The Great Hall of the Four Peoples.

"Take someone to commit it!"

In the middle of the round venue, on the trial platform that was originally renovated from a speaking seat, the people's judge Zhu Dadian slapped the hall and shouted.

He was wearing a red robe......

This must be formalized, after all, the future is to be institutionalized, there must be a specially designed robe, since the Ming national color is red, then of course it must be red. A sign of the white sun and yellow moon hugging together on the chest, the dragon hugging the sun and the moon flag is also like this, the white sun and yellow moon are synthesized into a circle, and there is no need for any decorations, but the shoulders should be padded, the body shape should be repaired, and heavy fabrics should be used, in short, the style is enough to reflect the majesty.

Wear the crown of virtuous people.

But different from the number of beams of the official into the virtuous crown, this one simply has no beam.

The Liang Guan of the Ming Dynasty system went from the seven beams of the first grade to the one beam of the ninth grade, but since the people's judge was not an official, it was better to simply have no beams, not only no beams but also no high-grade materials, without any gold and jade inlays, and completely iron black. In fact, it is true that many parts are iron, which is the color of the real law, and gold and gems do not represent the law, but the strictness of black iron is the law.

Zhu Dadian, who was wearing an iron crown and a red robe, looked at the emperor who was escorted with majestic eyes......

"Faint King!"

"Traitor!"

……

The shouts followed.

"Silence!"

He slapped the wood and shouted.

The shouts immediately stopped, and everyone watched as the Emperor was escorted to the judgment seat, and then put his handcuffed hands in front of him, and the escort next to him opened the handcuffs.

"Your Majesty!"

Zhu Dadian and the three of them stood up and bowed their heads and said.

"Since you call me Your Majesty, how dare you do this to me?"

Zhu Cihong moved his wrist and sneered.

"Your Majesty, you were still the Ming Emperor before you were convicted, and all subjects are called Your Majesty, but recognizing your identity does not mean that you cannot be judged, as long as you commit a crime, even if you are the emperor, you must be punished by the law. The law, the law of the country, both the monarch and the people should abide by it, and those who break the law should also be punished together, and the prince who violates the law should be guilty of the same crime as the common people! ”

Zhu Dadian said.

"You're also an old minister of the first emperor, right?"

Zhu Cihong said.

"Your Majesty said that the first emperor, if the first emperor knows what Your Majesty has done in the spirit of heaven, how should you treat Your Majesty?"

Zhu Dadian said.

Zhu Cihong was silent.

Zhu Dadian and the three of them sat down again.

The trial officially began, Wang Fuzhi read the complaint as a people's prosecutor, and he was also dressed in a red robe, but instead of a Jinxian crown on his head, a square scarf representing that he still belonged to a civilian.

The complaint was read quickly.

"Your Majesty can plead guilty?"

Zhu Dadian said.

"I don't know about the covenant, Ding Kuichu, Qian Qianyi, King Qi, and Mao Qiling did it privately."

Zhu Cihong said slowly.

"Take four criminals!"

Zhu Dadian said.

The four of them were brought over immediately, but only King Qi walked in with him, Ding Kuichu and Qian Qianyi were brought in, and Mao Qiling was simply dragged in. Although he has obviously changed into a new prison uniform and the wounds have been cleaned, the worst Mao Qiling can still see scars on his face, and most of the teeth in his mouth have obviously been missing. However, this is the practice of Beiya, and the teeth are usually extracted first after entering, which is to avoid them biting their tongues, although biting their tongues generally does not die, but those bastards in Beiya are obviously not interested in playing with them, so they go in and pull out the front teeth, canines and the like first.

King Qi honestly walked to the accomplice seat, Ding Kuichu and Shui Tailiang were carried over, and they also stood firm in front of him, and Mao Qiling was dragged over and directly put on the seat.

There was a burst of joyful laughter all around.

"According to His Majesty's words, the four of them did it privately, and Your Majesty did not know whether this matter was true."

Zhu Dadian said.

"This matter is indeed done by the four of us in private!"

Qian Qianyi said as much as possible to maintain his demeanor.

"Then where did Your Majesty's signature come from?"

Zhu Dadian said.

"This is Mao Qiling holding His Majesty hostage with a knife and forcing His Majesty to sign, we just did not stop it, if the judge is guilty of this crime, we dare not escape his responsibility and are willing to be punished, but Your Majesty is indeed innocent. Mao Qiling held His Majesty's neck with a knife, and His Majesty had to act according to his words, and the fault was Mao Qiling, not His Majesty. ”

Qian Qianyi said.

"Witness Dou Mingming General!"

Zhu Dadian said.

Immediately afterwards, Dou Mingwang walked in and walked directly to the witness stand.

"General Dou, according to Qian Qianyi, Your Majesty is not interested in the matter of fornicating with slaves, and the signature on the covenant is also done by Mao Qiling, but according to the testimony provided by the general, Your Majesty has personally admitted in front of King Tang that no one has taken him hostage, is this true?"

Zhu Dadian asked.

"It's true, I wasn't the only one who heard it at that time, the King of Tang, the Duke of Qianguo, and the scholar Wang Yingxiong hired by His Majesty, nearly a thousand soldiers in our department can testify, and the King of Tang specially questioned His Majesty in the capacity of the clan, whether the act was caused by the abduction of Mao Qiling and others, and His Majesty personally replied no. And at that time, our department had entered the palace, and no one had seen His Majesty kidnap, if His Majesty was really hijacked by Mao Qiling and others, as long as His Majesty said a word, our soldiers could be captured for His Majesty, but His Majesty did not have any orders, so it can be seen that Mao Qiling and others hijacked His Majesty is pure fiction. ”

Dou Mingwang said.

"What King Tang asked is not an alliance, but His Majesty imprisoned him and the Duke of Qianguo and issued an order to give him suicide!"

Ding Kuichu said.

"Why did Your Majesty give King Tang and the Duke of Qianguo to commit suicide?"

Xia Yunyi asked.

"This matter has nothing to do with this case!"

Zhu Dadian stopped him from crooking the building.

"Bring someone to commit Ding Qixiang!"

He went on to say.

Ding Qixiang was immediately escorted in, but he did not suffer any torture, and stood honestly on the accomplice's seat.

"According to your confession, the matter of the covenant was done by His Majesty, and no one held it hostage, but Qian Qianyi and others all claimed that His Majesty was hijacked by Mao Qiling, how do you explain this?"

Zhu Dadian said.

"The prisoner's previous confession is true, the prisoner's secret letter to the northern capital to see Dorgon, and the covenant he carried this time are all signed by His Majesty, and no one has coerced His Majesty. Qian Qianyi and others wanted to shield His Majesty, so they lied that His Majesty was coerced by Mao Qiling, Mao Qiling followed His Majesty's request but was rich and noble, if he really dared to hold His Majesty hostage to sign, then the day His Majesty succeeded was also the day he exterminated the clan, if His Majesty could not succeed and he could not escape the annihilation of the clan, then what did he ask for holding His Majesty hostage? ”

Ding Qixiang said.

Zhu Cihong looked at him in amazement.

Then His Majesty the Emperor turned his gaze to Ding Kuichu.

Ding Kuichu showed a wry smile, it was obvious that this result was very unexpected, but he also understood the reason.

"You traitor!"

Zhu Cihong angrily reprimanded Ding Qixiang.

"Your Majesty betrayed the country, why should you blame your ministers for betraying Your Majesty?"

Ding Qixiang said calmly.

"Haha!"

Suddenly, Mao Qiling, who was sitting there, let out a wild laugh, and everyone's eyes immediately turned to him, and they saw him slowly raise his head and look at Zhu Cihong and Ding Qixiang with a hint of madness.

"Your Majesty, this is really a good show!"

He said.

"Mao Qiling, have you ever held Your Majesty hostage?"

Zhu Dadian asked.

"Yes, I forced him to sign with a knife!"

Mao Qiling said.

Zhu Cihong looked at him with moving eyes.

"But I still want to make up for it here, the Duke of Chu is here, does the Duke of Chu want to listen to our whole plan? This plan has been approved by His Majesty, and just after His Majesty told the Tang King that he was not held hostage by anyone, he did not fornicate with Jiannu, and even his name was forced by me to sign it with a knife. However, he later agreed to all our plans, what to lead Jiannu to invade the south, and contact Li Zicheng and the three families to send troops to escort His Majesty's troops to Nanjing, these are not the most important. The most important thing is that the cellar has been dug in His Majesty's bedroom, and there are a hundred catties of gunpowder piled up in the cellar, waiting for the Duke of Chu to come to the door. Dolgon invaded his majesty in the south and summoned the Duke of Chu, and the Duke of Chu left under the pretext of His Majesty's dormitory, and then the Japanese slave dead soldier lit gunpowder below to blow up your bones.

Li Zicheng's three families are just used to force the civil and military officials of the southern capital to admit the reality and accept that His Majesty will defend against foreign enemies together! ”

Mao Qiling said excitedly.

The entire Great Hall of the Four Peoples fell silent in an instant.

"Your Majesty, why did Your Majesty suspect that the ministers are here!"

Suddenly, there was a cry of sorrow.

Then I saw Yang Qing stand up from the crowd and shouted bitterly: "Your Majesty wants to die, you only need a holy decree, why do you need to do this, with the grace of the first emperor, for the Ming Dynasty to guard the southern capital to treat Your Majesty, I don't want to be like this, today the minister should die to show Your Majesty!" ”

Then he pulled out the saber of his entourage and put it on his neck, and then pulled it forward in an exaggerated manner.

The retinue did not hesitate to grab the sword.

However, although he reacted quickly, Chu Gong's desire for death was too resolute, and the knife still pulled on his neck, and then blood spurted out from the severed veins, causing a scream of fright. Even Zhu Cihong was stunned, including Ding Kuichu and the others all looked at Yang Qing who was surging with blood in amazement, but then their expressions darkened. Because Yang Qing's raging blood suddenly stopped, and it was gone in a blink of an eye, Yuan Yuan next to him quickly wiped his neck, revealing the unscathed skin inside, and then Yuan Yuan looked at everyone on the trial seat viciously.

However, Duke Chu was still so sad that he fainted directly in her arms, it was obvious that His Majesty's suspicion of him had hit him hard, and as a loyal minister, it was inevitable that he would have some violent mood swings in the face of this kind of thing.

Fortunately, everyone knows about him.

The entire Great Hall of the Four Peoples was filled with a sigh of relief.

I have to say that Chu Gong is always so thrilling.

"The bold Mao Qiling, when he is dying, he dares to provoke the feelings of His Majesty and the Duke of Chu!"

Zhu Dadian slapped the hall and shouted.

"Although Your Majesty was confused for a while, and was confused by you and other traitors, you and other traitors fornicated with slaves and betrayed the country, but Your Majesty and the princess's brothers and sisters are close relatives, and the Duke of Chu is the concubine appointed by the first emperor for the princess, how can Your Majesty not think of the princess, how can you treat the Duke of Chu like this."

He then shouted.

Qian Qianyi and the others came to their senses in an instant.

"The prisoner is guilty, what the prisoner said before was fabricated to protect His Majesty, and the contact with Jiannu was all done by Mao Qiling to bewitch His Majesty, Your Majesty was confused by his words, and we were confused for a while and could not stop it. It was Mao Qiling who bewitched His Majesty to write a secret letter to Dolgon, and Ding Qixiang sent it to the Northern Capital, and it was also the covenant signed by Mao Qiling to bewitch His Majesty, and he had no intention of killing Duke Chu. Although His Majesty is suspicious of the Duke of Chu, but also praises the Duke of Chu for protecting the first emperor and assisting the princess in governing the Ming Dynasty, His Majesty's original intention is only to use the three families of Jiannu and Li Zicheng in case the Duke of Chu refuses to hand over the power, if the power of Chu is transferred, His Majesty will be the king of the county to seal the Duke of Chu, and marry the princess for the Duke of Chu! ”

Ding Kuichu was the first to shout.

Of course, they understood Zhu Dadian's intentions.

If the emperor really did this, he was really ready to blow up Yang Qing with gunpowder, then not to mention Yang Qing, even his sister would not let him go, let alone spare all those involved in the plan, and actually wanted to blow her fiancé to pieces, she would let you be crushed first.

These people are inevitably guilty of traitor.

But it may not be possible to exterminate the clan, first of all, the Ding family will definitely be exempted from the extermination of the clan if there is Ding Qixiang, and it is even more impossible for the King of Qi, his wife and children are all there with Li Zicheng, in the final analysis, he is also a clan, and the princess will not sit idly by and let him exterminate the clan. Although Qian Qianyi is more likely, Liu Ru is and Chen Yuanyuan are Qin Huai sisters, Yang Qing's heart for Liu Ru is is well known, and the final result is likely to be open, at least the Qian family is unlikely to be wiped out. In the end, only Mao Qiling is really stable, this bastard just knows this, and he simply dragged a bunch of pads on his back, and he had to pull others along with him to destroy the clan.

It is conceivable how angry this plan will make the princess, and the relationship between her and Yang Qing is also well known.

Dare to design to blow up Yang Qing?

It's no wonder that she doesn't kill your whole family, who is about to be promoted to the empress!

But if there is no such plan, it will not let her kill people, and her character is still very benevolent, so this matter can only be that the emperor was bewitched by the traitor Mao Qiling, and Qian Qianyi and others were also confused by his scheme. In the end, the monarchs and ministers all made unforgivable mistakes, doubting the loyalty of the Duke of Chu to the emperor, and then under his bewitchment, they wanted to contact Dolgon, lure Dolgon south, and together with Li Zicheng, the three families jointly forced Yang Qing to hand over power. But the emperor never thought of killing Yang Qing, his purpose was to let Yang Qing hand over power from beginning to end, and then he would be crowned the king of Yang Qingjun and marry the princess, and Yang Qing and the princess would go back to their fiefdom and live happily. The emperor never thought of killing Duke Chu, and they never wanted to kill Duke Chu, it was the bad guy Mao Qiling who did it from beginning to end, and he was sowing discord and bewitching His Majesty!

It's all him!

That's it.

Zhu Cihong's treason is a fact, and the covenant was not signed by coercion, but signed by himself, it is a fact that Qian Qianyi and these people followed the emperor for treason, and what Ding Qixiang said is true.

However, neither the emperor nor them thought of blowing up the Duke of Chu.

This is purely a mad dog bite of Moltridge.

It was he who deliberately provoked the relationship between the emperor and the Duke of Chu!

Look at the Duke of Chu who committed suicide, the emperor is really a villain this time, how can he suspect a loyal minister like this? However, this also confirms that he is really a faint monarch and has no qualifications to be an emperor at all.

Zhu Dadian nodded majestically.

Mao Qiling wanted to say something, but an unceremonious slap from a guard next to him slapped him, and he was already very weak, and he immediately fainted.

"Your Majesty, can you plead guilty?"

Zhu Dadian asked Zhu Cihong blindly.

All eyes turned to Zhu Cihong, as for Chu Gong......

Who cares about him! He can't die!
