Chapter 1063 Temporary Compromise
The one who walked into the cell was Liu Yumo, a member of the criminal department. He and Chen Mingxia were on the same list of Jinshi.

When Zhao Mingrui saw the person coming, he was overjoyed and exclaimed, "Liu admonishes you!"

Liu Yumo waved his hand, asked someone to bring some food, and said in a low voice, "Master Zhao, Mr. Chen Ge asked me to come over, so you can rest assured."

Zhao Mingrui stuffed food into his mouth and said, "Liu Gejian, you tell Mr. Chen Ge, I didn't say anything!"

Liu Yumo nodded slightly, "Old Chen Ge knows that he is very relieved of you, but the situation has changed a bit now, and Elder Chen hopes that you can change your confession."

Zhao Mingrui's heart trembled, once the confession was changed, the sentence would have to be re-sentenced, he hesitated, "How to change it?"

Liu Yumo said in a low voice: "Now Xuanyiwei has found out about our framing of Li Yanting. Mr. Ge hopes that you can take care of the matter and don't involve too many people. He said that you failed to ask for bribes from Li Yanting. Brochures were tampered with, and two shipments were exchanged."

Zhao Mingrui's heart sank, "Your Majesty is concerned about this matter, then I~"

Liu Yumo hurriedly comforted him: "This is not a big case at all, and the sentence may indeed be heavier after the confession is changed, but once the news dies down, with the old man's ability, how could he treat you badly!"

Zhao Mingrui showed hesitation, Liu Yumo glanced at him, and continued: "If this matter is involved too much, how many people will you offend? At that time, you will be the enemy of Xia Ge and the nobles, even if His Majesty does not pursue your crimes." Guilty, can you bear the anger of the nobles?"

These words made Zhao Mingrui shudder, and nodded quickly: "I understand!"

……

In the Tiange of the Imperial Palace, Gao Yihuan is wearing a dragon robe and a winged crown, sitting on the throne. Below are the three chief judges of the military case, reporting the progress of the case to Gao Yihuan.

With the evidence provided by Xuan Yiwei, Li Yanting was proved innocent, while Zhao Mingrui changed his confession, saying that he had asked for a bribe from Li Yanting but the other party refused to pay him. Out of resentment, he tampered with the goods policy. A bribe of 500 taels from the mansion.

After the interrogation was over and the truth came out, the Ministry of Criminal Justice decided to close the case, but the other two chief judges were a little unwilling.

The officials of the Southern Party have been tossed about for so long by the military assets case, and with resentment in their hearts, coupled with the perception that Shengyi seems to be on their side, they intend to continue to investigate.

One is to figure out the holy will, and the other is to launch a counterattack to defeat the Northern Party and seize the power of the court.

Gao Yihuan can tolerate corruption and all kinds of faults in his subordinates, but he can't tolerate his courtiers fooling and deceiving himself.

This incident touched his bottom line.

After listening to the three people's reports, Gao Yihuan was not satisfied with the result. He planned to use this opportunity to beat some people up.

"Okay, step back first!" Gao Yihuan waved his hand after listening to the report.

The three ministers hurriedly saluted, bowed and took a few steps back, then walked out of the hall, and when they reached the door, the three of them flicked their sleeves, snorted coldly, and parted ways.

Gao Yihuan pondered for a while, and then ordered: "Call Fang Jiayu to see me!"

Not long after, Fang Jiayu arrived and saluted Gao Yihuan, "Your Majesty is looking for a minister!"

Gao Yihuan nodded slightly, "I will give you a warrant. You go to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice and refer Zhao Mingrui to Xuanyiwei. You will have a trial and you can use torture!"

Fang Jiayu frowned slightly, but still bowed and said: "I accept orders!"

Gao Yihuan waved tiredly, "Get back!"

Fang Jiayu saluted and was about to exit the hall when Gao Yihuan suddenly said, "Wait a minute!"

Seeing that Fang Jiayu stopped, Gao Yihuan immediately asked, "Recently, the court has been distracted by the military assets case. What else happened in the world?"

Fang Jiayu pondered for a moment, then saluted: "Your Majesty, there is indeed something to do!"

Gao Yihuan said: "What is it?"

"Your Majesty, it's about Nanming!" Fang Jiayu said, "According to the news from the detailed report, Nanming seems to be planning to send troops to attack Luzon in the near future!"

Gao Yihuan cheered up, "Why don't you report such a big event?"

Fang Jiayu showed doubts on his face, "Your Majesty, Nanming didn't raid the southeast coast, but just attacked an overseas island. Is this a big deal?"

Gao Yihuan was taken aback for a moment, then waved his hand, "Forget it, go down!"

When Fang Jiayu left, Gao Yihuan fell into deep thought, "Nanming occupies Lu Song, and if I want to destroy Zhu Cihong, it will be difficult!"

Gao Yihuan got up from his seat and walked to the map, trying to restrain Nanming, but he had no idea.

……

The next morning, Gao Yihuan got up in a daze, and just got dressed and was about to go to the Tiange to discuss matters, when someone came to report that Fang Jiayu asked to see him.

Gao Yihuan frowned slightly, "Let him in!"

Gao Yihuan sat down on his seat, and seeing Fang Jiayu approaching in a panic, he couldn't help asking displeasedly, "Why are you panicking?"

Fang Jiayu didn't care to catch his breath, so he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Zhao Mingrui committed suicide in fear of crime."

"What?" Gao Yihuan slapped the table, furious in an instant, "What's going on?"

Fang Jiayu hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty, after I left the palace yesterday, it was getting late, so I ordered my subordinates to bring the formalities to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to pick him up this morning. I don't want to find that Zhao Mingrui has committed suicide after he passed by!"

Gao Yihuan's face twitched with anger, "Do they treat me like a three-year-old child?"

Fang Jiayu panicked for a while, and hurriedly saluted: "Your Majesty, I will send someone to investigate right now, to see who left the news, and see who succeeded!"

Gao Yihuan cursed a few words, just when Fang Jiayu was sweating on his back, thinking that Gao Yihuan was going to kill, Gao Yihuan suddenly calmed down, waved his hand suddenly and said, "Forget it, Zhao Mingrui committed suicide!"

The fact that the nobles dared to kill and silence them directly shows that they are in a hurry. This matter must be involved in a big way, and the situation may get out of control if the trouble continues, and Gao Yihuan is actually not ready to turn against the nobles.

Zhao Mingrui's death made Gao Yihuan sober up. This matter can no longer cause trouble. Once the situation expands and some people are involved, Gao Yihuan doesn't know how to deal with it. I'm afraid the situation will gradually get out of control.

If it continues to involve a huge amount, it will inevitably involve a large number of people, and at the same time, the party struggle will develop uncontrollably.

At this time, the Great Wei State has not completely eliminated the external hidden dangers, and Gao Yihuan does not want the Great Wei court to fall into turmoil.

At this moment, Gao Yihuan walked back to his seat and sat down, with a gloomy face, pondered for a while, and continued: "Let the San Judicial Division close the case quickly, and no one is allowed to bring this up again!"

Gao Yihuan was worried that a large number of nobles would be involved, and he would not be able to end the case, so he changed his mind and closed the case. At the same time, he did not allow the Southern Party to take the opportunity to counterattack, and decided to stabilize the court first and get back on track.

Fang Jiayu already understood Gao Yihuan's meaning, "I understand."

Gao Yihuan shook his head, "No, you don't understand! After the case is finalized by the Sanfa Division, the entire court is not allowed to discuss this matter, but Xuan Yiwei will continue to investigate in secret!"
