"Feiji! Do you have any brothers who are good at gathering information? "
After returning home from the palace, Li Zexuan called Pang Feiji into the house and asked.
Pang Feiji was confused and replied, "Yes, I do! I have two men who are especially good at gathering information. Do you have any orders for me, Lord Jue? "
Li Zexuan nodded in satisfaction and said, "Very good! Send them to investigate all the dirty things the Cui family has done in recent years. The more, the better! It's best if you can find evidence! "
Li Er had some misgivings about the aristocratic families and was unwilling to make a move against the Cui Family. However, Li Zexuan wasn't willing to let them off just like that. Even if he couldn't get rid of this towering tree, he could at least make its roots fester a bit. Li Zexuan had never shown any mercy to those who had harmed him before, just like the Seven Cultivators of True Virtue Sect.
Pang Feiji was stunned and asked subconsciously, "Which Cui family is it, Lord Jue?"
"The Cui family from Qinghe!"
Boom ~!
Pang Feiji felt his brain explode. The Cui family was a top aristocratic family that had lasted for thousands of years. In people's hearts, their status was even higher than that of the Li family. Now, Li Zexuan wanted him to investigate the Cui family. How could he not be shocked?
After being stunned for a moment, Pang Feiji muttered, "Lord Jue, did I hear wrongly? You want to investigate the Cui family from Qinghe? "
Li Zexuan nodded and said, "That's right. Is there a problem? "
Seeing Pang Feiji's unusually shocked expression, Li Zexuan went forward and patted his shoulder. He continued, "Feiji, you have to understand who has the final say in the world now. It's the emperor! The aristocratic families are just arrows at the end of their flight. Don't be afraid of them anymore! "
Pang Feiji swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva and said, "I understand! Don't worry, Lord Jue, I will find a way to get this done! "
"Okay! Go! "
Li Zexuan didn't believe that any of these rich and powerful families had a clean bottom ~! As long as Pang Feiji investigated seriously, he would definitely be able to find some dirty deeds done by the Cui family's disciples.

East Duke's Mansion.
"Uncle! Uncle! Oh no! Yunhan has been sent to Qiongzhou! "
In the afternoon, Cui Yunhan's father, Cui Simo, hurried to the backyard of the East County Duke's Mansion. When he saw Cui Junchuo, who was enjoying the cool air under the corridor, he shouted anxiously.
The Tang Dynasty established Chang 'an as the capital. The development of the north was relatively good, while the development of the south was relatively poor. At this time, the main places of exile for prisoners were Hainan and Guangxi in the south. These places were rich in resources, inconvenient in transportation, and unsuitable for human habitation. The prisoners' lives were used to do dangerous work to speed up the local development.
Cui Junchuo was shocked. He stood up shakily and said in disbelief, "How is that possible? The Supreme Judiciary just arrested Yun Han the day before yesterday. Even if they have evidence, they have to hand it over to the Ministry of Justice to convict him. How can it be so fast? "
Cui Simo said with a sad face, "It's true, Uncle! I asked a few friends from the Supreme Judiciary to take care of Yun Han. According to them, the Supreme Judiciary held a joint trial yesterday for Yun Han and Jiang Cuihua, who instigated the women to cause trouble in Li Zexuan's house. Jiang Cuihua, that b * tch, slandered my son Yun Han and the mastermind behind the scenes who bribed her previously. Their voices and figures are exactly the same!
Therefore, the Supreme Judiciary officially arrested Yun Han yesterday and prepared to hand him over to the Ministry of Justice to convict him. However, just now, I received news from the Supreme Judiciary that the Emperor has decreed that Yun Han will be sent to Qiongzhou and will not be able to enter the imperial court as an official for the rest of his life! Uncle! You have to save Yun Han! He has been wronged. The previous incident had nothing to do with him! "
When Cui Junchuo heard this, he was both shocked and stunned at the same time. He never thought that the crime of Cui Xuanji bribing Jiang Cuihua to wreak havoc in the Li residence would ultimately fall onto Cui Yunhan. He closed his eyes and seriously thought about it. If he didn't think about it, he wouldn't know. But when he thought about it, he was shocked. He compared Cui Xuanji and Cui Yunhan's voices and figures in his memory and realized that they were eighty percent similar. No wonder Jiang Cuihua would identify Cui Yunhan as the mastermind.
Now that things had come to this, it was already out of Cui Junchuo's control! Now that there were witnesses and evidence, it was as difficult as ascending to the heavens to reverse the case for Cui Yunhan unless he told the imperial court that the mastermind behind the chaos in the Li Residence was Cui Xuanji. However, was it worth it?
That way, although it would reduce Cui Yunhan's crime, it would also cause another descendant of the Cui Family to be implicated. Furthermore, it would be the most outstanding youngster of the third generation. Cui Junchuo would never allow such a situation to happen.
Cui Si Mo did not know about the previous incident. Otherwise, it would be hard to say if he would betray Cui Xuanji in order to save his son.
For the Cui Family, he could only …
A trace of determination flashed across Cui Junchuo's eyes. He looked at Cui Si Mo and said in a deep voice, "I had already arranged a meeting with two assistant ministers of the Ministry of Justice tomorrow to ask them to make an exception. However, I did not expect the Emperor to place such importance on this case and convict Yunhan in such a short time. Now that the Emperor has issued the imperial edict and the evidence is irrefutable, no matter how hard I try, it will be in vain. So, Si Mo, you had better make plans early and arrange for some people to go to Qiongzhou to take care of Yunhan ~!"
Cui Si Mo was stunned on the spot as if he was struck by lightning. After a while, he said in a trembling voice, "No! Uncle ~! Yunhan is also your nephew ~! She couldn't ruin his future because of such a small matter! Please help him ~! Don't you know Minister Li ~? Ask him to plead for leniency for Yunhan ~! "
"Patriarch, the imperial edict is here. The eunuch who delivers the imperial edict is waiting outside ~!"
At this moment, a servant ran in in a panic and reported with a bow.
Cui Junchuo's expression changed abruptly. Then, he said to Cui Si Mo, "Take care of yourself. The Cui family is no longer the same as before. If you don't wake up now, sooner or later, you will follow in Yunhan's footsteps ~!"
After saying that, he snorted and left in a huff ~!
When Cui Si Mo heard that, he knew that this matter had really reached the point of no return. When he thought that his only son was going to be exiled to a barren land thousands of miles away, even though he was a man in his forties, he could not help but feel sad and his eyes turned red.
"Yunhan, my son, I have let you down ~! Uncle, you are so cruel ~! "
The person Cui Si Mo was complaining about in his heart had already arrived at the front yard. When he saw the eunuch who came to deliver the imperial edict, his pupils suddenly shrank. His already stooped back bent even lower. If one looked carefully, one could see that his body was still trembling slightly.
