A few miles outside Yuncheng, Shandong, there is a large camp of officers and soldiers, with flags covering the sun, looking at it from afar, people are shouting horses and neighing, and there are cavalry galloping out.

Yang Zhaoji ordered 300 personal soldiers, each armed with knives and guns, to supervise the drill, and the subordinate soldiers ran back and forth.

Since arriving in Yuncheng, Yang Zhaoji has always had a heavy burden on his shoulders.

After the disaster, he helped the shattered local government to maintain order, and from time to time he had to send troops and horses to assist the superintendent to investigate the White Lotus Sect.

Anyway, on the land of Qilu, there is his Yang Dashuai everywhere.

Yang Zhaoji rode on his horse, squinting at the generals in front of him, and the overwhelmed expressions of the soldiers made him feel slightly dissatisfied in his heart.

"Wait for you to cheer up and practice, don't be lazy and slippery, be caught by this commander, blame the military staff, and expel the officers and soldiers!"

"Victory! Win! ”

When the words landed, all the soldiers raised their arms and shouted, running back and forth with knives and guns in hand, and in the school field, there was smoke and dust all over the place, horses' hooves rolling, and the sound of cannons was like thunder.

At this time, a red-clothed and brocade-clad lieutenant rushed from the camp gate, and the guards seemed to be used to it for a long time, and they did not stop it.

The lieutenant presented a letterhead to the lieutenant general, and immediately turned and left.

After all, in this important military camp, he is always bad to be seen.

Yang Zhaoji read the letter from the deputy general's hand, and said with a smile: "This Xu Xianchun is really not much smarter than him when he took office. ”

Yang Yufan saw that the army had just returned, and when he heard the words, he asked:

"Father, what is Xu Xianchun looking for you this time?"

"Look for yourself."

Yang Yufan nodded, that is, he took the letter and looked at it carefully.

In the letter, Xu Xianchun said that the local superintendent of Jinyiwei had found out that the White Lotus Sect was plotting to rebel and launching riots in Jingzhou, Jizhen, and Yuncheng.

Because of proper disposal and careful arrangement.

Wang Haoxian of Jingzhou and Yu Hongzhi of Jizhou, the two leaders of the White Lotus Sect, were arrested in advance by Tian Ergeng and Xu Yingyuan, the governors of Jinyi Weidu, and sent to Jingshi.

Only this Shandong Yuncheng Xu Hongru, Xu Xianchun did not act rashly.

The meaning of the letter is that Xu Xianchun claimed that he had led the Jinyi Guard to control the White Lotus Sect's rebellion in Shandong, and although there were more parties in the rest of the country, the threat was generally not great.

Yang Zhaoji is in Yuncheng, once Xu Hongru rebels, the imperial court is bound to be close to the principle and appoint him to quell the chaos and suppress the thieves.

Get the big thing!

People like Yang Zhaoji actually have no shortage of military merits, but his son Yang Yufan has just joined the army, and this military exploit is like charcoal in the snow.

Of course, Shandong has just experienced a great earthquake, and the people will be even more miserable when the White Lotus Demon is in turmoil, but in the prosperity of the Yang family's generals, these can be put back.

In this era, the most worthless thing is the lives of ordinary people.

Even if it is a marshal like Yang Zhaoji, he will basically turn a blind eye to this kind of matter, after all, this is a good thing for the imperial court and for civil officials and generals everywhere.

"Order, evacuate Yuncheng for thirty miles to train troops." Yang Zhaoji exhaled softly, his gaze swept over Yang Yufan, looked away, and said leisurely after giving the order:

"My son, remember, for the general, not the kindness of a woman!"

Yang Yufan couldn't bear it in his eyes, and said:

"Son, remember!"

......

Xu Xianchun ran the White Lotus Sect in Shandong, which made it prosperous, and Wei Zhongxian naturally cared about this opponent.

But right now, he is devoting himself to another major matter - Wang Wenyan's case!

It's time to close this big case that has been delayed so far!

On March 16, the second year of the Apocalypse, Wang Wenyan was finally escorted to Beijing from his hometown by Dongchang Fanqi, and Wei Zhongxian rubbed his hands and "took it to Dongchang for questioning".

Fu Yingxing, who was the head of the East Factory at the time, was not polite to this master, and when he came up, he was whipped, and he came down first.

Then in the prison, Fu Yingxing tortured Wang Wenyan again and asked him six times, planning to use all kinds of punishments again.

Like Yang Lian and Gao Panlong, although hateful, they are also respectable.

Even in the East Factory, the fans can't bend them into tricks, and when it comes to the toughness of these two, the fans are all capitalized clothes!

But right now, how can this Wang Wenyan be worth working so hard?

Seeing the bloody torture instrument being brought up, thinking of this thing caught on his body, Wang Wenyan couldn't eat it, so he immediately confessed to block the gun for himself.

This is the local right-hand man of the Donglin Party - Li Ruoxing, the governor of Hexi.

In order to seek the high position of this governor, Li Ruoxing spent 5,000 taels of silver to trust relations everywhere, and this is still one of them.

Wei Zhongxian's focus is different from ordinary people.

Five thousand taels of silver, Li Ruolian can't save it for a few years without eating or drinking, where did such a large sum of silver come from, do you have to check it carefully?

The next day, Zhu Youxiao looked at Wei Zhongxian who was smiling in front of him, and looked at the inscription book on the imperial case, and knew that Lao Wei was going to do something big.

Pick up the question book and look at it, sure enough.

Cabinet Minister Wei Guangwei received Wei Zhongxian's instructions to impeach Henan Governor Li Ruoxing for two major crimes of accepting bribes and offering bribes, and Dongchang got Wang Wenyan's confession, which was placed next to him.

Li Ruoxing's matter, this directly gave Wei Zhongxian an understatement of the verdict.

Zhu Youxiao was thoughtful, and there was nothing to say, the matter had come to this point, and the confession was there, so it seemed that he had to agree?

Thinking of this, Zhu Youxiao glanced at Wei Zhongxian, the old eunuch also slipped his head, and noticed that the emperor's gaze was coming, so he directly lowered his eyes and pretended to be stupid.

Since Wei Zhongxian wants to make a move, Zhu Youxiao is also happy to let him stir and stir up, and then put forward the imperial approval:

"Li Ruoxing, the governor of Hexi, cut his nationality to the people, investigated and dealt with the East Factory, and all dirty private money was investigated and put into the internal treasury."

It's so much silver, and there's still a broken mouth, why not.

After this stubble, Wei Zhongxian also went to greet Fu Yingxing, telling him not to be satisfied with finding out a Li Ruoxing, but to catch a big fish from Wang Wenyan's mouth.

Fu Yingxing is very clear about the origin of the entire Wang Wenyan case, and he also knows what the final result of his uncle, who is the commander of Dongchang, wants.

The next step for Fu Yingxing was to continue to torture and force Wang Wenyan to blame Liu Zongzhou, Zuo Guangdou and other important ministers of Donglin.

However, Wang Wenyan, who summoned Li Ruoxing very happily, became an iron-clad man at this time.

No matter how Fu Yingxing coerced and lured, Wang Wenyan closed his lips tightly and had nothing to say.

For a while, Fu Yingxing had nowhere to start.

Wei Zhongxian was also surprised when he heard this.

But he was prepared, and immediately decided to punish Liu Zongzhou and Zuo Guangdou only with the evidence of the palace transfer case.

According to Wei Zhongxian's meaning, it is really not possible, so Wang Wenyan's confession is not used, and Liu Zongzhou and Zuo Guangdou are only convicted of colluding inside and outside to control the transfer of the palace.

Of course, because there is no ironclad evidence, it will take a lot of effort to really take down the two of them, and this case, I am afraid that it will not end easily, this is not the result that the emperor wants.

But today's eunuchs are also capable.

Cabinet Minister Wei Guangwei heard the news that Wang Wenyan would not be killed, so he went to the door the next day to place it and gave Wei Zhongxian a suggestion.

He put down the teacup, his face showed a ruthless face, and said:

"The crime is to move the palace, first, the days are long, there is no evidence to speak of, and the second is to use strong words and reason, and dirty to lawlessness."

"If Liu Zongzhou and Zuo Guangdou are guilty of framing Xiong Tingbi, then the closure of the territory is serious, and killing him can be justified."

Wei Zhongxian touched his chin, his eyes lit up, and he felt that it was feasible.

Didn't they impeach Xiong Tingbi badly at the beginning, and this time the governor gave them a hand to fight back against the impeachment.

Immediately, Wei Zhongxian dictated a letter and ordered someone to send it to Shenyang quickly to ask Xiong Tingbi's opinion on Liaodongjing Road.

If this bear barbarian is willing, Zuo Guangdou and Liu Zongzhou will definitely die!
