Saying that, Fang Congzhe took out a few books from his sleeve and handed them down, Zhu Changluo glanced at Fang Congzhe and took the fold and said, "Oh? I don't know what made Elder Fang Ge so nervous, and he actually picked to hand over the fold today? Can't you wait for the end of the exercise? ”

Fang Congzhe heard the dissatisfaction in Zhu Changluo's words, and hurriedly said: "The old minister wanted to tell His Highness about this matter early in the morning, but His Royal Highness was busy with affairs and the old minister had to mention it at this time, and this matter involved Jingying, and it happened that the grandfather of the country was also at this time, so it would not be too abrupt to talk about it at this time." The stakes are so high that Your Highness will know at a glance. ”

Zhu Changluo's face changed suddenly after he opened a book, and then he picked up another book of impeachment for the same thing, he hurriedly opened the remaining books one by one, and then threw a few books in front of Zhang Weixian with both hands and said: "What a Beijing camp, Zhang Dudu is really well managed and his majesty is well-managed." ”

Zhang Weixian hurriedly knelt on the ground and picked up a notebook, and after reading it, he quickly got up and said: "Your Highness, there is another secret in this matter, the old minister wanted to tell His Highness on a certain day, but he didn't ...... it before he had time."

Zhu Changluo gritted his teeth and said, "So this is true?" ”

It's just that what everyone didn't pay attention to was that Zhu Changluo gave Luo Sigong a look.

Luo Sigong comprehended, and also picked up a book from the ground and looked at it: "Your Highness, Weichen also knows a little bit about this matter, as Zhang Dudu said, there is another hidden truth in this matter. ”

"Oh? What's the secret? ”

Zhang Weixian raised his head and said: "Your Highness, before Chen Zhuo, the old minister wanted to ask Lord Fang, the loss of the firearm of the treasurer of the Beijing camp is the secret of my Beijing camp, and even the governor of Luo Du and the old minister wasted a lot of effort to find out, I don't know how the few adults who impeached the old minister knew?" ”

Fang Shihong said: "Hmph, if people don't know, unless they don't do anything, the Beijing camp has a serious shortage of firearms, so naturally some people can't look past it and report it to a few adults." ”

Zhang Weixian said loudly to the back of a group of people, "Since Lord Fang brought up this matter at this time, why don't a few adults come forward and confront the old minister." ”

The impeachment of Zhang Weixian is not of high grade, the highest is only four grades, if it is the court standing class, it is just qualified to enter the court, or standing last, not to mention the position at this time, if it is not for the silence on the stage at this time, I am afraid that those people will not be able to hear what is happening in front of them.

It's just that at this time, even if a few people heard it, they cowered and didn't dare to step forward, originally this matter was instructed by Fang Shoufu to impeach them, let them come forward to confront them, how did they know how to get this news.

Seeing that a few people did not move, Zhang Weixian said loudly: "Why don't the adults even have the courage to step forward since they have participated in the old minister?" Is my Ming official so cowardly? ”

The imperial historians of the Inspectorate have always been known for daring to scold people and dare to take the court staff, where can they stand Zhang Weixian's contempt, so several people walked through the crowd to the front and said: "We are waiting to participate in all the lawlessness, how can there be a time when we dare not speak up?" At this time, we have heard it with our own ears, since the grandfather of the country has already recognized it, what are you going to confront us? ”

"I just want to know who reported the old minister to you, but these two people?" , Zhang Weixian said and raised his hands and patted hard.

Then I saw a few armored soldiers holding two people hostage, and the crowded ministers came to the front of the crown prince Zhu Changluo.

These two people are none other than General Liu Cheng and General Shi Fuxing.

Those few imperial historians had never been in contact with these two people, let alone the news that the two of them had passed through with them, but Fang Congzhe on the side saw that these two people were tied up, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes.

One of the imperial historians surnamed Chen said: "We are responsible for the imperial historians, so the prince of the country should explain it to His Royal Highness, as for how we know about it, I won't bother the prince." ”

Zhang Weixian had already guessed that Fang Congzhe was in the middle of it, and at this time, he was even more convinced when he saw Fang Congzhe's flustered eyes, so he didn't bother with these officials, and turned to the crown prince Zhu Changluo and said: "Your Highness, the loss of the firearms of the treasurer of the Beijing camp was done by these two people, and the old minister did not investigate for a while, so that these two people took advantage of the loopholes, and made things like eating inside and out, colluding with Fanbang, fortunately with the help of Governor Luo, he was able to recover these firearms in time, and the details of Jiannu sneaking into the capital were all wiped out, please punish Your Highness." It's just that at this time, Lao Chen felt that there was something strange, how did these two people come into contact with the Jurchens when they were stationed in Beijing? ”

Zhu Changluo said: "It is inevitable that there will be some scum anywhere, since Guogong can't ask anything, then these two people will be handed over to the Beizhen Prefecture Department to investigate, although Guogong is responsible for this matter, but fortunately, he can recover the loss in time......"

Fang Congzhe heard that Zhu Changluo had the intention of not pursuing it, and hurriedly interrupted and said: "Your Highness, rewards and punishments for merit and demerits should not be similar or different, if such a big thing is revealed, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public." ”

Luo Sigong stepped forward and said: "Your Highness, according to the minister's investigation, this matter is not limited to Jingying, this matter is very wide-ranging, and no matter how these two people came into contact with the Jurchens, even if the Jurchens came to the door, such a huge firearm is not something that these two people can easily hide from the world, and the transaction process and the recovery of these firearms are even more complicated, among which a hundred households of the right guard of the government army are also suspected of collaborating with the enemy, since the recovery of this batch of firearms, the minister tortured the suspects of the Jurchens and the right guard of the government army, according to their confessions, This matter is inseparable from the command of the right guard of the government army, which made Pan Limei, and they also said......"

"What else?"

"They also said that Lord Fang had a long history with the Jurchens."

As soon as Luo Sigong's words came out, Fang Congzhe pointed at Luo Sigong's beard and said angrily: "Nonsense, it's just nonsense, and blood is spurting." Please also ask Your Highness to be clear, the old minister has always been clean and self-conscious, how could he be involved with Jiannu, I heard that Luo Gongzi and the British princess have a good relationship, isn't it that the old minister is impartial and straightforward, but he was bitten? Lord Luo's words are unfounded, please come up with tangible evidence, otherwise Lord Luo is so smearing the old man's innocence, and the old man will fight with Lord Luo even if he fights for this old life. ”

Luo Sigong hurriedly reassured: "This is the Jurchens who are biting at will, wanting to destroy my Da Ming Pillar Stone, Lord Fang doesn't have to take it seriously, but there is full evidence of the matter of the right guard of the government army, and the Ordnance Bureau is also involved, although the Ordnance Bureau does not have access to foreign countries, but on the ordnance casting, it is shoddy, stealing beams for pillars, and falsifying the accounts, these charges cannot be escaped." As for the others, ......", Luo Sigong said and kicked Shi Fuxing, who was kneeling beside him, in the face, and then said angrily: "Who else is involved, you had better explain honestly, otherwise you will go to prison, and you will have no chance to say it." ”

Shi Fuxing was kicked by Luo Sigong and fell to the ground on his back, and finally got up and continued to kneel on the ground, although he said that he had seen countless soldiers, but the scene of all the dignitaries and nobles gathered together was the first time he had experienced, and he couldn't help but feel a little nervous in his heart.

Liu Cheng on the side scolded loudly, "Shi Baihu, use your brains to think about it." ”

Luo Sigong was overjoyed when he saw that Shi Fuxing wanted to confess, but he wanted to be interrupted by Liu Cheng, so he was immediately furious, and he raised his foot and wanted to kick it.

Liu Cheng slowly stood up as if he didn't see it and said, "Shi Baihu doesn't know much about this matter, so it's better for me to talk about it." ”

Luo Sigong calmed down a little at this time, and snorted: "Count you as acquaintances." ”

Liu Cheng looked around the generals on the stage and said: "I think I, Liu Cheng, have been in Rong for 20 years, and I am also dedicated to serving the country, I am willing to shroud the body of horse leather and bury bones in the green mountains, from the local guard to the nine sides and then to the Beijing camp, large and small, I have also fought more than ten battles, and I saw those fellow brothers die on the battlefield, but what did I get in exchange?" In the end, the names of those vivid faces were not even known, and their relatives were deducted even their pensions by you who eat people and do not spit out bones. Shanxi, Shaanxi, Shandong and other places were affected by the disaster, and there was no harvest in the field, and I saw with my own eyes a brother who died in the war in Datong's family, the whole family of seven, the old man who was over eighty years old, and the child who just walked was starved to death at home. And what did they get in exchange? It's you people who are loud and sound, singing and dancing. ”

Liu Chengruo laughed frantically and said, "This Beijing camp is rotten, is it just rotten from the two of us?" Wrong, big mistake, Jingying claims to be an army of 300,000, but how many can there be? What about the others? All of you people have eaten empty quotas, the generals don't think about fighting, but they use the soldiers to build, the soldiers don't think about war, and they have become the watchdogs of the dignitaries, an ordnance bureau, which was supposed to supply weapons and materials, but has become a fat sheep that everyone wants to bite, and these creamy and delicious firearms, if I don't take a bite, how can I be worthy of those brothers who died in battle? ”

After listening to Liu Cheng's words, everyone present was silent, because none of the people present were completely innocent, and at this time, a childish voice behind the crown prince Zhu Changluo said: "Liu Cheng, you keep complaining about injustice, but in the end, you are not reduced to the same goods as those people?" What do you mean by the silverfish in your mouth, and in the end, you haven't lived your most hated life? ”

Liu Cheng looked at the person who spoke, and laughed: "There are many nobles in the hall, but only one child dares to speak out, isn't this my sorrow?" Liu Cheng pointed to the child who was talking and said: "I know you, you are the fifth son, I didn't expect that I, Liu Chengcheng, would lose in the hands of a child, but I was not unjustly defeated." Liu Cheng withdrew his hand and continued: "Yes, I, Liu, have indeed lived like a beast, collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, eating inside and out, this is something that Liu Cheng never dared to think about, but I did it, why?" I, Liu, endured disgusting and did cheap things, sold firearms privately, and made a total of 2.6 million taels of profits many times, but I can swear to the sky, I Liu someone did not touch a penny of this money, and all this silver was given to the relatives of those soldiers who died in the war, and the relatives died in other places and have been hurt, I don't want the court to hurt them again, this pension is not given by the court, and I Liu someone gave it. Hahahaha......"

Luo Sigong said: "Liu Cheng, don't say something insignificant, quickly explain who is involved." ”

Liu Cheng stepped up to Luo Sigong and stared at his eyes and said, "It doesn't matter? It doesn't seem to you to matter, but in my opinion, it's the number one thing in the world. ”

Luo Sigong was stared at by Liu Cheng, and couldn't help but take half a step back, avoiding the eyes that looked directly at him, although this was a prisoner who had committed a heinous crime, but his eyes were clear and scared him.

At this moment, a sudden change occurred, Liu Cheng took advantage of the moment when Luo Sigong avoided it, snatched the embroidered spring knife that Luo Sigong hung on his waist, and then turned around and stabbed Shi Fuxing's heart, and said with grief in his eyes: "Brother go first, explore the way for me in front." ”

There was a panic on the stage, and everyone hurriedly stood in front of Zhu Changluo and shouted: "Protect the prince." ”

Liu Cheng didn't pay any attention to the chaotic crowd, just looked at Zhu Youzhen and said: "It's not that I don't want to say it, but I can't say it, the relatives of those Pao Ze brothers are in the hands of others, and I, Liu, can't say it even if I die." ”

Seeing that Liu Cheng had no intention of assassinating, everyone quieted down a little.

Liu Cheng raised the embroidered spring knife and shouted: "I was born as a human being, I'm sorry. After speaking, he raised the embroidered spring knife and wiped it towards his neck.
