Chapter 242

Speaking of which, for some reason, the news of Liu Bingren being beaten quickly spread to the six ministries and the Censorate in Nanjing.

A few days later, Li Yan suddenly received an invitation from the Ministry of Personnel.

It is a turbulent time in Nanjing now.

The main reason is that Huang Jin, the Minister of Rites in Nanjing, was arrested.

This incident caused a lot of sensation in the officialdom in Nanjing today.

And the impact of this matter has just begun.

Why was Huang Jin arrested?

The reason for being arrested was to slander and slander the new policy.

In fact, many people in Nanzhili agree with Huang Jin.

Even Donglin Academy in Wuxi, Fushe in Nanjing, and where scholars gather, these scholars are discussing the new policy.

Originally, the new policy had not been fully implemented in Nanzhili, and not many people were concerned about it.

But it was because of Huang Jin that the new policy was pushed to the forefront of public opinion in Nanzhili.

What situation has led to?

Many people hate the new policy, believing that the new policy is a bad policy, believing that there are treacherous ministers in the court, which will cause trouble to the court.

Originally, those scholars in Nanjing did not notice the Huangcai case in Beizhili, and because of this incident, they all paid attention.

When they heard about it, the sense of justice really collapsed, and they all wanted to cut off the traitors in the court alive.

Of course, it became even more noisy when it comes to Huang Jin's incident.

So much so that Li Yan’s reputation in Nanjing is as bad as he is.

Everyone agreed that he was a lackey of the New Deal faction.

As a result, his wife injured Chengyibo's son, and now there are naturally more people who condemn him.

At the end of June, Nanjing was extremely hot. Li Yan took his men and horses and walked under rows of sycamore trees, and occasionally the wind blew by.

After passing through the Bell and Drum Tower, you will arrive a little further east.

The six tribes are next to the Forbidden City in Nanjing.

Li Yan turned over and got off the horse, and walked in swagger.

He came to the Ministry of Personnel.

At this time, Zheng Sanjun, the Minister of Personnel, was sitting in a hurry, Zhao Wansong, the Minister of Rites, Zhou Xinyuan, the Minister of Justice, He Kai, the Minister of Revenue, Xu Taichang, the Minister of Personnel, and Tian Zhen, the Censor of Nanjing, were all here.

Of course, sincerity Liu Kongzhao is also there.

"Zhengbutang, then Li Yan has arrived."

"Let him come in."

"yes."

Li Yan walked in swaggeringly. When he went in, he saw so many people there, and he immediately became more sure in his heart. This was a meeting of guilt?

After Li Yan went in, he patrolled around and did not find a place to sit. He called the person at the door and said, "Go and bring a chair for me, and you must be exactly the same as you all."

The person at the door looked in embarrassingly: "This..."

He Kai, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, sneered: "You are a mere juren, what qualifications do you have to sit with us? I think you are still kneeling there and speaking well. The court has the rules of the court."

When he said this, everyone else couldn't help but smile.

Li Yan was neither nervous nor angry. He smiled and said, "Mr. He, I didn't expect you to be still sitting here!"

He Kai even looked disdainful: "Why, I am the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. I am not here, where can I go? Go to your position as the Anti-Corruption General Office? I am looking down on you!"

Li Yan said: "No, no, no, Lord He misunderstood. My official means that Lord He should take the initiative to go to my official to ask for a cup of tea. If I am in a good mood, maybe I can give him a cup of tea."

"What do you mean!"

"It's not interesting, don't you know that Lord He?"

"What do you know?"

"A few days ago, Liu Bingren, the son of Chengyi Bo family, reported someone to embezzle from me."

As soon as Li Yan said this, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly solidified.

He looked around for a week, swept across everyone's face, and finally fell on He Kai: "There is Lord He among them!"

When He Kai heard this, he immediately stood up, pointed at Li Yan's nose and scolded: "Don't you go shit! How dare you frame me! Shameless people, peddlers and pawns! Arrogant!"

Li Yan became even more calm: "It doesn't matter if you don't admit it. I have Liu Bingren's confession letter and handprints here. Every word was written by him."

"Nonsense!" At this time, Liu Kongzhao, the uncle of Chengyi, couldn't help it. He stood up angrily, "You injured my son, and you must give an explanation today!"

However, Li Yan did not look at Liu Kongzhao, but looked at Zheng Sanjun, the Minister of Personnel, and said, "Today, Lord Zheng invited me to come, was it because he came to ask for the crime?"

Zheng Sanjun said: "Mr. Li, this matter is very serious. You'd better admit it. Everyone has face."

"What kind of face do you want?" Li Yan came up and directly retorted, "Let me apologize and then you have face?"

"It's interesting! I apologize. You have face. If I don't apologize, you will lose face!"

"I don't know if I apologize to this official, will you be ashamed?"

Sincerely Uncle Liu Kongzhao said furiously: "Rareless!"

"First, your son ran to the Anti-Corruption General Office to insult the imperial official, that is, me."

"Secondly, your son speaks rudely to his wife in front of him."

"Third, your son has established a document and plagiarized a handprint to report that you are buying and selling public land in Henan."

"The first and third points involve public relations, but this second point is a private matter. Look, do you want to apologize for this second point?"

"Nothing nonsense! Nothing nonsense! Come and take this person down!"

A few officials came in immediately outside.

Li Yan was furious: "Who dares!"

Those officials were so shocked that they dared not move.

"I am the yamen of the Anti-Corruption General Government, and is ranked as a senior official in the department. He holds the imperial sword given to Shangfang by His Majesty. Whoever dares to touch me is disrespectful to His Majesty!"

For a moment, the atmosphere in the room solidified.

"He Kai! Liu Bingren reported that you illegally trade Henan public land. What do you have to say?"

“Bad talk!”

"Yes! Nonsense! This person is extremely crazy, I don't know what kind of sweet words have been used to deceive the holy listening!" Xu Taichang, the Minister of Personnel, said furiously, "We should unite to submit a memorial to Your Majesty and impeach this person to correct the court!"

"Yes! Impeach this person!"

Zheng Sanjun said, "Mr. Li, do you say that Lord He and Cheng Yibo illegally purchase public land in Henan, but there is any other evidence?"

"No."

"Only what Liu Bingren said?"

"Yes."

"Then what he said alone is not trustworthy, especially since he even reported his father, this is probably not his intention, but someone forced him."

Zheng Sanjun is worthy of being a veteran. He pushed the problem to Li Yan in just a few words.

Li Yan smiled and said, "Who is forced? I don't know. I only know that there is a book of confession here, so I want to take someone back and ask questions."

He Kai shouted loudly: "You dare!"

"He doesn't dare, I dare!" At this time, a loud voice came from outside. Luo Yangxing walked in with the Jinyiwei.

When the people outside saw that the group of people were wearing flying fish suits, they dared not stop them.
