Compared with Shenyang City, the city of Liaoyang City is not that strong, but its defensive capabilities are stronger than that of Shenyang City. The bigger difference from Shenyang City is the prosperity of Liaoyang City. Although it is not as prosperous as the cities in Jiangnan, here Liaodong is also considered a prosperous place with lots of people coming and going, and lots of traffic!

The mansion located in the center of Liaoyang City is the mansion of the governor of Liaodong. It not only occupies a large area, but is also very luxurious. In a yard not far from the governor's house, Wang Chengen is walking back and forth in the yard, holding a A thin piece of letter paper, my brows furrowed tightly.

There were four people standing not far away from Wang Chengen. They were the Xiaosixiao brothers who had come to Liaoyang a long time ago. At this time, these people were looking at Wang Chengen solemnly.

"Look at it, you guys. This is what the Governor just sent." Seeing the letter being handed over to several people, Wang Chengen said in a deep voice.

After several people had finished reading the letter, Wang Chengen said with a serious face: "The Governor said that martial law has been imposed in the capital. The Jin Yiwei side has made big moves. The matter in Liaodong should be almost solved, and then there is the capital side. But we haven't started here yet, so we are very passive. The Governor said that the next court meeting will be held on the 19th, and he wants us to understand the affairs of Liaodong within two days, and then return to the capital to deal with the affairs of the capital. The time is too tight, you have What’s a good idea?”

The four of them looked at each other, a little confused, and finally stood up with a smile, saluted Wang Chengen, and said in a deep voice: "Father, this doesn't seem to be difficult. Since the matter has reached this point, find Yang All you have to do is cooperate with us in arresting people!"

This time, Wang Chengen looked at the four people with a puzzled face, and said somewhat strangely: "What? Have you all investigated the matter clearly?"

The person behind him took an account and said to Wang Chengen with a smile and respect: "Sir, this is an account. It records the number of people who embezzled Liaodong military pay. We have obtained the personal evidence and physical evidence after searching the house. That’s it, although this account was made by us, everything here is true.”

Slowly taking the account book, Wang Chengen turned it over slowly. The more he looked at it, the darker his face became, and the frown became tighter. In the end, Wang Chengen's body was shaking constantly, and his brows became more and more wrinkled!

"Are you sure these are true?" Turning around slowly, Wang Chengen looked at the four people with disbelief on his face, his body trembling constantly.

"Back to father-in-law, we dare to guarantee with our lives that this is true. Not only do they embezzle food and wages, these people also smuggle and collaborate with the enemy. They collude with Yang Yuan, the governor of Liaodong, and trade with the Mongolian slaves every year. The military rations that they have withheld Most of the equipment and military equipment were sold outside the Great Wall, and some were sold to North Korea." He bowed to Wang Cheng'en and said in an affirmative voice with a smile.

Slowly shaking his head, Wang Chengen's face was still full of disbelief. He looked at the four people and asked again quite seriously: "Have you found out whether the capital is involved?"

"Back to my father-in-law, I found out that this is about officials in the capital. Some have evidence, and some have no evidence. But I believe that as long as the house of the person who just copied the account book is searched, the evidence will be found!" Laughing Si The tone of his smile remained unchanged, and the words he spoke were also unusually certain.

Taking another account book, Wang Chengen flipped through it slowly. It seemed that with the account book just now, Wang Chengen did not lose much of his composure. After reading it, Wang Chengen sighed deeply, and then asked the four people with a solemn face: "Is everything you said true? This is a head-turning thing!"

"Back to my father-in-law, everything here is true. We four brothers will not joke with our lives. But my father-in-law, I feel that the Jin Yiwei in Shenyang should take action. The one they want to take action must be Yang Yuan, the governor of Liaodong. "Bizhi thinks we should hurry up and not let Jin Yiwei take over anymore. This is why our brothers are so desperate." Xiaosixiao seems to be very patient, his mood does not fluctuate at all, and his tone remains the same. It's plain and simple.

Nodding vigorously, Wang Chengen said in a deep voice: "You guys wait here, gather our people, wait for our family to come back, and our family will go to see Mr. Yang Lianyang, the governor of Liaodong!"

"Father, I still have one more thing to say!" Seeing Wang Chengen was about to leave, Xiaosixiao immediately said loudly.

Looking back at him, Wang Chengen said in a deep voice: "If you have anything to say, just say it!"

"Sir, I think arresting people should be carried out at the same time. We should arrange the arrangements in several places at the same time and then take action. Otherwise, it will be easy to alert the enemy and cause changes!" Xiaosixiao said in a serious voice with a serious look on his face.

"We will discuss the specific action plan with you when we get back, but we definitely don't have enough manpower. We have an imperial edict from the emperor to Governor Yang here, and we will ask Governor Yang to send someone!"

Yang Lian was in a very good mood at this time. He originally wanted to start rectifying the officialdom, but Dongchang was investigating. Originally Yang Lian didn't trust people like Dongchang, but Emperor Tianqi told him not to interfere with Dongchang. Although Yang Lian was unwilling to deal with the matter of these people in Dongchang, he felt a lot more relieved when he saw that these people in Dongchang did not do anything extraordinary.

However, when Yang Lian heard that there was a father-in-law outside asking to see him, Yang Lian still had doubts, but he had to meet him!

Yang Lian was stunned when he saw Wang Chengen walking in. He knew this man. When Emperor Taichang was the prince, this man was the general manager of the palace. How did he come to Liaodong? But Yang Lian had a very strong impression of Wang Chengen. Okay, he walked quickly towards Wang Chengen and said with a smile: "Eunuch Wang, I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't expect that Eunuch Wang also came to Liaodong."

But what Yang Lian didn't expect was that Wang Chengen ignored him at all, and the expression on his face was quite serious. After entering the room, he turned his back to the south and said loudly: "Governor of Liaodong Yang Lian accepts the order!"

Yang Lian was stunned when he heard this. He quickly stopped his smile, lifted up his clothes, knelt down on the ground with a thud, and said loudly: "Your Majesty Yang Lian accepts the order, long live my emperor!"

Without looking at Yang Lian, Wang Chengen took out a yellow scroll from his arms, first raised it above his head, and then slowly unfolded it. He pondered for a moment, and then read loudly: "Emperor Fengtian Chengyun, the edict says: 'Liaodong The situation has far-reaching consequences, and I am quite worried. I have sent Wang Chengen to Liaodong to investigate the case of embezzlement of military pay. Yang Lian, the governor of Liaodong, should do his best to assist. It has become a royal matter, and I appreciate this." After reading, Wang Chengen issued the imperial edict. Putting it on Yang Lian's hand, he said with a smile: "Master Yang, please accept the order and thank me!"

"Your Majesty, Yang Lian, accepts the edict and expresses gratitude. Long live my emperor!" Yang Lian shouted loudly after taking the edict and raising it high above her head.

After Yang Lian finished shouting, Wang Chengen smiled and said: "Master Yang, get up quickly! The ground is cold here!"

Standing up with a smile, Yang Lian complained somewhat: "Eunuch Wang, when did you come to Liaodong? Why didn't you come to see me?"

"Master Yang, we are here in a hurry too! We just arrived yesterday." Wang Chengen smiled at Yang Lian and said helplessly.

Pulling Wang Chengen to sit down, Yang Lian said loudly to the outside: "Come here! Serve tea! Take out my treasured Biluochun!" He looked back at Wang Chengen with a smile, and said with a smile: "I remember Wang Eunuch.

You like this bite, remember correctly?"

"Our family has thanked Master Yang. It's rare that you still remember it after so many years. Our family is really grateful to Master Yang!" Wang Chengen hugged Yang Lian and said with a smile.

"What are you talking about, Eunuch Wang? We had known each other for a long time when the late emperor was still here. It was thanks to Eunuch Wang that Yang was able to be appreciated by the late emperor. It is right that Yang should thank Eunuch Wang!"

Yang Lian still has fresh memories of what happened back then, and it’s quite emotional to talk about it!

Nodding slowly, Wang Chengen said with a smile: "Many things in this world are very wonderful. Mr. Yang is able to leave today because of your ability. Both generations of emperors have praised you very much. In our Ming Dynasty, this is not the case."

It’s rare!”

"Thanks to the Emperor for not giving up, Yang is quite touched!" He motioned to Wang Chengen to drink tea and everyone in the room left. Yang Lian smiled and said: "Eunuch Wang, there are only two of us here, what do you want to say?

Just say it! Since the emperor has issued an imperial edict, this matter is probably not a big deal, right? Yang also heard about the incident in Shenyang City. It seems that the emperor is really planning to rectify Liaodong!"

"The matter is very serious. As for whether the emperor wants to rectify Liaodong, our family doesn't know. But this time our family needs Mr. Yang's help. The matter seems to be a little difficult for Mr. Yang!" As he said, Wang Chengen

While taking out an account book from his arms, it was the first account book Xiaosixiao gave him!

Seeing the seriousness of Wang Chengen's words, Yang Lian's expression suddenly became serious. Without saying anything, he took the account book and turned it over page by page. Unlike Wang Chengen's surprise, Yang Lian's face was full of disbelief.

I was sweating profusely, my body was shaking, and my face was getting uglier and uglier!

After a long time, Yang Lian gently closed the account book and said with disbelief: "Eunuch Wang, are you kidding me? None of the things on it are true, right?"

Slowly shaking his head, Wang Chengen had a very serious expression on his face and said in a serious tone: "Mr. Yang, I know you can't believe it, but these are really true. I didn't believe it when I first saw it.

It’s true, but it’s true.”

Yang Lian stood up suddenly, his whole body trembling uncontrollably, and he almost fell down when he shook his body. After a while, he said in a hoarse voice: "How is this possible? How is this possible? Does the emperor want to punish them? You Dongchang framed them.

Framed?"

"Mr. Yang, pay attention to what you say. We don't care if you say something about our family. But if you slander the emperor, you'd better say it for the last time. This time, our family will pretend that they didn't hear it. If there is another time,

Don't blame our family for turning against each other!" Wang Chengen seemed to be really angry, he came to Yang Lian and scolded loudly.

After a long time, Yang Lian returned to normal, slowly stood up straight, and then gave a deep salute to Wang Chengen, saying in a deep voice: "Eunuch Wang, Yang has lost his composure, and there is something wrong with Eunuch Wang. I hope you will."

Don't take it personally, Eunuch Wang!" In Yang Lian's eyes, Wang Cheng'en is not only a eunuch, but also his benefactor. So many years of ethics told him that it is very inappropriate to treat his benefactor like this!

After helping Yang Lian up, Wang Chengen's expression remained unchanged and was very gloomy. When Yang Lian stood up straight, Wang Chengen said in a deep voice: "Master Yang, our family is a eunuch. We are used to this kind of grievance. What do you think?

We don’t take it seriously if you don’t say a word. But Mr. Yang, our family has to say a few words to you today. Mr. Yang is just a word.

It was the emperor who promoted you to the position of governor of Liaodong in this small military department. Such a promotion is rare, can it be regarded as a super promotion appointment? How does the emperor treat you? Mr. Yang, you can figure it out yourself.

Touch your chest. Now you actually doubt the Emperor. Not only is this not the way to serve as a minister, but it also betrays the Emperor's trust in you!"

"My lord, Yang is so ashamed! I have failed the emperor's great trust in me." Yang Lian really looked ashamed, and even felt ashamed!

Smiling and nodding, Wang Chengen said with considerable satisfaction: "But then again, our family can understand Mr. Yang's mood, and I believe the emperor can understand it too. After all, those people have the same weight in Mr. Yang's heart!

"

Slowly sitting back on the chair, Yang Lian gently opened the account book and said with a wry smile: "Liu An, the governor of Jiliao, was at the same time as Ye Xianggao, and he has a very high reputation in the officialdom! Now Yang is still

Mr. Yang’s boss, why did this make Yang so emotional?

How embarrassing! Wang Huazhen, the prefect of Guangning, is a disciple of Ye Xianggao, the former chief assistant scholar of the cabinet, and his official reputation has always been good. There is also Zhang Yuan, the prefect of Jinzhou, who is also a person with a very good official reputation.

But it’s all here!”

Looking at Yang Lian with a smile, Wang Chengen said playfully: "Master Yang, in addition to having good official reputations, these people should have the same identity, that is, the Donglin Party. Most of the people in this book are Donglin Party members.

Lin Dang, from Liu An, the governor of Jiliao, to Wang Huazhen, the prefect of Guangning, without exception."

"Eunuch Wang is right. They are indeed members of the Donglin Party, but what does that mean?" Yang Lian still couldn't believe it. Could it be that all the people he had trusted and considered his friends for so many years were all members of the Donglin Party?

Such a person?"

"Master Yang, you are also a member of the Donglin Party. Our family knows this matter, and the emperor also knows it. However, this time the emperor still asked you to assist our family in handling the case. Firstly, because you are the governor of Liaodong, and secondly because the emperor wants to

I want to tell you that the Emperor has never doubted you, and the Emperor trusts you!" Although Wang Chengen's words were not many and his tone was not serious, they were deafening to Yang Lian's ears.

After bowing to Wang Cheng'en again, Yang Lian said with a grateful face: "Eunuch Wang, what you said is really enlightening. Yang and my father-in-law will check the authenticity of the matter together. If you have any instructions, just tell me!" (
