"Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live......"

It's another great pilgrimage.

Chen Ming looked at the bowing of the ministers with a somewhat blank expression, and a boring feeling churned in his heart. No wonder the emperors in history have such a thing as 'disgusted with politics', Chen Ming thought it was nonsense in his early years, but now he really knows it.

This emperor has been in office for a long time, and if he has sat on this dragon chair for a long time, he will really be tired of politics. Especially when you are satisfied, you don't have much energy to deal with government affairs.

Chen Ming is definitely tired of politics now.

As for domestic affairs, especially the orderly civil and internal affairs, he really can't lift his spirits. That is, international events such as the Suez Canal, such as Louisiana and South Africa, which can also cheer him up.

After letting everyone calm down, Chen Ming glanced at the old eunuch Zhang Dayong beside him.

"There is a morning music, and there is no retreat!" Zhang Dayong naturally understood what Emperor Chen meant, waved the dust whisk in his hand, and shouted loudly.

However, God is obviously not on Emperor Chen's side, because as soon as Zhang Dayong's words fell, someone had already stood up and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the minister inspects the imperial history and Ji'an!"

Glancing at the person who stood up, Emperor Chen frowned slightly, it was an imperial history that he said he didn't know, and the current Emperor Chen had a headache when he saw the imperial history. However, the power of the Supervision Yuan was arranged by him back then, and it combines the imperial history of all Chinese dynasties and the procuratorate, anti-corruption bureau, discipline inspection commission, and many other rights in the rabbit era in later generations. Waving his hand weakly, Emperor Chen said to this imperial historian he didn't know: "What's the matter with Aiqing?" Go ahead! ”

"Your Majesty, the minister impeached Chen Sheng, the governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang." The man bowed to Emperor Chen and began to speak endlessly. And in terms of systematic induction, Ji An's impeachment of Chen Sheng has only one guilt - great disrespect.

Chen Sheng took the opportunity of Emperor Chen to go to Yue Wang Temple to worship Yue Fei this year, and wantonly sold the invitation letter for the worship ceremony in Zhejiang, and this year is the 700 'big birthday' of Yue Wangye. Chen Ming was supposed to go to Hangzhou in February, but he couldn't make it because of a stumbling matter. I changed it to November.

February is Yue Fei's birthday, and Fengbo Pavilion is the end of December.

Chen Ming had been thinking about this for many years, and the scale of this year's King Yue memorial was absolutely unparalleled. Chen Ming wanted to use this incident to announce to the whole world that the heroes of the Chinese nation would not be forgotten.

And for such a high-level worship, many rich people are not qualified to attend, but Chen Sheng, as a landlord, can arrange some people to follow and salute in the periphery. And there are really a lot of people who are willing to go.

For many industrial and commercial owners in China today, they are not short of money, but their social status is still not very high. Even if it costs a sum of money, they are willing to join in the fun, or to put it more bluntly, that is, to get into the dragon's spirit. Seeing the face of heaven, even if the emperor didn't see him at all, this is also an honor.

According to Ji An's investigation, Chen Sheng sold a total of 126 invitations, so that the income was as high as 1.26 million yuan in cash, plus more than 5 million yuan in donations. According to the unwritten rules of the Chen Han Dynasty, these silver were obtained because of Chen Ming, and Chen Sheng should have invested these six or seven million Chinese yuan in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. But Chen Sheng's actual investment was only one million, and the remaining more than 5 million yuan was transferred to the provincial government's account, and 200,000 here and 300,000 there, all of which were spent in a blink of an eye.

I thought it was disrespectful.

In China, acts that infringe on the emperor's person, power, and dignity can be called 'great disrespect'. Among the heinous sins of the Old Tang Dynasty, the sixth is great disrespect.

If Chen Sheng's behavior is on the platform, it can really be called disrespectful. This can be regarded as taking the opportunity to make money in the name of Chen Ming? Although it is not in my own pocket.

Weakly patted his forehead, Emperor Chen really wanted to run down now, fly at this person, and then step on him and kick him. While kicking, he scolded loudly: "Let you say, let you say!" Do you know that Chen Sheng is a member of the royal family? ”

That is the eldest son of the fourth uncle Chen Min, and now he is sitting in the position of governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and he can be said to be one of the leading figures in the royal family.

But this can only be thought about, listening to this person's words, Emperor Chen knew that Chen Sheng himself must be punished. He glanced at Liu Wenwei with his eyes, Liu Wenwei, who was as cold as a stone outside, looked no different from usual? But could this Ji An be arranged by him?

and Shen Guozhen.

Jiangsu and Zhejiang are his old bases, and Chen Sheng's accounts are so clear, could it be that he also made a contribution? The Inspectorate is also his old base. After being the Minister of Justice for so many years, how can he not have a few henchmen who have served him to death?

"Go and check, whose path is this Ji An taking?" After the next court, Chen Ming instructed Liu Wu.

Chen Sheng is also a person who came out of the Supervision Yuan, and he also did the inspection of the imperial history at the beginning, and then the supervision of the imperial history. It stands to reason that this kind of thing, the Supervision Yuan wants to give some mercy, why did it do so absolutely this time?

When things go wrong, there must be demons, did Chen Sheng offend people, or was he overshadowed?

However, just when Chen Ming had just called someone to investigate, a 'big earthquake' in Japan had suddenly erupted.

Chen Han has buried chess pieces for decades, and a shocking case involving the Chrysanthemum family will make Japan take a big step closer to the situation that Chen Ming expects.

Osaka Castle Daisage Sakai Tadajin, eagle-like sharp eyes looked at the mansion in front of him, he glanced back at the Osaka police commissioner, Okubo Masahiro, and asked expressionlessly, "Are you ready for everything you have prepared?"

"Your Excellency Sakai, everything is ready, whether it is manpower or a prison cell, it is all ready!" Masahiro Okubo bowed to Sakai Tadashi and said solemnly.

Sakai Tadashin is the next generation leader of the Sakai family, and in ten years he may be able to enter the highest decision-making level of the shogunate, the old man. Okubo Masahiro didn't dare to disobey him in the slightest, if he didn't know that Sakai Tadashi was a serious person, Okubo Masahiro's face would have a flattering smile on his face every day.

Nodding with satisfaction, Sakai Tadashi smiled and said, "Very good." This time the matter is done, I will definitely ask for credit for you in front of the general, and it is not impossible to sit in the position of the city generation in the future! ”

"The villain only hopes to be able to follow the left and right of the adults and listen to the teachings of the adults every day!" Masahiro Okubo is serious nonsense.

Osaka Castle is not the position of the shogunate, and the latter will be contracted by those families. Osaka Castle is anyone's go.

Glancing at the new army and police around him, Sakai Tadashi nodded with satisfaction and said in a deep voice: "You take someone to guard here, and you are not allowed to let anyone go." The new army followed me in and took people to raid the house! ”

The shogunate received great news from his connections in China, and the labor export company that Mino Heibei, a re-emerging legend, had started with the Chrysanthemum family a few years earlier, had killed tens of thousands of Japanese young men in just a few years.

The contracts they signed with the Chinese and the British were not labor contracts at all, but slave contracts.

In recent years, thousands of Japanese have died in the mines of Northeast China, Outer Northeast China, and Xiangzhou alone, and tens of thousands of Japanese young men have been sent to mines in China, and many people will surely be killed and injured. And the Japanese youths who sold to the British through their hands were at least 5,000.

Nearly 20,000 young Japanese people have been harmed by this company in just a few years.

When Japanese diplomats in China learned of the news, they immediately reported it to Edo. When Tokugawa Isaharu heard the news, he was furious and immediately sent an order to Osaka, asking Osaka Castle to arrest Mino Heibei on behalf of Sakai Tadashin immediately.

But Tokugawa Isaharu didn't believe that Mino Heibei would be so unwise, and such a performance was very different from Mino Heibei's previous performance. And in recent years, Sanye Pingbei has had a close relationship with the Chrysanthemum family, which can be regarded as an open exchange. These can't help but make Tokugawa Isaharu think of something.

But in fact, the Chrysanthemum family is innocent, they only think that Sanye Pingbei is doing normal business, Sanye Pingbei is friendly with them, and the Chrysanthemum family only thinks that Sanye Pingbei is here to seek a kind of support. With the participation of the Chrysanthemum family, will Mino Pingbei's business be much better?

Most of Sanye Pingbei's profits are also put into his own pocket, which is Chen Han's reward for Sanye Pingbei.

……

With Sakai Tadashi's order, the gate in front of him was kicked open, and the two teams of Japanese new troops rushed in two directions.

Mino Heibei sat calmly on a tatami mat with a small table on it, and a pot of poisonous wine was placed in front of him, and the cup was empty.

Before that, he rejected Tang Feipeng's proposal to go to China and return to his ancestors.

He felt that as soon as he was gone, there would be a tail left, which was not in line with the Japanese character and outlook on life. He deserves to die, so that the Japanese will be more convinced of the 'facts' - the Chrysanthemum family is deeply involved.

Of course, his sons and grandsons don't need to die all. Only the eldest son and second son who accompanied him to die in the past few years have appeared with him.

Even after he drank this cup of poisoned wine, it is presumable that the eldest son of the other man in Nagasaki and the second son of the person in Beihai will also kill himself with a knife.

It's not scary, it's really not scary.

Some outsiders may ask, is it worth it?

Wang Pingbei and his eldest son and second son will say sincerely, it's worth it, it's worth it!

The Wang family has three lives in exchange for the opportunity for the entire family to take off, and there are no more three lives of such value in the world. They died a well-deserved death, and their death was worth it!

Wang Pingbei died, his eldest son and second son died, but his third and fourth sons did not; Those of his grandchildren did not die.

These people can live an upright life in China, under the sun, rich and noble, and all of them are surnamed Wang, and they all recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors. Even the name 'Wang Pingbei' was posthumously sealed by the imperial court.

How is it not worth their death?

"Bang!"

The door was kicked down, and a group of Japanese New Army soldiers with guns entered. Sakai Zhongjin looked at Wang Pingbei, who had been poisoned and died, and scolded with hatred. Then his eyes settled on a brazier under the tatami mats, and there was a faint smell of burning letters in the room.

"Take it out!"

"Your Excellency, the brazier is still hot."

Sakai Tadashin picked up the ashes in the brazier with his saber, leaving nothing behind.

"Search for me!"

If Sanye Pingbei's back is really not simple, he will definitely not be able to burn all the evidence, he will only have time to burn the most critical part.

The carrier pigeon flew to Edo with the results of a day of search and interrogation by Tadashi Sakai.

Tokugawa Isaharu was in high spirits and awaited news from Osaka. He hoped that Sakai Tadashin would understand what he meant, even if there was no matter of the Chrysanthemum family, Sakai should also involve the Chrysanthemum family.

There is an old Chinese saying that if yellow mud falls into the crotch of your pants, it is not but.

"Bastard!" After seeing Sakai Tadajin's report, Tokugawa Isaharu let out a loud roar, and the whole person was like an angry lion.

This should be where the Chrysanthemum family spends all their money?

The Japanese who were sold to China and Britain by Mino Pingbei were no less than 50,000, and because it was a slave contract, the price for each person should be three or four hundred Chinese yuan, or even higher. Even if Mino Heibei wants to give a little bit to the families of those Japanese, the cost of the past few years is only a small part of it. However, the amount of the family property [including bank deposits] confiscated by the Sanye Pingbei family is obviously wrong, after deducting his family's expenses and the money given to the Chrysanthemum family, there are more than 15 million Chinese yuan, and as little as tens of millions of Chinese yuan, I don't know where to go.

This is not a small amount of money for Japan. You can do a lot of things!

For Tokugawa Isaharu, it was a big bomb, and if it exploded, the Tokugawa shogunate would be hit hard.

Tens of millions of Chinese dollars were secretly and unknowingly 'spent', and the high-level officials of the Tokugawa shogunate felt extremely terrified when they thought about it.
