Hour Yongfang, Wanfu.

This was the home of the first assistant in the city, but tonight the door is closed, and all visitors are not allowed.

Inside the courtyard wall, a large group of servants were constantly carrying objects, resolutely in a situation of chickens flying and dogs jumping, and the sound of scolding inside was constant.

"Who gave this one, return it immediately!"

"Tomorrow? It's back now, and you can't delay for an hour! ”

"People are not in Jingshi? See if there are any relatives, otherwise you will smash the old man! ”

……

Wan An sat in the courtyard and looked at the objects that were moved out of the warehouse, and resolutely disposed of them all, and constantly commanded his servants.

Wan Hongbi was also distressed when he watched from the side, but he knew that if he didn't deal with it now, it would probably bring a great disaster to his family.

Although his grandfather has been standing in the court for more than ten years, he has already been on the opposite side of Qingliu officials, and once he is caught by these people, then their ten thousand families will be doomed.

The butler put the name on the object, and then had it taken to the carriage parked at the back door, where the items that were originally regarded as precious were carried up, and then the carriage disappeared into the night.

Just when Wanfu was busy, Xufu was a different scene.

Although Xu Pu was frustrated in the new dynasty, so many years of operation gave him a strong capital, and this capital is the protégé of the government and the opposition.

When he learned that his protégé Song Cheng was summoned by His Majesty, he especially learned from other sources that Song Cheng was called into the Qianqing Palace, so he specially set up a banquet tonight to serve this protégé who entered His Majesty's eyes.

Xu Pu didn't have much impression of this black-faced protégé, so he grabbed the wine jug and prepared to pour the wine and said, "Xuan'an, remember that you are from Luzhou, right?" ”

This is naturally not because he has a strong memory, but because the information about his more than 600 protégés has already been archived, and Song Cheng's relevant information has just been retrieved from the archive.

"Exactly! Teachers, students never drink alcohol! Song Cheng first nodded in response, and then refused solemnly.

Xu Pu was slightly stunned when he saw the hand that stopped him, and then smiled and chanted a poem of persuasion: "Persuade Jun Jin Qu Wei, don't say anything when you are full of drinks!" ”

"Teacher, students really don't drink!" Song Cheng was unmoved, but refused expressionlessly.

Seeing this, the housekeeper waiting next to him couldn't help frowning slightly, but he had never seen such an unethical protégé.

You must know how many protégés came to the Xu Mansion to do everything possible to slap his master, but now his master himself poured wine and refused to drink.

Xu Pu was a politician with a city government after all, so he put down the wine jug and talked about business: "I heard that you are doing the emperor's favor for Your Majesty, but you want to investigate the corruption case of the ministers of the court?" ”

"Teacher, there is no comment on this matter!" Song Cheng replied expressionlessly facing his teacher.

Xu Pu glanced deeply at this unusual disciple, but he still suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "Your Majesty's mind is not difficult to guess!" Chen Zhun is greedy for 500,000 taels of ink, and now the ministers are directly admonished, Your Majesty is looking for you this time to ask you to check Wenchen's corruption case to block the courtiers' mouths! It's just that since the Ming Dynasty, no one has dared to be corrupt since the Guo Huan case, but there have been corruption cases with more than 100,000 taels of corruption? ”

"Not yet!" Song Cheng hesitated for a moment, then shook his head seriously.

Xu Pu saw that the effect had been achieved, so he continued to use the medicine and said: "Your Majesty asked you to investigate the corruption case just to vent your anger, not to mention that this dynasty does not need to have such a big corruption case, do you know what the consequences will be if you do this?" ”

"Students don't care about the court, just the facts!" Song Cheng's waist straightened, looking at Xu Pu in a serious manner.

Xu Pu's brows frowned slightly, and he picked up his wine glass and asked, "What are your facts?" ”

"If the student finds evidence or suspicion of corruption among the courtiers, he will report it to His Majesty, and if not, he will report it to His Majesty!" Song Cheng's gaze was like a torch, and he replied as a matter of course.

Xu Pu looked at this protégé who was like a tendon, and took a sip of wine and said, "Truthful? I'm afraid Your Majesty wants you not to check the elder of Wange, right? ”

"Your Majesty does not ask for this!" Song Cheng's eyes looked at Xu Pu fixedly, still expressionless.

Xu Pu put down the wine glass, and said in confusion: "Really? ”

"Not really! If the teacher has nothing else to do, the student will retire first, and Yun Niang is still waiting for the student to go back for dinner! Song Cheng didn't move his chopsticks from beginning to end, and gave Xu Pu a salute.

Xu Pu found that he originally had such an alternative student, so he waved his hand lightly: "Since this is the case, then the teacher will not keep you!" ”

"Student quit!" Song Cheng got up and said respectfully.

When the housekeeper saw Song Cheng leaving, he stepped forward to pour wine for Xu Pu and said, "Master, do you want to spread the news that Your Majesty asked Song Cheng to investigate the corruption of officials?" ”

"It's all an old fox in officialdom, how can you not guess Your Majesty's careful thoughts? Originally, I thought that His Majesty was going to find Dongchang to investigate, and no matter how bad it was, I would find Jinyiwei, but I didn't expect that a little Zhejiang division member Wailang would come to help him solve the case, it was really whimsical! Xu Pu poured his wine glass and said with disdain on his face.

The butler put the flask down, and said with a flattering face: "This is it!" Even if you really find any clues, if you want to move the dignified officials, you have to have evidence to raid the house! ”

"It's just that you have to take precautions, and dispose of all the related things!" Xu Pu drank all the wine in the cup, and immediately admonished.

This night, everyone was in danger, as if they had learned in advance that someone had been sent to inspect them, they all began to paint their walls, and they all resolutely became the home of Qing officials.

In the dead of night, the lights of the Qianqing Palace are bright.

Zhu Youzhu saw that Huguang had sent another piece of music to him, and this time it was to impeach Wang Yue for indiscriminate killing.

He was too lazy to see who Wang Yue killed this time, and he already knew the faces of the local officials in his heart, and only killing could deter these greedy officials.

If it is said that the Beijing officials of the court may still take care of some face, then the local officials are already faceless old fritters, either seeking power or wealth.

"Your Majesty, it's time to rest!" A faint fragrance penetrated into her nose, and Erya, who was wearing a blue dress, came to the front and saluted.

A twenty-six or seventeen-year-old woman may be considered old in this era, but from the perspective of modern people, it is just right, especially the buttocks and breasts appear plump and elastic.

Although she was born as a palace maid, she resolutely has the temperament of a strong woman in later generations, especially those charming eyes and amorous, and her facial features are rare flowers and moons.

Zhu Youzhu is not a righteous gentleman who sits still, watching this sexy and tall beauty walk around in front of him every day, he can't help but feel a little nervous.

The bedroom is narrow and ambiguous, the quilt has been warmed, and the fragrance is still there.

When the palace maid took off her clothes, Zhu Youzhu said on a whim: "You go and bring me the book that Wan Ge Lao dedicated!" ”

"Your Majesty, do you want the slave maid to arrange for the princess to come over and sleep in bed?" After Erya handed over the book, she asked with a slightly red face.

"No, don't leave yet!" Zhu Youzhu was lying in the warm quilt, and he already had a decision in his heart.

Erya stared at her toes with a blushing face, but she knew what was about to happen.

Liu Jin knew how to create an atmosphere, and immediately helped blow out a candlestick, and at the same time let the waiting palace maids and eunuchs retreat outside.

Zhu Youzhu enjoyed this kind of imperial power very much, opened the book and admired the unsightly illustrations in it with interest, and at the same time admired the proud figure of the woman in front of the bed, but turned to the last page as if a basin of cold water had been splashed.

In mid-October, the capital was already cold, and the early dynasty changed it to once every two days.

"Haha...... Did you hear that? Your Majesty is going to send that black wood to investigate the embezzlement case! ”

"Our Wenchen is as honest as water, Your Majesty's move really chills the heart of the world's scholars to serve the country!"

"Reuse the eunuch and the traitorous villain, only the virtuous ministers can flourish in the past dynasties, and Your Majesty is the last to give up!"

……

The court dispersed early today, and Song Cheng was appointed by Hongzhi to investigate the corruption case of important ministers of the imperial court.

At noon, Guo Yong reported the results of his investigation: "Your Majesty, they are all a bunch of foxes, and even a small household is dealing with objects in the warehouse overnight!" ”

"What happened to Li Min?" Zhu Youzhu knew that it was indeed too hasty to investigate the corruption case, so he held on to the last glimmer of hope.

Guo Yong met Zhu Youji's gaze and said very bitterly: "Li Min seems to have received some rumors, and he went out of the city overnight to avoid trouble!" ”

Zhu Youzhi found out that he had made a bad move, and originally just wanted to make a mistake and let a member of the criminal department handle the corruption case, but it turned out to be a surprise move.

It's just that this is actually an unavoidable thing, after all, all parties are now staring at their every move, and there are really fewer talents in their hands.

Saying that Cao Cao Cao arrived, Liu Jin came in from outside and reported: "Your Majesty, Song Cheng, a member of the Zhejiang Qing Officials Division of the Criminal Department, asks to see you!" ”

Zhu Youzhu didn't understand why this black-faced young man came to him so quickly, and vaguely felt that this little criminal department member Wailang couldn't withstand the pressure of the civilian clique, so he called people in.

Guo Yong saw an official with such a dark face for the first time, so he couldn't help but look up and down.

Zhu Youzhu picked up the teacup in his hand and said reasonably: "This matter is difficult for me to be strong, you just hand over the token!" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister is here to reply to the decree!" Song Cheng's eyes looked straight at Zhu Youji, and he said amazingly.
