Zhu Yunshan knew in his heart that behind Qian Fenyong, there were Yang Du's former cabinet ministers, and even the king of Jiangnan.

offended these bigwigs, and his family also did not end well.

At this time, the prince saw this and flew up and kicked Qian Fenyong to the ground.

"Who allowed you to interject? Lone just said a word, and your words crackled more than this prince! Why, you can't rebel? ”

The prince looked coldly at Qian Fenyong, who was sitting on the ground, turned his head and shouted to Zhu Yunshan:

"Since you are reluctant to explain, then okay, Ding Jiu listens to the order! With the golden token of the crown prince, he led Qianniuwei to escort Zhu Yunshan's family to the edict prison first, waiting for the final execution order. ”

"The last will obey."

Ding Jiu took the crown prince's gold medal from Qiu Feng's hand, and was about to go out, when he heard a shout behind him.

"Your Highness is slow, I say! The offender is willing to confess in full. ”

The prince's words completely made Zhu Yunshan's spirit collapse.

He didn't dare to imagine what would happen to his wife and children once they fell into the hands of the secret guards?

It is a hell on earth, and it is estimated that it is worse than execution.

Therefore, he couldn't think about anything else, and knelt on the ground and cried:

"I beg His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to spare my family, I say, all the guilty ministers will confess..."

Seeing this, Qian Fenyong, who was kicked to the ground by the prince, began to jump over the wall in a hurry.

I saw him stand up and pounce on the waist knife of a jailer beside him, ready to draw the knife and attack.

"You soft bones, you still want to bite people when you are dying?"

Qian Fenyong's expression was hideous, and he was out of the way.

But the waist knife he was about to let out was only half drawn, and the wrist holding the handle of the knife was held down by Jiang Wulang and twisted it hard.

"Ouch..."

Qian Fenyong screamed in pain, and his right palm let go of the handle of the knife in pain, turning into a chicken claw and hanging down.

Two thousand oxen guards stepped forward and pressed him to the ground and rubbed him.

"Someone came, take off the black gauze hat of Qianfenyong, take off the official robe, and immediately take him to the edict prison for detention."

As soon as the prince's words landed, Jiang Wulang took matters into his own hands, and he dragged down the crown and official uniform of the thousands of brave Shangshu by dividing them by two.

Then let the two Qianniu guards set up the howling Qianfenyong and get out of the prison.

The prince's thunderous methods made all the officials of the criminal department present tremble with their heads bowed and their heads bowed.

"Zhu Yunshan, you can see it clearly, the end of despising the imperial power will be tragic, only respect, as long as you explain clearly, Lone can forgive you for the crime of destroying the door and leave a way for your family and relatives to live, but if you don't say it, Lone will do what he says."

The corners of Zhu Yunshan's mouth twitched, and his whole body trembled.

He had long heard that the crown prince was ruthless, decisive in killing, and true to his word.

He said dejectedly:

"Say, the guilty are all confessed."

"All of this was instructed by Qian Fenyong to do it, and I had some concerns at first, after all, the one standing behind Master Shi was you, the prince of the East Palace, and I was also afraid."

"And such a method of planting false accusations is simple and crude, which cannot withstand scrutiny at all, and cannot cover up the truth."

"But Qian Fenyong told me that this was requested by someone above, and the relevant personnel were rewarded afterwards, so I just handled the case, it was reasonable or unreasonable, and it didn't matter if it stood up to scrutiny, someone would naturally come forward to settle the follow-up."

"I didn't dare to offend Qian Fenyong, let alone the bigwigs behind him, so I agreed."

“……”

Zhu Yunshan burst into tears, kneeling in the stinking sewage and kowtowing to apologize.

"In this way, when you go to the Imperial Prison, in addition to explaining Shi Shenyi's case clearly, you have written down the unjust, false and wrongful cases you have handled with Qian Fenyong and others over the years."

"Note that the more clearly you explain the cause of each incident, the names and positions of the participants in the handling, etc., the lessening of your crimes, and if the report makes a significant contribution, you can also consider exempting you from the death penalty."

The temptation is great.

"Thank you, Your Highness, the guilty minister will definitely explain all the things he has committed over the years, one by one, and strive to make meritorious atonements."

The prince nodded, and ordered someone to release Zhu Yunshan to the edict prison and leave the secret guard alone

One room, let him explain slowly.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Yunshan made meritorious service and atoned for his crimes, and in just one day and night, he wrote down the things and people who were corrupt and bent the law for personal gain in the major and important cases he had experienced.

There are more than a dozen pieces of paper, and the writing is dense.

The manuscript was submitted to the prince, and he swept it through, his eyes becoming cold and terrifying.

"It seems that this Imperial Criminal Department has rotted to the roots, and it must be comprehensively rectified."

As the highest criminal law enforcement department in the empire, the Criminal Department is in charge of the criminal crimes of all yamen in the world, and its power is terrifying.

For more than 10 years, the officials of the Criminal Department, headed by Qian Fenyong, have used the power in their hands to arbitrarily interfere in cases, and even used their criminal power to announce personal vendettas.

As long as you give money, even if you commit a capital crime, you can use all kinds of means to put things right and fish people out.

Just fishing for people has formed an industrial chain and interest group for a long time.

For more than a decade, the number of crimes they have committed is simply too numerous to mention.

"The incident and the people involved in Zhu Yunshan's confession will all be handed over to the secret guards for re-examination, and all the personnel will be detained in the Imperial Prison."

The crown prince directly issued an order and handed it over to the Zhan Mansion to execute.

"Anyone who obstructs intercession will be punished according to the same party."

The major reshuffle and rectification of the Criminal Department was actually caused by Shi Shenyi's grievances.

This is Yang Du, and they are asking for their own hardships.

The results of the purge were:

Shang Shuqian of the Criminal Department bravely raided the house and destroyed the door, and the whole family of more than 30 people copied out the money and bribes, totaling more than 1 million taels of silver.

Zhu Yunshan, the right attendant of the Criminal Department, reported and exposed the fact that he had made major meritorious contributions to atone for his crimes, pardoned the death penalty, and changed the sentence to confiscate the army in Northern Xinjiang.

His family moved back to his hometown, and all the stolen money was confiscated and handed over to the state treasury.

More than 20 officials of the Criminal Department were implicated in the criminal department, all of whom were handed over to the secret guards to come to the door to get people, verify the evidence of the crime, and deal with them in accordance with the law.

Officials below the fifth grade will be directly handed over to the team led by Zuo Shilang of the Criminal Department for review, report for approval of arrest, and verify the evidence of the crime.

In the end, all the criminals were handed over to Dali Temple for trial and conviction.

This incident eventually evolved into another storm of clean government that swept the whole country after the Ministry of Industry last year.

The entire criminal department was almost wiped out, and the rest were all in danger, and since then they have reined in and done their errands seriously.

This storm of clean government first began with the Central Criminal Department, and the prince planned to gradually infiltrate the state capitals, counties and counties within one to two years.

The former cabinet ministers led by Yang Du adopted a collective silence to avoid the prince's blow.

Of course, the East Palace temporarily withdrew its troops.

This incident finally ended with the complete victory of the crown prince.

The total amount of property confiscated by corrupt officials alone amounted to more than 3 million taels of silver.

In addition to money, the main reason is that the prince took advantage of the situation to recover this important department of the Criminal Department.

Of course, that's all for later.
