"How many?"
Wen Yuren asked his staff Zeng Xing.
Zeng Xing stretched out all his fingers: "One hundred thousand yuan!"
After hearing this, Wen Yuren couldn't help but drink the tea that had just been brought to his mouth: "After all, he is the magistrate of Kunshan! He is so rich!"
After Wen Yuren said that, he looked at Gui Jideng and said, "Have you finished writing the complaint? Although it is difficult to find out the mastermind behind the murder case, everyone with a discerning eye knows that it is related to the separation of the rich clan. I have decided to impeach him. Yan Maocai and Cai Yichen, the bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion and the Minister of Household Affairs, you, the lieutenant, will provide the necessary witness statements!"
"Please rest assured Futai! The student has already written it."
Gui Jiden replied and asked again: "But can your memorial get into His Majesty's hands?"
"Of course I can! I have the right to perform secret recordings!"
Wen Yuren replied.
"Students, thank you Futai on behalf of the classmates who died! It is rare for Futai to be upright. He would rather impeach your brother and make a good friend in his lifetime, but also complain for us Han people in Kunshan! Students will remember your great kindness! "
Gui Jideng knelt down as he spoke: "Please accept the students' bows!"
Wen Yuren hurriedly helped him up: "It doesn't have to be like this!"
…
"Damn it! What does his surname Wen mean? His younger brother actually came to my territory to make money, and even took away your leverage! Does he take me, the prince, seriously?"
Zhu Cikai was quite angry when he learned from the telegram sent by Yan Maocai that Wen Yuren went to Kunshan County to investigate.
"Fortunately, he is just trying to make money."
Niu San replied at this time.
"You'd better ask Mr. Ge to ask the man named Wen what he means."
Zhu Cikai said something.
"yes!"
"Xiang Wen, what does he mean by this young truth?"
Cai Yichen actually came to the cabinet that day and asked about Wen Tiren.
Wen Tiren started laughing: "What does Mr. Ge want to ask? I didn't understand!"
"Foolish brother heard that your brother went to Kunshan incognito to investigate the matter of relocating the big clans, and found out some bad things. Don't you know?"
Cai Yichen asked.
Wen Tiren shook his head: "He is his governor, and his servants are servants. Although they are brothers, they have to pay attention to their influence. How can they ask each other about their political affairs in private? I really don't know."
"Mr. Wen, there is some profit. If you really want to share it, you only need to give a hint. There is no need to do this. Of course, it's my fault that I didn't think carefully. It's not because I don't have the right to share the profit."
Cai Yichen explained.
"I'm going to the political hall! But please don't worry, my brother knows what's appropriate, and you can also reassure His Highness!"
Wen Tiren said and left in a carriage.
Cai Yichen breathed a sigh of relief when Wen Tiren reassured him.
…
"While I was impeaching Wenyuange University Scholar, the Crown Prince's Taibao, and the Minister of Household Affairs, Cai Yichen, for instigating the family slave Niu San to amass wealth while presiding over the relocation of the wealthy clans, any wealthy family could escape the disaster of relocating their clans by just paying money. As for the poor people, they cannot escape the disaster of relocating their clans if they don't pay, and the policy of benefiting the people turns into a policy of abusing the people! As a result, in Kunshan County where I visited privately, a wealthy family like the Xu family was not included in the list of relocated clans. But the Bohuanhan clan like the Gui clan was among the relocated clans! In this context, scholars were even massacred!"
Zhu Youxiao looked at the density of Wen Yuren coming up, and his face became more solemn as he looked at it, and ordered: "Pass Han Zanzhou!"
Not long after, Han Zanzhou walked in: "Your Majesty!"
"I asked you to investigate the situation of the seventh prince's friendship with officials after entering the capital. How did the investigation go?"
Zhu Youxiao asked.
Han Zanzhou was quite surprised after hearing this. He did not expect the emperor to ask about this matter so quickly, so he hurriedly replied: "Dongchang did investigate that some courtiers were in contact with His Highness the Seventh Prince. Among them were Guo Yichuan, the right minister of the Ministry of Posts, and the official There are Luo Zun, the official in charge of the imperial examination, and others, but there is another one who is not a courtier, but has a better background than these courtiers, and is also very close to the Seventh Prince."
"who is it?"
Zhu Youxiao asked.
"Niu San! This person claims to be a servant hired by Cai Ge's hometown, but he often visits many clubs and sends people to contact the Seventh Prince."
Han Zanzhou replied.
After hearing this, Zhu Youxiao asked, "Have you obtained any evidence of Niu San's crimes?"
"Yes, when Niu San was drunk one day, he said that his master, Mr. Cai Ge, had bought three hundred dead men in the mansion and prepared three hundred percussion guns. He will help the Seventh Prince seize the throne in the future!"
Han Zanzhou replied.
What Han Zanzhou said was naturally false.
No matter how stupid Cai Yichen is, he will never be so stupid as to directly hide firearms to help the seventh prince seize the throne.
But Han Zanzhou knew that if he, the admiral of the East Factory, wanted to satisfy the emperor and really be able to capture the people the emperor wanted to get rid of, he must learn to frame traps and create some conspiracies.
He used to be relatively honest and didn't know that he had to do this to find out the real villain behind the scenes. It was only after he learned about Wei Zhongxian's previous behavior in detail that he realized that Dongchang not only investigated cases, but also created them. Satisfy your own emperor.
Because a person like Cai Yichen will not reveal any clues that he is directly involved in some major cases. He usually only sends his domestic slaves or disciples to do things, and if something happens, he can just deduce it. When it comes to their own slaves or disciples, they say that these things have nothing to do with them, and they even pretend to be aggrieved and need the emperor to comfort their injured hearts.
This requires Dongchang to use some means.
In order for an old cunning man like Cai Yichen to be successfully convicted, he can only be related to rebellion.
After all, it's easy to frame a rebellion, just hide some prohibited firearms secretly in your home.
This is how Liu Jin fell in history.
That's why Han Zanzhou said this at this time.
Zhu Youxiao naturally understood everything here, but now he was just pretending to be stupid, and nodded and said: "Pass the order! Bring the ministers and cabinet ministers to see me. After conveying the order, you can take him to capture him yourself." That Niu San captured the Cai Mansion!"
"According to the order!"
Han Zanzhou replied.
…
After Liu Hongxun and other assistant ministers and Cai Yichen and other cabinet ministers arrived at Zhu Youxiao, Zhu Youxiao first ordered: "The cabinet first issued an order to Chen Xinbu of the Southeast Navy Fleet, ordering it not to send ships for the time being, and to pass the order to Jiangnan Governor, please suspend the relocation of the big clans."
Cai Yichen was surprised after hearing this and couldn't help but glance at Wen Tiren.
At this time, Zhu Youxiao did not wait for these ministers to speak, and said: "Wen Yuren, the governor of Jiangnan, told me that Yan Maocai, the magistrate of Kunshan, took advantage of the opportunity of relocating the wealthy families to make money! In Kunshan, all the wealthy families only need to pay bribes. If a small clan fails to pay a bribe, it will be relocated. Good guy, eating both ends is very dark. It is said that this is the intention of the elder Cai Yichen! He also specially presented it to me Give me a three-hand letter from your hired slave Niu!"
After hearing this, Cai Yichen felt as if thunder struck his head. He fell to the ground with cold sweat breaking out on his forehead: "This, this, this, I really don't know, I don't know!"
"You don't know? Do you really want to wait for my people to pry out the truth from Niu San, your slave slave, before you tell me the truth?"
Zhu Youxiao asked in a cold tone.
At this time, Cai Yichen only felt tight in his chest and short of breath. He couldn't help but hold on, and replied with the words he had thought of in the past: "Although I have repeatedly warned my family not to act recklessly outside in my name, maybe Dingchen's family still hasn't Listening to the words of the minister and acting recklessly outside is just like Yuan Fu's brother who does not listen to the words of Yuan Fu and does evil in the local area. There may be something that I cannot discipline."
"Is it just that you can't discipline yourself?"
Zhu Youxiao asked.
"Yes! Your Majesty, please take a closer look!"
At this time, Han Zanzhou walked in: "Your Majesty! I was ordered to confiscate the Cai Mansion. As expected, I confiscated 300 firing guns and five boxes of ammunition in the Cai Mansion!"
Han Zanzhou said and ordered: "Bring him in!"
Cai Yichen was shocked after hearing this: "This, this is a false accusation! This is a false accusation! I am wronged, I am wronged! Your Majesty!"
