Chapter 247
"Bring the servant of the Ministry of Rites here." Li Yi turned his head and said to the yamen servant.
Someone set up the table, and Li Yi drank a big bowl of tea, which tasted a bit bitter, but refreshing.
About half a quarter of an hour, the Minister of Rites was escorted over by one left and one right.
His first stop was not the Ministry of Punishment. It was Li Yi who brought people from the East Guard. It is said that he was not very cooperative, so the blood was stained with whipping.
"Fu Lu Shilang sit down, be gentle with your movements, don't touch other people's wounds."
"The Ministry of Punishment is simple, there is nothing to entertain, don't be disgusted by Minister Lu." Li Yi pushed a bowl of tea in front of the Minister of Rites.
The servant of the Ministry of Rites looked close to fifty, and he was very thin. Just looking at his face, he was afraid that he would think that he was someone who was dedicated to learning.
"What needs to be explained, I have already explained," the Minister of Rites said in a hoarse voice.
"It's not an interrogation. The night is long, and Lu Shilang can't sleep even if he wants to. Let's make tea and chat." Li Yi's posture was casual.
The servant of the Ministry of Rites glanced at him, but didn't speak.
"Everyone go down and find a place to rest." Li Yi pushed back the surrounding yamen servants.
After waiting for a while, Li Yi took out a medicine bottle from his arms, and in front of the Minister of Rites, Li Yi sprinkled the medicine powder into his tea bowl.
Violently smashing the medicine bottle on the table, Li Yi clenched his fists and trembled, "My lady went out today and hasn't returned yet. They asked me to try to pour this medicine down for you."
"It's good for everyone."
Li Yi raised his eyes abruptly, his lips trembling, "I, I can only do this, you, just drink."
"Si Shi Lang, what nonsense are you talking about?" The Minister of Rites stared at him, his voice raised a bit.
Li Yi's eyes flickered wildly, and finally showed a ruthless look. With trembling hands, he picked up the bowl of tea and approached the Minister of Rites.
Pinch his mouth open and pour it down.
"My lord, someone from Dongwei is here, and they say it's..."
When the yamen servant who came to report saw this scene, his voice stopped abruptly.
And Li Yi, frightened, dropped the tea bowl in his hand to the ground, and the light green liquid flowed on the ground, which was particularly conspicuous.
The atmosphere froze for a moment.
"What should I do? What should I do?" Li Yi looked terrified and looked at the Minister of Rites for help.
The servant of the Ministry of Rites exchanged bright and dark eyes, seeing that the yamen servant was about to run out as he retreated every step, he lunged forward.
Then, he let the yamen servant knock him out.
"My lord." The yamen servant got up from the ground.
"The play is very good." Li Yi boasted, "Let's go, take someone to the East Wei Division, the next show will be even more exciting."
This kind of big case, how can the minister of the Ministry of Rites handle it.
There is definitely a boss here.
The servant of the Ministry of Rites was woken up by a basin of cold water. Thinking of what happened before he passed out, his expression froze.
As far as the eye can see, it is no longer the Ministry of Punishment, but the East Wei Division! The Minister of Rites' pupils shrank slightly.
What happened after he was knocked out by the yamen servant?Si Jian didn't deal with him?
Why is he still alive, and was brought to East Wei Division.
The head of the Minister of Rituals was spinning wildly, thinking of countermeasures, and he scattered his thoughts with a whip.
"Lu Shilang, you are really surprising." Yin Ding said with a cold face, "I almost let you fool me."
"Who are you looking for, Si Jian?" Yin Ding sneered, "Just that frail scholar, who also wanted to kill someone to silence him, if he slapped him, he would faint."
"It's not good to find anyone, but to find him."
"Incompetent bungler."
"Bring him up and show him to Lu Shilang."
As Yin Ding finished speaking, Li Yi was dragged up. His hair was disheveled, his body was covered in blood, and his head was tilted. If it wasn't for the heaving of his chest, he would have made people think he was dead.
"Tie it on."
Yin Ding waved his hand.
Dongwei immediately tied Li Yi up on the shelf. "Shilang Lu, do you want to recruit them yourself, or do you want us to do it?"
"What kind of handle did the other party have on you to make you grit your teeth so tightly?"
"not talking?"
"Serve honey, and bring a jar of ants." Yin Ding clasped his hands, looking very relaxed.
"You have to cooperate obediently and confess the person behind you. The emperor is merciful, and it may not exhaust the female family members."
"But if you are stubborn, those people will not survive."
"Lu Shilang, you have to think carefully."
No matter what Ren Yinding said, the Minister of Rites didn't say a word.
And this also exhausted Yin Ding's patience, this is a tough bone, and to deal with it, small tricks are useless.
Yin Ding lowered his hands.
Dong Wei immediately tore off the coat of the servant of the Ministry of Rites, spread honey on his wound, and poured the ants out of the jar.
Over time, the frame that was tied to the Minister of Rituals shook violently, and roars came from his mouth.
However, he still had no intention of begging for mercy.
"My lord, I fainted."
Yin Ding frowned, and waved for someone to untie Li Yi.
"Master Si, can you do anything?"
"I'm good at interrogating you East Guards, but I'm useless here." Li Yi flexed his wrists.
"I shouldn't be acting in the next one. If you ask someone, please let me know."
"It's late at night, so I won't bother you with your business."
Li Yi asked someone to help him out.
Yin Ding looked at his figure and lowered his eyes. This plan was Li Yi's idea, to test whether the Minister of Rites was really carrying it for others, and in fact, it was.
This man is very smart.
"Master Si, it's all over, you still have to take care of your body."
After leaving the East Guard Division, on the way back, Li Yi bumped into Zhu Xianzhi. Hearing the other person's caring words, Li Yi smiled gently, "We'll be back now. I wish Duchasi also take good care of your body."
Zhu Xianzhi nodded with a smile, and rode away.
In the past few days, intentionally or unintentionally, Zhu Xianzhi has met Li Yi four or five times, but he didn't say much, just conveying goodwill.
Li Yi leaned on the carriage, what Zhu Xianzhi is best at is lowering your defenses, and in the end, he stabbed the knife at you mercilessly.
Accurate and ruthless.
There are no stars tonight, the night is very dark, and Li Yi can't see his fingers. Li Yi doesn't know what time it is, but it must be dawn.
Huanji turned on the lamp for him and led him into the study all the way.
Without disturbing anyone, Li Yi began to read at night with the lamp on to wash off the blood stains on his body. He wanted to kill all the scholars in the world! Of course, this is just a joke, it is impossible to read at night.
Taking out the character information from the drawer, Li Yi drew a context map.
Judging from the officials under investigation today, both the left and the right are extremely suspicious.
Only at their level can the Minister of Rites not dare to let go.
Lying on the back, Li Yi lit the table. The left minister is the confidant of the Supreme Emperor, and he has done a lot more things for the old Yin than Du Chasi.
It would be a pity not to drag him down with such a good opportunity.
However, how it works requires careful consideration.
Looking at the whitening sky, Li Yi pinched his temples, and if he was not careful, he would be up all night.
After washing his face, he asked Huanji to go to the kitchen to get two large pancakes. Li Yi gnawed on them as he walked. If there is any progress in the emperor's place, Dongwei will definitely report it immediately.
But Dongwei's report does not mean that he can not report, and his attitude has to be well-balanced.
No emperor likes arrogant courtiers, Li Yi is still the time to show himself.
