Chapter 662 Responding
Yang Shu is not very used to the climate in the north, it is too cold.
It was also cold and snowy in the Imperial City in December, but at least it would not be so cold as in Fengjie City where splashing water turned into ice. As long as you go out, it won't be long before you can put a layer of cream on your face.
Yang Shu's cultivation base is not high, not that kind of material, so too cold or too hot is not friendly to him.
I opened the window a little bit to let in some air, but it turned out to be a vast expanse of whiteness outside. Immediately, a biting cold wind rushed into the room, making Yang Shu shudder, and hastily closed it again.
The charcoal burning in the room was warm, but it was very stuffy, which made Yang Shu a little anxious.
"Where are the people from the Song family? Can you get them out?" Yang Shu opened the window a crack for the third time, took a breath of the biting but fresh air, and then frowned and asked the conspirators behind him.
"If you go back to the prince, the Ministry of Criminal Justice is very strict, and they will seize the Song family's private possession of a large number of pan-spiritual stones to investigate and prosecute. All the residences have been sealed, and all the accounts of the house have been taken away by the people from the Department of Major Cases of the Ministry of Criminal Justice."
"Accounts? Hehe, the people in the Ministry of Criminal Justice are naive. Do they think that they can find out about me by checking the accounts of the Song family? They can check the normal business transactions. By the way, find out the accounts of us and the Song family first. The book that was sold depends on whether the people in the Criminal Department dare to add something to the Song family's account, if they dare, this time this king will make them go around without food!"
The Song family's business did not rely on scarce resources such as Pan Lingshi at all. Restaurants, cloth, and tea were the businesses that the Song family had been engaged in for many years. So to say that the Song family had hidden a large number of pan-spirit stones, in Yang Shu's view, it was a joke. The Song family is not a cultivator, nor is it in the pan-soul stone business. Even if the family wants to use it, there is no need to store tens of thousands of them at home, right? What's more, such a valuable thing was just hastily hidden in the secret room under the woodshed in the other courtyard, which was too perfunctory.
But it is basically impossible to reverse the case now. The things were dug out in the Song family under the watchful eyes of the public. This is the case of the so-called taking people's dirt. As for whether it was framed? The Ministry of Criminal Justice is determined to clean up the Song family, will it help the Song family reverse the case?
So now Yang Shu's idea is to get the Song family out of the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Otherwise, who would want to live with him in the future?
But the good news is that "possessing prohibited materials" is not enough to beheaded. Even if the other party uses the "money and grain tightening strategy" as an example, it is still out of reach. After all, "holding" and "selling" are two different things. You can be punished, but you will never lose your life. This is also the reason why the Ministry of Punishment took someone to seal the house but did not search the house. Because it is not enough.
"First appease those who have close contacts with the Song family, so that they don't have to panic. At the same time, let them clean up all their internal and external things as soon as possible, and keep an eye on the family members. The Song family was raped , Let them also remind themselves.
By the way, did you find out why the Criminal Department targeted me this time? Who is it that planted the Song family behind the scenes? "
Yang Shu didn't think it was simply the Ministry of Criminal Justice who was messing with him. Behind the Ministry of Punishment is the Left Prime Minister Ye Lansheng, and now that the big exam is starting, if the forces of all parties do not stand in line in advance, there will be a longer wait-and-see period. Ye Lansheng had never heard of the prince standing in line before, what is he doing now? Was he tricked by Bai Changqing before venting his anger, or did he secretly stand with a certain prince?
"My lord, we don't have any information about this in our own intelligence. Neither Ma Xuanlin from the Ministry of Justice nor Ye Lansheng, the left minister, has any indication of which lord they have chosen. And there is no information about this from the Yueying Building. It's just that Ye Lansheng met King Jing and King Qian twice in private recently.
So we thought it was possible for Ye Lansheng to choose one of King Jing and King Qian as his favourite. "
Yang Shu frowned deeply. If it is said that the most powerful person recognized today is his elder brother, that is, King Jing Yang Baicheng. The second is his second elder brother, who is the dry king Yangye.
As Ye Lansheng is the head of civil servants today, if he chooses someone, there must be a large number of officials in Guochao who will follow suit and choose the same team. Invisibly, at least half of the civil servants can be taken down.
Of course, Yang Shu's power now can fundamentally weaken Ye Lansheng's "example role" to a great extent. If you think about it carefully, does this count as stealing Ye Lansheng's manpower and influence?
"The people from Yueyinglou stared at Ye Lansheng and the people from the Ministry of Criminal Justice. If they really took refuge in my elder brother or second brother, they would definitely show their feet. As for the Song family, let our people impeach the Ministry of Criminal Justice at the next court meeting. As, it is clear that the case can be closed as soon as possible, but it is procrastinated, suspected of carrying private goods.
Then I found out what kind of business was behind Ma Xuanlin and Ye Lansheng, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, and I messed up everything after I found out. "
Yang Shu is not a persimmon, although many people think he is. But this time Yang Shu wasn't going to swallow his anger.
Yes, the positions of you Ye Lansheng and Ma Xuanlin are currently in the position of Yang Shu, who is only a prince. But the huge business network in Yang Shu's hands is really a vegetarian? Is it well-decorated?
"Will this anger Ye Lansheng? After all, it is not yet determined whether Ye Lansheng will fall to King Jing or King Qian, so the subordinates think they should bear it a little longer?"
"You don't need to bear it anymore. Since Ye Lansheng dared to jump out and put his selfishness above the righteousness of the country, he was destined to have a bad ending. Do you think you can hide everyone without evidence? We can guess, I Those elder brothers can't figure it out? Can you not know that there are so many counselors under the emperor's father?
Therefore, whether Ye Lansheng took refuge in my elder brother or second elder brother is not so important. A blind tiger, is it still a tiger?
If you don't believe me, wait until we clear up Ye Lansheng's and Ma Xuanlin's fortunes, then Ye Lansheng may not be able to protect himself. "
The mastermind who was standing with his hands tied nodded when he heard the words. Yang Shu's guess was not impossible. In addition, now is the time for all parties to show their knives, and the method of swallowing one's anger is indeed a little bit meaningless.
"The subordinate understands. Just do as you ordered, my lord."
"Well, remember, don't leave the family to them, let Zuo Xiang and the minister of the Ministry of punishment have a taste of what it's like to live purely on salary. I hope they have a surplus at home, otherwise it will be ridiculous."
Who among the senior officials in the court relies on their salaries to make a living? Who can support more than a dozen servants on the basis of salary alone? What Yang Shu has to do is to let everyone know that offending him is not trivial, but that he may not even be able to afford food!
Ke Qing took the order and hurried to do it. Yang Shu was left alone holding a cup of hot tea and continuing to flip through the documents in his hand. On it was his subordinate Ke Qing's analysis of Xuan Qingwei's previous actions.
"It seems that Pang Ban really intends to watch the show. Anyway, it's good for him to watch the show. This will free up his hands to deal with other people."
