This Palace will go personally

ery countermeasure he came up with was immediately vetoed the next second.The current situation seems to be a hopeless one.Zhao Xuanji gritted his teeth slightly and said to Li Chen, "Your Highness, w...This Palace will personally make a trip.

"That's right."

Li Chen tapped the thick stack of files on the table with his finger and said, "Money, that's his biggest problem."

"Samba frowned and said, 'Ordinary corrupt officials either embezzle public funds or accept bribes. As for embezzling public funds, Zhīwéi can basically be ruled out because it's too easy to investigate.'"

"As it turned out, the yamen under Guan Zhiwei's jurisdiction did not actually have any cases of embezzlement or misappropriation of public funds. If there were any, they were carried out by others and had nothing to do with him. The Dongchang has records of this."

"Then the rest is accepting bribes, but as long as someone accepts a bribe, there must be someone who offers it. Since there's bribery involved, it definitely involves trading power for money. But over so many years, Guan Zhiwei's official position has kept rising, and he's been transferred to numerous departments without any cases of favoritism or dereliction of duty."

Li Chen said indifferently: "So the person who gave him money has been supporting him all along. His purpose is not for the little power he holds, but investment. He's playing the long game, waiting to catch a big fish. Who knows, maybe one day he'll need him, and that day has finally come."

Upon hearing this, Sān Bǎo immediately understood everything.

He said menacingly, "Your Highness, I shall fetch the person right away"

Guan Zhiwei has no idea about this, so now Sanbao is taking action to capture him. He will definitely succeed in capturing him, not even a god can escape.

But at that moment, Li Chen paused.

"Very well, this palace will go there myself."

Sambao thought Li Chen didn't actually need to go there in person, especially to Guan Zhiwei's house, which only increased the risk.

But Li Chen had already made up his mind, and he wouldn't dare to question Li Chen's decision.

Li Chen got up, arranged by Sanzhao, and within half an hour, he was at Guan Zhiwei's doorstep.

Looking at the ordinary small courtyard in front of him, Li Chen smiled and said to Sanbao beside him: "I've been to Xu Changqing's house, which is even more imposing than this. Who would have thought that Guan Zhiwei was the real ghost"

"The Three Treasures also agreed, saying: 'When I used to catch corrupt officials, many of them lived very modestly. They hoarded the money they stole but didn't dare to spend it. Until they were caught, they could only cry and beg for mercy. The ill-gotten silver not only failed to improve their lives but also made them live in fear day and night. In the end, many of them even lost their lives. It's a mystery why they went to such lengths.'"

Li Chen smiled and didn't reply, giving Siba a look. Siba understood and immediately went to knock on the door.

The rusty doorknob struck the wooden door, producing a dull thud.

The Three Treasures was very particular, but only knocked twice gently and calmly.

Most people knock on the door with three rapid knocks in a row, but this is actually incorrect.

In ancient times, only death announcements would cause three rapid knocks on the door. If people knocked randomly, they would be beaten out by others.

After two knocks on the door, a young servant came to open it soon.

Who are you two

"Sān Bǎo calmly said: 'Please inform your master that an old friend is here to see him.'"

That servant obviously was accustomed to visitors coming to see his master frequently. He immediately said, "My master is not at home, and even if he were, he wouldn't see guests. Please come back another time."

"Your master's rules are quite strict, aren't they" said Sàibǎo with interest.

The little servant frowned and said, “Who are you If you have something to say, leave your names behind. When my master returns, I will inform him.”

As he was speaking, there was a commotion at the door, and Guan Zhiwei's palanquin had arrived.d faces and numerous injuries.The other party was dressed as an ordinary commoner.Weihai Wei is located by the sea, at the junction of the Bohai and Yellow Seas. With abundant fishing resources, local...
