Chapter 903: Not a friend of the lower officials

Liu’s county magistrate has not been easy in the past few days. I am afraid that he has received a lot of pressure from all sides.

“Master Liu, sit down.” After he walked into the hall, Li Yi stretched out his hand and turned back to Lao Fang and said: “Go and make Master Liu a cup of tea.”

Liu county magistrate sat down with some anxiety, and was taken aback when he saw a few cups with tea on the table.

“A few guests came to the house just now.” Li Mingzhu and Li Xuan did not come out from behind the screen, and Li Yi did not explain too much, looking at him and saying, “These days, I’m hurting Master Liu.”

“Master Li, please don’t say so.” County Order Liu hurriedly got up, clasped his fist and said: “If there were no Master Li, there would be no like Liu Dayou. Today, there are some things that Liu can still distinguish. .”

Li Yi smiled and asked: “Master Liu came here today, but what is the problem? Is it because someone above put pressure on you?”

Liu county magistrate smiled indifferently, and said: “This capital order of your subordinates is your majesty’s capital order, it is the capital order of the people, and other people and other things have nothing to do with me.”

He looked at Li Yi and asked, “I don’t know if Master Li still remembers, the friend who was in the official position?”

Li Yi was startled, thought for a moment, and asked: “Is Lord Liu talking about… the friend of the single eyelid?”

Liu Da nodded a little and said, “Exactly.”

Lao Liu obviously hadn’t put the matter down completely, Li Yi picked up the teacup and sipped it, motioning him to continue.

He looked solemnly and asked: “The lower official will ask Master Li again, is it really impossible for parents with single eyelids to give birth to children with double eyelids?”

Li Yi shook his head and said: “I know this matter may be difficult for Master Liu to accept, but this is indeed a natural law, and there will be hardly any changes from ancient times to the present.”

Looking at Li Yi, county magistrate Liu showed hesitation again on his face, and finally became determined, and said: “Don’t hide from Lord Li, in fact, the person the official said is not a friend of the official.”

He has used this kind of routine countless times, and he never thought that the man was a friend of Liu County magistrate. Li Yi put down the teacup, sighed, and said, “Actually, I already knew it.”

This is the turn of the county magistrate Liu, who is shocked. He looked at Li Yi and asked in disbelief: “Master Li also knows that King Shu is not His Majesty?”

He finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. If Mrs. Li fails in the confrontation with the Cui family, his fate will definitely not be any better. Losing his official hat is still minor, and it may even be a disaster.

But this matter is really important, and there is a life worry at every turn. If it is not for the trust of Lord Li, unless he encounters life and death, he will always bury this secret in his heart.

Unexpectedly, Lord Li had already known about it.

“What did you say?” Li Yi looked at him blankly and asked: “Your single-lidded friend, isn’t it you?”

Liu county magistrate said in surprise: “How can the friend of the subordinate official be the subordinate himself…”

“You mean, Your Majesty…” Li Yi stretched out a hand, motioned him not to speak yet, rubbed his eyebrows, and tried to recall something in his mind.

The old emperor has a single eyelid. This can’t be wrong. The King of Shu has a double eyelid. He also remembers clearly, Cui Guifei, Cui Guifei… The key is Cui Guifei, Cui Guifei only saw a few times, and spent most of the time. It was at night, I really can’t remember…

Bah!

The screen on the side of the lobby fell to the ground with a loud noise.

Looking at the two people who came out from behind the screen, County Order Liu’s body trembled, and his feet suddenly felt a little soft. “Princess, Your Royal Highness…”

Li Yi stood up, looked at Li Mingzhu who came by and asked: “Do you remember whether Concubine Cui has a double eyelid or a single eyelid?”

The expression on Li Mingzhu’s face was a little lost. After a while, his eyes regained, and he looked at him and slowly said: “Jing Guo regards double eyelid as her beauty, and the harem chooses her concubine, and she also asked for double eyelid. In the Cui family, the right is in the hands, and only they can make an exception to send a woman with a single eyelid into the palace and take the position of a noble concubine.”

Li Yi didn’t quite understand those people who use their knives for double eyelids before. Single eyelid and double eyelid, each has its own beauty. I didn’t expect that the palace draft would discriminate against single eyelid. I really shouldn’t…

However, the focus of the current problem is not discrimination or non-discrimination at all.

The problem is big.

“How is it possible, how is this possible…” Li Xuan shook his head again and again, how strict the palace is, how noble is the status of the noble concubine, how could this kind of thing be done, not to mention, whether it is Cui family or Cui family Noble concubine, there is no reason to do so.

There was a trace of anger on Li Xuan’s face, and he said: “The Cui family has committed a terrible crime. He has committed such a serious crime, and he is still stirring up the storm in the court. This matter must be told to the emperor…”

“No way!”

“No!”

Li Yi and Li Mingzhu spoke almost simultaneously.

“You…” Li Xuan stared at them, “Why?”

This matter is related to the reputation of the royal family. It is basically a crime of ransacking the family and exterminating the family. Once investigated, let alone the Cui family, as long as anyone has a relationship with the Cui family, none of them can escape. Those people persecuted the king in the court. When the king of Shu returned to Beijing, he became a rebel who wanted to steal the country. It would be good if he could keep himself. How can he yell “The King’s side” again?

Li Mingzhu was too lazy to pay attention to him, Li Yi glanced at him and asked: “What do you think, with your majesty’s current physical condition, what will happen to hearing such news?”

Li Xuan fell silent immediately after hearing this.

There is no doubt that if the imperial uncle knew about this~IndoMTL.com~the Cui family would definitely not be able to keep it. Kyoto is afraid that a large number of people will die, but what about the imperial uncle himself?

The imperial physician repeatedly told him that the body of the emperor could no longer be stimulated. If he knew that the Cui family and Concubine Cui had done such a thing, the consequences would be unimaginable.

“Uncle Huang must not know about this matter.” Li Xuan nodded and said: “Then you, if you let the Cui family go on this matter, how would you deal with those people?”

Li Yi shook his head and said, “You don’t have to worry about this matter, I have my own way.”

Li Xuan looked at the magistrate Liu, and suddenly said: “This matter is related to the royal reputation. Even if it is to be investigated, it cannot be made public. The less people know, the better.”

Li Yi sighed, looked at the magistrate Liu in the same way, and muttered: “Only the dead can keep a secret…”

Liu County magistrate looked pale and wanted to stand up, but he fell directly into the chair.

Until he walked out of the Li family’s gate, he still felt a little soft in his legs and feet, with a dumbfounding expression on his face. He glanced at the man next to him and said: “Brother Fang, hold me on…”

Lao Fang held his arm, looked up and down, somewhat contemptuously said: “Lao Liu, your bones, you should exercise more…”

“Stop selling off, what can you do?” In the hall, Li Mingzhu frowned and looked at him, and said, “Chu Ping is Chu Ping, and Chu’s family is Chu’s family. Even if you shake out these two cases, It may not be able to shake the Chu family. Don’t underestimate the Chu family’s status in the hearts of Shilin and the people.”

“Whether it can be shaken or not, this is a technical life.” Li Yi walked out the door and said, “However, before this, I would like to see the Jing Guo’s bones.”
