Su Yonglin frowned, walked over quickly, snatched the stack of papers from Cao Kai's hand, and flipped through them quickly.
Yelu Chenghui and Yelu Yuanyi were shocked and turned their attention to Yelujin. However, seeing the surprised and innocent look on Yelujin's face, he seemed not to realize that this thing would happen here.
What's happening here?
They all looked blankly at Su Yonglin, who was flipping through the papers and his face gradually darkened. There seemed to be thousands of words in his chest that he wanted to say, but in the end, he couldn't say a word.
The meeting hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
After a while, Su Yonglin raised his head.
"Are these all true?"
He looked at Cao Kai.
Cao Kai nodded immediately.
"It's absolutely true, everything is true, there is absolutely no falsehood! I am willing to guarantee it with my life!"
The Shandong Department conducted an emergency search during this period, and indeed did not find much useful information, so they fabricated many lies.
But there is indeed some real evidence in it, and there is indeed some real evidence of corruption in their hands.
True and false are mixed together, true and false, false and true, who knows whether it is true or false?
This is the nuclear bomb they used to fight to the death. Now it seems that it feels like they will die together.
Cao Kai was also filled with grief and anger. Seeing that he was about to be beaten up, he was unwilling to accept it. He was unwilling to become the complete loser while these hateful bastards could continue to stand proudly.
Then let’s all become drowned dogs together and see who beats whom!
So Su Yonglin nodded slowly.
Then he walked step by step in front of Huo Jianbai.
Feeling the powerful pressure coming from the emperor step by step, Huo Jianbai swallowed hard.
"Your nephew is very good. A mere finance minister can easily embezzle tens of millions of dollars in just half a year. Is there such a thing?"
Su Yonglin sneered and pressed a piece of paper on Huo Jianbai's chest.
Huo Jianbai was forced to take a step back. In panic, he quickly took the piece of paper and looked at it. After taking a look, his heart dropped.
His nephew Hogg, who works in the Ministry of Finance, relied on his connections to open up channels for certain officials of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. He used the allocation channel from the Ministry of Finance to the Ministry of Civil Affairs to steal kickbacks, share profits with certain officials of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and everyone made money together. .
He made a lot of money. In more than half a year, he earned tens of millions of dollars in kickbacks, greatly enriching his family property and embarking on the road to prosperity.
congratulations.
The Ministry of Finance is the department headed by Lin Jingchun, and Lin Jingchun has indeed invested a lot of effort in supervision, including setting up an audit department to strictly control all expenditures.
But the power of one person is limited after all, and the Audit Department cannot cover everything. Moreover, the two ministers below are Li Baocheng from Bohai and Cao Kai from Shandong. They are not political vassals. As long as there is something they want to do, it is not that difficult. .
It is indeed difficult to completely regulate.
Su Yonglin had already learned about Huo Jianbai's nephew in Shandong through the secret report Yelujin handed over to the Skynet Army.
He told this to Lin Jingchun, who was counting money and got cramps in his hands. After Lin Jingchun saw it, his original excitement quickly cooled down, and he took the initiative to admit his mistake to Su Yonglin.
"Alang, I made an oversight."
"This matter cannot be completely blamed on you. You are not Zhuge Liang, and you cannot cover everything. I will not blame you too much for this matter, but you also made some oversights. When the time comes, you will be punished."
"I think."
Lin Jingchun took a deep breath: "Alang can punish me however he wants, but please allow me to count all the money! This is too important for the national treasury. With this money, Ming Dynasty will not have to spend any money in the next two or three years." There will be a problem!”
Su Yonglin looked at him looking like a man of wealth and smiled helplessly.
"Count it, I didn't say I would remove you from office. You should continue to serve as Minister, but the unstable factors in the Ministry of Finance must also be eliminated. Finance is the pocket of Ming Dynasty. If the pocket is leaking, it must be repaired. Otherwise, saving money and falling down at the same time, what’s the point?”
When Su Yonglin was in Shandong, he decided to use this incident to clean up the corrupt officialdom of Zhongdu, but he didn't expect that Cao Kai would take the initiative to expose it.
The relationship was so good that Cao Kai handed the knife to him without him taking the initiative.
Come on, have a spoonful of it!
Huo Jianbai was completely unprepared for such a thing. He really didn't know that his nephew had done such a big scandal without telling him.
How dare he?
So he immediately knelt down and apologized to Su Yonglin.
"Your Majesty, I don't know about this! I have never had any contact with Hogg. I have to be responsible for many things. It is impossible to pay attention to a mere Finance Minister Wai Lang! I will not let you take charge of specific affairs of the Ministry of Finance. Please also ask Your Majesty is aware of this!"
What he said was reasonable and reasonable. Huo Jianbai really shouldn't interfere in the internal operations of the Ministry of Finance. If he really knew about this matter, he would have abused his power, failed to report the knowledge, and covered up the crime.
That was no ordinary crime and needed to be dealt with with a heavy blow.
He could only deal with his own problems first, get himself out of danger, and avoid being hit by Su Yonglin's iron fist.
As for what happens next, let’s talk about it next, I can’t even take it into consideration now.
Su Yonglin ignored him and walked to Han Xianling again.
"That civil affairs officer Wai Lang who cooperates with Hoge is a member of your clan. My Han Shilang, what do you usually do? Are you using the treatment you received as a Yin official to make money for your family? Or is it? Earn money from the treasury?”
Han Xianling's eyes widened and turned pale with shock. He gasped for breath and quickly knelt on the ground to plead guilty to Su Yonglin.
"Your Majesty is aware! I don't know about this! I really don't know at all!"
"You are the right minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, don't you know?"
"If I know this! I will definitely kill my relatives out of justice, capture the illegal tribesmen directly, and hand them over to His Majesty for punishment. There is no way I can tolerate and support traitors! Since I have served Your Majesty, I have never dared to slack off. I really have no knowledge of this matter! Your Majesty, please be aware of it! "
Han Xianling hit his head on the ground, as if to express his absolute grief and indignation, and beg Su Yonglin for forgiveness.
However, Su Yonglin was already impatient.
"Enough! One or two of them want me to be aware of it. How long will it take for me to be aware of it?! Is this your problem or mine? When something goes wrong, you don't examine your own responsibilities. Instead, you want me, the emperor, to be aware of it and let me Are you here to take responsibility for you? How dare you?"
Su Yonglin shouted angrily: "All of them are going to jail to await their punishment! Waiting for trial! Waiting for disposal! Someone! Drag them all out!"
Su Yonglin shouted, and a large number of guards entered the meeting hall.
Yelu Chenghui, Huo Jianbai, Cao Kai, Zhou Jiang, Chen Jichang, Han Xianling and other senior officials were all captured and sent to Dali Temple Prison together to await trial by the three divisions.
"Your Majesty, spare your life! Your Majesty! I don't know! I really don't know!"
"Your Majesty! I didn't break the law! I really didn't break the law!"
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"
These high-ranking officials and dignitaries cried and begged Su Yonglin to investigate, and begged Su Yonglin to clear their names and not hold them accountable.
Maybe, maybe they didn't make a mistake.
However, this is not a simple anti-corruption, but an out-and-out revolution.
This destined Su Yonglin to never forgive them.
After they were dragged away, the conference hall suddenly seemed a little empty, and even the words echoed.
"I accidentally caused such a big thing to happen in Zhongdu and Shandong. The entire imperial court almost became a shelter for evil and evil, and all of this actually appeared under my eyes! This is simply a big joke. !”
Su Yonglin shouted angrily at the remaining officials: "It won't work if we don't deal with it seriously, and it won't work if we don't strictly review it. Shandong has been scrutinized by me, and how many dirty things have been found in Zhongdu. There are also a lot of dirty things in Zhongdu now. I I won’t let anyone go!”
The meeting was almost over. Su Yonglin left the meeting hall angrily, and the officials then left.
Seeing that many big-shot figures were taken down by Su Yonglin in a snap, one or two lost their face, and even their lives may not be saved. The officials who did not know the inside story felt sad.
In particular, the Kong family was actually facing the crisis of destruction, which shocked the officials even more.
