    Two years ago, officials from the eldest prince's line were tasked with maintaining the Huihe River and Minjiang River dams.

    The official in charge thinks.

    There has been no flooding in recent years.

    The dam looked undamaged.

    So in the end, I didn¡¯t put any effort into it. I only spent less than a thousand taels of silver to hire some people and pretended to put a little layer of plaster on the embankment.

    Make it look like it has been repaired at first glance.

    And part of the remaining money was embezzled by all the officials who knew about it and those who participated.

    Some of them were handed over to the eldest prince by those officials, so that the eldest prince could have enough gold and silver to win over court officials and nobles, and to increase the probability of succeeding in seizing the direct heir. Among them, the eldest prince¡¯s mother¡¯s family, the Duke of Jin  People from the government also participated.

    They made a fortune.

    But the next year, heavy rains occurred in the area they were responsible for maintaining. The heavy rains continued for half a month. They soon took over the power of heaven and earth, broke through the dikes, flooded large tracts of farmland, and drowned on the spot.  Hundreds of thousands of people.

    They were impeached at that time.

    But under their eloquent words, they finally characterized the incident as that the heavy rain was a rare occurrence in a century, and there was nothing they could do about the dam being destroyed. It was not that they cut corners, but that the rain was too heavy.

    Later, the eldest prince and his family even used this to express their willingness to perform meritorious service and go to provide disaster relief.

    And in the process of disaster relief.

    They once again withheld disaster relief funds.

    It ultimately led to the death of many people who might otherwise have survived, and triggered several uprisings.

    It¡¯s just that they have enough troops.

    They were forcibly suppressed.

    And no one dares to tell the truth.

    Simply adding these two things together, the number of people who died directly or indirectly due to the officials of the eldest prince's line was nearly 250,000, and the governor Qiao Mu found happened to be a relative core of the whole incident.  characters.

    So it¡¯s normal that he implicated all the officials involved in the incident.

    It is precisely because of knowing this.

    Only Qiao Mu could say that they deserved it, and even felt that it was too easy for them to die so easily. They should be tortured for tens of millions of years, and then their souls would be gone.

    After this time, Qiao Mu was too lazy to trouble those little people for the time being. She directly began to investigate where there were major disasters and where a large number of people died in the past few decades.

    Through the information obtained through the investigation, Qiao Mu discovered many large-scale maritime merchant families who pretended to be Japanese pirates and killed people wantonly. He also discovered that there were many large-scale maritime merchant families who specialized in raising bandits. They usually robbed and made money for them, but also harmed them when something happened.  A large family of human beings, gangs specializing in human robbery and trafficking, and clans that acted recklessly were also discovered.

    After learning this information.

    Qiao Mu immediately started to take action.

    But this time, she did not use the Ghost Face Curse directly because it was too troublesome. Instead, she added many other spells, such as the Bone-Knocking and Marrow-Absorbing Curse, the Thousand Ghosts Heart-Eating Curse, and the Ghost-Faced Immortality Curse.

    The biggest difference between these spells and the Ghost Face Curse is that they will not cause people to die quickly. They will not be allowed to die if they are not allowed to live in torture for a few years. At the same time, these spells do not require people to be cursed.  It spreads only when the person himself dies.

    As long as they are people involved in relevant events.

    Everyone will be cursed at the same time as a certain person in the tree curse incident, and the degree of pain of each person's curse will be measured according to his own karma and the lives of the people involved.

    It would be much better if no one died.

    Although it may be painful, it will never be so painful that you can¡¯t bear to live, nor will you die in a few years.

    And just when Qiao Mu was doing these things.

    A large number of officials in Linjiang Prefecture died.

    As well as the news about the casualties of most of the officials of the eldest prince's family, they were quickly consolidated and submitted to the capital. After analysis by the officials, and with the explanations of ghost-faced sores by some masters of metaphysics, they quickly believed that this incident  The incident was man-made to avenge those people.

    At this time, although there were many people in the court who refused to deal with the officials of the eldest prince's line, they were still shocked that such a big damage occurred at one time. In addition, they themselves  It's not very clean either. Who wouldn't be afraid that similar things would happen to them again and lead to their own ruin?

    So of course they hurriedly joined forces when their lips were dead and their teeth were cold.They all got up and jointly expressed in the court that this incident was extremely bad and hoped that Emperor Lingwei would gather more Xuanmen people to jointly find the murderer behind the scenes and bring the murderer behind the scenes to justice.

    Even if it is to kill the court official with a spell.

    That is also a great sin.

    ??The imperial officials can be defeated in battles with each other, captured, and beheaded, but they must not be assassinated or murdered by strange means. This is the deepest bottom line in the hearts of all imperial officials.

    It can also be regarded as an unspoken rule.

    Whoever dares to destroy is everyone¡¯s enemy.

    Therefore, they will work together in a rare moment and jointly ask the emperor to investigate strictly.

    ????????? Emperor Lingwei called the Qintian Supervisor up on the spot to ask about the general situation, and specifically asked about the ghost-faced sores, and then said angrily:

    ¡°Since ghost-faced sores mean that they all died directly or indirectly at the hands of the person who had the sores.

    Does it mean that the people who died when the dam burst earlier were all because of those officials who died? It also means that it is true that some people previously impeached them for embezzling money to maintain the dam, and even embezzling disaster relief funds.

    Minister of the Ministry of Punishment and Minister of the Ministry of Husbandry, aren¡¯t the results of your investigation irrelevant to them?

    The spells guided by the cause and effect of heaven and earth have conclusively proved that these things must be closely related to them, but the results of your investigation have nothing to do with it!

    You are really my good ministers!

    What do I need you for?  "

    "Your Majesty, everyone is dead, so what's the use of further investigation? Besides, how can we convict officials by using curses? In my opinion, whether the so-called ghost-faced sores are true or false is not yet known.

    The most urgent thing now is to investigate this matter thoroughly.

    "Otherwise, all the officials will be panic-stricken."

    That would be chaos in the world!

    No matter what, this person is trying to replace the punishment of the court with his own efforts. He must be a person with evil intentions, and he is also blaspheming the power of the court!

    If this matter is indulged.

    What dignity will the imperial court have in the future?

    Aren¡¯t officials, nobles and even the royal family just like pigs and dogs, capable of being murdered at will?

    Since he was able to murder the eldest prince.

    ¡°Think of it, even if the dragon energy has some influence on him, it won¡¯t have much of an impact, or he may have a powerful enough method or confidence to resist the influence of the dragon energy on his spells. This matter must be guarded against, Your Majesty!  "

    Although the ministers did not expect that the emperor would cling to the previous impeachment and investigation results, they were not stupid. Of course, they could not follow Emperor Lingwei's wishes and let him lead the way.

    Therefore, the Prime Minister immediately stepped forward.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

    It shows the great threat of the murderer behind it.

    Finally, I specifically mention the eldest prince, mainly to show that if the eldest prince can be killed, then you, the emperor, may also be killed. These ministers may have some lives in their hands, but how could he, the emperor, be innocent when he took over the heir apparent?  There are all kinds of conspiracies and calculations.

    There are all kinds of corruption and bribery to make money.

    Everyone is the same.

    It¡¯s a crow standing on a pig, one color.

    At this time, of course, it has to be consistent, and it has always hidden a threat to their lives.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
