Chapter 303

When Yuan Bin hurried back to the capital, he found that everything was over.

Zhu Ji had already led people to arrest the main criminals Tang Ziqing, He Sanshui, etc. into Zhao Prison. These people saw that the matter had been exposed, and then looked at the various instruments of torture around them.

Businessmen are the best at calculating interests. If they come to a place like Zhao Prison, they will definitely not be able to get out. It is better to recruit quickly to save themselves the pain of flesh and blood.

Because suffering is in vain, maybe I have a better attitude of pleading guilty, and I can still fight for leniency.

Looking at the confessions of these people, Yuan Bin still had a question in his mind.

I just discovered the problem in Qian'an County, and the trial here is over, isn't this too fast?

Zhu Ji reported truthfully: "When I received the decree, I felt very abrupt. The situation was urgent and I didn't have time to think. I took people to Tianjin Wei overnight. After careful consideration, it might be..."

Yuan Bin had always trusted Zhu Ji, so he said, "Whatever you think of, just say it, don't have any scruples."

Zhu Ji nodded, lowered his voice, and said, "Maybe the emperor has arranged for other people to spy on Caijiagou Mining!"

Hearing this, Yuan Bin suddenly fell into deep thought. Who else could do such a thing except Jin Yiwei for inquiring about information?

Dongchang?
If in the past, when Wang Zhen was still there, Dongchang could cover the sky with one hand, and it would be justified.

However, now the emperor has compressed the power of Dongchang, and he is only responsible for the inner courtyard of the palace and the relatives of the emperor. The rest of the cases are basically handed over to Jin Yiwei, and since he has been in charge of Jin Yiwei, he has been able to handle things fairly well. , the emperor has never been suspicious, why did other forces suddenly intervene this time?
Zhu Ji saw Yuan Bin's doubts, so he expressed his own thoughts: "My lord, I humbly conjecture, could it be... Jueshengwei?"

Yuan Bin's heart skipped a beat. If it was Jueshengwei, then the matter would make sense.

This organization is a hundred times more mysterious than Jinyiwei. As the commander of Jinyiwei, he supervises all the officials in the world, but he never has any information about Jueshengwei.

There are even rumors that after receiving the summons, the commander of the Jueshengwei can decide whether to obey the imperial edict according to the specific situation.

This privilege is the protection of the Jueshengwei, but also the protection of the imperial power.

Imagine if there is a shadow around you, watching your every move all the time, but you will never know who these people are, what kind of feeling will it be like?
Zhu Ji also said: "At the time when the emperor personally marched, before the Northern Expedition to Mongolia, he disclosed some information to the humble, saying that as long as the information provided by Jueshengwei, Jinyiwei must cooperate unconditionally, until the emperor returned from the Northern Expedition and was assassinated in the street. It appeared once, other than that, Humble has never heard any news about the Jueshengwei."

Yuan Bin nodded, only the emperor could know the whereabouts of Jueshengwei, not even the crown prince.

Unless the emperor suffered a sudden accident and died before passing the edict, at this time, the Commander of the Jueshengwei would take the initiative to find the prince.

However, if it is really Jueshengwei, the situation will be serious.

Because Jueshengwei's actions required absolute secrecy, ordinary cases were ignored by others.

It seems that the case of Caijiagou is not as simple as a few profiteers.

Yuan Bin thought of this, and said in a deep voice: "Continue the interrogation, these people must have something to hide!"

Zhu Ji was a little puzzled: "They have explained the scam of Caijiagou Mining from the beginning to the end, including how to make false accounts, how to increase the stock price, and which officials were bribed. They are all clear."

Yuan Bin shook his head and said, "No, there must be something missing, you continue to interrogate, and if you don't, you will be punished!"

Zhu Ji obviously couldn't understand why the commander was so determined, but he could only follow through.

In Zhao Prison, ghosts and wolves howled suddenly.

Poor He Sanshui, since he was the titular boss, he became the key object of care, and tasted all the instruments of torture.

In the end...it was useless to fight, because he really didn't know anything.

The only thing he could admit was that Tang Ziqing was responsible for bribing officials.

This clue caught Zhu Ji's attention, and then various instruments of torture were called to Tang Ziqing.

Finally, Tang Ziqing couldn't bear it any longer, and confessed the instigation behind him.

When Zhu Ji saw the confession, he was so shocked that his back broke out in cold sweat, and immediately presented it to Yuan Bin.

Yuan Bin's shock was not much stronger than his, and his face was so dark that he could squeeze out ink.

"Arrests!"

With one order, all Jinyi guards in the city came out and surrounded the secret den of the White Lotus Sect.

However, who is Song Guxi? After getting wind of it, he ran away long ago.

Looking at the empty yard, Yuan Bin felt angry.

At this moment, he finally understood why the emperor dispatched the Jueshengwei.

Song Guxi, this woman is not simple, she is cruel and scheming, she even hid under her nose for a year, and even messed up the stock market.

Damn, careless!

Now that everyone is gone, it's too late to say anything.

Therefore, on the one hand, Yuan Bin sent people to continue to search for the whereabouts of the remnants of the White Lotus Sect, and on the other hand, leaving Zhu Ji to continue interrogating Tang Ziqing and others, he hurried into the palace.

However, Zhu Qizhen seemed to know the result a long time ago, and his expression was very flat.

Seeing the emperor's reaction, Yuan Bin felt even more guilty. He knelt down and bowed his head and said, "As the commander of Jinyiwei, I have committed serious dereliction of duty. Please be punished by the emperor!"

"I can't blame you for this."

Zhu Qizhen waved his hands and said, "Get up and talk back!"

Yuan Bin looked depressed, stood up slowly, and said: "According to Tang Ziqing's confession, it has been a year since Song Guxi returned to the capital, and this person has been quietly hiding under my nose, and I don't even know about it, really... . . . death to death!"

"Don't say it's you. I didn't expect that this woman is not simple. It's a pity that she insists on going against me."

Zhu Qizhen shook his head helplessly, and continued: "Daming's stock market has just started, and it was almost wiped out by them. Next, these people will definitely use the Caijiagou case to spread rumors. You send more spies. , Watching in the streets and alleys, if you find someone deliberately spreading rumors, don't rush to do it, follow the clues, and find out who is behind the scenes!"

Yuan Bin saluted: "I obey the order!"

After Caijiagou Mining was investigated, it really brought a lot of shock to the stock market.

The first to bear the brunt were those who held Caijiagou stocks. Since the fraudulent accounts were exposed, the stock price has plummeted, from 20 taels of silver, to one after another. What is even more frightening is that no matter how low the price is, no one will ever buy it.

Buying up and not buying down is an eternal truth of the stock market.
