Chapter 167 Bad move (1)
He Guangyi's hands drooped, his body bowed slightly, and stood outside the Ganqing Palace like a little hunched back, waiting for the emperor's summons.
He was very nervous. The reason for this was not because he had just captured several prince consorts, the brother of the imperial concubine, and a group of meritorious children.
But because of this, it was not the Jinyiwei who took the initiative to arrest him, but the emperor ordered him to arrest him.
In the past, the Jinyiwei secretly reported to the emperor about what happened, but now the emperor knows everything and regards the Jinyiwei as a man to execute it.
This is not a good thing. Although He Guangyi knew that their Jinyiwei was just one of the emperor's many eyeliners, this feeling was very bad. First, there was a crisis of lowering trust, and second, if this continued, Jinyiwei would be dispensable in the emperor's heart.
When his mind was in chaos, the turtle-evil shame came out of it and whispered, "Commander He, please!"
"I'm responsible for it!" He Guangyi held his fists and saluted, then took a deep breath.
~~
Zhu Yunqiu was sitting on the Arhat bed reviewing the memorial in his hand, frowned slightly, and the expression on his face seemed a little unhappy.
"He Guangyi..."
"Everyone has been arrested!" Zhu Yunxiu spoke softly and continued to look at the memorial. He did not let He Guangyi salute, nor did he go to see him.
He Guangyi hurriedly said, "Yes, all the relevant people have been arrested!" As he said, he paused, "Now they are all locked in the prison of the Jinyiwei Fushi Department, and have not yet heard from the outside!"
Then, he looked up at the emperor's side face, "No one in Yancheng, Huai'an has left. The salt ships, salt merchants, and officials involved in the salt transportation in Lianghuai were arrested and brought to justice. A total of 79 people!"
As soon as he finished speaking, He Guangyi heard the emperor sigh deeply, and his head felt lowered.
This is not a small number, and with the usual style of the officialdom, if you really want to investigate deeply and pull out the radish and bring out the mud, all kinds of small and big things will probably be ten times more together.
Corrupt officials are not thieves. Thieves are caught when they take action for the first time. Corrupt officials are caught when they are greedy.
"Check it!" Zhu Yunxiu said lightly, and waved his hand powerlessly, "Fast, strict, and heavy!"
He Guangyi took a step forward, "Your Majesty, what are the princesses involved..."
"I didn't say it clearly?" Zhu Yunxi looked at He Guangyi with a bad look, "Did you not hear what you said just now or did you not take it to your heart?"
"I dare not!" He Guangyi was instantly panicked and said, "It's just that several princes, I still want to ask the emperor for instructions. After all...?"
"No, after all!" Zhu Yunxi glanced at him, wanting to laugh.
There are all human spirits around me, and they are all full of 800 ignorances.
In this matter, the prince consort involved is nothing!
Those princes, except Hu Guan, are not as big as Li Fangying!
He Guangyi is asking the emperor how to treat it differently.
As for why we should treat differently... Anyone who has a heart should understand. Moreover, if this is also a different meaning, can we be punished?
At this time, the turtlema said softly outside, "Long live, the prince is coming down!"

Later, Zhu Gaochi's chubby body moved in from outside, with a layer of sweat on his head.
"minister....."
"Hong Xi is here!" Zhu Yunxi smiled and raised his hand, "Good rules are exempt!" As he said, he shouted to the outside world, "Please bring Hong Xi a bowl of mung bean soup!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a bowl of ice-blooded, as if it was carrying ice chips. It looked like the cold and comfortable mung bean soup was sent on a tray.
The climate this year is abnormal. A few days ago, it rained heavily, and these days it has been exposed to the sun. It is still far from midsummer, but the sun is even more poisonous than midsummer.
Looking at the mung bean soup in front of him, Zhu Gaochi swallowed but didn't drink it.
"Drink! Look at you're hot!" Zhu Yunxi smiled, "No need to be restrained, drink it!"
"My memory..." Zhu Gaochi was a little hesitant and was very entangled in holding the bowl.
Zhu Yunxiu said strangely, "What's wrong?"
"I started last night and had some stomach upset!" Zhu Gaochi said with his head down.
"Oh! Fortunately..." Zhu Yunxi smiled meaningfully, "Fortunately, my stomach was uncomfortable! Otherwise, I wouldn't be a job!"
Upon hearing this, another layer of cold sweat appeared on Zhu Gaochi's forehead.
"Everyone has been arrested!" Zhu Yunxi looked at the two of them, "both in the prison of the tutoring department, with Hong Xi as the main and He Guangyi as the auxiliary, to try this private salt case with the largest number of people involved in the largest number of people since I ascended the throne!"
As he said, he looked at the two of them, "Remember, no matter who you are involved, you will never tolerate it!"
Then, he looked at Zhu Gaochi, "If someone else comes to do this case, it may be difficult for others to deal with. After all, it involves royal relatives. Many things that others are inconvenient and dare not deal with, you don't have so many concerns!"
"The so-called prince breaks the law and commits the same crime as the common people. I am not afraid of carrying a crooked reputation. You, the counselor of the Nanshufang and the future minister of the Ming Dynasty, should not be afraid of carrying a crooked reputation. Carrying a crooked reputation is better than the roots of the Ming Dynasty that have broken down!"
"Remember?"
Sweat fell down Zhu Gaochi's temples, "I understand!"
But he was cursing in his heart, "You are not afraid of being criticized, who dares to scold you? But I... I... can't look for my princesses to come up to me? They can't afford to offend you, they may be able to offend me, my eldest nephew!"
Thinking of him, he was sitting there, and his heart was filled with unreasonable heat.
While I was whispering in my heart, I felt my mouth dry and I couldn't help but pick up the iced mung bean soup next to me and dries it in one breath.
~~
"How to deal with the case, I am the only one who is in charge of yourselves!"
He Guangyi and Zhu Gaochi came out of the Qianqing Palace. They walked outside the Meridian Gate and He Guangyi said.
"Is the case handler an amateur? Is it still up to you?" Zhu Gaochi hurriedly refused.
"You have raised your superiors! All the officials handled cases that are not allowed to be on the table. You are the chief judge, and all the officials listen to you!" He Guangyi was also sloppy and smiled and said sideways, "Let's go to the tutoring department now?"
"Yes!" Zhu Gaochi nodded muffled, "Live in my carriage, it's spacious!"
The carriage was moving forward, and the carriage swayed.
The wide carriage looks a bit dull and airtight because the curtains are put down.
"Your Highness, how do you think you should be tried? Should you be directly punished, or...?" He Guangyi sat down for a while and began to talk.
Zhu Gaochi had a deep brow, "Is Wang Ning arrested?"
"Well, I pulled it out at home!" He Guangyi smiled, "This prince-in-law is really not brave. He was crying bitterly at that time and kept calling the princess to save him!" As he said that, he looked at Zhu Gaochi's side face and sighed, "I guess Princess Huaiqing will enter the palace in a while!"
"Since he is timid, let's start asking him, if he pours beans in a bamboo tube, how decent he can leave, we can save trouble!" Zhu Gaochi curled his lips.
He didn't need to be tried in his mind, because he knew the whole story, including the people involved. What he was puzzled in his mind was that the emperor not only asked him to judge, but also asked him to judge in the future.
It may even be that he would be sentenced to the prison on the day of the murder.
Although Zhu Gaochi had nothing to do with his son-in-law,... when his eldest nephew chopped off his uncle, is this good?
Moreover, the emperor's deeper intention was clearly to let him Zhu Gaochi walk to the front of the stage.
