"Do you have any evidence?" Qi Xiaohan said seriously.
"Yes, the files submitted by Furui County Magistrate Yao Wenyuan were suppressed by Zheng Nanfei and have been delayed for more than half a month... The emperor can find out by sending someone to the Ministry of Justice to extract the files, and the emperor can also send someone to Furui County to investigate." Lu Guangshu said.
"Mr. Zheng, is this true?" Qi Xiaohan stared at Zheng Nanfei and said.
"This...this..." Zheng Nanfei didn't know how to respond for a moment.
"My dear Yao, I remember that Yao Wenyuan is your son, right?" Qi Xiaohan suddenly asked Yao Dingliang.
Yao Dingliang nodded when asked, "Yes, Your Majesty, what's wrong?"
"You, a Minister of Personnel, why don't you let your son stay in Kyoto and send him to such a faraway Furui County?" Qi Xiaohan felt strange.
Yao Dingliang sighed, "Your Majesty, I was given this position as the Minister of Personnel by Your Majesty. Your Majesty appointed me as the Minister of Personnel so that I could appoint the right people, not to abuse my power for personal gain. Moreover, my son Wenyuan is dedicated to doing practical things for the country and the people. For a new official who has just entered the government, it is reasonable and legal for him to be appointed as the county magistrate of Furui County."
After hearing these words, Qi Xiaohan felt that the Minister of Personnel was quite selfless.
"I believe what Minister Yao said." Qi Xiaohan turned to Zheng Nanfei and asked, "Why did you suppress Yao Wenyuan's file? What is it that you cannot investigate?"
Before Zheng Nanfei could speak, Qi Xiaohan said, "Since you haven't tried the case for so many days, let Lu Guangshu do it for you."
Lu Guangshu quickly thanked Qi Xiaohan, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Lu Guangshu submitted the evidence he had collected to the emperor. After reading it, the emperor flew into a rage, "What a Zheng Nanfei!"
"The Minister of Punishment is replaced by Lu Guangshu. The former Minister of Punishment has made meritorious contributions in the past, and since his merits and demerits offset each other, he will be demoted and allowed to rest at home," said Qi Xiaohan.
Zheng Nanfei fell to the ground. How did the situation become like this?
Lu Guangshu took up the new position, and although it was only an acting position, he worked very hard.
Wang Deli and others were quickly convicted.
Wang Deli was exiled to the northern cold land, all his belongings were taken into the national treasury, and his family members were made slaves.
