Chapter 144: A Slippery Ground [II]

When Yin Zhan was studying in Momen, Mo Qingshan did not keep him by his side because of his sensitive identity. Therefore, he adopted Yin Zhan, except for a few cronies in Momen, others did not know. 

The King of Nanyang did not know where the news came from. In fact, the King of Nanyang himself was puzzled when this news came from an anonymous letter he suddenly received a few days ago. He didn't know the authenticity, but it was a good way to bring down Momen.

"King Nanyang, is what you said true?" Emperor Ming tried his best to suppress his displeasure with a dark face.

"Answering his majesty, the emperor, the minister only learned of this news recently, and has not yet verified it. Since the matter is of great importance, the minister does not dare to conceal it. As for the authenticity of the news, the minister thinks that it can be verified by sending someone to the Mojia family in Shandong to check." The King of Nanyang said.

"Your Majesty, this minister thinks that King Nanyang's words are justified. If Mo Qingshan adopted Yin Zhan even though he knew that he was a remnant of the previous dynasty, then his heart would be punishable." Fan Zhongyang agreed.

Emperor Ming was getting older, but his desire for power and position had not decreased but increased. Especially recently, he was often in a trance and always feels that his throne is in jeopardy. How could he tolerate someone who had two hearts on him?

So he immediately ordered Lu Ziqing to guard Mo Qingshan secretly and strictly, not to scare the snakes.

Yu Linwei was a close confidant of the emperors of the Dasheng Dynasty, and he directly obeyed the emperor, and only obeyed the emperor. Their reconnaissance agencies were all over the world, and their work efficiency was extremely high.

A few days later, an ancient jade found in the Mo family's possessions was presented to Emperor Ming.

This was a piece of warm and square white jade, beautifully carved, exquisitely carved, and glowing with a lustrous luster.

Emperor Ming held the jade tightly, but his eyes were full of anger.

On this piece of jade, the character "Yin" is clearly engraved.

This was the token of the Yin family of the previous dynasty, and it was the jade pendant carried by the emperors of the Yin family in all dynasties.

Mo Qingshan was really daring to hide the royal family token of the previous dynasty. Could it be that he wanted to rebel?

The Mo Clan had a very high status in the arena. The Mo Clan has a large number of strong and talented people. If the Mo Clan rebelled, a large force had to be gathered to guarded against them.

Thinking of this, Emperor Ming ordered the commander Yulin Wei, who was kneeling in front of him, to return orders: "Send someone to strictly guard the Mo family and others, and take Mo Qingshan for the crime of adopting the remnants of the previous dynasty and hiding the royal family tokens of the previous dynasty. Arrest him quickly."

In the study room of Prince Luo's mansion, Master Xing was reporting to Meng Tianluo. "My lord, I just received the news that the emperor has ordered Yu Linwei to take Mo Qingshan into custody, and the Mo family in Shandong is also under surveillance. It seems that the emperor is going to attack the Mo family."

Meng Tianluo grinned, and under the candlelight, this smile looked particularly sinister. "Very good. The Mo family has always been on good terms with the Xuan family. Getting rid of the Mo family will weaken some of Meng Yuan's power. By the way, did that person say when to attack Meng Yuan?"

Master Xing replied, "The man said that the time will come soon, please let the lord calm down."

A cold light flashed in Meng Tianluo's dark eyes. *Meng Yuan, you are unlucky, who let you fall into the eyes of that immortal. You wait and see, this king will let you have nothing, your army, your status, including your woman, this king will grab everything from you.*

Zhao Ling never thought that a portrait she painted would bring disaster to Momen.

When she received the news and hurried to Prince Xuan's mansion, she happened to meet Lu Ziqing who was about to evacuate the yamen of the Ministry of Justice.

"Lord Lu, what about Elder Mo?" As soon as Zhao Ling said that, she felt that her question was very unprofessional.

Now that Lu Ziqing was ready to evacuate, it meant that Yu Linwei had taken Mo Qingshan away.

Because she was worried about Mo Qingshan, Zhao Ling came all the way from the Duke's Mansion without stopping. At this moment, her cheeks were flushed, her forehead was slightly sweaty, and the hair on her temples was also a little scattered by the wind.

Lu Ziqing suddenly felt a little distressed when she looked at Zhao Ling, who had rarely lost her temper. He took a few steps forward and stood still in front of Zhao Ling, his usual rigid tone brought a bit of gentleness. "Elder Mo was just taken away by Yu Linwei. Qian Mo, don't worry, Elder Mo should not be in danger for the time being."

Having said that, Lu Ziqing had no idea in his heart what would happen. Just now, he clearly heard Yu Linwei's reason for arresting Mo Qingshan, who was standing next to him. Adopting the remnants of the previous dynasty and hiding the royal family's relics from the previous dynasty were both serious crimes of beheading?

How could Zhao Ling not know this truth. The five children who were killed were all from prominent families in the Dasheng Dynasty, and Emperor Ming was bound to give them a satisfactory explanation.

And the opinions of the families of these victims were surprisingly consistent. No matter whether the real culprit in this case was Mo Hanshan or Mo Qingshan, in short, it was the people of the Mo family. Mo Qingshan who was under his nose would settle the account.

What was more, in Emperor Ming's view, this case was no longer the focus. What matters was whether the Mohists still had loyalty to the previous royal family, but dissent towards the Meng family.

This was something that all those in power couldn't tolerate in a feudal society.

The Mo family would be very troublesome this time.

"Where will the people who were taken away by Yu Linwei be imprisoned?" Zhao Ling asked since she didn't know the system here. She only knew that Yu Linwei was the emperor's confidant and only obeyed the emperor.

"Yulin Guard has a special place for detaining prisoners, and the guards there are heavily guarded. The prisoners in that place are all serious criminals in the court, and ordinary people cannot enter." Lu Ziqing's face was cold.

That being said, even going in to visit was a problem. The Mo family tree had deep roots and many disciples.. It seemed that Emperor Ming was very jealous of the Mo family, so he dispatched Yu Linwei directly.
