On the way back to wait for the lawsuit, Jia Yue sat in the carriage and thought a lot.

Now it is clear that the emperor no longer trusts his boss Wang Tanzhi, otherwise he would never transfer Wang Tanzhi to the Western Regions, bypass Wang Tanzhi and let him, the Si Cheng, investigate.

Inform Wang Tanzhi of this news? Jia Yue shook his head, he didn't want to die, and he died under the emperor's holy decree, and his descendants would not be able to turn over within a few generations.

Besides, he Jia Yue is not Wang Tanzhi's confidant, although he is nominally Wang Tanzhi's subordinate, but he was personally transferred by the emperor to Wang Tanzhi, he was not Wang Tanzhi's person from the beginning, and the emperor may also completely hand over the entire waiting lawsuit to Wang Tanzhi, and there may be how many people in the waiting lawsuit are the eyes and ears of the emperor, if he passes the news to Wang Tanzhi, he is afraid that the emperor's will to kill him will come soon.

"What I have to do now is to draw a clear line with Wang Tanzhi, I can only gain more trust from the emperor by doing things more absolutely!"

The carriage stopped while waiting for the lawsuit, and Jia Yue had already made a decision when he stepped out of the carriage.

When the carriage left, Jia Yue walked into the waiting lawsuit, and the two soldiers at the door immediately straightened their bodies.

After entering the yamen of the waiting lawsuit, bypassing the shadow wall, the officials he met along the way all bowed to the side and greeted Jia Yue: "Si Cheng is early!" ”

Jia Yue kept nodding: "Everyone, morning!" ”

After passing through the layers of courtyards, Jia Yue came to the last courtyard, turned to the left and walked to the door of the secretary's office next to his Si Cheng's office and said: "Liu Zhanggu, this official has to deal with important matters, don't let anyone disturb this official, if there is an official document to be submitted in each room, let you come here first, if you want to report official business in person, let them come over in the afternoon!" ”

Liu Zhanggu is like an office director, except for Wang Tanzhi and Jia Yue, Liu Zhanggu is the only person in the entire lawsuit who knows its true function, and he is the one who covers for Wang Tanzhi and Jia Yue.

"Yes, Si Cheng!"

Jia Yue walked through the secretary's room and turned around and came to his office through the corridor on the left, and Wang Tanzhi's office on the right.

He closed the door, walked over to the bookshelf and reached out to remove a few books, revealing a wooden knob on the wall, he turned the knob and slowly moved it away from the wooden wall next to it, revealing a small door, a glimmer of light appeared inside the small door, he walked through the small door into the wall, and the outside wall quickly returned to its original state.

This is a staircase leading to the bottom, to the bottom of the stairs is a straight tunnel, the tunnel is very straight, one zhang high, five feet wide, each five zhang on the wall a lamp, the whole tunnel is lit.

After walking for about a hundred zhang, Jia Yue came to a small door, he knocked on the small door several times in a row according to the fixed frequency, and the small door was then opened, and inside the door were two armor soldiers bowing to him and clenching their fists: "Si Cheng!" ”

Behind this small door is a small underground room, in addition to the two armorers guarding the door, there are three armorers in the small room, there is a hole in the wall, which is used to fire arrows, in addition to the beds in the small room, there are also several large repeaters, each repeater can fire ten crossbow arrows in a row, anyone who tries to force their way into this passage will be shot into a sieve.

Jia Yue nodded, and after passing through the small room, he passed through a well-guarded corridor again, and people kept saluting him along the way, and everyone who greeted him was holding the case file, in a hurry, almost extremely busy.

The corridor through which Jia Yue passed was flanked by office rooms one after another, each brightly lit and filled with people working on case files and other official business.

After a while, he walked through several corridors to a huge patio, where the sun was shining down, and above the patio, dozens of grooves made of half thick bamboo pipes were connected, and small metal balls rolled down the grooves from all directions and converged on a large platform.

Around this large platform stood a dozen or so officials dressed in uniform small officials, the metal balls that landed on the platform were written with people's names and official positions, this indicates that the news recorded in the metal balls is related to this person, they first classify these metal balls, and then split them in half, and take out the scrolls tied with strings from them and stack them neatly, and someone has come to take them away.

Jia Yue ignored these people, he came to his office here, and happened to meet a person, this person saw that it was Jia Yue, and immediately saluted: "Si Cheng!" ”

Jia Yue saw this person, nodded and said: "Cen Gao, it just so happens that this official has something for you to do, you find out all the files that have been closely connected between the princes, the emperor's relatives, the ministers of the imperial court, ministers, military generals, and officials, as well as the local officials and all parties in the imperial court since May this year!" ”

Cen Gao was surprised: "Si Cheng, didn't Si Zheng read the relevant files a few days ago?" How ······ again"

Jia Yue's eyes widened: "If the official tells you to go, you will go, why is there so much nonsense?" ”

"Uh, yes, yes! It's just that even the files of the princes and the emperor's relatives have to be called out? ”

"Is it because the officer didn't make it clear, or are you deaf? Do you want to say it again? ”

Cen Gao hurriedly saluted: "No, no, isn't it okay if the official is wrong?" It's just that the files involving the prince, the emperor's relatives and ministers are all top secrets, and the lower officials have no permission to read them! ”

"You don't have to worry about the files of the Tianzihao, you can just transfer the other files!"

"No!"

After Cen Gao left, Jia Yue came to the Tianzihao Archives, there were a few guards standing at the door, and a principal came out and saluted: "See Si Cheng, I don't know what Si Cheng commands?" ”

Jia Yue said: "This official wants to access the relevant files!" ”

"This······ Si Cheng, you know the rules, the Tianzi number files are highly secret, only Si Zheng has the right to read them, please Si Cheng don't be embarrassed! ”

Jia Yue's face was ugly and said: "Wang Si is on business, and now the official is in charge of all the daily affairs, which means that the official has the right to access any file!" ”

The director of the Archives of the Son of Heaven bowed down and said: "Si Cheng, forgive me, although you are presiding over the overall daily affairs of the lawsuit, you are not the chief after all, so please forgive the officials for not obeying their orders!" ”

Jia Yue took a deep breath and took out the Imperial Gold Medal from his arms.

As soon as the director saw the gold medal, his face suddenly changed, and when he saw the words engraved on it, he was so frightened that he knelt down on the spot: "Your Majesty Sheng'an!" ”

Several of the guards also fell to their knees.

Jia Yue asked, "Can this official access the file in the Tianzi number now?" ”

"Yes, yes, please Si Cheng and the subordinate come in!"

Two hours later, on the wall of Jia Yue's office, a large piece of white paper was full of lines, and the names of various princes, imperial relatives, ministers, ministries, yamen, and local officials were written on the wall.

It can be said that even the national teacher Dongfang Chen, the left servant of Shangshutai shot Pei Jin, the right servant shot Gao Xu, the Zhongshu Ling Liang Lian, and the Zhongshu servant Lu Xuan all knew the general situation of the political power structure of the court, but they were definitely not as intuitive and detailed as described on this blank paper.

Cen Gao turned around and bowed his hand to Jia Yue and said, "Si Cheng, everything is done, and the roster has been copied!" ”

A small official next to him handed Jia Yue the list of political leaders and main members of the court who had completed the transcription.

Jia Yue took it and flipped it over, raised his head and glanced at the six officials present, and said in a deep voice: "Today's matter, everyone is rotten in the stomach of this official, go out of this door, and don't mention even a word to anyone, including Wang Sizheng!" Otherwise, the family law is waiting! ”

"No!"

Jia Yue waved his hand and asked everyone else to go out, he walked to the wall and took down this map of the relationship between the political forces of the various parties in the court and rolled it into a scroll, and then tied it with a thin rope.

He quickly left the underground intelligence gathering center and returned to the pre-litigation office on the ground through a secret passage.

In the afternoon, he handled the official duties of the waiting office normally, and after waiting for the end of the evening duty, he still did not leave, and it was not until the beginning of the evening that he got up and left the yamen of the waiting office, and took a carriage to the palace.

At this time, the street is already brightly lit, and it is still full of traffic.

It didn't take long for Jia Yue's carriage to come to the palace gate, and after waiting for about a cup of tea, the palace gate opened a side door, and under the watchful eye of the palace gate guards, two little eunuchs carried lanterns to open the way, and Kang Yide walked behind with a whisk.

Seeing this, Jia Yue took something and stepped forward to salute: "I've seen Mr. Kang!" ”

Kang Yide saw Jia Yue holding a long dossier and a book of folds in his hand, nodded, turned around and said, "Come with our family, don't look around!" ”

"No!"

In the imperial study, Zhao Junsheng was flipping through the classics.

Kang Yide walked in and bowed down: "Your Majesty, Jia Yue, waiting for the lawsuit, has arrived!" ”

"Xuan!"

Jia Yue walked in with something and saluted: "Jia Yue, the judge of the waiting lawsuit, knock to see Your Majesty!" ”

"Flat!" Zhao Junsheng raised his head and put down the book in his hand.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Jia Yue stood up and presented the long scroll and fold with both hands.

At Zhao Junsheng's signal, Kang Yide came over and took the long scroll and fold.

Zhao Junsheng opened the fold and looked at it, Pei Jin's name was written on the first page, and there were many names written below; On the second page, Liang Lian's name is written, and there are many names below.

It is clear that Pei Jin and Liang Lin are the leaders of a political force, and the names of those under their names are members.

Flipping down further, there are Dongfang Chen, Lu Xuan and several others, each of whom is a representative of a force.

On the excerpt, Zhao Junsheng saw the names of the crown prince Zhao Dong, the king of Shu Zhao Ping, the king of Jing Zhao Ting, and the king of Sui Zhao Zhen, and there were also some names under them, but Zhao Junsheng was not very familiar with these people, and the official positions of these people should be too small or not official at all.

Zhao Junsheng actually found the name of Chu Yuan, the concubine of the princess of Nanjun in the Southern Dynasty, under Zhao Ting, King Jing, which is interesting.
