Chapter 936: Intricate
As soon as Zhang Wenda fell asleep, he was woken up by the clerk of the Criminal Department, endured the headache, listened to the paperwork, and immediately threw away the single clothes draped on his back.
At the same time, he said urgently, "It's right to block the news, don't alarm others first, and find out what happened." β
The clerk nodded and said, "Yes, Lord Liao also means this, he has blocked the news, and is waiting for the Lord to go to the Yamen to call the shots." β
Zhang Wenda quickly put on his clothes and said, "Let's go." β
Zhang Wenda got into the carriage and hurried to the criminal department.
He has seen more of this than Liao Changyong. If the criminal department does not handle this case well, the cabinet may not be able to suppress it, and once the lawsuit reaches the front of the emperor, everything will get out of control.
Zhang Wenda knows the emperor in the Qianqing Palace very well, this is the most able to see the needle, and any thing he catches can become his handle to pressure the cabinet, and what he wants to do when the time comes, the cabinet can't talk back at all.
When Zhang Wenda went out, Liao Changyong also received reports one after another.
"My lord, there are indeed many people who saw it, the scene was quite big at that time, it was Zhu Yingyou, the sixth son of Chengguo Gong, and Xu Huazhi, the youngest son of Dingguo Gong, the two fought for that prostitute Liu Qing, Xu Huazhi personally pushed Liu Qing downstairs and died on the spot."
"A steward of the Dingguo Mansion came forward to let Qunfanglou shut up, and the old bustard and a few turtle princes have quietly watched it."
"We didn't dare to go in the Governor's Yuan, for fear of startling the snakes, but we found out from other places that it was Liang Chengyong, the deputy director of the Inspection Department of the Governor's Yuan, who was responsible for inspecting the area of Qunfang Building at that time."
"Liang Chengyong's wife and a concubine in the Dingguo Mansion are Jinlan sisters, and he may have deliberately suppressed them."
"However, it has only been half a day, and the fact that there is no movement on the side of the Governor's Yuan does not mean that Liang Chengyong has pressed the case, and if we act rashly, it may be true."
Liao Changyong listened to several reports, sat at the desk, and nodded, "Not bad." Although the human and material evidence has been conclusive, our criminal department cannot move yet, and if the Supervision Yuan reacts and says that it has been secretly investigated and is going through internal procedures, we can't do anything. After all, King Jing is an auxiliary minister of the cabinet, and if he is caught, the criminal department will not be able to please him! β
"What do you think, my lord?"
"Liu Qing's body is still placed with us, and her fiancΓ© Shen Bingwu is arguing endlessly, and he may not be able to hide it for long......"
"Whether our criminal department is at a disadvantage to the Upper Governor's Yuan, a bad lawsuit can reach the cabinet, or even the imperial front, we need to be cautious."
"The lower officials suggested that they should solve the case quickly and directly transfer the case to Dali Temple, so that the Governor's Yuan could not interfere!"
"Although this murder case is under the jurisdiction of our Criminal Department, but in the end it was caused by customs, and it makes sense for the Supervisory Council to insist on intervening, but the problem is that it also involves two national governments."
Liao Changyong listened to what his subordinates said to me, his brows were furrowed, and his expression was annoyed.
This matter is indeed complicated enough, involving a lot, and they are not ordinary people, so they need to be careful and careful.
For a long time, Liao Changyong's face was cold, and he said, "This matter is no longer a matter of the size of the case, you all shut up for me, if anyone leaks half a sentence, this official, Lord Shangshu, will never be spared!" β
"Yes!" A group of people said with awe-inspiring expressions.
Not long after, Zhang Wenda arrived at the yamen and recruited Liao Changyong into the class room.
After Liao Changyong finished speaking carefully, Zhang Wenda nodded and said, "You are right, this case has gone beyond the case itself and needs to be handled carefully." β
When Liao Changyong saw Zhang Wenda coming, his expression was much relaxed, and he pondered, "My lord, you say, do you know about this matter in the Dingguo Mansion and the Chengguo Mansion?" Does King Jing know? If they don't know, things may be easy to deal with, but if they do, I'm afraid they may not be able to do well. β
When it comes to two princes who are valued by the emperor very much, a prince who is high and powerful and has high hopes, it will not be 'good'!
Zhang Wenda's expression was as usual, and he muttered: "Whether they know it or not, the Criminal Department must keep it secret, the actions must be concealed, be careful, not give people a handle, and the case must be sorted out, all the evidence, especially the human witnesses, must be in their hands, and no mistakes can be made!" β
Liao Changyong immediately understood what Zhang Wenda meant, so that no matter how the incident developed, their criminal department could take the initiative.
"Yes."
Liao Changyong raised his hand, immediately stepped forward, and said in a low voice: "My lord, if you go to the cabinet today and meet King Jing, you might as well test it." β
Zhang Wenda glanced at him, and was about to speak, when there was an urgent knock on the door.
Zhang Wenda frowned slightly, and said, "Come in." β
The people from the arrest department came in quickly, and said urgently, "My lord, we just got the news, Lord Cao Wenzhao was ordered to form a special army, and the honorable ministers of the capital have sent their children in, Zhu Yingyou, Xu Huazhi are all on the list, and they will enter the royal military courtyard early tomorrow morning at the latest!" β
"What did you say?" Liao Changyong's face changed greatly.
The Royal Military Academy is very special, it has always implemented strict closed management, and ordinary people cannot enter and exit at will, even cabinet ministers must hold the emperor's handwritten letter to enter. Zhu Yingyou, Xu Huazhi If they enter the military academy, their criminal department will be gone.
When the time comes, the trouble will fall on the head of the criminal department!
Zhang Wenda also realized that the matter was serious, if these two people ran away, and the two princes and one prince fell in, the cabinet might not be happy, let alone their criminal department.
Liao Changyong's face changed for a while, and he turned his head to Zhang Wenda and said, "My lord, you can't take your time, arrest someone, and then detain Xu Hua directly." β
How simple is it to detain the son of a prince, and not long after the 'demotion case', the imperial court needs to appease these noble ministers.
Zhang Wenda pondered for a while, shook his head and said, "You can't deduct it, in this way, you personally take the corpses of Shen Bingwu and Liu Qing, and transfer all the evidence to the Governor's Yuan, remember, pretend that you don't know anything, make the movement loud, let the nearby yamen watch, and when I go to the cabinet later, I will talk to King Jing in passing and see his reaction." β
Liao Changyong looked at Zhang Wenda, his eyes lit up, and said, "My lord, this method is good, see if King Jing is involved in the case, if not, this matter is easier to handle." β
The noble ministers and the clan have always been close, especially recently, their relationship has become a little closer, if it is said that King Jing is covering up or deliberately covering up, it is completely reasonable.
"Regardless of whether King Jing is involved or not, I want to push this matter out, even if it is pushed to the cabinet, it can't be smashed in the hands of our criminal department." Zhang asked.
Liao Changyong immediately nodded and said in deep agreement: "What the lord said is that as soon as the morning dawns, the lower officials will send everything over, with great fanfare!" β
Zhang Wenda looked indifferent, and said after a while: "The emperor is going to have a banquet for Zhang Guogong in the palace today, King Jing will deal with it in a low-key manner regardless of whether he participates or not, you pay attention to Dali Temple, the two people's mansions, if they have any changes, even if I am in the cabinet, I have to find a way to tell me as soon as possible!" β
"Yes, don't worry!" Liao Changyong knew that the matter was not trivial, and said in a deep voice.
Zhang Wenda was a little uneasy in his heart, stood up and said, "Go ahead, be sharp, the cabinet is Sun Baigu on duty today, I'll go show some mouth." β
"Xiaguan will go." Liao Changyong said, and turned around to make arrangements.
Zhang Wenda watched him leave, changed into court clothes, and prepared to enter the palace.
The sky gradually brightened, and there were more and more officials coming and going on both sides of the Daming Gate, and it was gradually lively.
Liao Changyong and Shen Bingwu instructed a lot of words, and when they saw the Governor's Yuan open the door, when it was the most lively, they said to Shen Bingwu: "This official will accompany you in person, remember, don't say that the officials of the Governorate protect each other, we are here to report the case, the human and material evidence is complete, and everyone is watching!" β
"The villain understands!"
Shen Bingwu gritted his teeth, looked at the Governor's Yuan with some hatred, held the transfer documents of the Criminal Department in his hand, pushed Liu Qing's corpse, and went straight to the Governor's Yuan.
Liao Changyong took a few people, wearing official uniforms, and followed behind Shen Bingwu.
"Please ask His Royal Highness King Jing to be the master of the villain, and kill people to pay for their lives, it is justified!"
Shen Bingwu knelt in front of the gate of the Governor's House and shouted loudly.
This is the gathering place of many yamen, and it is very lively and lively, and when he shouted like this, everyone immediately looked over.
