Accompanied by the servant's shouting, the shouting of others in the distance was sent over by the wind.

The people scattered to various courtyards and ran to inform the other masters of the Wei Mansion, and they were all scared to death.

“…”

“…”

“…”

Why is the Jinyiwei coming?!

Everyone in the hall looked at each other in a flash. The originally light atmosphere was gone, and the atmosphere turned sharply and became a little colder.

"What?!" Lord Li blurted out with a frown, his hand holding the teacup shook, and some tea water overflowed from the mouth of the cup, wetting his cuffs, but he didn't realize it.

Wei Jingze's face turned cold. He had been in a high position for many years. When he was angry, he had a terrifying aura.

The servant who came to report had already stepped into the hall, his face was pale, and he said tremblingly: "Master, Commander Pei personally brought a team of Jinyiwei. Now Jinyiwei has surrounded the outside of the mansion!"

Wei Jingze has experienced three dynasties and has seen many ups and downs, so he quickly calmed down.

He cursed the corner of his mouth and snorted coldly: "Aren't Pei Linye busy getting married to the queen's biological mother?! He came to me for a walk when he had time."

"Hmph, it's really unconventional. In order to win over Gu Jue's confidants, the queen even gave up her biological mother. It's simply a mess of morality!"

A look of contempt flashed through Wei Jingze's eyes.

When the other adults saw that Wei Jingze was calm as usual, they calmed down a little, but they were still a little nervous.

While they were talking, they saw Pei Linye wearing a big red unicorn suit outside, and a team of Jinyiwei in fragrant maoji fish suits walking towards this side with a fierce look. The Jinyiwei were all tall and mighty, with a cold face.

Two other women tried to stop Pei Linye and said in fear and fear: "Commander Pei stayed, please let me report first..."

“Get out of here!”

"Our Jinyiwei dares to stop us from doing things!"

The two Jinyiwei left the old men who were blocking the road with domineering spirit. After a while, Pei Linye and the Jinyiwei walked under the eaves outside the hall.

This spacious hall instantly became crowded by their intrusion.

Pei Linye casually dusted off the false dust on his sleeves, and then stood leisurely with his hands behind his back. He was wearing an official uniform like a sharp sword unsheathed, and his temperament was much sharper than usual.

Pei Linye slightly raised his chin with a cold and hard chin, and his voice was very light: "If the son doesn't teach him, it's the fault of his father. Lord Wei can't even teach his son well. If he doesn't reflect on himself, he has the leisure to talk about his shortcomings and make trouble!"

He said this just as he was like a tongue-in-law.

Obviously, Pei Linye also heard what Wei Jingze said about Shen Zhi just now.

Wei Jingze: "!!!"

Wei Jingze's face was as deep as water and his eyes were gloomy and cold.

Before Wei Jingze could speak, Pei Linye raised his hand and waved his hand and ordered lightly: "Take it down."

Of course, Wei Jingze and the others present heard it. One of them shook his hands and the teacup slid from his hands.

"Bang!"

The teacup fell on the smooth marble floor, smashed into pieces, and the tea leaves and tea soup splashed on someone's soap boots.

Wei Jingze's face became gloomy again, and he slapped the table with one hand and asked Pei Linye: "Why?! Pei Linye, what law did this official violate? You dare to take people at will in the mansion of a dignified second-rank official! You Jinyiwei is too rude and too arrogant!"

The Jinyiwei didn't care what Wei Jingze said at all, and rushed towards the five officials present, obviously trying to take down all five of them.

"Dare you dare?" Wei Jingze suddenly stood up from the chair and shouted sternly.

The Jinyiwei used practical actions to show whether they dared or not.

A Jinyiwei said "offended" without a smile, but his subordinates were not polite at all. They rudely pulled up Lord Li, Lord Liu and others who were originally sitting on the chair, obviously they had regarded these officials as criminals.

Lord Li and others looked pale and were all in disgrace, but Wei Jingze was still arrogant and shouted with his chest: "Pei Linye, we are just sitting together, why do you take people? Everyone present is the imperial officials!"

The other four people quickly agreed:

"That's right, no matter how we say it, it's also a court official!"

"The Jinyiwei is going to take people, so he should have a name!"

"We are just here to visit Lord Wei, wouldn't it be a sin, right?"

“…”

These people talked in a verbal way, and the more they talked, the more they became more and more excited.

Pei Linye was too lazy to talk to these people, so he raised his hand and flicked his fingers, making it straightforward.

A little bearded Jinyiwei next to him understood Pei Linye's meaning, and immediately took out a piece of silk paper folded into a long strip from his belt. After unfolding it, he started to recite to the silk paper:

"Just just now, Lord Wei said: Gu Jue is not unable to bear it, he is killing a chicken to warn the monkey!"

“…”

"After that Mr. Liu said: Lord Wei, don't forget that the queen's family is also involved. Just try to meet the second son before the party starts and make good things in advance..."

“…”

"Mr. Wei said again: The most dangerous time is also the safest time. Gu Jue will definitely not think that we will dare to take action when the retake exam is re-examination next month."

“…”

Every word and sentence that the little bearded Jinyiwei read was all the words Wei Jingze and others just said, and they were just right.

They were talking happily in private just now, but at this moment, when they heard these words from others, Wei Jingze and others were all astonished as paper.

No one expected that things would be like this!

Therefore, all the words they said during the discussion were heard by the Jinyiwei and recorded. Once these words were taken to the court and said, they not only committed fraud, but also committed the crime of great disrespect!

Wei Jingze fell down anxiously, feeling like he was trapped in a cold quagmire. These days, Pei Linye has never accompanied the new emperor to attend the morning court. He thought Pei Linye was busy with the marriage and had no time to take care of him. It seemed that this was just a strategy for the new emperor and Pei Linye to divert their attention.

Even if he was panicked, Wei Jingze still showed his timidity on his face and continued to shout: "Slander! This is your Jinyiwei slandering us!"

Now that things have come to this point, all Wei Jingze can do is never plead guilty. Even if he goes to court, he will not plead guilty.

Pei Linye's eyes were bright and sharp, like a sharp sword, and he stabbed Wei Jingze. A confident and calm smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said lightly: "Wei Jingze, are you confident that you have no evidence? Then I will look for evidence to see if this evidence is really destroyed so perfectly!"

Even if Wei Jingze, Lord Li and others were confident that the evidence of the fraud case had been destroyed, it was because of Pei Linye's words.

Pei Linye waved his arm and simply ordered: "Take them all to the imperial prison!"

The five officials, including Wei Jingze, were just scholars with no power to tie a chicken. Under these extraordinary Jinyiwei, they had no power to resist at all and could only be taken out of the main hall, one by one, like defeated roosters, and staggered.

They all heard Pei Linye's calm and self-sustaining voice coming from behind:

"Give me instructions and search for it! Dig three feet into the ground!!"

The Jinyiwei who stayed in the hall accepted the order in unison, and they immediately began to search the Wei Mansion. The little-mouthed Jinyiwei left hurriedly and rushed to the gate to ask more people to search the mansion.

The people under the Wei family inside and outside the hall were at a loss. No one in the capital knew the reputation of the Jinyiwei. Even their master was taken away. How could they dare to stop the Jinyiwei?

The hearts of the servants are all cold. The money falls down and scatters. Once the master is punished, even the servants will be sold, and the future is worrying!

An uneasy atmosphere was like ripples on the lake rippling with the wind.

Today, it was not only the Wei Mansion that was investigated, but also the people from the Jinyiwei also arrived at the residences of Lord Li and Lord Liu, the four residences were all sealed, investigated, and circulated.

The Jinyiwei's move was like several huge rocks falling into the originally calm lake, causing a thousand waves for a moment, and the entire capital was in an uproar.

Since the reign of the late emperor, the Jinyiwei has never seen such a big move in the capital, especially Wei Jingze, Lord Li, Lord Liu, etc. who were taken to the imperial prison, were all important officials in the court, including the Minister of the Court, the Minister of the Court, and the Censor... Each of them was a well-known figure and the minister of the court.

The other cabinet masters in the cabinet naturally also received the news and went to Zhang Shoufu's mansion that day. Xu Qian, the Minister of Revenue, asked whether they would go to the palace overnight to ask for a new emperor, but were suppressed by Zhang Shoufu.

Gu Jue has only been a few months since he ascended the throne, but several cabinet masters have had the most contact with him. From his usual style, he has already gained a good understanding of the new king's temperament.

Gu Jue's methods of dealing with things can be said to be decisive, but he is definitely not a tyrant. He will not be a master of Wuming.

There must be a reason why he made the Jinyiwei so mobilize so many wars today.

After Zhang Shoufu said this, the other cabinet masters also agreed and decided to wait and see the changes first and return to their respective prefectures.

This night was a sleepless night for many court officials, especially those who had ghosts in their hearts woke up several times in one night, fearing that their door would be knocked by the Jinyiwei.

During the morning court the next day, the atmosphere in the Golden Palace was a bit strange. The left deputy commander, in the subtle eyes of the ministers, mentioned the incident of the Jinyiwei searching the various prefectures yesterday, and expressed his disagreement with this:

"Emperor, Daqi has laws and regulations to govern the country according to law. Even if the ministers are guilty, they should be thoroughly investigated by Jingzhao Prefecture or Dali Temple according to procedures. The emperor should not have caused the Jinyiwei to take people for no reason, causing panic!"

The court officials had different expressions, and they all knew that the Zuo Deputy Chief Inspector had never had any contact with Wei Jingze. This old man has always been an old man, honest and honest official, and he would say whatever he had, and he would have been doing for decades.

Several officials of Wei Jingze's party exchanged glances secretly with each other, thinking that this was a few times.

So, three or four civil officials took the lead one after another, and all agreed: "I will discuss it!"

"Mr. Wei, Lord Li and others have been officials for many years, and even if they have no credit, they still have to work hard. Now the Jinyiwei has no evidence and is so verified that they can search if they say they can be found. It's really heartbreaking!"

A few of them said one by one, wanting the new emperor to release Wei Jingze and others.

All the ministers were observing Gu Jue's reaction.

Gu Jue, who was sitting on the dragon throne, looked calm and didn't even move his eyebrows. He didn't say much to the people below and called Pei Linye first.

When I went to court today, Pei Linye wore the big red unicorn suit just like yesterday. The already bright robe became more and more eye-catching against the magnificent palace.

Pei Linye bowed to Gu Jue with fists, and then began to report the results of the search in Wei's mansion yesterday, stating Wei Jingze's major crimes:
To be continued...
