Chapter 440: Uprooted

Even though An Huaxing broke his head, he couldn't understand why his daughter returned to the boudoir. According to the original "script", shouldn't the daughter crying in Xu Jin's bed at this moment?

"It must be that dead girl was afraid of being embarrassed afterwards, so she ran back to her room secretly. It must be like this. It's outrageous. I won't beat her to death later!" An Huaxing's original wife, Weng, thought hatefully.

An Huaxing and Kong Wenshao were extremely embarrassed at this time, and they were so blushed that they didn't know how to end. The former coughed and said, "Sir, I guess it was the damn servant who made the mistake. I am here to compensate the imperial envoy."

Xu Jin joked: "I am the emperor's order to envoy. Lord An pours dirty water on me, slandering me for tainting your daughter. Isn't it just over if I pay you lightly?"

An Huaxing's face froze and said with a pity: "Then Lord Xu wants me to apologize? I will do whatever I want."

It was because of the fact that the debts in the current world were quickly reported. An Huaxing just now asked Xu Jin to give him an explanation, but now it has turned around.

"Come, take An Huaxing!" With Xu Jin's order, the Jinyiwei rushed over and captured An Huaxing. The latter was stunned, and the An family's family was even more uproar.

Kong Wenshao frowned and said, "Mr. Xu is a bit too much. Lord An is a provincial governor and a second-rank official. Even if you are the imperial envoy, how can you say you can take the person if you take it? What's more, this is just a misunderstanding. Why is it?"

Xu Jin said sternly: "The good scholar Yan Shenggong learned that this official captured An Huaxing not because of slander, but because An Huaxing participated in the stealing and selling official grains and was suspected of murdering the imperial envoy and the capitalist thieves. He hoped that Yan Shenggong would not hinder the imperial envoy from handling the case."

As soon as these words were spoken, An Huaxing felt a bolt from the blue, and his face instantly pale as paper. Kong Wenshao's face also changed drastically. The murder of the imperial envoy and the funding of the rebels were both serious crimes of beheading and raiding the house. If Xu Jin did not have sufficient evidence, he would probably not dare to order the arrest of the second-rank official of the court.

Kong Wenshao's regret was so blue at this time that he had known this. If he had been beaten to death, he would not dare to get involved. When he thought of Xu Jin's fierce measures, Kong Wenshao felt a chill in his heart. The sound of cannon last night was probably the officers and soldiers attacking Daming Lake. Luo Xiang was probably in danger. Dunlun Ru's mother, I was hurt by Eunuch Luo this time.

By the way, Kong Wenshao ran from Qufu to stand on Luo Xiang this time, and he did receive a lot of benefits in private.

"Come here, detain everyone from the An family and wait for the official to clarify the case before making a decision." Xu Jin said in a deep voice.

In an instant, more Jinyiwei rushed in and controlled An Dexing's family in a few seconds. The entire governor's rear yamen was in chaos, and the crying sounded loudly.

This time, Xu Jin brought 300 Jinyiwei and 200 cavalry into the city, and it was more than enough to block the entire General Secretary’s Office. Soon, the commander of the Linqing Guard, Lao Daxing, also brought his army into the city, quickly controlled the four gates, and surrounded the Jinan Prefecture, County Office, Criminal Office, and other important military and political departments.

Immediately afterwards, the Jinyiwei dispatched everywhere, capturing the criminals from house to house. From the left governor An Huaxing to the lower house, the right governor Luo Hongtu, the criminal commissioner Wang Gang, the commander Su Xingchang, the commander-in-chief, and the left-right political participation, the left-right senator, the commander-in-chief, and more than a dozen provincial-level officials were arrested and detained.

At the same time, the island in the middle of Daming Lake was captured, and the news that the eunuch Luo Xiang was captured by the imperial envoy immediately spread. The entire Jinan city was shocked, and it was a magnitude ten earthquake.

The new governor of Shandong Province, Hu Shining, was extremely shocked when he received the report. He immediately came to the door with three yamen runners angrily, and asked Xu Jinan with a gloomy face to ask him how he dared to do whatever he wanted. Xu Jin took out the confession of the prefect of Yanzhou Song Chi, and Hu Shining was silent after reading it.

Xu Jin also told Luo Xiang that he had instructed people to dig the Yellow River embankment to murder the imperial envoy, and the capitalist thieves were in conflict. Governor Hu was even more furious. He had a good relationship with the censor Xiao Huai, and he couldn't help but slapped the table and cursed: "It's outrageous, it's lawless. The government in Shandong is so rotten that it must be severely punished and must not be tolerated."

The recognition and assistance of Governor Hu Shining saved Xu Jin a lot of trouble. The gentry and people in the city were quickly appeased. Until noon, more than 100 civil and military officials were implicated and arrested, and the number was still increasing, including the commander of Jinan Guard Yuan Yi, commander Fang Shizhen and other commanders. In addition, officers in other guards were also arrested.

A great purge that affected the military, political and legal departments was vigorously launched and lasted for nearly half a month. The entire Shandong officialdom was almost pirated, and the prefect alone arrested three people, which was unprecedented.

On the 21st winter month of the 16th year of Zhengde in the Ming Dynasty, this day was destined to be recorded in Shijing. Many years later, the people of Shandong still applauded this, while local officials in Shandong were trembling and walking on thin ice. The official atmosphere in the entire Shandong was cleared, and no one dared to steal a grain of food within a few years.

When Xue Bingxin returned to the inn, the sky was already dark. The thin man Qiu Fu was waiting anxiously. When he met, he asked: "Junior Sister Xue, where did you go all night?"

Xue Bingxin wore a human skin mask, otherwise Qiu Fu would have seen her face pale and her eyelids red and swollen at this time.

"Senior Brother Qiu, did you go to the governor's office to assassinate Xu Jin last night?" Xue Bingxin asked back.

Qiu Fu's eyes dodged a little. He did want to sneak into the governor's yamen last night to assassinate Xu Jin. The figure that Xue Bingxin saw was indeed him. However, this guy walked around the governor's yamen and finally gave up because he was afraid that he would implicate his companions if he failed. Moreover, the brothers on the mountain were waiting for the medicine to help him. So he thought about it over and over again and thought it would be better not to have any trouble, so he returned to the inn.

Seeing Qiu Fu's expression, Xue Bingxin knew that she had read it correctly and couldn't help but cry without tears. She originally wanted to stop Qiu Fu, but she didn't expect that it would be delivered to the door automatically, and she lost her body to Xu Jin's bastard.

"Junior Sister Xue, what's wrong with you?" Although Qiu Fu was so angry, he also noticed that Xue Bingxin was in an abnormal mood.

Xue Bingxin shook her head and said, "I'm fine. I still have to get a few medicines. Please come and catch them. Today we will go out of the city and rush back to the mountain."

Xue Bingxin gave Qiu Fu the note with the name of the medicine and pushed the door into the room. The bag of medicine she grabbed yesterday fell in Xu Jin's room.

Qiu Fu's eyes were hesitant, but he couldn't guess what it was. Finally, he turned around and left the inn with the medicine slip and went to grab the medicine.

Xue Bingxin asked the waiter to bring the bathtub and hot water, took off her clothes one by one, revealing her slender but full body, lifted her slender legs and stepped into the bathtub, and wiped her body hard, as if she wanted to wash away all the smell on her body, but her mind was full of shameful scenes of tangling with someone last night.

"Ah!" Xue Bingxin slapped the water a few times, splashing around, and finally cried on her jade arm.

After a long time, Xue Bingxin stood up and wiped her body after cleaning. Although she was extremely reluctant, she still had to wear the original set of clothes, and she didn't bring her changing clothes.

As soon as Xue Bingxin wiped her hair dry and tied her hair up, Qiu Fu came back after buying the medicine and said with a serious expression: "Junior Sister Xue, the situation is not good. The Ming army blocked the four city gates, and the streets are full of officers and soldiers and Jinyiwei. We are not exposed, right?"

Xue Bingxin couldn't help feeling sad, and she seemed to be stabbed in her heart. The bastard was indeed mean and ruthless. She probably sent someone to arrest her. However, Xue Bingxin and Qiu Fu waited anxiously in the inn until noon, but there were still no officers and soldiers or Jinyiwei running to the inn to search, and they couldn't help but be secretly surprised.

So Xue Bingxin walked out of the room and went to the lobby, asking the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, I heard that all four cities have been blocked, and there are so many officers and soldiers on the street. What happened?"

"Hey, the fire was fired in the middle of the night last night, didn't the guest official hear it?" the shopkeeper called the abacus and showed off.

Last night, Xue Bingniu endured Mr. Xu's human cannons all night. As for the sound of cannons outside the city, he naturally didn't hear them, and frowned and said, "What's wrong?"

"Hey, something big happened. Last night, the imperial envoy ordered someone to attack Daming Lake and captured the eunuch Luo Xiang. Today, he arrested the left and right governors, the criminal magistrate, and the commander of the capital. In short, a large number of high-ranking officials were arrested. Tsk, my biological mother, it's a big deal!"

Qiu Fu couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this, "It's true or false, wouldn't the entire Shandong officialdom be ripped up?"

"It's almost the same. I heard that more than 100 criminals have been arrested. If there are more than a thousand family members, there will be more than a thousand!"

Xue Bingxin was not surprised at all. This was the guy's usual style. As long as there was evidence in hand, he would really dare to take over the entire Shandong officialdom.

Qiu Fu couldn't help but blurted out: "That Xu So... How dare Xu Jin do this?"

The shopkeeper raised his head and glanced at Qiu Fu unhappily and said, "Mr. Xu was ordered to hold heavy troops and the flags granted by the Ministry of War. Why don't you dare? What's more, these corrupt officials should be arrested for selling official grain. They are well arrested. Just like the eunuch Luo Xiang, the evil he has done in Shandong over the years, is obvious to everyone. He has occupied the entire Daming Lake and the nearby fat fields, which has caused many families to be destroyed. It is not an exaggeration to be executed by such a castrated thief even if he is executed by Lingchi."

Xue Bingxin couldn't help feeling better at this time. Finally, the guy was not so cruel and ruthless, and asked, "Shopkeeper, when will the city gate be lifted? We will leave the city today."

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "You're stupid. The imperial envoy arrested corrupt officials. What does it have to do with us ordinary people? You have to leave the city, and the officers and soldiers can let them go at any time."
