Chapter 121: The Magnificent Frame
Zhou Zheng didn't speak, and the court seemed to be relieved, and the indifferent aura was alleviated.
Tianqi on the dragon chair sat up straight and looked at Zhou Zheng quietly.
Li Hengbing's face was expressionless, he continued to look at Zhou Zheng, and said, "You don't know anything about Liaodong, what you say and do is just delusional out of thin air. Your heart for the country is good, but you are too young, ascended to a high position early, and are eager to invite fame, which will not only harm you, but also seriously mislead the country's political ......"
Li Hengbing is posing as a senior and a boss, and he is condescending to teach Zhou Zheng. Explicitly or implicitly, it was pointed out that Zhou Zheng, the official, was bought by Zhou Qingli with money.
Zhou Zheng glanced at him, raised his head, and said, "What the lower official said and did was delusional?" Didn't you enter the customs before Jianyu? Is it just once or twice? The first few times were temptations, can you guarantee that the next time will be temptations? Can you guarantee it? What can you guarantee? You're kidding me Daming Jiangshan Sheji! In this Jinluan Palace, in front of the emperor and all the adults, do you dare to guarantee it? ”
Zhou Zheng's tone became higher and higher as he asked questions, and the last sentence resounded through the Jinluan Palace, echoing endlessly.
Li Hengbing's eyes widened angrily, and there was a rare hint of redness on his face.
But he couldn't answer immediately, Jianyu had indeed entered the customs a few times, but the scale was very small.
The ministers were affected by Zhou Zheng's voice, many people looked at him, and many people frowned and thought about it.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse on the dragon chair leaned back, and there seemed to be a smile on his face.
Li Hengbing was just stunned by Zhou Zheng's series of questions, and quickly came to his senses and said coldly: "Jianyu wants to enter the customs?" Where to enter? The elite soldiers of the nine-sided important towns are gathered, and the fierce generals are like clouds, aren't they afraid that they will be left behind by my Ming Dynasty and the whole army will be wiped out? Hmph, alarmist and can't stand scrutiny, do you think that just these few words can bluff the princes of the Manchu Dynasty and deceive the emperor? Hmph, young man, I advise you to be down-to-earth, serious and pragmatic, don't be too ambitious, invite fame with rebellious words, there has been no good end since ancient times! ”
Zhou Zheng's expression remained unchanged, his tone was cold, and he said: "If I really have elite soldiers and strong generals in the Ming Dynasty, why do you insist on giving up Liaoxi and retreating to Shanhaiguan?" If Jianyu has an army of 100,000 and suddenly enters the customs, dare to ask Master Li, where do you transfer troops from? Which troop to transfer? How is Gyeonggi guarded? How sure are you that you can keep them? Is what the lower official said about rebelliousness? The lower officials are now being shouted and beaten by everyone? No matter how this matter is handled, I'm afraid that the lower officials won't be able to be officials, right? Is there anyone in the world who invites a name like Xiaguan? ”
Li Hengbing has been in the government for many years, and he has some understanding of the situation of the government and the opposition, and he is naturally familiar with the situation of the Ming army, but Zhou Zheng's few words of questioning still blocked his mouth.
Looking at the entire Ming Dynasty, there is actually no formed army, except for Liaodong!
If there is a civil unrest in Shaanxi, it only relies on the local government to suppress it, and if it is big, the imperial court will send a governor to rectify military affairs, recruit soldiers, and train them into an army.
Now if Li Hengbing wants to find a strong army to resist, or even eliminate Jianyu, Li Hengbing can't find it!
The Manchu Dynasty was also quiet for a while, and they were also thinking about Zhou Zheng's words.
In addition to Liaodong, where is there a standing army in the Ming Dynasty, which can be called at any time?
At this time, Sun Chuanting's 'Qin Army' and Lu Xiangsheng's 'Tianxiong Army' did not have a shadow.
The apocalypse on the dragon chair sat upright, looking at Zhou Zheng with blazing eyes, and then glanced at the ministers, his brows furrowed unconsciously.
Li Hengbing saw that Zhou Zheng was so-for-tat that he couldn't find a way to die, took a deep breath, raised his hand to the apocalypse, and said: "Your Majesty, the minister impeached Zhou Zheng, the superintendent of Zhejiang Province, and communicated with the deputy chief soldier of Jinzhou, Man Gui, and plotted against him. ”
Zhou Zheng's face changed suddenly, and his eyes stared at Li Hengbing straight and indifferently.
Li Hengbing, finally broke his ethics and began to frame him!
I have to say that Li Hengbing's framing is very terrifying. Whether it is the collusion between the border generals with heavy troops and the civilian officials, or the civilian officials have 'personal relations' with these generals, if they are magnified, it is a misconspiracy and a capital crime!
If this is the Chongzhen Dynasty, I am afraid that Chongzhen will be furious at this time and directly put Zhou Zheng in prison to death!
Sure enough, Li Hengbing's voice fell, and there was a buzzing sound in the court, and some people looked at Zhou Zheng with extremely cold eyes, with a chill.
The adults in front of them turned their heads quietly, and glanced at Zhou Zheng without knowing what their expressions were.
The apocalypse on the dragon chair could no longer remain silent, and said lightly: "What evidence?" ”
Apocalypse's tone was flat, bland with indifference.
Xiong Tingbi bribed the internal supervisor at the beginning, and was executed by him, and passed on the nine sides, if there were civil officials colluding with the border generals, he would not show mercy!
As long as anyone threatens the Zhu family, he will not be polite!
Li Hengbing regained his indifferent expression, took out two letters from his arms, raised his hands, and said, "These are two letters intercepted by the minister, one is Man Gui and the other is Zhou Zheng. ”
Everyone in the hall looked at Li Hengbing, looked at the two letters he held up in his hand, and then turned their eyes to Zhou Zheng.
Many of them looked at Zhou Zheng who was already looking at the eyes of a dead man, and Li Hengbing took out such a letter in this place, and no one would suspect that it was fake.
Hu Qingzheng looked at the letter held by Li Hengbing, then looked at Zhou Zheng, quietly swallowed his saliva, the corners of his face moved strangely, and kept blinking.
He didn't know whether the two letters were true or false, but how could Zhou Zheng, a nineteen-year-old young man who had just entered the office, collude with Man Gui who was far away in Liaodong in a short period of time, and what would Man Gui do with this little inspector who had only been in the office for a month?
Doesn't make sense?
Besides, what collusion can a small seven-rank inspector have with the border generals, and how big of a deal can it be? Can you really plot against it?
If you put it outside, no matter who you are, you will shake your head and laugh and disdain to listen to it.
But this is the Jinluan Palace, it is the Ming Dynasty meeting, Li Hengbing shouted the word 'traffic' very seriously, and took out two letters, so no one will question it.
Who would dare to frame others at will on the Golden Luan Palace?
Zhou Zheng looked at the two letters in Li Hengbing's hand, although he knew that they were fake, his face was not half relaxed. Li Hengbing actually used such a method in this place, and he must have been completely sure.
How can he break the game?
A trace of cold sweat appeared on Zhou Zheng's head, and his eyes flashed rapidly. He knew that if he lost, not only Da Ming might give up the Liaoxi Corridor, but he and the Zhou family would have to be buried with him!
Tianqi, who was sitting on the dragon chair, looked down from afar, not knowing what his expression was, and for a while, he said in a flat tone: "Give it to Zhou Zhengyun." ”
The inner prisoner, who had already gone down, paused and turned back.
Li Hengbing's expression did not move, he said 'obey', straightened up, handed the two letters to Zhou Zheng, looked directly at Zhou Zheng, his eyes were indifferent, and he couldn't see any other emotions.
Zhou Zheng tried his best to be calm, looked at the two letters, and did not answer.
Li Hengbing's expression was calm, and he said, "You still have to quibble?" You can find someone to check your handwriting. When Man Gui arrives in Beijing tomorrow, he can also let you confront each other in court. ”
As soon as Li Hengbing's voice fell, someone not far away directly said in a deep voice: "Look at his expression, what is it right, I think he will go directly to prison, and when Man Gui enters Beijing, he will be arrested directly and handed over to the three divisions for interrogation!" ”
Zhou Zheng glanced at it, it was an official uniform in the matter.
Without waiting for anyone else to speak, Tianqi's voice sounded again: "Zhou Qing, don't you have anything to say?" ”
The subtext of this sentence is, you explain quickly, explain quickly, and if you don't explain, I will go to prison for you.
