Chapter 183 The difference between closeness and distance
The emperor's attitude was very firm.
After all, in the Ming Dynasty, if an official was to be arrested for criminal interrogation, there was no need to obtain very conclusive evidence. The factory guards and prison system in the Ming Dynasty decided that the case could not only be made explicit, but also follow a "special process".
Zhang Yanling suddenly said: "Your Majesty, I think you should consider it again."
None of the civil and military ministers present came out to object. It was Zhang Yanling who came out to object?
Zhu Youzhang frowned and said, "Do you have a better insight?"
Zhang Yanling hurriedly said, "I just think that I should listen to the opinions of all the ministers and ministers in this matter more. They urged me from Shandong to the capital, and let the matter be leaked at the cost of leaking the news. Now there is no ironclad evidence, so I will just take the imperial prison and deal with it directly. Will it be..."
It turned out that he did not have better suggestions, but just showed off his power to civil officials.
You Zhang Yanling is really...
"Enough!" Zhu Youting was almost speechless. He looked furious and shouted, "You didn't hear a word of what I said before, right?"
"hehe."
Zhang Yanling was questioned by the emperor in this way, but he was still laughing proudly.
What is Zhang Yanling's brain?
He didn't know his position in the court?
If he does whatever the emperor says, then he is still the arrogant relative of the foreigner?
So what is the difference between him and a civil servant who follows the rules and obeys the command?
Listen to the emperor's refusal to show off his teeth and claws. In the short term, the emperor's face will be better, but in the long run, how can the emperor trust you? How can he continue to hand over the matter to you in the future? How can he continue to use you to check and balance the court officials?
So Zhang Yanling knew that continuing to let those civil officials fail to come to Taiwan would bring some backlash, but he still enjoyed it.
That's it.
I am arrogant, I am vicious, I am presumptuous, that is the me trusted in the eyes of the emperor.
"That ministers, I'm really sorry. It's not that I don't want to surrender and let Your Majesty pursue me and the fire and kill people. You have heard the truth, and this case has to be investigated." Zhang Yanling never ended. Just before Zhu Youzhe was about to have a face attack, Zhang Yanling turned around and said, "Your Majesty, I plead for the investigation and handling of this case. I hope Your Majesty will be approved."
Zhu Youzhang slowly fell down in one breath.
Finally, I don’t have to punish my brother-in-law in the court.
He also found the steps and nodded, "The Chief of the Hegong Department, I have handed over the investigation to you. If you don't have to do this case, who else will be more familiar with you? You guys, don't you have any objections?"
Previously, Zhu Youzhang was still accusing Zhang Yanling of showing off his power to those civil officials, but in a blink of an eye, the emperor's accent of asking questions was clearly provocative.
No wonder Zhu Youzhang.
Who made Zhu Youling feel relieved as much as Zhang Yanling?
I insist on using my relatives. You keep saying that this relative is so bad and keep impeaching me. The court has even said nothing about my employer before.
Now let you know that this relative of the foreigner can not only make trouble, but also can do things.
Can you do that if he found such a big case?
The civil officials present seemed to have eaten yellow lotus.
If Zhang Yanling really investigated the case and recovered hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, and found out the culprit behind the scenes, wouldn't the emperor still hold Zhang Yanling to the sky? Not to mention fighting with the important criminals during the investigation, even if Zhang Yanling really went to the street to kill someone casually and accused him of being involved in the case, these ministers would have no way to do anything.
Even Tu Fei, who had previously accused Zhang Yanling, had nothing to say.
Zhang Yanling said: "Shangshu Tu, didn't you think that the Ming Dynasty was like this before, and I, Zhang Yanling, are like this? You won't come out to express your opinions now?"
Tu Wei glanced at Zhang Yanling with a squint, pretending that he didn't hear it.
Zhu Youting had long been accustomed to his brother-in-law's sharp words, so he pretended that he hadn't heard this. He said firmly: "Since that's the case, then this case will be completely handed over to Jianchang Bo."
"I obey the order." Zhang Yanling immediately received the order.
"In addition, the soldiers I sent to Shandong to accompany you will not be taken back for the time being, and will remain by your side to protect you." Zhu Youzhang thought deeply and made arrangements.
Xu Pu said: "Your Majesty, this is probably inappropriate."
Zhu Youzhi said: "I know Mr. Xu's concerns, but I have to consider that this case is very involved. The culprit behind the scenes will be unfavorable to Jianchang Bo. I don't want Jianchang Bo to encounter an unexpected accident before finding out the case. At the same time, I will send more people to help him do things. What's wrong?"
Well-reasoned.
Xu Pu has trouble saying.
If a relative in the capital is not many, there may be only a few hundred people, it will still have a certain impact on the safety of the capital.
But the problem is, as the emperor said, the case Zhang Yanling investigated was too dangerous and did not send many people to protect him. If he was really assassinated, wouldn’t the case be very likely to be in a turmoil?
Obviously the emperor would not worry about whether his brother-in-law was in charge of the army.
Or the emperor believed that nothing could happen to Zhang Yanling brings hundreds of people in the capital.
"This matter is settled." Zhu Youzhang was too lazy to discuss with the minister. He rarely had such a firm moment.
"I thank you for your understanding. I will find out this case as soon as possible and live up to Your Majesty's expectations." Zhang Yanling said.
Zhu Youzhang nodded and said, "You must step up the case. This matter has already begun. The people behind the scenes will know that the small treasury in Jiangnan should be investigated quickly to avoid being transferred. You must also find out the culprits together. Recently, you have not been to the market to avoid putting yourself in danger. I can only remind you so much."
The emperor specifically reminded Zhang Yanling to investigate the case and try not to go out as much as possible. Even if someone protects him, he will not be able to resist being stared at.
"I obey the order." Zhang Yanling agreed.
Zhu Youzhe said, "I still have something to say to you privately, Uncle Jianchang...you...you will go to the Ganqing Palace with Master Xu, and I will explain it to you clearly."
Originally, Zhu Youzhang just wanted to summon Zhang Yanling alone, but perhaps he thought that the civil officials could not be too careless. Taking Xu Pu to the Ganqing Palace was also a way of checking and balancing.
"Then Lin Yuanfu and Xu Jie..." Zhang Yanling reminded.
"Since you have found out that there is another person behind the scenes of this case, then these two people will be released for the time being, but it does not mean that they are innocent. They are quite aware of the situation in Shandong and can also assist you in investigating the case, so that they can go to Wenhua Hall with the Marquis of Shouning and Princess Yongkang to go to Wenhua Hall first. I will explain it to you clearly and you will leave the palace with them."
"Besides, if you need any help, just tell me!"
"Retreat."
Zhu Youzhang was not even in the mood to listen to other things.
This court meeting took a long time and it was almost noon. All the ministers quickly saluted and delivered it.
After Zhu Youzhang left the hall, Zhang Yanling smiled and said to Xu Pu: "Gei Master Xu, let's go to the Ganqing Palace together?"
But it is still OK to ask about progress in private.
Zhang Yanling seemed to understand the holy intention very well and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, there are many vassal areas such as Jianggan and Huguang, and there are many people who have evil intentions. If you can use this to warn them to be a minister, it will be a good deed."
Xu Pu couldn't help frowning after hearing this.
Zhang Yanling in the court was dancing with claws and almost turned the court over, but in private, Zhang Yanling seemed very steady, and the suggestions he made could be said to be a sharp attack.
Zhu Youzhang nodded first, then realized that he had neglected Xu Pu and asked, "Gei Xu, what do you think?"
What else can Xu Pu do?
