Since the news of Zhang Jun's arrest and imprisonment was announced in late June, in just over 10 days, the Yushitai Trial and Criminal Court has completed the entire process of collecting evidence, recording confessions during interrogation, and reporting on sentencing. Because the evidence of the sharing agreement was too conclusive, Zhang Jun had no possibility of denying it, so he could only confess to the crime. However, in terms of the evidence of other crimes, even if the three deputy envoys have confessed to the charges, they cannot be convicted at all because there is no physical evidence.

Even so, for Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru, one is for personal gain by using power and the other is ineffective, and these two crimes are enough to knock Zhang Jun down. This has served its intended purpose. And Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru have no time to delve into this case, they still have more important things to promote.

On the fifth day of the seventh month, Guo Chong issued a holy decree confirming the evidence and crimes of the Yushitai and the Trial Court in the case of corruption and dereliction of duty of the Sansi Yamen, and gave the final verdict. The third division made Zhang Jun demote to the seventh rank on the charge of 'power for personal gain, and the royal majesty was ineffective', and was assigned to a small county in Lingnan Province, fined him 500,000 taels of bribe-taking property, and all the rest of the idle posts were all promoted to the end. Ren Daoyuan, deputy envoy of the Third Division, Yamen, and Huang Qianyuan, deputy envoy of Duzhi, were sentenced to death on more than 10 charges of 'deceiving superiors and subordinates, arbitrarily exercising power and office, being corrupt, dereliction of duty, disrupting government affairs, and failing the emperor's favor'. The property of the two was confiscated, and their wives and concubines were exiled to the bitter cold land of the northwest to graze horses and sheep. Lin Bonian, the envoy of the Third Division, was charged the same crime as the other two deputy envoys, but because he reported meritorious service and repentance, the emperor's grace was vast and extrajudicial grace, so Lin Bonian was exempted from the death penalty, demoted to a concubine, fined and confiscated family property, and fined the Lin family in Hangzhou, where he was located, two million taels of silver.

In addition to these four chief officers, there are also many people involved in this case. Within the Sansi Yamen alone, more than a dozen middle- and lower-level officials were convicted. Several officials from the DPRK and China were also involved, and Zhang Jun's brother Zhang Yiben had been promoted to the prefect of Hangzhou. But because he participated in the transactions between his brother and the Lin family, he acted as his brother's accomplice, and was also demoted to three levels, from a fourth-rank senior official to a seventh-rank petty official. Like his brother, he became a difficult brother. If it weren't for Guo Chong's decision to stop at the right time and cross out a lot of names with inextricable interests, this list would be more than doubled.

With a holy decree, the Manchu Dynasty finally breathed a sigh of relief. Many people are secretly glad that things did not involve them, and their hearts that have been hanging for many days have finally fallen. There are also people who celebrate with their hands, because they have long been unaccustomed to the actions of the Sansi Yamen, and they have long held back the fire. Questions have also been raised about the outcome of this verdict.

Zhang Jun is the chief official, and his subordinates are derelict in their duties and corruption, and he himself is also a person who uses power to seek money, so it is impossible for him to just be deceived by others, he must be involved in it. But he only rebelled so lightly. Originally, many people thought that Zhang Jun would die this time, but he still saved his life, and he is still a seventh-grade official, which is really incomprehensible.

Lin Bonian was even more strange, the other two deputy envoys were sentenced to capital punishment of beheading, but he saved his life. Isn't it a crime for him to make the report public? Who's the credit? Shouldn't he confess? Although he was fined and his family property was confiscated and degraded to a concubine, he was much luckier than losing his head.

Many people secretly speculated, and they all believed that Lin Bonian's verdict must have an element of favoritism. Everyone knows that Fang Dunru is the teacher of Lin Jue, the new champion, and Lin Bonian is Lin Jue's uncle, at the beginning of the case, some people predicted that Fang Dunru would not be killed. As things stand, this is true. It must be Fang Dunru's subordinates who showed mercy.

Of course, for the vast majority of officials, the focus of this case is not on the above-mentioned aspects, but on the deeper portents brought about by this case. Obviously, Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru have gained power, and they can no longer afford not to take them seriously. The three divisions of the yamen even the pot end, what kind of action is this? The emperor's permission is to support them, and these two people have officially become a new force in the DPRK and China. And its momentum and impact are so strong that people have to face it seriously.

All in all, this major case has caused a lot of waves, both openly and secretly, and in the hearts of the people, and has given a great shock to the government and the opposition. Over the past hundred years of Shengping, some major events have indeed occurred in the court and the opposition of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but this situation is unique even for one of the highest yamen of the imperial court.

In recent decades, the government and the opposition have all fallen into an atmosphere in which everyone can get by and pursue extravagant enjoyment, and no one thinks about whether they should do this, whether they have fulfilled their duty, and whether they have adhered to their original intention of being an official. This incident was like a thunderclap exploding in the sky above Da Zhou, waking up the sleepy officials and making them realize that the dark clouds rolled after the thunder, and the precursor of the storm was coming. Many people began to conceal and destroy evidence, many people began to panic and secretly discuss countermeasures, and many people began to reflect on their actions after this case, and a heart that had been dormant for a long time became ready to move.

For Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru, the two goals to be accomplished in this case have been successfully achieved. One stands above the court. On the morning after the verdict was announced, when Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru walked together outside the Chongzheng Palace, the officials who were crowded in the rear quickly moved out of the way, for fear of blocking the way of the two and causing the two to be unhappy. Everyone looked at the two of them with fear and awe. This kind of awe is exactly what Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru need, because what they are going to do next will take advantage of this awe, so that those opposing opinions will not be able to speak, so that they will not dare to slack off to carry it out.

The second goal has also been achieved, that is, to completely blast the three divisions of the yamen. The next step is to break and then stand, and the financial power should be in the hands, which has a more positive significance for the next things. This is something that must be done before change.

Although there are still regrets in this case, many doubts and facts of the case have not been clarified, which makes Fang Dunru angry. And because of this case, Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru had to accept Lin Jue's blackmail and coercion, which made both of them very unhappy. But in any case, these are all white and slightly flawed, and there is no need to strive for perfection too much. Moreover, this case has brought an additional benefit, which is a large sum of silver.

Zhang Jun was fined 500,000 taels of silver, the three deputy envoys were all fined for confiscating their private property, and the Lin family was fined 2 million taels of silver. According to statistics, a total of nearly 4.3 million taels of silver were charged into the treasury. All of a sudden, many urgent things have been solved. For example, in order to prepare for the possible attack of the Liao people after the collapse of the New Year's coin, the money and weapons needed for Yanyunbian Town were immediately solved.

The privy envoy Yang Jun received the allocation of two million taels at the first time, and immediately stretched his brows, patted his chest and assured Guo Chong that he would not live up to the emperor's favor and would not let the Liao people advance half a step. And with Yang Jun's assurance, Guo Chong finally raised his eyebrows and wrote a fierce handwritten letter rejecting the Liao Emperor Yelu Zongyuan's proposal to raise the annual coin, and ordered the messenger to be sent to the Liao State.

On the morning of June 17, in front of the Yushitai Yamen outside the Xihua Gate of the Great Inner Sea, the old and young people of the Lin family stood under the scorching sun, looking at the gate anxiously. They were waiting for Lin Bonian to be released from prison.

Yesterday, Lin Jue had already handed over two million taels of silver tickets to Yan Zhengsu, and early this morning, Yu Shitai sent someone to inform the Lin family that they could take Lin Bonian out of prison today. So Lin Jue, Lin Boyong and the sons of the Lin family hurried here.

The sun was fierce, and everyone was dizzy and sweaty. It's been half an hour, and Lin Bonian hasn't come out yet, which can't help but be worrying. Lin Boyong wanted Lin Jue to go in to take a look at the situation, but Lin Jue told him not to worry. Releasing a prisoner also requires some formalities, so there is no need to rush. The decree has been issued, the overall situation has been decided, and there will be no minor issues at this time.

Sure enough, Lin Jue's guess was correct. Soon after, there was movement at the gate of the yamen, and a group of people walked out of the huge stone screen inside the door. The leader is none other than Cheng Fang Dunru in the imperial history. He was followed by seven or eight servants, two of whom supported Lin Bonian, who was haggard and pale.

"It's out, it's out!" Everyone in the Lin family shouted in surprise, and the two brothers Lin Chang and Lin Sheng stepped forward to greet them.

"Stand back, stand back." Several officials shouted in disgust.

Lin Chang shouted, "What are you doing?" Didn't you release them? Why do you still obstruct it? ”

"There are also rules for releasing people, and only when ordered by the adults in my family can they be released." The official glared and shouted.

Lin Chang Lin Sheng stomped his feet and sighed, turning his head to look at Lin Jue. Lin Jue frowned and stepped forward, bowing to Fang Dunru standing on the doorstep: "Sir, the student is advantageous." ”

Fang Dunru's face was expressionless, and he nodded, "Hmm." I've been waiting for a long time. Some pre-release formalities had to be completed, so there was some delay. Now this official officially informs you of the Lin family that Lin Bonian will be released and return home from now on. The former sins will no longer be pursued. ”

Everyone in the Lin family bowed their hands and said, "Thank you, Lord Fang." ”

Fang Dunru glanced at Lin Bonian and said, "Brother Lin, but I hope that from now on, I can refrain from myself and stop doing things that violate the law of the country." I don't want to see you in my Imperial Prison again. ”

Lin Bonian's lips trembled and he couldn't speak, Lin Jue sighed and said, "Sir, don't worry, it's impossible for you to see my second uncle." My second uncle is already a common man, even if he breaks the law, he won't be able to come to the Yushitai. ”

Fang Dunru was stunned, he heard the dissatisfaction in Lin Jue's words, frowned and wanted to say something, but he didn't say it. The two brothers, Lin Chang and Lin Sheng, were allowed to go up the steps, and they helped Lin Bonian down the steps one by one. Not far away, Lin Boyong was walking quickly and panting.

Lin Bonian was already full of unspeakable emotions, but at this moment, when he saw the eldest brother Lin Boyong with a stiff body and gray hair coming over anxiously, he couldn't hold back his outburst all of a sudden. He broke free of Lin Chang Lin Sheng's support, staggered over, and fell on the hot green brick ground at once, pounded the ground with his hands, and cried loudly.

"Big brother. Bo Nian is not filial, I am sorry for the ancestors of the Lin family. I am ashamed of the old and young of the Lin family, and I am ashamed of the expectations of the eldest brother for many years. Bonian can't wait to die in prison, why do you want to save me, let Bonian die in it for a hundred years. What is the face of Bo Nian to live in the world? harmed himself, and also affected the Lin family. Damn it, damn it! ”
