After Zhao Wenhua finished speaking, seeing that He Maocai was silent for a long time, he couldn't help but have a gloomy face, and said in a gloomy tone: "Old He, do you still want to keep your official position?" ”

He Maocai woke up in horror and said embarrassedly: "The sinner doesn't dare, it's just ......" He didn't continue, obviously not believing Zhao Wenhua's promise.

"Hmph, Lao He, how important is the southeast, the wealth and grain of the imperial court come from Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and hundreds of thousands of troops are gathered, if you don't catch it, do you still want to sleep well? There are some stumbling blocks that must be removed. ”

There are some things that don't need to be said too clearly, leaving plenty of room for imagination. When He Maocai heard it, he would decide that Yan Song wanted to take the southeast and deal with Wang Chen, for so many years, the prestige that Yan Song had erected was still very amazing, in He Maocai's opinion, there was nothing that Yan Ge could not do.

Listen to the words of the elder of the pavilion, then you will not suffer.

"Lord Zhao, just ask, the sinner knows what to say."

As soon as Zhao Wenhua turned around, a hideous smile appeared on his face, and he immediately returned to his seat, and tortured several cases of greedy ink in a row.

"Hahaha, take the prisoner down, remember to be well guarded before being convicted by the court."

"Yes!"

The soldier dragged He Maocai down, and he still looked at Zhao Wenhua with gratitude. Over the years, cases of embezzlement have not been uncommon, and most of them have escaped death, and at most they have been exiled. Fortunately, I still have a small treasury and a cunning rabbit three holes, even if I can't become an official in the future, it's still no problem to be a rich man......

He Maocai didn't notice Zhao Wenhua's sinister thoughts at all, and was still dreaming. Zhao Wenhua kept going and brought the relevant personnel over. recorded the confession, and confirmed He Maocai's greed for ink and weaving bureau raw silk. As long as this case is sent, Jiajing will definitely be furious, and He Mao will not be able to escape with nine lives. The rest is how to splash dirty water, this Zhao Wenhua is very good at it, he found He Maocai's master staff. coerced and lured, got a confession, and put the charges of colluding with the Japanese and betraying the military intelligence on He Maocai.

As for Zheng Yongchang, if you want to say that he is not guilty, I am afraid that the upper and lower levels will not agree, Zhao Wenhua just said that he accepted He Maocai's silver, was greedy and incompetent, and asked for dismissal. Recovery of stolen money.

With an envoy and governor, the case can be regarded as an explanation, but when he thinks of the terrible appearance of the people in Zhejiang, Zhao Wenhua is still a little afraid.

"It seems that the Ying family can't be tolerated either!"

He thought about it for a while, and then cut off the affairs of the Ying family and the Japanese Invaders from the attack on Wang Chen, saying that they had no intention of murdering the governor, but only engaged in smuggling business with the Japanese Invaders, and the crime was not punishable. Ying Sanyuan and others who were captured were all killed. Ying Sanyuan is a distant relative of Ying Dayou, who is still a scholar. It is difficult to escape the blame and he was transferred to Nanjing as a punishment.

The loss of a criminal department Shangshu is a big blow to Yan Dang, but it is still within the scope of bearing, after all, Yan Song has many wings. The foundation is deep. Zhao Wenhua looked carefully and found that there were no loopholes. Only then did he go to the Governor's Mansion with the book, and he also had to appease Wang Chen and obtain his approval.

……

Governor's Yamen, Wang Chen's ward.

Drink bitter medicine soup for days. Wang Chen only felt that there was nothing to love in life.

"Imperial Doctor Li, let's tacitly, can the old man not drink?"

"Can't!" Li Shizhen said with a straight face: "Li doesn't dare to say that the doctor's parents are in love, but he must also be worthy of the consultation fee." Although you have no external injuries, you studied hard in your early years, and after being a sergeant, you served as a patrol imperial historian, and you have gone through wind and frost on the nine sides, and you have saved the root of your illness. If you don't know how to take care of it now, after a few years, all kinds of diseases will occur together, and it is possible to be paralyzed in bed! ”

Ooh!

This frightened Wang Chen, so he could only close his eyes and drink all the medicine in the bowl. Li Shizhen turned around and left, and a family member suddenly ran over, gave a letter of worship to Yang An, who was in charge of the door, and glanced at the official title above, he was dizzy and almost fell.

"The military department is still the book, the imperial envoy of the right capital, and the governor of Jiangnan, Jiangbei, Zhejiang, Shandong, Fujian, and Huguang is the ...... of the army"

Yang An counted with his fingers, Daming added up to two capitals and thirteen provinces, obediently, this one is in charge of six provinces, and he is also the richest and most populous. Except for Jiajing, he is simply the second emperor. Yang An didn't know which leg he had, so he sent the post to Wang Chen.

When Wang Chen saw it, he was also startled, and hurriedly lay down, asking people to invite the other party in, and at the same time telling Yang An to call Tang Yi over, these days Wang Chen has become accustomed to having Tang Yi by his side.

After a while, an old man walked in with a smile, this person was in his early sixties, in good spirits, walking with the wind, as soon as he entered the ward, Wang Chen struggled to get up, Tang Yi, who was waiting on the side, stuffed three pillows, Wang Chen leaned on the side of the bed, and barely sat up. With a guilty face, he said: "Zhang Butang, the late Wang Chen can't see the courtesy, and I ask the adults to forgive me." ”

The person who came was the new governor of the southeast, Zhang Jing, the old man's status in the rivers and lakes was too high, not to mention Wang Chen, even Xu Jie's face was a junior. However, Zhang Jing did not rely on the old man to sell the old, but smiled very politely: "Lord Wang doesn't need to be polite, the old man just arrived in Hangzhou, and this time I came here to see if Lord Wang can recover?" ”

Zhang Jing's tone was kind, but a pair of old eyes flashed with cold light, which could almost see through people, and Wang Chen couldn't help but feel weak in his heart.

"Lord Ministry, to put it mildly, it doesn't matter if you have a wound on your body in the later life, but the wound in your heart is too deep!"

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Jingxin said that he was concerned.

"If you have great merit, you will be blamed for it. Throughout the ages, there are not a few. Take Yang Minggong as an example, isn't that exactly the case? Lord Wang doesn't have to worry too much, since the old man has arrived, he will definitely not let the villains go unpunished. ”

"Thank you so much, Lord Budo!" Wang Chen pretended to be difficult and gave gifts.

Zhang Jing nodded, and was silent for a while before he took the initiative to speak.

"Lord Wang, who do you think colluded with the Japanese Invaders?"

Wang Chen was stunned for a moment, and then said with a wry smile: "Wansheng was injured and has been half-asleep, all of which are news from others." By the way, okay, you and Zhang Butang have a good talk. ”

Why am I again?

The teacher plays like this, the uncle also plays like this, you are using child labor to squeeze the wisdom of minors, you are committing a crime!

Tang Yi's heart roared over, and he still had to maintain his composure, and after giving Zhang Jing a salute, he said: "Lord Qiqi, according to the evidence collected from the Ying family and the Wu family, they have bribed the officials and forbade them to pick up the governor, and it is very likely that they will commit the crime. ”

"Oh?" Zhang Jing smiled: "Then what is their motive?" ”

"The kid thought he still couldn't escape a sharp word." Tang Yi said loudly: "Since the governor took charge of Fujian and Zhejiang, he has taken strict coastal defense and rectified the rule of officials, and the maritime merchant clans who relied on smuggling to make huge profits in the past have lost their smuggling channels. In addition, the governor destroyed the nest of the widows in Putuo and lost the transit point of maritime trade, so they were angry and ruined, and secretly borrowed the hands of the widows to eradicate the governor. From the sudden appearance of the Japanese Kou and the attack on Zhenhai, the accuracy of the timing and the understanding of the deployment must have been that someone in the imperial court leaked the news to the Ying Wu family, and then they colluded with the Japanese Kou to single-handedly direct this play. ”

Tang Yi's voice was clear and the logic was clear, and Zhang Jing nodded frequently when he heard it.

"These maritime clans are simply raising little ghosts! Abominable, hateful, killable! Zhang Jing was full of murderous energy, worthy of leading troops for many years, which made people tremble.

Tang Yi was originally worried that Li Tianchong was not Zhao Wenhua's opponent, but now that Zhang Jing had arrived, Zhao Wenhua was only afraid that he would be unlucky.

After a while, Zhang Jingcai said: "Lord Wang, when the old man was in Nanjing, I heard that you have a nephew who worships in the name of Jingchuan, and he is very smart, but this young man? ”

Tang Yi hurriedly bowed and saluted, "Thanks to the boss's praise, the kid's name is Tang Yi, and the cursive characters are good." ”

"Well, that's good." Zhang Jing smiled and said, "The old man has just arrived, are you willing to follow the old man and help the old man take care of it?" ”

Faced with the olive branch suddenly thrown, Tang Yi was stunned, but he knew that he couldn't refuse, so he could only smile and say, "I'm afraid that the kid won't be able to do things and cause trouble to the boss." ”

"Don't be afraid, since the old man is here, trouble is indispensable."

As soon as the old man's voice fell, the sound of footsteps came from outside, and it was Zhao Wenhua who walked in front, followed by Li Tianpet. When he arrived at the ward, he saw Wang Chen sitting on the edge of the bed, and Zhao Wenhua showed joy.

"Lord Wang's health is improving, it's really a blessing for Daming!"

Without waiting for Wang Chen to say anything, Zhang Jing smiled and said, "Lord Wang and the old man have been talking for a while, let him rest!" ”

Zhao Wenhua's face was displeased, and he said in his heart, where did the dead old man come from, how dare he be so big? Li Tianzhong was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Obey the orders of the minister." ”

Zhao Wenhua frowned, and also guessed the identity of this old man, I am afraid that it is the new southeast governor Zhang Jing Zhang Tingyi, to be honest, Zhao Wenhua is rampant, and he does not take Zhang Jing in his eyes. The big lama followed the man out of the ward, and when he reached the hall, he strode towards the main seat.

Li Tianzhong stretched out his hand and grabbed Zhao Wenhua, "Lord Zhao, you should always pay attention to proportion, right?" ”

"What do you mean, this official is Qincha!"

"Zhang Butang is also a messenger, and there is also a royal order banner given by His Majesty, and the life and death of officials below the fifth grade are all in the mind of the boss."

Zhao Wenhua rolled his eyelids and sneered: "This official is a squire of the Ministry of Works, a third-grade official, and it seems that he is not under the jurisdiction of Lord Zhang. Although his mouth was hard, Zhao Wenhua stopped and let Zhang Jing sit in the main seat.

"Lord Zhao, do you have something?" Zhang Jing asked lightly.

Zhao Wenhua smiled slightly: "Ben Qincha adheres to the emperor's order and came to Zhejiang to handle the case, and it has been found out that the criminal official He Maocai is the culprit, and Ben Qincha is here to inform Lord Wang and wants to play to the court." ”

"You talk nonsense!" Li Tianpet was unceremonious, and shouted: "Lord Ministry, I have investigated the current accounts of the Ying family and confirmed that they are the main culprits of the war. Moreover, the Ying family also sent 200,000 taels of silver to Zhao Wenhua and Lord Zhao. ”

"What you said is true?"

"It's true, and there are account books to prove it."

Zhang Jing turned the account book, glanced at it twice, and suddenly raised his head and said: "Lord Zhao, since you have a connection with the criminal, it is really not appropriate to investigate this case, so please temporarily avoid it in Qincha Xingyuan, and don't handle the case anymore."
