Chapter 1066 Jiajing's Choice
Huang Jin is not the only young eunuch who came from the palace. Among the many eunuchs from the palace, he is actually a very inconspicuous existence. But after so many years, he is the only one who is safe and in a high position.
eunuch.
Before he could clearly guess what the Holy One was thinking in his heart, even if he pretended to be dumbfounded and made himself look stupid, he would not easily express his personal wishes.
Once he caters to His Majesty's appetite, it's okay, but if he goes against His Majesty's wishes, then his good days may come to an end.
Just like Yan Song last year, the Emperor clearly wanted to rebuild the Longevity Palace. However, this person committed an old fool and tried to persuade the Emperor to return to the palace, thus ending up in the situation where he is gradually falling out of favor.
Facing the cautious Huang Jin, Jiajing found it hard to feel resentment in his heart, but he shook his head helplessly.
He suddenly noticed that Feng Bao next to him was about to speak. Because he liked this little eunuch, he asked casually: "Feng Bao, how do you think Liu Ji should be rewarded?"
Feng Bao deliberately stood in a more exposed position. Naturally, he wanted to participate in the topic. He was about to answer, but when he found Huang Jin glared at him sternly, he stopped his words and said: "I don't dare, little one."
Nonsense!"
Huang Jin was indeed very unhappy. He had always taught Feng Bao not to participate in any political discussions, let alone get involved in political struggles. However, this kid was so ignorant of propriety that he was simply seeking death.
Although His Majesty has tempered his temper over the years, he has not forgotten those seniors who were killed with sticks, and he also understands why the White House lady risked killing the Nine Tribes by strangling His Majesty to death.
Jiajing glanced at Huang Jin with enlightenment. Huang Jin did not dare to be distracted and immediately showed a simple and honest smile. Jiajing glared at him and said directly to Feng Bao: "You can just say it, I forgive you!
"
"Thank you, Master!" Feng Bao thanked him, and then said seriously: "I think that the truth about Chen Zhixian's death should be found out now, and then Liu Ji should be dealt with. It is not appropriate for Liu Ji to preside over the Shuntian government office now! If now
If we let him go back, I’m afraid we’ll never find out the truth!”
Huang Jin's brows frowned slightly. Although he couldn't tell whether the Holy Lord was happy or angry, he still hurriedly reprimanded him with dissatisfaction: "Feng Bao, what nonsense are you talking about! Didn't Jin Yiwei already find out that the murderer of Chen Zhixian was from the White Lotus Sect?
Human?"
"But... isn't there no evidence?" Feng Bao hesitated for a moment, but still fought for it. He was not questioning Jin Yiwei's investigation results, but for Lin Haoran, so he made this last effort.
Jiajing waved his hand to stop this small dispute, and seemed to have an idea in his mind. He would occasionally listen to the opinions of the people below, but he was always the one who really made up his mind.
Feng Bao looked at Jiajing walking towards the quiet room, but he had a bad premonition in his heart.
Naturally, he wanted to help Lin Haoran secretly, but the current Holy Emperor is such a kind person, and has always made clear rewards and punishments. I am afraid that Liu Jiguan will be reinstated.
If Liu Jizhen is reinstated, then Lin Haoran, the acting Shuntian government official, will naturally return to Shuntian government office, thereby losing control of the Shuntian government office again, and may even never turn around.
It's just that when things got to this point, he, a little eunuch, couldn't change the Holy Spirit's wishes, and he could only take one step at a time.
The capital has always been a place of right and wrong.
Ever since Suncheon Ilbo opened its doors to the capital market, the capital has definitely become more lively than before.
In the past, no matter what big event happened, even if Yan Song's wife passed away, it would take a while for the news to spread from the south to the north of the city, and it would take another time to spread from the inner city to the outer city. Many news would take a day or two to pass.
It would take several days to spread throughout the capital.
But after the "Sunchon Ilbo" appeared, even if there was sand in Xiaoxianglou's dishes, it only took one morning for the news to spread throughout the city.
But today, a huge piece of news emerged. Just last night, Prime Minister Shuntian was assassinated by an assassin in front of his home, and he almost died on the spot.
"Assassinating an imperial official is a capital crime!"
"Isn't that true? Who is so rampant?"
"I'm afraid this matter is not simple. It's better to get less involved!"
…
The news spread throughout the streets and alleys of the capital, and major restaurants were discussing the incident. Since the conflict between Lin Haoran and the Xu Mansion had already been made public, after the news spread, some people cast suspicious eyes on the Xu Mansion.
.
Lin Fucheng was in charge of the Shuntian government office, and he handled the identity fraud case of Xu Yuanwai for the time being. However, the murder case of He Jiu and the murder of Chen Zhixian were both more or less related to Xu Fu.
Just like this, Xu Mansion was pushed to the forefront again, and he was already the biggest suspect in the assassination of Lin Fucheng.
Although some people were afraid or even avoided it, many people went to the Shuntian Mansion Office one after another to watch the assassin who was tied up at the gate of the Shuntian Mansion Office.
In the newspaper, it was clearly marked: "Anyone who can provide effective information about the assassin will be rewarded with one tael of silver; anyone who can provide clues to the assassin's associates will be rewarded with five taels of silver; anyone who can provide clues to the person behind the assassin's instructions
Those who do, will be rewarded with fifty taels of silver!"
This has been the case since ancient times. There must be a brave man under such a heavy reward. Whether it is one tael, five taels, or the fifty taels, it is undoubtedly a big temptation for the people in the capital, and they naturally want to try their luck.
"I've seen him, he lives at Yuelai Inn!"
"He said his name is Wang Si and he is from Taiyuan Prefecture, Shanxi Province!"
"His companion? I think he appeared in Zuichun Tower!"
…
The people watching seemed to have sharp eyes, and they quickly provided various clues to the head catcher Zhang Hu. Anyone who provided useful information could receive a reward of one tael or half a tael from Zhang Hu, and these simple people
Bai Zao was already blushing with joy.
After all kinds of information were compiled, the whereabouts and identity of the assassin were quickly grasped by the Shuntian Prefecture. With this information in hand, Lin Haoran rushed to Xiyuan without delay, and directly requested an audience with the emperor as the agent of the Shuntian Prefecture.
.
The reason why Shuntianfu Yamen is noble and is known as the Small Punishment Department is that in addition to its official seal being a silver seal and being able to handle criminal cases across the country, it also has the power to directly seek an audience with the Holy Emperor.
Of course, nothing can be absolute.
