Beijing.
In the imperial study room of the imperial palace.
Zhao Tai, the commander of the Zhenfu Division, truthfully reported Lin Yi's situation to His Majesty Lin Yunhong.
Lin Yunhong said expressionlessly: "In other words, someone in the capital wants to kill my son?"
"yes!"
Zhao Tai swallowed. The calmer His Majesty's expression was, the angrier he felt.
There was an invisible pressure in the royal study that made him breathless.
"check!"
Lin Yunhong said indifferently: "I will investigate hard. Anyone involved in this case, no matter who he is, I will see his head fall to the ground!"
"In addition, the Town and Prosecution Department has set up a special task force. Eighteen years from now, all cases filed in the Ministry of Justice will be re-examined. Undercover and open investigations will be carried out. Any unjust, false or wrong case will be traced immediately. Any unjust case will be investigated immediately. Officials who make false and wrong convictions, regardless of whether they are promoted or employed, will be imprisoned and dealt with according to law!"
“Compensate the wronged victims!”
"After this matter is done, you can just sit back and calmly take charge of the position of commanding general of the Zhenfu Division... you should look for it!"
Zhao Tai was shocked and said seriously: "Yes!"
I'm afraid there's going to be an earthquake in the officialdom of the capital, especially the Ministry of Justice... I'm afraid many heads will fall to the ground.
Just some of the evidence they had in their possession was enough to kill many officials from the Yamen and the Ministry of Justice.
Zhao Tai bowed and retreated.
Lin Yunhong was a little tired. He thought that at the emperor's feet, the court officials would be more restrained.
But he still believed in these officials too much and thought too well of them.
"I ask myself that I have never failed you, but you have betrayed my trust in you..."
"How can I keep you?"
A chill flashed across Lin Yunhong's eyes. After picking up a poem on the dragon desk, his expression softened and he chuckled: "Su Huaizhi is just an ordinary scholar, but he has cultivated your poetic talent so well. I should What should I reward him with?"
"He has never married for you, so I will promise him a beloved man? Let him take care of the mansion and the farm and the maidservants?"
Lin Yunhong then summoned officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs and drafted an imperial edict, asking Mei Zheren, the chief of the Supervisor of Ceremonies, to send it to the Zhenfu Division and Pingzhou Academy in Nanxiang Prefecture...
He looked at the two blue jade pendants on the dragon table that were put together to form the word "Lin". He held it in his hand and stroked it gently.
…
Zhenfusi Yamen.
"ah!"
"Unjustly accused!"
"I don't know, I don't know anything, wuwu... spare me!"
Lin Yi followed Long Wei and stripped all the flowers of hundreds of households before entering the Zhenfu Imperial Prison, when he heard countless miserable howls.
'It's no different from the Jinyiwei prison in the previous life. Those who don't know think they are in hell...'
Lin Yi entered the Zhenfu Division for the first time and looked at the surrounding environment, feeling a little creepy.
The overall atmosphere of Zhenfu Division is gloomy.
In broad daylight, the air is filled with gloomy air and a hint of coolness.
"Lord Hua, just now Dean Fu of the Zhenguoshengyuan Supervisory Academy sent three scholars who had their literary hearts destroyed. They were the scholars who the teahouse targeted Bachelor Lin..."
A Long Wei, who was in charge of Lin Yi's case, walked over quickly and reported the situation.
"It's so fast. Fu Yuheng treats me sincerely..." Lin Yi was moved.
"very good!"
Hua Baguang's eyes lit up and he looked at Lin Yidao: "Scholar Lin, you are right, Dean Fu is different from other people in the Holy Academy!"
"Maybe Dean Fu, Qin Shan from Qingshan Academy, can also kidnap him!"
Qingshan Academy and Zhenguoshengyuan are entities that Longwei, the Zhenfusi, cannot mess with.
Scholars who want to investigate these two major forces have a difficult time.
Even if the Commander-in-Chief makes it a point to save Mr. Yan's face, it won't work. We have to get an imperial edict from His Majesty.
"We'll know when the time comes. Let's interrogate those three people first and find out if the person who instigated them is Zhong Wenhe!"
Lin Yi knew this very well. To convict Zhong Wenhe, Gou Zhongxing was not enough.
An effective chain of evidence cannot be formed. All clues must be found to form a complete chain of evidence.
Only then can Zhong Wenhe be convicted.
"Walk!"
Hua Baguang took Lin Yi into Zhenfusi Prison.
Lin Yi looked at the prison. The environment here was deliberately created to be dirty and messy, and the voices of interrogating prisoners were also extremely loud.
The screams continued one after another.
But the more this kind of environment makes people feel fear from the bottom of their hearts, few people who have ghosts in their hearts can bear it.
"You are so brave, I am a scholar at Zhenguo Holy Court, and I am going to the Holy Court to sue you!"
"Why are we being imprisoned?"
"If someone breaks the rules of the Poetry Society, can't we target him?"
The three scholars, who were tied to torture instruments, shouted in the prison.
It was miserable enough that their Wenxin had been destroyed, and they did not want to spend the rest of their lives in prison.
at this time.
Lin Yi and Hua Baguang entered the torture chamber under the leadership of Long Wei.
"I heard that you are going to sue me?"
Hua stripped naked and entered the torture chamber, then stared at the three scholars of the Holy Court with a serious look.
"..."
The three of them fell silent immediately.
When they saw Lin Yi who then entered the torture chamber, their eyes suddenly widened.
"you……"
"Why are you here?"
"You are not the punishment department... ugh!"
The expressions of the three people changed drastically. In their opinion, after Lin Yi was captured by the government officials, people from the Criminal Department would deal with it.
Why did he appear in Zhenfusi's prison safe and sound?
'How did you find Zhong Wenhe, a person even more unreliable than Gou Zhongxing? '
Lin Yi saw the performance of these three people and knew that the next interrogation would go very smoothly.
"Scholar Lin, sit down!"
Hua Baguang motioned for Lin Yi to sit down, and then stood behind the chair in the execution room with a stern face.
"good!"
Lin Yi sat down, looked at the three scholars with a half-smile, and said: "Wenxin has been destroyed, so don't call yourself a scholar, and don't talk about the Holy Academy!"
"Should I ask, or should you explain?"
"Did you see the words on the gate of Zhenfu Si's prison? Leniency for those who confess, severity for those who resist..."
After Lin Yi finished speaking, he stopped talking and took a sip of the tea brought by Long Wei.
'It would be a good feeling to get a good official position in the Dragon Guard... Studying and practicing can go hand in hand with fulfilling your ambitions! '
Lin Yi thought this in his heart, and he knew that this must be Master Zhao's order.
It seems that Zhenfusi also hopes that he will join.
But this will only happen after he has achieved fame.
"Explain what?"
"You just can't afford to lose. Didn't you spend a lot of money to redeem yourself this time? It's also... Poetry is so good, the big shots in the capital will definitely try their best to protect you."
"Zhang Jiu'er is our favorite, why did you take her away? Are you here to take advantage of your connections and avenge your personal revenge?"
The three scholars sneered, and their lines were spoken clearly and without any flaws.
Lin Yi picked up the teacup, blew it lightly, looked at the three of them through the rising heat, and said, "That's a good excuse. It seems like you chose not to explain?"
"Ah!"
"Scare us?"
"Without further ado!"
The three of them have very hard bones and seem to have a bit of a literary character.
Lin Yi looked at Hua Baguang, who winked at Long Wei in the execution room: "Here's some snacks!"
Wow!
The three dragon guards took out long whips made of thorns and waved at them vigorously.
Snapped!
"Ah! I'll move, I'll move..."
Snapped!
"I said, I said!"
Snapped!
"Don't fight, don't fight, I'll do it all, I'll do it all..."
The three of them didn't expect Lin Yilai to be serious. When the whip went down, they felt that their bodies were torn in half, and their souls were trembling with pain.
They can't stand it!
Lin Yi knew that these three people were tough-mouthed, so he drank the tea in one gulp and said, "I listen!"
"Wu Yiren asked us to do it!"
"It's Wu Yi!"
"It's him!"
The three people decisively confessed the person behind them, and the blood stains on their upper bodies were shocking.
Lin Yi frowned, his eyes flickering... Why not Zhong Wenhe?
This seems a little different from his reasoning clues?
"Who is Wu Yi? Is he from the Ministry of Industry of the Imperial Court?" Lin Yi said in a deep voice.
