Chapter 25 Minister of Justice

Author: Feng Si Niang

Chapter 25 Minister of Justice

What he was thinking was that, judging from the current situation, whether their fault was big or small, they would at most be charged with "careless inspection". After all, incompetence is better than helping others commit evil!

The people in Feilu, Guizhou don’t know what to do now, but they must not tear open the door from their capital side!

Thinking of this, the doctor cocked his neck again, as if he wanted to kill or cut him into pieces.

"Bold! How dare you cling to my starling?"

Zhou Yan's calm demeanor seemed to be shattered. He kicked the doctor, and his handsome face seemed a little distorted.

"If you want evidence, your highness will give you the evidence!"

The doctor covered his shoulders. Hearing that Zhou Yan had addressed him as "Your Highness" for the first time since the opening of the hall, he felt something was wrong.

"You, a slave like you, are also here to collect the booklet of the Censor of Guizhou Province. Come and read what is written in this booklet!"

With a bang, the folded piece fell to the ground, like a heavy blow hitting the doctor's heart.

He stretched out his hand tremblingly, but could not pick it up. He was afraid that there were some man-eating white fangs hidden under the same cover.

Zhou Yan sneered, now that he was afraid? But he did not continue to embarrass him. Instead, he asked the "extremely loved" Lao Shangshu to read.

"I, Li Xuan, the censor of Guizhou Province, said: In recent years, boy kidnapping cases have occurred frequently in Guizhou. They began in August of the 45th year of Longqing's reign, and the most recent case occurred in April of the 46th year of Longqing's reign.

The cases have snowballed and become bigger and bigger, and people are panicking;

There are no obvious areas where such cases occur frequently in Guizhou, but in recent days, the time span of many cases has become shorter and shorter, and there are more and more missing boys. The vicious methods and the huge number of missing people are really...

A major and egregious case rarely seen in the past thirty years!

I believe that although this case still does not escape the stereotype of "human trafficking", the abnormality in the incident is quite strange. I personally believe that if it is not someone with great power in the court, it is like the Wenxiang Sect, Yuandun Sect and other deceitful people.

The heresy in the human heart is coming back.

If it is the latter, it will be necessary to coordinate with multiple provinces and governments to handle the case and search for the dead and crippled unknown boy.

Please give me your approval, your Majesty, and I, Li Xuan, will pay your respects again."

Behind this excerpt, there is also a long letter attached, which contains a detailed description of such cases in the past two years, the common age characteristics of hundreds of boys, and two conjectures about how Li Xuan made it.

The doctor and the foreigner sat down weakly on the ground. It's over, it's over. How did His Highness find the secret that was suppressed two months ago?

This is tantamount to confirming that they did not report what they knew and were bending the law for personal gain!

"What, what else is there to say?

My Highness tells you that Ba Ye's people have gone with the angels sent by the imperial court to collect Fei Lu. All the people involved must be escorted back to Beijing, and no one should be left out.

I believe that no matter whether it is dismissal from office or beheading, you will not be lonely along the way..."

After Zhou Si heard the news about his brother's trial in his hall, he paced back and forth, not knowing how much he was sweating on such a hot day.

Until I walked away and saw the maid standing still like a stake next to me, I felt annoyed and shouted: "Get out of here!"

"What's the matter, myna? It's such a hot day and you're so angry. What are you still doing? Why don't you bring two ice basins here quickly?"

After saying that Cao Cao was about to arrive, Zhou Yan swaggered in, waving his fan, and skillfully poured himself tea.

"Oh, my good brother! How did you try the case? Are you afraid that I won't peel off my skin?

Besides, the Minister of Punishment is still one of ours. If you come here, he will definitely retire and return to his hometown. This time, you can let me, Bage, lose my wife and my army!"

"Hey, brother, why do you think it's just because of this? Brother, there are so many eyes of the government and the public staring at us, this case must be tried carefully, and Fei Lu will definitely die. As for the old minister, don't use the old to make a new one.

I'm not coming."

"It's easy for you to say that! If that old guy Fei Lu did something that is outrageous to both humans and gods, it would be good if he was not alive. Even if I kill him thousands of times, I won't even frown;

However, the six ministries and the cabinet were only one-third of an acre, and the father still had great power. Although the prince was cowardly, his legitimate son was not a vegetarian, and the old man had always favored his grandson;

The third brother has been eyeing us two brothers again. If the Ministry of Punishment changes hands this time, it will be a disaster if we lose the little property we have saved to Zhang Da! We two brothers just wait to be torn apart by them.

!”

When Zhou Yan heard this, he burst into laughter.

He stood up leisurely and pushed Zhou Si down to his seat comfortingly.

"Bago, to be fair, although the old minister said he was looking for you, did he secretly make any effort? He is indeed old, and more importantly, he is just a faggot. It is really not worth our trouble.

I've done some research and found out that the Minister of Punishment is quite capable. In this matter, I can give him a push to get him to stand in line. My younger brother will make an offer that he can't refuse. After all, threats are also opportunities.

As for the prince and the third brother, haha, just watch it, the eighth brother!"

Although Zhou Si was hesitant, he couldn't say anything else. After all, this younger brother had never let him down once.

However, "Tenth brother, which minister of the Ministry of Justice are you talking about?"

***

Du Heng felt that if the Eighth Prince Party wanted to retain the power of the Ministry of Punishment, 90% of the candidates would be the Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Punishment and Yan Taoxue.

One is that Yan Taoxue, as Zuo Shilang, is in charge of internal affairs, mostly prisons in the capital, while the prisons in Guizhou are all in charge of foreign affairs, by Right Shilang, so Yan Taoxue is less involved;

Secondly, Yan Taoxue is much younger and more capable than his colleagues, the Right Minister of Justice. The Right Minister of the Ministry of Justice can blame others better than the cook of Tianxiang Tower, and he is a well-deserved slicker.

Du Heng frowned. He recalled the rumors about Yan Tao's studies in the capital. They were all good words, about extraordinary ability, talent, and sharp wit.

The most terrible thing is that he also likes to have a lifelong relationship. Although Mrs. Yan is not a shrew, she can be regarded as a fierce character. She is really one of the objects of envy among the women in the capital.

It's funny to say that the person that women in the capital envied the most before was Lin Zhijun.

After thinking about it, this Yan Tao study is so perfect that it looks like a dummy.

Even a saint has minor flaws, ranging from his temper to his hobbies. This Yan Tao scholar could not find any fault with him, both superior and inferior, and he had no money-burning hobbies.

Du Heng couldn't help but wonder if all the forces wanted to win over him, could they find a breakthrough?

Du Heng thought for a while and decided to explore the Minister of Justice.
