Chapter six hundred and sixty third when the palace won

The memorial is not too long, but the content is shocking. The degree of corruption in Fujian is chilling, and its methods are outrageous.

After Liao Huanzhi finished reading all the thoughts, he did not realize that his sweat had wet his back, and his heart was as uneasy as if he was overturning.

The hall was silent, and no one spoke, and the officials who had collapsed on the ground were no longer looking, their heads were covered with sweat, and their bodies were shaking like quails.

"Come!" Zhu Yicheng broke the tranquility. With his cold voice, the figure of the commander of the Jinyiwei Zhang Ran appeared outside the hall gate, and brought more than a dozen Jinyiwei to salute Zhu Yicheng first.

Zhu Yicheng didn't say anything, raised his hand and pointed directly downward. Zhang Ran responded and took the Jinyiwei directly to capture people in the court. At this moment, the collapsed people saw the Jinyiwei walking towards them like a wolf and a tiger. They were immediately scared to death. Some of them were surrendered, some were scared to death on the spot, some tried to beg Zhu Yicheng for mercy and confess their guilt in exchange for a favor, and some even those who shouted for injustice and struggled...

Regardless of which, Zhang Ran ignored it at all. Zhu Yicheng had already given him the arrest list. He only followed the emperor's orders and arrested whoever the emperor asked him to arrest. As for the injustice or the crime, he deserved it. Then he didn't care about his affairs.

The Jinyiwei brought them all, and it was a piece of cake for them to catch people. They were in groups of two people, one went forward and reached for his hand to hold it, and the other directly stuffed the other into the mouth with a numb core, then took out the torture instrument and put it on, and then dragged it out like a chicken.

Everyone stared at this scene in a daze, their minds were blank, and even the censors who liked to show off the limelight in the court on weekdays did not dare to speak. Because everyone knew that this matter was too big today. Judging from Zhu Yicheng's performance, this matter might become a huge storm after the restoration of the Ming Dynasty. In this case, accused Zhu Yicheng of treating the court ministers in this way, which was like a brain in his mind. Not to mention that these people deserved the crime, and among the people arrested were not only the left minister of the Ministry of Justice, the right minister of the Ministry of Personnel, the two doctors of the Ministry of Revenue, and even officials of the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Works, and even the censors of the Dali Temple and the Censorate.

Almost all these people were involved in the court. Who would dare to speak in this situation? If Zhu Yicheng or other ministers considered him accomplices, they would not be unjustly killed? Fortunately, the chief officials of each department were not involved in it, which was at least a blessing in disgrace.

Soon, all these people were taken down, and Zhang Ran did not lose them much. After doing these things, he saluted Zhu Yicheng and left quickly. In a blink of an eye, except for the few people in the hall, it seemed that the scene that just happened was like a dream.

"The Censorate, Dali Temple, the Ministry of Justice, and the Three Laws jointly tried this case, and the Jinyiwei assisted the handling..." Zhu Yicheng said at this time. He glanced at Liao Huanzhi and others who were still lying on the ground, and thought for a while and added: "Liu Huanzhi of the Military Operations Department led various military aircraft to follow up on the case, and the progress of the case will be reported to me every day."

As soon as this sentence was spoken, the stone pressing on Liao Huanzhi in his heart finally landed. He looked up at Zhu Yicheng with great gratitude, and then he took the order loudly. The heads of the three courts also responded, and promised that the case would be found out.

After explaining this, Zhu Yicheng didn't say much. He waved his sleeves and turned around and left. The little yellow door beside him quickly shouted and retreated. Everyone immediately continued to lie down and sent Zhu Yicheng away. It was not until Zhu Yicheng left for almost a minute that the more courageous people slowly stood up.

Today's court meeting was earth-shaking, scaring everyone, and the incident in Fujian was like a thunderclap, causing the court to be dizzy.

When he stood up, Liao Huanzhi felt his legs were weak and he felt it was difficult to take steps. Seeing him like this, Dong Dashan hurried forward to support him, and at the same time he whispered to ask what would be next.

"Let's go back to the Military Affairs Office first." Liao Huanzhi said softly, then turned his eyes to the people who had not left. Many people looked at them, including Jiang Jin, the Minister of Works.

Liao Huanzhi knew that these people were going to ask him about the next arrangements or inquire about some information, but at this time he didn't know more than others. Moreover, although Zhu Yicheng released him a code, as the chief military minister, he still didn't know that something big happened in the place and was already guilty. At the moment, such a big case, Liao Huanzhi would not easily contact others with such a big deal.

Half an hour later, the five military ministers returned to the military office and blocked the left and right. The five sat in the room where they usually worked. Look at me, and I look at you, and the atmosphere was extremely solemn for a moment.

"Zhongtang, you drink a little water first." Shi Yizhi personally poured a glass of water for Liao Huanzhi, and then said, "Everyone, I know about today's affairs. Last night, I received the order from the emperor to enter the palace overnight. Only then did I learn that something big happened in Fujian. Due to the special circumstances, I was unable to communicate with you in time. I am here to compensate you for the Zhongtang..."

Liao Huanzhi waved his hand and said, "No need to mention this matter. No one would have thought of the temporary summoning of the emperor. Moreover, you and I cannot grasp such a big thing. Shi Zhongtang, I am determined."

Liao Huanzhi's last sentence naturally refers to Shi Yizhi's soft reminder when he was in court. Fortunately, Shi Yizhi reminded him, otherwise Liao Huanzhi would have been passive today, and perhaps the result would not be like this now.

"Shame..."

"But... I don't understand why the emperor summoned you into the palace?" Liao Huanzhi asked suddenly, and his eyes looked at Shi Yi.

Shi Yizhi smiled bitterly. He knew that he could not hide it from Liao Huanzhi after all. He immediately calmly accepted Zhu Yicheng's report from the Jinyiwei and decided to investigate the situation in Fujian. Then he specially asked Chen Wuxian to travel to Fujian, and at the same time asked him to send an operator to accompany him to verify what happened in Fujian.

Because Zhu Yicheng's account of this arrangement, Shi Yizhi was kept confidential for the time being, so Shi Yizhi naturally didn't say anything. Moreover, from the beginning, both Zhu Yicheng and Shi Yizhi just thought that the incident in Fujian was just some officials who embezzled and accepted bribes, but unexpectedly, this investigation actually broke the world and found a major case that shocked the world.

After Shi Yizhi explained the reason, everyone understood what was going on. Liao Huanzhi nodded slightly, and he could understand the cause and effect.

"These bastards are too brave! It's not an exaggeration to cut them into pieces!" Wang Dong couldn't help but curse on the spot. As the highest commander of the navy, he had no involvement in this case. It can be said that he was the most unrelated person among the few people in the Military Affairs Office.

However, Wang Dong was also a little scared. You should know that the cause of the case was due to the sea trade, and the navy in Xiamen was his subordinates. Fortunately, he had strict requirements on his subordinates on weekdays. In addition, the Shanghai Army and the local government were just two lines, and there was no intersection. The Maritime Bureau also assisted, so he did not get caught in it.

If the Navy falls into this case, it will not be a trivial matter. Wang Dong cursed and wondered whether he should start to pursuing the Navy within the Navy just in case.
