Chapter 230: Ask for Release
The official documents of the imperial court were transmitted by the post station, which was a place for people who passed official documents and military information or officials who came and went to eat and lodging and change horses on the way.
Since the founding of the Great Governance Dynasty, this post station has also had an additional function, which is to transport materials.
In the past, this post station was only responsible for the materials of the imperial court, such as some disaster relief grain, military food transfer, etc., but also after the founding of the country, Emperor Taizu opened this post station to merchants and the like, but they needed to pay a certain amount of silver.
Because there is a post station for transfer, there will be an official who is responsible for escorting, and the security level has naturally been greatly improved, but the cost is not low.
Many people will also ask the post station if they just send some small things, or one or two boxes of things, but the post station does not send them out every day, so sometimes the day is not right, and people have to think of another way.
Thorn Shi thought that since Xie Xiuwen came to Xiangzhou, he had also asked the post station to transfer things and family letters a few times, so he didn't think about it anymore.
Besides, his subordinates have said that they have already checked the things, and there is nothing wrong with them, so there is no need to be too nervous at all.
What they didn't expect was that Xie Xiuwen was simply cultivating the plank road and secretly crossing Chen Cang.
For specific relevant evidence, he had already asked Feng Shu's subordinates to secretly send it to the capital.
Of course, before this, Xie Xiuwen deliberately arranged several errands in different places, which were handled by Feng Shu's men.
After staring at Xiangzhou Assassin Shi and the others a few times, and found that there was nothing wrong, this guard naturally relaxed, and in this way, Xie Xiuwen was given a chance to send a letter.
Xie Xiuwen originally wanted to wait a little longer, but when he learned that his wife was secretly poisoned, he couldn't calm down.
He was not stupid, and carefully stood on the opponent's position to deduce, and then understood why the other party would attack his wife.
Xie Xiuwen has been in the capital for several years, only has a wife, no concubines and no room, and only his daughter is a daughter, and the other two sons are all heirs, so this matter is not a secret.
Thinking that the other party wanted to make him throw a rat bogey, he would come up with a bad plan to poison his family.
Xie Xiuwen attached the evidence, as well as a request for Zhao Yue to take care of his family, he could charge for the emperor, but he could not lose his wife and daughter because of this.
As soon as Zhao Yue got the secret letter and account book, he hurriedly entered the palace.
The two of them planned a lot in the imperial study, and when Zhao Yue finally left, the corners of his eyes finally brought a little joy.
Emperor Jing Wen couldn't sit still.
He got up and paced back and forth in the hall, and when he was discussing with Zhao Yue just now, he was already trying his best to suppress his anger.
As an emperor, he knew very well that he could not be angry with his emotions.
Now that there is no one else, Emperor Jingwen hates to smash all the objects in this palace, of course, he wants to smash the heads of those corrupt officials!
It's insane!
They dare to take any money.
As long as he thought of the officials selected from Xiangzhou Mansion in the past few years, Emperor Jing Wen felt as disgusting as swallowing a fly.
He hated to kill all those officials directly, but he also knew that he couldn't really do that.
The case of Xiangzhou Mansion impersonation actually involved more than 60 officials in the DPRK and China, and if they were all beheaded, there would be problems in the operation of the imperial court mechanism.
However, the more than 30 officials in Xiangzhou Mansion have to be tied up first.
Xie Xiuwen didn't dare to handle such a big case himself, so he asked someone to secretly bring the evidence into the capital, and then let the saint send it.
He did this, firstly, because his rights were indeed restricted, and secondly, because he was worried that if he hosted it alone, it would bring trouble to his family.
Fortunately, the news that Zhao Yue gave back was also fast, and Liu Ruolan's poisoning had already passed the bright road in front of the saint.
Therefore, no matter how Xie Xiuwen's case is handled, just because his family members were assassinated in the line of duty, the saint will treat him a little more leniently.
As for why it is so certain that Liu Ruolan's poisoning is related to the shackling of Xie Xiuwen, it is too easy to guess, there is no need for any evidence at all, the saint has already determined it.
Zhao Yue secretly went to Xiangzhou the next day, and the men he brought with him entered Xiangzhou Mansion in three batches, without alarming local officials.
It wasn't until three days later that the Xiangzhou Governor's Office suddenly attacked and arrested all the officials such as the Xiangzhou Assassin, and Xie Xiuwen finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He has been in Xiangzhou Mansion for nearly two months, and it can't be said that he is worried every day, it's almost the same.
He was really afraid that he would be killed by the people arranged by the assassin when he fell asleep at night, after all, this kind of thing had not happened before.
Since Zhao Yue appeared in Xiangzhou Mansion, Xie Xiuwen was finally able to sleep peacefully.
"Lord Zhao, I'm glad to have you."
"Lord Xie is polite, in fact, the emperor has given you the right to act cheaply, and you can mobilize the Governor's Mansion to assist."
Xie Xiuwen shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I thought I could rely on the Governor's Mansion at the beginning, but who would have thought that this case would become more and more shocking the more it was investigated, and in the future, I would not dare to believe any official of Xiangzhou Mansion anymore." Fortunately, the Holy Master Mingjian sent an adult to preside over the trial. ”
Zhao Yue shook his head and said: "The presiding judge is still Lord Xie, I am a military general, and I am not suitable for the trial." The impersonation is too much trouble, and the Holy Lord intends to let this year's students retake the college exam, and many follow-up things have to be arranged by Lord Xie as soon as possible. ”
"Yes, I will do my best."
The trial of the case did not take much effort, and even if it was a sentence, those officials knew very well that they could not mention a single word that could not be raised.
Even if they die, their families can still have a way to live, once they are recruited, I am afraid that if they don't wait for Xie Xiuwen to be sentenced, their families will have to die.
Xie Xiuwen didn't expect this case to really pull down several high-ranking officials in the capital, but he needed to give an explanation to the students in Xiangzhou Mansion and an explanation to the saints.
Zhao Yue knows His Majesty's holy will, and the case can't be put down gently, but it can't be too much, otherwise, how can the face of the court exist?
It's really hard to grasp.
Xie Xiuwen was reminded by Zhao Yue, so he was naturally more careful.
In addition to the local officials in Xiangzhou, six officials from central Beijing were also involved, and 19 officials from other places have been transferred from the Xiangzhou government to other places.
As for those who have no evidence, then they can only obey the will of God.
This is the first time Xie Xiuwen has handled such a big case, and what is even worse is that as soon as he made a move, dozens of officials in this court were dismissed, and I don't know how many people he will be hated by after he returns to Beijing.
Fucheng and the county offices below have posted notices that this year's college examination will be retaken, and this news is enough to make those students excited.
"Master, if we still have to be in charge of the hospital examination, then we can't go back for the time being?"
Xie Xiuwen didn't raise his head and said: "Prepare as soon as possible, the Ministry of Officials has already sent officials over, and the Ministry of Rites will also have a merit examiner, so many things, you can't really let me do it alone." ”
Zhao Yue strode in, his eyes dark: "Xie Lin asked to release Xiangzhou Mansion, do you know about this?" ”
