0913 officialdom shakes

In this way, Yangzhou City was in turmoil for four or five days before it was completely quiet, and the brocade guards no longer roamed the streets, but retracted back to Kew Gardens! But according to the estimation of those who have a heart, there are countless gold, silver, jewelry, and antiques in the Autumn Garden! If there is a Jiangyang thief who makes a vote here, he will not have to worry about eating and drinking for several lifetimes, but no one dares!

At the same time, similar things happened in more than a dozen other cities in Jiangnan! A large number of brocade guards swaggered by, arrested a large number of salt merchants and their related personnel, and took away a large number of gold, silver and jewelry, antiques and antiques! It can be regarded as an eye-opener for the people!

At the same time, the local government also received cabinet documents, dispatched archers, strong classes and other armed forces to start strangling large and small salt lords! In fact, those salt barons are basically semi-public when they sell illegal salt, and the government knows their strongholds, so they are caught one by one!

And most of the main forces of those salt lords have been annihilated when they fought Liu Haojia, and the remaining forces are simply unable to resist the attacks and encirclement everywhere! For a time, the salt lords everywhere died, caught, and fled! There is no place for salt owls in the whole Jiangnan!

At the same time, inland water divisions went upriver along the Yangtze River and even along various tributaries to transport low-cost salt to all parts of Daming! For a while, the price of salt in the entire Ming Dynasty instantly dropped to the bottom, which made all the people rejoice, and completely set off a craze of smashing pots and selling iron to buy salt!

Even those wealthy businessmen are wondering if they will get a piece of the salt industry that they have not been able to do in the past. Anyway, as mentioned above, anyone can buy this low-priced salt as long as they go to the salt farm, and anyone can sell it! If you can operate a fixed sales area, it is equivalent to having an inexhaustible source of wealth!

No matter what the people below were thinking, saying, or discussing, as the news of Jinyiwei's wanton arrest of salt merchants spread, the entire Ming officialdom shook! Jinyiwei is back in the rivers and lakes again! And this tiger re-emerged from the mountain, as soon as it was shot, it was a monstrous case! According to the rough estimates of various families, there are no less than 2,000 people and their relatives arrested this time, which can be said to be a monstrous case in the past 100 years!

When the civil officials heard the news, they beat their chests and felt that there was a big problem in the cabinet, and they actually released Jinyiwei! From now on, there may be another tightening spell on his head! Therefore, they frantically wrote letters to contact the Quartet, and told their superiors that they must find some faults in this matter, and they must beat the momentum of Jinyiwei's recovery!

And although the upstarts and military attaches felt that Jinyiwei was closer to their own family, they were also not very happy! Because the brocade guards are also responsible for monitoring them! However, the nobles feel that their relationship with Liu Haojia is not bad, and they should receive some preferential treatment.

But the military attachés in other places had to seriously consider how to tie up Liu Haojia! lest one day be chained around your neck! In short, because of this monstrous case, the whole Ming Dynasty shook!.

When the news reached Jingshi, Zhang Juzheng was laughing with several concubines in his flower hall! And surprisingly, there is also a blonde and blue-eyed white man in these concubines!

What Zhang Juzheng has done in his life can be described as a matter of heaven and earth, but his private life is also talked about! That's the man who is extremely passionate about men and women! Everyone in the DPRK and China knows this, and it is said that the mighty must have great desires!

And this matter is known not only to people in the court, but also to people outside the court! Therefore, many people who want to slap him will send some valuable recreational drugs, and they are very distinctive! If you are close to the sea, you will send seafood, such as a fur dog whip! Those who are inland will send herbs, such as Yin sheep weed and the like! There are even more who directly search for beautiful women everywhere, and send them to Zhang Ju*** after careful training! And Zhang Juzheng is naturally a smile one by one!

Under normal circumstances, no one would disturb Zhang Ju when he was indulging in lust, but at this time, a red-faced maidservant girl sent a letter!

Zhang Juzheng didn't have to think about it, there was only one person who dared to disturb him at this time, and that was You Qi! And You Qi is a person who has won his trust, and naturally knows the severity, so this letter must be extremely important!

However, he was still very reluctant to laugh with these concubines, and he still warmed up for a while before sending a few people away! Then he sat still for a moment, waiting for his eyes to recover

I opened the letter after Qingming!

Zhang Juzheng has always boasted that he can collapse Mount Tai in front of him without changing color, but after reading the letter, he was so angry that his proud beard was shaking, and the corners of his forehead were even more green and high! After he forced himself to read the letter, he slapped the letter on the table with a "snap" and scolded in a low voice: "These nobles are really Adou who can't be helped! It's a good Wu Ninghou, and sure enough, it's a needle!"

Zhang Juzheng's original plan was very good, that is, to use Liu Haojia to clean up the main force of the salt lords, and then use the founding nobles to clean up the salt merchants, and then the local government intervened! This arrangement is to create an opportunity for Liu Haojia to achieve military merits in exchange for Jinyiwei not interfering in the seizure of homes and participating in low-cost salt matters!

The advantage of this is that Jin Yiwei will continue to hibernate, and at the same time, when the low-priced salt begins to be marketed in the whole Daming, all the credit will fall on the civil officials, especially him, the first assistant of the cabinet!

But what he never expected was that an agreement had been reached, but Liu Haojia did not fulfill the agreement! At the same time, the nobles led by Xu Guogong shrank their heads and put on a look of not being guilty, and let Liu Haojia take the brocade guard to show off in vain!

As a result, everyone in the Ming Dynasty now knows that it was Jinyiwei who cleaned up the salt merchants, it was Jinyiwei who arrested corrupt officials, and it was Jinyiwei who transferred a large amount of low-cost salt! And he, the first assistant, only failed to make a strategizing in the end! is still forcibly relied on, which makes him embarrassed as the first assistant!

The most hateful thing is that Liu Haojia also arranged for someone to publicize it in secret, saying that these people who were copied did a lot of evil things on weekdays! How to monopolize the market and dominate the market! How did the family oppress the people, how did they collude with officials in various places, and how did they bend the law for bribes!

Well, now that ordinary people hear the news, they all say that Jinyiwei can enforce the law impartially and take care of people's livelihood! The reputation is very good for a while! And the gentry and officials were fearful and resentful!

What they are afraid of is that they are afraid that the Jinyi Guard will rise again and monitor them thoroughly, and the future will not be easy! Resentment is to complain that the cabinet actually gave Jinyiwei such a chance to be in the limelight, which disappointed officials all over the world!
