Volume Three, Chapter 179, Abandoning the Car

After more than two months of long journey, the Annan envoy finally arrived at the capital of the Ming Dynasty. However, the envoy this time was not sent by the Zheng family, but by the Mo family. Their purpose was not to ask the Ming Dynasty to send troops to quell the rebellion, but to ask the Ming Dynasty to surrender.

Mo Wenming, Ruan Wentai, Xu Sansheng and others presented the surrender statement on behalf of Annan, and the Annan map and the "Tax and Service Yellow Book" requested the Ming Dynasty to announce the Political Envoy Department, and from then on, they would always be the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

Annan Mo family also promised to dismantle more than 100,000 troops from Annan to more than 10,000 within half a year, and requested the Ming Dynasty to send 20,000 elite troops to station in the eastern capital of Annan and Qinghua in the western capital respectively to ensure peace within the territory. Mo family even promised to bear all the food and wages of 20,000 elite troops.

Jiajing happily accepted Annan's surrender, and immediately appointed Mo Dengyong as the commander-in-chief of Annan. Annan's internal affairs were all under his control and his descendants were hereditary.

The Annan issue was finally completely solved. From then on, the Ming Dynasty had an additional provincial territory. This can be said to be the greatest achievement of the Ming Dynasty in more than a hundred years. Since the Tumu Fort Incident, the Ming Dynasty has almost been bullied by small surrounding countries. This time, the Ming Dynasty finally raised its head and became proud.

Jiajing was really so happy that the Southern Japanese had been destroyed, Annan had been pacified, and the Northern Barbarians had not invaded the territory for several years. Under his rule, the Ming Dynasty seemed to be heading towards Zhongxing.

The Lord of Zhongxing has not had many dynasties in history. What a great honor this is, Jiajing can't help but feel a little arrogant.

Fortunately, he was not so arrogant that he couldn't find Bei, and he still remembered to reward the meritorious ministers.

So, who is the hero of ZTE?

Of course, Yang Cong is the only one.

This kid Yang Cong is really good. He repelled the Northern Territory, he wiped out the Southern Territory, and he forced Annan to surrender. It seems that he made all these great achievements.

But, there is a question, how to reward Yang Cong?

Yang Cong is now the right deputy envoy of the Censorate and the Minister of War. As for the further rise, it seems that there are only three dukes, Sangu and Grand Secretary of the Cabinet. Is it appropriate for Yang Cong to rise to such a high position at a young age?

This question is really confusing.

Jiajing had not yet figured out how to reward Yang Cong, but Yang Cong's memorial had already been passed to the capital.

This time, the memorial he submitted was quite exaggerated. He ordered people to send them not one or two pieces, but a box of one foot high, almost filled.

Of course, it is not all memorials. There is only one memorial, the others are confessions, hundreds of confessions!

Xia Yan was stunned when he saw the boxes sent by Silijian. What a joke? In the past, memorials were delivered in stacks, but this time they were just one box. How many memorials would there be?

When he opened the box, he was even more stunned.

Yang Cong actually attached so many confessions after a memorial, and all the confessions pointed directly at Yuan Yingshu, deputy envoy of Guangxi's criminal prosecutor. Under the leadership of this guy, most of the local high-ranking officials in the entire Guangxi officialdom were seriously corruption!

This, this, this!

This is what Yan Song called "The clear one is clear, and the turbid one is turbid."

Yuan Yingshu can no longer be described as the word "turbid". This guy is simply darker than ink!

He is not an idiot. He can tell at a glance that these testimonies are true, and there is no need for Yang Cong to fake them, because Yang Cong has enough achievements, even if he is promoted to the cabinet, the merit of punishing corrupt officials is nothing to Yang Cong. If he still uses these to fake them, then Yang Cong will be an idiot.

Moreover, he also knew that Yuan Yingshu and the deputy envoy of the prosecution of the criminal investigation did not have such great energy. The confession mentioned that the participation of Yan Song and the Ministry of Personnel is likely to be true.

This Yan Song is really not a thing!

Sometimes although he is a little selfish, sometimes although he uses any means to achieve his goals, he still thinks in his heart that he is a righteous person and he hates corrupt officials quite much.

Of course, he had heard of Yan Song's corruption, and he had even heard of Yan Shifan's selling official positions, but there was a difference between hearing and seeing real evidence.

In the past, he needed Yan Song's "right-hand man" help, and Yan Shifan's work was very secretive, so he turned a blind eye and went there.

This time it was different. The evidence was as strong as a mountain. In front of him, Yuan Yingshu, Yan Song, Yan Shifan and others colluded to buy and sell official positions, which made corruption in the Ming Dynasty and the people were prevalent. Can he still turn a blind eye?

Of course not!

He couldn't help but roar at the door: "Go and ask Yan Song to come over."

Yan Song naturally arrived as soon as he passed by, and was extremely respectful. After he walked in, he couldn't help but feel a little shocked when he saw Xia Yan's expression. This guy probably had the evidence collected by Yang Cong!

However, his face still looked calm and gentle. After respectfully giving the gift, he pretended to be curious and said, "Sir, what's wrong with you? Who made you so angry?"

What else is wrong?

What you did!

Xia Yan said furiously: "Yan Song, I trust you so much. You are so greedy and lawless. I am really scared. I will believe you, a shameless person!"

I have to say that Yan Song’s ability to act is really unmatched. He knew that Xia Yan was angry about what happened, but he pretended to be confused: "Sir, what's wrong with the Chief Supervisor? It seems that the Xiaguan has not done anything these days, how could he make you so angry?"

This shameless person can really pretend!

Pretend, I'll let you pretend!

Xia Yan subconsciously grabbed a handful of confessions and was about to throw them on Yan Song's face, but when he thought of the mess after he threw them out, he groaned again, threw the confession on the table, and then shouted: "Come and take a look for it yourself, and see what you did."

Upon hearing this, Yan Song hurriedly came to the table and picked up his confession and looked at it seriously.

After watching for a while, he suddenly put down his confession and sighed: "Oh, I know this will happen."

If I had known today, why would I have been there?

Xia Yan might have been a little angry, or perhaps he was moved to compassion when he saw Yan Song sighing, and he actually sighed and said, "Oh, only money is something outside of your body. If you don't bring it in life or death, what's the point of making money like this?"

Unexpectedly, Yan Song shook his head and sighed: "Oh, Master Chief, you were misled by the confession deliberately compiled by Yang Cong. Yang Cong obviously deliberately pulled everything on the lower official."

When Xia Yan heard this, he was stunned. Is this kind of thing necessary to deliberately pull it on you? Are you not the Minister of Personnel?

He couldn't help but ask, "Are these confessions fake?"

Yan Song shook his head and sighed again: "These confessions are all true. However, if there is a problem with the Ministry of Personnel, it does not mean that there is a problem with the officials. The officials stay in the cabinet every day, so there is no time to take care of the affairs of the Ministry of Personnel. These things were done by He Qian, the doctor of the Ministry of Personnel's Wenxuan Department, and the incompetent son-in-law of the Xiaguan, in private."

ah!

True or fake?
