Chapter 102: The Trial of the Noon Gate

"Passing on His Majesty's will, Zheng Shiyuan, the director of the Ministry of Industry, said that although there is no evidence, the construction of Huimin Pharmacy cost double the price, and it must be checked immediately."

"The Criminal Department, Dali Temple, and Yushitai supervise each other, and jointly try the case at Noonmen, and the relevant personnel will be present immediately, and the matter must be investigated clearly, and no one can be missed."

Zheng Xiong, who took over the will, looked at Zheng Shiyuan, and his eyes seemed to say: You can really make trouble.

Zheng Shiyuan, who had an innocent face, looked at Zheng Xiong, stared at each other with big eyes.

The system of "triage by three divisions" was established in the 17th year of Hongwu in the early Ming Dynasty (1384), when the emperor Zhu Yuanzhang ordered the three legal divisions to jointly handle major cases for the purpose of strengthening the autocratic imperial power and reducing the number of unjust prisons.

The three divisions in the "three divisions of the trial" refer to the Criminal Department, Dali Temple, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate. The Criminal Department is a judicial organ at the central level, and it is the only one of the six ministries with judicial power. Dali Temple is the central government of the Ming Dynasty responsible for reviewing the criminal department and the institutions in Beijing to try cases, Dali Temple Qing is the highest official in charge of criminal prisons in the country; The Imperial Procuratorate is governed by the Imperial Historical Observatory, which is mainly responsible for supervision and impeachment.

I don't know what Lao Zhu thinks about advancing the system of triage of the three divisions, it may be that he feels that it is necessary to rectify the rampant corruption of corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and he does not want to wronged a good person, nor does he want to let go of a bad person, or use this to warn everyone.

Anyway, Zheng Xiong, as the key figure in it, couldn't avoid it if he wanted to, so Zheng Xiong and Zheng Shiyuan immediately set off for the noon gate.

At noon, a high platform has been set up, and all the people involved in the case have arrived, and the big man sitting on the stage is the criminal department, Dali Temple, and Yushitai.

Sledgehammer, Chen Dadong and the uncle in charge saw this posture, knelt aside, trembling.

The director of the Ministry of Industry's Camp Department stood aside with a pale face, including Tang Zonglu, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, who had already arrived.

The cadres who rushed into the Huimin Pharmacy waited at the gate of Ying Tianfu, and they didn't think there was anything wrong, according to the practice of the slaves in the Xungui family next door, they followed the same example, their attitude was arrogant, and they didn't say a word.

I still thought that there was nothing big about it, but the relationship between the top was the sixth grade, and what was the matter with a nine-grade function.

Until the holy decree was issued, everyone immediately corrected their attitudes, they were all part-time workers, and there was no need to work hard for this matter.

The bamboo tube poured the beans and generally offered the sledgehammer out, and it happened that the sledgehammer was also in the queue, trembling and talking about what happened.

"The eldest brother in charge gave a reward, and asked the small one to arrange someone to monitor Zheng Shiyuan, and then caused an accident to kill the person, and the small one had no choice, in order to eat with a mouthful, please ask the adult to be gracious."

After saying that, they cried bitterly, and the masses who didn't know the truth thought that they were just hard-working people who were running around for life.

"There are no comrades."

"There is also the eldest brother's sister-in-law, the director of the Ministry of Industry, and the younger one was ordered by the director of the Ministry of Industry at that time to send someone to monitor Zheng Shiyuan."

Lao Zhu's will has been issued, Zheng Yiyan asked about it, and then ordered his subordinates to go to arrest the uncle who was in charge of the Ministry of Industry.

As for the head of the Ministry of Industry's Camp and Renovation Department, there is no need to worry about Lao Zhu's will.

Ying Tianfu, as the superior unit of Huimin Pharmacy, Yin Zheng Yiyan can't run, so he can only try his best to remedy it and do things beautifully.

After Zheng Yiyan's urging, a group of people rushed to the front of Zheng Xiong in a daze and arrived at the noon gate.

So the current scene is that Zheng Xiong and Zheng Shiyuan are the last to arrive.

When the three bosses on the stage saw that everyone was there, they opened their mouths to ask.

"Where is Zheng Ti of Huimin Pharmacy? According to His Majesty's will, the cost of the pharmacy at that time was great. ”

Zheng Xiong stepped forward and spoke.

"The total amount used by the lower officials at that time was 8,800 guan."

"How do you remember it so clearly?"

"The lower official has a good memory, he was born, he can't help it."

was choked inexplicably, so Zheng Xiong pretended to be a wave, and the three bigwigs had nothing to say about Zheng Xiong's explanation, and what Zheng Xiong did in the pharmacy really only made such an explanation work.

Who isn't a child prodigy! Lao Zhu, who is not famous in this era, recognizes who you are, and the basic operation of recommendation.

"Didn't you have any doubts at the time?"

"Xiaguan didn't listen to things outside the window, he only read the sage books, he didn't understand these things, Xiaguan also informed Fu Yin of this matter at that time, Fu Yin didn't question it, Xia Guan saw that there was no problem, so he agreed to the price."

offended Fu Yin and was targeted by Lao Zhu, Zheng Xiong decisively chose the former and sold Zheng Yiyan.

"Where is Zheng Fu Yin?"

"The official is here."

"What Zheng Xiong said in the pharmacy is the truth."

Facing Zheng Xiong's backstabbing, Zheng Yiyan told the truth.

"That's true."

"It stands to reason that you, as the governor of Ying Tianfu, should have some understanding of this matter, why there is no doubt."

"At that time, His Majesty ordered the rebuilding of the Huimin Pharmacy, and the official thought that there was a lot of demand in Nanjing City, and it was necessary for the pharmacy to be built larger, so Dongluo Ximiang managed to scrape together enough 10,000 yuan for the pharmacy's needs, and the official did not expect that the pharmacy would suffer a loss for this."

"You should have heard of it when it was built."

"I do know some, but the pharmacy has been built, the contract documents and accounts are clear, and the money has been earned by the Ministry of Industry, so I don't say much, and it's all a family, and the matter of the left hand to the right hand should be a lesson."

In the face of Zheng Yiyan's reply, everyone thought that there should not be too many things to do in various departments, and sometimes there is really no way to suffer losses.

"What is the director of the Ministry of Industry's Camp Division?"

"The lower official is here."

"What is the cost of the pharmacy construction department?"

"It's about half of the Ministry of Industry's quotation, about 4,400 yuan."

"Why do you want half more?"

"The Ministry of Industry is too busy, and there is no manpower for the construction of the pharmacy, so they overquote the price and want the pharmacy to retreat."

"Since you took it, why did you give it to a third party?"

"I didn't scare the pharmacy, thinking that the Ministry of Industry would not suffer a loss, so I took over the project, and then told Lord Shangshu about it, but I couldn't spare manpower, so I handed over the pharmacy to a third party."

"How much was given?"

"Six thousand six hundred, the Ministry of Industry got two thousand two hundred."

"Who took over, and because of what made him take over?"

"It was a wealthy businessman who took over, a partner of the Ministry of Industry, because it has always been a free delivery of materials to Nanjing City, and it is also the idea of some compensation."

"Come, go and bring the rich merchants."

asked the director of the completion department, and the three bigwigs looked at Zheng Xiong again.

"Zheng Tiling, is there still a project in the pharmacy that has been handed over to the Ministry of Industry?"

"Yes, the price is about the same, the land has been leveled and the foundation has been laid, and the price has dropped a bit."

"Has the Ministry of Industry taken it? Can Tang Shangshu know? ”

"I took it all, and there were many official affairs, so I handed over the affairs of the pharmacy to the director of the Department of Operations."

"What do you think about letting outsiders make money from the pharmacy."

"At that time, the official saw that he had accepted everything, and there was nothing to do, so he followed the advice of the director of the battalion department and contracted out the project. Some of the engineering department made money, so everyone had a good year, so they turned a blind eye to this matter, and all the affairs of the pharmacy were handed over to the director of the battalion department. ”

"What do you want to say, Director of the Camp Division?"

"This ......"

The principal was speechless for a long time.
