Chapter 22 Escape
"In the hands of the people's daughter, there is a blood letter written by her father before he died, which lists Feng Weirin's crimes one by one, and asks the emperor to take a look!" Tang Yuji said.
"Hmph, it was the official who single-handedly straightened Tang Feng back then, but how do you know that he didn't deliberately write such a bloody letter because he had a grudge against the official, spraying people with blood?!" Feng Weirin said disdainfully, the killing intent in his eyes was fully revealed.
Tang Yuji glared at Feng Weilin fiercely, then turned his head to look at Liang Yinhao on the dragon chair, and said, "Your Majesty, in addition to the blood letter of the people's daughter, there is also evidence that can prove that what the people's daughter said is true. ”
Liang Yinhao glanced at Feng Weirin coldly, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Oh?" What is it? ”
"My father once told the people that because the iron sand in Lingbei is the most pure, the military supervision department of the dynasty has always used the iron sand in Lingbei to cast blades. However, in the third year of Yude, most of the mountain roads in Lingbei collapsed due to floods, and it was difficult for workers to transport them, so the imperial court strictly controlled the amount of iron sand in Lingbei that year. In order to seek personal gain and increase the production of weapons, Feng Weirin secretly ordered people to dig iron sand from Lingnan to forge those weapons that were illegally sold. Tang Yuji's voice was soft and delicate, but every word was like a heavy blunt hammer, leaving a muffled sound in the hearts of those present. However, the iron sand in Lingnan is not like the iron sand in Lingbei, which not only contains a large number of impurities, but also mixes a lot of brass, and the blades cast naturally cannot achieve the superior effect. ”
The emperor urged unhappily: "Tell the point! ”
Tang Yuji said: "If you want to separate brass from the iron sand, it is not only complicated, but also extremely difficult to operate, in order to be able to cast more weapons, Feng Weirin secretly stole a copy of the "General Essentials of the Martial Arts" from the classic book pavilion in the palace, which clearly records the detailed process of how to separate copper and iron, and this book is now hidden in Feng Weilin's mansion!" ”
Feng Weirin was stunned for a moment, and said in a high-pitched voice: "Nonsense, this official has never seen this book, so how can he steal it?!" ”
The Queen Mother's eyes flowed, and the wise light flashed in her eyes, and she said slowly: "There is no basis for what you say, the emperor will know if he sends someone to search the Feng Mansion!" ”
Liang Yinhao lowered his eyes and secretly wondered: Feng Weirin has always been his confidant, and he doesn't believe that Feng Weirin would do such a bold and dirty thing. But if this Tang Feng's daughter tells the truth, then Feng Weilin will lose his life, I am afraid that it will also cause turmoil in the hearts of the entire military department, and at the same time, it will also affect his real power in the military department. Liang Yinhao pondered silently for a moment, then looked at Feng Weilin's confident expression at this time, and finally called Yin Zheng, who was waiting outside the hall, and ordered: "You take someone to check Feng Shangshu's mansion, be sure to search me carefully!" ”
Yin Zheng immediately took the order and retreated. The hall was silent, and the oppressive atmosphere seemed to make people breathless, and everyone was waiting with bated breath for the results to be revealed.
The forbidden army also moved very fast, but in half an hour, Yin Zheng hurried back, and his sweaty face was full of anxiety. "Returning to the emperor, Weichen was ordered by the emperor to search Lord Feng's mansion with the soldiers of the forbidden army. A worn-out page was found in Lord Feng's study, because the paper was hidden in the compartment of the bookshelf, it was extremely hidden, so it took some effort to look through it, and the emperor was invited to take a look. ”
Feng Weirin looked at the yellowed paper in Yin Zheng's hand in a panic and muttered, "Impossible! How is this possible?! ”
Liang Yinhao took the yellowed and wrinkled page and read it carefully, but his face became more and more ugly, and when he raised his eyes again, his eyes were full of anger and murderous intent. "This does record the process of how to separate the copper and iron, Feng Qing's family, what is the purpose of hiding this in the mansion?"
Feng Weirin kept shaking his head, looked at Yin Zheng and Tang Yuji on the side in disbelief, pointed at them and shouted, "Impossible! That's impossible! It was you who deliberately hid this false testimony in the government's mansion, and it was you who united to frame the officials! ”
When Yin Zheng heard Feng Weirin accuse himself like this, he immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Emperor Mingjian, there were dozens of forbidden army soldiers in total when the Feng Mansion was searched, how could Weichen secretly do things in front of everyone's eyes?" What's more, Wei Chen and Lord Feng have always had no grievances and no enmity, so how could they frame Lord Feng? ”
"It is naturally impossible for the Yin Qing family to deliberately frame the military department Shangshu." The emperor soothed, looking at Feng Weirin's gaze like a sharp sword, cutting people's hearts. "Is there anything else Feng Qing's family has to explain?"
Tang Yuji kowtowed his head again, and his delicate little face was already crying. "Your Majesty! If it weren't for him, Feng Weilin, who was a thief, why did he steal the "General Essentials of the Martial Scriptures" and secretly tear off one of the pages and hide it in the mansion? The father of the people's daughter died unjustly, and I hope that the emperor can see everything and return the innocence of the father! ”
At this time, Feng Weilin gradually showed a crazy color, and he spoke incoherently regardless of the occasion. "You fart! Tang Feng is innocent! It's all fake, fake!! The weapons in King Rui's Mansion are all cast by the Military Supervision Department with the iron sand of Lingbei, where did the iron sand of Lingnan come from? ! ”
Like a thunderbolt across the sky, the hall could clearly hear the sound of some ministers gasping, but other than that, no one dared to whisper, everyone looked at Feng Weirin standing in the hall like a monster. Feng Weirin also realized at this moment that if he didn't confess himself, his face instantly turned almost transparent, and the despair in his eyes became more and more intense, and finally his legs collapsed to the ground, begging for mercy: "The emperor spares his life!" ”
The Queen Mother glanced at Feng Weirin on the ground with disdain, and then looked at Liang Yinhao with deep meaning. "It seems that the ins and outs of this matter are already clear, and the emperor will definitely make a judgment." Although the Queen Mother's words were euphemistic, the deep meaning of the words was already obvious, she wanted to tell Liang Yinhao: This matter has nothing to do with King Rui, the emperor should release him quickly.
Liang Yinhao closed his eyes tiredly, and only said in a deep voice after a long time: "Take Feng Weirin down, put him in the prison, and wait for the fate." As for King Rui... The matter has nothing to do with him, and the ban will be lifted with immediate effect. ”
Seeing that the emperor was about to get up and retreat, Wei Ming stopped him loudly: "Your Majesty, wait!" Since this matter has been confirmed to have nothing to do with King Rui, what is the chiseled 'ironclad evidence' in the hands of Master Tong of the Criminal Department? ”
Tong Yuan's heart sank. Since the Queen Mother came to the Showa Palace, Tong Yuan's heart has been going up and down, and after Feng Weilin confessed, he was even more uneasy, for fear that the evidence of his framing King Rui would be discovered. But later, seeing that the emperor had no intention of pursuing the criminal department, he guessed that he had escaped, but he didn't expect that Wei Ming still refused to let himself go. Tong Yuan scolded secretly in his heart, and said hesitantly: "Your Majesty....Xu was because the records of the capital port were accidentally mistaken, so he almost misunderstood His Royal Highness King Rui." ”
"Something went wrong? This matter involves the prince of the DPRK and China, and it is a matter of great importance, so the investigation and trial of the criminal department should be extremely cautious. If something happens, it's too child's play to get away with a sentence of 'accidental', right? ”
Tong Yuan was thinking about how to refute the explanation, but at this time, he heard an angry roar from the emperor overhead. "That's it! Shut up! I don't want to hear any more words from any of you, and I'll get out of the Showa! ”
