Yin Yang Duke.
Although this name was a little unpleasant to hear, he was still a Marquis.
The governor of the capital was also a high official.
Yesterday, he had heard that His Majesty had just made a Yin Yang Marquis.
And just yesterday afternoon, the Ministry of Works had sent a document ordering the capital government to assist in building a judge hall within 15 days.
The so-called construction was actually choosing a good place.
He would rebuild and expand the original residence and build a brand new yamen.
Most importantly, there were rumors in the court and among the people.
This Yin Yang Marquis had a strong background, and even Li Shi Min was very polite to him.
He had never expected that the Yin Yang Marquis would come to him today.
The governor hurriedly pushed the two concubines aside and ran to Lin Xiu with a face full of panic.
He bowed." I am Tang Kai from the Jingzhao Prefecture. Greetings, Yin Yang Marquis. May I know why you have graced us with your presence?"”
Lin Xiu smiled and nodded." Lord Tang, please don't stand on ceremony. I'm here today for nothing but to check a dossier!"”
"Yes, Lord Marquis, please instruct. This lowly official will immediately order someone to find it!”The capital prefecture quickly replied.
At this moment, he let out a long sigh of relief.
He thought to himself, It's good that he's not here to find trouble with me. Just look around.
Lin Xiu sneered,"The file I want is related to the case of Shi Da Qian three years ago!"”
"Ah?"
Upon hearing this, the capital prefecture almost fell to the ground.
His face turned pale as a sheet, and large beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.
"This…"
"What? Could it be that Lord Tang has some difficulties? Or are you not planning to let me look at the dossier on Shi Daqian?”Lin Xiu said.
Back then, this case had already been recorded in the Jingzhao yamen.
However, the governor of the capital city didn't investigate this matter.
He only recorded the case and there was nothing else.
Lin Xiu came over at this time. One was to check the dossier from back then and find some clues from it, and the other was to borrow people from the capital governor.
Looking at the capital governor's expression at this time, Lin Xiu knew that there was something fishy about it.
His expression immediately darkened.
"No, no, no. I wouldn't dare. It's just that the dossier on Shi Daqian's case…is no longer in the capital city!”The capital prefecture hurriedly explained.
"Not in the capital city? Could he be in the Ministry of Justice?" Lin Xiu asked.
"Replying to Lord Marquis, he, he is not in the Ministry of Justice!”
"What exactly happened? Tell me the truth!”
Lin Xiu was also greatly shocked. Back then, the dossier was not in the Capital Zhao Manor, nor was it in the Ministry of Justice? Then where did he go?
In the end, after hearing Tang Kai say it himself, he finally understood what was going on. At the same time, it also made Lin Xiu furious.
In the first year of Tang Kai's appointment, which was last year.
The Ministry of Justice had sent someone over to ask for the case file of Shi Da Qian. The person who had come with the Ministry of Justice was also the local tyrant, Shi Da Qian.
The capital prefecture and the local yamen actually had about the same number.
All of them belonged to the Ministry of Justice.
He did not dare to disobey the Ministry of Justice's order and sent someone to find the file.
In the end, Big Money was very arrogant.
In front of the officials of the Ministry of Justice and Shi Daqian, he burned his file.
Regarding this matter, Tang Kai had never dared to report it.
No matter how big or small the case was, it was the responsibility of the capital governor.
If this was not done well, he might lose his official position and be dismissed.
Back then, the official from the Ministry of Justice had used words to lure him, telling him not to spread this matter and that he could pretend that he did not know anything.
Therefore, Tang Kai had never told anyone.
Similarly, it was also why Lin Xiu asked him for Shi Da Qian's dossier.
They would break out in cold sweat.
He thought that Yin Yang Duke already knew that he had been exposed for returning the dossier to Shi Da Qian.
After Lin Xiu heard this, he sneered in his heart.
A mere rich merchant actually had the ability to reach the heavens?
Even the Ministry of Justice had people?
"Lord Marquis, what should we do now?" Zhao Sheng said righteously.
"Lord Tang, let me ask you, what was the name of the official from the Ministry of Justice who asked you for the dossier?" You can tell me the truth, otherwise, I will punish you for dereliction of duty!”
"What? This…this is Lord Marquis. This person is called Song Yi, the current assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice!”The governor quickly said.
"Assistant Minister Song Yi?"
Lin Xiu silently recited this name and nodded with a cold smile.
Money could really make the world go round.
Shi Daqian could even use a third-grade official in the court?
It was obvious how capable he was.
At this moment, Cheng Chumo rushed in.
"Brother Lin, you, you're leaving too quickly!”Cheng Chumo panted.
Lin Xiu chuckled." Brother Chumo, you came at the right time. I have a small matter here that I need your help with!"”
"It's…It's okay. I told you last night that I…I will definitely help you. But you have to…wait for me to catch my breath first!”Cheng Chumo said.
Lin Xiu nodded and ignored him.
Instead, he turned around and said to the governor,"Lord Tang, I still need your help with something!”
"If Lord Marquis has any instructions, feel free to speak. This lowly official will tell you everything he knows!”
Tang Kai was now completely afraid.
Lin Xiu already knew about his little pigtail.
Even though he was unwilling, he did not dare to say no.
It was said that Lin Xiu was a person with a noble title.
Just the position of general judge was above the various local government offices.
If there was a need, even the Ministry of Justice and the Supreme Court would have to cooperate fully.
Not to mention his small capital prefecture.
"This marquis is going to capture a person. I'm afraid I'll have to borrow the official of the capital prefecture. In addition, tonight at midnight, this marquis will be conducting a trial here, so I'll have to borrow this place for a night!”Lin Xiu said.
"Yes, it's just a small matter. This lowly official will naturally obey!”
Tang Kai's heart trembled. Forget about borrowing a few people, even borrowing a yamen.
As long as it wasn't a life loan, he wished he could give his beloved concubine to Lin Xiu.
Lin Xiu smiled and immediately ordered Cheng Chumo to bring Zhao Sheng and the other three, as well as the bailiffs from the capital government, to go directly to Shi Da Qian's residence to take him away.
There was no need for any paperwork.
He was imprisoned in the capital city's prison.
After night fell, Lin Xiu would hold a court here to interrogate the case.
Cheng Chumo was naturally very excited.
As a well-known silkpants in Chang 'an, he was always on tenterhooks when he brought people to other people's mansions.
Bringing people to the residence to take her now was fair and square.
Naturally, it felt different.
" I'll be hearing the first case in Chang 'an City tonight!" Lin Xiu sneered.”
