Konoha Hypocrite Uchiha Tonan

Investigating the case at the Criminal Department went much smoother than Tangning expected. Part of the reason was that the case was not complicated. Another important reason was that both the summons of witnesses and the collection of evidence went very smoothly, with almost no mistakes. , and encountered no obstacles.

It was as if someone had arranged it all and handed it to him every time he needed it.

If there were more good people like Jingshi, the efficiency of the Criminal Department in solving crimes could go up several levels.

The witnesses and material evidence are all there, and it doesn't make much difference whether the prisoner pleads guilty or not. As the head of the Criminal Department, Tang Ning only needs to report the investigation results truthfully, and nothing will happen to him.

Tang Ning only took more than two days to close all the more than a dozen cases.

Although I don't know how Chen Huang will deal with those powerful people, as a minister of the Ministry of punishment, he does not make decisions for the people to redress their grievances, but instead shields the criminals. It is definitely not as simple as a fine.

Tang Ning was a little sad. She thought she could stay in the Criminal Department for the last ten days safely, but in the end, she still couldn't get rid of the label of a broomstick boss.

The above people were dealt with faster than he expected.

Xu Cheng, the Minister of Punishment, took advantage of his position to protect criminals. He was immediately removed from his post as Minister of Punishment, pending investigation.

Han Dong, the doctor of Zuosi, although the extent of the cover-up was lighter than that of Xu Cheng, he was also removed from the position of doctor Zuosi. Although he was not without an official position, his demotion was unavoidable...

Marquis Jingbian was deprived of his title and demoted to a commoner, becoming the second dignitary to be directly deprived of his title this year.

Marquis Yongchuan of Yanping and others failed to teach their children well. Even though they were not deprived of their titles, they were fined a large sum of money to compensate the people who suffered. In addition, the sons of Marquis Yanping and others were also sentenced to military exile and could not survive in this life. Enter Beijing.

The powerful are the powerful after all. Unless they are plotting rebellion or committing some serious crime that exceeds the tolerance limit of the imperial court, they will not lose their lives.

But for these dudes who grew up in fine clothes and fine food, abandoning their comfortable life and going into exile in the army is, to a certain extent, even worse than death.

The losses and impacts suffered by many dignitaries involved in the case are far greater than what is seen on the surface. The family that was originally expected to continue its glory may decline rapidly in recent years after this incident.

King Kang's Mansion.

His Majesty punished the powerful people in the capital. King Kang was not directly affected, but at this moment, the palace of King Kang was filled with gloom and gloom.

These officials and dignitaries all have close ties with King Kang. So far, they have lost a Zuo Si Langzhong and a minister of the Ministry of Justice who just came to seek refuge, not to mention those dignitaries who have been severely weakened...

This is only visible and tangible. Prince Kang's reputation in the court and the hearts of the powerful have suffered a huge blow after this incident.

Over the past year, the advantages established in the struggle with King Duan were lost in one fell swoop.

In the meeting hall, King Kang has been silent for almost half an hour since he received the news from the palace. The people around him have also remained silent, for fear of disturbing King Kang, who fell from the top to the bottom overnight, and would be innocently injured. anger.

"Your Highness, the court is like a battlefield. There are always victories and defeats. You must not get back up after a setback." The first person to break the silence was a middle-aged man.

Someone said: "Yes, Your Highness, we still have some advantages over King Duan. Your Highness cannot be sluggish."

King Kang made a fist with one hand, slammed it on the table, gritted his teeth and said, "I am not willing to give in!"

The fist hit the table, making a dull sound, and everyone's hearts tightened.

Not only King Kang was unwilling to accept it, but they were also unwilling to accept it.

On the road to seizing the throne, he finally left King Duan far away. He was only half a step away from the position of the East Palace, and then watched helplessly as he fell back to the same position as King Duan. How could he be willing to accept it?

Since then, King Kang's reputation in the court has plummeted, and he has also lost the hearts of many powerful people. Although His Majesty did not directly target King Kang, every severe punishment he imposed was almost reducing his wings.

Someone thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty asked the Criminal Department to take charge of this case, but Mr. Tang showed no mercy at all and did not send anyone to inform His Highness..."

The middle-aged man surnamed Xu shook his head and said: "This case was personally ordered by His Majesty and supervised by the Yushitai. Master Tang can only act impartially. If even he covers it, not only will he not be able to protect himself, but His Highness may also be Get stuck, Mr. Tang did the right thing in this matter."

The man argued: "Even if he can't protect him, why can't he be a little merciful? Whether this person is of the same mind as us is still unclear..."

Although King Kang did not speak, his brows frowned slightly.

The middle-aged man surnamed Xu looked at King Kang and sighed inwardly, but said nothing more.

In the palace, Emperor Chen put down the memorial from the Ministry of Punishment, walked to the palace with his hands behind his back, and said: "There is a minister of household affairs and a minister of punishment. I and the courtiers are busy governing the world, but the two of them are busy emptying the court. Wei Jian, tell me, if these two become emperors, will the people still have a good life..."

After Huang Chen finished speaking for a long time, there was no response from the palace. He turned around and saw Wei Jian taking a nap leaning on the pillar, and coughed lightly.

"Ah..." Wei Jian immediately opened his eyes and said, "First he was the Minister of Hubu, and now he is the Minister of Punishment. According to Yi Laonu, Mr. Tang will never be able to take off his hat as a boss..."

"The bastard?" Chen Huang looked out the window and said, "Everyone says that he is the bastard who defeats his boss, but who has ever thought that what he did was all within his scope and could defeat his boss?" They are all corrupt officials. If this government is full of broom stars like him, how much effort can I save?"

Wei Jian bowed slightly and said, "Master Tang, you are indeed different."

"I originally thought that he and Fang Zhe were the same kind of people, but now I realize that he is different from everyone else..." Chen Huang sat down at the table again and said, "I hope that he can continue to be so different."

……

"Your Majesty is so kind and kind, and I am so grateful to you. I have nothing to repay you in this life. I am willing to be a cow or a horse in the next life to repay you for your great kindness!"

In the inn, a mother and daughter faced Tang Ning, knelt down and spoke tremblingly.

Tang Ning hurriedly helped Lian'er and her daughter up and said, "You don't have to do this. This is my duty."

The old woman next to Miss Lian'er said firmly: "No, if it weren't for you, those evil people would still be at large. We, mother and daughter, will remember your kindness for the rest of our lives!"

Tangning was still not very good at dealing with such a situation, so she comforted them a few words and walked out of the inn.

Classes have existed since time immemorial and will never die.The powerful are the powerful, and they have privileges that ordinary people do not have, especially in today's era.

If the Tang family hadn't been behind it, exaggerating the situation and detonating the explosion in the court, these victims would probably not be able to get justice.

The original intention of the Tang family was not to help these people seek justice. They just used this as a tool to attack King Kang.

The internship in the Ministry of Justice is coming to an end soon. Tang Ning doesn't know where his next job will be for the time being. However, after the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Justice, he is probably blacklisted by several other departments. Which ministry will cause harm next time? It depends on the emperor's mood.

When he walked home, he saw Zhao Man sitting in the pavilion in the courtyard.

Tang Ning hadn't seen her much in the past two days. She didn't know what she was busy with in the mansion. When she walked to the pavilion, Zhao Man turned back to look at him and said, "Brother Kang Wang is narrow-minded. Although you are acting under orders, those powerful people You personally tried them all, I'm worried that he will bear a grudge against you."

Tangning didn't take it seriously, but she still nodded and said, "Thank you for reminding me, Princess. I understand."

"Be careful in the future." Zhao Man stood up, took out something from his arms, handed it to him, and said, "This is for you."
