Immediately afterwards, Zhu Xiaochuan, Ma Wuming and others came forward to save a few favors, and Li Wanjiang did everything without saying a word.
As for the other relatives, they were all captured immediately and imprisoned in Jinyiwei Prison for questioning!
Those whose crimes are proven will be killed directly without mercy!
But I still don't want to see blood. No matter how heinous the crime is, I can't use the knife, or give them white silk, or give them poisonous wine, or give them suicide, leaving them all with intact corpses.
Firstly, it will give the royal family some dignity, and secondly, it will also show my family affection.
Immediately, the Jinyi Guards were dispatched to various places on Pegasus, and combined with the local garrison and Jinyi Guards, they captured the relatives of the relatives and of course ransacked their homes.
Any male in the family who is over fifteen years old will be punished with death!
All the other female family members and children were escorted back to Beijing, either to work in the palace clothes bureau to forgive their sins, or to guard the mausoleum of the Queen Mother.
For those who are generals, the Ministry of War will send people to pick up the seals. All officers with more than a thousand households in the army will be escorted back to the capital. After interrogation, their life and death will be decided. Any vacancies left will be taken from the Black Dragon Guard. Choose an alternative...
Li Wanjiang has always been decisive and resolute in his work. Either he doesn't do it or he does it thoroughly!
Lin Han came out of the imperial prison after eating in vain, and went directly to report to Li Wanyun. Li Wanyun was so interesting that he immediately sent him to the Jiangnan Army as a personal soldier, but in fact he was an aide.
He was also allowed to select a thousand people from his old Jiangdong ministry to serve in the army. Li Wanyun's reputation was as big as the sky, so the Ministry of War approved all of them without hesitation.
As soon as Shi Mingtao returned home and before he could even sit down, a team of guards came and sealed his front and rear doors. Everyone stayed at home and no one was allowed to go out. Later, Liu Wenzheng, the doctor of the Ministry of Finance, would take him with him. People come and ransack your home!
The family had just been overjoyed when they heard the bad news and began to tremble again. After all, they had never experienced anything like a house raid...
Madams like the other ladies are crying like pear blossoms and raining rain, as if they were mourning a heir. Sir, sir, your life has been saved, but our family is gone. What will we do in the future?
Master, can't you take us to beg for food? The emperor confiscated our home, maybe because he wanted to starve us to death, and he was afraid that he wouldn't even be able to beg for food.
"Stop howling in mourning. I'm not dead yet! Stop howling here. Go back to your room and clean up. Put away all the shameful things in the woman's house. Don't embarrass me. Take out all the delicates too, don't wait for someone to search the bed and suffer the humiliation in vain." Shi Mingtao was still calm.
"Haha, what's going on? Isn't it a good thing for you to come back, Mingtao? Why are you crying now?"
Shi Mingtao looked up and saw that Xiao Chen was here in person!
He rushed over and was about to kowtow in greeting, but was hugged by Xiao Chen, "We are all brothers, why are you doing this? I just heard that you came out, and I was going to serve you a drink to take away the bad luck, but I heard They said they were going to raid your home, so they could only come over and have a drink with you with food and wine to calm your nerves." Xiao Chen said with a smile.
"Okay, my boss, you are the only one who can say this and do this!" Shi Mingtao really couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this, but he was also moved to tears, knowing that Xiao Chen was supporting him. coming……
As long as he is here, let alone confiscate your home, I am not afraid of beheading you!
Liu Wenzheng came with a large group of people to search his house according to the order. Before he could take out the imperial edict, he saw Xiao Chen and was shocked. "Boss Xiao, why are you here? Did I go to the wrong door?"
"What a fart! Have you always been thinking about raiding my house?" Xiao Chen scolded with a smile.
"It's useless to worry about it. With my status as Sesame Mung Bean, I can come to Mingtao's house to show off my power. If I want to raid your boss's house, we, Mr. Chen Wenqi, will have to come forward in person." Liu Wenzheng said with a smile, " Brother Mingtao, please don't blame me, brother, I am also on an errand under orders."
He was very polite, but Shi Mingtao didn't dare to make any excuses. He had already led his family members to kneel down and didn't dare to answer easily.
"Don't talk nonsense. I'm warning you, Ming Tao is my brother. You guys are ransacking my house. If anyone dares to be rude to my sister-in-law and nephews, don't blame me. Get mad!" Everyone knows Xiao Chen's temper, and he really does what he says.
Not to mention the several principals from the household department who came with them, who repeatedly apologized and said they didn't dare, the guards in royal robes were all silent and didn't dare to let out another fart.
"What are you doing standing there in a daze? Why don't you all go back to your room quickly, tidy up your belongings, and wait for the gentlemen to take care of you!" Shi Mingtao said to the ladies behind him.
When the ladies saw this formation, their faces turned pale with fright. They agreed repeatedly, but they didn't get up, mainly because their legs were too weak to get up.
"Ming Tao, don't talk nonsense. What kind of things do you need to check on the clothes of your sisters-in-law? It's just clothes and jewelry. How much money are they worth? You can keep them all." Xiao Chen's tone was so loud, "Wen Zheng, what do you think?"
"Then it's up to you, Boss Xiao, to answer the question?" Liu Wenzheng said angrily, "Why, you, Boss Xiao, and Ming Tao are brothers, and I am not his brother! Brother Ming Tao, you can keep any old ancestral items at home. A few pieces, and some of the old furniture are also selected to be kept. The emperor has said that this house will be kept for you. How can you live without furniture?"
"Can this and this also be used?" Shi Mingtao asked tremblingly.
"What's not allowed?" Liu Wenzheng said carelessly, "Why is it that he, Boss Xiao, can only do favors, but I can't do it, brother? Why are there still food and drinks...Brother, I'll go and get busy first, and I'll come back to drink with you later. ." It's as if he didn't come to ransack the house, but to drink.
But Liu Wenzheng was indeed in a good mood, because confiscating a home was a big deal, and it was also the home of Shi Mingtao, a rich man...
Needless to say, it's because of the good work I did in the memorial, otherwise the emperor would not have given this good job to him. So this time, it is the same as the last time I sent Concubine Liu to visit her. It was to make a fortune, and you are not going to make a fortune. Will not work!
Is it okay to resist the decree and disrespect it?
As for favors, that is something that must be done. Not to mention the huge reputation of boss Xiao Chen, even Shi Mingtao will definitely be able to stand up in the future.
Since the emperor didn't kill him, he only loved him, so after this bloody storm, Shi Mingtao was still a relative of the emperor!
He can still make a fortune, can he not return the favor then?
It's impossible not to pay it back.
This is the exchange of favors.
Moreover, after such an incident, Minister Chen Wenqi also looked at himself with admiration. He usually only called himself Doctor Liu, but now he calls him Wenzheng affectionately.
Many of his colleagues have become ambiguous towards him. Those who usually never visit him now come to visit him and flatter him.
He even got a chance to be summoned by the emperor alone!
Although the questions they asked were all business matters, Long Yan Heyue's words made him burst into tears and he couldn't help himself.
All signs indicate that he, Liu Wenzheng, is about to become famous!
