Wen Tiren's usual energy is mainly devoted to dealing with cabinet affairs, so he is not very familiar with the rules and regulations of the Criminal Department, but one thing is clear to him: the current Yuan Chonghuan has long been removed from his own position and has been removed from the reputation of Jinshi.

In fact, not long ago, Wen Tiren was bent on putting Yuan Chonghuan to his death because he had figured out Emperor Chongzhen's thinking. In his heart, as long as Yuan Chonghuan's case is turned into an iron case and the former Jiliao Governor is ruined, then it doesn't matter much whether Yuan Chonghuan is standing or kneeling now - anyway, when he was stabbed in the back of the head at the entrance of the vegetable market, Yuan Chonghuan must have been kneeling.

However, the request to let Yuan Chonghuan kneel and be tried was said from Gao Qiqian's mouth, which made Wen Tiren very unhappy - although Wen Tiren has a little less discipline, a lower bottom line, and a little lack of morality, he is also a serious Jinshi. The civil officials, on the other hand, have a natural sense of disgust and distrust towards the eunuchs and eunuchs, in short, the eunuchs approve of it, and the civil officials always have to oppose it; If the eunuchs oppose it, the civil officials must always approve it.

Although this natural antagonism is not completely without exceptions, the current high rise and potential in the lobby of the Criminal Department does not have the ability of Wei Zhongxian's party to fight against differences and unify the officialdom back then, so of course Wen Tiren, the second assistant of the cabinet, will not buy his account.

So Wen Tiren said: "Father-in-law Gao, you are here to observe, it seems that you are too lenient, right?" Although this Yuan Chonghuan was guilty, after all, he had also fought against the Manchurian Tartars back then, and even the enemy chief Nurhachi was killed by him under the city of Jinzhou. Couldn't he still be replaced by standing in front of a few of us for such a meritorious service? ”

Gao Qiqian looked at his eyes as thin as two lines, and said, "Lord Wen, you can write these few sentences into the final judgment!" Long live the Lord will naturally give instructions as appropriate. However, one yard is one yard, and Lord Wen's reasons don't seem to be enough for Yuan Chonghuan to kneel and answer, right? ”

Don't look at Gao Qiqian as a eunuch, his two sentences are also powerful, and the meaning is very clear: If Emperor Chongzhen really took into account Yuan Chonghuan's achievements back then, he would not throw Yuan Chonghuan into the prison at all; And Yuan Chonghuan is now at the mercy of the predecessor of the Criminal Department, doesn't it just show that Emperor Chongzhen has acquiesced, and Yuan Chonghuan's merits cannot offset the crimes he committed?

Lord Wen Tiren, who has been slippery and hands-free in his decades of officialdom career, can't help but be a little afraid and a little glad when he thinks of this, glad that it's not too late for him to be able to figure out the joints here, at least to avoid directly disobeying Emperor Chongzhen's opinion.

So Wen Tiren had a smile on his face and said to Yuan Chonghuan who was standing in the hall: "Yuan Chonghuan, yes."

The former official let you stand and talk, which is considered to be extraordinarily gracious. Since Gonggong Gao doesn't allow it, then the official can't be thoughtful. Come on, you don't kneel down yet! ”

Yuan Chonghuan sighed and thought to himself: You incompetent people who are fake and mighty, when this superintendent was in power, it was too late for you to stammer, how could you dare to be so rude?

But as the old saying goes: people have to bow their heads under low eaves.

Yuan Chonghuan was not tall, but the eaves were even shorter, so he could only sigh deeply, and when he opened the corners of his robe that was already ragged and filthy, he was about to kneel down.

But I heard Ji Qingwen shouting: "Wait! ”

With his loud shout, Yuan Chonghuan temporarily stopped kneeling, and Zhou Yanru, Wen Tiren, Gao Qiqian and others in the lobby of the Criminal Department also looked at Ji Qingwen's face, wanting to see what this hot political upstart would have to say.

Unexpectedly, Ji Qingwen didn't speak, but got up from his seat, personally brought the empty chair under his buttocks to Yuan Chonghuan's side, and said loudly: "Your lords also know that Yuan Chonghuan has the same friendship with this official. He is now sick, if he is still allowed to kneel and talk, then this case will not be tried, but Yuan Chonghuan will inevitably kneel and die in the lobby of the Criminal Department in three days. Therefore, he is small below, and he does not dare to ask for the mercy of adults, and he would rather stand and listen to it, and Yuan Chonghuan will be tried while sitting, how about it? ”

When Zhou Yanru and Wen Tiren heard this, they secretly applauded in their hearts, and couldn't help but praise Ji Qingwen, an officialdom nouveau riche after all, slapped Gao Qiqian, a dead eunuch, in the face, and such words and actions were something that these two adults didn't dare to say or do.

Gao Qiqian, who was slapped in the face, was flushed and said, "Lord Ji, what are you talking about?" ”

"What words? I'm talking about people! You can't even understand human speech, that's a brute! Ji Qingwen scolded viciously.

When Gao Qiqian heard this, he suddenly became angry in his heart - although Emperor Chongzhen couldn't trust the eunuchs, Gao Qiqian was the chief eunuch after all, and civil officials, foreign ministers, and nobles were always polite to him, how could he have been insulted in person?

But listening to Ji Qingwen, he still didn't give up, and said: "Father-in-law Gao, you have to be forgiving and forgiving." Thirty years of feng shui have taken turns, and now is an eventful time, and I am afraid that the situation will change dramatically in three years. In the blink of an eye, it's not Gonggong Gao who will hear Yuan Chonghuan, but I, Ji Qingwen, will listen to your Gonggong Gao! But father-in-law, don't worry, when that time comes, I will definitely be extrajudicial and let my father-in-law sit on trial! ”

Ji Qingwen's words are all angry words now, but he didn't expect that a few years later, his words actually became a prophecy, and he really interrogated Gao Qiqian.

However, Gao Qiqian is a mouse-eyed person, and he only knows that he is now being let by Ji Qingwen

The loser—and in front of the two cabinet ministers—suddenly became furious: "Lord Ji, be careful what you say!" The miscellaneous family is also a person with a head and a face, it doesn't matter if you scold the miscellaneous family, but if you sweep the face of the long live lord, it will not be good! ”

"That's what I've been waiting for." Ji Qingwen said-for-tat, "You eggless eunuch, dare to speak out here, saying that the emperor has decreed that Yuan Chonghuan must be tried on his knees?" I think you're a fox and a fake tiger! No, it's overkill! Believe it or not......"

What Ji Qingwen originally wanted to say was: Believe it or not, I'll use the sword of the Son of Heaven to behead you, a dead eunuch!

But as soon as he touched his waist, he realized that the "Sword of the Son of Heaven" that had accompanied him for almost two years had been confiscated by Emperor Chongzhen, and he now had no power to respond to the situation and kill the traitor.

However, the two charges that came out of his mouth just now were still very serious, which made Gao Qiqian speechless for a while.

Ji Qingwen still didn't let go of Gao Qiqian, who had already fallen into the wind, and continued: "You dead eunuch don't have to be angry, be careful of being angry with me in the lobby of this criminal department." If you have to be angry, it doesn't matter, the emperor is sitting in the Forbidden City, and if you have the ability, you will go and complain to the emperor. As long as I have the holy decree, I will do it! ”

Gao Qiqian really left the Criminal Department now, and personally went to the Forbidden City and the Qianqing Palace to ask Emperor Chongzhen for a holy decree, so that Ji Qingwen, a kid, would kneel in the lobby of the Criminal Department with Yuan Chonghuan to be tried.

But before he could fully form this idea, he retreated.

Gao Qiqian is Emperor Chongzhen's personal eunuch, and he always praises Ji Qingwen when he hears Chongzhen on weekdays, and he has never said anything bad about him. And Ji Qingwen has always been unruly, and the impeachment of him in the court has never been broken. Among these officials who can impeach Ji Qingwen, the lucky emperor didn't pay attention to him, and he let it go as a fart; Those who were unlucky were dismissed, dismissed, and executed by the emperor's decree.

Among them, the biggest official and the most unlucky official is Xiong Mingyu, who used to be the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department, and now his body is cold!

What's even more terrifying is that Xiong Mingyu wears the same pants as Han Zanzhou, the eunuch of the Nanjing garrison, and Han Zanzhou, the old eunuch, is an old acquaintance who has been serving Chongzhen since he was a child. In other words, with Han Zanzhou's face, Chongzhen still killed Xiong Mingyu, who impeached Ji Qingwen.

And Gao Qiqian, whether it is qualifications or affection, is far inferior to Han Zanzhou. He wanted to rely on his own face to get Emperor Chongzhen to punish Ji Qingwen severely on such trivial matters as whether Yuan Chonghuan knelt, stood, or sat for trial, which was obviously unlikely.

Thinking of this, Gao Qiqian, who was quite shrewd, finally understood the account, and finally did not express any objections with his head down.
