First Section 711
Qi Yun Lihua looked at her husband with rain: "I really don't know that my sister is a member of the White Lotus Sect, I really don't know!"
Liu Mingzhi patted the back of Qi Yun's hand and looked at Qi Ya with a complicated expression: "Silly girl, everyone has selfishness. If my husband really wanted to kill everything, he wouldn't have called you to talk about it!"

Chapter 737 Fair
Qi Yun hurriedly wiped away her tears and looked at First Young Master Liu joyfully: "Husband, you have promised to be a concubine!"
Liu Mingzhi handed a clean handkerchief to Qi Yun: "It's not a question of whether my husband promises to let her go, but a question of whether Sister Ya knows her way back."
Liu Mingzhi drank his tea and looked at Qi Ya with a gloomy face, waiting for her to give him an answer.
If Qi Ya broke away from the White Lotus Sect, she would never mention anything about the Great Elder when suppressing the bandits, and when the time came, she would randomly find a corpse to replace and burn Song Qing on the spot, and they would not be able to see anything.
As for Qinglian, it's not a problem, she must be of one mind with her husband.
The most difficult thing was on Qi Ya herself. If she stubbornly followed Master Bailian to fight against the imperial court, even if Liu Mingzhi wanted to, she might not be able to do so.
Qi Yun got up anxiously and walked in front of Qi Ya, grabbed Qi Ya's wrist and held it tightly in her hand: "Sister, my husband has already prepared a retreat for you, don't continue to be obsessed with it, let's not talk about you and the Lu family The problem is that your uncle and the Lu family wished to force you to marry, and there is no emotion at all. Furthermore, don’t you think about your sister and parents? You have never met the son of the Lu family. , is it worth joining the White Lotus Sect for him?"
Qi Ya let out a deep breath: "Silly sister, sister didn't join the White Lotus Sect because of the Lu family, do you understand? My sister just wants to seek justice for herself, that's all!"
Qi Yun looked at Qi Ya in confusion, wondering what she meant.
Liu Mingzhi looked at Qi Ya with narrowed eyes and seemed to understand what she meant.
As expected, Qi Ya gritted her teeth and looked at the scenery outside the window, revealing a trace of resentment.
"Sangmenxing! Yun'er, do you know how it feels to be pointed at your nose, laughing and scolding? Do you understand the feeling of being thrown at yourself with rotten vegetables, leaves and rotten eggs? You don't understand, why am I a Sangmenxing Well, my sister refuses to accept it, my sister didn't even take a step forward in the Lu family's gate, the Lu family was exterminated because they participated in the matter of the third prince, and it has nothing to do with me, but no one knows how wronged my sister has been!"
Qi Yun looked at Qi Ya's poignant and sad expression, showing a hint of distress.
"Sister, if you have grievances, you can tell your parents and Yun'er to my younger brother. You are holding back your sister and never know that you have suffered so much grievance."
Qi Ya in Qi Yun's impression has always been so dignified and gentle, she never blushed for anything.
From time to time, when I went back to Jiangnan to live for a while, I sat in front of the window in a daze at home and said nothing. Only when I went to find her with my mother would I say a few words with a smile.
Even so, he spoke softly, and he and his mother were afraid of mentioning the sad things about my sister, and never asked about my sister's affairs in the capital.
Qi Ya's misty phoenix eyes finally shed two lines of clear tears, which wet the makeup she just painted.
"What does my sister say about the water thrown by the married daughter? And how can I mention to my parents that the Lu family has been wiped out. It is of no use to talk about these things except to worry my parents!"
Liu Mingzhi looked quietly at Qi Ya, who was pear-blossoming and raining: "You joined the White Lotus Sect to investigate the Lu family's extermination?"
Qi Ya nodded faintly: "I just want to give myself justice, let the truth be revealed to the world, and let those ignorant and vicious people see that the Lu family's destruction was their own fault, not the dead star they said. Damn it!"
Liu Mingzhi sighed: "When you were in the capital in the past, you mentioned this matter, and all the officials kept silent about what happened to the third prince back then, and even the history books recorded by the official historians were sealed up by His Majesty. No one who has personally experienced it knows what happened that year!"
"That's right, I investigated these things at home in the capital, but I got very little information, so by chance one day the leader approached me and said that he could help me investigate what happened back then, so I joined the White Lotus Sect , although I am not good at fighting, but I am proficient in lightness kung fu, and secretly stole a lot of important things for the leader. I also achieved the position of the Great Elder!"
Liu Mingzhi nodded quietly: "The reason why you can't often show up in the church is because you are afraid that your father-in-law and mother-in-law will be suspicious. That's why Lian'er said that you rarely show up in the church, right?"
Qi Ya nodded without hesitation: "That's right, I had already joined the White Lotus Sect. At that time, my father was not the governor of Jinling. Five years ago, my father was suddenly transferred to Jinling, and the leader planned to make troubles in the south of the Yangtze River. I Fearing that my father will recognize me, I rarely show up in the church!"
Liu Mingzhi played with the teacup and took a breath of cool air: "Duke Ming is already the envoy of the White Lotus Sect. The reason why my father-in-law was not caught by the White Lotus Sect is that he became a member of the White Lotus Sect just like the officials recorded in the roster. The puppet thought it was because of you."
"That's right. As the Great Elder of the White Lotus Sect, I know all the actions of the sect clearly. How could I just sit and watch Dad being treated as a puppet by the leader, so I took over all the affairs of Jinling City and secretly protected Dad. It will be fine when he is transferred from Jinling after his three-year term, but the younger sister is very chivalrous, so I have to rack my brains to deal with her!"
Qi Yun bit her lips with self-blame: "Sister, I'm really sorry, I didn't expect things to develop like this, but you shouldn't, you shouldn't, and you shouldn't join the White Lotus Sect to fight against the court, have you ever thought about it?" Once the identity is exposed, what kind of consequences will it bring to our family, the father-in-law's sworn brother......"
Qi Yun subconsciously glanced at her husband and immediately kept silent, for fear that Liu Mingzhi would mind this matter.
Liu Mingzhi pondered for a while and suddenly raised his head to look at Qi Ya: "You are so close to the third...couldn't it be that..."
"That's right, at first I really wanted to use her to get some news about the King of Shu. After getting in touch with her, I realized that San Gonggong is indeed a kind-hearted girl. Now, I really regard her as a bosom friend! Otherwise I won't be in the room..." Qi Ya glanced at Qi Yun: "You caught me chatting cordially in the room!"
"Wouldn't it be possible that the news about the bandit suppression in the south of the Yangtze River also came from you?"
"No, that information was passed on by the envoy. As for the leader of Cuiping Mountain in Yangzhou, he is just a substitute. As for how the envoy got the news, I don't need to say more!"
Liu Mingzhi nodded knowingly: "What do you remember from the list you snatched from me? That day when you went to Yuyanzhai with the third princess to have dinner, it was fake, but it was real to find the list, right?"
"That's right! The leader said that the Holy Envoy uses the White Lotus Sect to achieve his ulterior motives, and intends to get the power of the Holy Envoy into his hands. Now the leader should start contacting those people on the list. It's hard to say whether he will succeed or not." In the past few days, because the third father-in-law lives in my house, I came back a little late, and the third father-in-law complained that I left early and returned late, and I was afraid that she would find out that she would not dare to keep in touch with the people in the church!"
"Can you tell me what the purpose of your White Lotus Sect's rebellion is?"

Chapter 738 Are You Willing (For All Monthly Passes)
Qi Ya pondered for a while and looked at Liu Mingzhi calmly without any hint of dodge in his eyes.
"As far as I know, it's just a disturbance in the south of the Yangtze River, and there is no plan to attack the government of the imperial court. You have also seen that there are almost no major actions other than intercepting some goods, but I didn't expect some believers in Bingzhou Attacked the defenders of the city without permission!"
"Who is the manipulator behind this matter?"
"The Queen of the Kingdom of Jin, she has supported a lot of weapons to equip the brothers in the sect. The request is very simple, as long as there is some disturbance in the south of the Yangtze River!"
Liu Mingzhi walked to the window with his arms folded and calmed down.
There is almost no difference between Qi Ya's words and Murong Shan's words. They are both instigated by the Queen and benefited from the Queen by the White Lotus Sect to do some small things in the south of the Yangtze River.
To put it bluntly, what do you want to do?
"Do you know the purpose of the Empress of the Kingdom of Jin making you make trouble? Has she ever told you about this?"
Qi Ya pondered for a moment and shook her head slightly: "No, let alone me, even the leader is also very confused why the Queen of the Kingdom of Jin proposed such a deal for no reason! This is no different from giving money for nothing!"
"What does Duke Ming want to do with this tax money? If he really wants to make a fortune these years, with his prestige in the south of the Yangtze River, he will collect a large amount of money by doing whatever he wants! Why haven't he moved on money for several years? It's a trick this year!"
Qi Yun slowly walked to Young Master Liu's side: "Husband, didn't you say last night that Jiangnan's tax revenue this year is about 600 million taels? As far as my concubine knows, the after-tax tax in previous years was barely more than 400 million taels, because Your Majesty The increase in tax revenue by 200 million taels due to the opening up of business has aroused Duke Ming's greed!"
"Impossible. As a husband and an official in the Ministry of Household Affairs, I know the way of tax money very well. Although there are 600 million taels of tax money transferred to the national treasury, in order to deal with emergencies, the governor's mansions in various state capitals will leave a part of the tax money for other purposes. , the 600 million taels of silver handed over to the treasury of the Governor's Mansion will not be less than 150 million taels!"
"How come there are so many? If there are 30 million taels of emergency silver in more than 150 prefectures, wouldn't His Majesty be able to easily raise 4000 million taels of silver, and 30 taels for the army to prepare for war is not a problem at all!"
"That's not the way to calculate it. There are many wealthy businessmen in the south of the Yangtze River, and naturally there are more taxes. In remote places like Qingzhou, not to mention 150 million taels of silver for emergency, it would be good to have 20 taels of emergency. What kind of things can prevent local merchants from raising prices and affecting the lives of the people, I really don’t know what kind of person Emperor Gaozu is even thinking of this!”
Qi Yun nodded knowingly: "I understand, my husband means that there are very few incidents in the south of the Yangtze River. If Ming Gong really wants to embezzle money, as long as he moves the money in the treasury, no one will know anything!"
"That's right, besides King Huainan, Duke Ming is also the governor of the south of the Yangtze River. It's not a problem at all if he wants to use some money from the treasury. There's no need to take risks at all!"
Qi Yun looked at Qi Ya quietly: "Sister, do you know what Duke Ming wants to use the money for?"
Qi Ya shook his head again: "I don't know, although the envoys are the envoys of the White Lotus Sect in name, they have always been wary of each other with the leader. They are just using each other. The leader guessed that the envoys prepared the silver for other uses by the red dragon. !"
