Chapter 1357: The higher the position, the greater the selfishness
Because he had been close to the people of the Baiqisi, Xuan Shijing knew the power of the Baiqisi.
The matter has just been born so shortly, and Your Majesty knows exactly who the murderer is, and it seems a bit unlikely. The remaining one is that Your Majesty has asked the people from the Baiqisi to investigate, which may be the biggest.
Since the Baiqisi was asked to investigate, why did he issue an order to Dali Temple and ask Di Renjie to investigate the case?
I am afraid I have to give an explanation to all civil and military officials and myself? The case was seriously asked Dali Temple to investigate, but this matter could not be covered up. The matter was circulating throughout his life in Chang'an City, and he couldn't even cover it up. Since he couldn't cover it up, he would take out a copy and let someone look at it.
If it is really found out, the envoy behind it is the royal people, most of them will deal with it in a low-key manner and leave it alone.
As for the subsequent incident of His Majesty's intention to let Di Renjie not be bad in private, the meaning is very clear. He asked Dali Temple to temporarily stop this matter and not solve the case for a long time. His Majesty scolded the officials of Dali Temple in the court, and then continued to urge him. After the days were long, the matter would be over.
This is also a method of mixing with His Majesty.
Who said that the emperor cannot have selfishness? Just sitting in that seat, the power in his hands is the greatest, and selfishness is also the greatest.
However, all this was Xuan Shijing's guess. If it wasn't for Li Xiang, but someone else, he would have to bear the overwhelming anger of His Majesty.
As for the follow-up, it depends on Your Majesty who knows who the commander behind him is.
The identity of the envoy behind the scenes determines whether the case will be handled publicly or to settle the matter.
"Yes, mentor, the student will quickly return to Chang'an City after a while. After so long, I believe that the two subordinates of the student should have found out some news in Chang'an City." Di Renjie bowed and said.
Xuan Shijing and Di Renjie chatted in the room for a long time, until Jinyang brought the medicine into the room, and Di Renjie said goodbye to the two.
Di Renjie, who had left the county government, rushed back to Chang'an City with whip.
"What have you said after chatting with Lord Di for so long?" Jinyang sat beside the bed and fed Xuan Shijing to drink medicine.
"I've told you a little bit about my opinion on this case and why he received the will of His Majesty to investigate this case." Xuan Shijing said.
"Who can anyone investigate this case besides Di Renjie, in addition to this minister in the court?" Jinyang said with a smile.
"It's different. Madam, think about it. In the past, His Majesty asked Dali Temple to solve the case. Which case did not give Di Renjie an accurate time? He said that this case must be solved within a few days. If the case cannot be solved within the specified time, then what will happen? When Di Renjie was there just now, I asked him about the imperial edict. This time, His Majesty issued an edict to Di Renjie. The imperial edict did not say how long it took for Di Renjie to solve the case. Madam, don't you think it's strange?"
After Xuan Shijing mentioned this, Jinyang paused the movements in his hand. Xuan Yujin simply raised his head slightly and drank the potion in the spoon.
Jinyang came back to his senses and continued to feed Xuan Shijing medicine.
"My husband means that the emperor already knows who the person behind this is." Jin Yang said: "The so-called investigation of the case now is just a formality."
"We don't know this. Anyway, I'll wait and see. It's useless to worry so much." Xuan Shijing smiled and said, "With this worrying skill, I might as well lie down here to recover from my injuries."
Even if you are worried, you can't do anything at most. At most, tell Di Renjie and let Di Renjie be careful when doing things.
Although Di Renjie has been in office for a lot of time, he is still too young. The methods in the officialdom are much older than when he was just now. After Xuan Shijing has said what he should say, let Di Renjie figure out the rest.
At this time, you have to try to believe that Di Renjie is not.
Always helping him like this is not conducive to his growth. Xuan Shijing also wants to see how a generation of famous officials went from being a smart boy to a pillar of the country. He could not provide too much protection.
If necessary, it is okay to give it a little, and it is OK to push it.
Who made Di Renjie even use the title of "teacher".
Di Renjie started his career as an official in Chang'an City with the recommendation of Xuan Shijing. Xuan Shijing could also be the "teacher".
After Di Renjie returned to Chang'an that day, he went to Dali Temple before he had time to change his clothes.
"Fan Cheng, where is Zhengqing?" After Di Renjie arrived at Dali Temple, Fan Cheng was the only one.
"I'm still inquiring about the news outside, but I heard that I'm already a little surprised." Fan Cheng said.
"What did he say?" Di Renjie asked.
"Didn't you ask Zhengqing to inquire at several city gates east of Chang'an City before? It turns out that some people saw a group of people riding horses and rushing out of the city yesterday, and they all carried weapons. The weapons they carried were the same as those drawn on the drawings sent back by the adults." Fan Cheng said.
"That's right." Di Renjie said: "The Duke of Qi and His Highness of King E only decided temporarily to leave Chang'an and go up to the village. From the time they left Daozhengfang and then to the assassin to pursue people, there would not be too much time between them. In other words, the people behind them sent people to chase after them after they knew that Duke of Qi and His Highness of King E had left. It was considered a temporary intention and would not be too sufficiently prepared. Therefore, there would inevitably be some flaws. In this way, let Zhengqing continue to chase along this line."
"Yes, sir." Fan Cheng said.
"By the way, do you have any news?" Di Renjie asked.
"There is no big news for the time being. Many officials in Chang'an City were also a little surprised after hearing about this. They did not expect that someone would attack His Highness E and Duke Qi around Chang'an City." Fan Cheng said: "But Wang Hongyi has been walking around in Chang'an City recently and doesn't know what he wants to do."
"Wang Hongyi?" Di Renjie frowned: "I remember he was a person next to Lai Junchen? When Lai Junchen went to Langya, he later helped when Lai Junchen tried the Zheng family's case."
Although he is an official, people like Wang Hongyi are basically considered to be the ones who stand in the team in the eyes of everyone. Wang Hongyi is the one who came to Junchen, which is a conclusion.
