Chapter 187 In charge of investigating the case



Because fame and official rank are involved in officialdom, it can also be said that official positions and titles are bought and sold.

The fact that officials from Jiangnan were involved in the organization behind the human trafficking case is something that deserves serious consideration.

Because the investigation had only just begun, the authorities realized the situation was serious and quickly reported it.

The actual situation is probably much more serious. After all, such a large organization must have someone in the capital protecting it, otherwise it wouldn't be able to exist.

Kangxi briefly explained the situation, and Yinzhen remained silent after listening.

"This matter is of great importance and should not be publicized for the time being. You will be in charge!"

After thinking for a moment, Yinzhen realized that he might not be able to take responsibility for this matter. He had a vague suspicion that this matter was probably related to Suo'etu.

In his dream, he saw that Songgotu was later imprisoned and died in prison, and one of the charges against him was something like buying and selling official titles.

The Yongzheng Emperor in my dream wasn't involved in this matter, so I didn't see the inside story.

He didn't really want to get involved.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Kangxi asked, "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

"Your subject has no problem, but your subject feels that this matter is of great importance, and your subject is afraid that you cannot bear the responsibility."

"You discovered this first, so I believe you can take responsibility."

Yinzhen couldn't help but feel a headache coming on. This matter could no longer be covered up. If it really was Suo'etu who did it, it would definitely be traced back to him.

There will definitely be a result to this matter, but Yinzhen doesn't want it to be the one who finds out; he doesn't want things to get too ugly between him and the Crown Prince.

"Father, I think this matter is of great importance. It is impossible for the capital to be without people to handle such a big matter. I am afraid that I am somewhat powerless to do anything about it."

Kangxi didn't believe it, but he had no suitable candidate other than Yinzhen.

In the end, Kangxi directly issued an order that Yinzhen had to investigate, whether he wanted to or not.

It was impossible for Yinzhen to disobey the imperial decree.

Once outside the palace gates, he couldn't help but sigh. What a mess this all is!
