Daming Jingtai: I am the eternal benevolent king

Chapter 272 Ask the emperor to kill the official with the sword!Please take the initiative to plead guilty to the Hu family and not lose the reputation of your ancestors!
"Cheng Tong!"

"Stop barking!"

Wang Hong held up the secret book: "Do you think that if you destroy the account book, I won't be able to find anything?"

"Wishful thinking, you are just dreaming!"

"This is your son's confession!"

"It's clearly written on it!"

Cheng Tong was startled: "This is pure slander. My son is serving in the palace, so there is no confession!"

The courtiers at the Fengtian Palace in Nanjing were inexplicably afraid.

If he is not at home, will the Dongchang and Duzhi Supervisory Committees question their families? Can their families withstand the questioning of the factory guards?

"Your adopted son Cheng Bi, isn't he considered your son?"

Wang Hong opened the secret book: "Look at these records."

"In the seventh year of Zhengtong, you Cheng Tong bribed the soldiers of Baoshan and went to Baoshan for smuggling."

"In the 11th year of Zhengtong, on Nansha Island, they gathered tens of thousands of thieves, gathered thousands of sea ships, and did business with the Yin family and Wang family, making a profit of one million taels."

"Since then, you have been good at bribing the commanders of various security posts to open up smuggling channels. You have also bribed officials from all over the Southern Zhili Province to facilitate you and form a smuggling group to make profits for you."

"Since the third year of Jingtai, all smuggling ships sailing from Baoshan to the sea will have to pay you Cheng Tong a share of the money. If you don't pay, the profit will be incalculable."

"Cheng Tong, do you still want me to continue reading?"

Snapped!
Wang Hong smashed the secret book directly into Cheng Tong's face.

Then he pointed at everyone: "And you!"

"How much everyone was involved!"

"I have been ordered by the emperor to investigate the case, so I can use the Emperor's Sword!"

"If you recruit him from the truth, you can still survive. If we are found out by this pavilion, all of you Manchus will be punished with death!"

Wang Hong shouted sharply: "I can use the emperor's sword to kill first and then play!"

The courtiers of Fengtian Palace were startled.

Cheng Tong's eyes flashed with fear. How did Dongchang find his adopted son Cheng Bi?

His adopted son is in charge of all business at sea.

Cheng Bi was caught, didn't everything leak out?

An idea came to his mind now: beat Wang Hong to death and destroy the evidence!
When the center sends people to investigate again, they will have enough time to destroy the evidence.

But Wang Hong's force value is high enough.

He can't defeat him alone, so it's better to gather more courtiers and beat Wang Hong to death together.

Let the center find nothing to check.

"I'm giving you a chance, don't force me!" Wang Hong didn't know yet, but Cheng Tong planned to beat Wang Hong to death and end it all once and for all.

Many people were still hesitant after receiving Cheng Tong's look.

After all, Wang Hong was an imperial envoy and a senior minister in the current cabinet. He was a highly respected minister. If such a person died in Fengtian Palace, someone had to take the blame.

No one wants to be the outcast or the scapegoat.

When you are confused.

After Wang Hong realized this, he suddenly stood up, walked quickly to Danqi, and suddenly pulled out the Emperor's Sword.

laugh!
With lightning speed, a sword stabbed Cheng Tong in the chest.

Cheng Tong saw Wang Hong standing up, and just when he raised his head, he saw Wang Hong stabbing him with a sword, and he had no time to avoid it.

"Cheng Tong, who privately works as a maritime merchant and supports pirates, should be punished for his crime!"

"I will punish him on behalf of the emperor!"

Wang Hong shouted: "You still don't confess?"

The courtiers in Fengtian Palace were all confused.

Just now, they plotted to kill Wang Hong and destroy the evidence.

Who would have known that Wang Hong stabbed Cheng Tong to death first and used Cheng Tong's blood to tell them that Wang Hong represented the emperor and that the emperor was here in person. Who in the world would dare not to obey?

"I am guilty!" The courtiers kowtowed in fear.

Cheng Tong still had a breath: "Wei Chen was wronged... Wang Hong, the Fengtian Palace kills courtiers without asking the reason. What are you going to do? Are you trying to be reckless... Wei Chen remonstrated with your Majesty with blood, please kill him... …”

puff!
The person who replied to him was that Wang Hong chopped off his head.

I haven’t even finished what I said next.

The courtiers of Fengtian Palace were all frightened. Wang Hong was too cruel. He killed Cheng Tong first and chopped off his head.

Wang Hong raised Cheng Tong's head: "Your Majesty gave me the Emperor's Sword, and gave me the right to kill first and then report, in order to punish these two ministers who are so full of benevolence, justice and morality!"

"Any minister who commits a crime, I have the right to kill first and then punish him, regardless of the reason!"

"This is the Emperor's Sword!"

"Your Majesty has given me the authority to do so!"

"If you want to survive, just admit your guilt. There is still a glimmer of hope!"

"If you force me to use the Emperor's Sword again, your family will be confiscated and your clan will be destroyed!"

Wang Hong was covered in cold sweat.

He vaguely guessed that Cheng Tong would not be captured without hesitation, so it was better to strike first.

Killed Cheng Tong, the official minister.

Shock all officials.

Only then can the officials in the Nanjing court be completely defeated and their flaws revealed.

If the police were sent to interrogate one by one, it would take Jingtai 20 years to complete the interrogation. There are too many people.

You can only kill to stop killing.

Let them get into trouble and admit their guilt on their own initiative.

"Fan Cong, what do you think?"

Wang Hong stood under the Danqi, holding the Emperor's Sword.

Because the Emperor's Sword was in his hand, he did not kneel down.

But the officials did not speak.

Wang Hong could only name names.

Fan Cong was a Jinshi in the eighth year of Xuande's reign. He was a native of Wujiang County, Suzhou Prefecture, and his family was an extremely wealthy family in the area.

His father Fan Shineng, grandfather Fan Zicheng, and great-grandfather Fan Wenqing were all born in Juren.

The Fan family, a wealthy family in Wujiang, has a particularly large textile business.

Now Fan Congguan pays homage to the right minister of the Ministry of Industry.

The position of Minister of the Ministry of Industry in Nanjing is vacant, and Fan Cong, the right minister, is in charge, which can be said to be a high and powerful position.

"S-Sir?" Fan Cong's face was covered in cold sweat.

"Do you still want me to count your crimes in detail?" Wang Hong asked.

Fan Cong was startled.

His family was not directly involved in maritime trade, but they sold a lot of cloth, and his official position was also obtained through Cheng Tong's operation.

After all, he is definitely not clean.

Just when he was hesitating, he saw Wang Hong coming with a sword.

I was so scared that I peed my pants.

"The lower official knows the crime, the lower official knows the crime!" Fan Cong shouted.

"What crime have you committed? Tell me!" Wang Hong pressed.

Fan Cong stole a glance at his colleagues and was about to speak when he found a cold sword edge resting on his neck.

"Sir, forgive me!"

Fan Cong was pissed: "My family has a textile factory and sells a lot of cloth. Don't kill me!"

Wang Hong's eyes were filled with surprise.

A breach opens.

"Speak truthfully in front of His Majesty's decree!" Wang Hong shouted.

but.

An official next to Fan Cong kept winking at Fan Cong, "Wang Hong is deceiving you. As long as you don't admit it, the emperor won't be able to find evidence."

Without evidence, Wang Hong was the one who committed the crime by killing people indiscriminately. Even if the emperor protected him, Wang Hong would still die.

You must not say that!
This official is called Gong Li, a Jinshi in the first year of Zhengtong, and a native of Kunshan, Suzhou Prefecture.

Ruofan Cong's family is a wealthy one.

Then his family is a big family. The entire land in Kunshan is actually under his family's name. If found out, his family would be wiped out.

In the eighth year of Jingtai, he was the political envoy to the left in Shandong.

During the Shandong Rebellion last year, Pei Lun was executed by the emperor from the Nine Tribes. However, he, Gong Li, was obviously the envoy to the left, but he was promoted to Nanjing and served as the right minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

How many tricks are hidden in this?
As long as he, Gong Li, is interrogated, half of the people in the court will be implicated.

Therefore, Gong Li could not let Fan Cong spit.

Not only for his own sake, but also for his "connections". As long as he goes to jail, people will definitely poison him and prevent him from speaking out.

After all, Wang Hong was deceiving the officials.

Even if Wang Hong killed Cheng Tong, as long as he couldn't get evidence, Wang Hong would have to take the blame.

The Ming Dynasty ruled the country by law. I have never heard of any imperial envoys killing people casually with the Emperor's Sword!

Even the emperor does not have this power!His imperial minister is nothing.

He, Wang Hong, kills people just to scare others into handing over evidence. As long as everyone works together and pretends to be innocent.

Then it will be him, Wang Hong, who is unlucky!
but!

But Wang Hong noticed him: "Gong Li, the right servant of the Ministry of Personnel, what are you doing?"

He suddenly approached Gong Li.

Gong Li trembled all over and kowtowed quickly to apologize.

However, the cold sword edge was placed on his neck: "Your Kunshan cloth is spread all over the country, don't think that this pavilion doesn't know you!"

"Gong Li!"

"What kind of wink are you giving Fan Cong?"

"Do you want to deceive the Emperor's Sword?"

Wang Hong shouted and asked.

"Returning to the imperial envoy, sir, there are no subordinates... ah!"

Gong Li was about to argue.

But he let out a shrill scream.

Because the sword in Wang Hong's hand cut from the back of his neck down, cutting off half of his head.

Blood splattered!

Half of Gong Li's head was hanging on the ground, and the other half was open, revealing the terrifying blood vessels inside.

Finally, the fragile neck could not support the cavity, and it hit the ground with a thud. The head rolled to the ground, and the body was still twitching.

He never expected that Wang Hong would dare to kill people wantonly!
But why don't you think about it? Wang Hong has forced himself into a desperate situation. If he doesn't find evidence, he, Wang Hong, will die.

How could Wang Hong not risk his life at this time?

"I am standing here holding the Emperor's Sword, as if His Majesty is here in person!"

"You guys still dare to whisper to each other?"

"Whoever dares to whisper to each other will be punished by Gong Li!"

Wang Hong roared: "Fan Cong, tell me!"

Fan Cong shivered all over.

Then Gong Li winked at him, but was killed by Wang Hong!
This Wang Hong has gone crazy.

He blocked his own future, and even the fate of his family, just to dig out evidence and give the world a satisfactory explanation.

"Since the Zhengtong period, the Xiaguan family has been supplying goods to sea trade, providing cloth, and purchasing cloth from Wu County..."

Fan Cong is recruiting!

Wang Hongmou was pleasantly surprised. He opened a breakthrough and was about to catch a big fish.

"Besides yours, who else supplies goods to the sea trade? Point it out!"

Fan Cong raised his head and glanced around. Everyone lowered their heads and broke out in cold sweat.

As a result, he slowly pointed at Gong Li.

"Who else?"

Fan Cong didn't want to point it out, but Wang Hong began to wipe the blood drops on the Emperor's sword.

And someone came in and dragged Gong Li's body down.

He also sent people to raid Gong Li's family.

Fan Cong felt desperate and pointed at several people.

Several people who were accused cursed Fan Cong for being shameless.

"Are there any more?" Wang Hong waved his hand and asked Fanzi to drag these people down and interrogate them severely.

"That's all I know!"

As soon as Fan Cong confessed, the courtiers kneeling here knew that it was completely over and there was no room for escaping guilt.

"Who you sold it to! Point it out too!"

Wang Hong finished his words.

The screams of torture could be heard outside the door, and Fanzi interrogated him directly outside the door.

The shrill screams echoed into the Fengtian Palace, and the officials felt as if they were falling into hell. The fate of these people would be their own fate in the future.

Suddenly, his body went limp and he fell to the ground. He couldn't hold it anymore and the fart sound was loud.

Fan Cong pointed out a few more people.

Fan Zi came in and dragged them all out.

Moreover, more people were dragged out this time than Fan Cong pointed out.

Zheng Liang wanted to help, but the shrill screams outside the hall kept him from speaking.

Someone outside confessed.

He dragged the people out from outside the palace and continued the interrogation.

There are fewer and fewer people kneeling in Fengtian Hall.

Wang Hong showed a satisfied smile, the breakthrough was opened, and the first fire was lit.

"Comrades, do you know what is written in His Majesty's imperial edict?"

Wang Hong glanced at the few courtiers.

Those who can still stick here are either treacherous and loyal, or they are innocent officials who have not participated in sea trade smuggling.

"Before I leave the capital, Your Majesty told me sincerely that I will give Nanzhili a bright and prosperous future!"

"Those people outside!"

"They are all talents who came from Shushan and Tihai! They are outstanding people cultivated by the country! They are the ministers entrusted by His Majesty to entrust the country to the country!"

"But how did they repay His Majesty? How did they repay Ming Dynasty?"

"Since Taizu, the Ming Dynasty has banned the sea. This is a national policy, and all people must abide by it!"

"But what about them? They knowingly break the rules! They regard the laws of the Ming Dynasty as child's play! They regard His Majesty as nothing! They regard all the people as nothing!"

"Let me ask you gentlemen, are they still worthy of being human?"

There are only a dozen ministers still kneeling in Fengtian Hall.

At this moment, I don’t understand what Wang Hong is going to do.

"Not worthy!"

"The dynasty cultivates them, His Majesty reuses them, and the people trust them!"

"But they repay His Majesty's grace with their wolf-like hearts and dog-like lungs! They use the treacherous hearts of snakes and scorpions to repay Your Majesty's divine grace!"

"The country has been raising scholars for hundreds of years. What has it produced? A white-eyed wolf?"

"Ignoring the ancestral system, stealing food and sucking blood, I am ashamed of Your Majesty, digging up the roots of the Ming Dynasty!"

"For such a person, it is not an exaggeration to say that his family was confiscated, his family was exterminated, and ten clans were executed!"

Wang Hong shouted:

"This pavilion is patrolling the sky on behalf of the heavens, as if the Holy Lord is here in person!"

"The Holy One bestows upon me the Emperor's Sword, which can be used to defeat kings and kill courtiers. No one in the world dares to disobey!"

"I want to use the Emperor's Sword to kill all the prisoners on the spot!"

"Send factory guards again to arrest the nine clans and wait for the center to be released!"

When the courtiers of Fengtian Palace heard this, they thought that Wang Hong was going to do something absolutely right!

Are there so many courtiers to be killed at will?
Don’t we need to ask the central authority for instructions?
wrong!

If Wang Hong wanted to kill him, he would have done it directly. There was no way he would have asked Luo Li to talk so much. What was he going to do?

The number of people Wang Hong brought was limited, and it was impossible to catch dozens of officials in one go!
Behind these officials are intricate relationships and huge local families.

Therefore, it is simply impossible to find out all the officials’ family information.

Wang Hong wants to borrow their power.

However, those who are still kneeling here are either newly transferred or do not have much influence in the local area and are of no use at all.

Zheng Liang's eyes lit up, and he understood Wang Hongzhi's profound meaning.

Thinking this was a good opportunity to cling to Wang Hong, he kowtowed and shouted:
"Old Wang Ge, God has the virtue of a happy life."

"Although your colleagues have committed crimes, they are loyal to His Majesty."

"I just ask you to be kind and give them a chance to make up for their mistakes."

"I also ask the elder to intercede for my colleagues. Please calm down your majesty's thunderous anger and issue an edict to forgive all of your colleagues."

Zheng Liang understood Wang Hong's thoughts.

Wang Hong has no one on hand.

Killing these scum will only give you temporary satisfaction, but there is no way to bring all these people's properties back to the central government.

It is entirely possible to divide them into two camps, single out the worst offenders, and let other officials kill these people and confiscate their property.

Then they would get rid of the others and confiscate their property.

Do it all.

After all, the emperor wanted money, not to completely eliminate the roots of the Jiangnan gentry.

This is Wang Hong’s deep meaning.

"Zheng Shangshu, are you interceding for the guilty minister?" Wang Hong's voice was sinister.

"Mr. Ge, I am not interceding for the guilty minister, but I am worried that Nan Zhili will lose control."

Zheng Liang said: "So many officials have been wiped out in one fell swoop, and Southern Zhili has been paralyzed. This will give Xiaoxiao an opportunity to take advantage of!"

"I also ask Mr. Ge, for the sake of my colleagues and the fact that Southern Zhili still needs guilty ministers, please forgive me."

Wang Hong looked hesitant, and the others also begged for mercy, secretly scolding Zheng Liang for being a ghost.

"Drag all the criminals outside!"

Soon, dozens of bloody criminals were dragged into Fengtian Hall.

Everyone was covered in blood.

Lying on the ground, crying and howling.

The ministers who were not found guilty were shocked and felt pain when they looked at them. Those villains were really deadly.

If you don't hit hard, how can you knock out more things?
"quiet!"

Wang Hong shouted: "How can we allow you to cry and howl in the Fengtian Palace?"

"I don't know any rules!"

Aren't we allowed to cry when we are in pain?

But everyone was silent.

"According to this pavilion's idea, this pavilion will hold the Emperor's Sword and kill you all!"

"Then send the factory guards to arrest you and other nine tribes, and wait for the center to be released!"

Wang Hong softened his tone: "However, Zheng Shangshu intercedes for you."

"For the sake of your good attitude in pleading guilty and voluntarily confessing the charges, I am willing to show my favor."

"No killing is allowed for the time being."

"This cabinet will report the facts to the central government and wait for the central government's approval before making a decision."

When these guilty ministers heard that there was Xu'er, they burst into tears.

"but!"

Wang Hong made another twist: "Although the death penalty is exempted, you must pay a confession fee, double the profit you made at sea!"

"Submit it in, and we can wait for the central government's approval for the time being!"

"Anyone who cannot hand it over will be executed immediately!"

Doesn't this cost money?

The guilty officials understood as soon as they heard this, where was Wang Hong investigating the case?

It was because the emperor was short of money that he decided to go to Southern Zhili and beat all the officials in Southern Zhili first, forcing the officials to lose money and avoid disaster.

Then they let these officials continue to be officials, let them continue to be corrupt, continue to engage in maritime trade, and harvest wool again during the New Year.This is the old way.

It would be nice if you just said it, why bother to torture us?

They all breathed a sigh of relief.

Is it still a problem that can be solved with money?

After a few years, greed came back.

"Who has any objection?" Wang Hong asked.

"I have no objections to my rank and file and are willing to pay the confessional silver!" the guilty officials shouted in unison.

Fan Cong thought of the dead Gong Li.

Gong Li died unjustly.

How unjust it is to have your family confiscated and your entire family exterminated because of a little money.

The ones who were even more wronged were Cheng Tong and Cheng Xian.

They are monkeys, monkeys who kill chickens to scare other monkeys.

"it is good!"

Wang Hong breathed a sigh of relief. He would not hand over the confessional money without beating them painfully.

"I will ask people to treat your injuries, and you will continue to work in various departments for the time being. There will be someone from the East Factory to supervise you."

"You will send people home to raise money."

"Hmph, if someone wants money rather than life, then I will use the Emperor's Sword!"

If he were killed directly, he would definitely not be able to get the money.

Many of these people are on ships at sea. They can load their belongings on ships and then sail across the ocean to live happily overseas.

They must be stabilized and slaughtered bit by bit.

Only in this way can the money be kept in Ming Dynasty.

By the way, return to the center.

"I don't dare to lower my rank!" the guilty ministers cried.

If you want money, you need money. Why do you want to hit us?

After being beaten like this, you still have to go to work!

What kind of life did we live?

This court meeting has come to an end.

But this is just Wang Hong’s first success.

The second fire, gentry!
And in Jiangxi.

Sha Xuan traveled hundreds of miles and arrived at Nanchang Mansion. Standing at the gate of Hu Yan's house, he felt that his legs were weak.

He is a fan and doesn't know much about the history of the country.

But after a little inquiry, I found out about Hu Yan's reputation.

This Jiangxi bell is so beautiful, how many courtiers are standing in the Fengtian Palace?How many of these people are Hu Yan's disciples and former officials?
Countless!

Now, Sha Xuan was ordered to investigate the Hu family.

No matter what the outcome is, he, Sha Hyun, may not be able to save his life.

"Admiral, you are really cruel."

The key is, Sa Hyun knew he was going to die, but he still had to work for Jin Zhong.

Because he has a family and he has to earn a future for his son.

As long as he does a good job, Jin Zhong will definitely give his son a good future; if he perfunctory Jin Zhong and others die, his son will inevitably become unknown and Jin Zhong will not care.

Alas, it’s worth trading your own life for your son’s future!

Bang bang bang!
Sha Xuan knocked on the door of Hu's house.

The Hu family's house was given by Emperor Taizong, and the plaque was also inscribed by Emperor Taizong himself.

Passers-by are not allowed to ride in sedans or horses, and passing officials must pay homage to the plaque.

Sha Hyun also knelt down before knocking on the door.

The door cracked open a crack, and an old man stuck his head out, speaking politely.

"Shaxuan, the Jin Yiwei, is visiting the head of the Hu family."

As soon as I heard about Jin Yiwei.

The door of the mansion suddenly closed.

When it was opened the next moment, an old man staggered out: "Old man Hu Zhao, pay my respects to Mr. Jin Yiwei."

Hu Zhao is the third son of Hu Yan.

Now he is over seventy years old and still in good health.

He is not the owner of this mansion, so he was used as a shield.Because he is the person closest to Hu Yan, even the emperor would have to give him three points if he was around.

The owner of this mansion is Hu Yan's eldest grandson, Hu Xi.

Hu Xi also followed Hu Zhao and was very polite to Sha Xuan.

Originally, the Hu family greeted each other with great courtesy, so Sha Xuan should treat him with courtesy.

result.

Sha Xuan pulled out the knife and put it on Hu Zhao's neck.

Hu Zhao was confused. Is this a bandit?
"Tai Gong Hu, I am just a mere fan of Jin Yiwei. If you visit the Hu family today, you will definitely die regardless of whether you are successful or not!"

Sha Xuan said seriously: "But there is a destiny on the mountain, and the villain dare not disobey it."

"I can only offend Mr. Hu!"

Hu Zhao glanced at his nephew Hu Xi, who did you provoke?
Hu Xi did not dare to look at Hu Zhao.

He still invited Sha Xuan into the courtyard. After all, beating and killing people at the entrance of the courtyard would bring shame to the Hu family!
But when a Jinyi guard came to Hu's house, the whole Nanchang mansion was immediately alarmed.

Sha Xuan took the risk: "I, the Jinyi Guards, found a large number of ordnance in Pengzehu Water Village. It is estimated that there are tens of thousands of bows and crossbows, [-] arrows, and countless swords!"

"According to the confession of the owner of the water village, it was Ma Zhuo, a wealthy family in Penghu, who was temporarily placed in the water village."

"And my Jin Yiwei arrested Ma Zhuo again. After interrogation, Ma Zhuo admitted that these weapons came from your Hu family!"

"I would like to ask Mr. Hu, is this true or false?"

Hu Zhao was confused. Is there anyone else trying cases like this?
Shouldn't you, Jin Yiwei, check whether it's true or not?

The problem is that we Jin Yiwei want to check, can we find it?
Seeing that no one was waiting in the main hall, Sha Xuan sneered: "You don't need to ask for help. I, Sha Xuan, am just a pawn. I know I will die and have no intention of living."

"For the rest of my life, this villain must find out the truth about this one thing!"

Hu Zhao saw it, and Sha Xuan kept saying that he would die because his father Hu Yan had too many disciples and old officials. Even if Sha Xuan returned home today, he would be impeached by the court, and the emperor would not protect him as a little royal guard. .

"Sir, can you put down the blade first? My uncle is not feeling well, please forgive me." Hu Xi said.

Sha Hyun asked: "The villain can move the blade away from your neck, but who will move the blade away from the villain's neck?"

His tone was full of whining.

Who wants to die?
Even if an earthworm lives in vain, let alone a human being?
Hu Xi smiled bitterly: "My Hu family is definitely not involved in this matter."

"This matter must be that Ma Zhuo bit him randomly. My Hu family is innocent."

"And if you enforce the law impartially, you will definitely be praised. How can you get yourself burned?"

These words are telling Sha Xuan that as long as you show your respect, nothing will happen to my family and nothing will happen to you.

The problem is that something is wrong with Jin Zhong!

Jin Zhong sent him to investigate just because he wanted to blame the Hu family!

Take the opportunity to clean Nanchang Mansion!
If he fails to achieve his goal, Sha Xuan will die even worse.

Hu Zhao glanced at his nephew, why are you so stupid?This is the Imperial Guard. What would the emperor think if he was afraid of civil servants?
Jinyiwei was introduced by the emperor to compete with civil servants!
If you make Jin Yiwei afraid of you, then the Hu family will be in great trouble!
Idiot, if you can't speak, just shut up!

Hu Zhao instead suspected his nephew Hu Xi. Could he really be involved in the arms smuggling case?

"Sir, if you are upright, you are not afraid of slanting shadows. Please investigate carefully. The Hu family will definitely cooperate." Hu Zhao neither admitted nor answered. He mainly talked nonsense.

Sha Hyun didn't understand their twists and turns.

He knew that Admiral Jin sent him here to achieve his goal.

"Hu Taigong, your Hu family has the final say in Nanchang Mansion. Even if I investigate, I won't be able to find anything."

Sha Xuan sighed: "The villain can only fight for this small life to make you take the initiative to speak."

"Come on!"

"Gather everyone in the Hu family!"

"I will count to three and kill one person!"

"Until you get an answer that satisfies me!"

Hu Xi jumped up: "Sir, are you a guard or a bandit?"

"How can anyone try a case like this?"

"My family has obviously been wronged, but you don't care about it."

"Instead, they killed members of my family and forced my family to admit their crimes. What's the point of this?"

puff!
Sha Xuan suddenly raised his knife and slashed Hu Xi's chest: "That's the truth!"

"what!"

Hu Xi screamed.

Xia Tian was wearing thin clothes, and his chest was scratched, dripping with blood.

This Sa Hyun is simply lawless!
No matter the reason, just kill him Hu Xi!
"Sir, this is the residence of Hu Yan, the guest of the late prince!"

"Although the common people have no official position or fame, they are the grandsons of Duke Hu!"

"My family will abide by the virtues of our ancestors, be friendly to our neighbors, and give alms to the village. We will be famous in Nanchang Prefecture as a virtuous person, and as a virtuous person in the world. We will serve the country with kindness and enthusiasm."

"How did you end up like this?"

Hu Xi looked up to the sky and shouted: "Grandpa, open your eyes and see how the Ming Dynasty has become like this!"

And when he shouted.

Many officials appeared outside the door, including Nanchang Prefecture Magistrate, Fu Cheng and other officials, but what really frightened Sha Xuan was Jiangxi Governor Ma Jin!

Although Ma Jin was not Hu Yan's disciple or former official, he always followed Hu Yan as an example. He also learned from Hu Yan and taught all people.

When Jin Yiwei entered the Nanchang Mansion, the major forces had already received rumors that the ledgers should be destroyed, the ledgers should be cleared, and the ledgers should be hidden.

But he never expected that when Jin Yiwei came to Nanchang Mansion, his first sword would be aimed at Hu Yan's descendants!

Ma Jin received the news and had to treat it with caution.

Come and have a look with many officials.

But I didn't expect to see this scene.

You, Jin Yiwei, are investigating the Hu family, so that’s all.

However, this Jinyiwei fanzi actually used a knife to chop Hu Yan's eldest grandson Hu Xi, and the matter became serious.

"stop!"

When Ma Jin entered the house, she saw Sha Xuan holding the knife high, as if he wanted to kill Hu Xi.

If he doesn't shout stop, the problem will become serious.

"My lord, make the decision for my Hu family!"

Hu Xi lay on the ground, blood dripping from his chest, and Yin Ran turned into bloody flowers: "I, the Hu family, follow the instructions of our ancestors and pass down the classics to our family, and we dare not do anything excessive!"

"This Jin Yiwei, relying on his power, does not regard my family as human beings. He arrogantly said that he would kill one of my Hu family members three times and regarded the lives of my Hu family members as nothing."

"I think my grandfather devoted himself to serving the people. After becoming an official, he was indifferent to his ambitions and loved his hometown. Why did the butcher's knife fall on my Hu family?"

"Sir, you have to make the decision for the Hu family!"

Hu Xi endured the severe pain and kowtowed.

Ma Jin knew that this matter was difficult to handle!
The same goes for Jin Zhong, why did he send a stupid young man here?
However, he also understood in an instant that Jin Zhong just wanted to kill a few members of the Hu family and then take the opportunity to clean up Nanchang Mansion.

He thought too simply!

If Jiangxi was so easy to plow, the emperor wouldn't have to send him Ma Jin, and Jin Zhong would be in charge at the same time.

You can kill a few minions, no problem.

But don’t even think about touching the descendants of these important ministers.

These people are political families. When those in power are in power, they will use various means to seek official positions for their family members. Over time, their tentacles spread all over the place and form a deep-rooted political group. Even if the person in power is gone, a huge and deep-rooted political group will be formed. power.

The last time you killed a descendant of Hu Guang, you caught them off guard.

This time, it's not that simple.

"I am Ma Jin, the governor of Jiangxi. Put away your sword!"

After you stop drinking.

Ma Jin quickly helped Hu Xi up.

But Hu Xi was stunned and couldn't get up, and insisted on asking Ma Jin to give him an explanation.

"Master Hu, this is the Jinyi Guard handling the case."

"Although I am the governor, I have no control over Jinyiwei."

Ma Jin said calmly: "It's better to ask a doctor to take a look first. Don't hurt your body."

"I will write a letter to Admiral Jin now and ask Admiral Jin to give you an explanation."

"What do you think of this approach?"

Hu Xi was slightly startled, are you using Jin Zhong to suppress me?

No matter how many of Hu Yan's disciples and old officials he has, it's just that the tea has gone cold. This kind of relationship is used less and less, and it is not even sure whether he is willing to stand up for them.

Jin Zhong is different. He is the emperor's favorite. Which official dares to provoke Jin Zhong?Isn’t that going against the emperor?

"Sir, it doesn't matter if the common people are injured!"

Hu Xi cried: "But the main hall, which was once the place where my grandfather taught students, has been defiled. It has gone underground. How can the common people explain to my grandfather?"

He didn't dare to talk about Emperor Taizong's plaque.

That's stupid.

The Jin Yiwei represents the emperor. If you use Taizong's plaque to talk about things, aren't you scolding the emperor for being unfilial?Besides killing all the Hu family members and throwing Hu Yan into a manure pit, how else could the emperor end it?

Therefore, Hu Xi was very smart and only talked about the merits of Hu Yan's teachings.

Hu Zhao also knelt on the ground and prayed to his late father.

Seeing the performance of the Hu family's uncle and nephew, Ma Jin felt dizzy.

Look, Jin Yiwei just entered the Hu Mansion, and even he, the governor, was alarmed, which shows the influence of the Hu family.

It's also Shaxuan's fault. Why didn't you say hello to him in advance when you came to Nanchang Mansion?

"Tai Gong Hu, the head of the Hu family!"

Sha Xuan suddenly said: "The first thing I said when I entered your house was that I came with the intention of dying!"

"You said that the villain has defiled Mr. Hu."

"The villain is willing to sacrifice his life to repay, is that enough?"

Sha Xuan pointed at the people in Jin Yiwei: "If one life of the villain is not enough, there are 47 Jin Yiwei in total. If we add them all together, we can return them to Mr. Hu. Is that enough?"

Hu Xi was startled by the killing intent and looked at Ma Jin with tears on his face.

Ma Jin wants to pretend to be dead!

Hu Yan was someone he admired, and he really wanted to win over the Hu family.

But Hu Xi is so good at acting that he has to break up with Jin Yiwei. What can I do?
Sha Xuan was also cruel and put the knife on his neck: "Everyone, listen to my order, put it on your neck, commit suicide with me, and apologize to Mr. Hu!"

The fans were all dumbfounded.

We are here to make a fortune, not to risk our lives!

But there is a destiny on the mountain, and they have to listen even if they don't want to.

But the most dumbfounded person was Hu Xi.

Who does Jin Yiwei represent?
Represents the emperor!

Jin Yiwei was forced to commit suicide, so what would the Hu family do?Rebellion and becoming emperor?

"Sir, wait a minute!"

Hu Xi panicked: "My lord, please listen to the common people for a moment."

"The villain has dirty the land of Mr. Hu. I am willing to die in retribution!" Sha Xuan sneered.

Use the governor of Jiangxi to suppress me?
I will scare you to death!

We are Jin Yiwei, and the only one who can kill us is Your Majesty!

"Sir, our ancestors restrained themselves, returned to etiquette, and set an example. How could you watch a living person die because of a few family rules?"

Hu Xi was really panicked.

He acted to expel Jin Yiwei and prevent Jin Yiwei from investigating the case.

As a result, Jin Yiwei came to apologize with death and did not follow the routine.

Sha Xuan said: "The villain is a rough man and can't understand refined words!"

"The villain only knows that if you make a mistake, you must take responsibility."

"The villain made a mistake and offended Mr. Hu's family. The villain is willing to repay with his life!"

"This is fair!"

"If it reaches His Majesty's ears, Your Majesty will not say anything for the villain!"

Sha Hyun pretends to die.

Hu Xi was so frightened that he cried. If the news reaches His Majesty’s ears, he will kill all nine members of the Hu family!

No matter how powerful the Hu family is, they can't force Jin Yiwei to death!

"If you die, please kill the common people first!" Hu Xi shouted.

Watching Sa Hyun and Hu Xi acting.

Ma Jin shook his head and smiled bitterly. He could only act as a middleman to resolve the problem with Xini.

Sha Xuan said, "Master Governor, I came here on the order of the Admiral to investigate the case of hiding ordnance."

"The Hu family tree has big roots and deep roots, and Jin Yiwei dare not check it."

"Sha Xuan is incompetent, so we can only ask Lord Admiral Jin to personally take charge of Nanchang Mansion, and then ask for His Majesty's imperial decree to investigate the case."

Ma Jin was surprised. She originally thought that Sha Xuan was a reckless man, but now it seems that he is also a smart person.

First, he easily defused Hu Xi's counterattack.

They moved Jin Zhong out again and used Jin Zhong to suppress Ma Jin, fearing that Ma Jin would help the Hu family.

"I am an official and you are a royal guard. We will not interfere with each other. If you need to investigate, just investigate. Just pretend that I don't exist."

Ma Jin also wanted to see what would happen if the Hu family was cut open.
He felt that the Hu family should not be able to make ordnance.

It is possible to smuggle something because Hu Yan once taught in Huating County and has many connections there.

The Hu family relies on this line to make some money, so they probably won't be able to escape.

But it is impossible for Hu Jiabao to make ordnance privately. Isn’t that a rebellion?
"Thank you, Governor!"

Sa Hyun salutes.

Hu Xi was dumbfounded. Aren't you, Ma Jin, here to help us?How come we were sold in a blink of an eye?

Hu Zhao coughed lightly and said, "The governor has come to the Hefu. The Hefu is already in tears of gratitude. I, the Hu family, are not afraid of shadows, so please ask the Jin Yiwei to check it out."

Hu Xi glanced at his uncle, but Hu Zhao shook his head.

Don't you see it?

Ma Jin and Jin Yiwei wear a pair of pants.

If they are not allowed to check, it means that the Hu family's buttocks are not clean.

The problem is, it’s so unclean!
Sha Xuan directly acted like a rogue: "The Hu family tree has deep roots. I, the Jin Yiwei, just visited your mansion and invited the governor, the magistrate of Nanchang Prefecture and other senior officials."

"How can I, Jin Yiwei, investigate? How dare I investigate?"

"The villain can only write to Admiral Jin and ask the Admiral to come in person to find out what happened!"

What's going on?What do you think? You don't want to investigate, but you want us to confess on our own initiative?

If it's a maritime trade matter, a confession is a confession.

The problem is ordnance!

There are so many ordnances, wouldn't it be certain to die if you admit them?

"Farewell!"

Sha Hyun walked away.

Hu Zhao and Hu Xi can't be dealt with.

Should we stay?Or what should I do?

They looked at Ma Jin.

Ma Jin thought that Sha Xuan was a bit interesting. He came here to investigate with the intention of dying. He kept investigating, but he didn't want to die anymore, so he invited Jin Zhong to die.

Does Jin Zhong know that he has a young man under his command?
Have you never thought about how to explain to Jin Zhong?
"what!"

Hu Xi suddenly screamed and fainted.

This is another personal essence.

Knowing that he had no choice now, he simply pretended to be dead and left the problem to his uncle Hu Zhao, who would decide the future of the Hu family.

Hu Zhao was stunned. I was just helping, so why did the blame fall on my head?
The problem is, everyone is looking at him.

If he doesn't give an explanation, there will be no way to end it.
