Chapter 613: The Great Sin of Punishing the Nine Clan
When Tang Shijin came over in the morning, Yan Baiwei had already left.
Tang Shijin brought a food box over and said with a smile: "You haven't had breakfast yet, I brought it for you."
She handed the food box to him, then sat down to read the confession. She felt happy as she read it. She smiled and said, "Not bad, Ling'er is here."
When Qi Yaoling came over, Tang Shijin said: "Copy a usable copy and ask him to mark it."
Qi Yaoling came over and copied a copy. Tang Shijin handed the old paper to Jiang Bi'an: "Keep it, it may be useful in the future."
Jiang Bi'an ate the beef soup dumplings and nodded calmly.
Tang Shijin took the confession and left, and by the way told Yu Zhifei to tell Zhao Shouzhuo about this.
It was touching how things went smoothly.
Tang Shijin wanted to ask Jiang Bian to ask for evidence before, but it was no use.
In fact, this matter cannot withstand scrutiny.
After all, Li Shangshu had been pushed out by Zhao Shouzhuo to the Ministry of Industry. How could he have so much energy to do so many things for these people?
You only need to check the people who handle it, and you will know who arranged the positions these people found. If you follow the clues, you will naturally get the real deal.
However, didn't Tang Shijin collude with Zhao Shouzhuo?
So I pretended to be confused and handed in the confession first.
At this moment, Li Shangshu could not sit still at all.
When he heard that Tang Shijin went to the Zhao Mansion, he couldn't sit still. He didn't expect that Zhao Shouzhuo was really brave! He dared to do this kind of thing to him! How stupid was he to collude with his nephew!?
Although they haven't come to arrest him yet, will Emperor Yuan Sheng still be polite to him?
So Li Shangshu immediately came to see Tang Shijin.
Li Shangshu looked kind and his attitude was extremely respectful. He said repeatedly: "Your Majesty, I heard that there is a case involving the official. I have come here to testify. Please feel free to ask whatever you want. Your Majesty, I will tell you everything I know."
"
Tang Shijin sighed: "Actually, I really don't want to get involved in your affairs. What does it have to do with me? There is no benefit at all if I take care of it. I didn't become an official by forming cliques."
Li Shangshu chatted and laughed.
In fact, what she said was right, she did not need to form a clique, but he did not dare to say, then you should not take over the general police factory! Didn't you ask for this!
He could only say with great knowledge: "It's my fault, but it's causing trouble for the prince."
Tang Shijin hummed politely and said, "Are you here for Zhao Zhongcheng's case?"
Li Shangshu said: "Yes."
"You don't need to take this case to heart," Tang Shijin said directly: "Whether it's Mr. Zhao or Mr. Li, Zhao Zhongcheng has no evidence in his hands. You can't convict with words, but you can't pull out the carrot and bring up the mud."
...You need to worry about other things."
Li Shangshu's eyelashes twitched: "I don't know what is going on? Please let me know for sure."
Tang Shijin pondered without answering.
Li Shangshu stood up and bowed respectfully: "Please, Your Majesty, show me a clear path. I will remember Your Majesty's great kindness for the rest of my life."
She still hesitated, and Li Shangshu repeatedly handed over his hand: "I have been an official for more than ten years, and I consider myself to be dedicated to my duties. I just ask the prince to give me a hand... The prince is in the lower realm of the stars and is kind to others. How can I bear to suffer the consequences of my ignorance...
…Then Zhao Shouzhuo is so arrogant and allows women to hurt others, so why should the prince be subject to his control..."
Tang Shijin finally sighed and slowly uttered two words: "Zhezhou."
Li Shangshu's expression suddenly changed.
He lifted his robe and gave a great gift: "Thank you, Your Majesty. I will definitely remember Your Majesty's affection. I will take my leave now."
Tang Shijin said slowly: "Don't see blood, don't involve innocent people."
Li Shangshu was stunned again, and then said: "Yes."
He cupped his hands and stepped back until he reached the door, then turned around and walked away quickly.
As soon as he left, Tang Shijin put away his lazy expression and pondered slightly.
She intellectually agrees that some things require sacrifice, but cannot accept it emotionally.
It was like the little hustler who seduced Zhuang Zhilan was killed by Kong Yulin. She kept asking people to light the lantern, but even if it was lit, she still felt uncomfortable.
But she said it clearly, Li Shangshu should not have the courage to knowingly commit the crime.
Why did she mention Zhezhou?
This is actually news from Changmu Feierlou.
Li Shangshu once served as the governor of Zhezhou, which is where Shen the governor now sits.
During his tenure, something happened.
A wealthy businessman named Liu had only one son from three generations of his family. As a result, he fell ill and died. In July 7th, a strange thing happened.
In a house not far from them, the son died and woke up again. But when he woke up, he said, "I am not from your family, I am Liu Zicheng from Luwei Lane, Qiantang." Then all his illnesses disappeared. When I was about to go home, I started to make a fuss.
Then this man returned to Liu's house and knew everything he asked, including some private things. Some of the little moves were the same, and the handwriting style was all the same. Even the son who was under two years old actually asked his father to hug him when he saw him. hug.
It is said that babies under three years old can see different things. So a few days later, the Liu family was finally convinced that their son had returned to life through a corpse. They were overjoyed and even became relatives with that family.
When Wu Buzheng found out about this, Tang Shijin was really speechless.
She wanted to know if in later generations when Pu Songling opened a teahouse, there were people from Jiangnan who exchanged this story for tea.
Even if she is nothing, she doesn't believe in resurrecting the dead.
It is estimated that this person knows that person’s wife, so he knows so many things, and that’s why his son knows him. In this way, he has wealth, a wife, and a son. Maybe they are still relatives. This liar has become rich. What!
But in short, the incident was widely spread at that time.
How did you get involved with Li Shangshu?
When the fake Liu Zicheng was taking the imperial examination, he won the title of Chief of Cases in the imperial examination, handled the banquet well, and had good literary talent. Li Shangshu took a fancy to him and wanted to recruit him as his son-in-law.
But once I inquired about it, I found out these things.
He half-believed in the idea of reviving a dead body, so he gave up the idea. However, he felt that this man was smart and talented, and would definitely make great achievements in the future, so he accepted him as his disciple.
During the three years that Li Shangshu had been the governor, there had been close contact between masters and apprentices. The Liu family was very wealthy, and they often helped him with money and things when they came and went. He even helped buy birthday gifts for the Wanshou Festival for two years in a row.
However, under the rule of Emperor Yuan Sheng, corruption was rampant. During the festival, officials at all levels rushed to send gifts to the palace, but there was no way to get them to Emperor Yuan Sheng.
Then something happened.
An official from the inner-city yamen fell ill with a strange disease. He started shouting like crazy... Afterwards, someone revealed a letter to Li Shangshu, saying that someone had tampered with his birthday gift and put medicinal powder in it. , can make people manic.
Because stealing a birthday gift is also a serious crime, it was not exposed in the end.
Li Shangshu was frightened when he heard this.
The officiating gift he gave was a nine-turn longevity peach, which was carved from jade and could be turned on each side, showing auspicious scenes. Liu Zicheng helped buy it.
To tamper with this thing is not to say that there is no chance, but why tamper with his gift? If he is found dead, that person will not be able to eat and walk around!
The more Li Shangshu thought about it, the more wrong he became, so he quietly asked someone to check on the fake Liu Zicheng. The result was shocking: he was actually a Tatar spy.
Nowadays, Tibet and the rest of the world have long been returned to our dynasty, and are called Duogan. They are currently guarded by the emperor's uncle, Prince Jing. Although the Tatar Kingdom in the north also claimed vassalage and paid tribute early on, in fact, it has never stopped provoking all kinds of provocations.
, what should I say, the international situation is tense.
Therefore, the Tatar issue is particularly sensitive.
What's more, Li Shangshu not only accepted Tatar spies as his apprentices, but also paid tribute with Tatar gifts!
This is a birthday gift! What if it hadn’t been intercepted by the inner government office? Wouldn’t it have ended up in the hands of the emperor?
The two families have been in close contact for two years. Who can prove that he was not involved? This is a serious crime against the Nine Clan!
Li Shangshu was so frightened that he found an opportunity and made an accident. The fake Liu Zicheng and his wife died.
It has been over ten years since this happened, and Li Shangshu had almost forgotten about it. When Tang Shijin suddenly mentioned it, his hands and feet were so frightened that his hands and feet went cold.
