On the long street of Qinglongfang, many peddlers and hawkers came and went, and the surrounding shops were also full of people. Seeing a team of armored imperial guards rushing in and stopping in front of Xu's house, the people around also came to watch the excitement!

"I am the captain of the imperial guards, Wu Gang, and I am ordered by the commander-in-chief to obey the orders of His Royal Highness King Xuanyong!"

"General Wu is here just in time!"

Ning Fan smiled and said softly: "I am ordered by the emperor to investigate and punish all corrupt officials in Beijing. Now I have seized more than one million taels of stolen money and stolen goods. I ask the brothers of the imperial guards to help transport these properties to the Jinyiwei Yamen!"

"Hiss!"

Seeing the mountain of boxes in front of Xu's house, Wu Gang's face also showed a look of surprise. He looked at Ning Fan deeply, waved his hand and said: "Brothers, transport all these properties to the Jinyiwei Yamen!"

"Yes!"

The people around heard the conversation between the two, and their faces were dull. Could it be that all these boxes in the courtyard of Xu's house were filled with gold and silver treasures?

As more than a thousand people poured into Xu's house, boxes of silver were loaded onto carriages. More than ten carriages were escorted by more than a thousand imperial guards and were escorted to the Jinyiwei Yamen!

Jia Xu walked silently to Ning Fan and whispered, "My lord, why are you investigating this matter so loudly?"

"Stirring up trouble!"

"Hehe, I'm afraid that my lord has scared more than just the snakes this time!"

Jia Xu looked at Ning Fan meaningfully and rushed to the Jinyiwei Yamen together.

"Go!"

"Go!"

As soon as they arrived at the Yamen, they saw another team of imperial guards riding horses. The leading general turned over and dismounted, strode to Ning Fan and bowed, saying, "Your Highness, I am Wu Changkong, and I will lead three thousand imperial guards under the order of His Majesty to obey your orders!"

"Oh?"

Ning Fan showed a look of surprise on his face, and Jia Xu on the side looked at the imperial guards thoughtfully. You know, this is an important place in the capital!

It is no exaggeration to say that, let alone three thousand elite armors, even the mobilization of more than a thousand private soldiers is enough to shake the capital!

"General Wu, you are just in time!"

"This batch of property can also be saved from being stored in the warehouse!" Ning Fan showed a faint smile on his face, looking at Wu Gang on the side and said: "Captain Wu, unload these gold and silver treasures in front of the Jinyiwei Yamen, open all the boxes for me!"

"This king wants to open the eyes of the people and let other officials take warning!"

"Yes!"

"Come here!"

"Sir!"

"Go, put up a sign for me, hang it in front of the Jinyiwei Yamen, and let the Minister of Personnel Write the amount of corruption on the sign and make it public!"

"Yes!"

Seeing Ning Fan act like this, everyone's expression changed slightly. Wu Changkong stepped forward and advised: "Your Highness, these properties are huge. If they are placed in front of the mansion, will they attract the covetousness of bad people?"

"Yes, Your Highness, it is better to pay them directly into the national treasury!"

"Hehe!"

Ning Fan had a faint smile on his face, and his every move exuded a refined temperament, like a peerless jade gentleman who walked out of poetry and painting.

"With two generals here, who dares to have evil intentions?"

"Could it be possible that this batch of stolen money could be robbed under the noses of the two generals?"

"This..."

Wu Changkong's face was full of bitter smiles, and he looked at the soldiers behind him: "You all heard what His Highness said. If there is any loss of this batch of property, everyone from me to the generals will be punished!"

"Yes!"

Three thousand imperial guards directly formed a formation in front of the Jinyiwei's yamen. Boxes of golden notes and white silver were exposed in the air. In just half an incense stick of time, hundreds of figures stopped in front of the Jinyiwei's yamen.

"Hiss, what a good minister of the Ministry of Revenue!"

"A fourth-rank official actually embezzled so much gold and silver!"

"Good copy, these damn dog officials, instead of serving the people, only know how to plunder the people's fat!"

"I heard that the Jinyiwei is a new organization established by your majesty, and the commander is a notorious big playboy in the capital?"

"You mean... Prince Xuanyong..."

"That's right, this is really a great thing, evil people need evil people to deal with evil people, who can be as evil as the second master Ning, now the second master Ning can turn over a new leaf and serve the people wholeheartedly, it is really fighting violence with violence, your majesty is really wise and virtuous!"

A group of people gathered in groups of three or five, talking excitedly, while the major families in the capital closed their high gates and courtyards!

...

Chen Mansion.

As the residence of the four major families in Beijing, in terms of pomp and decoration, it is not inferior to the current officials, and even more so!

But today, the Chen Mansion was filled with an indescribable weirdness. One after another, figures entered from the back door and walked into the Chen Mansion quietly. In just one hour, seven or eight people came in and out one after another!

In a hall, a middle-aged man in brocade clothes sat at the top, and below him were several figures in plain robes. Each of them exuded a sense of power from being in a high position for a long time!

"Brother Chen, I believe you already know the matter. Mr. Xu is now in the yamen of the Jinyiwei and his life and death is unknown!"

"But Ning Fan, this kid dared to directly confiscate the house, and even His Majesty sent the imperial guards to help!"

"This is not at all concerned about the face of our Chen family!"

"Could it be that His Majesty is ready to take real action against us?"

The speaker was a middle-aged man with a goatee, a thin and tall figure, and a deep look of worry between his eyebrows, but he was very respectful to the middle-aged man sitting above him!

"Yes, Brother Chen, now Mr. Xu's life and death are uncertain, and several other colleagues have been taken into the Yamen by the Jin Yiwei!"

"We must not sit still and wait for death!"

"I suggest that you go directly to the Jinyiwei Yamen to ask for someone. Even if he is a big playboy, he will not dare to refute your face, Brother Chen!"

Listening to everyone's chattering, the middle-aged man known as Brother Chen stood up slowly, with a warm smile on his face, and said softly: "My lords, please don't be anxious!"

"In the final analysis, this Jin Yiwei is just a knife in that man's hand!"

"In my opinion, that person is coming for us this time. He wants to test our reaction!"

"Xu Pengzhan and others have to save him, but we can't be too hasty. After all, if we really make that person anxious, it will do us no good!"

"Besides, it's not just members of my Chen family who are involved this time!"

"Then...according to Brother Chen's opinion, what should be done about this matter?"

"I'm going to meet that old guy Lin Qiushi first. This old fox actually stood on the side of the palace this time, which is rare. Things seem unusual!"

"Go back and wait for my news!"

"yes!"

Everyone came and left quickly. After walking out of the small door, they ran in different directions under the protection of a group of people.

"Go and find out the identities of these people!"

"promise!"

In the corner, several figures rushed out at the same time, followed by figures one after another!
