Chapter 252 Who will win the destiny? (15)

Tian Min is an old minister with a very experienced one. Because he sat upright on the Hu chair of the Minister of Works for many years, he was nicknamed the "boss bench" by his subordinates. In order to reward him for his hard work, Chai Rong also appointed him as the crown prince Taibao. In addition, Tian Min also has a special identity. He is the grandfather of Chai Rong's two sons and a genuine royal relative.

At this time, a basin of sewage came down from the sky, making Tian Min wet all over, but it made him unable to hide.

Tian Min was waiting for the private salt dealer anxiously, but time seemed to stagnate. After a long time, the private salt dealer appeared under the Secretariat. Tian Min looked at the eyes of the three of them and seemed to be squirting out fire.

The three of them were tied up with their hands and stood in front of the prime ministers with expressionless faces. Although they were expressionless faces, they could still see the ferociousness of the three of them from their eyebrows.

When Hou Dayong saw the three of them walking in, his eyebrows and eyes couldn't help but jump. These three people were chess pieces he carefully arranged, but the plan was like a chess game, and there were too many variables.

At this time, although the three of them were wearing clean clothes, dark red marks had appeared on the clothes, and the front of their fingers was blurred.

Fan Zhi was the chief auxiliary minister and had already formed the habit of issuing orders. He told Yang Zheng: "It is better for Yang Shaoyin to examine these private salt dealers."

After Yang Zhengzhi was admitted to the Jinshi, he served as a censor for a period of time. After his former Kaifeng Young Yin Zheng Qi was transferred, he served as Kaifeng Young Yin. Kaifeng Young Yin was an extremely important position. When Chai Rong was in power, he had personally fought several times. Every time he personally fought, he always appointed Kaifeng Gonggong to stay in Tokyo and was fully responsible for the safety of the imperial capital. Shaoyin was an important assistant to the Gonggong, and his identity was naturally extraordinary.

Yang Zhengzhi walked to these three private salt dealers and said coldly: "If you don't want to suffer from flesh and blood, just answer my questions honestly."

The three private salt dealers remained unchanged, but they did not speak out, but stood expressionlessly. Yang Zhengzhi said angrily: "You are qualified here, all of you kneel down and talk." The three private salt dealers knelt down as they said.

Yang Zhengzhi inadvertently glanced at the fingers of the private salt dealer. He thought to himself: Private salt dealers are human beings, and they will also confess when the pain reaches the extreme.

After these private salt dealers were sent to Kaifeng Mansion, they were separated. When the fingers of these private salt dealers were smashed by the yamen with a hammer, they finally chose to beg for mercy from the yamen officials. The three private salt dealers who were separated were basically the same. Yang Zhengzhi believed that these private salt dealers were telling the truth.

A thin private salt dealer said: "I just want to kill people. I have told you everything I know, why are we trying to make us back and forth?"

Yang Zhengzhi ignored him and said to another big salt dealer with a little cringe in his eyes: "What are you doing?"

The big private salt dealer was a little stupid and replied, "I am a farmer."

Yang Zhengzhi said a little angrily: "Are you selling private salt land?"

The big man said dejectedly: "The villain has an 80-year-old mother and a child with breastfeeding under him. Please spare me. This is the first time I sell private salt."

Yang Zhengzhi cursed inwardly: This lie is too clumsy. He said in his mouth: "Do you know Tianjiazhuang?"

"I know, after the boss took us to pick up the goods from Jingzhao Mansion, we went down the river and unloaded the goods to Tianjiazhuang. Our work will be completed."

"How many times have you been to Tianjiazhuang?" Yang Zhengzhi asked suddenly.

The big man didn't react for a moment and replied, "I've been there twice."

Yang Zhengzhi sneered: "Isn't you the first time you sell private salt? Why have you been to Tianjiazhuang twice?"

The big man knew that he had made a mistake and argued: "It was indeed the first time I sold private salt. It was just that I was on a boat, so I went to Tianjiazhuang to explore the way."

"Do you know the people from Tianjiazhuangzi?"

"I met a man named Lao Ba, and this time he opened the door for us."

As Yang Zhengzhi asked, Tian Min's face turned blue and white, and he finally couldn't help but say, "All nonsense, who is the eighth brother?"

The big man didn't know who Tian Min was, so he shouted, "Old Ba is from the backyard of Tianjiazhuang. He opened the ground door for us. There was a dog in the yard. I threw a bone for it. The big dog was gnawing on the bones and didn't bark at all."

The big man said in detail, and it made people unbelievable. All the prime ministers looked at Tian Min to see how he explained this matter clearly.

Tian Min told Yang Zhengzhi: "There are many servants in Tianjiazhuang, so I don't know this servant named Lao Ba. I guess Yang Shaoyin has already taken Lao Ba. Have you ever interrogated him?"

Yang Zhengzhi shook his head and said, "I searched all over Tianjiazhuang, but I didn't find Lao Ba. Kaifeng Mansion has already hung up and is trying his best to capture this person."

When Tian Min heard that the eighth son in the village disappeared, he felt that there was a rope that was about to be put around his neck. The one who dared to use this rope was definitely not an ordinary person. Maybe it was the prime ministers present. He sat back into his seat and looked at these prime ministers in turn with his light.

Fan Zhi shook his palm gently and said, "You guys go out." After all the private salt dealers, Cui Hu, Yang Zhengzhi and others withdrew, Fan asked, "Shangshu Tian, ​​what questions do you have?"

Tian Min shook her head and said, "This matter is done seamlessly, I have nothing to say." Tian Min suddenly raised her voice and said, "Grand royal relatives, the minister of the Ministry of Works, will actually go to sell private salt. Dear parents, don't you think this matter is ridiculous?"

Wei Renpu has a very good personal relationship with Tian Min. He doesn't believe that Tian Min will sell private salt in any case, but who would frame him deliberately? The latter question is the core of the problem, which makes Wei Renpu dare not express his opinion easily. When Tian Min's eyes passed by him, he began to concentrate on studying the patterns on his clothes.

Tian Min cursed in her heart, "This old guy is just a joke at the critical moment."

Hou Dayong thought to himself: These three private salt dealers are brave and resourceful, but they are extremely terrible characters, but unfortunately their lives are not long.

These private salt dealers are all under Wu Qilang. After receiving Hou Dayong's mission, Wu Qilang secretly selected three brave, smart and urgently needed money from his private salt dealers. Wu Qilang sent the heavy Zhou Yuantongbao to the hands of the three, and promised that there would be mysterious people to rescue them in a hurry. The three of them had all kinds of difficulties in their families. At this time, they saw such a large number of Zhou Yuantongbao and knew that someone would save them, so they didn't care about the pain of flesh and blood.

None of these three private salt dealers have been to Lingzhou. They are all private salt dealers from Shandong. They only know the new leader Wu Qilang, and they know nothing about why Wu Qilang framed Tianjiazhuang, and of course they don’t know who the person behind Wu Qilang was. Therefore, even if these three people could not bear the heavy punishment and recruited Wu Qilang, it would have no effect on Hou Dayong. After Wu Qilang arranged these three people, he went north to Lingzhou and remotely controlled his huge private salt group in Lingzhou.

Fan Zhi was the chief prime minister. When he heard that Tian Min was involved in selling private salt, the first reaction was impossible; the second reaction was that someone was trying to make trouble behind his back. Because the whole incident was really seamless: the imperial guards were patrolling routinely, and the blind cat encountered a dead mouse, and caught a few private salt dealers. The imperial guard sent these people to the prefect of Kaifeng. The prefect of Kaifeng did not dare to make a decision. He reported the matter to the Secretary of the Central Secretariat. As a result, several prime ministers sat together and sent people to Tianjiazhuang for searching, and the private salt was found.

Fan Zhi thought in his mind: If there is any breakthrough in this case, it will be three private salt dealers. They are as stupid as a fat sheep, waiting for the imperial guards to catch them, but these three people are not like fat sheep, but the extremely wealthy Tian family is like a fat sheep.

"Who has such superb means, such great courage, and such strong strength to dare to frame the ministers of the dynasty." This question circled in Fan Zhi's heart for a long time and could not be eliminated.

Several prime ministers sat opposite Fan Zhi, like clay sculptures, each of them calmly and calmly. They were completely unrelated to the matter and expressed their expressions high, pushing a tricky thing to the chief prime minister.

Fan Zhi directly named him, of course he was the most shallowest Wang Shu.

Wang Zhu and Tian Min are common friends, without any grudges or grudges, so they said: "This matter is extremely strange. I think we can draw a good player from the Ministry of Justice to investigate the matter specifically and find out the matter. It is also easy to give the court an explanation."

"This is a good idea. You can start the Ministry of Justice to take over this matter." Fan Zhi said in his heart: Even the king of the earth has always been unrestrained and began to avoid the real and the false.

Wang Zhu said an idea, even if it was done. He sat back leisurely and learned from Wei Renpu to study the colors of the official uniform.

It was also possible to hear a needle falling quietly under the Secretariat.

Fan Zhi hopes that Tian Min can take the initiative to find an excuse and not go to court for the time being, so that it can save a lot of trouble, but Tian Min is not proactive. He looks at his toes without saying a word.

Hou Dayong broke the silence and said, "It was exactly what Wang Xiang said. This matter is quite strange. I suggest you don't need to investigate it in depth."

Seeing that it was Hou Dayong's speech, Fan Zhi immediately became twelve points of spirit. Among the ministers of the regent, Fan Zhi was very afraid of Hou Dayong. Hou Dayong had absolute say in the harem, and the harem had the power to veto the proposals under the Secretariat. In other words, Hou Dayong actually had the right to deny the decisions he made. This fact made Fan Zhi very depressed.

Hou Dayong changed the subject and said, "The imperial guards searched for private salt in Tianjiazhuang, which must have disturbed Mr. Tian who had retired and returned home. Why not go home and accompany Mr. Tian for the time being to be shocked by him. When the matter is revealed, it will not be too late to return to the court."

Tian Min's face was ashes, and he vaguely understood who the commander behind him was.

Fan Zhi is the chief prime minister. After years of political struggle, when Hou Dayong said this, his heart was also bright: Tian Min's daughter is Concubine Tian Shu, and Hou Dayong's wife and sister are the empress dowager. The matter of private salt must be related to the dispute in the palace.

Fan Zhi was unwilling to wade into the muddy water. He used the water to grind his skills and handed over the conflict to Tian Min, saying: "Can Shangshu accept Hou's suggestion?"
