Chapter 51

The prefect was confused at this moment. Chen Xiao said that the case file just now was used to impeach him?

What does it mean?

He had no intention of drinking tea, so he quickly got up and chased him out and said to Chen Xiao:

"Chen Xiao, what do you mean?"

"It's not interesting. Just kidding you, don't be excited!" Chen Xiao said.

The prefect finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Just kid, I'm almost scared to death by your kid. I thought you wrote the content to impeach me and handed it over."

Chen Xiao curled his lips: "Don't worry, am I that kind of person?"

The prefect suddenly became nervous again: "You said that... I'm really a little worried."

Chen Xiao laughed and then returned to the west prison hall.

The prefect always feels uneasy, but there is nothing we can do about it.

So, I can only ignore this.

When Chen Xiao returned to the criminal law office, he finished reviewing some cases and had nothing to do. So he turned around in the government office with his hands behind his back.

First, I went to the prison and inspected the prison.

Li Pingzhi, the prisoner of Si, kept following Chen Xiao. After inspecting, Chen Xiao said to him:

"This prison must look like a prison. In the future, there is no possibility of coming in and visiting it at will."

Li Pingzhi frowned. If this happens, wouldn’t he be unable to make any money?

But there was nothing I could do, so I could only nod and say, "The official understands!"

Last time, Chen Xiao did not reveal any flaws in the son of the Ministry of Personnel's Examination Department. Instead, the prefectural director was embarrassed by the failure of the plan, which led to Li Pingzhi, who was given advice, being scolded and became more honest.

After all, Chen Xiao is a sixth-ranked promoter. Although he ranks fifth in the government office, he is in charge of justice and has great power.

As a small prisoner, please stop seeking death.

Then Chen Xiao went to wander around and saw Parliament Zhou Tong.

Punishment Zhou Tong was returning from business with someone. When he saw Chen Xiao, he frowned and prepared to take a detour.

"Hey, Parliament Zhou Tong, why do you hide when you see me..." Chen Xiao went up to him.

While hiding, Zhou Tong said, "Is there any? No!"

"Do you have any idea?" Chen Xiao sneered.

Zhou Tongzhang smiled and said, "Hehe, I won't talk to you if I'm busy with official duties..."

"Hey, Zhou Tong, just now the government office went out to impeach you. He was stamped by the prefectural minister and sent him to the Ministry of Justice." Chen Xiao said.

Punishment Zhou Tong was stunned: "Impossessed me? The prefect still stamped me?"

"Yeah!" Chen Xiao nodded.

Judge Zhou Tong took a deep breath: "It's impossible. Even if someone in the government office impeaches me, the prefectural chief will not be able to submit it... Besides, if you impeach an official and send it to the Ministry of Justice, why do you have to stamp it with the prefectural chief?"

"Maybe I want the emperor to see it, it's more serious." Chen Xiao said.

The judge frowned: "This... have you seen it with your own eyes?"

"It's true!" Chen Xiao said.

Zhou Tongzong's face darkened: "How could the prefect be like this? No, I have to go and ask..."

So, Zhou Tong went there in a hurry.

When he arrived at the lobby of the Houya, Prison Zhou Tong hurriedly asked: "Mr. Gong, I heard that someone impeached me. Have you sent me to the Ministry of Justice?"

"Who told you?" The prefect was stunned.

Zhou Tongzong said: "Chen Xiao!"

When the prefect heard this, he suddenly felt relieved and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, this kid is joking. He just came to me to stamp the case file and sent me to the Ministry of Justice, and said that I was impeaching me. I was worried for a while. Now I said that I was impeaching you, hahaha, obviously joking."

Punishment Zhou Tong breathed a sigh of relief: "Is that... naughty..."

Both of them were worried.

However, they did not expect that Chen Xiao was not a joke.

At this moment, the impeachment of the two of them and the case files collected about their suspected crimes have already arrived at the Ministry of Justice.

At this moment, in the lobby of the Ministry of Justice, the Left Minister of the Ministry of Justice was reading more than a dozen case files and impeachment contents on his hands.

He looked strange and said, "This... the documents and case files that impeach the prefect and the magistrate, and the prefect himself stamped the seal? This... he took himself to death?"

On the side, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice shook his head and said, "Let me show it to the Secretary of the State. If the Secretary of the State has no objection, he will send it to the palace."

Without further ado, the Minister of Justice was stunned when he saw this letter of impeachment and related case files, and said:

"I have seen many impeachments from this official, and the impeached person has also personally stamped the impeachment documents. This is the first time I have met this official. Is this imperial prefect so stupid?"

The Left Minister said: "Sir, this document impeachment of the prefect should be submitted to Your Majesty? Besides, this matter is quite strange."

"Well, I must submit it to Your Majesty. I will go now." The Minister of Justice said, and then entered the palace with a thick document.

In the palace, the eunuch took the documents from the Minister of Justice to the emperor.

The emperor was very interested because it was a document presented by Chen Xiao.

"Well? Why did the imperial capital prefect still stamp it?" He was puzzled.

Below, the Secretary of State also said: "Your Majesty, this is also something that I think is strange..."

The emperor did not speak anymore, opened the impeachment content and started to look carefully.

After a while, his face turned gloomy and then he looked at the attached case files.

The case files are all mentioned in the impeachment letter. For example, there is a case file that two months ago, a businessman did not pay the wages to the workers, and several workers died accidentally when they asked for money.

The case file records that the prefectural chief examined it personally and finally determined that several workers died by accident and did not write down any accidents in detail, but the workers' families signed it.

In the impeachment letter, Chen Xiao stated that after his investigation, several workers were beaten to death by merchants, and their families were forced to sign and seal, and each received only a few taels of silver for compensation.

There are several cases like this where the case files are unclear and there is no evidence, and the results of the handling are suspicious.

In addition, there are also suspected corruption, bribery, and the fact that there is no investigation record or evidence about the Chen Wenshan corruption case.

After the emperor read it carefully, his heart was filled with anger.

At the same time, he felt glad that fortunately he did not rush to kill the prefect for the imperial examination in the court.

Otherwise, how could Chen Xiao find so many unjust cases that were slaughtered by the prefect?

At the same time, the emperor was also shocked. He wanted Chen Xiao to come to deal with the prefect, but he didn't expect that he would come so quickly, so fiercely, and so strangely.

What is strange is that it is an impeachment document that clearly puts the prefect to death, but the prefect himself has stamped it. Isn’t it magical?

The emperor took a deep breath: "Minister of the Ministry of Justice, I will give the power to the Imperial Capital Office to investigate thoroughly and have the right to interrogate all officials of the Imperial Capital Office."

The Minister of Justice changed his face, but he didn't expect the emperor to trust the little promoter so much.

Soon, the order was passed down.

The Minister of Justice personally went to the Imperial Capital to issue an oral order from the emperor, and all the officials of the Imperial Capital knelt down.

"Your Majesty's oral order, the Imperial Capital Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture

After the Minister of Justice finished speaking, the officials of the Imperial Capital were stunned.

Immediately, the prefect and the magistrate looked at Chen Xiao, with an indescribable expression.
