Chapter 626: The outcome is already divided? Accidents again and again
Chapter 626: Is the outcome decided?
Accidents one after another
In Lin'an City!
With the death of Geng Wang, the pressure exerted on the civil servants by the arrival of the Golden Envoy was instantly dissipated, and even made their arrogance even higher!
The ministers still sat in silence outside the palace, and countless students began to march in the city.
There are even people who don't know the truth.
Moreover, someone once again submitted a letter to eliminate Geng Wang's previous convictions and to grant him a posthumous title...
All the civil servants were preparing to welcome the fruits of their victory with smiles of victory. Behind the scenes, Zhu Zhuo and others were watching the storm, preparing to take the opportunity to set foot in the court again!
Although things are far from over, everything is according to their plan...
However, at this moment, two earth-shattering things suddenly happened.
First, the Imperial City Bureau suddenly surrounded Zhang Tianhua's residence.
To be honest, if it hadn't been for this incident, almost everyone would have forgotten the instigator.
After all, although he was considered a figure in the court, he did not have much influence, and he could not play any role in the struggle between the civil servant group and the emperor.
In fact, even the Wenchen Group had vaguely given up on this person and only waited until the matter was over and let him disappear quietly after the news passed.
But as the Imperial City Secretary surrounded his residence, this piece of Tianhua appeared in everyone's sight again.
In Zhu Zhuo's house, the chess pieces in Zhu Zhuo's hand fell to the ground. He, who had always been confident, now had a solemn face.
After a long while, Zhu Zhuo suddenly said, "Immediately cut off all ties with Zhang Tianhua.
In addition, the Tibetan envoy should also appear."
"Sir, the connection between us and Zhang Tianhua is secret, so no one should notice it.
Moreover, now that the matter has been settled, it doesn’t matter whether Zhang Tianhua lives or dies!"
Zhu Zhuo sneered, "Don't forget, the cause of everything now is all on him.
Those two Tubo people are still in Zhang Tianhua's house. Once Zhang Tianhua is found to have connections with Tubo, everything before will be overturned!"
"So, Zhang Tianhua can die, but they cannot be allowed to connect this incident with others.
Let's do it, this matter can't be delayed any longer..."
Tang Situi nodded slightly, but just when he was about to answer, Zhu Zhuo's old servant hurriedly barged in.
"Master! Something is wrong!"
Just when everyone was paying attention to Zhang Tianhua's mansion, a piece of inconspicuous news came as if it was earth-shattering.
The magistrate of Ninghai County, Taizhou, found out that a former official had invaded farmland and forced three farmers to death! The evidence was conclusive and the verdict was pronounced!
Speaking of which, even when he was in office, this official was only from the sixth rank and was not considered a figure at all.
There were countless officials of this level in the entire Song Dynasty. Even after he became an official, few people remembered his name.
However, the coincidence of the timing of this incident allowed this humble official to enjoy treatment that was difficult for generals and ministers to enjoy.
This official was born as a scholar and was a genuine member of the civil service lineage. Although he had already become an official, his identity could not be faked.
Moreover, although there are no regulations in the officialdom, according to the unspoken rules, now that you have become an official, no one will ever investigate further even if there were some crimes at the beginning.
After all, everyone has the day to become an official, and no one wants to wait until they retire and return home only to be settled by future generations.
However, this magistrate of Ninghai County not only acted recklessly but also failed to sentence him.
And he cut it cleanly! Almost instantly, the incident spread to Lin'an, causing an uproar again.
Originally, all the civil servants were using Geng Wang to fight with the emperor. This kind of thing involved the interests of all civil servants. Therefore, with the joint efforts of the civil servants headed by Zhu Zhuo, even Zhao Shen was helpless. Even, because Geng Wang's death caused a lot of confusion! However, just when the civil servant was about to win, something like this happened.
On ordinary days, the death of a minor official who had become an official would never cause any waves.
However, his identity and the time of his death made this small incident like thunder, exploding in Lin'an City...
"Your Majesty, this is the memorial sent by the magistrate of Ninghai County!"
In the Chongzheng Hall, Zhao Shen's eyes were filled with surprise and relief. Thinking of the stiff expressions of the civil servants that Wang Quan had told him a moment ago, he almost laughed out loud if he didn't have some self-restraint.
I really didn't expect that the Lin'an city fight was in full swing, but a magistrate of Ninghai County directly broke the balance, and slapped those people on the face. How could this make Zhao Shen unhappy?
"What does it say?"
Zhao Shen asked.
Wang Quan opened the memorial and said after a moment, "Your Majesty, what is listed in it are Wu Tian's crimes!"
The Wu Tian mentioned by Wang Quan was the name of this junior official.
With his status, even in office, the emperor would never know about such a small person.
However, after his death, his name was actually placed in front of the emperor's case. This can be considered an honor...
"The charges are very familiar, and the trial process, all witness testimonies, and descriptions of the exhibits are all included!"
"good!"
Zhao Shen clapped his hands and said, "Good kill!"
"By the way, what did Wang Hu gain?"
Zhao Shen asked again.
"Your Majesty, because the Imperial City Secretary's appearance was so sudden, Zhang Tianhua's mansion was completely unprepared! Wang Hu has detained everyone in the mansion. News just came that Wang Hu found a huge amount of silver in Zhang Tianhua's mansion. , more than five hundred thousand taels.
Moreover, two Tubo people were found in a secret room in the mansion.
However, when Wang Hu and others entered the secret room, the two Tubo people probably knew that they would not survive, so they took poison and died!"
Neither Zhu Zhuo nor Zhang Tianhua would have thought that the Imperial City Division not only surrounded Zhang Tianhua's residence, but also directly found the secret room in the study, which prevented Zhu Zhuo's back-up tactics from being used at all. , the two Tubo people were directly exposed.
"Tubo people..."
Zhao Shen's face condensed!
Of course he was not an idiot, and he figured it out almost in an instant. I am afraid that the reason why Zhang Tianhua listed Shen Tang's crimes in the first place was precisely because the Tubo people were behind it. However, was it the Tubo people who threatened Zhang Tianhua or this Tianhua book? It has other purposes, but it is currently unknown.
"Litong feudal country, damn it!"
Zhao Shen cursed, and then said in a cold voice, "Order Wang Hu to watch Zhang Tianhua for me, and I must pry open his mouth!"
