Chapter 971: Cobwebs
Liu Xitian went out with a sigh of anger, he only wore a thin set of official robes in the hot brazier, warm as spring, and now his clothes have not been changed, and he has not even worn a big coat, so he rushed out in a hurry, and when he rode all the way to the yamen of the criminal department, he was blown cold by the cold wind, and shivered.
By the time the entourage reported in, Chen Dong and Sun Yuxuan of the Criminal Department greeted them out of the door, Liu Yitian was almost freezing. Chen Dong and Sun Yuxuan ignored the students who were shouting in front of the door, the crying criminals, and the family members, and just asked Liu Yitian with a smile on their faces.
In fact, the family members of those suspects were all instigated by others, but in fact they did not have the courage to run into the officials, not to mention that there were more than 20 military academy officers who were murderously guarding the side of several criminal department officials, so they only shouted grievances on the sidelines.
As for the students of Guozijian and Taixue, although the crowd was turbulent, most of them were deceived by others, and only a few leaders knew the inside story, but because they had already been instructed, they had to wait for the priest and others to carry the statue of the master and then rush to the yamen, so they did not move.
Liu Yutian said with a calm face: "Since the two electors said that they had received the complaint, they would strictly investigate the case of the brawl between the bars and the bribery and connivance of officials, and the officials did not know what was going on, and they didn't want to ask, but the two electors sent people to arrest the young Yin Qi Anrun and Sima Zhao Haochen of the government, as well as the county marquis Wang Shixiu, the prince of the country, Li Jianbai and others, what is the reason for this?" Could it be that all these officials and gentry in this mansion have anything to do with Ba Shangcao Yun? ”
Chen Dong was surprised and said, "Why did the Liufu Order say this? The official received a report, saying that there was a gang of Caofula in Ba, and there was a brawl, which caused the caoyun to stop and many people were injured. Now only Gao Senjun, Wu County Lieutenant, and Lang County Lieutenant involved in the case are in the Yamen of the Criminal Department. And he has not been subjected to any abuse, as for the officials mentioned by the Liufu Order, they are not the ones who are locked by this ya. ”
Liu Yitian was stunned for a moment, and said suspiciously: "The person was really not caught by Chen Xuanlang?" ”
Chen Dong said unhappily: "Liufu Order, is it necessary for Chen to hide and speak in vain?" ”
Sun Yuxuan stroked his beard and smiled: "Liufu Ling is really reckless this time, you see in front of our yamen, there are crowds of people and the crowd is angry, don't say that so many officials are in and out, even if we only bring in one person." Can you hide it from everyone's eyes? ”
Liu Xuantian said suddenly: "Sun Xuanlang means that the official lied?" ”
Sun Yuxuan was not annoyed, and said with a slight smile: "Why don't you go to Yushitai to take a look, it's not just our criminal department that has the right to take people in Chang'an City!" ”
Liu Yitian woke up suddenly, not bad! There is also a Goshidai. Could it be that those people were arrested by the Imperial Historical Tower? Liu Yitian immediately arched his hand to them and said, "Two candidates, Liu Mou will go to Yushitai and his party." If there is an offense against the two. Apologies later! ”
Liu Yutian said that he would turn around and leave, hurriedly pulled the saddle and got on the horse, and galloped towards the Yushitai. He was wearing very little, and after this toss, his face turned blue from the cold, and he was delayed in front of the yamen of the criminal department for a while. The anger in his heart gradually subsided, and his reason gradually recovered.
If the Imperial Historical Observatory takes people, it is not as simple as the Criminal Department taking people, and the Imperial Historical Observatory will not intervene in ordinary criminal or civil cases. As long as they make a move, it must be related to the official's violation of law and discipline, the more Liu Yitian thinks about it, the more suspicious he becomes, and when he arrives at the Yushitai, he has completely lost the aggressive attitude when he rushed to the criminal department.
"Hu doesn't know that the government order has arrived, and he has lost his welcome, haha, Liufu order, please!"
When Hu Yuanli heard the news, he greeted the Yushitai, smiled before speaking, and politely let Liu Yitian into the second hall of the Yushitai, and after the two of them sat down, Liu Yitian immediately explained to him the intention, but there was no interrogation in the tone, and his words were much more cautious.
Hu Yuanli listened to him, and said with a sad face: "Yes, the person was indeed taken by this official, but this case is still being tried, and the relevant facts of the case should not be shown to others, but ......"
Hu Yuanli smiled at Liu Yitian, and said: "As a pastor of Chang'an and a minister of heaven, the government order is naturally not in this case. Someone! ”
Hu Yuanli commanded, and a small official immediately walked in front of him and bowed solemnly. Hu Yuanli said: "Take the files that have been sorted out!" ”
After a while, a stack of files was piled up in front of Liu Xiantian, Liu Xiantian opened the file and took a closer look, the more he looked at it, the more shocked he became, he had been trekking all the way, his body was a little stiff, and then his fingers seemed to be stiffer and stiffer, and the file couldn't open a page after turning it several times.
On this file, all the crimes committed by these arrested gentry were all kinds of crimes, such as embezzlement, bribery, such as the county marquis Wang Shixiu's bullying and occupying people's land, and so on.
Such detailed information can never be interrogated and sorted out just after these officials are locked and brought to justice, that is to say, these things have been available for a long time, and it is not until today that they are officially used as evidence to lock up those officials and gentry for interrogation.
How many people and how much effort will it take to complete these files alone? And the officials of Yushitai have only been in Chang'an for more than a month, and they have been accompanying the Criminal Department for more than a month to carry out public security rectification, when did they find out about these things?
They came from Luoyang, and they had no foundation in Chang'an, even if they didn't do anything during this time, they didn't necessarily get such detailed and conclusive evidence to investigate these people's cases with great fanfare, unless there was some local person with all their hands and eyes to fully assist, who was this person?
The most important thing is that they are so aggressive, could it be the meaning of the imperial court? weishenme I didn't hear the wind beforehand, can it ...... The court is suspicious of me?

Liu Yitian returned from Yushitai in vain, and Liu Yitian was vague and never gave a clear answer to the questions of the relatives of Shaoyin Qi Anrun, Gao Jingqian, who joined the army, and Wang Shixiu, the county marquis.
His mind at the moment is not on these people at all, what he is anxious to know is whether such a huge turmoil in Chang'an officialdom is due to the order of the Son of Heaven, why as a confidant of the Son of Heaven, he didn't hear any rumors in advance, whether he has lost the trust of the Son of Heaven. Therefore, after Liu Yitian returned to the mansion, he immediately sent his confidants and family members to Luoyang to wait for an opportunity to inquire about the news.
Many officials pinned their hopes on Liu Yitian, but Liu Yitian did nothing. After returning from the Imperial Historical Tower, he sat in the palace and no longer ignored this matter, and the families of the officials were greatly disappointed, but whether they were officials, or the relatives of the emperor who had hereditary titles, they all had a lot of connections in their hands, and he was not the only one who could be entrusted.
Liu Yitian's road could not be taken, in order to rescue their relatives, everyone crossed the sea to show their magical powers, and entrusted others everywhere. The network of relationships they have built over the years has played a huge role, and the ...... of families, wealthy families, national relatives, magnates, and officials have plunged the entire Chang'an into a storm.
Some people with good hands and eyes have even sent people to Luoyang to carry out activities, using their connections in Beijing to directly attack and impeach the two Qincha of the Criminal Department and the Yushitai. Wu Yizong naturally would not let go of this good opportunity, and he secretly fanned the flames. On the other hand, he sent people back to Luoyang. The details of the situation inside are known to Wu Sansi.
Chang'an's families, wealthy families, relatives, magnates, officials, and gentry are like intersections, intertwined together to form a huge web, and there are many spiders of all sizes entrenched in this big web, Xingyang Zheng Yu is a spider entrenched on it, and he has been staring at the spider surnamed Yang who is squatting in the other corner of the web. But the spider remained motionless.
Now the whole cobweb suddenly fluctuated violently, and the fluctuation was so fierce that it seemed to tear the whole web to pieces, Zheng Yu was panicked and dazed, and he saw everyone jumping up and down. Only the man he had been staring at was still motionless.
But there are all kinds of signs that this turmoil seems to be inseparable from that person, and Zheng Yu does not know how things will develop, nor what exactly that person intends to do, and what role that person has played in this turmoil.
Zheng Yu originally wanted to keep an eye on that person, I didn't move if there was an enemy, and I didn't move, and I was as quiet as a virgin and moved like a rabbit, but this net was fluctuating more and more intensely, and he couldn't stop moving, because someone had already entrusted him to him. At the same time, countless people in Chang'an officialdom were affected and implicated, many of these people were cultivated and supported by the family, if these people were lost, the hard work of the major families in Chang'an for many years would be empty, and he had to find a way to stop this turmoil!
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Luoyang, Wu Sansi got Wu Yizong's secret report such as a treasure, this time for the emperor to move the capital to the advance of Chang'an's court officials divided into two factions, the law division Yamen is obviously not a person from the Wu family, if he can take advantage of this reason to bring down the people of the criminal department and the imperial history platform, the martial arts Shili can monopolize Chang'an.
In the past, the Wu family only paid attention to running Luoyang, and his vision was a little short-sighted, but who would have thought that Wu Zetian would actually come up with such a plan as moving the capital to draw salaries from the bottom of the kettle? Now, if they can take advantage of this opportunity, they can get back the lead. However, how could Yang Fan, who had been prepared, and Chen Dong, who had been prepared, be completely defenseless? They stir up trouble in Chang'an, will they not consider possible interference from Luoyang?
What's more, the reason why Wu Zetian decided to move the capital, in addition to the threat of flooding, was partly because she had the idea of returning to her roots after her old age, and wanted to return to Chang'an City, where she had lived for most of her life, but there was no doubt that her main purpose was to ensure that the Wu and Li families could reach a balance. For this purpose, will she sit back and watch the Wu clan take Chang'an into her hands again?
Luoyang, Lichun Terrace.
Wu Zetian squinted his presbyopia and looked at Yang Fan's secret report seriously, in which Yang Fan elaborated on the situation he had inspected in Chang'an, calculated the annual grain consumption in Chang'an after the emperor moved westward and the amount of water that needed to be transported from other places except for the self-sufficiency in the Guanzhong region, and then calculated the current transportation capacity.
There are no flowery rhetoric in his recitals, but there is something to say and very convincing. After Yang Fan Zuihou put forward the proposal of dredging the river and ensuring the Cao Yun, he focused on the situation of the formation of the Cao Shang Ding Fu Gang and the serious internal friction, and proposed that the official come forward to integrate the Cao Yun and reduce the internal friction, and also mentioned the serious exploitation of officials in various places along the Cao Yun and the fact that a large number of officials profited from it, and suggested that the imperial court should strictly rectify it.
Wu Zetian watched the secret performance, and said to Fu Qingqing, who was standing in front of him: "I am about to move westward, the matter of Cao Liang is very important, Yang Fan's performance must be solved immediately, Wan'er, call her to see me quickly." ”
Fu Qingqing hesitated for a moment and said, "To be made...... Waiting for her ......"
Wu Zetian raised his eyebrows and said unhappily: "Swallow and spit out!" What's wrong with her? ”
P: In the early hours of the morning, I sincerely ask for recommended tickets and monthly passes!. (To be continued......)
