Cases are heard one by one.

The original very chaotic and very complicated case seemed extremely tricky to others, but in the hands of Han Yi, it was handled very quickly.

After Yao Zongwen confessed, the rest of the matter was very simple

Soon the earliest case was cleared up, that is, the bribery case of Liu Guojin. Yao Zongwen, Feng Sanyuan and others, the charges also came out. These people accepted bribes and framed Xiong Tingbi, and the case was completed.

Han Yi said directly: "This case is like this, sealed up." ”

"Now we will start hearing the case of the DPRK and China ministers colluding with Li Ruzhen, a border general." Han Yi slapped the shocking wood with an expressionless face and said coldly.

This time it was Liu Guojin who was brought up.

After looking at Liu Guojin, who looked down-and-out, Han Yi's face was serious, and he asked in a cold voice, "Do you have anything else to say about the bribery case?" If there is, say it now; If not, sign for the drawing. Show him the confession. ”

Hearing this, the clerk who was recording the process hurriedly stood up, walked down and handed the clerk in his hand to Liu Guojin.

No one present spoke, including Wei Zhongxian, and there was silence.

It's not that they don't want to say it, it's that there's nothing to say. Through the case just now, Han Yi showed that he was capable enough, and at the same time, he also showed that he had no selfish practices.

The people present couldn't find fault if they wanted to, so they could only watch quietly.

Liu Guojin took the paperwork, glanced at it, and nodded lightly, "I don't disagree with anything." ”

There is not much written on this document, nor is it complicated, but it is written about the process of Liu Guojin's bribery, how much money was given at what place, and why he sent the money. There is nothing to say about these things.

Han Yi nodded and continued to ask, "Why did you send money to bribe them?" Why let them impeach Xiong Tingbi? ”

As soon as this question came out, everyone instantly cheered up, because this is the key to this case.

The first ones can only be regarded as appetizers, that is, cold dishes on the banquet. Now the hot dish has just been served.

Hearing Han Yi's questioning, Liu Guojin's face turned gray.

At this moment, Liu Guojin knew that he had to make it clear; If you don't say it, then you will become the mastermind of this case.

took the silver to bribe the imperial history of the court, so that he framed Xiong Tingbi. Xiong Tingbi was a member of the imperial court sent to Liaodong, and he couldn't afford this crime; If you carry it yourself, it is estimated that it will be directly the crime of killing your head.

Liu Guojin sighed softly, and said with a lonely expression: "I was instructed by Li Ruzhen in this matter. We have all been from Liaodong all these years, and I have received a lot of money from Li Ruzhen, so he asked me to do it, and I can't help but do it. ”

Nodding slightly, Han Yi continued: "How much silver did Li Ruzhen give you?" Where was it delivered? When was it delivered? Say it all. ”

Saying that, Han Yi turned his head to look at the document that was struggling to write on the side, and ordered, "Write it down." ”

Liu Guojin had no choice but to tell the process of accepting bribes one by one.

After Liu Guojin finished speaking, Han Yi asked with a cold face, "Do you have anything else to say?" ”

"Yes," Liu Guojin nodded, as if he had made up his mind, and resolutely said: "I originally disagreed with this matter, after all, Xiong Tingbi is a minister sent by the DPRK and the central government, so this may not be possible." If something happens, we can also be retaliated against. ”

"But Li Ruzhen told me that as long as I contact people, there will be people who will support me, and things will be easy to do. As Li Ruzhen expected, things did go very smoothly. I also asked Li Ruzhen who was cooperating with me, and Li Ruzhen said that he was from the Metropolitan Procuratorate of the DPRK and China. I wanted to keep asking, but he didn't say anything more. ”

Han Yi nodded, and then instructed the clerk, "Let him draw a charge." ”

Repeating the process of the last time, Liu Guojin was also taken down.

Han Yi glanced at Liu Guojin's confession document and the bright red handprint, nodded and said, "Okay, file." ”

After taking the things down, Han Yi continued: "File all the case files and bring Li Ruzhen here. ”

This set of operations made Wei Zhongxian, who was on the side, sigh with emotion.

Han Yi is worthy of being a cabinet scholar, and he is very clever in terms of interrogation skills and understanding of people's hearts.

In fact, Han Yi does not have a good understanding of people's hearts, but a better understanding of official hearts, and the questions are often to the point, and the things he takes out are irrefutable.

It didn't take long for Li Ruzhen to be brought up.

Han Yi continued the interrogation.

Li Ruzhen confessed to his crime.

He was the first to confess his sins, because he knew he didn't have to run. He was arrested not because of these things, but because of his military defeat in Liaodong.

Li Ruzhen has a clear understanding of his own situation, even if he does not deny this bribery case, those unresolved cases in Liaodong can kill him.

If he actively cooperates with this case, maybe there will be a chance to live, which he sees very clearly.

Therefore, Li Ruzhen cooperated with Wei Zhongxian before this, mainly because Wei Zhongxian promised him that he could intercede for him from the emperor and find a way to save his life.

Now, Li Ruzhen has no choice, so he decisively chose and explained how he colluded with officials in the DPRK and China, and how he embezzled Liaodong's military salaries every year.

Especially the 1 million taels allocated by the first emperor when he ascended the throne has become a feast for countless people.

He also met a lot of people at this feast, which is why he has such a great influence in the court.

After these confessions were completed, Han Yi opened his mouth and said, "Let me ask you, what is going on with Xiong Tingbi?" Why are you looking for someone to frame him? Do you have a grudge against him, or do you have something else to do? ”

"Lord Hui, I was instructed by someone to do this." Li Ruzhen didn't go around the bush either.

"Who is it?" Han Yi asked again.

"Lord Hui, it's Xue Guoyong. Everything was instructed by Xue Guoyong, and he said that as long as I cooperate with him, Liaodong Jingluo will be replaced by their people, and Liaodong will be our final say in the future. In the entire Liaodong, Xiong Tingbi is the most troublesome person, as long as we move him away, then Liaodong will have no worries. ”

Nodding slightly, Han Yi continued: "For the record. ”

Xue Guoyong is dead, there is no proof of this matter, whether what Li Ruzhen said is true or false, it is not that important.

So Han Yi didn't ask about this matter, and continued to ask, "Is there anything else?" ”

"Yes." Li Ruzhen nodded and continued: "The people who cooperate with the DPRK and China are all arranged by Xue Guoyong, he said that as long as our side cooperates well, the people in the DPRK and China will definitely find a way to take Xiong Tingbi, and the people appointed must be their own people." Things are just as he said, Xiong Tingbi was taken down, and the new Liaodong Economic Strategy Yuan Yingtai is indeed their person.

"Who are they referring to?" Han Yi asked again.

Hearing this question, Li Ruzhen smiled self-deprecatingly.

It is impossible for Han Yi not to know, but at this moment, he can only not know, and this matter has to be said by himself. So Li Ruzhen could only tilt his head and say, "It's the Donglin Party." I don't know what the outside thinks of it, but that's what I call them. Most of these people are from Donglin Academy, even if they are not from Donglin Academy, they are also in the same year, or even the same class. They colluded with each other in the DPRK and China, forming a party for personal gain, so I called them the Donglin Party. ”

"For the record." Han Yi continued to say expressionlessly.

Although there was no expression on his face, Han Yi's heart was not calm.

This can be seen from Han Yi's eyes, because his eyes reveal a touch of gray. Obviously, he also knew that this time the Donglin Party would not be able to escape.

After calming down his emotions, Han Yi continued to ask, "Is there anything else?" ”

"There are still their people in the court." Li Ruzhen continued: "Zou Yuanbiao, the left capital of the Imperial Palace, as well as Gao Panlong, the Shaoqing of Guanglu Temple, and Sun Shenxing, the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, are all their people. ”

Li Ruzhen directly bit all these people in.

Han Yi's heart trembled, he glanced at Li Ruzhen, but found that Li Ruzhen was also looking at him, and even had a touch of ridicule on the corner of his mouth.

This ridicule is for himself, because he is also a member of this faction.

However, Han Yi remained silent, he knew that this kind of thing was inevitable, and he would face more criticism later.

"Let him draw the charge." Han Yi said directly: "Take Yuan Yingtai." ”

Soon Yuan Yingtai was escorted up.

The originally smooth case finally had twists and turns here, and Yuan Yingtai didn't admit anything.

Yuan Yingtai said that he didn't know what to frame Xiong Tingbi, nor did he know what the Donglin Party was, and he went to Liaodong because he was appointed by the imperial court.

In a word, bite to death and do not admit it.

Everyone looked at Han Yi, including Wei Zhongxian.

Everyone wanted to know what Han Yi could do. You must know that from the beginning to the present, Han Yi has been indomitable. Everyone hoped that he would continue to perform miracles, including Wei Zhongxian.

Glancing at Yuan Yingtai, Han Yi sighed.

This is the first time that Han Yi has shown his emotions since the beginning of the interrogation.

However, Han Yi quickly put back his emotions and asked directly: "When the first emperor was alive, he once transferred 1 million taels of military salary to Liaodong. However, the actual amount of silver distributed to the armies in Liaodong was only 600,000 taels. How do you explain this? ”

Yuan Yingtai raised his head and looked at Han Yi, he didn't expect Han Yi to ask such a question. I really didn't expect it, I didn't expect it anyway.

Looking at Han Yi, Yuan Yingtai's face was very bitter.

What do you say about this?

Could it be that this is the rule of the DPRK and the Central Committee, the unspoken rule of officialdom?

I can't say this, and once I say it, I will end up miserable.

"There is no problem with the account, and 1 million will be issued when it comes to 1 million," Yuan Yingtai said expressionlessly.

So far, he can only deny it, and there is no other good way.

"At this point, it's useless for you to deny it. Li Ruzhen has already truthfully confessed, and as long as we send someone to investigate in Liaodong, we will definitely be able to find out. Do you want to wait until that time to condemn you? The 400,000 taels of silver from the imperial court are absolutely impossible to disappear out of thin air. You have to think about it, you can't afford to embezzle 400,000 taels of silver. ”

After saying this, Han Yi did not speak again.
