"It is up to the Ministry of Punishment to decide whether to convict or not. Lord Yongmen may not have any control over it."

"you!"

"Okay, let's not argue." King De saw that the two people were speaking rudely and seemed to be about to quarrel, so he quickly stopped them.

"Master Guo, what have you found out now?"

"Your Highness, after interrogation, Shao Jin was full of lies. Now it has been basically confirmed that Shao Jin was the one who robbed the tax money. But yesterday, the Bingma Division only got 6,000 taels, and I am afraid he still has some in his hands.

"

"I don't care about this. Examine it carefully. You won't let go of even one tael of tax money!"

"Your Highness!"

When Yongmenzi Di heard this, he quickly said: "Your Highness, there is something fishy about this matter. As far as I know, Shao Jin wanted to get some money to buy gifts for his relatives, but the money was not enough, and the Imperial Guard Zuoxiang Camp

A man named Wen Ru introduced him to a jade dealer, saying that the jade dealer's goods had been robbed. As long as he could help get them back, the merchant would give Shao Jin some reward. Shao Jin just went there, so yesterday

Shao Jin just got the money, I think it must have been framed by someone. If Shao Jin really robbed the tax money, how could he still dare to use it everywhere?"

"Sir Yongmen, yesterday we specially took other batches of tax silver and official silver for Shao Jin to identify. Unfortunately, Shao Jin didn't know the special marks on the tax silver." Guo Dongcheng said.

"If he really stole the money, why did he wait until yesterday to use it?"

"Of course, if you use it on the same day, it will definitely reveal your flaws."

"Mr. Guo, is the Ministry of Punishment just relying on speculation when handling cases?"

"Of course not. As I said, the government officials have confirmed that it was Shao Jin who robbed it. And after an injury examination yesterday, the government officials did have a lot of scars on their bodies."

"Okay, in that case, why not let Wen Rulai confront him?"

"How can Wen Ru, a mere district co-president, come here?"

"Guo Dongcheng!"

"Yongmenzi Di, you show such an anxious look in front of His Highness. Is this the way to be a minister?"

The two were arguing and neither one was willing to give in. At this moment, a voice came over.

"Tax money, which is related to the lifeline of the imperial court, must not be taken lightly. The old minister suggested that the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment work together with the Imperial Guard Military Law Camp to jointly review it. It cannot be wrongly charged or misplaced."

The person who spoke was a prime minister in the court. Like Yongmen Zhen, he was a veteran minister and his words were very weighty.

"Let's do it this way, withdraw from the court."

After saying that, King De stood up and left.

Just a few steps after Yongmenzi Di walked out angrily, Guo Dongcheng chased him from behind.

"Master Yongmen, I was in the court just now. I had to deal with it impartially. Please forgive me, Master Yongmen."

Seeing Guo Dongcheng's sudden change of expression, Yongmenzi Di frowned suspiciously.

"Master Yongmen, you don't have to worry. Don't worry, I will always handle cases fairly. As long as there is enough evidence to prove Shao Jin's innocence, I will definitely let him go."

"Master Guo, you can actually ask Wen Ru. I believe that as long as he tells a lie, he will not be able to hide it from you."

"Oh, I don't want to, but you don't know that Wen Ru suddenly suffered a stroke last night and is now paralyzed in bed, unable to speak."

"What!" Yongmenzi Di was shocked, startling an official who happened to walk by him.

Guo Dongcheng immediately pulled Yongmen Zidi aside and said in a low voice: "Wen Ru really suffered a stroke. I have already asked someone to take a look."

"Didn't you say that he never gave Shao Jin any advice?"

"Yeah, after I said that, I had a stroke at night."

"This is a frame-up! Someone is definitely trying to harm Shao Jin!" Yongmenzi Di said, stamping his feet.

"I don't know about this. Anyway, let's find evidence quickly."

"What evidence?"

"It will be much easier to prove that Shao Jin did get the silver just yesterday."

"Okay, I will try my best, but can you please release Shao Jin from prison first? That child is a poor child. He was an orphan in Lijiang City back then. His parents died in front of him. I'm afraid he can't stand the stimulation.

."

"It's definitely not possible to release him, but I can ask someone to take care of him more. Don't worry, he won't be killed."

After saying that, Guo Dongcheng left.

Guo Dongcheng did not have any friendship with him, they were even hostile, because Guo Dongcheng had always looked down on Yongmen Zi Di and felt that if he had not had Yongmen Zhen as his backer, he would never have been able to climb to this position. In private, he also scolded him a lot.

Second-rate.

Such a person suddenly said such words to himself today, which made Yongmenzi Di very embarrassed.

Soon, two days passed. Because of this incident, Yongmen Zidi could not go to Shezhou City.

The preliminary interrogation between the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple and Junlu Yingtong has also ended. It is said that Shao Jin's guilt has been basically determined. The reason is that there is no evidence or witnesses to prove that Shao Jin is innocent.

After inspection, it was found that Shao Jin had indeed passed the official road on the outskirts of Beijing, and he indeed had the six thousand taels of tax money. Moreover, he had indeed seen the government officials and admitted to beating them.

Of course, when talking about the Yamen, Shao Jin still did not change his words and insisted that he had no idea at all.

As for Mr. Huang, he disappeared mysteriously, and no one in the huge capital knew about the jade merchant.

As for Wen Ru, she still had a stroke and was lying motionless on the bed. Yongmenzi Di also specially asked a doctor to go to Wen's house in the name of visiting him. However, the doctor looked at him for a long time and found nothing wrong.

The memorial has been submitted to the emperor. If there is no evidence to prove it, Shao Jin will be charged.

And if you rob the tax bank, you will almost be punished by execution.

In the past two days, Yongmenzi Di ran around everywhere, but found nothing. He could not find any evidence. The shopkeeper of Yiyuanfang said that he knew nothing but just knew the tax bank. When asked why he knew the tax bank.

, but the shopkeeper said that he was well-informed, and Yongmen Zidi was so angry that there was nothing he could do.

In desperation, Qiu Chan could not count on Yongmen Zidi, so she directly sent people to find Jin Chi, and asked Jin Chi to send an escort from the escort agency to Shezhou City quickly, and asked Chi Zhongtian to come quickly.

It will take at least half a month to go back and forth. Qiu Chan's only idea now is to save Shao Jin within this half month.

In the end, even Yongmen Zhen came forward in person and begged the emperor, and the emperor agreed to give him another month. If no evidence could be found within one month, he would be punished immediately.

In the past few days, Qiu Chan cried every day. Finally, at noon, Yongmen Zidi brought her good news, that is, Qiu Chan could go to the prison to visit Shao Jin.

When Qiu Chan came to the prison and saw Shao Jin, she almost couldn't believe her eyes.
