When Yu Fei brought people to the household department, Yang Xu had already taken Jinyiwei to seal all the account books.

Qian Ning, the secretary of the Nanjing household department, looked at his subordinates and Yang Xu's theory with a gloomy face.

Yang Xu had a cold face, no matter what these people said, it was just a sentence of "acting on orders".

After seeing Yu Fei, the main master, coming, Qian Ning sneered and said loudly:

"Yu Shilang is such a big official, and he really deserves to be from the capital."

After Yang Xu saw Yu Fei, he also shook off everyone in the account opening department, stepped forward and saluted:

"My lord, all the books have been sealed."

Yu Fei ignored Qian Ning, and first picked up Yang Xu and said with a smile:

"Okay, Lord Yang is neat and will not disappoint the official."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Qian Ning and said:

"This official came to Jiangnan to inspect, and he was ordered by the king, so the official authority naturally cannot be small, what? Does Lord Qian want to defy His Majesty? ”

The two soldiers of the Eagle Yang Army who followed Yu Fei behind him were also extremely obedient and showed the royal flag.

Qian Ning looked at the royal flag behind Yu Fei, his face changed several times in an instant, and he arched his hand:

"The lower officials don't dare."

Yu Fei sneered and said:

"This official is ordered to check the taxes owed in Jiangnan over the years, and I hope that Lord Qian and my colleagues in the household department in Nanjing will go to work elsewhere first."

The word Nanjing bites particularly hard.

Qian Ning's chubby round face was blue and red, and after a long time, he gritted his teeth and said word by word:

"Down... Official... Follow... Life. ”

"Then please, Lord Qian."

Qian Ning snorted and shouted "go".

After finishing speaking, he strode out of the Nanjing Hubu Yamen.

After Yu Fei left, he ordered Jinyiwei and Yingyangjun to surround the household yamen, and not a single fly could fly out.

Yang Xu took Yu Fei to open the room where the account books were blocked, looked at the room full of account books, and said worriedly:

"My lord, whether our brothers are investigating the news or slashing people with knives, we really can't do anything to check the account books."

But he knew that Yu Fei came to Nanjing to bring all the fighting men, but he didn't bring Mr. Bookkeeper.

Yu Fei smiled and said:

"What to look for? Wait for them to take the bait. ”

Yang Xu looked puzzled, Yu Fei didn't explain, threw out a large ingot of silver and said:

"Go and let my brother buy some good ones, let's have a big meal, I'm afraid we will be busy tomorrow."

Yang Xu took the silver, and after agreeing, he left with a mind full of questions.

......

Next.

Not long after dawn, many people surrounded the yamen of the household department one after another, pointing at the soldiers of the Eagle Yang Army standing outside.

Seeing that more and more people were gathering and the voice was getting louder and louder, Yang Xu hurriedly went to see Yu Fei.

I saw that Yu Fei was slowly punching, and he didn't seem to care about the disturbances outside.

And Yang Xu, who was originally anxious, saw Yu Fei's slow boxing, as if a basin of cold water had been poured on his heart, and he calmed down instantly, and stood aside and waited for Yu Fei to finish the fight before he reported:

"My lord, many people from outside have gathered around the yamen, discussing the matter of clearing tax arrears."

Yu Fei picked up the white towel on the side and wiped the sweat stains on his head before he smiled:

"Haven't fought yet?"

Yang Xu was stunned, shook his head and said:

"Not yet."

Yu Fei shook his head and sighed:

"These people are really used to being comfortable, and they procrastinate in doing something."

"Let's go, go out and have a look."

Yang Xu took the white towel in Yu Fei's hand and nodded yes.

When I came to the outside of the mansion, I saw that thousands of people were already around.

Just after Yu Fei appeared, suddenly a voice sounded in the crowd, "It's this dog official, who wants to force everyone to death." ”

As soon as the words fell, another voice sounded: "Kill this dog officer." ”

After the two voices sounded, seven or eight stones were thrown towards Yu Fei.

There was a commotion in the crowd, and another voice came out, "Follow this dog official." ”

After Yu Fei turned his head to dodge the stones, he sneered, and his figure flashed and rushed into the crowd in an instant.

I only heard a few muffled sounds of "bang" and "bang", and in less than a moment, several big men mixed in the crowd were thrown in front of the yamen by Yu Fei.

After finding out these people, Yu Fei also jumped from the crowd to the front of the yamen, and shouted:

"The official was ordered to check the arrears, but if there are really difficulties, after the official finds out, there will naturally be a reduction and blending, but if you dare to attack the yamen, do you want to rebel?"

After finishing speaking, he also took out Yang Xu's embroidered spring knife, and cut off the head of a big man who was still struggling to get up, and the blood splattered three or four feet.

The people in the crowd were frightened by Yu Fei and took a few steps back, and when they heard the word rebellion, their legs began to tremble, and they hurriedly shouted:

"The adults are wronged, and the grass people and others will never dare to rebel."

Yu Fei saw that he temporarily shocked everyone, and shouted again:

"Then why don't you leave quickly?"

As soon as Yu Fei finished speaking, the crowd began to disperse in an uproar, and in less than a cup of tea, there was no one to be seen.

Throwing the embroidered spring knife that was still dripping blood to Yang Xu, Yu Fei said lightly:

"I'll leave it to you, be careful, these people have martial arts."

Yang Xu wiped off the blood stains on the blade with the white cloth that Yu Fei had used, and after putting the knife into the sheath, he bowed down and said:

"Don't worry, my lord, we don't dare to boast about anything else, this interrogation method is my Jinyiwei's eating guy, it is a stubborn stone, and the subordinate can also let him speak."

Yu Fei didn't bother to listen to his bragging, waved his hand, turned around and entered the yamen.

What Yang Xu said made the stubborn stone open his mouth was naturally bragging, but the methods of this brocade guard were indeed extraordinary, but in less than half a day, he pried open the mouths of these people.

Yu Fei gave an order, and the Jinyi Guard and the Eagle Yang Army scattered out.

The several families who were taken advantage of knew that it was not good when they received the news of the miss, and they were ready to run away, but they didn't expect Jinyiwei to act too fast and block everyone.

The next step is to pull out the radish and bring out the mud, and in less than half a month, there are more than ten large and small families, which were uprooted by Yu Fei.

It looks scary, in fact, these are small shrimps, but they were deliberately thrown out by someone to appease the emperor's anger, but the real people behind the scenes did not show up.

Yu Fei was not in a hurry, and while interrogating, he was punished for the crime that should be punished, and the head was killed for the head that should be killed. After all, there are too many people, and the prison cells of the Nanjing government are no longer enough to hold them.

Yu Fei used this slow knife to cut the flesh to make those people behind the scenes frightened, and then took risks and made some shocking cases, wouldn't it be wonderful to catch them all in one go?

Otherwise, if you check it so slowly, Yu Fei will have so much time to play with them?

With the arrest of the Kang family, the largest salt merchant in Yangzhou, the big fish behind the scenes finally couldn't sit still.

Many officials in Nanjing City began to want to inquire about Yu Fei's mouth, and Yu Fei also met with him, but no matter how these people tried and how vaguely they expressed their willingness to pay off the arrears over the years, Yu Fei did not answer.

In his heart, he has already sentenced these officials who came to him to death.

The south has been peaceful for a long time, and the influence of the imperial court is not as good as that of the north, but these people have forgotten how their ancestors were rectified by Emperor Taizu back then.

In a secluded courtyard in the north of Nanjing, there are people with heads and faces in the south of the Yangtze River, including Xu Li, the Duke of Wei Guogong of Nanjing, Cao Lan, the eunuch of Nanjing, Qian Ning, the secretary of the household department, and the military department. The Criminal Department also has Shangshu or Shilang characters here.

The rest are either wealthy businessmen with huge family assets, or landlords and gentry for hundreds of years, and among them there is a thin old monk, who is the abbot of Southern Shaolin.
