In the study room of Wei Chengbo's Mansion, after listening to Yang Zhen and Qinggele's narration, Lu Jin's eyebrows were unconsciously twisted together, and only after a while did he sneer: "Dongchang's hand this time is really interesting, this is almost a yang conspiracy." ”

The so-called conspiracy is a higher level than ordinary conspiracy. Often, even if you know the other party's intentions, you can't dodge and crack it, and you can only be victimized by it in the end.

In Yang Zhen's opinion, this is the case, and when they heard this, they nodded even more with concern: "What my lord said is that once this matter is handed over to us, it will indeed be difficult to do." Almost all of the charges of those officials are substantiated, and if they are exonerated for it, I am afraid that Your Majesty will not be able to get over it, after all, Dongchang has already reported the relevant matters; But if I really investigate to the end, not only will it be widely implicated, but it will also put my Jinyiwei on the opposite side of the courtiers, which is not a good result. ”

Because of Lu Jin's years of hard work, Jinyiwei's power has not only been greatly strengthened, but also the relationship with the officials of the DPRK and China has also eased a lot, thus creating a good environment for the development of Jinyiwei. If this really becomes an enmity with the courtiers because of this incident, I am afraid that the situation will be ruined for many years.

"And what do you think we should choose?" Lu Zhen was not busy giving his own thoughts, but asked these two subordinates first. He knew very well that he would definitely have to step down from the position of commander of the Jinyi Guard in a few years, and at that time, these two people would have to be in charge of everything in the Suppression Division, and now it was time to consider their judgment of the overall situation.

After the two glanced at each other, Yang Zhen said: "So far, we can only choose the lesser of two evils, and the only way to do business is to give Your Majesty an explanation." Qingler nodded in agreement, which was obviously his opinion.

Indeed, for Jinyiwei, who is not much different from Dongchang and also depends on the imperial power to gain a foothold in the court, the hostility of the courtiers is troublesome, but it can still be discarded compared to the dissatisfaction of the Son of Heaven. Now that the Son of Heaven has the heart to investigate this matter strictly, they naturally have no choice but to follow his will.

Lu Zhen sighed secretly in his heart, in fact, their choice was not wrong, because this was the most beneficial thing for Jin Yiwei. But then, he said: "In this way, there is no difference between us and Dongchang." And it happened to take advantage of the wishes of those guys in Dongchang, and became the enemy of the dynasty in front of them. ”

"Do you have a better idea?" Qingler asked with some hesitation. In his opinion, this is the only option, and there is no way to make things the best of both worlds, to satisfy the Son of Heaven, and not to offend the courtiers.

Lu Zhen nodded his head: "There is no endless road, some things seem to have only one way to choose, but as long as you jump out of this framework, you can see a new world." What you are confined with is your own status as a brocade guard, and you must stand on the opposite side of the courtiers, but in fact, at least in this matter, we can cooperate with the courtiers to find a balance so that everyone is happy. ”

"Does this work?" Yang Zhen's heart suddenly moved, and he hurriedly asked.

"Of course, we alone are not enough. But if you can find the help of the respected old man of the court, things will be much easier. Lu Zhen smiled lightly: "This is also where the East Factory is far inferior to us." They could not coexist peacefully with the Chinese officials of the DPRK. ”

The two subordinates also quickly understood who he was referring to - Yu Qian. It is precisely because of the unbreakable mutual trust between Lu Zhen and Yu Qian that Jin Yiwei can find room for turning around in this matter, so that this conspiracy can be broken and resolved in an instant. The two who wanted to understand this finally breathed a sigh of relief: "My lord, my subordinates understand." ”

"What you have to do next is to carry out the charges of those officials who have been taken and those who have been confessed. However, it must not be expanded to implicate more people. As long as we grasp a certain degree, I think it is still acceptable for the officials of the DPRK and the Central Committee to do this. Lu Zhen told them again with a solemn expression. The two hurriedly received their orders, and then hurried away.

And Lu Zhen did not continue to stay in the house, and immediately rushed to Yu Qian's house by car. Although it was late at this time and the curfew had been launched in the capital, Uncle Lu still did not delay at all.

Approaching the end of the year, such a thing suddenly happened, which naturally made the Manchu officials feel panicked. Especially when the news spread that Jinyiwei had arrested many officials from the place, everyone became more and more panicked, after all, no one was clean.

The Ming Dynasty was somewhat harsh to officials because of Emperor Taizu's own origin, so compared with the previous dynasty, the officials of this dynasty were pressed to the lowest.

As a result, since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, corrupt officials have emerged in an endless stream. Even if Emperor Taizu repeatedly raised a big prison and killed batch after batch of corrupt officials, the problem was still not solved. Whether it is the court or the locality, those who should be greedy are still greedy, but their actions are more secretive and their means are more clever.

After Taizu died and the latecomers ascended the throne, the situation became more and more serious. Even if he is as eloquent as Emperor Taizong Yongle, he can't do anything in the face of this situation, he can't kill all the officials who worked in the Manchu Dynasty, right? Then you will really be alone, so you can only choose to turn a blind eye. As for the Son of Heaven in the back, he is naturally even worse than the founding father and son.

As a result, with the passage of time, the behavior of officials is becoming more and more serious, and in today's prosperous world, there is no official who lives on that little bit of death, and they can always come up with various ways to obtain benefits from the people or from the public, fill their own pockets, and make their lives more comfortable.

This has almost become an open secret of the Great Tomorrow, and the only one who has been kept in the dark may be the Son of Heaven who is in the depths of the Forbidden Palace. And now, someone actually wants to expose all this, which naturally makes all the officials feel panicked, but there is nothing they can do.

After waiting for two days with trepidation, a result was quickly announced by Jinyiwei - Feng Yong and Zhang Kun, the heads of the household department, and many officials in charge of finance in Zhejiang, Shandong and other places embezzled a huge amount of 2 million public funds. Now the evidence has been ascertained, and the evidence is conclusive!

In the end, only a dozen officials were found to be greedy for public money, which really surprised the whole dynasty, but it also made them really relieved, and finally Jinyiwei did not do such a thing as copying melons.

They didn't know that the reason why they could have such a result was the result of mutual consultation and compromise between Lu Jin, Yu Qian and others.

After Lu Zhen found Yu Qian overnight, the two had a good discussion, and finally made the decision to sacrifice a small number of people to protect the overall situation of the entire court.

So on the one hand, Jin Yiwei only interrogated many officials who were arrested, forcing them to bear all the charges without implicating more people. On the other hand, Yu Qian and other important ministers of the DPRK and China began to cooperate with each other to quickly cover up the previous problems to prevent any further flaws. If there is a person who embezzles the public funds of a certain yamen, he immediately returns the money in full, and if there is an incorrect account, he quickly settles the account.

It can be said that when it should have been the most loose before the Chinese New Year, many officials inside and outside the capital were busy and tried their best to make up for the troubles.

However, this effort was not in vain, and under the hard work of these days, the accounts that could have been seen to be problematic after a little investigation became tight again, and at the same time, those officials who had already been arrested also knew that they had been conclusively guilty, so they also tried their best to bear all the charges, and did not bite out more relevant colleagues as Dongchang hoped.

After everything was completed, it was the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, and Lu Zhen sent the file of this case to the palace along with his congratulatory sheet.

After Zhu Qiyu watched the final result of the entire case, his eyes were fixed on Lu Jin, and then he spoke: "Lu Qing is really good, and he has clearly investigated such an intricate corruption case in a short period of time. What is particularly gratifying is that the hundreds of officials in the DPRK and China have no objection to this, which makes me admire your talent and ability. ”

Lu Zhen only felt a chill in his heart, this is not good. But now I can only bite the bullet: "Your Majesty has praised it falsely." The reason why the minister was able to investigate the case so smoothly this time is thanks to the dedication of Jinyiwei's subordinates and others, plus the efforts of Dongchang people and others to find out the truth of the case before......"

"Yes, Dongchang has indeed done its best, and the prisoners you have played here are almost no different from the ones they reported in the morning. It's really in vain. The emperor stared at him thoughtfully: "But you have all worked hard after all, and I have already remembered the credit for this time, so you can step aside." ”

Seeing that the emperor didn't dig deeper, Lu Zhen finally breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly retreated. Although he knew that the end of the matter would definitely make the Son of Heaven very dissatisfied, it was the best result for the entire imperial court.

Of course, corrupt officials must be severely punished, but they must pay attention to individuality. If you ignore the sudden rise of the prison, the world will be uneasy, and it will only be counterproductive.

In fact, Zhu Qiyu also understood this, so he temporarily admitted Lu Jin's self-made assertion and did not pursue it again. Of course, another reason is that it is now the end of the year, and no matter who wants to have a peaceful New Year, they naturally don't want to have more trouble.

As a result, a big storm that is very likely to turn the world upside down was skillfully resolved by Lu Jin, and he really lifted his weight lightly......
