Chapter 893: Trial

With Zhu Xu's words, Dali Temple suddenly became tense and moved quickly.

The people outside the hall who were watching the excitement seemed to feel it, and they quieted down one after another, and their eyes looked into the hall.

From the side doors on both sides, two rows of officials walked out, standing on both sides with long sticks in their hands, each with a solemn expression and a cold face.

The people did not dare to speak, they were all quiet, looking at the lobby with burning eyes, waiting anxiously.

Not long after, from the right side of the lobby, Zhang Wenda, Shen Xun, and Lu Daqi walked out one after another, and then sat down on the chairs in turn, squinting slightly with expressionless faces.

When the people outside saw this scene, their expressions were slightly shocked, and then they began to talk in low voices.

"That's Zhang Shangshu from the Criminal Department, right? How did he get here? ”

"Yes, that is Shen Shangshu from the Ministry of Rites? He also came. ”

"That's Lu Shilang, right? Zhou Shangshu has already confirmed his transfer to Liaodong, and the new Zhao Shangshu has not yet arrived, so he is here......"

"This lineup is amazing, plus the chief judge is Wang Gelao, and the trial of Qian Qianyi has attracted so many big names......"

"But no, Qian Qianyi was escorted all the way from Nanzhili to Beijing, and no one has had this treatment all these years, right?"

"This time Qian Qianyi is dead, there has been no such movement in the previous few major cases, the ministers, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Justice, and the servants of the Ministry of Officials ......"

"Well, I've heard that there are a lot of people out there who want to rescue, and I guess there's still a bit of an argument......"

No matter how small the voice is, the place is so big, Zhang Wenda, Shen Xun, and Lu Daqi inside can hear it clearly. But the three of them are all well-cultivated, their faces are calm, they are sleeping as usual, and they don't move at all.

At this time, outside the Governor's Yuan, Qian Qianyi, who was dressed in prison clothes, was escorted out of the Governor's House and walked to the side gate of Dali Temple not far away.

The face of the leading messenger who had just walked a few steps changed suddenly, and he waved his hand and said in a deep voice, "Slow! ”

More than a dozen errand officers were stunned, turned their heads to look, and saw seven or eight young people in universal costumes not far away, looking at them with flickering eyes, walking around, and a reflection of light could be faintly seen behind them.

Everyone looked nervous, holding the hilt of their swords, and at the same time someone was recruiting.

Qian Qianyi's expression had always been calm, slightly pale, and his pupils were constricted. As long as these people make a move, he will have no chance to turn over, and it is possible to be killed on the spot!

Soon, more than twenty more fierce soldiers in the Governor's House rushed out, vigilant and rushed towards the seven or eight people.

The men looked at each other, and suddenly pulled their legs and ran.

"Give me chase!" The leading officer shouted, drew his sword, and chased after him.

More than twenty people swarmed out, chasing the seven or eight people. The leader's expression was very solemn, this is the concentration of the imperial court's yamen, and those who walk out casually may be three or four high-ranking officials, if they are injured and die, they will not have good fruits to eat, so they are in hot pursuit.

Qian Qianyi stood in place, his heart was secretly relieved, he glanced around, and said lightly: "Let's go." ”

When several officers of the Governor's House heard this, they hurriedly escorted Qian Qianyi to Dali Temple.

The Governor's Court and Dali Temple were no more than fifty meters apart, and several errand servants escorted Qian Qianyi into through the side door, and then they breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, in the side hall, Wang Qiaonian was wearing a newly made court dress, and stood in front of Zhu Xu with a slightly tight expression.

Zhu Xu hugged the teacup and said, "There is nothing to explain, try it truthfully, you will be sentenced to as many crimes as you want, everyone is watching, we also have to be above board, besides, we don't have anything to see." ”

Wang Qiaonian suddenly ascended to a high position, and now he is still very unsure, listening to Zhu Xu's words, pondering for a while, raising his hand and saying, "The minister obeys the order." ”

"Go, I'll hear it right here." Zhu Xu picked up the teacup and said.

"Yes." Wang Qiaonian responded, slowly retreated, and turned around and walked towards the lobby.

Cao Huachun glanced at it, approached and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, are you really not interfering?" Qian Qianyi has also been in the court for many years, and if he talks nonsense, it may cause unnecessary trouble to the 'New Deal'. ”

Zhu Xu laughed, squinted, and said slowly: "Don't worry, he doesn't dare." ”

Cao Huachun was stunned for a moment, then got up knowingly, and didn't ask any more questions.

Wang Qiaonian turned around and entered Dali Temple through the side door on the other side, followed by four people, all dressed in newly made official uniforms, with awe-inspiring expressions and a serious attitude.

Only then did everyone notice that the tables in the lobby were divided into five, the middle one was a little back, and the other four were a little forward, in a small arc shape.

Zhang Wenda and the three of them got up and turned slightly sideways at Wang Qiaonian, no matter what, this is also a cabinet assistant minister, who is also a cabinet minister, is higher in rank than him, in order to show respect.

Wang Qiaonian sat down, nodded at the three of them, looked around, suddenly slapped the startled wood, and said in a deep voice, "Silence!" Come on, bring money and be humble! ”

"Mighty!"

Two rows of officials tapped the killing rod and shouted loudly.

The people inside and outside the hall were all shocked, and looked down the back door.

As soon as the sound of the killing rod fell, Qian Qianyi was escorted out and walked slowly towards the center of the lobby.

The people outside, Zhang Wenda and others in the hall all looked at Qian Qianyi, who should be the first 'unlucky' 'imperial party', and no one was very calm in their hearts.

Qian Qianyi's expression was as usual, his hands and feet were shackled, he stepped forward slowly, glanced at Zhang Wenda, Shen Xun and others, raised his hand to Wang Qiaonian and said, "Xia Guan has seen Wang Ge Lao, Zhang Shangshu, Lord Shen, and Lu Shilang. ”

Zhang Wenda and several others were expressionless, they came this time to improve the standard of this trial, and they were not qualified to participate in the trial.

Wang Qiaonian's face was indifferent, Qian Qianyi was qualified not to kneel, and he didn't care, glancing at the person on the far right.

According to the rules of the trial in Dali Temple, one presiding judge, six jurors, Qian Qianyi is special, so he is four high-level jurors.

The jury stood up, held a piece of paper in his hand, glanced at Qian Qianyi, and said in a deep voice: "Qian Qianyi, the Governor's Yuan intends to accuse you of seven crimes, first: deceive the monarch and ignore the court; Second: embezzlement and bribery, and illegal acts; third, overstepping power and cultivating private individuals; Fourth: selling official positions and fraudulently taking the imperial examination; Fifth...... There are seven deadly sins in total, and you can plead guilty? ”

As soon as these seven charges came out, there was no reaction in the lobby, but the people outside whispered to each other.

"How are there only seven counts? Didn't you say thirty deadly sins? ”

"yes, Shichijo...... It's too little, how can Qian Qianyi say that he is also a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, this is really less! ”

"You say, is it true that someone framed him, so that he could not find more charges?"

"It's really possible, isn't there any news that this is a dumping within the imperial court, and it is possible to frame him ......"

"Smack!"

Wang Qiaonian slapped the hall suddenly, and shouted outside the hall: "Silence outside the hall!" ”

The people who were talking immediately stopped talking and looked at the hall with tense expressions.

Wang Qiaonian glanced at it, retracted his gaze, looked at Qian Qianyi, and said in a deep voice: "Qian Qianyi, can you confess?" ”

When this sentence fell, not only the chief judge, but the jury looked at him, Zhang Wenda, Shen Xun, and Lu Daqi also opened their eyes and looked at him.

They all hope that Qian Qianyi can happily admit his guilt, quickly conclude this case, completely settle it, calm people's hearts, and curb the criticism all over the world.

The people were nervous, looking at Qian Qianyi's back with burning eyes.

Qian Qianyi's expression did not move, he naturally couldn't admit his guilt, once he confessed, he would have nothing, his reputation, official career, and he would be in prison, and his life would be over.

The first article, deceiving the monarch and violating the program and discipline, there is actually nothing to refute in this article, it is a universal crime, and the key lies in the latter articles.

Corruption and bribery, Qian Qianyi thinks that he has never had it, he is not lacking, and he also cherishes feathers.

Unauthorized power, cultivating private individuals, these have never been, he has always been cautious.

Selling official positions, cheating in the imperial examination, this is the most troublesome, it is true, and it also involves Zhou Yanru back then, there are many people who know, but Zhou Yanru, Feng Quan and others have been executed a long time ago, and it can be regarded as a verdict a long time ago, the dust has settled, and there is no proof of death.

Everything else is refutable - that's why he's been calm!

As long as the matter can be argued, it is not considered dead, even if you go to prison today, there is a way to get out tomorrow!

"The lower official doesn't admit it!"

Qian Qianyi raised his hand and said lightly to Wang Qiaonian: "The lower official is innocent, and the most important name is the festival, please confront him." ”

Wang Qiaonian was not surprised, nodded and sat still.

The second jury on the right stood up, with a piece of paper in his hand, and said: "First, the Supervisory Yuan pointed out that Qian Qianyi was capricious, ignoring the imperial court discipline, law, and prohibitions, and holding the 'nine prohibitions' in the court, and openly marrying a famous prostitute in Qin Huai after the official office, which caused a huge shock in the government and the opposition, and the people were also criticized, the customs were corrupted, and public opinion was surging. ”

Qian Qianyi's brows moved slightly, he was no longer within the scope of the ban after he sent his opinion, the problem was the word 'capricious', but he also had a draft, raised his hand and said: "Go back to the old cabinet, the lower officials are not within the ban." And before the marriage, there were seven days of rumors, and it took six days to prepare, and three days before the wedding, the official also went to the governor's yamen in person, and there was no objection at that time, and the court did not stop it, why did he wait for more than ten days, and the official was arrested and detained at the time of the wedding? ”

The implication is that from the imperial court to Nanzhili, someone deliberately waited for him to enter the court, and it was a conspiracy to frame him!

As soon as Qian Qianyi's voice fell, the people outside whispered again.

"It turned out to be true, it was really someone in the court who framed ......"

"It must be, otherwise a squire, how can it be just seven crimes, ten or twenty are not much!"

"Then who do you say it will be, I have heard that Qian Qianyi and Sun Ge are in-laws, could it be that someone wants to bring down Sun Ge Lao? Take Qian Qianyi as a target? ”

"So, is someone in the cabinet trying to frame Qian Qianyi? That's a real possibility. ”

"Shhhhh

The people talked and speculated. The three of the jurors, Zhang Wenda, Shen Xun, and Lu Daqi, frowned secretly, and turned their heads to look at each other.

Qian Qianyi's words seem to be reasonable, but they are actually sophistry.

The reason why the Yamen, the governor of Nanzhili, did not stop it was because Qian Qianyi intervened, and they had no right to dispose of a former waiter of the Ministry of Rites!

Who knows if the rumor is true or false for seven days? Even if Qian Qianyi really decides, six days back and forth from Ying Tianfu to the capital is not enough!
