    Nodding slowly, Emperor Tianqi didn't say anything, and the room fell into silence.  At this time, everyone knew that Emperor Tianqi was in a bad mood, and no one would touch Emperor Tianqi's brow.  Not long after, footsteps sounded outside. Chen Lin opened the door and walked in. He walked quickly behind Emperor Tianqi and stood respectfully aside.  Behind Chen Lin, three people walked in at a time. The leader was Yangzhou transfer envoy Ding Qianli. Behind Ding Qianli was the Yangzhou magistrate, and then Li Chang.  As soon as they came in, the three people were stunned. They didn't expect that there were so many people in the room.  Seeing Emperor Tianqi sitting on the main seat, everyone was stunned. The Yangzhou magistrate and Li Chang naturally knew Emperor Tianqi. Isn't this the young owner of Longchang Company?  Is that Bai Yu, the biggest litigant in the capital?  But at this time, both of them knew that Emperor Tianqi was extraordinary, and it could be said that it far exceeded their expectations.  Ding Zhuanshi standing at the front was different from these two people. At this time, Ding Zhuanshi was trembling all over and his face was pale.  Cold sweat was pouring down his face, his teeth were constantly clashing, and his body had begun to shake.  "Cough!" Seeing a few people standing there in a daze, Chen Lin rolled his eyes and coughed hard.  Sure enough, the cough had an effect, and he called everyone back. Ding Zhuan, who was standing at the front, had his legs weak and knelt on the ground. He kept kowtowing and said with a trembling voice: "Sinful Minister  Yangzhou transfer envoy Ding Qianli came to see the emperor! Long live my emperor!" This time the Yangzhou magistrate and Li Chang were stunned. How could this happen?  How could the young owner of Longchang Company be the emperor!  The two of them just felt dizzy.  His body immediately collapsed to the ground.  "The guilty minister Yang Xiayu, the prefect of Yangzhou, comes to see the emperor. Long live my emperor!" Yang Xiayu knelt on the ground.  Compared to Ding Qianli, Yang Xiayu seemed even more miserable.  Li Chang on the other side is naturally unwilling to be lonely, but he is also the most afraid person. He is not the stupidest among the three, but his status is the lowest.  On weekdays, he can use money to buy people, and he can be brothers with some officials, but when something really happens, his identity will definitely change to a mere businessman.  No way how much money do you have.  Your identity at this time will not change. In the eyes of the court bosses, you can be killed at any time.  Emperor Tianqi ignored these three people and reached out to take the tea handed over by the two twin maids. Emperor Tianqi took a sip and said: "Jiangnan is indeed a good place, a blessed land. There are too many rich people.  "I only know what being rich is today. I'm so ignorant!" Everyone in the hall listened with open ears. Although Emperor Tianqi's voice was very calm, the people in the hall couldn't help but shudder.  trembling.  No one would think that what Emperor Tianqi said was good. It was obvious that it was irony.  He glanced at the faces of the three people and placed the tea bowl on the table.  He smiled and said to Ding Qianli who was kneeling on the ground: "Ding Qianli, if I remember correctly, you are from Hubei, right? I can't remember which year you were a Jinshi. Am I right?" "Go back to the emperor, guilty minister.  My hometown is Hubei!" Ding Zhuanshi said with his heart trembling and his lips trembling.  He nodded slowly.  Emperor Tianqi smiled calmly, and then said: "You are in your hometown in Hubei. Your father is no longer here, but the old mother Gaotang is still here. Three wives and concubines gave birth to four sons and two daughters for you. Your eldest son has already  I passed the imperial examination, but I failed the imperial examination this year. But your youngest son is only six years old, so he is not very young!" Emperor Tianqi's tone was very kind.  The more Emperor Tianqi spoke, the more Ding Qianli's body trembled. Finally, he kowtowed violently on the ground and cried loudly: "Your Majesty! The guilty minister has been convicted of his crime. If your Majesty wants to kill me, just kill me! My  The old mother is over seventy years old, please let her go!" In the hall, Commander Ding was crying miserably, but no one showed any compassion on their face. Instead, they all had sneers on their lips.  "Okay, don't cry! I'm so upset. You came here for the true imperial edict, don't worry! I will keep my word and will not kill you, let alone your family!  "Emperor Tianqi frowned slightly and took another sip of tea. I don't know since when, Emperor Tianqi liked drinking tea more and more, and the more he drank, the stronger the tea became.  "The Lord is so kind to me, and I will repay Your Majesty's favor even if I am shattered to pieces!" Ding Zhuan envoy was immediately overjoyed and kept kowtowing to the ground, even though his head was covered with blood and he didn't even notice at all.  Nodding slowly, Emperor Tianqi said in a deep voice: "Then I will give you all your family property. I can leave you a hundred acres of fertile land and give you another five thousand taels of silver. Your family can live safely.  . Of course, there are conditions for all this. I understand this. You must cooperate with the investigation and bring all the corrupt officials you know to justice.?Hand it over!  " "Long live the Emperor!  The sinner will always be grateful for GodĄŻs grace!  "Ding Qianli was overjoyed. He kowtowed hard to Emperor Tianqi and cried loudly. After waving his hand, Emperor Tianqi said casually: "Stand aside!  I hope you will repent well in the future. In fact, I really want to confiscate your family and exterminate your clan, so you have to pay attention.  If you do anything to disgrace the imperial court or cause harm to the countryside in the future, I will send people to raid your home!  " "The guilty minister dare not!  "Ding Qianli replied aggressively, then bowed and stepped aside. He raised his hand to wipe the blood on his forehead, and suddenly he grimaced in pain. Turning his eyes on the remaining two people, Emperor Tianqi  He took another sip of tea and said in a deep voice: "Li Chang, I know you because you are a good son.  Even if you don't come today, if I want to find out the case, your home will be ransacked.  It will be far more than what it is now, and it seems you are not stupid either!  " "The ordinary people don't know that the beauty of the sky is right in front of their eyes. They really deserve death!  The common people are willing to help find out the illegal salt case, and I hope the emperor can bypass the common people!  "Li Chang also imitated Ding Qianli, kowtowing hard to the ground and crying. "Your Li family is the same as Ding Qianli's family, but there is one thing, your son is going to die.  To rob a girl by force during the day, and to go rogue and frame someone else in order to get her, is truly an unforgivable crime.  I donĄŻt have to pursue your affairs, I hope you understand!  "Emperor Tianqi's voice became more and more severe, but at the end of his words there was a hint of helplessness. He quickly kowtowed vigorously, and Li Chang shouted loudly, with true feelings of joy on his face. At the same time, the Yangzhou magistrate was deeply relieved.  After a breath, it seemed that his life could be saved. It was really not easy, but it was still worth it. Emperor Tianqi turned his attention to Yang Xiayu, the prefect of Yangzhou, and said in a deep voice: "I wrote it very clearly in my original imperial edict.  , only the first person to stand up can be forgiven.  Only Ding Zhuanshi who is here this year can avoid the death penalty, but I saw Li Chang's attitude and thought it was pretty good, so I spared his life.  " "Your Majesty, the guilty minister understands. I hope that the Emperor will show mercy. The guilty minister is willing to take the lead for His Majesty and clean up the officialdom in Jiangnan!  "The Yangzhou magistrate originally thought that by saying this, Emperor Tianqi would definitely get around him, but he didn't expect that Emperor Tianqi didn't speak for a long time. "Do you think I should spare you?  I didn't go into details about those two people, and I certainly won't go into it when I come to you, right?  "Looking at Yang Xiayu, the prefect of Yangzhou, Emperor Tianqi slapped the table and said loudly. The transfer envoys Ding Qianli and Li Chang standing on the side were all stunned. Why did Emperor Tianqi lose his temper at this time? "I tell you, I  I will not spare your life, I will destroy your three clans.  As a local official, corruption is okay, after all, everyone does it.  But as the prefect of Yangzhou, you actually united with others to frame the people under your rule, causing them to suffer injustice.  As a local parent, if you neglect your duties, I will kill you as a warning to others!  "Emperor Tianqi stared at the Yangzhou magistrate with stern eyes and said viciously. Emperor Tianqi's words were like a sledgehammer, hitting the Yangzhou magistrate hard, and he suddenly turned pale and fainted. Emperor Tianqi curled his lips in disdain, and Emperor Tianqi said to  Dang Han on the side said: "Drag this man down and keep him under strict guard. Don't let him die!  " "Yes, Your Majesty!  "Dang Han answered respectfully, then walked out and found two guards in royal robes, who took off the clothes of the Yangzhou magistrate. Then he dragged him down like a dog. "Yang Aiqing, I leave the matter here to you.  , you can go to Yangzhou government office later!  There, the cases that need to be tried will be tried, the people will be given an explanation, and then a notice will be issued to prevent the people from panicking too much!  "Emperor Tianqi turned his eyes to Yang He aside and said in a deep voice. Nodding slowly, Emperor Tianqi looked at Ding Qianli and Li Chang and said seriously: "What are you supposed to do?  Don't make anything unusual, don't show the slightest flaw.  Your head is placed on your own neck. If you don't want it, you will really take it off!  " "Don't worry, Your Majesty, we will definitely keep it secret and make absolutely no mistakes!"  "The two people quickly knelt down and saluted, and said respectfully. Looking at Yuan Keli on the side, Emperor Tianqi continued: "Yuan Aiqing, draft an imperial edict for me to send Xu Xianchun, who is in charge of the Beizhen Prefecture and is a fellow Jinyiwei, to Nanjing.  In addition, let Dongchang send people to let Wei Chao make a good choice, and don't come with wine bags and rice bags!  " "Yes, Your Majesty!  IĄŻll do it now!  "Yuan Keli gave a respectful salute and said in a rather serious tone, but there was still a hint of worry in the middle. He knew who Emperor Tianqi was looking for, and he also knew what Emperor Tianqi was going to do. Finally, Emperor Tianqi's eyes fell on Chen  Lin's body slowlyHe said: "Get ready, let's set off tomorrow, we go to Nanjing!" "Yes, Your Majesty! I will prepare now!" Chen Lin naturally had no objection and said respectfully.  (To be continued. If you like this work, (.) vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.
