Chapter 70 The old trick is difficult to repeat

The efficiency of the Cao Gang is indeed extremely high. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info On the second night after Yang Zhen and Luo Chengzhang reached a cooperation, they had already sent detailed materials about An Li into the courtyard where the Jinyi guards lived.

At that time, Yang Zhen was just about to sit down and practice the Qingfeng Technique, when he heard a snapping sound from the courtyard. When he went out to look, he found that there was an extra gray cloth burden in the yard, and when he opened it, he saw that it was the relevant materials of An Li sent by the Cao Gang, Yang Zhen couldn't help laughing: "This Luo Chengzhang is really cautious, he didn't even say hello, and sent the things over." ”

At this time, Tang Feng and the others also came one after another, looking at the bag full of materials, several people showed satisfaction, and they all took the materials in the bag and returned to the hall to study and discuss.

These materials are indeed detailed, not only describing the process of An Li stepping from a small yellow gate to a provincial eunuch today, but also his family history is very clear.

An Li, a native of Taiyuan, Shanxi, now has three brothers and two sisters there, and the An family has become a few rich and noble families in the local area because of his career. In addition, his eldest brother also passed one of his sons to his knees, and now he is taken by him and called An Jizong......

Of course, the most detailed of these materials is the various illegal things that An Li did in Hangzhou and bent the law for bribes.

For example, by virtue of his imperial mission, An Li has blackmailed local officials several times, which has made the officials tireless, and some people have even written to impeach him. But because he had a big backer like Feng Bao, these bullets didn't even hurt his hair, but the impeached official was dismissed for other things soon after.

Another example is that in order to fill his pockets, An Li refused to buy silk at the market price, but forced him to buy and sell, and obtained a large amount of silk from merchants at half price, which led to the bankruptcy of many merchants. But because the backers behind him are hard enough, even if these businessmen sue the governor's yamen, they will not be able to do so in the end.

These various crimes, the Cao Gang not only wrote in detail, but some even had some empirical evidence, which is enough to prove that what they said is true. Looking at these materials, Yang Zhen had the illusion of going back in time, which was clearly the trick that Tang Feng and the others in Wuchang City used to bring down Governor Hu Lin that day.

Ma Feng looked at these materials, and he was also amazed: "This eunuch An really has a lot of appetite." In the past few years, I am afraid that I have saved more than 500,000 taels of silver. ”

"He may have looted 500,000 taels, but what really fell into his pocket should be less than 100,000." Tang Feng had a different opinion: "Most of the silver he coveted still had to be honored to the backer in the capital, otherwise he would have been overthrown by Zhejiang officials." ”

At this time, Deng Ting praised again: "The news of this Cao Gang is also really well-informed, and the ability is also great, how can you master so much material evidence." Or did they actually think about how to deal with Eunuch An, so they were able to come up with such detailed materials in one day. It's just that I don't understand one thing, since they have this, why don't they dare to move it? ”

Indeed, these materials in front of him are no less than when Tang Feng and they brought down Hu Lin that day. And Tang Feng and they have been preparing for that blow for two or three years, they are Jinyi Guard, and they are specifically doing this. Now that the Cao Gang can master these many black materials, I am afraid that they must have spent more thoughts, if they haven't thought about dealing with An Li, then no one will believe it.

But why didn't they do something about it? Do you think these materials are not enough to deal with Anli, or is it something else?

Deng Ting's seemingly unintentional words made Yang Zhen's heart move, and when he looked at Tang Feng again, he found that his face had also changed, from his previous joy to worry. He knew that Tang Feng had also thought of a key question, so he tried to ask, "Hundred households think this matter is embarrassing?" ”

"Yes, we have overlooked one of the most important things, he is a eunuch!" Tang Feng sighed.

"What's wrong with him being a eunuch? Could it be that the two eggs he cut off could be used as a talisman when corruption turned into evil? Deng Ting said puzzled.

Seeing that the others hadn't come back to their senses yet, Yang Zhen explained with a smile: "Those two things naturally can't be used as talismans, but his identity can." He is a eunuch and a palace, but he is not an official, and the system of the court cannot deal with him.

"We can use these materials to bring Hu Lin down, but against a eunuch, the lethality is limited. As long as the Son of Heaven or Feng Bao still wants to use him, these faults will not become evidence. It is precisely because he knows this layer that he dares to act so unscrupulously, even after being impeached. Because he knows very well that the only thing he really wants to do is the palace, and other officials, whether it is the people, are not in his eyes.

"In fact, we can also see some clues from these materials, have there been fewer people who have impeached him and sued him before? But as a result, An Li was not still a eunuch guarding the town, but the fate of those people was not very good. ”

After listening to Yang Zhen's explanation, the excitement just now suddenly dissipated, and they were speechless one by one. They knew that they had indeed made a mistake in experience, and they thought that they would be able to bring An Li down if they repeated the old tricks, but now that they think about it, they really take it for granted.

As if this understanding was not shocking enough, Tang Feng said again: "And have you ever thought about our current situation?" Now our top boss Qianhu Shen Zhuowei is looking away, and if we want to submit these incriminating evidence, we can't bypass him, will he help us do it right? ”

Seeing that everyone shook their heads blankly, Tang Feng smiled bitterly again: "And even if we make an exception and submit this evidence to the capital, do you think Liu Shou is willing to help us?" We have already offended Liu Shouyou and others because of the Wuchang incident, and this time they will only catch us for violating the rules and say things. In this way, not only did the result not bring down Eunuch An, but we were put into it, just like the officials who sued him before. ”

"Then what if we use the previous trick and attack from both sides of the government and Jinyiwei at the same time?" Ma Feng put forward his own suggestion again, obviously not wanting to have the opportunity to say no.

Tang Feng's answer was still disappointing: "This is almost impossible to do." Not to mention that there were many officials who did this before, but they couldn't hurt Eunuch An's fur, even now that we are unfamiliar with Hangzhou officialdom, they can't be used by me. It can be seen from the past, there are so many people who lost their officials because of the impeachment of Eunuch An, and now those officials will not understand the truth of self-preservation? Now everyone should know why the Cao Gang didn't do anything after having all this evidence, right? It's not that they don't dare, but they can't. After the last sentence was finished, Tang Feng sighed, and his face showed a rare helplessness and depression.

He had encountered many strong enemies, but it was the first time that it was as difficult to attack as the eunuch An in front of him. Although he still refused to give up in his heart, he still wanted to do something, and then make a meritorious service and go to the capital to settle accounts with Liu Shouyou and others. But when the facts were in front of him, and he found that continuing to persist would only bring trouble to his brothers, but it would not hurt half a hair, it was difficult for him to make up his mind.

All the paths to deal with An Li seemed to have been blocked, which made everyone in the hall look unwilling and resentful, but they were speechless for a while, only staring at the luck with big eyes.

In the end, Deng Ting couldn't stand such silence and said in a muffled voice: "Is it just that?" Let's just waste in this city of Hangzhou, do nothing? I'm afraid that in less than a year and a half, those guys in Beijing who hate us to the bone will find us wrong. Since it is impossible to escape the catastrophe horizontally and vertically, I think it is better to gamble! ”

His words hit everyone's hearts, and several other people also echoed them: "Lao Deng is right, we can't drag on like this and do nothing!" Otherwise, I'm not only sorry for myself, but also sorry for Zhai Qianhu! ”

"Baihu, let's take a gamble!"

"That's it, I'm afraid that he can't turn the sky upside down without eggs, and he's not Feng Bao, I'm afraid of where he came from!" ……

These people say every word, the more they talk, the more intense they become, and they just want to fight with An Li. It was Tang Feng, seeing them like this, and thinking of Zhai Qu's death, he couldn't help but want to give it a go. But at this time, he found that in addition to himself, there was another person in the hall who was not shouting like everyone else to bet on this, but was still looking at the pile of materials, and this person was Yang Zhen.

"Erlang, what do you think about this?" Tang Feng couldn't help but ask.

"The difficulties that Baihu said before, at least now, we can't eliminate them. That's why I thought it would be hard to succeed in such hard work. Yang Zhen said, raised his eyes and swept it, and found that everyone else was staring at him with angry faces, and he was just about to curse.

He smiled and shook his head: "Actually, we don't have to be too attached to these incriminating evidences at all. Since this road is impassable, it is necessary to find another way to deal with An Li, so why bother to go all the way to the dark? ”

"Huh? There's something in your words. Have you found another way? Tang Feng looked at Yang Zhen with a bamboo in his chest, and he was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly asked.

The other people also saw that Yang Zhen had another way, so they also turned their anger into joy one by one, and they all looked at him and urged: "Yang Erlang, don't hide if you have any good methods, hurry up." When that's all said and done, let's do it! ”

Yang Zhen pushed a few materials in his hand in front of everyone, and said softly: "Actually, I just discovered this method, maybe this person is the flaw of his eunuch." As he spoke, he pointed his finger at a person's name.

Tang Feng hurriedly went up, took a closer look, and saw the beginning of the top piece of paper: "An Jizong, the son of An Li, is twenty-three years old, and now he is on his side, and he is a good woman......"
