Chapter 660: The Imperial Staff
Zhu Di was about to walk out of the hall and go to the harem to see the queen, when Ji Gang broke in, when he saw Zhu Di, his knees were weak, and he knelt on the ground with a bang, kowtowed and shouted: "Your Majesty, the minister is guilty!" ”
Usually seeing the driver, Ji Gang doesn't need to make such a big salute, this kneeling made Zhu Di stunned, although his heart hung in the harem, he had to stand up and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Ji Gang said: "Back to the emperor, the minister's thousands of households Yin Shenghui, was ordered by the secret to go to Beijing on business, secretly investigated the evidence of that person's crime, in Zhuozhou coincided with the imperial envoy Xiao Zujie, the previous time Yin Qianhu went to Zhejiang on a business trip, when the secret silk silk investigation of the official gentry, Xiao imperial envoy was instigated, he asked him for trouble several times, this time in Zhuozhou encountered, Xiao imperial envoy actually used the power of the patrol to forcibly arrest Yin Qianhu
Yin Qianhu has a clear conscience, and he is not afraid of being detained pending trial, but he has a secret order to investigate the country's anti-thief matter, how dare he put it on hold? Moreover, he is a five-grade official, Xiao Imperial Envoy Yuan has no right to take him, Yin Qianhu argues with reason, Xiao Imperial Envoy relies on a large number of people, and brazenly orders to take people, both sides of the Imperial Procuratorate, a Jinyi Guard, on the head of Zhuozhou City, many dead and injured, Jinyi Wei survivors were all imprisoned by Xiao Imperial Envoy.
Zhuozhou Tong sentenced Zhao Zijin knew that Xiao Imperial Envoy exceeded his authority and did not dare to bet on Jinyi Qianhu, but he was afraid of Xiao Imperial Envoy's obscenity, so he only quietly released Yin Qianhu and asked him to return to Beijing to complain about grievances, but he was unexpectedly discovered by Xiao Imperial Envoy's eyeliner, and chased Yin Qianhu all the way until Jingshi, Yin Qianhu fled to the city gate and met a group of Yazhong colleagues.
When the lower officials heard the news, they rushed to see that they were fighting at the city gate, and there was a sword and sword shadow, which frightened the common people into running everywhere, crying for their fathers and mothers. The two court officials actually fought with weapons at the feet of the Son of Heaven, which was simply sweeping the floor! The lower officials forcibly stopped the vicious fight between the two sides, brought them all to the front of the emperor, and waited for the emperor's measures! Although Yin Shenghui did not defend himself to Shangguan in the past, he vented his personal anger in the city, and he also had a big crime, so please ask the emperor to punish him together! ”
Ji Gang had already calculated what to say, and these words were said quickly and quickly, but the words were clear, which made Zhu Di angry, and shouted angrily: "Where are they? ”
Ji Gang immediately knelt down and climbed three steps, and shouted towards the door: "The emperor has an order, announce them in!" ”
Several brocade guards immediately escorted Xiao Zujie and Yin Shenghui in Zhu Di to take a look, Xiao Zujie was disheveled, his pupils were red, like crazy, he was still panting, Yin Shenghui wilted his head, his face was blue and purple, and there were a few big footprints on his body, so he asked in a deep voice: "As a minister, you are fighting in the streets?" ”
Yin Shenghui knelt down first and said: "Your Majesty, the minister is wronged, the minister is loyal to state affairs, he was ordered to go to Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Beijing and other places on business trips and was repeatedly harassed by the imperial envoy Xiao, outside the city of Zhuozhou, several of the minister's subordinates died, injured and injured, the emperor, the minister was wronged, the minister is a five-grade official, there is no will of the court, there is no conclusive evidence of guilt, he Xiao Imperial Envoy wants to arrest it, and he has never met such an arrogant and cruel official who kills people!" ”
Xiao Zujie was angry at the bullfight, kneeling or kneeling, and said loudly to Zhu Di: "Your Majesty! Yin Shenghui quibbled and deceived the emperor! The minister listened to the official gentry's complaint in Xidong, and this Yan Shenghui used the excuse of handling the case to collect and collect the official gentry and wealthy families at will, search and investigate, and be unscrupulous, forcing the official gentry to pay bribes generously in order to seek peace and tranquility! The minister wanted to take him back to Beijing in Zhuozhou and beg the emperor to punish him, but he brazenly resisted, causing four people to die and six to be injured in our capital procuratorate. Today at the head of Nanjing, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, he gathered the honor guards of the ministers and bullied me and humiliated me......"
Speaking of this, Imperial Envoy Xiao's lips trembled, his face turned purple, and he only said one sentence over and over again: "Shi can be killed, not humiliated, he is so humiliated!" ”
This Xiao Imperial Envoy was also confused, he gritted his teeth and refused to say it, just afraid that as soon as he said it, it would become a stain on his life, and everyone in the government and the opposition knew about it, afraid that he would not be laughed to death? But he didn't want to think about it, at that time, his subordinates and the people of the Jinyi Guard, and even some bystanders all saw it in their eyes, and he didn't say it himself, wouldn't anyone know?
Zhu Di was sprayed by him, and there was a faint stench, and he suddenly hated it in his heart, and couldn't help shouting: "Yin Shenghui is a brocade guard, he is ordered to investigate the case, and the wealthy family has a good income?" You said that if he asks for bribes and accepts bribes, he can hand over a handful of human and material evidence to the imperial court, and the crime will be punished! But you are only patrolling one side, who gave you the power to arrest ministers above the fifth grade? Who gave you the power to lock up the Son of Heaven at will?
Sona, he got rid of it, the Metropolitan Procuratorate died, and the Jinyi Guard also died, shouldn't you bear such faults? Yin Shenghui gathered the crowd to fight with you at the gate of the city, it was a loss of official dignity, and he would ask him for his crimes! However, Yin Shenghui acted like this, there is a reason for it, and this cause is in you, if you want to punish him, you should be punished first, what else do you have to say? ”
Xiao Zujie is jealous and hateful, and his sex is like fire, if he is not like this, he will not recklessly use force against Yin Shenghui in Zhuozhou, he was originally full of grievances, and only hoped that the emperor would administer justice for him, but the emperor actually wanted to punish him first, Xiao Zujie "snorted", and immediately became mad, he roared like a mad cow: "Yin Shenghui is corrupt and perverts the law, and the emperor is unfair!" What is the crime of the ministers to capture the traitor and eliminate the evil? What is the sin? ”
Seeing his fierce appearance, as if he was going to bite the emperor, Ji Gang on the side hurriedly jumped up, stopped in front of Xiao Zujie, and shouted: "Imperial Envoy Xiao, you don't kneel when you see it, roaring in front of the king, do you still have the thought of a monarch and a minister in your heart?" ”
When Xiao Zujie saw him, he was even more furious, pointed at him and shouted: "And you, and you, you are all in causity, a group, a ...... cough cough cough ............"
Ji Gang was also sprayed with a spit star, the disgusting in his heart, he had the intention to dodge, and there was still the emperor standing behind him, just thinking of this, a big hand came on his shoulder, and he was pushed away by Zhu Di, Zhu Di looked at Xiao Zujie, and smiled angrily: "Okay!" Good! In the middle of my Yongle Dynasty, there is only such a loyal minister as you left, if it weren't for you and the Ming Dynasty, you would have gotten it?
You are a loyal minister, you are a great loyal minister, loyal enough to lose the law of the imperial court, and take the five grades of the great members over the rules, and then let you be so loyal, the first and second rank of the court officials, princes and princesses, I am afraid that it will no longer be in your heart, Lianlian, this emperor, under the loyalty and courage of your Lord Xiao, and the awe-inspiring righteousness, you have to tremble! ”
Xiao Zujie straightened his neck and shouted: "The ministers eradicate the evil and have a clear conscience!" The great husband acts, but he asks for nothing to be ashamed of the sky, and he is not ashamed of the earth, what do the rest want? ”
Zhu Di asked in a cold voice: "I am a Ming law, and the imperial envoy patrols the world, and officials below the fifth grade break the law, and they can be governed on the spot!" Officials above the fifth grade can be impeached by the imperial court if they violate the law! You Xiao Zujie took people beyond the rules and killed people, but the facts? "Brocade night bar sketch finishing
Xiao Zujie acted ruthlessly and rashly, and rashly captured the five-grade master, which was indeed at fault first, but he regarded himself as the first minister of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, thinking that he was upright and iron-clad, and he did things without shame, and the rest were not afraid...... and grievances, where is he willing to give in, he stalked his neck and said sharply: "The ministers are arrested and evil, and what they do has a clear conscience!" ”
Zhu Di was furious, pointed at Xiao Zujie and said, "Drag this bastard out of Lian!" ”
The two brocade guards came up and dragged Xiao Zujie away, Xiao Zujie struggled desperately, and roared sharply: "The emperor is loyal and traitorous, and he protects the traitor!" The ministers are worthy of their hearts to capture and eliminate evil! ”
Zhu Di was furious, he was first wronged because his most beloved second son was wronged, he was sick in bed, and his heart was anxious, and his beloved wife's head disease recurred, and the officials were anxious.
Hearing that Xiao Zujie insisted on refusing to admit his mistake, Zhu Di immediately became angry in his heart, and evil was born to the side of his guts. He pointed at Xiao Zujie with his hand and shouted: "Drag it out!" Kill him! ”
Xiao Zujie stiffened his neck and shouted: "What is the crime of the ministers to capture and eliminate evil? The emperor is loyal and treacherous, and right and wrong are unknown, do you want to be a big faint king? ”
Zhu Di trembled with anger and yelled, "Drag it out!" Drag it out! Kill this unsightly bastard! ”
Xiao Zujie raised his arms and shouted: "If the emperor wants to kill, he will kill, the minister is born as a direct minister, and he dies as a straight ghost!" Born as a direct minister, died as a straight ......"
Chen Xu listened to Cui Xuning's report from the imperial envoy of Cui, hurried to the gate of the city, the pedestrians had already dispersed, it was quiet, and the guard of honor of the imperial envoy was listless and was coming, Chen Ying hurriedly asked what was going on, and learned that Yang Xu, the prince of the auxiliary country, passed by here, stopped Yin Shenghui from committing murder, and reprimanded Ji Gang, and asked Ji Gang to take the two to the king, and immediately secretly shouted "bad".
Ji Gang is a person who protects calves, and he is an enemy of his own family, how can he say the first half of a fair sentence? Needless to ask, he will also add fuel and vinegar to instigate the emperor to be angry, Xiao Zujie's previous actions were indeed inappropriate, but he was afraid that there would be a bitter meal in front of the emperor, Chen Ying hurriedly rode his horse and galloped wildly, and went straight to the palace.
Chen Ying entered the palace gate, and hurriedly went to the emperor's daily affairs to the palace, just after the Jinshui Bridge Chen Ying stopped, the front of the inner prison, the brocade guards lined up two rows, the posture is clearly the implementation of the court battle, now the sentence has reached the last step, the tortured minister was wrapped in a white cloth, both sides leisurely to grab the air, about to fall to the ground.
Chen Ying's heart tightened, and blurted out: "Let's execute slowly!" ”
It's late!
Chen Ying could see clearly, the brocade guard who grabbed the cloth at the end of the pocket, his hand slipped deliberately, and the person fell to the ground fiercely, his head hit the ground first, and he heard a muffled sound of "tom" from so far away!
Chen Ying stepped forward in a few steps, tore off the white cloth, and Yin Shenghui next to him said gloomily: "Lord Ministry, this is still owed two falls, the emperor's will, do you want to stop the execution?" ”
Chen Ying opened the white silk, and saw that it was Xiao Zujie inside, his body had been beaten to the flesh, and his head was like a blood gourd, so if he wanted to die, a normal fall would be enough to kill a person, not to mention that he would let the person get up and let his head touch the hard stone slab first? Xiao Zujie was already dead of anger, and Chen Ying's heart was cold at that time.
Ji Gang had just come out of the palace and saw that Chen Ying had arrived, so he walked over unhurriedly and said with a smile: "Lord Chen, is this going to enter the palace to face the saint?" Unfortunately, the mother's head disease recurred, and the emperor was very worried and went to the harem.
Chen Ying's hands and feet were cold, and even the breath he exhaled seemed to be cold, but when he slowly put down Xiao Zujie's body and slowly stood up, his pale face had quickly regained his calm, he smiled calmly, and said to Ji Gang: "The Metropolitan Procuratorate and Jinyiwei are all doing things for the emperor, and the official is unwilling to cause discord between the two officials for some personal enmity." I heard that the Duke of Fuguo happened to pass by the city gate and asked about the matter, so he asked for the holy judge, otherwise he would kill someone in the street, and you and I would be ugly, and now I will be treated like this...... "Imperial Envoy Xiao is also a well-deserved death!" ”
As soon as Chen Ying said this, the satisfied smile on Ji Gang's face immediately disappeared and became gloomy......
