Han Fei now holds the title of supervising the imperial history, and has received an errand to assist in the investigation of the munitions fire case, but he knows nothing about the progress of the investigation of the munitions fire case. There were still three days left in the time limit given by the emperor to solve the military fire case, and there was no time for him to waste, so he immediately rushed to the headquarters of the joint investigation team set up in the criminal department.

"What is the matter with this adult coming to the Criminal Department......" The guards of the Criminal Department wanted to stop Han Fei, who was about to stop the door, but suddenly saw the holy decree in his hand and hurriedly retreated to the side.

Han Fei stuffed the holy decree and the seal letter of the supervision of the imperial history into his arms and put it away, and continued to walk towards the lobby of the criminal department.

A guard at the entrance of the lobby of the Criminal Department stopped Han Fei and said, "This is the important place of the joint investigation team, what is the matter with your lordship?" ”

Han Fei lit up the holy decree in his arms, and said in a deep voice: "This official is ordered by the saint to concurrently supervise the imperial history and assist in the investigation of the military fire!" ”

Although the guards were surprised that Han Fei was so young, when they saw him show his holy decree, they hurriedly bowed down and said, "My lord, please come in!" ”

The military fire case was jointly investigated by Dali Temple, the Criminal Department, the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Jinyi Mansion, and there was originally a superintendent of the imperial history who participated in the investigation. Han Fei walked into the lobby, glanced at the official who was flipping through the file, and walked to the official in charge to reveal his identity, and the official who was about to be on duty called Han Fei to the supervising imperial history.

Although Han Fei and that person were both supervising the imperial history, his official rank was much larger, and he naturally became the leader. He called the overseer to the side and asked, "Is there any progress in this case?" ”

The superintendent shook his head and said, "Lord Han, there are no clues so far, all the officials are interrogating the prisoners, and these officials here are sorting out the files related to this case, hoping to find useful clues from them!" ”

Han Fei looked at the files piled up on the bookcase in the lobby and said, "All the files are here?" ”

"No, there are files in the lobby that have been preliminarily reviewed, and there are some files that have not been reviewed in the next room, so it's too late to review them today."

Han Fei pondered for a moment and said, "You continue to stay in the lobby, and this official will go and check the files that have not been reviewed, hoping to find a breakthrough as soon as possible!" ”

"The subordinate obeys!"

Han Fei walked to the door of the wing room where the unexamined files were kept, showed the holy decree to the two guards, and walked into the room.

There were many files stacked on a long table in the room, and Han Fei flipped through a few volumes at random, all of which recorded the affairs of officials at all levels related to the munitions warehouse. The records are complicated, not only the corrupt acts of officials, but even the fact that someone entered the green building one day.

Han Fei thought about it for a while, and immediately understood that these files must have been investigated by the spies of Jinyi Mansion or the officers below, so the contents of the records were disorganized. He calmed down, quickly skimmed through dozens of volumes, and found no valuable clues, and was feeling impatient, when he suddenly saw the file of an official surnamed Mei. Because of Mei Hanlin, he was very sensitive to the surname Mei, so he immediately took it apart and took a closer look.

Seeing this, Han Fei was overjoyed.

This official surnamed Mei is none other than Mei Hanlin's son. He worked as a small steward in the munitions depot and even stole a batch of munitions for sale.

"You can't live if you do your own evil, this handle has fallen into the hands of the master, hum!" Han Fei was secretly happy, and suddenly thought of Mei Hanlin's abnormality in the morning, and suddenly understood.

Han Fei hid the file of Mei Hanlin's son in his arms, and continued to flip through the other files until it was almost dark, and then he returned home.

"Master, why did you come back so late today, is there something going on in the yamen?" Wang Ruolan and others said strangely.

Han Fei took out the Holy Decree Seal Letter in his arms, and said with a wry smile: "The Holy Lord has sent me an errand to assist in the investigation of the military fire!" ”

The military fire case caused a stir in the capital, and Wang Ruolan and others naturally knew about it, and they exclaimed: "The master is a Hanlin official, why did you let you investigate the case?" ”

Han Fei pointed to Yin Xin and said, "Didn't the Holy Lord let me take over a supervising imperial history?" ”

"Ah, my lord was granted a real position by the Holy Lord so quickly? The grade of this superintendent is not high, but the power is not small! ”

Han Fei didn't want to explain the joints, so as not to worry the women, so he said: "Let's eat, I'll think about the strategy of solving the case later, and I'll talk about it later!" ”

After dinner, Han Fei first walked into the single courtyard where Ling'er lived and asked, "Ling'er, the formation of the Purple Mansion is going well, right?" ”

Ling'er hurriedly said: "Master Qiqi, the Purple Mansion is currently progressing smoothly, the capital and the surrounding county governments have established strongholds, and even the Jinyi Mansion has also entered the hidden pile, but there are no important clues in the investigation of Mei Hanlin!" ”

"After all, the Purple Mansion was newly built, and it is good to have today's achievements, but you must not be complacent, you must guard against arrogance and rashness, and continue to do a solid job!" Han Fei took out the file of Mei Hanlin's son from his arms, and said: "The direction of investigating the Mei family is wrong, the problem is Mei Hanlin's son, you immediately send someone to deal with it!" ”

Ling'er got the file, flipped through it slightly, and said in surprise: "Master, the slave knows how to do it!" ”

Han Fei came out of Ling'er's room, walked into the study, and thought about the possible cause of the military fire case alone.

The night became thicker and thicker, and on the second watch, a dark shadow quietly flashed into Mei Hanlin's house in the north of the city.

Mei Hanlin has been preoccupied these days, sitting alone in the study sighing, after the military fire case, under the investigation of the case by the imperial court, dozens of implicated officials have been imprisoned. The son worked as a small steward in the munitions warehouse, and suddenly confessed to him two days ago that he had stolen munitions supplies, and if he was found out at this special juncture, it might be a capital crime!

He hated his son's incompetence, but what could he do now? He is such a son, it is impossible to watch him die, for this reason, he locks himself in the study every night, thinking about countermeasures, but unfortunately there is no good way.

Suddenly, the back window of the study creaked, opened without wind, and a black-clothed masked man flashed into the study.

"Who are you? I actually trespassed into the official's study! Mei Hanlin was taken aback and shouted.

The black-clothed masked man sat down on a chair by himself and said lightly: "Master Mei, if you want your son to go to prison, you can shout!" ”

Mei Hanlin's face was even more shocked, and he hurriedly said, "Who are you?" What's the matter with finding this officer? ”

The black-clothed masked man took out the file from his arms, threw it on the table, and said: "This is the evidence of your son's crime of stealing military supplies, and it has not yet been included in the case file of the Criminal Department, as long as you agree to my conditions, this file is yours!" ”

Mei Hanlin hugged the file tightly in his arms, like a priceless treasure, and said hurriedly: "No matter what the conditions, as long as the official can do it, the official will definitely do it!" ”

"Very good, hand over the marriage token between your son and the second miss of the Xue family, and you will write a document of voluntary withdrawal from the marriage!"

"You ......"

Mei Hanlin was stunned, the other party's purpose turned out to be his son's marriage contract, what kind of person is this, could it be that the Xue family wants to regret the marriage? The marriage contract between his son and the Xue family was once something he was proud of, but now it is about his son's life......

Seeing Mei Hanlin stunned, the man in black reprimanded, "Have you decided?" ”

"Ah, this official will do it immediately!"

Concerning the life and death of his son, Mei Hanlin had no choice, so he immediately wrote down the divorce document and handed over the marriage certificate and the family token. He hesitated for a moment and said, "The Xue family also has a marriage certificate......

After confirming that it was correct, the black-clothed masked man took out an envelope from his bosom and threw it on the table, floating out of the back window of the study.

Mei Hanlin opened the envelope and was completely stunned, this is the marriage book written by himself and handed over to the Xue family in Jinling, who else can get this marriage book except for the Xue family? Could it really be that the Xue family deliberately made such a song in order to repent of marriage?
