Chapter 45 Assistance in Handling
This benefit did not fall on the other ministers, and they were naturally indignant in their hearts.
But in view of the fact that this matter was arranged by the emperor, he didn't dare to criticize it, so he had to stare at Li Chengzhou with a resentful face.
After going down to the court, Li Chengzhou walked forward like a walking corpse with his head down, and Li Xuan was also shocked by the emperor's arrangement just now, and he was completely sleepy.
He hurriedly chased after him, and then patted Li Chengzhou on the shoulder.
"Uncle Huang, you want to be reused by your father, it will soar to 90,000 miles in the future, and my nephew still hopes to get more points from you."
Seeing him teasing himself, Li Chengzhou let out a long sigh, and then looked at him with a bitter smile on his face.
"You kid only eat, drink and have fun on weekdays, but you don't know that your imperial uncle has fallen into a trap, how can this matter be so simple? You'd better hurry up and go back and have a good rest, and don't inquire about this matter anymore. ”
This kid is simple-minded, so naturally he can't think of the reason, and he doesn't want to say anything.
A person sped up his pace and walked forward, although he could hear the other courtiers' dissatisfaction with him, he was even more worried about how he could assist Dali Siqing in dealing with this matter.
Halfway through, Dali Siqing hurried over.
"Why did the prince go so fast? Just got off the official but got all the way. ”
Seeing that she took the initiative to talk, Li Chengzhou stopped.
"Lord Lin, but you have something to talk to this king?"
He raised his eyebrows slightly, not knowing what Dali Siqing meant.
"Your Majesty wants you and me to deal with this matter together, and the lower officials naturally came to discuss with the prince how to deal with this matter, after all, you have to take the best of both worlds."
He and General Zhenyuan are both four-rank officials, but although Li Chengzhou has a high official position, he does not have any authority, and the power in his hands is far less than that of Lord Lin in front of him.
"Your Majesty wants you to personally supervise it, this king is just collaborating to deal with it, and this king doesn't know the whole picture, not to mention that Lord Lin is famous, with your ability, you will definitely be able to handle this matter well, how to do it, let go of the fist script, and the king will naturally cooperate."
He could see that the other party was not trying to discuss with him, but wanted to see his attitude.
A prince actually gave a hand to a four-grade official, which is ridiculous to say.
Seeing that Li Chengzhou didn't think anything of him, Lin Shaoqing showed an indifferent smile on his face at this moment.
"Then please deal with it with the lower officials."
Stretching out his hand and not hitting the smiling person, since he was so polite to himself, Li Chengzhou didn't say much, just bowed his head slightly and followed behind him.
When the two returned to Dali Temple, they flipped through the file of the matter, and Li Chengzhou learned the details of the matter.
Half a year ago, General Zhenyuan was transferred back to the imperial city, he was the general's most powerful assistant, and when the border came, he personally led people to the border, and there was a batch of military salaries to be handed over to him.
But because the border attack was too sudden, he took the lead with an elite to feel the border resistance, and the rest of the army was stationed outside the imperial city.
But I didn't expect to meet a group of mountain bandits on the way to transport, this group of mountain bandits appeared in a very strange place, there has never been a deep mountain with mountains and rivers, not only appeared this group of bandits, but also erased all traces with lightning speed.
When General Zhenyuan led people to personally investigate the scene, he found that there was no trace, and all the military sounds disappeared without a trace.
At first glance, it was clear that some masters were being found, otherwise it would not have been handled so cleanly.
Everyone knew that this was an ambush here.
But this matter was used by people with intentions, and then it continued to ferment in the court.
When General Zhenyuan led his soldiers to win the battle and was about to come back, he suddenly encountered a group of mysterious people who attacked and used extremely elite troops, and only a few people returned from the battlefield.
I thought that what awaited him would be a triumphant feast, but he never thought that he would be arrested and imprisoned in the prison as soon as he arrived in the imperial city.
"This matter is full of suspicions, I don't know if Dali Siqing can have eyebrows?"
After Li Chengzhou read the dossier, he put it aside, he knew in his heart that this was a game.
The so-called border attack was just a group of rogues harassing it, but the soldiers on the frontier did not have any resistance, but transferred General Zhenyuan, who was far away in the imperial city, to the past, which was clearly a trap.
The large army encountered an ambush but not many people were injured, and they just lost all their military salaries, but there were no clues to find this group of bandits.
The one who gets this benefit is naturally not a general, but an emperor.
First, it can take back the military power, second, it can cut off the right arm of the general, and third, it can also eradicate a scourge.
"Maybe it's because the prince has been in retreat for a long time, so he doesn't know much about the investigation of the case, this case is very clear at a glance, it is clear that General Zhenyuan colluded with foreign criminals to rob all the military salaries, and collaborated with the enemy to commit treason, this person has a vicious mind, and he has been lurking for many years with ulterior motives."
Before he could produce evidence, he concluded that it seemed that the hat was to be fastened strongly, and he didn't have much to say.
In just half a day, the matter was investigated clearly, and all the mysteries were settled after General Zhenyuan signed the confession.
And he also heard some news that the reason why General Zhenyuan pleaded guilty and obeyed the law was that he was tortured and passed out and was directly detained by the officials with his fingers and signed.
The general also began to send people to operate continuously, but after learning that General Zhenyuan was beheaded, the whole person looked decadent.
Immediately, the anger swelled in his chest, and he slapped his palm on the table.
"This is clearly a frame-up, there is no investigation at all, so he carried such a big pot, it seems that this Yongle King has not been self-cultivation for many years, but has been strategizing for many years, but he wants to wait until the prime minister has an accident, show his demeanor in the court, this person who kills a thousand knives, dares to take my brother to open the knife, this revenge is not a gentleman!"
Although the general is brave and strategic, he is a person who values love and righteousness after all, and he was blinded in front of friendship, and the strong hatred made him dizzy.
In the afternoon, Li Chengzhou followed Dali Siqing to the Zhenyuan General's Mansion.
In a short time, all the valuable things here were taken away.
All the men were to be beheaded for public display, and the female relatives of the family could not escape the tragedy of fate.
Although General Zhenyuan has a group of wives and concubines, he only has two daughters, and the two of them learned that their father had an accident, and they washed their faces with tears all day long.
At this moment, Zhao Songlin walked over with a group of people.
"Lord Wang, you are also here."
He came here to pick people on behalf of the Sect Division, and his men quickly brought out all the female dependents in the house.
Li Chengzhou nodded slightly, and then his eyes swept over him and looked at the group of female dependents.
Suddenly, there was a faint yellow-brown light in the crowd, which was a little difficult to see by the person in front of him, so he pushed aside the crowd and walked in that direction.
