Chapter 1630 Seeing his building collapsed!
Shi Jie entered the palace. Because of the special circumstances, he had to go directly to the palace in the name of re-ordering. Meeting the emperor was not an ordinary thing. The steps were too cumbersome and troublesome, and re-ordering was different. This was to a certain extent an appointment with the emperor.
So Ishijie was naturally taken to the Spring Equinox Hall by the eunuch, which was a small hall in the palace, and was specifically used as a minister to re-order the order.
When I entered the hall, I saw that the emperor and the empress were already waiting here. They sat casually behind the imperial case and were talking. This kind of scene was still very rare. After all, the queen could not appear in the outer court as usual.
Obviously, this is a matter of discussion for the Wang family. In Shi Jie's eyes, there is no room for negotiation for the Wang family to do such an angry and resentful thing. He should be punished and pacified.
You should know that the Wang family has a good reputation in the court now and is reasonable in the upper class, but in the hearts of the people, they have long regarded the Wang family as a villain and are the biggest villain in the Song Dynasty.
As for the reason, it is simple. Other merchants carefully care for their feathers. Only the Wang family did such a ugly thing, and everything else was easy to say, but the exploitation of workers and the sale of slaves was unreasonable.
Zhao Zhen knew that Shi Jie was not his father-in-law's opponent, and entering the palace was not as simple as re-ordering. He was a cunning man, so how could he be so easy to arrest him?
When he learned that the slaves of the Wang family were bought from the South China Sea, he was shocked. So Wang Mengzheng had already prepared a countermeasure and knew that he would attack this matter?
Things became interesting, but in fact, the Wang family's so-called doing has exceeded Zhao Zhen's patience and he uses no means to do anything.
After comforting Wang Yuyan for a moment, Zhao Zhen nodded and said, "I will consider what you said to me. If the Wang family is still stubborn, don't blame me. What you said is the safest way. Let's go back first, I will talk to you later."
After Wang Yuyan left, Zhao Zhen walked down the imperial case and looked at Shi Jie and said, "I don't believe these people, slaves in the South China Sea. I heard that their Chinese is very good. How is it possible? Besides, the Wang family always has a cost to buy slaves from the South China Sea. I have already issued an order. Good people are not allowed to be slaves. Their own farms in the South China Sea are not enough, and they will send people to the Shendu City? Besides, if they are so far away, will they lose money if they are sent?"
Ishi Jie had thought about this question before: "The official family, I think it should be no problem with the financial resources of the Wang family."
"Wrong! A big mistake!"
Zhao Zhen waved his hand slightly and said, "The Wang family is ultimately a merchant. What is their purpose in doing this? It is to make money. They will never do such a transaction of discounted money, nor do they want to do it. Surround the Wang family first, and you send people to the factory and those rescued coolies to check the news. I think there will definitely be a reward."
Shi Jie suddenly realized, yes, merchants are merchants, and their nature is to pursue profits. How can we put the cart before the horse?
Then he was convinced that there must be something wrong with these coolies in the Wang family. Who can still ask clearly? After all, there are thousands of coolies!
"I'm going to investigate immediately!"
Zhao Zhen asked with a smile: "How many days will it take? After all, it is the father-in-law's mansion, so you can't always be surrounded, right?"
"Three days, only three days are needed to figure it out!"
Zhao Zhen nodded and said, "Okay, I will give you three days. You can mention anything you need within three days. I will see the result in three days!"
Ishi Jie's feet are born
Feng Di left, and after he had the confidence in his heart, everything was easy to do. At the beginning, he thought that the official might cover up the Wang family and let the matter go by. Who would have thought it was not at all?
From the perspective of attitude, the official family seemed to deliberately knock down the Wang family. Shi Jie could figure out Zhao Zhen's intentions after thinking about it. As for why he wanted to knock down the Wang family, he was not completely unable to guess.
Now the Song Dynasty royal family is in decline and the generals are in decline. There are relatives outside the country as the emperor. Which one is Cai Boyi and Su Shi, who are not the confidant ministers of the official family?
If the Wang family collapses, it will naturally alert other relatives of the foreign countries to be too presumptuous. It is probably to kill the chicken to warn the monkey?
This is just Shi Jie's own idea. In fact, it is completely different from Zhao Zhen's idea. Zhao Zhen always regards his relatives as obstacles to the future, especially his relatives in the empress's family...
It is not a good thing to be strong in the foreign relatives. Although Zhao Xu is already the crown prince, he will definitely inherit the throne in the future. If the foreign relatives are too strong, it will definitely affect Zhao Xu's judgment.
In addition, the Wang family is a merchant family and plays an important role in the economic activities of the Song Dynasty. Although they have not gained a foothold in the court, their influence cannot be underestimated. Such a family is still the queen's family, which is too eye-catching.
In order to successfully ascend the throne in the future and to avoid being influenced by relatives from outside the country, Zhao Zhen decided to take action first and eliminate this hidden danger early.
Zhao Zhen's technique was the same as that of Emperor Wu of Han who killed Mrs. Gouyi, but his methods were relatively gentle and he did not cause trouble for Wang Yuyan. After all, Zhao Xu had grown up, and even if he succeeded to the throne in the future, he would not need Wang Yuyan's assistance.
He was just worried that the Wang family, who was a relative of the foreign country, would use Zhao Xu and become a cancer of the Song Dynasty's economy.
At least the sweatshop is obvious at the moment. Any means have become a huge capital of the Wang family. Even if it is deliberately stopped, it is useless. However, Zhao Zhen believes that this matter is probably done by Wang Qixiong.
Although Wang Mengzheng must have known it, he would never have thought of this idea. After all, he was from the Sanhuai Wang family, and he should have a good knowledge and knowledge. This time he was cheated by his son again.
Only Zhao Zhen was left in the Spring Equinox Hall, and Sancai stepped forward and said, "Official family, how to deal with the children brought back by the queen?"
This is really a problem. After all, the palace is different from other places. It is not convenient to have children here. It can be done wherever you can go?
"Send it to the Ministry of Eunuchs to take good care of you, and you must not be too slow. When you recover from your health, you will be sent to Peking Prefecture. Let Shi Jie find a way."
"I obey the order, so I will send someone to do it. The officials are so pitiful!"
Zhao Zhen glanced at Sancai and said unfairly: "Although Shi Jie is an investigation of the case this time, your Imperial City Department must cooperate more and make a quick decision. Don't let the Wang family drag it down again."
Sancai nodded: "I obey the order, the people of the Imperial City Department will definitely cooperate! Let's interrogate those coolies!"
Zhao Zhen waved his hand and said, "Don't, those coolies are worried about the Wang family's revenge, or for some other reason, they will definitely not confess them all, but they must also be tried. What I mean is to start from the children, treat them well first, and let them eat well and wear warmly, and then ask about the Wang family factory. The children rarely lie, and they will tell you everything at that time."
Sancai left with his eyes shiny. After he left, Zhao Zhen stood on the steps of the Spring Equinox Hall, looking at the slightly bleak palace in the autumn wind and sang in a low voice: "Look at him to get up the red building, watch him to entertain guests, see his building collapse!"
