Chapter 170: Eventful
It seems that it is not unreasonable for the second generation of Great Qin to die in his previous life, Great Qin is facing many problems, just like a seemingly majestic tree, with a high-spirited and straight appearance, but moths have begun to gnaw at the heart of the tree.
Since the unification of the Six Kingdoms, although the soldiers of the Qin army are all bloody veterans, they have been reduced from the prime of life to middle age, and the generals are more veterans. The laws are strict, and the construction is carried out in a big way, and it seems that these are the straws that are pressed on the camel of Daqin. Fortunately, Li Chen came, and although a series of reforms made Wang Jian tired and sick, and almost exhausted the old man, the result was to renew the life of Daqin after all.
Although the identities of Ying Shu and Nie Xiaohua are noble, their marriage is extremely low-key. Although the First Emperor had entered Nie Xiaohua's identity into the family tree, she still didn't seem to be accepted by the people of the Ying clan. And Win Shu needless to say, she has always been at odds with Win people.
"Master Hou, look." Zhao Que hurriedly handed the secret letter in his hand to Li Chen, and it seemed that something big had happened.
"It's all married people, and they're still so frizzy." Li Chen admonished his "uncle" and brother.
"Big trouble?" Zhao Que sighed.
"Three hundred miles west of Xianyang City, there was a collapse accident in the Dongshan Tunnel. Three hundred migrant workers were trapped in the culvert, and none of them survived. The next day, a plague broke out in Qingshan Village, and more than 700 people in the village did not survive. ”
The news on the secret letter was like a thunderbolt on Li Chen's body on a sunny day. Li Chen has already guessed what happened, and he is really a dog. How lawless are these officials, these are all the people of Great Qin.
"Have you checked it out?" Li Chen suppressed the anger in his heart.
"The Ministry of Industry has already handed over the case, and this is the file." Chen Ping handed the file in his hand to Li Chen, his fingers trembling slightly.
If I heard that Chen Ping was in charge today, he would be in charge of the intelligence work.
As Li Chen expected, the file of the Ministry of Industry was full of exculpatory words: "The continuous rainy days caused the mountain to seep and collapse, and the Ministry of Industry sent people to rescue as soon as possible." And the plague in the village was induced because of the corpses. ”
This seemingly reasonable explanation is in fact full of loopholes. Not to mention the officials of the Criminal Department, even the officials who have handled the case a little bit know that things will not be so simple.
"Smack."
"That's not what I'm looking at." Li Chen smashed the file in his hand on Chen Ping's face, Chen Ping seemed to be like the high-profile version of Jia Xu Jia Wenhe in the Three Kingdoms, this kind of person is smart and talented, but he is also very good at protecting himself. What he gave Li Chen was the file submitted by the Ministry of Industry to the Criminal Department, not the news that Tiantian had heard. The meaning here is to tell Li Chenmo to dig deeper, and it is the best choice to close the coffin.
"Master Hou, this time is not black and white, some things really can't be checked." Chen Ping let the file smash on his face, and persuaded him bitterly.
"Master Hou, Shu'er said that the harem is involved at this time, or forget it." Zhao Que also advised. At this time, it is no secret in the officialdom of Daqin, because it involves the favorite concubine and prince of the first emperor, the entire Daqin officialdom seems to have acquiesced to the statement of the Ministry of Industry. No one checked, or rather, no one dared to check.
"I don't want to ask a second time, say." Li Chen's angry voice remembered.
Li Chen has a very good temperament, whether it is Chen Ping or Zhao Que, he has never seen Li Chen really angry, at this time, Chen Ping no longer dares to hide it: "The businessman who contracted this section of the road often has a relationship with Gongzi, and it is said that he is the person with the surname of Gongzi Chang's mother." In order to catch up with the schedule, the contractor rushed to work on a rainy day, which triggered the accident. After the accident, due to the conflict between the villagers and the contractor, the next day the whole mountain village became a hell on earth. Presumably, the contractor must have been afraid that the villagers would make trouble, so they simply did nothing and poisoned all the villagers. Because the participation of the royal family was found, God didn't dare to investigate. ”
Li Chen also thought about the rest of the things, it must be after the contractor was poisoned, this matter involved the royal family, and the Ministry of Industry in order to help which prince to cover, it is best to attribute this matter to the plague.
"Thousands of lives before and after, this group of brutes."
"Zhao Que, follow me to the palace, today is to pierce the sky, and I will also bring this group of people to justice." Li Chen's eyes were red, like an angry lion.
"Master Hou, tiger poison does not eat children, this matter involves the prince, and Liji is His Majesty's most favored concubine. In this way, I am afraid that I will be tired of Your Majesty. Chen Ping was still persuading Li Chen, and he was indeed thinking about Li Chen.
"Chen Ping, you remember, you can only be an official before you can be a man. I don't have to be this Hou Ye, but I must be a person. Li Chen said word by word.
"Think about it, next time, you will still go back to your Pei County fortune telling." Li Chen patted Chen Ping's shoulder and said.
"Brother Chen, don't care, Master Hou is such a temperament, which is why we follow him with all our hearts." Zhao Que said to Chen Ping.
"Yes, Ping is wrong. It's just that if something happens to the Hou Ye, who can think about the people like this. Chen Ping said in a low voice.
"I will enter the palace with the Hou Ye, Brother Chen can rest assured for the time being." Zhao Que said that, and chased after Li Chen.
Soon, a set carriage drove out of Lijiazhuang and ran in the direction of the palace.
"Master Hou, Brother Chen is also thinking about you." In the carriage, Zhao Que was still persuading Li Chen.
"I know." Li Chen said.
Chen Ping is too sleek, Li Chen really doesn't want Chen Ping to become a double-edged sword like Jia Xu in the Three Kingdoms in his previous life. If such a person is left unchecked, he will definitely survive to the end, but it may affect many innocent people.
Maybe it's a difference in thinking, Li Chen can sacrifice a few people for the sake of the majority, but he definitely can't accept sacrificing the majority of ordinary people because of a few noble people. What is more hateful than chivalry's use of force to prohibit is knowing the law and breaking the law.
"Master Hou, the royal family directly involved in this matter is Gongzi Chang, and Gongzi Gao, Ziying, Imperial Uncle Xiong Qi, and Liji are all suspected of harboring. As for the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, there are countless people who cover up, those who do not report it, and those who turn a blind eye to it. Zhao Que babbled that these news were all told to him by Ying Shu. When it comes to the royal family, no one dares to go directly to investigate without the order of the first emperor.
The first emperor had a total of 23 sons and 10 daughters. Childe wins often seventeen sons, and sones win high is three sons. Win Chang and Win Gao are both born to Liji, although they are the same mother's compatriots, but Win Chang is a son of a gentleman who will only cause trouble, and Win Gao is different, this person is also considered to be a martial artist. As for Ziying, the third emperor of Qin, who served as the king of Qin for forty-six days in later generations, he is the nephew of the first emperor, and now he has the position of a squire in the Ministry of Industry.
"Win Xiong Qi, this old thing." Li Chen scolded. Every time he shields the children of the royal family who make mistakes, it is this old boy who takes the lead. It's really not okay to do anything, the first place in protecting the short.
It seems that God doesn't want Daqin to calm down, and there are waves of unsettled waves, which is eventful.
