Chapter 108 The Truth Comes Out
"General, most of the things inside are raw silk, medicinal materials, porcelain and many silks and satins!"

After counting the booty, some soldiers came to report.

"Except for the handed-in part of the seized silver, the rest of the brothers can keep it themselves." Qi Jiguang waved his hand and instructed.

"Yes, this subordinate will order you to continue!"

"Oh, by the way, send a few brothers together and send all those Japanese pirates to Jinyiwei! Let the people from Jinyiwei interrogate them, and it will save us some trouble." Qi Jiguang called his subordinates who were about to leave, and told him.

"Yes."

……

Jin Yiwei's power in the capital can be said to be extremely strong, and any disturbance in the entire Beijing city cannot escape their eyes!Most of the civil and military officials also live under the surveillance of Jin Yiwei.

Not only that, Jinyiwei's intelligence network is also extremely developed, how developed is it?

For example, an official went to the street to buy vegetables. After [-] minutes, what vegetables you bought, how much you spent, who you met, and what you said were all recorded in the brochure of Jinyiwei.

Therefore, after Zhu Qi and the others used Jinyiwei's intelligence network, they quickly found out all the people who had invited the little official to the banquet!While the people behind the scenes were not aware of it, they pried their mouths open with lightning speed, followed the clues all the way, and finally listed a long list.

At night, the capital city, the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Looking at the news reported by Jin Yiwei Zhu Qi and the others, Jiajing couldn't help but said: "It's interesting, it's really interesting, a small official was poisoned to death, and after a thorough investigation, officials from the Ministry of Rites were actually involved."

"Lu Fang, come and take a look."

After Jiajing finished speaking, he handed over the list in his hand to Lu Fang for inspection.

When Lu Fang saw the names on the list, she couldn't help being surprised, because not only many people were involved, but also the head of the Ministry of Rites, the member of the Ministry of Rites, Wailang, the servants of the Ministry of Rites, and even the minister of the Ministry of Rites, Yu Xian. member!
"Huh, before the imperial examinations every year, someone from the Ministry of Rites was appointed as the chief examiner. This year, I just changed the candidate, and it gave me such a big surprise."

"Earlier, Yu Xian, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, pretended to complain to the cabinet, asking the cabinet not to let someone from the Ministry of Rites serve as the chief examiner this year. This is a retreat!"

"After Li Chunfang's charges are confirmed, the position of the chief examiner of the imperial examination will still have to fall into the hands of the Ministry of Rites after wandering around. In this way, if there is any problem in the future, the responsibility can be pushed to Li Chunfang's head! The suspicion of the Ministry of Rites will Greatly reduced."

After Jiajing finished speaking, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Seeing that the emperor was in a bad mood, Lu Fang quickly comforted him and said, "Your Majesty, this servant also felt that the chief examiner of this imperial examination had accidents too frequently, either accepting bribes from candidates, or leaking questions inexplicably! Now, the culprit has finally been found."

"May I ask how Your Majesty wants to handle this matter? Lu Fang asked Jiajing respectfully.

"According to what I said before, let's do it all! Send Jin Yiwei to confiscate their homes, and put all the money into the treasury." Jiajing stroked the dragon head on the dragon chair and said lightly.

"Oh, by the way, let me release that Li Chunfang from prison!" Jiajing called to stop Lu Fang who was about to leave, and added another sentence.

"Yes, Your Majesty! This servant will do it now." Lu Fang bowed deeply to the ground and said.

……

Inside the prison, Li Chunfang was idly counting the scratches on the wall. These scratches have existed for a long time, and if you don't look carefully, you still can't see them.

"One hundred and two, one hundred and three, one hundred and four!" Li Chunfang counted and saw a mouse standing upright in the corner.

After getting along with each other for so many days, Li Chunfang has even established a fairly good friendship with these mice!Every time the jailer delivered food to him, Li Chunfang would secretly leave some to feed the mice.

Over time, these mice were no longer afraid of him, and sometimes even gathered in front of Li Chunfang, making strange patterns with their bodies.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps coming from outside the prison, and Li Chunfang knew that someone came to ask her again.

I saw Zhang Runde, the servant of the Ministry of Punishment, standing outside. Unlike before, this time his face was full of smiles.

Then he greeted the jailer, opened the cell door, and said with a smile on his face: "Master Li, let's go."

"Who is going to interrogate me today?" Li Chunfang frowned and asked Zhang Runde, the Minister of Criminal Justice.

In the past few days in prison, Li Chunfang has been interrogated countless times, sometimes by people sent by Yan Song and the others, and sometimes by people sent by Xu Jie and the others, and sometimes even Jin Yiwei will send people to interrogate!
"Master Li, no one is here to interrogate you! Let me tell you the good news, your grievances have been cleared."

"Oh, what? So I can leave!"

After listening to Zhang Runde's words, Li Chunfang's face was full of disbelief.

"Of course, I am the servant of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Don't you believe my words? These days, I am sorry for Mr. Li. I have to do this. I hope Mr. Li will forgive me!" After Zhang Runde said, he greeted the jailer Come, hand over Li Chunfang's official uniform and so on to him.

"Don't you dare? If it wasn't for Mr. Zhang, I don't know how much I would have suffered!"

Li Chunfang also followed the trend, and began to exchange pleasantries with Zhang Runde. The two of them chatted and felt quite speculative, and even had the urge to become brothers of the opposite sex.

"Okay, Mr. Li, go in and change your clothes! I won't let you go out in prisoner's clothes." After the greetings were over, Zhang Runde squinted his eyes and said.

"Well, Mr. Zhang is here." After Li Chunfang said that, she took the official uniform from the guard at the side, returned to the prison, and began to change.

Looking at the back of Li Chunfang going back, the corner of Zhang Runde's mouth raised an imperceptible arc.

"It's a good thing that I'm well-informed. I got the news from Eunuch Lu early in the morning. It's not in vain for my filial piety for so long!"

"This Li Chunfang was asked to be released by His Majesty himself. Coupled with the blessing of the number one scholar, the future is limitless! And I will take the first step to build a good relationship with this rising political star of Ming Dynasty, and I will definitely take the lead. Machine, there is a way that one step is fast, every step is fast."

After Li Chunfang changed into her official uniform, as if she was nostalgic, she took one last look at the prison environment and the rats in the corner, and then left without looking back.

"Master Li, let's go out!"

Seeing Li Chunfang finished changing his official uniform, Zhang Runde's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile.

"Ah."

Li Chunfang nodded, and then followed Zhang Runde's pace and swaggered out of the prison.

At the same time, Jin Yiwei's house raid is in progress.

In the dark night, countless torches were suddenly lit up, and the mansion of Minister of Rites, Yu Xian, was surrounded by layers of guards.

"Pass on my order, dare to resist, kill without mercy!"

"Yes!"
