Ye Tianhuai looked at the ginseng, paused for a while, and said, "Du Qing has a heart." ”

After she said this, Li Baoquan stepped forward to take the wooden box in Du Jing's hand, and then retreated.

"I see you still have some volumes, what are they?" Ye Qianhuai asked.

Du Jing picked up those files from the case table and said, "Back to Your Majesty, these are the relevant case files of the Jinchuan spies who have been arrested in Beijing in the past two years. ”

"Oh? What are you doing with this for me? ”

"Your Majesty, that's right. These case files were obtained by Jingzhao Prefecture in an application to the Criminal Department, saying that they were needed to collect evidence for the purpose of investigating Gu Haiwang's case. It's just that this kind of case file involves a very high level of confidentiality, and Wechen doesn't dare to make decisions on his own. However, Gu Haiwang's case was handed over to Jingzhao Mansion for trial by His Majesty's decree, so Wei Chen wanted to bring these case files to His Majesty first, and His Majesty would decide. ”

After speaking, Du Jing respectfully sent the thick stack of case files to Ye Tianhuai.

Ye Tianhuai looked at the large pile of case files in front of him, and said in his heart: I finally got to the point.

She picked up the top case file and looked at it, the case file compiled by the Criminal Department was very professional, recording all the confessions and evidence descriptions in detail, and there were 100 signed confessions in one case alone.

Ye Qianhuai frowned slightly, and then raised his eyes to look at the remaining case files that Du Jing was holding, the stack of case files was so high that he buried his head behind the volume.

Ye Tianhuai couldn't help but twitch a little at the corner of his eyes.

No wonder there are so many.

If she had read them all, it would have taken a month.

"All these case files Jingzhao Mansion want?" Ye Qianhuai asked.

"Jingzhao Mansion needs to check the connection between Wang Siyun and Jinchuan's spies according to Gu Haiwang's confession, and then interrogate him, there is no relevant information to screen, so all the case files need to be retrieved." Du Jing replied without leaking.

"Then what if the Criminal Department is allowed to participate in the review and cooperate with the Jingzhao Mansion Yin trial?" Ye Qianhuai asked.

Du Jing paused for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, most of this kind of cases involving conspiracies in neighboring countries involve military and political secrets, and with a rank like Jingzhao Mansion Yin, you can't listen to them. ”

"What does Du Qing mean is that the Criminal Department can't assist in the investigation of this case?" Ye Tianhuai's voice was a little colder.

Du Jing was pressed by her might, his head lowered slightly, but he did not retreat in words, and said, "Yes." ”

Ye Qianhuai's expression sank, and he closed the case file in his hand with a "snap".

"Du Qing, you are the secretary of the Criminal Department, tell me what you think of Gu Haiwang's case." Ye Tianhuai asked, his tone calm.

"The main culprit in this case, Gu Haiwang, is an important member of the three grades, and it involves national defense secrets, so it should be handled by the Criminal Department, and it is better for Jingzhao Mansion to assist in the trial." Du Jing replied.

"What do you think of Gu Haiwang being accused of robbing people's daughters?"

Du Jing pondered the wording and replied: "Your Majesty, Weichen did not participate in the trial of this case, and there is no basis for empty words, and it is inconclusive. ”

Du Jing had originally worked all the way up from the criminal name of Jingzhao Mansion, and he was very familiar with the daily operation of Jingzhao Mansion and the Criminal Department, as well as the various rules in the First Section of Criminal Law, and it was very difficult to find loopholes from his mouth.

Ye Qianhuai recently took the time to study his resume, and knew that she was not able to theorize in terms of the coordination between the ministry and the case itself, so she went directly to the conclusion: "All in all, Du Qing thinks that it is more appropriate for this case to be transferred by Jingzhao Mansion to the Criminal Department for trial." ”

"Yes." Du Jing stood up straight, still holding the stack of case files in his hand, his face expressionless.

There was an awkward silence between the two of them, as if they were waiting for the other to let go first.

After a long while, Ye Qianhuai suddenly smiled and said, "To be honest, I also know that it is more appropriate for this case to be handed over to the Criminal Department for trial. ”

When Du Jing heard this, he raised his eyes and looked at Ye Tianhuai, with some joy in his eyes that could not be concealed.

Ye Tianhuai's words changed sharply, and he said seriously: "I'm just worried that you can't be busy. ”

Du Jing was stunned.

"The case tried by the three divisions has not yet been concluded, and Concubine Lan's death has not yet been explained, these two major cases involve many officials, and recently the Criminal Department has lost Qian Deliang, the squire, and handed over the case of Gu Haiwang to you, I am afraid that you will not be able to keep busy, and several cases will be delayed, and the gains will outweigh the losses."

After Ye Tianhuai finished speaking, he looked at Du Jing meaningfully.

Du Jing was so smart that he immediately heard the meaning of her words.

"The case tried by the three divisions has been decided, and all the people involved in the case are under trial, and the trial will be completed this month." He paused, and then said, "Regarding Concubine Lan's death, it was caused by the abuse of lynching by the Shen Criminal Division, and the facts of the case have been generally clear, but several criminals from the Shen Criminal Division have been silenced, and it will take some time to collect evidence." ”

He was serious, as if it were true.

Ye Tianhuai's expression changed greatly, she slammed the table, got up and said angrily: "Are you blind or stupid?" The Shen Penal Division doesn't even have a sword, and you told Concubine Zhenlan that the sword in her chest was stabbed by someone from the Shen Penal Division? ”

Ye Tianhuai was tall, she stood up suddenly, which made Du Jing startled, he was about to open his mouth to defend himself, but he heard Ye Tianhuai continue: "Concubine Lan is my first concubine and my only concubine, if you can't understand her murder, I will investigate it myself!" ”

Her words were very serious, and Du Jing hurriedly put down the case file in his hand, knelt down and said, "Your Majesty is angry." ”

Ye Tianhuai looked at his kneeling figure on the ground for a long time, then he lost some breath, sat down, and asked, "Du Jing, you have been a torturer for so many years, have you seen the methods of torture with your own eyes?" ”

Du Jing hesitated and said, "Wechen has seen it." ”

His voice was a little hoarse.

"You've seen it with your own eyes, and you should know why I'm angry." After Ye Qianhuai finished speaking, he leaned back on the back of the chair and stared at him coldly.

Du Jing hung his head and said, "Your Majesty, it is impossible to determine the truth based on the murder weapon alone. What is the case and who killed Concubine Lan, Weichen will definitely find out the truth to comfort Concubine Lan's spirit in the sky. ”

"The Penal Division may use torture, but they don't get the information they want, and they won't kill people rashly." Ye Tianhuai looked at Du Jing, who was about to speak again, interrupted him, and said, "You don't have to make up any more stories with me, I know why you came here today." ”

Seeing that Ye Tianhuai took the initiative to provoke, Du Jing also restrained his respectful appearance, and the light of the yin owl flashed in his eyes. He looked at Ye Qianhuai, like an eagle holding its prey.

Ye Tianhuai's face was fearless, and she said unhurriedly: "But how can there be so many satisfactory things in this world." The truth that fish and bear's paws cannot be both, Du Shangshu must also know. ”

After speaking, she took out Gu Haiwang's longevity lock from her waist and slowly placed it on the bookcase between the two.
