On the eighth day of March in the fifteenth year of Yongzhi, Guangde Mansion was established.

A big event happened in the city last night, and the behemoth of the Yang family was taken down by the Jinyi Guard, but today's mansion was opened as usual.

After the prefect Li Changshan came to his lobby, he began to issue today's decree.

There are those who urge the county officials below to cultivate, those who approve the officials to start inspecting the river, and those who approve the cases adjudicated by the government officials......

But he sat on the official hat chair, and Qian Shoude, the same acquaintance, entered the lobby and came to Li Changshan.

"Lord Futai, do you know what happened to the Yang family last night?" Qian Shoude asked.

As the parent official in Guangde Mansion, the arrest of the local noble family is naturally enough to attract their attention.

In fact, how could Li Changshan not know about this matter, but he hasn't thought of a countermeasure yet.

But now that Qian Shoude took the initiative to mention this, Li Changshan followed the topic and said: "Is there anything that Jinyiwei has to say?" ”

Qian Shoude said: "The news from the hundred households this morning just told us that the Yang family had been arrested, so we don't have to panic!" ”

Hearing this, Li Changshan put down the pen in his hand and said, "What do you say Zhou Wenzhu wants to do?" ”

Qian Shoude shook his head slightly, and said, "My lord, I'm afraid this is not what Zhou Wenzhu meant. ”

Could it be that Qian Shoude still knows some inside information? Li Changshan was suspicious in his heart, so he asked, "How can you see it?" ”

Qian Shoude said: "I heard from the messenger on duty at the city gate that on the morning of the third day of the third month of March, two brocade guard riders entered the city!" ”

Of course, this is not what Qian Shoude heard from others, but he found out in the past two days, and the arrest of the Lin family made him feel that something was wrong.

I only heard him continue: "Of these two teams, only one is from Guangde Baihu, and the other subordinate guesses that it is from Luyang!" ”

Hearing this, Li Changshan said: "What do you mean is that Jinyiwei made a big move this time, is it the meaning of the Thousand Households in Yongxi?" ”

Qian Shoude nodded and said: "It is very likely that Zhou Wenzhu used to move the three families of Duan Hou Ning, but now he has sent Yang Yuanjiao, a lifter, to prison, who gave him the guts?" ”

In the past, there were always some stories that the Jinyi guards sent the second-grade and third-grade officials to prison, which looked really majestic on the surface.

But every time this happens, it is accompanied by a political storm, and the core of the storm is the struggle between the monarch and the vassals.

As the executor of the emperor's will, the most majestic Jinyi Wei was actually roasted on the stove.

Therefore, when it comes to arresting officials, the officials of Jinyiwei are actually not very enthusiastic, because no one likes to cause trouble for themselves.

Although Yang Yuanjiao is just a person, after all, he has the reputation of a scholar, and Zhou Wenzhu will definitely not move him if he doesn't have a big holiday.

After listening to Qian Shoude's words, Li Changshan also roughly believed that this matter was done by people from Lu Yang's side.

So he asked, "What do you think we should do?" Report the matter to Yongxi Xuezheng? ”

Xuezheng is in charge of a provincial school decree and two examinations for the year and subject, and Yang Yuanjiao, as a lifter, is theoretically also a student of Yongxi Xuezheng today.

Qian Shoude was silent, and only said after a while: "My lord, do you want to report this matter to the governor?" ”

Governor of Yongxi, as the highest administrator on the ground in Yongxi, whether this matter should alarm him is really worth thinking about by Li Changshan.

Because once it is reported to the governor's yamen, there is no room for maneuver, and it is likely to evolve into a confrontation between civil officials and Jinyiwei.

When the time comes, if the governor does not support him, Li Changshan's ending will not be too good, and it will be good to be able to live safely.

The last time he reported to Governor Wang Yuchuan, he was not given to Shen Yue by the other party as a favor.

As soon as he thought of the lieutenant who was now stationed in the mansion, Li Changshan felt very unhappy, and he would definitely find a place in front of Shen Yue if he had the opportunity.

So is this an opportunity now? In the case that many things are not clear, Li Changshan feels that it is better to wait and see.

Just as he was about to veto Qian Shoude's proposal, he saw the general judge Chen Licheng enter the lobby.

"I've seen Lord Futai!" When saluting Li Changshan, Chen Licheng also bowed slightly to Qian Shoude.

The three of them are the core power level in the government, but there are also upper and lower levels.

The prefect Li Changshan was awarded the fifth rank, and the same knowledge Qian Shoude was ranked sixth, and Chen Licheng was sentenced to the sixth rank.

Li Changshan asked, "You are also here for the Yang family?" ”

Chen Licheng couldn't help but be stunned, but seeing that Li Qian and the two were here, he said that the topic of the conversation between the two was probably about Qian Shoude.

Chen Licheng said: "My lord Mingjian, the lower officials are coming for this matter, and Jin Yiwei will send Lin Liu and Yang to prison without saying anything, which is inevitably too rampant!" ”

Chen Licheng's eyebrows fluttered when he spoke, but Li Changshan said calmly: "There are people in the yamen who are in Jinyiwei, aren't you afraid that this word will reach Zhou Wenzhu's ears?" ”

Chen Licheng's heart sank, and then he said: "My lord, if Zhou Wenzhu is bold enough, then let him arrest me!" ”

Li Changshan and Qian Shoude were stunned at the same time, they didn't expect Chen Licheng to have such a big reaction, which was very different from his usual low-key style.

Qian Shoude said: "The Yang family was arrested by Jinyi Wei, and I am discussing countermeasures with Lord Futai, I don't know what Lord Chen thinks about this?" ”

Chen Licheng came with his own way, and only listened to him: "Two adults, Yang Yuanjiao has a great reputation, and he has always had an excellent reputation among students, and Lu Yang also has a clear name!" ”

Speaking of this, Chen Licheng confessed: "The lower officials think that they can let the teachers and students speak out, and at the same time report to the students at this time!" ”

Chen Licheng said two ways, on the one hand, he united the Guangde teachings with the students in the government to speak out and put pressure on the Guangde Hundred Households.

As for reporting this matter to Xuezheng, it is also the opinion set by Li Changshan and Qian Shoude.

So Li Changshan said to Qian Shoude: "Lord Qian, what do you think? ”

Qian Shoude had no opinion on this, and said: "Lord Chen's plan is just right, and the officials admire it!" ”

This is through his own opinion, Chen Licheng was secretly happy in his heart, but he heard Li Changshan say: "Then leave this matter to Lord Chen!" ”

The joy in Chen Licheng's heart disappeared immediately, he came to take advantage of the situation, but Li Changshan's words would make him go home empty-handed.

"My lord, this matter is only handled by the lower officials, I'm afraid it's not appropriate, right?" Chen Licheng said tentatively.

But Li Changshan had already made up his mind, so he said: "It's okay, you can do it in the name of the government!" ”

Qian Shoude, who was on the side, also followed: "This matter is important, and it is none other than your Lord Chen!" ”

Li Changshan wanted to throw the pot at Chen Licheng, Qian Shoude naturally had the same idea, and they could see that this matter was dangerous.

Li Changshan and Qian Shoude both meant this, Chen Licheng had no possibility of refusing, so he could only say: "Since the two adults have arranged it like this, the lower officials can only do their best!" ”

After the three of them talked about the specific regulations, Chen Licheng left to do things first, leaving Li Changshan and Qian Shoude in the lobby.

"My lord, why is Chen Licheng so concerned about this matter?" Qian Shoude wondered.

Li Changshan said in a deep voice: "He has a close relationship with the Yang family, if he doesn't help the Yang family in trouble, who in the city will look up to him?" ”

Chen Licheng was born in poverty, and he has taken many benefits from the Yang family over the years, so it is indeed not surprising that he is dedicated to this matter.

It is precisely because Chen Licheng was born poor that Li Changshan and Qian Shoude have little contact with him, and they still look down on Chen Licheng in essence.

Therefore, this time the Yang family is in trouble, Chen Licheng must take action, and let all the families in the city see that he is doing his best

But Li Changshan and Qian Shoude don't have to do this, they have a harmonious relationship with the various families in Fucheng, and they don't need to pay attention to the opinions of the major families.
