Metropolitan Procuratorate.
Lian Zining looked at the memorial in his hand, his face was very ugly, and he asked the censor Zhang Chang: "Is this serious?"
Zhang Chang solemnly said: "The official has seen it with his own eyes, how can it be false?"
Lian Zining looked down at the memorial and said solemnly: "Don't submit the memorial in advance. I will make a decision after discussing with Zuodu Yushi."
Zhang Chang said in a deep voice: "Three days. If there is no news after three days, I will make a final report to the emperor."
Lian Zining knew the temperaments and temperaments of the newcomers in the Imperial Procuratorate, especially those who came out of the Imperial College. They were even more persistent and would not betray others easily. Fortunately, these people knew the importance of things and were not like the stupid young people who always strive to do the best in everything. Stab directly in the face.
Dai Deyi looked at the mirror and saw that he had gray hair on his temples.
It's not easy to be in charge of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Wherever there is a problem with an official, the Metropolitan Procuratorate will always be held responsible. A person who is accused of poor supervision and neglect of duty cannot be evaded no matter what.
Fortunately, in the past two years, there have been no major corruption problems in the officialdom, and the lower-level officials are doing their best, especially a group of graduates from the Imperial College who have entered the prefecture and county level. With their excellent quality and powerful skills, many Local people's livelihood has greatly improved.
?????????????????? Officials govern the Qingming Festival, which is a great blessing for the country!
Dai Deyi is eager to assist Mingjun and create a peaceful and prosperous age. Isn't now the best time?
Lian Zining walked over in a hurry, and when he got closer, he handed over the memorial and said in a low voice: "Something difficult happened."
Seeing Lian Zining's solemn face, Dai Deyi's heart sank. He picked up the memorial and read it, with the corner of his mouth trembling slightly: "Do the Navy Commander's Office and the Ministry of War know about it?"
Lian Zining shook his head: "Probably not yet."
Dai Deyi put down the memorial and didn't speak for a long time.
The content of the memorial is very simple:
Prince Lanshan’s True Crime Three:
First, they forcibly bought farmland, but the people named Zhao refused and were beaten to death.
Second, they raped women.
Third, they coerced local officials.
Dai Deyi had a headache. If ordinary officials had these problems, the Metropolitan Procuratorate would never be lenient, but this person is Lanshan Bo Wangzhen!
Earl, it’s nothing. The Ming Dynasty has so many of them now, so the emperor must be very happy to cut off a few. But the problem is that Wang Zhen is a subordinate of Zheng He's navy. He is a high-ranking general who followed Zheng He on his voyage and came back alive!
In Luo Guanying's fleet, Wang Zhen was the captain of the Dafu ship. After the Great Fortune Ship was destroyed, he was the first person under Luo Guanying and Zhao Shiyu to form the Four Treasure Ship Generals together with Su An!
The officers and men of Zheng He Navy are honored by the world. They are the pride of the Navy and the heroes in the hearts of countless people in the Ming Dynasty!
The seeds brought by the navy have been scattered and planted in different areas. Although it is not yet certain whether the seeds are high-yield, it is certain that the seeds are alive. The sweet potatoes in the Huang family farm outside the city are already in pieces and can be harvested next month.
Daldry did not dare to act rashly against such a person who was likely to have great achievements for a long time, but Wang Zhen actually beat people to death and openly raped civilian girls. This is simply lawless!
If this person is not dealt with, Dai Deyi will not be able to live up to his responsibilities!
Lian Zining looked at the hesitant Dai Deyi and said solemnly: "If we report the matter directly, I'm afraid there will be no room for change, and the entire navy may be offended."
Dai Deyi's mouth was full of bitterness.
In the past, it didn't matter if he offended the navy, even if he offended the navy commander.
But now, after Zheng He's navy returned, a large number of marquises, counts, commanders, etc. appeared. These people had meritorious deeds and dereliction of duty. Behind them stood the entire navy.
They have experienced life and death together, and have traveled through endless lands together. They are united with each other, and have the mentality that everyone will be prosperous and everyone will suffer.
If you touch Wang Zhen, you may offend the entire navy.
Dai Deyi frowned, thought for a long time, and said: "Send the memorial to the Navy Commander's Office and ask Li Jian for his idea. Tell him that this matter cannot be hidden, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate will report it tomorrow."
Lian Zining knew that the incident had already happened and it was impossible to cover it up. Just because local officials did not dare to offend Wang Zhen did not mean that the Metropolitan Procuratorate did not.
Navy Commander's Mansion.
After Li Jian received the news, he overturned the table angrily and cursed Wang Zhen as a bastard.
Chen Hui looked at Li Jian without saying anything.
You can flip the table over and smash the cup as you please, but the problem still needs to be solved.
Soon after, Zheng He and Zhu Neng also received the news and hurriedly entered the Navy Commander's Mansion.
Zhu Neng was furious: "Is this serious?"
Li Jian lamented: "This is news from the Metropolitan Procuratorate."
??????????????????Zhu Neng was silent.
Over the years, under the management of Dai Deyi, Lian Zining and others, the Metropolitan Procuratorate has rarely heard of the incident. What's more, Wang Zhen is the earl. If there is no evidence, the Metropolitan Procuratorate will not send the news.
"Zheng Guogong?"
Li Jian looked at Zheng He.
Zheng He did not hesitate and said simply: "We have sacrificed our lives to gain merit and glory, so we need to use our lives to protect our merits and glory. Lan Shanbo is guilty and should be reported to the emperor according to the facts and punished according to the law. What is the need Scrupulous?"
Li Jian looked at Zheng He, who had a clear distinction between public and private affairs and was selfless, and then turned his attention to Zhu Neng: "Does Marquis Lan Hai have anything to add?"
Zhu Neng clenched his fist, slammed it on the table, and gritted his teeth and said: "Wang Zhen, you idiot! I have nothing to say. Report the truth and deal with it how you should! People from the navy, let alone plead for him! It is your own fault." live!"
Li Jian and Chen Hui could only sigh.
After countless ups and downs and risks, he finally came back alive and became an earl. The emperor did not treat anyone badly. You said that it is good to live a good life, enjoy glory and wealth, and live in peace for the rest of your life, isn't it good?
Why did people change when they returned to Wenrou Township? They dared to bully the people and coerce local officials relying on their military exploits and titles?
Looking for death!
Li Jian did not take any action. The Metropolitan Procuratorate sent the news, just to save face from the Navy Commander's Office. Since the Navy Commander's Office has no intention of saving Wang Zhen, it can only let nature take its course.
You can't go to the emperor and say, the Metropolitan Procuratorate will tell us how Wang Zhen is. This will offend the Metropolitan Procuratorate to death, and no one will do that.
Dai Deyi and Lian Zining did not wait for the news from the Navy Commander's Office and understood its attitude. Early the next morning, the memorial from Yushi Zhang Chang was sent to Wuying Hall.
Zhu Yunwen, who was originally in a good mood, could hardly believe his eyes when he saw Zhang Chang's memorial, but looking at each of the evil deeds, it was clear that they were all committed by a count. He was simply a bully!
"Pass it to Liu Changge!"
Zhu Yunwen was so angry that after Liu Changge entered the palace, he smashed the memorial on the ground without waiting for Liu Changge to salute and shouted: "I'll give you three days to find out whether this is true or not!"
Liu Changge hadn't seen Zhu Yunwen so angry for a long time. He quickly picked up the memorial and looked at it. He breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out to be the real matter of Prince Lanshan. As long as there was no problem within the security bureau, it was not a big deal. …
"Wait!"
Zhu Yunwen stopped Liu Changge, who was about to leave, and ordered: "Investigate all princes and princes, especially those newly appointed to the Navy. Anyone who acts recklessly, acts arbitrarily, preys on the people, and bullies the local area will be reported!"
Liu Changge took the order.
Zhu Yunwen was still angry.
Heroic officials have always been prone to arrogance. Wasn't it the same for Zhu Liangzu during the founding of the People's Republic of China? As a result, he was whipped to death by Lao Zhu! These naval officers, like counts, are suddenly enjoying their glory, and the darkness and dangers of the past have become a thing of the past. They only want to enjoy themselves, and even trample the laws of the country just to enjoy them!
This is not possible!
I give you the title because your merits are worthy of it!
But if you can't even tell the difference between good and evil, then don't blame the emperor for being ruthless!
At this moment, Zhu Yunwen understood Zhu Yuanzhang somewhat.
During the founding period, there were so many meritorious military generals and important founding ministers. They made great achievements, had high prestige in the military, and had great influence. They stood at the highest position under the emperors of the Ming Dynasty.
I have the merit, what about grabbing some land?
I'm a big brother. I'm going through life and death. How about robbing a few women?
I'm wearing a lot of weapons, how about killing a few people?
Your Majesty, I have made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty, and I am not comparable to these ordinary people!
People with this kind of mentality did not only exist during the founding of the People's Republic of China. After every reward, a group of people would appear.
Wang Zhen is an outstanding naval general and one of the first generals to arrive in South America. He has good control skills and can command a fleet!
But unfortunately, this person has fallen!
Zhu Yunwen really hoped that this was false, but three days later, the Security Bureau's investigation results completely chilled Zhu Yunwen.
The Security Bureau conducted an in-depth investigation in Jianyang and found that Wang Zhen not only beat people to death, but also bullied the villagers, raising more than thirty idle people as his godson, and flaunting his power from time to time, taking advantage of the people!
These godsons did not do anything serious, and followed Wang Zhen to do evil. When they met a young and beautiful woman, they even dared to steal it openly!
The local magistrate had written several impeachment memorials, but Wang Zhen got the news first, led people to break into the government office, directly tore up the impeachment memorials, and threatened the officials!
The level of lawlessness is simply shocking!
Zhu Yunwen found it hard to believe that Zheng He's navy had been back for more than four months, and now it was only mid-July, or March, and a man had actually grown to such an extent!
As more and more of Wang Zhen's true story was exposed, more and more officials were impeached. The courtiers had the same attitude: severely punish Lan Shanbo!
Zheng He and Zhu Neng lowered their hands and did not dare to speak.
Zhu Yunwen looked at the two people and said angrily: "Tell me, what makes an upright man turn into a bandit bully running rampant in the place!"
Zheng He was very sad. Wang Zhen was once a brother who shared life and death, but now...
Zhu Neng did not intercede for Wang Zhen. At this time, intercession was not only useless, but would only make him angry. He also did not add insult to injury. They were all his own people and could not get away with it.
When Zhu Yunwen saw that the two of them were silent, he became even more angry and ordered: "Catch Wang Zhen. I want to ask him personally why it turned out like this!"
Liu Changge took the order and left.
Zheng He and Zhu Neng looked at each other, feeling a pressure on each other, with regret and sadness in their eyes. This time, Wang Zhen may not be able to die happily!
