Chapter 173 Grasshopper on a Rope(2/2)
As the chief envoy, Jin Wu is theoretically the top leader. At this time, his face was filled with sadness: "What should I do? What can I do? Brother Huang, this Zhang Tao is your subordinate."
"Don't blame the matter on me. Although the Guangzhou Prefecture's guard station is under the command of the capital, it is essentially under the control of the Guangzhou Prefecture."
Liang Fu saw that after just a few words, the blame fell on himself. Was he trying to take the blame on himself, the person with the smallest official position?
"My lords, now is not the time to shirk. His Highness Prince Zhujiang ordered me and the three lords to conduct a joint trial of Zhang Tai. This is your Highness's opportunity to give us an opportunity to redeem ourselves."
Jin Wu turned to Fang Shi: "Brother Fang, what do you think of this matter?"
"What do I think? Your Highness wants a trial, so let's go to trial." Fang Shi didn't put forward any constructive suggestions. This matter had the least to do with him, and he felt that he had surrendered to Zhu Zhanyi. Such a mess
Let’s put things aside as much as possible.
"Brother Fang, you are the most familiar with the law. What is the purpose of Your Highness ordering us to examine the matter? Please analyze it."
"Since it is a three-judge trial, it is natural to convict him."
Jin Wu saw that Fang Shi was not helping or anxious at all, so he could only say with a sullen face: "Brother Fang, we are grasshoppers on the same rope now, although it seems that this matter has something to do with you, the criminal prosecutor."
It’s not big, but with the Beijing Inspectorate coming soon, it’s inevitable that the ginseng book inspector will neglect his duties.”
"Brother Jin, are you threatening me?"
"How dare I, Brother Fang? It's just that we are on the same boat now. You are responsible for the law, and you have an old mentor in the cabinet. You can always speak in front of His Highness, and help you to ask His Highness what he means. Do you want to give it to him?"
What kind of crime can satisfy His Highness?"
Only then did Fang Shi provide some meaningful words: "Zhang Tai's conviction is a small one, just follow the clues. The backer behind His Highness's desire to arrest him is a big one. Your Highness has given us the power to interrogate, in order to let us interrogate the person and find out who he is."
Until he is satisfied, His Highness will catch Zhang Zixing, Zhang Tai and the others in one fell swoop."
After Fang Shi finished speaking, several people couldn't help but look at Huang Huihong.
"What are you doing? What do you think I'm doing? I have nothing to do with them." Huang Huihong shied away.
"Brother Huang, as far as I know, Zhang Tao should have led several troops into the city in the past few years. Although the number was not as large as this time, there were still hundreds of troops. I still got your permission." Jin Wu talked about the past.
matter.
Huang Huihong panicked instantly: "Don't talk nonsense. He had called for troops before. The reason was that there was a small riot force in the city, and Magistrate Liang knew it."
Liang Fu's face turned ugly, but he nodded: "Before, there was a melee between gangs in the city, and it was impossible without bringing in troops. But the next time, he had already arrived with troops before I even asked for help."
Attention returned to Huang Huihong again, and Huang Huihong coughed: "My procedures are all complete and can withstand inspection." Having said that, I felt very guilty. There were indeed one or two backfills.
Because Zhang Tao was usually filial and respectful, he just turned a blind eye.
Jin Wu sighed: "Then let's investigate. Until His Highness is satisfied, the commander will have people arrest all the people from the Xinchaoan Gang. They will interrogate one by one and question one by one to see if they can investigate.
What's going on?"
While several people were talking, a guard came over.
"Don't you see we're talking?"
"Master Fang, Mr. Nan is here."
"Mr. Nan?" Fang Shi was stunned, who invited him out.
While he was talking, an old man with gray hair and a gray beard walked over. He was wearing rough cloth and carrying a cane from a branch he picked up from somewhere. His face was in good spirits, and his eyes were bright and full of energy.
Next to him was a young man wearing navy blue coarse cloth. He was fair and really good-looking.
"Caomin, Nansheng Huai, I have seen the chief envoys, the envoys who punished and punished, the envoys and the prefects."
Fang Shi hurriedly supported the old man who was saluting: "Uncle, why are you so polite? We, the younger generation, cannot bear your courtesy."
"Teacher, why are you here?" Jin Wu also came to help Nan Shenghuai sit down first.
He sat first in front of the Third Secretary, and his cloth clothes were worth a lot of money.
