First Prince of Ming Dynasty

Tang Shizhong listened to the sound of Zhu Biao's footsteps fading away before he raised his head and stood up. He stood there thinking for a moment, then turned and left. It was easy to kill Wang Shijian, but it was not easy to plant someone else. He had to go back and make a plan.

Zhu Biao took a bowl of decoction after going to the room, and then lay down. Wang Shijian, Zhu Biao, did not intend to let him live. There is no good thing in the world to put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha immediately. Don't get lucky.

However, Wang Shijian played an active role before his death. Zhu Biao would not let him go, but he would spare his family, and even take action to erase his corruption and bribery deeds, making him a righteous and upright official.

Maybe people in later generations will know that there was a great upright official named Wang Shijian during the Hongwu period, and it is not known that he was a model for his life without fear of power. .

It is quite interesting to think about it this way. Although there are some things in this world that the imperial power cannot cover up, they are only a very small part, and the rest can be written at will.

In the current situation, if Li Tongjuan's words are true, then there are countless high-ranking officials in the state government who will be liquidated this time. Such abominable corruption and perversion of the law will undoubtedly be a major blow to the court's face. How does this make the people think of the court?

Therefore, we must save face and give the people an explanation. On the one hand, Zhu Biao personally punished the prince of the Ming Dynasty, and set a good example to let the people know that there are upright officials in the court, and the case of Liu Chun was just exposed. Wang Shijian, the imperial envoy entrusted with the important task, couldn't be more suitable.

It is nothing for an upright official to live, sometimes death is more meaningful. If it is a real upright official like Han Qi and Qian Tang, Zhu Biao may still be a little hesitant, but Wang Shijian, a fake upright official will die sooner or later. of value.

Li Tongpan sent someone to invite him early the next morning, but at this time Zhu Biao's condition relapsed again. You can't force the patient to do things. If something happens to Chen Yunze, he can't afford it.

I had no choice but to invite a famous doctor from Pingliang Prefecture to make a diagnosis, but it was still the same old decoction, but Zhu Biao cheered up and asked Chen Rongyan to take his name card to see Wang Shijian, and Li Tongpan felt relieved and accompanied Chen Rongyan to the past.

In the middle of the night, Tang Shizhong led the imperial physician who was traveling with the government's military guards to come to make a diagnosis. The imperial physician is an imperial physician after all. He didn't feel any panic when he saw that His Royal Highness, who was supposed to return to Beijing with Shengjia, appeared here inexplicably. In the end, it just replaced the herbs in the decoction.

Sure enough, the effect was excellent, and Zhu Biao fell asleep soon after taking it. Tang Shizhong left the imperial doctor here, asked Haosheng to take care of him, and then hurried back before dawn.

In the next few days, Zhu Biao's health gradually recovered, but he still didn't intend to come forward. Although Li Tongpan and others sent precious medicinal materials from time to time, they didn't come to disturb them. Anyway, their goal was achieved.

Since Chen Rongyan visited Wang Shijian with Chen Yunze's famous post, Wang Shijian's attitude has indeed changed a lot, and the batch of food has also been released. Also dragged into the water.

As for Chen Yunze, just don't die in Pingliang Mansion. In the end, he will share more benefits and let him honestly speak well in front of His Royal Highness after returning to Beijing. This is all his usefulness.

One afternoon, Zhu Biao frowned and drank a bitter decoction, even the candied fruit could not cover the bitterness. After the old lady cured Zhu Biao's illness, she still said that she wanted to strengthen the foundation and cultivate the vitality, and gave it to him day and night. Boil nourishing medicine.

Chen Rongyan, who smelled of alcohol, stood in the hall and reported: "Since the change of imperial envoy Wang's attitude, officials from all over Shanxi and Gansu are very happy, especially after knowing the existence of the son, they have sent their confidants to Pingliang Mansion to discuss, and want to further improve the situation. Divide benefits."

If Zhu Biao didn't go out, Chen Rongyan couldn't escape. He had two banquets a day with Zhao Guangsheng, representing Chen Yunze and the Chen family and making friends with people from other interest groups. He didn't know how many brothers he had met in the past few days.

Zhu Biao put down the medicine bowl, took a piece of candied fruit and asked, "Probably everyone has written it down, is there any omission?"

Chen Rongyan bowed his head and said, "Don't worry, my lord, the matter is very important. Every time I come back from drinking, I will write it down in the book immediately, and there will never be any mistakes."

Zhu Biao stood up and moved his body and said: "Tomorrow is the start of the big show, so don't miss anyone in the end."

Last night, they received the news that Han Zheng had let go. They were almost at Pingliang Prefecture, and they could rush to help as long as His Highness had an order.

After spending so much time, I finally found out the details of this group of corrupt officials in Shaanxi and Gansu. I have to say that the number of people involved in the case can be regarded as the largest case in the founding of the country.

With such a large amount, it is difficult for Zhu Biao to clear it all at once, because there is no suitable official who can fill it up immediately, so Zhu Biao plans to clear it in batches. After all, even if Guo Chong, Zhang Fan, Li Jin and others he called are covered in iron, I can't hit many nails.

The first batch were of course officials from the disaster-stricken areas in Shaanxi and Gansu. These people will definitely be sentenced to severe punishments. Beheading is impossible, and beheading is only the starting line. Fortunately, there are enough criminal laws handed down by the ancestors, and Zhu Biao has room for choice. It's quite big.

And this time, except for the baby who was just born and didn't know anything about it, the family members of the rest of the prisoners will never have any forgiveness. All men, women and children will be severely punished, so that the latecomers will know the truth that the people are easy to abuse and the sky is hard to bully!

At this moment, in the mansion where Wang Shijian lived, Wang Shijian asked suspiciously: "Didn't Your Highness ask me to cooperate with them for the time being? Why do you suddenly want me to forcefully break into the guardhouse tomorrow?"

Tang Shizhong frowned: "Imperial Envoy Wang, when did you question His Highness's order!"

Wang Shijian hurriedly replied: "The general misunderstood, how dare I question His Highness's order, I just have some doubts, and I will definitely obey orders tomorrow."

Only then did Tang Shizhong look soothed, seeing that Wang Shijian was a little nervous, he said: "The Marquis of Dongping will be back soon after dispatching troops from Xi'an, and His Highness is going to collect the nets. Naturally, he wants to see how many big fish are still in the water."

Hearing this, Wang Shijian breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he was finally going to pass this hurdle. Recently, he was trembling like walking on thin ice. He was afraid that His Highness would be dissatisfied if he did not do well or made mistakes. In the end, he would be liquidated with him.

But according to the current situation, he may not be liquidated, but may be promoted to a noble. This is not the so-called negligence. Wang Shijian is really not the kind of short-lived injustice. "
