Chapter 51 Returning to Beijing
"Take the body down first, and you two adults, please leave first." Li Su said.
"You!" Lin Gong was obviously dissatisfied with his indifferent attitude, but Jiang on the side was stunned.
People have to bow their heads under the eaves. It's not easy for the two of them to still stand here with their black gauze hats on their heads, so don't be tough with the emperor and his ministers.
That's like hitting an egg against a stone.
Lin Gong was taken away by Jiang Ge, and Du Ling also carried away Lin Jingdan's body with the help of several government officials.
After everyone left, Li Su and Si Yunlan walked behind the screen together.
"I will see you, Your Majesty."
"Get back on your feet." Emperor Jianzhang's face didn't look very good.
The murderer actually shot the suspect to death in the lobby of the government office in full view of everyone. This arrogant move was clearly a provocation.
"Your Majesty, based on what I have discovered recently, as well as the death of Lin Jingdan, I am afraid that the Yellow River corruption case is not as simple as it seems. There is a force behind it that is secretly promoting it, or even organizing it."
Li Su frowned and said that the evidence for the Huanghe corruption case had been conclusive even before the trial. He thought it would be simple, but he didn't expect that there was something hidden in it. Looking at the ruthlessness and decisiveness of the people behind the scenes, the road ahead will be difficult.
"I also agree with Master Li. Last night, Cui Shanyuan sent a man in black to assassinate the witness in this case, Cheng Shi. The man in black was very skilled, and he was also related to the spy organization in Yinchuan City. I'm afraid he was very involved."
Si Yunlan also looked ugly. Although Cui Shanyuan was in their hands, based on his hatred towards the imperial court, I knew he would not confess easily.
Lin Jingdan is dead, and although the clues are now broken every time, it is still the same as being broken.
"There are actually spies in Yinchuan City!" Emperor Jianzhang's first reaction was not anger, but surprise.
He wouldn't be so surprised if there were spies in the capital. After all, which country's capital city didn't have spies? But apart from the salt, Yinchuan didn't have much worth visiting for spies.
"Yes, I sent people to surround their home last night. Unfortunately, there was a secret passage in their stronghold, and only three or two people who stayed to delay time were captured.
They are probably all dead soldiers and cannot be of any useful value."
It is not uncommon for spy bases to have secret passages, but the problem is that they acted quickly and did not give them any chance to react, but they still escaped early.
"Dead soldiers!" Emperor Jianzhang slammed the table hard, "Okay, I was in the capital and looked at the brochure handed over to me. I thought that the country was peaceful and the people were safe everywhere during the great expedition. Okay, ok, these dead soldiers have appeared.
Maybe someday, without us realizing it, they will attack the capital!"
Although Emperor Jianzhang's words are a bit alarmist, they are not all nonsense. It is not easy to train dead soldiers, and those who can train dead soldiers are not ordinary people.
What is the purpose of the people behind them setting up such a stall in Yinchuan?
Those who can train dead soldiers must not be short of money, so what else is there?
Of course it’s right!
"Your Majesty, calm down."
"Your Majesty, calm down."
Emperor Jianzhang calmed down his emotions and looked at Li Su, "Li Su, what do you think of this?"
Li Sudao: "I think that since the person behind the scenes killed Lin Jingdan, it means that he still doesn't want to reveal his identity.
Now that the evidence is complete, the Yellow River corruption case of Lin Jingdan, Cui Shanyuan and He Renke can be closed first.
Investigating the affairs of the people behind the scenes can turn from light to dark, so that they can relax their vigilance."
"Si Yunlan, what do you think?" After hearing Li Su's answer, Emperor Jianzhang nodded secretly in his heart. Li Su did have some tricks up his sleeve.
"I think Lord Li's idea is very good.
The evidence of the Huanghe corruption case is conclusive and can be closed first. Since the people behind the scenes have deployed so many spies in Yinchuan, it means that there is something important to them in Yinchuan.
We can start from this aspect.”
Si Yunlan asked himself to be released for training. He felt that it was very beneficial to him to follow Li Su to investigate cases these days.
Emperor Jianzhang rubbed his sore forehead and looked tired, "Then the Yellow River corruption case should be closed as soon as possible.
I have been in Yinchuan for a long time, and I will return to Beijing soon.
The rest will be left to you two."
After saying that, Emperor Jianzhang glanced at Si Yunlan and said, "You have been out for a long enough time. After the investigation is clear, please return to the capital with Li Su."
"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty." Si Yunlan cupped his fists and said.
Emperor Jianzhang stood up and said, "I have gone back, you can go and get busy."
"Farewell to Your Majesty."
"Farewell to Your Majesty."
After watching Emperor Jianzhang leave, Si Yunlan walked to a chair aside and sat down, leaning weakly on the back of the chair, "It's really amazing. I thought everything would come to light today.
Unexpectedly, the prisoner died and a bigger case was involved."
Si Yunlan glanced at Li Su, who was as tall as a pine tree, and said, "Master Li, we are brothers in distress."
Li Su ignored Si Yunlan's complaints, glanced at him lightly, and walked away.
If you have time to complain, you might as well seize the time and start investigating.
"Jingyun, go check on Du Ling." Li Su looked out the door of the lobby with a faint look.
"You are Du Ling? Sir, what's so unusual about him?"
Then Du Ling looks like an ordinary puppet.
Li Su didn't answer his question, but just looked back at him.
Jing Yun kept silent, put away his questions, and said with a serious face, "Yes, I will go now."
…
Si Ning came to Yinchuan just because of the Yellow River corruption case, so she was naturally very concerned about it. Although she did not go there in person, she sent Dong Qing to go there while she waited for the news in a private room of a restaurant not far from the governor's office.
Seeing that the princess was in a particularly good mood today, Lu Lu couldn't help but ask, "Why is the princess so happy today?"
"The Huanghe corruption case has come to an end today, so I'm naturally happy."
After Lin Jingdan's crimes were exposed, the imperial court would definitely send people to repair the Yellow River dam again. With such a big thing as the Yellow River corruption case, the next river official would definitely not dare to enrich his own pockets and would just do the work perfunctorily.
In this way, the Yellow River will never burst its banks like it did in her previous life, and the plan she made after she was reborn would have been half successful.
"We have been in Yinchuan long enough. When we understand the Yellow River corruption case, we will return to the capital."
The matter here has been resolved, and she has to return to the capital to think carefully about how to expose the matter in the North.
"It's good to go back to the capital." Luzhu was very surprised when she heard this.
It's not that she particularly likes the capital, and she's very happy to be able to go shopping. It's just that she really can't get used to the food in Yinchuan.
Chapter completed!
