Stepmother's Adoption Letter

Chapter 171 The truth (1)
When the old lady arrived at the front, Shuntian Fu Yin had already been invited in.The master and servants of the family were all overwhelmed with work, and there was no one to entertain him, so he didn't feel that he was being neglected.Not to mention this Cheng Guogong's mansion, even when he heard the news that Cheng Guogong's mansion was hijacked by a group of mobs in the suburbs of Beijing, he broke into a cold sweat from fright!
This is at the feet of the emperor, and the riots of the mob can make him lose his official position!This Mrs. Cheng Guogong is still the prince's sister-in-law. If something happens to her, if she doesn't blame her today, there is no guarantee that the prince will not give him little shoes in the future.

The old lady came out with a cane, and Shuntian Fu Yin hurriedly stood up.

The old lady's face was very unhappy, but seeing that Shuntian Fu Yin in front of her was also in her forties, his clothes were wrinkled, his hair was disheveled, and he looked rather embarrassed, so she eased her expression, asked the servant girl to serve tea, and asked He sat down and talked.

The old lady said politely: "I can save my family smoothly, thank you for your trouble."

Yin of Shuntian Mansion cupped his hands and said: "Don't dare, the lower officials' supervision is not effective, so these mobs have been dormant at the feet of the emperor for so long."

The old lady pondered for a while, then said, "I wonder how many people my lord has arrested this time?"

"More than 20 people were captured alive, and more than [-] corpses were found nearby."

That's more than 100 people.An ordinary village with five or sixty people is a very large village. Where did these one hundred people come from?Of course, the old lady guessed that these people had something to do with Cheng Guogong's mansion, and her heart was pounding.

Yin of Shuntian Mansion was also thinking in his heart, this group of people came to Cheng Guogong's mansion, how should they report to the government then?
Both of them remained silent for a long time before the old lady said: "I'll trouble my lord to interrogate these people about their origins, but our family is really innocent, so please learn from me."

The old lady's posture is low, which means that they want to put themselves in the position of the victim in Cheng Guogong's government, so you can figure it out.

Shuntian Fu Yin has been in charge of the capital's law and order for many years, and it's not for nothing. Now that the prisoner hasn't been interrogated, he doesn't know what's going on, and he doesn't dare to promise rashly. Taijun is relieved."

The two exchanged polite words, and Shuntian Fu Yin was still busy going back to interrogate the prisoner, and the old lady didn't stay any longer, so someone sent him out of the house.

This incident was very sensational in the capital, Shuntian Fu Yin led hundreds of people to go out in person, and tied a large number of people into the city.This cannot be concealed no matter what.

Even the emperor frowned when he knew about it. At the foot of the emperor, there are not many big families with Zhuangzi fields.The consequences were quite astonishing.He hurriedly asked people to put the arrested people in the prison of the Ministry of punishment, but only gave Shangshu of the Ministry of punishment three days.If there is no reason to find out in three days, the matter will be handed over to Dali Temple, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the three divisions will be interrogated.

The Ministry of Penalties handles criminal cases across the country, and is in charge of government orders such as penalties and prisons.However, if a major case is encountered, it must be reviewed jointly with Dali Temple and the Metropolitan Procuratorate.It can be said that the Ministry of Criminal Justice is responsible for investigating the case, and Dali Temple has the right to reject it.

It can be seen that the emperor also attached great importance to this matter.

As soon as Yin of Shuntian Prefecture caught the prisoners, he interrogated them overnight. These people turned out to be villagers from the generation of Hejian Prefecture. Because of the disaster in their hometown, they came to the capital to beg for a living.When passing by that Zhuangzi, he was tricked into signing a contract of selling himself.The steward tricked them with money and asked them to bring more fellow villagers.
