Dajin royal family
Chapter 487
Chapter 487
The magistrate of Taiyuan soon received news from above, asking them to cooperate with the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple to investigate a case of theft of weapons from the Ministry of Industry.
Zhou Yi frowned when he heard the news.
He is not a fool, is the ordnance of the Ministry of Industry so easy to steal?
Not to mention how strict the Ministry of Industry's defenses are, but the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple will thoroughly investigate the situation, and he understands that this matter is not easy.
It's not easy at all!
Perhaps, the stolen ordnance this time is likely to be a weapon forged after the imperial court improved its craftsmanship, otherwise the imperial court would not be so nervous.
"Lord Zhou, according to the detailed rules given to us by the Ministry of Criminal Justice, it can be roughly concluded that the stolen ordnance trading venues are gathered in the four commercial markets in the east, west, south, and north. The officer thinks that we must immediately mobilize people to conduct a thorough investigation in the four commercial markets, and maybe we can find them." Find clues." Wei Xuancheng clapped his hands and said with a calm expression.
Zhou Yi rubbed his brows, and said lightly: "This matter was exposed from these four commercial markets. At this time, the other party must be alert. We will investigate with great fanfare. Will the thief show up again?"
The officials in the hall looked at each other, speechless for a while.
Wei Xuancheng shook his head, and explained: "The more this is the case, the more we need to investigate with great fanfare. The Ministry of Criminal Affairs and Dali Temple told us about this matter, and they want us to make a big noise and let them investigate secretly."
Zhou Yi pondered for a while, and felt that although Wei Xuancheng's remonstrance was not useful for solving the case, it was more useful for him to escape responsibility.
The sky fell and there was a tall man supporting it. The Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple were the real chief investigators in this matter. He, the magistrate of Taiyuan County, was probably a helper.
"Just do as you say."
Zhou Yi waved his hand, turned and left.In this Taiyuan where throwing a brick can hit court officials, he is nothing like a little Taiyuan magistrate.
"Yes!"
Wei Xuancheng solemnly clasped his fists, and immediately called his subordinates to discuss a thorough investigation plan.
At the same time, Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice also started to move, but their movements were relatively small.The Ministry of Punishment mainly investigates the interior of the Ministry of Industry, while the Dali Temple investigates ordnance buyers.Because the case was requested by King Zhao, no one dared to be sloppy, and they all went all out to investigate.
The Ministry of Industry will be used as a supervisory warehouse.
Li Chun took the roster of entering and exiting the warehouse and checked them one by one. Behind him stood several criminal officers.
About an hour later, Li Chun put down the roster, but he didn't find what he was looking for.The entry and exit of every official above has been investigated in detail, and there is no problem.
But this is the biggest problem. Who has the ability to tamper with the roster?
In other words, it is impossible for Ordnance to escape by itself.
This person hiding in the dark is not some small role in the Ministry of Industry.
"Ah!" Inexplicably, Li Chun smiled bitterly and sighed, thinking of the gift the king gave him, he couldn't help shaking his head.
"My lord, do you have an idea?" asked the guard behind him.
Li Chun's face turned serious, and he shouted: "The order will be passed on. Within two months, all officials from the Ministry of Industry who enter and leave the warehouse will be sent to prison for strict investigation!"
The guards were shocked and looked at each other.
Without waiting for them to speak, Zheng Renguo, the left servant of the Ministry of Industry, came over.
"Master Li, you are such a powerful official!" He stopped in front of Li Chun, and said, "The lower officials have also entered and exited the warehouse. Is it possible that Master Li still wants to detain me?"
Li Chun stared at him without saying a word. The two sides refused to give in to each other. After staring at each other for a long time, Li Chun squeezed out a word from between his teeth.
"buckle!"
Zheng Renguo's complexion changed, and he said coldly, "Lord Li, what power do you have!"
"Would Zheng Shilang ask the king about the power given by the king?!" Li Chun left without looking back.
Zheng Renguo's teeth itched in anger, but he really didn't dare to ask King Zhao.According to his father, King Zhao became very angry because of this case.
"My lord, please." The officer of the Criminal Department secretly smacked Li Chun's decisiveness, and stretched out his hand to ask Zheng Renguo to go with them to the Criminal Department.
"Don't touch me!"
Zheng Renguo flicked his sleeves and walked in front.
Facts have proved that when the bureaucrats are under pressure, the speed of investigation is very fast, especially two days later, because Li Chun and the Criminal Ministry have not found out the relationship between the inner ghost, King Zhao ordered several officials to be dismissed.
Under this pressure, the Ministry of Punishment and the Ministry of Industry went crazy and thoroughly investigated the family background of the relevant bureaucrats of the Ministry of Industry.
After this investigation, it was found that there was a problem with a guy, and he also had a good chance of committing a crime.
The Ministry of Industry will be the supervisor Shaocheng, Wu Duanhe.
Snapped!
A whip hit Wu Duanhe's face, and a bloodstain slowly emerged.
"Master Wu!" Wei Shijian, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, sighed, "I said let's not waste time, you should recruit as soon as possible."
Holding tea, Wei Shijian stood calmly in the execution room, watching the jailer torture Wu Duanhe.
There were several wooden barrels strewn about on the ground. Wu Duanhe passed out several times while being tortured, but was woken up by splashing water, and the ground was full of water stains.
"Your officer. Not guilty."
Wu Duanhe, in his 40s, with one eye open and the other eye so red and swollen from being whipped that he could not see anyone, barely raised his head to look at Wei Shijian, uttering a few words with difficulty.
Wei Shijian shook his head, and said lightly: "Whether you are guilty or not, we have already obtained the evidence. The unidentified property in your house alone is enough to send you away. You insist now because you want to wait The mastermind behind it will protect you."
After a pause, Wei Shijian took two steps forward, and said slowly: "But you have to know, the king has already known about this matter, who dares to protect you?"
Wu Duanhe lowered his head slowly and stopped talking.
Seeing this, Wei Shijian shook his head with a little impatience on his face.
If the king hadn't ordered a thorough investigation, he would never have wasted time in the torture chamber.
"It seems that you don't intend to say anything, anyway, the people behind you will definitely keep you secret, don't say it, as long as you survive, you will be rewarded with luck in the future." Wei Shijian said indifferently: "But You have to know that the dead are not entitled to enjoy it. And your death does not mean that the matter is over, your family will also be implicated, and what you pay will not be rewarded."
Wu Duanhe remained silent.
Wei Shijian was not in a hurry, and continued: "Perhaps that person told you that he would find a way to save your family and your life. But you must know that the king can't rub sand in his eyes. Look at this man. Chao Wenwu, who can let the king give up?"
"Of course, that person may abandon you and save himself. All in all, if you don't let go, not only will you die, but your family will not be safe. The person who promised you will not reach out to save you, I will even get rid of you as soon as possible in order to protect myself."
"You still have a way out, confess. As long as you confess, the responsibility lies with you, and your family will not be implicated. You may think that after confessing, the mastermind will not let your family go, but you have to know that Taiyuan and even In the Northern Jin Dynasty, the real master is the king!"
Wei Shijian's eyes were calm, and he paused every word: "If you confess, you are the king behind you. If you don't confess, you will be alone."
Holding the whip, the jailer looked at Wu Duanhe who was not moving, shook his head, and said to Wei Shijian: "My lord, I have seen this kind of villain a lot, so I won't confess."
"Master Wu, have you thought it through?" Wei Shijian drank his tea slowly.
The torture room was quiet, and Wu Duanhe's breathing could be heard.
After a while, Wu Duanhe raised his head slowly, and said with a wry smile: "Master Wei, I am really innocent."
As the voice fell, the teacup fell to the ground, splattering debris.
"Master Wu is really mighty and unyielding." Wei Shijian sneered, turned and left the torture room.
Tiange.
"Your Majesty, Wu Duanhe still refuses to plead guilty." Wei Shijian said shamelessly, "Your Majesty has disappointed you."
Pei Ju, Zheng Shanyuan, Wang Hong, and Yu Chijiong were all present.Li Chun is still in the investigation of the Ministry of Industry, and he has been very busy these days.
"Master Wei, sit down first." Jiang Chengxiao picked up the paper, and after Wei Shijian sat down on his knees, he opened his mouth and said: "A mere Ministry of Industry will serve as Supervisor Shaocheng. The property that was searched from the home of a small official of the sixth rank There are more than 20 taels of gold. When did our Jin family get so rich? Or, when did our Jin family get so rich?"
Facing King Zhao's words, all the ministers remained silent.
Jiang Chengxiao casually threw Tiao Chen on the table, and glanced at several ministers.
"There are still people in Hebei who have nothing to eat and no clothes to cover their bodies, but our side is full of singing and dancing."
Wei Shijian pleaded guilty: "I did not notice it."
Jiang Chengxiao waved his hand, "Wu Duanhe didn't recruit, which means that he thought that the person behind him would definitely be able to keep him. Gu is really more and more curious now, who has such courage and who has such great confidence! "
"Looks like Gu, looks like a little king."
Whoa!
Several ministers immediately stood up and said: "I dare not!"
At this moment, a personal guard came in, cupped his hands and said, "My lord, the Dali Temple has captured the merchants who bought arms privately, and they are now being held in the prison of Dali Temple awaiting interrogation."
