"Sir, don't you mean that this matter...this matter will be settled?" Shen Liang asked while swallowing his foam.
Mou Bin sneered and said: "Calm down? Don't we need to give an explanation to the emperor, the court, and everyone? How to explain? You can tell me. I made a promise in front of the emperor for five days, and tomorrow is the last day. If there is no result, the case will be handed over to the three judicial divisions of the outer court for investigation. They will take this opportunity to investigate and exploit the problem. What will be the consequences? Have you thought about it? "
Shen Liang hurriedly lowered his head and did not dare to say anything. Indeed, this matter was such a big fuss. Even if Lord Mou and Fan Heng reached a deal, all the relevant people involved were silenced, but how to explain it openly?
If the case is really transferred to the outer court for investigation, the outer court will have reason to reach out to the Jinyiwei Yamen. Not only this case, but also many secret matters will be uncovered. The consequences will be disastrous.
"Will Zhang Yanling just give up? This time, his behavior was too calm, which is abnormal. Logically speaking, he would be furious when he was attacked, and he would definitely ask the court to investigate strictly, and he would definitely request the emperor and contact Xun Xun. Qi made many moves, but he didn’t. This made me very confused. I even suspected that he had noticed something. He was waiting for my explanation and hoped that I would give him a satisfactory result. You idiot is really You gave me a big problem. You idiot, you idiot, I wish I could chop you into pieces for getting out through such a big loophole." Mou Bin sighed and cursed.
Shen Liang said with a mournful face: "My lord, it is foolish to take a humble position. Please don't give up your humble position. I will repay you with my humble position. As long as there is a reasonable explanation for this matter, as long as the emperor approves it and the court approves it, what can Zhang Yanling do?" ? He doesn’t have any evidence at hand, otherwise how could he be so quiet? If he doesn’t agree with the results of the investigation and has no evidence, wouldn’t it be unreasonable to make trouble?”
Mou Bin frowned and pondered for a long time, then stood up and said: "Shen Liang, I'm warning you for the last time. From today on, you must put your tail between your legs and be a human being. You must stay in Nanzhen Fuyamen honestly and don't do any inappropriate behavior again." .If you can pass the test this time, it can only be said to be your luck. And I can only tolerate your mistake this time, for the sake of your sister. If you do anything inappropriate again, others will not kill you. I will kill you myself too."
Shen Liang hurriedly kowtowed and said: "Don't worry, sir, I will never dare to do this again. From now on, I will keep my tail between my legs and be a good man, and I will never make my own decisions again."
Mou Bin nodded and said in a deep voice: "I hope you will remember what you said and don't do something stupid again. Also, you made a big mistake and I must punish you. From today on, you are no longer a member of the Jinyi Guard Qianhu. Let's do it for one hundred households. After a while, I will transfer you out of Nanzhen Fusi and go to another thousand households. Zhang Yanling will serve as Nanzhen Fusi for one day, and you are not suitable to stay there. You are too stupid, and you will die sooner or later. It’s in his hand.”
Shen Liang's face turned pale and he was speechless for a long time. Thousand households were reduced to a hundred. He had worked hard for so many years, but he had not made any progress, but had taken a big step back. Originally, the position of the Zhenfu Division was within reach, but now But it’s still far away.
What's more important is that this demotion is by no means a superficial downgrade. It means that Mou Bin has lost trust in himself. This time he got into a big trouble and messed up. Although he saved himself, but that It was also out of the last bit of nepotism. Today he scolded himself countless times like "idiot" and "idiot", but that was his sincerity. In his heart, he was an idiot. He no longer believed in his own abilities and would not I don't think much of myself anymore. Being demoted to a hundred households and transferred to another thousand households will give him a low-level position to hang around and wait for death. I will never think about climbing up. I will never become a member of the Jinyiwei Yamen. He is now a central figure. His future is over.
But at this moment, Shen Liang did not dare to show any dissatisfaction. It was a great blessing that he could survive today.
"I despise my duty and obey my orders! I despise my duty and resign!" Shen Liang kowtowed.
"Go away!" Mou Bin waved his hand, as if to shoo away a nasty fly.
…
In the afternoon on the sixth day of May, Zhang Yanling welcomed Mou Bin in the front hall.
Mou Bin smiled broadly and seemed to be in a good mood. After sitting down, he went straight to the topic.
"Master Marquis, I am here today to inform you of the progress of the case. I have issued a military order to the emperor to investigate the case within five days. Today is the fifth day, so fortunately I have lived up to my command!"
"Oh? There is a result so soon? Commander Mou is really resolute and decisive, and he is like a god in solving cases. This matter is endless. I thought it would take at least a few months to find out. I admire it." Zhang Yanling said in surprise. .
"The Marquis is joking, why is he so quick and decisive in solving the case? When the Marquis is attacked, who does not pay attention to it, the emperor, the government and the public? The Marquis is a member of my Jinyiwei Yamen, why am I dragging my feet and not doing my best to investigate and deal with it?" Mou Bin said.
"That's right. The impact of this incident is too bad. It really needs to be investigated as soon as possible. But I don't know what the outcome will be? Who wants to kill me, Zhang Yanling? What grudges do you have against me? Haha, you hate me so much that you want to kill me." Zhang Yanling said in front of Zhang Yanling. asked with a sneer.
Mou Bin nodded, reached out and took out a dossier from his arms, handed it to Zhang Yanling and said: "Master Hou, let's take a look at the summary of the case and relevant evidence first. If you have any questions later, I will explain it to you in detail."
