Tomorrow is 515, the anniversary of the starting point, and the day with the most benefits. In addition to the gift bag and school bag, this time's "515 Red Envelope Flip" must be seen, how can there be a reason not to grab the red envelope, set the alarm clock high~

In the past, although Jiang Liwei was polite in front of Shen Xi, he had the reserve and arrogance of an official, and after not seeing him for a long time, he came up and called himself "brother", obviously intending to get closer to Shen Xi.

Since Jiang Li Wei does not want to call himself a court official, Shen Xi will not call him "adult", itself this title is an honorific title in this era, mostly used for parents or elders in the family, in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, it is not very common to call people in high positions "adults", and court officials are generally called by their surnames and official titles.

Jiang Liwei invited Shen Xi inside, but it was a small courtyard.

Jiang Liwei seemed to know Yunliu, but he was a little unfamiliar with Zhu Shan brought by Shen Xi, looked at Zhu Shan a few times, and asked, "Who is this?" ”

Shen Xi responded: "A domestic servant, if it's inconvenient, you can let her wait outside." ”

Jiang Liwei nodded, said hello, and came over with a servant with a broom, and took Zhu Shan to the main house of the courtyard to wait, and even Yunliu stayed behind.

Jiang Liwei walked in front, Shen Xi was second, and finally Yu Niang, and the three of them entered the west chamber together, only to know that there was a door in the house, which could lead to the courtyard next door.

The courtyard next door is obviously much larger, just like the hidden contact point of the underground party in later generations, it is obviously a wall, but after opening the mechanism, there is a road, and it passes through two or three courtyards in a row before it reaches the ground, but it is a small flower hall that looks nothing special.

"Shen Gongzi arrives at Taixue, it should be the first month of next year, right?" As soon as he arrived in the hall, before he sat down, Jiang Liwei asked.

"Exactly." Shen Xi said, "If Jiang Gongzi has an order, just say it." ”

Jiang Liwei smiled and said: "Don't misunderstand Shen Gongzi, it's not an order, I just want to ask Shen Gongzi for a favor, but the time is a little rushed." It is best to complete it before Shen Gongzi enters Taixue. ”

Shen Xi thought to himself: "Although it is the end of the year, how can there be twenty days before Taixue enters the school and enrollment, what is it that needs more than half a month to 'help'?" I have to leave the capital for a trip. Failed to help search for An Rushengyu's party? He immediately said: "I don't know much about it, so I still ask Jiang Gongzi to explain." ”

"Oh? It turns out that Yu Niang didn't tell Shen Gongzi in detail? That's it, even Zai Xia was afraid that Shen Gongzi would worry about affecting his studies, so he refused to help. Jiang Li said, "This matter is not a big deal. It's a trivial matter of the imperial court......"

There is no trivial matter in the imperial court, Jiang Liwei is insincere!

"An Ru was promoted to an evil place, hijacking merchant ships and official ships, the crime is unforgivable, and the reason why it took more than half a year to correct him was to track down his henchmen behind the scenes, as well as the people who the court sheltered for him. Pity...... The man has been in ambush for two years, and the investigation is still making little progress. ”

Speaking of this, Jiang Liwei sighed.

Shen Xi said: "I don't understand the major affairs of the imperial court, but I have a little shallow opinion. ”

Jiang Liwei said: "It doesn't hurt to say it. ”

"Since An Ru ascends to the law. If it is proved that he colluded with bandits and committed evil crimes, then the person who guaranteed his promotion is very likely to be his accomplice. But Jiang Gongzi said that it has not been traced so far, so it must be someone who committed suicide in fear of crime, or ...... The people who protected An Rusheng did not know about it, but only accepted bribes, and it was impossible to trace the culprits behind the scenes from these people. ”

Jiang Liwei smiled: "It seems that nothing can be hidden from Shen Gongzi." Indeed, there are many people involved in this case. But after the investigation, most people had nothing to do with An Rusheng's collusion with bandits to rob and kill. In fact, An Rusheng had many good names when he governed the local area, and during his tenure, the economy of the prefecture and county developed rapidly, and there was no shortage of people in the DPRK and the central government who promoted him. After An Rusheng was caught. Many people were implicated and imprisoned, and many committed suicide, but they did not know whether they committed suicide in fear of crime or were ashamed and angry. ”

"This case involves a wide range of people, and the reputation of the imperial court is not good, so what Mr. Liu means. The case was submitted to the Criminal Department for discretion and was not publicized......"

The criminal department will basically try the case openly, and now even the ministers of the DPRK and the central government have to conceal it, and there is only one explanation, that is, the case was nominally handed over to the criminal department, but in fact, it was Jinyiwei or Dongchang who interrogated and closed the case. This is tantamount to raising criminal cases to the level of national security, from the Supreme Court to the state security department.

Shen Xi nodded: "I see." ”

Jiang Liwei continued: "Young Master Shen must be strange about the intention of saying these words. These secrets should not be leaked to the outside world, but the stakes are very high, and Shen Gongzi made great contributions to the extermination of An Rusheng, and there is also the Tingzhou Chamber of Commerce behind it...... Well, I had a relationship of interest with An Rusheng. I discussed with Yu Niang below, and I all thought that Shen Gongzi was the best person to help us. ”

Shen Xi's worries finally came.

When An Rusheng was exterminated at the beginning, Shen Xi mentioned to Hui Niang that the imperial court tracked down An Rusheng's remaining party, and had no heart to care about the transfer of interests to An Rusheng by the local government, but once the imperial court came back to it, it was likely to settle accounts after the autumn.

An Rusheng colluded with bandits to seek money and kill is a case, but the local government has bribed him to help his power swell, this is another case, but the case is divided into sizes, since An Rusheng subdued the law, it stands to reason that the bribery case should also be dusty, but now Jiang Liwei brings up the old matter, obviously to let Shen Xi know each other.

Shen Xi was still very cautious, and bowed: "It is incumbent on him." ”

Jiang Liwei smiled and nodded, he was still very satisfied with Shen Xi's "reasonableness", and said immediately: "Since Shen Gongzi promised to help, then I will make it clear." I found out that the people involved with An Rusheng were not in official positions. However, since the beginning of this year, we have traced that this person has had a number of records of money and food in and out of the household department, which is of great importance......"

When Shen Xi heard this, he suddenly realized something.

Originally, An Rusheng's case had come to an end, but in the past two years, the northwest of the imperial court has been short of money and food, and Liu Daxia's household servant and the imperial history of the capital have gone to Xuanfu to manage military salaries, and they will definitely track down some old cases of military salary allocation, and I don't know how An Rusheng will be involved.

An Rusheng is a magistrate, and he has never owed the court taxes and grain before, so the key to this case is "out", not "in". In other words, the money and grain of the household department were embezzled for An Rusheng, and the imperial court wanted to track down the whereabouts. But the problem is, an An Rusheng can still be understood as evil in the local area, after all, the emperor is far away, but in the imperial court, if he does not have strong connections, how can he "steal grain" from the household?

This fully shows that An Rusheng is just a pawn of a certain force, and this force took grain from the imperial court in the name of An Rusheng, and the method used was nothing more than to declare a major disaster to the imperial court without a disaster or a small disaster, or to manipulate the money and grain allocated by the imperial court.

Shen Xi said: "Please forgive me for saying bluntly, Shen may not be able to help with these things." ”

Jiang Liwei had a somewhat cold smile on his face: "Not necessarily! Shen Gongzi has forgotten that behind you is the Tingzhou Chamber of Commerce, according to the investigation of the department, An Rusheng once served as the prefect of Tingzhou, and obtained a batch of grain from the imperial court for flood relief, and these grains were transported through the Chamber of Commerce. Shen Gongzi, do you think this matter can help? ”

Shen Xi felt sweat on his forehead.

It is no longer the case that the imperial court wants to investigate the transfer of interests of the previous chamber of commerce to An Rusheng, and listening to Jiang Liwei's meaning, it is to regard the Tingzhou Chamber of Commerce as An Rusheng's "accomplice".

An Rusheng was greedy for ink grain from the imperial court, and the result was that the Tingzhou Chamber of Commerce helped to transport it, and the implication was that the Tingzhou Chamber of Commerce and An Rusheng were in a group?

But that's not the case.

Before An Rusheng's incident, no one in the Chamber of Commerce could know what evil he had done.

When Gao Mingcheng was appointed as the prefect of Tingzhou, the Tingzhou Chamber of Commerce has been coordinating the relief of the victims of the Tingzhou Chamber of Commerce, and Hui Niang as the head of the Chamber of Commerce has done it herself.

If the Chamber of Commerce is classified as an accomplice with An Rusheng because of this, it is really too wrong.

However, there are two official words, Jiang Li only oppresses people with power, and he can say whatever he wants. Shen Xi immediately said solemnly: "The Tingjiang flood, the flood passed through the city, the Chamber of Commerce helped the imperial court to relieve the disaster and transport food, what is wrong?" ”

Jiang Li only thought for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Shen Gongzi misunderstood, in fact, I ask you for help, mainly to track down An Rusheng's comrades, not to investigate the responsibility of the Tingzhou Chamber of Commerce." ”

Although Shen Xi didn't know that after Jiang Liwei was requisitioned, he now had a few official residences, but it was expected that he was the fifth grade when he served as Zuo Cheng of Nanjing Dali Temple before, and his current official position was only high.

You, a court member of the fourth or fifth grade, can you talk politely to me, a junior who is just a person and has no official or character?

Shen Xi said: "I don't really understand what Lord Jiang meant. But if I really have something that can help, Master Jiang can just say it bluntly......"

Because Jiang Liwei's tone was aggressive just now, Shen Xi had to show his position, you are Shangguan, I am just a child, don't always talk about some useless.

Jiang Liwei nodded: "It's not a secret, we suspect that someone in the DPRK is involved in this case, but there is no evidence, so we set up a plan to lure the snake out of the hole, but there is no one to help...... So I want to ask Shen Gongzi for help. ”

Shen Xi was silent.

He understood the meaning, An Rusheng subdued the law, but the accomplices behind him had not been eliminated, or the culprit behind this matter was too prominent in the court and China, and he could not be convicted without evidence, so he needed to design a "trap".

But Yu Niang said before that this matter would not force him, the person who proposed this plan should be Jiang Liwei, Yu Niang was just a participant, and the matter was not reported to Liu Daxia.

It is estimated that Jiang Liwei thinks that there will be some risks in this trick of "luring the snake out of the hole", and the report can make a great contribution after the fact, but if it fails, as long as the people in the court do not come forward, the responsibility will not be attributed to him Jiang Liwei.

Shen Xi thought to himself: "It's clear that Jiang Liwei is using me as a gunman." In the end, he is different from Yu Niang, Yu Niang still knows how to ask for soft words, and he directly coerces and seduces, and those words just now are clearly to force me to comply. ”

Shen Xi said: "Although there is the Tingzhou Chamber of Commerce behind it, Tingzhou is far away from Jingshi Mountain, so it's busy...... I'm afraid I can't help. ”
