my wife is mulan

He Yong didn't agree, and turned his head to glance at the little official standing beside him.

The little official hurriedly bowed to Zhao Pingping: "This subordinate has to go to work first!"

After the little official left, He Yong said to Zhao Ping: "Your Highness, although this is a strong evidence, it is fine if it is an ordinary official. It can dismiss them for questioning, but the few records on it Everyone is an important minister of the court, and the weight of this account book is a little bit light, and the subordinates think that this case should continue to collect their criminal evidence, and make this case an iron case, so that they have nothing to say!"

Zhao Ping thought about it, and replied: "Okay, you can handle this matter, and fully control them from now on!"

"promise!"

The little official who had just resigned did not go far away, but hid outside the door to eavesdrop. He heard that the two had already discussed, and immediately dodged and hid. When He Yong left, he quietly returned to Zhao Ping's classroom , and then stretched out his head to look inside, and saw that Zhao Ping was putting the account book in a bookcase, covered it with many books, and locked it with a small copper lock.

The little official left quickly, and he quickly came to the next room, which was the room of Zou Ruhai, the servant of the Ministry of Punishment.

"Servant, something is wrong!"

Zou Ruhai saw Bai Shan walking in with a flustered expression, and asked, "Bai Shan, why are you so flustered?"

Bai Shan walked over and whispered a few words in Zou Ruhai's ear. Zou Ruhai's face lost all color in an instant after hearing it. He was flustered for a while, and finally all these years of senior official career allowed him to quickly control his emotions and stabilize his mind.

"This thing can't fall into their hands. It's not up to the Secretary of the Imperial City or the King of Shu to decide how effective it is as evidence. It's up to His Majesty. If His Majesty says it can't be used as evidence, it doesn't." Use it, His Majesty said it can be used as evidence, it is a decapitating knife!"

Bai Shan asked eagerly: "Minister, what should we do now?"

Zou Ruhai's brain was working quickly, he thought for a while and said: "We must find a way to get this account book, wait..."

Bai Shan asked in surprise, "What's the matter, servant?"

Zou Ruhai frowned and said, "Could this be a trick by the king of Shu?"

Bai Shan thought for a while and said: "Master, can we afford to gamble? If it is true...and the king of Shu handed it over to His Majesty..."

When Zou Ruhai thought about it, he really couldn't afford to gamble, no matter whether the account book was real or not, he had to find a way to get it and see it!

After some consideration and weighing, Zou Ruhai immediately said to Baishan: "Well, now, I will find an excuse to lure the King of Shu away. I will give you half a day. You find a way to go outside and find someone who is proficient in lockpicking to go to the King of Shu's house." Steal the account books from the classroom! Remember, you must silence the matter after it is done, no one can stand the investigation and interrogation of the Imperial City Secretary, if the person you are looking for leaks the word, you and I will be finished!"

"Understood, this subordinate will go now!"

After Bai Shan left, Zou Ruhai pondered for a while in the classroom, thought about countermeasures, and then came directly to Zhao Ping's classroom.

"Boom, boom, boom!" Zou Ruhai walked to the door of Zhao Ping's class and knocked on the door, "Your Highness!"

Zhao Ping looked up and saw Zou Ruhai, and waved with a smile on his face: "Master Zou, come in!"

Zou Ruhai walked into the class room and saluted: "I have met Your Highness!"

Zhao Ping got up and said: "Zou Shilang is here for something?"

Zou Ruhai said: "Your Highness, it's like this. Last year, His Majesty ordered the Ministry of Punishment to rebuild the sky prison. The Ministry of Punishment handed over the construction project to the Ministry of Industry. A few days ago, people from the Ministry of Industry said that it was completed. Let us send someone to Acceptance, I don’t know if His Highness is free today, I will accompany His Highness to take over the prison, if there is any problem, you can let the officials of the Ministry of Industry return to work on the spot!"

Zhao Pingdao: "Do you have to accept it today?"

Zou Ruhai smiled and said: "That's not true, it's just that the date was set early in the morning, and it's not impossible to change the date, just send someone to notify the chief officer of the Ministry of Industry..."

"Then... that's fine, you wait for me, I have someone prepare chariots and horses!"

"promise!"

A moment later, Zhao Ping and Zou Ruhai went to Xintian Prison to receive them in carriages outside the gate of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

After walking for two minutes, the carriage arrived at the gate of Xintian Prison. This place is a bit remote, and there are few residents around.

Getting off the carriage, Zhao Ping saw the towering gate of Xintian Prison, with a watchtower on each side of the gate. There were soldiers and crossbowmen standing guard on the watchtower. There was also a group of soldiers standing guard in front of the gate, standing side by side on both sides. Two soldiers, the corporal leader was walking back and forth in front of the gate with a sword in his hand.

Zou Ruhai got out of the carriage, walked over to Zhao Ping and said, "Your Highness, this is the new sky prison, and the original sky prison was renamed the dungeon. According to your Majesty's intention, from now on, ordinary death row prisoners will be held in the dungeon, and they will enter the dungeon." People in the dungeon basically cannot get out alive; ordinary criminals who are not under the death penalty are either imprisoned in the prisons of Chang'an and Wannian counties, or in the prison of Jingzhao Mansion, but all prisoners in the dungeon are sentenced to death!

And here—the sky prison, the relatives of the emperor, court ministers, military generals or high-level executives will be escorted here to be imprisoned if they commit crimes. Even if it is the death penalty, they will die more decently, either with a glass of poisoned wine or a white silk! "

Zhao Ping sized it up and asked, "Is this prison built under your auspices?"

Zou Ruhai said modestly: "It's an exaggeration to say that the lower official presided over it. The lower official just ran a few more times. The structure diagram of the sky prison was drawn by the officials of the Ministry of Industry. The lower official just came up with a little idea." , put forward some requirements, and the Ministry of Industry made some modifications on the structural drawing according to our requirements!"

Zhao Ping looked at it, "Oh, this sky prison is not a good place. If necessary, I hope that I will never come here for the rest of my life! Zou Shilang, you said that if one day you, the presiding builder of the sky prison, are imprisoned Wouldn't it be a kind of irony if you entered the sky prison?"

Zou Shilang's face froze.

"Hahaha, Zou Shilang, I'm just joking with you!" Zhao Ping laughed and patted Zou Shilang on the shoulder and walked towards the gate of the prison, followed by several guards.

Just when Zhao Ping and Zou Ruhai were taking over Xintian Prison, Bai Shan, a small official of the Ministry of Punishment, brought a young man with a wretched appearance into the Ministry of Punishment.

After passing the double inspection, the two stopped near a long row of classrooms. Bai Shan whispered to the young man: "Did you see the most magnificent classroom in the middle and in front of the door? What you have to do is to find a way to open it after entering." The copper lock of the bookcase, and then steal an account book that is pressed by books inside, the account book is like this... Do you understand? I will wait for you here. After you get it, you must restore the copper lock, and then quickly Come here and join me!"

The young man nodded: "Understood!"

"Okay, go, be careful!"

This gentleman on Liang is very skilled in craftsmanship. He easily opened the copper lock on the bookcase in Zhao Ping's class. After searching, he found the account book. He put it in his arms and quickly closed the bookcase, then locked the copper lock. , turned around and left quickly.

Arriving at the meeting place, Bai Shan stretched out his hand eagerly: "Bring the account book!"

The young man smiled and said, "Half of the money is left!"

Bai Shan said angrily in a low voice: "I can't even fit thirty guns on me. I'll give it to you after I get out. Don't worry, I'll still renege on my debt?"

Reluctantly, the young man reached out and took out the account book in his arms and handed it over, Bai Shan took it and quickly flipped through it.

At this moment, more than a dozen policemen suddenly appeared and surrounded him.

Bai Shan looked up when he heard the movement, his face changed drastically, and before he could react, a few arresters rushed up and threw him and the gentleman Liang Shang who stole the account books to the ground, no matter how hard they struggled, they couldn't get away.

A group of policemen came over, looked at Baishan and the young thief, and said with a sneer, "As expected, His Highness! Come here, take me away!"

At this time, a head of the criminal department came over and shouted: "Who are you? Why are you arresting people in the criminal department?"

The head catcher took out his badge and waved it in front of the head of the criminal department: "Xing Zuoming, the head catcher of the imperial city, was ordered by His Highness the King of Shu to investigate the case. If anyone who has nothing to do with him wants to stop him, he will be regarded as an accomplice to the criminal!"

The head of the criminal department was so frightened that he took two steps back, yelling bad luck in his heart, scolding himself for meddling in other people's business, he quickly said with a smile on his face: "I don't know the truth, I'm being abrupt, this arrester, please go ahead!"

The head catcher waved his face coldly and said, "Let's go!"

When Zhao Ping got the news and rushed to the Imperial City Department from Tianlao, the head catcher Xing Zuoming and others were preparing to interrogate Baishan and the thief he had found.

Accompanied by Si Cheng He Yong, Zhao Ping came to watch the interrogation outside the torture room.

After a while, the thief who was found by Baishan was caught by the arresters. Come, he pays me to work, I am innocent!"

"What's your name?"

"Ge Laosan!"
