Wait until the soldiers put the weapons they had found on the ground, and the officials of the Salt Class Office, including Chen Huaijing, looked as if they were earthy.

The young shopkeeper had previously admitted to trafficking in private salt in public. Now he was charged with privately harboring military weapons and resisting arrest. It is legal to sentence Chen Xi to behead him.

Chen Xi shouted: "It is because of the existence of such a profitable business that the salt price in our Ming Dynasty has become high, and the people can't even afford to eat salt. When the government arrested the government, they even refused to arrest them with weapons. They were extremely evil... and executed immediately!"

"Slow down!" Chen Huaijing shouted loudly, "Mr. Shen, as the governor of the three provinces, you have no right to deal with it without authorization before the conviction of the Ministry of Justice, and you have no right to execute public execution!"

Chen Xi smiled coldly: "Whether you have authority is left to the court to decide. Now I want to ask you to kill such thieves, and see who dares to stop them and kill them!"

"Ah, it's unfair... Brother-in-law, save me quickly. I'm innocent, this is not a private..."

Halfway through his words, he heard a "puff" sound. The man's body and head were different, and his round head bounced up on the ground like a Cuju. He rolled up his sword and the blood-stained sword shone brightly in the sun.

"Good kill!"

Some of the onlookers screamed in fear, and some applauded. After all, Chen Xi said that these unscrupulous merchants were the culprits that the prices of salt remained high in the Ming Dynasty. The people did not care whether they were real or not, but knew that these were what the dignified governor said in public, and they would definitely not be wrong.

Chen Huaijing was already unable to stand firm at this time and needed the support of the people next to him to stabilize his body. His head was covered in cold sweat.

Chen Xi walked to the third shopkeeper... This was an old man with a gray beard about 60 years old, his face was filled with fear. Chen Xi smiled and asked, "Official salt, or private salt!"

This old shopkeeper is just a errand. When he saw his shopkeeper beheaded by a knife and axe, he was already in vain. Now he knelt on the ground and kowtowed one after another:

"Sir, it is official salt, it is official salt... We have the salt indicia of official salt. These salts were raised from the salt field with salt indicia... It is definitely not private salt! Please observe clearly!"

Chen Huaijing said angrily: "Have the government ever given you salt entries?"

Chen Xidao: "Is Chen Tiju going to interfere with the case trial of this official? Please ask Chen Tiju to rest later and not disturb the case trial."

"Get orders!"

At this moment, Chen Huaijing no longer had the majesty of being a fifth-rank salt class stern, and was "invited" by several officers and soldiers within ten feet of the Chenxi River.

At this moment, Chen Huaijing knew that nothing was useful, so he could only hope that the governor and the envoy could help him.

Chen Xi continued to investigate the case and said in a deep voice: "You said there is an official salt and salt introduction, but it is an official salt introduction. Can there be a salt introduction as evidence?"

The old shopkeeper was trembling all over, and his teeth were fighting, "Sir, the salt is in the cellar under the warehouse. There is no saying that the villain dares to deceive the adults, please observe clearly."

In the Daming Salt Class System, salt quotations are used for salt extraction, and it is also a certificate for salt merchants to transport salt through the state and the province as a pass. Only if salt is quotations are considered official salt, but if salt is not quotations, even if salt is proposed from the salt field, it can only be considered private salt.

Chen Xi waved his hand and someone immediately went to search for the salt ray.

According to the old shopkeeper's location of the salt entries, the bundles of salt were found soon. The total number was superimposed, and there were not only 5,000 small entries, but 20,000 to 30,000 entries. This means that these salt entries will be used to extract salt from the salt field for sale in the future.

Chen Xi took out the salt spiral and looked at it, and said, "It's strange. This is the salt spiral of the summer salt of the 15th year of Hongzhi... Isn't it said that the salt spiral of the summer salt this year has not been issued in the Salt Class Tingju Department yet? Why did so many suddenly appear here? Chen Tiju..."

Before, Chen Xi sent Chen Huaijing aside and did not interfere with his trial. Now that he has obtained the conclusive evidence of his crime, he wants to question Chen Huaijing carefully.

Chen Xidao: "Didn't Chen Tiju ask his official to send someone to the Guangdong Salt Course Training Department to take a good inventory of the salt entries? Now it seems that this is indeed necessary. Could it be that the thief took advantage of the internal precautions of the Salt Course Training Department to steal the salt entries? Come, go to the Guangdong Salt Course Training Department, seal all the salt entries and take them back to the Governor's Office to investigate!"

"Yes, sir!"

The two hundred officers and soldiers from Guangdong Zuowei who were dispatched to the dock immediately rectified and rushed towards the direction of the Salt Class Training Department.

Chen Huaijing knew that the disaster was coming at this time, and Chen Xi had already planned to do all this. He was completely kept in the dark and thought to himself: "I was unprepared when I went out today, and I went to the appointment in a daze. Could this bright future befallen the summer salt and salt? I hope Zhang Fantai can save me!"

Chen Huaijing quickly defended: "Mr. Shen, it is better to ask the people from the yamen of the governor and the yamen to come and make a statement."

Chen Xi asked in surprise: "This official inspects the salt administration of the three provinces, which is the job he appointed by His Majesty. Could it be that the Guangdong Salt Course Division has issued salt intake on weekdays, and has to have any behind-the-scenes transactions with the Guangdong vassal yamen? It's ridiculous! Come here, please ask Chen Tiju and all the colleagues of the Salt Course Division to go back to the Governor's Office. I want to ask the case personally!"

At this moment, Chen Huaijing and his men were no longer able to ride in the official sedan chair, but were put into a carriage by three or two, and sent back to the inn as prisoners.

Chen Xi got back on his horse, and the group returned to the city in a mighty manner. The people all followed him. The people who came to hear the news continued to rise. Many people applauded after hearing about Chen Xi's feat.

Chen Xi had just returned to the inn and found that the governor's envoy, the inspector's envoy and the commander's envoy were waiting there. It was mainly because Zhang Yuanying and others heard that Chen Xi was making a big fuss in the salt administration, sealing up the warehouse where the smuggling official salt was piled up outside the city, and killed another leader who bought and sold private salt. Now even the subordinates of Guangdong Salt Class Promotional Office were detained and were about to be promoted to the court to determine the case soon. Zhang Yuanying and Lin Tingxuan could no longer sit still and came to ask questions immediately. Even Li Che, who wanted to stay out of the matter, had to show up.

This was the second time after the Governor and the heads of the Third Division gathered in the Nanhai County Government, they met directly in front of the temporary Governor's Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government Government

Because Chen Xi grabbed the braid, Zhang Yuanying no longer had the right to speak in front of Shen Xi. The errand that he had argued with Chen Xi fell on the censor Lin Tingxuan.

When Chen Xi brought the officials of the Third Division into the lobby of the official office, before he sat down, Lin Tingxuan stepped forward and advised: "Shen Zhongcheng, this salt class matter is of great importance. There are illegal vendors in the local area forged salt inducement. Lord Shen investigated and dealt with, and must not involve the salt class training department. If the salt class cannot be collected on time this year and delayed the use of troops in the northwest, can Lord Shen take it? "

Chen Xi just got the news that it was the Oirats who were originally driven to the west of the desert by the Tatars after the civil strife of the Dayan tribe, and they were ready to move again. In the middle of the year, they raided Hami. The Hami Guard, which had just been recovered for a few years, and the Anding Guard and other places were startled three times a day, which made Emperor Hongzhi very angry.

At present, the imperial court is discussing sending troops to block the Wala people's way to advance east, but there is no result yet. This is also chosen by Lin Ting to make a fuss.

Lin Tingxuan spoke righteously, as if the salt courses could not be collected in Guangdong, which would affect the imperial court's use of troops in the northwest.

At this time, the officers and soldiers who searched the Guangdong Salt Course Division had returned to the Governor's Office. All the salt entries were brought back. Chen Xi took out two salt entries and presented them to Lin Tingxuan: "Lin Nietai said it was an illegal vendor forged salt entries. You should take a look at which of these two salt entries are real and which one is forged?"

Lin Tingxuan held two salt rays in his hand and observed them repeatedly, and found that they were exactly the same, no difference from the salt rays he had seen before.

Seeing that Lin Ting had not been able to reply for a while, Chen Xi took the salt ingot back and said, "The salt ingot is specially approved by the Ministry of Revenue. It was transported south through Jiangbei. It was escorted by officers and soldiers in the middle, but it was not lost. This official is sending someone to count the number of salt ingots in the salt ingots department. I believe there will be a result soon..."

After Chen Xi finished speaking, he stopped talking. After about half an hour, he was invited to calculate the number of salt entries in the salt entries in the salt entries in the salt entries in the salt entries and came out and reported: "Several adults, a total of 83,400 salt entries in the salt entries in the salt entries in the salt entries are 83,400. The inventory is correct!"

Chen Xi looked at Lin Tingxuan, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth: "What do you say about Lin Nietai?"

Lin Tingxuan glanced at Zhang Yuanying and continued to argue: "Maybe the salt guild was replaced by someone when the Ministry of Revenue was transferred to Jiangbei, or someone from the Ministry of Revenue privately opened a salt guild... After this salt was introduced to Guangdong, the Salt Course Training Department had not been issued yet. What is the relationship between the salt guild on the market and the Salt Course Training Department?"

If Chen Xi only loses salt entries or someone forges salt entries, there is no way to decide the crimes of officials from the Yankee Department, because no one knows which yamen the extra salt entries came from. Chen Xi said it was forged by the Salt entries, and the Salt entries could also argue that it was actually a private opening of the higher entries, or someone forged them, and we had no idea about this.

Lin Ting's reason for choosing this is very reasonable. We cannot hold the Salt Class Chief's responsibility just because there are fake salt indices!

If it were someone else, he almost steadily rescued Chen Huaijing and others with his verbal advantage, but what he met Chen Xi today, and Chen Xi clapped his hands: "Lin Nietai said it well, the reason is sufficient, it's really a waste of water!"

"snort."

Lin Tingxuan snorted softly, with a little contempt in his tone, as if he was saying, "Young man, you are a little tender, but he said, "I am just a statement based on facts, and the facts have finally proved that the matter has nothing to do with the Salt Class Office."

"oh!?"

A mocking smile appeared on the corner of Chen Xi's mouth: "Why would you like Lin Nietai? The Guangdong Salt Class Procuratorate, the Salt Field, the Administrator's Office, and the yamen at all levels, and even ordinary people know that the summer salt and salt entries have just arrived in Guangzhou Prefecture this year, but why can anyone use fake summer salt entries to extract official salt from the salt entries and sell them?"

"Does the salt field raise salt without going through the review of the Salt Course Training Department? The officials stationed in the Salt Field have no basic common sense?"

In one sentence, Lin Tingxuan's reasons for his previous defense were broken.

Since you said that this salt entries are fake, even an ordinary person knows that the salt entries of summer salt have not yet come out this year, someone took the summer salt salt to the salt field to extract a large number of official salts. The salt seized alone was as many as 5,000 small entries, and countless were transported away in advance.

Guangdong Yanjiaya is unlucky in charge!

Lin Tingxuan was speechless.

Originally, Lin Tingxuan exonerated Chen Huaijing and others. Now it seems that not only Chen Huaijing will be questioned, but even the people in the salt farms below may also be implicated.

Chenxi Road: "As the governor of the three provinces, I have the responsibility to supervise the local salt courses' bad policies. Even if I lack the Salt Course Supervision Department, can't I transfer the salt in full to complete the summer salt outage and salt course adjustment this year?"

Lin Tingxuan said with a dark face: "Shen Zhongcheng, you are not from the Yankee Prosecution. How can you bear such responsibilities? If there is any mistake, how can you explain it to the court?"

Chen Xi thought to himself, you think too much about this salt course supervisor. What I lack now is the support and cooperation of local governments. You set up straits for me everywhere, making it impossible for me to perform my official duties with satisfaction. If I can obtain the same resources as Chen Huaijing, I will definitely do better than him.

Chen Xi shouted: "Come here, take down all the people and others from Guangdong Salt Course Training and Quotation Division, waiting for the court to submit! As for Salt Course Training and Quotation Division, all the salt guides will be left in the Salt Course Training and Quotation Division, and no one is allowed to transfer them without authorization!"
