Liu Zhennian fully accepted Yan Wen's opinion, and called Niu Yuan to discuss the matter, while supervising the Dali Temple to work with the Imperial Army to capture the people.
Within a moment, Niu Yuan hurried over. He first saluted the two of them, and then asked anxiously: "Have all the people involved been caught?"
Liu Zhennian waved his hand: "Who is involved? The only person named by the emperor is Jie Wenwu. He has been temporarily escorted to the lobby of Dali Temple."
"Even so, the other parties are also very hateful. If we don't take advantage of this moment to catch them all, it will only increase the trouble in the future!"
After hearing this, Liu Zhennian smiled and said, "Yan Shenzhen also advised me on this point."
"But it's not quite the same." Yan Wen took the words and stood up slowly, "The memorial was introduced to the Civil and Military Office, and the ministers only echoed it. The charges are still unclear. If they are all arrested, it will easily cause a commotion; besides, who should be We need to slowly calculate whether we should treat them lightly and who should be treated seriously. If we ask all of them for serious crimes, and then try to treat them differently and show mercy outside the law, it will be suspected of violating the law."
Liu Zhennian was greatly impressed: "Yan Shenzhen's words are absolutely true! Even if we don't consider these factors, for the sake of the stability of the government, we must be kind and powerful at the same time. Go and ask Dali Temple to send troops to look after the households and officials. Wait until Ye Yongjia comes tomorrow Okay, after taking over the affairs of the Ministry of War, we will investigate Jie Wenwu again. It's late today, so both of you are resting."
"Yes. I will notify Yan Liang immediately." Yan Wen bowed to Liu Zhennian briefly, then walked out of the room, leaving only Niu Yuan behind, and walked away.
"Feng Xiang...what else can you say?" Zhen Nian couldn't help but ask when he saw that he was still standing there.
Niu Yuan looked uncomfortable and hurriedly lowered his head: "It's nothing. I'm just grateful to Yan for his help in politics, which relieved a lot of my burden."
Liu Zhennian heard the meaning, but did not clarify it. He just smiled and said: "After all, this is related to our future, and we need to discuss it more clearly. But now that the traitors have been eliminated, there is no one in the court." Strange words? Have a good rest during this period. When your new policy is implemented again, the burden will not be small! "
At three o'clock in the morning, Ye Yongjia was woken up by a rapid knock on the door. After he opened the door in a daze, he immediately received a shocking news: Jie Wenwu Shangshu was dismissed from his post and was now locked up in Dali Temple to await his fate. He would temporarily take over the affairs of the Ministry of War.
Ye Yongjia was stunned for a moment, then he stopped thinking about it, quickly picked up his official uniform, and rushed to the Yamen of the Ministry of War without stopping.
When he entered the palace, he received the order first. In compliance with the emperor's order, he appointed Cai Xianqing as Minister of War and re-adjusted the personnel in the department, which stabilized people's hearts. Seeing that everything was taken care of, he was ready to leave and go to Zhongshu Province to find out.
Just as he was walking out of the nave, he suddenly heard bursts of banging on the door. He hurriedly walked down the stone steps, leaned against the door and asked loudly: "Who is outside? Please say hello. Ye is not unreasonable!”
"Master Ye, the court wants to examine Jie Wenwu's crimes, but there is no evidence. Please let me and my brothers in. I will restrain the gang under my command, don't worry!" The voice on the other end was obviously Shi Xiushen's.
Even though they were old acquaintances, Ye Yongjia was still cautious and ordered Cai Xianqing and others to lock the irrelevant houses before inviting the Chief Inspector to enter the inner courtyard.
As soon as Shi Xiushen entered the inner courtyard, he ordered all the soldiers to seal off all the roads near and far. He saw that the imperial troops were all lined up in order, and no one dared to bump into each other. Ye Yongjia breathed a sigh of relief.
"Master Ye, I have never been to your place before. Could you please give me some guidance so that the brothers can search the place where the documents are kept?" Shi Xiushen said while looking around.
"Lord Si Jin, this is the place where Jie Gong works, not mine."
"Haha, I know he treats you well, but this position will be yours sooner or later, so there is no need to stick to it." Shi Xiushen pressed his sword and said with a smile.
"brothers--"
"Eunuch Lu is here!"
Just as Shi Xiu Shen was waving his arms to give orders, he suddenly heard a sharp and long voice outside the door. He turned around and saw that it was two young eunuchs carrying a small sedan, and a thin figure emerged from the sedan.
"Eunuch Lu, actually I am enough here." Shi Xiushen had a straight face and bowed slightly without lowering his head.
Ye Yongjia saw that he didn't respect him as much as he did Shen Jing. He didn't expect him to be a high official, so he didn't take him seriously. Unexpectedly, when the man approached, he felt a murderous aura.
Ye Yongjia carefully looked at the so-called eunuch Lu and saw that his face was almost skinny and bones, his eyes were slightly protruding, he only had a few white eyebrows, and his thin lips did not look like a kind person.
"This is Ye Shilang, who is temporarily serving as the Minister of War." Seeing that the two of them did not know each other, Shi Xiu Shen took the initiative to introduce him, "Sir Ye, this is the respected Eunuch Lu in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, both named Xinzhong."
"Nice to meet you, nice to meet you." Ye Yongjia bowed deeply to the other party first, but Xinzhong didn't return the greeting. He swept the whisk in his hand and said with a faint smile: "Servant Ye, it was Mr. Shen who sent me to assist Mr. Shi this time. . After all, he is a military officer and is not very literate. I just looked it up for him. Jie Wenwu is a key criminal designated by the emperor. If you cooperate well with our family, you can be promoted to a higher position in the future. "
It was difficult for Ye Yongjia to hear him speak with a strong accent, but fortunately he could understand him a little, so he had to reply: "That's natural. You two, please."
Ye Yongjia pushed open the door of the bookstore, and the dust inside flew up in the sunlight, which made Lu Xinzhong cough and his face turn red.
Shi Xiushen led a team of soldiers in, first searching the documents on the bookcase, and then dragging the box in the corner, he was busy.
"Don't move here! Watch carefully. If you destroy something belonging to the Ministry of War, I'll ask you to pay for it!" Shi Xiushen supervised from the side and followed them, rummaging through the vast sea of words.
After searching for a while, there was still nothing that could be called evidence, which made Shi Xiu Shen's eyes sore. He shook his head, sighed, and walked out of the pile of paper after repeatedly saying, "No more looking, no more!" He sat down between Ye Yongjia and Eunuch Lu.
"Thank you for your hard work, Master Shi," Eunuch Lu showed his yellow teeth and grinned, "How about I keep looking for you?"
"If you're not too tired, father-in-law, you can go and look through it."
Lu Xinzhong immediately put down his fly whisk and slowly walked into the crowd.
"What happened this time?" Ye Yongjia took the opportunity to ask.
"Jie Wenwu was ignorant of the situation and went to the palace gate to force the emperor to make a decision. I reported the news to the emperor, and the emperor became angry and dismissed him."
"Why didn't you stop it then?" Ye Yongjia's tone suddenly became harsh.
"I……"
Shi Xiushen was still thinking about the answer. When he looked up, he saw Eunuch Lu holding a stack of documents and shouted to him: "Found it!"
