"Why...why, I am so loyal, why do you want to kill me?"
With a helpless smile on Mi Fang's face, she looked at the dying man in front of her and said, "No way, you know too much. In troubled times, there is no such thing as eternal loyalty. The reason why there is no betrayal, That's because the chips for betrayal are far from enough. Compared with your loyalty, I believe that the dead will never reveal any secrets."
After hearing this, Qianhu died with regret.
Mi Fang quickly got rid of the people in the inn, set fire to the inn, and disappeared without a trace.
Mi Zhu who was in Pengcheng also heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the news.
It doesn't matter if all the people are shot to death, even if the court receives the news, no one can solve the case without evidence and no one can find themselves.
Jin Yiwei's information is extremely strict, and the killing of a thousand households is by no means a trivial matter. After the incident, the news spread to Cao Anmin's dragon case that night.
Cao Anmin urgently ordered Zhan Zhao, the commander of Jinyiwei, Li Yuanfang and Zhang Zhongjian, the deputy commanders, to come to meet the saint.
After the three arrived, they told Cao Anmin some clues left behind.
Although Mi Fang led people to destroy all the personal and material evidence in Sili area of Bingzhou in advance, but the matter is of great importance, and there will always be one or two fish that slip through the net.
From the mouths of these fish that slipped through the net, they finally found out some hidden secrets.
High officials in the court, the prince's uncle, the concubine's elder brother, and the world's richest businessmen committed crimes. Cao Anmin didn't order such major cases to be investigated, and ordinary people dare not take them lightly.
Cao Anmin's expression was gloomy and cold when he read the information from the previous report, and he tapped his fingers on the table lightly, his brows and eyes were full of anger.
"Your Majesty, the matter is of great importance. I dare not make a decision lightly. I have to report it to Your Majesty. Please make a decision." Zhan Zhao said righteously and bowed to the ground.
Cao Anmin propped his head on his hands and said, "How sure are you about this matter?"
Several people looked at each other, and Li Yuanfang approached and said: "Your Majesty, if there is no proof, we will definitely not be able to play. Mi Zhu not only sold a large amount of military supplies to the Han, but also sent us Jin Yiwei to protect the witness when he returned to Beijing. The killers are massacring and destroying everything. If such a method is not strictly investigated, it will not be enough to anger the common people, and I hope that His Majesty will immediately issue an order to arrest Mi Zhu pending trial."
Cao Anmin glanced at Li Yuanfang and said, "Mizi Zhong has made great contributions to the country, besides, his younger sister is also my wife, if he is not sure, if he is arrested like this, I'm afraid it will make people in the court panic."
Zhang Zhongjian stepped forward.
After Li Jing and Zhang Zhongjian joined forces to pacify northern Xinjiang, Li Jing became the commander-in-chief of the military region, and Zhang Zhongjian also returned to Cao Anmin's side as the deputy commander of Jinyiwei.
"Your Majesty, Mi Zhu was originally Liu Bei's subject. He abandoned Liu Bei and joined His Majesty. Although Liu Bei is dead now, but the Liu family's foundation still exists, how can Your Majesty guarantee that Mi Zhu will not abandon His Majesty again and go to Guanzhong?"
As soon as this remark came out, Zhang Zhao and Li Yuanfang who were nearby were shocked and terrified.
Although they knew about Mi's past, they did not dare to be so presumptuous in front of Cao Anmin.
The air in the hall seemed to freeze into a ball, Cao Anmin froze there, his face became more and more gloomy.
After about a while, Cao Anmin asked, "Then in your opinion, what should I do?"
"Before the news leaks out, seal the Mi Clan within the mansion. If there is no such incident after investigation, Your Majesty can take the head of the minister to comfort the minister. If there is such a matter, please deal with it fairly."
Cao Anmin thought for a moment, and finally followed Zhang Zhongjian's suggestion.Bao Zheng and Di Renjie investigated the matter, and the third division assisted.
Chapter 977 Finding a way out
Mi's closure of the mansion spread throughout Pengcheng within a day.
As a wealthy family in the Qi State, the Mi family has always been favored. In addition, they are originally a Xuzhou family with a stable foundation. They have been in high positions for decades.
Many people even think that this is the exhaustion of birds, the hiding of good bows, and the cooking of rabbits and dogs.
Regarding these, the imperial court did not send any news, and it seemed that everyone had forgotten about the Mi clan.
In the Queen's Palace, Cao Anmin was lying on the step, and behind him Chen Yan was massaging him, but today her constantly looking out eyes have betrayed her heart.
"What is the queen thinking?" Cao Anmin quietly enjoyed the only moment between the two of them.
"Sister Mi knelt outside for a long time."
Cao Anmin sneered and said, "Brother committed a crime, not only did he not know how to think behind closed doors, but he is still threatening me here. Since she is willing to kneel you, let him continue to kneel."
Chen Yan was calm on the surface, but her heart was also full of ups and downs.
After the fall of the Great Wei Dynasty, his elder brother Chen Qun wanted to take advantage of his position to become an official, and Cao Anmin once asked him about it.
But Chen Yan has always opposed her elder brother's entry into office, and even all members of the Chen clan are not allowed to step into the court.
Now it seems that my original choice was indeed right.
Thinking of this, Chen Yan let go, walked in front of Cao Anmin, knelt on the ground and said: "The concubine is the empress, and she assists in the affairs of the Six Palaces. It is the concubine's fault that she is not well disciplined now. I hope your majesty punishment."
Seeing this, Cao Anmin got up and helped Chen Yan up, and sighed helplessly: "Mi Zhu was so generous, but he didn't repay it. Instead, he colluded with some businessmen and sold military supplies to Liu Yu. I was puzzled before, but this The land of Guanzhong is fought every year, starving and dying everywhere, but why can it still gather combat power? Now it seems that there are traitors like Mi Zhu who ruined my tens of thousands of troops and good generals. You tell Mi that the matter has not yet been resolved. Before I find out, I won't do anything to Mi Zhu; but once it is found out, if there is such a thing, I will definitely not let anyone who commits chaos and intends to overthrow my Daqi."
Chen Yan secretly sighed in her heart, it seems that this time Cao Anmin got really angry, even though she was his pillow person, I am afraid there is nothing he can do to help him in this matter.
After Cao Anmin had lunch and left, Chen Yan hurried outside the palace.
At this moment, Mi Huan has knelt here for more than three hours. She, who has never suffered a lot since childhood, seems a little exhausted at this moment.
Seeing Chen Yan coming out, Mi Huan hurriedly stepped forward and asked: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, will Your Majesty ever forgive my elder brother?"
Chen Yan helped Mi Huan up, sighed softly: "I am incompetent, Your Majesty has made up his mind, and must be strictly investigated."
Mi Huan immediately said: "Sister, my dear sister, please help me to beg Your Majesty, Your Majesty believes in your words the most, as long as you say it, you will definitely promise to let my brother go."
Chen Yan smiled awkwardly and said: "Don't you still not understand? If your brother really has a problem, take the initiative to tell His Majesty at this time, maybe there is a possibility of saving his life. Otherwise, no one can help she."
When Mi Huan heard this, she immediately slumped on the ground, all thoughts were lost, and the only thing she could do was to cry.
Inside the Mi Mansion, Mi Zhu was sitting in the study with a stern face, and there was only a big letter of loyalty on the table.From the beginning of the investigation to the present, all the servants in his mansion have been taken away by Jin Yiwei.
Even my own wife and children have no way to see them.
This kind of long time alone made him suffer a lot.
In addition to being alone and lonely, what he is most worried about now is that someone will leak the whole thing.
According to his position and wealth, there is no need to do such a thing.Even though Cao Feng can't be the emperor in the future, at least he is still a vassal king. As his uncle, he must be honored and favored continuously for several generations.
But as rising stars continued to enter the court, they even climbed onto his head.Mi Zhu's heart became more and more unbalanced. He believed that he had contributed to the country. Even if he did not serve as chief assistant, at least he had to enter the central government and the cabinet.
But it is a pity that after so many years, his position has remained unchanged.
At first, he was still in charge of the Bureau of Commerce and Trade; but after the Zhen clan came over, the status of his Mi clan went from bad to worse.
Now, he is just a small servant of the household department, an official with a big sesame seed, and he is completely unranked on the three-acre land in Pengcheng.
He didn't dare to imagine how much the Mi clan would decline if he passed away.
It is precisely because of this that he has the heart to make money.He wants to rely on the only power he has to constantly seek personal gain for himself.At this time, Julan found him and told him about the smuggling of military funds.
