Chapter 237 Are you teaching this official to do things?
Daming Palace
Emperor Chongping was silent for a moment and said: "According to Yang Qing's intention, the Water Transport Yamen also doesn't know about it?"
Yang Guochang said: "I think the thieves are cunning and the Water Transport Yamen should not know about it."
Emperor Chongping was silent again.
Jia Heng looked at this scene, his eyes moved, and he felt a little emotional in his heart, "If you don't cover up your flaws, it's hard to blame everyone."
No matter what, after Du Jitong, the governor of water transport, took over the water transport, his work was still very effective, because the credit can be seen by comparing the before and after, and this is a credit that no one can erase.
Then, just when Jia Heng thought that Yang Guochang had selected the Governor of Water Transport out, he heard a familiar voice again.
Liang Yuanlang said: "Your Majesty, now that the autumn grain has been delivered to Beijing, all the boats under the Sanhe Chamber of Commerce are controlled by Jia Yunhui. The shopkeepers, clerks, helmsmen, and sailors are all thrown into prison. I am afraid that I cannot recruit so many manpower."
Jia Heng's face paused slightly, and he sneered in his heart.
This Liang Yuan is so smart that he obviously wants to put fire on him.
Sure enough, as soon as this statement came out, the civil and military officials in the court were secretly discussing it because the matter involved Jia Heng.
"Didn't Dongcheng only arrest the leader of the Sanhe Gang? How could he implicate so many merchants?" Wang Shu, the gray-haired minister of Dali Temple, frowned and said.
Other Kedao censors also started talking, all turning their attention to Jia Heng.
Emperor Chongping looked pale, looked at the sudden agitation among the ministers, and said, "Jia Qing, what do you say?"
At this time, Jia Heng came out from the memorial class and said loudly: "I have a personal report on this matter. The Sanhe Gang has been entrenched in the East City for more than ten years, and has many properties under its command. Among them are thieves, thieves, and thieves.
In order to prevent the traitors from leaving the law, they need to be carefully screened. Therefore, I will take them to the Military and Horse Department of the Five Cities for questioning. If they are innocent, they will be released... In addition, the merchant is engaged in the breeding business.
, most of them are side businesses such as car and boat shops, brothels and gambling houses. Even if there is no incident of the Sanhe Gang, I am now asking the Military and Horse Department of the Five Cities to regulate all businesses in the East City, but I don’t know what is involved? In addition, I have already
The executioners of the Yamen of the Five Cities were urgently mobilized, and those who were not among the leaders of the Sanhe Gang were interrogated in advance. If they were indeed innocent, had turned themselves into thieves, and had done nothing illegal, they would be released one after another in the next few days.
"
This self-examination almost eliminated Liang Yuan's criticism.
The criminal department all reported to Deng Jin, who was in charge of the matter, and said loudly: "We think what Jia Yunhui said is right. Previously, the Sanhe Gang in Dongcheng was wreaking havoc, beating and maiming the sons who were taking national examinations. The princes in the palace were furious, just like yesterday.
, and Jia Yunhui punished him and uprooted him, which is exactly what we expected, how can we say that the implications are so wide?"
This was the consensus reached by the court at the beginning. Jia Heng's errands were generally done well, and it was too much to be picky.
After hearing the words, all the ministers agreed one after another.
Emperor Chongping said solemnly: "What the ministers said is true. The Ministry of Punishment and the Jingzhao Mansion should send more manpower to help the military and horse departments of the five cities to identify the culprits. As for water transportation, the Ministry of Husbandry should communicate more with Jia Heng. Let's start with
During the voyage, ships and manpower were mobilized to deliver the autumn grain to Beijing."
Liang Yuan cupped his hands and said yes.
I secretly thought, but I can't shake this lucky guy.
Jia Heng said loudly: "Holy Master, in the past two days, the cleanup of the Sanhe Gang has gradually come to an end. After that, the order in the East City will gradually be restored. I have here to report the details of the arrest and suppression of the Sanhe Gang disciples, so that we can
My lords, I heard this."
Emperor Chongping nodded and said, "Please tell me, sir."
Jia Heng picked up the summary of the situation written by Fan Yi and recited: "In this battle, the four leaders of the Sanhe Gang were wiped out. Four halls of wind, rain, thunder and lightning were wiped out. From the leader Li Jinzhu down, there were 165 leaders of different sizes from deacons and above, and 600 key disciples.
Thirteen people..."
After that, there is a preliminary introduction to the big and small leaders of the Sanhe Gang.
After finishing speaking, all the civil and military officials in the palace were silent for a while.
Some were even shocked that there was such a gang active under their noses in Shenjing City, which made people feel chills behind their backs.
"No wonder the Beijing camp was dispatched to blockade Dongcheng..." Some astute officials suddenly realized.
Emperor Chongping said: "Jia Qing did a good job this time. After this incident, Dongcheng will definitely be wiped out."
Jia Heng said: "This was only possible because of the cooperation of Jinyi Mansion, Jingying, and the Five Cities Military and Horse Division."
Everyone looked at the young man in amazement and thought to themselves, no matter what, the job was done flawlessly and beyond reproach.
However, at this moment, a censor among the officials came out and said: "I would like to report to your Majesty, Chen Duan, the censor of Jiangnan Province, has something unclear, and I would like to ask Jia Yunhui for advice."
Jia Heng's face paused slightly, and he looked at the handsome young censor who came out. He had an impression of this person. He had also helped wave the flag and shout when he went to the front to listen to the drums.
Emperor Chongping looked blank and said, "What does Chen Qing want to ask Jia Heng?"
Chen Duandao: "I heard that the civil servants from the Military and Horse Division of Wucheng and Jinyi Mansion inspected the wealth of the big and small leaders of the Sanhe Gang. Today, it amounts to more than 10 million yuan. I wonder how Mr. Jia will arrange this property? There is another Sanhe gang.
The Gang has been in Dongcheng for more than ten years and has many businesses and businesses under its command. I wonder what Mr. Jia will do with these shops and businesses?"
As soon as these words came out, it was like a big stone dropped on a calm lake, causing a storm.
More than 10 million taels of silver, such a huge figure, was like a whirlwind, impacting the minds of the ministers in the palace.
Even Wu Xun, who was originally on the wall to watch the governor's office of the five armies including the King of Beijing and the King of Nan'an, looked at each other and felt inexplicably shocked.
Yes, they have almost forgotten that such Jianghu gangs and stolen money...
All the officials in the palace were in an uproar, making the scene as noisy as a vegetable market.
Even Li Zan, the Minister of the Ministry of War, who first heard about this, changed his face slightly and turned around to discuss in a low voice with Shi Jie, the minister of the Ministry of War.
Yang Guochang, the chief minister of the cabinet, also looked happy and was discussing with Qi Kun, the Minister of Household Affairs.
Han Huang, the Minister of Civil Service, also had a look of surprise on his elegant face.
It can be said that everyone has their own plans for the wealth of more than 10 million taels of silver.
The two censors who corrected the rituals were naturally unable to stop it.
"More than ten million taels, how is this possible?" someone said.
"How is it impossible? It has been in Dongcheng for more than ten years. It is strange that such a large gang does not have more than 10 million in wealth!"
"How much tax money does the Ministry of Household Affairs have per year? If these ten million taels are deposited into the national treasury..."
At this moment, I heard the sound of a golden fou hitting a jade chime. The clear sound suddenly restored calm to the noisy palace, but it was Dai Quan who led the eunuch to strike the jade chime.
It's just that pairs of eyes were all looking at the young dignitary who was in the palace, staring at him intently.
Wealth worth more than ten million taels of silver is in the hands of this young man!
Emperor Chongping frowned slightly. It was difficult to hide such a large amount of money, but he wanted to hide it for a while. Who would have thought that the news would leak out so quickly.
Facing the gaze of everyone, Jia Heng's expression remained as usual. He raised his eyes and looked at Chen Duan, the censor of Jiangnan Province, and said in a deep voice: "How did Chen Duan, the censor of Jiangnan Province, hear these rumors? He copied and inspected the properties of the big and small leaders of the Sanhe Gang.
How did Chen Yushi know about the secrets of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division and the Jinyi Mansion? Please tell me who leaked the secrets?"
Someone must have leaked the news to Chen Duan in Jinyi Mansion or the Wucheng Army and Horses Division.
As for rumors, even if the punctuation is wrong, they can be refuted, so what does that mean?
Chen Duan would not be so stupid as to say, "This Pei Gongzuo Sima Cao has no regrets." He just hesitated and said: "Jia Yunhui, copying and inspecting the family assets of the leader of the Sanhe Gang, back and forth, there is a lot of movement, so intentional
People who are smart will naturally notice some clues, and the lower officials also faintly heard some rumors."
Jia Heng, however, did not let him pass by. He frowned and asked, "But this is a public secret. How can we let it be publicized before the dust settles? Today, they can leak the amount of the seized property."
It has been spread throughout the city, and tomorrow the strength of our Han army may be leaked to the enemy! Chen Yushi, I have no intention of blaming Chen Yushi, I just want to find out who is spreading the rumor.
Please explain!"
Chen Duan was stared at by Jia Heng's aggressive eyes. He shouted and asked. He was silent for a moment and said: "Jia Yunhui, I also heard it accidentally. It seems that the accountant in Jinyi Mansion mentioned it."
Jia Heng was silent for a moment, raised his hands and looked at Emperor Chongping who was looking up, and said: "I would like to thoroughly investigate the rumors in Jinyi Mansion and leak all the secrets!"
Ministers: "..."
Why are you saying that we need to strictly investigate those who leak the secrets?
Now we are discussing money, don't judge him right or left.
What exactly is the deal with the wealth of more than ten million taels of silver?
Yang Guochang's expression paused, and he thought to himself that if he wanted to put all this money into the national treasury, he might not be satisfied.
Emperor Chongping looked blank, looked at Jia Heng below, and said loudly: "Performed by Yun Qing."
Jia Heng said: "I obey."
Then, during the engineering department, Zhu Yuanmao held an ivory and jade wat, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I think this batch of property should be counted as soon as possible, sold at a discount, and put into the national treasury!"
As Zhu Yuanmao opened his mouth, the censors from the Huke Council and the Imperial Procuratorate also came out to second the proposal.
The trend of dividing pork was created by Ke Daoyanguan.
Jia Heng watched this scene quietly with no expression on his face. All he could do now was stay out of the matter and watch the game between the emperor and his civil and military ministers.
However, Emperor Chongping obviously did not intend to let Jia Heng go. Without waiting for the fate of the six ministers and the cabinet bachelor, he said: "Jia Qing, what do you think?"
As soon as these words came out, all the civil and military officials in the palace turned their eyes towards him.
Jia Heng's face was startled, and he cupped his hands and said: "I think it is too early to talk about the use of this property before it is completely settled."
This is naturally a delaying strategy.
Now that this matter has broken out, the emperor is probably a little caught off guard and cannot express his position directly, so he should suppress it first and wait for the emperor and the cabinet to hold a small meeting to discuss a distribution ratio.
As for the emperor's desire to monopolize this money, it is almost impossible. It is nothing more than a matter of proportion.
Hearing this, Liang Yuan, the Minister of Household Affairs, rolled his eyes, smiled, and said, "Does Jia Yunhui know that everything will be successful if it is forewarned, and it will be ruined if it is not forewarned?"
Clearly seeing an opportunity, he planned to draw Jia Heng to the opposite side of Ke Dao Yan Guan.
"Master Liang, are you teaching me how to do things?" Jia Heng glanced at Liang Yuan coldly, his expression was gloomy, and his tone was indifferent.
Liang Yuan: "..."
Liang Yuan's forehead was filled with evil fire, and his face turned pale. He didn't know why, but he felt this unspeakable contempt.
Jia Heng said neither lightly nor seriously: "Most of the things copied are real estate and gold and silver. I don't know how much they can be sold for. As for the principle of preparing for a rainy day, since I can uproot the Sanhe Gang, I am better than you."
Mr. Liang understands."
Liang Yuan obviously had a grudge against him since he was beaten up by Fa Deng Wen Gu.
Since this is the case, there is no need to save face for him.
He had just won a lottery and was in full swing. It expired and was invalid.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, although all the officials in the palace looked strange, no one felt that something was wrong.
Firstly, when it comes to the argument that Jia Heng is of the same rank as Liang Yuan as being of the third rank, there is nothing to say he is arrogant to Shangguan. Secondly, when it comes to merit, it goes without saying that he is in the limelight.
Being refuted in public, Liang Yuan's face was ashamed and angry. He felt that he could not keep his face straight, and said in a deep voice: "Jia Yunhui, I am just reminding you out of kindness."
"Reminder?" Jia Heng chuckled, and then said in a cold voice: "The Sanhe Gang has been wreaking havoc for more than ten years. They have done many illegal things. The goods and breeding industry they operate has stolen so much tax money from the East City. You, Mr. Liang,
In charge of tax collection at the Ministry of Household Affairs, why didn't you remind the Holy Father at that time? Did you know and say nothing, or did you ignore it? The Sanhe Gang worked and drove for the Cao Grain Guards to help the Cao Transportation Yamen load and unload grain. You, Liang Yuan, were in charge of the warehouse.
Yamen, why don't you remind the cabinet that the Sanhe Gang and others are all traitors? It is precisely because people like you, Mr. Liang, sit back and watch, that the Sanhe Gang is growing stronger and more arrogant by transporting millet and grain for the Yamen.
! Why do I need you to remind me!"
"You...you..." Being scolded condescendingly by Jia Hengji, Liang Yuan's face was as gloomy as water, his eyes were about to burst into flames, his lips moved, but he didn't know how to defend.
All the ministers in the palace were watching from the sidelines with a bit of amusement in their eyes.
These two people had a feud before, and now they are even more on each other's side.
Jia Heng said in a deep voice: "I am impeaching Liang Yuan, the left servant of the Ministry of Household Affairs, for his incompetence. I suspect that he may be a member of the Sanhe Gang. Otherwise, how could such a big gang cover the sky with one hand in Shenjing, let alone in the household?" The Ministry and the Water Transport Yamen are at odds with each other?!"
Either you don’t offend anyone, or you offend and die!
Because Pan Jian was intercepted and killed by a mysterious force, some secrets of collusion with some officials were also hidden.
It is impossible for the Sanhe Gang to bribe only King Qi's family. Officials from all levels of the Ministry of Household's grain transportation must be involved.
Just now, Mr. Yang Ge was helping Du Jitong, the governor of water transportation, to clear things up urgently, and he might have the intention of cutting it off.
"Originally, it's not easy to get involved with the King of Qi, but since the Qi Party is aggressive, don't blame me for chasing after him." Jia Heng thought about this and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I thought that Li Jinzhu and other backbones of the Sanhe Gang were rampaging across the East City. For more than ten years, we have bribed corrupt officials to cover up their evil deeds, and we should investigate them severely!"
Jingzhao Yin Xu Lu was the first to respond, cupping his hands and saying: "I second the proposal."
Afterwards, Yu De, the right censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Imperial Censor, also came out to second the proposal.
As soon as this statement came out, it undoubtedly changed the direction of the discussion in the palace. The ministers in the palace, and some ministers and officials came out one after another from the ranks, shouting for those who supported the proposal, one after another.
At this scene, even the chief minister of the cabinet, Yang Guochang, who was standing in front of him, had a gloomy face and was annoyed. He cursed secretly, Liang Yuan was stupid and Jia Heng was arrogant.
Originally, he had a hard time selecting Du Jitong, the Governor of Water Transport, but now he has to recruit the Ministry of Household Affairs.
Just when Mr. Yang Ge was hesitating whether to leave work to self-identify.
Emperor Chongping's face paused slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "The Sanhe Gang is entrenched in Dongcheng and causing harm, and the people behind it must be severely punished. Xu Deqing, Jia Ziyu, and Yu De, the three of you will do your best to detect this case. You must find out the truth. "
Yang Guochang's old face changed slightly, he swallowed back the words he was about to say, and sighed in his heart.
Xu Lu, Yu De and Jia Heng cupped their hands and said: "I obey the order."
When Emperor Chongping finalized the matter, he added: "The property will be inspected and sold at a discount. It cannot be done in three to five days. Jia Qing is fully responsible for this matter."
He did not directly ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to coordinate, nor did he ask the Ministry of Household Affairs to coordinate. As Jia Heng expected, Emperor Chongping also used a delaying strategy.
Jia Heng said: "My lord, take the order."
When the ministers in the palace heard the words, they didn't hear anything wrong, and the excitement on their faces did not diminish at all.
