"I found it," Li Chun replied: "Xiao Weizi said that he was furious at the time, but then the thunder and rain subsided, and he was just asked to write a report."
"Oh?" Ji Gang said with some surprise: "Isn't this kid going to make a fuss about it?" Just as Wang Xian expected, Jie Jin's death was the result of Ji Gang digging a hole for Wang Xian. For an important minister like Xie Jin, even if he is
Ji Gang didn't dare to let him die easily. He must have gotten a hint from the emperor...
Zhu Liuye guessed right. It was the time before that when the emperor looked through the list of prisoners in the imperial prison and saw Xie Jin's name. Zhu Di said in a daze: "Where is Jin You?" Recalling that this man has been in the imperial prison for five years.
Okay... The name Jie Jin means a lot to the emperor. It represents the "Yongle Dadian" that symbolized the pinnacle of the Yongle Dynasty's cultural governance. It represents the emperor's determination to finally make Zhu Zhanji the prince. It represents the suspicion between father and son between the emperor and his ministers.
At that time, the emperor was stunned for a long time while drinking tea. The afternoon sun shone through the window into the imperial study, and golden dust was flying, just like the emperor's thoughts. After a long silence, the emperor didn't say anything more, and then opened the door.
On to the next page.
This matter seemed to have passed, but after Ji Gang returned, he repeatedly thought about the emperor's intentions. He was the emperor's vicious dog. There were many things that were inconvenient for the emperor to say or even do, so he would do them silently.
He also carried the bad reputation... That's why now he is so resentful of the emperor's action of adding sand to Jin Yiwei. But at that time, he was still carefully understanding the holy meaning.
At that time, Zhuang Jing analyzed for him that the emperor's words could be understood in two completely opposite ways. One was like, "Ping Bao'er is still here?", which meant that Xie Jin lived too long. The other was that the emperor felt that Xie Jin lived too long.
You have been in jail long enough and you can be released. If you are in the latter case, you can just wait for the imperial decree. If you are in the former case, you have to do it secretly as before.
After Zhuang and his son said this, Ji Gang was no longer in a hurry. He would just wait and wait for a year and a half. If there is no imperial edict to release Jie Jin, he would be killed and brought down. Anyway, he also hates people named Jie. But
Unexpectedly, His Highness the King of Han was so powerful that he found out about this conversation between the king and his ministers and strongly demanded that Ji Gang kill Xie Jin.
When it comes to the courtiers His Royal Highness the King of Han hates the most, Wang Xian is not ranked first, because the number one must be Xie Jin. The emperor really wanted to make him the prince, but it was Xie Jin who composed poems and talked about Zen with all his strength.
Jishu got him into trouble, and later spoke ill of him several times, making His Highness the King of Han hate him to the bone. Although in the end, the King of Han still seized the opportunity, sued him severely in front of the emperor, and sent him to the imperial edict.
Prison, but as long as Jie Jin is alive, the hatred of the King of Han will not disappear...
At that time, Ji Gang was still hesitant and wanted to put it off for a while. Who knew that after the New Year, something like Wang Xian's command to suppress the Fusi would happen, which made Governor Ji lose his composure. He decided to kill Xie Jin and ask for help.
The king of Han sold well, dug a hole for Wang Xian, and relieved his hatred a little. Ji Gang was not worried about the emperor's thoughts, because since Zhu Di said such words, there was murderous intention hidden in his words, and the people below would not understand it.
Miscalculate.
So a few days ago, he ordered someone to set up a banquet for Xie Jin in prison. The dignified supreme commander of the Jinyi Guards actually invited a prisoner to have a drink. If it weren't for the old, then there were only two possibilities. One was that this person wanted to be released.
After leaving the official position and being reinstated, the other is that the prisoner is going to see the King of Hell. Full of doubts, this talented and world-famous scholar wanted to ask Ji Gang for clarification. However, the banquet was served, but Ji Gang did not come.
, this made Xie Jin's heart suddenly freeze. It was obviously the last possibility...
In the cell, Bachelor Xie couldn't eat in front of a table full of delicacies that he had not seen for a long time. He just kept drinking and soon became drunk. In his dream, he returned to those glorious moments, when he
Guan Bo, famous all over the world, drinking and having wealth, getting everything he wants... Jing Jin was already drunk, and the Jinyi warriors who had been waiting outside opened the cell door, dragged Xie Jin out, and threw him into the snow...
It was the first month of the lunar month, and it was midnight. It was freezing and snowy outside. Under the anesthesia of strong alcohol, this scholar who was astonishingly talented but could not cultivate his moral integrity completed the last journey of his life without pain...
Ji Gang knew that if Wang Xian wanted to make a fuss about Jie Jin's case, it would definitely arouse the emperor's disgust. The reason why Ji Gang can't be tough on Wang Xian now is simply because the emperor protects him. Once Wang Xian loses his favor, Ji Gang will
Even if I try to offend that old monk who doesn't care about worldly affairs, I will also kill Wang Xianyu.
If Wang Xian kept it secret and didn't report it, then Jie Jin's death would be blamed on him. This means that no matter whether you go east or west, whatever you do is wrong. Who would have thought that Wang Xian seemed to smell the danger?
They planned to handle this case in a low-key manner. Although this would still make the emperor uncomfortable, it was already the least troublesome way to deal with it. This made Ji Gang and Zhuang Jing have to admit that the boy named Wang did have two skills.
"Let's see how he fills this big hole this time." However, Ji Gang was still confident about the Che Alley murder case.
"He can't fill it up, so he can only bury himself in it." Master Zhuang also laughed,
"The ancestors are wise, Master Zhuang is wise." Li Chun also laughed.
"Ahem." Wang Xian coughed twice in displeasure, and finally called Li Chun back from his distraction. He chuckled sinisterly and said: "The talisman has also been invited, and the gods have also been invited. Now you can speak freely, right?
?”
"I heard yesterday that your Excellency sealed the imperial edict prison and locked up the archives." In this case, Li Chun was no longer polite to him. "I wonder what your Majesty wants?"
Wang Xian said calmly: "Reviewing files and interrogating prisoners are all routine tasks when I first take office.
"Why are we excluded?" Li Chun asked.
Seeing that he was much tougher than yesterday, Wang Xian knew that someone was cheering him up. He sneered and said, "Why? Touch your chest and ask, do you dare to tell your conscience that you don't know?" He glanced around.
Everyone said in a deep voice: "The purpose of setting up punishments to educate the people is to punish the evil and promote the good, and to appease the people. It makes the good people have a trust in their livelihood, and the evil and thieves have nothing to do.
This is the purpose. However, in the important place of the capital, the emperor ordered the prisoners to be imprisoned. There are so many shady stories and unjust prisons. It is really a great shame for Fusi in Beizhen. I have to investigate to the end. Once it is found out, I will punish him severely." After saying this, he sank his face.
, slapped the gavel hard and shouted sternly: "Bring it in"
Outside, Shuai Hui led the guards to bring a box in, opened it and saw that it was filled with files.
Wang Xian glanced at the box and said coldly: "Go and look for it to see if there is any case that you can handle. If you find it, take it and stand back..."
After Wang Xian finished speaking, he looked at the military attachés coldly. The military attaches had no choice but to step forward and take out the files from the box. The archives management of the Ming Dynasty was very complete. All the files had sutras written in black and white on the leather.
The name of the person in charge. So after a while, a box full of files was taken away by all the military attachés. Except for those who had no right to interrogate, those who had the right to interrogate had more than a dozen copies in their hands.
There were three or five files, and Wang Xian peeked at Wang Xian with a pale complexion.
"From today on, you don't need to go back to the mansion. You will take off your clothes and replenish your clothes. You will be doing errands in the Yamen for the time being. When you have clearly explained the cases in hand, you will go home again." Wang Xian said with a half-smile but not a smile: "But please don't worry, I will
I am very tolerant and will not mistreat you, and I will also accompany you. Let's investigate the case clearly and clear everyone's name." He paused and said: "After all, they are all old cases, so you can take them first.
Go back and have some time to reminisce. If anyone thinks clearly, come to me. I'm waiting for you." After saying that, he told Zhou Yong: "Take your lords to a private room to meditate. Don't disturb your lords."
"Yes." Zhou Yong responded, stretched out his hand towards the military attachés and said, "My lords, please come."
All the military attachés looked at each other, their personal freedom was restricted now. However, Wang Xian said it politely, and they did not dare to offend this evil spirit, so they had no choice but to follow him. Even Li Chun was no exception.
Wang Xian then remembered Chen Qianhu next to him and asked with a smile: "Commissioner Chen, do you think it's okay?"
"No, no." Chen Qianhu hurriedly shook his head and said. The purpose of his coming was to prevent Wang Xian from torturing his subordinates. Now it doesn't even count as house arrest, so of course he would be fine.
Taking advantage of this time, Wang Xian had time to eat breakfast. The breakfast was stewed Yusi that Shuaihui bought from a shop outside. The so-called Yusi is to cut tofu into thin strips, add shredded ginger, soy sauce, and heavy soup.
Stewed, seasoned with finely ground sesame oil, and added with some chopped young ginger, it tastes great. Served with two crispy sesame cakes and a bowl of dry shredded silk, the fatigue of the night will be wiped away, and the whole person will feel refreshed.
.Wang Xian nodded repeatedly after eating and said: "You must have this stewed Yusi, and you must eat it often."
"This is not easy," Shuai Hui said with a smile: "It only costs five taels of silver for a year."
"No matter how high or low you are, I don't like to eat delicacies from the mountains and the sea." Wang Xian picked up the white handkerchief and wiped his mouth. Seeing that Shuai Hui was hesitant to speak, "If you have something to say, say it quickly, and if you fart, just let it go."
"Oh, I'll tell you now." Shuai Hui hesitated and said, "When I went to buy breakfast just now, I saw a woman kneeling outside the gate." Yamen are strict places, and there is usually a gate outside.
, to prevent idlers from gathering at the yamen entrance.
"Then what?" Wang Xian frowned.
"Then she held up a piece of white cloth in her hand," Shuai Hui whispered, "Write this big word on it."
"What word?" Wang Xian asked.
"Injustice..." Shuai Hui's voice became even lower.
"..." Wang Xian frowned even more tightly.
"Has that woman been complaining about injustice all this time?" Wu Wei put down his bowl and chopsticks and asked.
"I asked." Shuai Hui was much more experienced than before, "They said it was the first time they met."
"Go and ask what's going on." Wang Xian frowned and said, "If you have a complaint, please keep it. I didn't ask someone to write one on her behalf."
