The royal family reads her mind, and the cannon fodder daughter creates the Feihou Mansion

Chapter 231 None of these people can be left alive

"I am such a coward in their eyes."

Rolling his eyes at Ye Xuanqi who was laughing happily, Song Yunxi said unhappily, "How can you still laugh!"

It's fine if Ye Xuanqi is cowardly, but why can she only control the government behind the scenes? Is she so ashamed that she has to be sneaky?

If she wanted, she could bring the people of Shengyun Mountain to kill all the people with the surname Ye and sit on the throne openly.

However, changing dynasties and overthrowing imperial power is not a game. One cannot let the people bear the consequences of a momentary game just because of one's own desires.

Ye Xuanqi stopped joking and said, "I have asked people to check and found out that these rumors were spread by Song Zhening."

Song Yunxi showed an unexpected sneer: "If I'm not mistaken, it's Song Muxue's work again. Song Zhening, that idiot, is being used as a gun again."

Ye Xuanqi acquiesced: "But Song Shaozhang is also involved this time."

This surprised Song Yunxi.

Ye Xuanqi continued, "You let his half-brother, whom he has always looked down upon, overpower him. How can he still keep his composure?"

Song Yunxi then realized that Song Shaozhang had gone to Song Shaoyuan to cause trouble more than once.

"Why didn't Second Uncle tell me?"

Ye Xuanqi: "Second Uncle Song thinks that he has caused you trouble, so he doesn't want you to worry about it anymore."

Song Yunxi calmly analyzed: "Now that you have the support of your second uncle, you are no longer isolated and helpless in the cabinet. No matter whether it is those who are in the cabinet or those of the Sixth Prince, they will not allow you to gain a foothold in the cabinet or even take charge of the cabinet completely."

"So this disturbance may seem to be caused by the Song family, but in fact it is inseparable from the secret instigation of those court officials."

Otherwise it would not have spread to such an extent at such a fast rate.

Especially since the second uncle entered the cabinet, several things he had done were quite pleasing to the emperor, making the old emperor rely on him more. This made them feel a sense of crisis and they wanted to kill with a borrowed knife to eliminate the threat they themselves posed in the court.

Song Yunxi's expression turned cold: "Since they are so impatient, then this is a good opportunity to completely clean up the cabinet. You can also use this opportunity to completely control the cabinet in your own hands."

Ye Xuanqi agreed: "I think so too."

Then he took out a list and said, "This is the list I prepared for the reorganization of the cabinet. Take a look."

Song Yunxi had some impression of the people on the list. They were all upright officials who were willing to do practical work and would never do anything to form cliques or engage in selfish activities.

Because of this, they are isolated in the court. They are either completely ignored and become invisible people in the court, or they are marginalized.

Even though he has always been frustrated, he has never given up his principles to pursue personal gain.

“These are all available people.”

From this list, we can see how comprehensive Ye Xuanqi's grasp of everything in the court is.

Song Yunxi felt that she had chosen the right person, and a smile brightened her face: "Having these practical people in the cabinet will make it easier for you to control the entire government in the future."

Seeing her happy, Ye Xuanqi's mood naturally improved as well: "You don't have to worry about those people in the cabinet, leave them to me."

His determination made Song Yunxi curious: "Do you have a solution?"

She originally wanted to create some mistakes artificially, and then try to cause chaos from within the inner house.

But now it seems that Ye Xuanqi must have some important evidence that can clear them all out of the cabinet.

Ye Xuanqi did not hide anything from her, and took out a booklet and handed it to her: "I noticed the problem when I first returned to the capital. I have been investigating secretly over the years, and the truth once made me feel disappointed. I even thought of giving up."

Song Yunxi appeared when he was struggling and entangled the most. It was her belief in her country and the people that made him feel ashamed of his own cowardice, and also strengthened his determination to thoroughly rectify the administration of the Jin'an Dynasty at all costs.

The words recorded in the booklet were simply shocking to Song Yunxi.

Even though they were mentally prepared, they only thought that these cabinet officials were lazy and partisan, but they never imagined that they would harm the people and even collude with the enemy country.

"So the many women in that manor and Qinlou and Chuguan were most likely sent there by them?"

Song Yunxi felt that her whole body couldn't help but tremble.

Ye Xuanqi was also furious: "I only found out that they took advantage of the floods in the south and the plague in the northwest to buy many women from refugees at low prices, from young girls to beautiful women, and raised them in the south after buying them."

"In the south, they have a courtyard that specifically trains those women. In addition to playing the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, they also have prostitutes from brothels teach them the ways of sex."

"I sent people to investigate secretly, and all I found was that women of a certain age were secretly transferred by them, but I don't know where they were transferred to."

Ye Xuanqi took out a stack of banknotes: "These banknotes all came from the homes of these ministers in the cabinet."

Song Yunxi looked at him puzzled, and Ye Xuanqi explained: "But these banknotes all came from the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion."

Song Yunxi suddenly realized: "So this confirms that they did have a deal with the Loyal and Brave Marquis Mansion."

"Yes."

Ye Xuanqi continued, "And the time of each transaction is basically the same as the time when those women in the south disappeared."

Song Yunxi thought about the women who were rescued. Only a few of them said they were from the south, which could only mean that their companions who were sold at the same time as them had been tortured to death.

Song Yunxi's heart sank.

If such ministers are allowed to continue serving in the court, the destruction of the country and the family will be an inevitable result.

Moreover, they sold out court secrets to the enemy country in exchange for huge profits. I really wish that Jin'an could be destroyed as soon as possible.

Song Yunxi was so angry that her head hurt: "We can't keep any of these people here!"

As expected, how could the useless father and son of the Loyal and Brave Marquis be able to run that filthy hell so prosperously? It turned out that many ministers in the court were their umbrellas.

She used to think that those ministers in the court were just dragged into the water by them and left with evidence, but it turned out that she was too conservative.

These ministers have always been a part of it, and I think they have gained a lot of benefits from Jiang Yuhai and his son.

"I want to visit the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion at night!"

Song Yunxi said coldly: "Since the relationship between the ministers in the court is mutually restrained, there must be a lot of evidence in the Loyal and Brave Marquis's mansion."

If we can get the evidence, it won't just be the cabinet, but all the civil and military officials in the court will be thoroughly cleansed.

"I'll go with you."

However, what neither of them expected was that before they could investigate at night, a fire burned down the mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery.

The Zhongyong Marquis Mansion said that it was because of a fire that fell from the sky at night, just like what happened to the Wenyuan Marquis Mansion in the past.
