After I traveled through the book, my sister kidnapped my mother
Chapter 545 Game
Wen Zhimiao unfolded the letter, which was written in great detail.
Cui Wenhuan, the nephew of the governor of Yuanzai County, previously served as the supervisor of the government's saltpeter factory. This time, the gunpowder was transferred to the hands of the Beirong assassin through him.
A lot of gunpowder was shipped out in the name of testing new firecrackers. Therefore, he was the supervisor of the saltpeter factory. In addition, he had conspired with his superiors to make a lot of money by secretly selling firecrackers. This time, he used this name to deceive his superiors.
The Beirong assassins were able to enter Yunjing smoothly through a merchant from Huyanguo. Tianqi had been friends with Huyanguo for many years and was relatively tolerant of Huyanguo's merchants. The Beirong assassins held the family of this merchant hostage as a threat.
"Merchant Hu Yan has been killed, and his family members were found dead on the way to Yunjing." Qi Guyu handed over the merchant's ID card.
"The body was found in a mass grave outside the city. The face was destroyed beyond recognition, but the clothes, some belongings and birthmarks matched."
"All the information about the residences, travels, hobbies, and daily routines of the targeted officials was leaked to the Northern Rong by Zhou Xi, a doctor in the Ministry of Personnel's Examination Department. Zhou Xi has always had a hobby of gambling. He used to gamble a little for fun, but this year he suddenly gambled a lot and lost all his family fortune. He was harassed by the people in the gambling house, which happened last month."
"The Supervisory Council investigated and found that the gambling house has always been the base of the Northern Rong spies in Yunjing."
"Beirong Xizuo's base has existed in Yunjing for so many years. What is the Supervisory Office doing?" Wen Zhimiao asked coldly.
Qi Guyu knelt down immediately and said, "The Supervisory Council failed in its duty. I am willing to accept the punishment."
"go on."
"The Supervisory Council had not discovered this base before because the gambling house had always been managed by the relatives of the Minister of Works. This time, we conducted an in-depth investigation and found that the husband of Minister of Works Sun was the son of a Northern Rong and a Tianqi. Further investigation revealed that Minister Sun's husband was a branch of the Northern Rong Yila tribe. The Yila tribe was one of the Northern Rong tribes that was extremely dissatisfied with the Northern Rong King, but was later defeated by the Northern Rong King. However, the Yila tribe has become strong again in recent years, and it is hard not to suspect that this incident has nothing to do with it."
"As for the loopholes in the city defense, they were leaked by people in Jingzhao Prefecture. Although these people may not hold high positions, they are extremely familiar with the situation of Yunjing's defense."
"After all, they were all bribed or threatened by Beirong. Who is the person behind the scenes?" Wen Zhimiao took the letter and deliberately didn't read it, waiting for Qi Guyu to continue.
"That's true, but the important thing is who told the Beirong assassins that they could bribe and use these people. Even if the Beirong spies infiltrated Yunjing, they couldn't know so much about my Tianqi's official system." Qi Guyu continued.
Wen Zhimiao's lips curled up slightly. This was what she wanted to know.
"Who did you find out about it?"
"Minister of the Ministry of Rites." Qi Guyu said in a low voice.
"Honglu Temple?" Wen Zhimiao sneered, "They have come up with a pretty good scapegoat."
"Is there any evidence?" Wen Zhimiao asked.
"Yes, we found the private seal of the Minister of the Ministry of Rites on the letter between the Northern Rong spies and the insiders." Qi Guyu handed over the letter and the private seal.
"So what do you want to ask? Who are the people who need evidence to be collected before they can be convicted?" Wen Zhimiao asked indifferently.
"Do you want to arrest the Minister of the Honglu Temple directly?"
Wen Zhimiao tapped the table with his fingertips and thought for a long time. Whether to grab or not was a difficult question.
The fact that Qi Guyu was able to find out about him showed that it was the person behind the scenes who asked her to find out. If he was caught, the person behind the scenes would let down his guard.
If we don't catch him and the case cannot be solved within ten days, these people will take the opportunity to find Qi Guyu's mistakes.
It actually allowed the opponent to counterattack, which was a good move.
"I won't arrest him, but I'll make Qi Qing stay in the Heavenly Prison for some time. Now that you take the blame, it can be considered as making up for your mistake." If Qi Guyu is unable to take the position of the head of the Supervisory Council, then Wen Zhimiao really doesn't have any suitable candidate in the court for the time being.
"Find a way to accuse Su Yubing of a crime that can be cleared, so that she can have a reason to seek refuge."
Wen Zhimiao suddenly remembered that everyone was busy, and only Su Yubing, the Minister of Rites, was idle.
It’s not that the Ministry of Rites really has nothing to do. The Ministry of Rites naturally has things it needs to do, but Su Yubing is really too idle, and she can’t stand it.
Qi Guyu was stunned for a moment, then immediately agreed: "I understand."
"Although the fault this time is not entirely at the hands of the Overwatch Council, I will punish you and others who have committed the offense. Do you understand, Qi Qing?"
There was nothing Qi Guyu didn't understand. She was even a little relieved. With a combination of kindness and severity, the man she had watched grow up had finally become a true emperor.
"I understand. Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Don't talk about those who lack evidence for now. Come and tell me when you have evidence." In the past, Wen Zhimiao would continue to ask who the people were who lacked evidence, but not now. Without evidence, there would be no speculation and no conviction. The emperor hated conviction based on suspicion the most.
"If you have nothing else to say, go down." Wen Zhimiao's tone softened a lot.
As soon as Qi Guyu left, the maid came to report that Shi Wanyue had woken up.
Wen Zhimiao hurriedly walked out towards the bedroom. Qi Guyu had not taken two steps when he saw the emperor coming out, looking anxious.
It goes without saying that it must be related to Shi Wanyue. Wen Zhimiao had completely blocked the news of Shi Wanyue's awakening. No one knew about it except a few people in the palace, and Qi Guyu was no exception.
Therefore, everyone was worried about Shi Wanyue's injury. Seeing Wen Zhimiao's anxious look, Qi Guyu thought that her injury might have worsened.
Shi Wanyue had just woken up for a while, and Wen Zhimiao came back before she even got out of bed. She was seriously injured and couldn't see, so she couldn't get out of bed without someone to support her. Any big movement would hurt her wound, so no one dared to help her out of bed.
"Sister." Shi Wanyue heard Wen Zhimiao as soon as she came in. The next moment Wen Zhimiao was sitting beside her bed, calling her in a gentle tone.
"Aren't you in a meeting? Why are you back?" Shi Wanyue asked with a smile.
"I met Qi Guyu. She found out that the case was committed by the Minister of the Ministry of Rites. She came here to ask for instructions. It's nothing big. Do you want to do anything after waking up?" Wen Zhimiao asked because he was afraid that she would be bored.
"Well, then please tell me what is going on, Your Majesty?" Shi Wanyue said with a smile.
"Didn't you agree not to think about these things?" Wen Zhimiao asked helplessly.
Shi Wanyue hooked her hand: "Curious~ Can't I know?"
Wen Zhimiao couldn't stand her coquettishness, so he told Shi Wanyue everything that had just happened.
"Charge Dean Qi with the crime of embezzlement..." After listening to this, Shi Wanyue nodded slightly: "It's a good idea."
"What if the person behind the scenes doesn't fall for it?"
"Of course, he wants to make you seriously injured and in danger of death, so that the relationship between me and the master will break down. Isn't that what he wants? I will give it to him."
The bait is right in front of you, it just depends on whether you want to take the gamble on this fish.
What's more, Huoyun Jiuzhao from Beirong will naturally know how to do it.
