Of course there is evidence!

Ma Yingchu's face changed suddenly.

He couldn't understand how Liu Zhou, who had an excellent official reputation, became a heinous person.

Of course, Yushitai is not a vegetarian, although Ma Yingchu heard that there was still evidence, his first thought was that this Chen Zhengtai must have fabricated something out of thin air.

Therefore, Ma Yingchu just let out an inaudible cold snort from his nose.

Wen Yanbo also felt that the matter was serious at this time, and it was related to the ability of the Yushitai.

He didn't even look at Chen Zhengtai, his eyes fell elsewhere, but he said word by word: "If there is evidence, please show it, it's just ...... If this is fabricated out of thin air, and the truth is false, Chen Juma is a relative of the emperor, and he is unspeakably noble, but it is also a heinous crime to slander the minister, and at that time, the whole of the imperial history platform will inevitably be impeached together! ”

When these words were released, it could be regarded as completely putting Yu Shitai and Chen Zhengtai on the opposite side.

It's best if your evidence is useful, and if not, the Goshidai won't be polite.

Li Shimin's eyes drooped, no one could see his expression clearly, only heard him say: "Where is the evidence?" ”

In one day, the evidence from years ago was collected, and in the eyes of everyone, there was really no other possibility than to fabricate and slander out of thin air.

Therefore, more people looked at Wen Yanbo and Ma Yingchu sympathetically.

Chen Zhengtai said: "Your Majesty, here in Erpigou, three years ago, a group of displaced people from Shaanzhou came to ......."

As soon as he spoke, Wen Yanbo said coldly: "Shaanzhou refugees, what do you have to do with it?" ”

Chen Zhengtai said: "It was because of the drought three years ago that they had no livelihood and they migrated here. ”

Wen Yanbo showed a disapproving expression on his face, and said: "The migration of people is a common thing, and I am afraid that it is too far-fetched to use this as evidence of crime." ”

How much time has passed? Accusing only on this basis, in Wen Yanbo's view, this is just Chen Zhengtai's deliberate attempt to bring down the Yushitai.

Chen Zhengtai said: "I have a witness here. ”

"Human witness?" Wen Yanbo raised his eyes: "Who is it?" ”

Chen Zhengtai said: "Please ask Zhang Lishi to invite people into the palace." ”

Hundreds of officials in the palace? Still not much expression.

They have seen a lot of such attacks in the court.

In their opinion? It's just a bite between each other.

And hundreds of people up and down the Yushi Terrace? Any imperial history can't be easily provoked? After all, they are known for chasing after the wind and shadows, and they can speak well.

Chen Zhengtai's so-called incriminating evidence? Afraid of a blink of an eye? can be overturned.

So everyone remained silent, wanting to see, what is Chen Zhengtai's witness?

Zhang Qian hurried out of the hall? Then he led a man in.

This person looked very faced.

Ordinary dress? A short outfit, apparently from a workshop? Somewhat sallow? But the complexion is like the bark of an old elm, full of wrinkles? Nothing in his eyes? Looked around in alarm.

Wait for him to come in? Everyone looked at this man strangely.

Such a person...... In fact, everyone has seen a lot.

For the princes of the court, the vast majority of people will not easily raise their eyes to take a second look.

Li Shimin is also strange? What is Chen Zhengtai's so-called evidence, but when he saw this person come in at this time, he couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

Seeing this, Wen Yanbo immediately said sharply: "Your Majesty, is this Chen Zhengtai's so-called human witness?" An ordinary little ......"

His words had already startled the old craftsman, and the old craftsman's face suddenly turned much whiter, and he was even more panicked.

Chen Zhengtai had already stepped forward, ignoring Wen Yanbo, but said to the old craftsman: "This is Tianzi Hall, Your Majesty is here, you don't have to panic, I'll ask you ......"

The old craftsman nodded hurriedly, he looked ashamed of himself, and even felt that his clothes would stain the floor tiles in this hall, so that he did not dare to kneel, and it was difficult to stand, and he looked helpless.

Chen Zhengtai asked, "Who are you?" ”

The old craftsman said: "I ...... My name is Liu Jiu. ”

"Enough!" Wen Yanbo roared: "Chen Zhengtai, what do you mean by inviting such a person to the Taiji Palace?" ”

The ministers couldn't help but start whispering to each other, and for a while, there was some noise in the hall.

Li Shimin took care of the case and said coldly: "Let Chen Zhengtai ask." ”

Wen Yanbo stopped talking.

So Chen Zhengtai continued to ask: "Liu Jiu, where are you from?" ”

"I ...... I am from Shaanzhou. ”

"Shaanzhou? When did you come to Kyoshi? ”

Liu Jiudao: "Three years ago, July ......"

Chen Zhengtai continued to ask: "Why did you come to Beijing?" ”

"I ......" Liu Jiu looked cramped and uneasy, but fortunately, Chen Zhengtai kept asking him, so that he said without thinking: "There is a big drought, and the township can't survive." ”

"Can't survive?" Chen Zhengtai said: "But I heard that the drought in Shaanxi is slight and insignificant. ”

When Liu Jiu heard Chen Zhengtai's rebuttal, he panicked all of a sudden, and hurriedly said, "No...... Don't dare to hide it, really...... It's really a big drought......"

Chen Zhengtai sneered: "But what you said is very different from what the Shaanzhou Observation Envoy and the Yushitai reported. ”

"This ......" Liu Jiu panicked even more: "I, I don't dare to lie......"

The hall was silent, and the ministers all looked indifferent.

This is unprecedented, and in everyone's opinion, Chen Zhengtai's move is quite a bit of a suspicion of grandstanding.

At this time, Chen Zhengtai continued: "In this way, there is really a big drought in Shaanzhou? ”

"Is this still fake?" Liu Jiu seemed to be anxious to explain, and hurriedly continued: "I ...... That's when I escaped...... There was a great drought that year, and the crops in the vicinity were not harvested, and the stored grain had long been eaten, and when there was no grain, there were many thieves in the mountains, and the world suddenly became difficult, and the whole village had to flee the famine...... People are not willing to leave their hometowns unless they have to, but there is no way, if they don't escape, it's a dead word, I ...... I escaped at that time, dozens of people in the village followed the team to flee the famine, all the way over, there was nothing to eat, along the way, there were people who starved to death everywhere, some people were extremely hungry, their eyes were yellow, and they even ate the soil in the field, so they swollen their stomachs and died hard. This is ...... along the way There was no food at all, and when we arrived at the county seat and the state city, the city gate in the city had long been closed, and we were not allowed to enter, saying that we wanted to guard against the small people, and we had no way, and some people still hid under the city wall, hoping that the officials in the city would have mercy. There are also people who can't stand it and continue to flee the famine. ”

Speaking of this, Liu Jiu's voice was low, and he said in a trance: "I was lucky, I met nobles along the way, and finally got out of Shaanzhou, and then went all the way to Erpigou before settling down......

Hearing this, Wen Yanbo, Ma Yingchu and the others just sneered.

The ministers also did not look committal.

Wen Yanbo stepped forward and looked at Liu Jiu with a sneer: "Hearing you say this, the drought in Shaanxi has reached a very serious point, and many people have died, right?" Be bold, you Diao people, nine times out of ten, you were instigated by others, so you said such things! There is no evidence for what you say, and you say that many people have died, but it is just your own words, and you keep saying that many people have died, so let me ask you, which one died, and what is the name of the dead? ”

He asked sharply, thinking that it was enough to scare Liu Jiu.

This kind of Diao people, when they came to this kind of place, they were already frightened, no matter what Chen Zhengtai had instigated before, but these people had no knowledge, and when they were frightened, they didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore.

But who knows......

Liu Jiu's expression, from trembling and panic at first, began to become strange.

His face was still timid, but this timidity slowly began to change, and then, his face slowly began to distort, and then ...... The eyes were raised, and the eyes that were originally cloudy and godless were suddenly brightened, and the eyes flowed through them...... It's anger that can't be hidden.

Wen Yanbo was a little frightened by this look, he subconsciously took a step back, gasped, and said in his heart, what is going on, this person ......

I saw that Liu Jiu's eyes suddenly began to shed tears, and tears flowed well.

Liu Jiu gritted his teeth, and suddenly yelled hysterically: "Do you want evidence?" Okay, let me tell you the evidence, my Liu Jiu's family of thirteen, my father, my uncle, my two brothers, my mother-in-law, and my two daughters and a son, all died on the way to escape the famine! They're all dead! ”

Liu Jiu was as angry as a lion, staring at Wen Yanbo viciously.

When Wen Yanbo heard this, his body shook, and he couldn't help but take a step back, he was a little panicked. He couldn't imagine that an ordinary small person would make him panic a little.

Liu Jiu seemed to be about to crush his teeth, his eyes were bloodshot, he still stared at Wen Yanbo deadly, and continued to roar: "They ...... They were all starved to death, they were starved to death, they really had nothing to eat, my daughter, who was only four years old at that time, had nothing to eat, and even the dandruff from the trees was gone, and she cried until she had no strength, and then she died. My mother-in-law has been thinking that she is about to arrive, she is about to arrive, and when she arrives in the city, she will have food to eat! But who ever thought of the city, and could not even enter the city. Numerous people had already gathered there, all crying, and some tried to approach the tower, but were repelled with arrows by the archers of the city. My mother-in-law, knowing that there was no way to go, said to herself like crazy, and when she fell to the side of the road, she could no longer stand up. What evidence, you ask me? Let me tell you, my family is old and young, all evidence, thirteen people, only I survived, if I didn't come to Erpigou, our Liu family, the last bit of blood would be gone. ”

Speaking of this, Liu Jiu thought of the Mid-Autumn Festival three years ago, and seemed to think of his daughter falling into his arms, crying constantly, until the silent afternoon, the tears in his eyes fell like broken beads, and he was choked up, but said vaguely: "They are all dead, all dead, and they fell on the side of the road...... I...... I want to stay, I really want to stay, but I have to keep going, to stay, is to die, when my daughter died, I want to ...... I still have my mother-in-law, and my son, and my mother...... Later, my mother starved to death, she ate the soil, her stomach was swollen and couldn't stand it, she rolled on the ground in pain, and kept saying, hurry up, hurry up, hurry up, take the mother-in-law and son out, and want to live. I knew that my mother was not saved, so I continued to walk, walked and walked, and then my mother-in-law died, and after that, my son was gone, in a group of homeless people, you sleep and get up, and your son is gone, and they all say that someone must have stolen it, and someone is very hungry, so he wants to steal the child, my son, so far I haven't seen him again, you know...... You know...... Where is he? ”

Liu Jiu raised his head and looked at Wen Yanbo deadly.

Wen Yanbotun felt creepy, his face was miserable, as if he had never thought of such a terrifying thing, so he retreated again and again, and for a while, he didn't dare to come out.

All of a sudden, the ministers also became extremely solemn, and the people lowered their eyes, and they all held their breath at this time.

Every word of Liu Jiu is like a thorn, which sounds terrifying, but it also makes people seem to realize something.

At this moment, Liu Jiuyi slapped himself in the face, so crisp that everyone in the hall could hear it very clearly, and then heard him say: "I really deserve to die, I should have died a long time ago, why didn't I die......"

Then he slapped him one by one, and his face was stained with blood.

But no one stepped forward to stop him.

Li Shimin sat high in the hall, and his heart was already hurting like a heartache at this time.

Wen Yanbo still wanted to ask something, trying to find a loophole, but his shriveled lips trembled, his body trembled slightly, but he couldn't spit out a word for a while.

On the other side, Ma Yingchu was obviously not reconciled, and said unconfidently: "This ...... It's a family word......"

Chen Zhengtai glared at him angrily and said, "Why not just one family? Ma Yushi thought that the one who fled from Shaanzhou was just Liu Jiu? So many people starved to death in Shaanzhou, but ...... The sky finally has eyes, and it will always leave some people, perhaps...... What I am waiting for today is ......"

Chen Zhengtai said, took out a stack of recitals from his sleeve, and then said to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, here, it is the sons and daughters who urgently searched for the Shaanzhou people in Chang'an yesterday...... If you don't believe it, you can ask the law department to immediately invite all these dictated people, this is not one person or two, but dozens or hundreds of people, Liu Jiu is by no means just a family, people like him, hundreds of thousands...... Your Majesty, please. ”

Chen Zhengtai said, and sent the pile of recitals to the little eunuch, and the little eunuch hurriedly stepped forward to take the recital, and the little eunuch seemed to be frightened by Liu Jiu, and took the recital to the palace tremblingly.

And at this time...... Wen Yanbo and Ma Yingchu were already sallow, and they suddenly realized ...... It seems like...... It's going to be over.
