【0755 Three Sessions Trial】
"Then our family will pass on the holy decree before you go to Liaodong, allowing Sun Chengzong to return to his hometown." Wei Zhongxian said that he understood Wei Bao, and if the student objected to the teacher's words, Wei Bao would indeed be pointed at outside in the future, and he would not be able to raise his head.
"No, Dad, if you dismiss Elder Sun Ge before I go to Liaodong, I will go to office again, and others will still say about me. They will say that I recognize the thief as my father, they will say that I fell into the well, and I will also be scolded for being a bloody dog, and the words are not good, but this is the case, please don't blame my father. Wei Bao said.
Wei Zhongxian frowned, "You little monkey cub thinks about a lot of things, and you have a lot of eyes, so what do you say?" ”
"After the child takes office, my father will remove Sun Ge Lao, so that nothing goes wrong, and I can fully take over the power of Jiliao soldiers and horses as Sun Ge's old disciple! When the time comes, I will pretend again and say that I will not be the Imperial History Supervisor! When the time comes, Elder Sun Ge and a group of generals who are devoted to Elder Sun Ge will turn around and persuade me to stay in office! When the time comes, I'll be secretly weakening them! Wei Bao said: "So, be sure to ask my father to postpone the holy decree of removing Sun Ge Lao for a month!" After Gao Di and I go to Liaodong, we will send someone to deliver the decree. ”
Wei Bao knew that not sending such an important official document was a big deal for others, but it was easy for Wei Zhongxian.
Wei Zhongxian glared at Wei Bao, "Child, there is a big fake like a true person in the world, and a big traitor like a loyal person, there is really no one who can be out of your right." Not only do you calculate your own teacher, but you also want to pretend to be forced to be helpless in front of the world, pretending to be a filial son and grandson, hehe. ”
Wei Bao looked embarrassed, "Dad, this is scolding the child." Child, this is all for the Ming Dynasty and for Dad's career! The child knows the importance of cutting Jiliao and Liaodong soldiers and horses, as well as reducing Shandong soldiers and horses! The imperial court can no longer afford such a huge military expenditure! If you can reduce the entire Ming Dynasty's soldiers and horses to less than 500,000 now, you will be able to have peace in the world immediately. It's hard to do, and anyone who does it risks losing their heads! So, the child has to act as the one who lost his head for his father! Wei Bao said angrily.
Wei Zhongxian nodded, "A smart person is a smart person, child, you are so smart, it seems that our family can't hide anything from you!" Our family is not asking you to die, but our family believes that you can do this. And if you hadn't sacrificed your life in front of Your Majesty today to protect our family, our family would still be reluctant to give you so much power. Don't let down our family's hard work. ”
"Without his father's cultivation, the child can't even get a show, not to mention that he is now a five-grade official of the imperial court, and his father has the grace of reinvention for the child, and the child can't be repaid." Wei Bao said excitedly.
"You don't want to expose your relationship with our family in front of outsiders, our family can follow you, but you must know that if this is the case, the people under our family will continue to be suspicious of you and will continue to kill you! Our family can't protect you clearly, understand, just like this time, if they want to expel you from the Jingshi, they are too angry with you. Our family can't not say that you are our family's family, but also protect you, that will hurt the hearts of the people below. ”
"I understand the difficulties of the 9,000-year-old, thank you for the 9,000-year-old for tolerating me, until the day when the Donglin Party is completely eradicated, I will officially worship under my father's door, I believe that at that time, the people under my father will understand my character." Wei Bao said angrily.
Wei Zhongxian was satisfied with Wei Bao's statement, and chatted with Wei Bao for a while before letting Wei Bao leave.
Wei Bao didn't care what Wei Zhongxian would think, he just didn't give in to the matter of being with the eunuchs on the surface, anyway, he couldn't stand with the eunuchs wholeheartedly.
Wei Bao has been preparing for the early death of Emperor Zhu Youxiao of the Apocalypse two years later, and for the Donglin Party to come to power.
Now that Wei Zhongxian is powerful and the emperor is so young, no one in the world will make this kind of preparation in advance except Wei Bao!
Zhu Youxiao couldn't think of it, and Wei Zhongxian couldn't think of it either!
Wei Bao is the only one in the world who predicts the course of history, which is Wei Bao's biggest advantage.
We must not only conform to historical development and desperately reap dividends, but also avoid risks and skip traps one by one!
He has now had the opportunity to get the biggest bonus he can get.
If a fifteen-year-old person really gains such power as the governor of Haiphong, it is equivalent to the governor of Zhili in the late Qing Dynasty! Isn't that enough?
Whether it is political influence or strength, it is enough!
What Wei Bao has to do now is to complete the text inventory as soon as possible, eliminate all the officials who can be eliminated within his current authority with an iron fist, and change all the people.
The more people he replaces, the more bribes he will receive, and in addition, the people who come up are all from him, and he has an invisible thread in his hand leading them!
He is the head of these newcomers, or officials who have been promoted because of him.
When Chongzhen comes to power in the future and the Donglin Party makes a comeback, the eunuch party will collapse at the touch of a button.
But it doesn't matter, when the time comes, his Wei faction will replace the Wei faction and become a new faction that can compete with the Donglin Party.
Wei Bao has not been in contact with Zhu Youzhen during this time, mainly because there is no chance, Zhu Youzhen's identity is very sensitive, Zhu Youzhen lives in a simple place on weekdays, and almost never leaves his small Xinwang Mansion!
So Wei Bao didn't go to Chongzhen.
But Wei Bao sent a eunuch last year to fight Zhu Youzhen's side through Wang Tiqian's relationship, and he had already laid out this move.
When he left the palace, it was already dark, and Wei Bao naturally had no reason to go to the yamen again, and went back to his mansion directly.
Emperor Zhu Youxiao of the Apocalypse is not a person who particularly likes to give people words and plaques, but it seems that only for Wei Bao, the emperor loves to give these.
Originally, Wei Bao's mansion was very low-key, in addition to covering a large area, the interior decoration is very luxurious, and there is no name to see outside, this area is the old alley of Jingshi, just behind the pig market, it was originally very lively, but because all the houses in this area were bought by the Heaven and Earth Society.
Therefore, the overall environmental protection is very good, and there are even garbage bins that will only exist in later generations, and everyone will consciously put garbage into the garbage bins, and there are even public toilets and sewage pipe septic tanks.
Wei Bao's mansion was originally not that big, but it was combined with more than 30 small mansions in the vicinity to have its current scale, and it was secretly one of the best mansions in the capital.
But Akari is not very conspicuous.
Now the situation is different, two days ago the emperor gave Wei Mansion a plaque, and as soon as the plaque given by the emperor was hung, it immediately made the entire mansion tall and tall, and it also became a conspicuous focus in the capital.
Wei Bao got out of the sedan chair, looked at the two words Wei Fu written by Zhu Youxiao, secretly funny, and touched the Nine Dragons jade pendant pinned to his waist, secretly thinking that he couldn't be low-key.
is just a modern little eagle silk, how can He De be so valued by the emperor in Daming.
Maybe it's because I'm a Tanhualang, maybe it's because I'm only fifteen years old, and I'm the same age as the emperor, maybe it's because I can work as a carpenter, maybe it's because I've made a little name in the Duchayuan and Dali Temple.
Maybe it's because of one aspect, maybe it's because each aspect has a little bit to do with it.
In short, Wei Bao is interested in it right now.
"Your Excellency is back." Wu Xuexia smiled skillfully.
Behind Wu Xuexia stood Wang Qiuya, Princess Zhenming, Xiong Xin'er and Yang Xue as usual, and a group of big beauties saluted Master Wei together very neatly.
Wei Bao secretly found that he didn't have to worry about the ranking of women, it seemed that they would sort themselves.
Except for Wang Qiuya and Wu Xuexia, the rest are basically sorted in order of coming to him.
Wu Xuexia was supposed to be ranked behind Wang Qiuya, but it seems that Wang Qiuya sighed that she was not as good as Wu Xuexia and was willing to be ranked behind Wu Xuexia.
"Why did you call your adult again?" Wei Bao smiled.
"Isn't this at the gate of the house? Otherwise, it's called the young master, but unfortunately there is no master. Wu Xuexia said with a smile.
Wei Bao smiled and casually took off the black gauze hat and handed it to Wu Xuexia, and strode towards the house.
Wei Bao entered the mansion and did not tell a few beauties what happened in the palace today, after talking for a day, he had nothing to say after he went home.
In the past, there were no beauties in modern times, and I fantasized about one day God giving me a beauty, and I must hold the beauty and say enough.
But there really were so many at once, and Wei Bao didn't seem to be interested anymore.
It can't be said that I'm not interested, but there are too many choices, and I don't have anyone I particularly want to talk to for a while.
It seems that anyone can do it, and it seems that no one needs it very much.
Except for doing it with Wang Qiuya every four or five days, the other women basically have a very pure relationship with Master Wei, the boss and secretary.
Eating, practicing martial arts, bathing, meditating, resting, very regular.
The next day, Lord Wei got up early.
Today is the day when the three halls will interrogate Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou, Xiong Tingbi and others.
These more than 40 civil officials actually have little to do with Xiong Tingbi, one is the case of Wei Zhongxian's impeachment, and the other is Wei Zhongxian's case of listing Xiong Tingbi's bribery.
Two cases that were originally unrelated were so strangely linked.
The place where the three halls were judged was still placed in Dali Temple.
Dali Temple is the highest judgment yamen of the Ming Dynasty.
Although Wei Bao was secretly granted full authority by the emperor and Wei Zhongxian to dispose of the cases of Yang Lianzuo Guangdou and Xiong Tingbi, this was secretly.
The chief judge on the surface is the cabinet minister Wei Guangwei, who is not a die-hard eunuch, but belongs to the eunuch party who is extremely close to the eunuch party, can be said to be half a eunuch party, and is the main minister of the eunuch party and the imperial court.
The first deputy presiding judge is Luan Ruping, the left capital of the Imperial Procuratorate.
The second deputy chief judge is Zou Yuanbiao, the left capital of the Imperial Court of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
Originally, there was usually only one person on the left and right sides of the Imperial Palace, but sometimes there were two to three people, and there were also people who didn't have time to be placed in other positions.
Daming is very nervous no matter which level of official position, not that there are not enough people, the main thing is that the position is not enough, people want to climb up, if they can't get a better position, then they would rather a few people squeeze into a position.
Secondly, there is Wang Ji, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, and Wang Ji is the same, he is also extremely close to the eunuch party.
The other deputy chief judge is Zhou Yingqiu, the secretary of Dali Temple.
One chief judge and four deputy chief examiners, all of whom have the attributes of eunuchs.
Today's three-hall trial is actually completely controlled by the eunuch party.
In terms of guards, although there are 300 servants in the Metropolitan Procuratorate and Dali Temple, Xu Xianchun, the commander of Jinyiwei, is the main case-handling person, so Jinyiwei will also bring many people.
Because there was a fierce conflict between the Fusi and the Metropolitan Procuratorate in Jinyi Weibei Town last time, this time, Jinyi Wei attached great importance to this three-hall trial.
It seems to be to prevent the recurrence of large-scale conflicts, and it seems to be a faint expectation of another large-scale conflict.
I even want to come to the Metropolitan Procuratorate and Dali Temple to provoke, and I want to come back to the field.
Therefore, this time, a thousand Jinyi guards came, and they were all armed, all carrying embroidered spring knives!
Not only that, but the Criminal Department also came with a large number of errand soldiers.
This time, the three sessions of the trial simply caught up with the martial arts conference.
Because Wei Bao is not the chief judge, he can only sit on both sides, and Wei Bao is also the only official who is only a fifth-grade official, but has a seat.
Others who are qualified to sit on both sides of the hearing are at least third-grade or above!
Wei Bao didn't worry about Yang Lian and Zuo Guangdou, because in history, these people didn't have to die at the beginning, and after the first trial, they were released.
It was these people who were not addicted to themselves, and they had to find Wei Zhongxian to wrestle their wrists again, so they finally ended up falling to the ground.
As long as people don't die, Wei Bao is easy to do.
Wei Bao is worried about Xiong Tingbi, because Xiong Tingbi has offended too many people, the eunuch party and the Donglin party do not want to see him, and the emperor does not like Xiong Tingbi, so Xiong Tingbi is almost a dead end in the eyes of outsiders.
From beginning to end, the difficulty is on Xiong Tingbi.
At the beginning, Wei Guangwei first asked Wang Huazhen and Xiong Tingbi to be brought, and the two of them bit indiscriminately.
The fault must be Wang Huazhen's big mistake, which can't be saved, Wang Huazhen's key is to bite Xiong Tingbi into the water.
Both of them were sentenced to beheading this month.
There are not many doubts.
Wei Bao also has no ability to help Xiong Tingbi's case overturned, what Wei Bao wants to do is to change Xiong Tingbi to exile, not to behead the autumn queen.
Therefore, when Wei Guangwei was about to announce the verdict and uphold the original verdict, Wei Bao stood up.
"Lord Wei, Xiong Tingbi's case is separated from Wang Huazhen, right? After all, the case waiting for the meeting is the main event! In this paragraph, Wang Huazhen was sentenced first and then beheaded, but Xiong Tingbi was not sentenced first! Wei Bao said.
Wei Guang looked at the other deputy chief examiners suspiciously, not knowing what tricks Wei Bao was going to do.
Luan Ruping, Zou Yuanbiao, Wang Ji, and Zhou Yingqiu also looked at each other, not knowing what Wei Bao was going to do.
However, their primary target today is Yang Lianzuo Guangdou, not Xiong Tingbi.
Wei Bao smiled slightly, took a few steps forward, came to Wei Guangwei and the others, and then waited for the others: "I have a few words to say to the chief judges, please wait for a while." ”
Everyone knows that Wei Bao is a new celebrity in front of the emperor, and Wei Bao speaks politely, so they all say Lord Wei to please.
Wei Bao beckoned, signaling Wei Guangwei, Luan Ruping, Zou Yuanbiao, Wang Ji, and Zhou Yingqiu to move closer.
A few first- and second-grade heavyweights who were at least sixty miles away had no choice, so they had to get up and get closer, not knowing what tricks Wei Bao was going to do, but there was no way to ignore Wei Bao.
Although Wei Bao is only a fifth-grade official, he is a celebrity in front of the emperor, who knows whether this is Wei Bao's meaning or the emperor's meaning.
"A few adults, Xiong Tingbi's guilt is really not enough to be a capital crime, and it is enough to sentence Wang Huazhen. If Xiong Tingbi is willing to take the initiative to bite out Yang Lian and them, it should be regarded as a meritorious plot, and Xiong Tingbi can be sentenced with them later, and Xiong Tingbi will be exiled. Wei Bao said what he meant directly.
Wei Guangwei frowned, "I'm afraid this is inappropriate, right?" Today is not to try the case of Xiong Tingbi and Wang Huazhen, but to mention by the way, Xiong Tingbi's case has long been public in the imperial court. ”
"Your Majesty wants to let Xiong Tingbi go, I don't want to chill the hearts of the army, if you can fight or not, it's the same, then who wants to fight in the future? Besides, this has nothing to do with our civil officials. Wei Bao squeezed his eyebrows and said.
Wei Guangwei, Luan Ruping, Zou Yuanbiao, Wang Ji, and Zhou Yingqiu couldn't say anything when they heard Wei Bao say that it was the emperor.
Indeed, whether Xiong Tingbi is dead or alive has very little impact on the Ming court, and it has no impact on them.
"But the nine thousand years old originally named to kill Xiong Tingbi, and he also framed people everywhere that he had given nine thousand years old filial piety silver, which was purely a fictitious thing, if he didn't have this stubble, it wouldn't necessarily be a capital crime at the beginning! Master Wei, I think about this, you better leave it alone, right? Zhou Yingqiu said.
"My lords, how can I not understand? I have already said that it is His Majesty's intention, so I will just pass on a word. Wei Bao said casually: "Anyway, my words have already reached now." ”
"So, what does Grandpa Wei mean? Do you want to put Xiong Tingbi a yard too? Zhou Yingqiu was puzzled: "Master Wei, such a big thing, why don't you know to say it to Nine Thousand Years Old?" What's the use of you telling us in court now? ”
"It's not that I didn't say it to Jiu Qiansui, Jiu Qianshi also approves, Jiu Qianshi naturally listens to Your Majesty, you don't care, wait until Xiong Tingbi is handed over to the Metropolitan Procuratorate Prison, I guarantee that Jiu Qiansui will not embarrass you." Wei Bao is very determined.
Several people looked at each other, and then they met their heads and had a small meeting.
In the end, he promised to wait for the interrogation to be completed, and Xiong Tingbi would not be escorted back to Jinyiwei Prison, but handed over to the Metropolitan Procuratorate for processing, which could be regarded as giving Wei Bao this face.
They knew that what Wei Bao would do in the end would still have to be decided by the cabinet and the celebrant in the book, and Wei Bao himself could not decide.
When Wei Bao heard them say this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and arched his hand: "There are a few adults. Then Yang Lian and Zuo Guangdou them, what are you going to do with them? Your Majesty has also entrusted me with responsibility. ’
"Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou, and they were also handed over to Master Wei?" Wei Guangwei was puzzled: "What does Master Wei want to do?" ”
"All the officials are dismissed and rush home, what else can I do? Do you still want to kill people? Regardless of whether the corruption is true or not, others can say that Yang Lianzuo Guangdou once made meritorious contributions when His Majesty ascended the throne, where can he be killed for a little bribe? Dismissal is the best option. It is also so as not to intensify the contradiction between us and Minister Donglin. When Wei Bao said this, he put himself in the position of the eunuch.
However, the closer Wei Bao is, the more confused these people become, Wei Zhongxian didn't say this to them before, according to Wei Zhongxian's meaning, the culprit Yang Lian must die!
Wei Zhongxian's sense of revenge was extremely strong, and Yang Lian's twenty-four crimes were sent to the entire capital, which not only created a great danger to Wei Zhongxian, but also caused great damage to Wei Zhongxian's reputation, and Wei Zhongxian had to be killed.
Wei Guangwei shook his head resolutely and said: "This is absolutely impossible, the rest of the people can say that Yang Lianzuo Guangdou and more than ten other main criminals must die!" The remaining twenty or so accomplices could be considered for exile. ”
Luan Ruping, Zou Yuanbiao, Wang Ji, and Zhou Yingqiu also mean the same, and they all think that Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou and others must be killed as the ministers of the Donglin Party.
The eunuch party and the Donglin party also completely fell out for a while, and they were red-eyed, and there was a text inventory that Wei Bao was doing, and the two sides reported each other through the text clearance, and they were very happy.
Each other killed and injured many of each other's ministers.
Speaking of which, the culprit of everything is none other than Master Wei in front of them.
It seems that since Master Wei joined the office, at least 1,000 officials in Beizhili have been dismissed.
And it seems like this is just the beginning.
Wei Bao didn't expect that Xiong Tingbi, who he thought would be difficult to save, was actually quite easy to save, although being placed in the prison of the Metropolitan Procuratorate may not be able to save Xiong Tingbi's life in the end, but there has been a major turnaround, and it can basically be said that Xiong Tingbi has been pulled back from the ghost gate.
But Yang Lianzuo Guangdou is much more troublesome.
This is something Wei Bao didn't expect at first.
"You like to complicate simple things, dismissal is already very heavy! That's it, those Donglin parties may not be able to agree, believe it or not, as soon as the verdict is announced, the hundreds of Donglin officials gathered outside will definitely make trouble! Wei Bao said.
Of course, they knew that there were a large number of Donglin officials gathered outside, headed by Lord Zhu Yanxi, the deputy assistant of the cabinet!
"Therefore, we must make a decision immediately, come to a decisive decision, and kill the prestige of the Donglin people!" Zhou Yingqiu said.
Wei Bao was shocked, he didn't expect these people to be so ruthless?
However, Wei Bao knows that history is generally not changed, it is very difficult to change, obviously in the original history, Yang Lian Zuo Guangdou and others were not killed at the beginning, but were rescued by the Donglin Party, and they were killed after another trouble.
And it was not a Ming canonical punishment, killed by the public, but was dragged to the Fusi Prison in Beizhen to death, and was tortured to death by Xu Xianchun and Sun Yunhe, a group of cool officials.
If you want to kill Yang Lian, it's not so easy.
Wei Bao is inconvenient to say that this is also the meaning of nine thousand years old, nine thousand years old has already handed over the life and death of Yang Lian and Zuo Guangdou and others to him, I want to see if history will really be changed?
"Then let it be, anyway, my words have already been brought, it is a few of you who have to make a big deal over a small matter, and when the time comes, Your Majesty and Father-in-law Wei will blame you, don't say that I didn't stop it." Wei Bao Road.
When Wei Bao said this, several people panicked a little.
"Master Wei, is it really nine thousand years old? If it's true, we can stop for now, and the old man himself will go and ask to see the nine thousand years old. Wei Guangwei is old-fashioned.
Several of the other deputy presiding judges all said that it was the safest.
Wei Bao smiled slightly, "Don't you know about nine thousand years old?" You go to find it at this time, especially if it is such a big thing as killing Yang Lian, the nine thousand years old will definitely say that you have your own idea! ”
