Chapter 428: Qincha Great Wholesale
The Li family and the Cai family were raided, pulled out the radish and brought out the mud, how many bad things they have done over the years, how many officials they have bribed, and how many cases they have had, it is not enough to describe it in a sufficiency.
Not only in the southeast, someone rushed 800 miles to spread the news to the capital, and Jiajing, who had been in retreat, was shocked and stayed awake all night, from the cabinet to the six ministries, all of them were shocked.
The remaining five families of the seven surnames were in a panic, using all their connections to inquire about the news, ask for help, and even some people secretly prepared ships, and if their homes were raided, they would die at sea and become a widow.
Those officials who have something to do with the seven surnames are even more frightened, who knows how many things the Li family and the Cai family have hidden, and if they throw a little thing casually, won't it kill them?
According to the usual experience, when encountering countless cases that are implicated, you should quickly send someone to cover the lid, destroy the evidence, and end the chaos as soon as possible, so that everyone can feel at ease.
After all, no matter whether it is the Yan Party or the Xu Party, or even the eunuchs of the inner court, no one can afford a super earthquake.
But this time the situation was different, no one dared to act, one by one seemed to be stunned wooden chickens, waiting for the fatal knife to fall.
Are these big people stupid, of course not, a Ruan Que in their eyes, the fart doesn't want to bring him down, it's easy, and even effortless. It's just that another, even more shocking news came, and it made all of them stupid.
On the tenth day when the goods were hijacked, Yu Dayou led more than 50 warships and miraculously appeared off the coast of Zhangzhou Moon Port. At the same time, Qi Jiguang led 3,000 Qi family troops to fight the vanguard, and Yang Jisheng supervised the men and horses.
In the battle, more than 13,000 pirates were killed and more than 30,000 were captured. Less than 3,000 people fled to sea, and the pirate smuggling syndicate, which had been plagued for many years, was completely destroyed.
Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou, a dragon and a tiger, are famous all over the world.
Almost to the extent that no one knows about it, how many hot-blooded men in the folk take these two as examples. There are even people who want to learn from them, carry a three-foot sword, sweep away the wolf smoke, and even have a craze for joining the army.
Unlike the joy and encouragement of the people, the officialdom is silent.
Yuegang, for Jiajing, may be just an unfamiliar term, but all the officials who have worked in the southeast know it in their hearts. It was an incredible landmine, even ten thousand times more terrifying than the Li family and the Cai family.
Over the years, the cause of the Japanese is not that no one knows, but that they dare not say if they do. Which local official can say that I am not governing well, and the officials force the people to rebel, making the smoke everywhere, and the people are not able to make a living, what is the difference between this and looking for death. can't be like Tang Yi. Challenge the sea ban.
Helplessly, the big guy chose to hide it and choose to prevaricate. Describing pirates as pirates and turning them from internal troubles to external troubles can at least alleviate some culpability.
They also knew that the so-called would-be wouldn't be imposed if they continued to enforce the maritime ban. As the saying goes, it is better to be blocked than to be sparse, and only by relaxing trade can there be a way to live. Quanzhou. These conspicuous places in Fuzhou are not successful.
Coming and going, the relatively remote Moon Port has become the first choice for smuggling.
Zhangzhou and Quanzhou are close to each other, Quanzhou, as the largest port in the past, has a much better foundation than Zhangzhou, but in recent years, Zhangzhou's household registration has reached as many as 300,000, which is 100,000 more than Quanzhou, not counting those black households.
There is only one reasonable explanation for such an abnormal population phenomenon, and that is the smuggling trade, which has caused the abnormal prosperity of Moon Port.
This matter is not known to everyone in officialdom, but it is also an open secret.
It's just that everyone knows that the smuggling trade is not only a maritime businessman, but also includes the families of the southeast, and even the porcelain merchants of Jiangxi are involved.
Yan Ge is always a pleasant person in Jiangxi, and Xu Ge is always a native of Huating in Nanzhili, if he really opens the lid and then acts according to the law, the party struggle in the Ming Dynasty will disappear immediately, because the Yan Party and the Xu Party are basically gone, and there are only a few people left.
People who know a little bit about things, and those who have some experience, don't dare to touch the mine of Yuegang easily.
But there was a stunned Qing Tang Yi, he had only been in the officialdom for more than a year, and he suddenly sat in a key position, pretending to be smart, and took Yuegang to the end.
Many people scolded Tang Yi, but after learning more about the situation, these people had nothing to say.
Speaking of which, it's really no wonder that Tang Zhuangyuan is on his head.
The pirates of Yuegang actually took the initiative to rob the city's fleet, more than three million goods, if they were lost, Tang Yi would be planted in his life. How many people have pinched a cold sweat when they heard about it.
But then it was beyond everyone's expectations, Tang Yi was clever, and when he was imprisoned, he was able to give Yu Dayou an order to be careful, and he turned defeat into victory and eliminated all the pirates.
The angry Tang Zhuangyuan raised both sea and land, and took the Yuegang bandits' nest, which is also understandable, who suffered such a big plot, can he not fight back!
What's more, Tang Yi immediately rushed to Zhangzhou on the second day after he broke through Yuegang, and ordered all the documents with words to be sealed and not allowed to leak a single one.
Obviously, Tang Yi also knew that the matter was big, but the problem was that after a war, who knows how much incriminating evidence has been lost, and who knows if the pirate who ran out did not carry something fatal.
And there is not only Tang Yi in Yuegang, but also Yang Jisheng, the prefect of Zhangzhou, and the patrol of Fujian, the big guys are in full view, can the matter be hidden?
The incident in Yuegang made a fuss, but no one dared to speak for the Li family and the Cai family, this kind of juncture is too dangerous, whoever jumps out to be the first bird, maybe a letter will come out, saying that the family is involved in smuggling, at that time, the loess mud fell into the crotch of the pants, and it is impossible to say.
Since the incident in the southeast came out, how many officials in Beijing, even the father and son of the Yan family are unpleasant to eat, and they can't sleep, old Yan Song sighed, and kept asking his son, is it mixed up?
Yan Shifan is also unspeakable, Yan Dang's stall is so big, and the porcelain merchants in Jiangxi all follow their door, who knows who can be implicated.
"Tang Yi, a little brute, was looking for trouble when he was in the capital, ran to the southeast, and he didn't stop, and when Lao Tzu had a chance, he would definitely crush him!"
The world is in turmoil, but the situation is very good.
Others are restless in sleep, our Tang Da champion is not to mention how comfortable, he locked himself in the yamen all day long, and Wang Yueying was tired of crooked, Miss Wang mentioned that the vegetables outside were not fresh, Tang Yi took immediate action, and in one afternoon, he stripped all the flowers and plants in the back garden.
To say that the back garden of the prefect's yamen, but after several generations of prefects have been carefully cared for, a lot of treasures have been introduced, among which the two camellia trees from Dali are worth five hundred taels of silver.
Even Yang Jisheng, who is so frugal, takes care of it and works tirelessly, whenever he is tired of dealing with official documents, he likes to take a look, and the whole person is relaxed.
It was Tang Yi's turn, who didn't even frown, he pulled it out directly, put it in the sun for three days, and then sent it to the kitchen to be burned.
It is said that this matter reached Yang Jisheng's ears, and he scolded Tang Yi for an hour, and he didn't bring anything the same.
After tidying up the garden, people made several truckloads of thin mud, and sand and plant ash, sprinkled it in the garden, and then turned it over several times with a ploughstick, and the soil was loose and soft, breathable and water-retaining, and full of fertility.
Tang Yi was wearing straw sandals and a straw hat, digging and planting seeds in a decent manner, not to mention how serious he was, he didn't notice that anyone came to visit. After planting a ridge, when he looked up, the two of them were standing side by side, looking at him with strange expressions.
"Ah, it's Brother Zili!"
The person who came was Tan Lun, the prefect of Taizhou, and Yang Jisheng accompanied him, both of whom were wearing clean official uniforms, especially Tan Lun, who was handsome, spotless in clothes, and graceful, standing there like a jade tree.
Tang Yi is good, dressed as an old farmer, covered in sweat, and these two are really incomparable. Yang Jisheng was so angry that he jumped like thunder, and scolded: "Tang Xingzhi, you bastard who burns the piano and cooks cranes, tell me, which champion is like you, it's a shame, it's too embarrassing!" Tan Lun didn't speak, but he still nodded in agreement.
Tang Yi shook his head, "I said Mr. Jiaoshan, you are not right, you have to eat dragon liver and phoenix marrow, and you can also eat bitter roots." You say that I burn the qin and cook the crane, but I'm afraid that it won't be long before I can't even eat the nest head, while I still have a little power, I can learn to farm here, maybe I can use it. ”
This reason is too powerful, so strong that it is not beaten, and Yang Jisheng is so choked that he has nothing to say, as soon as he turned around, he saw Tan Lun, and said angrily: "Brother Zili, you still don't talk about him!" ”
Tan Lun smiled and shook his head, "In my opinion, yet, it hasn't come to that point." Of course, I can't say that. Yang Jisheng almost spurted blood, and scolded with a smile: "Tan Zili, you are Lord Qincha, what kind of slippery head are you playing?" ”
When Tang Yi heard this, he hurriedly put the hoe aside, and asked with a panicked expression: "Lord Tan, has the affairs of Fujian been handed over to you?" The saint is really discerning, and my life has been mostly saved. ”
Tan Lun smiled bitterly and waved his hand, "Okay, how can I have that ability, to tell you the truth, there are a total of five Qincha sent this time, and I." He pointed his nose and said helplessly: "I am the one who has the least power." ”
Tang Yi was also stunned, "So much? ”
"That's not it, Yan Maoqing, the right attendant of the Criminal Department, Zhao Zhenji, the right attendant of the Household Department, and Shi Gonggong of the Imperial Horse Prison, and Huo Jiangong, the third Taibao of Jinyiwei, what do you say compared to these four, I Tan Lun."
Ooh!
The five Qincha are handling the case together!
Tang Yi and Yang Jisheng were both taken aback, everyone knew that the affairs in the southeast were big, and the imperial court would definitely send important personnel to investigate, but they didn't expect that they would send five people together, and the knowledge in this was great.
First of all, Yan Maoqing is Yan Song's godson, a core member of the Yan Party, and he is cunning and should not be underestimated. As for Zhao Zhenji, he is a student of Xu Jie, known as a clear name, and he did not deal with the Yan Party, and he was also beaten by the court staff, it can be said that these two are natural enemies, representing the Yan Party and the Xu Party respectively.
Shi Gonggong represents the celebrant supervisor, Huo Jiangong represents Jinyiwei, and Tan Lun is the prefect of Taizhou, who is familiar with the situation in the southeast and can be called a snake in half the land.
I'm good!
Tang Yi's head swelled for a while, and he couldn't help but sigh: Jiajing, do you want to investigate the case, or do you want to watch a fight! (To be continued.) )
