NOVEL NEXT Chapter 99
Chapter 96 Afraid to squeeze Mingzhe to protect him
When heard the word’cloth under the eyeliner’, Ye Xingmao’s face suddenly appeared panicked, but in the blink of an eye, he stopped the panic again, crying and crying out injustice.
“I am wronged, sir, but a small one, how can I arrange eyeliner in the mansion of Mr. Xu? This is really wrong!”
According to common sense, an insignificant little official in soap robes, how can he put his eyeliner in the fourth-rank high official’s mansion, and also force Xu Mingtang to desperately desperately fight with death?
However, his fleeting panic just now proved Sun Shaozong’s conjecture!
In this way, there are only two possibilities.
Either, this Ye Xingmao is really an inexperienced hero, so he can manipulate Xu Mingtang, a senior official from the fourth grade, with the body of a commoner, or, behind Ye Maoxing, there is also a messenger who is more powerful than Xu Mingtang.
Obviously, the latter possibility is far greater than the former!
And Ye Xingmao also mentioned that Xu Mingtang is the head of the “hedi ambassador” in the world, and the official position in the river yamen is only under the superintendent and commander.
This governor, naturally refers to Wang Yan, the river governor; is this handsome, refers to the two river governors of the north and the south — the Jiangnan river governor is resident in Jinling and has no right to intervene in the northern river affairs, so the most suspected one is Wang Yan and the Governor of Beihe!
Wang Yan naturally thought of this episode. His face seemed to be dark at the bottom of the pot, and he squeezed a sentence from his teeth after a long time: “Crazy and crazy, really crazy! If the official does not investigate this case, he will not get to the bottom of it. give up!”
then angrily ordered: “Come on, take this thief with me first!”
A few people immediately rushed up to the left and right, and pushed the Ye Xingmao to the ground.
Wang Yan was still at a loss for his anger. He stepped forward and kicked his chest, and asked, “Damn slave, why don’t you tell me why you are spying on Lord Xu’s mansion? Tell me the truth!”
“Master Butang Mingjian, the villain is really wronged, wronged!”
Ye Xingmao still shouted injustices, and refused to tell the truth.
“Good good, what a thief who can’t see the coffin without crying!”
Wang Yan’s beard laughed a lot, but he suddenly turned around and ordered: “Sun Tongjudging, since this case was seen through by your insight, I will hand this thief to you-I also ask Sun Tongjudgment to use thunderous methods again. , Find out the hidden facts clearly!”
When he was just doing lust, Sun Shaozong kept watching his nose and his mind, as if the old monk entered concentration.
Now that Wang Yan who listens to this order, he only frowned slightly, and he arched his hands indifferently: “Master Ministry, if it is the responsibility of the subordinate, the subordinate is naturally responsible, but is this case-I am afraid that it will be the first My colleagues in Hedao Yamen, please check if there is any problem with Mr. Ye’s accounts.”
“As it should be.”
Before Wang Yan expressed his opinion, Jia Yucun on the side nodded in agreement: “This case involves officials from the fourth grade. If corruption and fraud are found, it should be accepted by Dali Temple or the Metropolitan Procuratorate according to the rules. I am in Shuntian Mansion. Don’t dare to cross over on my behalf.”
According to Dazhou’s rules, if it is an ordinary criminal homicide case, it will naturally be investigated by the local government or the Criminal Ministry. However, as long as it involves corruption cases of Grade 7 or higher, it must be presided over by the Dali Temple and the Metropolitan Procuratorate. The local government and the Criminal Ministry can only Side assist.
Sun Shaozong took Jia Yucun’s words again, and said with a righteous expression: “Of course, if the minister determines that the case has nothing to do with official corruption, the lower officials will definitely investigate it to the end, even going through water and fire!”
Damn little fox!
In the face of Sun Shaozong’s ‘just right’ cheeks, Wang Yan didn’t know how many filthy words he had secretly scolded in his heart. Officer, can there be no problems with the accounts? !
Originally, Wang Yan thought that Sun Shaozong called Jia Yucun together out of respect for his superiors, but now it seems that Sun Shaozong clearly had the intention of retreating, so he deliberately invited Jia Yucun to come over and sing together!
Although Jia Yucun is a bit inferior to Wang Yan, but at any rate he can be regarded as a member of the party, unlike Sun Shaozong and other six-level officials, who can be squeezed and squeezed at will.
Therefore, although Wang Yan felt unhappy, he had to mumble: “In this case, I will first mobilize some people from the Ministry of Engineering to thoroughly investigate all the accounts of Xu Mingtang!”
After finishing speaking, I took my eyes to see Sun Shaozong and Jia Yucun, only to see that the two of them again looked at their noses and noses, and looked at themselves as if they had nothing to do with themselves.
is really a raccoon!
Wang Yan muttered angrily, and waited to leave here with a flick of his sleeves.
It’s just that he has just taken a step, but he heard Sun Shaozong reminded: “Master Butang, the most important thing right now is not to check the accounts, but to protect the dam that ‘Master Xu built’.”
Wang Yan paused when he heard the words, and there was a chuckle in his heart.
Only because he was worried that this ‘corruption case’ would affect him, Wang Yan would inevitably be a little concerned and confused. At this time, after Sun Shaozong’s reminder, he thought of the huge crisis behind Xu Mingtang’s suicide!
If you haven’t encountered a hurdle that you can’t go, how easy is it to force a fourth-rank official to death?
Xu Mingtang, as the embankment ambassador of the Yongding River, the hurdle in his heart that cannot be passed must lie on the embankment of the Yongding River!
And once the embankment is out of business…
was in a panic, then he heard Sun Shaozong say: “I also ask the Lord Butang to make preparations, and the people along the river will be…”
However, before Sun Shaozong finished speaking this time, Jia Yucun suddenly cut off his words and said with a serious face: “Please rest assured, Lord Butang, I will definitely organize the people to defend the north **** and protect the capital together with the river yamen. No problem!”
Hearing this, Sun Shaozong and Wang Yan were shocked.
Sun Shaozong meant that he wanted Wang Yan to organize the evacuation of the people along the river; but what Jia Yucun said was all in the four words ‘guarding the north dike’!
Although Jia Yucun didn’t make it clear , how Sun Shaozong and Wang Yan couldn’t hear what he meant. They were actually persuading Wang Yan to abandon the South Dike if necessary, or even destroy the South Dike altogether, so that the flood could be diverted. Go to the borders of Hebei and try to keep Kaifeng Mansion safe!
Wang Yan showed some struggling expression on his face, and he hesitated: “The autumn floods of Yongding River have always come quickly, and I am afraid that the flood peaks will enter the boundary of the capital within a few days. In this short period of time, how…but how can it be too late… ”
However, Jia Yucun still had a stern expression on his face, solemnly handing over his hands: “The duty of the officials is that it is too late to summon the people, and you have to try hard, otherwise, if you can’t keep the North Dike, in case the flood is flooding. I’ve come to disturb the sacred driver, and I will be to blame for the death of the official!”
Wang Yan is afraid that it will not be too late to evacuate the people from the South Bank, and Jia Yucun keeps saying ‘Calling up the people’s strong,’ but in fact he is still persuading Wang Yan to give up the South Bank, or even the people on the South Bank!
Seeing that the hesitation on Wang Yan’s face gradually faded, Sun Shaozong’s heart was getting colder and colder–he originally just wanted to remind Wang Yan, who would have finally come up with such a frenzied countermeasure?
gritted his teeth, he couldn’t help but arched his hands: “Master Butang, the next official is willing to go to the South Bank to organize the people to evacuate…”
“Making a fool!”
Before he was finished, Jia Yucun scolded wildly: “You and I are both ministers of the soil, and I have not received the emperor’s order. How can you go to Hebei to act indiscriminately? Let’s talk about this matter. The officials decide to do it, why do you superfluous?!”
Wang Yan also sighed, and then ordered: “Sun Tongjuan, you don’t have to worry about this matter. The most important thing at the moment is to temporarily block this matter so that the military will not be shaken. You will return to the back hall later. Say that Xu Mingtang committed suicide because of the discord at home and was angry.”
