Let's talk about Xiao Juan's side, and suddenly received a message from Meng Xizhou, saying that the Eagle Guards found Li Qiao's whereabouts according to the portrait drawn by Yu curling.

Li Qiao was the president of a secret poetry society in the city called Canghaihui.

The members of the meeting are all literati and scholars, and they all have a common characteristic, that is, underappreciated talents.

It is easy for them to feel resentment towards the court and the emperor when they meet like that.

Xiao Juan ordered the arrest of all members of the Canghai Society.

The Eagle Guards are very efficient.

That afternoon, the entire Canghai Club was wiped out, and they were all imprisoned in the Justice Department's prison.

Which naturally also includes Li Qiao.

When Luo Pingsha heard about this, he immediately put down his brush and hurried to the prison to arrange interrogation.

At first those scholars could still grit their teeth and refuse to tell the truth.

After several tortures, some of them finally couldn't hold it anymore.

It turned out that all the anti-poems circulating on the market came from their hands.

Some of them did not pass the test repeatedly, and some were admitted to the jinshi with great difficulty, but because no one recommended them, they have been unable to be assigned to official positions, and they have been sitting on the bench for several years.

The hardships of Han Chuang's hard study and the dark side of officialdom made them resent the court.

They hate the injustice of the world, the injustice of the court, and the injustice of the emperor.

Those anti-poems are the tools they use to vent their resentment.

Originally, the anti-poems they wrote were just circulated to each other in private, until Li Qiao suddenly suggested that he could help print those anti-poems into books and distribute them without anyone finding out.

At first, everyone was still skeptical, but when Li Qiao really published the book with hidden anti-poetry, everyone completely believed his words.

Li Qiao gained a lot of prestige in the Poetry Society and became the president of the Poetry Society.

Luo Pingsha personally interrogated Li Qiao.

To Luo Pingsha's surprise, Li Qiao explained everything in one breath before he could be tortured.

"It was King Min who asked me to print those anti-poems into a book. He has long been dissatisfied with the current emperor. He is obviously a brother, but the current emperor can sit on the ground and enjoy the worship of all the people, but he can only be a person without power and no power. He is unwilling to be the idle prince of power! He wants to spread the anti-poem among the people, thereby smearing the image of the emperor in the hearts of the people."

Luo Pingsha handed this confession to Prince Lang.

After reading the contents of the confession, Xiao Fan asked, "How true do you think these words are?"

Luo Pingsha answered honestly: "He spoke plausibly and seemed to be telling the truth, but his subordinates felt that his words were not credible."

Xiao Wan put down his confession: "Why do you see it?"

"He confessed too quickly, as if he had expected it.

Taking a step back, even if the anti-poetry case is really the leader of King Min, why would King Min keep the hidden danger of Li Qiao?

People like Li Qiao who know a lot, either stay under the nose and watch closely, or kill a hundred people directly, and definitely won't let him run around outside.

Subordinates always feel that there is something tricky in this matter. "

Xiao Yan tapped lightly on the table with his index finger: "You mean that someone is deliberately trying to lure the Eagle Guard to investigate Li Qiao, and use this to frame King Min?"

Luo Pingsha nodded in agreement.

At this moment, Meng Xizhou walked in.

"His Royal Highness Qi, there is someone in the palace, and it is said that the emperor called you into the palace."

Xiao Lian's eyes fell on the confession again.

Cang Haihui had just been arrested when someone came from the palace, which was too fast.
