What happened in the House of Ministers quickly made headlines, and David Mo did not inform anyone about this action. With his absolute authority in the Bauhinia Guard, he directly mobilized the two guards to carry out operations.
Forkan's impeachment recital reached the emperor's court that night, and the officials of the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Industry also grasped this point, and all kinds of impeachment recitals against Mo David were constantly sent to the palace.
Officials in several other ministries were surprisingly silent, offering no support or opposition. The cause of this phenomenon is related to the mentality of several bigwigs.
First of all, David Mo did not inform Robert, Harvey, and Meng Taikun, the three princes, of this matter, which in their eyes was tantamount to acting on their own, so they ignored all the consequences.
The second is the mentality of civil and military officials, for Bauhinia Wei's behavior of arresting officials, everyone actually feels disgusted from the bottom of their hearts. After all, it was only when the power struggle reached a fever pitch that he had no choice but to express his support for the reconstruction of Bauhinia Guard.
For these performances of hundreds of officials, the person concerned has already been mentally prepared in advance, so at this time he will not pay attention to other people's opinions, as long as the emperor does not say anything to stop him, he will not stop at all.
The interrogation of Stafi has been going on all night, and it may be that at first, the official thought that someone would protect him, so he was extremely uncooperative. Later, with David Mo's acquiescence, torture was finally used against him.
The person in charge of the interrogation was obviously a veteran of torture, and when he was tortured, he was directly gagged without giving him any chance to answer questions. He was stunned and whipped him with an iron whip for half an hour.
Already dying, Stafi was washed twice with salt water. This civil official, who was originally righteous and resolute, finally couldn't stand it anymore. I spit out the whole thing in one go.
It turned out that the nobleman did not come forward from beginning to end, and all the relationships were opened by their housekeeper. First of all, they found a Zheng Sipin torture envoy, and after this punishment envoy made suggestions, there was a later case of the owner of the Quande restaurant, and after Stafy accepted the case, he notified the chengguan army to arrest the person, and then handed it over to the presiding judge for conviction.
The whole thing was carried out in accordance with the law, except for Andrew's false accusations. There are no flaws at all. As for Tom's suicide in prison, it was the nobleman's butler who handled it.
After bribing the warden and the cell boss who was guarding the prisoners, the deal was made for a few hundred gold coins. Everyone thinks that there is no risk, after all, there are several ordinary people who are killed by the government council every day. The case of the father of the twin sisters has nothing remarkable at all.
Later, the housekeeper colluded with a presiding judge from Sipin to press the debt of 5,000 gold coins on the three twins, causing the mother to commit suicide, and the two girls were also assigned to serve in the workshop.
However, the person who used the torture had already been instructed to make this matter an ironclad case, so the next step was a severe torture. Let Stafi confess all the dirty things in his life. The results are shocking, this little Zhengliupintong judge. He even accepted bribes amounting to 1.2 million gold coins.
In the office hall of Bauhinia Guard, David Mo flipped through the entire confession, his eyes became colder and colder, these court officials almost exerted the power in their hands to the extreme, and the destruction of their families was commonplace for them.
"For the sake of one's own selfishness, one can dare to do such a thing that loses one's conscience! The phenomenon of public and private use is so serious that the so-called nobles are now disgusted to the bone!"
Having lost his temper, his eyes were fixed on the identity of the mysterious nobleman, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said lightly: "Sure enough, it has a great background, no wonder you dare to play with the life and death of the family." ”
Below the high platform of the hall knelt ten thousand households, who were obviously extremely curious about the identity of the mysterious nobleman, but unfortunately the governor never mentioned his name.
At this time, David Mo was thinking about how to arrest this nobleman, because this nobleman's background is very large, and his position is also extremely critical, if he is not careful, he is likely to cause big trouble.
He got up from his chair, wandered back and forth for two steps, and finally commanded: "The third guard and the fourth guard will go to the government council together, and arrest Hulda and the presiding judge, Hesse!
The two thousand households immediately took the order, and the other thousand households in the house looked hopeful, hoping that the governor would be able to divide the task again, because the events of the day before yesterday had made them completely fall in love with this profession.
Glancing at the rest of the people who were about to move, David Mo smiled slightly, and then said: "The first guard will go to Nancheng Prison and arrest the warden and the head of the third prison! Remember to be fast, be sure not to leak the news!" The thousand households of the first guard hurriedly kowtowed and took orders, and left the main hall with a happy face.
The faces of the remaining seven people became more and more eager, but unfortunately the governor did not continue to give orders, but smiled lightly at them: "You are stationed in the school field during this time, I am afraid that there will be no idle days for a long time." ”
......
An extremely ordinary carriage was parked at the entrance of Archduke Locke's manor, and if it was a normal time, the guards outside the gate would have driven it away. But today, it is unusual, and all of them are respectful and dare not slack off.
Then the gate of the manor slowly opened, and Lockgouli actually went out to greet this guest in person, and it was enough to show that the status of this guest was noble.
I saw an extremely young man walking down from the carriage, with deep and handsome facial features, wearing a white robe, and the whole person looked extremely elegant, as if he was a god who did not eat fireworks in the world.
"Wu Mugong is a rare guest, today I heard the birds in the yard chirping non-stop, it turned out that there were distinguished guests. Lockgooley pulled the man in white very affectionately, his face was kind and bright, and he didn't have the slightest shackle of the Minister of Military Aircraft.
The man in white also laughed heartily twice, and said as he walked with the Grand Duke of Locke, "I am deeply honored to be able to enter your manor, and I have long wanted to come to visit, but I am afraid of disturbing you." ”
Lockgooli shook his head and smiled: "Wu Mugong's words make me honestly afraid, now there is no one busier than you in the imperial capital except for the saint." In the future, I will treat this place as my home, and I will welcome you whenever you want. ”
This man in white, known as Wu Mugong, is David Mo himself. Today, he visited Lockgoorly's mansion precisely to bring down the mysterious nobleman.
Hearing what he said, David Mo didn't say much, and said with a light smile: "Grandpa Guo's words are serious, what can I do as an idle division commander." ”
The two of them had already reached the reception hall after talking, and the butler had been waiting carefully behind them, he had heard of this young adult for a long time, and it was said that he was the first person under several military ministers.
After taking his seat, Lockgoorly smiled and said, "Wu Mu, this is a joke, each of the twelve division commanders of the Royal Forbidden Army is very important, and it is even called the twelve pillars of the empire. ”
Then he glanced at David Mo meaningfully, and quipped: "Besides, you are now also the Minister of the Governor of Bauhinia Guard, I don't know how many people have red eyes in this position." ”
David Mo hurriedly waved his hand slightly, and said with a smile: "This position is like a hot potato now, who would go to such a thing, everyone is a minister in the same court, and they are just thinking about sharing their worries for the saint." ”
Lockgooley smiled faintly and was noncommittal, not wanting to continue to play Tai Chi with him, so he motioned to the butler: "You all go out, there is no one left within ten zhang of the hall, I have something to say to Wu Mugong." ”
The butler hurriedly left the reception hall with a group of servants, and after a moment only the two of them were left in the room. Only then did Lockgouli shift his gaze to David Mo, and said with a light smile: "The recent wind and rain in the city is quite worrying, no one can guess what Wu Mugong is going to do, I heard that the folds on the Holy Imperial Case are already four feet high. ”
Now that he is ready to get straight to the point, David Mo must also reveal some words, so he also smiled lightly: "It's just that I caught a few shrimp soldiers and crab generals, and it's not a storm in the city for the time being, Grandpa Guo is a person who has experienced strong winds and waves, so I shouldn't take this matter to heart." ”
This is an extremely euphemistic remark, but it has already hinted at Lockgoorly: these are only shrimp soldiers and crab generals caught now, and the real big fish are still to come.
Sure enough, hearing his words, Lockgooley was slightly curious: "The master of the fourth grade is just a shrimp soldier and crab general, I don't know what level the real big fish should be?"
David Mo shook his head slightly, snorted, and said with a smile: "Grandpa Guo said that he was joking, what big fish can I catch in this small temple, it's just a small fight......
As soon as the conversation changed, he said with a straight face: "I came to bother today, I still want to ask Grandpa Guo for a favor, I heard that a battle plan of the Ministry of War was lost, I don't know if the news is true?"
Hearing him mention this matter, after a moment of hesitation, Lockgoorly nodded and said: "There is indeed such a thing, Your Majesty has ordered a thorough investigation of this matter, and there is no clue for the time being." ”
The battle plan said that it could bluff others, but David Mo knew that this was definitely an excuse to rebuild the Bauhinia Guard, and the treasury was empty and weak, so how could he take the initiative to fight the Roman Empire.
However, he didn't expose it, but smiled slightly: "If there is a way to help Grandpa Guo find this plan, I wonder if Grandpa Guo will admit its authenticity?"
His words were extremely explicit, this is definitely a big thing, after all, the emperor should also know it in his heart, but if Lockgoulie is willing to admit it, the emperor will not say anything, after all, only Lockgouli can confirm the truth or falsehood.
At this time, Lockgoorly was thinking about another question: if there was really this battle plan, then only those top magnates who could have the right to take it from the military department, could it be that the big fish that David Mo was referring to could be so big?!
His face remained silent, and only after half a sound did he say lightly: "To admit it or not, what good is this matter for me?" (To be continued......)
