Difficult for a son-in-law
Chapter 193
Ming Zhan is a very jealous person, and his suspicion is so great that it is quite true to the Feng clan.
As Ruan Hongfei expected, Ming Zhan didn't need to worry about Song Huai's matter, Feng Jing made an imperial decree and it was resolved.At this time, Ma Wei's 1 people were loyal to Ming Zhan, and the general of Fuzhou had been replaced.There is only one Hangzhou general who is always trembling, for fear that he will be implicated anytime.
The ink corruption case in Zhejiang and Fujian occurred in the last years of Emperor Jing, before Emperor Wu ascended the throne.However, at that time, Emperor Wu tried the case in person as a prince, and historians habitually classified this case as an extremely influential case in Emperor Wu's ruling career.
There are so many people involved in this case, and the amount of money involved is huge, needless to say the political influence.Moreover, since this case, Emperor Wu's unique thinking that is different from others has also been seen for the first time.
Ming Zhan ordered Song Huai to be arrested. At this time, Yushitai and the officials of the six ministries were all on the sidelines, so there was no shortage of manpower.However, Ming Zhan turned dark on Ruan Hongfei's face for a long time, not to mention that he made a careless move last night and returned to his seat, leaving nothing left to eat. Ming Zhan only has a tacit understanding with his family Feifei and Feng Jing Just a little unhappy.
If it wasn't for the two calling each other "sluts", and Ming Zhan was quite confident in his beauty, he would have doubted that the two had fallen in love with each other!
Despite this, Ming Zhan was still jealous for a long time, and asked Ruan Hongfei if he had contacted Feng Jingqian in private.
Ruan Hongfei said, "Are you out of your mind? I will communicate with that bitch? When I see his handwriting, I want to go out and vomit, and when I think of his face, I want to slash twice. He was in the palace for a day. I don’t want to go to the imperial capital.”
Ming Zhan felt a little balanced in his heart, and couldn't help but choked Ruan Hongfei, "Don't say that, you pretended to be Wei Ning before, and you didn't want to be a cow in front of him, so you still want to please him?" Ming Zhan suddenly thought of something, and his lips There was a smirk at the corner of his mouth, "That time my father hit the board, who was it?"
Ruan Hongfei said calmly, "Of course it's that idiot Zimin. If it were me, I would have doubled it back to your bitch father in the imperial capital last year."
Ming Zhan was rather disappointed, and joked, "Look at your brothers calling each other sluts, I don't know who is taking advantage of it?"
"It's cheaper for you, son of a bitch, nephew of a bitch."
Ming Zhan cut off Ruan Hongfei's words, kissed him with a stern face, and smiled brightly, "Yeah, it's just right for your bitch brother, bitch uncle, or we are a match made in heaven."
When it comes to the thickness of the skin, Ruan Hongfei also had to be defeated, so he simply dismissed Ming Zhan, "You should go and see Song Huai, so that he won't suffer from prison."
"Let's go together."
"This is a matter for the imperial court. I don't want to get involved." Ruan Hongfei is a sensible person, and power matters are the easiest to create a gap. Although he and Ming Zhan are in love with each other, they are also smart people, so we should be more cautious and manage this relationship carefully. .
Ming Zhan hugged Ruan Hongfei's arm, "Let's go, I believe in you. What's the point of sitting on the throne alone? Are you satisfied with being a massage stick by my side? Let's go, you have to remember to marry Husband, just don’t steal my limelight.”
Although Ruan Hongfei didn't know the meaning of the massage stick, he guessed it roughly, he never competed with Ming Zhan when talking, he poked Ming Zhan's waist with his fingers, and said with a smile, "Could it be that my minister didn't serve His Highness well last night? "
Ming Zhan worked hard last night, right at the waist, almost stabbed to the ground by him, rubbed his waist, his face embarrassed, "You are gentler. Every time you only care about your own refreshment, even though I am amazing, I can't toss around every night." Seeing Ruan Hongfei couldn't suppress the complacency in his eyes, Ming Zhan poured cold water on it, "Besides, at your age, you need to take good care of it."
Ruan Hongfei smiled and pinched Ming Zhan's butt, "Let's speak with facts."
"Get down to business first." Ming Zhan dragged Ruan Hongfei to visit the prison.
Song Huai was also the Governor-General before. Although the conditions in the prison were mediocre, the cleaning was still clean. Without waiting for Ming Zhan to speak, Governor Song directly knelt on the ground, licked three heads, and said in a mournful voice, "The guilty minister has more than enough to die. , all the criminals are willing to confess, I just ask His Highness to forgive me, and don't implicate the family of the criminals."
The series of beheadings of the criminals' immediate family members at least cast a certain shadow in Governor Song's mind.His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has personally admitted that he doesn't care about face that much!
If the superior didn't even care about his face, then what he did would be quite difficult to think about, not to mention Ming Zhan's mind has always been unpredictable, and ordinary people can't guess one or two.
Song Huai is a sensible person. As a first-rank governor, if the crown prince did not intend to deal with him, he would not be sent to prison.So he would rather confess, ask for a favor, and save the lives of his family at least.
"You are a smart man." Ming Zhan sat in the chair, looked at Song Huai's well-maintained face in the past, showing a little tired and haggard, with gray temples, and sighed, "In the two years in Zhejiang and Fujian, the food tax has been stable. growth, and there is no large-scale piracy in the Zhejiang-Fujian sea area. Funding the academy, caring for the orphans, and even your collusion with pirates to do business, I don’t really care about it.”
"It's just that you shouldn't drink soldiers' blood, and besides, you're too courageous." Ming Zhan said softly, "You know exactly what's going on in the armory. Also, as the governor of a province, you should understand, It’s fine to sell those pots and pans to pirates. You have a big heart, and you dare to shoot with knives, guns, arrows and halberds. If this is the case, I can’t tolerate it.”
Knowing Ming Zhan's words, Song Huai knew that he had no life left, so he swayed a few times and nearly fell to the ground, his face was downcast, "The guilty minister owes the trust of the emperor and His Highness."
"I don't want to be deceived."
Such an ordinary sentence, Song Huai's heart trembled when he heard it, and hurriedly said, "The guilty minister knows everything."
The process of interrogating Song Huai went extremely smoothly. Ming Zhan's ruthless name just came out, and other idlers would give him a frown. Besides, Song Huai has the most intuitive and most appropriate feeling for the methods of His Royal Highness, so he really dare not hide anything. .
He summoned Mr. Wang to take notes at the side, and listened to Song Huai talk about how to withhold soldiers' pay, how to falsely report the number of soldiers, how to collude with pirates, the money account books of greedy ink, and the account books of transactions with pirates. It didn't bother the servant of the Ministry of punishment.
When Mr. Wang heard the anger, he couldn't help but roar flatly, "What a thief, you are worthy of the emperor's trust and encouragement!"
Ming Zhan was thinking about something, and suddenly he was startled by Mr. Wang, and frowned, "What are you shouting for? Mr. Song is recruiting. Then go and check Zhou Zhiyuan, Song Xiang and others, and the rest of the criminals Subpoenaed for investigation according to the order."
Mr. Wang stood up and pleaded guilty, "The minister got angry for a moment and offended His Highness, it is a crime of disrespect."
"Okay, just pay attention next time." Ming Zhan sighed, "What's the use of shouting and shouting? He has already committed a crime. Now the most urgent thing is to clean up the Zhejiang and Fujian areas." He glanced at Song Huai Ming Zhan told the guard, "No one is allowed to see Master Song, and don't treat and humiliate him badly. If Master Song makes any mistakes, all of you will have to pay for his life!"
The guards took the lead.
Ming Zhan said to Song Huai again, "Please understand yourself, you are here, some sewage can't be poured on your family. Now I don't think one or two of you will die. Once you die, many things will be unclear .”
Song Huai understood Ming Zhan's meaning of thanking Zhong, thinking of his young gold medal, he spent his whole life in the camp, and ended up with such a result, how much remorse and remorse he felt cannot be described, and wept and kowtowed, "The guilty minister thank Your Highness Long En."
Ming Zhan couldn't help sighing when he went back, Ruan Hongfei said, "I didn't see you like this before with Zheng Zhen." In fact, Ming Zhan has a heart of iron, and he doesn't even move his eyebrows when he kills people. He developed a bodhisattva heart towards Song Huai.
"What's the matter? The man surnamed Zheng acts viciously, but he's just a muddlehead." Ming Zhan pulled Ruan Hongfei to sit down, "Although Song Huai seems to be flattered by clever tricks, let's just see that Zhejiang and Fujian will be peaceful for two years under his rule. In fact, this person can be called a capable minister. I don’t really care about the collusion with pirates, but it’s a taboo for him to smuggle weapons.”
"He is too capable." Ruan Hongfei sneered, "If I say that smart people are dishonest, it is better to call stupid people. At least this stupid people can't think of these tricks."
"Forget it, Song Huai won't survive anyway."
The Governor is finished. According to the Governor’s confession, the Governor’s chief minister will then make a vine from the Hangzhou prefect. It is obvious that spring has begun, but the spring in the south of the Yangtze River is still cold, and people dare not take off their sweaters easily.
Officials in the entire Jiangnan now have much less time to go out to eat and drink, not to mention accepting bribes and grabbing land.All the chief officials asked their staff to take back the account books under their own management. If the accounts were not balanced, they would rather sell some furniture and borrow some foreign accounts to make up for it.
Governor Ren was originally the prince's uncle, but now he has also been sent to prison with Da Liuer.Seeing that the prince has killed his relatives righteously, the others have nothing to complain about.
Only Mrs. Ren sent someone to deliver a letter to her mother's family in the imperial capital with tears in her eyes. She only hoped that her father and younger brother could deal with the prince for a while, for the sake of relatives.
Wei Yingjia received the elder sister's letter, so she couldn't help showing it to her father. The old Yongninghou waved his hand, "It's useless. The new official takes office three times, and the crown prince is about to ascend the throne. This is to clean up officials, even if my old face Take it out, the crown prince will reward you with grace or not. The first is to embarrass him; the second is obviously that we are arrogant, and those who have the face are also shameless."
"Then I'll write back to the eldest sister."
The old Marquis of Yongning closed his fur cloak and sighed, "Although your elder brother-in-law is talented and learned, he is the most courageous and cautious, and also somewhat ambitious. Let me tell you, his temperament is not enough to be a governor. It's over. Now that the crown prince is on a tour to the south, and he is married to our family again, even if he wants to go further, he should show his skills, so that the crown prince may benefit from seeing his relatives. But he is so ignorant, Not only can't share the prince's worries, but there is a case that implicates him."
Wei Yingjia said, "The crown prince and the emperor are not biological father and son after all."
"This is to the point." The old Yongning Hou whispered, "Even his own son, he is also taboo against foreign relatives. For the sake of your seventh sister, the crown prince is only your uncle. Admiral, it can be seen that we are kind to our family. However, if the crown prince cannot ascend the throne for a day, we will live with our heads shrunk. Even if the crown prince ascends the throne, we have to do business in a peaceful manner. Our family is rich and well-off. How long is the future? You need to have an account in your heart."
Wei Yingjia hurriedly responded, and the old Yongning Hou said, "There is no need to write this letter, let alone send people to Jiangnan."
While the father and son were talking, a servant outside sent a message saying, "Master Li Tianfu from Yushitai is here to visit Lord Hou."
Old Yongninghou frowned, "Which Li Tianfu?"
"My lord Wang went to the south of the Yangtze River with the crown prince. Li Tianfu is the censor of Youdu. We have never had any contact with him, so I don't know why he is here?" Wei Yingjia also felt strange.
"I'm afraid it's not a good thing. Go and have a look. Send someone to tell me something."
The old Marquis of Yongning is mature and refined, and he is always three-pointed in thinking about things.After a while, Wei Yingjia came back with a dark face, with a hint of anger in her voice, "Something happened to the Zhao family."
"what happened?"
Speaking of which family doesn't have many bad relatives, the old Yongning Hou runs his family well, and his few sons and daughters are considered good-for-nothing, and those who are not good-for-nothing know how to live in peace.Although there is only one son, Wei Yingjia, he was born young and mature, and he is willing to work hard when he is on an errand, so there is no need for the old Marquis Yongning to work hard.
It's just that Uncle Wei Yingjia's family, originally surnamed Zhao, sold their daughter in a disaster year, but they didn't know that their daughter was blessed and gave birth to a son for the old Marquis of Yongning.
Because the Zhao family can be considered a serious farming family, the old Marquis Yongning helped them with some silver, bought hundreds of acres of land, and established a family business.This was originally for the sake of his son's good looks, but the Zhao family was still in peace. In recent years, thanks to having a nephew of Lord Hou, they have become more and more grown-up.
Wei Yingjia suppressed him a few times, but Fang calmed down a little.Now everyone in the world knows that the crown prince is the nephew of the Yongning Marquis, and that the uncle and grandpa of the crown prince still live in shrinking heads. I don't know anymore.
Speaking of which, Wei Yingjia has only one uncle, Zhao Da, who established his own family business, married a wife and took concubines, and gave birth to three or four sons.However, none of the scholars are successful, and there are disputes between the heirs and concubines, and the fight between chickens and geese is endless.There is also a cousin named Zhao Xizhe, who is a cockfighting dog, causing trouble, and is also a man.
Zhao Xi went out to watch the hawks and walk the dogs, and met the son of a tenant family in his own village, and looked at him right.Although he was born in a poorer family, he is still a decent commoner, and he has already passed the test of being a scholar, so how can he think of Zhao Xi and other idlers.
Zhao Xi has always regarded himself as the cousin of the Marquis of Yongning, not to mention that now the prince's mother's family is the Marquis of Yongning's mansion, he claims to be the prince's cousin, and he insists on using him.In grief and indignation, the little scholar went to the imperial capital to present a case, and was killed by a head-on collision.
Wei Yingjia was busy with errands, and it was this afternoon, so she didn't know for a while.
In the imperial capital, who would really put the Zhao family in their eyes.It's just that people have to consider Yongning Hou's Mansion, the Prince's uncle's house, and the Prince's grandfather is still there.The Zhao family is also the in-laws of the Marquis of Yongning, so when the Zhao family is moved, it is inevitable that the Marquis of Yongning must be notified.
Li Tianfu sighed to Wei Yingjia for a while, to the effect that: now half of the city knows, this matter cannot be concealed, the memorial has been written, and if you need to read a copy tomorrow, you have something in mind Prepare.
The old Yongning Hou slapped the table and said angrily, "This is really rushing to die. Don't intercede with the Zhao family tomorrow morning!" What to worry about.
"Of course I..." Wei Yingjia stomped her feet and said, "What a family of idiots! I told them to behave themselves, but they really don't know what to do to do such an embarrassing thing!"
"You should think about it. If the Zhao family has a future, we should help it." The old Yongninghou said coldly, "Bao'er is still young, and your daughter-in-law is pregnant again. In the future, your children will be in groups... Zhao How does a family like the Zhao family move around! You wipe their ass every time, not only you are affected, but the next generation of children and grandchildren, our generations are dedicated to the Zhao family's lawsuit! When will it be the boss! You look at it It's hard to say that I can go one step further and be disgusted by the Zhao family like this!"
No matter how close the uncle's family is, it is no better than kissing his own father, not to mention that the old Yongninghou hadn't let his son walk around with the Zhao family since he was a child, and Wei Yingjia began to have a headache for the uncle's family when he was a little older.Now that such a thing happened to the Zhao family at such a terrible time, it really embarrassed even the Wei family.
Wei Yingjia lowered her eyes and said, "The Zhao family should learn some lessons. I'm afraid this matter will not be easy to deal with. The crown prince sent officials from two provinces in the south of the Yangtze River. How do you know that there are no villains who want to see the crown prince's jokes?"
The old Marquis of Yongning sighed, "I'm afraid that it's not just...that's all, you just need to remember that it's absolutely difficult for our family to intervene in this matter... People from the Zhao family, don't see them, just let them go."
Sure enough, on the second day, Feng Jingqian temporarily suppressed the matter, and only ordered Zhao Xi to be imprisoned for trial by the Ministry of Criminal Justice, without saying a word.The Marquis of Yongning knew all about his unfinished meaning, and he didn't dare to say a word or take a step.Wei Yingjia only cares about working in the yamen every day, but the Zhao family came to look for her several times, and even guarded the yamen's gate as a rogue.
Because of face, Wei Yingjia had to go to see her.Zhao Da brought his wife, concubine and children and was about to kneel down to his nephew. Before Wei Yingjia could speak, the servants around him had already helped Zhao Da and others up. Zhao Da burst into tears, "I gave birth to this evil beast , I beg my nephew to save him for the sake of his being your cousin."
Wei Yingjia stared coldly at Zhao Da's son for a while, making Zhao Da feel uncomfortable. Wei Yingjia said, "After the incident, Zhao Xi has already been sent to prison, but he has nothing to do in prison. Worry for life!"
Zhao Dafang breathed a sigh of relief, his wife Li choked up and said, "Your cousin has never suffered such a thing, at least let us get some food and clothes to go in."
"You don't need to be busy, he just stayed in prison for a while. That scholar is young and has a bright future, and his life was ruined just like that. If there is a grievance, who will tell him!" Wei Yingjia sneered, "I've already As I said, now that you have a family, a family, and a population, I want you to be safe! But you can’t stand up to other people’s three or five good words, and you can float to the sky with a light bone! Now such a disaster has happened! Please, I’m not an official of the Ministry of Punishment Son, it's not the governor of the imperial capital either! Asking me to intercede, I don't think I have such a big face! Uncle, please do it yourself, and don't ask someone to wait for me at the gate of the yamen!" Seeing that Wei Yingjia was about to leave, Zhao Da hurriedly Grabbing his nephew's sleeve, he said, "It turned out that the two were good friends and gave money to the scholar. I can't blame your cousin for this matter."
"Uncle, you don't need to tell me this, go to the lobby of the Ministry of Punishment and excuse Zhao Xi."
The nephew and uncle were tearing apart, when there was a howl from inside, an old lady in gold and silver, clutching a sandalwood walking stick, holding the little girl's hand, came in tremblingly.Her face was covered with tears because of crying, and she couldn't tell what she looked like.As soon as Zhao Day saw his old lady go out, tears welled up, and he cried, "Good nephew, just look at your grandmother's face."
The old lady Zhao burst into tears, crying like tears, and begged, "Brother Ying, my old lady is old enough to send a white-haired person to a black-haired person? Wouldn't this kill me?"
Not only was Wei Yingjia cold-faced, but her heart was also warm-hearted. Moreover, the Zhao family really didn't show face, and made troubles repeatedly without stopping.Wei Yingjia said indifferently, "Man's fate is predestined, so grandma doesn't need to be sad. If Zhao Xi's fate is great, he will be safe. If his fate should be here, it is also God's will. Grandma doesn't often chant Buddha, and she should know that Buddhism pays attention to cause and effect, doesn't it?" Manpower can be demanded. Besides, my grandmother is devoted to her children and grandchildren. She sold my mother into the Marquis's mansion that year. Later, my father helped my uncle buy a house and land for my sake. No one knows what happened back then, but my grandmother and uncle will definitely remember it. My mother’s surname is Zhao, but I’m not! If my grandmother thinks that our surname Wei is unrighteous, we will return to Luqiao and return to bridge! I wrote a letter of severance in the yamen of the imperial capital’s governor, and now I’m going to save my face. Already!"
The old lady Zhao choked for a moment, and Wei Yingjia forced her to ask, "How is it? Grandma just give me a letter!"
The old lady Zhao looked at her children and grandchildren tremblingly, Zhao Da turned her face away, the old lady Zhao just snapped and passed away.
The Zhao family is so busy, but Ming Zhan settles the case happily in Zhejiang and Fujian. Gods and ghosts are afraid of evil people.
Those who should be ransacked, those who should be sent to prison, until Mingzhan returned to the imperial capital, the officials above the third grade of Zhejiang and Fujian were changed all over the place.Moreover, Ming Zhan was always kind. Originally, the Zhejiang and Fujian soldiers were only paid half of the salary deducted. After the case was over, Ming Zhan made up for the soldiers who had been deducted during Song Huai's administration.In this way, everyone in the whole army praised the prince for his wisdom.
Furthermore, those newly appointed officials would not have had the chance to take office if the prince hadn't exposed the Zhejiang-Fujian case, so naturally they were in a hurry to flatter and flatter horses.
Intimidated by Ming Zhan's iron and blood methods, the salaries of soldiers from other places have increased by [-]%.
Returning to the imperial capital this time is not the end of the Zhejiang-Fujian case, but the fact that there are so many officials involved in the case and their positions are so high that the interrogation in Zhejiang-Fujian is not in compliance with the rules.In this way, the prince's car was followed by a string of prison cars, and Ming Zhan returned to the imperial capital in a mighty way.
The only thing that makes Ming Zhan unhappy is that Ruan Hongfei refuses to go back to the imperial capital with Ming Zhan, and he is determined to wait until the day Ming Zhan ascends the throne. He felt somewhat unfilial towards Feng Jingqian.On the way back to wake up, Ming Zhan was deeply ashamed of himself for having such thoughts. He scolded himself a few times as "animals" and sighed secretly, the lower body of a man really determines the upper body!His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Ying Mingru was not exempt from vulgarity. It can be seen that Daji Baosi's death was not just fabricated by people.
All the way back to the imperial capital, Master Wang and several adults took a group of criminals to the Ministry of Punishment to hand over, and Ming Zhan returned to the palace by himself.
Feng Jingqian saw that Ming Zhan's eyebrows and eyes were still the same, and his whole body had added some calm and majestic appearance, and he seemed to have grown taller. He felt very relieved, helped him up and asked, "Is the road still safe?"
"I'm so tired." Ming Zhan sat on the couch with Feng Jingqian, his waist limp on Feng Jingnan's body, and he sighed and said, "Except for seeing my family Feifei, there is nothing happy, and I don't want to be with you. It's easy in the palace."
Feng Jing scolded dryly, "When I went, I wished I could grow wings and fly over, but now I say such tricky words. The country belongs to our family, if there is something to do, you will naturally have to do it on the way, what is there to worry about? .Besides, you are tired because of being made things difficult by that bitch."
Seeing Feng Jinggan mention Ruan Hongfei, Ming Zhan leaned on Feng Jinggan's shoulder and said softly, "This time I went to Feifei's island."
"What island?" Feng Jingqian was more interested in Ruan Hongfei than in the Zhejiang-Fujian case.
"He has more than a dozen islands overseas, occupying an area of the king, and all the official configurations are complete." Ming Zhan said, "There is also a large fleet of ships that are tens of feet long. Zhang wide, extremely majestic."
When Feng Jingqian heard about the prestige of the Chou family, even though he knew Ruan Hongfei's talent, he still couldn't help sighing, "It's true that the sky has no eyes to make this bitch so prosperous."
Ming Zhan coaxed Feng Jing with a smile and said, "Father, don't say that, Feifei will follow me in the future, his property is the dowry, maybe he will be sent here with him."
Hearing this, Feng Jingqian didn't feel very happy. If that bitch was so easy to fool, he wouldn't have to abdicate. He smiled and pointed to Ming Zhan, "I'm looking forward to this day, don't give it to him. Just coax the big country into a betrothal gift?" Patted Ming Zhan on the back, "Go and change clothes, take a shower, and then come and talk, I have something to tell you."
After sending Ming Zhan away, Feng Jingqian summoned Mr. Wang and others to ask about the situation in Zhejiang and Fujian.
Mr. Wang wrote the memorial early and presented it with both hands.When the emperor asked, there was not a single bad word about Ming Zhan.Feng Jingqian was secretly surprised that Mr. Yi Wang's stubborn temperament was subdued by Ming Zhan. This kid really has tricks.
Verbally praised several courtiers, and sent them home to rest.Feng Jingqian was not in a hurry to read the inside story of the Zhejiang-Fujian case, he basically knew everything about it, but Feng Jingqian was interested in a thick list of house confiscations.It's no wonder that these two have a father-son relationship, Ming Zhan has always been anxious about what Feng Jing should do, so he copied the bottom line.
At the beginning, it was 3508 million taels of silver and [-] gold. Seeing these two lines of figures, Feng Jinggan made up his mind and sighed, "Sure enough, it's still Mingzhan." I'm not interested in seeing any gold, silver and jewelry listed below. .
It was already evening after Ming Zhan washed up, and it happened that the palace banquet was to clean up the dust for the prince, and there was another chat and socializing.
Until the morning of the next day, when Yu Shitai brought up Zhao Xi's matter again, Feng Jingqian was startled and forgot to remind Ming Zhan.
Listening to Ersheng, Ming Zhan asked, "Who is this Zhao Xi from? He doesn't sound like a courtier."
Li Tianfu still insisted on the Yongning Hou Mansion, and said, "Zhao Xi was originally a troublemaker in the suburbs of Beijing, because he had some money in his family and his in-laws were powerful in the Yongning Hou Mansion, so he did such lawless things."
Over the head of a piece of official hat, Ming Zhan's eyes fell on Wei Yingjia, and asked, "Marquis Yongning, but you ordered Zhao Xi to rape that scholar?"
Wei Yingjia naturally denied it, Ming Zhan asked Li Tianfu again, "Is the matter of Zhao Xi's rape of a scholar related to Yongning Hou?"
Li Tianfu said, "If it wasn't for the fact that Zhao Xi had a powerful in-law, how would he dare to bully a well-known scholar?"
"Did the Marquis of Yongning ever interfere in the trial of this case?" Seeing that Li Tianfu didn't speak, Ming Zhan felt a little satisfied, and said, "There are three bad relatives in the imperial court, let alone the Marquis of Yongning's mansion? Okay, I know yours." I mean, it’s embarrassing to be a foreign relative. I think even Mr. Li can’t guarantee that his uncle’s cousin will not do anything wrong? Today, Zhao Xi is just a commoner, and his surname is Zhao, and the surname of Yongning Hou is Wei. The Marquis of Yongning didn't know about the matter before, and after he committed the crime, he didn't use his position as the marquis to act for Zhao Xi. In fact, it has nothing to do with the Marquis of Yongning. You asked me to judge in the court, it was nothing more than an item Zhuang Wujian is aimed at Peigong."
What Ming Zhan said clearly made Li Tianfu embarrassed, and Ming Zhan waved his hand, "What's so hard to say, since he raped the scholar and called the Zhao family and the scholar's family together, let one count as one." Looking at Caishikou, Zhao Xi was dragged to Caishikou to be eunuched, and the eunuchs were inserted into the backyard, and he was told to taste it. Then, he was exiled to the west for three thousand miles. The governor of the imperial capital surrounded him. The Zhao family, the Ministry of Household Affairs has a plan to allocate half of the Zhao family's property to the scholar's family as a pension."
Even the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty did not expect His Highness the Crown Prince to casually say such a creative way of dealing with it. For a while, no one spoke.
Ming Zhan was deeply touched, and continued, "I know that there are villains in the world who are good at taking advantage of the situation. For example, if an adult is a high-ranking official in the court, an old family member or a servant or a relative who is not in good standing, it is inevitable Someone is taking advantage of your power to do anything wrong. If the censor hears about it, they will inevitably impeach you for being incapable of managing the family. In fact, you are busy with state affairs in the court every day, and it has nothing to do with you. It has nothing to do with it. It’s not fair to the sufferer. The Marquis of Yongning is my mother’s family, so you don’t have to worry too much. If the prince breaks the law, he is as guilty as the people, let alone my family?”
"I know that each of you has many relatives. We have a good relationship with each other in the court. Now that the relatives in the Yongning Hou Mansion have committed crimes, I will deal with them in this way. When someone commits crimes in your respective families, I will naturally not favor one over the other." Ming Zhan Sighed, "Actually, this has nothing to do with the relatives of the family. Just like people in this world, if the family cannot restrain and cause disasters, let the laws of the country restrain and punish him. Another sage said that the Qi family governs the country and the world. Now It seems that this is really reasonable."
"Although it's just a matter of fact, I don't want any embarrassing things to happen in the family of your aiqing." Ming Zhan smiled modestly, "I have always been kind-hearted and soft-hearted. .”
For some reason, everyone thought at this time that this self-proclaimed "kind-hearted and soft-faced" Crown Prince had almost killed his half-sister as a court staff.Together with his father and sister, even if he can do it well, the uncle's uncle's son, this devious relative, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can only take it to heart!Someone actually wanted to use this to read the prince's jokes, what a mistake!
After lamenting this matter, Ming Zhan talked about the Zhejiang-Fujian case again. Everyone was happy to be relieved from this turbulent lawsuit, and discussed the Zhejiang-Fujian extraordinarily serious corruption case.
After this early court, three results were triggered.Firstly, the adults with dandies in every family opened ancestral halls one after another, not to mention sticking the dandies at home, drinking their lives to stay at home, and breaking their legs if they dared to go out and mess around; Restrain the family servants.Third, Fengjing Qianxuanqin Tianjian chooses an auspicious day for Zen.
As Ruan Hongfei expected, Ming Zhan didn't need to worry about Song Huai's matter, Feng Jing made an imperial decree and it was resolved.At this time, Ma Wei's 1 people were loyal to Ming Zhan, and the general of Fuzhou had been replaced.There is only one Hangzhou general who is always trembling, for fear that he will be implicated anytime.
The ink corruption case in Zhejiang and Fujian occurred in the last years of Emperor Jing, before Emperor Wu ascended the throne.However, at that time, Emperor Wu tried the case in person as a prince, and historians habitually classified this case as an extremely influential case in Emperor Wu's ruling career.
There are so many people involved in this case, and the amount of money involved is huge, needless to say the political influence.Moreover, since this case, Emperor Wu's unique thinking that is different from others has also been seen for the first time.
Ming Zhan ordered Song Huai to be arrested. At this time, Yushitai and the officials of the six ministries were all on the sidelines, so there was no shortage of manpower.However, Ming Zhan turned dark on Ruan Hongfei's face for a long time, not to mention that he made a careless move last night and returned to his seat, leaving nothing left to eat. Ming Zhan only has a tacit understanding with his family Feifei and Feng Jing Just a little unhappy.
If it wasn't for the two calling each other "sluts", and Ming Zhan was quite confident in his beauty, he would have doubted that the two had fallen in love with each other!
Despite this, Ming Zhan was still jealous for a long time, and asked Ruan Hongfei if he had contacted Feng Jingqian in private.
Ruan Hongfei said, "Are you out of your mind? I will communicate with that bitch? When I see his handwriting, I want to go out and vomit, and when I think of his face, I want to slash twice. He was in the palace for a day. I don’t want to go to the imperial capital.”
Ming Zhan felt a little balanced in his heart, and couldn't help but choked Ruan Hongfei, "Don't say that, you pretended to be Wei Ning before, and you didn't want to be a cow in front of him, so you still want to please him?" Ming Zhan suddenly thought of something, and his lips There was a smirk at the corner of his mouth, "That time my father hit the board, who was it?"
Ruan Hongfei said calmly, "Of course it's that idiot Zimin. If it were me, I would have doubled it back to your bitch father in the imperial capital last year."
Ming Zhan was rather disappointed, and joked, "Look at your brothers calling each other sluts, I don't know who is taking advantage of it?"
"It's cheaper for you, son of a bitch, nephew of a bitch."
Ming Zhan cut off Ruan Hongfei's words, kissed him with a stern face, and smiled brightly, "Yeah, it's just right for your bitch brother, bitch uncle, or we are a match made in heaven."
When it comes to the thickness of the skin, Ruan Hongfei also had to be defeated, so he simply dismissed Ming Zhan, "You should go and see Song Huai, so that he won't suffer from prison."
"Let's go together."
"This is a matter for the imperial court. I don't want to get involved." Ruan Hongfei is a sensible person, and power matters are the easiest to create a gap. Although he and Ming Zhan are in love with each other, they are also smart people, so we should be more cautious and manage this relationship carefully. .
Ming Zhan hugged Ruan Hongfei's arm, "Let's go, I believe in you. What's the point of sitting on the throne alone? Are you satisfied with being a massage stick by my side? Let's go, you have to remember to marry Husband, just don’t steal my limelight.”
Although Ruan Hongfei didn't know the meaning of the massage stick, he guessed it roughly, he never competed with Ming Zhan when talking, he poked Ming Zhan's waist with his fingers, and said with a smile, "Could it be that my minister didn't serve His Highness well last night? "
Ming Zhan worked hard last night, right at the waist, almost stabbed to the ground by him, rubbed his waist, his face embarrassed, "You are gentler. Every time you only care about your own refreshment, even though I am amazing, I can't toss around every night." Seeing Ruan Hongfei couldn't suppress the complacency in his eyes, Ming Zhan poured cold water on it, "Besides, at your age, you need to take good care of it."
Ruan Hongfei smiled and pinched Ming Zhan's butt, "Let's speak with facts."
"Get down to business first." Ming Zhan dragged Ruan Hongfei to visit the prison.
Song Huai was also the Governor-General before. Although the conditions in the prison were mediocre, the cleaning was still clean. Without waiting for Ming Zhan to speak, Governor Song directly knelt on the ground, licked three heads, and said in a mournful voice, "The guilty minister has more than enough to die. , all the criminals are willing to confess, I just ask His Highness to forgive me, and don't implicate the family of the criminals."
The series of beheadings of the criminals' immediate family members at least cast a certain shadow in Governor Song's mind.His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has personally admitted that he doesn't care about face that much!
If the superior didn't even care about his face, then what he did would be quite difficult to think about, not to mention Ming Zhan's mind has always been unpredictable, and ordinary people can't guess one or two.
Song Huai is a sensible person. As a first-rank governor, if the crown prince did not intend to deal with him, he would not be sent to prison.So he would rather confess, ask for a favor, and save the lives of his family at least.
"You are a smart man." Ming Zhan sat in the chair, looked at Song Huai's well-maintained face in the past, showing a little tired and haggard, with gray temples, and sighed, "In the two years in Zhejiang and Fujian, the food tax has been stable. growth, and there is no large-scale piracy in the Zhejiang-Fujian sea area. Funding the academy, caring for the orphans, and even your collusion with pirates to do business, I don’t really care about it.”
"It's just that you shouldn't drink soldiers' blood, and besides, you're too courageous." Ming Zhan said softly, "You know exactly what's going on in the armory. Also, as the governor of a province, you should understand, It’s fine to sell those pots and pans to pirates. You have a big heart, and you dare to shoot with knives, guns, arrows and halberds. If this is the case, I can’t tolerate it.”
Knowing Ming Zhan's words, Song Huai knew that he had no life left, so he swayed a few times and nearly fell to the ground, his face was downcast, "The guilty minister owes the trust of the emperor and His Highness."
"I don't want to be deceived."
Such an ordinary sentence, Song Huai's heart trembled when he heard it, and hurriedly said, "The guilty minister knows everything."
The process of interrogating Song Huai went extremely smoothly. Ming Zhan's ruthless name just came out, and other idlers would give him a frown. Besides, Song Huai has the most intuitive and most appropriate feeling for the methods of His Royal Highness, so he really dare not hide anything. .
He summoned Mr. Wang to take notes at the side, and listened to Song Huai talk about how to withhold soldiers' pay, how to falsely report the number of soldiers, how to collude with pirates, the money account books of greedy ink, and the account books of transactions with pirates. It didn't bother the servant of the Ministry of punishment.
When Mr. Wang heard the anger, he couldn't help but roar flatly, "What a thief, you are worthy of the emperor's trust and encouragement!"
Ming Zhan was thinking about something, and suddenly he was startled by Mr. Wang, and frowned, "What are you shouting for? Mr. Song is recruiting. Then go and check Zhou Zhiyuan, Song Xiang and others, and the rest of the criminals Subpoenaed for investigation according to the order."
Mr. Wang stood up and pleaded guilty, "The minister got angry for a moment and offended His Highness, it is a crime of disrespect."
"Okay, just pay attention next time." Ming Zhan sighed, "What's the use of shouting and shouting? He has already committed a crime. Now the most urgent thing is to clean up the Zhejiang and Fujian areas." He glanced at Song Huai Ming Zhan told the guard, "No one is allowed to see Master Song, and don't treat and humiliate him badly. If Master Song makes any mistakes, all of you will have to pay for his life!"
The guards took the lead.
Ming Zhan said to Song Huai again, "Please understand yourself, you are here, some sewage can't be poured on your family. Now I don't think one or two of you will die. Once you die, many things will be unclear .”
Song Huai understood Ming Zhan's meaning of thanking Zhong, thinking of his young gold medal, he spent his whole life in the camp, and ended up with such a result, how much remorse and remorse he felt cannot be described, and wept and kowtowed, "The guilty minister thank Your Highness Long En."
Ming Zhan couldn't help sighing when he went back, Ruan Hongfei said, "I didn't see you like this before with Zheng Zhen." In fact, Ming Zhan has a heart of iron, and he doesn't even move his eyebrows when he kills people. He developed a bodhisattva heart towards Song Huai.
"What's the matter? The man surnamed Zheng acts viciously, but he's just a muddlehead." Ming Zhan pulled Ruan Hongfei to sit down, "Although Song Huai seems to be flattered by clever tricks, let's just see that Zhejiang and Fujian will be peaceful for two years under his rule. In fact, this person can be called a capable minister. I don’t really care about the collusion with pirates, but it’s a taboo for him to smuggle weapons.”
"He is too capable." Ruan Hongfei sneered, "If I say that smart people are dishonest, it is better to call stupid people. At least this stupid people can't think of these tricks."
"Forget it, Song Huai won't survive anyway."
The Governor is finished. According to the Governor’s confession, the Governor’s chief minister will then make a vine from the Hangzhou prefect. It is obvious that spring has begun, but the spring in the south of the Yangtze River is still cold, and people dare not take off their sweaters easily.
Officials in the entire Jiangnan now have much less time to go out to eat and drink, not to mention accepting bribes and grabbing land.All the chief officials asked their staff to take back the account books under their own management. If the accounts were not balanced, they would rather sell some furniture and borrow some foreign accounts to make up for it.
Governor Ren was originally the prince's uncle, but now he has also been sent to prison with Da Liuer.Seeing that the prince has killed his relatives righteously, the others have nothing to complain about.
Only Mrs. Ren sent someone to deliver a letter to her mother's family in the imperial capital with tears in her eyes. She only hoped that her father and younger brother could deal with the prince for a while, for the sake of relatives.
Wei Yingjia received the elder sister's letter, so she couldn't help showing it to her father. The old Yongninghou waved his hand, "It's useless. The new official takes office three times, and the crown prince is about to ascend the throne. This is to clean up officials, even if my old face Take it out, the crown prince will reward you with grace or not. The first is to embarrass him; the second is obviously that we are arrogant, and those who have the face are also shameless."
"Then I'll write back to the eldest sister."
The old Marquis of Yongning closed his fur cloak and sighed, "Although your elder brother-in-law is talented and learned, he is the most courageous and cautious, and also somewhat ambitious. Let me tell you, his temperament is not enough to be a governor. It's over. Now that the crown prince is on a tour to the south, and he is married to our family again, even if he wants to go further, he should show his skills, so that the crown prince may benefit from seeing his relatives. But he is so ignorant, Not only can't share the prince's worries, but there is a case that implicates him."
Wei Yingjia said, "The crown prince and the emperor are not biological father and son after all."
"This is to the point." The old Yongning Hou whispered, "Even his own son, he is also taboo against foreign relatives. For the sake of your seventh sister, the crown prince is only your uncle. Admiral, it can be seen that we are kind to our family. However, if the crown prince cannot ascend the throne for a day, we will live with our heads shrunk. Even if the crown prince ascends the throne, we have to do business in a peaceful manner. Our family is rich and well-off. How long is the future? You need to have an account in your heart."
Wei Yingjia hurriedly responded, and the old Yongning Hou said, "There is no need to write this letter, let alone send people to Jiangnan."
While the father and son were talking, a servant outside sent a message saying, "Master Li Tianfu from Yushitai is here to visit Lord Hou."
Old Yongninghou frowned, "Which Li Tianfu?"
"My lord Wang went to the south of the Yangtze River with the crown prince. Li Tianfu is the censor of Youdu. We have never had any contact with him, so I don't know why he is here?" Wei Yingjia also felt strange.
"I'm afraid it's not a good thing. Go and have a look. Send someone to tell me something."
The old Marquis of Yongning is mature and refined, and he is always three-pointed in thinking about things.After a while, Wei Yingjia came back with a dark face, with a hint of anger in her voice, "Something happened to the Zhao family."
"what happened?"
Speaking of which family doesn't have many bad relatives, the old Yongning Hou runs his family well, and his few sons and daughters are considered good-for-nothing, and those who are not good-for-nothing know how to live in peace.Although there is only one son, Wei Yingjia, he was born young and mature, and he is willing to work hard when he is on an errand, so there is no need for the old Marquis Yongning to work hard.
It's just that Uncle Wei Yingjia's family, originally surnamed Zhao, sold their daughter in a disaster year, but they didn't know that their daughter was blessed and gave birth to a son for the old Marquis of Yongning.
Because the Zhao family can be considered a serious farming family, the old Marquis Yongning helped them with some silver, bought hundreds of acres of land, and established a family business.This was originally for the sake of his son's good looks, but the Zhao family was still in peace. In recent years, thanks to having a nephew of Lord Hou, they have become more and more grown-up.
Wei Yingjia suppressed him a few times, but Fang calmed down a little.Now everyone in the world knows that the crown prince is the nephew of the Yongning Marquis, and that the uncle and grandpa of the crown prince still live in shrinking heads. I don't know anymore.
Speaking of which, Wei Yingjia has only one uncle, Zhao Da, who established his own family business, married a wife and took concubines, and gave birth to three or four sons.However, none of the scholars are successful, and there are disputes between the heirs and concubines, and the fight between chickens and geese is endless.There is also a cousin named Zhao Xizhe, who is a cockfighting dog, causing trouble, and is also a man.
Zhao Xi went out to watch the hawks and walk the dogs, and met the son of a tenant family in his own village, and looked at him right.Although he was born in a poorer family, he is still a decent commoner, and he has already passed the test of being a scholar, so how can he think of Zhao Xi and other idlers.
Zhao Xi has always regarded himself as the cousin of the Marquis of Yongning, not to mention that now the prince's mother's family is the Marquis of Yongning's mansion, he claims to be the prince's cousin, and he insists on using him.In grief and indignation, the little scholar went to the imperial capital to present a case, and was killed by a head-on collision.
Wei Yingjia was busy with errands, and it was this afternoon, so she didn't know for a while.
In the imperial capital, who would really put the Zhao family in their eyes.It's just that people have to consider Yongning Hou's Mansion, the Prince's uncle's house, and the Prince's grandfather is still there.The Zhao family is also the in-laws of the Marquis of Yongning, so when the Zhao family is moved, it is inevitable that the Marquis of Yongning must be notified.
Li Tianfu sighed to Wei Yingjia for a while, to the effect that: now half of the city knows, this matter cannot be concealed, the memorial has been written, and if you need to read a copy tomorrow, you have something in mind Prepare.
The old Yongning Hou slapped the table and said angrily, "This is really rushing to die. Don't intercede with the Zhao family tomorrow morning!" What to worry about.
"Of course I..." Wei Yingjia stomped her feet and said, "What a family of idiots! I told them to behave themselves, but they really don't know what to do to do such an embarrassing thing!"
"You should think about it. If the Zhao family has a future, we should help it." The old Yongninghou said coldly, "Bao'er is still young, and your daughter-in-law is pregnant again. In the future, your children will be in groups... Zhao How does a family like the Zhao family move around! You wipe their ass every time, not only you are affected, but the next generation of children and grandchildren, our generations are dedicated to the Zhao family's lawsuit! When will it be the boss! You look at it It's hard to say that I can go one step further and be disgusted by the Zhao family like this!"
No matter how close the uncle's family is, it is no better than kissing his own father, not to mention that the old Yongninghou hadn't let his son walk around with the Zhao family since he was a child, and Wei Yingjia began to have a headache for the uncle's family when he was a little older.Now that such a thing happened to the Zhao family at such a terrible time, it really embarrassed even the Wei family.
Wei Yingjia lowered her eyes and said, "The Zhao family should learn some lessons. I'm afraid this matter will not be easy to deal with. The crown prince sent officials from two provinces in the south of the Yangtze River. How do you know that there are no villains who want to see the crown prince's jokes?"
The old Marquis of Yongning sighed, "I'm afraid that it's not just...that's all, you just need to remember that it's absolutely difficult for our family to intervene in this matter... People from the Zhao family, don't see them, just let them go."
Sure enough, on the second day, Feng Jingqian temporarily suppressed the matter, and only ordered Zhao Xi to be imprisoned for trial by the Ministry of Criminal Justice, without saying a word.The Marquis of Yongning knew all about his unfinished meaning, and he didn't dare to say a word or take a step.Wei Yingjia only cares about working in the yamen every day, but the Zhao family came to look for her several times, and even guarded the yamen's gate as a rogue.
Because of face, Wei Yingjia had to go to see her.Zhao Da brought his wife, concubine and children and was about to kneel down to his nephew. Before Wei Yingjia could speak, the servants around him had already helped Zhao Da and others up. Zhao Da burst into tears, "I gave birth to this evil beast , I beg my nephew to save him for the sake of his being your cousin."
Wei Yingjia stared coldly at Zhao Da's son for a while, making Zhao Da feel uncomfortable. Wei Yingjia said, "After the incident, Zhao Xi has already been sent to prison, but he has nothing to do in prison. Worry for life!"
Zhao Dafang breathed a sigh of relief, his wife Li choked up and said, "Your cousin has never suffered such a thing, at least let us get some food and clothes to go in."
"You don't need to be busy, he just stayed in prison for a while. That scholar is young and has a bright future, and his life was ruined just like that. If there is a grievance, who will tell him!" Wei Yingjia sneered, "I've already As I said, now that you have a family, a family, and a population, I want you to be safe! But you can’t stand up to other people’s three or five good words, and you can float to the sky with a light bone! Now such a disaster has happened! Please, I’m not an official of the Ministry of Punishment Son, it's not the governor of the imperial capital either! Asking me to intercede, I don't think I have such a big face! Uncle, please do it yourself, and don't ask someone to wait for me at the gate of the yamen!" Seeing that Wei Yingjia was about to leave, Zhao Da hurriedly Grabbing his nephew's sleeve, he said, "It turned out that the two were good friends and gave money to the scholar. I can't blame your cousin for this matter."
"Uncle, you don't need to tell me this, go to the lobby of the Ministry of Punishment and excuse Zhao Xi."
The nephew and uncle were tearing apart, when there was a howl from inside, an old lady in gold and silver, clutching a sandalwood walking stick, holding the little girl's hand, came in tremblingly.Her face was covered with tears because of crying, and she couldn't tell what she looked like.As soon as Zhao Day saw his old lady go out, tears welled up, and he cried, "Good nephew, just look at your grandmother's face."
The old lady Zhao burst into tears, crying like tears, and begged, "Brother Ying, my old lady is old enough to send a white-haired person to a black-haired person? Wouldn't this kill me?"
Not only was Wei Yingjia cold-faced, but her heart was also warm-hearted. Moreover, the Zhao family really didn't show face, and made troubles repeatedly without stopping.Wei Yingjia said indifferently, "Man's fate is predestined, so grandma doesn't need to be sad. If Zhao Xi's fate is great, he will be safe. If his fate should be here, it is also God's will. Grandma doesn't often chant Buddha, and she should know that Buddhism pays attention to cause and effect, doesn't it?" Manpower can be demanded. Besides, my grandmother is devoted to her children and grandchildren. She sold my mother into the Marquis's mansion that year. Later, my father helped my uncle buy a house and land for my sake. No one knows what happened back then, but my grandmother and uncle will definitely remember it. My mother’s surname is Zhao, but I’m not! If my grandmother thinks that our surname Wei is unrighteous, we will return to Luqiao and return to bridge! I wrote a letter of severance in the yamen of the imperial capital’s governor, and now I’m going to save my face. Already!"
The old lady Zhao choked for a moment, and Wei Yingjia forced her to ask, "How is it? Grandma just give me a letter!"
The old lady Zhao looked at her children and grandchildren tremblingly, Zhao Da turned her face away, the old lady Zhao just snapped and passed away.
The Zhao family is so busy, but Ming Zhan settles the case happily in Zhejiang and Fujian. Gods and ghosts are afraid of evil people.
Those who should be ransacked, those who should be sent to prison, until Mingzhan returned to the imperial capital, the officials above the third grade of Zhejiang and Fujian were changed all over the place.Moreover, Ming Zhan was always kind. Originally, the Zhejiang and Fujian soldiers were only paid half of the salary deducted. After the case was over, Ming Zhan made up for the soldiers who had been deducted during Song Huai's administration.In this way, everyone in the whole army praised the prince for his wisdom.
Furthermore, those newly appointed officials would not have had the chance to take office if the prince hadn't exposed the Zhejiang-Fujian case, so naturally they were in a hurry to flatter and flatter horses.
Intimidated by Ming Zhan's iron and blood methods, the salaries of soldiers from other places have increased by [-]%.
Returning to the imperial capital this time is not the end of the Zhejiang-Fujian case, but the fact that there are so many officials involved in the case and their positions are so high that the interrogation in Zhejiang-Fujian is not in compliance with the rules.In this way, the prince's car was followed by a string of prison cars, and Ming Zhan returned to the imperial capital in a mighty way.
The only thing that makes Ming Zhan unhappy is that Ruan Hongfei refuses to go back to the imperial capital with Ming Zhan, and he is determined to wait until the day Ming Zhan ascends the throne. He felt somewhat unfilial towards Feng Jingqian.On the way back to wake up, Ming Zhan was deeply ashamed of himself for having such thoughts. He scolded himself a few times as "animals" and sighed secretly, the lower body of a man really determines the upper body!His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Ying Mingru was not exempt from vulgarity. It can be seen that Daji Baosi's death was not just fabricated by people.
All the way back to the imperial capital, Master Wang and several adults took a group of criminals to the Ministry of Punishment to hand over, and Ming Zhan returned to the palace by himself.
Feng Jingqian saw that Ming Zhan's eyebrows and eyes were still the same, and his whole body had added some calm and majestic appearance, and he seemed to have grown taller. He felt very relieved, helped him up and asked, "Is the road still safe?"
"I'm so tired." Ming Zhan sat on the couch with Feng Jingqian, his waist limp on Feng Jingnan's body, and he sighed and said, "Except for seeing my family Feifei, there is nothing happy, and I don't want to be with you. It's easy in the palace."
Feng Jing scolded dryly, "When I went, I wished I could grow wings and fly over, but now I say such tricky words. The country belongs to our family, if there is something to do, you will naturally have to do it on the way, what is there to worry about? .Besides, you are tired because of being made things difficult by that bitch."
Seeing Feng Jinggan mention Ruan Hongfei, Ming Zhan leaned on Feng Jinggan's shoulder and said softly, "This time I went to Feifei's island."
"What island?" Feng Jingqian was more interested in Ruan Hongfei than in the Zhejiang-Fujian case.
"He has more than a dozen islands overseas, occupying an area of the king, and all the official configurations are complete." Ming Zhan said, "There is also a large fleet of ships that are tens of feet long. Zhang wide, extremely majestic."
When Feng Jingqian heard about the prestige of the Chou family, even though he knew Ruan Hongfei's talent, he still couldn't help sighing, "It's true that the sky has no eyes to make this bitch so prosperous."
Ming Zhan coaxed Feng Jing with a smile and said, "Father, don't say that, Feifei will follow me in the future, his property is the dowry, maybe he will be sent here with him."
Hearing this, Feng Jingqian didn't feel very happy. If that bitch was so easy to fool, he wouldn't have to abdicate. He smiled and pointed to Ming Zhan, "I'm looking forward to this day, don't give it to him. Just coax the big country into a betrothal gift?" Patted Ming Zhan on the back, "Go and change clothes, take a shower, and then come and talk, I have something to tell you."
After sending Ming Zhan away, Feng Jingqian summoned Mr. Wang and others to ask about the situation in Zhejiang and Fujian.
Mr. Wang wrote the memorial early and presented it with both hands.When the emperor asked, there was not a single bad word about Ming Zhan.Feng Jingqian was secretly surprised that Mr. Yi Wang's stubborn temperament was subdued by Ming Zhan. This kid really has tricks.
Verbally praised several courtiers, and sent them home to rest.Feng Jingqian was not in a hurry to read the inside story of the Zhejiang-Fujian case, he basically knew everything about it, but Feng Jingqian was interested in a thick list of house confiscations.It's no wonder that these two have a father-son relationship, Ming Zhan has always been anxious about what Feng Jing should do, so he copied the bottom line.
At the beginning, it was 3508 million taels of silver and [-] gold. Seeing these two lines of figures, Feng Jinggan made up his mind and sighed, "Sure enough, it's still Mingzhan." I'm not interested in seeing any gold, silver and jewelry listed below. .
It was already evening after Ming Zhan washed up, and it happened that the palace banquet was to clean up the dust for the prince, and there was another chat and socializing.
Until the morning of the next day, when Yu Shitai brought up Zhao Xi's matter again, Feng Jingqian was startled and forgot to remind Ming Zhan.
Listening to Ersheng, Ming Zhan asked, "Who is this Zhao Xi from? He doesn't sound like a courtier."
Li Tianfu still insisted on the Yongning Hou Mansion, and said, "Zhao Xi was originally a troublemaker in the suburbs of Beijing, because he had some money in his family and his in-laws were powerful in the Yongning Hou Mansion, so he did such lawless things."
Over the head of a piece of official hat, Ming Zhan's eyes fell on Wei Yingjia, and asked, "Marquis Yongning, but you ordered Zhao Xi to rape that scholar?"
Wei Yingjia naturally denied it, Ming Zhan asked Li Tianfu again, "Is the matter of Zhao Xi's rape of a scholar related to Yongning Hou?"
Li Tianfu said, "If it wasn't for the fact that Zhao Xi had a powerful in-law, how would he dare to bully a well-known scholar?"
"Did the Marquis of Yongning ever interfere in the trial of this case?" Seeing that Li Tianfu didn't speak, Ming Zhan felt a little satisfied, and said, "There are three bad relatives in the imperial court, let alone the Marquis of Yongning's mansion? Okay, I know yours." I mean, it’s embarrassing to be a foreign relative. I think even Mr. Li can’t guarantee that his uncle’s cousin will not do anything wrong? Today, Zhao Xi is just a commoner, and his surname is Zhao, and the surname of Yongning Hou is Wei. The Marquis of Yongning didn't know about the matter before, and after he committed the crime, he didn't use his position as the marquis to act for Zhao Xi. In fact, it has nothing to do with the Marquis of Yongning. You asked me to judge in the court, it was nothing more than an item Zhuang Wujian is aimed at Peigong."
What Ming Zhan said clearly made Li Tianfu embarrassed, and Ming Zhan waved his hand, "What's so hard to say, since he raped the scholar and called the Zhao family and the scholar's family together, let one count as one." Looking at Caishikou, Zhao Xi was dragged to Caishikou to be eunuched, and the eunuchs were inserted into the backyard, and he was told to taste it. Then, he was exiled to the west for three thousand miles. The governor of the imperial capital surrounded him. The Zhao family, the Ministry of Household Affairs has a plan to allocate half of the Zhao family's property to the scholar's family as a pension."
Even the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty did not expect His Highness the Crown Prince to casually say such a creative way of dealing with it. For a while, no one spoke.
Ming Zhan was deeply touched, and continued, "I know that there are villains in the world who are good at taking advantage of the situation. For example, if an adult is a high-ranking official in the court, an old family member or a servant or a relative who is not in good standing, it is inevitable Someone is taking advantage of your power to do anything wrong. If the censor hears about it, they will inevitably impeach you for being incapable of managing the family. In fact, you are busy with state affairs in the court every day, and it has nothing to do with you. It has nothing to do with it. It’s not fair to the sufferer. The Marquis of Yongning is my mother’s family, so you don’t have to worry too much. If the prince breaks the law, he is as guilty as the people, let alone my family?”
"I know that each of you has many relatives. We have a good relationship with each other in the court. Now that the relatives in the Yongning Hou Mansion have committed crimes, I will deal with them in this way. When someone commits crimes in your respective families, I will naturally not favor one over the other." Ming Zhan Sighed, "Actually, this has nothing to do with the relatives of the family. Just like people in this world, if the family cannot restrain and cause disasters, let the laws of the country restrain and punish him. Another sage said that the Qi family governs the country and the world. Now It seems that this is really reasonable."
"Although it's just a matter of fact, I don't want any embarrassing things to happen in the family of your aiqing." Ming Zhan smiled modestly, "I have always been kind-hearted and soft-hearted. .”
