In the capital, it was originally very calm, as before, but with the continuous actions of Jinyiwei and Dongchang's fans in various parts of the capital, from time to time in the streets and alleys of the capital a big man was arrested, and suddenly the whole capital changed all of a sudden.

The entrance of Hanlin Wu Kuan's mansion.

Not long after Wu Kuan's side had just fallen in the morning, Jinyiwei broke into the door and surrounded the entire Wu Mansion, and no one was allowed to enter or leave.

Accompanied by the crying of women and the crying of children, Wu Hanlin was escorted out by two brocade guards wearing flying fish suits.

"I'm Wu Kuan, but I am the Hanlin of the Hanlin Academy, you Qiu Ba, you guys, dare to arrest me, I will definitely join you when I turn around, so that your heads will fall to the ground."

Despite being arrested, Wu Kuan was still struggling, and he shouted loudly while struggling.

"Wu Hanlin, I don't know if we will have our heads on the ground for the time being, your heads are estimated to be moving soon."

The leader of the Jinyi Wei Baihu looked at Wu Kuan and said with a sneer.

These civil officials look down on them the most, they have never looked at them seriously, and even the title is full of contempt.

"People are in charge, people are in charge~"

When Wu Kuan heard this, he couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh, looking like he was iron-clad.

"People are in charge?"

"Where did Wu Hanlin, a noble Hanlin, get so much silver?"

The hundred households led by the Jinyi Wei are like cats and mice, and their eyes are full of playful gods.

It turned out that immediately after everyone, a team of brocade guards came out carrying boxes one by one, and the lid of the box was opened, and it was full of gold, silver and jewelry.

Seeing this box of gold, silver and jewelry, Wu Kuan was suddenly like a deflated balloon, and the whole person instantly lost his spirit and fell down.

……

The mansion of Yushi Xu Ziyuan was also firmly surrounded by a group of Dongchang fans, and the entire Xu Mansion was full of chickens and dogs, women's crying, master's roars, and panicked slaves.

Xu Ziyuan was also taken off his official hat, and his cloak was escorted out by Dongchang Fanzi.

"Your Dongchang is simply lawless, I, Xu Ziyuan, am the imperial history, and I will definitely go to His Majesty to explain everything when I turn back, so that you Dongchang lackeys are better off than dead."

Xu Ziyuan was escorted out, and there were countless people standing outside Xu's mansion, seeing so many ordinary people, Xu Ziyuan seemed to grasp a life-saving straw, and roared angrily while struggling.

"It's you who was arrested, Xu Yushi, in the year of the famine, you colluded with businessmen, stole official grain from official warehouses, and then raised the price of grain, causing the living beings to be poisoned and starved all over the ground, you still have the face to see Your Majesty?"

When the eunuch of Dongchang heard Xu Ziyuan's words, he also sneered, and said Xu Ziyuan's sin very loudly.

"What?"

"This Xu Yushi actually colluded with those merchants, and also stole official grain, and raised the price of grain, I said how could the grain in this capital rise to more than 200 wen a catty, it turned out that these dog officials and businessmen colluded."

When the surrounding people heard this, they were immediately angry.

"Kill this dog officer, kill this dog officer~"

Some time ago, the grain of 200 wen a pound really made the people in the capital miserable, many people were hungry, and even many people starved to death at home.

"I said, this little famine is nothing, it turns out that the grain in the official warehouse of the imperial court has been stolen by these dog officials and merchants."

"Two hundred wen a pound of grain, these people's hearts are black."

"It's good to catch~ It's good to catch~"

"Kill this dog officer, kill this dog officer~"

As someone shouted out, the surrounding people suddenly began to smash rotten eggs, rotten vegetables, small stones, etc. at Xu Ziyuan, who was being held, so that Xu Ziyuan, a dignified imperial history, suddenly became embarrassed, and he could only continue to struggle hard to dodge.

Also behind Xu Ziyuan, a fan from Dongchang walked out carrying boxes of gold and silver, which made the angry crowd keep throwing things at Xu Ziyuan, eager to eat him raw.

……

All over the capital, a minister who had just come down from the early dynasty for a short time was arrested one after another, and the number was as many as dozens, including the imperial history, Hanlin, and doctors, and the lowest were all members of the five grades.

Such a large-scale arrest of officials of the current dynasty has not happened for a long time, and even during the period of Ming Xianzong, it was rare for dozens of ministers of the DPRK and China to be arrested at once, and only a few major cases at the time of the founding of the country could have such a huge movement.

Suddenly, the entire capital was panicked, less noisy and prosperous, and more solemn.

In the palace Yangxin study, Emperor Hongzhi was still discussing national affairs with Liu Jian, Li Dongyang, Zhou Jing, Ma Wensheng, Zhang Mao and others.

"The firing method of cement, Liu Jin has been handed over to the minister, the minister has seen it, cement firing is not difficult, most of the things needed are very common, the cost of this cement is not too high, it can be promoted on a large scale, but for the promotion of cement, the second son has his own opinion."

Emperor Hongzhi and others were naturally discussing the matter of using cement to build the Great Wall and roads if cement was promoted.

When Li Dongyang, Zhou Jing, and Zhang Mao came back, Liu Jin had already handed over the cement manufacturing method, and Zhou Jing, as the head of the household, naturally had to calculate the cost of cement, so as to calculate the cost of cement and see if it was suitable for large-scale production and use.

"Oh, what's the opinion of this son?"

When Emperor Hongzhi heard this, he couldn't help but smile and asked.

"This son believes that although cement is the artifact of the country, the preparation method of this cement is best announced to the world."

Zhou Jing nodded, and then said what Dang and Liu Jin were talking about.

"Published in the world, how can this be, how can everyone know about the artifact of this country?"

When Ma Wensheng heard this, he immediately hurriedly said, and his words also made the people present nod their heads.

Cement is too important, the real artifact of the country, the first thing they think of is to keep this cement method secret, so that they can naturally keep this cement firmly in the hands of the imperial court.

Emperor Hongzhi also thinks like this, he takes cement very seriously, and in his opinion, this method cannot be announced, and must be firmly in his own hands.

"The second son said that this cement is an artifact for the benefit of the country and the people, if it is only in the hands of a few people, it can only benefit a few people, and only by announcing it to the world and letting everyone know about cement, it can truly benefit the people of the world."

"Only when everyone in the world knows how to make cement, and more people produce cement, can we use cement to build more spacious roads."

Zhou Jing looked at Ma Wensheng and smiled slightly, and continued.

When everyone heard this, they thought about it carefully, and they all nodded one after another, and at the same time they were impressed by Liu Jin's heart, such an artifact would actually think of announcing it to the public, instead of hiding it as a family heirloom.

"This law should indeed be published to the world so that more people can benefit."

Liu Jian seemed to have figured out the key points and said very solemnly.

"But if the Tatars also knew how to make this cement, wouldn't it..."

When Ma Wensheng heard this, he immediately said anxiously.

"What if they find out?"

"Are they going to build a tall wall on the grassland? Or will a wide concrete road be built? ”

Li Dongyang naturally knew Liu Jin's thoughts a long time ago, and asked with a smile.

Hearing Li Dongyang's rhetorical question, Ma Wensheng was speechless for a moment, then thought about it, his eyes widened suddenly, and he immediately understood the truth, and said: "Haha, I see, I see, it should indeed be announced to the world so that more people know." ”

Emperor Hongzhi looked at their gods, and his mind was also thinking about it quickly, and soon he also figured out the truth, and immediately couldn't help but smile and said: "I see, so it is, it should indeed be announced to the world." ”

Just when everyone was having a good time, Xiao Jing walked in, holding an excerpt in his hand.

"Your Majesty, the case of the theft of the official warehouse has been basically investigated."

Xiao Jing held the fold with both hands and said very respectfully.

"How fast?"

"How is that possible?"

When Liu Jian, Li Dongyang, Zhou Jing and others heard this, they all widened their eyes one by one, this morning Emperor Hongzhi asked Xiao Jing to investigate this case, and now it has only been a long time, and it is only two hours, and this case has already been investigated.

It's too fast, it's too fast.

However, Liu Jian, Li Dongyang and others are all human spirits, and after a little thought in their minds, they immediately understood, it is estimated that Emperor Hongzhi has already asked Xiao Jing to investigate this case, and everything is already clear, otherwise it is impossible to find out with a little effort.

Liu Jian and Li Dongyang couldn't help but glance at each other, and then looked at the Hongzhi Emperor in front of them, they felt that they were so strange, and they were no longer the Hongzhi Emperor they were familiar with.

In the past, Emperor Hongzhi would discuss anything with them, relying on the power of Wenchen, and definitely not relying on the power of the factory guards like his father, but he didn't expect that he had already asked Xiao Jing to investigate the theft of the official warehouse in advance.

"Well, let's talk about it."

Emperor Hongzhi nodded with satisfaction.

"Yes~"

Xiao Jing said respectfully, then stood up straight, slowly opened the fold, and began to speak slowly.

The cause of the incident is actually very simple, at the beginning, Hu Wanan and others were just the huge interests of the red glass factory, a small mirror was sold for thousands of taels of silver, in a very short period of time, the silver earned by the ancient and modern buildings were all one million taels to calculate.

Such a speed of making money and such a huge profit have naturally made countless people red-eyed, and they want to grab this business into their own hands.

It's just that this glass factory is a partnership between the prince and Liu Jin, and there is no harder backstage in the world, even if Hu Wanan and the others are red-eyed, there is nothing to be done for a while, there is no way at all.

But the famine that occurred in the first half of the year immediately made Hu Wanan and others see the opportunity, plus the ministers in the court wanted to limit the imperial power, control the Hongzhi Emperor and his son, and firmly hold the power of the Ming Dynasty in the hands of their own people, so the two sides also hit it off.

First of all, the grain in the Dezhou warehouse and the Linqing warehouse were emptied, and then the grain in the three northern provinces was shorted, and the grain in the entire three northern provinces was controlled, and then with the help of the famine, not only to take away all the profitable transactions such as the glass factory and the Xishan coal industry, but also to suck the internal money of the Hongzhi Emperor and his son, so as to achieve the purpose of restricting the imperial power.

After all, if the emperor has an empty inner treasury, and the treasury is empty, he can't do anything without money, and he still has to listen to them in the end.

After listening to Xiao Jing's narration from beginning to end, Liu Jian, Li Dongyang, Zhou Jing, Ma Wensheng, Zhang Mao and others all widened their eyes one by one, and Ma Wensheng and Zhang Mao opened their mouths even wider, all of them couldn't believe all this.

"Someone would even think of restricting imperial power~"

"It's really bold, even the prince has calculated it."

Zhang Mao's mind was blank, and he didn't dare to think that there were such bold people in this world.

"I see, so it is, no wonder Your Majesty has changed greatly, there are people who want to target the imperial power, against the crown prince, this licking of the calf is deep, even if Your Majesty is weak, he will become stronger."

"It's really a good calculation, it's a good calculation, I will find out His Majesty's son clearly, and I will calculate everything into it, if it weren't for the sea fish here in Tianjin, maybe they really succeeded."

Li Dongyang thought about it quickly, and instantly figured out everything in it, and he couldn't help but admire.

"No wonder Your Majesty has changed greatly, Your Majesty has always trusted us and other ministers, but I didn't expect such a person to appear among the ministers, thinking of restricting the imperial power, and even the prince calculated it."

Liu Jian couldn't help but shake his head slightly, he now understood why Emperor Hongzhi had such a huge change.

"After investigation, 54 officials of the DPRK and China above the fifth rank participated in it, and other local dignitaries such as the Cao Yun envoy and the Shandong political envoy participated in the ......"

Xiao Jingke ignored Liu Jian, Li Dongyang and the others, but slowly read out the situation of his investigation, and when he said that there were fifty-four ministers in the court who were involved, and there were even local dignitaries involved, everyone couldn't help but look dark.

With so many officials involved, the matters involved are still similar to rebellion, which makes Emperor Hongzhi, a good man, change greatly, and you can imagine what will happen next.

The husband was angry, and the blood was splashed three feet, and the son of heaven was angry, and millions of corpses were ambushed, and the blood was thousands of miles.
