After the public trial of the Shuntian Mansion was over, what happened here soon spread throughout the streets and alleys of the capital, attracting widespread attention from the scholars and people of the capital.

Compared with Lin Haoran's severe punishment of the three evil young men and the seizure of the Zuichun Building, everyone is obviously more concerned about the fact that Yin of the Shuntian Mansion, who has only been in office for one day, was ordered by the emperor to introspect at home.

If it is said that Liu Yi is a great traitor. It's just that Liu Ji has only been in office for one day, and he has been in the official system for all these years and has not been in power, how can he still "introspect"?

However, many things, for ordinary people, usually become a secret that can never be known. Some battles in officialdom are never on the surface, but on the bottom.

The capital is like a big whirlpool, even in a sunny season, there will be court bosses who suddenly fall for no reason. The external inspection has just been completed, and the left capital Yu Shi Paine officially sent a minister, and his son Pan Yunduan served as the head of the criminal department.

Although the reason is to avoid suspicion, there was a precedent for Yang Yanhe to be an official in the same dynasty as Yang Shen's father and son, and Fei Hong was an official in the same dynasty as his brothers, sons and nephews, so this reason is not sufficient.

However, there are well-informed people who know why.

Paine didn't want to be a son at first, but after assigning his son from the top three to the position of trainee director of the Criminal Department, he was met with unprecedented criticism, and finally forced him to choose to sacrifice himself to become a son.

The evening of April seemed to be long overdue.

A sedan chair stepped on the afterglow of the sun, turned from the street into the locust tree alley, and walked into an ordinary house. In the front yard, the sedan chair slowly stopped, and a little old man in a python robe pulled open the curtain and came out of it.

Xu Jie's stature is short, although he is the second assistant of the Ming Dynasty, but he does not have too much official authority on his body, and the whole person looks very kind, and his eyes are always warm.

After getting out of the sedan chair, he walked towards the back house. Although you are the second assistant of the Ming Dynasty, he works under the nose of the saint, which makes him feel pressure all the time.

"Dad, you're back!"

Xu Fan, who was wearing a four-grade official uniform, hurried over, met his father at the door of the study, and said happily.

Today he went to the Shuntian Mansion to meet with Liu Ji, and the two of them were thinking about how to punish that kid. It's just that with the arrival of Gonggong Chen, it can be said that a catastrophe fell from heaven, causing Liu Ji to fall from heaven to hell.

It's just that he doesn't have any answer to all this, and he doesn't know why the Holy Lord ordered Liu Ji to introspect at home, which made him feel like he had fallen into the clouds.

is also the same, he waited at home early for his father's return, trying to figure out what was going on, so as to find a way to "save" Liu Ji.

Xu Jie walked into the study, and the housekeeper brought tea, and then quietly retreated.

Xu Fan sat on the stool next to him like an ant in a hot pit, and immediately told everything about what happened today, and then looked at his father hopefully.

"I already know!" Xu Jie's face looked a little tired, and he poured up the teacup and said lightly.

"Dad, what the hell is going on? Why did the Holy One give this message? Did Liu Ji do something stupid? Xu Fan's face was very solemn, and he immediately asked again and again.

Xu Jie held the tea lid in his hand and gently plucked the hot tea, and said worriedly, "This matter is not Liu Ji's problem, but our problem!" ”

"We? How is this possible? Xu Fan had thought about all kinds of possibilities, but he had never thought about himself, and then looked at his father suspiciously.

Xu Jie sighed lightly, looked up at Xu Fan, and said seriously, "I also just learned that Lin Haoran has turned over Chen Yinshan's case and stabbed it to the Holy Lord!" ”

"It's this bastard again! No, how did he know about Chen Yinshan's case? Xu Fan seemed to grit his teeth, but after thinking about it, he asked in confusion.

This Chen Yinshan is the magistrate of Huating County, but when he went to Beijing at the end of last year, he had already died at the Tongzhou Station. And in order to avoid complications, they have already suppressed the case, but the truth is little known.

It's just that at this juncture, Lin Haoran not only knew about this case, but even stabbed the case to the saint, which really made Xu Fan both confused and angry.

Xu Jie took a sip of tea, and said with a sigh, "He not only knows about Chen Yinshan's case, but also knows that the person I want to recommend is Liu Ji, so when we met the emperor, we had already done a good job of foreshadowing, and we really underestimated him!" ”

At this point, a lot of things slowly come to the surface.

He has always kept a distance from Liu Ji, and followed Liu Ji to draw a clear line, making the outside world think that the two of them are not related.

It's just that all this can't be hidden from Lin Haoran's ears and eyes, and an impeachment of Liu Ji and Xu Fan has a very close relationship, which makes the rebuilding of Wanshou Palace suspected of being a prison guard and stealing it, so he Xu Jie and Liu Ji are pulled together.

Even if he wanted to refute it, he had already recommended Liu Ji to be the Yin of Shuntian Mansion, how could this matter be cleared?

Lin Haoran undoubtedly seized the opportunity and presented the truth of Chen Yinshan's death to Yan Song, and then went to Wanshou Palace to meet the saint in person, and then poured a large basin of stolen water on Xu Jie.

But all of this he only knew after the fact, and he was calculated without knowing it.

Although the saint did not refute his recommendation and agreed to let Liu Ji be the governor of Shuntian Mansion, it was naturally impossible for Liu Ji to be in charge of investigating Chen Yinshan and other cases, so he then issued an edict for Liu Ji to introspect himself at home.

Such a technique is the same as Yan Song's recommendation of Ouyang Bijin to serve as the secretary of the ministry last year, which is simply the same.

This oracle was explicitly aimed at Liu Ji, but in essence it was aimed at him Xu Jie, and the saint was already suspicious of him.

"Dad, Chen Yinshan is just an inconspicuous petty official, the Holy Lord shouldn't be so angry about his death, right?" After Xu Fan learned the reason, he asked in confusion.

Xu Jie put down the teacup, shook his head lightly, and said, "You really don't even deserve to lift shoes for Lin Wenkui!" Chen Yinshan naturally couldn't get into the eyes of the saint, but in this case, there was an assassination, but it was a taboo of the saint! Speaking of this, he didn't mean to continue, but instead issued an expulsion order, "Okay, I'm a little tired today, you go down!" ”

"Dad, is there really no turning point in Liu Ji's affairs? Shall we let that kid do whatever he wants? Xu Fan was very unwilling, and immediately agitated.

Xu Jie's face immediately sank, and he reprimanded angrily, "This is the meaning of the saint, do you still want to rebel against the saint?" Now that you have time to think about Liu Ji, it's better to think about yourself, whether Chen Yinshan's matter will catch up with you! ”

"How could this be on my head!" Xu Fan muttered, seeing that his father's face was not good, he gave a serious salute, and then hurriedly turned around and left.

Xu Jie picked up the teacup and looked at his son who left, but sighed lightly.

can only say that he still despised this Lin operator, and originally wanted to suppress this Lin operator, but he was beaten upside down. The He Jiu murder case, the Xu Mansion invasion case, and Chen Yinshan's case dragged him step by step into the mud.

If the matter could be repeated, he would definitely not be an enemy of this Lin operator, and would leave the position of Shuntian Mansion Yin to him, so as to exchange for the peace of his Xu Jie, instead of making a lot of noise now.

He had a hunch that this matter might not be over yet, and that kid even wanted to bring down his dignified Ming Cifu. 14 Friends who read books, you can search for "blue", and you can find this site as soon as possible.
