In the court of the Nanjing Criminal Department, the interrogation had ended, but Yang Cong and several jury officials still sat there and did not leave, because Tu Dashan's confession had yet to be signed and confirmed by several jury officials.

Tu Dashan did not admit guilt, and there is a big difference between whether this confession is signed by several jury officers or not.

If they sign it, it means that they support Yang Cong, then they not only offended Tu Dashan, but even Yan Song, the first assistant of the cabinet, was offended together.

If they don't sign, it means that they support Tu Dashan, then they not only offend Yang Cong, but also Yang Ming.

In this whole matter, several jury officers really have a feeling that they are not human inside and out.

So, they are hesitant.

Is it on Yang Cong's side or on Tu Dashan's side?

If you look at the situation in Nanzhili, they naturally want to stand on Yang Cong's side, because Yang Cong is the governor of Zhejiang at this time, and if he offends others, he may wear small shoes every minute.

However, standing on Yang Cong's side means standing on the opposite side of Tu Dashan, behind whom there is Yan Song, the first assistant of the cabinet, who offends others, and is also facing the danger of wearing small shoes at all times.

So, which side are you on?

The confession was circulated by everyone with false intentions, and Zhang Shiche, the secretary of the Nanjing Criminal Department, did not hesitate to sign his name on the confession, but the other three jury officials hesitated and did not mention the pen for a long time.

Yang Cong was not in a hurry, he took the account book of Longjiang Shipyard and looked at it carefully, looking very interested, and he didn't know whether he was really looking at the account book, or waiting for several other jury officers to sign.

After a long while, Zhou Yong, the left capital of the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate, finally couldn't help but speak: "My lord, Tu Dashan refuses to admit his guilt, what are you going to do?" ”

This means, obviously, no one pleads guilty, so what's the use of you taking this evidence?

Since this evidence is of little use, your old man will raise your noble hand and spare us.

You immortals fight, don't drag us little devils into the water!

When Yang Cong heard this, he glanced at him lightly, and then said with a little seriousness: "Zhao Wenhua and Lord Zhao don't seem to admit their guilt, right?" The result? ”

When several jury officials heard this, their faces couldn't help but change.

How is it?

Zhao Wenhua was forced to commit suicide!

Although Zhao Wenhua was seriously ill and died on the surface, they all knew in their hearts that Zhao Wenhua had eaten rhubarb and pulled himself to death!

At this time, they suddenly realized that the maritime tycoon was probably over, and if Yan Songru, the first assistant of the cabinet, wanted to keep the maritime tycoon, why didn't he even protect his godson Zhao Wenhua?

Obviously, Yan Song doesn't want to protect the maritime merchants, or rather, he just can't protect it if he wants to.

Zhao Wenhua committed suicide, did Tu Dashan escape again?

Obviously, Tu Dashan can't escape!

The facts are in front of him, what else is there to hesitate about, Zhou Yong heard this, no longer hesitated, and quickly picked up the pen and signed his name.

Seeing this, the other two also followed suit and took the confession and signed their names.

Yang Cong got the confession signed and confirmed by the four people, and he couldn't help but be sure that the maritime tycoon was finally finished, and the southeast woe was almost over.

The confessions of Xie Shixian and Tu Dashan soon spread to the capital, and this time, Yang Cong still asked Gu Kexue to come out and personally sent the confession to Jiajing.

Gu Kexue is this guy, if you want to talk about governing the country and the country, it is a piece of shit, but if you want to talk about pit people, it is indeed a good hand, sometimes, even Yan Song is not his opponent, Yang Cong naturally wants to make the best use of people and let him play well.

Gu Kexue received Yang Cong's secret letter and confessed, and even went into the palace to find Jiajing.

After he respectfully performed the courtesy of the monarchs and ministers, he pretended to be filled with righteous indignation, and said bitterly: "Your Majesty, Weichen really didn't expect that the maritime tycoon would be so mad!" ”

What kind of mess is this?

Jiajing thought that Gu Kexue was here to discuss the matter of refining medicine with him, but he never thought that this guy suddenly said such a sentence.

He said a little inexplicably: "Oh, what's wrong with the maritime giants?" ”

When Gu Kexue heard this, he took out the confessions of Xie Shixian and Tu Dashan from his arms, and said with a little indignation: "This is passed down by Lord Yang from Nanzhili, and the emperor understands it at a glance." ”

Yang Cong?

This guy seems to have just been to the southeast for a few days, has the southeast been in the sky so soon?

When Jiajing heard this, he curiously took the confession in Gu Kexue's hand and looked at it carefully.

After he finished reading Xie Shixian's confession, his face was already angry, this pirate and the widow were indeed instructed by the so-called "maritime giants" such as the Yuyao Xie clan and the Ningbo Tu clan!

Although he had already judged this matter, it was all judged according to other people's performances, and he hadn't seen the confession of the maritime tycoon, because Zhao Wenhua suddenly became seriously ill and died before he was escorted back to Beijing.

Originally, he was still a little worried that he was wrong to blame others, but now, he was completely relieved that these so-called "maritime tycoons" were treacherous villains who would do whatever it took to achieve their goals.

However, it was a bit unexpected for Ying Tian to patrol Tu Dashan to be a person from a wealthy maritime business, or rather, he didn't pay attention to the identity of Ying Tian Governor at all.

These people are really powerful, they have monopolized the positions of governors and governors, and he is still kept in the dark!

Originally, he thought that Xie Shixian's confession would explain everything, the pirates and pirates who ravaged Suyang Erfu were instigated by Yuyao Xie and Ningbo Tu, and later, Tu Dashan's confession was estimated to be just a confirmation of all this.

But he never thought that when Yang Cong was trying to slaughter the mountains, he was involved in the problem of warships, muskets and artillery, and these guys actually built warships and supplied muskets and artillery to pirates and pirates!

It is no wonder that the two prefectures of Suyang are in a hurry everywhere, and many places in the state capital and county have been attacked, it turns out that the equipment of pirates and pirates is even better than that of the guards of the coastal capital, and these equipment are still provided by the maritime giants!

These guys are just lawless!

When he saw this, he was already enough to nest fire, but he never thought that Tu Dashan would pull Yan Song out and threaten Yang Cong.

Yang Cong was even more direct, and even asked people if he had bribed Yan Song!

Yan Song accepted bribes, Jiajing had heard about this for a long time.

Originally, he thought that Yan Song was just going with the flow, unwilling to break the rules of officialdom, and just accepting some bribes, but he never thought that Yan Song would dare to accept any money!

Is this true?

Jiajing couldn't help but ask: "Yucheng, Qingfeng said that Tu Dashan bribed Weizhong, do you think this is possible?" ”

Gu Kexue pretended to be sincere, and said "honestly": "Your Majesty, this matter is obviously true, otherwise, how could he be so quickly promoted to the squire of the Nanjing Military Department and the governor of Yingtian." You know, Weichen is a Jinshi in the eighteenth year of Hongzhi, and when he was in his grade, Weichen was just a penniless senator. Officialdom has the rules of officialdom, if the general official does not get the emperor's favor, the promotion is basically step-by-step, and it is basically impossible to be promoted to the high position of the six servants in ten years, even if it is Yan Songyan himself, who has been in the officialdom for more than 20 years, he is just a Nanjing Guozi priest wine. ”

What he meant, it is obvious that Yan Song is unscrupulous in accepting bribes and breaking the rules of officialdom!

When Jiajing heard this, his face couldn't help but stagnate, is this Yan Song really so unscrupulous in accepting bribes?
