The first box, Tang Xiao had already opened it before, and it only took Meng Yan less than ten seconds for the lock to open.

Lifting the lid of the box, revealing the neatly placed gold bricks inside, the golden light was shining, and the emperor's eyes were immediately stunned.

Guo Nu had long known that this first box contained gold bricks, but hearing and seeing were two different things, so many gold bricks were in front of his eyes, which was dazzling enough.

"This, this ......" Zhu Qizhen has either never seen gold, or no matter how much gold he has seen as the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, he has also seen that there is much more gold in his inner treasury than this, but this box is actually full of gold bricks, which really startled him.

"Your Majesty, there are still seven boxes, do you want to open them one by one?" Meng Yan got up and asked.

"Open it, open it, I'm going to see what's in these boxes!" Zhu Qizhen said excitedly.

"Yes." Meng Yan walked to the second box, squatted down, unsealed it, and began to pick the lock with the lockpicking tool he carried with him.

Soon, the second box was opened, Meng Yan opened it and looked at it, he was also shocked, it was all jewelry and jade, full of boxes, jewelry, purple and red, very good-looking.

The value of this box is not below that box of gold.

"Your Majesty, look!"

"This Dongzhu, such a big one, is not often seen in my inner library, there are actually as many as eighteen of them!" Zhu Qizhen came over, glanced at it, picked up an East Pearl, and said in surprise.

"Wechen has never seen such a big pearl?" Meng Yan was surprised, to say that he could be regarded as having a wide range of knowledge. But he really had never seen such a big pearl.

"Your Majesty, such a big Dongzhu, how did you get this Datong Prison Military Mansion?" Guo asked angrily without a trace.

"Guo Aiqing means ......"

"Weichen didn't say that, it's just a little strange!" Guo Nu hurriedly bowed his head and said.

Dongzhu is produced in the Songhua River, Heilongjiang River and Ussuri River basins. Different from Nanzhu, this is a special product of the Jurchen people in eastern Liaodong.

Every year, the Jurchen tribes in Liaodong would present a batch of eastern pearls, which the imperial court would use to make zuò jewelry or directly as a reward to the kings and ministers.

"Your Majesty, these murderers arrested by Weichen are all wearing the clothes of Dongchang Fanzi, and their weapons are all standard weapons made by the imperial court!" Meng Yan quietly stepped forward and whispered.

"What, this case is related to the East Factory?" Zhu Qizhen was taken aback.

Guo Jing, the guard of Datong, is not a eunuch, he takes a group of fans from Dongchang as a personal guard, which is also very normal.

"Wechen doesn't know either. But according to Weichen's speculation, these people are so vicious that they dare to commit murder at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and they don't look like people from Dongchang! Meng Yan said.

Guo Nu was slightly startled, how could this stone speak to Dongchang, but he was also an old man, and he understood Meng Yan's thoughts in a blink of an eye.

If Meng Yan had to say that this was done by the people of Dongchang, then he would be suspected of attacking Dongchang in front of the emperor. Regardless of whether this case is true or not, at least in the emperor's heart. Jin Yiwei is suspected of taking revenge for personal gain.

"It's not from Dongchang, so who is it?"

"Wechen has already locked people in the Imperial Prison and kept them in solitary confinement, as long as the first instance is known." Meng Yan Road.

"Well, since Aiqing has discovered this case, then I will hand over this case to you to investigate. Whenever something happens, you can act cheaply, and be sure to give me a clear answer! Zhu Qizhen said.

"Weichen obeyed the order, however, this case involved the town guard Datong Prison Military Mansion. Wechen was afraid that someone would stop him when he investigated. Meng Yan said.

"I will give you a will, and then give you the status of a messenger, no matter who is involved in this case, you have the right to interrogate." Zhu Qizhen thought for a moment and said.

"Wechen has another request!"

"Speak!"

"Can you drop the Datong prison army back to Beijing to report on their work?"

"This ......" Zhu Qizhen hesitated, at this time he called back to report on his work, and he had to find a reason.

"Didn't the emperor strengthen the military equipment of the border passes, just call the town guards and eunuchs of the border towns back to report on their work, and by the way, learn about the situation of the border passes?" Meng Yan cautiously proposed a building road.

"Well, Meng Aiqing's idea is exactly what I want, then I will order someone to immediately pass on the decree and let the three town guards of Liaodong, Datong, and Xuanfu return to Beijing to report on their work!" Zhu Qizhen nodded.

"Your Majesty, is it too much to summon three town guards and supervisors to report back to Beijing at once?"

"Many, there is no war at the border pass now, what's wrong with letting them go back to Beijing to report on their work, didn't I say it, in the future, the focus of the imperial court's border defense will be in the north, and these three towns will focus on defending Tatar and guarding the important passes of the Beijing Division, and my money will be invested in these three places first!" Zhu Qizhen said.

"Yes!"

"Master, Wang Weng asks to see you!"

"Mr. Wang is here, let him in, will you?" Zhu Qizhen didn't think about it, so he waved his hand and commanded.

"Your Majesty, these boxes?" Meng Yan hurriedly shouted, if Wang Zhen saw this thing, wouldn't everything be exposed.

"Bring it in first!" Zhu Qizhen thought for a while, so many boxes are really an eyesore here, so it is better to put them up first.

Meng Yan and Guo Nu breathed a sigh of relief, as long as they didn't show Wang Zhen, it would be fine.

"The old slave knocks on the emperor!"

"Mr. Wang, excuse me, flat!" Zhu Qizhen still cares and trusts Wang Zhen as always.

"Lord Guo and Lord Xiao Meng are also there?"

Meng Yan sneered in his heart, the old turtle's eyes were not good, and he saw that he and Guo Nu were also in the study.

"Guo Aiqing and Meng Aiqing have something to see me, Mr. Wang, do you also have something to see me?"

"The old slave has transferred a note from the cabinet here, and I think it's a big deal, master, take a look." Wang Zhen took out a fold from his cuff and handed it over.

"Oh, what's the twist, I'll see?" Zhu Qizhen opened the recital, and his face changed slightly, "Is it the impeachment of Guo Jing, the prison guard of Datong?" ”

"Yes, master, the governor of Datong supervised the impeachment of Tang Wei, the governor of Datong, and Guo Jing, the prison of Datong, for eight major crimes, one of his crimes: corruption and perversion of the law......" Wang Zhen obviously memorized the entire content of Tang Wei's recital. Almost word for word.

Meng Yan and Guo Nu glanced at each other, both of them saw a trace of surprise in each other's eyes, this Wang Zhen's speed is fast enough, if they are one step late, then I'm afraid the situation will be different.

This Wang Zhen is also ruthless enough, a strong man has a broken arm. No, Wang Zhen's character, he won't do this, he is protecting Guo Jing.

The charges on this fold cannot be counted, and it is necessary to have substantial evidence to deal with eunuchs like the imperial court who think they have been guarding the border for many years.

If there is no evidence, it is a false accusation, and in turn, as long as it is confirmed that this superintendent Yu Shi Tang Wei is a false accusation. Then Guo Jing is not only fine, but will go further!

Wang Zhen actually has such a mind, he knows how to strike first, and he really underestimated this old turtle.

"Mr. Wang, just now Guo Aiqing and Meng Aiqing showed me something, you also came over to take a look?" Zhu Qizhen got up and said.

"What?" Wang Zhen was stunned, a little unclear.

"Bring it here!"

Eight large boxes were carried over, under Zhu Qizhen's orders. Open them one by one, revealing the true face inside.

"This. This is ......" Seeing the contents of the box, Wang Zhen's eyes were about to fall off.

"Mr. Wang, look at the seal!"

"Guarding the Datong Prison Military Mansion Seal!" Wang Zhen read it out word by word, and immediately felt cold sweat on his spine.

"What's going on, master?"

"Meng Aiqing. Let's explain it to Mr. Wang. Zhu Qizhen said.

"Princess, here's the thing......" Since the emperor singled out the matter, he could only tell the truth.

Even if Wang Zhen knew, it would be useless, and the emperor had already handed over this case to him for investigation. Wang Zhen wants to intervene, unless the emperor takes back his will, isn't this a slap in the face of the emperor?

"How could such a thing happen, master, you hand over this case to the old slave, and the old slave must be close to the truth and give the victim an explanation!" Wang Zhen knelt down and pleaded.

"This ......"

"Your Majesty, Wang Weng wants to assist you in dealing with military affairs, I'm afraid you won't be able to pull away, and when the time comes, I'll hand it over to the people below, I'm afraid that it will drag on for ten days and a half without results, and Wang Weng won't be able to explain to the emperor, right?" Guo said angrily.

"Lord Guo, what do you mean by this, it's just a case, the old slave doesn't need to take that long, and he can find out in three days!" Wang Zhen said angrily.

"But this case has been handed over to our Jinyi Wei for investigation, and the suspect is still suspected of being an insider in the East Factory, does Wang Weng want to let the East Factory investigate and deal with him?" Guo Nu sneered.

"Master, old slave ......"

"Mr. Wang, I have handed over this case to Jinyiwei for investigation!" Zhu Qizhen thought about it for a while, it was really inappropriate for Dongchang to investigate and deal with himself, and if there was a cover-up, it would be even more inappropriate.

What's more, the prison robbery case and the Bai Suxin case, Dongchang has played a disgraceful role, Jin Yiwei has already shown that Xi àn is tolerant enough, and this time is no exception, he believes that Jin Yiwei will deal with it impartially.

"Master......"

"Mr. Wang doesn't need to say it, I can trust Meng Aiqing and Guo Aiqing, especially Meng Aiqing, in the Bai Suxin case, I handed over this case to him, I can rest assured!" Zhu Qizhen said solemnly.

Wang Zhen reluctantly retreated, he lost this game, he didn't expect the emperor to trust Meng Yan so much.

"I have already issued an order to let the eunuchs of Liaodong, Datong and the three towns of Xuanfu return to Beijing to report on their work, Mr. Wang, I will submit the decree to the cabinet for release!"

"The old slave obeys!" Wang Zhen gritted his teeth and agreed.

"Okay, let's all stand down, I'm a little tired, I want to rest for a while!" Zhu Qizhen raised his hand and said.

"Weichen, the old slave retires!"

"Lord Guo is really a good means, he actually gave the old man such a hand!" Coming out of the south study, Wang Zhen said coldly and angrily at Guo.

"If you do too much injustice, you will kill yourself, Wang Weng is better to be more careful!" Guo Nu was not stunned at all, and said-for-tat.

The Manchu Dynasty civil and military, the only one who dared to speak to him like this was Guo Nu, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, who did not eat hard and soft.

"Do you think you can move to me Wang Zhen in this way?"

"Hehe, Princess, do you know what those people say these eight boxes of treasure do?" Meng Yan smiled.

"What?"

"They say it's all about honoring your old man, and it's not the first time." Meng Yan Road.

"What?" Wang Zhen stumbled and almost didn't fall to the ground.
