In the book, the princess of the fallen country saved the country by eating melons
Chapter 52 Door-to-Door Delivery
The wife of the Minister of Justice was horrified.
"What? Where did the soldiers come from?"
At this time, Lin He came to her with a group of people and introduced himself.
"I am Lin He, the leader of the Yulin Army, and I am here to search the residence of the Minister of Justice."
The wife of the Minister of Justice was tied up with a confused look on her face. She didn't know what had happened or why her house was suddenly searched. She just guessed that her husband might have been convicted.
She heard a series of sounds in her ears, which made her terrified and a little unbelievable at the same time.
"The residence of the Minister of Justice is really poor, without any money at all. If I hadn't searched and confiscated another house of Lord Kong yesterday, I would have really thought he was an honest official."
An officer was rummaging through boxes and cabinets while complaining to his colleagues.
"That's right. The house in the east of the city yesterday was built with gold and paved with silver."
His colleagues also complained.
"He's so stingy. He's so rich, but he doesn't spend a penny on his wife. Look at her clothes, they're all worn out after being washed."
Another soldier interrupted loudly.
Mrs. Kong listened to these words and shook her head in disbelief.
This is impossible.
He had been penniless for more than twenty years, and his salary was not even enough to support the office of a Minister of Justice.
How could there be corruption?
It would have been fine if she didn't know anything about it, but why did she hide it from him? She lived in such poverty and even had to ask her parents for help.
She asked Lin He who was standing next to her in a trembling voice.
"Master Lin, is what these soldiers said true? Was my husband convicted for corruption?"
Lord Lin looked at her with sympathy, what a poor creature.
Then he said indifferently.
"It's true. I was the one who searched that house. As for the charges, corruption is only one of them. His charges are more serious. You will know when your family is reunited in prison."
Mrs. Mo tried hard to suppress the panic in her heart and leaned weakly on a chair beside her.
Soon her two children were also tied up.
"Mother, what happened? Why did these soldiers tie us up?"
The two men asked fearfully as they looked at their mother who was also tied up.
Mrs. Mo spoke to them with a gentle smile as usual.
"Your father is in trouble, and we have to go and accompany him."
In less than an hour, the Shangshu Mansion was completely searched.
All the people in the mansion were taken to the Ministry of Justice prison. People on the street looked at them, pointing and talking.
Just a quarter of an hour before they arrived at the Ministry of Justice prison.
The Minister of Justice was thrown into prison. He looked around the dark and damp prison.
This feeling is really different.
He used to lock up others, but now it's his turn.
The prison had separate cells for men and women. When Mrs. Kong passed by the cell where the Minister of Justice was,
She looked with complicated eyes at the man who had worn his official uniform when he went out that morning but was now only wearing white clothes.
At this time, she was still thinking about sharing the honor and disgrace with the whole family.
Since she enjoyed the honor and power of his high position, she had to bear the sins with him.
…………
After dealing with the Minister of Justice.
Mo Jinyi looked at the ministers below who had no interest in talking about anything else.
Tsk, let’s just adjourn the court.
These ministers would also submit memorials to him when they had important matters.
Sheng'er woke up in the morning and hasn't had her milk yet, so she must be hungry.
He stood up, picked up Mo Sheng and left.
When the prince saw his father leaving with his younger sister Zhaoyang, he also stood up and followed them.
By the way, he also called several assistant ministers of the Ministry of Justice.
After Minister Kong went in, the Ministry of Justice still had to continue operating, and the position of Minister of Justice had to be filled.
The ministers below were somewhat confused by this thunder today.
They didn't expect that a spy could have risen to the high position of Minister of Justice without them noticing at all.
Over the years, he has gotten to know every official in the Beiyun court very well.
It makes me terrified just thinking about it.
When several assistant ministers from the Ministry of Justice followed the Crown Prince to the Imperial Study, Mo Sheng had already been taken away by the wet nurse to drink milk and rest.
"See Your Majesty"
Several of the ministers were still in shock and didn't know whether His Majesty had called them here because he suspected them.
But it is normal to be suspicious, after all, they have worked with Minister Kong for many years.
However, emperors have always been suspicious and would rather kill someone by mistake than let him go.
They fear for their lives.
"Get up."
Mo Jinyi held the detailed information of several adults in his hands and read it carefully.
Although he doesn't have a Sheng'er brand scanner now, Shadow is still very reliable.
Ever since Sheng'er said he was blind, he would verify everything and no longer rely on his intuition as before.
After Mo Jinyi finished flipping through it, he handed it to the prince who was waiting nearby.
As a prince, you must learn how to identify and employ people as early as possible.
It’s not that he’s afraid that Sheng’er will say he’s blind after seeing the person he chose.
To be said together.
After reading it, the prince wrote a name on the paper and handed it to his father.
"Father, please take a look."
"good."
Mo Jinyi looked at the person chosen by the prince with satisfaction.
"Shen An will be the Minister of Justice from now on. Although he is a little young, he is very talented and capable of solving cases. You should all assist him in the future. In addition, everything in the Ministry of Justice will remain as usual."
The adults were ordered to leave.
"Master Shen, what do you think His Majesty means? Everything is normal, and you are not afraid that Master Kong will be rescued?"
"Master Liu, you don't understand. I heard the same thing as you, but I don't understand it either."
His Majesty specially summoned them to the Imperial Study, selected them to serve as the Minister of Justice, and asked them to assist him well.
Does this mean that these adults can be trusted?
Shen An carefully thought about the meaning of His Majesty's words. He couldn't figure it out just now, but Lord Liu's words gave him a hint.
Everything as usual?
Afraid of being rescued? So that's how it is. Your Majesty is waiting for someone to rescue him.
"I understand, my Lords. His Majesty's intention is to let us relax on the outside and tighten our belts on the inside until the people deliver the goods to us."
Shen An slammed his hands together and spoke to several assistant ministers of the Ministry of War who were standing side by side.
"So that's how it is. Let's go back and make arrangements."
Everyone suddenly realized.
Everyone quickened their pace and went back to make arrangements and wait for someone to come.
"Father, aren't you afraid that Lord Rong won't be able to guess it?"
It was rare for the Crown Prince to joke with his father in a relaxed tone.
Mo Jinyi glanced at him and smiled.
"You wouldn't have chosen him if he wasn't smart."
The prince smiled gently upon hearing this.
[Father, Crown Prince, I'm back. What were you talking about just now?]
The prince and Mo Jinyi looked at each other and smiled at this time.
The prince pretended to be confused and spoke to Mo Jinyi.
“Father, I am still a little unsure about the appointment of Rong An as the Minister of Justice.
Although we have investigated repeatedly, what if this person is hiding very deeply, just like Minister Kong, he has been here since the time of the previous emperor and has been hiding for more than 40 years. "
[No problem, Xiao Ba has already scanned it in the hall. Xiao Ba said that Rong An is a very impartial person, loyal to the emperor and patriotic, and has a rich knowledge base. Using him is a good choice.
Xiao Ba said that this person's biggest shortcoming is that he is too upright and has offended all his relatives, resulting in him being alone now.]
After hearing what Mo Sheng said, Mo Jinyi and the prince breathed a sigh of relief. As long as there was no problem, that was good.
Too many things have happened to powerful officials in the imperial court recently, causing them to become paranoid.
But in order to satisfy their inquiries, Mo Jinyi calmly replied to the prince.
"Yun Shen, as a prince, you must learn to know how to use people and know that not everyone is Minister Kong. Don't be too rigid about it."
[Father, are you ashamed to say that to my brother, the Crown Prince? You are the blind one. Although the people you chose are not the Minister of Justice, most of them are also useless. Only when a blind cat meets a dead mouse, a small number of the people you chose can still be used.]
Imperial sister, stop making up stories.
The prince stole a glance at his father's expression.
Sure enough, his face turned black.
Then he was glared at by his father.
The prince touched his nose awkwardly.
Didn’t you, Father, agree to ask this? Now that it’s framed, you blame me.
Mo Jinyi continued to glare at the prince.
There was no way. He couldn't get angry at his daughter, but he could get angry at the prince.
[Xiao Ba, I suddenly remembered that I haven’t eaten the melon about the Prime Minister yet]
