"What's wrong with this officer?"

Meng Yang stared at Jiang Chen with a gloomy face, and sneered: "Could it be that Lord Jiang wants to recommend Master Zhang Shuye Zhang?" ”

Jiang Chen shook his head: "Lord Zhang is busy planning the defense project in depth, so he is not suitable to be in charge of this matter!" This official wants to recommend Ma Wang Cheng Ma! ”

Kindness?

You actually recommended Cai Jing's person?

Meng Yang was stunned!

Cai You and Wang Hao were puzzled!

Cai Jing, Ma Wangcheng, and even Song Huizong all looked incredulous, and they suspected that they had heard it wrong.

Seeing Cai You's inquiry, Nie Shan explained with a wry smile:

"It's really inappropriate for Lord Meng to be in charge of this matter! Jiang Chen arrested several officials who were in cahoots with the old pole and the fake monk in the Pufa Temple, and several of them were the sons and nephews of Master Meng, and now the evidence is conclusive!

In addition, Meng Kui, the person in charge of the Taoyuan Cave who hindered us from arresting the old pole and rescuing the officials' families, was also a member of the Meng family! ”

"What?"

"Is the Meng family behind the old pole?"

Cai Jing, Cai You and everyone stared at Meng Yang with unkind eyes.

Song Huizong's face was even more gloomy.

"Even if the Meng family is not their backer, it must be a raccoon dog!"

Jiang Chen nodded affirmatively, and immediately recounted what he had seen and heard in the Pufa Temple and the Peach Blossom Cave brothel.

Although Meng Changling, Meng Yang, and Meng Kui were not well-known in later generations, there were even many Confucian scholars who praised them as patriots.

However, if you open the history books, you will find that the evil things done by the Meng family are not as bad as the six thieves of the Northern Song Dynasty.

For example, Meng Kuo played the same role as Zhu Mian in supervising the reclamation of Yue and the dedication of granite, and tens of thousands of people were killed at every turn.

It's just that because they only harm the people and don't do anything to the elite, the Confucian people have always had a good impression of them and frequently beautify them.

"Impossible! When pigs fly! ”

Meng Yang's face turned pale with shock, and he stared at Jiang Chen with great resentment: "Jiang Chen, what is the grievance between my Meng family and you, why do you wronged my Meng family so much?" ”

"Lord Cai Cai saw this with his own eyes throughout the whole process, and the account books of the Pufa Temple are here, and the officials and adults will know the truth at a glance!"

As Jiang Chen spoke, he directly took out the account book offered by Master Xinghui and handed it to Song Huizong.

Song Huizong saw Cai Xue nodding to confirm the matter, opened the account book with a gloomy face, and threw it to Cai Jingdao angrily after a while:

"Cai Xiang, take a look! Look at what good things my good courtiers have done! ”

"The old minister obeys!"

Cai Jing's eyelids jumped, and when he took a look, he was directly stunned: "How can there be so many officials involved in this matter?" And Jiang Gaocen? This...... Could there be some misunderstanding? ”

"There is no misunderstanding! After this official attacked the Pufa Temple, the first person to bring people to interfere was Jiang Gaocen! ”

Jiang Chen shook his head at Cai Jing, and said hatefully: "In the past, the lower officials didn't understand why there were women missing in Bianjing every day but they never caught the murderers, but now they understand!"

It turns out that the arresting officials and the thieves who abducted and sold women are basically in the same group!

These beasts should simply exterminate the Nine Clans! ”

"Not bad! Lao Chen agreed with Lord Jiang's proposal, those officials involved in the abduction and trafficking of women should all be executed by Ling Chi, and their families should be exterminated! ”

"If you don't do this, it's not enough to be angry, and if you don't, it's not enough to deter the law!"

Li Gang and Mei Zhili were so angry that their eyes were red, and they came out together.

"Minister's reconsideration!"

Chen Cisheng, Gong Fu and others immediately stood up.

"Raiding the family and exterminating the clan?"

Do you want to be so ruthless?

Meng Yang and Jiang Zhiqi's eyelids jumped wildly in shock, and they hurriedly knelt down and said, "Official, wronged!" The minister was completely ignorant of the matter. Please also ask the official family to take it lightly! I don't know what else is going on in this matter! ”

"How can this kind of thing be taken lightly?"

Jiang Chen glared at Meng Yang and Jiang Zhiqi angrily: "Anyone who abducts and sells women and children should be arrested and killed, the family property should be confiscated, and all the wives and daughters should be sent to the Teaching Department, and they must not be tolerated and given a light sentence!"

Not only that, but the imperial court should also order that anyone who encounters abducting and trafficking in women can be killed, not only innocent, but given a heavy reward, so as to completely prevent the continuation of such human tragedies! ”

"The minister seconded the proposal! Those who treat people as cattle do not deserve to live! ”

Nie Shan echoed loudly.

"I also agree with Jiang Chen's opinion!"

"If you don't have strict laws, it's not enough to deter thieves!"

He Zhizhong and Zheng Juzhong also spoke.

As they spoke, they couldn't help but look at Cai Jing gloatingly.

Because after they took a closer look at the account books, they found that many of the prisoners were officials on Cai Jing's side, or subordinates' nephews.

"What does Cai Xiang think?"

Song Huizong looked at Cai Jing with a dark face.

He knew that the officials below were corrupt, but he never expected that these officials would dare to collude with the old pole of the 'underground emperor' that he and the emperors of previous dynasties hated.

"Lao Chen seconded the proposal!"

Cai Jing knew that this matter had violated the taboo of imperial power, and whoever dared to intercede would have trouble with Song Huizong, so he said: "The official family, the old minister also agrees with the triage of the three divisions and strictly handles this case."

It's just that so many officials are involved, for the sake of the court's face, the old minister thinks it is not appropriate to open it to the people! ”

"Triage? Hum! ”

He Zhizhong sneered: "Cai Xiang, can't you see how many of the people involved in the list are from the three divisions or their family members and nephews?"

What credibility does today's Sansi have at all?

Judging from the original appearance, it is better to hand it over to the Imperial City Division, Kaifeng Mansion and Jinyi Wei for trial according to the precedent! ”

"What a good word!

The Imperial City Division is only loyal to the official family, and Jinyi Wei Xinjian is not deeply involved with the courtiers, so it will definitely be more efficient and fair for them to assist the Kaifeng Mansion in hearing this case. ”

Zheng Juzhong nodded in agreement, paused and said to Song Huizong:

"Official, now the people in the three divisions have openly colluded with the old pole underground, which is simply ignoring the imperial power, and the old minister implores the housekeeper to immediately order that all the criminals and their families be arrested and brought to justice, and strictly interrogated!"

"Quasi-play!"

Song Huizong turned around and sat back on the dragon chair and said: "Order the Imperial City Division, Jinyiwei and Kaifeng Mansion to jointly investigate and try this case, and anyone who dares to collude with underground bandits will be dealt with strictly and will not be tolerated."

In addition, Ma Wangcheng was ordered to temporarily command the Japanese army, cooperate with Kaifeng Mansion and the Jimin Army to maintain law and order in Bianjing, and exterminate the old pole! ”

"Your Ministers obey!"

Ma Wangcheng was overjoyed in his heart, and bowed with Jiang Chen and the others.

Cai Jing and Cai You were full of depression and apprehension, for fear that they would be implicated in this matter.

Meng Yang and Jiang Zhiqi were even more frightened, and they didn't care about accompanying Song Huizong, and after the matter was agreed, they left Yuqing Villa in a hurry.

Everyone didn't expect that Jiang Chen's investigation of the old pole not only had a lot of results, but also made a shocking case!
