Chapter 121: Borrowing a knife

Ye Chengwei hid in a hidden corner outside the prison of the Inspection Division, and witnessed a familiar figure entering the prison, and soon after he came out, he heard a panicked shout: "Oh no, no, Wen Zhifu committed suicide in fear of crime." ”

Hearing this, he didn't show any abnormality on his face, and after smiling, he left silently.

When I returned to the Jiangfang station, as soon as I entered the house and sat down, I saw He Shiyin coming in a hurry.

Not allowing him to speak, He Shiyin took the lead in questioning in a very anxious tone: "I heard that my brother actually drew his sword against Cao Jiang Yushi today?" ”

"There's such a thing."

Ye Chengwei replied in a cold tone.

"Brother is so confused."

He Shiyin's words were extraordinary, and there was a great sense of Xingshi's questioning: "My brother knows that Liu Yan is a person from the Inspectorate, and his prestige in the entire central army is very high, and I heard that this person is still a confidant of King Fu. ”

"The eldest husband has done something and not done something, since I have given the monarch the order to delegate Jiangling City, I should be impartial and ask for my life for the people, how can I be afraid."

Ye Chengwei was a little surprised by her sudden arrival: "Miss He's late night visit, it shouldn't be just to come to Xingshi to ask for guilt, right?" ”

"I'm just worried about my brother's danger."

He Shiyin looked at him cautiously, and replied softly: "My aunt was a little displeased when she heard that my brother had repeatedly offended officials at all levels for favoring the younger sister of the Hua family, so I specially brought a letter for my younger sister to come and inquire. ”

After the words fell, he hurriedly handed the letter to him.

Ye Chengwei took the letter and looked at it roughly.

It was indeed my mother's handwriting, and she slowly frowned for a while.

My mother never asked about her official business, how could she know about Jiang'an County?

And she has always been well aware of righteousness, and she should know that what she does is only for the public and selfless.

Glancing at He Shiyin silently, he instantly understood that someone must be playing right and wrong in front of his mother.

The only person who has this ability to convince her mother is Miss He in front of her.

A few days ago, he heard some rumors about the Li family and the Zhang family, and he had already guessed that Sun Tian's idea of plotting against Li Jialangjun was the handiwork of He Shiyin, and now she wanted to set off a storm, which made him even more dissatisfied.

I can't care about the friendship for many years, Ye Chengwei bluntly warned: "Shiyin, you call me a brother, I am willing to treat you as a righteous sister when I read the relationship between my mother and you, I have already said things in the officialdom, I don't want to repeat them, my mother is my only relative in this world, if someone has bad intentions and instigates our mother-son friendship, I will not spare it." ”

He Shiyin was immediately anxious when she heard this, and explained: "What does my brother mean by this, the little sister only has respect for the brother and the aunt, how can she be provocative, does the brother think that there is anything wrong with the little sister's questioning, the brother has always been calm, if it weren't for the Hua family's sister insisting on going his own way, how could you be so reckless and lay a hidden danger for your career?" ”

Ye Chengwei slapped the table angrily, pondered for a moment, and called directly out of the door, called Lu Xiuyuan in, and ordered in a cold voice: "Send someone to send Miss He back to Jiangling City immediately." ”

"Brother."

He Shiyin felt aggrieved, thinking that his attitude towards Miss Hua was very unfair, but before he could complain, Lu Xiuyuan had already made a gesture of invitation: "Miss He, please." ”

Looking at his brother's resolute eyes, He Shiyin secretly gritted his teeth, and had to leave the Jiangfang garrison with a stomach full of grudges.

Ye Chengwei, who calmed down, didn't care about He Shiyin's affairs anymore, put away the letter, and continued to think about the murder of the Inspection Division.

It's no wonder that Liu Cheng and Tuhong died so strangely but without a trace, it turned out that someone hid the murderer in the Inspection Division.

In this way, naturally no one dares to investigate thoroughly.

But Liu Cheng and Tu Hong were just officials in Jiangling City back then, and it stands to reason that they would not be involved in the affairs of these coal kilns in Jiang'an County, why did King Yun send the murderer to kill the two?

Could it be that King Yun also did other shady things?

Thinking of this, he gradually had an idea in his heart.

As long as you keep an eye on the murderer, sooner or later everything can be thoroughly investigated.

After sitting quietly in the room for a while, Han Su from the Inspection Department suddenly hurried over to personally report Wen Yuming's death.

Ye Chengwei pretended to be angry: "How did Han Tong sentence supervise prisoners, this county has repeatedly told him to watch good prisoners today, and the prefect died in prison as soon as he handed over to your inspection department." ”

Han Yu was so anxious that he didn't know what to do, and explained with a bitter face: "Lord Ye, it's not that the subordinate officials are not supervising effectively, the lower officials have sent a lot of capable people, but Wen Yuming committed suicide by breaking the porcelain bowl and cutting his throat when the jailer delivered food. ”

"Suicide?"

Ye Chengwei pretended to be puzzled: "Han Tongju, if I'm not mistaken, this kind of thing is not the first time, right?" ”

Han Su seemed to have an understanding: "Liu Cheng, Tuhong heard that he also committed suicide in fear of sin." ”

"Exactly."

Ye Chengwei took the opportunity to remind: "It's no accident that this kind of emergency happens repeatedly. ”

Han Su began to notice something, and whispered to Ye Chengwei: "Could it be that this incident in Baitou Mountain is really related to His Royal Highness King Yun?" ”

"Bold."

Ye Chengwei said angrily: "Han Tongju, you are really bold and reckless, you dare to suspect His Royal Highness King Yun." ”

"The lower officials don't dare."

Han Su was frightened by him, and he didn't dare to discuss this matter with Ye Chengwei anymore, but the seeds of doubt had already been planted in his heart.

Moreover, this kind of thing happens one after another, if you don't report it to Your Majesty truthfully, in the future, Your Majesty will blame the first person to be implicated in the Inspection Department.

These officials, who rely on the imperial examination to enter the ranks, are timid and cherish their feathers, but the Inspection Department is a knife in the emperor's hand, how can they hide their edge.

Although he had already made up his mind in his heart, he still had to pretend to be respectful and asked: "This is already the case, the lower officials have an unshirkable responsibility, and I also ask Lord Ye to show me, how to deal with this matter now?" ”

"Wen Yuming has committed suicide in fear of crime, I think those little officials can't ask for any reason even if they ask about the crime, since the county has handed over the matter to Han Tong to deal with, then Han Tong should be sentenced to truthfully play the saint."

Ye Chengwei explained, and deliberately advised: "It's just that when I come to Your Majesty, Han Tongju has to be cautious, and he must be cautious when he says it, although the Inspection Department only obeys His Majesty's orders, but His Majesty will always establish a prince after 10,000 years, Han Tongju should know that now Xue Guifei is the only one who is favored, and King Yun is the most valued by His Majesty, and it may not be known who will inherit the country of this great cause dynasty in the future." ”

"It's clear to the lower officials."

Han Su was full of disdain for his words.

It is said that the Ministry of Officials is the Ministry of King Yun, and now it seems that it is not a false rumor, but I am afraid that Zhuang Yuanlang has already become King Yun's lackey, and it is a shame that His Majesty trusts him so much.

If this continues, His Majesty's rights will not be allowed to be set aside by His Royal Highness King Yun, and he has to guard against it.

So, after hurriedly saying goodbye, he returned to the inspection department, and passed the affairs of Jiang'an County to Beijing overnight.
