Chapter 418: The Root
Remember [ .] in one second, wonderful free reading without pop-ups!
Pei Xie Tang frowned: "The prince suddenly came to this move, it seems that he is really angry." Dad, who is Huang Peilin? ”
She had been in the court for many years, but she had never heard of this man's name.
Xie Yijiang sighed, Xu was aggrieved in his heart, and his speed of speech was a little faster than usual: "Speaking of this Huang Peilin, you don't know, the prince should know." This is a Jinshi who has been celebrating for ten years, and he has been doing county orders in Dinghai County over the years. Dinghai is on the eastern coast, and over the years, the imperial court has opened maritime commerce, and Dinghai is the largest seaport in that area. Although Huang Peilin is a small county commander, he is really a fat poor person in such a position. Over the years, the emperor is far away, and he has practiced his courage very much openly and secretly, if it weren't for the water bandits these days, the imperial court sent people to encircle and suppress the water bandits, and he couldn't detect the cats in Dinghai County. ”
As he spoke, Xie Yijiang briefly said what had happened.
This time it was the Han family in Luoyang who was sent to suppress the bandits, Han Tong Shuaijun, with his sister Han Sijun to make meritorious contributions, then Han Sijun after this fiasco in the capital, he felt that he had lost the people of the Han family, but he really changed his evil and returned to the right, and went to Dinghai with his brother to form a sea lion to suppress bandits, and made a lot of contributions.
The reason why Huang Peilin's matter was exposed was related to Han Sijun.
Han Sijun practices martial arts, his temperament is different from ordinary, and his appearance is also good. Han Tong took her to Dinghai, she always wore men's clothes, and when the water bandits were finished and Han Jiajun was preparing for the class, Han Sijun was a woman after all. I bought some pearl gouache, which was naturally better than what I bought in Luoyang before.
She was carrying a large bag and a small bag, and when she was about to go back, she was stopped in a dark alley.
It was no one else who stopped her, it was really the master under Huang Peilin, a tall and thin young man named Qin San. The young man looked at her carefully, with a lewd smile on his face: "It's really good-looking, and it's not in vain that the old man will never forget it at a glance." ”
Han Sijun asked him who he was.
This person is not afraid of things, and said with a smile: "I am the master of the county order, you also know that our county commander is the heaven in this Dinghai County, if you know each other, you will obediently follow us, let my master love you well, if you don't know each other, we will rob you, no one in your family wants to live, after all, it is in this Dinghai, no one wants to run away!" ”
The tone was very large, obviously not putting Han Sijun in his eyes.
In fact, Han Sijun's accent is Luoyang Township, which is completely different from the local accent in Dinghai. Kedinghai is the largest seaport, and there are a lot of merchants coming and going here, people from all over the country and even the Western Regions, and Han Sijun is not an outlier among them. That Qin San didn't put her in his eyes, doing business in Dinghai, even if he was the richest man, he had to give his daughter with both hands if the county order wanted him, Qin San only thought of Han Sijun as a merchant girl, even if he had a bit of temperament, he never thought of anything else.
So, this is a big disaster.
Naturally, they couldn't snatch away Han Sijun, who was strong in martial arts, and in the end, Qin San was thrown in front of his brother by Han Sijun like a child, and told him everything about it.
Han Tong is a soldier, and many years ago he knew that the Eastern Continent was in turmoil every year, the treasury was in deficit, and when these soldiers were fighting outside, the imperial court could not distribute it in time. Therefore, Han Tong also hates the corruption of court officials the most, this Dinghai County order can be so unpopular in a county town, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a hand covering the sky, which must be greasy.
So, Han Tong deliberately stayed for a few more days.
He is not a reckless man, he went to the city to inquire openly and secretly, and roughly figured out what this Dinghai County Commander Huang Peilin was.
This is an insatiable, feminine, and brutal villain!
He roughly estimated that according to the entry and exit of the merchants in Dinghai County, the silver embezzled by Huang Peilin every year must be at least five million. Five million! Thinking that the county lord of Tai'an was wronged and beheaded, the reported amount was only 50,000 taels of silver, and this small county order in Dinghai actually embezzled a hundred times that of Ran Chenglin!
Is this worth it?
Han Tong didn't wait to return to Beijing, so he rushed into the county government of Dinghai County with the sailor, detained Huang Peilin, and asked his sister Han Sijun to bring his own handwritten letter to Beijing and go to the court to meet the king.
Han Sijun went to Emperor Xuanqing under the guise of returning to suppress bandits, but what he reported was Huang Peilin's corruption.
Not surprisingly, Emperor Xuanqing was furious and immediately sent Qin to send Dinghai to find out. Han Tong was decisive, and all the evidence and witnesses were kept very well, and several waves of people assassinated them openly and secretly, but they all returned empty-handed. When Qin sent to Dinghai, the matter was quickly clarified.
Coincidentally, that Qin Cha is none other than Lin Jian and Bai Yu, who have just been new this year. After they entered the court, they received the Zhongshu idle post, that day Han Sijun went back and forth about this matter, just in time to catch up with Lin Jian to send the paperwork, Emperor Xuanqing did not want the prince and the second prince to intervene in this matter, so he sent this Qin to Lin Jian and asked him to pick a deputy. No one in the forest knew him, so he recognized his friend Bai Yu, so he went east together. As a result, because these two people are not people, the truth emerges.
Within a few days, the two of them returned to the capital with Huang Peilin's case, which was exactly what happened in the days when Pei Xie Tang was still in the palace.
It's just that Pei Xie Tang was confused in those days, and this Huang Peilin was really too small, so she didn't pay attention to it.
When she heard this, she thought about it instead.
"Huang Peilin is the prince's person?" She asked.
Xie Yijiang nodded: "Originally, I didn't know if it was, but after the trial of Huang Peilin the day before yesterday, His Majesty personally sentenced him to be beheaded, and after Huang Peilin was separated in prison for a few days, he suddenly shouted that there was a new confession, so he confessed again, and the governor of Haidong came, just to avoid death." The prince interceded for him, so that I could be relieved. Although this Huang Peilin moth is small, it has plagued my Donglu mountains and rivers for more than ten years, and I don't want to spare it at all, so I didn't let go. Who knows...... Who knew that this would anger the prince! ”
"After Feifei came back yesterday, I didn't sleep all night, and I couldn't figure it out in my heart, how could the prince be so angry because of this, and I didn't understand it until today, I'm afraid that the prince is not clean in it. I have seen Huang Peilin's account books, he embezzles a huge amount of money every year, but he himself left less than 20% of the silver, where did the remaining 80% go? Hmph, I think it must be from the East Palace! ”
Pei Xie Tang felt enlightened.
After so many years of doubts, it will be solved today.
When she was still dealing with the Chen family and the Meng family before, she felt very strange in her heart, although the Chen family's business was also big, it was not big enough to support the dead.
She and Gao Xingzhi were brothers and sisters, and after the two of them established the Hidden Moon Tower together, she realized how much silver it would cost to raise a wave of assassins, and the amount of money just to raise those people every month was eye-popping. Gao Xingzhi did business all over the Eastern Continent and infiltrated the Northern Wei Dynasty to get such a huge amount of silver. The Chen family's business is naturally not as good as Gao Xing, but it can also afford to support those people, which is really incredible.
I found out today that the money came from here.
Dinghai, Maritime, Corruption, East Palace, Chenjia......
It's all connected!
Pei Xie Tang sneered: "You took the money bags of the East Palace and the Chen family, no wonder His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is so angry!" ”
Now that the prince has no money bag, and Xie Yijiang refuses to sell his face, it means that Xie Yijiang is not on the prince's side at all. The prince compensated his wife and broke his army, so he was naturally angry. With Pei Xie Tang's understanding of him, he knew in his heart that it was not strange for the prince to make a concubine, I am afraid that now the prince thinks of the name Xie Feifei, and he can grit his teeth with hatred when he thinks of the Xie family.
It's just that Xie Feifei suffered for no reason.
However, thinking of what this person did in the past, Pei Xie Tang did not sympathize.
What is the cause will bear the fruit, Xie Feifei was going to climb the prince's bed at the beginning, and today he has been sacrificed by such an antagonism, and Xie Feifei deserves it!
But because she was pregnant herself, she knew that this joy was deep, and she was a little pitiful to learn that Xie Feifei's child was gone and was kicked out of the East Palace. Especially the child, she empathized, and secretly said that if her child was gone one day, she was afraid that she would be even thinner than Xie Feifei. Thinking about it like this, Xie Feifei seemed a lot more pleasing to the eye, and it was inevitable that he felt a little pity.
Xie Yijiang said: "I didn't know that Huang Peilin had such a relationship with the prince, even if I knew, I would not bend the law for personal gain, otherwise I would be ashamed of the trust of Your Majesty and the prince." ”
"Dad, you're doing the right thing." Pei Xie Tang smiled: "Such a person, except for him, he is to eliminate harm for the people, but now my father has offended the prince alone, but he has won the respect of the people of the world." If Dad really lets go of this villain for the sake of the prince, the person who bears the world's infamy will only be Daddy, then the reputation of Dad and our Xie family will be over, and then it will really outweigh the losses. ”
"Right now, I'm just worried that the prince will go crazy and do something incredible." Xie Yijiang sighed.
This is also the reason why he came to Zhu Xinzhi in a hurry to discuss.
Thinking of this, Xie Yijiang raised his eyes and looked at Pei Xie Tang suspiciously: "Cheng Yin, my father came over this time and found that you have changed a lot, how do you know so many things in the court?" ”
Pei Xie Tang looked at him, and for a while, he felt that his tongue was choking.
Facing this person's worried eyes, she remembered in her heart those days in the Xie family, Xie Zhijiang was kind to her in order to make up for her daughter's obedience, and she could feel that Xie Zhijiang really loved Xie Chengyin's daughter. Therefore, looking at Xie Yijiang's eyes, she almost wanted to rush out, tell the truth, and tell Xie Yijiang that she was not his daughter, and his daughter died as early as the ninth day of the second lunar month. Standing in front of him now is Pei Xie Tang, the lord of Tai'an who was unjustly killed on the Xuanjiao Tower.
Not to mention the court situation, but the intricate knuckles inside, she can see it clearly. She has been rolling in the court for many years, and she is no longer an ordinary person, she has a purpose.
She came with a deep hatred, and the sharp cold sword pointed at the prince who was high here, the prince of the East Palace......
