"As far as Wei Chen knows, Qian Neng has been committing crimes in the local area. He has kept a group of thugs in the shadow of the mansion. He usually does not show his face. He only pretends to be a bandit from time to time, and goes to other people's homes to steal and rob. All the money he robbed was stolen by Qian It can be used to repair villas and mansions and buy paved real estate. In less than ten years, the Qian family has become the richest man in the local area, and his brother Qian Tong is like a fish in water in Beijing. Under the shadow of Qian Tong, Qian Neng is even more rampant. , actually robbing other people's land by force. Qian Neng first discussed with the farmers and wanted to buy the land at a very low price. Some were a little bit cowardly, seeing Qian Neng and his gang of vicious servants, so he followed. For those who refuse, Qian Neng will send thugs to destroy the farmers’ crops. Without the harvest, the farmers cannot pay the rent. At this time, Qian Neng will appear again pretending to be a good person and buy the land at a price that is almost free. If the other party If he still refused, Qian Neng sent another thug to beat the strong laborers of that family to bedridden. Naturally, Qian Neng could do whatever he wanted. But once he had seen Qian Neng's methods, and because of the local county Ling and Qian's brother-in-law both vent their anger through one nostril, and the people have nowhere to sue and are powerless to resist, so they can only let Qian do whatever they want and do evil things that are utterly devoid of conscience."

Rao Ji Yun had already known the general idea, so when he heard the details, he couldn't help but be shocked.

The people who lived and died in the Jinxiu pile can see everywhere, singing and dancing, a scene of prosperity and prosperity.Ji Yun couldn't have imagined that just at the foot of the imperial city, the world has become so chaotic.

There was real anger on his face, and perhaps because he had been less obsessed with beauty recently, his expression was less tired than before, and now his brows were furious, showing a kind of majesty, which made people dare not look straight at.

"Sapphire, are you serious!"

Gu Huan's face couldn't help changing slightly, he didn't expect that there would be such nonsense in it, he took a hard look at the position where Qian Tong was standing, Qian Tong received his slap, and his face immediately turned pale, even if He stood up and shouted: "Your Majesty, don't listen to rumors! Lord Lan Yu has always had quarrels with his ministers, and he was very dissatisfied with his ministers in the past. A few days ago, his younger brother caused trouble for some reason, and Lord Lan Yu even took advantage of this. Attacking and slandering my unwarranted crimes is really unbearable, I hope Your Majesty will see clearly!"

Lan Yu was not a Han Chinese at first, and she was upright and straightforward, but after staying in the Northland for a few years, she became more sturdy.Just now he read the article on the manuscript, and he was already suffocated. He heard the words and glared at Qian Tong, and immediately threw the wat board in his hand at Qian Tong, cursing: "Go away, you son of a bitch! What are you doing?" Root onion is worthy of my dissatisfaction with you, is it not you who withheld soldiers' pensions, took people to restaurants without paying bills, and let servants gallop through the streets?! Damn, I want to beat you up a long time ago!"

Qian Tong's forehead was pierced by the corner of the wat board, bleeding immediately.Qian Tong was in the military camp and had a good temper, so he couldn't bear such insults, so he blushed immediately, cursed, rolled up his sleeves and wanted to beat Lan Yu, and the people around him rushed to pull him.

Immediately, you pulled my sleeve and I pulled your scarf, and you smashed my wat board and I threw your shoe sole.

Seeing the Grand Court Meeting turned into a scene of crowd fighting, Ji Yun's eyes twitched as usual.Gu Huan, on the other hand, folded his arms and watched as he had nothing to do with himself. Ji Yun guessed that he wished he could keep arguing until the court was over.

It wasn't until the guard came up with a knife and pulled the two groups of people away that Ji Yun shouted in a deep voice, "Have you had enough noise yet?"

"Should I lead you to the gate of the palace, set up a platform for you, and take turns to compete with who is the loudest and longest?"

Everyone was still angry, humming and chirping, and barely stopped.

And Qian Tong, bearing the crooked crown and several red marks on his face, plopped forward and knelt down, crying: "Your Majesty saw how cruel these people are, they are like wild people ! No matter what is true or false, and no proof, you will beat your ministers into tricks, this is still in front of His Majesty, if you leave His Majesty's eyes, you don't know how rampant they will be!"

"..." Ji Yun looked at the other party's strong man with full beards and a fierce face, crying and crying with pear blossoms and rain, and his whole body felt weak.

He hurriedly rolled his eyes upwards, not looking at the face that ruined his mood.

After a while, before he was about to speak, someone stood up, with a slight smile on his face, and looked down at the lovely and pitiful Qian Tong.

"Why does Master Qian say that there is no evidence?"

The voice is warm and warm, which makes people feel like a spring breeze.

Qian Tong couldn't help being slightly taken aback, and after realizing what the other party said, his face showed anger: "What do you mean?...Who are you!"

From Qian Tong's inexplicable expression, it could be seen that no one was listening at the Grand Court Meeting.It should be known that during the half an hour of the court meeting, it was spent on discussing Bai Chen's matter.

As for Qian Tong being a general, because he was too rough and tough, he couldn't pretend to be elegant even if he wanted to, so he just gave up on himself and didn't learn literature at all, so naturally he didn't hear much about Bai Chen's reputation.So it's really normal not to recognize Bai Chen.

It's just that there is a huge group of civil and military officials, and it is impossible to know each other, so it is good if they are familiar.But even if you don't know each other, you can guess the official position of the other party through the clothes and clothes of the other party, and it will never be so embarrassing that you need to ask who you are.

Qian Tong deliberately pretended to be crazy and asked stupidly like this, but he saw that Bai Chen's official position was lower than his own, and he came to touch his brow at this time, deliberately humiliating him.

Ordinary people are put down in this way, even if they have a good self-cultivation and demeanor, they will at least show embarrassment if they don't explode on the spot.

But the smile on Bai Chen's face did not change at all, as if a shell had been put on his original face.

He also ignored Qian Tong's words, and only glanced past him indifferently, then turned to Ji Yun.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but Ji Yun always felt that his gaze had penetrated Zhu Yan, and he paused for a moment on his face before moving away.

But before Ji Yun could make a clear distinction, Bai Chen lowered his eyes, and looked respectful and submissive again.

Bai Chen said: "Your Majesty, at a banquet a few days ago, I ran into Mr. Geng Shuo, the prison officer, and Geng Shuo privately gave me a document that I can draw and pledge myself. According to the address on the document, it is also in Qian Neng's mansion. I found a list of Qian Neng's servants who committed crimes on the Internet, listed them in detail, and marked them all, including how many times these people resisted before they succeeded, and when they succeeded. After the ministers visited, they were able to match each .”

"Since Qian Neng claims to have no knowledge of what the servants did, how can he explain the list and the document he signed?"

"What nonsense!"

As soon as the words fell, Qian Tong stood up from the ground in a hurry, glared at Bai Chen, and cursed: "Which family are you, how dare you speak such wild words! Qian Neng is still in prison, and where did you get it?" I'm afraid you didn't fabricate the so-called written evidence, and slander others with slander!"

Bai Chen still ignored him, just took out two documents from his sleeve, and the servant took them and handed them to Ji Yun.

He said: "A few days ago, at a banquet, I met Mr. Geng Shuo, the prison officer. Mr. Geng privately gave me the evidence written by Qian Neng. The crimes cannot be counted in detail. I dare not keep it privately, so I present it to Your Majesty."

Qian Tong was ignored by Bai Chen several times, and he really felt suffocated.Hearing this, he snorted contemptuously again: "Who is Geng Shuo? When did it take the turn of these unworthy people to preside over the prison department? Qian Neng's case was interrogated and supervised by the prison department long ago I don't know why Geng Shuo didn't report the testimony to the chief officer Xue Changxue, but gave it to you in private."

As he said that, he still sought approval, and shifted his gaze to Xue Chang who was standing behind, but Xue Chang avoided his gaze, shrank his neck, and lowered his head.

Qian Tong couldn't help being taken aback for a moment, then turned his gaze to Gu Huan, who was looking at him coldly with a gloomy complexion.

Hearing Qian Tong's sarcasm, Bai Chen did not show anger, but became more gentle, he said slowly: "Yes, why didn't Mr. Geng give the testimony to his superior, but to this lowly generation like me instead? There are indeed unspeakable reasons.”

He turned to Xue Chang, whose eyes were drifting left and right, and then stopped on Gu Huan, whose face was becoming more and more gloomy: "Do you think so, Mr. Xue, General Gu?"

The meaning in his words was so obvious that everyone present felt a sudden and subtle atmosphere of embarrassment.

There was a slight smile on Bai Chen's face, and he looked at Gu Huan without avoiding it. Gu Huan's expression was cold, and gradually, the end of the sharp eyebrows raised a slight arc.

He said: "Bai Sanqi first entered the officialdom. I'm afraid I don't know what it means to seek a job in his position. Similarly, it is a big taboo to act as a substitute. I only think that Bai Sanqi is young and ignorant, so I don't care about it. The criminal and prison department has always tried cases. There is a fixed procedure, and before the case is decided, the process must not be disclosed to the outside world. Geng Shuo, as a prison official, knows that he violated the law, so he should be relegated. And his testimony has not been verified by the prison department, so it is not credible. As for this general On the other hand, I have received the conclusion of the case from the Department of Criminal Prisons a few days ago. Qian can discipline the servants ineffectively and make the servants act recklessly. They should be punished with a cane and pay compensation. This case is over, and there is no need to continue the investigation.”

After saying this without any refutation, Gu Huan waved his hand and announced directly: "Today's court meeting is over, everyone should leave."

No matter how good-tempered Ji Yun is, no matter how weak he is as a king, he can't help but suddenly change color.

He suddenly stood up from his seat, casually grabbed Fang's paperweight from the imperial case, and slammed it on the ground.

"Who dares to leave!"

He was so angry that he broke his voice halfway through.

All the courtiers hesitated for a moment, at a loss for advance or retreat.Looking left at Ji Yun, who was furious, and right at Gu Huan, who had a deep expression, he knew in his heart that Gu Huan's move was too much. Use them to attack.But that worry was only passed over in his heart once, after all, Gu Huan, who was more concerned about holding his own family and life, and his official career, did not dare to act rashly.

Gu Huan also stopped, turned around, raised his eyes, and looked straight at Ji Yun who was sitting on the throne: "Is there anything else your Majesty wants?"

Ji Yun's face was faintly blue when he was extremely angry, and his face twitched slightly. He clenched his teeth, forced himself to endure his anger, and said, "So you still know that I am the emperor."

But he couldn't bear it any longer, and his voice sounded like it was being torn apart: "I thought the whole world was named Gu!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed.

Rao everyone knew the fact that Gu Huan was in power, but they also maintained superficial respect and obedience to Ji Yun, and still only called Ji Yun his majesty.

But Ji Yun tore through this layer of fig leaf, completely breaking the delicate balance in the court for a long time, as if declaring war, he said sharply: "Bring the people involved in the case, and I will try it again myself."

He narrowed his eyes slightly, swept across the audience, and finally settled on Gu Huan's face. He spoke slowly and deeply, and said word by word: "Look, who dares to stop?"

Because of his excessive anger, bloodshot eyes even appeared in Ji Yun's eyes, which made his face show an almost stern expression.

Everyone had never seen Ji Yun like this before, they were too shocked for a moment, and finally felt the fear they should have towards the emperor, they all lowered their heads, not daring to breathe loudly.

Even Gu Huan stared at him, and was slightly stunned for a moment, as if avoiding his sharp edge, and stopped talking.

So money can be withdrawn from prison again.

Qian Neng was originally an ignorant person, often vicious, but not always brainy.I don't know who mentioned it before, and said with certainty that Qian Gui's evil has nothing to do with me, but after entering the prison, the person who raised the point may not bother to care about him anymore. When he was interrogated by Geng Shuo, he pried out the words in a few words. Draw a bet on it.

Now that the written evidence was presented in front of the hall, Qian Neng panicked and wanted to distinguish it, but it became more and more confusing.

But at this time, Bai Chen said leisurely and leisurely: "In my opinion, money can be as stupid as a pig, but it may not be able to do so many things. It is likely that the people behind the scheme think that money is insignificant, Want him to be a scapegoat."

When people are in despair, they are very easy to jump over the wall. Before being interrogated, Qian Neng couldn't help but wink at his elder brother Qian Tong, but Qian Tong just ignored him. He was already anxious and angry. Deciding that he was going to be a scapegoat, he couldn't bear the resentment in his heart, and immediately pointed at Qian Tong, angrily said: "Qian Tong! Have you forgotten who you rely on for this official position! If it wasn't for me to manage from top to bottom, you think Can you make it to the sky? You are very diligent in asking me for money, why are you pretending to be dumb now!"

Qian Tong jumped up immediately as if being set on fire, and cursed: "What nonsense are you talking about! When did I ask you for money! It is clear that you have been rushing to give it to me, how do I know that your money is What unclean means!"

Seeing that it was about to turn into two brothers arguing with each other again, Ji Yun frowned impatiently and was about to get angry.

Bai Chen had already raised his hand, held down Qian Neng who was about to stand up and scold Qian Tong, and said, "Don't blame others indiscriminately just thinking about clearing your name, even if Qian Tong keeps relying on your money, it doesn't mean anything. "

"What doesn't explain anything! If it wasn't for his lack of greed and instigation to do this and that, I wouldn't be able to get along with the whole village! He himself has been promoted in the capital, so naturally he doesn't care if I am accused in the village. Curse down your spine!"

Qian Neng cursed and cursed, but actually felt wronged.As if he was an innocent little white flower oppressed by Qian Tong.

Bai Chen was silent for a while, and then said: "There is no evidence for what you say, but is there any evidence?"

Qian Neng then reported an account book and a pile of letters between him and Qian Tong in private. Now that there are all witnesses and material evidence, Qian Tong's complexion is pale and blue. If he was not dragged by someone, he probably wanted to come up Kick him to death.

The case is thus clear.The Qian brothers committed a heinous crime, and they were all sentenced to ransack their homes, and all the coveted land was returned to the owner.

In the edict, Ji Yun also mentioned that using this as a warning shows that the current land law has endless disadvantages. In order to avoid more tragedies, the first round of land reform plans will be carried out.

When the edict came, Gu Huan was practicing a set of boxing techniques in the yard

After the case of Qian Neng, Ji Yun forcibly resumed the court meeting. Although he hadn't asked Gu Huan to reduce his staff, the fact that he had to enter the palace first for the daily memorial had already expressed Ji Yun's meaning very clearly.

Gu Huan claimed that he was ill and did not go to court, but he practiced boxing and swords in the courtyard every day. The emperor sent someone to read the imperial edict, but he didn't intend to greet him.

The envoy of the Son of Heaven didn't dare to say anything, and after reading it calmly, he tremblingly asked for instructions: "General, accept, accept the order?"

Gu Huan raised his chin, and the servants around him received the edict.

He didn't mind that the envoy was still there, and said, "It's because I tolerated His Majesty too much, and it made him look even worse."

When Ji Yun heard Gu Huan's words relayed by the envoy, his eyebrows twitched a few times, and then he suppressed his anger and sneered: "Now that I don't act according to Gu Huan's wishes, and want to stab him, he will naturally I have a lot of dissatisfaction, I'm afraid I still want to follow Yiho's example."

In his previous life, he was too jealous of Gu Huan, and he always had secret worries in his heart, fearing that the other party would follow the example of the previous story, arbitrarily abolish him if he was dissatisfied, and obey Gu Huan's words.

But for an emperor, who can really be willing to be a puppet and be at the mercy of others?

In the previous life, he could bear it, but after being reborn, he was unwilling to suffer any longer.

Ji Yun sent an emissary to send a condolence edict to the general, to the effect that he had been thinking about his body for a long time, and couldn't bear the fatigue of the general, so he might as well put down the chores for a while and rest for a while.

And they started to reorganize the imperial army and carry out land reform. It is clear what they say, how they behave, and the meaning of taking power.

The movement was too big, and Bai Chen even showed something inappropriate.

"The general is in full swing now, and he is in charge of the army. Why does your majesty have to advance so quickly?" Bai Chen frowned slightly, with a hint of worry on his face, and said, "The general is used to being strong, and he is not the kind to tolerate concessions." , Your Majesty is pressing too hard, I'm afraid it will anger him instead."

Hearing what he said, Ji Yun couldn't help showing a bit of surprise, and said: "I thought you hated the general, why did you speak up for him?"

Bai Chen gave him a helpless look, and said, "I don't have the slightest affection for the general, and I want to teach General Gu a lesson more than your majesty. But," he paused, and the words behind him seemed to be taken by him. He took it back and said, "Now is not the time."

not the right time yet.

Then when will it be considered the time.

Bai Chen's words went through in his mind, but he quickly slipped away from the corner.

Ji Yun didn't put in the effort to think deeply about Bai Chen's words, but the smile on his face gradually faded, and on his usual languid, careless face, there was a rare gloomy expression.

"It's time, otherwise he might think that he can do anything." At this point, he seemed to feel angry again, he gritted his teeth, "I really think I'm a fool, what he did three years ago , I don't know at all?"

His voice was almost talking to himself, but it wasn't to deliberately avoid Bai Chen, so Bai Chen could still hear the general idea.

Ji Yun was assassinated by an assassin three years ago, it seems that there was indeed a secret, and it was probably Gu Huan's handwriting.

And Bai Chen's heart sank slowly, and he clenched his fingers under his sleeves.

Feng Lang didn't forget anything, he remembered everything he had suffered, and he would get it back one by one.
