Yan Hui, Wang Qiang and others, because Zhang Yandeng and Feng Ying used their families as a threat, hesitated in their hearts.

Xiao Ming frowned when he saw this, and gestured to Wang Guoxing with his eyes, as the chief judge of this case, it was difficult for him to speak, but Wang Guoxing, who was a fellow of Jinyiwei, was different.

I saw Wang Guoxing sneering: "This official has always been eager to report, and if you enter my Beizhen Fusi Prison, don't think about going out!" ”

Wang Guoxing's threat put Yan Hui and others in a dilemma. At this moment, they really began to regret it in their hearts, they should not have fallen into death for the sake of small profits, not to mention, but also to harm their families.

Several people looked at each other, and their hearts were like ashes, no one on the two sides could afford to offend a mere businessman, and they didn't know where to go at the moment.

Suddenly, a path spread out among the crowd of onlookers outside, and Yang Su walked into the hall with Wang Chengen in civilian clothes.

Xiao Ming was surprised and happy when he saw the emperor coming in person, he was surprised that he couldn't do a good job, and he was so tired that the emperor came to the scene in person, and he was happy that the emperor was present, Zhang Yandeng, Feng Ying and others didn't want to make waves again.

Zhang Yandeng, Feng Ying, and the noble officials present did not look so good.

Everyone got up one after another, walked to the front of the hall, knelt down and saluted, "Minister, see the emperor." ”

Thousands of people outside also shouted long live together, with Yang Su's prestige among the people, especially in the hearts of the people in the capital, has reached a peak, and now seeing the emperor personally come to make decisions for them makes all the people excited.

Yang Su walked straight over, stood directly on the high platform, glanced at the ministers kneeling in the hall, his eyes stayed on Feng Ying and Zhang Yandeng for a long time, and said to Yan Hui with a cold snort: "Today's trial of the three divisions, I watched it with the people outside, and I know all the guilt and responsibility, and you dare to disobey my will, and the crime cannot be punished!" But the sin is not as good as the family, if you can repay the main messenger behind the scenes, I can protect the family and other family members safely! ”

With Yang Su's words, Yan Hui no longer hesitated and said, "Yan Hui, the grass people, is the president of the rice bank in the capital, and under the instruction of Zhu Chunchen, the prince of Chengguo, he connected all the rice merchants in the capital to raise the price of grain in Jincheng!" ”

Yang Su nodded, looking at the group of nobles kneeling in front of the hall, their eyes were full of murderous intent, this group of nobles who were resting with the country were no worse than civil officials in their ability to dig the foot of their own walls.

Yang Su had not yet settled the account with them before the Jin merchants, and he didn't notice that they had made such a big deal for a while. This matter seems to be led by the Jiangnan gentry, first following the hatred between the Dragon Clan and the Ming Dynasty, contacting the Dragon King of the Huai River to overturn Wu Ruyi's grain ship.

However, the matter of raising the price of grain in the capital is indispensable to the hands and feet of this group of nobles, you must know that in just a few days, this group of nobles has made great efforts to transport so much grain to the capital.

They don't have much of anything, but they have a lot of land inherited from their respective mansions, and they are all near the capital, and they have a lot of food hoarded at home, and they are all ready to make a windfall with this time.

In Yang Su's eyes, Xungui who has no soldiers and no power is just a dry bone in the pig, and it is not worth Yang Su to kill Yang Shu at this moment, he is only ready to clean up Zhu Chunchen alone. The four nobles, led by the British Gong Zhang family and the Cheng Guo Gong Zhu family, after all, they are in the capital.

The Xu family of the Duke of Wei and the Duke of Qianguo are also very powerful, but the Duke of Wei and the Xu family guard Nanjing, and the Mu family of the Duke of Qian guards Yunnan for generations, but they are far away from the political center of the Ming Dynasty.

Yang Su cleaned up Zhu Chunchen today, and if he wants to rectify the forbidden army in the future, there will be one less obstacle, otherwise Zhu Chunchen, the governor of the capital, the governor of the Chinese army, and the right governor of the capital, will not be at ease.

"Jin Yiwei went to the Chengguo Mansion and put Zhu Chunchen in prison."

Zhang Yandeng anxiously stopped: "The emperor can't!" How could the prisoner Yan Hui's own words be directly sent to prison! ”

Yan Hui immediately retorted, "Your Majesty, the grass people have evidence, and the grass people have account books in their homes, which record the amount and time of gifts to the Chengguo Mansion over the years!" ”

Yang Su nodded, "Jin Yiwei went to Yan to get the account book at home and see if it was true." ”

All the noble officials present were eager to kill Yan Hui with their eyes at this moment, but in front of Yang Su, no one dared to say anything and was silent as if they were resigned to their fate.

Yang Su suddenly sighed, "Zhu Neng, the Duke of Chengguo, followed Chengzu to make great contributions during the Jing Dynasty, and I have a favor with my Zhu family!" Although Zhu Chunchen made a big mistake this time, I still can't bear it, and I don't want to cut off Zhu Neng's sacrifice, and I plan to choose one person from the Zhu family to inherit the position of Chengguogong! ”

"The Emperor Shengming!" The nobles on the side were overjoyed when they saw this, and only punished Zhu Chunchen alone, and did not even deprive them of the title of Duke of Chengguo, and they were still the same for Zhu Chunchen, Yang Su's words were undoubtedly not to investigate their faults.

Yan Hui had already become a leading bird, and Wang Qiang and Han Li also stood up at this moment and reported their behind-the-scenes instigators.

"Emperor Qiqi, the grass people and others were also persecuted, it was Zhang Yandeng, the imperial history of the left capital, who forced us to commit this incident, although there was no evidence left in the grass people's house, but the grass people gave Zhang Yandeng spiritual jewelry, and the grass people still remember what they sent."

When Zhang Yandeng heard this, he collapsed to the ground weakly, Uncle Yang glanced at Zhang Yandeng with disdain, waved his hand directly, and ordered Jinyiwei to take him away!

After cleaning up Zhang Yandeng, Yang Su was still not satisfied, and looked at Feng Ying, whose face was pale, "Feng Yingru is the secretary of the criminal department, but he can't enforce the law impartially, and he intends to shield Zhang Yandeng, and he is not suitable to serve as the secretary of the criminal department anymore, you can resign!" ”

Feng Ying took off his official hat tremblingly and put it on the ground, knelt down and saluted, "Ministers obey the order, thank you!"

”

Under the deliberate connivance of Yang Su, the civil and military officials made this matter known to everyone, Yang Su even instructed Ming Pao to continue to publicize, the people of the capital have long hated the people who raise the price of grain, and the rice merchants have long been discredited and punished by everyone, causing public indignation, Zhang Yandeng jumped into the big pit he dug, he will die, no one can save him, and with the anger of the people, Yang Su will clean up another Feng Ying, it can't be simpler!

Then Yang Su prepared to leave and handed over the matter to Xiao Ming to deal with. The people outside gathered more and more, Yang Su was unwilling to stay for a long time again, he still had to keep a certain distance from the people, too close would make people lose their awe.

Yan Hui, Wang Qiang and others gritted their teeth when they saw this, and asked Yang Su: "Caomin and others know that they are deeply guilty, and they dare not ask the emperor for forgiveness, they only ask the emperor to pardon our family." ”

Yang Su had spoken in front of the people of the capital before, so he naturally would not break his word and gain weight, "If you are guilty of meritorious service, I will pardon your family and other family members, and leave a part of the family property for your family after the house is raided." ”

Yan Hui and the others hurriedly knelt down to Yang Su and kowtowed to thank him!

Yang Su took Wang Chengen and left quietly, Xiao Ming immediately announced the result to the people in the court, "The case of the rice merchants in the capital who raised the price of grain was closed after being tried by the saint himself, and the mastermind behind the scenes, Zhu Chunchen, was deprived of the title of Duke of Chengguo and sent to prison for questioning, Zhang Yandeng, the imperial history of the left capital, was dismissed and investigated, Yan Hui, the chairman of the rice bank, and Wang Qiang, Han Li and others were imprisoned and beheaded after the autumn!" ”

The people present all cheered long live, praised the emperor and took care of the people.

After that, Jin Yiwei continuously transported the hoarded grain from the warehouses of those rice merchants, exposing all this to the eyes of the people in the capital.

This great shock caused by Yang Su raising a butcher's knife to the businessman, with the heads of the dozen or so businessmen who relied on their backstage hardness and chose to resist fell to the ground, and the imprisonment of Zhu Chunchen, the Duke of Chengguo, and Zhang Yandeng, the imperial history of Zuodu, finally calmed down!

The kinds of people I admire the most: those who get up when the alarm clock rings in the morning, those who drink yogurt without licking the cover, those who don't lick their fingers after eating potato chips, those who go to bed immediately after saying good night, and those who go to the toilet without a mobile phone! For this kind of person who is so cruel to himself, I generally stay away.
