"Now that something has happened, we are here to arrest all the criminals and bring them to justice."
"Shilang Liu's mansion is now officially sealed."
"Anyone from the Liu Mansion who can report and expose Shilang Liu's illegal behavior will be given a lighter sentence."
"This must be a member of Mr. Liu's family. Do you have anything to say, or should you just come with us?"
I just asked, but it seems like I can’t go back.
The life that was getting better and better suddenly collapsed after this self-report.
Mrs. Liu felt as if the sky was falling, and her children and Liu Bucheng were the same, slumped on their chairs.
His family knows his own affairs, Liu Bucheng can run a gambling house, his salary is definitely not enough, he must have the first pot of gold, and the source of the first pot of gold is self-evident, the origin must be disgraceful, except for corruption. Others are possible.
Now that the incident has occurred, even the mansion has been sealed off, still following Lao Zhu's orders, and it is basically hopeless.
The family's eyes were dull, and they were tied up one by one by the soldiers brought by Zheng Shiyuan. It took Mrs. Liu a while to come back to her senses and said loudly.
"My wife has the decree to be consecrated by His Majesty. Even if my husband is guilty, you cannot directly convict me before the case comes to light. You will also tie up my wife and not release her immediately, otherwise I will report you to Your Majesty."
It was originally a normal request, but unfortunately the matter was basically unsolvable. From the expression on Liu Shilang's face in the main hall, it could be seen that he had accepted his fate.
It is impossible to be decent now, and Zheng Shiyuan is still leading the team. It is related to his own performance, and the evidence is conclusive.
Zheng Shiyuan, the mastermind, is ruthless.
"take away."
That's it, cold and heartless.
With all the people in the mansion under control, Zheng Shiyuan led his troops to rummage through the boxes and cabinets in the Liu Mansion, leaving no corner untouched.
Liu Qian's lawlessness cannot be changed anymore. What he is doing now is to find more evidence, look at the chain of interests upstream and downstream, and expand the area of attack. .q.
After all, nothing can be accomplished by one person.
There are definitely a lot of people involved.
Liu Qian's mansion was turned upside down, and more and more evidence appeared in front of Zheng Shiyuan.
After flipping through it, one of the account books caught Zheng Shiyuan's attention.
There are many officials involved here, and their official positions are also very high. The most conspicuous one is the Minister of War.
However, the information inside is not directly bribed, but more like a gift note.
It records the number of gifts given during a wedding event at the minister's home on a certain day in a certain year and month.
It was originally an ordinary gift list, but the amount was too large, totaling five hundred guan, so everyone who came had to pay attention to it.
The keen Zheng Shiyuan immediately discovered something unusual about this great gift, but it was just a gift note, and Zheng Shiyuan had no idea what to do.
With such a big contribution ahead of him, Zheng Shiyuan didn't want to give up. He immediately gathered everyone together and pointed at the gift list and asked.
"The amount of such a gift bill is too large. If any of you know the inside story, as long as you get it honestly, the punishment may be reduced in the future."
"From now on, in the next quarter of an hour, you can report and expose, no matter when it is late."
"I can also tell you clearly that Liu Qianliu's crime is clear and his crime is unpardonable. There is no need to take chances and think that something will happen or someone will save his life. You should think carefully. I am waiting for you here. "
Zheng Shiyuan's words were a bit scary, and everyone looked at each other in shock. Finally, they all lowered their heads under the warning look from Mrs. Liu.
But there are always a few who are timid and know the inside story and cannot withstand the pressure. They raise their heads under Mrs. Liu's cannibalistic eyes and say to Zheng Shiyuan.
"Sir, you know a little bit, but don't you know that adults can keep their words?"
Zheng Shiyuan nodded slightly.
"What you say will be written down on paper by me. When the time comes, I will see how much your words are worth and I will reduce your punishment as appropriate."
After Zheng Shiyuan finished speaking, a man walked out from the side, holding a pen and paper, as if taking notes.
Seeing this situation, the man weighed it in his mind and told everything he knew.
"Sir, I happened to pass by the master's bedroom one night and heard some reasons."
"That day, the head of the Liu family just came back from having a drink with Master Shangshu. Because he gave too many gifts, my wife complained a few times."
"The head of the Liu family told the reason. He said that someone reported him and was known to Lord Shangshu. He wanted to find out the details."
"The head of the Liu family got the news from somewhere, and it happened to be a happy event for Master Shangshu's family, so he gave a generous gift."
"I don't know much about the other little ones. I only know that the gifts were not returned, and the Liu Family Master didn't bother to come to the door."
The person who recorded it wrote very quickly and completely recorded this passage on the paper.
Zheng Shiyuan nodded with satisfaction and said to him.
"Very good. What you said is very useful. This will be recorded. Does anyone have anything to add?"
With the first person, there was the second person. Seeing Liu Qian's imminent destruction, everyone told what they knew.
He wanted to talk too much and his voice was extremely noisy. Zheng Shiyuan snorted, then pointed to someone and said.
"Take your time one by one, you speak first."
The person who was pointed out was extremely happy. The further forward this kind of thing is, the better. If it is said too much later, it will inevitably be repeated, and then there will be no effect.
"Sir, as far as I know, there is another gift list in the head of the family's study, which contains the money sent by the guests for the Liu family's great celebration."
"Some of them seem to have some contacts with the head of the family. The younger one remembers a few of them. The conversation with the head of the family in the study was overheard by the younger one."
"I said that I have some ordinary horses, but I am short of a batch of good horses. If I can find them and replace them, I can give them a price difference of about ten taels per horse."
"At that time, the head of the Liu family didn't say he agreed or disagreed. That's all I heard. But I know who they are. If it's useful, I can testify for you."
This is another very important clue. With a breakthrough, what follows is not too far away.
"Okay, come here, take him to find the account book, circle the people involved in it, and record what you said in the book."
After the people left, Zheng Shiyuan pointed at another person and listened to the reported information.
As time passed, Zheng Shiyuan discovered more and more clues from Liu Mansion's account book and gift list.
And these clues point to more and more people.
More and more officials are involved.
The same was true for the team led by Mao Xiang, but it went more smoothly.
Not to mention the gradually established intelligence system.
Mao Xiang just found the head of the Driving Department and controlled the personnel first.
When the news of Liu Qian's incident came out, the head of the Driving Department poured beans out of a bamboo tube and confessed everything he had committed.
There are detailed account books and related lists of complicit persons, which basically didn't take much effort on Mao Xiang's part to know.
