Chapter 645 Partisans
Chen Yan received the order from Zhou Yanru and set off immediately and rushed to Nanzhili.
They all knew that if Nanzhili continued to make trouble, it would be the next Beijing city!
There are Zhou Yanru and others in Beijing, at least it will not cause harm to Zhou Yanru and his followers, and there is no such thing as Nanzhili!
On the night when Chen Yan set off, in Nanzhili, Yingtian Prefecture.
The eunuch Chen An, the Minister of War, Jiang Guangyue, and the temporary governor of Southern Zhili Li Hengbing, the commander of the Jinyiwei Lin Xiangdong, and the deputy general of Yingtian Zhang Yitan, five people sat in the palace's quasi-lei rituals, and they were talking about things in different expressions.
Lin Xiangdong looked at the other four people who were familiar with each other and said bluntly: "I have obtained the list of all the 'reverse cases' party members, involving all aspects of Nanjing, with a total of 561 people."
Chen An was worried about Zhou Zheng's confidant, and at this time he was anxious to express his opinion, and hurriedly said, "I have stabilized the palace and there will be no chaos. I have also notified the people who should not notify me. They will not become obstacles and will not ruin the great event of the Conquest of Xibo..."
After Chen An finished speaking, Jiang Guangyue continued: "Duke of Wei was detained in the capital. With the help of Eunuch Chen, I have controlled the military power in Nanjing and are being purged. It is expected to be completed in three days. Even if I take action tomorrow, there will be no big problem."
Zhang Yitan looked at his eyes and his nose and his heart, as if he had heard nothing.
Lin Xiangdong glanced at him and said, "Pan Heqi has been dancing very happily recently. She has been connected throughout Nanjing. You all know the joint memorial. There are more than 300 people. If they are allowed to continue, the court's reforms will probably not be implemented..."
Pan Heqi is the Minister of Personnel in Nanjing. He has opposed it with more than 300 people. From the perspective of the official side, he will definitely be struggling and may even encounter unpredictable shocks and consequences.
Chen An and Jiang Guangyue stopped talking. They were all marginal people of the Zhou clan and had very weak voice.
After seeing everyone talking, Li Hengbing spoke indifferently: "The first step is to seal the Censorate, Dali Temple and the other five departments except the Ministry of War, Pan Heqi and his followers, all of them will be arrested and imprisoned in the military camp. They will not be allowed to contact the outside world. Then, convene credible people and search the property of these people!"
Jiang Guangyue responded at this time and said, "You must pay attention to controlling public opinion. Nanzhili is not a capital city. Although they are not a monolithic city, if we catch so many people, they will join forces. You should know that more than 3,000 people can be captured?"
Lin Xiangdong frowned. Of course, they could not catch too many. It would be fine if three or four hundred. If they caught a few thousand, the whole world would have to explode. Zhou Yanru from the capital would probably really fight to the death.
Chen An looked at everyone hesitating, stretched his head, and carefully suggested: "Can you not seal the Censorate? If you support someone who is extremely trustworthy, the Censorate will come forward, which is much better than the Jinyiwei. If you have locals coming forward, it will be better than the Beijing people."
Lin Xiangdong, Li Hengbing, and Jiang Guangyue were all stunned, and then they seemed to think.
Lin Xiangdong's mind was very fast and he immediately said, "What reliable person do you have?"
Seeing that everyone was interested in their eyes, Chen An immediately said, "I am the eunuch in the custody. There are too many people who have cursed me. There are also many Censorate. Chen Benqing, the right deputy envoy, insisted on competing with me..."
Lin Xiangdong immediately understood and a smile appeared on his face.
At this time of the Ming Dynasty, many talented people were produced and bitched people were produced. Anything that was unconventional and unlimited was possible.
Li Hengbing's eyes flashed and he said, "I'll ask him to come to my mansion later. No, all the censors of the Censorate will come."
Lin Xiangdong smiled casually and said, "Everything is there, there are not many people who can come out, right?"
Li Hengbing looked indifferent and said lightly: "Then it depends on whether they know each other or not."
Chen An and Jiang Guangyue didn't care about these things, but they felt that the Censorate took action, which was much better than the Jinyiwei.
The few people discussed it again and then they acted separately.
Li Hengbing temporarily lived in the prefect of Yingtian Prefecture. Not long after, the left and right censors of the Censorate and the deputy envoy of the Censorate came.
Li Hengbing just asked a simple question, except for Chen Benqing, the other three were detained.
Chen Benqing nodded and stood behind Li Hengbing, looked at the three people who were taken away, and cursed: "Sir, these three people are all wastes. It is a good thing for the court to reform and reform. They are in a state of despair and pretend to be loyal and honest and worried about the country and the people. It is really hateful..."
Li Hengbing seemed to have not heard what they said. He looked at the backs of several people and said, "Central Office, can you control it? Will it be used tomorrow?"
Chen Benqing knew that Li Hengbing was a celebrity around Zhou Zheng, and was once the Minister of Justice. It was rumored that he would enter the cabinet soon. Chen Benqing was reluctant to let go of such a thigh. He immediately said, "Don't worry, after I went back, I summoned people overnight, first locked up the disobedient ones, and then purged them. Xiaozhi was so powerful that no one dared to disobey!"
Li Hengbing glanced at him and said, "You go back and come to me again after you are cleansing. I will give you a list. I will take people according to the list tomorrow, and no one is allowed to be left."
Chen Benqing listened and responded immediately. Just as he was about to leave, he turned around and whispered: "Sir, should the city be closed to prevent the news from leaking? Yingtian is easy to say, and in Suzhou?"
Nanzhili, that is, the provincial capital of Nanjing, is Yingtian Prefecture, but Yingtian Prefecture is not the most developed. The outstanding people and spiritual places in Nanzhili are in Suzhou Prefecture!
Li Hengbing said lightly: "I came from Suzhou."
Chen Benqing immediately said, "You are talking too much, and you will leave now."
Li Hengbing looked at his back, thought about it carefully, and left the mansion again, he wanted to go to the city gate to take a look.
The city gate had long been sealed, with soldiers from Nanjing City and captains of the Jinyiwei being supervised.
Zhang Yitan was standing at the city gate at this moment, bit the big chicken leg in his hand hard, and said, "Don't worry, even if they dare to make trouble, my five thousand men can still flatten them! They are all things that are eating and waiting to die. They can scare them to pee their pants by taking out a knife."
Li Hengbing looked indifferent and said, "When will Cao Wenzhao arrive?"
Zhang Yitan picked up the wine pot from his waist, took a sip, and said, "He comes from Huguang, there will be a few more days."
Li Hengbing turned to look at him and said, "You dare to drink at such an important moment? Zheng Xibo knew about it, so he would be punished, right?"
Zhang Yitan smiled and said, "We are not afraid of punishment. Forget it, I'm not afraid to tell you. I'm thinking that there are really people doing things randomly, so I'll use the alcohol to deal with them, and there's an excuse at that time."
Li Hengbing glanced at him with an interesting look and turned to go downstairs.
Chen Benqing's movements were so fast that he quickly seized power while other big men in the Censorate were detained. Anyone who was disobedient was directly imprisoned and imprisoned. After some operation, the Censorate was almost his own.
It is extremely difficult to distinguish a gentleman, but villains are like vortexes, constantly gathering and quickly joining together.
No matter from any perspective, Chen Benqing is not a good official, or even a treacherous person. Therefore, he did it without intention, and was as refreshing as lightning.
Chen Benqing quickly got the list. Seeing these big figures on the list, he had a toothache and wandered around the house for half a night. As soon as it dawned, he gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and rushed directly to the Ministry of Personnel with the yamen runners of the Censorate.
