Domineering Daming

Feng Jiangfeng was furious, turned around and left.

He is really angry, the villain Nu is plotting behind his back, these bastards Nu can't count on it at all, the consequences of Nu are too big, even the Jiangsu Governor's Yamen can't handle it!

As soon as Feng Jiangfeng left, Yang Xuekun and others were immediately escorted to the backyard.

Although they are guilty, but the case still needs to be investigated by imperial envoys, they can only watch over it, but can't do anything.

Feng Jiangfeng is impatient and impatient.This incident was raging throughout Jiangzuo, and the entire Jiangsu government was disgraced. If it could not be dealt with as soon as possible, the disturbance would be even greater, and the court might not be able to suppress it.

Terrible!

He also didn't return to Yingtian Mansion immediately, and stayed in Yangzhou to gather forces from all parties in an attempt to solve the case and solve this big trouble in one fell swoop.

At night, Gong Dingzi was boating on the Little Qinhuai River, accompanied by Zhang Lu and Chu Jianghan, the two anti-corruption bureau chiefs.

Little Qinhuai, of course, comes from the Qinhuai River in Nanjing. The lights on both sides of the river are red and green, and there are laughter and laughter. There are row upon row of flower boats on the river, and the music is full of waves.

Zhang Lu sat behind Gong Dingzi, looked ahead vigilantly, and said in a low voice: "My lord, I have basically found out. The people behind are doing things quite cleanly, not showing anything at all, let alone those who are criminals. Even we couldn't find any clues."

Chu Jianghan came from the criminal department of the Royal Political Academy, and he learned more advanced and comprehensive investigative methods, and then said: "My lord, the brothel that Zhou Tong sentenced to go to is called Qingjuyuan, and the two prostitutes have disappeared, but It is indeed this person from Qingju Garden who came to recruit prostitutes, and according to the description of the portrait, it should be Zhou Tongjuan himself, but it doesn't make sense here."

Gong Dingzi is quite official now, sitting still, looking at the front, said indifferently: "Zhou Jinyao has been in the capital for many years and has been trained. Even if he is sent abroad, he would not so blatantly recruit prostitutes. We will wait for the Yangzhou government office later. "

"Yes." Chu Jianghan was in his early thirties, with a square face, rather handsome, calm demeanor, and thought about it: "This matter is indeed strange. Looking at the whole case, the lower officials believe that the breakthrough point is not in the government office, but in the government office." This is Little Qinhuai."

Gong Dingzi was taken aback, and said, "What do you mean by that?"

Chu Jianghan bowed forward and said in a low voice: "My lord, these perpetrators are extraordinary. They acted swiftly and without sloppiness, without leaving any clues. The judge judged that these people either came from certain yamen of the imperial court. Either they have received special training, although they act cautiously, they still have to do the necessary steps, I believe that they are also on the river that night, and they will not be too far away from Zhou Tongpan's painting boat."

Zhang Lu followed and said, "My lord, I will send someone to investigate right now."

Gong Dingzi waved his hand and said, "This kind of investigation is too time-consuming, we can't afford to wait."

Although Chu Jianghan's official position is not high, everyone understands that this case is an earth-shattering case, and everyone in the Ming Dynasty is watching it, so there is really no delay.

He thought for a while and said, "My lord, this case is not so easy to solve. If this case is not solved, this matter cannot be solved. We have no other way."

Looking at Gong Dingzi's back, Zhang Lu cautiously warned: "My lord, this case is extraordinary, and it cannot be ruled out that those people will commit other cases, and those people from Yangzhou Prefecture cannot be used as heads."

Looking at the flower boat in front of him, Gong Dingzi stood up, opened his fan with a snap, and said slowly, "We're in the open, and no matter how dark they are, this case can't be delayed, and we can't investigate it aimlessly. Now that there is a breakthrough, then let out the wind, pack a pocket, and wait for someone to drill."

Chu Jianghan is a smart person, he can see through a little bit, and immediately said happily: "My lord is brilliant! I will let people prepare for this, let's say that someone on the river saw the face behind, and then protect it, and wait for them to silence!"

Gong Dingzi smiled, and said confidently: "Well, be careful, these people are not the simple people in the past, and they must be caught alive. Also, you can't put all your eggs in one basket. I don't believe that there is no clue at all in Yangzhou government. There is an internal response, after making the bag, at the same time, deploy in Yangzhou Mansion to find this internal thief."

There was reverence on Zhang Lu's face, and he said: "Yes, I will do it after waiting for this!"

Gong Dingzi glanced across the banks of the Little Qinhuai River, his expression quite emotional.

He was also a well-known talent in Jiangzuo back then, and his figure was everywhere on the Qinhuai River. I don't know how many famous prostitutes were crazy about him.

But now, he has cultivated his morals, stayed away from these things, and became a clean and moral gentleman.

Chu Jianghan looked at Gong Dingzi's back. He already knew a little about this Shangguan. After waiting for a while, he said, "My lord, do you have any other tricks?"

Zhang Lu was taken aback for a moment, and then turned to look at Gong Dingzi's back.

Gong Dingzi looked at the river, and said after a while: "These people have not simple backgrounds, and their methods are superb. It must take a lot of effort to arrange such a perfect case. I plan to find some people and find out."

Chu Jianghan knew that Gong Dingzi came from the south of the Yangtze River, and he had a lot of background here, so he said thoughtfully: "Then, let's take a three-pronged approach and work separately. By the way, my lord, please don't do it alone, and take it with you wherever you go." Enough guards, since they dare to attack the imperial envoy, they will not send us away."

Speaking of this, Gong Dingzi looked solemn, and said: "Well, you take my warrant and go to Jiangsu Governor Lu Qin to borrow five hundred soldiers... No, don't go to the Governor's Mansion, I will go to the garrison in person and ask Lu Xiangsheng to borrow it. It must be kept secret enough!"

Chu Jianghan, Zhang Lu's heart froze, a little startled.

Chu Jianghan hesitated slightly, and said, "My lord, it's not that serious, is it?"

Gong Dingzi shook his head and said: "This matter is not that simple. I heard some rumors in the capital that Nanzhili, especially the Shenlong Mansion, is not peaceful. We came here on order, and we must return satisfactorily. We must be extremely careful about this matter." .”

Chu Jianghan understood that this was something out of his reach, so he didn't say much.

Gong Dingzi's flower boat docked quickly, and the three of them headed straight for Yangzhou Mansion.

Just after they left, a flower boat also quietly ported in. The three people on the boat were all in the dark, watching the three of Gong Dingzi leave, and then went ashore.

The three of them wore tights, and they all looked like the housekeepers of a wealthy family, but they were strong in stature, calm in expression, and fierce on their faces.

"Are they going to Yangzhou Mansion?"

"It's useless, the two prostitutes have been sunk, and they can't find any evidence."

"As long as this case is not solved, this matter will not be closed. The capital has already been fried. It is said that hundreds of impeachment petitions have already entered the cabinet."

"Well, don't alarm them, we just need to watch the development of the situation, and we must not show our feet."

"Okay, let's go, we can't stay here any longer."

As the three of them spoke, they quickly went ashore and disappeared into the dark night.

The three of Gong Dingzi did not enter the Yangzhou Mansion, but entered the Fubing Yamen, which is directly under the Governor's Mansion, so it is difficult for outsiders to intervene.

It didn't take long for the imperial envoys to arrive, and the news that they wanted to borrow soldiers from the Governor's Mansion to investigate the case spread throughout Yangzhou Mansion, and then spread to the whole of Nanzhili.

Everyone in the dark was sneering, wanting to see Gong Dingzi's joke.

Feng Jiangfeng and all the officials in Nanzhili were watching. The case was too serious. They all hoped to solve the case as soon as possible, but they could not intervene in person, so as not to escalate the situation and make it happen.

However, for three days in a row, Gong Dingzi and others hid in the yamen, and no one knew what they were doing, as if they had disappeared.

Feng Jiangfeng paid a visit on the same day according to the etiquette, but he didn't get anything useful, so he was prevaricated.

Feng Jiangfeng is an impatient person. Seeing that Gong Dingzi was not paying attention, he urged the Criminal and Prison Department ten times a day to solve the case, driving a group of people almost crazy. The Yangzhou government investigated and arrested people, but there was still no clue.

Chapter 1187 Intense Changes

After a few days of fermenting, the incident in Yangzhou Mansion quickly spread to the capital, and naturally there was an uproar.

I don't know how many memorials were sent to the Supervisor of Ceremonies, and all the details of Zhou Jinyao were found out, like whipping a corpse, scolding him to pieces.

These didn't solve the hatred, and immediately dug out Zhou Jinyao's recommenders. The ancestors have changed for several generations, and then attacked the official department, and then the cabinet.

Although Zhu Xu has merged the Yanguan line into the Governor's Council by various means, and firmly controlled it, but this time, it was not them who wrote the letter of impeachment, but some prefectures and counties at the seventh rank to fifth rank. Most of them are high-ranking, and each of them is a Jinshi. They don't even use a word of swearing, but they can piss people off.

The most important thing is that there is another force emerging here, and that is the members of the national parliament.

These "idle people" from the local area have already accumulated a lot of dissatisfaction, and they seem to have found an outlet. They use various connections to guide public opinion and target the cabinet directly. Although Bi Ziyan's name is not mentioned, it is well known.

In the cabinet, Bi Ziyan's face was livid with anger, and he dropped a favorite teacup. The people outside were silent, and he had never seen Bi Ziyan so angry.
