Early in the morning, Yan Mansion.

Yan Chengjin ran quickly across the Caoqiao Bridge, and the water was gurgling under the bridge, and the air was fragrant and pleasant.

Li Qing'e next to her brought Qianlong and Chunxiao to reduce the buds and plant cucumbers in the shed.

He Neng trotted in, "Young Master, Mr. Li is here."

Li Dongyang walked into the yard with a gloomy face and looked at Yan Chengjin from a distance. "Change clothes and go to court!"

"The lower official has asked Fang Xue to inform the Supreme Emperor, and he has obtained the approval and will take a day off."

Li Dongyang glanced at Li Qing'e, then turned his head to look at Yan Chengjin, and his voice lowered a few degrees: "If you have something to do, you need to enter the palace!"

Yan Chengjin had to go back to his room and change into a regular dress, and couldn't help but think.

A quarter of an hour later, the cabinet.

When Xie Qian saw Yan Chengjin's figure, the anger in his chest seemed to explode.

"The Xie family lost the cloth shop, fertile fields and winery. Mr. Xie's younger brother was also imprisoned in a prison. Mr. Xie wanted to scold him, so he could be understood by the officials."

"You...you!"

This guy takes the initiative and shows his generosity first. If he scolds himself, he will appear narrow-minded, let alone, he is a respected old minister.

This guy is really vicious!

For a moment, Xie Shangu became even more angry.

Jiang Mian and the other two had little to do with Jiang Nan, and at this time, they also had a gloomy face.

Yan Chengjin looked at Li Dongyang and wondered: "Why does the Xiaguan feel that the cabinet today is different from yesterday?"

"Mr. Yan didn't come yesterday," Jiang Mian reminded.

"..." Yan Chengjin.

Cui Yan took out a memorial and began to look at Yan Chengjin.

"The prefect of Jinhua Wanfu, the prefect of Suzhou Bao Zhang, the co-governor of Suzhou Han Ling, the governor of Jiangxi Ma Long, the chief inspector of Jiangxi Yuan Bin, the commander-in-chief of Jiangxi Jinyiwei Zhao Liang, the commander-in-chief of Fengyang Guo Jian, and the prefect of Anqing Liu Zhong... all bribe Pingjiang Bo with more than 30,000 taels of silver."

"This is Ping Jiangbo's confession."

After Pingjiang Bo Chen Xiong was sentenced to raid his house, he confessed to thirty-seven officials in prison.

There are also some officials who do not often communicate with each other and need to check the account books in the mansion before they can find out their names.

This number is far beyond Li Dongyang and others' expectations.

The Jiangnan area is quite stable. These are all officials in power, with some soldiers in their hands.

Once arrested, it will cause a storm.

"Now, the news that Ping Jiang Bo was imprisoned has been announced to the world and will soon reach Jiangnan. Even if the court wants to punish these officials privately, it will not be able to do it." Jiang Mian spoke.

Cui Yan put down his memorial, "Wan Fu and others will definitely not sit still and wait for death."

Chen Xiong was guilty of death and his descendants were beheaded.

In anger, he exposes all the officials who have bribed the royal palace for several lifetimes in one breath, wishing that the officials in Jiangnan would be panic.

Yan Chengjin raised his eyes: "It is the duty of my official to inspect the court and the country. If he does not arrest Jiang Bo, he will be a dereliction of duty.

If all the officials secretly blame me forcing me, then I will not write any bullet stamps after that."

Xie Qian raised his eyes: "Take it serious?"

"Well, if you don't write, don't write."

Cui Yan hesitated: "The Supreme Emperor asked?"

"I can only tell you and promised Mr. Xie not to write any more stamps."

"..." Xie Qian.

A moment later, Li Dongyang sat at the head of the desk, and the other cabinet ministers also sat down one after another.

After some discussion, it was decided to imprison all the officials in Jiangnan.

...

Fengtian Palace,

The Supreme Emperor Hongzhi looked serious: "These thirty-seven officials were confessed by Mr. Ping Jiang himself?"

When he finished reading the roster, he had an answer in his mind, but he was still shocked by the number of people, which was more than twenty more people than the ones found in the Principal Office.

"The grain transportation is a heavy task. It is not surprising that Pingjiangbo supervises the grain transportation for several generations. However, the inspection of the Censorate is missing, and it is difficult to get rid of the tiger now." Wang Yang was worried.

Being imprisoned is a death sentence. How could officials be willing to be arrested and beheaded by the court?

But if we are not arrested and imprisoned, the precedent of the law not punishing the public will spread.

"Dare you sure that Lord Wang, do you know who Pingjiang Bo is corrupt in advance?" Yan Chengjin thought for a while and asked.

Wang Yang looked at him angrily, "Of course I don't know. If I knew not to repay it, wouldn't it be a serious crime? Don't you think about taking this official."

"Mr. Wang doesn't know, and naturally the Censorate doesn't know. Now that I know, it's okay, and I'll just be arrested in prison."

Wang Yan stared at the eyes: "The Supreme Emperor thinks twice, don't listen to this son's nonsense."

"I have revealed that Lord Wang has covered up Ping Jiangbo and Jiangnan's accomplices."

"..." Wang Liang.

"..." Li Dongyang.

"..." The Supreme Emperor Hongzhi.

Wang Yang didn't dare to speak more, so he had to glar deeply at Yan Chengjin, as if saying that you were cruel, you were waiting.

The hall was silent for a moment,

The Supreme Emperor Hongzhi sighed, "Can the officials in the cabinet have votes? How should this matter end?"

He had no intention of blaming the Censorate, but he was forced to end the matter.

Zhu Houzhao wanted to stop this matter. It was too simple to arrest him, and it could be considered a merit after arresting him.

Yan Chengjin saw this guy about to take a step and said first: "Mr. Wang said that he would not shelter, why not order the Ministry of Justice to arrest all these officials?"

Zhu Houzhao blinked, and saw that the momentum was wrong, she pulled her legs back.

Wang Yang was stunned: "Why is the Ministry of Justice?!"

"I remember well that Lord Wang Jiao's original home is Wu County, Jiangsu Province. His family is prosperous. Mr. Xie's family is also implicated in this matter. Why can Lord Wang stay out of the matter?"

"You...what do you mean?"

The Supreme Emperor Hongzhi raised his eyebrows slightly, and Master Wang Wan, the father of Master Wang, was once the local magistrate.

The two generations of ancestors also came from prominent backgrounds.

Their faces were different.

Xie Qian became serious. As far as he knew, the royal family background was very prominent in Jiangnan. Wang Yan's great-grandfather Wang Yanxiang was once a great merchant in Huaixi.

Grandfathers Wang Kui and Wang Wan both served as parents in wealthy places.

Wang Yang naturally felt the strange atmosphere.

"This matter was heard by the Ministry of Justice, and I will not refuse!" Wang Yang said in a deep voice.

The Supreme Emperor Hongzhi looked at the cabinet: "Is it really necessary to arrest so many officials?"

Yan Chengjin spoke and said only: "I wish you a blunt, if you were Emperor Gao, you would not be ruthless."

If Zhu Yuanzhang were there, these officials would probably have been made into straw men.

Because he was a beggar, Zhu Yuanzhang hated the most was corruption. One of the causes of Lan Yu's death was corruption.

Although there are many officials in Jiangnan, it is only a pain to arrest him.

There are many new Han Lin in Han Yuan, waiting for the pit to join the job.

After leaving the hall, Yan Chengjin was full of apology: "Mr. Wang, I also want to repay the court with loyalty. There are some bad words, and it is not directed at Lord Wang."

Why don’t you apologize to this official just now in the hall?

Wang Liang looked at him coldly, "Tell me! Have you read my official's scribe?"

"I watched it no less than a hundred times."

"???" Wang Liang.

"I said casually, Lord Wang doesn't have to be nervous."

Putting away his relaxed expression, Yan Chengjin was serious: "If arrested, he will die, and officials in Jiangnan will not be arrested obediently.

Lord Wang should pretend to comfort him first, wait until the people's hearts are stabilized, and then secretly arrest him and imprison him..."

I first did this, then this, and then this... I talked to Wang Liang.

"You think this official is Wang Qiong, so you don't need your guidance!"

"..." Wang Qiong.
Chapter completed!
