Chapter 1316: Zhao Xianqiu's mansion
Seeing Yang Huairen nodding slightly, Tong Guan felt that he should have known these things for a long time, and had already acquiesced to the existence of this kind of atmosphere, so he continued, "If you calculate it by such a standard, then there are really no corrupt officials in the Jiangnan local government."
The common people are not strange to see it, and the businessmen are accustomed to it, even if there are really people who are not used to reporting to the imperial court, the imperial court is afraid that it will be difficult, and it will not be able to dismiss all the local officials in Jiangnan, so at most it is just a few reprimands.
If you want to say that it is really possible to become a huge greed, only our three divisions of the yamen. Lord, our family doesn't dare to lie in front of you, our family usually receives a lot of benefits from silk merchants and cloth merchants.
But if you want to say something very out of the ordinary, or a lot of money, don't be afraid of your jokes, our family is not so bold.
The city and the transfer department are definitely more popular than our weaving bureau, and we will say that we have heard that the Cen father-in-law of the city ship division must have received a lot of safe money every year, but if you want to say that you want to ask for bribes and accept high bribes, you have not heard of it.
On the side of the Caoyun Yamen, it seems to be the same, but ......" Tong Guan paused deliberately and raised his eyes to look at Yang Huairen.
Yang Huairen said, "But it doesn't hurt to say it." ”
Tong Guan only then mustered up his courage, "Our family's Yulu is numbered, according to the establishment of Zhao Xianqiu and our family at the same level, the Yulu is the same, but Zhao Xianqiu's life is much more extravagant."
The day before yesterday, the prince didn't go to Zhao Xianqiu's mansion, uh...... In fact, I can't see anything when I go, but Zhao Xianqiu's house in Yangzhou is not the one behind Caoyun Yamen.
Over there in Jiangdu County, Yangzhou, Zhao Xianqiu also has a big mansion, our family was invited to go to it once, that house, that is called a grandeur, and the palace in Tokyo City will be dwarfed. ”
Yang Huairen became interested, "Oh? And what else is there? ”
Tong Guan nodded hurriedly, "Our family went to Zhao Xianqiu's luxurious mansion, from the door to the middle hall, it took a cup of tea, and the house in the back house, just by looking at it, you can't see the edge."
Lord Wang, you must know that Zhao Xianqiu's house was not bought by him, but bought a large piece of land, and then asked someone to build a new one, and it is said that it took three years to build it.
Our family didn't go to the backyard, but I heard that Zhao Xianqiu found someone to dig a pool as big as a dozen acres for more than a year, saying that it was for fish appreciation.
Scold! If the pond is so big, can you still catch fish? Boating in the pool is fine. This style is not even in the palace! ”
Yang Huairen was a little surprised, it seems that this Zhao Xianqiu is very good at enjoying it, he has built such a big house, and there is a small lake in the house, which is much more luxurious than the mansion in Yang Huairen's house.
Seeing that Yang Huairen began to show a satisfied smile on his face, Tong Guan became more and more energetic, and more and more fierce news broke out.
"Lord Wang, there is one more thing, there is a reason why Zhao Xianqiu's house is so big, I heard that ...... He raised a harem in his family's big mansion. ”
"Harem? What do you mean? Yang Huairen was a little stunned.
Tong Guan smiled evilly, "Yes, it's the harem, during the years when he was on an errand in Jiangnan, Zhao Xianqiu bought back more than a dozen or twenty famous Qinglou girls from all over Jiangnan for him to enjoy in the house." ”
Yang Huairen laughed out loud, "What are you talking about?" Zhao Xianqiu bought more than 20 Qinglou women to raise, is it for enjoyment? He...... Haha, can you enjoy that? ”
Tong Guan was a little embarrassed, "That, Lord Wang, there are some things you don't know, when we entered the palace, naturally we couldn't be human, but the eunuch is also a man, but it's just not complete."
Sometimes, there are feelings, but I also feel empty and lonely, and I ......"
Yang Huairen couldn't listen to it anymore, in case his brain made up some pictures of spicy eyes ruining the three views, I was afraid that he wouldn't be able to eat for three days, so he hurriedly interrupted Tong Guan, "Let's get down to business!" ”
"Oh," Tong Guan sneered, blushing, "although I can't be a pedestrian, I also hope that someone can accompany me, even if it's just to talk."
Zhao Xianqiu got more than 20 Qinglou women to raise, and he accompanied him to relieve his boredom, but these more than 20 Qinglou women are not ordinary Qinglou women, but Oiran in Qinglou everywhere, all of them are as beautiful as flowers.
In addition to the usual use to relieve boredom, our family once heard that many big officials in Jiangnan, as well as celebrities and wealthy people, are also the guests of his family, as for what they are doing in the mansion, the prince should understand it after thinking about it. ”
Yang Huairen was surprised, it turned out that Zhao Xianqiu controlled the powerful officials and influential wealthy businessmen in Jiangnan in this way, and then gradually established his huge power group.
Now there is evidence, although Tong Guan is also a guess, but all the rumors cannot be groundless.
But with this alone, it seems that Zhao Xianqiu can't be defeated, and at most he will say that he has opened a brothel, and he can fool the past.
You must know that although there is a rule in the Song Law that strictly prohibits officials from sleeping in the Qinglou, in fact, this rule has not been strictly enforced for many years.
It is very common for officials in Tokyo to visit Qinglou, and later Zhao Ji, a kid, did not lead by example when he became an emperor, so it seems that it is not enough to use this to fight Zhao Xianqiu.
However, Yang Huairen still figured out the way Zhao Xianqiu established his power, he could build a mansion in Yangzhou, such a grand project, I am afraid that everyone in Yangzhou City knows about it, but no one cares about it.
On the other hand, Zhao Xianqiu can build such a large and luxurious yard, and the cost must be indispensable, and with his little money, it is definitely impossible, so from the side, this is evidence of his corruption and bribery.
But Yang Huairen thought about it, what if this mansion is no longer under Zhao Xianqiu's name? Isn't that hard enough to be a favorable proof to bring him down?
This is not impossible, although Zhao Xianqiu is the actual owner of the Yangzhou mansion, the nominal ownership of the mansion is likely to be in the name of a wealthy businessman, such as Huang Million or Bai Yinhai.
Zhao Xianqiu acted so cautiously, it was impossible for him to dig such a big pit waiting for someone to catch his tail.
So what can I do?
The matter of the Yangzhou mansion, since Zhao Xianqiu does not have to hide it, it means that he has already planned, and he has not figured out how he collected the 150,000 taels of silver by designing the huge bribes of Doufu.
It seems that he knows that Zhao Xianqiu has a lot of dirty and sore feet, but none of them can have conclusive evidence, and none of them can really be used as the actual basis for bringing down Zhao Xianqiu.
Without Zhao Xianqiu's handle in his hand, how can he be brought down?
Yang Huairen thought for a while, and then asked, "Tong Guan, think about it carefully, what else is there to do with Zhao Xianqiu, is there conclusive evidence that can prove that he was corrupt and perverted the law?" ”
Tong Guan shook his head with a bitter face, "Lord Wang, what our family knows, but we have said it, Zhao Xianqiu is so cautious, how can he let someone of our level seize the handle?" ”
