The next day, she sent people to send congratulatory gifts to the second princess, and went to Ci'en Palace to pay her respects. Empress Dowager Lan did not rush Li Yuhua. Anyone with a little bit of brains knew that the birth of a child really depends on God's will, and Empress Dowager Lan was not the same.
Cheng Chong was pregnant with a dragon fetus. The important thing is that Queen Mother Lan is not such a narrow-minded person. Seeing Li Yuhua regain her energy and there is a little more sweetness between her brows, she knows that the young couple have a good relationship.
They are a young couple, sweet and sweet, and it is only a matter of time before they have a baby.
Li Yuhua took a long time to talk to Nanny Sun about Su Shuang, "Last time I heard that the emperor's grandmother specially selected Su Shuang and Suxue to serve the third brother. It is supposed to be a gift from the elders, so I shouldn't say that. But Nanny
I also saw it, Su Shuang, Zhong Zhi was a little blind. As soon as the third brother came back, before he entered the house, she still dragged him and muttered, "I was talking to the third brother in the house, but she didn't say hello."
Come in. Is she interested in third brother?"
"In the past, I didn't think she was a confused person. I'll give her a few words first to see how she behaves." Grandma Sun also knew what happened yesterday. Li Yuhua and the accompanying maid Yunyan Yunque didn't dare to say or do anything. Suxue
To be honest, Su Shuang is just too obvious.
Li Yuhua also meant the same thing, "Mom, let's talk about her. She served Third Brother for a while, and I thought I would never treat them badly in the future. But she looks like this. Even if I want to support her, I don't know how to support her."
"
Grandma Sun nodded repeatedly, and Li Yuhua added, "Tell her directly, I will never give Third Brother a child."
Grandma Sun's head that was nodding down suddenly stopped and she looked at Li Yuhua in shock. Li Yuhua shook the tea in her hand and said easily, "See what I do? This is what the third brother meant."
"Your Highness and your Majesty are so affectionate, and I am so happy to see you." Aunt Sun said with a smile. Even though Li Yuhua was not pregnant yet, she really fell in love with His Highness the Third Highness. They got married as a couple, not to mention that she was a concubine in person, but secretly.
There was no one in the whole room. At first, when Li Yuhua was menstruating, it was not like no one had an idea. But when the Third Prince came home, he ran to the Third Princess and even moved the study room over. The two of them were intimate.
You can't even insert a needle into it, let alone a maid with a big heart.
Li Yuhua ate tea and explained a few words to Grandma Sun in detail. She was doing this for Sushuang's own good, and she couldn't go after her third brother just because she looked more handsome. The same was true for Sushuang.
She has a good face but a very stupid brain. Sushuang is already twenty-three years old. If the third brother had been interested, he would have been with her long ago. He has not been with her yet, because he just doesn't have the intention.
After settling Su Shuang's matter, Li Yuhua continued to discuss Zhang Luo Zhifang's matters with Uncle Jiu.
Du Changshi led his men to review the Ministry of Punishment's files on the Nanyi military ration case. He could take a break at noon. Cheng Shilang came over to have lunch with Du Changshi. When he saw Du Changshi's lunch box, he couldn't help laughing and said, "I
Seeing your food box, Xiao Du, I want to switch jobs with you."
"You are teasing me again." Du Changshi helped Minister Cheng sit down, "It's all a gift from the empress."
Cheng Shilang came over with rice, and they both ate it together. Cheng Shilang took a piece of cold melon without ceremony, took two bites and said, "This cold melon is good, you can eat it too." He turned around and handed a piece to Du Changshi.
Du Changshi took it with a smile.
Cheng Shilang is already over 40 years old. According to him, his son is only a few years younger than Du Changshi. Regardless of his age or official experience, Cheng Shilang is a real senior.
What's even more rare is that Cheng Shilang doesn't have the airs of a senior official in the officialdom. He has always been casual, even when eating and talking. Cheng Shilang asked Du Changshi, "I have to ask Xiao Du about something, and I don't know what kind of charter your highness is. Xiao Du
You are a close friend of His Highness, so if you pick up what you can say and say it, it will give me a better idea."
Before Emperor Mu Xuan handed over the Nanyi military ration case to Mu Anzhi, Cheng Shilang had been presiding over the interrogations of the Ministry of Punishments.
Now Du Changshi was reviewing the files, but Cheng Shilang had not received Mu Anzhi's order, so he came to find Du Changshi to inquire. Du Changshi gave Cheng Shilang a bowl of chicken soup, "According to your Majesty, the Criminal Department is currently short of manpower.
Moreover, this is a serious case that will be tried by the three divisions, and His Highness wants to recruit people from the three divisions to try the case together."
Cheng Shilang was a little confused, "Select people from the Third Division to interrogate together?"
"Your Highness seems to mean so."
"This case has always been presided over by our Criminal Department, and the Dali Temple Yushitai is in charge of review and supervision. It is just a jury. Our Criminal Department has no one, why do we need to select people from them?"
Du Changshi was a little embarrassed, "I don't know about this."
Cheng Shilang smiled and said, "Come and eat some vegetables. You are not tired of food, so you should also try the food of our Criminal Department."
After lunch, Cheng Shilang made a special trip to the cabinet, and Du Changshi told Mu Anzhi exactly what Cheng Shilang had inquired about. Mu Anzhi was about to think about the morning meeting, when His Majesty appointed the post of Tongzhou Grain Transport Envoy.
After hearing Du Changshi's report on the He family's affairs, Mu Anzhi put down the pen in his hand and said, "I understand."
Du Changshi said, "I think Mr. Cheng wants to leave the case to the Ministry of Justice for trial, and doesn't want those two families to get involved."
"Let's see what Li Shangshu means."
Mu Anzhi was responsible for this. After he arrived at the Ministry of Punishment, he did not care about other matters except for the trial of cases. Therefore, it is wrong to say that he is in charge of the Ministry of Punishment. Today, the person in charge of the Ministry of Punishment is still Li Shangshu.
Mu Anzhi has always had a reputation for being an iron-handed judge of cases. In fact, since he was able to become famous in just a few months in the Ministry of Punishment, and with the support of people like Du Hua and Zheng Xu, he is naturally very good.
In the yamen, do not fight for profit.
Regarding the facts of the case, no name will be disputed.
When he tried every case, who put in as much effort and dedication as possible, Mu Anzhi always listed the names of his subordinates in the book according to their merits. He did not seek fame for himself.
Although he is now in the Ministry of Punishment, he is in charge of the Ministry of Punishment in name. In fact, since he came to the Ministry of Punishment, Mu Anzhi is only in charge of trial cases. Therefore, in the Fourth Department of the Ministry of Punishment, he is only in charge of the Criminal Department, and in the Department of Punishment, he is only in charge of trial cases. As for the Punishment Department, he is only in charge of trial cases.
Mu Anzhi doesn't care about other matters, and Li Shangshu is free to make the decision.
Even for this Nanyi military ration case, he didn't have enough manpower, so he wouldn't try to sideline the Criminal Department and simply recruit manpower from the Third Division.
He just wanted to tell Li Shangshu that he had no plans for the power of the Ministry of Punishment.
The next day, the morning session ended.
The early morning sun shines through the thin morning breeze and shines on people. Mu Anzhi goes out alone. He has no friendship with the officials in the court. In the past, Dr. Zheng would go with him. Since Mr. Zheng went to Shandong on business, Mu Anzhi
He returned to being alone again.
Today was different from the past. Li Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment took a few steps to catch up with Mu Anzhi. Knowing that Mu Anzhi was unpredictable, Li Shangshu did not dare to greet him and said directly, "Your Highness, Your Majesty has ordered His Highness to take charge of the Nanyi military rations case. Your Highness
When I have time, I would like to report the case in detail to His Highness."
"Go to the Yamen and talk."
In this way, the two of them boarded the car separately and went to the Ministry of Punishment together.
The Ministry of Punishment was on Taiping Street outside the imperial city, and it didn't take long to arrive. Mu An's carriage went first, followed by Li Shangshu, and Du Changshi and Hua Changshi were not qualified to attend court early, so they all came directly to the Ministry of Punishment according to the time.
Hua Changshi has been busy with the Yan family case. Du Changshi also arrived to see Li Shangshu. After giving a courtesy to Mu Anzhi, he bowed his hand to Li Shangshu as a gift. He thought that Li Shangshu must have something to discuss with His Highness, otherwise he should go to the cabinet at this time.
, Du Changshi then retreated first.
Li Shangshu held the tea bowl and spoke without any idle words, "Your Highness has always been wise, but the old minister has been thinking too much. I have always wanted to tell His Highness about the Nanyi military ration case. I also ask Your Highness to forgive the old minister for being noisy."
"Shang Shu is so humble. I originally wanted to find a time to ask you about the current regulations of this case."
"The case of Nanyi military rations was originally written by the Marquis of Nan'an. It was discovered that the military ration convoy was secretly carrying jade. Nanyi does not produce jade, but Dali, which is adjacent to Nanyi, is a place that produces beautiful jade. The Marquis of Nan'an did not dare to underestimate this matter.
, so he submitted the report secretly, and his Majesty ordered the Ministry of Punishment to cooperate with the Marquis of Nan'an in the investigation."
Mu An's eyebrows jumped rapidly. Dali is where the Zhennan Palace is located. Zhennan Palace is its own country. Although it is a vassal state, it is a formal vassal state. It seems that the internal situation is much more complicated than he imagined.
Li Shangshu continued, "The Nanyi forces are intertwined and complex, and it is difficult to conduct detailed inquiries in the Zhennan Palace. The jade case has not made much progress. However, it was discovered that there was reselling of military rations. These are all recorded in the files."
"I feel ashamed to say it, but the Zhou family case happened and the military ration plan made significant progress." Li Shangshu sighed with emotion.
"There is one thing. Since the military grain convoy was found to be illegally carrying jade, we should immediately investigate the grain dealer who transported the grain and grass. Why has it been delayed so far?"
Li Shangshu said, "At that time, the man who smuggled the jade was captured, but he fell ill and died on the road before reaching the imperial capital. Further clues have been cut off, and the investigation cannot be continued."
Li Shangshu also has a lot of things to say. His official position is not that he is afraid of the Marquis of Nan'an, but the Nanyi Army Food Case was first filed with the Marquis of Nan'an. If the Marquis of Nan'an had selfish motives, he would have dealt with it privately to avoid involving his family. It can be seen that at the beginning
The Marquis of Nan'an did not know that the Crown Prince was also involved. If Li Shangshu had such a big idea at the time, this matter must have nothing to do with the Marquis of Nan'an's house, and both the Zhou family, the military grain transporter, and the Niu family, the grain merchants, were very close to the Crown Prince of Nan'an.
It cannot be said that it was an oversight, but the case was actually not delayed, because the reselling of military rations was discovered, and the Niu family was about to be questioned. At this time, the Niu family was implicated in the Zhou family case, and was immediately imprisoned.
In this way, the three cases were rushed into one place, and Prince Nan'an was immediately sent to prison.
Li Shangshu asked, "I don't know what your Highness is going to do about the military rations case at the moment? Our Criminal Department was headed by Cheng Shilang when the case was being tried. We have most of the files here, and only a few are in Dali Temple. I guess they have people ready for His Highness to handle."
.”
Mu Anzhi took a sip of tea. He already knew Li Shangshu's intention, "In the past, the three divisions were separated, and the Ministry of Punishment tried the case and the Dali Temple reviewed the censorship. This rule is naturally good. However, I have my own habits when trying cases."
"Your Highness, please speak."
"I will allocate personnel from each of the three divisions to handle the military ration case."
"What about review and supervision?"
"The Dali Temple Oversight Office still makes the decision."
Li Shangshu suddenly smiled slyly, "Your Highness, you are from our Criminal Department and are in charge of the affairs of the Criminal Department. I have to say something selfish. Your Highness needs manpower. Our department is full of talents who specialize in investigating cases. I am not boasting.
The Supervisory Office of Dali Temple is considerate. Our Yamen has as many people as your Highness wants, so why do we need to look for them outside?"
"Is this good?" Mu Anzhi asked Li Shangshu again.
Li Shangshu gave a hundred and twenty guarantees, "Absolutely good. As long as the people in the Yamen are worthy of His Highness, even the old ministers will be willing to work for His Highness."
Mu Anzhi said seriously, "If it's related to the case, I'm afraid I'll have to ask you for advice."
"If your Highness has any questions, the veteran will tell you everything."
Now it seems that His Highness the Third Highness is indeed a person who is dedicated to doing things. As a dignified prince, His Highness would rather retreat and choose people from the Third Division rather than be disturbed by fighting for power.
The Third Highness is willing to retreat, which is the magnanimity of His Highness, but he is also not a narrow-minded person!
