"It was the old King of Liang who invited me here. He said that he would help me in the court and help me get transferred out of the capital as soon as possible. He also guaranteed that I would go to the northwest to work under the King of Xiaoliang to realize my ambition."
Li Yi squinted his eyes, savoring these words carefully, and then said: "It's that simple. Old King Liang is not the kind to help others. What did he ask you to do?"
Hearing this, Cao Qingyan, Su Wuchen and others all looked sideways and listened.
"He..." Qin Jin hesitated, thinking about how to say something to absolve himself of the guilt.
Li Yi would not give him that much time, and glared, "Hurry up, don't make me angry."
"promise!"
"I'm going to say that it was the old Liang King who forced me to be his internal correspondent. I was grateful for His Majesty's favor in promoting me and refused directly." Qin Jin looked righteous and awe-inspiring. Not to mention, everyone present There are not a few people who believe it.
But Li Yi no longer believed him, and was even seriously disgusted with him. He narrowed his eyes and sneered: "Oh, in that case, I should thank you."
"No, I don't dare. Although I am a humble person, I still have the heart to serve His Majesty and serve Da Feng. This has been my determination since I was a child, and it has never changed." Qin Jin broke out in a cold sweat from nervousness.
Immediately, he hit his forehead on the ground, a look of righteousness appeared on that young face, and he almost shed tears.
Seeing this situation, many people were deeply moved. Su Wuchen was even more shaken and filled with emotions.
Perhaps he is really a good minister who is not afraid of power and serves the country wholeheartedly. Although his temperament is a bit unstable, his passion is remarkable.
"In that case, I have something I can't figure out, and I want to ask you for advice." Li Yi looked sharply and smiled lightly.
"I dare not, please ask Your Majesty!" Qin Jin lowered his head and said respectfully.
"Since you are working for me, why did you hide in the water when I came?"
"According to common sense, shouldn't you take the initiative to stand up and accuse Old Liang Wang of what he did?"
"And did I find you with great difficulty?" Li Yi asked with a smile, his tone was very cold.
Qin Jin's heart pounded, he swallowed hard, stumbled, and couldn't answer for a while, his face looked very flustered.
Li Yi continued to press, "Tell me, why did King Liang force the middle-aged shopkeeper to sign the contract?"
"And what is your relationship with this contract?"
"No...no, it has nothing to do with me!" Qin Jin became even more panicked.
"Okay, you said it doesn't matter. Then let me ask you, what kind of promise is the old Liang King making to you? I'm afraid it's more than just empty words, right?"
Li Yi glared, "Tell me, did I gift you this house?"
"ah!"
Qin Jin exclaimed and collapsed on the ground, his face pale and panicked, "No, no, absolutely not. I didn't accept it, and I don't know anything."
Just because he was so panicked proved everything that he had betrayed Li Yi.
Li Yi's eyes were sharp and he deceived calmly, and said directly: "Qin Jin, in front of me, you still dare to talk nonsense and try to make excuses. The owner has already confessed that Old Liang King gave this house to you."
What's the meaning?
Wasn't the middle-aged store owner seriously injured in a stabbing?
When did you say this?
Su Wuchen suddenly realized that His Majesty was deliberately deceiving him. I have to say that His Majesty was still smart!
At this moment, Qin Jin was finally scared, his eyes were horrified, and he shouted quickly: "No, that's not the case, he is spitting blood, he is slandering me!"
"I didn't want it at all, it was the old King Liang who insisted on giving it to me!"
"ah!"
He suddenly realized that he had said something wrong and quickly covered his mouth with panic on his face.
But now I realize it’s too late!
Li Yizheng stared at him with a sneer, "It seems that Old Liang King has spent a lot of money on you?"
"Tell me, what does he want from you?"
Qin Jin's face became more and more ugly, and he hesitated to speak.
But Li Yi didn't have that much time to waste with him. He raised his leg and kicked him hard. This bastard didn't tell the truth and was full of evil intentions. Li Yi hated his style!
Moreover, he greatly disappointed Li Yi and the people of Sun Tingzong.
They all had high expectations for Qin Jin, hoping that he could grow into a minister of the Gale Dynasty, but he ended up with this kind of virtue.
Now it seems that he is not even as good as a sycophant, not even as good as Old Liang King and the others. At least they are not so hypocritical. This guy is a complete hypocrite!
"Plop" sound.
Qin Jin was thrown to the ground hard, his forehead hit the stone, he screamed, and blood spurted out.
At the same time, an envelope also fell out.
When Qin Jin saw something falling out, he was shocked and started to crawl around trying to snatch it. He didn't even try to hide it, and he snatched it in a desperate manner.
But no matter how much he robs, can he rob Qinglong?
Qinglong grabbed his ankle and threw him to pieces. Then he calmly took the letter away and put it respectfully in front of Li Yi, "Your Majesty, look at it."
"Don't... don't look, this is my thing, it's mine!" Qin Jin looked panicked.
But who is Qinglong, one of the four commanders of the Internal Machinery Supervisor? He directly punched him and knocked him to the ground, making him wail in pain.
Others were also very curious. Could it be that it was just a letter, so Qin Jin was so shocked?
It can be seen that this letter is really extraordinary!
Li Yi tore open the envelope and glanced at it. His expression suddenly changed, and his cheeks instantly turned red with rage.
Others didn't know why and didn't dare to get close to watch.
It wasn't until Li Yi handed the letter to Cao Qingyan that Su Wuchen and others started to read it curiously.
But their expressions were similar to Li Yi's, they were all shocked.
"real or fake!"
"This...this is actually a letter of appointment!" Cao Qingyan was so frightened that he almost went crazy.
This is a letter of appointment, signed by King Fu, and has a jade seal.
Unexpectedly, Qin Jin was promoted to the chief assistant of the cabinet and the commander-in-chief of six departments. He was truly inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people.
Unexpectedly, King Fu still valued him so much?
Qin Jin knelt on the ground, his face pale and helpless. Now that Li Yi knew the secret, he was probably going to be doomed.
With the emperor's temper towards traitors today, I'm afraid he will definitely die.
Li Yi stared at him coldly, his teeth chattering, and his face glowed with a frightening coldness.
King Fu was really ruthless, and he actually took action so quickly.
And the old King of Liang, what does this old guy want? In terms of power, he dominates the government and the public. In terms of financial resources, he is richer than the national treasury. In terms of status, he is the King of Liang, a prince, and he is hereditary. How can he still do it? Not satisfied?
If Mrs. Wang hadn't told him, I might still have been kept in the dark. As for Qin Jin, he would most likely be promoted soon, first to the Ministry of War, then to the New Army, and then...
He didn't dare to think about it anymore.
"Prince Fu, you are really generous. You can make a blank check as soon as you say it. It's amazing!" He said lightly, but his eyes seemed to be bursting with fire.
Cao Qingyan, Su Wuchen and others immediately realized that this was a huge conspiracy.
Use Qin Jin to infiltrate Li Yi's side, and then pass on information to them. If there is a chance to command the troops, he might betray him at some point.
Looking back now, it’s really scary!
"Qin Aiqing, don't you want to explain it to me again?" Li Yi clenched his fists tightly, his heart burning with anger.
As for Qin Jin, it seemed as if the sky was falling. It was over. His life was completely over.
Li Yi took a deep breath, his eyes full of solemn light, "Are you really not going to explain it!?"
"Prince Fu is really generous to you. He directly gave you a cabinet minister. I admire you. Have you become a member of Prince Fu's camp now?"
Qin Jin trembled slightly for no reason, raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat, gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty, I have never promised Prince Fu, let alone be the chief minister of the cabinet. I am still loyal to Your Majesty."
"I plan to face the Holy Spirit tomorrow morning and tell the whole story."
"Haha?" Li Yi sneered, "So, I wrongly blamed you?"
Qin Jin lowered his head, "I dare not ask for credit."
Taking credit?
Invite you to Ma’s merit!
"Now I know. King Fu wants you to infiltrate me and deliver information for them. In return, I will give you this letter and this house. I'm afraid I will also give you a lot of golden tickets, right?" Li Yi As he speculated, he noticed his fingers inadvertently touching his pocket.
Only if you have something precious in your pocket will you subconsciously touch it and lose it?
This speculation shocked everyone present.
King Fu is so evil-minded that he couldn't help but jump out as soon as he was released.
"I never thought that you, a star from a humble family, would be such a disgusting person. It's so disgusting!" Li Yi's eyes were split with disgust.
Thanks to Mrs. Wang's casual mention, otherwise when he went to the New Army, the New Army would be finished.
Qin Jin was shocked and frightened, and gritted his teeth and refused to admit it, "Your Majesty, I have never done such a thing. I swear to God that I will be loyal to Your Majesty. If I violate it, I will not die!"
"I beg your Majesty to see clearly and give me justice!"
But Li Yi has already seen through him, so what's the use of trying to quibble?
Moreover, the oath is inherently false.
"Snapped!"
Yiji slapped him across the face.
Qin Jin was slapped on the spot and his mouth was bleeding and he was dizzy.
"snort!"
Li Yi snorted coldly: "Shut your stinky mouth, I don't want to listen to your beeping, I don't bother to tell you, if something happens, no one will protect you, King Fu, King Liang, they hope you die early .”
Hearing this, Qin Jin gave up resistance completely and slapped himself hard.
He knew that he was bound to die. He had betrayed the emperor, how could he survive?
But at this moment, Li Yi suddenly said: "Do you want to live or die?"
