Under the coercion and inducement of Xu Zun and Zhang Fei, the unscrupulous son-in-law, the fearful Qi Ji could only lead a few people and call a few royal police officers to attack the Imperial City Division in a "mighty" manner.

The bad couple were sitting under the big tree in the courtyard, enjoying the cool air and drinking tea.

After all, this is an era without air conditioning and electric fans. It is better to sit outside. It is too stuffy in the house.

"Father-in-law, does the Chief Justice hold a grudge against the Imperial City Division?" Zhang Fei suddenly asked.

Xu Zundao: "It's not enough to hold grudges. I can only say that I am very dissatisfied with him. It's not just Mr. Zhao. In fact, most of the prime ministers are dissatisfied with some of the actions of the Imperial City Division."

Having said this, he paused for a moment, "But I was also curious before about why Mr. Zhao suddenly issued this order, so I also asked people to go to the imperial city to inquire about it."

Zhang Fei hurriedly asked: "Do you know the reason?"

Now that he has accepted this task, he has to understand that he doesn't know what else is going on here.

Xu Zun nodded and said: "It turns out that after this matter spread in the imperial city, many people were ready to take action, but Zhao Xianggong really did not want the justice to be used for political struggles like before, so he, Sima Junshi and the others

After some discussion, they said that the Public Security Bureau will take the initiative to intervene in the investigation and will give everyone a fair result. However, they also asked them not to use the topic to add fuel to the fire and make the court fall into turmoil again. After all, this is not a big case.

.”

Zhang Fei nodded, "It turns out that Princess Zhao took the initiative to intervene in this matter in the hope of settling the matter, rather than intending to stir up a bigger storm."

"That's right."

Xu Zun stroked his long beard and said: "But that also depends on whether the Imperial City Division will cooperate with the public prosecutor, if not, this matter may not be suppressed!"

Zhang Fei smiled and said: "That depends on the ability of our Inspector Qi."

Xu Zun suddenly whispered: "What about the official family...?"

Zhang Fei shook his head and said: "On the surface, the officials still have to protect the Imperial City Division, but the plan has been set. It doesn't matter even if it causes trouble, it will be beneficial to us."

Zhao Xu only agreed that the matter should be handled by the public prosecutor, but he would not put pressure on the Imperial City Division. Not to mention that the Imperial City Division was his biological son. The key is that Zhao Xu would have to use his anger to target the Imperial City Division.

, the soldiers were transformed.

It was not until evening that Qi Ji returned to the courtyard dragging his grievances and fatigue.

"How about it?"

Xu Zun knew this was troublesome as soon as he saw his expression.

Qi Ji said depressedly: "The Imperial City Division still refuses to let our procuratorate intervene."

Xu Zun frowned and said, "Didn't you show the imperial court's decree?"

Qi Ji nodded, "I went there and took out the imperial court's decree, but the Imperial City Division said that they would not be under the jurisdiction of the Public Security Bureau, and they would hand the case directly to Dali Temple."

There is indeed a loophole in this connection. The Imperial City Division used to connect with Kaifeng Mansion and Dali Temple, but now it should be connected with the Public Security Bureau, but there is no explicit provision on it. It makes sense for the Imperial City Division to say so.

After all, the Public Security Bureau and the Procuratorate are not the highest court. They also have the Dali Temple and the Criminal Court.

Zhang Fei asked: "You didn't slap our indictment in their faces and tell them what the king's law is."

Qi Ji became even more depressed, "I'll take the shot!"

Zhang Fei asked: "Then what did they say?"

Qi Jidao: "They really have royal skills!"

"Huh? What does that mean?"

Zhang Fei was immediately confused. Could it be that the royal method in our hands is fake?

Qi Ji suddenly said to Xu Zun: "Inspector Xu, do you know that in the second year of Xining, just after the Ayun case, the officials issued an edict."

"Ayun's case?"

Xu Zun stroked his beard.

I was the one who won Ayun’s case! Zhang Fei thought for a moment, “But what about absolving the crime?”

"no."

Qi Ji said: "It's about the Imperial City Division."

Zhang Fei shook his head and said, "Then I don't know."

At that time, he was not an official and was concentrating on starting a business, so he didn't know much about these things.

"I remember!"

Xu Zun suddenly said: "There seems to be such an edict!"

"What is it?"

Zhang Fei asked quickly.

Xu Zundao: "At that time, the official issued an edict in person, and the Imperial City Secretary personally served as an official. The relatives have committed a real crime. It can be seen that the crime of using the stick of reason has been committed, so the Imperial City Secretary was dismissed."

"What do you mean?"

Zhang Fei asked.

Xu Zundao: "That is, if the officials of the Imperial City Division violate the law, it will ultimately be left to the Imperial City Division to deal with it themselves."

"ah?"

Zhang Fei was dumbfounded, "Father-in-law... Chief Prosecutor, you... you remember correctly, right?"

"Chief Inspector Xu remembers correctly."

Qi Ji said in frustration: "The Imperial City Division also came up with this edict, so we can't prosecute them at all."

Zhang Fei suddenly looked dumbfounded.

I have seen shameless people, but I have never seen anyone so shameless.

If I make a mistake, I will handle it myself.

Damn it...!

Zhang Fei gained a new understanding of Zhao Xu.

Qi Ji asked again: "What should we do now?"

Xu Zun looked directly at Zhang Fei.

"Now...!"

Zhang Fei scratched his forehead in embarrassment and said, "It's getting late. Let's go back and rest first. Let's talk about it tomorrow."

Qi Ji glanced at Zhang Fei resentfully, weren't you very arrogant just now? It's better now, you've been slapped in the face.

Zhang Fei also felt that he was wronged. How did he know that there would be such a rogue edict.

Xu Zundao: "You go back first, I've made an appointment with a friend."

Zhang Fei was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

Xu Zun must communicate with officials in the DPRK and China to see what the current situation is in the DPRK and China. Currently, Zhang Fei is actually more like a technical official. Although he often interacts with Wang Anshi and Sima Guang, he has not integrated into that officialdom.

There were so many officials in the court, but none of them invited him to dinner. Xu Zun usually went to socialize. He was also the prosecutor after all.

.....

As soon as I arrived at the door and was about to get on the carriage and go back, I suddenly heard someone say: "I didn't expect that your Procuratorate is busier than our establishment of the Ordinance Department of the Second Government!"

This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Zhang Fei turned his head and saw Wang Anshi walking over with a smile. He first bowed his hands and then said: "I encountered something rather difficult.

thing."

"Imperial City Secretary?"

Wang Anshi smiled.

Zhang Fei nodded.

Wang Anshi raised his hand, and Zhang Fei hurriedly walked over and said, "Scholar Wang, please."

The two of them walked forward along the road, and Long Wu drove the carriage behind them.

"You are more careful when traveling than I am."

Wang Anshi glanced back and said with a smile.

Zhang Fei said truthfully: "After arriving in the capital, I was beaten several times immediately, and was assassinated again when I was on a business trip. Now I have offended as many people as Bachelor Wang. How can I be careless?"

"Then you don't know how to restrain yourself."

Wang Anshi said: "I have heard about the matter of the Imperial City Division. Those two soldiers were indeed too much. They said everything to the outside world. They brought it all on themselves. It is natural for the Imperial City Division to arrest them. You

Why bother to join in the fun? Do you know that the Imperial City Secretary is the closest person to the official family, and you will offend all the official family."

"This is really unjust!"

Zhang Fei was about to cry but said: "Our procuratorate originally didn't want to take care of it, but the imperial court suddenly issued an order, so we have to take care of it regardless of it."

Wang Anshi said: "The orders of the imperial court must be obeyed. Why does he ask the procuratorate to investigate? And if you are so smart, wouldn't you use regulations to refute the imperial court? You can do whatever he asks you to do. Isn't this the public prosecutor's office?

Check and balance each other?"

Yes! So what about the king's laws? What about the edicts? There will always be flaws. Zhang Fei's eyes suddenly lit up and he lowered his eyebrows in thought.
