Chapter 701 Gao Qingtian at this moment is so dazzling
"Qin Ming is in prison, and Dong Ping is missing?"

At that time, Qian once again found out the situation of the two of them. Li Yan put down the cold gun on the training ground, and raised his eyebrows: "What exactly is going on?"

Shi Qian said: "Qin Ming is Jinyong's deputy lieutenant, and now he is in prison for dereliction of duty, and he was arrested by the Ministry of Criminal Justice. This group of officials may not be able to arrest them because Judge Ding is tyrannical. Let's take one of our own first. It’s also easy to do business.”

Li Yan nodded: "The analysis is good."

Shi Qian said: "As for Dong Ping, he was originally an imperial guard in the Beijing camp, but he is also an outstanding figure. It's a pity that his cousin is an insider of the Mingzun sect, and he was implicated and spent money and money, so he was not imprisoned. I wanted to use the guard Zhao Tingzhi to turn over, but Zhao Tingzhi was killed again, probably because he saw the situation was not good, so he left Beijing directly."

After a pause, Shi Qian quite agreed with this kind of behavior: "Although disappearing at this time, it is unavoidable to be suspected, but the court has always arrested people indiscriminately. If you stay, you will still be wronged and slandered. It is better to leave and worry." .”

This time Li Yan shook his head and said, "No!"

He didn't continue talking, Shi Qian immediately knew that this was his elder brother's test of his ability to analyze information, after thinking about it carefully, he came back to it: "I understand, since the Mingzun cult was involved last time, Dong Ping can make money Get away, although Zhao Tingzhi's family was killed this time, if Dong Ping had nothing to do with him, he would have been able to get away with it if he continued to deal with it, and he would have been exonerated. , isn’t it self-defeating?”

Li Yan smiled and said: "That's right, but it's just a matter of doubt. For the specific situation, further information needs to be collected. For example, Dong Ping's money was exhausted last time. He couldn't deal with the greedy officials and had to leave. It is also entirely possible, this is a clue, and it is worth pursuing."

Shi Qian clasped his fists: "Please don't worry, brother, I'll investigate again!"

Before noon this time, Shiqian returned and brought more comprehensive news: "This Dong Ping is a member of the Shangdang family in the east of the river. The imperial guards who are familiar with each other go to the main store, spend a lot of money, and have money on them."

Li Yan asked: "What is the impression of Dong Ping on those imperial robes?"

Shi Qian said: "High in martial arts, unpredictable with two spears, no opponent in the encounter, but also pretentious, unwilling to stay under others for a long time."

"Even though this Dong Ping was out of the imperial guards of the Beijing camp, he was still planning to return to Hedong, join the army and make meritorious deeds, so that he could have a wife and son. It can be seen that this man is very eager for fame. No wonder Zhao Tingzhi recruited him and immediately became a guard. After all, being able to curry favor with the last imperial censor, Zhongcheng, has a bright future."

Li Yandao: "Since this is the case, Dong Ping should know that the guards Zhao Tingzhi this time were headed by him and Qin Ming, and all the people who were to protect were wiped out. He disappeared without reason as a guard, and the suspicion increased. If the government really wants to arrest him, it is If we go back to Hedong, we can only become bandits."

Shi Qian wondered: "Yeah, it's not a wise move to leave. Is this Dong Ping related to the Miemen case? But he has no grievances or enmities with Zhao Tingzhi's family, so there is no reason to do such a thing..."

Li Yan thought for a while and said, "Qin Ming is locked in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, can you get in touch?"

Shi Qian said: "Yes, the jailers in the various prisons are what I focus on. Didn't brother say before that there are many talents in the prison, so the jailers are naturally worth buying."

Li Yan said approvingly: "Well done, contact Qin Ming through the jailer, and ask him and Dong Ping what happened in Zhao Tingzhi's mansion. The speed should be quick."

Shi Qian nodded: "Brother, don't worry, the Ministry of Criminal Justice has arrested Qin Ming, and Dali Temple may also be planning to arrest Dong Ping. They are all afraid of the wrath of the officials. I will take the responsibility myself. I will be ahead of them!"

Li Yan smiled: "If Dong Ping is still in the capital, it's good to lock this person's position, as for the officials above the court to be angry... Oh, not necessarily!"

……

Zhao Ji was indeed furious for a while, and then began to secretly laugh.

The sensational effect caused by a single case of Wu Juhou's extermination is naturally completely different from that of consecutive exterminations.

The court meeting was held urgently, and all the ministers hurriedly entered the hall, with fright and anxiety on their faces, and the atmosphere was extremely oppressive.

Such turmoil, even if it cannot completely replace the killing of mothers, is enough to keep the topic hot for a long time, and Zhao Ji was immediately relieved.

As for the continuous killing of officials and rebellion, whether it means that the rule of the Zhao Song royal family has been shaken is beyond his consideration.

"My minister impeached Wu Junmou, the servant of the Ministry of Punishment. He was mediocre and ineffective, and he was arrogant and arrogant. As a result, Zhongliang was trapped, and the people's grievances boiled!"

"Your minister impeached Zheng Zan, the chancellor of Dali Temple, emptied food and valued salary, and acted empty-handedly. As a result, Zhongliang was trapped, and people's grievances boiled over!"

"My minister impeached the Dali Temple of the Ministry of Punishment. There is no material available. The teaching is not of the same class. The superior cannot change the master, and the subordinate dies to benefit the people. They are all dead and vegetarian, and must be strictly investigated!"

Sure enough, the court meeting had just begun, and the official censor immediately launched an attack, targeting the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple.

Not only the chiefs of the two departments, but from top to bottom, they are all rubbish.

In fact, after the Anshi Rebellion in the Tang Dynasty, the judicial power of Yushitai continued to expand, and the powers of the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple were continuously weakened. The authority of Yushitai has been further strengthened, and the status of officials has been greatly increased. In addition to ignoring the life and death of warriors, they fight all kinds of injustices, especially like to target the powerful prime minister and the emperor's relatives to show their uprightness.

If this type of person is used well, he can correct the emperor's mistakes, check and balance the power of the prime minister, and balance the situation between the government and the opposition; So it intensified, impeachment for the sake of impeachment.

But precisely because of this, Zhao Tingzhi's crimes were picked up yesterday, and many censors discussed impeaching the chief to show their position, but today it is the death of a person, and Zhao Tingzhi's coffin will be concluded .

Because they don't want this matter to affect the entire Yanguan group, they must first establish the truth.

However, this incident was originally a scandal at Yushitai, and Zhao Tingzhi's crimes had already spread throughout the streets and alleys of Bianjing. It has been said that since the Qing Dynasty, Taiwan has admonished officials to use their affairs, and the imperial court ordered them to discuss whether there is no right or wrong. They must win before they can. They specialize in private and indisputable matters in order to slander the officials..."

The hall was shocked.

Zeng Bu's words meant that officials should intervene in the orders of the court, big and small, and implement them according to their wishes. Otherwise, they would use some rumors to slander the courtiers, which can be called punishing.

And this old minister, who was ridiculed as a turtle, made a loud voice from his thin body, officially setting off a counterattack against the officials: "Today, Zhao Ting, the prime minister of the imperial censor, is thin and unrefined, and he is perverting the law for personal gain. Zhongliang, turn white to black, fall to the top, these actions are the actions of cronies, arrogant, such schemes are to remove the generals, weaken the imperial power, and it is unpredictable!"

"I also hope that His Majesty will severely punish the inaccurate supervision, clean up the admonitions of the imperial censor, lift up the clean and turbid, and sweep away the filth!"

Officials from Dali Temple, Ministry of Punishments, and even the officials who had long been dissatisfied with Yushitai, who had just been scolded bloodily, came out together: "Your minister waits for a second opinion!"

The censors were shocked and angry, and they, who had always been eloquent, were naturally unwilling to show weakness, and launched a comprehensive rebuttal, and the court suddenly became chaotic.

Sitting on the dragon chair, Zhao Ji watched with a blank expression on his face, and let the officials make noise, his heart was full of joy.

Of course, it is impossible to watch the play all the time, because after the quarrel between the officials, he is still the one to make up his mind: "Your Majesty, please decide!"

"It would be great if the courtiers were always so obedient..."

Zhao Ji sighed in his heart, and on the surface he had to show grief: "Wu Longtu and Zhao Zhongcheng are both the ministers of our Song Dynasty. They have suffered from this misfortune. I am very sad. I know the worries of the family, but there is one thing. Concern, who will catch the thief?"

The noisy hall fell silent again.

Yu Shitai closed his mouth, Zeng Bu and others also closed their mouths.

If Wu Juhou is still a special case, then the murder of Zhao Tingzhi, who followed closely behind him, shows that this beast is indeed fierce. On the one hand, they are not sure about capturing the thief, and on the other hand, they are also a little frightened. They don't want the whole family to follow in Wu Zhao's footsteps. ...

Zhao Ji looked down indifferently, although there was no sarcasm in his eyes, but there was also a strong sense of sarcasm and suppression invisibly: "Are you not confident to catch a thief?"

Wu Junmou, the servant of the Ministry of Justice, responded very quickly, and replied: "I tell your majesty, the suspect Ding thief is not a single person who is evil, but colluded with the enemy country, and only then can he kill two high officials of the court!"

Zhao Ji had indeed said before that an enemy country saw that the Song Dynasty had been in peace for a hundred years, and the people lived in peace, secretly stirring up trouble and plotting against the law. I didn't expect that the Ministry of Punishment would do nothing else. It was very quick to use this aspect, and immediately shirked responsibility.

However, Zhao Ji was not easy to get along with, and said indifferently: "No matter whether the Ding thief has accomplices or not, and how much the enemy's forces interfere, arresting criminals and thieves is the top priority today. How long will it take for this case to be brought to justice and punished in order to calm the anger of the people all over the world?"

The third secretary who was named fell silent immediately, Zeng Bu also closed his mouth, and his thin body returned to his usual calm. Obviously, after raising the authority of the prime minister, he will not participate in the specific capture of the thief, so as not to get burned.

Seeing that the atmosphere had cooled down again, Zhao Ji, who was sitting on the dragon chair, couldn't help but sneered. Just as he was about to continue suppressing it, he saw a figure in a scarlet robe: "Your Majesty, I wish to catch the murderer!"

The officials were stunned and looked over in disbelief.

Even Zhao Ji was stunned, leaning forward slightly.

Because the one who stood up was Gao Lian.

The Secretary of the Imperial City, who was impeached by Zhao Tingzhi and demoted a few days ago, actually took the initiative to arrest the murderer who killed Zhao Tingzhi?
Seeing the silence in the hall, Gao Qiu was also a little nervous, and said the speech he had prepared in advance: "I am from a humble background, and you are respected by your majesty. If you mention something to the Imperial City Secretary, you should be loyal to your duties and not show favoritism. Wu Longtu and Zhao Zhongcheng As an important minister of the court, the death of my court has damaged the dignity of my court, how can the murderer be allowed to go unpunished? I am willing to lead the Imperial City Division to crack this case and calm the storm as soon as possible!"

Yu Shi's body swayed, and his eyes turned red. Looking at that appearance, he wanted to imitate Ren Boyu and bump into the pillar, but he couldn't hit it, because Gao Qiu's words were not wrong, but the humiliation was too strong. .

Wu Junmou, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, and Zheng Zan, Prime Minister of Dali Temple, both breathed a sigh of relief and became nervous. It is good for someone to help them take responsibility, but if the Imperial City Division really handles the case, then they are really impeachment by the imperial censor The dead body is a waste of a vegetarian meal.

Zeng Bu also widened his eyes, looked at Gao Qiu carefully, and began to exchange glances with other important ministers, and they all saw a strong look of fear in each other's eyes.

Not to mention that Wen Chen felt that it was unacceptable, even Zhao Ji found that Gao Qiu was dazzling at this time.

He didn't want to calm down the turmoil as soon as possible, but if he took this opportunity to elevate the authority of the Imperial City Secretary, that would be good. He nodded slightly: "Gao Qing's family was ordered in danger. I am very relieved. I will leave this case to you. Don't disappoint me." , and don’t disappoint the officials!”

The towering white jade pillars of the Great Song Dynasty Hall, and the purple gold beams that frame the sea, the emperor of the imperial city raised his head to the sky, and bowed down to worship: "I obey the order!"
