My father is Jiajing

Chapter 312 The Ming Dynasty Still Has Laws

Emperor Jiajing looked with great interest at the secret report from the Eastern Depot spies handed over by Huang Jin.

After he finished reading it, he suddenly burst into a hearty laugh.

"Hahaha, this is getting more and more interesting. I guess it won't be long before my place gets busy too."

After reading the secret report, Emperor Jiajing felt very happy and was also looking forward to future developments.

Huang Jin looked at the expectant Emperor Jiajing and couldn't help but ask curiously, "What's wrong, Your Majesty?"

Huang Jin had a special relationship with Emperor Jiajing, and such questions could only be asked between family and friends. If he had a different identity and still wanted to ask the emperor questions so casually, it would be extremely disrespectful.

After Emperor Jiajing finished laughing, he handed the secret report to Huang Jin again and said, "Excellent, excellent, really excellent! I didn't expect that Yan Shifan, who is so clever, would be stunned by his cleverness."

Huang Jin looked quickly at the secret report in his hand. He couldn't help but smile when he saw the information that the imperial physician from the Imperial Medical Bureau called by Yan Shifan and Li Shizhen and his apprentice from the Medical Academy invited by Hai Rui entered the dormitory of the work shed together with officials from the Ministry of Justice, Dali Temple, Shuntian Prefecture and other government offices.

Huang Jin smiled and said, "Emperor, the secret report said that after Yan Shifan came out of the dormitory in the Chongwenmen shed, he was furious and wanted to come to complain to the emperor. If he really comes, will you meet him?"

Emperor Jiajing smiled and said, "Of course I did. I haven't been this happy for a long time. It's not easy to have fun, so I must watch the fun. Moreover, I also want to know what these people saw in the workers' sheds and dormitories. After all, there is no report of what happened in the workers' sheds and dormitories in these secret reports."

"I am also itching to find out what happened in the dormitory and what made Yan Shifan so angry. This is really interesting."

Huang Jin was happy to see Emperor Jiajing so interested.

Because he also knew that if the Emperor Jiajing was in a good mood, this year would be much smoother. Otherwise, given the Emperor Jiajing's moody character, except for himself and some of his trusted eunuchs, the lives of many young palace maids and eunuchs might be in danger because of some unknown anger of the Emperor Jiajing.

Therefore, when Huang Jin saw how happy Emperor Jiajing was, he couldn't help but feel happy for the servants in the Xiyuan Palace, happy that they could finally have a good and peaceful new year.

Otherwise, if anyone accidentally offended Emperor Jiajing, he would be beaten to death.

After all, deep down, Emperor Jiajing was still that mean and ungrateful person, and not really that kind and gentle.

The reason why he values ​​Prince Yu so much is because too many of his children have died and he has lost his mind. Otherwise, he would not be so crazy as to believe in rumors and nonsense such as "two dragons will never meet", because he really can't bear to see any more accidents happen to himself and his children.

Although those who practice Taoism also talk about being ruthless, no matter how much he practices, he is still a human being, and he does not want to be the second to his cousin.

Therefore, the high regard that Emperor Jiajing holds for the current Prince Yu is also an involuntary affection for his child, which has nothing to do with checks and balances of power or the law of nature.

After all, he has no choice now, because King Jing has ruined himself, so only King Yu can inherit his future and give a better evaluation and record of his future than his cousin.

At the gate of the dormitory outside Chongwenmen, Yan Shifan barked helplessly, "Hai Rui, do you dare to confront me in front of the emperor?"

Hai Rui looked at Yan Shifan calmly and said in a calm tone: "Why not? It's just that I am worried that the young minister will lose his prestige if he does this." Yan Shifan roared: "Prestige? Do you think you can say anything about my prestige? This time you even destroyed the body and covered up all the evidence. Do you really think there is such a thing as a perfect crime in this world? It's not too late for you to plead guilty now. Otherwise, if this matter comes before His Majesty, you won't have enough heads to chop off even if you have a hundred."

Hai Rui said calmly, "Young Lord, you are too polite. I only have one head. And that is the truth. Your Majesty will never be swayed by your words and chop off my head."

The more Yan Shifan listened to the tone of voice, the more infuriating this Hai Hei Lian was. He always spoke in such a harsh voice and had a dignified and calm expression, which made him look worthless in comparison. He was extremely over-experienced!

Therefore, Yan Shifan stopped arguing with Hai Rui.

Yan Shifan stared viciously at Hai Rui, Gao Gong, Zhang Juzheng, Li Shizhen and his disciples, and Wang Youzhao.

Finally, Yan Shifan snorted again, "None of you can escape. I will go to Xiyuan to see His Majesty now! Under His Majesty's divine eyes, I wonder how you can hide!"

After saying these words, Yan Shifan glared viciously at the officials from the Ministry of Justice, the Dali Temple, and the imperial physicians from the Imperial Medical Bureau.

"Guard this place, not even a fly can escape!"

Yan Shifan gave this order to Li Defang and others almost at a roar.

However, Li Defang and others were not his direct subordinates, so they were not afraid of Yan Shifan's threats and could only respond in a pretense.

After all, just now, they followed Hai Rui and others in to check the situation, and there were indeed only dead sheep, and no signs of any dead people.

Although the workers' shed and dormitory were thoroughly searched at Yan Shifan's request, there was still no sign of death.

In response, Yan Shifan angrily scolded the people from the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple, saying that they were incompetent.

But are the people in the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple really incompetent? They also have many experienced detectives and coroners under their command. For any clues, they also have their own set of search standards and will never miss any suspicious points.

But now Yan Shifan actually denounced them all as worthless and good for nothing, which was really a bit disrespectful.

Therefore, it is understandable that Li Defang and others have a perfunctory attitude towards Yan Shifan.

And Li Defang and others also thought: I am upright and upright. Although you, Yan Shifan, are powerful, you can't cover the sky with one hand and do whatever you want! There are still laws in the Ming Dynasty!
Therefore, Li Defang and others responded to Yan Shifan's request with a hidden needle in cotton wool: "Young Lord, there are no flies in the winter. There will definitely be no flies flying out from here."

After hearing the response from Li Defang and others, Yan Shifan suddenly felt a little dizzy. He was so annoyed that one of his eyes became blurry and he felt like he was going blind.
