"Brocade...... Jin Yiwei?"

In the Ming Dynasty, for most people, they had to step back when they heard this word.

The reason why Mao Wenyu was able to walk in so swaggering just now was because of his flying fish suit. If he were a countryman in rough linen, he would have been mixed in, and one of those many pairs of eyes would have seen him blow him away.

Speaking of which, this Mao language is also ruthless, and in front of so many people, he directly wiped this person's neck. Some of the soldiers had never seen such a scene, and their faces turned pale with fright.

Mao Yuyu sneered, "This person insulted His Highness with words, and he was not wronged at all when he died."

Then he turned his gaze to the middle-aged man who was holding the corpse and crying, "Is he going to be arrested too?"

"Yes...... Yes." There was a soldier who couldn't stand Mao Wen's gaze and nodded in a daze.

"You'll catch it!" Mao Wenyu walked over, straightened his crooked hat, and patted it, "It's a little bit of a joke." Remember one sentence, a soldier has to be a soldier."

With that, he left the compound.

At this time, he didn't know that the person he killed on the spot was Huang Zongliang's second brother.

After that, Mao Wenyu asked people to take him to the governor's yamen.

As soon as Wang Hua heard that it was Jinyiwei, he knew that the vanguard of the people sent by His Highness had arrived, so he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and no matter how chaotic the situation in Zhejiang was, it could be stabilized.

「…… Speaking of which, the political envoys and the envoys have already been arrested by you. And what about the people in their yamen?" Mao Wenyu first came to understand the situation.

"As long as it is involved, it is being arrested, but in this way, the official office and yamen in Zhejiang will be empty, and many government affairs will be delayed." Wang Hua asked, "I don't know if Your Highness can arrange it for the successor officials."

Mao Wenwen was not worried, "Wang Zhongcheng, as far as these bird officials in Zhejiang, without them, the people would live a better life."

What does this say...... It's not rough talking. Wang Hua and Mei Kejia glanced at each other, and expressed surprise at the roughness and delicacy displayed by the commander of the brocade guard.

"What about the two masterminds? Wang Zhongcheng, can you let me meet them?" Mao also added a sentence, "Running eucalyptus is Jinyiwei's specialty, if Zhongcheng is worried about Zhejiang's government affairs, he might as well work harder."

Now that the brocade guard is here, it's nothing to hand over the eucalyptus. They are all people sent by the East Palace, and they don't pay so much attention to it.

But there is one thing that Wang Hua wants to talk about. He brought the two words written by Mei Kejia on the eucalyptus table to Mao Wen's eyes.

"Wako...... Is there a trace?"

Judging by his reaction, Mei Kejia knew that when these people went out of Beijing, the prince should have an explanation.

Wang Hua shook his head and replied: "Not long after Zhejiang received the news of Teng Xiang Zuowei, we will arrest the people immediately, so it stands to reason that it should be too late, but whether anyone dares to secretly collude with the Japanese invaders, we don't know. Therefore, it is important to make this point clear when interrogating Li and the party. As long as they are not in shape, and there are Tengxiang Left Guards in charge, then Zhejiang Zhiyu will not form a big counterattack this time."

Of course, there will be a political backlash in any way. Unless it is made into a conspiracy against the iron eucalyptus. ….

Mao Wenyu originally wanted to directly try the criminals first, but when he heard this, he suddenly had some thoughts, "Why...... Don't let them collude with the pirates?"

Wang Hua and Mei Kejia were shocked when they said this, because they had not considered this direction at all. One of them is a civil official and a businessman, and he would never want the situation in Zhejiang to change so drastically.

But Mao is a different person from their perspective.

He spread out his hand and said, "Zhongcheng is worried that someone will collude with the Japanese Kou, this is the feeling that the gentry in Zhejiang give you, so it means that someone dares to do this. This, but it is a great sin to destroy the nine clans, there is such a person who does not let him show his origin, and still tells him to hide?"

For Mao Wenwen, this kind of adventure is very different from what he has experienced before. And Zhang Yong is right behind, who can turn the sky upside down?

Mei Kejia's heart trembled, what time is the crown prince

waited for such a ruthless person. He thought for a moment and explained, "It's not that anyone dares to collude with the Japanese invaders. It's just that as soon as Teng Xiang Zuowei came, many people were cornered, and there was no way out."

"Zhongcheng, is that so?"

"Indeed."

"But the king wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die, isn't that what these officials say?"

"Anyway, it's better to keep out of the mess or not." Wang Hua is not a killing machine, he is an official who wants to govern one side, "If there is a mess, will others say that it is caused by His Highness's excessive behavior in Zhejiang?"

When it comes to the interests of the prince, Mao Wenyu doesn't dare to be too casual.

"That's ...... Let's talk about it when Grandpa Zhang comes. I'll interrogate those two first, and maybe I'll learn more."

As he left, Mei Kejia bowed slightly in respect. got up again and glanced at Wang Hua, and saw that his eyes were a little tight, so he guessed in his heart that the status of this brocade guard in the capital was not low. However, Mei Kejia already felt before, that is, as soon as he talked about His Royal Highness, Mao's tone changed.

This kind of person is like this, the more arrogant he is outside, the more well-behaved he is in the East Palace, because all the dissatisfaction he has caused has to be suppressed by the East Palace for him.

Lonely.

But he said that Mao Wenwen's side, the people from the governor's yamen found him a well-lit and clean room, but he didn't even have the idea of resting, anyway, he didn't feel tired.

So the people are all muttering, in the end, it is Jinyiwei, and the arraignment of prisoners is addictive!

Mainly for Mao Wenwen, what can be caught on the surface has been caught by the governor's yamen, so it is natural to pry out the names from the mouths of Li and the party. This Wang Hua is also capable, and when Zhang Yong has not yet arrived, he made a decision and did not give these people a chance to react, it is estimated that these people will not be able to do it even if they want to cause a big mess.

[In other words, it is the best way to read aloud and listen to books at present, @

Target.

So even if there were screams in this room, it was just screaming, and Mao Yu really didn't hear a single useful word.

First of all, Mao Wenyu didn't want to kill people, so in the end he seemed to have some appreciation and said, "Dang Shanji...... I've tried so many prisoners, and you're the hardest of them. Let's drag it off. Oh, yes."

Mao Wenyu squatted down and whispered in his ear, "Interrogating prisoners is something I like very much. Now let me tell you, you and that Li Yancai, whoever confesses first will be less tortured, otherwise, the other person will be tortured all the time. I'll say the same to him in a moment. What do you think? Isn't it fun??"

This is taught by the prince, which tests human nature and is tried and tested.

However, Dang Shanji did not seem to react.

"Stupid people. Stupid." Mao Yu judged many people, so he summed it up in this way, "Plug his mouth and make him only allowed to hear, not to speak." Take the next person."

Li Yancai's image is similar to that of Dang Shanji, but he is fatter than Dang Shanji, and his emotions are much calmer, and he doesn't shout as soon as he comes up.

But the arrival of Jinyiwei made him very alert, and he recognized the flying fish suit.

"The people sent by His Highness have arrived."

"You look smarter, you should make smart choices." Mao Yuyu pointed to Dang Shanji lying on the ground, "I have already told him just now, the two of you, whoever confesses first will be spared torture, and the other person will have to understand the means of the edict." ….

Li Yancai said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "In the twelfth year of Hongzhi, His Royal Highness has a clear decree that Beizhen Fusi shall not abuse torture, and if you want to use it, you must also get the consent of Your Highness before it can be implemented! What you are using now is lynching!"

"Then do you think I have His Highness's approval?" Mao Wen's slender eyes laughed, which made people feel very sinister.

"...... you" Li Yan was asked like this, it's really hard to say, after all, people are from Beijing, "Your Highness really has a will?" We're all readers!"

"You're more shameless than him." Mao Wenyu hated this person very much, "Tian Er, break off his three fingers."

"Good!"

"What?!" Li Yancai is going crazy, what does it mean to break his fingers, and say the same as buying vegetables on the street, "Where are you so judged? Before you ask anything, you will be tortured when you come up!"

"Jin Yiwei is the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, and the imperial power is licensed, so we will judge it like this. Do it!"

Tian Er didn't like this scholar who was full of eyes at first glance, so he pressed his trapped hand when he went up, and then picked out a middle finger.

With this force, Li Yancai's body curled up and hid back, and the expression on his face was directly hideous, "Ah! Pain! It hurts, it hurts!"

Later, he could only kneel on the ground, leaning on his back, which was considered to give his fingers a survival angle, "...... You, you ask me first, and then it's not too late to torture!"

Hearing him say this, Dang Shanji, who had been in a ball, still made a sound, and kept twisting his body.

Li Yancai didn't dare to look at him, so he shrank his head and cried, "It's too painful."

Mao Wenyu couldn't help grinning, "That's it, you're very annoying. According to the rules I said earlier, as long as you say so, you can avoid torture, as for Dang Shanji...... Tian Er, you take it down and give him a few fresh tricks to taste."

"Yes!"

"Wait, I found that you are very insidious." Mao Wenyu walked over from there and patted Li Yancai unceremoniously on the face, and then said to the people on the ground, "Do you hate him very much? I'll give you a chance. After being tortured for a while, he will let you speak, and you will also confess when the time comes, anyway, he will confess, and it is useless for you to hold on. But...... If the two of you don't explain the same, you still can't get away. So you'd better tell the truth, and if it's not the same, it's going to be a disaster. Even if you bite someone, you have to tell me the same name."

Because Dang Shanji couldn't speak, he could only 'woo and scold, but when he was helped up, he still made a gesture to rush over and hit Li Yancai, but Li Yancai was startled.

Li Yancai probably knew what he had done, so he also spread it on the ground all of a sudden, and it hurt like a heart

Cry.

Mao Yu reminded the recorder on the side, "Record in Eucalyptus."

"Prisoner Li Yancai, do you admit that you embezzled Wei Bin's stolen silver?"

Li Yancai cried like a tearful person, where could he still care about talking, Mao Yuyu didn't like him and lost patience, "Do you say it!"

Li Yancai's shoulders shook in fright, and after sobbing a few times, he began to explain, "Cheng... Admit it."

"It is said that this place in Zhejiang is a place where government and business are integrated, who has sent it to you?"

"I...... I've only been here for a short time, and it's mainly just three." Li Yancai said and began to cry again, "Shangcha, I am wronged. Originally, I didn't want to be greedy for that silver, but not long after I took office, he took the initiative to introduce those people to meet me, and he deliberately dragged me into the water!" ….

"Dang Shanji has been in Zhejiang for a long time, how much do you know about him?"

……

There are many things that are difficult to ask in this way. Even Mao Wenyu felt frightened, this place in Zhejiang, it is impossible not to have a nest!

Originally, it seemed that they were just people who embezzled together and shared a sum of money, but in fact, Qiu Zongxia, the prefect of Hangzhou, was promoted by Dang Shanji, and Xu Ruoqin, the prefect of Huzhou, was the person of the former political envoy Qian Shi, who had entered Beijing and became a Beijing official, and now he is the Shaoqing of Guanglu Temple, and his grade is not as good as that of the political envoy, but he can always see important members of the imperial court.

Soon after Li Yancai arrived, he began to consciously corrupt him, first instructing the businessmen Huang, Song, and Li, who had always had economic dealings with him, to arrange beauties for Li Yancai and take him to listen to music and drink.

When he succeeded, he let him take the silver, and this one was a boat.

But is Li Yancai such a simple person?

He was recommended by Liu Daxia to be transferred from Huguang, and after his explanation, he really didn't know Liu Daxia, but he knew one person, that is, Cui Xiu, the political envoy of Henan.

Cui Xiu is an ordinary person, but he has a powerful brother-in-law, this person's name is Zhang Cheng.

Li Yan was only halfway through the monk, and there were not many things he could say, because he only came into contact with Zhang Cheng after turning a corner, and Liu Daxia recommended him, in fact, because Zhang Cheng hinted on the side. On that day, Zhang Cheng didn't mention Li Yancai at all, but in fact, in the previous contact, Zhang Cheng had already let Liu Daxia know about the existence of this person through chatting.

For Mao Wen, what is more valuable is what Dang Shanji said, because he has been in Zhejiang for a long time.

Dang Shanji scolded a lot of words, 'Li Yancai is not a person, and after that, now he has begun to confess, but if he doesn't confess, he is just being punished for Li Yancai's brute, which is unwilling."

According to what he knew, the reason why Xu Ruoqin was so active was because the Xu family had a maritime background, so he was dissatisfied with Mei Kejia. Second, because after Qian Shi entered Beijing, he was always looking for an opportunity to bring him over, and he wanted to go himself, how to go? Naturally, it is necessary to 'break through and become famous.'

Mao Wenwen heard this strangely, "Although a Shaoqing of Guanglu Temple is said to be a Beijing official, what is it in Beijing? There must be someone behind him, right?"

Dang Shanji shook his head weakly, "Then, I really don't know. You've got to get him up and ask."

"Then what about the 180,000 taels of silver, who are you going to give to the capital?"

"That's not meant to be sent to Kyori." Dang Shanji laughed, "That's Li Yancai's deception, not only the governor, he even lied to me. That's what he was going to send to Jing'an County, Jiangxi. What does Your Highness mean exactly? To what extent do you want to find this eucalyptus? The people I'm talking about now will be killed if they are really killed. But I know that Xu Ruoqin, the prefect of Huzhou, was born in a merchant family, and it is rumored to be related to King Huai. Do you want to check that too?"

"King Huai?!" Mao Wenyu's face finally changed.

"So I said, to what extent does Your Highness want to investigate, we have all killed these people, and we have been involved in the Huai Wangfu, what should we do with it?!"

King Huai was the seventh son of Emperor Renzong and the grandson of Zhu Di. When he was first crowned King Huai, the domain was Guangdong, and later because that place was full of miasma, he was not used to it, so he moved to Raozhou, Jiangxi Province in the first year of orthodoxy. At this time, it is already the fourth generation

King Huai, named Zhu Jiandian, in terms of generation, is Zhu Houzhao's grandfather's generation. ….

Mao Yu thought that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had indeed not explained this section. Once it comes to King Huai...... The main reason is that the emperor can't get through.

"Tsk. I'll have to verify what you're saying."

"Shangcha just grabbed Xu Ruoqin and asked."

Mao Wenyu now knows why Zhang Cheng committed suicide, because he was involved in it, let him kill these people, how to kill them?

If anyone reports him, he will be ruined by that time.

But if he hangs himself, the matter involves the vassal king, and it is difficult for His Royal Highness to find out, and there is a high probability that this matter will not be resolved.

Because according to the character of today's saint, it is very, very difficult for you to let him be ruthless to someone surnamed Zhu.

With such a result, Mao Wenyu came back to see Wang Hua, and the two of them sat facing each other, and they fell silent for a while. It was about a stick of incense before Wang Hua began to speak,

According to the beheading line drawn by His Royal Highness, more than 30,000 taels of silver will be killed, and it is estimated that more than 30 people will not survive. I have also written about the administrative affairs of Zhejiang, and all affairs will be temporarily replaced by the governor's yamen, so that the governor's yamen will also be short of manpower."

"Don't worry, according to the distance, Grandpa Zhang won't be able to do it for a few days." Although Mao Wenyu said this, he himself was preoccupied.

The question now is not who to catch, how many people to catch, and who to kill. Now the problem is that the vassal king is involved.

"If it weren't for Xu Ruoqin, I would still have a way." Mao Wen said hatefully, "But it's this Xu Ruoqin's sloppy performance, but the Xu family has something to do with King Huai!"

In that case, he didn't know whether to continue to dig deeper. In case the investigation is deep, and the emperor is not satisfied at that time, what should I do?

But if the investigation is not deep, Xu Ruoqin is not clear.

As for Wang Hua, what he saw was another shocking aspect: these officials in Zhejiang were inextricably linked with each other, and they had ties with merchants from all over the country, and the merchants had silver.

Therefore, local officials, such as Dang Shan Guitar, do not have the financial resources of the Xu family, so they rely on this silver to support the children of the family to study for the imperial examination, and once they ascend to the rank of scholar, they naturally want to connect with him.

As a result, some of the officials arrested this time will have relatives and friends who are officials in other provinces or in Beijing. Just like Cui Xiu, the political envoy of Henan, since he was bribed by Li Yancai, he also had to pay bribes, so Henan's officialdom was also involved.

In this way, officials protect each other, the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty is a net, and how many people are not in the net?

Can't, really kill them all, right?

So when the eucalyptus reaches this rhythm, there are two problems, one is the vassal king, and the other is that it is too wide. In fact, it is essentially a problem, but King Huai is a little special.

In the next few days, people like Xu Ruoqin and others were arrested one after another, and what continued to be interrogated was indeed almost what Dang Shanji said, but some details were richer.

Zhang Yong entered the city of Hangzhou with soldiers and horses, but he didn't expect to encounter political problems.

As soon as those eucalyptus rolls appeared, his head was about to crack, and he rubbed his temples and asked, "Boss Mei, you have always been resourceful, like this situation, is there a way?" ….

Mei Kejia only knew a lot of things before, and he only knew a superficial thing, as if he had pulled out such a deep thing, which really shocked him, "The businessman relied on bribing the government to go private, and the smuggling profits obtained in turn bribed the officials with one hand and cultivated the children of the family with the other. No wonder Zhang Cheng didn't dare to come, his father-in-law is a confidant of His Royal Highness, so he should be a little hesitant at this time, right?"

It is difficult for Zhang Yong to deny this sentence, "If you want to catch it like this, there must be hundreds of people and more than a dozen families in Zhejiang alone!" It even involves the King of Huai..."

"When my father-in-law came, did His Highness explain anything?"

"Your Highness said that you must make Zhejiang eucalyptus clear."

That being said, but in the end you dragged King Huai into it and tried it.

Mei Kejia also frowned

"At this time, it's actually secondary to think about everything else. There are many things that are decided by the courage of the king, and if they are really done, they will be done, so what can they do? So at this time, I can only rely on my father-in-law to judge, what kind of person does my father-in-law think, what kind of person is His Highness?"

"Nature is the master of wise decisions!"

"So will His Highness let thousands of Teng Xiang Zuowei go to Zhejiang in vain and leave behind this chaotic Zhejiang officialdom, or will he make a decisive decision and return him to a bright future?"

When you think about it this way, it seems to be much simpler. But in fact, you can't just do it with your eyes closed.

Mei Kejia thought for a while and suggested, "My father-in-law can report the matter here to His Highness, and say that he has been arrested. But don't kill, depending on His Highness's will, if there is a recurrence, it will not be too late to release it. But you shouldn't stop moving in Hangzhou and other wills, the Beijing division is thousands of miles away, and this time it will be two months. Of course, people outside Zhejiang, the father-in-law should not listen to it, and do not care, just don't know. Because whether to expand the scope or not, this is the decision of the imperial court, the decision of His Royal Highness, not the decision of the father-in-law."

Things are getting clearer the more you say, in fact, if you think about it carefully, if you go back like this without doing anything, it is estimated that the prince will peel his skin!

"Good! Then arrest someone! Corrupt officials are not caught! Zhejiang is restless!"
