Under the control of strong loneliness and fear, some of the four major sea merchants in Zhejiang can finally be unable to withstand it.

This move is a chain reaction.

The other three major families were also implicated.

Once the crime of communicating with the Japanese is confirmed, it is a death sentence.

Zhu Wan, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, immediately ordered the four families to be confiscated.

I don’t know if I didn’t copy it, but I was really shocked when I copied it.

In addition to countless gold, silver and treasures in the mansions of the four major families, there are also Japanese swords and other objects.

This further confirmed their crimes.

How can normal people collect Japanese swords?

Zhu Wan ordered these property to be filled into the yamen office's public treasury, and all the families of the four major families were arrested and imprisoned.

He wrote another letter to the Holy Emperor to report the situation and request the Holy Emperor to sect.

After this combination of punches, Zhejiang Province could no longer sit still.

There are many families that connect with the Japanese, and the four major families are just representatives.

Zhu Wan's actions can be said to be a warning to the monkey and just a statement.

If anyone dares to make trouble at this critical moment, Zhu Wan doesn't mind raising the butcher's knife again.

The Zhejiang officialdom was naturally shocked.

Originally, they thought they could bring Zhu Wan down in one fell swoop, so they decided to write a letter together.

But now it seems that Zhu Wan not only has a deep background, but also has a back-up.

Look at those sea merchant families, it's really miserable.

At this time, no one dares to speak to these families.

Even though they have received countless benefits on weekdays, they can only dare to become turtles with their heads.

When the news reached the capital, Emperor Jiajing was very surprised when he learned about Zhu Wan's behavior.

He was already disliked the unjust act of collusion between officials and businessmen and communicating with Japanese troops. He was just because there was no evidence to be made clear.

Now Zhu Wan has done everything he can't say and do, which makes Emperor Jiajing feel very comfortable.

After some thought, Emperor Jiajing issued an order to kill Zhu Wan immediately to kill the maritime merchants involved in the case to serve as a warning to you.

As for those maritime merchants, they were exiled for three thousand miles.

This punishment is terrible.

Emperor Jiajing wanted to let people know the court's determination to forbid the sea.

As for those who collude with Japanese pirates and elbows, they are not worthy of being his people at all.

The emperor's imperial edict supported Zhu Wan and made a final conclusion on this Southeast case.

At this point, no one dared to write a letter to impeach Zhu Wan again, because they knew very well that Zhu Wan was just the emperor's mouthpiece, and the emperor himself was the one who really wanted to move the maritime business clerk.

Yan Dang often takes these maritime merchants' money on weekdays, but now he still pretends to be deaf and mute, and he has nothing to do with it.

For Yan Song, he would not stand up and express his opinion as long as it did not involve his vital interests.

In this way, those ministers who were "advice" became eggplants beaten with frost.

Not only did he get a scepter in vain, he has not gained fame yet.

This is really funny.

...

...

But when the imperial edict was passed to Hangzhou, Zhu Wan was moved to tears.

The Holy Emperor trusted him so much that he chose to support him when he was most dangerous.

This moved Zhu Wan very much.

With a king and father like this, how could he not devote himself to his life until his death?

The emperor's will is very clear, and Zhu Wan just needs to do it.

He immediately ordered the heads of the four major families and the main culprits to be clear and honest.

The poor heads of the four families did not know who was the traitor until they died.

The heads of these four people were cut off and were not buried with the bodies. Instead, they were hung on the walls of Hangzhou to show public displays.

The purpose of Zhu Wan doing this is of course to warn future generations, and those who have communicated with the Japanese will end up like this.

The government will never tolerate it!

As for those families, they were naturally exiled, so that they would not retaliate against them.

What made Zhu Wan most happy was that the government seized a large amount of gold, silver and wealth.

Zhejiang's military pay was already in a hurry, and Zhu Wan was worried about this matter, but now she was smiling happily.

It is definitely Xu Yan's contribution to being able to take down his confession without any bloodshed.

Zhu Wan naturally knew this.

Therefore, he praised Xu Yan very much and even decided to write a letter to seek credit for Xu Yan.

However, this was rejected by Xu Yan.

The boy felt that he was still young and would have opportunities in the future, but he was not in a hurry.

Furthermore, he is not an official after all, so there is no need to compete with Zhu Wan for credit at this time.

As long as Zhu Wan is saved, Xu Yan will win a great victory.

After this incident, Zhu Wan can rest assured at least in the next few years.

After completing a major incident, Xu Yan went to Gushan Academy alone.

Qian Dehong hasn't seen this good disciple for a long time, so he is naturally thinking about it.

After finally meeting, he said with a stern face: "You little brat, I don't know how to meet you as a teacher for so long."

Xu Yan knew that his mentor was joking with him, and he was not angry. He smiled indifferently and said, "Look at what you said, isn't the student important matter? After this is done, I hurried to see you getting old."

Qian Dehong glanced at Xu Yan, and saw that he was carrying a jar of good wine in his hand, so he nodded and said, "You are still thinking about being a teacher. Forget it, give me a cup of it."

Xu Yan knew that Qian Dehong was greedy, and he didn't say anything but pour wine for him.

This is Qian Dehong's favorite Ningbo Soup. Xu Yan has never been willing to drink it after he brought it to Hangzhou, just to win the old man's favor.

Mr. Qian is addicted to alcohol, but after drinking a glass, he feels very happy.

All worries have long been forgotten.

"You really have a kid, even these big rats have a way to deal with them."

"Do your mentor know?"

Xu Yan was a little surprised.

Qian Dehong gave him a blank look and said, "It's hard to make such a big noise, even if you don't know it."

Xu Yan scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly: "Look at what you always say, the students are also considering the Governor."

"You've done a good job."

Qian Dehong nodded as his recognition of Xu Yan.

When he was an official in the court, he looked down on those treacherous villains the most, which was why he offended the powerful and the nobles and ended up being dismissed from office.

Qian Dehong is naturally very pleased that his students are so backbone.

"Governor Zhu is a person who can do great things. It is beneficial to follow him and temper him more."

"Mr. Teacher, students don't know if they should speak or not."

Xu Yan hesitated for a moment and said.

Qian Dehong rolled his eyes and said, "When will my teacher stop letting you speak?"

"Teacher, how confident do you think you are to take the provincial examination with the current talent of your students?"

Qian Dehong thought he was going to ask something, but when he saw that he was asking about the provincial examination, he stroked his beard and smiled, "Why are you anxious now? Don't worry, there will be a whole year left."

The provincial examination, also known as the autumn examination, was held in autumn.

The most recent provincial examination is in August next year.

If you really need to calculate it carefully, it is only June, and there will be a whole year and two months left.

Xu Yan smiled bitterly and said, "Students are not in a clear mind. If you have enough experience, you will give me some advice. Students will pass it once and don't want to make trouble."
