Chapter 406 Minister of Punishment

"Your Highness, do you want me to go with you?"

Su Zhenting also noticed the seriousness of the situation and asked.

Shaking his head, Li Chen said, "No need, the burden on you is heavy enough now. Let's deal with what you have on hand first."

When Su Zhenting heard this, he stopped insisting and stood up and sent Li Chen out of the general's mansion.

Seeing Li Chen go back, the more Su Zhenting thinks about it, the more he becomes, the worse he is.

When someone with a discerning eye saw what happened to Xu Changqing, he knew it was something false.

But it is precisely because it is false that it is easy to become an ironclad case. Some people deliberately put Xu Changqing to death and cut off the East Palace's finger.

When he returned to his study, Su Zhenting breathed lightly. He decided not to interfere more in this matter, and he would do whatever the prince arranged.

Even though he and the prince are now in close alliance, the prince is the master after all, and he is the second. If he intervenes too much, he will not be smart.

On this end, after Li Chen returned to the East Palace, the official documents from the Ministry of Justice had been sent over.

Li Chen just glanced at it for a few times, threw it to Sanbao, and sneered: "What a stern evidence. From someone reported it to the search for evidence of crime, he immediately arrested Xu Changqing and was imprisoned. Now he sent the official documents here, and it took him a long time to share it.

effort!"

"If the Ministry of Justice had always had such efficiency, no one in the Qin Empire would dare to break the law!"

Sanbao squatted down and picked up the official document, sent it respectfully to Li Chen's case, and smiled bitterly: "Your Highness, anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is a deliberately frame-up, and they have no intention of hiding it than Your Highness. No matter how many arrangements are made,

There are always loopholes, so I just did it quickly on the surface, and all I wanted was to take away Xu Changqing's chess piece."

"The important thing now is how to deal with it."

"Is it abandoned child or exchange."

Three treasures pointed out the core in one sentence.

Li Chen sat in his seat, his expression as cold as ice.

After only a moment of thinking, he said, "Go and call Qian Shiyan."

Qian Shiyan, the newly appointed Minister of Justice and a fellow member of Zhao Xuanji, but he also has another identity, that is, he is a student of Wang Tenghuan, who was demoted by Li Chen to the prefect of the capital.

In the court, the connections were complicated.

Zhao Xuanji, a few people in the cabinet, worked hard for so many years, and the key positions of many departments and the middle-level positions of the central government of the court are almost all disciples of them. Their power is so profound that the current Eastern Palace is completely incomparable.

And these are the fundamental reason why the powerful ministers can fight against the imperial power after they have expanded to a certain extent.

Even the Emperor of Daxing could not completely eradicate it, let alone Li Chen now.

Just like the Ministry of Justice, the former Minister of Justice Teng Huaiyi asked Li Chen to cut him off, but so what? Zhao Xuanji and others could just raise someone at will. However, the Eastern Palace finally got a few positions and had to worry about it.

Who will go?

There is really too shortage of people.

This disadvantage is undoubtedly revealed at this time.

Soon, Qian Shiyan was brought over.

"My minister Qian Shiyan, I have seen His Highness the Crown Prince, His Highness, His Highness, Thousand Years, Thousand Years."

Qian Shiyan seemed to have expected Li Chen to summon him, so he was not anxious or slow, and was confident.

Li Chen looked up at Qian Shiyan and said slowly: "Don't give me a gift."

After Qian Shiyan stood up straight, Li Chen then said, "Does Lord Qian know the inside story in the Xu Changqing case?"

Qian Shiyan replied calmly: "Because this matter involves the imperial court's official appointment, he is a third-rank senior official. Xu Changqing has been in charge of affairs of the Ministry of Revenue for a long time. The ministers dare not neglect and personally inquire about it. After finding that it was a stern proof, he personally ordered the arrest.
