There are many people in the courtyard of the Yamenhou Residence tonight.
There is Shen Jue, there is Mou Haibin, there are three classes and six rooms, and there are Shan Chen and Fan Chengfang whose mouths are blocked by cloth towels.
Coincidentally, Fan Chengfang and Bai Dianli encountered Shan Chen being arrested just after they came back.
As a brother-in-law, I couldn't help but ask when I met him, but after asking, I almost scared my soul out of my mind.
Mrs. Xu gave a gift to Lord Fu Yin?
She's out of her mind, she's really lighting a lantern in a latrine - looking for shit (to die).
Just when Fan Chengfang wanted to "exterminate relatives for justice," Wen Xi and Cheng Xi stepped forward directly, each in charge, gagging, wringing hands, and taking them to the back yard.
The sound of the conversation between the two people in the room was at a normal volume, but the yard was quiet and no one was moving around, so everyone could hear it clearly.
Especially Shan Chen and Fan Chengfang.
When Mrs. Xu talked about Fan Chengfang's real first wife, Shan Chen's biological sister, who had been raised by Su Hou in the Beihou Mansion in the south of the city for many years, and was brought with him when he returned to the capital this time, everyone's eyes focused on these two people. The expression is indescribable. Probably no one expected that the real situation would be like this.
"... After Gu Qingyan learned that Fan Chengfang had Zhenbei Hou as his backer, he asked him to find someone to sell the excess official salt privately, and they would share the money equally. This was not a trivial matter and could not be done randomly, so Fan Chengfang found someone to do it. I married my husband. After all, they are related by marriage."
The word "in-law" almost made Cheng Xue vomit.
This kind of thing who sends his own daughter-in-law and sister to another man's bed can still be a relative. It's completely shattered to pieces.
Li Hui felt a little nauseous, picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
The ensuing accountability process was particularly smooth. Fan Chengfang took advantage of his position to let Shan Chen "privately sell official salt." Now Shan Chen's wife Xu personally exposed it. Coupled with the arrest by the cabinet, there is no way to defend the case.
They ransacked homes and arrested people, held court trials, and sealed coffins to convict people.
In Liangyan, as long as salt, iron and other cases are involved, the principal culprits and main participants will be sentenced to beheading. No one, such as Fan Chengfang, Shan Chen, the cabinet manager and Xu Li, can escape. The rest, regardless of gender, are all He was exiled for three thousand miles and worked as hard labor.
In view of Xu's "reporting" behavior, the exile from three thousand miles was changed to eight hundred miles, and this fate was completely saved. Exile for three thousand miles seemed to survive, but in fact it was not easy to reach the exile safely. The food was average. , the whole journey was carried out by walking, many people died before they could reach the place, and it was Liao's body that could be wrapped on a straw mat.
The sound of crying on the day of the arrest was endless. The boxes brought out during the search of the house were even more surprising.
There were only five boxes of gold carried out from the Fan family, and there was no way to count the silver, jewelry, etc.
One tael of gold is equivalent to ten taels of silver, and one box contains one hundred taels of gold, which is equivalent to a full five thousand taels of silver.
Even though Li Hui had seen the world of money, he was still shocked when faced with these things.
Xiao Qinglin came over to join in the fun when he had nothing to do. When he saw these things in front of him, the corner of his mouth twitched and said:
"A young fellow student actually embezzled so much silver. It seems that the Northern Territory is really not poor. They have all been embezzled by these grandsons."
Li Hui nodded and agreed.
He ordered the government officials and the newly appointed official Zhang Dian to move all the stolen money and jewelry to the state government warehouse.
According to regulations, after the money is settled, the household will report it to the Ministry of Household Affairs in the capital, 30% will be transferred to the national treasury, and the remaining 70% will be retained in the state capital to benefit the people.
We should be able to get a lot of money, and we will start building roads after the spring plowing of the new year. At least the only official road between the northern border and Liaodong Prefecture must be repaired, so that caravans can travel. Only with caravans can the shops in the city continue to operate, otherwise
Just pointing at the people in the city is not enough.
The Shan family copied more things than the Fan family. In addition, ten boxes of gold were found under the northwest corner of the backyard of the cabinet house.
Each one is engraved with the official seal, and some of them have serial numbers.
After seeing it, Zhang Dianli walked up to Li Hui, bowed his hands and said:
"Sir, this part of the gold is the disaster relief money stripped from the capital in the 10th year of Yongle. At that time, the northern border was hit by floods and locust plagues. The crops were harvested and people were dying. But at that time, the households only received 30% of the silver."
"The remaining 70% are here?"
"No." Zhang Dianli shook his head and counted quickly before replying, "These are only 20%."
Well, the 50% of the gold that has disappeared must be either in the hands of Gu Qingyan or Su Houye. If it is the former, it is fine. Gu Qingyan was arrested and his family property was confiscated, so there is no loss. But if it is in
In Su Houye's hands, it's like a meat bun beating a dog - there is no return. Unless Su Hou is also copied.
Obviously, the court has no intention of touching Lord Su Hou. In this case, he will have a few words with Yongxi later, and it will not be up to him to decide how to arrange it.
He raised his hand and patted Zhang Dianli on the shoulder, as a sign of approval for what he had just done. This man was promoted directly from a household, and he was capable, brainy, and very smart.
I thought that Fan Chengfang and Shan Chen would have to wait until the end of the year to sort things out, but they didn't expect that they would be solved completely before the seal was sealed. It really exceeded expectations.
That's fine, the big trouble is solved, and the remaining small things are not so urgent.
On the afternoon of the 22nd day of the twelfth lunar month, Li Hui hung the newly released duty form on the screen.
"Come on, everyone, let's take a look at which day you will be on duty, and don't forget to come over. Now that we have dealt with everything that needs to be done, and then implement the things on duty, we can live a quiet year in peace. In the evening, we will have dinner in the government office. I
Someone has been sent to the back house to inform you."
When everyone heard this, you looked at me and I looked at you, and they came forward to see the guard in a tacit understanding, without mentioning the matter of eating.
After all, Li Fuyin had been treated to a few token meals from the beginning until now, but they were all outside. Moreover, he ran away after ordering the food and did not stay with them at all.
That sense of alienation is really uncomfortable. But when everyone saw that the thirty-year-old and the first-year junior high school student were both Li Hui, they felt indescribable.
Ever since Fan Chengfang was sent abroad, they had been working with Li Hui. He seemed unkind, but he was capable. He was the one on duty during the Mid-Autumn Festival last time, and now he is still on duty during the New Year.
Upon seeing this, his colleague Shen Jue, who had just taken office, stepped forward and said:
"Master Li, you will be on duty at the Yamen on the Mid-Autumn Festival. This time on New Year's Eve and the first day of the Lunar New Year, it can't be you again. I will be on the first day of the Lunar New Year, and Master Mou will be on duty on New Year's Eve."
"Yes, yes, that's what Lord Shen said, just do it." Mou Haibin responded hurriedly.
Before Li Hui came, it was impossible to seal in the early years. Although he had no work, he still had to sit in the Yamen. Now not only can he seal in advance, but the Yamen will not open until the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. Although Li Hui seems to be unreasonable, but in It was a pleasure to work under him.
Just as he was talking, Bai Shao led people in. Tiandong, Shunxi and Dexi each held a large copper pot in their hands.
With such a posture, Shen Jue naturally couldn't lag behind. He quickly handed the money to the government officials and asked them to buy some jars of good wine...
