Chapter 1172 - Closing the Net (3)

Nong Jinghao has followed King Xin for more than 30 years and has won his trust, so he also knows a lot of things. Among them, King Shin asked the men to loot money and colluded with the magistrate to collect money one by one.

Of course, there are too many evil things to do in King Xin, and Nong Jinghao only chose the plots that have been done in the past 20 years to say that they are particularly bad, but even so, he has said more than ten things.

His Royal Highness was full of anger when he heard this, and he didn't know why the imperial grandfather would believe such a thing.

Relatively speaking, the eldest princess was very calm, because she knew all these things. She also had a special argument with the emperor about this matter, but the emperor insisted on protecting the king, and the eldest princess couldn't help him.

The eldest princess asked Nong Jinghao: "Do you say that the king of faith has been honored by corrupt officials and corrupt officials over the years, and has also amassed a lot of money?" ”

Nong Jinghao nodded and said, "Yes, I am also involved in three of them. In other matters, the staff of Wen and the staff of Chen were involved separately. ”

After telling the grandson and the eldest princess everything he knew, Nong Jinghao said: "The old man has been abusing him all these years, and the reason why he has survived until now is that he hopes that the court can bring him to justice. Your Royal Highness, the eldest princess, I hope you can enforce the law impartially and give justice to those victims. ”

After saying this, Nong Jinghao slammed into the pillar, but fortunately, the guards in the palace did not let him commit suicide in time.

Taisun held the armrests of the table and chair and said in a cold voice: "Don't worry, if what you say is true, I will not let him go unpunished again." ”

The eldest princess also said: "You are one of the most important witnesses, and if you die, there will be one less person to testify against him." ”

Nong Jinghao then dispelled the idea of committing suicide.

His Royal Highness Taisun immediately asked Luo Yongyi to arrest the chief butler of the Xinwang Mansion and all the staff of the Xinwang Mansion.

The big butler is a hard bone, and he hasn't said a word after all the eighteen kinds of torture. But I heard that the staff and other literati didn't have such hard bones, and they all confessed without being exposed for half an hour. Then according to his confession, Luo Yongyi arrested a lot of people.

In fact, not only the common people, but also many courtiers hated King Xin. It was only because of the emperor's favor that he was able to get away with it all these years. Now that Taisun is determined to deal with him, those who were wronged and aggrieved in the past have all come forward.

After getting enough evidence, His Royal Highness Taisun ordered Wu Zhengxiao and Luo Yongyi to raid the Xinwang Mansion.

Everyone knows that the Xinwang Mansion is rich, and many ministers want to get this errand.

Copying the family has always been a fat poor, as long as you get a little bit of something from it, you can eat and drink spicy food in this life. It's a pity that Wu Zhengxiao is different from these people, he doesn't want to get involved in this matter. After getting the news, he entered the palace and asked to see His Royal Highness the Taisun, and politely said that he didn't want to take this errand.

"Your Highness, there are many capable people in the court, why did you choose me to do this?" His Royal Highness Taisun asked him to do this with bad intentions, so he resolutely refused to accept this hot potato.

Taisun looked at him, and his gaze suddenly became very deep: "What, unwillingly?" ”

Wu Zhengxiao's heart sank, knelt on the ground and said: "It's not that the minister is unwilling, but the Soldiers and Horses Division is responsible for patrolling thieves, clearing the streets and ditches, prisoners, fire prohibition and other things. Your Highness, the matter of raiding the house is not under the control of the Soldiers and Horses. ”

Taisun glanced at him and said lightly: "The soldiers in the border city have not been paid military salaries for two months. The cabinet has received three folds from the prince of Zhenguo, which are all from the imperial court for military salaries, food and various materials. ”

Wu Zhengxiao's heart sank, but he still said: "What is Your Highness doing when you say this to your ministers?" ”

His Royal Highness Taisun said: "The cabinet of Zhenguo Gong's excerpt did not approve it, not because they didn't want to give it, but because the treasury couldn't get the money. Wu Zhengxiao, King Xin has looted countless properties over the years, and some of them have been deducted from these soldiers. This time the seizure of the Xinwang Mansion will definitely fill the treasury, and after these assets are registered, I will first approve the excerpts of the Zhenguo Gong. ”

Having said that, Wu Zhengxiao can't refute it anymore. In the past, the treasury was full, and the soldiers in the border cities were still living well. But in recent years, the emperor's cronyism has become more and more mediocre, corrupt officials are everywhere, and the taxes collected are getting less and less, and the treasury has been tossed out.

It took three days for Wu Zhengxiao and his subordinates to complete the inventory of the property in King Xin's mansion, and the account book of the registered property was full of five large boxes.

In addition, Luo Yongyi and Wu Zhengxiao also searched for letters and account books between King Xin and local officials. He didn't read any of them, and sent them directly to His Royal Highness Taisun.

With these letters and the books of bribes, the sin of the king was confirmed.

What happened in the capital reached the summer resort as quickly as possible.

Yi An specially called Qingshu, Xiaoyu and others and told everyone about it: "One hundred and twenty-eight mansions, five thousand six hundred fields, six money villages, twenty-four pawnshops, seven hundred and sixty thousand taels of gold, and one thousand two million three hundred and thirty-seven thousand taels of silver. There are countless treasures such as silk and satin precious porcelain ornaments and antiques, and I will not go into detail about the specifics. ”

Not to mention Qingshu, even Huan Xi and Xiao Yu, who grew up in Jinxiu Duili since childhood, were dumbfounded.

Feng Xiaoyu said directly: "Yi'an, is your news accurate?" How could there be so much gold and silver in the palace of King Xin? ”

It's just a treasure, after all, most of the body of the queen mother's favored little son was left to him. In addition, the amount of what the emperor has rewarded and what he has looted over the years is also amazing, so Feng Xiaoyu is not unusual. But there is so much gold and silver hidden in the house, it is too unbelievable.

Yi An said: "My third brother and Luo Yongyi went to raid the Xinwang Mansion together, so the news from the mansion should not be wrong. ”

Feng Xiaoyu still couldn't believe it: "We all know that he got a lot of silver money by illegal means, but he also spent money like running water, and it is impossible to have so much gold and silver." ”

Yi An said with a smile: "Have you forgotten that there are more than 20 pawnshops in the Xinwang Mansion with six money banks, and these industries are all cornucopias!" ”

"Then you can't move all the money from the money to the Xinwang Mansion, what about the people who saved the money?"

Qingshu said: "It's really possible. King Xin loved money so much, maybe he felt that the money had to be kept under his nose before he could rest assured. ”

Yi An said: "This case has now been handed over to Lan Yi Yushi, and now he is only waiting for the three divisions to judge and convict King Xin." ”

Feng Xiaoyu said uncomfortably: "What do you think about King Xin? He is the emperor's younger brother, and with the emperor's trust and reliance on him, even if he does nothing in his life, he can enjoy glory and wealth. What do you think he's doing this? ”

Qingshu said: "I don't know about this, I only know that countless people have died in his hands over the years. So I really hope that Taisun will bring him to justice. ”

Yi An sneered: "Qingshu, he should know very well that no matter who becomes the emperor, he will not let go of his fat sheep."

With such a large sum of money, Taisun can breathe a sigh of relief this time.
