Chapter 433: Jiangnan Officialdom is a nest

Hangzhou's Thorn Mansion, connected to Zhu Yuan, is no less large and luxurious than Yanfu Palace in Bianjing.

After Zhu Mian fled to Hangzhou, he moved everything that could be moved in the same paradise built in Banzhou, including 3,000 beauties and nearly 10,000 private guards, as well as shocking wealth worth hundreds of millions of yuan.

When Jiang Chen arrived with more than 100 officials and no math students, the Jimin army, which had surrounded the place, was confronting Zhu Mian's private soldiers one by one.

Zhou Dong didn't expect that Zhu Yuan would build such a high wall and deep building before he came, in order to avoid unnecessary casualties, he waited patiently while ordering the engineers to escort the siege equipment over.

Seeing Jiang Chen's arrival, he immediately brought Song Jiang and the others over to Shi Li and explained: "Son, Zhu Yuan is easy to defend and difficult to attack, in order to reduce casualties, his subordinates think that they should wait for the siege equipment to be escorted up, and then launch an attack at the same time with the four gates......"

"The full authority is under the overall command of Zhou Lao, there is no need to ask about everything, I just look at the results."

Jiang Chen nodded, and had no intention of pointing fingers at Zhou Tong.

"Thank you Childe for your trust, my subordinates will not disappoint Childe!"

Zhou Tong was relieved and gratefully saluted Jiang Chen.

While the two were talking, a slightly chubby man suddenly stood on the wall tower and shouted: "Dare to ask who is the new Jiangnan Economic Strategy Envoy Jiang Chenjiang?" What do you intend to do when you lead your troops to besiege the Assassin's Mansion? ”

"Who is this?"

Jiang Chen frowned and looked up.

"Lord Huijinglu, this person is Zhu Ruxian, the son of Zhu Mian's thief, and he has done no less evil than Zhu Mian!

No matter who it is, if there is a wood or a stone that he sees, he will put a seal!

Not counting the seizure of people's property, even the wife and daughter of the owner of the house did not let go, and they were all caught in Zhu Yuan for their father and son to have sexual pleasure day and night. It's just a beast! ”

A dark and thin middle-aged man wearing a fourth-grade official uniform bowed to Jiang Chen from three meters away.

As his words fell, Cai Jun, Xu Zhu and the others immediately glared at him angrily.

Jiang Chen was happy, looked at the official a few times and said, "I don't know what this adult is called?" ”

"Xiaguan Xu Lin, who was the prefect of Mingzhou, offended Zhu Mian's father and son because of the disaster in Jiangnan, and has now been removed from his official position. If it weren't for the suddenness of Lord Jingluo's arrival, I'm afraid that Xia Guan would be in prison now. ”

As Xu Lin spoke, a wry smile and a look of happiness appeared on his resolute black face.

"Yes!

In this way, you must not be Zhu Mian's gang of traitors.

Now is the time to employ people, and this Jingluo intends to order you to temporarily take the post of prefect of Hangzhou, command the 3,000 Jimin army, screen officials, and arrest Zhu Mian's comrades!

Do you dare to take orders? ”

Jiang Chen directly threw out an olive branch, he now needs a helper who knows the roots of Hangzhou, Xu Lin is undoubtedly a good choice.

At the same time, he also has the intention of buying horse bones.

"This?"

Xu Lin was stunned!

More than 100 officials were also stunned, and Qi Qi looked at Cai Jun with complicated expressions.

Cai Jun was directly angry, glared at Jiang Chen with red eyes and said, "What does Lord Jinglu mean by this?" The prefect of Hangzhou is an order of the imperial court, how can you remove it at will? ”

"Not bad! You're completely trespassing, aren't you afraid that I'll wait for you to join you? ”

Xu Zhu, Ying Andao and the others immediately jumped out angrily and nervously.

They all know that as soon as Cai Jun falls, they will be next.

"Join me? Hehe, you don't have a chance! ”

Jiang Chen shook his head amusedly, and directly glanced at Liu Yuancheng.

Liu Yuancheng immediately took out a holy decree from his backpack and read it out loud: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said: Hangzhou prefect Cai Jun, Xu Zhu, Ying Andao, Wang Zhonghong and others are corrupt and bend the law and disregard people's lives...... Deliberately concealing the banditry in Jiangnan, deceiving the imperial court, and deceiving the official family is a heinous crime that is truly unforgivable!

On the day of the decree, remove all official positions and go to prison for investigation! The vacant position will be temporarily replaced by the new Jiangnan Economic Strategy Envoy Jiang Chen, and then reported to the imperial court for approval......"

"Huh?"

"Cai Jun is Cai Xiang's fake son, and he actually has to go to prison for investigation?"

"How is this possible?"

More than 100 officials were stunned and felt incredulous.

Cai You, Xu Zhu and Ying Andao were even more shocked and frightened, and shouted wildly: "Fake, this holy decree is fake, Jiang Chen, you must be falsely spreading the holy decree and slandering and framing!" The lower officials don't believe it, and they don't accept it! ”

"See for yourselves!"

Jiang Chen directly ordered Liu Yuancheng to unfold the holy decree and face Cai Jun and other officials.

"This ......"

"Really! This decree is true! ”

"Well, there is an official jade seal printed here, and it can't be wrong!"

The officials saw it and quickly retreated, away from Cai Jun and the others.

Although Cai Jun and the others had expected this situation, they still couldn't accept it when it came to the end, and said with a stiff neck: "Wronged, the lower officials and others are wronged, we want to see Zhu Tingshi, and we want to defend ourselves!"

Otherwise, who knows if this holy decree was stolen from the official family and printed and forged? ”

"Self-justification?"

Jiang Chen looked at them amusedly, and mocked: "You guys should die!" In order to keep Cai Xuan, who was plotting to hoard grain and make trouble, Cai Xiang even sold his father-in-law Wang Zhongqi and his cronies Jiang Zhiqi and Wei Bozou and others.

Do you still care about your life or death?

I'm not afraid to tell you that when I give you a confession, Cai Xiang is on the spot! The edict was written by his henchman Liu Xunren!

Not only that, but the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty want to deal with you quickly! What are you fantasizing about? ”

"What?"

"How so? How so? ”

Cai Jun, Xu Zhu and Ying Andao were so satisfied and frightened that their bodies went limp, and they sat down directly on the ground.

"Humph!"

"Come on, take them all! Seal the mansion and interrogate the henchmen! ”

Jiang Chen waved his hand, and a team of guards took off the tops of Cai Jun and the others and took them down the lock.

"Cross-examining henchmen?"

Cai Jun's cronies were so frightened that cold sweat broke out on their backs.

Xu Lin looked excited, and said loudly: "The official family is Shengming! The Lord is wise! Xia Guan is familiar with Cai Jun and others, and is willing to personally lead the team, confiscate their various properties, and lock up their cronies. ”

"The lower officials are also willing to serve the dogs and horses for the master of the Jinglu!"

Seeing that Cai Jun and the others were decided, several officials immediately stood up.

Jiang Chen knew that those who dared to jump out at this time either had a grudge against Zhu Mian and his gang, or they were really innocent.

So after a little inquiry, they let them replace Xu Zhu and Ying Andao, and began to screen officials.

In less than two cups of tea, more than 100 officials were arrested crying and shouting, leaving less than 10 people in their place.

But this does not mean that these dozen or so people are innocent, such as Zha Helin of the Haining Cha family and Chi Bian Hong of the Jiangnan Chi family, all of whom are people of big clans that no one dares to provoke.

Jiang Chen also had no intention of directly acting against the wealthy families of the Jiangnan family, because what he wanted to do was to turn these families into entrepreneurs and completely pull them to the side of the family.
