Is Yan Song really so poisonous?

Maybe there is, maybe not.

Many times, people are selfish, and this selfishness is not only reflected in actions, but also in thoughts.

Yan Song shouldn't think that he is poisonous in his heart, because his purpose is not to lure wolves into the house and make the people on the southeast coast miserable, his purpose is to control the entire southeast, so as to control overseas trade and seek huge profits.

As for the losses caused by pirates and pirates burning and looting along the coast, in his opinion, they may be trivial matters, and there is no such thing as poison or non-poison.

Many people are like this, only caring about their own interests, and not thinking about the lives of others at all.

Of course, at this time, regardless of whether Yan Song thinks he is poisonous or not, in the impression of many Zhejiang officials, he is already poisonous.

The arrest of Luo Longwen and the public interrogation were deliberately arranged by Yang Cong, and his target was Yan Song.

Originally, after Wang Zhi returned to obedience, he was ready to ask the court to play and make Wang Zhi the chief military officer of the Zhejiang Naval Division, but as soon as he heard Wang Zhi say about Luo Longwen, his thoughts changed again.

He found that this was a good opportunity, an opportunity to frame Yan Song.

Of course, in a strict sense, this is not a false accusation, because this incident of pirates and pirates raging on the southeast coast was originally caused by Yan Song, and if Yan Song had not deceived Wang Zhi into organizing pirates and pirates to plunder the southeast coast under the pretext of opening the sea ban, this kind of tragedy would not have happened at all.

Although Yan Song had no intention of making the people in the southeast coast miserable, the people in the southeast coast suffered a lot because of his greed.

At this time, Jiajing was still in the dark, but this time the pirates and pirates raging on the southeast coast were the same as before, and they were all caused by the greed of pirates and pirates, and it had nothing to do with Yan Song.

Of course, Yang Cong will not let Yan Song "get away with it", no matter what he says, he will also make Yan Song, the culprit, suffer a little.

Therefore, he decided to arrest Luo Longwen first, put all the pirates and pirates raging on the southeast coast on Yan Song's head, and then play the matter of Wang Zhi's submission to the court.

Wang Zhi originally didn't want to follow Yang Cong to Hangzhou, because he was afraid that he would not be able to get out as soon as he entered Yangzhou City, after all, he was not very familiar with Yang Cong, who knew if Yang Cong had tricked him into the urn.

However, Yang Cong's words made him change his mind.

Yang Cong said that the crime of organizing pirates and pirates to come to the southeast coast to burn, kill, and loot is too heavy, and if he returns to the imperial court with this crime, the imperial court is likely not to accept it.

This is indeed a fact, because the losses caused by the pirates and pirates on the southeast coast this time are so great that the casualties of the civilian population alone are tens of thousands, and if one life pays for one life, it is not enough for him to die ten thousand times.

Therefore, for the sake of insurance, Yang Cong persuaded him to put all the basins that organized pirates and pirates to come to the southeast coast to plunder Yan Song's head!

In this way, he doesn't have much responsibility, after all, as long as he puts all the pots on Yan Song's head, he will become a follower to Yan Song's orders to plunder the southeast coast, and he can't be regarded as the main culprit, he can only be regarded as a small minion, and there is no problem at all if he accepts the appeasement.

Of course, he didn't want to be charged with organizing pirates and pirates to come to the southeast coast to burn, kill and loot, this was not his original intention, he just mistakenly believed Yan Song, thinking that such a fuss would force the imperial court to reopen the sea ban, so he recruited all the other pirates and pirates.

Who knew that Yan Song never thought about reopening the sea ban at all, and the other pirates and pirates refused to stop easily when they tasted the sweetness, and they couldn't clean it up at this time.

He really didn't want to carry this pot, and he hadn't done anything hurtful, so for the sake of his "innocence", he came hard.

At this time, it seems that Yang Cong is interrogating, and he is answering, but in fact, the confession he confessed was all considered by Yang Cong in advance, and he just "answered" it in this court according to the script.

After his confession, it seemed that the matter of organizing pirates and pirates to come to the southeast coast to burn, kill and loot had nothing to do with him, and this matter was completely organized and planned by Yan Song, at least the Zhejiang officials present thought so.

However, this is not Yang Cong's ultimate goal, Zhejiang officials do not believe that this matter is not the point, and Jiajing does not believe that this matter is the point.

Therefore, after an interrogation, he did not pronounce Luo Longwen on the spot, he just ordered Luo Longwen to sign the confession, draw a charge, and then ordered someone to escort Luo Longwen down.

Luo Longwen may be desperate, after Wang Zhi came in, he didn't say a word again, even if Wang Zhi's confession was a little different from reality, he didn't say anything, he might think that he was dead, and if he quibbled, it was just a matter of being beaten and suffering from some flesh and skin, why bother.

This is also the reason why Yang Cong was indiscriminate at the beginning, and beat him when he caught him, Yang Cong just wanted to beat him and didn't dare to open his mouth!

After Luo Longwen was escorted, this matter was not over.

Yang Cong pretended to check the confession carefully, and then picked up the pen and solemnly signed the confession: Chief Judge, the right hand of the Imperial Procuratorate, the military department, the governor of Zhejiang, Yang Cong.

Immediately afterward, he wrote the word jury on the back.

Subsequently, he recruited the senior officials of the Third Division of Zhejiang one by one and asked them to sign their official positions and names, and then solemnly put away the confession.

This confession is the key, even if you can't bring down Yan Song, it's enough for this guy to drink a pot.

This time he is also out of the way, anyway, when he took office as the governor of Zhejiang, he was already facing Yan Song, even if he didn't start, Yan Song would definitely start to clean him up, it was better to strike first and give Yan Song a hard shot.

The head-to-head game between the two is officially begun, Yang Cong of course did not dare to take it lightly, he not only prepared a confession, but also wrote a letter in his own handwriting, asking Wang Zhi to be the chief military officer of the Zhejiang Navy Division, and told him what happened in the southeast.

In his "description", Wang Zhi is just a relatively influential sea merchant, not a pirate at all, nor a widow, there must be no problem in appeasing Wang Zhi, and Luo Longwen's incident was reported by Wang Zhi, and Wang Zhi can be regarded as a meritorious service.

At the same time, he also vaguely mentioned in the recital that he had asked Wang Zhi to appease the other pirates, but because he was not Yan Song's cronies, the other pirates did not sell it and refused to stop.

This is also a pot of for Yan Song, Yan Song will definitely not admit this in front of Jiajing, that is to say, Yan Song will not "order" to let other pirates and pirates stop, so that Yan Song, who continues to make trouble, will also have to carry the pot that other pirates and pirates continue to make trouble.

After this recital was written, he wrote a secret letter to Lu Bing, and after explaining it like this, everything was ready, and he asked Shen Lian to arrange that through the special channel of Jinyiwei, 800 miles of urgency to send the confession, recital and secret letter to the capital and send it to Lu Bing, and at the same time, he also arranged dozens of Jinyi guards, riding fast horses, to secretly escort Luo Longwen to the capital.
