"Your Majesty, this minister often doesn't dare to be"

Wu Zhi hurriedly bowed down and resigned: "The appointment and dismissal of Shao Yin's position is a big matter, and it is difficult for a minister to be a big minister, and he doesn't know anything about prison, even if he takes over this case, I am afraid that he will be powerless in the end." ”

Shaoyin's official position Wu Zhi wanted it too much, but he understood that he was not qualified to be this official now, otherwise he would only suffer from it, so he had to resign. However, when Wu Zhi resigned, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, no wonder so many people wanted to please the emperor, after pleasing the emperor, it was so easy to be promoted

And what Wu Zhi said later was the truth, although the Sun family fire case was full of suspicions, but there were no clues at present, and there were no suspects, not to mention that nothing could be found in Kaifeng Mansion, and even the dedicated reporters of Wu Zhi Bianjing Daily did not investigate anything.

Therefore, Wu Zhi had no confidence and didn't dare to take this job indiscriminately, he still wanted to go to the household department to get an errand.

"Your Majesty, since Master Wu doesn't want to go, don't force him." Wang Hao said leisurely, although he had a good impression of Wu Zhi, he didn't want Wu Zhi to rise so quickly.

"Eh, Your Majesty and Lord Wang don't know, Lord Wu is deliberately modest, in fact, he will handle the case."

Li Yan on the side smiled mysteriously at Zhao Ji and Wang Hao: "The slave has heard about it in Qingzhou, and Master Wu has handled a strange case in Qingzhou at the beginning."

"It's the case of Ho Qi"

"Tell me about it"

Zhao Ji and Wang Hao asked, while Wu Zhi only looked at Li Yan with a wry smile.

"It's a long story, then Master Wu is still the president of the Qingzhou Chamber of Commerce"

Li Yan vividly told the process of how Wu Zhi solved the theft of Liu Anjia's vault in Qingzhou, and Zhao Ji, who listened, clapped his hands again and again, and Wang Hao couldn't help nodding.

"I know that I didn't misread Aiqing" Zhao Ji patted Wu Zhi's shoulder appreciatively, and said: "Aiqing is outstanding, talented, and wise, and this matter will definitely be found out if it is handed over to you."

The ancients were just strange, even if they had some talents, what did they have to do with being an official and serving a politician

But the ancients just believed that if you have literary talent, you are suitable for being an official, and if you are suitable for being an official, you must be suitable for handling cases

With a wry smile, Wu Zhi could only admit: "That minister has no choice but to disobey the emperor's order and give it a try." After a pause, Wu Zhi continued: "However, Shaoyin will never dare to be a minister, and please ask Your Majesty not to grant it." ”

After Wu Zhi finished speaking, Wang Hao also looked at Wu Zhi with appreciation, as if to say: Boy, it's quite good

"This"

Zhao Ji was embarrassed, and said: "I know that Aiqing is indifferent to fame and fortune, but this time I appointed you is a big case, there is no enough official position, how to handle the case conveniently" Seeing that Wu Zhi's expression was not so resolute, Zhao Ji said: "It's better for me to appoint you a judge of Kaifeng Mansion, you can't shirk this"

The judge is second only to Shaoyin in Kaifeng Mansion, and he is also a powerful official, and now there is no Shaoyin in Kaifeng Mansion, although the official position of the judge is lower, but the power is actually the same.

"In this case, thank you Majesty Longen."

Wu Zhina bowed his head.

"Haha good"

Zhao Ji was very happy and said: "I know that Aiqing, you are not familiar with officialdom affairs, and you are specially allowed to transfer the subordinate officials of the six ministries at will during the handling of the case, Aiqing, you will definitely solve the case beautifully, and when the time comes, the young Yin of Kaifeng Mansion will still be yours."

Wu Zhi remained silent, but he was secretly happy in his heart, Shao Yin is equivalent to one of the Nine Qings, but whether it is real power or status in the court, it is no less than the six Shangshu, if Wu Zhi wins this official, it can be said that he will ascend to the sky in one step.

However, Wu Zhi also knows that as Zhao Ji said, the case must be handled beautifully to have a chance to be this Shao Yin, this is a big case, and if it is done well, it is a great qualification for Wu Zhi to be an official, and when the time comes, he will be able to cover this kind of official position when he becomes a young Yin.

"By the way, Your Majesty, when it comes to dispatching officials, there is a candidate who wants His Majesty's permission to be transferred to assist the minister in handling the case."

Wu Zhi suddenly thought of something.

"Who is it?"

"Libu Langzhong, Qin Hui."

"Qin Juniper"

Zhao Ji obviously hadn't heard of this fledgling petty official, but Wang Huang looked a little strange when he heard this name.

"Okay, since it is the person chosen by Aiqing, it must be extraordinary, I have already promised you the right to transfer officials, and you can call it at will."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Wu Zhi didn't really need Qin Hui to help investigate the case, but just to take advantage of Qin Hui's lack of prominence, and by the way, he was reminded of him.

After finishing the matter, Zhao Ji suddenly smiled at Wu Zhi and said: "Let's not mention this case first, tomorrow is the Spring Ploughing Festival on the second day of February, how about Aiqing come to the palace and play mahjong with me for a day."

Wu Zhi's face froze, and he smiled embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid I won't be able to play cards with Your Majesty tomorrow." ”

"Why don't we have you, we are missing one"

"This is because tomorrow is the birthday of the four boys in my family, and the minister held a wedding banquet at home."

"Hmm"

Zhao Ji's face changed, and he said: "I see, I think it's because the wedding banquet has invited a lot of guests to accompany you."

Wu Zhi heard Zhao Ji's words taste a little weird, but he still replied calmly: "It's just some relatives and friends." ”

"Although I am not your relative, am I not your friend?" Zhao Ji suddenly asked.

Wu Zhi was stunned, Emperor Xindao, we are relatives, but that has to wait until I marry your daughter

"Your Majesty, why do you say that," Wu Zhi wondered.

"You just say yes and no"

"Yes."

"Why don't you invite me to the birthday banquet of those four little nephews?"

When Wu Zhi heard this, he suddenly realized, it turned out that Zhao Ji was for this, no wonder his tone just now had a sour taste, it turned out that he was blaming himself for not inviting him.

"Your Majesty can come, and the minister is naturally grateful"

Although what Wu Zhi said was flattering, he was not panicked when he said it, but looked directly at Zhao Ji and laughed.

I have to say that if this emperor is a friend, then he is really a friend

"I'm going to bring the queen princess tomorrow, you have to be ready to receive it, haha"

After leaving the palace, Wu Zhi and Li Yan had a few words.

"Why didn't my father-in-law follow the original agreement?"

"Great official, at that time, His Majesty was already insisting on you taking over the case, and our family could only push the boat with the flow," Li Yan apologized to Wu Zhi.

Wu Zhi was also prepared before sending the painting today, not only did he hint that Zhao Ji wanted to serve in the household department, in order to ensure that nothing went wrong, but he also had already beckoned Li Yan to help remind Zhao Ji for him at a critical moment.

But at the critical moment, Li Yan turned to talk about Wu Zhi's case in Qingzhou, and let Wu Zhi take over this hot potato.

Seeing that Wu Zhi was a little unhappy, Li Yan smiled and persuaded: "Big official, our family is for your good, this Kaifeng Mansion judge doesn't know how many times better than the head of the household department, our family knows that you have always had officials in Bianjing who are inconvenient with you, and now that you have become a judge of Kaifeng Mansion, there is still an eyeless official in Bianjing who dares to provoke you."

Li Yan is right, the power of Kaifeng Mansion is equivalent to the sum of the Beijing Municipal Government, the Political Procuratorate and the Public Security Bureau in later generations, and there are the most high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital of a country, and these high-ranking officials hold many lifelines of the country and almost look down on the world, but in addition to the ministers of the two prefectures, no matter which Beijing official sees the governor of Kaifeng Prefecture, he will immediately restrain all his pride and become polite.

Because the Bianjing where they live is under the management of Kaifeng Mansion, no one has any pickled things, and when they encounter these troubles, they have a good relationship with Kaifeng Mansion and are naturally accommodating in every way, and those who offend Kaifeng Mansion can also become big troubles.

For example, the sons of high-ranking officials in later generations will be in Beijing and hit people in a drag racing car, which will make even ministerial-level high-ranking officials have to keep their voices low when they see the director of the Beijing Public Security Bureau.

"Hey, I said Gonggong Li, I can't hide it, I really don't have the confidence to handle this case well" Wu Zhi said bitterly, seeing Li Yan's face showing guilt, Wu Zhi had no choice but to make a helpless statement: "Don't take it as an example."

"There must be a big official, rest assured, whether the case is successful or not, our family will help you carry some points, if it doesn't work, we can catch some people to be scapegoats."

"Huh"

Wu Zhi only smiled, in fact, it was unexpected for Wu Zhi to be able to get into Kaifeng Mansion today, but since he was mixed with this road, then Wu Zhi was determined to find out a good official in this case, and the house was burned out by fire

As soon as he thought that he could open a guillotine to cut people like Bao Qingtian, and it was the original and genuine guillotine used by Master Bao, Wu Zhi felt a burst of excitement in his heart.

Guillotine

The guillotine has momentum, the guillotine has come out of official authority, and the guillotine has always contributed capital

Kaifeng Mansion Shaoyin, Wu Zhi is going to be decided
