Beijing, Criminal Department Office.

Wang Qiheng, the left attendant of the Criminal Department, asked Xie Shangshu with a smile, "Look at this case, how will it be judged?" ”

As soon as he left the court this morning, he received the news of the chief matter below, and hurriedly rushed back to the capital.

Shangfeng Criminal Department Shangshu is being ordered to inspect the Son of Heaven in the outer generation, and the Criminal Department is now the highest, involving the Xie family, the first rank of the Zhenguo Gong, the head of the hundred officials, which of the Criminal Department dares to take the lead to deal with this matter? The chief hurriedly sent someone to the summer resort to invite him.

Wang Qiheng also has a headache about this.

It stands to reason that it is a major matter related to scientific research, and it is not too much to punish him severely, and it is not too much to kill his head. But first, Xie Yun was implicated, and he didn't make any profit from it, and he took the initiative to surrender, and second, he sat down, Xie Yun is a member of the Xie family, who dares to implicate the powerful Xie family?

Now that even the people of the capital are shouting for Xie Yun that there is no unwarranted disaster, if he is punished again, will he be angry?

"Qiheng, you are the person in charge of the criminal law, and you are sentenced to a case, why do you still ask the old man, a person from the ministry?" Xie Shangshu twisted his beard, half-joking, half-serious, "Qiheng, you are like this, when the assessment is made at the end of the year, the old man will add a separate criminal law test for you." ”

Little cub, I still want to dig a pit for the old man to jump!

Although he is the head of a hundred officials, the six departments are in charge of each other, if he intervenes in this matter, it is light, it is to cross the line, and the emperor will pursue it, that is, he will overstep his authority and oppress people with power, and the excerpt of the imperial history can bounce people away.

Wang Qiheng smiled awkwardly, "My lord is right, this kind of thing is an internal matter of the lower officials." ”

After pondering for a while, Wang Qiheng spoke again, "According to the criminal law, leaking the Qiuyu exam questions is a major crime to kill the head, but Xie Langzhong was framed by his subordinates, and he took the initiative to surrender, and the subordinate officials reduced the responsibility as appropriate and sentenced him to exile for thousands of miles, how about it?" ”

Wang Qiheng's words hide a lot of wit. Exiled for thousands of miles, without saying where the exile went, let alone when it would leave, there was room for maneuvering.

"Since he is exiled, let him go to the northern frontier where the conditions are the most difficult. The Herong people have been fighting for so many years, and the northern Xinjiang is in ruins, and the old man's nephew has been studying hard for more than ten years, and he can continue to shine for the court and the people. The old man's fifty boards just now were quite heavy, and the doctor said that it would take half a year to raise them. How about the departure date set in half a year? ”

"Listen to your lords." Wang Qiheng bowed humbly.

After Xie Shangshu left, Wang Qiheng scolded in a low voice, "Old fox! ”

For him to dig the pit again and again, not only did he not jump, but also took the opportunity to fight for the greatest benefit for Xie Yun, the sinner.

Half a year later, the year was over, and the war in northern Xinjiang ended. Northern Xinjiang was beaten to tatters, and all kinds of wastes were waiting to be lifted, Xie Yun was a real talent and real learning, went to Northern Xinjiang, and under Xie Sanye, it was not easy to be pardoned for meritorious service, or even reactivated?

Every word, Xie Fox said it well, and the most scathing imperial history didn't want to find faults.

Since the sister-in-law and the prince set up a marriage, this is the first time that Wang Qiheng has confronted the Xie family. Wang Qiheng felt great pressure.

Back at the palace, Wang Qiheng carefully told his father Wang Kun what happened in the summer resort and the criminal department.

"Awesome~" Wang Kun squinted his eyes and sighed, "This kind of song is the most difficult to fight." ”

Wang Kun also felt the heavy pressure.

"Father, isn't it okay for the Wang family not to get involved in this battle for succession?" Wang Qiheng glanced cautiously at his father, Wang Kun.

Wang Kun's sharp gaze swept over the ground, and his eyebrows were cold, "But what did Jin Niang tell you?" ”

The temperament of the eldest son, Wang Kun understands, is definitely not afraid of hardships and difficulties. The eldest son seems to be gentle and sleek, but in fact he is cold, otherwise he will not be able to enter the criminal department. If you ask anyone in this world who can make the eldest son soft-hearted, only his thirteen-year-old sibling.

Wang Qiheng was a little afraid of his father's gaze, but he still chose to say what he thought, "My sister doesn't want to marry the prince, and my son really can't bear to see my sister suffer all her life." ”

"You also said that she was suffering from herself. If you figure it out, you won't feel bitter anymore. Wang Kun's face was cold and hard.

"Tell you the truth, after receiving the decree of marriage, my father consulted with your grandfather, who should take it? Your grandfather picked and chosen, and Jue's Jin Niang was the most suitable. She seems to be weak, but she has a wild temperament, the most flexible, and smart and wise, only such a woman can sit firmly on the throne of the crown princess, and even be the queen of the first palace. ”

Since the Langya Wang clan has decided to enter the game, it is natural to grasp the greatest interests. The position of queen must belong to the daughter of the royal family, and the future prince will inevitably be born from the belly of the daughter of the royal family.

The expression on Wang Qiheng's face calmed down, "My son understands." ”

The happiness of the children is as light as a feather for a family like the Wang family, this is the responsibility that the children who have enjoyed the anointing since they were young must bear, and Wang Qiheng can no longer help his sister.

"After you go back to the summer resort, you have to watch Jinniang, don't let her provoke Xie Xun."

Wang Kun originally disagreed with Wang Jinxiu to go to the summer resort, the queen Fengzhi, he couldn't disobey, and it was impossible to tell the queen that he was afraid that his daughter would be taken crooked by Xie Xun in the summer resort.

Do you want your daughter's reputation to be gone?

Wang Kun has no official position, he doesn't want to appear in front of people for the time being, arouse the attention of the hostile party Wang, he can only stay in the capital and worry about it every day.

Wang Qiheng bowed, "Father, rest assured, my sister is very well-behaved and well-behaved." ”

"Hopefully." Wang Kun sighed lightly, he didn't know how much his eldest son doted on his sister.

As long as Jin Niang doesn't do anything too out of the ordinary, he will turn a blind eye......

When Wang Qiheng returned to the summer resort, he handed the emperor a handbook on the disposal of Xie Yun and others who participated in the leakage of exam questions.

The principals who directly sold the questions were naturally beheaded, copied their homes, and all the families who bought the questions canceled their fame.

"Exile to the North?" The emperor immediately saw through the cattleness and was greatly displeased.

Wang Qiheng bowed down and relayed Xie Shangshu's words word for word. At that time, there were also several directors of the Criminal Department, and he didn't dare to add fuel and vinegar indiscriminately.

The emperor threw the fold in his hand and snorted coldly, "For the people and the court, Xie Shangshu is dozens of years old, but he has done a good job!" I don't know if I can make a seven-step poem or something another day! ”

Xie Shangshu learned this from Xie Xun, and he felt that it was quite vivid, so he kept it in his heart and took it out at the right time.

The emperor was obviously angry, and Wang Qiheng stood bent down, not daring to make a sound.

After a long while, the emperor sulked before he looked at Wang Qiheng again, "Speaking of which, Wang Aiqing, you are from the Langya Wang family, why don't you see you worrying about your sister?" ”

Yes? Wang Qiheng looked inexplicable, as if he didn't understand the meaning of the emperor's words.

The emperor naturally didn't believe that Wang Qiheng was really stupid. The Criminal Department is the most difficult to stay in the Sixth Department, and the prisoners they face every day have status and status, and they are the most difficult, and if one is not handled well, they may stab a hornet's nest and lose their official position.

Wang Qiheng sat firmly in the second position of the Criminal Department at the age of 30, and his treacherous cunning can be seen.

"If the Wang family continues to be quiet like this, I'm afraid that Miss Wang's crown princess position will not be able to be kept." The emperor's words are punned.

This can be interpreted as the fact that the emperor is dissatisfied with the fact that the Wang family has been silent and intends to change the marriage partner, or it can be considered as a reminder to Wang Qiheng that if the Wang family does not make a move, the prince may not be able to maintain his current status......
