The general's wife through time

Chapter 138: A nest of rebellious officials and traitors

Under the orders of Emperor Jingkang, Duan Jingchen personally supervised the construction. The Guoxue project progressed rapidly, and all the foundations were leveled within a month. At the same time, clues about the arms case were springing up in front of Emperor Jingkang every day.

Duan Jingchen ran so hard to the palace that he almost broke his leg.

"Your Majesty, evidence of the crime hidden by the Pei family was discovered today at the old site of the Qin Family School. The evidence proves that it was the raw materials for making weapons provided by Lord Yushi Ma to Pei Jian, the latest blueprints stolen with the help of Lord Cao from the Ministry of Industry, and the stolen materials from the Ministry of War. Mr. Wu helped arrange the secret transportation channel, Mr. An..."

Emperor Jingkang asked Duan Jingchen with a sullen face, "Did Xue Tang give these to you?"

He said, why did this boy take the initiative to supervise the establishment of Chinese studies? It turned out to be this. Using this credit to compete with Mo Bai, this kid will indeed be slightly better than Mo Bai in this round.

Duan Jingchen shook his head firmly, "No! It was found in a secret room underground."

He really didn't know that this was the purpose of Xue Tang dragging him into the gang. He was once again dragged into the trap by Xue Tang, and this time he was a little happy.

This time, he enjoyed the sweet dates Xue Tang gave him.

It feels so good to work together to do something together!

Emperor Jingkang: "Humph!"

He is the only one who believes in you.

Others framed you, but you used your own position to rationalize all the evidence obtained by extraordinary means. Xue Tang, your method is a bit clever.

However, the old dog Shangguan Xun must be indispensable here, because Shangguan Xun showed these evidences to him before.

Feeling a majestic gaze coming towards him, Shangguan Xun stepped forward and said calmly, irritating Emperor Jingkang, "Your Majesty, after secret investigation, I have determined that the cotton used by Pei Jian to make thunder bombs , it was obtained by colluding with people from the Ministry of Revenue."

OK, even the household department is not clean!
Emperor Jingkang closed his eyes, suppressed his anger, and squeezed out one word from between his teeth: "Speak!"

The Thunder Fire Bomb is a unique weapon in Dajing's army and his pride. The secret recipe for making it was given to him by General Mu.

It stands to reason that even if the formula is leaked, others will not be able to make thunder and fire bombs with the same power, because outsiders do not have such good cotton.

Nitrocellulose is used to make thunder bombs, and the specially supplied cotton has always been supervised by the Ministry of Household Affairs. From planting and picking to production, transportation and storage to registration and use, Xia Mingze of the Ministry of Household Affairs is notoriously timid, so it is impossible Who secretly colludes with others to do treacherous things?

Even if he knew that someone was colluding with Jiangyang thieves to blow up the Taotie Building with thunder and fire bombs, Emperor Jingkang did not doubt the transfer department. Unexpectedly, today I was slapped in the face by the department I felt most comfortable with.

"It's Yuan Weiming. He conspired with people from the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry to modify and increase the losses in making thunder and fire bombs. The so-called waste produced by excessive losses was almost all good materials. They smuggled these so-called wastes out and made them It became Pei Jian's raw material. It was precisely because Lord Si discovered a clue that he suggested that Yuan Weiming be spared his life for the time being. Letting him accompany Wei Shengmiao in the prison was just an excuse, and he was waiting for the evidence to be confirmed. Take legal action together.”

If Shangguan Xun hadn't suddenly mentioned it, Emperor Jingkang would have forgotten Yuan Weiming, and he looked coldly at Si Wei beside Shangguan Xun.

Look, it was all done by your good uncle from the Si family!

Yuan Weiming is no longer the uncle of the Si family! Si Wei was indifferent, as if he didn't see the anger in Emperor Jingkang's eyes at all. He first bowed his hands and bowed, then stepped forward to present a pile of evidence, and said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty, this is the period during which I have been Please take a look at what was found by the Sixth Investigation Department!"

The people involved in the entire arms smuggling case have been almost exposed, and the evidence is conclusive.

The evidence in the Jingkang Emperor Long case could easily dispose of 70% of all civil and military officials.

It’s like raising a bunch of rebellious officials and traitors!
Emperor Jingkang was so angry that he threw the tea bowl and said, "I'll chop them all down!"

Kunning Palace.

Pei Jian heard the news and knew that Emperor Jingkang had discovered the evidence. He did not dare to delay for a moment and immediately ran with Xie to find the Queen Mother.

Mrs. Xie's face was filled with worry and her eyes were red: "Queen Mother, why don't you send someone to check the old site of the clan school? If there is any evidence that has not been found, destroy it quickly. We really don't know what Mrs. Pei will do. If we hide those, people will die and we will be hurt.”

The Queen Mother sat on the phoenix chair and glanced at her lightly, "It's already too late to send someone over at this time." "It's because I don't manage the family strictly, so the Queen Mother has to worry about it. But I really didn't I thought my aunt would have those things in her hands." Pei Jian's face turned earthy. Xie is the princess who was personally granted the title of Princess Pei by the Empress Dowager. However, he still has to worry about his elders and inferiority. Even if his aunt is dead, he cannot call her Pei.

He came to find a solution to the Queen Mother, and he also came to plead guilty and test the Queen Mother's attitude. After all, it was the Pei family who leaked the secret. If he aroused the Queen Mother's suspicion, without the protection of the Queen Mother, he would definitely be in danger.

The Queen Mother said solemnly: "Why are you panicking? It is precisely because there are too many people involved that it is safe. As the saying goes, the law does not punish everyone. If the emperor still wants to have peace in the court, he will not dare to do anything to you. What's more, you are all We are working for the Ai family. If something happens, the Ai family will definitely not sit idly by and ignore it. Everyone, go back! The Ai family is exhausted."

Royal study room.

Si Wei lowered his eyes and said seriously: "Your Majesty, please calm down. We should be lucky to have found the evidence so quickly. With the evidence, we can not only severely punish the guilty officials, but also inspect the mineral mountain villa given to them by the late emperor." , keep those mineral veins to build more good weapons for Dajing’s soldiers. Dajing’s army will definitely be invincible, and Dajing’s future is promising. However, we cannot rush to do it, we must find an opportunity to let those guilty officials first The people behind the scenes have no time to separate themselves, so His Majesty can slowly make arrangements..."

Duan Jingchen couldn't help but look sideways.

Listen, what is said is better than what is sung. After passing through your mouth, all the big bad things become gratifying. No wonder the emperor is partial to you. If he had such a mouth, he would be able to control it.

Eunuch Li glanced at Duan Jingchen without leaving any trace.

Looking at you like that, I know you are bragging silently again. His Majesty has long said that if you had used the time you spent bragging to study, you would have been able to do everything in your power.

After listening to Si Wei's words, Emperor Jingkang was indeed a lot more angry. He frowned and sighed heavily.

Si Wei was right. If so many officials were dealt with at once, the court would be paralyzed. But if he didn't deal with it or dealt with it slowly, he would not only be unwilling but also worried. Who knows what would happen to those rebellious ministers once this matter was revealed to the world? The thieves will do anything, so they must first divert their attention and wait until the time is right before taking action. And once they take action, they must control the fate of the guilty officials in the residence to prevent them from turning over.

Just as he was about to say let him think about it, Shangguan Xun presented another booklet, "Please take a look at it. Someone put this on my desk last night. It is an anonymous report letter. Although I have not seen it, The person who sent the letter, I believe that the content above is true."

Emperor Jingkang looked over coldly, gave Shangguan Xun a slap in the face, and said in a deep voice: "Next time, can you learn from Si Wei and say everything you want to say? In addition, your Jingzhao Mansion has recently been Has the courtyard wall been demolished? First, someone sneaked into the prison and killed Mr. Pei, and now someone has entered your study. You are not ashamed. Instead of quickly introspecting yourself, you are actually proud that you put something like this with unknown origins. Give it to me..."

As soon as the book was opened, Emperor Jingkang, who was cursing at first, turned green.

The dense text on it told him: Dajing and Dongyi have been fighting for so many years without deciding the outcome. The reason for the stalemate is because Li Hui, the eastern guard, has colluded with Dongyi and is also smuggling arms...

Emperor Jingkang was so angry that smoke was rising from his head, his eyes were red, and veins bulged in the hand holding the memorial.

What the hell, how many good people are there in the Dajing court? ! ! !
He glanced at the people standing in the hall. Apart from these few who were relieved, there was also Qin Shuanyuan, the northern guard. However, there were always people who wanted to kill Qin Shuanyuan secretly.

No wonder Master Mochou didn’t want to divine the fate of the country before. Why the hell do we still need divination now? Even before Dajing was overthrown, God would pity him.

He was about to throw the memorial down to vent his anger and grief, but he accidentally saw the seal on the back of the memorial.

Qin Shuanyuan!
He suddenly raised his eyes and stared at Shangguan Xun, so excited that he couldn't speak.

Shangguan Xun shook his head slightly, signaled Emperor Jingkang to be quiet, and said: "Your Majesty, this is an opportunity. Your Majesty can first investigate Li Hui, the guard in the east. Li Hui is the nephew of the Queen Mother, so they will be in a hurry for the time being. For a while, Mr. Si and I just took the opportunity to deal with those criminals..."

"Okay, hahaha, okay!"

Emperor Jingkang was overjoyed.

His generals all had time to mind their own business, which meant that not only was they victorious, but the war situation in South Vietnam must also be particularly gratifying!
He asked Shangguan Xun unwillingly, "Have you really not seen the person who sent the secret message?"

Shangguan Xun said firmly: "No!"

After finishing speaking, he did not forget to add, "I will clean up the Jingzhao Mansion today when I get back. In the future, not a single mosquito will be able to fly in."

It was indeed an accident that Pei was killed. He had already asked people to take precautions. To say so was just to give Emperor Jingkang a step up.

Emperor Jingkang coughed lightly and said, "There is no need to be too strict. We still need to leave a hole for people to petition!"
