When Zhu Jie was handling affairs in Dongchang Mansion, Xu Yifan rode a fast horse all the way back to the capital.

Xu Yifan was also angry, and originally thought that Gao Jie had vaguely mentioned to himself, that is, there were occasional local officials who did this, after all, the court had just come to a bloodbath, at least not many officials would dare to stretch out their black hands again at this juncture.

I didn't expect that things would make such a big fuss, this is the case in Luoyang, this is the case in Gaotang Prefecture and Dongchang Prefecture, and what about other provinces? Can you grab too much than Shandong and Henan? Xu Yifan absolutely doesn't believe it, damn it, these corrupt officials really can't be killed......

returned to the capital, Xu Yifan didn't go back to his home, and went straight to Gao Jie's mansion.

It was the evening season, and there was no one to pay attention to the public for a long time, even if Xu Yifan went to the intelligence department, it was useless, it was better to go directly to Gao Jie's house.

Coincidentally, Sun Chuanting and Li Yan were guests at Gao Jie's house at the same time, and when they saw Xu Yifan who suddenly arrived, everyone was a little confused.

"Yifan? Aren't you following the emperor to Jiangnan? Why did you suddenly run back to the capital? What's wrong? ”

Sun Chuanting asked in amazement.

"Humph!"

Xu Yifan snorted angrily and shouted: "Brother Yingwu, the younger brother has run a distance of six or seven hundred miles in four days and four nights, and one horse has died!" I'm tired and hungry, get me something to eat first! ”

Several people have a close relationship, Xu Yifan is more than ten years younger than Gao Jie, and he is not polite in front of Gao Jie, so he said directly.

Gao Jie was taken aback, and hurriedly ordered someone to prepare meals and refreshments.

"Yifan, what's going on?"

Gao Jie asked.

Xu Yifan's face was gloomy, and he snorted coldly: "The matter is messed up, the emperor is furious and scolds me, this time, the corrupt officials and corrupt officials from the government and the opposition are going to be unlucky again......"

The three of them were shocked, Xu Yifan was scolded by the emperor, this is very strange, last year Xu Yifan beat Duan Chengzhi, the waiter of the Criminal Department, in front of the emperor, the emperor did not scold Xu Yifan, this time, the emperor even scolded Xu Yifan, what happened?

"Yifan, what the hell is going on? Tell me quickly, I'm in a hurry! ”

Gao Jie was quick-tempered and stomped his feet and asked.

Suddenly, Gao Jie's face turned pale and asked, "Yifan, is it the matter of the old Tianwei Army's pension?" ”

"Nonsense!"

Xu Yifan said hatefully: "In addition to this matter, do you think the emperor can scold me for other?" This time the matter was a big deal, and it was blocked by the emperor, and it was Luo Yu who stabbed it up, the old department of the Tianwei Army in Luoyang City only got less than 20% of the pension silver, and the same is true in Gaotang Prefecture, the matter of Dongchang Mansion is also being urgently verified, in order to be able to help the disabled Tianwei Army brothers, Luo Yu even dragged the crippled body and took the brothers to run to the rivers and lakes bodyguards, you say, where can the emperor stand this? How much the emperor values Luo Yu, you don't know it......"

Luo Yu's ability alone is not worthy of Zhu Jie's attention, but Luo Yu's character of being brave and loyal and not interested in fame and fortune is difficult to find in the Ming Dynasty......

Xu Yifan told the three people what happened in Gaotang Prefecture one by one.

Gao Jie jumped up directly and scolded angrily: "Dog, I heard some rumors below, and I thought it was a rumor, at this time, who dares to commit a crime against the wind?" I didn't expect it to be true, these people are so fucking fucked, right? Shameless, shameless! ”

"You still have the face to say!"

Sun Chuanting, who was on the side, turned pale, and shouted: "You are the secretary of the Ministry of Intelligence, who is in charge of the investigation and handling of official corruption and the intelligence of the government and the opposition, you didn't even pay attention to such a big matter, and you never told me about it!" You—You're a bastard! ”

No wonder Sun Chuanting is angry, Gao Jie is really too confused, Tianwei Army, that is the lifeblood of the Ming Dynasty, it can't withstand the slightest turmoil, once such news spreads among the Tianwei Army, there will be 100% huge turmoil in the Wei Army that day!

Gao Jie's face turned red, he didn't dare to speak, Gao Jie sometimes even dared to contradict the emperor, but he was honest in front of Sun Chuanting, after all, he was pulled up by Sun Chuanting, and his kindness was like a mountain, without Sun Chuanting, where would he be Gao Jie today?

Li Yan asked in a deep voice: "Yifan, so to speak, this matter has reached a very serious level?" ”

"Very serious!"

Xu Yifan said in a deep voice: "It can't be just Luoyang and Gaotang Prefecture, Dongchang Mansion, other places are not much better, the soldiers of the Tianwei Army have fought repeatedly, the soldiers killed in battle alone are more than 50,000, and the disabled are even more, adding up to more than 150,000 people, so many people, if you count the small family, I am afraid that it will cost millions of people, and the livelihood of hundreds of people will be involved, once it breaks out, it will definitely cause a big mess, these damn corrupt officials, no wonder the emperor is so angry......"

Li Yan's eyes flashed, and he said fiercely: "Since this is the case, then investigate to the end, up to the court, down to the prefecture and county, and check them all over again, Yingwu, without further ado, immediately deploy, let the intelligence departments everywhere take action, we want the most accurate information!" If you don't kill the last batch, it's definitely not enough to deter these little people! ”

Sun Chuanting smiled bitterly: "Yifan, Li Yan, it's not difficult to kill people, the difficult thing is that from the top to the bottom, I'm afraid that the officials involved will be at least thousands, right?" With so many vacancies all at once, where are we looking for so many officials to fill in? If you want me to say, first find out the matter, and then make up for the lack of silver and two fields to the soldiers, and then attack these corrupt officials and corrupt officials, as long as they are willing to hand over the proceeds of corruption to the imperial court, and take the initiative to confess their guilt, they can be exempted from punishment, and they can kill less, or kill less......"

Li Yan shook his head and replied: "My lord, I'm afraid it's too late, the current emperor is in a rage, even if we want to show mercy, the emperor won't agree, and once the matter comes out, the generals in the army will definitely make a fuss, don't take a large number of heads out to thank the world, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain......"

Li Yan is right, if it is just ordinary corruption and bribery, it is easy to do, but it is involved in the Tianwei Army, these generals in the army are all from the Tianwei Army, breaking bones and tendons, no one will sit back and watch their brothers and comrades be bullied like this, especially the soldiers of the fourth town, they are even more taboo about their origins, the damned prefect of Luoyang City, even said that the fourth town is a thief, it is really time to cut him with a thousand knives, wait, Once Li Dingguo gets the news, he will definitely not give up, and for the sake of his soldiers, he will have to make a big fuss!
