"Zhang Chenglin! Don't slander anyone! When did I ever give you orders?" Han Tong was shocked, pointing at Zhang Chenglin's nose and yelling.
Zhang Chenglin, who only wanted to save the lives of his family, refused to give in and said: "Cheng Han! If it weren't for your instigation! The little chief secretary would have dared to frame Lord Jing Zhaoyin!"
Han Tong's face instantly turned pale as a sheet.
However, Han Tong was indeed a second-class Jinshi, so his reaction was not unpleasant.
Han Tong yelled loudly in an instant: "Zhang Chenglin! You keep saying that I instigated it, but where is the evidence! If you don't have evidence, don't bite the bullet!"
The words just fell.
Han Tong turned slightly and bowed to Xu Yi and said, "Your Excellency, I don't know. There has always been a rift between this official and Zhang Chenglin."
Xu Yi smiled and said calmly: "What does Han Fucheng mean that Zhang Chenglin failed to frame me, and instead wants to drag Han Fucheng into trouble?"
"That's right! Your Majesty, it's clear to you." Han Tong's face straightened, and he hurriedly raised his hands and bowed again.
Xu Yi smiled and reassured: "Don't worry, Han Fucheng. I will not wrongly accuse a good person, but I will not let a bad person go. If Zhang Chenglin really framed you, he will be punished for several crimes. I will sentence him to It is also legal to kill everyone in the family."
As for the rift between the two, Xu Yi didn't believe a word of it.
Han Tong's face turned ugly again when he heard this.
Xu Yi seemed to be comforting, but in fact his words were full of warnings.
as expected.
Xu Yi just finished speaking.
Zhang Chenglin knelt on his knees and kowtowed to the ground several times.
There was a loud banging sound on the bluestone floor.
When Zhang Chenglin raised his head again, there was blood on his forehead.
"Your Majesty, it's clear to me! Everything I said is true!" Zhang Chenglin cried loudly: "Yesterday, the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty personally confessed. How could I risk the lives of my family and talk nonsense?"
Xu Yi looked at Zhang Chenglin and said calmly: "Is there any evidence? If there is no evidence, how can I trust you?"
"Only Xiao Xiao and Han Fu Cheng were here yesterday..." Zhang Chenglin's eyes dimmed.
Han Tong felt slightly relieved. As long as there was no evidence, he would just hold on to death and no one would be able to capture him.
suddenly.
Zhang Chenglin's originally gloomy eyes suddenly brightened.
"That's right!" Zhang Chenglin hurriedly looked at Xu Yi and said loudly: "Sir, although I don't have evidence that Prime Minister Han asked me to frame you, I do have evidence that Prime Minister Han has been embezzling and accepting bribes!"
"Moreover! It's also evidence about disaster relief food!"
As soon as this statement came out, there was an instant uproar.
Countless people stared at Zhang Chenglin and Han Tong as if they wanted to eat people.
Disaster relief, disaster relief, disaster relief, these two words have become a thorn in the hearts of all the people in Chang'an City.
If the victims don’t leave, Chang’an City’s supply of firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and tea will never return to its former glory!
Do you really think that everyone is so rich that they don’t care about the soaring food prices?
"Ha." Xu Yi sneered and said, "You say it's unfounded, but do you have any evidence?"
"Yes, yes," Zhang Chenglin replied hurriedly: "There is a ledger at Xiao's home, which records in detail the evidence of several corruptions and bribes that Xiao knew."
"If the adults need it, they can send someone to go with the child to get it from his home. The child's home is in Qingyi Lane at the back. It can be walked back and forth in two quarters of an hour. If you have a horse, it will be faster."
Zhang Chenglin just finished speaking.
Han Tong sat down on the ground. He never expected that Cheng Lin would hold such a hand.
Seeing the crowd was furious.
Xu Yi looked at the angry people with a solemn face and waved slightly.
At this moment, the person who won the hearts of the people changed from Chang Shuirong to Xu Yi.
When Xu Yi waved his hand slightly, countless people consciously closed their mouths and looked at Xu Yi expectantly.
If Xu Yi lets Han Tong go, after today, he will never be able to take off the hat of an official protecting each other.
But, how could Xu Yi let Han Tong go? He originally wanted to remove Han Tong's thorn.
Originally I just wanted them to be dog-eat-dog, but now they have an unexpected surprise after some persuasion.
How could Xu Yi let go of such a good opportunity.
Xu Yi faced the people and slowly stretched out his fingers and said seriously: "Dear fellow citizens! I take office as Jing Zhaoyin! I will only do three things! Disaster relief! Disaster relief! Still disaster relief!"
Every time Xu Yi said "disaster relief", he stretched out a finger and waved it loudly, "disaster relief" three times! Three fingers! Xu Yi’s determination to provide disaster relief is vividly demonstrated!
Countless pairs of slightly moist eyes stared at Xu Yi who held out three fingers.
The previous misunderstandings and previous slanders turned into deep guilt at this moment.
Looking at countless guilty eyes, Xu Yi said loudly again: "I sincerely invite you all to witness this!"
"Anyone who obstructs disaster relief will be dealt with severely!"
"Any official who dares to put his hand into the disaster relief food! Regardless of rank! All officials will be killed!"
"Anyone who dares to resort to bribery and become the rat in the warehouse will be executed!"
Xu Yi’s words are sonorous and powerful! It was like a sledgehammer hitting the hearts of all the people present.
: "Sixth Prince! I'm sorry! I made a mistake earlier!"
: "Sixth Prince! I'm sorry! I also wrongly blamed you! I'm guilty!"
: "This is what Jing Zhaoyin should do! From today on, Sixth Prince, we will do whatever you say!"
: "Lord Jing Zhaoyin! Kill corrupt officials! Kill corrupt officials!"
Qin Fuping's pupils shrank slightly as he looked at the people who had completely turned to Xu Yi.
My back was already covered with cold sweat.
After today, no one in the entire Chang'an City knows the three things Xu Yi wants to do, and no one knows the three things Xu Yi does!
At that time, the entire people of Guanzhong will become a knife in Xu Yi's hand.
The direction of the blade is unstoppable!
Qin Fuping murmured to himself: "He is going to use the people of Guanzhong as swords to declare war on the wealthy families!"
"However, once the matter is over, he will inevitably be jealous of His Majesty."
"When the time comes, I want to see how you end it."
Xu Yi didn't know what Qin Fuping was thinking, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care.
I want to start a war with the big family! There must be enough power!
People are like water, they can capsize a boat, but they can also carry it!
The power of one common people and two common people is weak! But what about ten, thousand, ten thousand, hundreds of thousands?
As for Emperor Zhengde's suspicion, haha, once the matter is over, before Emperor Zhengde starts to be suspicious, Xu Yi will take the initiative to leave the center of power, or even leave Chang'an City to survive.
At that time, who will care about a prince who is not in the center of power, not even in Chang'an City?
It’s too early to say that now!
The top priority is disaster relief. Only by ending the disaster relief can we truly get out of Zongzheng Temple and out of this vortex of cannibalism.
Xu Yi waved his hand to stop the noise of the people, and then shouted loudly: "Zhao Shou!"
Zhao Shou strode forward and cupped his hands: "Zhao Shou is here!"
"Take Zhang Chenglin to look for evidence of guilt!" Xu Yi ordered in a deep voice!
"Obey the order!" After Zhao Shou finished speaking, he quickly ran into Jingzhao Mansion and pulled out a war horse from inside!
