Chapter 440 Vision
Although Shen Hao's job title is not low now, starting from the fifth grade, and he is also a member of the Hundred Households of the Black Flag Camp in a hub city like Fengri City, his status is at least not underestimated in the local area.
But after all, Shen Hao has only been in this world for eleven years, and he has been hanging around in the Xuanqing Guard from the very beginning, so he has very little contact with the local area, let alone know much about those civil servants who rarely deal with him. up.
He came up with the previous plan himself, but he never thought that he would be criticized by Pang Ban as "too young".
Shen Hao was puzzled, but it was difficult to ask.
It was Jiang Cheng who explained: "Civilian officials don't like the army, but they are worried that the rise of the army will threaten their current dominant position in the ruling and opposition parties. What's more, the barbarians are restless now, and the peak of the army will rise. It is foreseeable that once the army is restored Brace yourself, the civil servants will be retaliated wildly. So they are admonishing His Majesty recently to solve the barbarian issue in a "moderate way" instead of fighting.
But the civil servants don't like the army, and they don't like our Xuanqingwei either. They are like dogs, they don't have enough to feed, and they want to squeeze out all the voices around them that are different from them.
Therefore, once these civil servants find a reasonable excuse to intervene, they will not only push the army to death, but also use the excuse to drag us Xuan Qingwei into the quagmire. Not to mention far away, what do you think you should do with the label of "unfavorable work" on our heads? They have the criminal department, so it is not impossible to take away the right to host the case.
Do you understand now? "
Shen Hao nodded repeatedly. He really didn't expect that the factional struggle in the temple had reached such a point before. What's even more weird is that those civil servants still want to be gentle with the barbarians? Feud! If you come to be gentle and others will kill you, what kind of brain circuit can you have this kind of thinking?
But if he couldn't take advantage of the civil society group, Shen Hao would have less confidence in his heart. At least for now, he can't think of any practical way to open the next breakthrough.
However, unexpectedly, Pang Ban did not criticize harshly, but said: "Remember, the case continues to move forward, and you continue to be cautious and do your best to investigate. But don't contact people and forces other than Xuan Qingwei without authorization. Communicate with Lord Jiang in time for matters that cannot be decided. Do you understand?"
"The subordinate understands."
"I'll handle the confiscated warrant after I'm on business, and I'll hand it over to you when your people come to the imperial city. That's it, hurry up and do business."
"It's my lord, this subordinate will leave."
Shen Hao left in a hurry, he wanted to go back and organize his manpower, he was going to come to the imperial city at dawn to search the Xu family.
But Jiang Cheng stayed in Pang Ban's house and did not leave.
"My lord, what if Shen Hao loses the clue and can't push it?" Jiang Cheng had to think so. In the past, Zhou Qing and his like were able to resist torture without confessing. Xu Hong was afraid that his bones would be stronger. Once all traces were covered up, the case would most likely be broken in Xu Hong's hands. It is out of the question to continue the investigation.
"What should I do? You have to wait for your disciple to give you the answer. As I said before, Yang Yansi is not Yi Yi's generation, and it is very difficult to find him. Even Shen Hao can find another way to get Xu Hong It’s been a bit beyond my expectations.”
Jiang Cheng was puzzled. It stands to reason that this case is already full of storms, and even His Majesty stepped down to help cover it. If it is not resolved or abandoned halfway, it will definitely be a huge blow to Pang Ban's reputation.
The emperor is not easy to talk to. If you dare to ask him to help but fail to satisfy him, the result will be hard to say. Remove a general in the army or a minister in the civil service, and maybe someone will come out to intercede, making it difficult for the emperor to start. However, the removal of a Xuan Qingwei's commander will make others only applaud and celebrate, and will never plead for mercy.
This is the disadvantage of Xuan Qingwei as a lone minister: he has no power, and the emperor can decide whether to live or die with one word.
"Why can't you figure it out?" Pang Ban pointed to the teapot beside him, and Jiang Cheng hurriedly got up to mix Pang Ban a cup.
"My lord, my subordinates don't understand. If this case falls into our hands, it will be a disaster."
"Hehe, smash it? How did you smash it?"
"Ah? My lord, if Shen Hao can't push the case, the case will be broken on Xu Hong, isn't it just smashed?"
Pang Ban took a sip of the newly added hot tea, but suddenly started another topic, saying: "Do you know that your student was almost killed on the street by phantom killing before?"
"This subordinate knows that Kuang Shengyuan, a thousand households in Fengri City, is currently arresting that case."
"Someone wants Shen Hao to die. Who is it?" Pang Ban paused, and before Jiang Cheng could answer, he continued on his own: "If it's a personal enmity, the timing is too coincidental. I usually don't like it." Use coincidence to explain things, so the guess is that someone has to kill Shen Hao at this juncture. Who do you think will be the happiest if Shen Hao dies?"
Jiang Cheng followed Pang Ban's words: "Yang Yansi? Xu Hong?"
"No, the happiest people should be the people watching the show."
"The theatergoers? You mean, the civil servants?"
"It's not just civil servants. His Majesty suddenly invited the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty to go on a safari, and it was chosen at such a season. Anyone with a little brain knows that things are not easy.
Besides, I didn't go for His Majesty's personal soldier, which makes people think even more.
Then Shen Hao's movements in the Jingxi Army and the Frontier Army were so great, including the Ministry of War, which was also filled with resentment by Wen Mingju, these things could not be concealed. Those who were taken on a safari by His Majesty could not come back, but who didn't have the note of a thousand miles? Getting news is easy.
Therefore, not only the civil servants were watching the excitement, but also those royal family members who were restless recently, as well as big merchants from all walks of life.
Tell me, if Shen Hao died, wouldn't the army be the most suspect? Or just Yang Yansi and Xu Hong? At that time, whether it is to avenge Shen Hao or Xuan Qingwei's face, we and the army will be at odds, and the temple will be even more chaotic. Isn't it lively? "
The more Jiang Cheng listened, the more confused he became, and he didn't know what to say. But he understood one thing. According to Pang Ban, someone is fanning the flames, and the purpose seems to be to use this case to disrupt the temple's layout even more?
But does this have anything to do with the case itself?
Seeing that Jiang Cheng was silent, Pang Ban smiled and continued: "Someone wants us to mess up, but we just can't. Now that the war is coming, stability is of course the most important thing. There can't be chaos in the temple, even in the army. There can be no chaos. So from the very beginning, it is unrealistic to take Yang Yansi down in this case. Even His Majesty would not dare to mobilize the first person in the army at this juncture.
So the case falls on Xu Hong is the limit.
But being unable to move does not mean that it will be exposed. We need evidence to arrest, imprison, and investigate, but His Majesty doesn't need it. do you understand me? "
