Wu Qijian's residence was not in a remote location. Seeing a large group of officers and soldiers surrounding the residence, passers-by were curious and came to watch. Within a short time, the whole street was filled with people.

Standing outside the door and waiting calmly, in the eyes of outsiders, his actions were purely youthful and reckless, but he knew it in his heart. This time he came to arrest Wu Qijian, which actually killed four birds with one stone.

The eunuchs thought he was young and impulsive.

The second is to publicly avenge private grievances and vent anger. This Wu Qijian had previously criticized Sang and Huai from the court, implying that he lacked parental discipline. This shows that the eunuchs already knew that he was an orphan. Wu Qijian's words touched his sore spot. It doesn't hurt.

Beating this person will not eliminate the hatred in his heart.

The third is to take the opportunity to establish his authority and suppress the Ministry of Punishment who are loyal to the eunuch party. Later, he will not only beat Wu Qijian in public, but also beat the Minister of Punishment who came after hearing the news. The beating will not count, but he will also be arrested. Full.

If Chao Wenwu learns of what happened today, who would dare not be wary of him in the future?

The fourth is to take the opportunity to build a good relationship with the Eunuch Party. If both the Minister of Punishment and the doctor of the Punishment Department are captured, the Eunuch Party will get the news soon. If nothing happens, the Eunuch Party will immediately send someone to intercede, because the Minister of Punishment is the Minister of Punishment.

Chief, I know too many secrets of the eunuchs. If you delay for too long, don't let him find out anything.

If the members of the Eunuch Party go to intercede, they can also take the opportunity to test whether he is willing to sell out the Eunuch Party's favor. If he does not accept the Eunuch Party's account and beats him to death but does not let him go, the Eunuch Party will understand that he is only loyal to the emperor, and he will be unlucky next.

If he releases the person immediately, then the eunuch party will know that he saw Yang Fugong raising his hand to the attendant Gao in the court hall, and he understood it and knew that his imperial censor was recommended by the eunuch party.

Still selling eunuch face.

Before the network is completely closed, you must not fall out with the eunuchs, otherwise the other party will regard them as a serious problem and step up their efforts to eradicate them.

As for how the matter ended in the end, he had expected it, that is, it would be nothing. There will definitely be someone involved in the court tomorrow, but the emperor will definitely not deal with him, and Yang Fugong and others will not do anything to him.

Come on, he will show off his eunuch face today and explain himself.

His position is not clear. Secondly, he is now in great power. If he openly offends him, it will be equivalent to forcing him to side with the emperor.

After a while, all twenty-five members of Wu Qijian's family were arrested. The family members were detained in the yard, and Wu Qijian himself was escorted outside the door.

Although this guy was tied up, he was not honest. Seeing many onlookers on the street, he took the opportunity to shout loudly, saying that Yushitai was handling the case illegally and avenging private revenge.

Without saying a word, Wu Qijian would just yell and he would slap him in the face.

If Wu Qijian shouted again, he would hit him again.

Wu Qijian kept shouting, and he kept beating him.

There is no one who is not afraid of being beaten. Maybe it was because he was hurt by the beating, or maybe he found that he was not afraid of crowds of people watching, so Wu Qijian did not dare to shout anymore.

This is the imperial city of the Tang Dynasty. Under the emperor's feet, it is extremely rare for officials to beat people in public, let alone a third-grade official personally beating other officials. The onlookers were shocked and excited. They had won consecutive victories in previous martial arts competitions to recruit relatives and imperial martial arts competitions.

He has already stolen the limelight, and this time he beat up a court official in the street, adding more color and color to his legendary deeds.

Then boxes of various sizes were carried out and opened in public. They were full of gold, silver, jewelry and bunches of coins. In addition, there were various jade articles and a large number of calligraphy and paintings.

Hatred of the rich is a common problem among most people. Seeing that so much property was found in Wu Qijian's house, everyone on the street applauded and said that Yushitai enforced the law impartially and punished corrupt officials, which was very satisfying.

Although Da Tou did not express his merits, he gave him a look of approval. This guy was very smart, and could also be said to be very cunning. Wu Qijian had indeed been greedy for a lot of gold and silver, but he was not as scary as he looked. Da Tou led people there.

When he was carrying the box, he had done some tricks and put all the gold, silver and jewelry on the top of the box. These things were definitely not underneath. He had just seen a few boxes of silver sent by the Ni family in the morning. If the boxes at the door were all filled with gold.

Silver, two detectives can't lift it at all.

Lest the onlookers would not understand why, he asked the captain on the side loudly, "How much is the annual salary of a doctor in the Ministry of Punishment?"

"My lord, the doctor of the Ministry of Punishment is from the fifth rank, and his annual salary should be around forty taels." The captain replied loudly.

After getting the answer he wanted, he pointed his finger at Wu Qijian and shouted loudly, "Where do all these gold, silver, jewelry, jades, calligraphy and paintings come from? Tell me truthfully."

It was purely a matter of knowing and asking. Wu Qijian knew that he was wrong and could only bow his head and remain silent.

Everyone in the audience heard it, and the purpose was achieved.

At this time, the matter here has been dealt with, and I started to worry that the Minister of Punishment would not rush to stop it after getting the news. I was a little anxious while waiting, until I saw the sedan carriage covered with purple cloth and the brigade of government officials following behind, I felt relieved.

.

At this time, the color of the sedan chair was also regulated. Those who could use the purple sedan chair were at least officials of the third rank or above, and the dozens of officials following behind further indicated that the person who came was the Minister of Punishment himself.

Not only did they see the sedan chair in the distance, but Wu Qijian, who had been kneeling outside the door, also saw it. Seeing the savior coming, he began to struggle to his feet and shouted for help.

Fearing that Wu Qijian would shout bad things, he winked at the boss on the side. The latter understood and slapped Wu Qijian on the back of the head, knocking him unconscious.

The captain who led the army was most worried that the Minister of Punishment would come in person. Seeing that the other party was really coming, he looked around with uneasiness. When he saw a smile on his lips, he became more and more surprised. He was already confused, but now he was full of worry.

Confuse.

The sedan chariot hurriedly arrived, the bearer got off the sedan and raised the curtain, the Minister of Punishment was angry

He was furious and strode forward, "You are an arrogant boy. You are so audacious. As soon as you took office, you took revenge and arrested my officials from the Criminal Department."

"The Yushitai monitors hundreds of officials, and the Ministry of Punishment is also under supervision. Wu Qi, the doctor in the Ministry of Punishment, admonished the officials for corruption and bending the law. The evidence of the crime is conclusive." Zhengse said.

"Okay, you ransacked your home without being convicted. This is a serious crime. I will go to court tomorrow morning..."

Originally, he wanted to say a few words for the occasion, but the other person was too close to him. He shouted angrily, and his spittle flew around, splashing on his face. He was disgusted in his heart, and slapped him backhand before he could finish his words.

The slap was so loud that the Minister of Punishment, who was nearly fifty years old and a civil servant, couldn't bear it. He fainted and fell to the ground.

No one on both sides expected that even the Minister of Punishment would dare to beat him. They were all stunned when the incident happened suddenly.

After a brief period of astonishment, everyone in the Punishment Department came to their senses first and moved forward with their swords unsheathed.

Seeing that the other party showed off their weapons, the detectives at Yushitai also drew their swords towards him.

Both the Yushitai and the Ministry of Punishment are the yamen responsible for prosecuting and jailing. Both parties have the authority to enforce the law and arrest people. Now the swords are at war, and they will start fighting immediately if they are not careful.

Seeing that someone was about to help the Minister of Justice who fell to the ground, he raised his eyebrows and kicked the opponent away, then grabbed the Minister of Justice by his collar and threw him to Yang Kai, and at the same time shouted loudly, "

Wu Qijian has committed corruption and perverted the law, and has confessed that the Minister of Punishment is an accomplice. Anyone who dares to act rashly will be punished with the same crime."

Seeing that the official of the headquarters had been captured by the opponent, everyone in the punishment department panicked and looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

After calming down the people in the Punishment Department, without hesitation, he gave an order and all the arresters took action at the same time, disarming the weapons of the Yamen servants in the Punishment Department.
