The Qin State Lord indeed has no issues, but the officials within Lingnan Province are not at ease. Once such a matter is reported, it is very likely to offend the Imperial Censors responsible for impeachments in the Imperial Capital. In the future, they might deliberately target Lingnan. So, they might as well frame the Qin State Lord instead!"
Long Binglin frowned.
Long Yanrui was dumbfounded.
"Slander on purpose? If there are problems in Qin State, then wouldn't the Lingnan Province overseeing it also have issues?"
"No, it's different." Liang Qu stepped on the wooden bar under the table and sucked an orange into his mouth, "The problem in Qin State is the Prefect's deceptive reporting. The Lingnan Province is also a 'victim' who was misled, making it a small matter. If the Qin State Lord has issues, everyone benefits; the Censor saves face, and the province lands safely."
