Jinyi Town Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 28 Ding Wang is Dead
He Liu's heart was shocked: "Jubao Yaoshu"?Jiangnan?

You know, "Jubao Yaoshu" is the only clue to the "ghost house case" 20 years ago.It is also the only clue to find out the cause of death of his father and wife!
Lu Bing coughed: "Ding Wang, don't talk about things that have nothing to do with this case. Answer my fourth question."

Ding Wang replied: "I am not the dragon and phoenix among those who have a long-term memory in the Imperial Academy. There are more than 800 officials and thousands of illegal affairs. My head is not so good. I will summarize these thousands of illegal affairs. It became a book of "Hundred Officials' Records", and put it in..."

"Where is it?" Lu Bing stood up and asked.

Ding Wang suddenly stared straight.Then with a "gulp" sound, he spat out a mouthful of blood.Immediately afterwards, blood flowed from the eyes, nose, and ears.

Lu Bing rushed in front of Ding Wang, "Quickly tell me, where did you hide the "Baiguan Xinglu"?"

Ding Wang drooped his head, he could only breathe in and not get out—he was dead!

Lu Bing's eyes were red, and he tugged at Ding Wang's hair: "Tell me! Where did you hide that "Baiguan Xinglu"?"

Zhao Ci reminded Lu Bing: "Commander, it's useless, Ding Wang is dead!"

Lu Bing stood up: "Someone poisoned? Tea! Where's the wrestler who brought tea in just now?"

Jin Wanguan walked outside the truth room and shouted: "On duty, who brought the tea in just now?"

"Third Lord Jin, it's Fatty Sun. He just said that he had a stomachache after delivering the tea just now, and he went home!" said a warrior on duty.

Lu Bing walked out of the truth-telling room and ordered Jin Wanguan: "Third brother, you lead someone, and arrest that Fatty Sun immediately!"

Jin Wanguan took the order and left.

Lu Bing went back to the truth-telling room and told He Liu and Zhao Ci: "Young Sixth, Old Twelfth, Ding Wang's confession, you must not mention it to anyone! Violators—you know the family rules of our Jinyiwei." of."

He Liu and Zhao Ci knelt down and said in unison: "This subordinate obeys orders."

Lu Bing added: "Now I will bring the confession to the palace to meet the emperor. Before I come back, you two must not leave Beizhen Fusi Yamen!"

"Subordinates obey."

With Ding Wang's confession in his arms, Lu Bing got into the sedan chair and went straight to Yongshou Palace.

In the sedan chair, Lu Bing's mind was spinning rapidly: "Hundred Officials' Records" recorded thousands of illegal affairs of 800 officials.If the Yan Party, the Yuwang Party, and the Eunuch Party knew of the existence of "Hundred Officials' Records", they would definitely plan and use all means to snatch it.Whoever masters the "Hundred Officials' Records" is equivalent to controlling more than [-] officials, large and small, and is equivalent to controlling the court! "

Half an hour later, the main hall of Yongshou Palace.

Emperor Jiajing was wearing a Taoist robe, sitting cross-legged on a futon with a green gauze curtain.In front of the green gauze curtain, Lu Bing knelt down.

At this moment, there are only two people in the entire hall, Lu Bing and Emperor Jiajing.

After reading Ding Wang's confession, Emperor Jiajing roared angrily in the green gauze curtain: "You are deceiving the heavens!"

After Longyan was furious, the confession was thrown out of the green veil.

Kneeling, Lu Bing moved forward a few steps and picked up the confession.

Emperor Jiajing said in the green veil: "Lu Bing, if someone gets the "Hundred Officials Record", they can plot evil! Block the news, don't let anyone know the existence of the "Hundred Officials Record"! Jin Yiwei must spare no effort The method is to find the "Hundred Officials Records"!"

Lu Bing said: "I obey the order."

Emperor Jiajing said again: "Ding Wang's case should not be publicized. Your Jinyiwei must confiscate all his 500 million taels of ill-gotten wealth. After the confiscation - don't hand it over to the national treasury, all of it will be handed over to the internal shipping warehouse!"

The inner carrier warehouse, to put it bluntly, is the private warehouse of Emperor Jiajing.

Lu Bing kowtowed again and said, "I obey the order."

Emperor Jiajing continued: "You must interrogate that Yin Zhou Zigao of Shuntian Mansion strictly. If you can't get any clues from the "Hundred Officials Records" from him, you will have him secretly executed in the Imperial Prison! When Jinyiwei handed over a case in Shuntian Mansion, he suddenly died of a sudden illness. Also, find out who poisoned Ding Wang!"

"The minister obeys the order."

Just now Emperor Jiajing's dragon roar alarmed all the eunuchs waiting outside the palace.

Lu Fang, the eunuch who was in charge of the chief inspector of ceremonies, walked in: "Your Majesty, you must take care of the dragon's body."

Just now Emperor Jiajing ordered all the eunuchs to serve outside the main hall, who would dare to defy the imperial decree and enter the main hall?Only Lu Fang!Because Lu Fang was the most trusted eunuch around Emperor Jiajing.

Emperor Jiajing obviously didn't want Lu Fang to know about the "Hundred Officials Record".He angrily scolded Lu Bing in the green gauze curtain: "Lu Bing, what are you doing for food? Do you still need to ask me about this kind of imperial relatives who rape women from good families? Just arrest him and put him in prison that is!"

Lu Bing knew that his emperor was changing the subject, so he said obsequiously: "I am confused, I deserve death for my crimes, and I hope the emperor will calm down and take care of the dragon's body."

"Okay, go down!" Emperor Jiajing said.

Lu Bing withdrew from the hall.

Lu Fang sent Lu Bing out of Yongshou Palace.In the entire imperial court, after meeting the emperor, Lu Fang would send him out of the palace in person, and there were only three people: Yan Song, Yan Ge Lao, Yu Wang, and Commander Lu Binglu.

Lu Fang asked Lu Bing: "Why did the emperor get so angry just now? Which of the emperor's relatives did that mediocre thing?"

Lu Bing replied: "It's about the dignity of the royal family. The emperor won't let me spread the matter."

Lu Fang smiled sullenly: "Oh, the miscellaneous people are talking too much! Commander Lu is in charge of the entire Jinyiwei, how hard it is. In fact, Jinyiwei can entrust Dongchang to handle some small cases. Those little monkey cubs are happy to share the worries of Commander Lu."

Lu Bing said: "It must be. The people in Dongchang are all trained by Eunuch Lu, and they are all good at handling cases. When the time comes, Eunuch Lu doesn't think I'm putting more burden on Dongchang."

Lu Fang said casually: "Commander Lu is overrated. How can those little monkey cubs in the East Factory compare to Jin Yiwei? Commander Lu, you are a dragon and phoenix among people, it goes without saying. Jin Yiwei's [-]th Taibao is also a They are all shrewd and capable people. Oh, yes, I heard that Yin Zhou Zigao of Shuntian Mansion went to Jinyiwei to hand over the case, and he didn't return to the Yamen of Shuntian Mansion all day and night?"

Lu Bing's heart skipped a beat: This Lu Fang seems to be very concerned about Zhou Zigao.Did Lu Fang know about the relationship between Zhou Zigao and Ding Wang?Do you know the existence of "Hundred Officials Records"?

Lu Bing explained: "I'm not very clear about this. Should I hand over the case to one of my subordinates? I'll go back and ask."

Lu Fang cupped his hands: "The miscellaneous family respectfully send Commander Lu."

Lu Bing returned the salute: "Thank you, Eunuch Lu."

Although Lu Fang and Lu Bing treated each other with courtesy, the officials in the DPRK and China knew that there was a secret fight between the two, between Dongchang and Jin Yiwei, and the two sides were on fire.

Lu Bing got into the sedan chair.I thought in my heart that I really encountered a difficult thing this time.

If Jin Yiwei can't find the "Hundred Officials' Records", then there is no way to explain it in front of the emperor.

Find the "Baiguan Xinglu" and give it to the emperor.In a rage, the emperor set off a big case.He, Lu Bing, did not know how many officials' blood would be stained on his hands.At that time, he, Lu Bing, became the target of public criticism.The Yan Party, the Yuwang Party, and the Eunuch Party will put aside their previous suspicions and join forces to deal with him.At that time, even if the emperor wanted to protect him, he might not be able to.

Lu Bing rubbed his head, his head hurts badly now.
