Chapter 240 Suspicious Clouds
Minzhi received re-education beside the Queen Mother, but Yinhu encountered difficulties in Jiangnan. He and Yinzhen read the test papers of Jieyuan and Jiuming Yayuan, and found that there was no problem with the test paper itself, and the handwriting of the name and the content of the test paper were also clear. For the above number, it doesn't look like someone has changed their name.Although I have the so-called real handwriting provided by Sun Jiagan.But it was collected secretly, without my consent and without witnesses.

A few people can deny it completely, and even bite back.Said that Sun Jiagan was jealous, forged evidence, and slandered the new imperial examination candidates.In the absence of conclusive evidence, and he couldn't be promoted immediately, he arrested these cases and compared their handwriting in court.You know, before Yinhu catches them, he has to consider their identities as scholars. The aura of disciples of Confucius cannot be desecrated at will. Without direct evidence, the court cannot be held. Yinhu is helpless.
Yinzhen was very calm: "Eighth brother, you are more familiar with Jiangnan than we are. If you believe that the examinee is innocent, then you should check all those who have the opportunity to touch the test papers. One is innocent." After a pause, the topic changed: "Of course, if you think the candidates are making a false accusation, then you should go to the governor of Liangjiang, and he will come forward to publicize the papers of Xie Yuan and ten Yayuan, so as to make those scholars dumb. He was speechless, but no matter what he did, he would lose the prestige of the imperial court. How could the imperial envoys come when there was an appeal?

With the spread of this trend, wouldn't the court become an entertainment tool for troublemakers.Eighth brother, you should consider this matter in front of the stage!Forget it, since we are here, we have to do something, you are familiar with here, no matter which of the two methods, you have to go to meet the governor of Liangjiang, Master Ge, eighth brother, why don't you recommend it to us? "

Yinhu's heart twitched for a while, he had a tofu-mouthed heart, but his brothers were all tofu-mouthed.These two suggestions seem sincere, but they are actually a huge trap. At this time, if you rashly go to see the governor of Liangjiang, you will definitely be drowned by the candidates' saliva, and even if Ge Li is really innocent, Yinzhen should come forward It is right to meet him, Yinhu, no matter what, we must avoid suspicion.

He didn't answer, but looked at Yinzhi, who was soy sauce all the way, with an inquiring look: "What do you think, third brother?" Yinzhi felt a resentment in his heart, and these two untouchables formed an offensive and defensive alliance, like heaven and earth Hong Yu, even if he was killed, he wouldn't believe it.Going to the south of the Yangtze River this time, on the surface, the Ministry of Rites has the right to participate in the investigation of the matter of the juzi, but Yinzhi weighed it himself, and life is not easy being sandwiched between these two younger brothers, but he still has the title of elder brother. Just like now, Yinhu kicked the ball over, but he didn't know how to catch it.

In desperation, Yinzhi had no choice but to continue playing soy sauce: "I mean, let's check the real situation of the candidates first, whether it is as stated in the pleadings, maybe there will be clues. It is the first time to control us. Interview." At that moment Yinhu nodded, and Yinzhen had no choice but to make a decision: "We don't have much time, Huang Ama means that before New Year's Eve, no matter what the outcome, we must return to Beijing."

As a result, this unannounced visit made Yinhu lose face very much, and the examinees really complained. In modern terms, everyone is scolding cheating fathers. solution status.The other two were looking at Yinhu's face, each with their own thoughts.

Of course, the investigation was not just to listen to grievances. The three of them somewhat learned some clues. The provider of the evidence was Zhang Boxing, who had a good reputation in Jiangnan and was known as "Jiangnan Yu Jackie".At this time, the old man was already 62 years old. Yinhu and the other three met beggars for stealing by chance. They were caught by Yinhu's servants on the spot and were about to beat him. The former dissuaded: "You have to forgive others and forgive others. Children must have difficulties in stealing."

The old man untied his money bag and handed it to the beggar, but the beggar knelt down in the street and said, "If the folks know that I took your things, they will drive me out of Jiangsu." The three princes were stunned, and finally, It was Yinhu who gave the child a silver ingot of five taels, and asked his family to escort him back to see what difficulties his family had.

Then he revealed his identity as an imperial envoy to the old man, and only then did he know that the old man in front of him was Zhang Boxing who was sent off by Wanmin when he left office in Fujian.

The three of them followed Zhang Boxing to the governor's mansion in Jiangsu. The elder presented a lot of evidence he had collected, and was willing to testify in court in person. Between words, Yinhu saw the shadow of He Zhuo, with the same fortitude and same tenacity.In addition to what he saw with his own eyes just now, the old man in the palace also praised him very much.He felt that the old man's words were more credible.

But after studying the old man's evidence, Yinhu broke into a cold sweat again. All these cases point to Ge Li as the mastermind behind the scenes, and more convincingly said that Ge Li and some officials wantonly accepted bribes from the squires. The total number is "immeasurable" three The imperial envoys were dumbfounded, and they spoke in a logical manner, as if there was such a thing, but after a closer look, there was no direct evidence to show.Everything is just his inference.

Yinhu was helpless: "Fourth brother, I didn't expect this to happen. Although Mr. Zhang is just speculating, with Mr. Zhang's official voice, he will never make a false accusation. In this way, the Governor's Mansion of Liangjiang is It’s not easy to go, and I really want to avoid suspicion.” Yin Zhen curled his lips: “Then Ge Li is a serious relative of the emperor, the second uncle’s cousin, and Xiao Jiu is also somewhat related. big or small!"

Yinhu wanted to roll his eyes, but finally held back.Yinzhi was a little timid: "Both sides are valued by Huang Ama, why don't you pass a booklet and ask Huang Ama's opinion?" At this moment, the corners of Yinzhen's mouth turned down: "What does the eighth brother mean? According to Check the clues given by Mr. Zhang, or if you don’t know about it, check from the examinee’s direction. Or stop and pass the notebook to Huang Ama and wait for news?”

A certain person is in a good mood. Sure enough, Yinhu is the most difficult thing in this matter, and it has nothing to do with him. He just needs to dig a hole at the right time and wait for Xiaoba to jump down by himself.I don't know who made this messy account, but let me take advantage of it.

What Yinzhen thought of, Yinhu also thought of, this is who deliberately framed him, deliberately created this sudden disaster, and wanted to drag himself into the quagmire.Who is the one?The old man wrote and directed it himself?It doesn't look like it. The old man has already made his position clear by sending a grader. He is at most a sideline.

If it's not the old man, who could it be?Yinhu thought of the massacre of homing pigeons years ago. Could this be a chain reaction?Who is it?I was originally confused and didn't know who that short-lived servant gave her the guts to pretend to be pregnant and pour dirty water on him.

And who exposed the fact that the second brother had his own undercover agent by his side?Thinking back to the secret losses I had suffered again and again, someone's heart was aroused, and for the first time he had a cold expression: "Third brother, you pass the notebook to Huang Ama, and write down all the crimes that the elder has counted on the governor of Liangjiang. Come on, let him make a decision. Fourth brother, didn't you say you were going to meet Mr. Ge? My younger brother also agreed. Mr. Ge is not only a relative of the emperor, but also one of the most important parties in this incident. Fourth brother, the spy It depends on the fourth brother."

Yinzhen squinted at him: "Are you sure you want to investigate? Then you have to investigate on the basis of finding him guilty. I have heard that when officials who have been investigated by the official department, the starting point is It's very low." At this time, Yinhu was no longer in a lazy state when he first came here, and immediately took over the conversation: "The evaluation standards of the Ministry of Officials are finally determined after a whole year's performance and public opinion. It doesn’t matter if you haven’t been investigated. I’ve also heard that in the household department, the public and private accounts of any incumbent official can be checked at any time as long as Lord Shangshu thinks it’s necessary.”

Yinzhen's face was calm, and he couldn't see the anger after being targeted at all: "Since the eighth younger brother has made a conclusion, it's time to investigate. It goes without saying whether to avoid suspicion or not. Since we want to investigate, the three of you and I only have different divisions of labor. In terms of relatives and closeness, Mr. Ge is just a subject of investigation, eighth brother, I hope you can be mentally prepared."

Yinhu blinked: "We are imperial envoys, and the duty of the imperial envoys is to investigate cases and find out the truth. My younger brother has always believed that fourth brother is ruthless."

At this point, Yinzhi next to him has no room to intervene. Yinzhen and Yinhu are the two heads of the inspection team. He should continue to play soy sauce.He coughed lightly: "That being the case, I'll go back to my room to write the notebook first, and you discuss it slowly." Yinzhi ran away, leaving only two people who were harmonious on the surface, but looked like lights and swords under the table.

The reason why Yinhu made up his mind to investigate Ge Li was not because he was really led by Yinzhen to do something to self-destruct the Great Wall.It was just because of the reasoning provided by Zhang Boxing that he felt that there was indeed something wrong with Ge Li.His contacts with Ge Li mostly happened when his second uncle was still alive. Back then, he was still a member of the Pearl Party and stood on Yinyin's side, and Ge Li was Yinfei's "adoptive father".Of course Yinhu had expressed respect to him.

At this time and at that time, after my second uncle passed away, my friendship with Prince Yu's Mansion was limited to a little brotherhood with Baotai Baoshou and the others, but my relationship with Ge Li, my second uncle, was much weaker. There was no other reason. This person likes extravagance, he is completely different from his cousin, with the status of a relative of the emperor, his life in Beijing is extravagant, and it doesn't fit well with the "poorer" Yinhu style, but it fits well Fourteen Appetite.

Coupled with all kinds of doubts, Yinhu suspects that Ge Li is a wolf in sheep's clothing all the time.
