PS. Present today's update, by the way, pull a vote for the "starting point" 515 fan festival, everyone has 8 votes, and the vote will also give the starting point coin, kneel and beg everyone to support and appreciate!
"Your Majesty, this is the question of Niu Qifu's confession." Zhao Hu, the chief of the guard, sent an interrogation report to Wu Haoxuan.
"Hmm!" Wu Haoxuan nodded, and then resisted the report. But then his face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
Niu Qifu, before he met Ma Zijie, was just a small major in the logistics department. However, after Niu Qifu's sister-in-law became Ma Zijie's lover, in just three years, Niu Qifu was promoted from a major to a colonel. And is a colonel in charge of the procurement of various materials. And this gave Ma Zijie and others shoddy goods and defrauded the country's property.
In just three years, Ma Zijie and others have defrauded the state of millions of Chinese dollars. Although, those materials they sold to the logistics department did not cause major problems such as deaths. However, this kind of behavior is absolutely intolerable. What's more, this is just the beginning of them. If they wait until Niu Qifu mixes to a higher status, then they will inevitably become even worse. When the time comes, I'm afraid that I will be able to do anything crazy. This would be a great disservice to the Empire.
"Your Majesty, the Security Bureau is still waiting for your reply, how to deal with this matter." Zhao Hu said.
"Let them arrest people. Arrest Ma Zijie and interrogate him to see what hurtful things he has done. Wu Haoxuan said angrily. The last thing he could tolerate was this kind of thing that stretched his black hand into the army. The army is the foundation of the empire, and there must be no problems. And what Ma Zijie and others are doing is clearly destroying the foundation of the empire! Once something goes wrong with the military, how will the empire compete with the Western powers for world supremacy in the future? Wouldn't his efforts over the past ten years be in vain?
"Your Majesty, what about the Queen? Other than that. General Ma Lao and General Ma Zihui, I'm afraid it's not easy to explain. Zhao Hu said.
Ma Zijie is the second brother of Empress Ma Jiahui, and General Ma Lao also has a certain influence in the imperial political circles and the military. And General Ma Zihui was appointed as the head of the Imperial General Logistics Department, with the rank of General of the Imperial Army.
"Leave that alone. No matter who is involved, let me find out. In addition, Ma Zihui, as the minister of the logistics department, tolerated his brother's misconduct in the logistics department, and he, the logistics minister, was also incompetent. From now on, Ma Zihui will be removed from the post of head of the logistics department, and the vice minister will be temporarily deputized. Wu Haoxuan said with a cold face. There is absolutely no room for negotiation on this issue. Ma Zihui was dismissed from his ministerial position. That's a huge warning. If they still dare to obstruct this matter, then don't blame him for turning his face and denying people.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhao Hu saw that Wu Haoxuan was already angry, so he had to stop saying anything and immediately give an order to the people of the Security Bureau.
That night, the deputy director of the Security Bureau led hundreds of gendarmes to Ma's house to arrest people. The Ma family is definitely a first-class big family in the current empire. Old Man Ma himself has a very high status. That's the emperor's brother, and he is also the governor of a province. Admiral Ma Zihui. He is also the head of the Imperial Logistics Department, and he is in a high position.
But now, a group of gendarmes surrounded the Ma family's mansion, which couldn't help but make those people nearby very surprised. You know, this Ma family is a real relative of the emperor. Who would dare to attack them? Except, of course, for the position of emperor.
Ma Zijie probably knew that he was in trouble this time, so he didn't stay at his lover's place and went home directly. He knew that if Wu Haoxuan wanted to move him. He had no choice but to beg the old man and the eldest brother to save his life. Of course, he didn't expect that Wu Haoxuan would really do it.
"Master, something is wrong. There were a lot of soldiers outside the door, fierce and vicious, asking the second master to go out. The housekeeper of the Ma Mansion said in a panic. At this moment, the people of the Ma family were having dinner and chatting in the living room.
"Soldier? Do you want to go out? What's going on? Ma Tengxi was immediately furious.
Ma Zijie's eyes flashed with a hint of panic. It seems that the worst has come.
"Second brother, did you commit something again?" Ma Zihui asked with a cold face. For this troublesome younger brother, he is becoming more and more disdainful. Especially after Ma Tengxi retreated, he has become the real master of this family.
"Zihui, how do you speak? No matter what Zijie says, he is also your younger brother. Even if you make a mistake, you, who is an older brother, should also help you. How can you directly say that your brother's is not. Mrs. Ma said with a slumped face.
"Mother, you can protect him. Someday, he's going to get into a catastrophe. Ma Zihui said dissatisfiedly.
"What catastrophe can be? Jiahui is the queen. You are also an imperial general, does anyone else dare to offend our Ma family? "Mrs. Ma is obviously very satisfied with the current power of the Ma family.
At this time, the deputy director of the Security Bureau had already led people to break into Ma's house. Although, trespassing on Ma's house is a very serious matter, but if Ma Zijie is allowed to escape, His Majesty will blame it, and it will be a felony that he can't afford!
"Who are you? It's so bold to trespass on my Ma's house. Ma Tengxi scolded in a deep voice. The other party broke in with such a swagger, it was simply not to give them face!
"Old Man Ma, I'm really sorry, we were ordered to take away Second Master Ma." The deputy director said with a smile on his face. However, the tone is very resolute.
"Second Master Ma, Niu Qifu has already recruited everything, let's go with us." The deputy director said to Ma Zijie.
"No, I don't know anything. I'm not going anywhere. Ma Zijie said in horror.
"Second Master Ma, I'm afraid I can't help you. You'd better come with us. Otherwise, when the time comes, everyone will not be able to get over their faces. "The deputy director's attitude is very resolute, and he obviously will not let Ma Zijie go because of the status of the Ma family.
"Director Chen, what's going on? Zijie, what did he do? Ma Zihui also had to take it up. After all, his old lady was looking at him pleadingly.
"General Ma, Ma Zijie teamed up with Niu Qifu of the Logistics Department to sell a large number of inferior materials to the Logistics Department to defraud the country's property. Now, Niu Qifu has confessed. So, we're going to bring Ma Zijie back. The deputy director said.
"What? Second brother, you actually did such a thing behind my back, you want to kill me, who is a brother! Ma Zihui was immediately furious. He is the minister of the logistics department, but Ma Zijie is doing these things in the logistics department, isn't this cheating him or what? As the head of the logistics department, he can also be regarded as a high-ranking general of the empire. He also hopes that when he retires in the future, he will be able to mix a marshal! Unexpectedly, he is such a pit brother's younger brother.
"Zijie, did you really do these things?" Ma Tengxi also looked at Ma Zijie with an angry face. Obviously, he was also shocked by what Ma Zijie had done. Today's emperor hates this kind of thing the most, didn't Ma Zijie hit the knife himself?
"Dad, it's none of my business, I've been wronged!" Ma Zijie did not admit it. He knew that if he confessed, it would be irretrievable. 、
"Someone, take him away." The deputy head of the Security Service was clearly not willing to wait any longer. They also had to take Ma Zijie back overnight, and then start the interrogation.
"Director Chen, is there any misunderstanding?" Ma Zihui asked.
"General Ma, there is no misunderstanding. Also, I have one more piece of news for you. Your post as head of the logistics department has been removed from his post by His Majesty the Emperor. Now, the Ministry of Logistics is temporarily under the responsibility of the Deputy Minister. The deputy director said.
"What?" This news is undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for Ma Zihui. He was a powerful logistics minister, and now he was removed from his post. From this, he could feel how angry His Majesty the Emperor was with Ma Zijie.
"You damn thing, you're going to kill us?" Ma Zihui kicked at Ma Zijie and kicked him over.
"Bastard! You rebel! Ma Tengxi was also very angry. Ma Zihui is now the pillar of the Ma family and the main figure of the Ma family. If Ma Zihui is dismissed, the Ma family will undoubtedly be hit hard! Originally, he wanted to intercede for Ma Zijie, but now he wanted to slap him to death.
Only Mrs. Ma was weeping. Although, she loves this little son. But she also knew that Ma Zijie seemed to have really fallen into trouble this time.
"Take it away." As soon as the deputy director gave an order, several military policemen who were like wolves and tigers set up Ma Zijie and walked out.
"Dad, big brother, I was wronged, save me!" Ma Zijie shouted in horror.
Even if he is the second master of Ma who everyone in Yanjing City, but now, his performance is no different from other pustules. Relying on his relationship with the royal family, he can be a little arrogant. However, if the emperor's bottom line is touched, no one can save him. And the army is obviously Wu Haoxuan's reverse scale. Anyone who dares to reach out to the army will be ruthlessly eradicated by him. Even if that person is his brother-in-law.
Ma Erye was taken away by the military police, which immediately caused an uproar in Yanjing, and many people saw this with their own eyes. Everyone knows very well that the people who can move the Ma family, except for the emperor, I am afraid that there will be no other people. Once the emperor wants to move the Ma family, no matter how the Ma family resists, it is useless. Some people who originally deliberately befriended the Ma family also made up their minds to alienate the Ma family. Offended His Majesty the Emperor, the decline of the Ma family is just around the corner! There's no need to trap yourself in it.
