Chapter 292
After the death of the person, many clues have been cut off. Even if you want to investigate what happened more than 20 years ago, it may not be easy. In fact, it is not impossible to close the case of the abductor at this point. However, Wen Jiuxiao always thinks of the huge amount in the account book.
The amount of money was too much, and I couldn't feel at ease even after tossing and turning.
Millions of taels of silver! Whose hands did it fall into? And where will it be used? As an official of the imperial court, Wen Jiuxiao could not close the case without conscience.
The same goes for Mr. He. Even though he smiles at everyone and looks like a good guy, he actually has persistence in his heart.
So, the two packed up all the evidence and testimony and entered the palace. Since the case cannot be closed, let's make the matter bigger!
"...I thought it was just an ordinary case of kidnapping and trafficking of girls. Unexpectedly, the more I dug into it, the more information there was. The amount of money involved was too large. It seemed that officials from the DPRK and the Central Committee were also involved. I didn't dare to take matters into my own hands...
"
Emperor Taikang looked through the account books presented with an expressionless face, and was very shocked in his heart. Who was so bold that he dared to attack even the daughter of an official? Isn't this too crazy? Where did such a large amount of money go in the end...
Emperor Taikang closed his eyes. He thought of the eldest prince who had disappeared long ago, the second prince who was exiled, and the third prince who was imprisoned. Are there any of them behind this case?
Millions! Who is so brave?
Emperor Taikang took a deep breath and opened his eyes. His eyes fell on He Zheng and Wen Jiuxiao, and there was a bit of relief in his eyes. These two ministers have always been capable. This time, they also discovered the clues. They are in Dali Temple.
He was very relieved.
If there were rewards based on merit, He Aiqing and Wen Aiqing would have been promoted long ago. However, when Dali Temple was placed in the hands of others, Emperor Taikang was worried and had to suppress them all the time.
"...Since it was the two beloved princes who discovered the clues, I have to help you investigate this case. Investigate it carefully and thoroughly. Don't worry about the rest. I am here..." Emperor Taikang directly ordered.
He Zheng and Wen Jiuxiao both breathed a sigh of relief. With the emperor's support, they felt relieved and could free their hands and feet to investigate.
In the morning, the emperor got angry and scolded all the courtiers in the palace, "...a Yapo whose official records are recorded in the crotch is actually the biggest human abductor in the Daqing Dynasty in private! You have been doing evil for more than 20 years, and you are actually
I have no idea! Touch your conscience, are you worthy of what you are talking about? Are you worthy of the official uniforms you wear? Are you worthy of the salary I give you?"
The ministers below were extremely shocked. When did such a shocking case happen in Beijing? Then they suddenly realized: No wonder the Minister of Punishment and the Governor of Jingzhao frequently ran to Dali Temple, and they didn't care if they didn't look good. Oh, as long as they can grab it
After all, who cares about face?
These two old boys were quite well informed, but they were so ignorant that they didn't even let the news out.
For a time, many people looked at these two people with evil eyes.
The Minister of Punishment and the Governor of Jingzhao secretly complained in their hearts. They were now sure that they had been tricked. If they knew that the water behind this case was so deep, they would not be able to go to Dali Temple to ask for someone under any circumstances! But now.
They couldn't say anything, they could only smile bitterly.
"...You shout "long live me, long live me" every day, and I will be pissed to death by you..."
Emperor Taikang was in a bad mood, because he didn't like the courtiers in the palace.
With the support of the emperor, the investigation went smoothly than before, but it only stopped at Third Master Bai.
Yes, the person behind it came to light. It was Mr. Bai Sanye who had been released from Beijing as an official many years ago. Wen Jiuxiao personally went to any place to escort the person to Beijing for trial.
Mr. Bai denied it at first, but after seeing the evidence, he confessed. Mr. Bai and his adult son were sentenced to death, and the remaining female relatives and minor men were all made official slaves.
The fourth brother of the Bai family has long been separated. Although the other three brothers, who are brothers, have also been affected, they are not affected too much. In the case of Bai Guogong in Beijing, because Bai Guogong did not intercede for his brothers, he stood up and expressed his position calmly.
: He believes in the emperor and believes that the law will not wrong a good person. If his third brother really does something illegal, he will never cover it up.
In addition, his eldest daughter was the empress of the palace, so the emperor only fined him three years' salary because of his pregnancy.
With the death of Caishikou's head, this sensational kidnapping case came to an end. All the officials in the court breathed a sigh of relief, but there was no smile on Wen Jiuxiao's face.
He always felt that something was wrong, it was going too smoothly. Those evidences and those people seemed to have been arranged by someone to be sent to him. There seemed to be an invisible hand behind the scenes controlling everything.
Also, there were some clues that clearly didn’t add up, but Mr. Bai confessed too quickly.
Therefore, Wen Jiuxiao did a very bold thing. Before execution, he replaced Mr. Bai. In other words, the man who was beheaded was not the real Mr. Bai at all.
Yu Zhi also knew about this because she was the one who helped change people and stole them out.
"How about I help you again?" Yu Zhi asked kindly when he saw that Jiuxiao was at a loss.
Wen Jiuxiao looked at her, Yu Zhi touched his nose and said, "I always feel that Duke Bai is too hypocritical. I don't like him. As a Duke, he doesn't know anything about what his brothers are doing."
?Even if it’s really Bai San, what about the silver? A total of fifty thousand taels of silver were found, which doesn’t match up at all.”
"What are you going to do?" Wen Jiuxiao asked.
Yu Zhi smiled proudly, "Of course I'll go to Duke Bai's Mansion at night, maybe I'll find something new." Afraid that Wen Jiuxiao would stop him, he added, "There's no danger, so just take a walk.
."
Wen Jiuxiao's forehead was covered with black lines, "No! I have my own opinion on this matter. Aren't you saying that the weather is getting warmer and you are clamoring to plant flowers, and you still want to make clothes for me?"
"You heard me wrong!" Yu Zhi said with a dull expression. How hard did she have to think before she wanted to make clothes for him? "I obviously said that I wanted to find a tailor to make clothes for me." Originally, Wen Jiuxiao was involved, but now...
…Gone.
"Okay, okay, okay, blame me! I heard wrong." Wen Jiuxiao quickly comforted her, "We Zhizhi are so beautiful, we must make more beautiful clothes. My husband likes my wife to dress up in all kinds of ways."
Yu Zhi pouted, "Forget it, he's kind enough to help, but he still doesn't want it. He has his own opinions? Humph, he has his own opinions!"
By the way, these two moonlights are paying attention to the abduction and trafficking case, and have completely forgotten about Bai Youfu. He has already arrived at the place of exile, right? She won't worry if she doesn't take a look with her own eyes!
It’s only five hundred miles, not far!
Something was delayed today...
