Chapter 362: National Treasure Theft

In the next few days, with the entry of Wu Qingbo and Li Wei into the palace, the sale of art treasures in the palace to enrich the treasury encountered unprecedented doubts, and a sudden political storm was set off among the Jingshi.

Wu Qingbo Li Wei came from a humble background, all thanks to a daughter became the Empress Dowager Li of the Ming Dynasty, this is the Huang Tengda, he is usually very timid, and he is very polite when he sees the civil officials and martial arts nobles, "the only problem is greed for money, and if he sees something good, he enters the palace to find his daughter to ask for it, and first he was given the Haidian Huangzhuang, and built the famous Tsinghua Garden (where Tsinghua University is located in later generations), and later turned the famous Yuyuantan Diaoyutai into his private property.

The Xu family and the Li family are in-laws, Xu Xinyi lives in Wuqing Bofu, looking for an opportunity to talk about the sale of things in the palace, she intentionally or unintentionally mentioned that some people in Nanjing are willing to buy "Qingming Riverside Map", jasper watermelon and other treasures.

The speaker has a heart, "The listener also has the intention, Li Wei was originally poor, and when he heard Xu Xinyi say ten thousand taels of gold, he almost didn't choke on a mouthful of food, and immediately started a small abacus.

That night, the servants of Li Wei's subordinates were taken aback: the old man was lying on the bed like a pancake tossing and turning, and he didn't sleep all night.

Early the next morning, the old man Li went into the palace to find his daughter with a pair of black circles under his eyes, "anxious as a spark" in a sedan chair, and did not say a few words when he met.

Empress Dowager Li knew that her father didn't have any hard cultivation, and all she wanted in the past was the imperial village, land, gold and silver, and suddenly asked for calligraphy and painting treasures, she couldn't help but feel a little strange in her heart.

But Empress Dowager Li is quite good to her family, especially her father Li Wei, as long as she doesn't ask too much, "she will be satisfied, and her artistic accomplishment is insufficient", and the value of these treasures in her mind is also very limited, so she immediately passed on the decree and rewarded the treasures to her greedy father.

I never thought that any jasper watermelons would be easy to find, but I couldn't get out of "Qingming Riverside Map"!

Li Wei immediately refused to give up, and forced the eunuch to find a painting for him, just because yesterday Xu Xinyi said that the rich man who was willing to pay 10,000 taels of gold to buy these treasures was actually a descendant of Zhao Song, "What jasper, watermelon, jade and Go were all things used by the imperial palace of the Song Dynasty back then", people took advantage of this to hang their ancestors, so they were willing to buy them at a high price.

Among them, the "Qingming Riverside Map" depicts the scenery of Bianjing and the imperial palace in the Zhao and Song dynasties, which is precisely the first of all the treasures.

Li Wei was determined to get this picture at all costs for the legendary 10,000 taels of gold, and shouted in the palace, but after a whole day, Zhang Cheng and Zhang Whale came out to pay attention, but they still didn't find it. The old man actually ran to his daughter and complained that the eunuchs in the palace dared to disobey the queen mother's decree and hid the famous paintings and refused to give them to him.

Empress Dowager Li was impatient with her father's quarrel, "Replace it with other paintings, no matter how precious the famous paintings, Li Wei shook his head like a rattle: don't, just "Qingming Riverside Picture".

Later, even the Empress Dowager Li became suspicious: Where did the painting go? She told her father to go back first and "wait for a secret visit in the palace" to give it to him after she found it, and Li Wei returned disappointed.

There is no impermeable wall in the world, and Li Wei's noise in the palace is not small, and it naturally reaches the ears of people outside the palace.

Zhang Juzheng's opposition has been degraded and degraded in the past two years, and there is not much left of it, and the sale of calligraphy and paintings to fill the treasury "is after all in line with the way of thinking of the civil officials of the foreign dynasty who "take all the money from the inner treasury to the household department", and there is nothing to say behind the support of the Empress Dowager Li and Emperor Wanli.

Shen Sixiao, the director of the Criminal Department, Zhao Yingyuan, the superintendent of the imperial history, and Zhang Youlong, the Shaoqing of the Taifu Temple, and others wrote one after another, impeaching Zhang Xueyan, the secretary of the household department, for conniving at the subordinate officials, filling their own pockets, and colluding with the eunuchs of the inner court to "take the opportunity of selling the forbidden things in the palace to covet many treasures led by the Qingming Shanghe Tu".

Xiang Zhuang's sword dance was intended for Pei Gong, although the spearhead was temporarily aimed at Zhang Xueyan, who was directly in charge, in fact, it was directly aimed at Zhang Juzheng, the first assistant emperor who pushed this matter, and Feng Bao, the master of ceremonies.

Shen Sixiao and the others who jumped out now are just soldiers who are charging into battle, and there are still chariots, horses, artillery and old marshals standing behind them, the remnants of the former Shoufu Gao Gong who stayed in Beijing, and the court officials who clashed with Zhang Juzheng in the Ding Wei affair before, and the attitude of Shen Sixiao, the head of the Criminal Department, towards the behavior of Shen Sixiao, the head of the Criminal Department, is quite ambiguous. ,

From the inner court to the outer court, a storm was brewing, and those officials who were dissatisfied with the new policy were watching the situation "with a tea that could not be hidden......,...

No one would know that the butterfly that flapped its wings to form a storm was just the little fourth-grade brocade guard commanding Qin Lin.

In the past few days, he still honestly went to the Jinyi Guard's yamen every day to order the mao, pretending to be nothing, even when the most trusted Lu Yuanzhi and Niu Dali discussed the theft of famous paintings in the palace every day, they definitely didn't expect what role the head of the family played in this turmoil.

Finally, Liu Shouyou summoned all the officials to the White Tiger Hall.

There are two people accompanying Liu Shouyou, one of them has a mediocre appearance, a particularly treacherous smile, a brown shirt, soap boots, and a pointed hat, but it is different from the officials of Fudong Factory seen in the past, and there are thousands of military attachés on their chests to supplement one This is the second person in Dongchang in addition to the factory official, and the current person in charge of thousands of households, Feng Bao's henchman Xu Jue.

The other person looked unruly, his face was full of meat, his beard was pierced on his chin, and his fierce appearance was revealed, "It is also a brown shirt and soap boots, and there are hundreds of military attachés on his chest.

The factory and the guard are integrated, most of the time the power of the East Factory has to overshadow the Jinyi Guard, and the status of the East Factory in charge of the thousand households is similar to that of Liu Shouyou, the governor of Jinyi, and the punishment of the hundred households is slightly better than all the Jinyi Hall officials except for the Fusi of Zhangbei Town.

Therefore, many officials nodded to these two, but Feng Bangning looked leisurely, faintly arrogant and arrogant to his colleagues Xu Jue and Chen Yingfeng were all subordinates of his uncle Feng Bao.

They all know each other, Liu Shouyou introduced it slightly, and he said straight to the point: "I think you all know" The "Qingming Riverside Map" given by the Empress Dowager Cisheng to Wu Qingbo is actually impossible to find in the palace" There is anything to say outside, and regardless of it, for the anger of the Queen Mother, Dongchang and our Jinyiwei joined forces to handle the case, which two brothers are willing to contribute to investigate this case? ”

After brushing it, all eyes were on Qin Lin, who didn't know that this young commander had repeatedly solved major and important cases, and he was the number one capable member of Ben Ya to solve cases?

"The next official is willing to go!"

Unexpectedly, it was not Qin Lin who preemptively agreed, but Feng Bangning, who walked out of the train triumphantly and looked at Qin Lin defiantly! ~!
