Chapter 31: Yang Lian's Answer
Hearing Yang Lian's answer, Zhu Youxiao immediately smiled. After staring at Yang Lian for a long time, he knew that the pit he had dug today was effective.
No matter what Yang Lian thinks psychologically, it is enough for him to say such things, the reason is that he and Gao Panlong said differently.
Gao Panlong's statement can obviously cater to many people's minds, but Yang Lian's statement is exactly the opposite of Gao Panlong, this is what Zhu Youxiao wants.
Yang Lian said this, Gao Panlong must be dissatisfied. You're just a junior of the Donglin Party, what kind of big-tailed wolf are you pretending?
You say you should be punished severely, so what am I talking about? You are a righteous man, but what about me? Despicable villain? If Gao Panlong is a loyal and upright person, then Yang Lian?
This is a power technique, a very simple power technique.
Zhu Youxiao had seen Emperor Jiajing in his previous life, and he was a master who had been playing with power all his life.
Although Emperor Jiajing finally played the Ming Dynasty into a mess, there was one thing he did, that is, he was a vassal king with no foundation, but in the end, he completely held the imperial power in his hands.
Looking at Yang Lian, Zhu Youxiao nodded lightly, and then said, "Yang Aiqing is worthy of being deeply influenced by Mr. Gu Xiancheng, good, very good." ”
"Your Majesty has praised it falsely, and the minister has just fulfilled the duty of a courtier." Yang Lian hurriedly bowed down and said modestly, this is what a courtier should say.
Zhu Youxiao nodded, and then said: "According to Aiqing's meaning, should this case be handed over to Dongchang for further investigation, or should it be tried by the Third Division?" ”
The so-called three divisions are actually the Criminal Department, Dali Temple and the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
In fact, the investigation of a case, unless it is really impossible to find out from the Dongchang side, the emperor will transfer it; Or after the investigation is completed on the Dongchang side, the remaining sentencing and conviction will be handed over to the third division to get it, and sometimes the emperor will directly issue an order to ask for the guilt.
Yang Lian was also upset when he heard this, if Dongchang was allowed to continue the interrogation, this would not be in line with Wenchen's thoughts, in Wei Zhongxian's hands, the situation would not be easy to control.
However, if it is changed to a triage by the three divisions, if there is nothing to be tried, I am afraid that I will not be able to explain it to His Majesty.
After pondering for a long time, Yang Lian still bit and said, "The minister thinks it should be handed over to the three divisions for trial." Wei Zhongxian was a eunuch, and these people had written to impeach Wei Zhongxian before, and the ministers were worried that Wei Zhongxian would take the opportunity to frame Pan Bite. Since the case has been confirmed, it is also good to change it to the three divisions for interrogation, which can calm down the material discussion, so the minister feels that it should be handed over to the three divisions for interrogation. ”
Zhu Youxiao looked at Yang Lian, nodded lightly, and then said: "That's fine, then this case will be handed over to Aiqing for trial, and the Criminal Department and Dali Temple will cooperate." ”
Yang Lian was stunned, he didn't expect His Majesty to hand over this case to him, but after being stunned, Yang Lian hurriedly bowed down and said, "The minister's order!" ”
Looking at the back of Yang Lian leaving, Zhu Youxiao gently tapped on the armrest of the wheelchair, turned his head to Chen Hong and ordered: "Go to Dongchang and tell Wei Zhongxian, don't interrogate the case first, treat those injuries, and don't let people die in the prison of Dongchang." Tell him that the case was handed over to Yang Lian and let him go to the trial. Remember, it's a hearing, just come back and tell me. ”
Chen Hong hurriedly said: "Yes, Your Majesty!" ”
After speaking, Chen Hong hurriedly turned around and went out, his steps were very fast, and he felt that his heart was about to jump out if he walked slowly.
As the only person who sees everything in his eyes, Chen Hong's heart is beating very fast at this moment, and in his opinion, this time he is afraid that something will happen.
Yang Lian walked out of the palace, his mood was a little heavy, he knew that this time there was trouble.
After returning to the Imperial Palace, Yang Lian sat in his seat and thought for a long time, and finally stood up and walked to the house of Zou Yuanbiao, the imperial history of the left capital.
For his boss, Yang Lian still trusts and admires, and he plans to ask Zou Yuanbiao what he means.
Zou Yuanbiao is also one of the leaders of the Donglin Party, and is known as the "Three Gentlemen" along with Zhao Nanxing and Gu Xiancheng, and is Yang Lian's idol and boss.
Seeing Yang Lian walking in, Zou Yuanbiao said with a smile: "Coming?" I'm getting ready to find you. ”
Listening to Zou Yuanbiao's words, Yang Lian was stunned, but he still hurriedly asked, "My lord, is there something wrong?" ”
"You're in the palace?" Zou Yuanbiao looked at Yang Lian, and then asked.
Yang Lian nodded: "Yes, Your Majesty summoned you." ”
"Have you ever met Gao Panlong?" Zou Yuanbiao's face was very serious.
"Yes." Yang Lian nodded again: "But I didn't say anything, Your Majesty summoned Master Gao first, and when I came out, the others had already left." ”
Nodding, Zou Yuanbiao leaned back, his face becoming more and more serious: "But what about those people's cases?" ”
Yang Lian nodded again: "How do you know?" ”
"Can the news in the palace be hidden?" Speaking of this, Zou Yuanbiao was a little resentful, but he could only point to this, privately speculating in the palace that if someone heard of the impeachment, Zou Yuanbiao should go home.
Of course, this is also in the face of Yang Lian, Zou Yuanbiao has no scruples. Staring at Yang Lian with burning eyes, Zou Yuanbiao asked again, "Did Your Majesty say what to do?" ”
"Your Majesty asked the subordinate what he meant, and the subordinate said that he should be severely punished, and the three divisions should be tried, and His Majesty has handed over this case to our three divisions for trial, and the chief judge is the lower official." Yang Lian had already realized that something was wrong, so he was a lot more careful when he spoke.
After listening to Yang Lian's words, Zou Yuanbiao fell into silence, and only sighed after a while: "I'm afraid that things are in trouble." ”
"Why do you say that?" Yang Lian looked at Zou Yuanbiao and asked with a slight hesitation.
You must know that Yang Lian understands Zou Yuanbiao as a person, and if he can let this adult say such things, then the matter is really not small.
His Majesty summoned Gao Panlong to inquire about this matter, and Gao Panlong replied that Your Majesty This matter should be a big matter and a small matter, and it should not be too big. Li Ruzhen is a famous general in Liaodong, the prestige accumulated by the Li family in Liaodong is very heavy, if Li Ruzhen is disposed of, I am afraid that Liaodong will be unstable, and now Liaodong is an eventful season, and there should be no more incidents, and it is necessary to be safe. Zou Yuanbiao said as he raised his head and looked at Yang Lian.
Yang Lian's face darkened again, and he raised his head to look at Zou Yuanbiao: "What do you think adults should do?" ”
Zou Yuanbiao's heart sank, he knew what Yang Lian meant by asking this, this was to know which side he was on, whether to support Gao Panlong or support him.
Zou Yuanbiao looked at Yang Lian and did not answer his question directly, but asked again, "But really?" ”
Nodding heavily, Yang Lian said bluntly: "Indeed, all of them are confessions in person, maybe there was torture, but they are not tortured." They colluded with Liu Ruzhen, and Liu Guojin was the middleman in it, and they received 3,000 taels of silver for the impeachment of Xiong Tingbi. ”
