Good news: Zhu Lian transmigrated, becoming Emperor Chongzhen of the Great Ming, Zhu Youjian.
Bad news: Today is the tenth day of the third month of Chongzhen's seventeenth year, and Li Z...
"Since Shuntian Prefecture has no clues, for the sake of the stability of the capital and the peace of mind of all officials, it is better to let the Jinyiwei take over the case. There are many capable people in the Jinyiwei, and they will definitely be able to solve the case as soon as possible."
"Please grant your permission, Your Majesty!" Li Banghua pushed the case aside without any expression.
This kind of thing can be pushed away if possible, and we can deal with it later if it really cannot be pushed away.
Solving the case is a merit, and failing to solve the case is a sin. Wang Tingmei is his man, and such an important position as Shuntian Prefecture Governor cannot make mistakes.
Chongzhen said nothing and looked at Zhang Xin and Wang Tingmei.
The two of them were eager to throw this hot potato away: "I second the motion."
"I second this motion."
Chongzhen frowned and snorted heavily: "Useless, all useless. Since you want to pass the case to the Jinyiwei, let them handle it."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." The three of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
"Everyone, please return to your respective offices. Wang Chengen, summon Li Ruolian to the throne."
Li Banghua took the lead in bowing and then left the warm room.
Li Ruolian had been waiting outside for a long time.
He hurried into the palace gate, and after the formalities between the emperor and his subjects, he saw that there was no one around and whispered, "Your Majesty, I have fulfilled my mission."
"Yeah, good job."
Li Ruo Lian excitedly bowed again to express his gratitude, stood up and took a small step forward, and whispered again: "Your Majesty, this time I have received a total of 40,000 taels of silver, and the rest of my family property is worth about 200,000 taels of silver. It is too much money, and I am afraid..."
Li Ruolian didn't expect to earn so much money. If he hadn't prepared a carriage in advance, he would never have been able to move all the money by himself.
Fortunately, there was a strong wind last night, and coupled with the martial law in the capital and his identity as the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, he was able to leave the scene quietly.
"Keep the silver for yourself. You will need it in many places in the future. Just think of it as something I give you in advance. As for the things, keep them too. They will be useful when you track down the murderer."
Chongzhen's generosity was not the case at all. If the truth came out one day, he could easily put the blame on Li Ruolian.
He was the one who killed the person and spent the money. What does it have to do with me, Chongzhen?
Li Ruolian was so moved that she knelt down again to express her gratitude.
Before he could stand up, Chongzhen's order arrived: "You are responsible for the case of my assassination and the murder of Chen Yan and Guang Shiheng. You have one day to solve the case."
Li Ruo Lian was a little confused.
What the emperor meant was: investigate yourself?
It's unheard of!
