Wei Zhongxian guessed that Lin Yue would take this opportunity to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys, but he did not expect that he would take further actions after killing Dang Tongjing.
Thinking about it, if no one was instigating him from behind, how could a person with the status of Party Tongjing have the courage to report the upstart of Dongchang, the celebrity around Jiu Qiansui.
He glanced at Xu Xianchun, whose expression changed: "Who do you want to report?"
Lin Yue said: "My subordinates want to report Mr. Zheng."
Zheng Zhangban
The whole hall was in an uproar. Everyone knew that Commander Zheng was seriously injured by a masked man with a short knife while protecting the case library. He is now a useless person. What does it mean to report him?
Xu Xianchun breathed a long sigh of relief and smiled flatteringly at Lin Yue. Dang Tongjing's report letter came through the Jinyiwei channel. Logically speaking, with the friendship between the two of them being brothers in the past, he should suppress the matter, but it didn't happen. Whether because of jealousy or fear that if what Dang Tongjing said was true, he would be implicated in something happening in the future, he did not do this. Instead, he took Lu Wenzhao to the Dongchang Yamen and handed the report letter to Wei Zhongxian.
How could he know that Lin San San had killed Dang Tongjing in three strikes and five divided by two, and he still wanted to take revenge. How could he not be worried? Fortunately, this guy didn't find fault with Jin Yiwei, but pointed the finger at Commander Zheng. .
Well, Master Zheng...
It makes no sense for Lin San to embarrass a useless person.
Xu Xianchun looked at Zhao Jingzhong with pity in his eyes. Look, Lin Jiancheng was probably going for the chief eunuch over there.
At the same time, Lin Yue took out a half-burned letter from his sleeve, held it in both hands and presented it to Wei Zhongxian.
"Everyone in the yamen knows that my subordinates have a good relationship with Chief Zheng. After he was seriously injured and paralyzed, my subordinates often brought people over to visit him, hoping to help him with his life and to comfort his friendship. Three days ago, my subordinate was in mourning. The factory owner appreciated it and was promoted to the Superintendent of Ceremonies and the Superintendent. He bought some gifts and went to Zheng Zhangban's house to tell the couple the good news. During the period, he remembered something and borrowed Zheng Zhangban's study room, but he didn't want to do it in the brazier. A half-burned letter was found. The attendant and Sister-in-law Jin'er can testify to this. After reading the contents of the letter, my subordinates didn't know what to do for a while. Until today, they were falsely accused. Thinking of the factory master's past teachings, he made the following decision Determined to submit this letter."
Seeing Guixiang take the damaged letter from his hand, Lin Yue clasped his fists and said deeply: "I shouldn't have waited so long to take out the letter and ask the factory boss to punish me."
At this time, Wei Zhongxian had finished reading the content of the letter, but due to the excessiveness, many words could not be recognized, but this was not important. What was important was that it contained terms such as General Li's Eastern Expedition to Korea, Father-in-law, and Ningjin Defense Line.
The Ningjin Defense Line refers to where it is naturally the front line against Houjin.
The man who conquered Goryeo was the famous Han thief Li Yongfang. As for the father-in-law in the letter...who is qualified to be called father-in-law by Commander Zheng?
He is also the eunuch Wang Tigan
Wei Zhongxian glanced at Zhao Jingzhong. The foster son over there, who always knew how to get into trouble, turned green.
"Are you sure this letter was written by Master Zheng?"
Lin Yue nodded: "My subordinates have carefully compared Zheng Zhangban's previous handwriting and are convinced that it was written by him. If the factory owner has any doubts, he can recheck it."
Wei Zhongxian glanced at Guixiang, and the eunuch took the letter and walked to Zhao Jingzhong to hand it out.
"Father..."
Zhao Jingzhong took it in his hand and glanced at it twice, sweat breaking out from his forehead.
"The child's loyalty to the Ming Dynasty is a lesson. It was his adoptive father and the emperor who gave the child the life he has today. How could the child have an affair with a Tatar? This is a frame-up."
"Did I say you had an affair with a Tatar?" Wei Zhongxian looked at him with his upper body arched: "Yes, you have today because of me and the emperor. What if I and the emperor are no longer here?"
Zhao Jingzhong knelt on the ground with a thud: "Father, you are blessed with a sea of blessings and live as long as a pine tree. How could you be gone?"
"I'm tired." Wei Zhongxian looked at Lin Yue and then at Zhao Jingzhong: "Aren't you very concerned about Nanjing? Why don't you just take some people to Nanjing and come back when you finish dealing with things there? .”
After speaking, Wei Zhongxian walked towards the back with Guixiang's support.
As for that letter... he didn't want to investigate whether it was true or not, and he didn't have the energy to pursue it. His current thoughts were on how to stabilize his position. As the saying goes, one emperor and one courtier, it is understandable that people like Zhao Jingzhong and Xu Xianchun would find a way out for themselves.
After all, Zhao Jingzhong was his adopted son. He had done a lot of practical things in the past. Killing the general in an emergency would bring immeasurable consequences. After weighing the pros and cons, he chose to send Zhao Jingzhong to Nanjing. This would avoid Lin San's investigation. The treasure ship case was constrained by one's own people. Secondly, it could ease the tension between the two people. When the treasure ship case came to an end, Zhao Jingzhong could be recalled to check and balance Lin San, so as to avoid the situation of a dominating family.
Wei Zhongxian left, but the solemn atmosphere in the hall continued.
Lu Wenzhao looked at Inspector Lin who was looking at him with a smile on his face. He wished he could take out his knife and chop off that guy's head, but he had to pretend to be submissive and submissive on the surface, because even Zhao Jingzhong had fallen into trouble.
The popular adopted son in front of Wei Zhongxian was in trouble, and he was almost kicked to death by a fucking move. It was widely rumored that Lin San relied on flattery to please his superiors. Now it seems that those evaluations are completely wrong. This guy is insidiously tight. .
"I wonder if Mr. Lin has time tonight. Xu wants to invite Mr. Lin to have a casual dinner and talk about work." Xu Xianchun nodded and bowed like a dog.
"No time." Lin Yue refused and took Lu Jianxing outside. Only three to five steps away, he suddenly stopped, looked back at Lu Wenzhao and said, "You guys brought me here, please be clear about what to do. "
He was referring to the matter of disposing of the corpse of Dang Tongjing.
Xu Xianchun said: "I know, I know, leave this matter to me."
Lin Yue continued to walk forward, and when he passed Zhao Jingzhong, a mocking smile appeared on his lips, as if he was saying that you are not qualified for playing dirty tricks.
In Xiuchundao I, this guy surrendered to the Tatars shortly after escaping from the Ming Dynasty. He was also sent by Li Yongfang to contact the grassland tribes. Is it possible that he had no contact with the Qing army before this?
If you bother to investigate, you can definitely find something, so this is not a false accusation.
On the other hand, I kept running to the house of Commander Zheng. Everyone in the Dongji Bureau knew that a helpless eunuch would certainly not go out to pick up girls. If he was willing to spend money to work hard, he must have a good relationship with Commander Zheng. In addition, Fan Yi and Jin'er testified, and the handwriting was correct. Combined with Wei Zhongxian's judgment of the current situation and his understanding of the psychology of people like Zhao Jingzhong, his first reaction was definitely "The letter is true, not false."
Once Wei Zhongxian has this understanding, then Zhao Jingzhong will still have good fruits to eat.
He had prepared this letter a long time ago, and was waiting for the right moment to take it out to disgust Zhao Jingzhong. Now that he was "unjustly accused" by his fellow party members, Zhao Jingzhong had added insult to injury first, and since he struck later, he would not arouse Wei Zhongxian's resentment.
Therefore, Zhao Jingzhong is a bit young when it comes to playing dirty tricks.
"You're worse than I thought."
Lin Yue walked outside, and Wei Ting also walked outside. When they met in front of the door, she smiled and said, "But don't worry, I won't fight for power with you. As long as you don't betray your adoptive father, I will help you if you need help." You can come to me wherever you want."
"Thanks."
Lin Yue watched her enter the Yuedong Gate on the west side, and continued walking forward with Lu Jianxing. When he arrived at the yamen gate, he saw a vendor selling jelly across the street, so he walked over and bought half a catty.
This snack is made of peas, cut into pieces, and mixed with sesame paste, chili oil, vinegar, and mashed garlic. It is soft and fragrant, and can be said to be a good way to relieve the heat in summer.
"Lu Jianxing, would you like to buy some to send to your mother?" Lin Yue didn't wait for his reply, and asked the hawker to give Mr. Lu a pound as well, and paid the money.
"Thank you so much, Commander Lin."
When Lu Jianxing thanked him, Lin Yue noticed a man standing at the door of the yamen, serving Xu Xianchun to mount his horse. He was wearing a hundred-household robe. He was fat and had a mustache. Wasn't it the Xiuchundao? Zhang Ying, a member of the Baihu family of the three brothers Shen Lian.
"Lu Jianxing, look at that person."
"Master Lin, you are talking about Zhang Ying and Zhang Baihu."
"Don't you think Qianhu said there is no shortage of Baihu? Let's find a way to kill him. Then there will be a vacancy."
Lu Jianxing shuddered. When this guy in his early twenties talked about killing, his tone and expression were more relaxed and natural than those of them.
"Boss Lin is joking. Since Wei is in good condition, Lu will just wait."
Lin Yue smiled and said nothing.
At this time, Lu Wenzhao walked out of the yamen, apparently dealing with the matter of collecting corpses.
Lu Jianxing couldn't hold back for a moment and asked: "Boss Lin, why didn't you attack Lu Wenzhao in front of the factory boss just now? It was obviously him..."
Lin Yue asked him to monitor Lu Wenzhao's movements. He was doing this very carefully, so he knew better than anyone else that Dang Tongjing wrote an anonymous letter to Jin Yiwei to falsely accuse him. Lu Wenzhao was behind it, even though he didn't know the report letter at the time. There was nothing written on it, but he reported the matter to Lin Yue. There was a good opportunity to fight back just now, but Lin Yue chose to let Lu Wenzhao go, the mastermind, and pointed the finger at Zhao Jingzhong.
He couldn't understand it. He couldn't understand it at all.
Lin Yue put the jelly that the vendor weighed into his hand, looked at the yamen door and said, "Because I have a better idea."
Lu Jianxing turned to look at him for a while.
good
What he calls "good" should be equivalent to "shady"
