After Xiaoqi took the file, he read it out one by one according to the records on it. Peng Jinghai's face became more and more ugly as he listened to the recitation! Because these files clearly record the facts of the case, it is said that there was indeed insufficient evidence when Jinyiwei took the person, or it could be said that some people's refusal to speak affected the verification of the evidence.
So when these people were escorted to the capital, the entire case was still pending, but the evidence was quickly supplemented one after another! Judging from the time, it is obvious that the case made breakthrough progress after these prisoners were escorted on the road. It was almost as if they had made an appointment, and evidence kept popping up!
Hearing this, all the officials present understood what was going on! This is not a case of arresting people first because there is no evidence or insufficient evidence at the time, but it is simply a trap set by Liu Haojia!
After being arrested, these criminals feel that they have insufficient evidence and may not be able to get into trouble. Naturally, they will desperately contact the backstage in order to get out! But what they don't know is that the real evidence has actually been held by Jin Yiwei for a long time, but they are just holding it back and not reporting it!
After confirming that they had contacted the person behind it, they casually made up for the time and handed over the evidence in the name of just discovering it, completely completing the case! And their backstage was all exposed at this time. No matter what they did at this time, it was wrong, especially when they destroyed the evidence, they were giving Jin Yiwei directions! .
After Xiaoqi finished reading all the files, the Jin Yiwei began to confront the prisoners! The prefect saw that the evidence of his corruption had been obtained, and now he was in the main hall. He did not dare to lie in front of the emperor, so he quickly confessed to his crime, and the whole case was finally concluded!
Seeing this result, Peng Jinghai's face turned pale and pale. After a while, he bowed and said, "Master Li, this matter belongs to the subordinate Meng Lang. Please forgive me!"
After saying that, he waved his sleeves and wanted to go back to the class, but Liu Haojia stopped him and said, "Master Peng, wait a minute, who told you to go back now?"
Peng Jinghai heard this and said angrily: "Master Li, even if there is a problem in the investigation of the case, it is just a small mistake! I don't know why you are so unwilling to forgive me?"
At this time, Liu Haojia slowly took out another letter from Xiaoqi's arms, shook it twice and said: "I have been thinking about the news that this prisoner bribed the guards to pass to the outside after arriving in the capital. Who would dare to take the risk to intervene? ? What surprised me was that after receiving the letter, two people quietly appeared in the prison and had a secret conversation with the prisoner respectively! One of them was Mr. Peng, and the other one he He hasn’t come forward until now, so I don’t want to mention him! So I would like to ask here, why is Mr. Peng particularly interested in this prisoner? "
All the officials looked at Peng Jinghai and saw that his lips were trembling and his face was extremely pale. It seemed that there was a very profound story in this!
At this time, Liu Haojia raised the letter in his hand again and said: "But Mr. Peng probably doesn't know that these prisoners have been under my supervision for a long time, and the messages and letters they sent have been checked! For example, this prison officer sent The second letter to Mr. Peng is actually a copy of the original that someone copied and sent over. The real handwritten letter is with me! So I have learned a little secret. This secret is for you, Mr. Peng, to tell you. Or should you wait for me to tell you?"
Baiguan looked at Peng Jinghai again, but saw that he just stood there with his head lowered and said nothing. It seemed that he didn't intend to speak! Upon seeing this, Liu Haojia threw the envelope back into Xiaoqi's arms and said, "It seems that Mr. Peng is not going to say anything anymore, so I will speak for Mr. Peng! It must have been in the second year of Wanli that Mr. Peng's father-in-law's family was involved in something. In the land dispute case, after the case was concluded, Mr. Peng’s father-in-law’s family had an additional 120 acres of land! And the person in charge of the case at that time was the prison officer kneeling there!”
When all the officials heard this, they all understood the mystery and sighed! Because they could tell from Peng Jinghai's face and behavior that this matter was definitely true! His father-in-law had devoured 120 acres of a certain family's land through him, and this would have been the case in the hands of this criminal!
The prisoner used this to threaten him and asked him for help, but in the end, he acted improperly and the situation fell into the hands of Jin Yiwei! Now it seems that Peng Jinghai failed to save people, and instead wants to get herself involved! explain
Maybe his father-in-law’s family will be in trouble too!
At this time, Liu Haojia said loudly to the officials: "Such a person who is corrupt and perverts the law openly accuses the Jin Yiwei of being corrupt and perverting the law. What's the point of this?"
After speaking, he turned around and bowed to Emperor Wanli and said, "Your Majesty, how should we deal with this person?"
Emperor Wanli pondered for a moment and then said: "Just take it! But there is no need to involve too much!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Haojia bowed and saluted, then turned around and waved, and two guards rushed up, knocked off Peng Jinghai's official hat and dragged him out! Seeing this scene, the officials let out another sad sigh!
After Peng Jinghai was dragged away, Liu Haojia raised his hand and pointed at a short-bearded official and said, "Master Hu, please step forward and speak!"
The official surnamed Hu, who had been impassioned just now, visibly trembled when he heard these words and hesitated to take a step. Liu Haojia turned around and rummaged in Xiaoqi's arms, and said at the same time: "Master Hu, it doesn't matter even if you don't come out! Anyway, you should know that I am talking about you! I also want to see..."
As soon as he said this, he heard someone shouting: "Mr. Liu, you don't have to search for it yet!"
Liu Haojia looked back in surprise, and it turned out that it was Mr. Hu who was named by him who made such a loud noise! This Mr. Hu’s surname is Hu Mingbin, and he is an official from the Ministry of Household Affairs!
Liu Haojia turned around in surprise and said, "It seems that Mr. Hu has something important to say! Then please say it!"
Hu Bin squeezed the butan in his hand and said angrily: "Originally, I didn't intend to tell this matter at this time. It's all because of you, Mr. Liu, who forced me to do so!"
Liu Haojia made a gesture of invitation with a nonchalant expression, asking him to continue speaking. The other officials were also interested and wanted to hear what Hu Bin could say.
Just listen to Hu Bin loudly say: "Master Liu, this time Jinyiwei's files have been distributed to various yamen, including our household department. We have also received a lot! But the lower official discovered a problem. This time a total of three hundred dirty silver was seized. More than 400,000 taels, which also included a lot of money returned by officials! But when this money was sent to the Ministry of Revenue, there was only an integer of 2.6 million taels left! There were still more than 800,000 taels unknown. whereabouts,"
