Although Beiyang Bank is not the largest bank in the capital, it is the only one that dares to make loan sharks when the officials are strictly investigating it. The reason why he did this is because it is backed by the imperial court. several big trees.
When Meng Hetong and Xie Suyu walked into the bank, the bank was already in a mess. They must have received the news and were packing their things.
Xie Suyu looked at the messy bank in front of him and understood that it was probably because Jing'antang was under investigation. They were worried that they would be implicated and wanted to destroy the account books overnight. Fortunately, Meng Hetong was fast enough and did not let them succeed.
The people brought by Xie Suyu arrested all the people in charge of the bank and the servants who escaped. Meng Hetong looked at the people kneeling on the ground, looked around, and then saw a box placed under the table.
The person who hid the box must have been very anxious. He hurriedly stuffed the things under the table, but failed to put down the entire tablecloth in time, exposing a little of the corner of the box.
Meng Hetong took out the box. The box was locked and he had no way to open it directly.
Meng Hetong walked up to the shopkeeper and placed the box in front of him: "Open it!"
"This is not my box. I don't have the key." The shopkeeper was very calm, as if he had never seen this box before.
Xie Suyu looked at the box in front of him, and then at the shopkeeper who was pretending to be calm. He couldn't help but frown and said, "Either you open it yourself, or we split it open with a knife. We always have a way to open this thing!"
Meng Hetong was not impatient at all. He lightly kicked the box with his feet, and then said with a smile: "Since you said it's not yours, then it's not yours. I just hope you will lose your head by then. You can also say that this head is not yours!"
When Meng Hetong finished saying this, even Xie Suyu looked back at him, then turned around with his hands behind his back: "Well... I leave it to you, I have to go to the palace to report this matter to my father!"
Meng and Tong cupped their hands to send him off: "Congratulations to Your Highness, the Seventh Prince!"
As soon as Xie Suyu walked out of the bank, the door of the bank was closed, and Meng Hetong's cold voice came out: "Search!"
When Xie Suyu placed the account books of Beiyang Bank and his shopkeeper's confession in front of the emperor, there was no emotion on his face. He just looked at the cases and evidence in front of him very calmly.
Xie Suyu looked at the emperor for a long time, and then said softly: "Lin Shangshu allowed his son to do such vicious things. He has committed a heinous crime. Please ask my father to redress the grievances of the innocent people who were harmed!"
"How did you get them to confess so quickly?" the emperor suddenly said.
Xie Suyu's eyes flashed, and he knew that the emperor suspected that he had induced a confession.
In fact, at that moment, Xie Suyu was very sad, but it was only at that moment. After all, he had been used to it for so many years. He preferred the prince, or so many of their brothers and sisters knew very well that their father I miss my late late Queen even more.
For this reason, Xie Suyu once fought for his mother, but in the end he discovered that his mother didn't actually care. The queen took all this very lightly, so gradually, he became less concerned.
"All the interrogations were conducted by Prince Yongchang himself. If my father feels there is something wrong with the confession, you can ask Prince Yongchang!" When Xie Suyu said these words, he kept his head down and did not raise his head to look at the emperor.
The emperor looked at Xie Suyu in front of him. Of course he knew that his son was excellent, but it was precisely because of his excellence that he was even more worried that he would have a desire for power.
Of course, he didn't want to see his son be as bloody as he was with his brother a hundred years later.
After a long time, the emperor sighed softly: "I know!"
In the past, Xie Suyu would have left most of the time and would not have asked the emperor how he planned to deal with these matters, but this time, Xie Suyu did not let it go.
Xie Suyu stood there in silence for a long time, but was unwilling to leave.
The emperor who was there to approve the memorial finally discovered something was wrong with Xie Suyu. He looked at his son and frowned slightly: "Do you have anything else to do?"
Xie Suyu looked up at the emperor and said softly: "Father, do you want to meet the parents who have lost their children?"
The emperor took a deep breath and put down the pen in his hand: "What do you mean?"
"As the saying goes, the emperor's crimes are the same as those of the common people. My father has always been a good monarch who serves the country and the people, and I have always believed that my father will give them justice." Xie Suyu looked at the emperor without any dodge in his eyes.
"You are just questioning me!" The emperor was a little angry.
Xie Suyu lowered his head: "I don't dare. I just feel that those women who were killed are really pitiful! Some have broken pelvic bones, some have broken valleys, some have been whipped to death, some have died of excessive blood loss, and even Some of them were buried alive because their appearance was disfigured. I wonder how desperate they must have been when they were alive!"
The emperor looked at Xie Suyu and remained silent.
One after another, each bloody case has made people and gods angry.
When the emperor remembered that Xie Suxian came to him several times and wanted to take over this case, he felt a little clear in his heart. If there was no evil in his heart, how could he be so eager to take over this hot potato? ?
The emperor had mixed feelings.
At this time, Xie Suyu stopped pressing him. He just looked at the emperor deeply and then resigned.
The emperor looked at Xie Suyu's lonely back and lowered his eyes. The evidence on the table was clear. The Lin family could no longer be saved!
That day, the emperor stayed in the royal study all night and went to court the next day, but he kept silent about the matter.
When going to court, Xie Suyu's eyes were full of disappointment. When Xu Yanquan passed by, he walked beside Xie Suyu: "What? You have already submitted the evidence?"
Xie Suyu didn't speak, just walked silently with his head lowered.
"Wait a little longer, some things need to ferment!" Xu Yanquan patted Xie Suyu on the shoulder, "Wait a minute, there will be different results!"
In fact, what Xu Yanquan meant by waiting was Marquis Ningyuan, who was ordered by the emperor to enter the imperial study after going down to court.
The emperor has doted on the prince for many years, but this time he has to cut off the prince's right and left arms with his own hands. It is inevitable that he cannot bear it and hesitates!
The discussion with Marquis Ningyuan just wanted a step, and Marquis Ningyuan was this step.
"How do you know?" Xie Suyu was a little surprised.
"My sister said it!" Xu Yanquan raised his eyebrows, his eyes full of pride!
