Chapter 12 Corruption Case (for the Second League of Star Han Fucha
The next day, Zhao Ran calmly discussed the follow-up matters with everyone, accompanied Dongfang Li and Dongfang Jing to inspect the body again, inspected the scene, and recorded the testimonies of relevant people.
Nothing was abnormal - the two of them were no longer focused on Ye Yunxuan himself.
After completion, the case began to be handed over to Xuanyuan Guan. At this point, the case was transferred to Zhao Yunlou to be directly responsible. Dongfang Li confessed to Zhao Yunlou the current predicament of Sanqing Pavilion and Dongji Pavilion, hoping that Zhao Yunlou could come forward to help.
Zhao Yunlou knew the basics of the case. He was also present when Ye Yunxuan jumped from the building, so he acted very responsible and immediately agreed to Dongfang Li's arrangement to decouple the case from the Xiuxian Pavilion. So Dongfang Li and Dongfang Jing left.
Xuanyuan Guan, retreat behind the scenes.
Since it has become a case in the Ten Directions Jungle, it is logical that the direction of recourse - or the way to make up for it - should go straight to the fraud case.
Xue Tengqian shook his head and said to Zhao Ran: "Ye Yunxuan wanted to die to calm the situation and protect his family's wealth. It seems that this calculation is destined to be wrong."
The process of the corruption case is also ready-made. First, the owner of Jinjiang Villa wrote a report material handwritten, revealing that Ye Yunxuan asked for a huge amount of property from him, including the magnificent Jinjiang Villa - this is indeed the truth. After the signing,
This big businessman from the capital suddenly turned into a tainted witness.
He was so excited that he had to escape the disaster, and took the initiative to reveal a ledger he had hidden. The ledger recorded one by one his "property extorted by Ye Yunxuan and others", totaling 18,000 silver.
There are still some other valuables left, and the discounted value is no less than ten thousand taels.
The "others" in the ledger also include Xin Gaogong, Qu Jingzhu, etc., all of whom are from Ye Yunxuan's family.
When Fangzhu Yu got this account book, he couldn't help but be surprised. He secretly thought that these merchants were really evil. They gave gifts and kept the account books. I'm afraid I have to be more careful in the future. Well, I will have to go back.
It would be better to make up for it...
The total amount of silver, jewelry, calligraphy and paintings, rare ancient books and other items is nearly 30,000 taels, plus a beautiful big house by Jinjiang River, which is enough.
Zhao Yunlou issued a search order to Fangtang Master Yu, who immediately took Xuanyuan Guanfangtang to patrol down the mountain. With the cooperation of Lu Tengen, who had already surrounded Ye Yunxuan's house at the foot of the mountain, he began to search and arrest people.
Zhao Ran took the initiative to assume the responsibility of supervision and went together, but unfortunately, there were no clues in Ye Yunxuan's mansion that could tempt him.
Also arrested and ransacked were Xin Gaogong, Qu Jingzhu and seven other Taoist priests from Xuanyuan Temple. For a time, the whole capital was in a state of panic.
Under the instructions of Du Tenghui and Zhao Ran, the "Bagua" magazine dispatched a three-person special reporting team to follow up the entire interview process in order to maximize the impact of Ye Yunxuan's corruption case.
In the latest issue of "Bagua" in October, the ins and outs of the corruption case were clearly reported. This journal was not only distributed to the government and Shifang Jungle, but also sold to the market. The whole Sichuan Province immediately spread the news.
.
The common people all clapped their hands and cheered, imagining the twists and turns and excitement. There were a lot of discussions in the teahouses and alleys. There were all kinds of bizarre opinions, but the mainstream opinions were the same. Xuanyuan Guan, Zhao Jianyuan and Liu Fangzhang, both from Sichuan Province,
Gao Dao understands righteousness deeply and is committed to eradicating evil. Even Gao Dao, who has worked with him for many years, will investigate to the end as long as he is corrupt and corrupt. He is really the best in the world!
An original saying of Zhao Jianyuan recorded in "Bagua" spread throughout the province, and even spread to neighboring provinces and even the whole country with the sale of the periodical, becoming a famous saying that people are full of praise for and recite. This sentence is
:
Don't reach out, otherwise you will be caught!
When the reporting team interviewed various high-level Taoists for their views on the matter, Du Tenghui, the Supervisor of Tianhe Palace, said righteously: "This case fully demonstrates our Taoist sect's continued high-pressure policy on corruption cases. Here,
I also want to remind all the comrades of Song Fan that our Tianhe Palace has no restricted areas, zero tolerance, and a comprehensive suppression attitude towards corruption and corruption. We will deal with them together when they are found, and we will never tolerate it!"
Xue Tengqian, a guest of Xuanyuan Guanzhi, said that this incident has sounded the alarm for every Taoist priest in the guest hall. In view of the characteristics of many welcomes and gifts, and the unavoidable nature of dealing with outsiders, the guest hall has specially formulated "three orders and five orders" for this purpose, eight in total.
, every Taoist priest from the provincial level to the county courtyard has been given clear requirements to be strict in self-discipline and not allowed to accept gifts.
Bai Tengming, the abbot of Long'an Prefecture, published a signed article in "Bagua" titled "Tiger and fly, we will not let go of any of them!".
Song Zhiyuan, the Supervisor of Boryeong Prefecture, specially launched a month-long "Integrity and Public Integrity Warning Education Activity" in the entire Boryeong Prefecture.
"Bagua" also planned two character reports, one is Lu Tengen, the governor of the capital, and the other is Yu Zhiliang, the master of Xuanyuan Temple.
The previous report started with Lu Tengen's assistance in handling the case, focusing on his various deeds during the period when he was in charge of Jingshou Palace and worked hard for the missionary work in the capital.
The latter article reported on Yu Zhiliang's hard work and dedication during the investigation of the case, even though he never entered the house three times.
After being heavily publicized by "Gossip", the corruption case of Ye Yunxuan's small group became the top case in the 26th year of Jiajing. In particular, the scene in which he jumped off a cliff out of fear of crime became the focus of the most heated discussion.
Of course, there are still many people who focus on the report of a certain businessman. Many people are enthusiastically discussing the background of this businessman who was "anonymous" due to personal safety concerns, and asking if there are any behind-the-scenes stories.
, analyzing what his virtues and abilities are, one letter can bring down the entire province, which is really incredible.
So many businessmen began to wonder, should I also file a lawsuit? I was really bullied by so-and-so!
The General Guan paid close attention to such cases. After receiving the report from Xuanyuan Guan, they quickly dispatched an investigation team led by Huan Yunkong, the leader of the left side of the Fangtang Hall, and Xu Tengshan, the high-ranking scholar on the right side of the Sutra Hall, as the deputy.
Traveled day and night to arrive at Xuanyuan Temple.
Logically speaking, Ye Yunxuan's duties are with the whole province, his files are in Zongguan Dianzhuyuan, and he is a Taoist priest directly from Zongguan. The investigation and handling of such cases should be handled by Zongguan Fangtang. But Xuanyuan Guan
It cannot be said that we did anything wrong here. After receiving the report, we first understood the situation. This is a normal procedure. The reason why it seems that the case was reported late is because of Ye Yunxuan's premature death.
When Zhao Yunlou reported the case to the General View, he stated that he originally wanted to have a conversation with Ye Yunxuan first, but he did not expect that he would suddenly choose to jump off the cliff. The subsequent actions of arresting other people involved in the case and searching their homes had to be carried out immediately, otherwise other people involved in the case had to start immediately.
After hearing the news, people, including the Ye clan, will definitely move their property and destroy evidence.
The reasons are very good, so in general, I can only hold my nose and recognize the results.
In fact, more than half a month was enough to solve the case. When Huan Yunkong and Xu Tengshan arrived at Xuanyuan Temple, the case had been clearly laid out in front of them. Zhao Yunlou was very polite in his words, saying that he wanted to invite
The two archdeacons guided the investigation, but in fact they could do no more.
The only thing that made Zhao Ran a little nervous was that they brought a golden elixir monk and two experienced assassins. When these three inspected the already putrid body of Ye Yunxuan, Zhao Ran was by his side, and he kept staring at it.
This Jindan monk surnamed Zhu, until
Fang nodded, recognized the result of suicide, and then breathed a sigh of relief. He had handled it very cleanly in the first place, and after so many days, even a refiner like Dongfang Li could not see anything wrong, let alone a golden elixir.
?His nervousness was just a guilty conscience.
Afterwards, the golden elixir monk suggested that in order to prevent the epidemic, the body should be disposed of as soon as possible, either deeply buried or cremated. So Zhao Ran suggested that Yu Fangzhu be cremated to eliminate the last hidden danger.
A large amount of property was found in the Ye family's residence, including more than 200 large and small gold ingots totaling more than 5,000 taels, two large boxes of silver totaling 18,000 taels, and silver notes from five banks totaling 40,000 taels.
Eight thousand taels, in addition to a large number of calligraphy and paintings, rare books, pearls, jade, corals, rare medicinal materials, precious furs, etc., there are also more than 2,000 acres of land deeds and seven shops!
The above-mentioned valuation is equivalent to nearly 200,000 taels of silver! Nearly 20,000 of them were obtained by blackmailing a certain businessman who was the whistleblower. In addition to his salary, more than 70,000 can be explained from sources such as donations, loans, and store profits, but there are still
The source of one hundred thousand taels cannot be explained.
The remaining seven people, including Xin Gaogong and Qu Jingzhu, also had a total of more than 300,000 taels of property confiscated, half of which they themselves could not even remember where they got it from.
Such a case of corruption has been proven irrefutable and cannot be refuted.
