I'm really not doing business

Chapter 10

Zhang Juzheng was standing in front of the Yamen of Fusi in Beizhen, next to him was Lu Tiaoyang, the second assistant, and behind them were the members of Sanfasi.

Ge Shouli, Zuodu censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Wang Zhigao, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, Li Youzi, Luo Fengxiang and other courtiers, as well as Zhu Xixiao, commander in chief of Jinyiwei behind the Ming emperor, and Feng Bao, governor of the East Factory, jointly constituted the joint trial of the three jurisprudence departments. of the jury.

The Ministry of Punishment receives the name of punishment from all over the world, the Metropolitan Procuratorate is in charge of picketing, Dali Temple is in charge of refuting and rectifying, and the three judicial divisions gather together.

In order to welcome the emperor, Jinyiwei Beizhen Fusi Yamen has carried out an unprecedented cleaning. The windows are bright and clean, and even the corners of the walls have been brushed with a pig hair brush and sandalwood is lit. This supposedly gloomy Yamen has finally become The sun is shining a little bit.

Zhu Yijun sat in the back hall of the yamen. He was the emperor, so he had to sit in the middle of the front hall. Then who would judge the case?
The criminal Wang Zhanglong was brought out from the sky prison, and the two criminals in red robes and flying fish suits were in charge of escorting them. , dare not have any slack.

Commander-in-Chief Zhu Xixiao has only one request, absolutely nothing can happen in Beizhen Fusi Yamen.

"Crack! The perpetrator, Wang Zhanglong, come here quickly. Who ordered you to go to Qianqing Palace to assassinate?!" Zhu Xixiao is the official in the court, and this is the Fusi Yamen in Beizhen. Naturally, he is in charge of presiding over the case. Zhu Xixiao clapped his hands in fright. Xingmu, majestic, sternly asked.

Wang Zhanglong knelt on the ground, seemed to be frightened by the gavel, and said tremblingly: "Ti Shuai, the grass people just went into the palace to steal something, if it's an assassination, please ask Ti Shuai to investigate."

"Public evidence!" Zhu Xixiao shouted loudly.

Two knives, one long and one short, were presented for Wang Zhanglong's assassination. The short one was the dagger used to assassinate the emperor, and the long one was the ring-headed knife that cut Zhang Hong, which was extremely sharp.

A bed board of the emperor's dragon bed was replaced, and there was a trace of a hole inserted by a dagger on it. After Zhu Yijun got up, Zhang Hong asked Zhang Jing to lead someone to remove the bed board and replace it with a new one. The Yamen of the Justice Department.

Zhu Xixiao sneered and said: "You brought the murder weapon into the palace and went straight to Qianqing Palace. When the internal officer Zhang Hong arrested you, I was there in person. Where did you steal the property? You can't say that you don't like anything in Qianqing Palace." Let’s go! How dare you argue with ironclad evidence!”

Wang Zhanglong rolled his eyes, knelt on the ground, and said loudly: "The grass people are soldiers of the Qi family army!"

"Caomin was confused for a while, and he believed what the villain said. It was the eunuch in the palace who wanted Caomin to enter the palace to assassinate, saying that he wanted to scare the little emperor, so that he could teach him how powerful he is."

"Nonsense!" Zhu Xixiao sneered and shouted loudly, "Bring witnesses!"

Several witnesses were brought to the front of the hall one by one to identify Wang Zhanglong, and the profile of Wang Zhanglong's life as a servant in Beijing was extremely perfect.

Wang Zhanglong is a gambler. He lost money in gambling and borrowed a lot of debt from the gambling house. Was caught by Ti Qi and came to the sky prison? !

It is true that the Tiqi have lost a lot of power, but that is also in the court. In the eyes of the owner of the gambling house, Tiqi is the guard of the emperor's class. Entering the Fusi Yamen in Beizhen is like entering the sky prison , Those are all traitors and evils of Zhu Jiu Clan.

Wang Zhanglong had to pay off his gambling debts, otherwise he would be blocked by debt collectors. Originally, he wanted to eunuch himself into the palace, but sold himself for money to recoup his money. After searching around, he found a way to enter the palace. The business is done.

Zhang Juzheng sat firmly, he read the file, Tiqi handled the case, he was still so vigorous and resolute, relaxed and relaxed, but all cases were iron cases, every word Tishuai said was nailed with every spittle.

During the Jiajing period, when Lu Bing was the commander-in-chief, Fusi's Tiqi in Beizhen was so popular that even Dongchang had to avoid it by three points, and he was deeply trusted by Emperor Jiajing.

Few people impeached Lu Bing for arrogating power and framing. Even the group of officials who like to find fault the most can only say that Lu Bingshan caters to his wishes.

As a secret service department of the emperor who specializes in dirty work, Lu Bing was only scolded for catering to his wishes, which is already an extremely high evaluation.

There are seventeen Jinyiwei, one of which is full of 1120 people, and Jinyiwei has a total of 19040 people. The Beizhen Fusi Jinyiwei, which has the authority to detect criminals, is called Tiqi.

Tiqi had no more than 600 people at most, but he has always been professional in handling cases, which can be called sharp claws and sharp teeth.

Timing yellow is reserved for the emperor.

Tiqi's ability to handle cases is still there, but after Lu Bing's death, in just a few decades, Tiqi's status has been deteriorating. Who will make the eunuch closer to the emperor?

Zhu Xixiao was shocked again, and asked, "Who asked you to pretend to be a soldier of the Qi family army? You recruited them truthfully, but if you make false statements, you will be punished!"

Seeing that his identity had been exposed, Wang Zhanglong knelt on the ground and cried and said, "Feng Bao and Feng Dadang in the palace told me to say that! He said that he asked me to pretend to be a soldier of the Qi family army, and then slandered Chen Hong. He promised me wealth and honor." , Said that even if I was caught, it would be dealt with by Dongchang, and when the time comes, send me out!"

"Ti Shuai, Ming Gongs, it was Feng Bao and Feng Dadang who taught me to say that!"

As soon as this remark came out, several ministers discussed and whispered to each other.

Feng Bao did have a motive to give Qi Jiguang shit.

Qi Jiguang is under Zhang Juzheng's door, if Qi Jiguang is unlucky, Zhang Juzheng will also be unlucky.

Feng Bao and Zhang Juzheng were indeed political alliances, but Zhang Juzheng was first and foremost a civil servant, a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, and the chief assistant.

Gao Gong wanted to seize the power of the supervisor of ceremonies, and Zhang Juzheng, as the head of the civil service, didn't want to?
Feng Bao, as the head of the palace, took the opportunity to teach and beat Zhang Juzheng, and even forced Zhang Juzheng to be severely investigated, interrogated, and forced Zhang Juzheng to stand with the eunuch because of the relationship with the Qi family army. Get involved.

Feng Bao did have the motive to do so, betting his own life and the life of the little emperor, in exchange for Chen Hong and Gao Gong's death.

Zhu Yijun sat in the back hall and looked at Feng Bao. As he expected, there were indeed unfavorable testimony against Feng Bao.

"I don't have the guts." Feng Bao still didn't change his face, shaking his head and said, the assassin didn't succeed in the assassination, he almost got knocked to death to pass the test, if the emperor really died, he would be a wild dog without a master, and the only way to die One piece.

Zhu Yijun looked at Zhang Hong and said, "Zhang Hong, you go, just say you are Feng Daban and let him recognize you."

Zhang Hong took the order, walked out of the back hall, came to the front hall, and said in a low voice with a flick of the whisk, "You scoundrel, you are rambling, when did our family tell you this?"

Wang Zhanglong looked up and cried loudly: "Feng Daban save me! Feng Daban promised me wealth, why is it different from what he said."

Zhang Hong secretly thought it was a pity, if Wang Zhanglong denied it all outright, or if he had never met him, he would be able to pour a head of dirty water on Feng Bao, he shook his head and said: "Look at our family talking, when will your family become rich! "

"That's what my companion said when he led me into the palace yesterday." Wang Zhanglong raised his head, still insisting that it was Feng Bao's instruction.

Zhang Hong took a few steps forward, squatted down slowly, and said with a sneer: "Our family just put on the red robe yesterday, you did see our family yesterday, and our family is the internal officer who arrested you yesterday! Big dog eyes, take a good look!"

Only then did Wang Zhanglong recognize that it was Zhang Hong who was under the black light yesterday. Wang Zhanglong's expression changed drastically, and he wanted to struggle.

"Several ministers have also seen it. This man is full of nonsense." Zhang Hong stopped talking and went back to the back hall.

"Isn't it true?!" Zhu Xixiao asked again in shock.

Seeing that his lies had been exposed, Wang Zhanglong chose to tell the truth. He only knew that the man in the red robe was the eunuch, so he admitted his mistake.

Zhu Yijun narrowed his eyes and looked at Ge Shouli, the censor of Zuodu. Just now, when Zhang Hong went out from the back hall, Ge Shouli's index finger and middle finger were on the armrest of the grand master's chair, knocking unconsciously. After Wang Zhanglong admitted his mistake, Ge Shouli knocked at the speed Speeded up a bit.

Zuodu Yushizhengsanpin, the head of the Kedao Yanguan, doesn't have this kind of self-cultivation?
Among the foreign ministers present, only Ge Shouli is from the Jin Party.

Chen Hong, Teng Xiang, Meng Chong and other eunuchs were also brought by the fans from Dongchang to Fusi Yamen in Beizhen for further interrogation.

"Chen Hong, do you believe that Gao Gong, the former chief minister of the cabinet, instructed you to do this?" Zhu Xixiao asked everyone's most concerned question.

During the period when Chen Hong was not in power, his life was not going smoothly. His cheeks were fleshless and his eyes were sunken. He knelt on the ground and said weakly: "It is indeed Gao Gong's instigation, and our family has evidence!"

"Stop talking nonsense! Mr. Gao is a minister of the country, and he is a minister of the country. How can you be so aggressive!" Zuo Du Yushi Ge Shouli patted the table Rebuking angrily, he pointed at Chen Hong, his eyes widened, obviously furious.

Wang Zhigao, Shangshu of the Criminal Ministry, pulled Ge Shouli and said, "Why is Zongxian Ge so eager? Let's see his evidence, so what?"

Chen Hongsi looked at Ge Shouli. Ge Shouli, who used to be groveling and would call Chen Gong when he saw her, dared to scold herself now?

Chen Hong sneered, looked at Ge Shouli and said, "There is a letter written by Gao Gong, which was brought into the palace from Caihuying. Our family recognizes his notes, and it was sent to the palace by Li Shi from Gao Gong's family!"

"Our family's death is imminent, why bother to bite, this Gao Gong's family member Li Shi is still in the capital, if you arrest him, you can find out as soon as you ask."

"You group of overbearing ministers, relying on Xuan Da Governor Wang Chonggu, occupying Altan Khan's business and plundering wantonly, none of you can escape!"

The feeling of losing power is worse than death. Since there is an opportunity, Chen Hong certainly wants to make a comeback. Since the matter has been exposed, but once he dies, he is a eunuch and only has a few adopted sons. What is he afraid of?Of course he wants to drag people into the water.

"Where is the handwriting?" Zhu Xixiao frowned, the case files from Dongchang did not mention the handwriting and Li Shi.

Only then did Chen Hong shook his head and said, "It's buried under the jujube tree behind the latrine at home in the corridor."

Zhu Yijun looked at Feng Bao, Feng Bao didn't know such crucial evidence?
Feng Bao said helplessly: "Your Majesty, when Chen Hong entered Dongchang, he kept silent and wanted to die. I also learned from Meng Chong and Teng Xiang that Gao Gong was instigating him. Even if Chen Hong died, he would not let him die." I did half a cent of the work, but yesterday I dug three feet into the ground, and there was too little time to find any evidence."

"I'm going to send someone to fetch the evidence."

Chen Hong knew he was going to die, so how could he give the evidence to Feng Bao?Feng Bao failed to protect His Majesty and lost his trust. How could Chen Hong let him do a good job?
"Liu Shouyou, bring two hundred horses and arrest Li Shi. Luo Bingliang, you come with Feng Dadang to collect the documentary evidence." Zhu Xixiao hesitated for a while, and let Luo Bingliang, a thousand households subject to punishment, follow Feng Bao to collect the documentary evidence to save money. trouble.

"Ge Zongxian won't go with you?" Lu Tiaoyang, the second assistant, reminded Ge Shouli that the case was being handled by the outer court, and Jin Yiwei went to someone, and someone from the palace went away. Arch is going to be unlucky.

Lu Tiaoyang put his hands in his hands and asked suddenly: "Ge Zongxian didn't mention it, did he know that Gao Gong's family Li Shi is still in the capital? Or did he know that this handwritten letter is true?"

Ge Shouli stood up, shook his sleeves and said, "Nonsense! I'll go with them!"

The documentary evidence came back quickly. The Ministry of Criminal Justice, Beizhen Fusi, and Dongchang all had handwriting appraisers, and various forces surrounded the handwritten notes and began to appraise them.

Before the sun set, Li Shi was arrested and came back. He had to be guided when entering the city. People who are not from the capital, and where to seek refuge, are all written on the guides. He ran away, and he could find someone by following the clues.

Li Shi was dragged in by the Tiqis. His legs were so frightened that he couldn't even kneel steadily. He just collapsed on the ground and said tremblingly: "Ti Shuai looks... the grass people entered the city because they were sent away by Duke Gao , had no choice but to return to Beijing to seek refuge with relatives, what crime did this... grassroots... and why was he caught in the prison?"

The Ming Dynasty banned slaves. In order to circumvent the laws of the Ming Dynasty, the big families of the Ming Dynasty accepted servants in the name of family members. Therefore, it was reasonable for Li Shi to return to Beijing to join his relatives and friends because his family was dismissed and he had no support.

The clerks of Beizhen Fusi Yamen and the Ministry of Punishment put the evidence in front of the hall, bowed their heads and said, "Ti Shuai, the handwriting is fake!"

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Chen Hong was shocked when he heard that, and wanted to break free from Fan Zi's hand, but was pressed tightly to the ground by the two Fan Zi. While struggling, Chen Hong shouted loudly: "I can recognize that high-arched character even in ashes! It can't be fake!"

Ge Shouli heaved a sigh of relief, clapped his hands together, rubbed his hands together and said, "I know that someone will set the blame on someone! Although Mr. Gao is anxious and righteous, he will definitely not do such a thing!"

　Follow-up involves recommendation arrangements, please don't keep books.Lu Bing was in charge of the Fusi Yamen in Beizhen, and handled many cases, but the cases were all iron cases that made people speechless.Lu Bing saved Jiajing's life twice. He is Jiajing's hardcore, the guardian of the emperor, and the gate god of Jiajing. Compared with the Songjiang Mansion, it is really... Please support me, woo! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
