Tao Yuan didn't know what the emperor meant by asking this sentence thoughtlessly, he was stunned, and replied, "Yes." ”

Ye Qianhuai pulled Tao Yuan and walked far to the door, confirming that Wang Siyun on the bed couldn't hear it, and then said: "You can look like the nursing home of Chen Ge's hometown, and then take this immortal lock, go to the major gold shops to inquire one by one, and ask which craftsman is calling it, whether it is for Gu Haiwang." If you find out, find a way to control him and don't let him come into contact with others. ”

After speaking, Ye Tianhuai handed over the golden lock to Tao Yuan.

Hearing the words "Chen Shoufu", Tao Yuan seemed to understand something, and he asked Ye Tianhuai: "Your Majesty said Chen Ge Lao, is it Shoufu Chen Yuansi?" ”

"Yes. Is it difficult? ”

"It's not difficult to just change your appearance."

"That's enough. You don't need to be too ostentatious, those who have a heart will pay attention. Ye Qianhuai's expression sank and said, "What I need is to let Gu Haiwang know that Wang Siyun is in the hands of Chen Ge Lao." What I need is for him to be in a hurry, understand? ”

Ye Qianhuai's voice was peaceful, but it made Tao Yuan feel a chill in his heart.

He lowered his head and said, "My subordinates understand. ”

Ye Tianhuai nodded with satisfaction and said, "Keep an eye on Gu Haiwang and see what he does after getting the news, and report it to me immediately." ”

——

After returning from Wang Siyun in the afternoon, Ye Tianhuai summoned Li Wenqing and asked him to bring the file of Gu Haiwang's case that had been transcribed from Jingzhao Mansion.

The files transcribed by Li Wenqing are very similar, and each arraignment is recorded in detail.

Ye Qianhuai flipped through it quickly, and most of the content was not much different from what she knew.

Gu Haiwang insisted during the arraignment that he went to Heshun Buzhuang to take Wang Siyun away because he received a tip-off that she had dealings with Jinchuan spies, and that he, as the chief of the Gyeonggi Guard, was acting impartially this time, and the only mistake was that he let people run away on the way to escort Wang Siyun.

Gu Haiwang admitted that he was guilty of dereliction of duty, and he denied all the others, and provided the line that suspected Wang Siyun of being a spy.

However, the shopkeeper of Heshun Buzhuang insisted that "Jinchuan spies" was an excuse made up by Gu Haiwang in order to rob his daughter, because when the Wang family shirked the marriage before, Gu Haiwang had put down cruel threats and said that there was a way to take people away, and now what he did just confirmed the previous statement.

Both sides insisted on their own words, and no one refused to let go, but the most critical party, Wang Siyun, disappeared, and the case could not be advanced.

In order to search for Wang Siyun's whereabouts, Jingzhao Mansion issued an order at all the gates of the capital to check the passing pedestrians and vehicles one by one.

But ironically, Eagle Guard was Wang Siyun found in a suburban courtyard outside the capital.

It can be seen from this that in the defense of the capital, Gu Haiwang is indeed with his hands and eyes, and Jingzhao Mansion can't stop him at all.

Ye Tianhuai looked at the Q&A record on the case file, and his heart became more and more annoyed.

Gu Haiwang is the suspect, but there is no fear in his confession, but there is a sense of arrogance and impatience between the lines, it is like saying: You can't do anything to me, why don't you let me go quickly?

Ye Tianhuai couldn't help but sneer, in this regard, Gu Haiwang was quite fatherly. In the eyes of both father and son, the laws of Dajing are useless, and the Ministry of Justice is like the back garden of their home, just a plaything in the palm of their hand.

Ye Tianhuai knew that the Gu family could have such confidence, in the final analysis, because the Criminal Department was in Gu Shihai's control.

From the beginning of the trial of the three divisions, to the later Chunqiu fraud case and the case of Qin Baozhu's lynching to death, and then to the current case of Gu Haiwang forcibly robbing the people's daughter, the Criminal Department is like a boulder blocking the road that Ye Tianhuai must pass, unable to bypass or move.

No matter how outrageous the case is, when it comes to the Criminal Department, it can be turned into a big and a small matter, and in the end, it will not be resolved.

No matter how loud the thunder is here, when it is implemented and punished by the Criminal Department, it will become a light drizzle.

Perfunctory.

"Li Wenqing, if it is true that Gu Shihai forcibly occupied Wang Siyun and raped the girl, what punishment will he be punished according to the law?"

"According to the law, he should be dismissed from his official position and exiled for five hundred miles. In serious cases, they may be hanged. ”

"With such a heavy punishment, do you say Gu Haiwang is afraid?" Ye Qianhuai asked.

Li Wenqing sighed lightly and said, "Your Majesty doesn't know, this is not the first time Gu Changshi has committed a crime, and it is not the first time that he has been accused of going to the yamen. In the past three years, Yushitai has participated in six supervision and review. But in these cases, large and small, he was able to get out of the whole body without danger every time. Probably because of these experiences, Gu Changshi didn't care much about punishment. ”

Ye Tianhuai frowned: "He committed so many cases? Are they all robbing people's daughters? ”

Li Wenqing replied: "There are those who cause trouble on the street and kill people by mistake, there are those who forcibly occupy private property in people's land, and there are also those like this one. ”

Ye Tianhuai was a little surprised, she thought that Gu Haiwang was just a demon in the middle of lust, but she didn't expect him to be a well-rounded outlaw fanatic.

She pondered, "Tomorrow you will bring all the files of his cases to me for me to see." ”

Li Wenqing paused, and did not agree, because he was embarrassed: "Whether these cases were received by Jingzhao Mansion or the local government department, they were finally handed over to the Criminal Department for processing, so the case files are all retained in the Criminal Department, and I am afraid that I will not be able to get the rank of Weichen." However, these cases have been recorded in the Imperial History Tower, and if Your Majesty wants to know about them, these brief descriptions can be used by Wei Chen to see with Your Majesty tomorrow. ”

"The Imperial Historical Observatory has the authority to supervise the Criminal Department, and as the Imperial Historian, you can't even consult the case files of these old cases?" This is beyond Ye Tianhuai's cognition.

"Gu Changshi's case is a high-level secret file in the archives of the Criminal Department, and only relevant officials above the second grade have permission to access it. Of course, if it is accessed in the name of His Majesty, it can be retrieved at any time. Li Wenqing explained.

Ye Qianhuai shook his head and said, "Tomorrow, you can first bring me a brief description of the Imperial Historical Observatory." ”

She didn't want to startle the snake yet. What's more, with Ye Qianhuai's experience in dealing with Du Jing, even if she proposed to consult Gu Haiwang's case file, Du Jing would definitely have various reasons to delay it again and again.

After Li Wenqing retreated, Ye Tianhuai sat in front of the chessboard and set up the chess game.

This sitting is a few hours.

She would play for a moment, then stop and look at the chessboard for a moment.

She couldn't calm down. Gu Shihai, Gu Haiwang, Wang Siyun, Qin Baozhu, Du Zhengen, Du Jing, Qian Deliang, these people lingered in her mind.

Until the middle of the chess game, Ye Tianhuai frowned as he looked at the chaos of the fight on the chessboard.

She suddenly understood something.

As long as the Criminal Department is still in Gu Shihai's hands, then even if she has a mountain of ironclad evidence, it will be difficult for Du Zhengen and Gu Haiwang to get the punishment they deserve.

However, in this confusing chess game that is not yet clear, Du Jing, the secretary of the Criminal Department, has always been just an outsider.

What can be done to pull him into the game?
