Zongwu: The Days of Mixing in the Tongfu Inn

Chapter 304 In-depth investigation
In the Gongyuan examination room, Zhang Chen and others finally checked out the scholars in the huge examination room.

"I won't do it next time I'm beaten to death. I'm really exhausted these days!"

Bai Zhantang slumped on the ground and said.

These days, they have spent most of their energy just to find out the family background and other information of these people.

In addition to this, they have to repeatedly confirm that there are no mistakes, otherwise, their small actions may lead to the failure of a person's entire life.

"Persist a little longer, when we hand over all the information, maybe His Majesty the Emperor will summon us.

I can already imagine that scene, let the reward hit me hard! "

Zhu Yipin said hey, he had experience in this matter once, and he got a lot of benefits from hanging out with Zhang Chen last time.

"Uh~"

Bai Zhantang was speechless, but on the other hand he felt that what Zhu Yipin said made sense.

"Old Zhu is turning things around quickly, maybe he will really get what he wants."

Zhang Chen then replied that the incident this time is not a small one. It is estimated that the emperor will indeed summon them, but whether they can get a reward depends on whether they can solve this incident in the end.

After hearing Zhang Chen's affirmative answer, Zhu Yipin and Bai Zhantang became more motivated. The two of them can now be regarded as poor ghosts.

After a short while, the materials were finally sorted out after everyone worked together.

"Shocking!"

Looking at the final evidence after sorting out, Zhang Chenfan sighed.

In this Gongyuan examination room, there were dozens of people who were suspected of leaking the examination questions. They were all like Lin Xiucai, who behaved leisurely and at ease after getting the examination questions.

However, it was precisely because of this that the few of them had the opportunity to thoroughly investigate them in this short period of time.

Zhang Chen didn't lament how long it took, and Catcher had already arrived here with his people.

"Huh? Your Excellency?"

Seeing Catcher who appeared here, Zhang Chen was a little puzzled. The news that he had sorted out the evidence should not have spread, so why did he come here?

"Zhang Chen has something urgent and needs you to go immediately!"

Catcher said hastily.

Zhang Chen raised the evidence in Yang's hand, then looked at Catcher and said, "But the evidence has just been summarized here, and later..."

Before Zhang Chen could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by the Catcher again: "It's related to this matter, since it's been concluded, let's find it and take it with us to see His Majesty."

Zhang Chen nodded and agreed. It turned out that His Majesty had called urgently, no wonder he was in such a hurry.

"Then we..."

Zhu Yipin said quietly after hearing the words, he still wants to go to the palace with Zhang Chen again.

"You guys go together."

Catching God's ears moved slightly, then turned to look at Zhu Yipin and the others and said.

Zhu Yipin was overjoyed, he didn't expect Catcher to hear his words, and also agreed to let them go to the palace.

"Sooner rather than later, you start now"

Catcher pointed behind him and said.

The few people didn't say any more, they bowed their hands to Catcher again, then turned and left together.

An hour later, everyone rushed to the palace, and Zhang Chen saw the young emperor again in the familiar hall.

"You are here."

The emperor said lightly.

Everyone quickly saluted.

"Don't be too polite, the main reason for calling you here this time is for the people around me."

After getting everyone to stand up, the emperor directly mentioned the purpose of this time.

"There are many people involved in this case. I am not sure who is the real criminal and who is wronged, so I need your help."

The emperor's voice was mellow and majestic, making everyone feel a sense of oppression.

During this period of time, Zhang Chen and the others were investigating, and the emperor was not idle. People from the East and West factories had been investigating these officials outside, and now it was at the final stage.

The emperor knew in his heart that some of the people who investigated the east and west factories must be implicated. Some people in the two factories did not trust the emperor, so the emperor thought of them.

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, we will try our best to solve this matter and give you a satisfactory answer."

Zhang Chen bowed slightly, expressing his attitude.

"Okay, very good, I like such clean and tidy people, if that's the case, then please start."

The emperor nodded and signaled that they could start the investigation. The emperor wanted to cut through the mess and finish the matter quickly. He wanted to take advantage of everyone's attention on Chunwei and beat the people involved to death with a hammer.

Otherwise, when the spring is over, he will not have such an opportunity again, and those civil servants will definitely not let the emperor kill people.

Several people nodded tacitly, and then rushed out to start their work. This time the task was extremely difficult, but they could not live up to the emperor's high expectations and trust anyway.

The emperor sitting in a high position did not know whether their motivation was in the gold, silver and jewelry after the event, or in the firm implementation of the idea of ​​loyalty to the emperor and patriotism.

If Zhang Chen knew what he was thinking, Zhang Chen would definitely dismiss it. Others, Zhang Chen would not dare to speak nonsense, but the reason why he himself participated in it was not for the so-called gold and silver treasures, but to enjoy the fun of solving the case.

"Where shall we go first?"

After walking out of the hall, Zhu Yipin hurriedly asked what to do next, he had already heard some kind of hint from the emperor.

"You are so positive."

Liu Ruoxin cast a glance at Zhu Yipin and said.

"Hmph, I don't know as much as you do."

Zhu Yipin snorted, but he didn't continue what Liu Ruoxin said.

"Let's go, first go to Mr. Zhou from the Ministry of Rites. He plays a very important role in it."

Zhang Chen sighed and said, just now the emperor had given him all the things these days, and Zhang Chen saw many names in it, it's no wonder the emperor urgently recruited them to handle the case.

There is a lot involved in this, no matter which official is behind it, it represents a side of power, let alone the confidant next to the emperor.

Yang Yuxuan and Bai Zhantang didn't care about Zhang Chen's choice. The two of them were only responsible for picking people up, and they were not to be asked for other matters.

"Then go."

Seeing that there was no objection, Zhang Chen identified the direction and took the lead to walk outside the imperial city.

………………

At Zhou Yuji's house in the Ministry of Rites, Zhang Chen and the others looked at the front with solemn expressions, as if there was some kind of flood and wild beast that troubled them.

"What the hell is this!!!"

Zhu Yipin said in shock.

It's no wonder they reacted like this. It turned out that when they came to Zhou Yuji's home, they found that Mr. Zhou had been silenced, and none of the dozen or so members of the family were spared.

　Thanks for the support!
