Great Ye Empress

Chapter 248 Backhand
Now that Xue Zhi's confession is in Dali Temple, if Xie Yunchu wants to read it...you have to go to Dali Temple.

Xie Yunchu had a conjecture in his heart...

But because I haven't been able to see Xue Zhi's confession, I'm not sure.

She scrutinized the dossier, the emperor definitely did not want these two corruption cases to involve his two princes, especially...these two princes were also candidates for the emperor's consideration.

Therefore, the emperor must be eager... to stop both cases on Xue Zhi's body in the end.

Now Xue Zhi committed suicide in fear of the crime, leaving a confession letter, and a dead person came, making it impossible for the Censor Desk and Dali Temple to continue to investigate from Xue Zhi.

When Wang Qiudao took office in Taiyuan, he did not mention the granary corruption case first...

In this case of disaster relief and corruption, since the first prince wanted Xue Zhi, the minister of households, to take the responsibility, he should also take the opportunity to kill the third prince, but not kill the third prince... and break the third prince's arm, so that he can no longer be powerless Competing with him for the storage position is.

You can hear the meaning of the Censor Niu, the confession written by Xue Zhi before his death...covered all the crimes, and did not bite anyone else.

Even Shen Yanxing, who was most obviously involved in disaster relief and corruption cases, did not bite.

That's weird...

The dignified Minister of the Ministry of Housing is really going to die... and he shouldn't be so frivolous.

Lord Wang, the minister of punishment who came to the Censor's Terrace to assist in the trial, had just come out of prison. When he entered the door, he saw Xie Yunchu staring at the file and asked, "But what did you find?"

Wang Shilang heard that the last time Xie Yunchu found out that there was a problem with the granary in Taiyuan, he was fascinated by the ledger...

When Xie Yunchu heard the sound, he stood up and saluted Wang Shilang: "Not yet, has Li Shangjin recruited?"

Wang Shilang nodded and put his official hat aside: "Originally, Li Shangjin was bitten to death, but he still confessed until you brought back the officials from Taiyuan Prefecture. Not only did he confess the corruption case in Taiyuan Prefecture, Hangzhou Prefecture He also confessed to the matter, and said he wanted to fight for a lighter sentence! It’s just…”

Xie Yunchu poured Wang Shilang a cup of hot tea and handed it over: "Just?"

"It's just the news that the Minister of the Household Xue Zhi committed suicide in fear of crime. I don't know how to spread it to the prison. The Minister of the Household, who bit out Shen Yanxing before, actually changed his confession, saying that he knew that the Minister of the Household committed suicide in fear of crime, and did not dare to talk about others indiscriminately. , I have to explain honestly." Wang Shilang frowned.

The deeper the investigators investigate, based on the clues...the more they can know what the case is about, the only thing missing is evidence.

What's more, the corruption case in disaster relief is so serious, can Shen Yanxing, the eldest brother of the third prince, be the main disaster relief official?
Who doesn't know that Mr. Qian is the man of the first prince, and Shen Yanxing is the man of the third prince.

If it is only the household under the eldest prince's family who is greedy, Shen Yanxing, as a person of the third prince... has already seized the evidence, wiped out the household, and is loyal to the third prince, and he will remain silent for so long, sitting and watching the eldest prince become greedy. like this?
What Xie Yunchu couldn't figure out, he immediately understood...

It seems that the first prince and the third prince should have reached some kind of agreement, let Xue Zhi bear everything with his death, and what benefits the third prince will give the first prince.

What the third prince did was simply to keep Shen Yanxing and his own reputation. After all, the relationship between Shen Yanxing and the third prince was too close.

But the benefits the third prince gave to the eldest prince would never threaten him to compete for the throne, and it would make the eldest prince tempted...

Then there is only the position of Minister of Household.

The third prince may have promised the eldest prince, and the position of the Minister of the Household is still reserved for the eldest prince.

In other words... the person who will help the eldest prince win the position of minister of household.

Therefore, the eldest prince sacrificed Xue Zhi without hesitation.

Xue Zhigan will die...

First of all, I understand that the Censor's Thunder is investigating the case, and the crime he committed will inevitably lead to death.

Second, it should be Xue Shilang who was kidnapped, and he had to obey.

Mainly Xue Shilang was kidnapped.

Otherwise... Since it has been abandoned, and since he is about to die, what loyalty do you still have to the eldest prince?

Taking a step back, even if Xue Zhi wanted to be loyal to the eldest prince...

How could someone like Xue Zhi believe that the eldest prince would... let his son go after his death, instead of letting his son accompany him to die and eradicate the roots?

Just relying on the confidence in the First Prince?
If so, why did the eldest prince arrest Xue Zhi's son Xue Shilang as a threat?

Xue Zhi has been with the eldest prince for so many years, is it possible that he still doesn't know who the eldest prince is?
Knowing that he is the only bargaining chip that can make the eldest prince keep his son and Xue family's family, but when he is not sure that his family will be safe and sound, so simply give up this bargaining chip and die?
Xie Yunchu deduced that Xue Zhiding had prepared something to coerce the eldest prince, ensure the lives of his family members, and ensure the safety of Xue Shilang.

This is definitely not in Xue Shilang's hands, otherwise the eldest prince would just kill Xue Shilang directly.

The backhand that can coerce the eldest prince to dare not kill Xue Shilang, or even... the backhand who coerces the eldest prince to give Xue Shilang a prosperous life for the rest of his life, the weight... must be enough.

And this second hand should be in the hands of someone Xue Zhi trusted.

Xie Yunchu never thought that Xue Shilang would be in the hands of the third prince, nor did he guess that the third prince coerced Xue Zhi to take on everything for himself...

This is because, yesterday, the Censor Niu said that the eldest prince interceded for Xue Zhi's family after Xue Zhi's death.

If Xue Zhi was under the control of the third prince, he would commit suicide by taking everything on his body, and the first prince would definitely not agree.

In a corruption case, the minister of the household under his family died and suffered heavy losses, but he saved the eldest brother-in-law of the third prince. The eldest prince has such a big heart... Can he still plead for Xue Zhi's family?

However, in order to be cautious, she must go to the First Prince's Mansion today to confirm...

The case has been investigated so far, and a minister of the household has died, and the emperor wants to stop here and not implicate the two princes.

How can something so cheap?
If so, what is the point of Xie Yunchu doing so much?
Then we have to find a way to force out the backhand left by Xue Zhi.

Let the emperor think that this case can't end here.

Xie Yunchu went to the Censor Prison first.

She stood at the gate of Cushitai Prison and said to the jailer, "First take Xue Zhi's daughter out and find a place to lock it up alone. No one is allowed to see her without my order!"

"Yes!" The jailer of the Censor's desk responded and led people.

The first person Xie Yunchu met was Xue Zhi's wife, the Wang family.

Wang stayed in prison for a few days, her hair was messy, and when she came to this dark, blood-smelling torture chamber, her legs were all soft.

Seeing that sitting behind the table, there was a young gentleman who was as delicate as white jade and dressed in an official uniform.

The Wang family remembered that this was the Xie family's little prince, Xie Yunchu, the champion of Sanyuan Jidi.
