In Wenyuan Pavilion, the copper stove in a room was filled with a faint sandalwood.

Lin Weiran, wearing a python robe, sat in front of the table, seriously dealing with memorials from all over the country, and was already very comfortable to deal with some difficult problems.

But this is an era of backward transportation after all. Even if he formulates effective plans here, it still requires the lower-level officials to implement them seriously.

Like the early years of Leizhou, Guangdong, when it was opened to sea, if it weren't for his efforts to solve problems such as funds, pirates and commodities, Leizhou today would probably be a backward city.

It is precisely because he not only insists on evaluating the political achievements of officials, but also strengthens their ideological and moral education, so that local officials can implement the new ideas of loving the people and developing the local area.

Of course, in the eyes of the remnants of the Xu Party or the Shanxi Gang, these measures were Lin Weiran who ruled out dissidents and cultivated his followers in large quantities in the local area.

Lin Weiran did not intend to explain too much, nor did he intend to explain it. Now he only hopes to transform this decadent dynasty through his own efforts and bring China to the top of the world.

"Sir, please see Master Lin!" Liu Tigan came in from outside and saluted respectfully.

Lin Qingran did not have a good impression of Liu Tigan, but he raised his palm gently on his face and said, "Shangshu Liu, please sit down!"

"Thank you, Master Ge!" Liu Tigan did not dare to be arrogant, and bowed and bowed and said.

In the current officialdom, there is no longer any land for their Xu Party. Now that Wang Chonggu has been dismissed, the Shanxi Gang can be said to be in name only, but only the current officials actually regard Lin Weiran as their respect.

If this big man stomped his feet, the court would be shaken three times, and he had long lost the qualification to challenge the boss of the court.

Lin Qingran knew that Liu Tigan would go to the Three Treasures Hall without any trouble, so he wrote the last memorial and asked directly: "Shangshu Liu, why did you come?"

"Report to Master Ge, Xu Ying was discharged from the capital. We just interrogated Xu Ying with Wang Bai and Xu Gongyuan!" Liu Tigan answered carefully, while carefully observing Lin Weiran's reaction.

Lin Xuran actually knew that the three departments had just held a trial. He first put down the pen in his hand and looked up calmly and said, "What's the result?"

"Although Xu Guangnian was instructed by Xu Ying, Xu Ying refused to admit the matter, and now the case is in a stalemate!" Liu Tigan was still observing Lin Weiran and found that Lin Weiran's face was not abnormal, so he continued to test: " The Xiaguan had just arrived at the office of Lord Yuanfu and Mr. Zhang. Both of them thought that the Xiaguan could meet the emperor and report the details first. I wonder what Mr. Lin was thinking?"

Huh?

Chen Jingbang came in to bring tea to Liu Tigan, but when he heard that Liu Tigan was actually the argument, he couldn't help but look at Liu Tigan in surprise.

Liu Tigan first went to Li Chunfang and Zhang Juzheng to ask for instructions, then came over to ask his own teacher for instructions, and took the lead in expressing the attitudes of Li Chunfang and Zhang Juzheng, and wanted to go to the teacher to take a step.

However, Liu Tigan was undoubtedly interested in the Xu family, but wanted to meet the emperor to try to exempt Xu Ying from being punished, thereby helping the Xu family avoid this disaster.

Lin Qingran picked up the teacup on the table, but didn't know how Liu Ti did these little thoughts, so he asked lightly: "It's stalemate? But I don't know if you think Xu Ying is innocent, or if Xu Ying refuses to plead guilty?"

this……

When Liu Tigan heard this unexpected answer, he was stunned at first, and then he responded with a tough forehead: "I dare not deceive the elders. First of all, Xu Ying refused to admit it, and the lower officials also believed that Xu Ying was innocent!"

"Since you judged that Xu Ying was not guilty, did you ask Xu Guangnian why he falsely accused the imperial officials?" Lin Qingran took a sip of tea and asked logically.

Chen Jingbang did not choose to leave as soon as possible, but stayed beside him and nodded with approval, then turned his head to look at Liu Tigan, who was already covered in sweat.

Liu Tigan pretended to pick up the teacup and took a sip, then his fat face was filled with a smile and said, "Geither Lin,... the official did not investigate in depth. This case is very important, and the place where the incident happened is far away in Songjiang. The Xiaguan didn’t know where to start, but he ignored this situation!”

While Chen Jingbang secretly admired his teacher's meticulous thinking, he also looked at this self-righteous Minister of Justice with contempt. He was playing a big sword in front of Guan Gong.

"You are the Minister of Justice. You must have your own constitution and method for the trial of the case! If you suspect Xu Guangnian falsely accused Xu Ying, then you should take out the evidence and motivation of Liu Tigan's false accusation, and even let him confess, instead of doing so, just do it in a hurry Report!" Lin Qingran put down the teacup and immediately preached.

Liu Tigan found that his logic was simply vulnerable to experts. He knew that his wishful thinking was broken, so he had to give in helplessly: "The Lord is willing to follow the teachings of the Master!"

Since Li Chunfang and Zhang Juzheng were both interested in the Xu family, he deliberately asked the three officials to investigate the matter this time, and then cleverly took advantage of the situation to bypass Lin Qingran.

But he never expected that although he easily received the support of Li Chunfang and Zhang Juzheng, he could not withstand Lin Shiran's few words of interrogation.

Now it seems that this case can be tried more carefully, and Xu Guangnian can even be judged as innocent by Xu Ying, instead of reporting it so hasty.

"Of course, this is just the opinion of our master! Since Master Yuanfu and Master Zhang both think that you can meet the emperor and report details, it is okay for you to meet the saint, so go!" Lin Xuran reflected, Suddenly the conversation changed.

Liu Tigan originally planned to go back for a retrial, but when he heard that Lin Xunran actually allowed him to meet the saint, he couldn't help but look up at Lin Xunran in surprise.

Lin Weiran seemed to have not seen Liu Tigan's surprise, but he started to process the memorials at hand again and issued an order to expel the guest.

Seeing this, Chen Jingbang smiled and raised his hand to Liu Tigan and made a gesture of invitation.

"Goodbye!" Liu Tigan suppressed the excitement in his heart, and quickly stood up and bowed to Lin Qingran.

Chen Jingbang sent Liu Tigan away, and then returned to ask in confusion: "Master, Liu Tigan clearly wanted to relieve Xu Ying this time, so why did you allow him to meet the saint?"

After years of contact, he knew that his teacher's eyes were sophisticated that he could even see Liu Ti's thoughts, but the teacher had no reason to be unable to see through.

The same is true. He didn't understand that the teacher could stop Liu Tigan, but he let Liu Tigan go to meet the saint.

"This matter is not my permission, but Mr. Li and Mr. Zhang have agreed. I can't object!" Lin Weiran continued to vote and draft the memorial, but made a correction indifferently.

Chen Jingbang frowned slightly, but he didn't understand the difference between the two.

"I have made concessions this time. I really want to punish the Xu family next time. Li Chunfang and Zhang Juzheng will not be able to stop him anymore!" Lin Weiran put down the pen in his hand and revealed his intentions.

Chen Jingbang nodded in a vague way, and then asked very seriously: "Master, if the emperor agrees that Xu Ying is not guilty, what should I do?"

"The emperor agrees? The emperor will not agree, all officials will not agree, and the people of the world will not agree! He is a skilled person in running for officials, but he cannot see the current situation clearly. He is just a mediocre person in the officialdom! "Lin Weiran poured the teacup again, looking like a wise bead in his hands.

Although Chen Jingbang knew that the people and the people were calling for severe punishment for Xu Ying, he still couldn't see the current situation clearly. He immediately said respectfully to Lin Xu: "I beg my master to give advice to my disciples!"

In this era, the relationship between teachers and students is like father and son, but there is no need to worry too much about students betray them, and you can even say something very private.

"Not to mention that it is impossible for me to accept the result of Xu Ying's innocence today, even if it is the current emperor, I will definitely not forgive the Xu family this time! In fact, when the incident of Xu Jie's operation of Gao Gong was exposed, I deliberately told the emperor that I would not pursue the matter. Xu Jie, but the emperor didn't take up this sentence at that time, and there was nothing in his heart!" Lin Qingran raised his eyes and looked at the threshold at the door, and said very seriously.

Perhaps Xu Jie thought he had done a lot of things for Longqing, especially in the will, he was the one who helped Longqing to take office.

However, the matter of the will cannot be a real contribution at all. If Xu Jie is commended for this, it is undoubtedly saying that the will is actually forged.

The most important thing is that Longqing actually inherited Jiajing's ruthless genes, and it is impossible for an indifferent emperor to be truly grateful to Xu Jie.

That's why Xu Jie did not have much weight in Longqing. With the pressure from public opinion in the world, Longqing could not choose to protect Xu Ying.

Chen Jingbang nodded as if he had some understanding, but still asked in confusion: "Master, even if the emperor does not have the Xu family in his heart, he may not be able to kill the Xu family!"

"This time is just a case of Xu Ying alone! Yan Shifan was sentenced to Tonglu and Tongwu, and this crime was even worse than destroying dikes and flooding fields, but Yan Ge Lao was just cutting officials for the people. Now even if Xu Ying is sentenced to death, he will be sentenced to death. Destroying the dike and flooding the fields is not considered a killing, but it is just a matter of raiding the house." Lin Qingran took a sip of tea and deduced it very rationally.

Chen Jingbang knew what Yan Song had suffered back then and nodded slightly seriously.

"Public hope, you can't see through it! The emperor today cannot be said to be carefree, he is also a person who needs something, so this time it's not me or the people in the world to destroy the Xu family, but the emperor probably won't. Will forgive the Xu family!" Lin Qingran gently put down the teacup in his hand, turned his head and looked towards the direction of the Ganqing Palace.

When Chen Jingbang heard this, his mouth opened slightly, and then nodded as if he knew it.

Ganqing Palace, Donghunting Pavilion.

Long Qing, wearing a dragon robe, looked at the trusted eunuch Zhang Fu in front of him, but felt a headache secretly.

Since the Ministry of Revenue repeatedly refused his request to withdraw funds from Taicang, the internal treasury has long been unable to continue, so it has to plan to issue treasury bonds to the capital through a joint bank.

But, although I encountered the situation of reducing the scale of bond issuance earlier, this time I turned out to be useless.

"Reporting to the emperor, I also talked about the difficulties of the emperor. It was just that the shopkeeper Chen of the joint money shop said that the emperor has issued too many debts in recent years, but now there is not enough income to fill the hole! If we use new debts to pay off the old debts, then the capital city will

The helper will definitely not pay the bill again, so please ask the emperor to raise enough silver to pay back the old debt, and then issue new debts!" ​​Zhang Fu also explained seriously in the face of Long Qing's inquiry.

When Longqing heard that he wanted to pay off the old debt first, he couldn't help but spread his hands and said, "I don't have any silver to pay off my debts now, and the inner treasury has already lost silver!"

"Your Majesty, according to the shopkeeper Chen's intention, this time, the Ministry of Revenue will allocate the inner court silver for the next year to the inner treasury, and you can use this money to pay back the old account!" Zhang Fu swallowed and spitted.

It was to say the plan over there.

"Next month?" Long Qing couldn't help but stared at his eyes and said in surprise when he heard this plan.

Since ancient times, it has always been "it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality". Now, letting him save clothes and stay on for food until next month is simply a matter of killing his life.

In addition, he had already promised Concubine Shu, Meiren and others to buy the new Zhujiang watch. If he went back on his word to the emperor, where would he put his face?

But he couldn't blame the United Money Bank for turning against him. The nobles and wealthy families in the capital no longer sold their face. They really owed too much debt over the years.

It was a pleasure to spend money at the beginning, but now he is facing the problem of repaying debts. He dares not let someone count how much national debt he has issued over the years and how much silver he has owed to those people in the capital.

It was at this time that Liu Tiqian was looking for a meeting outside the door.

Longqing was originally unwilling to meet with his ministers alone, but it was not easy to send Liu Tiqian back directly, so he asked the eunuch to lead the person in.

"I am the Minister of Justice Liu Tiqian, who pays homage to the emperor, long live my emperor!" It was the first time that Liu Tiqian met Long Qing alone, and he said with some excitement.

Longqing was not interested in Liu Tiqian. He first let Liu Tiqian calm down, and then asked straight to the point: "Liu Aiqing, what's wrong with you here!"

"The emperor, after the meeting with the left censor Wang Bai and the Dali Temple Minister Xu Gongyuan tried the case of destroying the dike and flooding the fields, it was found that Xu Guangnian's designation was instructed by Xu Ying, and the minister of the country was not at fault. This...

This case is mostly Xu Guangnian falsely accusing Xu Ying!" Liu Tiqian raised his head slightly and observed Long Qing, then threw out the words he had already agreed to.

"Xu Ying is not guilty?" Long Qing originally took out the memorial to act as a prop and was held tightly in his hand. He looked at Liu Tiqian in disbelief and said in surprise.

"Mr. Liu, as far as the miscellaneous family knows, this case has just been handed over! You didn't even want to touch Xu Ying's fingers in the classroom, but somehow it was so decisive that Xu Ying was not guilty, not a villain like Xu Ying was ordinary

What about the quibbling words?" Chen Hong, who was standing next to him, immediately said directly.

When Long Qing heard this, he immediately threw the memorial in his hand and asked Liu Tiqian very resentful and said, "Are you fooling me like this?"
