Chapter 267

Li Si now clearly understood that the Ministry of War would simply not lend him any manpower.

But if he wanted to reconstruct the tax silver case, he must borrow the personnel who escorted the tax silver at the time.

But these personnel were all people of the Ministry of War; if Liu Qizhong didn't loosen his mouth, he was simply powerless.

Watching Li Si's back, a cold sneer appeared on the corner of Liu Qizhong's mouth.

They were originally from different power systems.

How could they possibly give Li Si this face and let Li Si's power consolidate?

Not until Li Si had completely left did Wang Ben walk out from behind the screen.

"It seems he is already somewhat impatient."

A smile hung on the corner of Wang Ben's mouth.

Impatient is good.

Only when impatient will there be loopholes in doing things, and only with loopholes will they have the opportunity to bring Li Si down.

"Old General, how is your health recently?"

Liu Qizhong asked toward Wang Ben.

He was also someone who had slaughtered on the battlefield following the Old General back then.

And it was because of the Old General that he was able to reach the position of Prefect of the Ministry of War.

These people, naturally, would not be ungrateful and forget the kindness the Old General had shown them back then.

So this was also the reason why Liu Qizhong agreed immediately when Wang Ben came over this time.

"The body is fine."

"Many thanks to Prefect Liu for your concern."

Wang Ben smiled and said.

Although he didn't understand why his own old man wanted to pretend to be sick and then not attend the morning court.

But one's own family affairs are known to one's own family.

Wang Ben didn't intend to tell anyone about his old man pretending to be sick.

"Please ask the Little General to help me send my regards."

Prefect Liu said with a smile.

……

Following behind Li Si, Ying Mo's mind was constantly thinking about what had just happened.

Just now, following behind Li Si, he naturally heard the conversation between Li Si and Liu Qizhong.

Ying Mo knew.

Liu Qizhong was Wang Jian's man.

Li Si coming to find Liu Qizhong this time was actually wanting to find Wang Jian for help.

He really didn't expect that Wang Jian would actually refuse Li Si directly.

Whether it was Wang Jian or Li Si,

These two people, one was the real culprit from back then, and the other was his suspect.

Although Ying Mo hadn't investigated Wang Jian yet,

He held a high degree of suspicion toward Wang Jian as well.

If these two people had really all participated in the matter from five years ago.

Then why were these two people now at daggers drawn?

This point was something Ying Mo did not know.

However, subsequently, Ying Mo chuckled.

He had circled himself into a misunderstanding.

It's not that completing a matter together makes one friends.

They completed a matter together only because this matter would bring them mutual benefits.

"Zuo Zhongtang."

"Go back and immediately write this matter into a memorial and submit it to His Majesty."

Before entering the carriage, Li Si turned around and said to Ying Mo.

Hearing Li Si's words, Ying Mo immediately realized the purpose of Li Si calling him over this time.

Zuo Zhongtang was a Censor,

He possessed the power to supervise the hundred officials.

Any matter he felt was not right, he could directly submit a memorial to Ying Zheng.

Although not favored by other officials, one cannot deny that the power in his hands was still somewhat large.

"Please rest assured, Lord Li, I will absolutely complete this matter."

Ying Mo pretended to be Zuo Zhongtang's tone and said to Li Si.

After Li Si heard Ying Mo's words, a smile appeared on his face.

"Rest assured."

"After this matter ends, I will definitely submit a memorial to His Majesty."

"You have been in this position long enough; it is time for your son to also show his edge in the officialdom."

Ying Mo immediately imitated Zuo Zhongtang and revealed a grateful look.

Zuo Zhongtang did indeed have a son, aged about seventeen or eighteen.

This son could be said to be Zuo Zhongtang's pride.

And Zuo Zhongtang had always wanted his son to also walk the path of the officialdom.

Clearly, Li Si knew this point clearly, which was why he used this as a reward for Zuo Zhongtang.

It is estimated that Zuo Zhongtang chose to follow Li Si also because of this point.

Li Si was clearly very satisfied with Ying Mo's attitude; after patting his shoulder, he smiled and walked onto the carriage.

Ying Mo squinted his eyes, watching the carriage go further and further away.

Until he couldn't see the shadow of Li Si's carriage, his entire person immediately changed his aura.

Lu Li also came to his side at this time.

"Young Master."

"This Li Si is really not simple."

"No matter who it is, they can become a knife in his hands."

"Five years ago, I don't know how many people he utilized."

Ying Mo's voice was filled with bone-chilling coldness.

Even if those people were utilized by Li Si without knowing it, he didn't want to let those people off either.
