Just as Qin Hao expected, he had just led people to escort Cheng Jushu into the Bingma Division barracks, and soldiers behind him reported that someone from the Inspection and Inspection Institute wanted to take Cheng Jushu away.
"Let them wait. Will He Jian be found?"
After Qin Hao took over the Military and Horse Division, he removed the two previous deputy commanders and promoted two new deputy commanders. He Jian was one of them. However, judging from today's situation, He Jian should have been promoted.
The princess bribed him, or he was originally an undercover agent sent by the eldest princess.
It has to be said that Ye Qingmei is indeed a genius. The Inspection Institute he founded has become the most powerful institution in the Qing Kingdom. After the business he founded was included in the royal treasury, it provided the eldest princess Li Yunrui with a steady stream of wealth.
Allow her to bribe all parties.
"Lord Commander...He Jian is dead."
"Dead?" Qin Hao frowned. He Jian's sudden death was actually not surprising. This was in line with the eldest princess's behavior. Once the matter was exposed, the relevant personnel would be eliminated.
"How did you die?"
"A family of thirty-two, old and young, all hanged themselves to death. Jingzhao Mansion said they committed suicide out of fear of crime."
Qin Hao was so angry that an ant could live in vain, let alone a living person. Even if he knew he couldn't escape, he would always try his best to find a way for his children to survive. Even if there was only a 1% chance, he would not give up easily. It was so obvious.
To kill people and silence them, Jingzhao Prefecture decided to commit suicide out of fear of crime.
It seems that the new Jingzhao Prefect is very likely to be the eldest princess's wife.
"Your Majesty, Zhu Ge, the head of the First Division of the Inspection Institute, would like to see you."
"Let him in."
In front of the military camp, a group of strong men in black and brocade uniforms were standing in front of their horses, confronting the soldiers guarding the military camp.
"The leader of my family asked Mr. Zhu to go in and talk."
After hearing this, everyone in the inspection institute could no longer suppress their inner anger and drew their swords one after another.
"How dare you, the Inspection Institute is handling the case, why don't you open the camp door quickly!"
Upon seeing this, the guards from the Military and Horse Division immediately pointed their spears at everyone in the Inspection Institute.
"Let your mother go, no matter what the inspection agency is, in the Military and Horse Department, you have to abide by the rules of the Military and Horse Department!"
This made everyone in the Inspection Institute very angry. Over the years, their Inspection Institute has become accustomed to being domineering in Kyoto. Apart from the imperial palace, there is no place they cannot enter. How dare a small military commander dare to
Stopping it, I simply didn’t pay attention to the words "Inspection and Inspection Institute".
Zhuge, the leader of the first department, also had a very ugly look on his face, but seeing that more and more people were gathering from the Military and Horse Division, and if a fight really broke out, they would definitely suffer, so he had no choice but to raise his hand and scold.
"Shut up and put the knife away. What are you talking about?"
"Take me to see your Commander Qin."
"Let's go."
Zhuge followed a soldier into the military camp. Looking at the orderly layout of the military camp and the patrolling soldiers walking past in neat steps from time to time, Zhuge realized that the Military and Horse Division at this time was no longer the same as before.
That's a useless army.
Just when Zhuge was stunned, he was already taken to the entrance of the Chinese army's tent. After the guards entered the tent and reported, they took him in.
"Master Zhu, why do you have time to come to my place today?" Qin Hao asked lightly while sitting behind the desk.
Although Zhu Ge was annoyed by Qin Hao's contempt, his official position was indeed higher than his, and this was his territory, so he could only endure it.
"Commander Qin, why should he ask questions knowingly? In the Yangliu Street assassination case, two murderers were killed and one was injured. Cheng Jushu is a spy of the Northern Qi Dynasty. This is the responsibility of the Inspection Institute. Commander Qin is also asked to hand over Cheng Jushu to Zhu."
Qin Hao sneered: "A spy from the Northern Qi Dynasty sneaked into the capital and assassinated Si Nanbo's son on the street. The inspection agency did not get any information beforehand. Was Mr. Zhu deceived? Or did he know this and let Cheng Jushu commit the murder?"
Zhu Ge was speechless for a moment and could only pretend to be calm and said: "The Inspection and Investigation Institute is directly under the jurisdiction of Your Majesty. Commander Qin does not need to worry about how to handle the case. If Commander Qin feels that there is something inappropriate in the Inspection and Inspection Institute, he can report it to His Majesty.
.”
"Lord Zhu, do you know that during the Yangliu Street assassination, someone bribed He Jian, the deputy commander of the Military and Horse Division, and transferred the nearby patrol team. We just received news that all thirty-two members of He Jian's family hanged themselves. Presumably He Jian was involved with this
The matter is closely related to the internal affairs of the Military and Horse Department, so Cheng Jushu probably cannot hand it over to the Inspection and Inspection Institute."
When Zhu Ge heard this, he immediately realized that something was wrong. The Division 1 of the Inspection Institute was responsible for supervising all affairs in the capital. First, Cheng Jushu secretly sneaked into the capital, and then assassinated Fan Xian inexplicably. Now, the deputy commander of the Military and Horse Division and his entire family were involved. He could already think of Emperor Qing.
How furious would he be?
"Commander Qin, there is Northern Qi's secret spy network in the capital hidden behind Cheng Jushu. If they are too late to remove it, Northern Qi will pose an even greater threat to Qing. For the sake of Qing, Commander Qin is asked to hand over the people to the Inspection Institute. Zhu
I promise you that I will make him reveal the real culprit behind the scenes."
Qin Hao secretly sneered, everything is for Qing Dynasty, how grand it sounds. You must know that Ye Qingmei's purpose of establishing the Inspection Institute was to limit the imperial power. Now the Inspection Institute has become Emperor Qing's sharp knife to cut off dissidents. Think about it
They all find it ironic.
However, Zhuge had already said all that, so Qin Hao couldn't force Cheng Jushu to stay.
"Cheng Jushu can be taken away by you, but if the Inspection Institute cannot pry out from him before noon tomorrow the list of spies hidden by the Northern Qi Dynasty in the Bingma Division, Qin will personally go to the Inspection Institute and bring Cheng Jushu back."
It is said that it is a list of Northern Qi spies, but in fact it is actually the personnel deployed by the eldest princess in the Military and Horse Department. Cheng Jushu is actually just a tool man. He most likely does not know this, but who made Zhuge join the eldest princess?
This was a deal Qin Hao made with the eldest princess. In the eyes of the eldest princess, which one is more important is the exposure of her assassination of Fan Xian, or the manpower deployed in the Soldiers and Horses Department.
"Zhu must give Commander Qin a satisfactory answer." Zhu Ge gritted his teeth and agreed. He knew that if he didn't agree, it would be impossible to take Cheng Jushu away from here today.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Come here, bring Cheng Jushu over."
Soon, Cheng Jushu, who was tied into a rice dumpling, was carried to the entrance of the military camp, and the soldiers of the Military and Horse Division threw him directly in front of everyone in the inspection institute.
"I've given it to you. Be careful on the way back. If something happens, don't rely on our troops."
Everyone in the Inspection Institute was so angry that they almost went berserk. They have become accustomed to being domineering in the capital these years. No yamen would be polite to them when they meet them.
"Everyone give me a stop, take them with you, and go back!"
Not long after Zhuge took Cheng Jushu away, someone came to the palace.
"Commander Qin, Your Majesty announces your admission to the palace."
"Excuse me, father-in-law, to lead the way. It's just a small thing. Let's have a cup of tea in your spare time."
"Commander Qin is too polite..."
After accepting Qin Hao's favor, the eunuch who delivered the order was obviously much more polite and answered Qin Hao's questions promptly.
"How is your Majesty feeling?"
"When he heard about the assassination on Willow Street, His Majesty was furious and ordered a thorough investigation."
In the main hall, Emperor Qing changed his usual lazy demeanor and stared at Qin Hao without anger or authority.
"I heard that during the assassination on Yangliu Street, the Military and Horse Division transferred all the patrol teams in West City. Do you know about this?"
Qin Hao bowed and said: "I did not know beforehand, and I am guilty of neglecting my duty."
Emperor Qing's expression softened. What the superiors hate most is not that their subordinates make mistakes, but that they shirk responsibility after making mistakes. How can a person who is unwilling to take responsibility for his own mistakes take the blame for his leader?
"Hmph, since you arrived in time to save Fan Xian, your guilt will be halved and you will be fined a year's salary. Are you convinced?"
"My lord, I am convinced."
Emperor Qing nodded: "I heard that a deputy commander of the Military and Horse Department was bribed by Northern Qi?"
"This man's name is He Jian. When I sent people to arrest him, all thirty-two members of his family had already 'hanged themselves to death.'"
"Hang yourself? Huh, do you believe this nonsense?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, this is the case decided by Jingzhao Mansion."
"It's this Jingzhao Mansion again." Emperor Qing's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. The last Jingzhao Mansion, Yin Mei, had just died, and this time there was another one. But this guy had just taken office not long ago. If
Dealing with it rashly will damage his prestige, so we can only let it go for the time being and wait for a while to settle the accounts later.
"What about Cheng Jushu?"
"It has been handed over to Zhuge, the head of the First Division of the Inspection Institute."
"Well, since it involves spies from the Northern Qi Dynasty, we might as well leave it to the Inspection and Inspection Institute." Emperor Qing suddenly changed the subject.
"I heard that Qin Aiqing and Yan Xiaoyi competed today?"
Qin Hao cupped his hands and said, "Luckily, I won a small victory."
"Qin Aiqing can defeat the ninth-level master at such a young age. It will be just around the corner to become a great master in the future."
When Emperor Qing said this, his smile was very kind, but Qin Hao knew that this old Yin coin was already wary of him.
In the world of Qing Yu Nian, the Grand Master is equivalent to the existence of nuclear weapons. There are currently four great Grand Masters in the world. There are two in Nanqing, one in Northern Qi, and one in Dongyi City. But in fact, the real Grand Master in Nanqing has made an appearance.
Only Ye Liuyun and the old Yin Emperor Qing have been hiding behind the scenes, pushing Hong Sixiang, who is at the peak of the ninth grade, as a shield. In this way, the three parties are actually evenly matched.
Due to the huge destructive power of the Grand Master, the three parties had a tacit understanding and did not let the Grand Master participate in the war, but only used it as a deterrent.
But when the country's survival is at stake, the Grand Master will inevitably intervene.
And now that Qin Hao has shown potential, he is very likely to become the fifth grand master. Before unifying the world, this is naturally a good thing. But when the unification is completed, the existence of the grand master will only threaten his imperial power.
In Emperor Qing's eyes, the Grand Master was a monster and no one should exist in this world except him.
"Master once said that in addition to talent, great masters value opportunities more. They can be encountered but not sought. Otherwise, there would not be only four great masters in the world."
Emperor Qing seemed to think of what happened to him back then. At that time, he was seriously injured and his meridians were severed. If Chen Pingping hadn't desperately rescued him, he would have turned into a handful of loess, and then endured the pain of the living dead.
Come here and become a great master.
"Well, perhaps it is true as Grandmaster Ye said, great masters are hard to come by. Otherwise, if Qin Aiqing can become a great master, and our Qing Kingdom has three great masters, why worry about the world not being able to unify?"
Seeing the regretful look on Emperor Qing's face, Qin Hao secretly scolded this old Yin Coin for pretending to be the same. If he really became a Grandmaster, I'm afraid this old Yin Coin wouldn't be able to sleep, right?
"Qin Aiqing has had a hard day too. Let's go down and rest first."
"I excuse myself."
........
On the other side, Fan Jian heard about Fan Xian's assassination and immediately rushed back from the Yamen.
"Don't worry, my father will definitely seek justice for you!" Fan Jian gritted his teeth.
Fan Xian said he was grateful to his father, but in his heart he felt that there was something complicated behind this incident. He had no enmity with Northern Qi, and he did not hold an important position in the court. Why did Northern Qi spend so much effort to assassinate him?
After sending Fan Jian away, Fan Xian said to Fan Ruoruo, who stayed to take care of him, "How is Teng Zijing?"
"He was seriously injured, but he is better than you. The doctor has prescribed medicine. He said he would go home to rest, so I asked my servants to prepare half a month's worth of medicine and send it to his home.
"Fan Ruoruo said.
Fan Xian nodded happily: "Well, he did a good job. It's best to give him some more money."
"Okay, I'll have someone send some money to his family later."
"I have nothing to do. You should go back and rest."
"Okay, brother, remember to call me if anything happens."
"I know, long-winded."
Not long after Fan Ruoruo left, a fat black figure came over from the wall.
"Master Xiao Fan, are you looking for me?" Wang Qinian asked with a pleasant smile.
Fan Xian struggled to shake his arm, motioning for him to come closer.
"You help me go to the forensic institute to keep an eye on him. Once there is news about Cheng Jushu, tell me immediately."
"Master Xiao Fan, I heard that you gave Teng Zijing fifty taels of silver a month, two acres of land and a cow? Then look at me..."
"Okay, I'll give you fifty taels of silver too."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Where are the land and cattle?"
"Here, don't worry, it's yours."
"Wang Qinian is willing to do his best for you until death."
Fan Xian:..........
In the harem, the eldest princess looked at the note in her hand and thought for a long time. Finally, she picked up a pen and wrote a list of names on a piece of paper.
"Send someone to Zhuge from the Inspection Institute. He will naturally know what to do."
"yes."
The day passed in the blink of an eye, the moon set and the sun rose, and the cockcrow announced the dawn.
At the court meeting, Fan Jian lashed out at the Inspection and Inspection Institute, and a group of officials who were deeply affected by it also attacked together. However, in the end, Emperor Qing used Chen Pingping's absence in the capital as an excuse and only verbally rebuked Zhuge, but did not
The sentence was reduced, which also allowed the Manchu officials to see Emperor Qing's determination to protect the Jianchao Yuan, and they could only reluctantly accept this outcome.
When it was time to go to court, Zhugesai gave Qin Hao a letter, the two exchanged glances, and then left the imperial city.
After returning to the Army and Horses Division, Qin Hao called all the twenty people in the letter to the camp. These people were all mid-level officers of the Army and Horses Division. They could be said to be the backbone of the Army and Horses Division. I have to admit that this woman Li Yunrui
Although she is a little crazy, she is capable and has a very vicious vision. As long as she controls these middle-level officers, every move of the Bingma Division cannot escape her eyes and ears. If Qin Hao is transferred one day, she will also be able to ignore the new commander.
Take the army and horses into your own hands.
"You all should take a look at this list. Is there anything you want to say?"
Everyone looked ashamed and did not dare to look at Qin Hao.
"I know you all have your own difficulties, but the matter has come to this, the fate is over, let's part ways."
"Lord Commander, I, Lao Li, am sorry for you and my brothers."
"Woo~~~"
The tough men cried in tears, and Qin Hao could only sigh helplessly. Mercy does not control soldiers, justice does not control wealth. The Military and Horse Division is the only force he can control at present, and he will never allow others to pick peaches.
At the same time, Fan Xian received news that the inspection agency was actually going to let Cheng Jushu go.
After learning the news, Fan Xian immediately rushed to the inspection institute and had a big fight with Zhu Ge, the head of the department, and the two parties broke up unhappy.
