Chapter 503 Wang Yuyang was ordered to investigate the case
The yamen runners of Shuntian Prefecture arrested some people who spread paper, but more people ran out. Then the Ministry of Justice also dispatched, and finally forced the patrol battalion to come forward, arresting nearly a hundred people!
Although these people were dressed in scholarly clothes, they were all beggars, gangsters, who worked as soon as they gave them some money and were illiterate at all.
Originally, the Ministry of Justice, Shuntian Prefecture, and Dali Temple were suffocated by Zhou Yingqiu's case and had no way to deal with it. After such a fuss, they couldn't suppress it even if they wanted to, but they had no right to investigate the case and were no longer in mind. They could only pray to King Xin to return to Beijing as soon as possible.
The fake scholar was arrested, and the real scholar became even more angry. He shouted for a long time in the Ministry of Justice, Shuntian Prefecture, and Dali Temple. Seeing that it was useless, they all gathered at the gate of the palace, shouting, "You want the court and the emperor to give me an explanation."
The emperor in the palace was not here, and no one was in charge of the affairs, so naturally no one gave him an explanation.
Cining Palace.
Empress Dowager Zhang tidied up her clothes for Xiao Yongning and reminded her: "You are a princess, so you are not allowed to be in good shape, especially when dressing, you must be decent, do you know?"
Xiao Yongning opened his eyes wide and nodded, showing a very well-behaved look.
Empress Dowager Zhang sighed lightly. The little girl grew older and older. She didn't know what she had learned with her brother-in-law. The mess in the palace all day long made her very worried.
Huan'er came in from outside and whispered, "Empress, it's nothing, it's just a group of scholars fighting at the palace gate, or it's the business of Zhou Shangshu."
Empress Dowager Zhang shook her head and said, "The emperor and King Xin are not in the capital. Who are they making trouble for?"
Huan'er reached out to clean Xiao Yongning's clothes and said, "Who said it was no, but the capital has been very lively these days, and the emperor is afraid he will be shocked when he comes back."
Empress Dowager Zhang glanced at Huan'er and was about to speak, Xiao Yongning raised his little face and said with a crisp voice: "Uncle Emperor would not be shocked. He once said 'Scattering a wide net, catch big fish'. Uncle Emperor must be casting a big net!"
Empress Dowager Zhang actually thought it was the case, but it was different for the little guy to say it. She patted Xiao Yongning's head and scolded: "Don't go to Jingyang Palace in the future. Don't learn these messy things!"
The little girl flattened her mouth, rolled her big eyes without responding.
Empress Dowager Zhang took care of the little girl's clothes and said, "Okay, go and stay in the palace honestly."
As soon as Empress Dowager Zhang let go, the little girl immediately ran out, and shouted, "I'll go to Jingyang Palace to play with Aunt Li."
Empress Dowager Zhang suddenly raised her eyebrows and anger surged in her heart.
Huan'er smiled softly and said, "Empress, the emperor is not here, Miss Li is still well-educated and well-educated. It would be good for the princess to have more contact with her."
Empress Dowager Zhang glanced at her, sighed, and said, "I am also working hard. I used to have a headache with the emperor. Finally, the emperor grew up and got such a little devil... By the way, what is Eunuch Liu doing?"
Now the eunuch Liu Shimin, the eunuch who is the chief eunuch in the palace, is the biggest. He needs to deal with such a big deal when going out of the palace.
Huan'er thought for a while and said, "It seems like she has left the Silijian, I don't know where to go."
Empress Dowager Zhang nodded and said, "The emperor should have made arrangements. Let's take it lighter and accompany me to Renshou Palace to see the old concubine."
"Yes." Huan'er said.
Liu Shimin left the Silijian, headed south, passed through Guiji Gate, and came to Liushemen.
Wang Yuyang wore a black gauze hat, two bead chains hanging down, and was wearing a Navy Blue General Head Crew, with wide shoulders and thin waist, making him look quite heroic.
In front of her, a group of young girls and women stood neatly, with more than a dozen people, all dressed in similar costumes to Wang Yuyang, waving their long swords with their characteristics, and shouting from time to time, which looked very pleasing to the eye.
Wang Yuyang carried his hands on his back, and while walking, he shouted to the group of people in front of him in a very solemn manner, "First of all, you must be clear-minded and quick-witted, flexible in mind, and training your body will help you clear your mind..."
She found these people through great hardships, so Wang Yuyang trained them with great care.
Liu Shimin entered the door, looked at it from a distance, and nodded secretly.
Feng Zhu stood beside him, but he was very worried and said, "Brother-in-law, it's these girls..."
Before he could finish speaking, Liu Shimin turned to look at him.
Feng Zhu was stunned, then twitched his mouth and smiled apologized: "Young guy is a slut, but the little guy said that only these spoiled ladies can really make a case?"
Liu Shimin held the whisk in his hand, looked at Wang Yuyang and his group of people, and said lightly: "The emperor does not need six doors to investigate the case, what he needs is someone to do things."
Feng Zhu felt moved, then nodded honestly and said, "I understand."
Wang Yuyang soon noticed Liu Shimin, ran over quickly, hugged his hands tightly and said, "You have met Eunuch Liu and Eunuch Feng."
Liu Shimin smiled, took a step forward, and said, "Captain Wang, you should know what's happening outside the palace, right?"
Wang Yuyang's eyes lit up and said, "Dad father-in-law, do you want to investigate the case of Shangshu Zhou?"
Liu Shimin nodded and said with a smile: "No, but this case is a bit complicated. I'm afraid it's difficult for you, the Shintian Mansion, to find out."
Wang Yuyang was stunned and put down his hand and said in confusion: "Isn't the evidence conclusive? There are books of corruption, and those who accept bribes have testimonies, collusion, oppression, and letters as evidence. What else is difficult to investigate?"
Liu Shimin looked at Wang Yuyang, thought for a while, walked closer and whispered: "Some things are inconvenient to say, so you can investigate corruption and bribery, which involves 'collusion and oppression of the local area'... This is known or instructed by the emperor, and it is related to the political reform of the court."
Wang Yuyang felt enlightened and whispered: "Shangshu Zhou is the Minister of Personnel. It is natural for him to communicate with local officials and reprimand him. The officials understand."
Liu Shimin smiled and said, "It's good that General Wang understands it. Also, this matter must be decided quickly. The case must be closed before King Xin returns to Beijing. The emperor must not be blocked at the city gate."
Wang Yuyang raised his hand suddenly and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, my father-in-law, the official must find out the case before Xin Wang returns to Beijing!"
Liu Shimin was about to nod, but Wang Yuyang said in embarrassment again: "Dad, I'm afraid the officials will not be able to enter the Ministry of Personnel..."
Liu Shimin smiled and said, "The Zajia knows, let's go and follow the Zajia to announce the imperial edict."
Wang Yuyang was stunned, and Liu Shimin had already turned around.
Wang Yuyang quickly explained and hurriedly followed Liu Shimin.
Liu Shimin did not leave the palace, but turned around and headed straight to Wenzhao Pavilion.
Wang Yuyang followed Liu Shimin, his eyes lit up, and he pretended to be curious: "Dude, is this matter also involved in Wen Zhao Pavilion?" A minister of the Ministry of Personnel is already big enough. If King Xin is involved, it would be a shocking case.
Liu Shimin smiled but said nothing.
Wang Yuyang's heart was thrilled and he couldn't help but open his eyes.
‘Big case big case…’ She was ecstatic.
Liu Shimin brought people into Wenzhao Pavilion. Now the only way to come to the sect is here. When he saw Liu Shimin, he hurriedly came out and raised his hand and said, "Eunuch Liu is here, I wonder what to order?"
Liu Shimin took an imperial edict and slowly opened it and said, "Come to the sect to receive the edict!"
Lai Zongdao was shocked. This intention came from Liaodong, which must be extraordinary!
"I came to Zongdao to receive the order!" Lai Zongdao knelt on the ground.
Liu Shimin glanced at him and said, "The Cabinet was abandoned for a long time, and all officials were at a loss, which was not conducive to the court and hindered national affairs. From now on, Wen Zhao Pavilion was moved to the Cabinet... King Xin Zhu Youjian was diligent, conscientious, loyal, righteous and kind, and was promoted to the Prime Minister of Government and the Prime Minister of Government as the Chief Minister of the Cabinet. Lai Zongdao, who was dedicated to the country, maintained integrity, and made many achievements. He was awarded the title of Grand Secretary of the Dongge and presided over the government affairs of the Cabinet!"
Although he had already known it, he was still very excited when he heard the imperial edict. Lai Zongdao shouted: "Abide by the imperial edict, thank the emperor for his kindness!"
Liu Shimin smiled and handed the imperial edict to Lai Zongdao, and helped him.
Lai Zongdao stood up, looked at Liu Shimin and smiled: "Thank you, father-in-law."
Liu Shimin looked at Lai Zongdao and smiled and said, "Sir, no, Lai Pavilion Master, King Xin is not here, Wen Zhao Pavilion will move to the cabinet as soon as possible, and the family will also notify the General Staff to move away."
Lai Zongdao became more respectful and said, "Thank you, Eunuch."
Liu Shimin glanced at Wang Yuyang and said, "Let's go, Master, this emperor, you are not in the capital, you have to take responsibility."
Lai Zongdao naturally heard what Liu Shimin was referring to, frowned and said, "What is the father-in-law talking about, Shangshu Zhou?"
Liu Shimin said: "Yes, the emperor's pacification of Liaodong is a merit. It is also a great event for our Ming Dynasty. We must solve these problems before the emperor and Wang Xin returned to the capital."
Lai Zongdao knew it, but hesitated and said, "The lower official knows, but, Shangshu Zhou, Wen... the cabinet is afraid that there is no right to investigate and deal with it, right?"
As soon as Lai Zongdao finished speaking, Wang Yuyang stepped forward and raised his hand and said, "George, the lower official is the chief constable of the Six Gate, and has the right to investigate the officials of the court above the third rank."
Lai Zongdao had long recognized Wang Yuyang. These six doors were not far from Xihua Gate, and you could see them when you enter and exit the palace. I thought it was a little trick for the emperor to please women, but I didn't expect it to come in handy at this time. He had the usual thinking of literati or traditional men looking down on women, and he didn't care about Wang Yuyang. This was clearly a way for the emperor to protect Zhou Yingqiu.
After pondering for a while, Lai Zongdao looked at Liu Shimin and said, "The official understands, so I will order it to the Ministry of Justice and order them to investigate thoroughly."
Wang Yuyang raised his eyebrows and raised his voice and said in a deep voice: "Here, the Ministry of Justice has no right to investigate the Minister of Personnel, only my six doors can have it."
Lai Zongdao looked a little irritable. If Liu Shimin hadn't been here, he would have scolded Wang Yuyang long ago. He nodded slightly with his mind and said, "Well, then you can go and check it."
"As for orders!" Wang Yuyang looked happy, and then said, "The officials need to dispatch Shuntian Prefecture and the Ministry of Justice. They also invite the cabinet master to give the cabinet order."
Lai Zongdao's face remained unchanged, and his eyes were fixed on Liu Shimin. Not to mention that he, the newly appointed cabinet master, could not order the Ministry of Justice even when King Xin was here, and he would discuss it with the Minister of Justice to do things.
Liu Shimin understood and took out a token from his arms and handed it to Wang Yuyang, saying, "With this gold medal, you can dispatch the Ministry of Justice and Shuntian Prefecture's servants. If necessary, you can also go to the Ministry of War to dispatch the patrol battalion to assist."
There are still ten orders left to enter a new realm. Please help me!!!
