Chapter 485: Driving the Tiger and Devouring the Wolf Han Qincha, who was red-eyed
"Where did you find this killer star, the key is to be so obedient."
Han Jiang was forced by Yang Zhi to be helpless, so he could only agree.
If you agree, you may be in trouble in the future, but if you don't, you will be unlucky now, so let's look at the present.
When Han Jiang rushed to Yangzhou Hou's Mansion with his people, the door of the mansion was already open, and Yangzhou Hou himself was sitting in the middle of a team of thugs, drinking tea leisurely, as if waiting for Han Jiang and others to arrive.
He squinted at Han Jiang and the others, and then skimmed the person who "reported" behind them, and said unhurriedly:
"But Ben Hou underestimated Lord Han, I didn't expect you to have such courage and scheming."
"I forbearance for half a year, and I was only willing to do it when the soldiers and horses of Zhongjing Hou arrived, which is really kind and patient!"
"You can live in a temple, and if you are extraordinary......"
He didn't believe that Cao Bin would be able to find out his details and find important "witnesses" just a few days after he arrived in Huainan, just in time to check when the secret vault in the north of the city was burned and the salt goods were temporarily stored in his mansion?
If Han Jiang was not the mastermind and had not planned for a long time, he would not believe it anyway.
However, he didn't know that Cao Bin had sent someone to keep an eye on Huainan a few months ago, and probably found out his roots.
Those "swallows" don't care about the laws of the court, under coercion and temptation, it is just easy to find someone to report and set a trap.
This is also the reason why Cao Bin sent Yan Qing to assist Yang Zhi, in addition to his cautious personality, he can suppress Yang Zhi's killing accidents, and he is also in charge of the "Swallow" spy with Shi Qian.
Hearing Yangzhou Hou's words, Han Jiang didn't know whether to be proud or depressed, and without Cao Bin's guidance, Yangzhou Hou decided that he was the mastermind.
This is a bit sloppy......
However, he is not blindly seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, he only knows the officials of the drill camp, he has long wanted to eradicate the tumor of Yangzhou Hou, since he has already done it, he cannot be allowed to retreat, and it is impossible to explain in public, so he said coldly:
"Yangzhou Hou, your housekeeper reported you for breaking the salt law, hoarding private salt, and plotting against you, please cooperate with Ben Qin's investigation."
As he spoke, as soon as he waved his hand, he was about to beckon the soldiers to break into the Hou Mansion.
Seeing this, Yangzhou Hou put down the tea bowl casually, and Sen Ran raised his head and said:
"Come on, please Danshu Iron Coupon!"
As he spoke, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he stared at Han Jiang tightly and said:
"If there is no Majesty's explicit decree, no one has the right to break into the mansion of the Marquis, today the Marquis is here, if you want to enter the mansion, you will kill the Marquis, I see if you Han Jiang dare to do it in front of the Danshu Iron Coupon given by Taizu......"
It's just that before he could finish speaking, Yang Zhi had already rushed forward like lightning, kicked him over, and scolded angrily:
"Straight lady thief, even if you dare to pretend to be garlic in front of Lord Qincha? My family Cao Hou Ye has never behaved like this. ”
Yangzhou Hou was almost kicked by him, fell to the ground, full of embarrassment, and could no longer maintain his composure, and scolded:
"You are bold, you dare to ......"
Seeing that Ding Keqing, the family member of the Yangzhou Hou Mansion, wanted to fight, Han Jiang secretly screamed bitterly, and hurriedly shouted:
"Yangzhou Hou is suspected of rebellion, not among the pardons of Danshu iron coupons, Ben Qin sent to be executed on the spot, whoever dares to stop the investigation of the case, punished for rebellion, will be given to me!"
This guy forced himself to button his hat, so don't blame yourself for being black.
While speaking, the soldiers behind Han Jiang rushed up, took Yangzhou Hou and Ding Keqing into custody, and rushed into the Hou Mansion.
Yangzhou Hou's face was extremely ugly at this time, he didn't expect Han Jiang to dare to break the net with him.
"Report, report to your lordship, Yangzhou Hou Mansion found a salt warehouse, about 50,000 stone salt goods."
"When we entered the mansion to search, another steward of the Hou Mansion committed suicide by taking poison......"
Not long after, when he heard the report from the soldiers, Han Jiang suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, no matter whether he crossed the line this time, as long as he gained something and grasped the handle of the Marquis of Yangzhou, he would be able to explain to the imperial court.
Thinking of this, Han Jiang glanced at Yangzhou Hou and sneered:
"Yangzhou Hou, Ben Qincha has already made it clear that the green salt transported from Western Xia will be distributed according to the state and county, and it is not allowed to hoard and refuse to sell, where did your salt come from?"
"As a noble of the imperial court, you not only violated the rules and participated in the sale of salt goods, but also knowingly violated the strict orders of the official, what is your intention?"
When Yangzhou Hou heard that the steward committed suicide, his heart relaxed a little, and he snorted coldly:
"The salt goods in the Benhou Mansion are only temporarily stored by the salt merchants who want to borrow my ship to transport the goods."
"Lord Han, you indiscriminately trespassed into the Hou Mansion, ignored the Danshu Iron Coupon, and forced the Hou Mansion servants to death, you are waiting to be impeached."
Han Jiang frowned, glanced at Yan Qing, and saw that he didn't say anything, so he had to say noncommittally:
"Now that there is human and material evidence, there is no room for you to deny it...... Come on, temporarily seal up the Yangzhou Hou Mansion, and escort the Yangzhou Hou to the Qin Mission to await trial! ”
Subsequently, he carefully inquired about the clansmen of the Hou Mansion in Yangzhou, consulted the account books copied from the Hou Mansion, and found many doubts that could be studied in detail.
The next day, just as he was about to make persistent efforts to try all the evidence of Yangzhou Hou in one fell swoop, the following officials suddenly came to report:
"Oh no, Lord Chincha."
"Early this morning, all the salt merchants in Yangzhou went on strike, and they said that Lord Qincha did not believe his words, did not exchange salt money, and also withheld the salt goods they deposited in the Hou Mansion in Yangzhou."
"The people who can't buy salt have come to petition...... I heard that the salt merchants in Huainan were going to strike the market. ”
The salt goods of the imperial court were transported and sold by salt merchants, and then taxes were collected according to the quantity. When the salt merchants boycotted the market, the imperial court had no way to quickly ship the salt out and sell it to the people.
Hearing this, Han Jiang suddenly became anxious.
The Marquis of Yangzhou originally had a small power in the imperial court, and he forcibly arrested the Marquis of Yangzhou, and he was already in danger of being impeached and dismissed.
If you add the local officials in Yangzhou to the book, I am afraid that after the review of Yangzhou, I am afraid that I will be finished! So he hurriedly called Yang Zhi and Yan Qing to the front and asked:
"Two generals, what should I do next, can Marquis Cao have an explanation?"
Yan Qing smiled:
"Lord Han, Master Hou just asked me to wait for the assistant adults, everything in the matter of salt affairs is up to the adults, and the Lord Hou has nothing to explain."
When Han Jiang heard this, he couldn't help but be a little speechless, and forced himself to investigate the case with a knife, which is called completely up to himself? It seems that Cao Bin, the bastard, is determined to throw the black cauldron completely on his head.
In desperation, he had to go to the concert first, explain the situation in Yangzhou to the imperial court, and send a private message to Wang Yanling, asking the other party to help delay time and support the strict investigation of Yangzhou Hou.
Anyway, he still has salt in his hand, even if he violates the imperial court system and first uses the earthquake to distribute salt to the people, he must completely nail the crime of Yangzhou Hou under pressure, as long as he falls, those salt merchants will not dare to make waves.
The current situation has forced him to red-eyed, and he no longer cares about anything else, and is bent on destroying the Marquis of Yangzhou and the salt merchants......
