Chapter 48
"Speaking of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Du Jing, I heard that the Ministry of Criminal Justice still detains students from the Literary School to assist in the investigation of Chunwei's fraud case. Has this case not been clarified yet?"

Du Jing glanced at Gu Shihai intentionally or unintentionally, and seeing that he hadn't said a word, he lowered his head and replied: "This case is very involved, and the rumors in the capital are still going on, if the matter is not cleared up, if you release him rashly, I'm afraid it will cause commotion in the capital." .”

"What? According to you, the person who wrote the complaint has become a suspect?"

"Your Majesty, I have been handling cases for more than ten years, and I have never lost sight of them. This time, first someone wrote an essay to incite public sentiment, then the prison was nearly escaped by thieves, and now there is another student who wrote a letter. Someone did it on purpose."

"Then tell me, why do you conclude that what the students say is a rumor? Is it also based on your ten years of experience?"

"My minister is collecting evidence." Du Jing replied confidently.

With his answer like this, Ye Qinghuai was helpless.

She looked at Gu Shihai and said, "Old Gu Ge, it is better to guard against the mouth of the people than against Sichuan. If there is a sudden change in the people's sentiments, the rioters will rush into this Hall of Supreme Harmony and chop off the heads of you and me. Are you not afraid? "

It has been more than three months since she was reborn, but the chaos of the rebels entering the city is still vivid in her memory, which is something she never wants to experience again.

However, Gu Shihai seemed to have heard something funny, laughed twice, and said: "How can a few weak scholars make His Majesty look timid? Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will ensure that this palace is solid. Your Majesty only I just need to recuperate with the nobles in the harem.”

His tone was sarcastic, and he didn't take Ye Qinghuai's words to heart at all.

Ye Qinghuai clenched her fists silently, but finally let go, and said: "Be careful sailing for thousands of years, Mr. Gu Ge's black gauze was not blown by strong winds. If you lose a lot because of a small one, the loss outweighs the gain." .”

Gu Shihai looked at Ye Qinghuai with a stern expression, and said: "I will remember your majesty's admonition."
-
In the afternoon, Wenxuan Hall.

Ye Qinghuai didn't have a lunch break today, so she came to Wenxuan Hall early after lunch.She didn't read the book to review the class, but sat at the desk and thought about things.

It seems that it is not feasible to want the Ministry of punishment to release people.In other words, the students drumming must happen.

She reminded Li Baoquan again today that no matter what happens, his Imperial Army Zuo Yawei will not move without authorization.

There are another [-] Youya Guards in the Forbidden Army who are under the control of the Ministry of War, but theoretically they cannot be transferred without the emperor's oracle.In addition, the only guard force in Beijing is the [-] Gyeonggi Guards.After the reorganization of Gyeonggi Guard during the Xingrui period, the position of commander was abolished, and now it is actually Chang Shi who has the final say.However, Gu Haiwang, the chief clerk of Gyeonggi Guard, caused trouble at this juncture, and was ordered by the Jingzhao Mansion to supervise him, and was detained in the mansion.

For the current plan, the only way is to find a way to stabilize them while the Gyeonggi guards have no leaders, and then use the power of the left yamen guard to drag the right yamen guard, so that Gu Shihai has no soldiers to use.Finally, find a way to get Chen Yuansi to bring court officials to argue with Gu Shihai in order to resolve the fight.

The best result is to achieve the student's wish and take the opportunity to rectify the punishment department.

Ye Qinghuai suddenly remembered the young man named Lin Yuxiu.This person is full of economics and has the ambition to serve the country. He is young and seems to have no one to rely on in the court. He should be a useful talent.If there is a vacancy in the Criminal Department, we have to find a way to push him in.

"Your Majesty." Lu Yanchen's voice interrupted Ye Qinghuai's thoughts.

Only then did Ye Qinghuai come back to her senses, stood up and said, "Sir."

Lu Yanchen saluted her and said, "If Your Majesty comes early in the future, let someone tell you so that I can enter the palace earlier."

"It's not early. Sir came just in time."

Lu Yanchen glanced at Ye Qinghuai, as if he hesitated to speak.

However, Ye Qinghuai had long been used to his hesitant to speak and didn't pay attention.After Lu Yanchen sat down, she asked straight to the point: "Sir, is the sacrificial wine okay?"

Lu Yanchen was looking at her darkly, but when she saw her looking up at him, he immediately looked away, and replied: "The sacrifice wine is still good. He has already arrived in Leizhou, and he will arrive at the mine in about four or five days."

"Does Song Zhe have any clues?"

Lu Yanchen shook his head.

Ye Qinghuai thought to himself, tomorrow is the fourteenth day of March, the day of Chengtianmen's change, it seems that Song Zhe can't wait.

She looked up at Lu Yanchen, and said seriously: "Sir, I have something to ask you."

Hearing what Ye Qinghuai said, there seemed to be a gleam in Lu Yanchen's eyes, but his expression remained as usual, and he said, "Please speak, Your Majesty."

"Sir, do you know the establishment situation of the Gyeonggi Guard? If Chief Shi Gu Haiwang is not here, who will the Gyeonggi Guard listen to?" Ye Qinghuai asked anxiously.

Lu Yanchen was a little surprised, and asked, "This is what His Majesty wants to ask the minister?"

Ye Qinghuai nodded solemnly, and said: "This matter is very important, please tell me the truth, sir."

Lu Yanchen sighed silently, his expression darkened, and he said, "There are eight guards and nine gate guards under the Jingji Guard. Among the eight guards, only Tianwei Guard and Shenwei Guard are responsible for the security and defense of the capital city. , the other six guards are stationed around Gyeonggi, and they are not allowed to enter the city without the dispatch of the Ministry of War. The Nine Gate Guards are responsible for changing the defense of the Nine Gates of the capital, and generally cannot leave their posts without authorization. According to regulations, the Gyeonggi Nine Gate Guards, Tianwei Guards, and Shenwei Guards need the emperor The Tiger Talisman can only be mobilized. The other six guards are holding the Tiger Talisman of the Ministry of War. However, I heard that Gu Haiwang has a high reputation in the Gyeonggi Guard, and he has violated the regulations several times to transfer troops."

Ye Qinghuai recalled today's controversy in court, Gu Haiwang's disturbance this time brought about Xiaoqiwei who should not have appeared in the capital, but no one mentioned it, which is enough to show that he is indeed a man of integrity in Jingjiwei.

"Then now, if he is not in the Gyeonggi Guard, who else can say?" Ye Qinghuai asked.

Lu Yanchen pondered for a while, and said: "Gongji Guards have been the generals of the guards since the beginning of history. If we talk about mobilizing the overall situation, I'm afraid no one can do it."

Ye Qinghuai nodded.

She thought about it for a long time, and then asked: "There is still one thing I don't understand. Chen Ge and Gu Ge have been at odds for so many years, why can they still work together in peace? Is there any secret between them?"

Lu Yanchen was taken aback by her question, and said: "The meichen really doesn't know the relationship between the two of them, so I can't explain to His Majesty."

Ye Qinghuai was not disappointed, she just tried to ask, and did not expect Lu Yanchen to give her an answer.

"By the way, sir, there is one person who needs more attention, sir." Ye Qinghuai suddenly changed the subject, and said, "Li Wenqing, the censor doctor, he was ordered to supervise the case of Gu Haiwang, and I am worried that he will be in danger. You know a lot of strange people in Beijing, and I hope you can take care of them."

Seeing Lu Yanchen nodding, Ye Qinghuai said: "Sir, today's classwork should be like this. There are many things in Beijing recently, and I still have things to arrange."

After finishing speaking, she gave a respectful gift to Lu Yanchen.

Lu Yanchen stood still, still hesitating to speak.

"Is there anything else, sir?" Ye Qinghuai then asked.

Lu Yanchen was silent for a while, and said, "Has Your Majesty finished repairing that small portrait of my minister?"
