Yan Qi pointed at Du Hong's rotting corpse and glared at Yang Ke: "Looking at the corpse of this poor woman, will your conscience hurt?"
"Today, if you still shield Qian Lu and speak for Qian Lu without conscience, do you believe that tonight, Du Hong's ghost will take you away, push you into a well and drown you to death?"
Yang Ke was so frightened that he stood up.
Paled face.
Looking at Du Hong's rotting corpse, I felt uneasy and tried not to vomit.
Yan Qi opened the door of the Punishment Department, carrying the killing stick, as if beating a dog: "Prime Minister Yang, you can leave now, so as not to vomit in the execution hall and stain the solemnity and sanctity of the Punishment Department."
"Also, doesn't Prime Minister Yang want to go to the Eight Wise Kings to intercede for Qian Lu? Then go and ask the Eight Wise Kings to come and ask about this matter. It's also a good thing. I don't even have Mao's opinion."
"This is called not doing bad things and not being afraid of ghosts. Hey, even if the Eight Wise Kings call me, I'm not afraid either."
Yang Ke was so angry when he heard this.
What's the point of looking for support from the Eight Wise Kings now?
Better hindsight than hindsight.
Qian Lu has admitted to the murder and kidnapping.
The evidence of these crimes is overwhelming.
Even if the gods come, they can't reverse the verdict.
No matter how cruel the Eight Wise Kings were, they could not turn things around in the face of irrefutable evidence and Du Hong's rotting corpse.
Yang Ke closed his eyes and let out a sigh of relief.
Alas, this time the battle was completely defeated.
Yang Ke left the Penal Department Yamen dejectedly.
Qian Lu cried and shouted: "Prime Minister Yang, save me, save me quickly, I will give you one million taels of silver, please save me quickly, don't leave, I have plenty of money, I will give you money..."
Yang Ke turned a deaf ear and ran faster.
The figure quickly disappeared.
Yan Qi smiled and looked at Qian Lu: "Although you have money, Prime Minister Yang can't afford it."
Qian Lu looked at Yan Qi pitifully: "Vice Minister Yan, you can afford it. Do you want any money? I will give you one million taels. Please let me go. I have plenty of money."
Yan Qi's eyes were disdainful: "How much money do you have? I'm sorry, all that money will be confiscated. How much is it, how much will be confiscated."
"What?"
Qian Lu lay on the ground, lowered his feet and stretched his chest.
Regret endlessly.
Yan Qi took the killing stick and stabbed it hard on the ground a few times: "Go on and explain, what is the money for tax evasion and tax evasion?"
how many? If you don't want to die, do it quickly, but don't make me unhappy. No one can control my violent temper. "
Qian Lu was so frightened that his face turned green, so he could only continue to confess: "In the past four years, the revenue has been about four million taels of silver, and the tax revenue is about half, more than two million taels of silver..."
Zhu Nan presented the accountant's confession: "Deputy Prime Minister Yan, we are right again."
Yan Qi nodded: "Where is the money hidden? Where is it deposited? What kind of bank? Get it from the truth."
Qian Lu was trembling with fear: "There are more than one million taels of silver hidden at home, and there are more than one million taels of silver in Delong Bank."
Yan Qi made a decision immediately: "Qi Shangshu, you continue to investigate the case. Wan Shangshu and Mr. Zhu, follow me to Delong Bank to clear Qianlu's account. After clearing the bank's money, go to Qianlu's house to search the house."
Everyone acted separately.
In two hours, everything was resolved.
The one million taels of silver hidden in Qian Lu's home has been turned over to the Ministry of Household Affairs.
The more than one million taels of silver from Delong Bank was included in the account of the Department of Accounts.
Yan Qi was particularly happy: "Qi Shangshu, Wan Shangshu, and Master Zhu, you worked together and added more than two million taels of silver to Dahua's treasury."
"Leaving aside other things, just filling the national treasury is a remarkable achievement. I will definitely ask for your credit above the imperial court."
"Thank you, Deputy Prime Minister Yan."
"It is our duty to share the worries of the imperial court."
"Working with Deputy Prime Minister Yan makes me feel very at ease."
Qi Ying, Wan Liang and Zhu Nan were very happy.
It's fun to work with Yan Qi.
After a moment of effort, he achieved great success.
Recharge the national treasury with two million taels of silver.
This is no small sum of money.
Moreover, corrupt officials were also punished.
It has special historical significance for both official reputation and official career.
Especially Junan.
Feeling great.
After this battle, the position of the Minister of Dali Temple was impregnable.
No one can compete with him for a seat.
Han Dongli and his ilk are not only disgraced because they go to whoring with their buttocks naked, they are no longer in the spotlight.
Even if Han Dongli is in good condition, based on Zhu Nan's current achievements, Han Dongli has no chance to compete with him.
Wan Liang is also extremely proud.
This is the largest amount of stolen money from tax evasion that he has collected since he took charge of the Ministry of Accounts.
As long as there is money in the treasury, it is his merit.
What Qi Ying gained was the reputation of being proud and fearless of the powerful.
Because Qian Lu was tried in his hands.
Qian Lu is also the nephew of the Eight Sages.
Calculating this way, Qi Ying's gain is actually the biggest.
Just with the merit of interrogating Qian Lu, Qi Ying's future will definitely be brighter.
…
After a night of conquest, Qian Lu's evil deeds were exposed one by one.
Everything is outrageous.
Qian Lu is dead.
Death is not a pity!
Qi Ying interrogated overnight and concluded Qian Lu's case.
A sentence of beheading was imposed.
Everything was waiting for Yan Qi to go to court the next day and report the case to the emperor.
…
That night!
There was a lot of crying in Prince Xian's palace.
Princess Xian knelt in front of King Xian, choking and losing her voice.
"Your Highness, Qian Lu is my nephew. How much have you done for Your Majesty and how many great things have you done over the years? Our back garden was all built by Qian Lu."
"When your prince goes to play in Jiaofangsi, Qian Lu'an will be there to serve you and make sure you are happy."
"Now, Qian Lu has been sentenced to death by Yan Qi? Please take action to save Qian Lu."
"knew."
The Eighth Sage King frowned impatiently: "My beloved, please go down first. Prime Minister Yang and I will discuss some matters."
Princess Xian refused to give up and cried: "Who is Yan Qi? A little servant, a humble little role, how dare you mess with our Qian family? My lord, if you take action, you can easily crush this little ant Yan Qi to death." ."
"Your Majesty, I don't need you to take action. I will take people to fish out Qian Lu now. I don't believe it. Who dares to mess with me? I just go to fish for people in such a fair and just way. Let's see who is ignorant and dares to treat me. Disrespectful?”
"If that little brat Yan Qi dares to mess with me, I will immediately show off my authority as a prince and scare him to death. Without further ado, I will go question that brat Yan Qi now..."
The Eighth Prince was irritated and furious. He raised his hand and slapped Princess Xian hard on the face.
Princess Xian was so beaten that she was stunned: "Your Majesty, please beat me..."
For decades, the wise king never beat her.
Unexpectedly, today because he was going to teach Yan Qi a lesson, he was severely beaten by the Eight Wise Kings.
