After all, Song Gong was a petty official in Kaifeng Mansion before, and he was not very clear about some things in the court.

The transfer envoy in Sichuan is a heavyweight in Zhu Mian's faction, and he has made great contributions to Zhu Mian's unification of Jiangnan officialdom in the southeast of Zhu Mian before, and the transfer of that official to Sichuan is operated by Zhu Mian of Bianjing, in order to help that official cultivate qualifications, so that it will be convenient to enter Bianjing and enter the two prefectures in the future.

It is conceivable that when Sun Xin was investigating the transfer envoy in Sichuan, Zhu Mian mobilized almost all his connections in the DPRK in order to keep that official, and also used all means, and finally even did not hesitate to dredge the criminal department, and resorted to the means of letting Sun Xin be promoted to Bianjing and stay away from Sichuan.

But Sun Xin's reputation as a ghost in officialdom is not in vain, after receiving the order from the Criminal Department, he directly dragged it up, and dragged it out again and again, until he finally found out the ironclad evidence that the transfer made all the money and murder and bent the law for personal gain, and with vigorous and resolute means, he unbelievably brought his top boss to justice, and then left Sichuan leisurely to take up his post in Bianjing.

Zhu Mian not only lost a confidant in this battle, but also made a wedding dress for Sun Xin for his promotion in vain, because he must have hated Sun Xin to the core.

Summing up these, it was normal for Qin Hui to suspect Zhu Mian.

However, Wu Zhi pondered for a long time, but shook his head.

"Although Zhu Mian is a little suspicious, but if you think about it carefully, there are many things that can't stand scrutiny, and I think this case should have nothing to do with him."

"Why"

After Wu Zhi finished speaking, Qin Hui looked puzzled.

"Think about it from another perspective, if you were Zhu Mian, if you wanted to harm Sun Xin, you would choose to harm him in Bianjing and use such appalling means to harm him" Wu Zhi asked Qin Hui rhetorically.

Qin Hui was stunned for a moment, and immediately shook his head.

"It's really too ostentatious to do it in Bianjing, but here is the foot of the Son of Heaven"

After Sun Xin brought Zhu Mian's henchmen to justice, he set off to Bianjing to take up his post, Sichuan is thousands of miles away from Bianjing, there is no shortage of poor mountains and bad rivers along the way, and there are many places where bandits are concentrated, if Zhu Mian really wants to harm Sun Xin, he will find a random place along the way to send someone to pretend to be robbers and thieves to rob and kill, and Sun Xin can be solved without any trouble.

Zhu Mian would never choose to send someone to kill the family of high-ranking officials in the imperial city, because the risk is extremely high, and one careless person will pay a high price.

"That's the first place that doesn't stand up to scrutiny, and there's a second point." Wu Zhi said, "When Sun Xin ran the transfer envoy in Sichuan, His Majesty personally reviewed and supervised it, and it was His Majesty who finally ordered the punishment, with Zhu Mian's temperament, even if he had great grievances, he would never dare to retaliate against Sun Xin anymore What's more, Sun Xin just dealt with his henchmen, and he didn't target Zhu Mian." ”

The reason why Sun Xin's Sichuan transfer envoy was so smooth and so powerful, in addition to his strong wrists and ironclad evidence, the most important point is that Zhao Ji, who has always been a shopkeeper and handed over all political affairs to Cai Jing and Liang Shicheng, did not know if it was a whim at the time, but he actually personally inquired about this case, so such a feudal official would be taken down in one fell swoop.

Wu Zhi was also surprised by Zhao Ji's sudden change of sex, and later learned from Brother Murong that it seemed that the prince of Sichuan was impressed by Sun Xin's personality charm and was secretly helping him.

All in all, although Zhu Mian oppressed the people and was tough and domineering, but in front of Zhao Ji, he was a little face wagging his tail and praying for mercy, Zhao Ji personally ordered to take out his henchmen, even if he wanted to relieve his hatred, he would not be in such a hurry.

"In this way, this matter has nothing to do with Zhu Mian"

Losing a clue, Qin Hui was a little disappointed.

Wu Zhi looked at Qin Hui, and there was a little appreciation in his heart, sure enough, no young man became bad when he first entered the officialdom, they were all slowly polluted in the general environment, and now Qin Hui still has a righteous blood, otherwise, he would never dare to say that he doubted the behemoth power of the Zhu family.

"Not necessarily, it's all speculation." Wu Zhi instructed Song Gong: "At present, Zhu Mian and they are still suspicious, remember not to miss them when you investigate." ”

"Until the truth is revealed, I will not let go of any clues." Song Gong said solemnly.

"Okay."

After seeing that it was still early, Wu Zhi asked that the 14 charred corpses of the Sun family were still in the morgue of Kaifeng Mansion, so he planned to ask Song Gong to be a servant and go to open the coffin again for an autopsy.

At the thought of going to the autopsy, Wu Zhi was inevitably a little nervous in his heart.

"Adult, Adult"

Wu Zhi and the others had just walked to the door of the signing room, but they saw Peng Shun hurriedly running over.

"What's the hurry?" asked Wu Zhi.

"My lord, a distinguished guest came to the court in front of me, saying that there are clues about the Sun family's case to report to your lordship." Peng Shun smiled hard.

He also has lingering feelings about Wu Zhi.

"Clue of distinguished guest" Wu Zhi raised his eyebrows slightly, and said: "Let's go, go and meet"

At this time, Wu Zhi took office in the Kaifeng Mansion Court, beating a hundred officials and officials of Kaifeng Mansion, and all 100 people were drawn to faint, and these people were all caught by Wu Zhi, half of them were demoted, and half of them were directly dismissed This news quickly spread to the ears of officials everywhere in Bianjing.

All the officials, whether they were to see Wu Zhi before or not, after hearing the news, they were shocked at the same time, and at the same time, they couldn't help but look at Wu Zhi with admiration, and on the first day of taking office, Kaifeng Mansion, the first capital of the Great Song Dynasty, carried out a major purge, and completely controlled Kaifeng Mansion with a snap of their fingers.

If the people heard about this deed, they would definitely talk about Wu Zhi beating a hundred officials until he fainted; And the focus of the officials is different, although they are also afraid of Wu Zhi's ruthlessness, but what makes them even more incredible is how Wu Zhi can control the entire Kaifeng Mansion on the first day, so that he can beat those petty officials and officials.

The officials have all experienced the period when new officials took office in their official careers, and none of them can be as domineering and domineering as Wu Zhi.

The East Mansion is located in the palace, Cai Jing is sitting behind the bookcase in the main room and drinking tea, after listening to the report of his subordinates, he blew the hot tea leisurely.

"After beating a hundred officials in Kaifeng Mansion, this Wuzhi has finally revealed his grandeur."

"The master has already seen that this person is not simple"

The subordinate is an old man, and being able to ask this question shows that he is Cai Jing's confidant.

"I knew he was hiding clumsy, but I didn't expect him to have more means than I thought, it seems that I underestimated him a little before."

"Wu Zhi has replaced all important positions in Kaifeng Mansion with his own people, Peng Shun is also under his control, Kaifeng Mansion has been out of our control, should we do something"

"Not necessarily."

Cai Jing waved his hand and said, "He didn't beat Peng Shun, he just showed mercy to the old man." Besides, he is handling a case for His Majesty, and he must do so to handle the case with all his might, and this case is very important, so it is better for us not to make a fuss about nothing. lest you get involved in the case. After a pause, Cai Jing continued: "Tell Peng Shun to serve that person well." ”

Cai Jing is powerful, a small Kaifeng Mansion, even if there are no people from him, it doesn't matter.

"Yes."

His subordinates bowed slightly, and then retreated.

On the other side, in a luxuriously decorated room, there was a snapping sound of a wine glass breaking.

Zhu Mian slammed the table hard, and the wine and food on the table in the town shook.

"Our eyeliner in Kaifeng Mansion was all expelled by Wu Zhi," Zhu Mian said angrily.

"Yes, Kaifeng Mansion Liucao and Dutou, all our people have been purged by that guy," said his subordinates.

"Didn't you tell me to go down and use my hand today to embarrass Wu Zhi, why was it put on the back burner?"

"That Wuzhi is obviously prepared, a mountain is higher than a mountain."

"Bah bullshit, a mountain is higher than a mountain"

Zhu Mian jumped like thunder and smashed the wine glass directly on the face of his subordinates.

"The villain knows the wrong, the villain knows the wrong"

"Someone dragged me down and beat me with wattles until I passed out."

Ignoring the pleading of his servants, Zhu Mian asked someone to drag the servant down.

"Why should I say it too"

Thinking of this, Zhu Mian jumped up directly and kicked over the table as if someone had stabbed a chrysanthemum

"Damn it"
