Chapter 98 Close the Net (2)

In the punishment hall, Gao Jun stood behind Shen Huai, carefully watching every move of everyone in the hall.

Being ridiculed by Xu Yuan in the early morning, he is still sad.

——Did they win by force value?If I, like Xu Yuan, put all my thoughts into figuring out people's hearts, now my strategy will definitely surpass Xu Yuan, how can I be squeezed by him?To actually poke at the master before promoting others, where is the conscience?

Gao Jun was holding back his energy, and today he wanted to take a closer look: how did that hypocritical Caodu who he thought was going to be taken advantage of, and who was holding his feet for a while, held all of Cao Kaihe's pits in his hands!
Today's trial, Liu Ming used explosives and weapons as a breakthrough point as soon as he came up.

All accounts and other related matters of the Military Weapons Bureau are under investigation, but everyone who is sensible knows that there are one set of accounts and one set of accounts.
The military craftsman said that he only used one set of ledgers, and the director of the Military Weapons Bureau explained that it involved confidentiality, and if he did not have a warrant from the governor to specify the interrogation, the authority of the criminal yamen alone was not enough for him to provide more.

Originally, the Weapons Bureau was not under the Water Transport, but because the Governor's broad scope of power covered local political affairs, so even though it was also under the management of the Governor, he really couldn't handle the punishment.

Liu Yun sat in the hall with an ugly expression on his face.

Cao Du's order had to be reviewed today, but Cao Du did not completely delegate power, so that he had no way to deal with such a big obstacle.

Next, how to judge?

On the side of the hall, there are several great gods sitting, all of them are bigger than his officials, even Qian Yushi, who is lower than him, is particularly attractive because of his power as an official.

Liu Yun frowned, staring at the fearless director of the Ordnance Bureau, scolding his mother desperately in his mind.

Over there, Cao Kaihe suddenly said, "Master Liu, since you are not in power, you should be more prudent and wait, but now you are rushing to be promoted today just because of a letter from the governor, is it just a joke?" of?"

The officials working in the various yamen who were watching the trial couldn't help whispering after hearing the words.

Liu Yun knew what was being said without listening carefully.Among this group of people, there are quite a few from the prefectural and county yamen, and their duties and powers usually overlap with their own. Relying on the dispatch of the Ministry of Punishment to do things well, it is true that they have bullied people less.

However, it is impossible for him to just wait for death.

No need to wait either.

Liu Yun didn't seem to hear Cao Kaihe's ridicule, and he slapped the gavel: "Bring Lai Guojin!"

Cao Kaihe was startled, then his eyelids twitched, he looked towards the door with a sneer, and said nothing.

The yamen servant was also suffocated by the ridicule, and he responded quickly, one by one, with an astonishing momentum, the whole room fell silent, and all looked towards the door.

A tall, dark and thin middle-aged man was brought in, without squinting, he identified himself as a scholar in the hall, and was able to stand in the hall without kneeling and listen to questions.

The yamen servant put the pig iron hidden weapons and the gunpowder fragments found in Zhou's house in a tray, and sent them to Lai Guojin for him to identify.

Lai Guojin looked carefully and replied very positively that this batch of pig iron had never been seen before, and had never appeared in the Miscellaneous Manufacturing Bureau.

Evidence?Naturally, it is a material book.

The manager, Old Zhao, presented two thick books, which he said were the records of pig iron materials entering and exiting the Miscellaneous Manufacturing Bureau in the past year.

There are thousands of documents, so if you read them carefully, from beginning to end, you will naturally find nothing wrong.

Nonsense—the things recorded in pen and ink are dead things after all, these hidden weapons are after all a pile of irregular fragments and leftovers, and each complete chapter is stamped on it, how to verify which batch is which batch?

Sitting in the hall, Liu Yunyun suddenly lost his mind—the records included how much pig iron was imported on a certain day, how much waste was produced on a certain day, and how much waste was dissolved on a certain day in a certain year. Where, the accounts are clear.

But what is the use in this case?

Cao Kaihe said impatiently again: "Since I remember everything clearly, it can be seen that this batch of pig iron did not come from the Miscellaneous Manufacturing Bureau. The Miscellaneous Manufacturing Bureau took over the work from the Military Weapons Bureau, and all the materials were supervised by the Military Weapons Bureau. It is natural for the Ordnance Bureau to explain the matter. Now such a hard trial, could it be that someone is shirking responsibility?"

He was sneering and sarcastic, but the reasoning was clear, and the face of the director of the Military Weapons Bureau changed on the spot.

Cao Bing is a major supplier to the local military bureau, and the two sides deal with a lot. Even though the two sides are not very close because of the relationship between Cao Du, they are also closely related.

Unexpectedly, the commander-in-chief, who has always been known for his boldness and righteousness, suddenly fell into trouble.

This guy who drags people into the water is vicious, straightforward, and turns his face as soon as he says it... No, when did the manager of the Xiaoxiao Arms Bureau really have face in front of Cao Zongbing?

Whether the officialdom is hot or cold is always at stake. Cao Kaihe has a clear goal and is merciless in his strikes. Seeing that the disaster will be led to the Military Weapons Bureau again.

At this moment, Old Zhao, who was kneeling on the ground next to Lai Guojin's feet, moved.

"My lord, can I have another look at this pig iron hidden weapon?"

Before Liu Yun could speak, Lai Guojin raised his eyebrows, lowered his voice and shouted, "Old Zhao, what are you doing? You have nothing to do here!"

Old Zhao bowed his head and said: "Master, this small hidden weapon seems familiar. The Shangguan interrogated him, and dare not return."

The yamen servant then brought the hidden weapon to Old Zhao Tou, who really saw it carefully.

Old Zhao even touched those pieces one by one, then put the things back, and said to Liu Yun: "My lord, I have some things here, and I need to present them."

He took out a small cloth bag from his pocket and handed it to the yamen servant.

The yamen servant presented it to Liu Yun, Liu Yun took it, opened it, his eyes flashed slightly, and his face immediately relaxed.

Signal the yamen servant to pour the contents of the bag into a new tray.

There was a crisp sound, and although everyone was still standing far away, they all knew it well—the pile of gray and black trivial things in the tray were the same as the pig iron hidden weapons used by the killer?
There was a roar.

Under Liu Yun's signal, the yamen servant first brought the tray to Cao Kaihe, Shen Huai, Qian Yushi and others, and then waved it around in front of the jurors in turn.

"Old Zhaotou, please tell me the details." Liu Yun's voice was very steady.

Half of Old Zhao's face was almost pierced by Lai Guojin's gaze, but he didn't look sideways, and said, "My lord, this is a new batch of waste from the Miscellaneous Manufacturing Bureau on the 28th of the first month. It is collected and re-melted as usual, but A bag was lost on the second day of February."

"Why is it not in the records?"

"The owner said that the matter of military weapons is life and death. He told me to wait quietly and dissolve it quietly, so that we can be safe."

"Old Mr. Zhao! You're so good at talking nonsense!"

With a yell, Lai Guojin kicked Old Zhao's head to the ground with one kick, and then kicked Old Zhao's head in the heart with another kick.

Seeing that he suddenly jumped up, that kick was about to land in the heart of Old Zhao, a government servant who had been prepared by the side rushed forward, hugged Lai Guojin and pressed him to the ground, and then several people rushed up and kicked Lai Guojin The outer robe was removed, and all the flowers were tied up in the hall.

Liu Yun slapped the gavel again, and said angrily: "Lai Guojin! Do you still have the law of the king in your eyes? Come on, stick ten sticks, and set up rules for him!"

"You dare!"

Lai Guojin glared at him. How could Liu Yun, a villain, be so majestic when he shyly hugged his thigh behind Cao Kaihe?

Cao Kaihe's face was ugly—what's the matter, isn't this old Zhao head Lai Guojin's confidant?
He stared at Lai Guojin, why did he think that this guy was capable of doing things before?
Lai Guojin didn't dare to look back at that place, and only kept shouting for injustice, protesting that Liu Yun could not abuse the torture just based on the old Zhao's one-sided words, "Is your lord going to torture him into a trick?!"

"I beat you, not for the conclusion of this hidden weapon," Liu Yun shouted, "Just because you have no law and contempt for the government! Come on, drag it down, and try again after the fight!"
