- "Wechen will go and check ...... again," Bao Zheng said.

"You don't need to check it, you can't find it out." Zhao Zhen sighed in frustration: "A bunch of fools, who were sold and helped count the money." I'm afraid they don't know who's behind them. ”

Bao Zheng was silent, in fact, he ended up today, in the final analysis, it was the fault that the officials were too lenient to their subordinates. Zhao Zhen has been in power for 20 years, and he has never spared the rewards of his internal and external courtiers. If you make a mistake, you only focus on education, and if you commit a crime, you will be punished lightly, even if it is a crime of killing your head, Zhao Zhen will often avoid death.

As everyone knows, if the favor is too much, the heart will be blasphemous, and if the grace is not modest, then the insatiable resentment will arise. It is precisely because the official family has given too much favor and favor to the attendants that they have delusions of Weifu forever. Worried that it would be replaced by the inner chamberlain team in the palace outside, he deliberately made the palace ban useless, giving those stupid people a chance to defile the palace.

Waiting for one of the ten pavilions to give birth to a 'dragon son', they will have a future master. If the nobles with shallow roots want to protect the 'dragon sons' in the treacherous palace and grow up, they must rely on them and be controlled by them.

If the nobles want to break free from their control, they can use the secret of the 'dragon son' to hold her hostage, and she will never be able to resist.

So if they don't do anything, they can get the most favorable results, and their hearts can be punished!

However, they have not done anything, at most it is only a crime of dereliction of duty, and as for their sinister intentions, how can people be punished?

Perhaps most emperors could kill them without a reason, but Zhao Zhen was obviously not among them. Then his forbearance and forgiveness that he had been brainwashed and educated by the scholars and doctors since he was a child was already strong enough to disobey his nature.

"The key yamen inside and outside the palace, the widows have all changed their helms." Zhao Zhen leaned back on the recliner and said slowly: "As for those wolf-hearted things, the widow doesn't want to see them again......"

"......" Seeing that the official family was betrayed like this, and only thinking about driving those guys out of the palace, Bao Zheng felt nameless, and he wanted to tell the official family the truth of 'killing chickens and setting an example for monkeys'. But after thinking about it, he tasted a different meaning, so he replied in a muffled voice: "Yes." ”

"What else?" Seeing that Bao Zheng wanted to speak and stopped, Zhao Zhen asked softly: "If there is no problem, close the case." ”

"Weichen still has two doubts," Bao Zheng said in a deep voice: "One is that everything is too coincidental, why is it not revealed early and late, but it was only exposed after the news of the birth of the 'prince' spread." After a pause, he said, "And." Wechen has never seen that oil seven so far. I can't figure it out, how stupid do you have to be to reveal the secrets of such a copying of the Nine Clans? ”

"Let's close the case. Don't check it any further, you won't be able to see it. Zhao Zhen sighed and said: "Earlier, it was reported that Nayou Qi committed suicide in fear of crime on the way to escort......"

"Dead?" Bao Zheng's eyes widened and said, "How did you die?" ”

"Hanged himself in a post house at night." Zhao Zhen said slowly: "The Criminal Department has already gone to conduct an autopsy. The return is suicide. ”

"This ......" Bao Zheng frowned and said: "Since I know that it is a death, it is better to make up a reason at the beginning than to confess truthfully." ”

"Maybe, this is Xianggong Wen covering up the ugliness of the widow." Zhao Zhen sighed lightly and said: "Otherwise, as soon as that guy arrives at the Criminal Department, he will talk nonsense, and the widow will become the laughing stock of the world." ”

"......" Bao Zheng was speechless again, this is the true idea of the official family...... After the initial anger, Zhao Zhen was more concerned about how to prevent the scandal from spreading. made himself from a saintly son of heaven admired by everyone to a laughing stock in the mouths of the people in the market.

Including dealing with the offenders lightly and closing the case as soon as possible, it is all for the sake of reducing the big thing to the small and eliminating the impact. So when he heard that Youqi was dead, Zhao Zhen's first reaction was to be relieved.

It's just an official, Wen Yanbo's move is still possible, he is wiping his ass for others! Or both...... With Bao Zheng's keen judgment, this possibility is extremely high.

There is only one truth. How can it be ambiguous?

But the official family didn't want to check anymore, he was too tired of it, and he urgently needed everything to restore calm. Zhao Zhen sighed faintly: "Forget it, don't check it again." It's been a hard day, so let's go home and sleep tonight. ”

"Yes......" Bao Zheng had no choice but to respond: "Weichen retired." ”

Zhao Zhen nodded. When I close my eyes, I seem to be asleep.

Exit from the dormitory. Bao Zheng saw Di Qing. In the afternoon, they were ordered to pass the qi, and Di Qing already knew the ins and outs of the matter.

"How?" Seeing Bao Zheng come out, Di Qing asked, "How to deal with those people?" "It's not that he is gossiping, but he doesn't know the attitude of the officials, and he can't start to rectify the Imperial City Division.

"The official said," Bao Zheng stood still and said solemnly: "I don't want to see those wolf-hearted things again." ”

"What does this mean?"

"Do you want the official to make it clearer?" Bao Zheng said quietly: "Do you want the official family to bear the name of inhumanity?" ”

"I see." Di Qing nodded, he never cared about killing people for the official family, so he said in a deep voice: "There are some things that really can't wait for the official family to make it clear." ”

"As for the charges, the people of the Imperial City Division know it." Bao Zheng said lightly: "As for the outside world, it is said that they are dissatisfied with disarmament, and they suspect that the old man is trying to disarm the official family in order to save expenses, so they intend to plot against the old man......"

"How can you keep carrying the black cauldron?" Bao Zheng is Di Qing's most respected courtier, and there is no one.

"It's all called the old man Bao Heizi, who will carry the black pot if I don't carry it?" Bao Zheng twisted his beard and laughed: "The rest of the things will be handed over to Di Xianggong, and the old man will go home and sleep." ”

"Bag-sama." Di Qing asked: "This case, that's it?" ”

"What do you say?" Bao Zheng's eyes showed a resolute expression.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That night, the Imperial City Division and the Inner Servant Province launched a rectification at the same time.

The lanterns and torches will enter the inner courtyard of the province, illuminating as bright as day.

In the previous dynasty, there was only the province of internal servants in the palace, and the same was true in the early Song Dynasty. At the beginning of the country, the Ministry of Internal Service had the Inner Middle School and High-grade Class Academy, which was in charge of the internal service affairs of the court, and its importance far exceeded that of other courts, so its status rose again and again. Finally in Jingde for three years. It was established as the province of the inner servant, and the province of the inner servant was called the province before and after, and it was closer to the emperor, so it entered the inner province and has always been regarded as the head of the great interior. Over time, it has overtaken the Ministry of Internal Affairs and has become the highest authority of the Inner Court.

In the past, a random role in the inner service province. They are all arrogant and energetic. But at the moment. One should be guarded, the inner east and west head worship officials, the inner attendant palace head, the inner attendant Gaopin, the inner attendant high class, and the inner attendant Huangmen, all of them are like frosted eggplants, trembling and standing in the courtyard.

Opposite them. It was Li Jihe, the new deputy governor of the Inner Servant Province, who was born as a horse thief, and was later captured. In order to save his life, he entered the palace with a clean body. For more than ten years, he has not been in the palace, but was sent by the official family to the battlefields of Northwest and Dingzhou as a supervisor, which is said to be a murderous person. This time, he was urgently transferred back to Beijing and became the deputy head of Ouchi...... But in fact, the manager has never been concerned, so he is the real manager.

The eunuchs knew what the thief had done when he returned. There was a dead silence in the courtyard, except for the crackling of torches in the night wind.

Li Jihe has been silent, and he doesn't know what he is waiting for. The others stood and knelt, and felt that the night did not know when it would be dawn.

Until a small yellow door came into the yard. Gong Shengyu reported: "Gonggong Hu said that the official family has fallen asleep. ”

"Okay." Li Jihe nodded, and then began to distribute everyone: "Listen, because of your dereliction of duty, our family finally doesn't have to eat sand in the northwest, and can go back to Bianjing to enjoy two days of happiness." After a pause, he showed his white teeth and said, "To show gratitude." I'm going to give you a meal! ”

The eunuchs knew that sooner or later they would not be able to escape this scene. However, the Ministry of Internal Service is in charge of the punishment department and is very particular about playing the board. Some of them are beaten to the point that their skin is open, they look bloody and scary, but in fact, as long as they apply the gold medicine externally, they will be raised for a few days. Whatever you do; Some of them don't even have swollen skin after beating, but they make your intestines cracked. Even his life could not be saved - it is said that the straw wrapped in cotton paper for the board, and the grass inside was sparsely beaten, and the paper on the outside was not broken.

Because they had expected to eat the board, all the eunuchs who were guilty of dereliction of duty paid money in advance to teach the Huangmen subordinates who were executed to show mercy, so that they did not panic at first.

Li Jihe gave an order, and the yellow door in charge of the criminal department came in, spread the mats on the ground, and more than a dozen eunuchs stepped forward to accept the guilt. When the matter came to an end, they were finally a little scared, and whispered to Li Jihe: "Father-in-law's subordinates are merciful, we will repay dogs and horses in the future." ”

"It's easy to say," Li Jihe said with a cruel smile: "Let's be executed!" ”

The little yellow men in charge of the punishment department pressed down one by one the eunuchs, pulled out their pants, and covered them with a piece of linen. Then he raised his stick and began to round it down. The muffled sound and screams suddenly resounded in the courtyard, beating them to the point that their skin and flesh were open and blood was collapsing, and the spectators were all frightened.

But in fact, don't look at the beating so lively, the people who were tortured were not really hurt......

"Sixteenth, seventeenth, eighteenth, nineteenth, twenty......" The counting little yellow door shouted halfway, and suddenly heard Li Jihe say in a deep voice: "The executioner is tired, change people!" ”

"Father-in-law, we're not tired." Those little yellow doorways with sticks.

"How can you not be tired? I'm tired of looking at it. Li Jihe sneered and said, "If you don't do it again, you will be beaten together!" ”

and there were twenty strong eunuchs...... They all followed Li Jihe back from the northwest and took the torture rod.

The little yellow men had no choice but to step aside.

Among the guys who were lying on the ground and being tortured, someone realized that something was wrong and quickly shouted: "Father-in-law spare his life! ”

Li Jihe was unmoved, and said in a deep voice: "Go on!" ”

The thick rod slammed into the victim's back, without any fancy, and with great power.

In a moment, the tortured eunuchs spurted blood, and there was no scream, for they all fainted in pain. After three or five strokes, blood seeped out through the sackcloth......

When the sound of the rod stopped, the executioner reached out to the back of the victim's neck, got up after a while, and reported: "I accidentally killed ......."
