The Ming Dynasty’s Prodigal Son - Chapter 1565

[1565. Chapter 1486 Death]

Jiang Yan grimaced in pain and his eyes were filled with stars. What chilled him the most was His Majesty’s attitude.

His Majesty was like a glaring King Kong, and while he was in pain, he felt an unspeakable despair deep in his heart.

He groaned, covered his head, and fell to the ground: “Your Majesty… Your Majesty…”

The situation was so unexpected that all the officials were stunned.

An unprecedented atmosphere of panic filled everyone’s hearts.

They were filled with disbelief, but they dared not express their anger.

But he saw Emperor Hongzhi holding a wrench and walking quickly. His wrench pointed at Jiang Yan, who was like a puddle of mud, and said angrily: “How many more people like this are there in my temple, how many more…”

Jiang Yan Yan cried, he was… but… dignified…

“Xiao Banban, get the book.”

Xiao Jing was also frightened. He had never seen His Majesty so angry.

He did not dare to neglect and immediately took out a book.

“Open it and read it!”

Emperor Hongzhi said sternly, his gaze still on Jiang Yan like a sharp knife.

Xiao Jing opened the book, and with a bit of fear, he stuttered: “After verification, the silver money involved in the case of Ruyi Bank involved hundreds of officials: Shouning Hou and Jianchang Bo. The silver is 1.93 million. Two. Wu Jiansheng, the head of the Criminal Department, entrusted his nephew to invest in silver: one hundred and thirty-seven thousand taels…”

Xiao Jing read one by one, and finally came to Jiang Yan: “Jiang Yan, the censor of Qiandu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, entrusted his clan member Jiang Zheng. , invested 137,200 taels of silver…”

These people… are all related to Jiang Yan, and almost all the guests are involved.

In fact…it is very difficult to verify each one.

But since Jiang Yan was appointed as the imperial envoy, it has become much easier. The factory guards only focus on who is close to Jiang Yan and who is the most active in reversing the case. Then they focus on the target and conduct verification, almost one by one. allow.

After all, if there are no people involved in this matter, it will be in the past. Even if the case is overturned again, it has nothing to do with me. I can just watch the fun from the sidelines.

But it’s different for people who are related to their own huge interests. When they hear that there is a possibility of regaining their own interests, don’t you dance happily?

They either wrote a letter praising Jiang Yan for doing things impartially, or they suddenly became close to Jiang Yan and secretly encouraged Jiang Yan to handle the matter in their favor.

But now…

when someone is called in this book, someone in the class shudders and falls to the ground in fear.

At this point, people have even made it clear that you were involved in the exact amount of money. Do you still want to deny it?

In a short time, sixty or seventy people knelt down in the Fengtian Hall.

Emperor Hongzhi looked at these people and found it funny. Normally, they all acted like gentlemen. They kept repeating the sage’s book on their lips day and night. They spoke eloquently every day, saying that they should be gentlemen, gentlemen… ha. …

“I’m scared…” Emperor Hongzhi’s eyes were sarcastic and he couldn’t help but shudder: “After seeing these rosters and seeing what you did, I was extremely scared. How could the imperial court owe you anything? I have wronged you, but you, for your own selfishness, dare to do such a thing. You may not recognize this person in front of you, but I know him. His name is Chen Zhong. He has been in the border town for a long time and has worked for me. He made great contributions, but his legs were disabled at that time. I want to ask you, now that he is old and homeless, those nine taels of silver are his life-saving silver, and you people who are well-dressed and well-fed in Beijing, you What are you doing?”

“This Ming Dynasty is just a house. I give you a high position to repair and repair this house. As for you, you not only worked hard to pile firewood for this house, but also brought firewood to this house. Buckets of kerosene, you still want to light a fire in this house!

“You really want to see this house burn down and destroy our Ming Dynasty. How can there be such heartless people in the world?” What was written in the beautiful article you wrote when you were nominated for the Gold List? On weekdays, you keep talking about your family, your country, your country, your country… your country, your country, your country, the world! “

Emperor Hongzhi glared angrily and patrolled everyone.

All the ministers were frightened and fell down one after another: “I will die. “

Hearing the words “I will die”

, Emperor Hongzhi felt despair for no reason.

He had heard the word “I will die” too many times, but… people who say “I will die” usually will not die.

Emperor Hongzhi sat down on the Jindun coldly.

He stared at Chen Zhong opposite. Chen Zhong did not dare to look into Emperor Hongzhi’s eyes.

Emperor Hongzhi said loudly: “Chen Zhong, I am here to ask you, if the army’s departure is unfavorable. How about losing the battle?

Chen Zhong said subconsciously: “Behead!

“

Emperor Hongzhi said: “What if someone in the army escapes from the battle and abandons the robes around him?

“

“

The sudden mention of the military brought many memories to Chen Zhong’s mind. He seemed more confident than before: “Behead!”

“What about killing the people?

“According to military orders, we will also kill him!

“

“

Emperor Hongzhi closed his eyes, pursed his lips, and fell silent.

All the officials looked at Emperor Hongzhi in surprise.

Emperor Hongzhi suddenly opened his eyes: “It’s a pity…the court is not in the army, so it hides filth and evil. I’m really tired of hearing these gentleman’s words. It’s not that I shouldn’t listen to the gentleman’s words, and it’s not that the gentleman’s words don’t suit my heart.” , but I… feel cold, so many great principles are told to me, so many words of saints, none of these principles, as long as you follow the principles, you can rule the world. The people can live and work in peace and contentment, but…the military and civilians have never seen what it was like in the prosperous times. After thinking about it, Jiang Yan’s people are greedy and harm the people. Such people…should be punished

! As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Jiang Yan was frightened. His face turned pale for a moment, his eyes straightened up, and he forgot the desperate fear. He immediately said: “I… I’m wronged… I’m wronged…”

“No one has wronged you.” Emperor Hongzhi calmed down, his eyes as clear as an ancient well.

He stood up, looked at Jiang Yan on the ground, and said word by word: “I will not punish your three clans, nor will I kill your relatives. You will be responsible for the mistakes you have made. If you complain again at this time, It just wipes away the last bit of my kindness.”

Jiang Yan’s face became even more miserable with fear, and he immediately understood what His Majesty meant.

This is already lenient.

Still want to make trouble?

What qualifications do you have?

He looked up in despair and looked at the silent people in the palace. Suddenly, he seemed to think of the ambition he had when Han Chuang was studying hard. It seems that when he was named on the gold list, he was also complacent, but… that was a long time ago, and later…

he shivered, slowly buried his head under his shoulders, and kowtowed: “Chen… Chen… Tears

fell down at this moment. Jiang Yan clenched his fists, persisted, and continued: “I thank your Majesty for your grace.”

Emperor Hongzhi clasped his hands behind his back and never looked at Jiang Yan again: “All officials involved will be dismissed. Never use it!”

Among the officials, someone suddenly collapsed to the ground.

It seems that some people can’t bear it, especially seeing Jiang Yan and the miserable state of some people, and want to speak out and say something.

Emperor Hongzhi suddenly smiled and looked at everyone: “I know that when all the ministers see this situation, they will inevitably feel cold and feel that I am too mean and unkind. Yes, when I see Jiang Yan and these people, Which one is not familiar to me? Jiang Yan was once in the Hanlin Academy, and I have met him. Now he is crying here, how miserable he is. He is a minister, and I have met several times. He is close to me, and those … As for the people who suffered from his murderous hands, if I don’t see Chen Zhong, then to me, these people are people far away in the world. The people around me cry bitterly. How can they be indifferent if they are flesh and blood? But those people far away The people on the horizon are isolated from me by the palace wall. I can’t see them even if they cry dry tears. Therefore, if I don’t see Chen Zhong, I only see Jiang Yan crying like this, and I will feel soft-hearted when I see his heartbroken. “

Emperor Hongzhi paused and continued: “But if this person’s cry can bring smiles to millions of people, will you still be soft-hearted at this time? I don’t know what you think, and I also know that after today. “It’s rare for someone to accuse me of being tyrannical, but so what?”

He smiled scornfully, with a look of determination in his eyes: “Starting from today, the Ministry of Civil Affairs will come up with the regulations for the Beijing Inspection. In the past, the Beijing Inspection was still too light. It needs to be strict.” It would be better to be harsher. “

Jing Cha…

It’s Jing Cha’s article again…

Fang Jifan couldn’t help but feel a little bit in his heart, Your Majesty… what are you doing?

This Jingcha, when it comes to serious matters, is no joke. What impressed Fang Jifan most was a visit to Beijing in the history of the Ming Dynasty.

That is to say, after Emperor Zhengde ascended the throne, Liu Jin, that bitch, not only wanted to show his power, but also wanted to frighten all the officials. He took some wrong medicine and made a fuss over the Beijing police.

In fact, most of the previous Beijing-Inspection System was in vain, but in Liu Jin’s hands, the Beijing-Inspection System actually became serious. With the help of the Beijing-Inspection Bureau, Liu Jin eliminated many people.

Of course, this Beijing police officer also became Liu Jin’s accusation in the future, saying that he was forming a clique for personal gain.

In the end…Liu Jin was backlashed and ended up miserable!

And now… Ouyang Zhi replaced Liu Jin, accepted the emperor’s order, and began to restrain the officials…

Fang Jifan’s face sank, and there was a hint of darkness in his eyes… Will Ouyang Zhi’s end be better than Liu Jin’s in history?

After Fang Jifan came up with countless thoughts, Ouyang Zhi calmly left the office and said word by word: “I…obey the order!”

Emperor Hongzhi glanced at Ouyang Zhi with satisfaction.

If there wasn’t a selfless person like Ouyang Zhi, he really didn’t know whose hands he should entrust with the important responsibility of Beijing Police.

Emperor Hongzhi said: “Draw up a charter first…”

As he said that, he turned his eyes and gave Fang Jifan a meaningful look: “It’s best to discuss it with your mentor. He may have some ideas.”

Baiguan already had this in mind. Play the drums.

But when Ouyang Zhi and Fang Jifan were asked to discuss it again, many people took a deep breath.

This is going to fall into the hands of this bitch named Fang.
