King Ning's mansion is being searched, and there are not many gold and silver treasures, because they have all been used to fight.

Princess Ning and Prince Ning both went out with the army, and King Ning wanted to take them to Nanjing to ascend the throne. The former committed suicide by throwing himself into the water, and the latter was captured together.

As for the Nanchang family members captured by Wang Yangming, they were all the concubines of King Ning and the rest of the sons.

One day, Ji 敩 (xiào) came to thank him.

"I know that Yang Minggong doesn't love money, and he feels that he can't repay it, so I've been helping to inquire about the news these days." Ji Yi arched his hand and said.

Wang Yangming asked, "What's the news?" ”

Ji Yi said in a low voice: "According to Zhao Chengfang, Ning Wangfu has account books, which are the details of the bribes to officials in Beijing in the past ten years. ”

"Understood, I'll send someone to check it." Wang Yangming nodded.

Ji Yi immediately said: "That is the case, I will say goodbye." ”

Ji Yi and Zhao Chengfang were both unlucky, and King Ning heard that Wang Yangming had called for King Qin, so he sent the two to Ji'an to recruit Wang Yangming.

Ji Yi used to serve as the prefect of Nan'an, followed Wang Yangming to suppress bandits and made great contributions, and was promoted by the imperial court to Guangxi as a right to participate in politics, which is equivalent to the mayor directly becoming a vice province with real power. He went home happily from the capital, took his wife and children to Guangxi to take up his post, passed by Nanchang and happened to meet King Ning's birthday, and became a thief at the banquet.

Zhao Chengfang was the deputy envoy of Jiangxi Province, and took the initiative to defect to King Ning to rebel, and was one of King Ning's confidants and civil officials.

King Ning didn't take Wang Yangming seriously at all, and felt that sending these two people to surrender would inevitably allow Wang Yangming to rebel with him.

After Ji Yi saw Wang Yangming, he pointed at Zhao Chengfang and said, "Yangming Gong, please behead this person!" ”

Zhao Chengfang was shocked: "The two armies are fighting, and they don't kill them." ”

Ji Yi said: "This is King Ning's henchman, killing him can shock the morale of King Qin's officers and soldiers!" ”

Wang Yangming did not kill Zhao Chengfang, but just detained this person. He asked Ji Yi again: "Why is the public willing to rebel?" ”

Ji Yi said: "My wife and children are all in the hands of King Ning, so I can only compromise and keep a useful body." Now, I took the initiative to ask Ying to recruit Yang Minggong, which is really a plan for the golden cicada to get out of its shell. My wife and children were placed under house arrest in Nanchang City, and as long as Yang Ming Gong defeated Nanchang, my family could be reunited. This is a matter of benefiting the country and the family! ”

So, Ji Yi told Wang Yangming the detailed military information of the army, including how many soldiers, officers, and warships King Ning had, as well as the guards and troop deployments of each city.

It turned out that after this guy was forced to rebel, he pretended to be very deferential, and took the initiative to give King Ning ideas. In just a few days, he became King Ning's "confidant", and by the way, he frantically inquired about all kinds of information in King Ning's army.

Reader, it's really insidious, King Ning was played around!

The battles between Wang Yangming and King Ning's rebels seemed to be very reckless, but in fact, he was confident, and his confidence came from the military situation reported by Ji Yi. He knew that there were a large number of family members of rebel generals in Nanchang, and he also knew that the source of the rebel army was complex, and he also knew that the generals who defended the city in Nanchang had contradictions with each other.

The seemingly child's play of the counterinsurgency process is all in Wang Yangming's planning.

And Ji Yi, who has made great contributions, because of his experience of rebellion, can only be used to atone for his crimes. But Wang Yangming's retribution this time put Ji Yi in front of him, which immediately made Ji Yi grateful.

Wang Yangming interrogated the eunuchs of Ning Wangfu in detail, and finally found the accounts of bribing officials.

"Bastard!"

Uncle Wang, who has always been very well-cultivated, couldn't help but burst into foul language on the spot after reading the bribery accounts.

Wang Yuan smiled: "It seems that I have caught a lot of big fish." ”

Wang Yangming held back his anger: "Among the cabinet ministers, only Yang Yiqing has confiscated the bribes of King Ning. Among the six Shangshu, only Wang Qiong and Li Xunxue are clean! ”

Li Xunxue used to be an official in Nanjing, but after he was transferred to Beijing, King Ning's rebellion had become apparent, so he may not dare to accept it.

Wang Qiong is very interesting, this person befriended the nobles and nobles, was extremely flattering to the emperor, and was regarded as a traitor by the Qinglius. But this traitor, who has been an official in the capital for many years, did not take a penny from King Ning, but there were not a few people who accepted bribes from Qingliu.

Of course, many ministers are not deeply involved, but they are just New Year's Eve celebrations, weddings and funerals, and they have received gift money from people sent by King Ning, ranging from tens of taels to hundreds of taels at a time.

This doesn't seem to be a violation, it's very common to exchange gifts, and it is a very face-saving thing to receive a gift from the vassal king.

But the premise is that King Ning does not rebel!

Wang Yuan reminded: "If this account book is handed over to the imperial court, I am afraid that Mr. will become the target of public criticism." ”

Wang Yangming asked rhetorically: "Did you burn the bribery account books for the sake of your own future?" ”

Wang Yuan shook his head and said, "What the disciple means is that you don't want to hand it over to the Three Law Divisions, you can directly hand it over to Your Majesty." What else can the three law divisions do if they get the account books? This matter is too wide-ranging, and even His Majesty does not dare to raise a big prison. For example, Jin Gui and Jin Ge Lao, he is 100% loyal to His Majesty, but he still accepts bribes from King Ning. That's not called a bribe at all, it's just a gift money sent to usher, does Your Majesty still want to cure the sin of Jin Ge Lao? Most of the bribe-taking officials are similar to Jin Gelao's situation. ”

Wang Yangming was silent, he was indeed cunning, but there was righteousness in the cunning. The account books of hundreds of officials taking bribes have touched Wang Yangming's bottom line, and he doesn't want to secretly hand them over to the emperor at all.

With Wang Yangming's wisdom, he can already imagine the result.

Once the account book fell into the hands of the emperor, it became the emperor's killer weapon, which was used to bargain with hundreds of officials, and he could do even more ridiculous things in the future. In this way, the emperor became more absurd, and it was difficult for unscrupulous officials to be punished, and there was no benefit to the country or the people.

Wang Yuan stopped talking, waiting for Wang Yangming to make a decision.

Wang Yangming stared at his students and said word by word: "If you are false, if you hand over the accounts to Your Majesty privately, you will be a real minister." I, Wang Shouren, don't be a minister! ”

Wang Yuan reminded: "However, handing it over to the Three Law Divisions is to make it difficult for His Majesty and the hundred officials. If it doesn't help, why bother? ”

"A gentleman does something, and he doesn't do something," Wang Yangming pointed to his heart and then to Wang Yuan's heart, "To conscience, what is conscience?" The unity of knowledge and action, what is the unity of knowledge and action? Have you forgotten what I have given you? ”

Wang Yuan knew that he couldn't persuade anymore, so he arched his hand and said, "Disciple, remember. ”

Wang Yangming said it righteously, but in fact, he has a headache now. Once the account books are handed over to the Sanfa Division, he will probably not be able to return to Beijing, and most of them will be thrown to Nanjing for dinner.

Because of the anger of the people, no one could protect him, including the emperor and Wang Yuan.

Moreover, Wang Yangming will stop his career from now on, and he will be able to be the secretary of the military department in Nanjing-the secretary of the Nanjing military department, and he is the most powerful official in Nanjing, even greater than the secretary of the Nanjing Ministry of Officials.

Wang Yuan was quite frustrated, he originally wanted to take advantage of King Ning's rebellion and push his teacher to the center.

But Wang Yangming's temper attack actually messed up Wang Yuan's plan!

(It's been a busy few days, sorry.) Be sure to make it up! ）
