"Master, what's the result of the investigation?" Li Kuan couldn't wait to pursue the result of Qian Wu's investigation. Qian Wu hurried back. He didn't eat a bite of the meal, not even water. He finally drank a sip of water, triumphant. Replied: "Don't worry, things are done!"
Then, Qian Wu took out a stack of case files from his bag: "These are the results of the investigation these days, you have to look at it first!"
Li Kuan quickly opened the baggage and looked through the detailed records of each file. The results were surprisingly consistent. Chen Yuliu and Zhang Lingying were all framed without exception, especially the background of the people identified by He Xiuqi and He Jitong. The investigation was clear, and the entire case process was also reviewed.
The reason why Qian Wu came back three days late was also because the review was delayed. Although I don't know what method was used to obtain these confessions and testimonies, Li Kuan knew that this was already very powerful. If it were changed, he might not have done better than Qian Wu, maybe it was far inferior.
"You have a good vision!" Qian Wu praised Li Kuan, and said in a deep voice: "The matter is far more serious than they said, especially in Lucheng County, there is a scar face and the county official covering the sky, deceiving. Next, the fish and meat people, the people complained but suffered helplessly and chose to keep their mouths silent."
"Did the master teach them?" Li Kuan hated such corrupt officials, and Qian Wu shook his head: "I am not an official, so what right do I have to teach them? I also collected all the evidence of their crimes. Gong Shi is handed over to the emperor, and he will take care of it."
"I'm going to enter the palace!" In a blink of an eye, Li Kuan went out, Qian Wu cried and laughed: "I haven't finished speaking, why did he leave!..."
Wu Su said suspiciously: "Master, do you have anything else to explain?"
Qian Wu shook his head feebly. Now that it is too late, he might as well keep his mouth shut. In fact, what Qian Wu wanted to confess was the evidence of this investigation. When the emperor chased him, he pushed everything on him. After thinking about it, perhaps Li Kuan knew how to answer.
"The emperor, your highness is down!"
Li Shimin was reviewing the memorial, and Duke Wu’s voice came. He raised his head and saw that the person must be Li Kuan. After ten days, he suddenly appeared again. This made Li Shimin a little bit distressed, but he couldn’t resist. Outside Zhimen, he nodded and said helplessly: "Let him come in!"
"The minister pays homage to the emperor!" Li Kuan bowed to salute, and Li Shimin said straightforwardly: "Forget it! What can I do if you come today?"
"Do you remember the conditions that the emperor and his ministers said a few days ago?" Li Shimin nodded his head in recollection, and Li Kuan went on to say: "Today the ministers come here to hope that the emperor will keep your promises and honor your promise and let them become naturalized. "
Li Shimin was taken aback: "Did you find the evidence?"
"Found it!" Li Kuan grinned. Now I can feel relieved. He quickly handed the evidence in his hand to Duke Wu and he gave it to Li Shimin. Li Shimin looked at the pair of files in front of him in shock. He didn't have any thoughts. He went to see, took a casual glance, and said suspiciously: "Did you find out these evidences?"
Li Kuan replied without hesitation: "It was not the minister who investigated it. It was the evidence obtained by the minister's master Qian Lao who went to the field to investigate in person. In addition, the master master also found some extremely angry things, that is, the bottom dossier."
Li Shimin followed what Li Kuan said and found a different dossier. Li Kuan went on to say: “The record in this dossier is the local county officials who accidentally found when the master was investigating the cases of these people and the bullies. The crime of concealing the heavens and the sea, deceiving the top and the bottom of the crime."
When Li Shimin heard the words, his eyes were cold, and he quickly flipped through the evidence. The first thing that came into view was that the magistrate of Lucheng County, the county magistrate and the bully Ming repaired the plank road secretly. The profits gained over the years have reached ten thousand taels of gold, and even the transactions between them have witness testimony, and even each other’s accounts.
Suddenly, Li Shimin's eyes became colder, and he looked at Articles 2 and 3... A total of ten articles, involving more than 30 people. As the king of a country, he thought that under the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, there were no corrupt officials. However, there are still such local officials in places beyond reach.
Li Shimin burst into anger, gritted his teeth and roared: "These people deserve to die!"
At the same time, Li Shimin wanted to see what questions still existed in Datang under his governance. He naturally looked through the records of Qian Wu's re-investigation. Even the witness testimony was different from what was said before. The current version It is more accurate than before.
Li Shimin looked closely at each word. After an hour passed, Li Shimin was completely irritated. He did not expect that from the beginning of the founding of Datang to this day, a corruption and fraud case that shocked the Tang had appeared in his own hands. As many as twelve people were wronged in the Dali Temple Prison because of the deceit.
"Check! It must be checked, strictly investigated and dealt with strictly!"
Li Shimin issued the edict angrily, even Li Kuan was a little surprised, Li Shimin's anger he guessed, even if he saw such a case, Li Shimin would be irritated, not to mention that Li Shimin, who advertised himself as Mingjun, was even more angry.
"promise!"
Gonggong Wu bowed and replied. He also knew that this matter was very involved, so he was very serious. Moreover, this matter must be investigated clearly. Perhaps the person involved is not only a place, but may also involve officials from the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple. You can't relax.
Li Kuan knew that Li Shimin was burning with anger, but this was not the purpose of his trip. In response to the anger in Li Shimin's eyes, Li Kuan respectfully said: "The emperor, what did you say before then count?"
"Counting!" Li Shimin gave a sullen look, feeling a little bit emotional: "If he hadn't insisted on believing that those people were wronged, maybe he wouldn't find such a problem in the place."
"If this is the case, please order the emperor!" Li Kuan grinned and rubbed his hands while waiting for Li Shimin's edict. Seeing that he knew such a big thing, Li Shimin could still have a hippy smile, and he didn't know what to say. The handwritten imperial edict with a face.
Li Kuan happily accepted the edict and clearly stated the word amnesty, which means that the crimes of Chen Yuliu, Zhang Lingying and others were all cancelled, and compensation was given in the edict. Not only did they agree to work as errands in the prison of Dali Temple, but also pay money It has doubled, which is more than what Li Kuan said before.
When the goal was achieved, Li Kuan stopped staying, and he bowed his head and retired. As for local corruption, Li Shimin was left with headaches. He was not the emperor and there was no need to hurt his brain cells for this. Li Shimin looked at Li Kuan's happily back and muttered to himself: "Father, how much power do you hide from me?"
It took only ten days to find out the truth about the case of twelve people, and there was still room to investigate the corruption evidence of local officials. This kind of force was Qian Wu personally to solve it. Li Shimin had long guessed that there was a force in the former emperor Li Yuanliu , Even he didn't know the specific situation, and now Qianwu was willing to expose it for Li Kuan, which made Li Shimin faintly worried.
