Daily life of Heshen's pet wife

"There is really something that needs you to do."

He Shen had already made up his mind, but it was time to eat, and Brother Run was still watching them.

He Shen is not afraid of what the child will hear, but he does not want the child to be precocious when he hears these words at a young age.He Shen reached out and touched Brother Run's head. The kid's dark eyes were particularly bright. His big eyes were the same as Feng Zhixi's, clear and translucent, as if they were flowing with clear water.

Brother Run loves to be hugged by Feng Zhixi when he is full. Feng Zhixi hugs Brother Run. She and He Shen look at each other, knowing that they have business to talk about, and Brother Run needs her to accompany him, so He Shen takes He Shen with him. Lin and Fu Changan went to the study to discuss in detail.

He Shen took He Lin and Fu Chang'an to the study room, this time he didn't hide anything, and told them everything he had thought.

Qianlong ordered him to preside over the case, but only called him to explain his desire to protect Li Shiyao. He felt that after He Shen understood it, he had no other instructions.

In fact, it is not difficult to get rid of Li Shiyao's crime.In addition to his presiding judge, he also selected a few assistant ministers or pen posts to assist him in the trial, as long as he selected some obedient ones who were not very capable of handling affairs.

But Heshen never used this. Over the years, whenever he tried a case, Heshen used his subordinates who were capable and efficient.It is absolutely impossible for him to smash his own brand and principles in order to keep Li Shiyao.

He also never thought about obeying Qianlong's imperial decree.But it would be inappropriate to resist the decree openly, so if you want to seize this opportunity, you still have to do things secretly.

The first step in trying a case is to investigate and interrogate. This time when he took over the case, Qianlong did not specify how long it would take to complete it.He Shen also deliberately procrastinated, and he was quite serious in handling the same errands. People outside seemed to know that He Shen was notoriously serious. People outside didn't know Qianlong's instructions, and He Shen never Since the case was handled impartially, they would only think that He Shen wanted to handle Li Shiyao's case properly.

Those courtiers who were originally dissatisfied with Li Shiyao were naturally happy to see this, but a considerable number of other courtiers were not so happy.

When they learned that Qianlong ordered Heshen to preside over Li Shiyao's case, those courtiers who had the same behavior as Li Shiyao but were not necessarily Li Shiyao's party were very panicked.They were all thinking about it, and even involuntarily substituted the matter on themselves, thinking that if they were interrogated so severely by He Shen, it would be hard for them to survive.

Li Shiyao is a local high official, he accepts bribes, so he will naturally donate to Beijing, and there are quite a few high officials in Beijing who have contacts with him.The matter here is very involved, and naturally everything is inextricably linked with Qinggui Mingliang.

The longer the case drags on, and the less information can be obtained, the more panicked the people connected with the case will naturally be.Because Qianlong was still reluctant to publicly let the officials know that he wanted to protect Li Shiyao, so only the two of them, the monarch and the ministers, knew about the matter of asking Heshen for admonition, and the outsiders did not know.

I was afraid that if Li Shiyao continued the trial like this, others would be implicated, especially Qinggui and Mingliang.Although the government and the public are aware of what they did, but because of Qianlong's acquiescence and connivance, and because the contributions were all directly given to Qianlong, no one reported their affairs.

But if Li Shiyao's affairs get bigger and bigger, maybe they can't stay out of it anymore.

Mingliang and Qinggui came up with these methods just to please Qianlong. Now that Qianlong is not on tour, in order to continue to gain Qianlong's reliance and favor, and to continue to make money, the methods they came up with are actually the same as those of Heshen in their previous life. The money for the crime is the same.

Some officials who committed crimes, if they do not want to take responsibility for their crimes and do not want to be dismissed, they will give out money to eliminate the disaster.They had played this trick during Qianlong's northern tour, in order to prevent Qianlong from using the money in the internal treasury of the user and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but there was a fee.

It's just that they didn't use the name "criminal silver", but the matter is still the same.

Li Shiyao often got involved here, they were really afraid of pulling out the radish and bringing out the mud, so when they became more and more uncertain in their hearts, they panicked and couldn't help but went to Qianlong's place.

Of course, it is impossible for Qinggui and Mingliang to intercede with Li Shiyao directly in front of Qianlong. They are still not sure what Qianlong's psychology is. He got a big temper and asked He Shen to preside over the case.

In front of Qianlong, they pleaded for Li Shiyao in a roundabout way, saying that Li Shiyao had made a lot of contributions to the Qing Dynasty, talking about Li Shiyao's military achievements and his hard work.Qianlong was originally soft-hearted, but when they said this, he naturally became more soft-hearted.

Seeing that Qianlong's attitude was loose, Mingliang and Qinggui immediately launched a second round of offensive, suggesting that Li Shiyao should take out the money to make atonement, and said that if he handed over the money, he would not have to be punished so severely.

They put eye drops on He Shen in front of Qianlong, saying that He Shen has always been strict in handling cases and would definitely deal with Li Shiyao severely. Li Shiyao is old and probably can't bear it.

Originally thought that if he said this, Qianlong would change his words, but Qianlong did not change his words. Instead, he reassured them that He Shen would not mess around this time, and Li Shiyao would not be tortured.

Qianlong didn't want to directly expose his thoughts, he believed that He Shen understood his instructions, so Qianlong didn't confess to Mingliang and Qinggui.

Without the truth, Qinggui and Mingliang were even more hopeless. They were really worried, and they didn't dare to put all their bargaining chips with Qianlong. When they went back, a group of people made up their minds and started to make their own decisions, hoping to rely on the help of the party. Power puts Heshen on Qianlong's side, hoping to get Li Shiyao out properly, at least he will be fine after paying the money.

They connected with each other here and created public opinion outside, saying that Li Shiyao could not be severely punished, which would chill the heart of the veteran.

From time to time, people would tell Qianlong about Li Shiyao's current situation to win Qianlong's sympathy.

They do these things in secret, but when they are done, all the people in the court are watching, which naturally arouses the dissatisfaction of another part of the people. The courtiers who advocate severely punishing Li Shiyao can't stand it anymore. .

He Shen has been secretly paying attention to and controlling the development of the situation. He has been strictly interrogating Li Shiyao. The people he selected are all subordinates who handle the case as impartially and rigorously as him. In the rest of this month, he has investigated Li Shiyao's affairs clearly. Clear.

But in order to match the situation and effect he created, the people under him, including He Shen himself, did not disclose even a little bit of details of the case to the outside world.But in order for Qinggui and Mingliang to get on the line with Qianlong smoothly, he turned a blind eye to the people sent by Qinggui and Mingliang to spy on Li Shiyao's current situation and pretended not to notice, so that the scene could continue.

There was no movement on his side, which made the courtiers think that he hadn't come out with the result of the trial, or even a little bit of inside information, because of the pressure from the outside world.The courtiers even saw that Qing Guimingliang and those people were secretly running around for Li Shiyao's affairs, but Qianlong didn't respond at all, and even some people asked Qianlong, but they didn't get a reprimand.

Such a situation aroused public outrage. With Haining complaining before, there will naturally be others following.

Just when the two factions in the DPRK and China were quarreling, He Shen announced the results of his trial at the Great Court Conference.

——There was no news from He Shen for almost a month, let alone the courtiers were in a hurry, Qianlong was also in a hurry.

But Qianlong couldn't urge him, and he didn't want to urge him, as long as He Shen could do what he wanted.

It's just that at the court meeting, people on both sides quarreled again, and their yin and yang spoke in a particularly unpleasant way. Qianlong was really a little irritable, so he asked how the trial of Heshen's case was going.

Unexpectedly, He Shen, who said at the regular meeting of the Military Aircraft Department of the Hall of Mental Cultivation yesterday that the case was still under trial, directly said at the Dachao Conference that the case was over.Then he took out the written scriptures from his sleeve and read them, and read out the Li Shiyao case he investigated clearly and plainly in front of hundreds of civil and military people in the Manchu Dynasty.

Qianlong was stunned at first, thinking that the trial was not over yet?Why is it over today, and you still read it out?

Qianlong didn't want to make things big, so he didn't even think about announcing the case at the court meeting.Even at the regular meeting of the Military Aircraft Department, Qianlong didn't think about it.He just wanted He Shen to investigate the case quietly, and then find a way to protect Li Shiyao, and then he would make an order and it would be over.

Unexpectedly, He Shen not only announced it, but also announced it at the Great Court Meeting.

Seeing He Shen diligently and conscientiously reading the scriptures, Qianlong felt that he was a little out of breath. When He Shen finished reading the scriptures, Qianlong also saw He Shen salute him, and said: "Long Live Lord asked the servants yesterday. , The servant thought that there would be no further delay, so he led the people to finish the trial overnight. He wrote the notes overnight and wanted to submit it to the Lord Long Live later. But since the Lord Long Live asked, the servant dared to say it directly. "

Qianlong just wanted to change the subject, but he couldn't stand the quarrel between the two sides, and he didn't want to care about it, who knew that he just changed the big one.

Looking at He Shen's even apologetic expression, Qianlong didn't know if he did it on purpose.

——Of course He Shen did it on purpose.It's all in his calculations.

He neither wanted to act according to Qianlong's instructions, nor could he act according to his own will to try Li Shiyao. The only way he could do it was to announce the clearly investigated case in front of all the ministers inadvertently, and let everyone judge the merits and demerits.

In this way, Qianlong could not force him to be alone, even if he was partial, it was also a clear partiality in front of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

If Qianlong wanted to be eccentric, he could just be eccentric, and he and Shen should not be the ones to take the blame.
