you say that, I'm a little curious."
"What exactly is the support behind him?"
"How dare you speak so rudely in front of me."
…
Chang'an City.
Inside the Manna Hall.
Li Shimin was reading the memorial.
Eunuch Zhou ran in from outside.
He said: "Your Majesty, there is news from His Highness."
"Um……"
Li Shimin asked without raising his head: "What move did this guy do again?"
Eunuch Zhou replied: "I heard that many people were killed and Zhang Naikuan was also arrested."
"Zhang Naikuan?"
"Is it the county magistrate of Qinzhou?"
Li Shimin thought for a moment and said.
"Exactly."
Eunuch Zhou nodded in agreement.
"That is not bad."
"It's not out of line after all."
Li Shimin smiled slightly.
Continue to read the memorial in hand.
for him.
What is a county magistrate?
One person died, and there were still a lot of people trying to make up for it.
As long as Li Chengqian didn't break the truth.
That's nothing.
Hear what he said.
Eunuch Zhou couldn't help but grin secretly.
Your son did this without any evidence.
If we go back to investigate, you will also be scolded.
But this.
He didn't dare to say.
Eunuch Zhou slowly spoke: "Your Majesty, do you want me to send a few people to protect His Highness?"
"unnecessary."
"This kid is more capable than you and I thought."
Li Shimin put down the memorial in his hand: "Besides, didn't I ask you to mobilize the Qianzi camp to send it to him?"
"As long as Qian Ziying is here and his Dong Palace Six Rate, no one can hurt him."
That's true.
Eunuch Zhou had seen with his own eyes what Li Chengqian was capable of.
Eunuch Zhou was also aware of the fighting power of the Sixth Army of the East Palace and the Qianzi Camp.
Those are unique existences in the world.
only.
He was still a little uneasy.
"But Your Majesty."
"Qinzhou is not the capital after all."
"Those people themselves recognize you or not others."
"If someone is up to no good or deliberately causing trouble."
"Your Highness, I'm afraid there is something..."
Eunuch Zhou did not continue.
Because those words are treasonous.
But with the preparations ahead of him.
Li Shimin should be able to understand what he meant.
but.
Li Shimin didn't care about this.
"It's okay to make a fuss!"
"It would be good to let him go and have a big fight like he did in Liangzhou."
"And these guys in Qinzhou are indeed a bit outrageous."
Li Shimin smiled slightly and said: "It really needs to be rectified..."
