Chapter 623 Inquiry

Anyway, I couldn't hear it clearly, so I just stood there and waited. Zilan was thinking about what to say when it was difficult.

I don’t know how long I stood there and heard the eunuch sing his name.

"It's time for you, go quickly."

Zi Lan then left the line and entered the hall, bowed to the emperor first, and bowed to the emperor with both hands and bowed. This is the etiquette that officials should do.

"I respectfully ask the emperor for peace."

Zilan has a very respectful attitude and a very regular etiquette.

"Well, Zuodu Censor impeached Yangzhou Yan Yan Censor to embezzle and accept bribes, and the amount is very large. What do you have to say as the president of the Supervision Office?"

The emperor looked at Zi Lan below with a majestic look on his face.

"I have something to say."

As she said that, she took out a note from her sleeve.

Then he continued, "The Yangzhou Censor embezzled and accepted bribes. In the past six years, he has embezzled nearly 100,000 taels of snowflakes. Where did each transaction come from? There are specific records of which salt merchant you have to deal with. Please read it."

The eunuch presented the box with a specific report, which was very detailed. It was a very detailed year, month and day for which merchant to have dinner with, how many bribes were received, including the account book, etc.

After watching it, the emperor slapped the table with a bang.

"Li Aiqing, the facts are there, what else do you have to defend?"

The emperor was furious.

Jingshi Li fell to the ground with a weak leg, "Your Majesty, please spare me."

"Snowflakes are just one of them. This does not include the antique treasures and treasures in Lord Li's family. These are three books, and I have checked them repeatedly."

Zi Lan calmly finished shooting.

"Your Majesty, such thieves must be severely punished."

Master Li was the first to stand up and scold him angrily.

"The Prime Minister calms down and don't worry. There is a series of corruption offenders on this note, and they are all on the list. It is guaranteed to be sure and the evidence is conclusive."

"The Jinyiwei did make great efforts this time, and I am very satisfied."

In fact, this memorial was submitted before, and this dynasty was just a final conclusion.

"Come, take it."

The emperor ordered in a deep voice.

At this moment, Lord Li suddenly got up and rushed towards Zi Lan. She was so fast that she didn't have time to react.

A figure rushed out not far from Zi Lan and rushed out and raised his leg and kicked Lord Li hard. He was kicked down on the spot.

The person who took the attack was Yang Lin. He stood at the position of the general on the right, more than an arm away from Zi Lan, just in time.

After seeing it, Cui Hao silently retreated back to his team and breathed a sigh of relief.

"You are seeking death when you commit an offense in the hall."

Yang Lin cursed angrily, turned to the imperial guards and scolded him, "What are you doing while standing there? Drag it down."

Lord Li was dragged down by the powerful guards of Jingwu and dragged him down and imprisoned him.

Zi Lan stood there calmly and modestly from beginning to end, not impatient or impatient, not panic or fearful, and was very calm.

The condescending emperor saw this scene and showed a faint smile.

"Others are pending, and they will retreat to the court."

"Retreat the court!" The eunuch sang loudly and the emperor left.

The biggest corrupt official, Lord Li, was not over, it was still early. What’s more important is who wanted to take over the position of the Jiangnan Salt Censor, the salt tax was the big one.

After leaving, he came out in silence to everyone. Song Zhengtian walked over quickly, glanced at his daughter up and down, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

"You're scared."

"Dad, I'm fine, he didn't touch me."

"Well, be careful next time, and run away if it doesn't work."

Song Zhengtian also had a blue face. No one expected that Lord Li would dare to attack Zilan. No one had time to react, so Yang Lin reacted quickly.

"Dad, who is the right place to go to Jiangnan?"

"The emperor has already chosen someone in his heart."

The little eunuch trotted over and saluted a few of them, "I've said hello to the adults, and the emperor has invited a few of them."

"Are we all going?"

Yang Lin asked unexpectedly.

"Yes, Lord Yang is going too, the emperor has named it."

The little eunuch smiled happily.

Zi Lan handed him a purse, "Thank you, my father-in-law, is the emperor's face okay?"

"The emperor is talking to the prime minister. I didn't hear it either."

This means that I didn't lose my temper. The little eunuch took his wallet quickly and spoke with a smile.

"Let's go, don't let the emperor wait."

Song Zhengtian led his daughter to Nanshu to meet the saint. Cui Hao was going there too, and he said just now that he was also on the list.

When we arrived at the study, several prime ministers and several princes were all there, and we were discussing the issue of how these corrupt officials should deal with it.

"The girl is here, I didn't scare you today."

The emperor waved to them and asked Zilan first.

"Thank you for your concern. I'm fine. My cousin moves smoothly." Zilan chuckled and teased to ease the atmosphere.

"Who do you think is suitable to go to Jiangnan?"

The emperor looked up at her and asked.

Zi Lan thought for a while and said, "It is best to have someone with a sleek but straightforward personality, and a higher identity. If you have too low status and not obvious family background, you may be swallowed. This can be proved by several deaths before.

These salt merchants are bold and dare to do anything. If they go without any blood, they will probably not be able to do anything.

I found out that I had lost a lot of tax money, at least hundreds of thousands of taels were gone. The emperor dared to suggest that some thunder means were needed and some blood should be seen if necessary.

Otherwise, the loss will be hundreds of thousands every year, and this money is really easy to make. I only earned 180,000 yuan a year last year, but I only earned 180,000 yuan a year. This is a few hundred thousand yuan.”

Zi Lan was so angry that she was so angry that she was so angry that she was so angry that these salt merchants were so brave and really rich.

The emperor was silent for a moment, "You are right. It's less than 200,000 taels of silver for a year. These people embezzled hundreds of thousands of yuan, which is hateful to cause the accident!"

The emperor was so angry that he knocked the teacup heavily, his face as dark as ink.

"Or the emperor will choose a capable young child from the royal family. If he has enough status, he will give him some face. How many capable descendants in the royal family are there?"

Zi Lan gave a suggestion that would not go wrong.

"Well, but the clans have no experience, so it's best if they need a court official to assist me. Think about who is suitable for me, and choose from the general's family."

"This is too simple. There are several boys in the Yu family. My cousin can do this.

And my cousin is also a man who charges and leads troops. It is enough to kill a few bold salt merchants.

The boy from the Qu family heard that he did a good job in the Ministry of Justice.”

Zilan said without thinking about it, saying that several of the military generals whom the emperor trusted most in his heart, and of course he brought the brothers of the Yang family.

The emperor rolled his eyes at her, "Anyway, you can't forget your family. You are partial."

The people present, including her grandfather Yang Houye and Yang Dong, couldn't help but laugh, and Yang Lin also blushed and smiled.

Zi Lan didn't care about that, "What's wrong with my brother? He is both literary and martial, young and promising, what's wrong? Besides, I have given several choices. I think they are all capable. If you don't work, just choose your nephews."

The emperor was so excited.

"You're smart, so let Yang Lin go."

"I obey the order."

Yang Lin immediately received the order.

"Well, it's simply outrageous if you go to Yangzhou to be the salt inspector and take back the salt tax.

Let Brother Lin investigate the corrupt officials in Jiangnan, take them all for me, and give them a blue sky and a white sun."

The emperor was determined to rectify the Jiangnan officialdom, but he just took the Salt Censor first to attack the attacker.
