Chapter 299: Pretending to be caught

Seeing Ji Changye's gentle expression, this person thought that what he said was hopeful, but he suddenly saw Ji Changye's eyes sink, and immediately listened: "Your Excellency has been an official in the court for more than ten years, and you must be very familiar with the laws of the court, in this case, don't you know, how to convict the prince and marquis of this bribery?" Then the king will tell you that he will be sentenced to twenty years in prison, and his family will be exiled. I wonder if you remember?"

Ji Changye's tone inadvertently became a little cold, which made the man shudder, knowing that he had said something that he shouldn't have said and done something he shouldn't have done, so he hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy: "Lord Wang's forgiveness! The prince forgives his sins! The little one doesn't have the intention to break the law, and I hope that the prince can be gracious, so if the little one has never been here, the prince will forgive the sin! The prince forgives his sins!" As he spoke, he stepped forward and wanted to grab Ji Changye's brocade robe, but Ji Changye dodged him and made him pounce.

At this time, the man stiffened in place, because he knew that Ji Changye was rejecting his request, and the matter of his conviction was a certainty, but he still sold it miserably: "Lord Wang, the little one is also confused for a while, otherwise it is impossible to do this kind of thing even if he borrows the courage of the small one." So I also hope that the prince can give the little one a chance, and the small one will repay it a hundred times!" As he spoke, he knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing, saying good things in his mouth.

But Ji Changye was still unmoved, got up and said sharply, "Do you think that this king is such an unprincipled person? The king will not help you in this matter, and you should be ready for your own punishment." Saying that, Ji Changye called Changfeng, who was waiting outside, and asked him to drive this person out, and spread the matter of his bribe to the Emperor Qiyue, and spread it to the people.

At this point, the people became even more restless, the crusade became more and more intense, and even the people in local counties and small towns began to be ready to move.

The male protagonist was appointed to solve this matter in Dali Temple, so he resolutely stopped many of the positions of the ministers involved, put them in prison, and waited for the final delivery, including the minister who paid bribes.

The Queen Mother finally felt a little flustered in her heart after knowing that Ji Changye had dealt with this matter, after all, Ji Changye had grown up watching by herself, and she naturally knew what kind of temperament he had, so she hurriedly called her mother clan and asked them to leave the imperial capital first, go outside to avoid the limelight, and wait until this matter is resolved before coming back, otherwise sooner or later the previous matter will be revealed.

The other families knew that after the Queen Mother's family left the imperial capital, they also became restless and wanted to leave here to avoid getting angry, but it was too late, because Ji Qimu had already noticed their movements, and after consulting the emperor, he set up a checkpoint at the gate of the city, making it difficult for them to fly and completely cut off the idea of escaping.

Ji Changye was also able to smoothly take these people's family members to Dali Temple for interrogation, under the pretext that it was a routine matter to appease them, but they are not stupid people, especially those with weak hearts, afraid that they will not be able to get out after entering here.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this king is just doing his business in the name of His Majesty, so don't be nervous, just relax." Ji Changye appeared in the prison of Dali Temple, looked at the trembling people, and said pretending to reassure.

But listening to his words, the crowd became even more nervous.

A slightly higher official opened his mouth and asked, "Lord, is there something Your Majesty asked you to bring us here?" Otherwise, how could you come to Dali Temple? So the prince should stop selling Guanzi, and tell us what happened." If it is said that they die early and reincarnate early, they all know why they were brought here, but they still have a fluke mentality, wanting to know what is the reason, so that they can be mentally prepared and think about how to get themselves out.

Ji Changye, who knew their careful thoughts, secretly sneered, and then replied, "Ladies and gentlemen, there really isn't anything important. I guess everyone already knows what has happened in the market recently, right? That's why Your Majesty asked everyone to come here and say whatever they know." With that, he got up and glanced at the officials around him, and then he went to the interrogation room first, and then the officials walked in with one of the men.

After the man sat down, he became restless, looked around, and finally couldn't help but ask, "Lord Wang, they don't know what they have done, and it's useless for you to bring the little ones here, right?" Therefore, the little one has to go back to take care of his eighty-year-old mother, so you can be kind and put the little one back." Although what he did was not a good thing, compared to the other people sitting here, his things were definitely not mentioned, but he was selected first, which made him want to cry without tears.

"Don't be nervous, my lord, I naturally know that my lord won't. What are you doing, but I hope that the adults can understand this king, and this king is also acting according to His Majesty's will, and I don't really want to target you, and I hope that your lords will not blame this king," Ji Changye said hypocritically.

The man immediately waved his hand and said, "The prince is laughing, how can the little one have the courage to blame the prince? If the prince wants to ask, just ask, if the little one knows, he will definitely answer the prince, and he will definitely not hide anything." After knowing that he had no way out, he had no choice but to accept this matter.

And Ji Changye really didn't embarrass him, but after asking a few irrelevant questions, he concluded that he didn't have any problems, and then let people send him away from Dali Temple, and what happened didn't take more than a quarter of an hour.

I didn't expect it to be so easy, so the others were all ready to move when they saw this, and they all wanted to be interrogated by Ji Changye as soon as possible, and then leave here as soon as possible safe and sound.

And the reason why Ji Changye did this was also to divert their attention, after all, now that the queen mother's clan had left, it had caused quite a stir in the imperial capital. If you can't appease the other families at this time, I'm afraid it will be out of control. So the emperor allowed Ji Changye to pretend to ask them a few words, and let them leave here.

However, the next person who came in made Ji Changye a little surprised, because this person was Xiao Jianyuan.

The other party calmly sat on the interrogation chair opposite Ji Changye, looked at Ji Changye and said, "If the prince wants to ask anything, just open his mouth, if the old minister knows something, he will definitely report it truthfully, and he will not deliberately hide it and deceive His Majesty and the prince." His expression was indifferent, daring to think that these things had nothing to do with him, but in fact, Ji Changye knew that he no longer wanted to get involved in Ji Qirui's affairs, so he wanted to leave while the chaos was unsuccessful.

"The prince laughed, how dare this king interrogate the king? It must have been an accident for those people to bring you back, so I hope the prince won't blame you."

"Don't get me wrong, the old minister didn't mean this, he just wanted to say that the old minister would never do these corrupt things, so please rest assured that Your Majesty and the prince." Ji Changye replied pretendedly, looked at his face, and then asked, "This king naturally knows, so don't be nervous, this king just asks a few simple questions. If you answer, you can leave."

Xiao Jianyuan knew that he had no room for maneuver, so he could only go with the flow and deal with it when the time came.

And Ji Changye was so respectful and orderly that he couldn't say anything, so he could only pretend to ask a few irrelevant questions, but just when Xiao Jianyuan felt that he could leave, he heard Ji Changye ask, "I don't know if the adults have anything to do with the prince when they come in." Knowing that this was not something that the emperor asked him to ask, Xiao Jianyuan immediately became vigilant, shook his head and replied, "The old minister doesn't know what the prince asks again, and he doesn't know about this matter, and I hope the prince can understand."

When he said these words, Xiao Jianyuan couldn't help but feel a little weak, after all, he was indeed helping Ji Qirui do a lot of unsightly things, and now he can only lie here, and he can't be seen yet.

And Ji Changye naturally saw these expressions of his eyes, and he wanted to demolish Xiao Jianyuan who was pretending to be now, but thinking that if he exposed these things now, he would also be involved after manipulating, so what he did was really halfway, so Ji Changye smiled and relieved the embarrassment and said: "These things are just private matters between the king and the prince, because the prince has always promised the ministers that they want to play chess together, but he didn't expect to see the prince's palace after that day

I want to ask the lord to see if His Majesty sent him to do something."

Xiao Jianyuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart after hearing this, and pretended to reply calmly: "The minister doesn't know what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is doing now, after all, the minister doesn't have any qualifications to interfere with His Royal Highness the Prince, so I still hope that the prince can forgive the sin, and the minister really doesn't know about His Royal Highness the Prince." He didn't just know about Ji Qirui, he was simply involved in fidgeting, after all, he knew that his unsightly thing would not be spread in the future.

Ji Changye knew that he would answer like this, so he was not surprised, and got up and took the initiative to send the person out and said, "Thank you, Lord Guozhang, in that case, the minister will go to find His Royal Highness the Crown Prince by himself, Lord Guozhang is suffering, please leave carefully." As he spoke, he let the long wind beside him follow, and watched him leave.

He didn't stammer with Xiao Jianyuan, he just wanted to know more things from here, and there was nothing else strange.

Finally, after all the ministers involved today were pretended to be interrogated and let go, Ji Changye finally couldn't help but say to Changfeng on the side, "How many people are there to interrogate today?" Changfeng flipped over the bright side and replied, "No, Lord Wang. So we can go back now, and I heard that Mrs. Song said today that she still wants to make braised pork."

After knowing his careful thoughts, Ji Changye couldn't help but smile and said, "What's the hurry? Could it be that those meats can still run with long legs, you have worked hard today, so you can rest when you go back, and you don't have to patrol at night, and those secret guards protect the palace."

"Don't worry, your subordinates can hold on." Saying that, Changfeng had already packed his things and was ready to leave.

But at this time, someone suddenly walked in.
