Chapter 1435 Xin Zijuan is limitless

Zhang Jin also introduced the entire process in detail when reporting the situation to Lu Song, and Lu Song was noncommittal.

Unexpectedly, Feng Ziying was going to cause such a big thing. Lu Song had to admit that he still underestimated Feng Ziying's courage and determination. He actually dared to risk the disapproval of the world to initiate a major warehouse clearance case, and he did it like this. Thoroughly, leaving no room for error.

Who doesn’t know about the mess in Tongcang? It was simply a quagmire. I don’t know how many people were involved in it, and I don’t know how much money the court spent here.

Just like that, once you make a move, it means touching the interests of countless people. Without a suitable plan, you will instantly make countless enemies. With Feng Ziying's current momentum and reputation, is it necessary to go into this muddy water?

But Feng Ziying did just that, and did it so unhesitatingly that Long Jinwei was fine with it. He even persuaded the emperor to dispatch the Beijing camp, and arrested dozens of people in one go, involving countless people inside and outside the capital.

What surprised Lu Song was that the backlash caused by such a strong dose of medicine was not as strong as he had initially feared. All kinds of criticism and censure would definitely be inevitable, and countless people would use various connections to put pressure and turn things around. , but the cabinet remained silent, and the emperor's attitude was ambiguous. He not only allowed the Beijing camp to assist, but also issued an edict to reprimand the Shuntian Prefecture for being reckless and hasty in handling the case, which affected the stability of the capital. However, it was only a reprimand, and there was no follow-up. , this is also a very bizarre phenomenon.

You must know that in the past, if the emperor showed some inclinations, a few of the censors who were unwilling to be left alone would jump out and launch a campaign. However, this time the Metropolitan Procuratorate actually maintained a strange silence. There were one or two censors. He submitted a letter, but it was just scratching the surface, and even felt like a cover-up. This made Lu Song feel incredible.

Until today, the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Ministry of Punishment, sixteen days after the Tongcang case, suddenly took the same measures and launched a surprise attack on relevant officials and merchants in Jingcang last night, and Lu Song finally understood.

The Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Ministry of Justice have long been "drawn into the water" by Shuntian Mansion and Long Jinwei. Of course, they will not create trouble, and even take the initiative to steal the limelight. The movement in Jingcang is bigger than that of Shuntian Mansion, so they can't avoid it. How could they bear the title of the two big bosses of the Three Law Departments, namely the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Criminal Department, otherwise they would be overpowered by the Shuntian Prefecture?

Intuition told Lu Song that this was by no means a spur-of-the-moment idea, but that Feng Ziying had already arranged and designed the routine. He first moved to clear the warehouse, made a fuss, and won countless glory in one fell swoop, and then handed over the situation in the warehouse to the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Ministry of Punishment. , how could these two families, who were already unable to restrain themselves, withstand such temptation, and not wait to rush forward to get the situation back.

"Well done. Zhao Wenzhao, please continue to let him do it. It's a rare opportunity. Even the emperor is asking me. Of course we, Long Jinwei, can't be absent." Lu Song thought for a long time and then said calmly: "According to We should comply with Tianfu's request and do our work well, and don't be too active in other matters..."

Zhang Jin also understood that Shuntian Mansion was beginning to take the initiative to take a step back. Naturally, there was no need for Long Jinwei to attract too much attention. It was enough to keep a low profile and make money in silence. False fame was not a good thing for Long Jinwei. The baron doesn't need this either.

 After Zhang Jin left, Lu Song couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

He has now learned about Feng Ziying's eclecticism. Cooperating with Long Jinwei is something that many civil servants are unwilling to do. Even if it is a false promise, many civil servants disdain it and think it will damage their own reputation. But Feng Ziying doesn't care. This alone is enough. It makes people think more highly of him.

Now Feng Ziying has taken the initiative to take a step back and cede the limelight to the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Ministry of Punishment. This move is simply exquisite. Which ordinary official is willing to give up such political achievements to others?

The Tongcang case has gained so much, and the clues to Jingcang are in his own hands. It can be said that as long as he continues, the result will be a natural result. Feng Ziying actually gave in at the request, and gave it so completely, handing everything over to the Metropolitan Procuratorate. He Xingbu escaped cleanly and just settled the case of Tongcang.

This kind of willingness is not something ordinary people can achieve. Even Lu Song thought that he was in Feng Ziying's position and at this time, it would be difficult for him to let go so grandly.

She knew that if she continued to work alone, she would face a lot of pressure and covert attacks, but the interests and political achievements were too great to give up, but Feng Ziying was able to take off her robe and give up her position in such a clever and decisive move, and made Ducha The court and the Ministry of Punishment were at the forefront of the storm, and the Shuntian Mansion took advantage of the situation and hid behind it, just absorbing the benefits gained from the Tongcang case.

 strategize and win a thousand-mile victory; lift a heavy task with ease and move with ease. Lu Song could only use these few words to describe Feng Ziying's performance in this case.

The key point is that this guy is only twenty years old. Thinking about his future prospects, Lu Song can't help but want to make a good friend with him. No matter in public or private life, this person is worth making friends with.

Lu Song knew very well that the emperor was in poor health. Although he seemed to be able to maintain his health now, there were unforeseen circumstances and all the banquets in the world would come to an end. As a commander and commander of the Dragon Guard, he might not be able to do it for much longer. As long as the throne was changed. People, the leader of the Dragon Guard must be replaced, and the new emperor must use his own personal power to control the Dragon Guard. This is an eternal rule.

I also have several useless sons and several grandsons. Although they are still young, at this time I met Feng Ziying, an upstart who could obviously work for another thirty or forty years. In the future, he would really become a general and become a prime minister. With this The thin noodles may be valuable.

Thinking of this, Lu Song couldn't help but focus on a few more princes.

 Shou Wang, Fu Wang, Li Wang, Lu Wang, and Gong Wang. Now it seems that Lu Wang is the most favored, but after all, he is a little younger.

A young man of fourteen or fifteen years old, if the emperor's health can last for three to five years, he may still have a chance, but if something unexpected happens in these two years, the possibility of King Lu is small. After all, from the perspective of a civil servant , I still hope that it will be more secure for an adult prince to succeed to the throne.

Of course, from another perspective, the princes in the cabinet may not necessarily like an adult prince. A younger prince may be more conducive to their control of the government. So, Prince Lu or even Prince Gong is more promising?

Lu Song subconsciously shook his head. Ruling the world with the scholar-bureaucrats is really not just a talk. Even the emperor must respect the attitude of the civil servants.

Prince Lu was lively, but Li Tingji said that he behaved frivolously and was not like a human being. It is said that Concubine Mei was so angry that she cried several times in the palace. Later, it was said that Li Tingji refuted the rumor and said that he had never said such words. , Concubine Mei turned from anger to joy, and even sent people to send heavy gifts to Li Tingji's house, but Li Tingji actually accepted them. I heard that it was for Concubine An Mei's heart.

Just from this incident, we can see the influence of the scholar leaders and the important ministers of the cabinet. Even the princes will be trembling when they see them.

After the emperor ascended the throne, he also needed to treat these scholar leaders with respect and courtesy. Miao Changqi, who had long criticized the government, was not allowed to be a minister of the Ministry of Commerce. People still looked down on him and refused because he was not used to the northern climate. As long as He asked for the position of censor of the right capital of the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate, but the emperor had to hold his nose and admit it.

By that time, I'm afraid it will really be like a bustling crowd, with famous scholars chatting and laughing, and no green robes coming and going.

After thinking about it carefully, Lu Song stood up and walked to the door. There was a more thoughtful look in his eyes. Maybe he should adjust his thinking and think about it.

　　******

By the time Feng Ziying returned home, it was already dark.

He deliberately chose to go home at this time, otherwise he didn't know how many people would be guarding the entrances of the alleys on both sides of Fengcheng Hutong. This period of time was really annoying, even if it was the Ministry of Punishment in one breath a few days before the Jingcang case. He captured more than 40 people, exceeding the previous record of more than 30 people captured by Shuntian Mansion. However, there were still countless people gathered around his mansion, just asking to see him.

 After procrastinating for a few days, everyone realized that Feng Ziying seemed to have no intention of going home in the short term and was living in Shuntianfu Yamen, so the number of talents gradually decreased.

Even so, there are still many people who want to try their luck during the day. I heard that the gatekeepers in the mansion are full of posts. Ruixiang and Baoxiang have to go back every day to copy the names of the posts. Feng Ziying wants to know a rough idea.

If you are really capable, you can come directly to the Shuntian Yamen without even posting. In the later period, Feng Ziying also received a lot of posts in the Yamen, but he put them all aside and did not see guests for the time being.

Meeting guests at this time is purely to increase disputes and is unnecessary. Only after the entire case has progressed to a certain level can we say how to deal with these relevant people.

Important criminals will naturally go to the Tribunal for Trial, but by then the main focus will be on Dali Temple.

Now the prison cells of Shuntian Prefecture and Wanping County Government in Daxing are so overcrowded that some less important prisoners who were originally detained in the prison cells have to be released home first in order to free up the prison cells to accommodate this batch of prisoners. Persons involved.

Both Fu Shi and Zhao Wenzhao proposed to Feng Ziying that these people involved in the case need to be eliminated as soon as possible. Some of the less important ones, or those with honest attitudes, can be released on bail to free up their energy to investigate some important cases as soon as possible.

Feng Ziying also agreed to this suggestion and dealt with some people one after another according to the situation, but most of them were still detained in the prison cells.

That's why there was another wave of enthusiasm, everyone hoped to get the person out as soon as possible, otherwise it would be uncomfortable in this prison cell. These people were either officials or businessmen, and they were usually well-off. How could they have experienced such torture? ?
