Chapter 147 I will only confiscate the property but not destroy the family!
Qi Ying was dumbfounded. How could he have confidence in himself? He was the one who did this!
As the saying goes, truth cannot be hidden. If we really want to investigate, how can we find out clearly?
He doesn't think that the people in the Censorate, the Ministry of Justice and the Supreme Court are all good-for-nothings!
After hearing the emperor's arrangements, he became even more dumbfounded. Even though he was imprisoned in the Dali Temple, he was being guarded by eunuchs and soldiers from the Shanpu Camp!
Those soldiers only listen to the emperor. Even if you want to get the news, it would be harder than climbing to the sky!
He suddenly collapsed to the ground.
Yining said to Yifangfang,
"Tell them that during the interrogation, they must provide good food and drink to Master Qi Ying and the others, and not abuse them!"
"Whoo!"
Yi Guofang walked over and took off Qi Ying's hat and feather.
"Master Qi, we've offended you! Someone, take him away!"
Once the peacock feather on his hat was taken off, Qi Ying looked more like a deflated ball.
Although he took it off, he probably would never be able to wear it again in his lifetime!
Not only will he lose the ability to wear the hat and feather, he might even lose his head. This single misstep will lead to eternal regret!
Two burly guards came up and dragged Qi Ying away like a dead dog!
You said you would take good care of me, but who would be polite to someone who wants to rebel and kill the emperor?
This is what they call "when a wall falls, everyone pushes it; when a drum is broken, everyone beats it!"
Watching Qi Ying being dragged away, Mu Zhang'a felt a chill on his back, cramps in his calves, and a strong urge to urinate!
He tried his best to hold it in. If he really peed, he would be admitting his guilt. You are not in the same group with Qi Ying, so why are you afraid? If you are not afraid, why would you pee in your pants?
He was thinking quickly in his mind how to save Qi Ying and how to avoid being exposed!
Yining glanced at him, and Mu Zhang'a quickly lowered his head. He felt as if there was a knife in the emperor's eyes digging into his flesh!
Damn it, is this what it means to be guilty? Being afraid is not enough, you still have to say what you should say, he said in a hoarse voice,
"Your Majesty, the case is still unclear. Isn't it a bit hasty to confiscate the property now?"
Yining stared at him and said,
"I also think it's a bit early. If you can vouch for Master Qi and prove his innocence, then I won't copy it!"
Mu Zhang'a cursed in his heart, I can only guarantee him, but I don't know who will guarantee me!
He said hurriedly,
"I don't think Lord Qi would do such a thing, but since I have to be your guarantor, forget it!"
Yining Road,
"Since you can't even act as a guarantor, I'm afraid that if I'm negligent and the news leaks out, it will be detrimental to solving the case!
"Let's copy it first. If we can copy some correspondence or something, wouldn't it save the three judges some effort?"
Although the emperor spoke lightly, every word he said hit Mu Zhang'a's heart like a heavy hammer!
Qi Ying, ah Qi Ying, do you have the habit of writing a diary? If you write down everything we say, I, Old Mu, will be finished too!
Prince Gong secretly felt lucky. If he had been too deeply involved with Qi Ying and the others, today would have been the day he would be disgraced and even lose his head!
The defense of Iraq bowed and saluted,
"Your Majesty, shall I confiscate the property now?"
Yining waved his hand.
"Go ahead, but don't harass Mr. Qi's family, especially the children. Don't scare them!"
"Whoo!"
Iraqi defense gone!
Duan Hua came out of the class and played the game.
"Your Majesty, I have a script!"
"speak!"
"I am reporting to the Supreme Court that the military officials are forming cliques for personal gain, abusing their power for personal gain, and perverting the law, taking human lives with a cold shoulder!"
When Yining heard this, he was just wondering whether this military officer was upright or not, and was planning to investigate him thoroughly when he had time, but now someone was reporting him. Isn't this like someone falling asleep and receiving a pillow?
Yi Fangfang went over and took the memorial.
Yining opened it and took a quick look. It described in great detail when he formed a gang with whom, when he accepted bribes from whom, etc., with names, times and places.
Moreover, it even mentioned that he accepted 100,000 taels of silver from Zhang Moting. Yining wondered how they got the silver since he asked Yi Gai to seal off Zhang Moting's family.
"Military officer, how did you receive the money from Zhang Moting?"
The military officer was kneeling on the ground, trembling. He said,
"Your Majesty, I did not accept any bribes. It was just that Zhang Moting promised to give me 100,000 taels of silver, but I really didn't want it!"
Yining understood that it was not that he did not want it, but that he did not get it. She did not want to talk nonsense with him anymore, her face darkened and she said,
"The military officer is guilty of a heinous crime. He will be stripped of his official hat, relieved of all duties, and imprisoned in the Dali Temple to await trial!"
The military officer fell to his knees, his calves were cramped, his throat was dry and sweet, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. His head tilted and he hit the ground. He was scared to death!
The doctors rushed to rescue him, worked hard for a long time, knelt down and reported,
"Long live the emperor! The military officer has already died!"
He's dead, damn it, it's a blessing for him.
Du Shoutian said,
"Your Majesty, the military officer is dead, and there is no one to preside over the Dali Temple. Please make the decision, Your Majesty!"
Yining's mind raced, thinking that Duanhua was the military attaché, and he thought that the evidence was solid, but without even a confession, it would be difficult to convince the public.
It's a good thing that this guy was scared to death, otherwise he would not be able to handle these cases. The position of Dali Temple Chief is very important, and we must find someone who is well versed in the law and is fair and honest to be the Dali Temple Chief.
He thought for a while and a person came to his mind, Wang Jindou.
This person loves to study the law, and he is a man of integrity. He is not afraid of the powerful and is not greedy or possessive. This person can be used.
Then he asked,
"Where does Wang Jindou work?"
Du Shoutian thought for a moment and said,
"Wang Jindou is currently serving as a doctor in the Ministry of Revenue!"
Yining Road,
"Issue an edict, promoting Wang Jindou to the rank of Fourth Grade, and appointing him as Shaoqing of the Dali Temple. Let him preside over the case of Qiying and Wu Guanzheng!"
Mu Zhang'a came out again and said,
"Your Majesty, can a fifth-rank official like him take on such a heavy responsibility?"
Yining Road,
"Didn't I promote him to the fourth rank? Sometimes ability and rank aren't directly proportional!"
Mu Zhang'a said again,
"Wang Jindou has been promoted twice without any accomplishment. This is against etiquette!"
Yining glared at him.
"I know he's well-versed in the law and is a fair and honest person. I feel no one else can thoroughly investigate these two cases. Otherwise, you should preside over the trial!"
Mu Zhang Aba was eager to preside over the trial himself so that he would not be exposed. But did he dare to do so? He did not have the courage to openly challenge the emperor!
Mu Zhang'a fell silent, and the others also shut up. They all took a deep breath in their hearts. When did the emperor become so flawless in his work?
It would be best if Qi Ying is okay. If there is something wrong, the emperor's arrangement will definitely get to the bottom of it.
He was just talking and confronting the emperor in the hall, but in the blink of an eye he became a prisoner. I guess he is in big trouble this time!
The emperor is too cunning. He has been assassinated for so many days, but no news has leaked out. He only revealed his trump card today. This is a real fatal blow!
