"Feng Boheng! I didn't expect you to be such a vengeful person. We are all clean-blooded and scholar-bureaucrats. Why would you add insult to injury like this! Are you really more ruthless than those eunuchs in Dongchang?!"
Seeing this, Sun Shenxing's disciple Jing Yangqiao, the head of the etiquette department, also hurriedly shouted at Feng Quan.
Feng Quan smiled: "Why are you so nervous? I'm just checking the list of official prostitutes in the Jiaofang Division under your Ministry of Rites!"
After Feng Quan said that, he directly asked people to search the roster in the Ministry of Rites.
Then, Feng Quan ordered a non-Donglin official he brought with him: "Check which official prostitutes under the age of fourteen are there, which ones are missing, whether they have special birthmarks, etc., make a separate register, and then put me I want you to go find the list of missing children from Shuntian Mansion, and tally them together, and follow me to Sun Mansion to investigate the case!"
As he spoke, Feng Quan looked at Sun Shenxing and said: "Shuntian Prefecture's Prime Minister Bi Gong (Bi Maokang), now Shao Sikong (Minister of Industry) Bi Budang, once said to Shuntian Prefecture that there have been cases of missing children one after another in Shuntian Prefecture. For this reason, Bibudang once ordered to search the whole city, but found nothing, but I heard in Hanlin that you gentlemen from Donglin said that there were sins in Liuhe Pavilion in your mansion!"
After saying that, Feng Quan said: "Let's go to Sun Mansion!"
"Wait!"
Jing Yangqiao shouted, and then said to Feng Quan: "Feng Boheng, what are you going to do? His Majesty only asked you to investigate government affairs, not to investigate any prison cases."
"Isn't it a matter of disappearance? Why did Chief Jing take the initiative to say that it was a prison case?"
Feng Quan asked, and then said: "I am the censor of Zuo Qiandu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. It is okay to check these things by the way."
With that said, Feng Quan took people to Sun Shenxing's mansion.
"Feng Yushi!"
Sun Shenxing could no longer remain calm, so he couldn't help but shout out in person.
Feng Quan stood still.
Sun Shenxing knelt down and hit his head on the ground: "Please Feng Gongwang, please be patient!"
Feng Quan glanced at him, then turned and left: "It's too late! Your body and skin are affected by your parents. If I, Feng, don't let your reputation be ruined today, it will be unfilial!"
"Mr. Feng! If you don't spare me once, I will crash to death here!"
Sun Shenxing suddenly shouted loudly and spoke.
Feng Quan turned around and said, "Then you'll be killed!"
Then, Feng Quan left the Rites Yamen directly.
Sun Shenxing looked at the beam next to him, then gritted his teeth and bumped into it.
"Teacher!"
Jing Yangqiao shouted loudly.
Sun Shenxing waited for Jing Yangqiao to stop him.
In the end, Jing Yangqiao just knelt down and said, "My mentor's strong character is admired by his students!"
Sun Shenxing was a little surprised when he saw this, but he had to grit his teeth and hit the beam. But just as he was about to hit it, Sun Shenxing still didn't dare, so he had to step back, sit on the ground, and shouted in pain: "I am a scholar. How come there are such scum among us!"
Feng Quan led people directly into the Sun Mansion and came to the Liuhe Pavilion. He dug up himself, and he actually pulled out naked corpses of boys, girls and children one after another.
"Incredible, really incredible!"
"There are whip marks and bruises on it! It's truly like a beast!"
The officials such as Qi Shijiao and others who came with Feng Quan couldn't help but were speechless.
"Go to the palace gate immediately to beat the drum and ask to see His Majesty!"
Feng Quan also said something hastily at this time.
"agree!"
Qi Shijiao and others all agreed.
…
"brute!"
When Zhu Youxiao learned about Sun Shenxing's evil deeds, he threw the handkerchief to the ground.
Wei Zhongxian hurriedly tidied up: "Your Majesty, please calm down. There is no need to be angry with such a beast."
"You, Dongchang, immediately detained Sun Shenxing, strictly interrogated the details and motives of his crime, and made the matter known to the world through the "Huang Ming Bao". In addition, the cabinet drafted an order to harass Sun Shenxing and ransack his home! This order was also published at the same time. In the newspaper.”
Zhu Youxiao immediately gave instructions to Wei Zhongxian.
"Slave, let's do it now!"
Wei Zhongxian left Zhu Youxiao in a hurry.
Therefore, Sun Shenxing was arrested by Dongchang, and soon because he could not withstand Dongchang's interrogation methods, he revealed all his sins and even the shameful habits of other scholar-officials.
At the same time, Feng Quan continued to investigate these Donglin civil servants who resigned, and continued to dig out all kinds of shocking information.
Until the end, Zhu Youxiao discovered that few of the Donglin civil servants who were resigning were truly honest and upright.
The ugly side of these Donglin gentlemen was also known to the world through the publication of "Huang Ming Bao".
Naturally, Jie Xuelong and other Donglin Party members found it difficult to accept this, and therefore deeply hated Feng Quan and others.
However, Xie Xuelong and other Donglin Party officials have no way to fight back now.
After all, no matter what Liu Yishui, Miao Changqi, Zhou Yanru and others did before and what Sun Shenxing and others are doing now, it is certain and cannot be denied.
…
at this time.
The Dongchang case investigators who were ordered to go to Liaodong to capture Wang Huazhen have also arrived in Shenyang.
However, Wang Huazhen, the Liao officials behind him, as well as Shanxi merchants and Donglu forces did not know that a major case had occurred because they wanted to engage in Xiong Tingbi.
After all, Zhu Youxiao sealed off the city in time to prevent the possibility of the news reaching their ears.
Of course, the main reason is that Zhu Youxiao attached great importance to the construction of factory guards as soon as he took office, and immediately mobilized the functions of Dongchang and Jinyiwei. Although Zhu Youxiao, the emperor, could not completely control the entire world, he still wanted to do something in the capital. OK.
Wang Huazhen was still immersed in the fantasy of relying on the power of the Donglin Party to overthrow Xiong Tingbi and be promoted to governor of Liaodong.
In fact, Wang Huazhen and other officials had already begun to distance themselves from Liaodong governor Xiong Tingbi and became close to Liaodong governor Yuan Yingtai.
"According to the news sent back by Fan Yuqing, this time, Dukes Zhang Xiude and Wei Yingjia came up with evidence that Xiong Tingbi bribed and formed a party. It will be a matter of time before Xiong Tingbi steps down, and in the future, Liaodong's courage will probably rest on you, Duke Yuan. ah!"
At this time, Wang Huazhen smiled and talked to Yuan Yingtai.
Yuan Yingtai only touched the beard under his chin and said: "I hope so. Mr. Xiong is too headstrong and does not listen to good words. It is really inappropriate to use him as a strategy! Take the Mongolian refugees as an example. These are obviously A good source of soldiers, but the result is that he does not allow them to enter the city, insisting that there are spies among them! Isn't this intentional to force the Mongolian refugees to fall to the Eastern captives?!"
"Goodbye, Mr. Yuan!"
Wang Huazhen replied with great indignation: "Xiong Tingbi should have been dismissed from his post earlier. Otherwise, as long as he is in Liao, the affairs of Liao will become worse every day!"
"There is an order from the ministry to see the right counselor Wang Huazhen!"
But not long after Wang Huazhen finished speaking, Xiong Tingbi's military attache from the First Biao Battalion came with Shang Fang's sword and conveyed Xiong Tingbi's order.
Although Wang Huazhen was dissatisfied with Xiong Tingbi, she was still ordered to come to Xiong Tingbi.
However, the civil service has never been very particular about superiority and inferiority. Especially now that Wang Huazhen is close to Donglin Party officials, she said disdainfully: "I don't know what the ministry is saying when it summons a subordinate?"
Xiong Tingbi said nothing and only looked at the Dongchang case investigators behind him.
At this time, Sun Yunhe, the director of Dongchang Jutou, came out: "According to the order! Capture the imperial convict Wang Huazhen, the right counselor of the Chief Secretary of Liaodong, and come to Beijing!"
"Take it!"
With that said, Sun Yunhe shouted loudly.
Wang Huazhen's face suddenly turned pale after hearing this.
