The news that the Wen family was confiscated soon spread throughout the capital.
In teahouses, taverns, streets and alleys, people were whispering and talking about it.
After all, this was a third-rank official, and it was unexpected that he was arrested like this.
"Those people cheated in the imperial examination. I don't know how many people were harmed. If it weren't for the Sixth Prince, I'm afraid I don't know how many people would have studied in vain."
One person sighed. For ordinary people, the imperial examination is the only chance to change their fate. Although the probability is not high, it is still an opportunity.
I didn't expect that the court was actually such a bad environment before.
"Your Majesty is wise and powerful. I heard that the Sixth Prince is already a prince. He will definitely give us students an explanation." Another scholar said.
"I heard that the Wen family was stubborn and even broke the arrest warrant. They really deserved it."
"I heard that those people who took action were your highness's followers. They are so impressive. I will join them in the future and kill those treacherous officials and corrupt officials."
...
But this is just the beginning. None of the officials on the list were left alive. All of them were seized by the Jinyiwei.
Lu Bing and other veteran Jinyiwei are quite skilled in their business. After all, this is their profession.
Even if some of these families have things and some people are hidden deeper, such as in secret compartments or secret rooms, they were all found by the Jinyiwei.
At this moment, Lu Bing looked through the list, solved a family, and drew a big cross on the name with a red pen.
Of course, those officials and their families in the capital can't escape.
But some officials still have ancestral homes. They are officials from other places, not in the capital.
Since your highness's request is not to leave anyone alive, even if it's a little far, but the person needs to be caught.
Lu Bing divided the list into two piles, one of which was mainly for the official families in the west.
The other was for the families in the east, and then he called the two envoys Qinglong and Xuanwu.
"Qinglong, these are officials in the east of Dajin, Xuanwu, these are officials in the west of Dajin.
You two take the Jinyiwei to take them down, and if there are any harbouring people, they will be punished with the same crime as these criminals!
Whether it is a martial arts family or other families, those who dare to block the way will be taken down together!
The local government and Zhenwu Division will fully cooperate with your actions, so there is no need to worry."
"My lord, I obey your command." Qinglong and Xuanwu took the list, and then they were ready to assign their thousand households to be responsible for those areas.
Of course, among these big and small family disciples, it is inevitable that some of them are close to some martial arts forces and are their disciples.
But the Jinyiwei took action this time to let everyone know the consequences of offending the Jinyiwei.
No matter what martial arts force it is, it is the same.

Ji Changan was drinking tea and fishing in the pond.
Yuchi Gong next to him also picked up the fishing rod, but he didn't seem to like it very much.
And today seems to be lucky, there are often big fish biting the hook.
The affairs of the Qin Palace are handled by Zhao Gao.
As for the intelligence of various forces, because the three Confucianists have not yet obtained positions in the court, they are now living in the Qin Palace and temporarily help themselves as a staff.
There are some news that need to be notified to me after sorting out the net.
There is also Jingwei, everything is arranged, and it feels good to be a hands-off shopkeeper.
"Master, this is the information submitted by Commander Lu, please take a look at it."
Lan Jian stepped forward lightly and handed over a letter respectfully with both hands.
All this information was carefully selected by Jingwei to avoid disturbing Ji Changan with trivial matters.
"Lu Bing?" Ji Chang'an nodded with satisfaction. These people were reliable. Then he took the letter and read it.
After a while, Ji Chang'an put down the letter and called Zhao Gao: "Zhao Gao, you let Luowang cooperate with Jinyiwei and don't let the families of these criminals escape.
In addition, we have obtained evidence from those people's homes that they colluded with the Su family and disrupted the imperial examinations of Dajin.
In this way, the evidence of both parties matches.
Pass on the king's order to hold a public trial in the Ministry of Justice tomorrow."
"Yes, Your Highness, I will arrange it now." Zhao Gao nodded, hurriedly, and quickly conveyed Ji Chang'an's order.
And Yuchi Gong, who was dressed in casual clothes, saw the pond and shouted repeatedly: "Your Highness, there are fish, there are fish."
--------------------------
At the Fan Wang Mansion. The atmosphere was depressing.
Liu Shuyu, the Minister of Revenue, paced back and forth, and the heads of the Cui and Yang families sat on both sides with gloomy expressions.
The second prince sat in the main seat with a frown on his face.
Looking at Liu Shuyu walking around, he finally couldn't help but speak: "Master LiuPeople, can you please stop walking? It's giving me a headache. "
Liu Shuyu stopped at this point, but his face was still sad: "Your Highness King Fan, what do you say we should do now?
His Highness King Qin has land immortals in his hands, and now his guards have set off a bloody storm in the capital.
A large number of officials are terrified, and I don't know how many people have died because of this incident.
You know, although our Ministry of Revenue has not been openly corrupt.
But everyone knows that the Ministry of Rites is so close to you, Your Highness, and now something has happened to the Ministry of Rites.
Those officials surrendered to the prince just to avoid being liquidated by the Sixth Prince, if you, Your Highness, can't protect them.
Maybe it will be our turn next time. With the methods of His Highness King Qin, we are in trouble.
These officials are fence-sitters, and they will surrender to us because of fear.
But when they are afraid, they may also surrender to His Highness King Qin to save their lives.
If we do nothing, then we lose. "
"Your Highness Prince Qin is really cruel. He didn't leave any of the entire Wen family alive." Cui Qinghe also saw the means of His Highness Prince Qin.
If they had looked down on Ji Changan in the past, they would have thought that he was just a young boy.
But the appearance of the land immortals and the confiscation of the property of those officials were done so beautifully that people couldn't help but be afraid.
"He is killing the chicken to scare the monkey. If you want to go against His Highness the Sixth Prince, you will have this end.
Land immortals, with land immortals as a trump card, even if you do something excessive.
The officials of the court didn't dare to say anything. "The head of the Yang family shook his head.
"I don't know where the sixth prince found so many strong men, why can't I find them. "The second prince clenched his fist and said angrily.
If he had so many powerful people to help him, he would not be in such a state.
Thinking of this, the second prince suddenly looked at the Cui and Yang families:
"But now, there is no way for me and the sixth prince to settle down peacefully.
No one thought that the genius who disappeared because of an assassination would become the biggest opponent of this king.
If you, the Yang and Cui families, do not want to end up like the Su family, you must fully support this king.
When this king ascends the throne, I will not treat you unfairly. "
The heads of the Cui and Yang families looked at each other and knew that there was no way out. They said quickly:
"Of course, with the style of the sixth prince, he will not let us go after he ascends the throne.
If there is any change, our two families will fully support the prince.
Even if we have to ask the ancestors of the family to come out, we must suppress the arrogance of His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin. "
Other small families can turn around easily, but the Cui and Yang families have no way out.
If they retreat, they will definitely not be able to maintain their current status, and they may even be confiscated, which is absolutely unacceptable to them.
However, when the two of them met the second prince, they did not say anything else.
This is actually just empty talk. After all, their two families still have a last resort, which is to join the martial arts forces. This is their last way out.
As long as the ancestors are there, there is a way out.
Just when the four were thinking about countermeasures fiercely, an urgent report came from outside.
"Your Highness, someone from the Ministry of Justice said that His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin will hold a public trial of the imperial examination fraud case tomorrow and invites Your Highness to go."
