Li Yinfei's heart was half cold when he heard this, and Qian Xuanji was still struggling: "I am the prefect of Youzhou, the prince's move is really insulting, I want to go to the court and join you!" ”

Li Feng had heard this remark more than once, and he said to Qian Xuanji with a smile: "Qian Xuanji, if you want to join me, you are also worthy!" ”

Qian Xuanji's face turned red, and he kept struggling, and he was careless for a while, causing the silver ticket in his arms to fall out.

Looking at the silver ticket on the ground, Qian Xuanji couldn't help but be stunned.

At this time, his heart was full of remorse.

What he regretted was not that he had waded into this troubled water, but that he regretted that he was too anxious and accepted Li Yinfei's benefits early.

Now that the silver ticket has been lost, he is at a loss for words.

Seeing that a silver ticket had fallen, Li Feng's face sank: "What is that?" ”

"Back to the prince, it's a silver ticket!"

"Bring it on!"

The guard picked up the silver ticket and handed it to Li Feng.

"Check!"

Li Feng gave an order, and the guard immediately checked the silver ticket in his hand.

After a while, the guard spoke: "Lord Wang, there are a total of three million taels of silver tickets here, plus two land deeds in the capital!" ”

"Where did this silver ticket come from, can you all see it clearly?"

"I can see clearly, I fell from Lord Qian's arms!"

When Li Feng heard this, his face became even colder: "Lord Qian, you have a lot of money, I just don't know what you want to do with these millions of taels of silver tickets to swagger through the market?" ”

Qian Xuanji saw that the matter was revealed, and decided to continue to stubbornly talk to the end: "Lord Wang, it is all the private property of the lower officials, and it is brought out today to prepare to be deposited in Qianzhuang!" ”

"Your private property? Qian Xuanji, your official rank is only five grades, and your annual salary is only eighty taels, where did you get your private property? ”

When Qian Xuanji heard this, his face changed suddenly: "Xiaguan, Xiaguan's family has some business ......"

"Nonsense, there was a decree at the beginning of the founding of the country, Shinong, industry and commerce, businessmen are the cheapest, and all businessmen in the family are not allowed to enter the office, otherwise the three clans will be razed, and the rest of the relatives will be put into slavery, Qian Xuanji, are you a fool to be the king?"

Li Feng pressed forward step by step, and his momentum was pressing.

Qian Xuanji's face changed suddenly, and his eyes trembled.

"Qian Xuanji, according to the law of the Great Cadres, anyone who is an official will conceal his family background and be regarded as a bully, and he will be punished by the three clans, and the remaining six generations will be put into slavery!"

"The next words, you have to think about it!"

Qian Xuanji's face turned red, and he hesitated for a while, and finally looked up at Li Feng: "Lord Wang, if I report truthfully, can I be exempted from the death penalty?" ”

Li Feng shook his head: "Officials who accept bribes of more than 100,000 taels will be dismissed, and if they exceed 500,000, they will be beheaded, this king has searched for a full three million taels from you, do you think you still have a life?" ”

"If you confess your sins, the king can spare your family, but if you refuse to confess, then you can only be punished as a deception!"

Li Feng's last sentence undoubtedly brought a glimmer of hope to Qian Xuanji, Qian Xuanji turned his head to look at Li Yinfei, gritted his teeth and said: "These silver are all stolen money from Li Yinfei to bribe the lower official, Li Yinfei was worried that he would be implicated by Liu Yuren, so he found the lower official, hoping that I could help him get rid of the crime!" ”

Li Yinfei's heart trembled, and he pointed at Qian Xuanji and scolded: "Qian Xuanji, you dare to betray me!" ”

"Li Yinfei, you manipulate food prices and oppress the people, which is a dead end, you should obediently admit your guilt!"

"I'll admit it, I'll kill you!"

Li Yinfei's sleeves shook, and a dagger suddenly appeared in his hand.

He rushed towards Qian Xuanji with a dagger in his hand, but before he could take two steps, he was pressed to the ground by the guards on the side.

Li Yinfei lay on the ground and struggled constantly, and at the same time scolded: "Qian Xuanji, you are a son of a bitch, do you want to keep your family small by sacrificing Lao Tzu?" You're dreaming! ”

When Li Feng heard this, he became interested, he squatted in front of Li Yinfei and said: "Li Yinfei, threatening the imperial court officials, this is going to punish the nine clans!" ”

Li Yinfei struggled and said: "Lord Wang, I have evidence of money and mystery every time I take bribes, I am willing to hand it over, I just ask you to spare my wife and children!" ”

"Okay, if you can come up with evidence, this king can also consider it at his discretion!"

Li Yinfei gritted his teeth when he heard this: "Li Fu, why don't you take out the account book quickly?" ”

The housekeeper Li Fu hurriedly ran over and handed over an account book to Li Feng.

"Lord Wang, what is described above is the account of Qian Xuanji's bribery, and the date on it is clearly marked, please be clear!"

Li Feng casually flipped through the accounts, and the contents described in them were really shocking.

Qian Xuanji has served as the prefect of Youzhou for more than ten years, and in these ten years, he has embezzled more than four million taels, and if you add today's amount, the amount of embezzlement has been seven million taels of silver.

And the annual tax revenue of the Great Qian Empire is only eight million taels!

Looking at the ledger in his hand, Li Feng was furious.

Qian Xuanji still wanted to defend himself, but Li Feng directly smashed the ledger on his face: "Qian Xuanji, you have embezzled seven million taels in ten years, you are really capable!" ”

"Lord Wang, this money is not only for me, but also for other officials in Youzhou, who accepted bribes and suppressed other grain merchants, so that all the business was remitted to the Li and Liu families, you can't blame all the blame on me!"

"You still have the face to say!"

Li Feng said coldly: "Ten years of cold window, the title of the gold list, I expected you to serve the country with knowledge, but as a result, the court raised a group of corrupt officials like you!" ”

"Do you think you're taking money? What is recorded on this paper is the blood and sweat of the people, the fat and the ointment of the people, the mystery of money, your sins, a hundred deaths cannot be atoned! ”

Qian Xuanji sat on the ground, unable to struggle.

Li Feng turned his head and said to the guards: "Qian Xuanji, as the prefect, does not want to serve the people, is corrupt and perverts the law, and his crime is unforgivable. ”

"Lord Wang, you just promised me that you would let my family go, you can't break your word!"

When death came, Qian Xuanji still wanted to beg for mercy, Li Feng glanced at him coldly: "Qian Xuanji, if you don't chop your family to death together, this king is already soft-hearted!" ”

Qian Xuanji knew that his sin was unforgivable, and immediately knelt on the ground: "Xiaguan Qian Xuanji, thank you to King You!" ”

The guards on the left and right stepped forward, took off Qian Xuanji's clothes and hat, and escorted him down.

Then Li Feng looked at Li Yinfei again: "Li Yinfei, are you guilty?" ”

"The grass people raise the price of grain, harm the people, bribe officials, the crime is unforgivable, I only ask the prince to spare my wife and children for the sake of my meritorious report, after all, they are innocent!"

Li Feng nodded: "If you report that you have merit, this king can exempt you from the crime of Zhulian, and punish your wife and children to be demoted to slavery, and the family property will be confiscated!" ”

"Thank you, Lord Wang!"

"Well, as for you, you will be beheaded at noon tomorrow to comfort the hearts of the people of Youzhou!"

Looking at Qian Xuanji and Li Yinfei who were escorted aside, Li Feng's face was grim: "Ban Li's rice store, and the palace will send someone to take over, and anyone who buys high-priced grain can go to Li's rice store with a voucher to exchange for the same amount of grain!" ”

After Li Feng gave the order, he turned around and was about to leave, but at this moment, someone suddenly came to report: "Lord Qiyu, Youzhou businessman He Jinse asks to see!" ”
