Chapter 894: Sacrificing the Boss and Completing the Ego
Sun Jiao was helpless.
Now the little emperor's desire to reuse Zhu Hao is becoming more and more obvious.
If Zhu Hao made great contributions to the handling of the Zhang brothers this time, would the emperor be able to justifiably continue to promote Zhu Hao? Let Zhu Hao further become the core force of the imperial court?
In order to prevent Zhu Hao from getting out of control, Sun Jiao at least knew the progress of Zhu Hao's investigation of the Zhang family's brothers, and after returning to the household yamen after the court meeting, he submitted a separate statement of feelings, indicating that his son-in-law wanted to investigate and deal with his relatives, which might provoke irrelevant forces, and he was afraid that someone would obstruct him......
After talking for a long time, the final opinion is...... If you want to add a helper to Zhu Hao, that is, the adjutant who was personally appointed by Sun Jiao to handle the case-Xu Jie.
Xu Jie felt as uncomfortable as eating dog shit.
Originally, his planned plan was to take a long vacation, return to his hometown to marry, and even set the date of departure, but before leaving, the imperial court here issued an order to let him cooperate with Zhu Hao to investigate the case of reselling ordnance by his relatives and brothers.
For Xu Jie, this is more uncomfortable than killing him.
Who am I messing with?
A few days after the entrance examination, I thought that the future was bright, but I was put in charge of the household department, and now everything is found on me?
As the head of the household department, he cooperated with the investigation of the Zhang brothers? That's what I, an official from a Shengdou Xiaomin background, can find out? I don't know what it means to be honored and noble? What's more, they are still two unbeatable relatives, if this is not good, I am afraid that I don't even have to be an official, right?
Xu Jie, with all kinds of helplessness, wanted to go to Zhu Hao, but after walking around, he found that he didn't know where to report at all.
Zhu Hao is nominally a member of the Ministry of Officials, and now he is temporarily appointed as the Lang Zhong of the Criminal Department, but these two yamen are not where Zhu Hao sits, and Zhu Hao will not use the power of the Three Law Divisions and Six Doors to investigate the Zhang family brothers, so he can only call the manpower of the factory guard.
Xu Jie thought to himself, should I go directly to the station of Dongchang Jinyiwei to find Zhu Hao?
Am I crazy?
……
……
Xu Jie didn't know where to find Zhu Hao to accept the errand, so he could only go to Sun Jiao.
Sun Jiao attaches great importance to Xu Jie, and this time let Xu Jie's cooperation in handling the case, more to let Xu Jie's serve as his own eyeliner, and tell himself the content of Zhu Hao's investigation, 1510, Sun Jiao wants to know what Zhu Hao is doing.
"Zisheng, you don't have to worry, the old man will let someone inform Jingdao and let him come to see you. You don't have to be polite when you go, although he is a member of the Criminal Department, but you know that his errand is temporarily appointed, if you have an opinion, you can speak out, or even refute him in person, as long as you do a good job, the old man will guarantee that you will return to the Hanlin Academy."
When Xu Jie heard this, his eyes couldn't help but widen.
Will you take me back to the Hanlin Academy?
Are you sure you have what it takes?
Sun Jiaodao: "The old man's days in the court are not much, he is completely counting the hours, before the old man leaves, His Majesty will sell me some face."
Xu Jie bowed his hand and didn't speak, so he was grateful.
However, Xu Jie's strength was quite unimpressed.
If you have this ability, you can directly help your son-in-law return to the Hanlin Academy, and you still need to let Zhu Jingdao take over the hot potato investigation? You can't even help your own son-in-law, so why should I believe you can help me?
……
……
When Xu Jie met Zhu Hao, it was the second day that Zhu Hao led the investigation.
The two went to Jinyi Weibei Town Fusi together.
After Xu Jie got out of the carriage, he looked around, with a little fear on his face, and asked, "...... here I'm afraid that ordinary people can't come, right?"
Zhu Hao said with a smile: "Jinyi Wei, there are not only terrifying edicts here, but also public courts that pay attention to fairness and justice...... As long as you and I uphold justice, we don't have to worry about what the factory guards do to us......
Xu Jie looked at Zhu Hao with a "yes" look, probably to remind the other party, don't forget that when you were in Yongping Mansion, you were taken down by Jinyiwei for a few days, and what happened to you at that time, we were embarrassed to ask, but it doesn't mean that it doesn't exist.
The two of them walked inside together.
Immediately, someone from the brocade guard came out
came to greet him, but he was not a person with the right to speak, just a pawn.
As the two walked, Zhu Hao asked, "In the past two days, has anyone looked for you?" Asked about the investigation of the case?"
Xu Jie hesitated for a moment and shook his head, as if he had something to hide.
Zhu Hao said: "If there is something, it is best to explain it clearly, so as not to get involved in irrelevant disputes. The affairs of the Marquis of Shouning and the Marquis of Jianchang are of concern to many people in the court."
Xu Jie sighed, "I don't know if it's counted...... In fact, the son of the Yang family, Yang Shi said that he had found someone to notify him, saying that he would deal with it as appropriate and not be too radical. Because he didn't come in person, he couldn't tell clearly, and I didn't know what his intentions were."
Sure enough, everything is indispensable for Yang Shen to mix.
In the past, Yang Shen was in the court, and his father was constrained, and he had some concerns about doing things, and many times he was an errand runner.
But now it's different.
After Yang Tinghe left, even Jiang Mian couldn't directly order him, Yang Shen simply regarded himself as the leader of the younger generation of officials, and he had his shadow in everything.
Yang Shen is equivalent to the "prince" who stayed in the court after Yang Tinghe left, and many people in the civil system wanted to sell his face, and Yang Shen also appeared in various affairs of the court in a posture that he could intervene in anything in the court.
Zhu Hao smiled: "Then he may want to remind you not to get involved too deeply, and will try to help you get out of the case and return to your hometown as soon as possible."
Hearing this, Xu Jie couldn't help but stop and asked expectantly, "When can I go back to my hometown to marry my relatives?"
Zhu Hao patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's as short as one or two days, and as long as three or five days. At the end of this mission, you will definitely have a good time on your way, and you don't have to worry about things in the way!"
Hit the road?
When these words entered Xu Jie's ears, his heart was furious, and he didn't dare to ask any more.
……
……
Zhu Hao, as a messenger sent by the imperial court, was personally appointed by the emperor, and Jinyiwei attached great importance to it.
After Zhu Hao "mediated" with Jin Yiwei's people, Jin Yiwei agreed to Zhu Hao's "arraignment" of the Zhang brothers, but demanded that they must be interrogated in the Zhang brothers' room and under the supervision of Jin Yiwei, and at the same time they must not ask about matters outside the case, and they will be stopped at any time, and ......
All interviews will be recorded for the purpose of reviewing the context of the case.
Zhu Hao all agreed.
Zhu Hao met Zhang Yanling first.
Zhang Yanling has been detained in a courtyard in Fusi, Beizhen, for the past two days, which is a good place with private rooms on all sides, and there are even his concubines living in the wings, and all the meals cooked in the kitchen are bought and carefully cooked by the cooks of the Marquis of Jianchang's mansion.
"Zhu Langzhong, what the Marquis of Jianchang meant, he is not used to the food cooked by the chef here, so he uses the people of the Hou Mansion to be responsible for the food...... Maybe I'm afraid someone will secretly poison me."
On Jinyiwei's side, the person who came to talk to Zhu Hao was the general banner of Jinyiwei from Xingwangfu, surnamed Jane.
After getting Zhu Chen and Luo An's instructions, he deliberately pretended not to know Zhu Hao, all of which were business-like.
It's not that he has to engage in these pretentious things, but Zhu Hao not only brought Xu Jie, but also a warden from the Criminal Department who cooperated in the case, and a small palace person who didn't know his specific identity and refused to reveal his name to supervise together.
This person was obviously sent by the Empress Dowager Zhang, and Zhu Hao knew very well that Zhu Si agreed to the Empress Dowager Zhang and asked her to send a little eunuch to supervise the situation in Fusi in Jinyi Weibei Town, and at the same time to see if the Zhang brothers were abused by Jinyiwei.
Now take a look.
brought a concubine to prison, lived in a separate courtyard, and prepared the meals at home...... Can this be called jail?
Afraid that the little eunuch in the palace didn't understand something, Jinyiwei had to pretend to explain to Zhu Hao, and let him hear it in his heart by the way.
"Very good, you can't treat the two uncles badly, they are the pillars of the Ming Dynasty."
Zhu Hao seems to be very polite to the Zhang brothers.
Xu Jie couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart when he heard this.
You, Zhu Jingdao, are quite good at welcoming the powerful now, do you know that the palace sent someone to deliberately say it to the Empress Dowager Zhang?
……
……
in the room.
Zhang Yanling sat there and described the withering.
On the first day he came, he really didn't feel anything, he just thought that his sister would be able to pick him up soon after she knew the news.
As a result, on the second day of check-in, I felt very bad, I lost my personal freedom, and just having someone to accompany me could not change the reality of being in prison, and it seemed that Empress Dowager Zhang was a little out of his reach, and the emperor seemed to be coming for real.
"Marquis Jianchang, don't come unharmed."
Zhu Hao greeted with a smile.
Zhang Yanling glared at Zhu Hao and said, "The boy surnamed Zhu, you are sincere in entertaining Lao Tzu, right? I don't see what Lao Tzu looks like now? If you don't like it, I'll pull out your tongue!"
Xu Jie saw Zhu Hao's smile slightly embarrassed, and thought, how is it? Slapping the horse's ass on the horse's hooves?
This product is known for being unreasonable in the DPRK, you are here to investigate the case, and you need to have a relationship with him?
Zhu Hao sat down, and then Jinyiwei also sent a special record clerk over, plus the official in charge of recording in the Criminal Department, which means that any details of Zhu Hao's conversation with Zhang Yanling will be recorded in detail.
Zhu Hao said: "Marquis Jianchang, let's make it clear, you sold weapons privately, and the evidence is conclusive......
"How is the evidence conclusive? Where's the evidence?"
Zhang Yanling interrupted Zhu Hao's words, and his tone was not good.
Zhu Hao took out a piece of things and said, "I have many people's confessions here, which prove that the Marquis of Jianchang and the Marquis of Shouning instructed them to do it, and the money obtained, except for a small part of the spoils that they shared, the rest went into the pockets of the two. They also have receipts written by Shou Ninghou himself."
Zhang Yanling scolded: "Does the boss lack heart? Give back a receipt? When someone reports him without incriminating evidence?"
Zhu Hao said: "This is very unfavorable to Your Excellency, although this receipt was not signed by the Marquis of Jianchang, but according to their confessions, the silver was received by the two of them personally, and the Marquis of Jianchang was also present at the time, and more importantly, ...... Many of the implementation matters were personally instructed by you, Marquis Jianchang."
"Falsely, wronged, not credible! A bunch of eggs! ......"
Zhang Yanling wanted to quibble at first, but then he scolded people vigorously.
Zhu Hao said: "The Marquis of Jianchang is a little restless, although the evidence is very unfavorable to the two of them now, but in terms of physical evidence alone, the part about the Marquis of Jianchang is all one-sided, and there is no conclusive evidence, and the Marquis of Jianchang can ......."
Zhang Yanling shouted: "I reported it, it was all done by the boss, and it has nothing to do with me!"
