Empress with no virtue |LK ADAPTATION|

CHAPTER 83

This time around, Ye Lisa's purpose of visiting Jiangsu has let her hunt down a demon beast, following the information provided by Chang Yu, she managed to catch a few other court officials to beat up, and each of them were accurately beaten up and they all fessed up in the end.

All those in the politics are those that values their lives the most, although they will say they are not afraid to die, but in actuality it is just that there are no strong enough threat to make them feel scared.

Ye Lisa is the empress, showing off the aura of the demon lord, without saying much, her whip will be the first to move, as long as they believe that she is the empress, even if that person whipped them to death, she will still not be placed into any trouble. A few of them lasted longer in hopes of help to arrive, just that the empress is too clever, having made sure nobody outside knew what was happening. The empress also said, if they happen to die, she will just chop them up into pieces and thrown into the river to feed the fishes. That time there will not be any proof, at most the court will only loose a worker, but they won't even have a chance to reincarnate.

This type of uncontrollable and without reasoning personality of the empress successfully cornered them.

Ji Jungkook went through the confessions of these official in detail, and knew that the confessions have high similarities; most of their crimes resolves around corruption and making the citizens suffer, however all the money in the end was submitted to Jiangsu Bu Zheng Shi.

Bu Zhen Shi, is also known regional general of Jiang su, indeed if the top is not right, the bottom will follow.

This case involved many officials, and huge amounts of money, Ji Jungkook immediately ordered the finance and investigation officials from the capital to handle this matter. In hand, they already have the evidence, so the case would be easier to solve, however the problem now would be to find out where this large fund of money is.

However, the moment the officials from capital arrived, they received news that the Bu Zheng Shi, also known as Chai Zhi Tui committed suicide out of guilt.

Ji Jungkook ordered for Chai manor to be thoroughly searched, however there were no signs of large sums of money. Furthermore, according to the workers there the regional general is normally very frugal with his lifestyle.

Chai Zhi Tui, Chai Zhi Tui. Ji Jungkook was trying to recall the information he read before about the officials at Jiangsu, suddenly he recalled, that this Chai Zhi Tui, when he was younger, he once worked in the crown prince's office.

This office was meant to only serve under the crown prince, but that time the crown prince wasn't Ji Jungkook, but was his uncle, whom was removed of the title by the previous emperor! Who is also none other than Ji Li You's father.

When Chai Zhi Tui was younger, he wasn't very known, his position at the crown prince's office was not very high either, not to mention there were so many people working in that office, so when Ji Jungkook saw it earlier, he didn't pay too much attention.

But now, something fishy is truly happening.

Furthermore, after Bai Jian Cheng was banished to Liaodong, he departed to Jiangsu after. Ji Jungkook previously also felt something was wrong, this Bai Jian Cheng was a Fujian person why did he run all the way to Jiangsu, and climbed up the ladder there slowly, surely he was helped by someone, it was only after that, that he was supported by Ye Xiu Ming.

And as to why Chai Zhi Tui will support an official with crime, the answer is very clear.

Ji Li You has visited the Nu Zhen camp these few years, and surely he met Bai Jian Cheng at Liaodong, and has successfully enticed him to join his rebellious plot. Later when Bai Jian Cheng returned to the mainlands, Chai Zhi Tui, as one of the main person in the plot, started to grow Bai Jian Cheng, and sent him into the capital. Bai Jian Cheng managed to enter the capital thanks to his relationship as a student of Ye Xiu Ming.
