Chapter 0984 about Kaiji
In the Ministry of Justice, Zheng Changsheng looked dark and didn't touch the situation when he was just a newcomer.
In the yamen where the water is very deep, he dared not make any big moves rashly.
Besides, Lao Zhu sent him to take over the Ministry of Justice, which actually had another purpose.
The officer and two coroners who were responsible for the autopsy of the prince died too strangely.
The three people didn’t know that coal soot was toxic? You should know that even in the capital, even ordinary people knew that using coal to heat was necessary to set up ventilation pipes.
With such a large yamen in the Ministry of Justice, a large amount of coal is used every winter to keep heating, and there are special lectures and trainings on preventing tobacco and poison.
But the three old officials died just like this, silently and without wind or waves.
If you say there are no ghosts here, you won’t believe it if you say that the heaven is gone.
However, the Jinyiwei investigated for a long time, but he didn't ask any questions.
This is either really ignorant or it is a solid piece of paper, and the upper and lower parts have already unified the caliber.
If it is the latter, then the problem will be serious.
However, Zheng Changsheng believes that there is no airtight wall in this world, and there is no so-called iron plate.
As the saying goes, in a strong fortress, you are afraid of breaking through from the inside.
After coming to the Ministry of Justice, he did nothing and wanted to keep these people.
Only by performing their own duties can we observe secretly and find flaws.
The idea was very good, but time was tight and he couldn't wait.
Oh no, to be precise, I'm afraid Lao Zhu can't afford to wait.
There is nothing more urgent than finding out the truth about the death of the prince than Lao Zhu.
You should know that this involves his other beloved son, Zhu Xiaosi.
The eldest son died and the fourth son was suspected. This was undoubtedly a huge blow to a father.
Finding out the truth and finding the real murderer behind the scenes, nothing can make Lao Zhu feel more at ease than this goal.
Zheng Changsheng noticed Wu Chong, the yamen runner in the back hall of the Ministry of Justice, as soon as he came in, he noticed him.
He is definitely not ordinary to be able to serve Kai Ji, the Minister of Justice in the back hall and serve Kai Ji, the Minister of Justice. Not to mention that he is the relatives and six relatives of Kai Ji, he is at least a person who has lived in Kai Jixin.
Otherwise, he would not have been allowed to enter the back hall.
Therefore, after a test, Zheng Changsheng really found out the details of Wu Chong.
Wu Chong's eyes were wet, and he begged Zheng Changsheng with red eyes: "The villain knows your status in the Jinyiwei. Please send a message to the Jinyiwei and ask them to let the adults out.
He is really a good person. He relies on the merits and blessings of his father. He worked in the Ministry of Justice at the age of seventeen. He served several ministers of Shangshu, but none of them regarded villains as human beings.
Only when Kai Gong and Gu Nian's father sacrificed his life for the country on the battlefield, he was very concerned about the villain.
The younger brothers and sisters in the family are becoming more and more adults, and the old mother in the high hall serves them. The villain's salary is meager, so it is really difficult to support the family.
He would send me to do some simple things every month to give me some rewards.
But I knew that it was because he was afraid that I would lose face and hurt my self-esteem, so he deliberately arranged an errand for me. It seemed natural to give small money on this ground.
How could a person as kind as he is, a corrupt official, and how could he be a treason?
He must have offended the old men of the Jinyiwei, and they used the excuse to find fault and arrest him.
The Jinyiwei men have always acted without any scruples. They arrest whoever they want, and they will charge them whatever they want.
As the saying goes, why not worry about adding a crime?
Isn’t it that Lord Kaiji’s crime allowed them to speak nonsense?”
Zheng Changsheng looked at Wu Chong who was excited, walked forward, patted him on the shoulder: "Wu Chong, I believe you are a loyal person.
It is very good that a person can remain loyal and loyal when his master is in trouble.
I admire you very much.
However, this time you really misunderstood the Jinyiwei.
I know what Kaiji is doing.
He was involved in a big case of Tongtian, and arresting him would be light. If his crime was confirmed, it would not be too much to kill the nine clans."
"Ah?" Wu Chong looked at Zheng Changsheng in horror: "How is that possible? I serve him all day long, and he meets and does whatever he does every day.
To be honest, I know exactly what color he shit is.
How could he commit such a serious crime? This must be a false accusation."
"Oh? In this way, you are also the confidant of Lord Kaiji."
"I don't dare to be a confidant, but I don't have anything to do with me on my back. When I meet, I will serve tea and water next to me.
All the things we talked about were official duties of the court, and there was almost no idleness.
Occasionally, when relatives come to ask him for business, he refuses it all at once, which makes his relatives and sixty-six people very dissatisfied with him and has complained about his "ungratefulness".
When we were young, our family was in a difficult situation and we were very helped by our relatives.
However, he became a second-rank official in the court of the Minister of Justice. He always asked for help from relatives and never favored himself.
You said, how could such an official who devoted himself to the court and devoted himself to the emperor...?
When he talked about this, Wu Chong could no longer control himself and could not speak.
Zheng Changsheng was surprised. Unexpectedly, he didn't expect that Kaiji would have such an unknown side.
"Well, I understand. You must believe in the Emperor and the Ming Dynasty's law.
If he is really innocent, he will be acquitted one day sooner or later."
Wu Chong wiped his tears: "Sir, I think, Lord Kaiji may not be able to wait for the day of acquittal release."
Zheng Changsheng frowned: "Why do you say this?"
"You don't know that when Lord Kaiji was first arrested, I was entrusted by his family to send him some clothes and food and drink to the prison.
At that time, Lord Kai had been tortured by the Jinyiwei and was tortured torture.
Now I am not allowed to visit the prison, and I don’t know if his body can last for the end under the punishment of the Jinyiwei.”
"Damn it, Mao Xiang is getting more and more unruly in his work.
It has been said since ancient times: "The punishment cannot be punished."
No matter what, Kaiji is also a second-rank official in the court. Although there is no conclusive evidence, the incident involves the dead prince, and he will be arrested. However, it is a bit too much to mobilize such a second-rank official."
With the previous incident, Zheng Changsheng's disgust towards Mao Xiang became stronger and stronger.
Zheng Changsheng thought for a moment with a brow frown: "Wu Chong ordered someone to prepare a car, and follow me to the imperial prison of Jinyiwei to meet Lord Kaiji."
