In ancient times, soldiers and commanders who went out on expeditions would have different punishments depending on the severity of the situation if they delayed their military period.

Punishment includes not only caning, deprivation of rank, fines, and even death.

According to the stipulations of the "Qing Law," whether intentionally or unintentionally, as long as a combat unit fails to arrive at the designated place on time and delays the fighter's plane, it is a violation of military orders and constitutes the crime of defaulting on time.

Of course, for Qingguo, especially the crown prince, the final disposal power is completely in the hands of the emperor.

At this time, Emperor Qing glanced at the ministers, and after everyone was indignant and accused the prince of his crimes, Emperor Qing nodded.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I know what you are saying."

"However, the contents of the letter alone cannot determine the reason why the prince stayed in Jincheng, so I will issue an order to send an overseer overseer. I went to see the situation in Jincheng, if it was really as the letter said, I would definitely not sit idly by. ”

"But if someone deliberately fabricates the facts, I will never tolerate it!"

How could Yang Wenyuan and the others not hear that the emperor was deliberately biasing himself in favor of the crown prince when he said this.

It's just to stall for him.

Although Jincheng is not far away, it will take at least a day to reach it as quickly as possible.

If the crown prince had been gone today, even if the Overseer had arrived, he would not have been punished.

But there was no way, at this time, no one could change the emperor's decision.

Yang Wenyuan immediately stood up.

"The Emperor Shengming!"

"I don't know who you want to send as an overseer, Your Majesty?"

Emperor Qing did not answer, but asked rhetorically.

"Who does the prime minister want?"

Yang Wenyuan thought for a while, and glanced back at everyone.

"The old minister thinks that it is most suitable for Lord Yang to be the waiter of the Ministry of Works!"

"Lord Yang had been an overseer before, and he had been in Jincheng for a while, so he was familiar with the officials and government affairs there. This time, the minister believes that he will be able to find out the reason for the prince's stay! ”

That being said, everyone knows it in their hearts.

Yang Chu has an old grudge against the prince, and after Prime Minister Yang cleared the handle behind him, he has been waiting, looking for an opportunity to take revenge on the prince.

And now, isn't it the best time?

Let him be an overseer, and still say good things for the prince?

At this time, the ministers stepped forward one after another.

"The ministers agree with the Prime Minister's proposal!"

Emperor Qing pondered for a moment. In the quiet hall, there was a gloomy feeling all over it.

"Since all the ministers agree, then Yang Chu will be the overseer who will go to Jincheng this time."

At the end of this meeting, when everyone had all retreated, Emperor Qing suddenly looked at the servant Laifu.

"Go! Spread Zhang Shi into the temple to see you! ”

......

“... Your Highness, that's probably the case. ”

After listening to what Qin Wei said, Liu Qi snorted coldly.

"Spread the king's command! Immediately put Shi Kailin in prison! ”

Just now, Qin Wei and Liu Qi reported the results of the investigation.

After investigation, it was learned that Zhao Weixian was indeed out of the city alone, and after the dictation of a woodcutter from Luzhang County, he saw the figure of Lord Zhao on the way to Jincheng.

Qin Wei asked a little more before he knew.

On the road to Jincheng, he has been walking for more than ten years, and there are no beasts infested at all! Moreover, I have never heard of bandits around!

In other words, if Zhao Weixian's purpose is Jincheng, it is almost impossible to have an accident on the way.

Of course, this is not enough evidence to convict Skellin.

However, it was discovered when Qin Wei explored Luzhang County.

Sun Xing, the current county commander, was transferred from other counties.

This is nothing, and the county warden has the right to appoint and govern the county order.

But here's the point!

Qin Wei inquired in many ways and found out.

This name is Sun Xing, and it turned out to be a county prince, that is, the second-in-command of the county government.

Later, because he was greedy for money and food, he was reported by the people, so he was dismissed from his post by the county order.

An official who has once violated the law can still be transformed into a county magistrate of Luzhang County, which is not a trivial problem.

And also!

Now in Luzhang County, all the subordinates who were transferred. More than half of them are Sun Xing's family members!

It is no exaggeration to say that the current Luzhang County is equivalent to his grandson's family.

There is nothing else, and if he stays longer, Qin Wei can only return to Jincheng with the existing information.

At this time, Qin Wei, who heard the prince's order, was suddenly startled.

"Your Highness, just because of this matter, you will put Shi Kailin in prison?"

In Qin Wei's mind, Shi Kailin could have a hundred reasons.

For example, he didn't know about the people who were recommended by the people below. Or the years are too long, forgetting the crimes committed by Sun Xing before, etc.

In this way, at most, he can only be asked about a crime of negligence.

In the Qing Dynasty, the sentence for this crime of negligence was nothing more than a fine, a warning, and a serious demotion.

Directly sent to prison, this is already beyond the scope of the sentence.

The most important thing is that what is to be disposed of now is still a Taishou, a four-grade member appointed by the imperial court!

Liu Qi naturally understood what Qin Wei meant. But he chuckled indifferently, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

"This time, this king wants to make a big fuss, just to let everyone know that he Shi Kailin committed something and was imprisoned by this king!"

"Only in this way can we lure the snake out of the hole!"

Liu Qi knows very well that it is difficult to find out more in a short period of time in Luzhang County, or in Jincheng!

What he has to do now is to completely muddy this pool of clear water!

Liu Qi didn't believe it, Shi Kailin was all imprisoned, and those people could still calm down?

They don't think that a small crime of negligence will put the Taishou in prison, they only think that the prince has found out more.

In this way, as long as they do something, they will definitely show their feet!

"The last general obeys!"

Qin Wei no longer hesitated, and immediately executed.

As soon as he left, Liu Qi walked to the window.

Looking at the clear blue sky, he could feel it.

This storm in Jincheng is coming soon!

But he has neither regrets nor fear!

Even if behind this Jincheng is covered by the king of heaven, Lao Tzu, he will also pierce this sky!

If you can't even play a small Jincheng, then what qualifications do you have to be the prince of Daqing?

......

"Your Highness, Jia He outside the door, bring a group of Jincheng officials to ask to meet!"

Han Dalin stood outside the door and shouted.

But Liu Qi replied coldly.

"Tell them that this king will not see anyone!"

It didn't take a while.

"Your Highness! The Four Princes and General Yan Wenhu, please see! ”

"Tell them! If you dare to disturb the king, you will be severely punished! ”
