Chapter Fifty
There was only one sentence on the wide note, but in the eyes of the Tong, this sentence was added to all the other words - "Wenhua, foreign businessmen, add 400 taels of shares to help."
Although the words were short, they revealed the emperor's attitude. At least the position of the court would never be out of this range. Kaiping, Kailuan's merchant wars all paid 400 taels to help, and you, Sheng Xuanhuai, were actually whining and dared to take the big spoils of the world. It was simply a jealousy.
At the time of seeing the note, Tong was brave enough. Not to mention that he had already grasped a lot of bad debts from Sheng Xuanhuai, even if he didn't, he was just a disgrace based on the other party's statement on this matter. Tong knew Lin Guangyu too well, and anyone who dared to sing against him would definitely not have a good end. Liang and the Yang brothers were the same, but this time it was Sheng Xuanhuai's turn.
As Xu Shichang said, at the court meeting three days later, before Sheng Xuanhuai made a statement, three or four censors had already made direct comments on impeachment, but the focus of their impeachment was mostly on Sheng's various statements, and they only talked about his various bad deeds in general without saying the point. Lin Guangyu's face was a little impatient, but his expression was still solemn and solemn, and he only glanced at everyone below the steps.
Looking at the look of the emperor staying on his face, Tong knew that the time had come, and it was time for him to throw out the bombshell. He made up his mind, lifted his official robe, and stepped forward and said, "I have a memorial."
"allow."
"The slave impeached Sheng Xuanhuai, acting minister of the Ministry of Posts and Communications, to commit five crimes."
When the news came out, everyone was shocked, and only Xu Shichang smiled. This was exactly the plan he and Lin Guangyu agreed to take advantage of Na Tong's eagerness to be a minister of postal and communication. He made trouble for him to come forward and the 400 liang of the stockholder was settled before the departure. He deliberately chose this opportunity to reveal it. It was really a great intention. Originally, Lin Guangyu was thinking about using the periphery to check the accounts first, and then using lightning to break through quickly and force Sheng Xuanhuai to resist. However, the other party was so stupid that he actually jumped out of the battle between the two mines, which aroused public anger, and it was easier to deal with it.
"The first case is that greed is illegal, Sheng is in charge of various industries, and accepts bribes in a large number of industries. He only takes the construction of the Shanghai-Nanjing Railway as an example. The cost per mile is reported by more than 3,000 yuan, and the false report of silver is reported by the people involved. In addition to the richness of the participating people, Sheng is the only one who is rich in the mountains.
——The second case is to commit personal fraud. When Sheng is in charge of various industries, he will place private confidants on a large scale. Although there is no greedy person, as long as he has a personal interest relationship with him, he will be used. Take the Investment and Merchants Group as an example. From accounting, sponsorship, to supervisory affairs, and auditing. Anything that is good or bad is indispensable to Sheng’s private party;
——The third case, selling profit rights, Sheng presided over the matter of borrowing money to build roads, and only borrowing money, regardless of the rest, mortgage the road rights, guarantee the bureau's property, and handing over the national profit rights to others, losing millions of taels of silver every year;
——The fourth case, embezzling public funds, and taking charge of various official industries, not thinking about serving the emperor, and focusing on personal reputation. This year, donating tens of thousands of dollars to support someone, and next year, he will use tens of thousands of dollars to invite the opera troupe to perform, and use the public money to make a private sense of pride;
——The fifth case: suppressing the business people. Sheng often calls for business offices. In fact, it is not really for business offices. It is actually for business offices to respect themselves and force foreign officials. Sheng has no money to invest in various industries, but he has a lot of dividends every year. What's more, the business people clearly own equity, but how to handle something, and how to deal with someone has no right, but is actually short business stocks..."
One by one, one by one, the Tong said indescribably and passionately, and everyone looked at it. It turned out that even if a person who used the "wilderly lost his integrity" to accuse others of stealing men, he could speak so "full and full". Everyone noticed that the emperor was listening attentively, and no one dared to say that he was saying something badly - Tong, you are fifty steps and laughing a hundred steps!
The other party said the same thing. Sheng Xuanhuai's face twitched once, and beads of sweat on his forehead were gushing down. It was midsummer, but he felt that his whole body was cold, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. After reading the "Imperial Daily" yesterday, he knew that something was wrong - the emperor attached 4 million taels. How dare you, Sheng Xuanhuai, sing a counter-tune with the court? Originally, today's court would want to save one or two, but before he could speak, three or four censors came up, but now he was bombarded by the tung.
"You...you...you...squirted." Sheng Xuanhuai's fingers trembled slightly when he pointed at Na Tong.
"Emperor, every sentence that the slave said is true and can be verified. Sheng Xuanhuai covered the sky with his own hands and blocked the way of speech. The people were already full of grievances. I have no worries with him in the future.
Qiu, there is no need to falsely accused him, but there is evidence to accuse him of all these things. The slave dare not stand up." Na Tong ignored Sheng's incompetence and said, "I beg the emperor to send capable people to the south to check the accounts. The slave uses his head as a guarantee. If Sheng's private property is less than 10,000 yuan, the slave will admit the crime of false accusation."
More than 500? The court officials whispered to each other - what kind of ink was buried in the middle hall today? He actually bit Sheng Xing and did not hesitate to use his gamble. It seems that he has completely broken up.
Sheng Xuanhuai was in a state of chaos and kowtowed repeatedly: "Emperor, the emperor... I am wronged, wronged..."
"Whether it is wronged or not, you will know it once you check it." Lin Guangyu thought to himself, you really don't wrong you. You have more than 15 million private property alone, and the 5 million that Tong mentioned is still conservative. "If Tong said, you will cut it into pieces."
"Emperor..." Sheng Xuanhuai could no longer speak and almost fell to the ground.
—
"All civil and military officials in the court, who would like to share my worries?"
"I am willing to go!" Cen Chunxuan stepped forward, glared at Sheng Xuanhuai fiercely, and his face was filled with hatred of evil.
"Official slaughter" came out, who would compete with him? There were people who were eager to try it out, but when they saw this posture, the next words became: "Cen Zhongtang is fair in his work, and I agree with it."
"Okay, I will appoint Cen Qing as the imperial envoy, and go to Shanghai to investigate the Sheng Xuanhuai case. It is necessary to find out the truth. If Sheng Xuanhuai is wronged, then Tong's crime will never be forgiven. If the impeachment incident is true, Sheng Xuanhuai should be strictly dealt with according to the law and will never be tolerated."
Zaize has always regarded Sheng Xuanhuai as a helping hand. Seeing that he was besieged by many people, he was about to come forward to fight for a deputy envoy to see if he could turn around, but before he could speak out, his sleeves had been pulled by Prince Su Shanqi. The latter shook his head quietly and showed his eyes. Zaize did not dare to act rashly and gathered up his thoughts.
"I will enforce the law impartially and will not be in vain for the emperor's high hopes."
"Wang Shang."
"The slave is here."
"Send a telegram to Duan Rui immediately and ask him to send capable personnel to seal all relevant files immediately and wait for the imperial envoy to come and check. All movements and situations of the Sheng family will be the entire process of the army..."
"twitter!"
When Sheng Xuanhuai heard this, he collapsed, which meant that the last bit of space was gone.
He never expected that this net of heaven and earth had been fabricated a few days ago, and he had just rushed into attack after he fell into the net.
The Tong Tiaotiao had the upper hand and couldn't help but feel proud, but in the end he didn't forget to say a word: "Your Majesty, in order to be fair, during the case, the slave and Sheng Xuanhuai were suspended, until the truth of the case was revealed..."
"Okay, let's ask the Tong and Sheng Xuanhuai to escape the summer heat in the Summer Palace, just waiting for the heat to fade away."
Everyone was solemn. The last time Yang Shixiang was surveilled by the saying "I stayed in the Summer Palace to raise the disease", and then there was a major case of the embezzlement group. This time, Sheng and the others repeated the same mistakes, but they still didn't know who fell down - of course, no matter who it was, it was very exciting after all.
...
In the Cining Palace, a person was kneeling straight on the stiff floor tiles, but his head was drooping, almost hanging to his chest.
"Tell me, why did you get together with Sheng Xuanhuai? What benefits did he give you?" Longyu put his hands on his hips and pointed at Zai Ze's nose with the other hand and cursed, "Everyone avoided him as a disaster, but you dare to treat him as a treasure."
"I realized that I was wrong."
"If you know the mistake, you will be calculated? Let me tell you the truth. In the mild case, you can determine that you are a person who knows someone. In the severe case, you can determine that you are also a friend. How can you clear it up?"
Zai Ze is timid.
"If it weren't for your sake of being my brother-in-law, I couldn't bear to make mistakes step by step, I wouldn't bother to pay attention to you. The emperor paid 400 taels of silver to help Luan Mine, and Sheng Xuanhuai actually dared to jump out and point fingers. He seemed to be smarter than the emperor, or what if he was?"
Alas, Zaize sighed in his heart, I don’t know if this is the case, otherwise I will remind him.
Long Yu became more and more excited as he spoke. He stood up and walked a few steps on the spot with his feet on the bottom of the flower pot. He was so cold that he couldn't stand firmly. He shaking his body, Xiao Dezhang, who was serving him on the side, quickly supported him: "Master, be careful, why do you get angry if you move?"
"This is all so angry."
"My master, please take care of yourself." Zaize knew that Longyu had been pregnant for more than a month and kowtowed repeatedly, "Slaves must be refreshed and become a new person."
