Chapter 8 First behead and then play, royal power charter!
Chapter 8: Kill first and tell later, royal power charter!
During the period of Emperor Chongzhen, the chief minister of the cabinet changed frequently. In terms of time, Chen Yangang became the chief minister of the cabinet not long ago.
This person was able to become the chief minister of the cabinet entirely because he understood Chongzhen's temper so well that he climbed up the ranks through flattery.
As for talent, there is almost no one. He is just a rotten scholar. When Li Zicheng attacked Shanxi, Chongzhen wanted to transfer Wu Sangui back from Shanhaiguan to defend, and it was this person who stopped him.
By the time Li Zicheng attacked, Chongzhen had already lost the opportunity and it was too late to transfer Wu Sangui back.
Moreover, this man was also a big corrupt man. After Li Zicheng invaded Beijing, he casually gave 50,000 taels of silver to Liu Zongmin, thus avoiding prison.
However, just four days after he came out, he was captured by Li Zicheng and executed. The property found from his home amounted to one million taels of silver.
hey-hey!
Lao Duzi, I'm going to take advantage of you!
Lin Fan was thinking in his mind and said to the people from the White Tiger Division present: "Next, I will take you to get the money. However, that place is very dangerous. Do you dare to go?"
kindness?
After hearing what Lin Fan said, the Jin Yiwei present looked at each other, and someone said: "Master Lin, where do you want to take us?"
"The residence of Chen Yan, the chief minister of the cabinet and the minister of household affairs!"
Lin Fan said coldly.
hiss!
Everyone present gasped, and some were so frightened that they took a few steps back. This was the chief minister of the cabinet, second only to His Majesty!
If you go to their house, isn't that asking for death?
When Lin Fan saw these people being frightened, he immediately said: "This Chen Yan is corrupt and perverting the law. He has a million taels of silver hidden in his home. He is richer than the imperial court!"
"This man is the worm of our Ming Dynasty. And our brother Jinyiwei can't even get a salary, but he has a million taels of silver and is popular and popular. Are you willing to do this?"
"Who is not a child of his parents? This person is the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs and does not treat me as a human being. How could I, Jin Yiwei, be treated like this?"
"When Emperor Taizu established the Imperial Guard, we were not so offended! We are a sharp knife in His Majesty's hands!"
"Today, everyone will follow me and search the house of Chen Yan and his family. If anything goes wrong, it will be blamed on me, and you will never be affected!"
Lin Fan's impassioned speech made the Jin Yiwei present excited and excited. Someone immediately said: "Master Commander, we are willing to follow you!"
"This Chen Yan embezzled so much money, but he didn't give it to the court. He starved our brothers, and we brothers fought with him!"
"Your Majesty, Commander, has to bear all the consequences alone, so what are we afraid of?
Our Jin Yiwei are not cowards!"
Everyone in Baihu Division said.
Seeing that the atmosphere was getting better, Lin Fan said, "Okay! Everyone, grab your weapons and follow me to Chen Yan's house to get the money!"
"Yes! Sir!"
All the Jin Yiwei shouted loudly.
Half an hour later, Lin Fan led the people from Jinyiwei Baihu Division to the outside of Chen Yan's mansion and looked at the spacious and bright vermilion door. The plaques on the mansion were all gold-plated.
"Damn! This Chen Yan is really rich, every brand is gold-plated!"
Lin Fan cursed secretly in his heart and led his men in.
At this time, Chen Yan was walking birds in the yard, accompanied by more than a dozen beautiful concubines. His life was much more comfortable than that of Chongzhen.
"Sir! What's wrong, my lord, Jin Yiwei broke in!"
A servant came running shouting.
When Chen Yan heard the report from his subordinates, he immediately said angrily: "You bastard! When did the Jin Yiwei dare to raid the home of the chief minister of the cabinet? Gather all the servants and retainers and drive them out!"
"Tell Li Tong and the others that if they accidentally kill a few Jinyi guards, I will keep them safe!"
Li Tong is the most skilled person among the disciples recruited by Chen Yan. It is said that he has studied in Shaolin, Wudang, Kongtong and other major sects, and he is very loyal to Chen Yan.
The servant hurriedly went to deliver the order. After receiving the order, Li Tong and others quickly rushed out with the retainers and servants, blocking Lin Fan and others in the front yard.
"Stop! You Jin Yiwei are so bold. Don't you know this is Master Chen's residence?"
If you break into the home of the chief minister of the cabinet without permission, it would not be an exaggeration for me to kill you!"
"Where's Luo Yangxing?
Is this how he disciplines his men?"
Li Tong held a sharp sword and stood opposite Lin Fan and shouted.
Lin Fan saw that this man had a majestic figure and light steps. He was definitely a master, but he was definitely no match for him.
He said in a deep voice: "Luo Yangxing is now the deputy commander of the Jinyiwei. I am already the commander of the Jinyiwei. I got the news that Chen Yan is corrupt and perverts the law and has a huge amount of money hidden in his home. I will bring people to check it out. Wait.
Get out of the way quickly, or if they start attacking later, your lives may be in danger!"
kindness!
When Li Tong heard this, his eyes widened and he shouted angrily: "Do you have any official documents from the Ministry of Punishment?
Is there any approval document from Dali Temple?
Is there an imperial edict from His Majesty?"
"Huh! Without these, you dare to break into the home of the chief minister of the cabinet. Just wait for my master to report to the court and punish you for the crime of destroying the nine tribes!"
After Lin Fan heard this, he laughed directly. He remembered Yu Huatian's words in the TV series, and said coldly: "Behead first and then show off, as authorized by the imperial power!"
"I, Jin Yiwei, have taken charge of the matters that the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple dare not take care of. Do you have any objections?"
Keng!
Hearing this, the people in the White Tiger Division of the Jinyiwei were all excited. They killed first and then reported. The imperial power granted this, which has always been the biggest privilege of their Jinyiwei!
But as the Donglin Party grows bigger, no one dares to use this power anymore!
So much so that people in the Ministry of Justice now dare to look down on Jin Yiwei. Today, I followed Mr. Lin to inspect the home of the chief minister of the cabinet. It was really cool!
"You! I think you dare!"
Li Tong said coldly.
"Haha! I think if we don't kill a few people today, we won't be able to investigate the case normally, brothers! You have also seen that these people are obstructing my Jin Yiwei's work. Give them to me and take them all down!"
"Anyone who dares to resist will be killed without mercy!"
Lin Fan said coldly.
"Yes! Sir!"
Bai Husi's brother roared and rushed forward.
Li Tong also quickly drew his sword and attacked the Jin Yiwei. Lin Fan saw that not only was Li Tong a master, but there were more than a dozen people beside Li Tong who were also very skilled.
If he didn't take action to capture these people, the Jin Yiwei would probably be killed or wounded. Thinking of this, Lin Fan quickly drew his sword and rushed forward. With a wood-burning sword technique, the Xiuchun sword instantly burst into flames.
When Bai Husi's brother saw it, he opened his mouth in surprise, but Li Tong was shocked. This was a wood-burning sword technique, and he knew it!
This person actually came out of Shaolin and learned seventy-two stunts. This is the last time he is a disciple of Shaolin!
