Zheng Zibi, who was a Jinshi in the twelfth year of Zhengde's reign, has been a member of the School of Physics for thirteen years. He was a big troll in history, but this time he finally got the big deal.
As the censor of Youqiandu, he was transferred by Wang Yuan to inspect the local salt affairs in Sichuan.
The Sichuan Salt Transportation Department was found to have been involved in a conspiracy. Officials from the Salt Transportation Department colluded with wealthy businessmen to privately sell large quantities of Sichuan well salt and smuggled it to Yang, the chieftain of Bozhou. Yang then sold the private salt to tea-horse merchants and shipped it to Guizhou.
The details of the case are mind-numbing. Sichuan Dusi and Anchasi are also involved, and the chieftain of the Yang family in Bozhou is even more difficult to deal with. The person who pulls the strings is actually a member of Yang Tinghe's tribe. If Guizhou is traced, some chieftains in Guizhou will also be involved, Chama
It is also inconvenient for merchants to deal with it, and a slight mess will affect the supply of war horses.
Zheng Zibi didn't care about so many officials and impeached fifty-seven officials in one go. He also impeached the chief minister Yang Tinghe for condoning smuggling among his tribe.
An old man ran to the capital and cried and begged: "Jiefu, Zheng Zibi relies on Wang Yuan's power and doesn't take the Yang family seriously at all. You can't ignore it!"
"You are confused!" Yang Tinghe was so angry that he wanted to hit someone.
Unfortunately, he still couldn't fight. The old man in front of him was named Yang Hui. Although he was only over fifty years old, he was Yang Tinghe's uncle in terms of seniority.
This time's Jinshi list made Yang Tinghe feel bad, and his family was inexplicably found to be selling illegal salt. Do you want to piss him off to death?
There are loopholes in the new salt law promulgated by Wang Yuan. With the prestige of the Yang family in Sichuan, they can appoint their confidants to apply for official salt shop licenses and sell official salt safely and legally. But the Yang family is not satisfied yet. With the help of Yang Tinghe's official
He colluded with officials from the Sichuan Salt Transportation Department to obtain a large amount of official salt and sell it as private salt.
This approach can not only evade taxes, but also continue to buy and sell short. The Yang family does not need to touch the physical goods at all. After opening up the joints, they directly ask the shippers to pick up the goods from the Salt Transportation Department, earning a large price difference.
What made Yang Tinghe even more speechless was that the censors sent by Wang Yuan had already found out the problem, but the clan members still dared to take matters into their own hands and colluded with the Sichuan Prosecution Bureau to suppress the case.
Suppress it, Wang Erlang wants to do something, even the three central law departments can't suppress it!
Yang Hui said: "This guy surnamed Zheng didn't know anything. He arrested a group of minions and confiscated some cars and boats. We gave him enough face to make political achievements, but he still held on to him. I left.
Before Sichuan, he persuaded the governor of Sichuan and actually surrounded the Prince of Shu's palace. The King of Shu asked me to come to the capital..."
"Wait a minute," Yang Tinghe said in surprise, "The King of Shu is also involved?"
Yang Hui said: "The king of Shu must have a share. Not only the king of Shu has a share, but also the Sichuan Dusi and all the guards in Sichuan."
"I...you...poof!"
Yang Tinghe couldn't lift it up in one breath, so he vomited blood and fell into coma. At least he didn't die of anger on the spot.
Everyone in the Yang house panicked and called in doctors to rescue him. Yang Tinghe finally woke up leisurely. He pointed at his uncle and said: "This matter should be handled according to the law. No more obstruction should be made to handle the case. You must clear your relationship with the King of Shu!"
Yang Tinghe really wanted to die, so he just wanted to stir up private affairs, but it actually involved the vassal king, chieftain and guard.
If Wang Yuan persists in colluding with the vassal king, colluding with the army, and colluding with the chieftain, these three major crimes will be suppressed, and Yang Tinghe will be impeached and resigned no matter how shameless he is.
Yang Hui was also panicked and asked: "How can we deal with it according to the law?"
Yang Tinghe said: "Let them arrest whoever they want. Anyway, this matter has nothing to do with the Yang family!"
Yang Hui said: "The man surnamed Zheng arrested a group of private salt dealers and seized the stolen goods. The Yang family has been exposed."
Yang Tinghe thought carefully: "The governor has no right to bypass the prosecutor's office and directly try the illegal salt case. The confession in their hand is useless. Find a branch of the Yang family and ask him to surrender to the prosecutor. This matter will be solved. Still.
Yes, spit out some of the stolen money from the smuggled salt trade, and if you bite him to death, he will be a branch of the Yang family who is guilty!"
There are many legal loopholes that can be exploited in the "Da Ming Law" regarding the sale of illegal salt.
The Yang family could have asked the prosecutor to hold the case without trial, and send a clan member to surrender, and the person who surrendered would be exempted. Even if the matter got serious, as long as he did not resist arrest, he would only have a hundred canes and three years in prison. Someone would protect him.
You can't kill someone in a hundred battles, and you can redeem your life with a fine and a three-year sentence.
After giving these instructions, Yang Tinghe suddenly said: "No, you have already arrived from Sichuan to Beijing. Why hasn't Zheng Zibi's impeachment memorial arrived yet?"
"Isn't there any impeachment?" Yang Hui asked, "Is it because he can't afford to offend the Yang family, so he's just showing off."
I can't afford to mess with you, so I'll kill that bastard first and then show him off, so as not to be stopped halfway, and I want to make the matter a solid case and meritorious service!
Yang Tinghe struggled to get up: "Bring me a pen and ink quickly. I want to write a memorial to impeach myself and resign."
Zheng Zibi is really crazy. The most difficult thing about this case is not that it involves Yang Tinghe or the King of Shu, but that the officers and soldiers of Sichuan and the chieftain of Bozhou are involved. If the investigation is too deep and you are not careful, it will lead to a mutiny.
, and even led to the rebellion of the chieftains of Bozhou.
This guy didn't even say hello to Wang Yuan, but just joined forces with the Sichuan governor to investigate the case, without fear of forcing the chieftain to rebel.
Wang Tingxiang, the governor of Sichuan, one of the four great masters of Qi science, and the teacher of the first Jinshi in the second class of Jinke, is also a fucking lunatic, and he actually plays exciting games with Zheng Zibi!
Soon, the impeachment memorials of Wang Tingxiang and Zheng Zibi were finally sent to Beijing. The chief minister, the king of Shu, and the Yang family of Bozhou were impeached again and again.
The election for the academy had just ended, and this year's Shujishi had not yet started enrolling in school. The military news about the rebellion of Yang Xiang, the chieftain of Bozhou, came.
The Minister of Recruitment of the Cabinet went to Wenyuan Pavilion, and Wang Yuan was also summoned to urgently discuss the evaluation matter.
—————
Mao Ji said: "First decide whether to appease or fight. If you want to appease, immediately recall Wang Tingxiang (Wang Tingxiang) and send an experienced person to be the governor of Sichuan. If you want to use force to quell the situation, Wang Ziheng is also a man who knows how to fight, so let him lead him immediately.
Fight the rebellion!"
Yang Yiqing said speechlessly: "In the case of smuggling salt, various guards in Sichuan are also involved. I'm afraid that Sichuan officers and soldiers will not obey Wang Ziheng's dispatch."
"This Wang Ziheng is really capable of causing trouble!" Jiang Mian said angrily, "The Guangxi rebellion was just put down last year. The soldiers and horses in several southwest provinces are exhausted. The local food and grass are definitely not enough. How can we put down the Bozhou rebellion?"
Zheng Zibi was a student of Wang Yuan, and he strictly performed his duties as a censor. No matter how big the trouble was, Wang Yuan had to help him. Wang Yuan smiled and said: "As the governor of Sichuan, it is also his duty to handle salt affairs."
How can there be any mistake in enforcing the law impartially? What Jiang Ge Lao said was wrong, Wang Ziheng was not wrong, but the Yang family of Bozhou was wrong."
Yang Yiqing said: "No matter who is right or wrong today, we must first discuss how to quell the Bozhou rebellion!"
Wang Qiong said: "Hit and caress at the same time, and act with the camera."
Mao Ji asked: "Should the governor of Sichuan be replaced? If not, I am afraid that the Yang family in Bozhou will not accept the recruitment."
Wang Xian, the Secretary of the Ministry of War, said: "Let Pan Xugu (Pan Jian) go. He has served as the Zuo Buzheng of Sichuan and the governor of Sichuan. He is relatively familiar with the Yang family of Bozhou."
Yang Tinghe finally spoke: "Pan Xigu doesn't know how to fight."
Wang Yuan said: "The chaos in Bozhou was caused by Wang Ziheng. Just dig the hole yourself and bury it yourself, and let Wang Ziheng handle it."
"Can he handle it?" Mao Ji asked back.
Wang Yuan explained: "Zheng Heng and Mr. Zheng'an (Luo Qinshun) are both known as the masters of qi studies in the world. Mr. Zheng'an highly respected Wang Ziheng and commented that Wang Ziheng was very resourceful. Since he was not afraid of forcing the chieftain of Bozhou to rebel, he felt natural
We have long been calculating. I estimate that the rebellion in Bozhou has been put down before the military order from the imperial court arrives. What we should discuss is whether to calm down the trouble in Bozhou, or take the opportunity to divide Bozhou and transfer part of Bozhou's land to Guizhou.
To avoid another rebellion by the Yang family in Bozhou."
Jiang Mian sneered: "Wang Shangshu, the Bozhou Rebellion has not yet been settled, so you are thinking about what will happen after it is settled."
Wang Yuan asked back: "Shouldn't the temple look far ahead?"
"No matter how far you plan, it's not your kind of plan!" Jiang Mian said angrily.
Yang Tinghe made the final decision and said, "Okay, just follow what Wang Shangshu said and let Wang Ziheng go to quell the chaos."
Because of the Sichuan salt smuggling case, Yang Tinghe had a big pot hanging above his head, fearing that it would fall at any time, and he couldn't wait to dump it to Wang Yuan.
This rebellion is very nonsense. As soon as the order from the Ministry of War arrived in Huguang, the Bozhou Rebellion was over.
Wang Tingxiang, the governor of Sichuan, beheaded Yang Xiang, the chieftain of Bozhou, without spending a single soldier. In addition, Wang Tingxiang went to the imperial court and requested that Bozhou be divided, and Huangping, Wengshui (Weng'an), Yuqing and Sanxuanfusi were all placed under
It is under the jurisdiction of the Pingyue Division of Guizhou, and Pingyue Division was promoted to the Pingyue Military and Civilian Office.
It's exactly the same as what Wang Yuan said. How can there be so many people in the world who know things like God?
When Wang Tingxiang's impeachment memorial came to Beijing, he wrote a private letter to Wang Yuan, clearly explaining all his plans.
Yang Xiang, the chieftain of Bozhou, was very unlucky. His head disappeared inexplicably. Guess who killed him?
