Chapter 1703: Great treachery looks like loyalty, with a top-tier appearance

Wang family internal strife, killing each other; this is indeed a new line of investigation.

Sun Daoning is experienced in handling cases and couldn't easily believe his words.

"Prosperity and loss are shared. How stupid would one have to be to buy a killer? This statement of yours is not very possible. Zhang Yushi Wang only needs to endure for a few more years, and he has a great chance of entering the Government Affairs Hall. He is the backbone of the Wang family, the main pillar of the Wang family."

No one in the family has the guts to dare buy a killer to murder Zhang Yushi Wang.

Therefore, this line of investigation of internal strife and killing each other can only be a line of thought, and cannot be put into practice. Logically, it doesn't hold up.

Chen Guanlou didn't care, sneering, "Old Sun, you can be considered an old man of criminal justice; I ask you, how many cases pay attention to logic? How many cases have absolutely no logic, purely impulsive?"

"This case of Zhang Yushi Wang is clearly premeditated. Don't try to influence my line of thought. Wait, you are confusing the discourse, what exactly do you want to do? Could it be that the criminal Qu Yuan really has a relationship with you?"

Chen Guanlou thought to himself, "Bad."

Old Sun, although old, still has a sharp brain.

Sure enough, the more you say, the more you make mistakes.

"Look, you suspect me again, does your conscience not hurt? I am a person who doesn't get up early without profit; I help the criminal Qu Yuan, may I ask what benefit I can get? Old Sun, come, you tell me properly, what benefit can I get from a half-dead criminal?"

Sun Daoning was speechless for a time.

Benefit?

It seems there is no benefit for now.

When the Six Shanmen arrested Qu Yuan, he had nothing on him, only a few pieces of broken silver. Even his night clothes were patched. A dignified assassin, wearing patched clothes; how poor he must be.

How could such a person have money to bribe the profit-seeking Chen Guanlou.

Impossible!

"I will wrongly blame you for now. But why do you want to confuse the discourse and deliberately guide it toward internal strife in the Wang family? This case can be seen clearly at a glance; it must be an officialdom dispute."

"I am doing it for your sake." Chen Guanlou shouted in grievance.

Reason is on the side of the loud voice; this saying is occasionally the truth.

If the voice isn't loud, it's not enough to deter people's hearts.

"That criminal Qu Yuan will definitely die; he already has a will to die and cannot be saved. Even if Medical Official Mu is here, it is of no avail. How much certainty do you have in interrogating a comatose criminal? If you don't get a confession, what will you use to answer to the Emperor? You can't just say, the suspect died, and the case can't be investigated. If you say that, guess how the Emperor will deal with you, and how disappointed he will be in you. Have you thought about that consequence? Do you want to retire early and give up your position to the virtuous?"

Chen Guanlou asked consecutively, asking Sun Daoning until he was stunned.

He is obsessed with handling cases, and his political sense is really not as keen as others. He thinks about doing his job as hard as he can, hoping the Emperor can see his hard work. Plus, with Xie Changling guaranteeing him, it should be foolproof.

Yet he often ignores his own situation.

He is old!

He has been in the position of Minister of Justice for more than ten years and is already an old man in the court.

Emperor Yuanding is in his prime and has long since found these old guys unpleasant. And he is the weakest one among the nine members of the Government Affairs Hall. A typical soft persimmon.

These two years, Emperor Yuanding has been fighting fiercely with Xie Changling. More and more students from the Jixia Academy are entering the court, which is a clear signal.

Seizing power.

Emperor Yuanding is no longer satisfied that the Government Affairs Hall only has Zhao Jichong; he wants more say and more seats.

The nine-person group is fixed.

Who goes up and who goes down, there is a lot of article here.

Zhao Jichong must stay, so one of the remaining eight must be driven down. The four assisting ministers cannot be moved, Chen Guanfu cannot be moved. Among the remaining three, he is the weakest...

Instantly, Sun Daoning felt the wind and rain coming, and the pressure was immense.

A seemingly ordinary case of killing an official, I am afraid that if one is not careful, it will evolve into a court struggle, and half the world will be involved.

"Do you really think the Emperor wants to replace me?"

He is now unable to care about the case and only wants to plan for himself.

The case can be handled at any time; as long as he is the Minister of Justice for one day, it can be restarted at any time.

"Why not? The Emperor has been Emperor for four years and has endured for so many years; no matter what, he has to move. Zhao Jichong is the first step; once the timing is right, it's the second step. Timing can not only be created, but also waited for, or even fallen from the sky. Now, Zhang Yushi Wang was assassinated; for the Emperor, this is a godsend. Heaven gives it, guess if the Emperor takes it?"

Chen Guanlou is really not alarmist.

He also initially realized that this case might be used by the Emperor to change the court landscape.

Assistant Zhang Yushi-in-Chief, how precious. Assassinated in the street, the case wasn't handled well; a ready-made reason.

Even if the case was handled well, the Emperor could still use the opportunity to make trouble.

At the feet of the Son of Heaven, when did public security become so chaotic that officials were assassinated in the street.

Should the Government Affairs Hall be responsible? Should Xie Changling be responsible?

Launching a wave of court struggle, taking the opportunity to intervene in the Government Affairs Hall, replacing personnel; reasonable, right!

The most critical thing is that the number of members of the pro-Emperor party is visibly increasing.

These people may not have much energy, but they can make ninety percent of the sound. Because they occupy orthodoxy.

Ruler and subject, that is orthodoxy!

Supporting the Emperor is orthodoxy!

Suppressing imperial power by prime ministerial power is heresy!

Such things, Xie Changling and the others don't dare to talk back directly, and can only refute from other aspects. Refute from military affairs, state affairs, world affairs, and people's livelihood and welfare.

The Emperor's ability is insufficient, he cannot leave the assisting ministers, and still needs to be tempered.

However, it cannot be tempered for one year, three years, five years, ten years... The vast number of court officials will not allow it.

As long as the timing falls from the sky, Emperor Yuanding will definitely not miss the great opportunity and will definitely use the opportunity to make trouble.

No matter whether this case can be investigated clearly, Sun Daoning is in danger!

Sun Daoning frowned tightly, and the wrinkles were deep enough to pinch a mosquito to death. A face, gullies crisscrossing, he is really old. Time is full of wind and frost on his face, serious, solemn, inverted triangle eyes, only without kindness and composure.

At a glance, he looks like an old, cunning, big thief!

In reality, he is the most honest person in the Government Affairs Hall. Xie Changling, that kind of bright and clear, with a good appearance, is the real big traitor! Great treachery looks like loyalty, with a top-tier appearance!

Sun Daoning's appearance fell into the lower tier. Not being reused, it is understandable.

No matter what era, what occasion, it all depends on the face! The court is no exception!

"Could it be that investigating the Wang family can avoid being liquidated by the Emperor?" He asked the question.

"No! If the Emperor is determined to handle you, no matter how this case is handled, you cannot escape. However, it can be delayed! It is as the saying goes, if things are urgent, slow them down; if things are slow, they can be rounded. Drag it for a while, maybe dragging it will bring a turning point. Future things, who can say for sure. Besides, let the friend die, not the poor Taoist! Old Sun, do you want to sacrifice the small self to achieve the big self, or do you want others to die?" ===== CHAPTER 1704 =====
