However, this kind of embarrassment only lasted for a short time, and Yang Zhen quickly made a decision: "I think several adults in the Criminal Department have also heard about what has happened in the past few days. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Well, when this is over, I will go to the criminal department to give you a satisfactory explanation. ”

"This ......" The officials of the Criminal Department suddenly looked embarrassed, although Yang Zhen's words sounded good, but in fact, they were no different from refusal, which made them not easy to deal with. But at the same time, these people are also very aware of the current facts, not to mention Yang Zhen, the governor of the brocade guard, even the other hundreds of households who look at themselves with their eyebrows upright, I am afraid that they cannot afford to provoke them with their own status.

Just when these people were still hesitating and embarrassed, Grehei spoke again with a black face: "Why, don't you even believe the words of our governor?" Or do you want us to bring you all in and interrogate you carefully? As he spoke, he looked the officials up and down with bad intentions.

Being looked at by the other party a few times made several officials even more panicked, and hurriedly waved their hands and said: "Don't dare, how dare the lower officials question Yang Dudu's words, but after all, this case involves the imperial court officials, and my criminal department does not dare to slack off." Moreover, even if we don't check, I'm afraid that other yamen will also ......."

Seeing that they still wanted to threaten themselves, Grehei suddenly snorted and wanted to say something. But before he could speak, Yang Zhen, who was about to enter the yamen, suddenly turned his head again: "What you said does have some truth, this case is indeed very strange." In this way, I can go to the criminal department to be tried sooner......"

"Ah......" Everyone around was stunned when they heard that he suddenly changed their minds, and those officials of the Criminal Department immediately perked up, while Grehei and the others were surprised.

Yang Zhen came back to the officials of the Criminal Department and said, "Tomorrow, I can go to the Criminal Department, but you also have to promise me one thing." ”

"Yang Dudu, but please rest assured, my criminal department will definitely not wronged you......" someone hurriedly said. But in exchange, it was Yang Zhen's somewhat disdainful eyes and smiles, that is, a few of them were blackened, and they all laughed mockingly at this time, such words used to appease ordinary people or petty officials said to Yang Zhen, it is really unreasonable, and now Yang Zhen is still afraid that the Criminal Department will not judge impartially?

After laughing for a while, Yang Zhen said: "As far as I know, the deceased in this case is likely to be Zheng Heng, the head of the Ministry of Industry. And just yesterday, his family was found dead in their yard. In my opinion, these two cases seem to be related, and if your criminal department wants to investigate, bring this case over as well. ”

"Is there such a thing?" Na Langzhong was slightly stunned, and then nodded solemnly: "If this is the case, the lower officials will report to Lord Shilang, and they will definitely bring yesterday's case over and investigate it." ”

"So it's hard for you. Tomorrow, as long as you get the investigation power of the case from Shuntianfu, I will go to the Criminal Department to give you an explanation. Yang Zhen waved his hand as he spoke, and then he entered the gate of the Zhenfu Division.

Although the official seemed to have something else to say, he could only sigh in the end and leave with some reluctance. In fact, this is the final result they can get, at least they only need to hold on for another day, and tomorrow those officials will not be able to continue to dwell on this matter.

However, Yang Zhen's subordinates were a little puzzled by this. When Yang Zhen returned to his public hall and was about to call a few people over to give orders, a group of cronies rushed over and asked him about what happened in front of the gate before.

"Governor, if you want to investigate this case, let's investigate it ourselves, why bother to negotiate conditions with the Criminal Department?"

"Yes, Governor, now many people in the court are staring at us, if you are passive in the Criminal Department, things will not be easy to do. It's better to drag it out like this, and they can't do anything about us. ”……

These subordinates are not very lively, but Yang Zhen just listened with a smile, and only said at the end: "Your opinion is not wrong, in fact, I am not afraid of them making a fuss about this." When I entered the palace yesterday, I had already mentioned the case to His Majesty, and he did not believe that I would do it. "In this day and age, it sometimes doesn't matter what the courtiers think, the key is the opinion of the Son of Heaven. As long as Wanli trusts Yang Zhen, no matter how much Ren Yanguan says, he can't hurt him in the slightest.

"In that case, why should you ...... the governor?"

"I did it for a reason, of course. First, the so-called authorities are obsessed, and I also need some outsiders to help me see the clues of this matter, and there are still some good investigators in the criminal department, and it should be very safe for them to take action. Second, the Criminal Department's willingness to let me go that day has already given me enough face, I can't take revenge and not give them face, right? ”

As soon as he said this, these people really couldn't object. Although Jinyiwei is incompatible with the major yamen in Beijing, it is not a bad thing to have more friends and fewer opponents.

"As for the third point...... Yang Zhen picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea and moistened his throat before continuing: "If we take the initiative to investigate the murder of Zheng Heng's family, there will be a lot of criticism in the DPRK and China, which is very unfavorable to us. Maybe even if we find out the truth, some people will think that it is a forgery, in order to exonerate me. But if the case is found out by the Criminal Department, it is much easier to say. ”

Since his reasons were so sufficient, and he was very confident that he could not be wrongfully murdered by the Criminal Department, all his subordinates did not say anything more, and they all surrendered their resignations.

Yang Zhen smiled, then stopped Xia Kai and asked, "From last night to now, has there been any change in the Longping Marquis Mansion?" ”

Xia Kai shook his head: "At least on the surface, there is nothing unusual. ”

"He's much more stable than before, is this a bit of a cut and a lot of wisdom?" Yang Zhen sneered: "Since he doesn't move, let's do it ourselves, I want to see if he Zhang Tong's hands and feet are so clean that we can't find out anything." ”

After only a moment of work, a team of two hundred Jinyi guards drove out of the Zhenfu Division and went straight to the Longping Marquis Mansion to kill.

Half an hour later, the changes that surprised the surrounding people unfolded again in front of the Longping Marquis Mansion.

To be honest, in the past few days, the people of Xicheng have opened their eyes. This is not only the Jinyi Wei and the people fighting on the street, but also the officials' houses were killed all over the ground with blood, and now there is a trick of the Jinyi Wei surrounding the hereditary Hou Mansion, this year's New Year Festival is really very lively.

Naturally, the people didn't want to miss this kind of show, so a large number of spectators gathered nearby, blocking half of the street.

Zhang Tong, who rushed out after hearing the news, saw such an appearance, which made him really shocked and angry, angry and anxious, but when he saw Yang Zhen's appearance that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, he couldn't get a seizure. I had no choice but to hold back my anger and step forward and ask, "Yang Dudu, what do you Jinyiwei mean by this?" Although he was apprehensive, he was prepared, and he still held on.

"Why, now that you have to pretend to be innocent, saying that you don't know anything?" Yang Zhen took a moment to find a chair and sit down, then pointed to another chair and said, "Master Hou, please sit down and talk." "Well, as soon as we met, he actually came to fight against the customer.

Zhang Tong's heart was weak, and he didn't dare to turn his face at this time, so he could only snort, sat down as he said, and then said: "Yang Dudu, there was indeed some misunderstanding between you and me, but you have hurt my eldest son...... Isn't that enough? Although I, Zhang Tong, am just an idle marquis and have no power, I can't escape a word of reason in this world, don't bully people too much! If you really want to talk about it, I still have some friends in Longpinghou! ”

"Marquis Zhang's words are really serious, how can this governor always be embarrassed by you because of some trivial things? It's just that this time the matter is not trivial, for the safety of the capital and the imperial court, I have to go this way. Moreover, Master Hou, don't pretend, I don't think you don't know what happened yesterday. Yang Zhen said, staring deeply into the other party's eyes.

This made Zhang Tong even more nervous, and he couldn't help lowering his eyes and didn't dare to look at him. And Yang Zhen continued: "Of course, if Hou Ye insists on saying that he doesn't know anything, then I can also make it clear. Just yesterday, we Jinyi Wei intercepted a carriage and the convoy escorting it. As a result, Yang Chen of the Ministry of Industry was actually hidden in the car, and he was kidnapped. As for those robbers, they are all spies. Of course, these are not the reasons why I brought people here, so I came here because of one thing - the carriage was the car of your Longping Marquis Mansion, and most of the clothes worn by those people were the clothes of the guards of your Marquis Mansion. In this regard, I don't know if Marquis Zhang has any explanation? ”

Although "this ......" already had a plan, when facing Yang Zhen's sharp gaze, Zhang Tong still felt weak for a while, and his confidence was not so sufficient. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "There must be a misunderstanding in this matter!" I also just found out that just a few days ago, my car was stolen, and I didn't want to be used by thieves like this......"

Hearing him give such an explanation, Yang Zhen laughed unconsciously: "Is it so coincidental? Can someone steal a carriage from the dignified Hou Mansion? ”

"What's so strange about that? The Suppression Division was robbed of an important person before! For the sake of confidence, Zhang Tong hurriedly sneered at each other.

Yang Zhenhe laughed: "My Zhenfu Division has indeed been robbed of prisoners, but only a few people know the truth about this matter at present, dare to ask Hou Ye how did you know?" ”

"I ......" Zhang Tong's heart suddenly tightened, his face changed, and he regretted that he was so quick to say something.

Yang Zhen's face sank: "Only those thieves or their comrades will know the truth." Also, if people don't know what to do unless they do, does Hou Ye really think you can cover everything? Come on, search for me, I want to see how bold you are Longpinghou! ”
