Yan Chengjin looked at Huang Qin and the local officials in the audience.

Hanging and decrepit, kneeling in the hall.

These two people are already in their old age and cannot be tortured.

"Blindfold them both and tie their feet."

Mu Bin was a little stunned, but saw Yan Chengjin beckoning to him and went to the back hall of the yamen together.

This is where the presiding judge rests.

Yan Chengjin said: "The official has returned to the palace, and he has wronged Lord Mu, and after a while, he will get under the ya, and the official will remove the servant, and when the two of them confess, Lord Mu will come out and let them draw the detention." ”

"That's ...... Will they confess? Mu Bin was a little confused.

This is Wang Shouren's method of interrogating prisoners after he has learned a lot.

Got under the ya's case, didn't speak for a long time, the prisoners thought that there was no one in the yatang, and they colluded with each other to confess, and were arrested by Wang Shouren.

Yan Chengjin borrowed it.

It contains a lot of psychology, and it has the same path as the fatigue and interrogation of later generations.

Huang Qin and the local officials did not know that they would be escorted to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and they must collude to confess before they could have the confidence to exonerate themselves.

Yan Chengjin said: "Please also Lord Mu, don't fall asleep." ”

Moments later,

I don't know what this son is going to do, Mu Bin scolded in his heart, and got under the royal case lightly.

Yan Chengjin sat down in the hall again, and next to his knees was Mu Bin, this bad posture......

"Come on, let go of the veil from their eyes."

After Huang Qin and the local official's black cloth was loosened, Yan Chengjin stood up: "This official has something important to enter the palace, come back for a retrial, you go back and rest." ”

Huang Qin and the local officials watched Yan Chengjin walk past him blankly, and the officials also retreated.

In the blink of an eye, the hall was empty.

This???

Huang Qin and Tuguan glanced at each other.

An hour passed, and the two of them knelt a little numb, but their legs were tied up, like a mermaid, and they couldn't get up.

"Someone? The old man's legs are sore, please help the old man change his position. Huang Qin shouted at the top of his voice.

Looking around left and right, there was no half of a figure.

Mu Bin complained bitterly, and Yan Chengjin appeared in his mind, so he hated to beat him up.

No wonder this son didn't drill and soured Lao Tzu.

It was dark under the tent, and the hour was not visible.

Another hour passed, and it was almost noon.

Huang Qin and Tuguan still didn't speak, they changed positions, leaned forward, and fell to the ground.

At noon, no one came to interrogate him.

Huang Qin and Tuguan squinted for a while, most of the day without rice, hungry and uncomfortable.

Until dusk,

Huang Qin and the local officials were completely sure that the dog officials must have forgotten about them.

"The old case of Chenghua for ten years, even if Bao Xiren is alive, he can't find out, Beizhen Fusi Xingxing will be tortured, if he really goes to prison, if you don't say it, Jinyiwei will be helpless."

Huang Qin reminded the local officials, afraid that this southern barbarian had never seen the world, and he would recruit when he saw the torture instrument.

Mu Bin was drowsy, and when he heard the voice outside, he suddenly cheered up.

Just listen, and the voice outside came again.

The local official palpitated and said: "Then the imperial history left us here, I'm afraid he didn't want to starve us to death?" ”

Huang Qin looked at no one around him and lowered his voice: "He doesn't dare, Your Majesty is lenient with people, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate doesn't dare to use lynching." ”

"When can we go back to Guangxi?"

"If you want to go to prison, nine times out of ten, you will die in prison."

The local official was covered in a cold sweat and looked at Huang Qin: "Life, life in prison?" ”

"How much money did you collect back then?! If Han Yong overturns the case, you and I slander the important ministers of the court, according to the Ming law, it is enough to distribute the frontier.

If you don't want to die on the road, don't even say it.

No matter which yamen you go to, you will say that you don't know the old man, and the old man doesn't know you. ”

Huang Qin commanded in a low voice.

Mu Bin's face froze, he really couldn't understand why the two of them would tell the old thing.

There was no execution,

The old case of more than 20 years was broken by Yan Chengjin in this way.

He crawled out from under the office in shock.

"You two don't have to pretend that you don't recognize it, just now, the official has heard it, sign and draw it."

Huang Qin and the local officials were like frightened birds, and they were so frightened that they were in a trance, only to see that the yagong case above moved, and a figure came out.

"You, shameless!"

"Things are expensive, and soldiers don't get tired of cheating!"

Mu Bin shouted, and the yamen and Jinyi guards rushed in.

Presenting the lawsuit in front of the two of them, Huang Qin bit it to death: "If the old man doesn't sign, what can you do with me?" ”

Mu Bin had a cold face: "The edict has its own means of dealing with riffraff, and if you sign it, Your Majesty may be punished lightly." ”

……

Yan Chengjin prepared to leave the palace.

Passing by the noon gate Guangting, I saw Han Wen standing in front of the moon cave, and when I saw him, I stared at him.

"The student has seen Master Yan and heard that Jinyiwei has returned to Beijing."

From time to time, Han Wen inquired about the wine of the priest of the country.

When her mother learned of His Majesty's decree to re-investigate the case, she cried for a few days, hoping that her father would rehabilitate Zhaoxue.

On the ancestral grave, even if it is green smoke.

"It's getting dark, send the official back home first."

"......" Korean.

Early the next morning, in the temple of heaven,

Emperor Hongzhi was on the throne, his face was complicated, and in his hand was the lawsuit sent back by Mu Bin.

The case of more than 20 years was solved by Mu Bin like this.

"The first emperor was deceived by treachery, so that Han Yongzhishi, I returned his innocence today, and pursued Xiangyi, what do you think?"

Liu Jian nodded slightly, "It should be so!" ”

There was no objection from the officials.

Even so, there is still guilt in my heart.

What Emperor Hongzhi hated the most was such a false accusation, which corrupted the Ming Dynasty and made the court miserable.

"Huang Qin and the local officials in the same case were all sent to the northwest to repair the Great Wall, and Yan Chengjin made a meritorious contribution to solving the case, and was rewarded with five hundred taels of silver."

Yan Chengjin's heart moved slightly, it seemed that His Majesty was concerned about this matter.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be so generous.

Emperor Hongzhi pondered for a moment: "What do the princes think of the edict of Hanwen as the hundred households of Jinwuwei?" ”

The mother concubine was brought back to the palace by Han Yong, and my country has a great relationship with Han Yong.

When he thought of this, he wanted to recruit Hanwen to be on duty in the palace.

Li Dongyang and Liu Jian glanced at each other, Your Majesty is this too much pampering?

"Your Majesty, Han Wen is the prisoner of the country, wouldn't it be better if he could use the imperial examination to serve the imperial court?"

Emperor Hongzhi looked at Yan Chengjin: "I heard that he is coarse and literate, but is this so?" ”

"Yes, the minister thinks that it is better to let him enter the palace as a brocade guard, without merit and achievement, and seal a hundred households, for fear of falling into the mouth." Yan Chengjin Road.

"I think you want him to go to the Yan Mansion to spy on you, right?" Emperor Hongzhi seemed to be smiling.

Yan Chengjin was embarrassed, he wanted to replace Ye Zhun.

"Enshrine Han Wen as Jin Wuwei, and enter the palace on an errand."

……

Outside the palace, the deserted courtyard of the West City.

Mother Han sat on the straw mat and cried to the spiritual seat: "Your Majesty Shengming, I have been wronged for the master, the master has a spirit under the spring, and he ...... with me in his dream."

Han Wen supported his mother, sighed again and again, and made a gesture at Yan Chengjin.

"This is His Majesty's will, the official will not read it, send the official back to the house first, and then you will see it on the way."

Yan Chengjin sat in a sedan chair, and His Majesty rewarded him with five hundred taels of silver, but it has not yet arrived.

When I enter the palace tomorrow, I have to ask His Majesty for it.
