After hearing this, Lu Chen took the case and was furious.

He immediately ordered Liang Xiao to escort Ding Rui back to the capital, and the secret guard immediately began to investigate the matter! Not only should the county guard of Nanyang County be beheaded for public display, but also the officials of each county should be thoroughly verified on this matter!

In the end, Lu Chen also released a sentence to Liang Xiao: All local officials, once they find that there were corrupt and fraudulent people in the last grain and grass incident, after verification, no matter how strong their background is and how noble their status is, they will all be killed!

On the other hand, after the retreat of Zhang's army, Lu Chen also began to lead his army back to the capital.

Next, it is the trial of Ding Rui's case, for Ding Rui's various crimes, Lu Chen didn't even bother to try it, and he didn't bother to ask, but after just a little formality, he directly condemned it to a car crack and nine clans.

Later, he ordered Liu Yuan to write a letter of Ding Rui's guilt to tell the world.

And after Liu Yuan received this errand, he pondered and racked his brains, and stayed in the study for a whole night, what he didn't have, as long as it was a heinous and heinous thing, it was all put on Ding Rui's head by him, and he listed more than 30 of his crimes in one go.

After Ding Rui's various crimes were announced to the world, he used a prisoner car to pull Ding Rui and his people to the execution ground, this time in Fengzhou City, thousands of people were empty, and where Ding Rui passed, it can only be described as miserable, if it weren't for the soldiers in charge of escorting him with a halberd to pick up the rotten vegetables on his head, it is estimated that Ding Rui would be suffocated to death......

After Ding Rui was torn apart, it also announced that the wind and civil strife were completely calmed down.

At this time, the secret guard was responsible for verifying the last grain and grass corruption case, and there was great progress.

What shocked Lu Chen was that he didn't know if he didn't investigate, and after a check, officials from all over the country fell one after another, and the number of officials involved in the case and the wide range of implications were simply staggering!

"Moth! These moths of the Windy Country! Examine! Check it out for me! It must be thoroughly investigated! I can endure other things, but my people, who cut down on food and clothing, and donate supplies to our army, are used by these moths for personal pleasure! It just doesn't make sense! In this matter, this official will not be soft! Once it is verified that it is related to this case, it will be beheaded immediately! ”

Lu Chen shouted at Liang Xiao, who was kneeling below, and at this time, there was boundless anger in his heart, and he already had three points of royal power.

"No!" Liang Xiao lowered his head tightly and hurriedly responded, under Lu Chen's monstrous anger, he knelt underneath, and at some point, his back was soaked with cold sweat.

And this time, with Lu Chen's anger, the secret guards were all dispatched, and they all conducted open and secret inspections of local officials in various counties, and finally inspected one county-level official in Zhengsanpin, twenty-one county-level officials, and officials of all sizes in counties and counties without grades, and there were countless people, as many as more than 100 people.

Under Lu Chen's authority, the secret guard is in charge of the case, once the evidence is conclusive, once it is verified, the officials involved in the case will be forcibly taken away by the secret guard personnel immediately.

At that time, there were still many local officials who didn't know about the existence of the secret guards, and at first there were several county guards who tried to resist, but they didn't even have room to fight back, and they were directly killed by the secret guards on the spot.

And the name of the dark guard, after this big case, immediately made officials at all levels of the Wind Country remember it, no matter how big or small the official position, people shy away from the dark guard, especially its leader Liang Xiao, who is like avoiding the plague god.

Because everyone at all levels knows that the secret guard can be said to be able to go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, once he finds him one day, it will definitely not be a good thing!

Of course, this is only manifested in the officialdom of the Wind Country, and among the common people, the name of the secret guard will never appear among the people.

After this major corruption case, dozens of counties in the Wind Country began to lack officials, and at this time, the civil officials who were idle under Lu Chen's account came in handy, and they were sent by Lu Chen to serve as county guards in various counties.

At the same time, the imperial capital Yujing.

The main hall of the imperial palace, the place of the empire, the glazed jade Jinluan Palace, its luxury is far from being comparable to that of the various vassal states.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live~~~" In the main hall, the ministers knelt and bowed.

"Zhongqing is flat." Emperor Yang Xuan was dressed in a grand costume and sat on a dragon chair made of pure gold. On his head, with a crown of 12 yuan, Han is used with 12 colorful silk ropes, each rope runs through 12 strings of jade beads, according to the order of Zhu, white, cang, yellow, Xuan, each jade is separated by one inch, each is 12 inches long, extremely exquisite.

After all the ministers got up, Yang Xuan leaned lazily on the dragon chair, and said in a tired voice: "Zhongqing has something to play, let's retreat if I have nothing to do, I am a little tired today." ”

For the emperor's lazy appearance every morning, the ministers of the empire seem to have long been accustomed to it, and Taifu Zhang Sidong walked out of the train, Shi Li said: "Minister, there is a book." ”

"Zhang Aiqing has something to play, let's talk about it quickly." Yang Xuan leaned there with his hands on his head and leaned there without even lifting his eyelids.

Zhang Sidong said: "I don't know if Your Majesty has heard about the turmoil in the wind. ”

"Windy Country?" Yang Xuan asked, "Isn't it the northwest frontier of the empire?" I have also heard a little about this matter, saying that it is the left minister Ding Rui, who killed his king and usurped his country, which led to chaos in the country of Feng. ”

"That's right, Your Majesty, after Ding Rui usurped the country, the rebellion in the Wind Country lasted for nearly two years, and Lu Chen, the general of Zhenbei in his country, raised troops to rebel, and led the army to break through the wind capital a month ago and recovered the counties of the wind country."

Speaking of this, Zhang Sidong paused, and then said: "The minister thinks that the country cannot be without a king for a day, and the family cannot be without an owner for a day. Although the Wind Country is located on the border of the empire, after all, it is still the land of the Central Plains, belonging to the empire, Your Majesty is the king of the world, and the current wind and civil strife have subsided, Your Majesty should be in the name of the Son of Heaven, conferring the title of Lu Chen as the Wind King, and ruling the Wind Country. ”

"Trouble, the Wind Country is thousands of miles away from Yujing, and the envoys come and go, I don't know how long it will take, and besides, what kind of Zhenbei general Lu Chen did you just say, what kind of official residence is this person? What kind of title? Is it a hereditary magnate in the Wind Country? Yang Xuan said impatiently.

"Your Majesty, this person's official residence is of three grades, it seems to be ...... It doesn't seem to have a knighthood. Zhang Sidong returned.

Hearing this, Yang Xuan immediately said angrily: "Ridiculous, how can a third-grade general of a small principality be granted the throne, although I have no interest in the affairs of the Wind Country, but I can't arbitrarily appoint the prince, in this way, where is the majesty of the Son of Heaven?" ”

As soon as Yang Xuan's words were finished, there were also a few sarcastic sneers among the imperial ministers.

Seeing this, Zhang Sidong said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty doesn't know, although Lu Chen is only a third-grade official, but the entire lost territory of the Wind Country was recovered by his army, and this person's reputation in the Wind Country is now unmatched......
