Chapter 8 Shang Jinming
Shang Jinming is not only the emperor's imperial guard, but he also has another very powerful identity, that is, the commander of the patrol department. The Inspectorate is an important department of the Dajin Empire that is independent of the six central departments, he is not subject to the jurisdiction of his superiors, he is not subject to the supervision of the imperial history, and his chief officer is only one, that is, the Dajin Emperor, that is, he is the emperor's most intimate functional department, and its power is also "the largest". He can supervise the important ministers of the court, and can directly report the results of the investigation to the emperor, without having to fold and ask for a performance, let alone report to the central inspection in advance.
The famous work of this son-in-law in front of him is to inspect the Kyoto garrison corruption case, because this case involves the security of Kyoto and involves a huge amount of embezzlement of 100,000 taels, so the emperor specially ordered that this case should be investigated and handled by the patrol department, and no department is allowed to interfere. The Kyoto garrison had fought on the battlefield for more than ten years, accustomed to life and death, and because he had supported the Golden Emperor to ascend the throne and enjoyed the honor, so at first he refused to recruit a word in the judge, and the judge exhausted his means, but he couldn't get half a useful word, in desperation, the Golden Emperor sent Shang Jinming, the yellow-haired boy, to try it, but he didn't expect that he was also a ruthless character, as soon as he entered the prison door, he didn't give the guard a chance to say half a word, and pulled up his wide calloused hand, The right hand quickly took out the sharp self-defense short blade with a cold light from the waist behind his back, and cut off one of the guard's fingers in one fell swoop. I saw a stream of blood pop out, spraying straight on Shang Jinming's face, flowing from the corner of his eye through the bridge of his tall nose to the corner of his slightly upturned mouth. Before the guard had time to moan, he saw that the middle finger of the other hand was also neatly cut off by Shang Jinming, and the cut was neat without a trace of messiness.
The garrison instantly changed the face of the dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water, and begged Shang Jinming to stop like a dog, "That 100,000 taels!" Before the words came out, I saw that another finger had been cut off, and the guard was almost unconscious, but he kept muttering: "I said, why do you still cut?" The words were so faint that they were almost inaudible.
I saw Shang Jinming casually wiping his short blade, gently leaning into the guard's ear, and touching his ear, "This finger is just telling you not to lie to me." After speaking, he turned his head to his deputy commander and said coldly: "Use cold water to sober up the garrison, record his confession clearly, ask every detail carefully, if the garrison forgets something, cut off another finger and remind the lord." After speaking, he turned around and walked out of the prison, and the blood stains on the cuffs of the gold thread embroidery were still clearly visible.
After this incident, Emperor Jin saw Shang Jinming's ability to do things, and valued him very much, because Emperor Jin needed a talented, loyal and ruthless character like him to be by his side to maintain the supremacy of imperial power for him. Others were even more afraid of Shang Jinming, it was really frightening to have such means at such an age, and those powerful people were even more afraid of offending him, and they would be sued by the emperor and be accused of a trumped-up crime.
As I thought about this, I couldn't help but keep staring at his dark eyes, and I couldn't see the edges, as if anyone would sink in, and I didn't even notice it. "What, do I have flowers on my face?" Shang Jinming asked me, and there seemed to be a light smile on his face, but he couldn't find it in an instant. I came back to my senses in an instant, my face flushed, I quickly lowered my head, my eyes no longer dared to look directly at him, but I felt my eyelashes flickering, and I kept hiding my nervousness.
"This kid is becoming more and more rude, please forgive me." Father took over, and Gong Jin said humbly.
"How can you be worthy of the word Shibo!" When Shang Jinming heard this, he quickly stood up from the mahogany inlaid with gold and carved with towering pines and cypresses, Gong Jin's hands were bent in front of his chest, and he bowed slightly to his father in the hall.
Although this Shang Jinming is powerful, but my family can also be regarded as a noble in everyone's gate, as a father, he really can't afford this "adult", and his father and his father are world friends, even if he acts outside, no matter how much means he has, he will not dare to make a mistake in our Hou Mansion. Thinking of this, a smug smile appeared on the corner of my mouth.
"Dusk Xue, Jin Ming came to visit you, he is your direct boss, and he came to visit his subordinates to give you a long face!" My mother took the words with a smile, glanced at me, and slightly signaled to thank Shang Jinming.
I also knew Shang Jinming with his hands bent in front of his chest, bowed deeply, and said affectionately: "My subordinates have thanked the adults for their love, I really can't bear it, only in the future, I will obey the life of the adults, do my best, and die, and come to repay the adults with death!" After speaking, he showed a naughty smile at him, that smile was honest and innocent.
I thought that these words would make Shang Jinming speechless and embarrassed for him, but he didn't expect him to pretend to be serious and replied: "Okay, wait for your death to repay." Hearing this, my mother couldn't sit still, so she quickly grabbed the words: "Jin Ming, I haven't seen your mother for a while, is she okay?" "Fortunately, my mother often misses the princess, and I was thinking about visiting one day, but I was afraid that there would be a lot of things in the Hou Mansion, so I didn't dare to disturb easily." This Shang Jinming is also considered Gongjin, not only humble but also very flattering, no wonder he is a big celebrity next to the emperor. I thought as I listened to their conversation, saying that they had come to visit me, but it was as if they were more acquainted.
"Jin Ming, you are doing things for the emperor every day, you really give your parents face, but you are all mothers, you know the heart of a mother best, your mother must be looking forward to you entering the door as soon as possible, no matter how much honor the emperor gives you, it is not as good as your safety to make your mother worry." My mother said slowly, and at the same time turned her eyes to me. "You see, how dangerous Twilight Snow is this time, it's almost half a life gone, I'm just a son and a daughter, Twilight City is fighting for our Dajin battlefield, and this daughter can relieve my Si'er's pain. I thought of going to invite the emperor first, but since you are here, I still want to talk to you·····" As she spoke, her mother lifted her sleeve and gently wiped the tears from her eyes.
"Mother, I ······" I was about to say something, but I swallowed it back, and looking at my mother's love for me, I only felt happy, and I didn't know what to say for a while. But I have always been like a boy, so I stay with my mother all day long, embroidering and fluttering butterflies, why is this still me?
"Mother, I actually like to run errands around His Majesty, and I like the feeling of being able to carry a knife in and out of the palace, I ······" I didn't have time to sort out what I wanted to say, so I started talking all at once.
