On the way to be arrested by the Jinyi Guards from the Yamen to suppress the Fu Division, these officials thought about many of the fates they would face, were tortured by the Jinyi Guards to extract confessions, and were tortured, and then they adhered to morality and used righteousness to fight with the vicious Jinyi Guards for right and wrong, even if they suffered some hardships because of this, they would eventually become famous in the government and the opposition.

But what they didn't expect was that after being taken to the Zhenfu Division, the other party was not in a hurry to torture, and the interrogation was also very casual. But this practice of not beating or scolding made them feel more pressure in the end, and looking at the crimes related to themselves, everyone became restless, and they didn't know what to do.

According to Lu Jin's meaning, he took the initiative to admit all the charges and confess? In this way, not only will the official position that has been obtained after years of hard work be guaranteed, but even the reputation will be completely ruined, even if the court is lightly punished, it will be difficult to be a person in the future. But what if you don't do it? I'm afraid the situation will be even more unfavorable, not only to learn the terrible methods of Jinyiwei, but also to avoid these crimes. They are truly faced with a dilemma.

Everyone in the hall sat there in a daze, looking at each other, but no one said anything. Maybe there is still a trace of luck in their hearts, maybe the colleagues in the court and the central government will jointly intercede with the Son of Heaven after hearing about what happened to them, as long as the emperor has a little hesitation, the opportunity will come.

With this in mind, everyone fell into silence for a short time, neither moving nor speaking, just staring at each other with the brocade guards who were guarding them, consuming each other.

It took more than half an hour like this, and they still didn't react, which made those brocade guards a little uncontrollable. After looking at each other, someone came out of the lobby and came to Lu Zhen to ask for advice. It was only when he said the matter that someone outside the door rushed over a little strangely: "Governor, Yu Qian, the secretary of the military department, brought a few officials outside and said that he wanted to see you." ”

"Huh?" Lu Zhen was slightly stunned, and then hurriedly stood up: "Let's just spend it with them first, and we are not in a hurry." I'll go to see Yu Mintang first, presumably he's here for these people. As he spoke, he hurried out the door and headed for the front yard.

A moment later, Lu Zhen met with Yu Qian, and as soon as the latter saw him, a complicated look suddenly appeared on his face. This look contains both complaining and a little self-blame. Because in his opinion, Lu Jin's doing all this is really a bit self-willing, but at the same time, he feels that he also has a certain responsibility for all this, if he had fought hard for His Majesty, maybe there would not have been such a situation.

"Xiaguan has seen Yu Butang!" Lu Zhen seemed much more comfortable, as soon as he saw Yu Qian, he hurriedly smiled and bowed his hand, and then bowed his hand to the other officials, which was regarded as a greeting.

Those few people couldn't help but snort, and then they reluctantly returned the salute, and one of them said in a weird tone: "Lord Lu, you look really majestic now, it's really impressive." ”

Yu Qian sighed softly: "Shansi, why are you ...... You have done such a thing, but you want me to say something about you! ”

Lu Zhen just smiled: "It's all for Your Majesty and for the imperial court, and in my opinion, there is no difference." Ladies and gentlemen, please go to the living room and sit down first. With a glance, someone led the way, and someone went to the side to prepare tea and snacks to entertain the guests.

After everyone sat down in the guest hall a little awkwardly, and someone respectfully served them tea, they had to admit that Lu Zhen had indeed fully established his authority in the Zhenfu Division now, which they could never have imagined.

However, even Yu Qian didn't mean to praise him for this, just frowned and said, "Shansi, you should know why we are here today." You have really gone too far this time, everyone is an official of the DPRK and China, how can you let Jinyiwei take people without permission? I thought that the brocade guard could make a difference in your hands, but now it seems that ...... "said with a helpless sigh.

One of the people on the side sneered: "Actually, in the hands of Lu Dudu, the Jinyi Guard is still different. For example, during this period of time, there were people in Jinyi every day making noise on the streets of the capital, which was never seen before. ”

Hearing the other party ridicule himself with such words, Lu Zhen was not angry, but just smiled and said: "It seems that everyone's prejudice against Jinyiwei is the same as always." Lord Yu, Xia Guan told you long before he first served as Jinyiwei that the purpose of my coming here is just to better share the worries of my Ming and Your Majesty, and this mind has not changed today. That's why I let the Jinyi guards practice diligently, just so that I can use them for national merit in the future. ”

"Hmph, that's nice, who knows if you're trying to make them better able to arrest us court officials. It's only been a few months now, and you'll be able to bring in the officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Criminal Department, and the Household Department. Even everyone here, I'm afraid that you will be casually accused of a crime and become a prisoner in the Suppression Division. ”

"Uncle Zheng......" Yu Qian glanced at this colleague who kept talking and sarcastically mocking Lu Jin with some dissatisfaction, stopped him from continuing to speak, and then looked at Lu Jin: "Good thinking, it is really too undesirable for Jinyiwei to take people at will today." They are court officials, even if they are guilty, it is not such a way, not to mention that they have always been diligent and have never done anything wrong, so why do you bother to use them to establish prestige? It's better to listen to my advice and let the people go, I promise that the DPRK and China will not be embarrassed for you because of this. ”

Lu Zhen sighed: "It seems that Lord Yu, you also believe that my Jinyi Wei will only wronged people, not because they did commit serious crimes to take people down?" ”

"What kind of felony did they commit, and they actually had to work for your Jinyi Guard to bring in so many imperial court officials with great fanfare?" Another asked with a look of indignation.

"Lord Yu, presumably before you came to my Zhenfu Division, you had already gone to the palace to ask for help from Your Majesty, right? He shouldn't have given permission, that's why you're coming to me. Lu Jin asked speculatively. After receiving an affirmative answer, he asked again: "Then don't you think it's strange, if my Jinyiwei really takes people indiscriminately, how can Your Majesty let it go?" ”

It's not that Your Majesty listens and believes in you too much...... Some people thought in their hearts, but this is not easy to say after all, otherwise a crime of slandering the Holy Monarch will have to be really deducted from the head, and this is still the Department of Suppression.

"You mean they are indeed guilty?" Yu Qian tasted the meaning of his words, and asked in disbelief.

Lu Zhen nodded: "Not bad." Do you still remember the three years of Jingtai, and the case of Wanxie in the household department Langzhong was investigated for corruption? ”

Several people looked at each other a few times, but they still said humbly: "I still have some impressions of this matter." At that time, some officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate impeached him for abusing his power for personal gain, and then the officials of the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Criminal Department strictly investigated him, and a large amount of money and property were found from his home on the spot, and his charges were confirmed...... Is there something wrong with this case? ”

"There is a lot of trickery behind this seemingly ordinary corruption case. In fact, Jin Yiwei had already found out a lot of inside information at that time, but it was only because he couldn't enter the palace and couldn't see His Majesty that he could only seal it. However, some time ago, Xia Guan found out the relevant files, thus discovering the hidden secrets and conspiracies. ”

"What do you mean by that?" Yu Qian's face changed suddenly, and the others finally raised their spirits.

Lu Zhen asked someone to take a file and handed it to Yu Qian, and said briefly: "In fact, what this Wan Xie is greedy for is not only tens of thousands of taels of silver, but also a large number of fields and manors that have not been confiscated into the public. And these things were later secretly divided by many officials in the DPRK and China. The people who shared these properties were the officials of the Criminal Department who investigated the corruption case of Wan Xie at that time, as well as some officials of the Household Department who testified. They colluded with each other, and actually gave a huge greed that actually embezzled nearly a million dollars to a small greed who only embezzled a mere 50,000 taels of silver, and then divided all the money and property that Wan Xie was greedy for. This kind of deception and concealment is really shocking! ”

"What?" Rao is Yu Qian is well-informed, and after hearing this, he was so shocked that he almost stood up from the chair. Others looked incredulous: "How is this possible...... How could they be so bold......"

"Yes, even the lower officials felt that this matter was a bit ridiculous, so for this reason, they also sent people from Jinyi Wei to carefully verify it. As a result, it was first found out that Su Xu, the official who took the lead in impeaching Wan Xie, also had several properties in the capital......"

"That's why you let Jinyiwei's people go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to bring him to justice?" Yu Qian seemed to understand.

Lu Zhen nodded: "That's right, from his mouth, Xia Guan finally confirmed that the secret report recorded before was indeed not true." And the cadres who were taken down by my Jinyi Wei today are the criminals involved in this corruption case. Moreover, I have already told Your Majesty the truth, and then I have received the decree to go to the Ministry of Household and the Ministry of Punishment to get them. ”

Several people were stunned for a moment, speechless for a long time. I thought it was Jin Yiwei persecuting the officials of the imperial court, but it was only at this time that I realized that things were far more complicated than I thought. Jin Yiwei did all this to uphold justice, which is really unacceptable.

They subconsciously wanted to deny it, but Su Xu's confession was here, but it couldn't be faked. In addition, this kind of thing is actually well documented, and they believe that it is impossible for Lu Zhen to lie about it.

As a result, this rescue looked particularly ridiculous, and the faces of several officials suddenly became extremely ugly and embarrassed. Only Yu Qian, after carefully reading this confession, frowned again and said, "There is still a problem here......
