Paying attention to efficiency and high-speed operation is the tradition of Zheng Jiajun, not to mention the things that Zheng Jinhong is personally responsible for.

After receiving the invitation of the governor's yamen, the seven merchants were very happy and hurried to Yansui Town, they had done business with the governor's yamen before, especially the grain business, and still earned some silver, but unfortunately after coming to Yansui Town this time, they were imprisoned in prison.

Xu Wanghua personally interrogated these businessmen.

Since ancient times, the people did not fight with the officials, and the merchants understood these truths, after figuring out the original position of the matter, these merchants regretted it and confessed in full accordance with Xu Wanghua's requirements, and were willing to take out a large amount of silver, it doesn't matter if the meat is cut at this time, as long as they can save their lives.

Xu Wanghua also sorted out all the information collected during the secret visit, wrote out the materials according to the intelligence, and secretly found the relevant farmers to sign and draw on it, including Su Manzi.

The most important thing is to get the document issued by the prefect's yamen, which is a document to work against the governor's yamen, since then Chen Yaoyan has been charged with one more crime, the following crimes, of course, this document proves not only the problem of the following crimes, but also the role of confirming the corruption of ink and collusion with the rogue.

Time is urgent, and there is already a situation of starvation in all parts of Qingyang Mansion, and many things cannot be delayed.

Governor's Yamen, wings.

A draft of the recital has been drawn up.

Xu Wanghua, who handled this matter, talked eloquently.

"The first charge of embezzlement of ink by Chen Yaoyan, the governor of Qingyang Mansion, is already a certainty, and all seven businessmen have confessed, they rely on Chen Yaoyan's support to buy grain at a low price and sell it at a high price, and they have earned a lot of silver, and one-third of the silver earned is to be given when Chen Yaoyan leaves Qingyang Mansion."

"Chen Yaoyan violated the documents of the governor's yamen, and prepared to forcibly sell all the grain in the treasury, and it was also handled by these merchants, the grain in the treasury of Qingyang Mansion had a total of 32,000 stones, Chen Yaoyan sold it at a price of three taels and five cents per stone, and finally sold it at the price of eight taels of silver, this transaction can earn 144,000 taels of silver, and Chen Yaoyan can get 48,000 taels of silver from it."

"In addition, in the process of collecting taxes, forcibly purchasing the people's grain at a low price, Chen Yaoyan can obtain about 60,000 taels of white shadows, and Chen Yaoyan has been the prefect of Qingyang Mansion for less than three months, and the amount of greedy ink and silver has reached 100,000 taels."

"On the one hand, Chen Yaoyan's wanton greed for ink, on the other hand, the people in Qingyang Mansion have been displaced and reduced to homelessness, and the situation of starving to death has appeared in various places, but Chen Yaoyan ignores these situations."

"The second charge is collusion with the Liukou, the four counties in one state under the jurisdiction of Qingyang Prefecture were originally very stable, the government considered that this year was a year of great disaster, prepared relief food, and appeased the displaced people who poured into Qingyang, and stabilized the situation to the greatest extent, but Chen Yaoyan became the prefect and drove away the displaced people, regardless of the life or death of the people, and wantonly collected taxes, and the vast majority of the displaced people who originally stayed in Qingyang were forced to leave, and some of them have joined the ranks of the Liukou."

"Because of the large-scale collection of taxes, there have been a large number of displaced people in various parts of Qingyang Prefecture, and people who have died of starvation have long appeared, and the government does not consider the relief of the people, but instead drives these displaced people, and the notice issued by the prefect's yamen strictly orders all localities not to report the occurrence of displaced people.

"These displaced people were denied relief from the government, and were even driven and slaughtered, either starving to death or defecting to the Liukou, and the prefect's yamen knew that this would happen, but let it go, which was equivalent to helping the Liukou."

"The imperial court is exterminating the rogues on a large scale in Shanxi and other places, and the practice of the Qingyang government at this time not only did not take into account appeasing the people, but urged the people to join the rogue team, which is not a collusion with the rogues."

"The third crime is that after being discovered by the governor's yamen, he issued a document without authorization, demanding that the yamen of Fuzhou County sell grain."

"Chen Yaoyan, as the prefect of Qingyang Mansion, is entrusted by the imperial court, and after his filthy behavior was discovered by the governor's yamen, he should have been guilty of petitioning, but his actions are completely opposite, it is a trapped beast."

"This is undoubtedly a crime, you must know that there are displaced people in various parts of Qingyang Mansion, the best solution is for the government to take relief measures, take out food, so that the people can settle down and return home, but Chen Yaoyan for his own selfish interests, do not hesitate to take a salary, sell all the grain of the government, the consequence of this practice is that the government can not appease the people, let the people starve to death or join the ranks of the gangsters."

"These three crimes already belong to the category of heinous punishment, and according to the requirements of the Ming Law, they are enough to be beheaded." ……

Xu Wanghua's statements are very clear, and they are interlocking with each other.

Zheng Jinhong looked at Xu Wanghua and admired it very much, he also participated in the interrogation of Shang Jia, but he didn't expect so much, Xu Wanghua actually connected everything together, which made Chen Yaoyan have no chance to defend himself.

Zheng Xunrui listened very carefully, and after Xu Wanghua finished speaking, he didn't speak after a while.

"This impeachment is extraordinary, you all know the meaning, so it is necessary to defeat the enemy with one move, and Chen Yaoyan must not be allowed to have any chance to defend himself, even if it is the person behind Chen Yaoyan, he does not dare to help, since I have torn my face with them, I will not scruple so much."

"Mr. Xu, there is one aspect that you need to pay attention to, that is, Shang Jia said that when he waited for Chen Yaoyan to leave Qingyang Mansion, he would hand over the silver taels, there are some doubts in this, Chen Yaoyan is very likely to defend himself from this aspect, after all, his silver has not been obtained yet."

"There are two issues involved, the first question, how did Shang Jia know that Chen Yaoyan would leave Qingyang Mansion soon, after all, Chen Yaoyan has been in office for less than three months, is he going to leave so soon, if Chen Yaoyan didn't say it in front of Shang Jia himself, how could Shang Jia know, so it is necessary to adopt evidence in this regard, so that all businessmen admit that Chen Yaoyan once said such words, so Chen Yaoyan has no chance to defend himself."

"The second question, that is, how to pay for the silver, with Chen Yaoyan's promise in the front, the matter of the silver payment in the back is easy to say, I think that when Chen Yaoyan left Qingyang Mansion, he carried a large amount of silver, which is not valid, so these businessmen will find a way to transport the silver to the capital, and hand it over to Chen Yaoyan directly in the capital, isn't it very convenient."

Xu Wanghua's eyes revealed a strange look, he originally thought that he had considered it very thoughtfully, but he didn't expect Zheng Xunrui's consideration to be more detailed, so that Chen Yaoyan didn't have any chance to defend himself, you must know that after such evidence is in his hands, it can prove that Chen Yaoyan's purpose in coming to Qingyang Mansion is not to be a good official at all, but purely to make trouble.

Chen Yaoyan is not a crazy person, why did he choose to do this, I believe that the emperor who saw the folds would think about it.

Zheng Xunrui's use of this case has actually planted a seed in the emperor's heart, which is probably something that the people behind Chen Yaoyan can't imagine.

"The subordinates understand, these things will be done by the subordinates today."

"Well, the sooner the better, Chen Yaoyan don't think about leaving Qingyang Mansion with dignity, in addition, Mr. Xu should also pay attention to some, try to be as fair as possible in terms of wording, all the testimonies are in duplicate, and the governor yamen must leave a copy, these testimonies can not be lost, who knows if there will be any accidents in the capital."

After Xu Wanghua left the wing, Zheng Xunrui spoke to Zheng Jinhong.

"Jin Hong, order the dark line of the capital, spy intelligence in many ways, Chen Yaoyan don't think about living, I'm afraid that the day he arrives in the capital will be the day of his death, some people in the court don't want him to speak, and they don't want the emperor to pay too much attention to this matter, we can't control these aspects, and we don't have so much power, but we don't want to be at their mercy, thinking that I am a good bully, Chen Yaoyan's case will definitely cause discussion in the capital, such a discussion is not something that someone can stop, At the right time, some rumors can be created in the capital to make the people behind Chen Yaoyan uncomfortable. ”

"Young Master, do you want to tell Master Wen about this."

"Don't say it, this is a big deal, we will deal with sensitive matters ourselves, and we can't spread it, the master's personality is not unfamiliar."

Speaking of this, Zheng Xunrui sighed slightly, in fact, he also wanted to get Wen Zhenmeng's help, after all, Wen Zhenmeng is the second assistant of the cabinet, and he can speak in front of the emperor, and Wen Zhenmeng's identity is special, and his influence in front of the emperor is not small.

It's a pity that the relationship between Wen Zhenmeng and the Donglin Party is good, when dealing with the eunuch party, the Donglin Party supported Wen Zhenmeng, so that Wen Zhenmeng was classified as a member of the Donglin Party, and now Zheng Xunrui and the Donglin Party have begun to fight, in this case, let Wen Zhenmeng mix, it must be counterproductive.

Besides, the heart of the emperor is unfathomable, Wen Zhenmeng can become the second assistant of the cabinet, he was originally going to appear as a lonely minister, and he can only be loyal to the emperor, if there are too many contacts with the below, or too many times to speak for the below, it is strange that the emperor does not have doubts in his heart.

"Jin Hong, these seven businessmen will also be severely punished, my idea, each family takes out five thousand stone grain, you go to handle it immediately, if they can agree, then the governor Yamen can consider the folding, alleviate their sins, and write them into the words of taking the initiative to expose Chen Yaoyan, if they love money as life, then escort them to the capital, at that time, I am afraid it will not be a problem of five thousand stone grain."

Watching Zheng Jinhong walk out of the wing, Zheng Xunrui shook his head slightly, he had to imagine things complicated, so that he could face the impending danger
