"Obey your orders!"

Dali Temple Cheng and several officials of the Criminal Department present, including the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, what can they do at this time, the emperor has already issued an order, can they still resist the decree and disrespect? I could only smile bitterly and accept the order.

I'm afraid I'm going to offend a lot of people next.

After Emperor Ming Ling made the order, he quickly took a group of guards and internal supervisors to leave and return to the palace, but these officials had to stay in Dali Temple to continue to stay up late and work overtime to sort out the case files, and now they are sorted out at night, and they can seize the time to arrest and investigate tomorrow.

In order to hurry up and complete the task, they are afraid that they will have to stay up for several days and nights.

After the case was decided, the news quickly spread out from within Dali Temple, and everyone was talking about it for a while, either spitting and cursing this kind of person deserved, or laughing and discussing that there is such a poisonous woman in this world, etc., of course, the victim's family laughed loudly, shouting that the sky has eyes, and the emperor is sage.

In addition, after hearing the news from outside, some of the subordinate servants hurriedly trotted back to tell their masters who had done the same thing.

That night, not only did many officials of the Dali Temple and the Criminal Department stay up all night to check the case files, but many of the wives of the ministers and nobles were also very busy, busy erasing the evidence and destroying the account books and IOUs.

Although it is not easy to ask for accounts after the IOU is destroyed, it is better than being found to be beheaded for public display.

Qiao Mu didn't have anything to worry about, the original body and her eldest daughter-in-law were both from a family, and they were clear about the law, and they were different from those nobles who paid attention to what kind of woman was not talented or virtuous, so it was naturally impossible to do such a criminal thing, so after listening to Steward Min's story, he just sneered, and put this matter aside.

She still has to be busy with maritime trade, how can there be such a thing as air traffic control that can't affect their family at all. There are too many aspects involved in the matter of maritime trade, from shipbuilding to nautical charts, to weapons, all aspects must be involved, some aspects of arbor have experience before, but it is easy to do, such as shipbuilding and weapons, but some aspects, such as nautical charts, it is really quite embarrassing.

Shipbuilding and weapons are no problem, although there are differences in many aspects in different worlds, but ships and weapons that conform to the laws of conventional physics are still basically universal, as long as the previous experience is taken out, it takes a little more time and money to make it, however, the charts of different worlds can not be universal, the charts, not to mention different worlds, are different eras, that is also different, if the chart is missing, then, it is very likely not to make money by sea trade, but to send money to the sea.

The ship is sinking, but it is not sent to the sea.

In this era, the charts are only available to some big families of maritime trade, and they are not comprehensive, basically only the charts of the routes that their families often take, and this is still the big families of sea trade who don't know how much they have invested and how many lives they have spent to find out and verify.

Now Qiao Mu has only two choices, one is to find a way to explore the outside sea area and draw accurate charts, and the other is to find a way to cooperate with those big families of sea trade and buy sea charts from them, but those big families of sea trade are originally monopolistic business, how can they be willing to cooperate with others, so although there are two choices on the bright side, but in fact Qiao Mu has only one choice, that is, to draw his own charts.

She's worried about it right now.

An old woman in the back house, there are really few people who can use it in her hands, and there are almost few of them, and there are no ones who can get their hands on it.

After all, you can't let a few old ladies help supervise the going to sea and draw the charts. However, this matter will not be solved in a while, and it is estimated that Qiao Mu will still have worries in the future.

……

In the next half month, that is, the half month before the summer harvest, the atmosphere in the entire capital seemed to be very tense, because the people of Dali Temple and the Criminal Department would send troops to the mansion of a certain official or a noble's wife from time to time to arrest him. From the princes to the seven-rank officials, there is no possibility of appeasement for those who are caught with evidence.

But it's also normal.

The kind that really holds the real power, the lady of the house will not have to rely on usury to make money, let alone help some businessmen to take up lawsuits or something, the really powerful kind, some people give them money, there is no need to get involved in these things that are embarrassing to say. Most of the people who are really involved in these things are those nobles who are not very high-ranking officials, or who have been glorious before, and now they are only empty titles.

These existences, Dali Temple and the Criminal Department are not afraid at all, so naturally they will quickly send people to arrest the plagiarist when they catch the evidence, and there is no need to report anything to the above.

The officials and businessmen who were involved by these ladies and old ladies have exceeded thousand, and this matter may continue to be investigated, and continue to spread to other big cities outside the capital, but because these ladies are all emperors, or the queen mother herself sealed, at this time they were arrested for crimes, and the queen mother's face is actually not bright, the emperor is okay, after all, he still has a large amount of silver from the house to appease the injured little heart, mainly because the queen mother's face feels dull, and forcibly orders the emperor to stop continuing to investigate, and can continue to investigate in private, But don't come back on the bright side, if you continue to check like this, her face will be lost.

Think about it, the lady she decreed had so many crimes and so many usury, what would others think, what would ordinary people think, ordinary people would say that she, the queen mother, would not look at people, and reward bad people as good people. This is still good-sounding, and if it is not good, you may be able to secretly scold her for aiding and abusive.

Emperor Ming Ling actually received a lot of official notes during this time, saying that continuing to investigate like this may have a bad impact, and may damage the image of the court and officials, etc., plus he has now entered more than five million taels of silver, plus countless antiques, jewelry, shops and fields and other things, and the Criminal Department and Dali Temple can not always be dragged by this case, so he finally showed great mercy to let the Criminal Department and Dali Temple stop, and after these are done, he will hurry up to handle other cases, so the will will will be reached at once, There were a lot of people crying with joy.

Those officials of the Criminal Department are happy that they finally don't have to stay up late to sort out the case files and offend people, and some people who haven't found it are happy that this matter is finally over for the time being, but fortunately they haven't been found, and they won't dare to continue to do this kind of bad thing in the future, and they will be scared to death.
