Chapter 279: Shelved

Lao Zhu sat firmly on the Diaoyutai and watched the two of His Highness tear each other apart, without rushing to talk.

Zheng Shiyuan received an affirmative reply from the secretary of the Ministry of War, so he asked Lao Zhu for instructions.

"Your Majesty, Weichen asked for instructions, brought the witness with him, and asked His Majesty to answer."

"Yes."

When the person card was brought up, the moment they looked at each other, the expression of the military department Shangshu was obviously a little more flustered.

Although it is tried to cover it up, as long as someone pays attention, it can still be discovered.

After the witness shouted three times, Zheng Shiyuan took a document, handed it to the visitor, and said to him.

"Look at this one, but it's the one you reported."

The witness just took the paperwork, looked at it twice, and said confirmatively.

"Yes, this is it, if Your Majesty and the adults don't believe it, you can find the letters from the lower officials' homes and compare them."

This is a bit rigorous, all said so, the verification can be put later, saving time.

Lao Zhu said directly.

"You can talk about the verified things later, whether it is false accusation or not is not your business now, now you just need to explain the matter to us clearly, and that's it."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"In the first month of the fifth year, the army attacked Mobei, and the military department mobilized war horses from all over the country to enrich the border passes and replenish armaments."

"The lower official is responsible for the review of one of the war horses, which were originally good horses, but somehow, they are very ordinary, and most of them do not meet the standards of good horses."

"The lower official reported to the top, but the reply he got was that the matter was urgent, everything should be taken care of, and he would make arrangements first."

"Although the lower official has doubts, he has to let him go."

"Afterwards, although the lower officials felt that something was wrong and the battle situation was urgent, they had to send ordinary horses as good horses, but if the fighter plane was delayed, the sin was unforgivable."

"Then I sorted out this matter, wrote it in a letter, and sent it to Lord Shangshu for decision."

"Later, Lord Shangshu met with the lower officials and inquired about the matter in detail, which seemed to have the intention of a thorough investigation."

"Then there was no then, the matter was over, Lord Shangshu reported this matter to the lower officials with no evidence, and reported it to the lower officials."

"There are two other people who also have the same experience as Xiaguan, but they have reported it, but they have not continued to report it to Lord Shangshu."

"Since then, the lower officer has been doing some paperwork in the military department, and the other two have been much better off than the lower officer, and now they have been promoted."

"Just such a thing, what the lower official said, everything is true, if there is anything untrue, I am willing to be punished."

The matter has been explained in detail, and there are written documents to support evidence, human witnesses and physical evidence, no matter how much you argue, it is useless.

If you still don't believe me, then continue to summon! See who consumes whom.

The direction of this matter has gone completely in an uncontrollable direction.

It was useless for the military department to say that he knew or didn't know, but because he said the wrong sentence, he fell into passivity.

There's no good way, so keep your mouth hard!

"The minister is guilty of negligence, the minister pleaded guilty, and the gift money received should be returned in full, but the minister really doesn't know what was reported, and he doesn't know when this document arrived at the minister's place of governance, and this minister is really wronged."

A handful of snot and a handful of tears, the expression of the military department Shangshu is like this, and those who don't know can really be confused by this performance.

But things have come to this point, and the evidence of corruption in Liu Qian, the right attendant, is conclusive, and there is no help.

And as Liu Qian's boss, the secretary of the military department must not have to run away for the crime of negligence, and if he doesn't know at all, he can't say it.

In the face of the evidence, everyone naturally chose Mingzhe to protect themselves, and before the matter was clear, they did not plead with the military department.

In the field, only the military department Shangshu was playing his own one-man show.

It was only at this time that Lao Zhu could speak.

"That's enough, if you don't know, you don't know! We won't move you without solid evidence."

"Now, I'm going to wronged you first, first

Stay in prison for a few days, and then make a decision when the truth is clear, are you satisfied?"

The squire of the military department was at a loss for a while, including the courtiers, so he was so frivolous and imprisoned.

Such an obvious thing, it depends on how you judge, what are you waiting for, isn't it an extra move?

"The minister is guilty and should be imprisoned, all by His Majesty's orders."

Lao Zhu grinned and said.

"Bring us the book of the military department."

This process was familiar with the road, and the military department was quickly taken away.

Lao Zhu saw people leaving, looked at Mao Xiang and Zheng Shiyuan and continued.

"Is there conclusive evidence of what Liu Qian and the head of the driving department have committed? Is there an omission, or is there a hidden secret?"

"If it is confirmed, the gift money alone exceeds the amount of money he received, and the money found in his mansion is tens of thousands."

"In addition to his participation in the operation of the gambling house and the profits made from it, there are also tens of thousands of silver taels obtained from the embezzlement of the military department."

"Because I went suddenly, the ledger and everything were there."

"There's also a clear record from the head of the driving department."

Lao Zhu nodded, Lao Zhu is still very strict about the death penalty.

One of the things that Dali Temple does is to review the charges of the condemned prisoners to see if there is any wrongdoing.

Lao Zhu hates corrupt people, but he will not wronged a good person.

After getting a clear answer, he said.

"Drag Liu Qian to the official robe, and the head of the driving department will also take us outside the palace."

"Come with me to the temple to be executed."

The efficiency this time is quite high, I didn't ask, I went directly to the punishment, although the evidence is conclusive, but the efficiency is high!

Such a matter also has a great reference significance, and everyone is speculating about what punishment will be imposed.

At noon, although the weather in winter is cold, the sun is too big, and it is not comfortable to stay for a long time.

Looking at the high-level officials who came out of the hall, the officials in line stood up one after another, as if waiting for the review.

Lao Zhu walked outside the hall, but he did not get off the high platform, but asked someone to move a chair under the eaves.

The ministers who came out lined up one by one under the eaves, and lined up in two rows, on the left and right.

Liu Qian, who was bound, and the head of the driving department were tied up in a place in the square under the eyes of everyone.

Lao Zhu looked at the civil and military forces, and sighed inexplicably in his heart, and found out a military department, but from top to bottom, it was almost rotten.

If you think about it carefully, I don't know how many places there are, without knowing it, there are all kinds of corruption.

I didn't feel anything about this kind of thing, but once I found out, Lao Zhu had an impulse to just do something special and deter these people.

Only then can this trend of corruption be stopped.

In all dynasties, there is not much to learn from that that can effectively curb this trend.

In addition to supervision, that is reporting, otherwise it is brought out by party disputes.

Lao Zhu started from a bowl and has his current status, he is studious, but he also has his own way of doing things.
