Chapter 256 The fox doesn’t take the blame

It rained this morning, and there was a bit of moisture in the air.

After Jingzhao Yin Hao Youcai tremblingly reported the incident in the King of Hell Pavilion, the atmosphere in the court became slightly depressed.

The emperor sat back on the dragon chair with a sick look on his face, "Gong Shangshu, what do you think of this matter?"

Gong Hui, the Secretary of the Ministry of Justice, was named and felt very grateful for Alexander.

This Hao You is really talented, and he wants to blame their punishment department for anything they can't handle.

Does he want to pick up the bad guy?
Definitely don't want to.

Who knows that getting involved with the King of Hell Pavilion will bring bad luck.

He doesn't know how to climb over walls. He can catch people who come and go in the world, but what can he do?

"This matter involves dozens of lives. In my opinion, it is better to let the Demon Suppression Division come forward to investigate clearly. After all, the Demon Suppression Division has a close relationship with the Jianghu, and most of the people it attracts are people from the Jianghu." Gong Shangshu laughed. Hehe looked at Ximen Bugui who was holding the jade tablet in his hand.

The latter gave a cold look in return, and then shouted back, "Your Majesty! I have now taken over a major case of water ghosts in my hands! And after investigation, it was found that these water ghosts were actually artificially disguised and made out of nothing! This should have been the Ministry of Punishment Or the case of Jingzhao Mansion, now that the old minister has crossed the line to take over, he really has no other energy to distract him. "

"After all, Gong Shangshu, Lord Hao, and the others in this case know very well how difficult it was when they had no clue before!"

"If Yuhu hadn't come back safely and shouldered this important task, the case would still be unsolved!"

Ximen Bugui showed a proud look on his face, "Thanks to my Jade Fox, the suspect was arrested and brought to justice within three days of his arrival."

"But Yuhu is very powerful. After all, she is still young and has limited energy. You can't put all the cases on her!"

Gong Shangshu chuckled and said, "Your Majesty, Lord Ximen, do you mean that without Lord Jade Fox in the court, it will really be impossible to turn around?"

"Then why do you always want to put the blame on Yuhu, our Demon Suppressing Department?" Ximen Bugui also choked, "Is it because you don't have anyone in the Criminal Department, or in your Jingzhao Mansion?"

"Your Majesty!" Ximen Bugui raised his jade wat and said loudly, "Although our Demon Suppression Department has expanded its staff many times, we can barely make up the sixty people currently in office!"

"As for the Criminal Department and Jingzhao Mansion, there are hundreds of people!"

"What happened to the hundreds of people? Those hundreds of people are not members of the Jianghu!" Gong Shangshu was speechless, "Shouldn't we discuss this with you? Your Demon Suppression Department is used to handling Jianghu cases! And this is originally about the Jianghu , you don’t care, who cares?”

"We have no one!" Ximen Bugui suddenly howled, "Your Majesty! Gong Shangshu is a pushover and wants to force our fox to death!"

Wang Zeng, the Minister of Punishment, took a step forward, "I heard that Mr. Yuhu still has time to visit Fengyue Tower. Doesn't this leave a lot of time to investigate the case? Mr. Yuhu doesn't go to court, so he has a lot more time than us. …”

Ximen Bugui turned around and spat at him, rolled up his sleeves and glared at him, "You, you, you! Wang Shilang, you are so disgusting! Your Majesty has tacitly approved of Yuhu not going to court. Yuhu has just returned to Beijing and has such a backlog in his hands. There are many cases that she needs to review and deal with, and now there is a water ghost case that is under investigation!"

"What? Do you want to put all the cases on her and make her vomit blood from overwork?"

His Majesty, who looked sick, was sitting on the throne, being noisy by a group of courtiers who looked like ducks in the West Lake below and had a splitting headache.

"Shut up!" the emperor shouted, looking at Ximen Bugui, who had a grimace and wrinkles on his face, "Ximen Aiqing, do you have any clue about this matter in the Palace of Hell? Do you know why he went on a killing spree in the capital?" Ximen Bugui said Gui really wanted to say, doesn’t the Palace of Hell just want to do justice for heaven?
But he certainly couldn't say this in front of the emperor.

Furthermore, the emperor really doesn’t know why the Palace of Hell killed so many people? I believe that with the power of Wu Desi, this matter has been investigated clearly.

"Your Majesty, the Palace of the King of Hell has indeed made frequent small moves in recent years. But I am not from the Palace of the King of Hell. How could I know why he started killing people in the capital." Ximen Bugui showed a bitter look on his face, "Now the Jingzhao Palace doesn't want to take care of it. The Ministry of Punishment doesn’t want to take care of it, so it just puts the blame on the old minister! Who can I ask for explanation? Is it the case of the Water Ghost or the Palace of Hell case? There are only about fifty people under my command.”

The emperor looked at him expressionlessly, "Aren't you about to recruit people? Then recruit in advance and recruit more knowledgeable people in the world. It is the time for the imperial court to employ people. As long as they are warriors who are loyal to the imperial court, All are acceptable.”

"Your Majesty, it is not up to the veteran to decide whether to recruit people. This recruitment does not require the approval of the Ministry of Personnel. Will the Ministry of Revenue allocate funds? Last time, the Minister of Personnel told the old minister that at most fifteen people can be recruited. This All told, my Demon Suppression Department only has about seventy people, which is not even one-fifth as big as the Punishment Department."

Ximen Bugui shook his head repeatedly, "Besides, Hubu Ge Langzhong also said last time that Hubu has no money! It can't recruit so many knowledgeable people."

Ge Tu was already irritable because of things at home. At this moment, he was sprayed by Ximen Bugui. He raised his dead-white face and glared at him.

The emperor took a breath and looked helpless, "I asked Zeyuan to take a hundred people to the Demon Suppression Department to help you handle the case together. What do you think?"

Ximen Bugui pouted, "We Huhu don't have that much free time!"

Immediately, several veterans started shouting, "You foxes have no time to go visit Fengyue Tower!"

"Huhu is going to Fengyue Tower to investigate the case!"

"Shut up!" The emperor had a headache. "I will ask Lu Shaoqing of Dali Temple to help you with it!"

Look, if you need Lu Shaoqing’s brains and Commander Huo’s strength, you’ve got it all!
Ximen Bugui silently shut up.

Liang Guang, the minister of Dali Temple, quit, "Your Majesty! Shaoqing has gone to help deal with the water ghost case!"

Ximen refused to return and complained again, "Is that a favor? This water ghost is a man-made disguise and should not be under the control of our Demon Suppression Department!"

Lu Qian said warmly, "Don't worry, Mr. Ximen, Mr. Liang, the water ghost case has some clues, and I think it will be solved soon. There is no need for you two to argue."

The emperor nodded and looked towards the Ministry of Revenue, "Secretary Su, the Demon Suppression Department is going to expand its staff. This time it will be expanded to one hundred people. Later, you can figure out how much money you can allocate."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Su Jingyuan bowed his head and saluted.

Look, look, the juniors still like it! He is good-looking and has a gentle temper, unlike those old guys who always take off their shoes and fight in the court!

The emperor was sitting on the throne, looking at the old ministers expressionlessly, and finally said, "Let's leave it at that. Lu Shaoqing, you can go to the Demon Suppression Department to help you right now, and leave the affairs of Dali Temple to Liang Aiqing and Wang Shaoqing."

Liang Guang rolled his eyes. He didn't expect that the Jingzhao Palace of the Ministry of Justice would take the blame and even he would be dragged into the water...

Fu Fu stood aside with a smile and said in a high-pitched voice, "If nothing happens, ministers will continue..."

"I have something to say!"
