In this well-planned script, Sheng Xuanhuai, as a white face, sang the temperament of a black face, and under Ye Kai's special instructions, what he did was indeed very qualified.
After getting this news, Sheng Xuanhuai had already arrived in Tianjin, and when a review edict was placed in front of Natong, he was full of panic except trembling, why was there no news from the imperial court? And what kind of ruthless character Sheng Xuanhuai is, Na Tong naturally knows that Chen Bi's fate is so miserable thanks to this Minister of Posts and Communications, as soon as he thinks of this, Na Tong can no longer sit still.
Taking the opportunity to clean up the dust for Sheng Xuanhuai, Na Tong thought about sending someone to clean up the mess immediately, and he could delay it for as long as he could, but he ran into a hard nail, Sheng Xuanhuai refused Na Tong's welcome dinner very facelessly, and said to the military minister who was acting as the governor of Zhili with a cold face, "That lord, King Sheng is in charge, and when he came, the regent instructed him again and again, not to be greedy for alcohol and misconduct, this case is very important, and the investigation should be stepped up, so I'm sorry, Sheng Mou will go first." After saying this, Sheng Xuanhuai left, he did not stay in the courtyard room prepared for him by Natong, but lived in an official post far away from the Zhili Governor's Office, and summoned one of the parties involved in the case that night.
Sheng Xuanhuai is a happy trial, but Tong has not slept all night, he sent someone from Sheng Xuanhuai's residence to inquire about the news, but without exception to the top back, there is the monitoring of the Security Bureau, what kind of person does not want to find some clues from it, the news came that Tong is even more like a pins and needles, an old face is gloomy like a purple eggplant, in desperation, he had to send a telegram to Yi-Xuan, asking for advice on how to deal with it, however, the telegram sent out was nothing, like a stone sinking into the sea, did not get any reply.
What is the case of the Jinpu Railway, Na Tong knows better than anyone else, which confession can stand up to scrutiny, the case itself is full of loopholes, expecting to fill these loopholes in such a short period of time, it is simply a fool's dream, Na Tong patted his brain, he knew that he should not be in a hurry to report this case to the imperial court, at least he should do a good job of the aftermath in the report is not too late, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was not right, he acted as the governor of Zhili for a total of ten days, if he could not close the case during his tenure, Then when the new governor takes office, won't it be a waste of all the previous achievements, to put it mildly, it is the hand that can't control himself, in short, get such a field, Natong's intestines are repentant.
The only thing he can do is to block the news and prevent the news of Sheng Xuanhuai's investigation from leaking out, and then, privately find an opportunity to contact Sheng Xuanhuai, to see if he can ask him to let him go, the third day of the latter's arrival in Tianjin, Natong can no longer sit still, he sent Sheng Xuanhuai some Tianjin sustenances in the name of condolences, which naturally contains these tens of thousands of taels of silver tickets, I have to say that Natong's IQ can be called low, Sheng Xuanhuai is rich in the world, you are the richest man in the late Qing Dynasty, how can you see him this little bribe, In addition, this case is not a simple judicial case, but involves the political struggle between the two major groups, if Na Tong can't see this, then there is really nothing to greet him except a sneer.
In the seven days of handling the case, the witnesses came in and out in waves, and the official post where Sheng Xuanhuai was located became the political center where all parties were active.
Na Tong's strict blockade still couldn't stop Ye Kai from deliberately revealing that he would use a new type of newspaper to gradually heat up the case, and use continuous reporting to bring Na Tong into the spotlight step by step, and enjoy the treatment of thousands of people.
Ye Kai is not in a hurry, everything is in the plan, the information of Sheng Xuanhuai's investigation is constantly gathered, Ye Kai is sitting in the courtyard of his house, and he can remotely control the process of this incident.
On the eleventh day of the investigation, the trial was basically over, before the final results were announced, this detailed report appeared on Ye Kai's desk, sure enough, this case was inseparable from that Tong, during the investigation of the case, the use of some high-level construction officials to embezzle the project money to make a big fuss, while singing red, on the other hand, cracking down on black, reporting and exposing on the surface, fake public and private, but privately accepting bribes, selling human relations, some people in order to protect themselves, directly the embezzled project money to Na Tong, more people, sell property, To please Na Tong, those who did not give that Tong money were naturally unlucky, and were corrected by Na Tong as someone else's scapegoat, and stood on the ranks of criminals with other people's black pots on their backs, just like that, a complete corrupt element became a hero with a golden foundation, and Na Tong relied on it, fame and fortune.
After reading this investigation report, Ye Kai couldn't help sneering in his heart, "Qing Na" did such things, but since Ji Qing, it is not only Natong who has done such a thing, it is those dirty hands that can be seen and invisible, who are hollowing out the foundation of this country step by step, not to mention the weakness, and in the end even the brain is rotten.
The next day, under Ye Kai's instructions, Sheng Xuanhuai left Tianjin, during his stay in Tianjin, he did not reveal even a little bit of news, before leaving, he still refused Natong's farewell banquet, the latter slapped the table and sighed, taking the opportunity of the banquet to try to solve the case, so far there is no hope for even the last bit of hope.
Sheng Xuanhuai left, but Na Tong fell into an unprecedented passivity, the huge Jinmen no longer had a place for his adult, and the spearhead of public opinion had pointed at him in all directions.
On the evening of Sheng Xuanhuai's departure from Tianjin, Jiang Zhiqing stuffed the general content of this investigation report to several newspapers in Tianjin, from content to data, from personnel to results, all of them have entered Ye Kai's oil and vinegar, and some have exaggerated several orders of magnitude, but the newspaper that got this examination is like a treasure, and the official family comes to send the news, which is still fake, not to mention what a big news this is, once it is reported first, it will definitely cause a tsunami-like tide, and this is a once-in-a-lifetime good news for a newspaper. They didn't even want to publish it in the next day's paper.
This day is destined to be the Good Friday of Natong, the newspapers on the streets of Tianjin were all sold out, and the news of Natong's corruption was spread, just like gasoline that does not need to be heated to explode instantly, although the data in the newspaper is not very proper, but public opinion is like this, once a topic is hyped, the purpose of attracting attention has been achieved.
When the news came, Na Tong was furious, he tore up the newspaper he bought and smashed it, slapped the table and shouted at the unconscionable newspaper, and the tide of public opinion cut him like a knife, and Na Tong, who lost his mind in anger, made the most wrong decision in his life.
Repression!
Na Tong personally led hundreds of soldiers and policemen to seize the major newspapers in Jinmen, and all the individuals involved in the reporting of the turmoil were indiscriminately imprisoned, and then the newspapers were confiscated, the places for comments were closed, and a curfew was imposed in public places.
What Na Tong didn't expect was that his series of actions not only did not extinguish the fire, but on the contrary, a larger fire spread like crazy.
