Chapter 796: Confession
Just as he was hesitating, Qingge walked in again, and after glancing at Xu Youzhen, who was full of confusion and panic, he walked straight to Lu Jin's side, leaned down and whispered, "My lord, that guy is finally willing to recruit." ”
Lu Zhen pondered slightly, and then understood who the person in his mouth was, it was the person who was captured from Xu Youzhen's mansion, and it was very likely that he was a border army soldier. Then he nodded and said, "Then bring someone in and talk." ”
"Then he ......" Qinggeler glanced at Xu Youzhen with some concern.
Lu Zhen smiled: "It's okay to let Lord Xu listen to it on the side, anyway, he has already had contact with that person, and he knows his identity and origin better." ”
Seeing that Lu Jin said this, Qingge naturally would not raise any more objections, and hurriedly agreed, and went out to bring people in. And Xu Youzhen was full of doubts after listening to these vague words, and she didn't know what kind of medicine Lu Jin's gourd was selling. It wasn't until the man was brought into the hall and saw his appearance clearly that his face changed again, and he became more and more ugly, and his heart sank to the bottom.
Seeing his reaction, Lu Zhen smiled again, but no longer paid attention to him, but fixed his eyes on this military man: "At this time, I think you should know your situation very well, right?" If it weren't for the timely action of my Jinyi guard, I'm afraid you would have been killed by the people behind the scenes like Liu Muqing. If you are obsessed with it, if you have to protect some people, even if I don't torture you, I'm afraid you won't live long. ”
These words fell into Xu Youzhen's ears, which made him even more surprised: "Liu Muqing is actually dead?" How is this possible? Although he didn't have much contact with that Liu Langzhong in this matter, he also knew that his identity was not low, and he could be regarded as an extremely important figure in this situation against Lu Jin, and he didn't expect him to die......
Originally, there was still some suspicion, thinking that it might be a trap set by Lu Jin, but it wasn't until the military man next to him opened his mouth that Xu Youzhen had to believe that this was the truth: "You don't need to say it, after I watched him being assassinated, I knew that if I wanted to live, I had to tell everything truthfully." Since they even want to kill me, then there is no need for me to hide anything for them! When he said this, there was a sign of determination in his eyes.
When Lu Zhen and Xu Youzhen heard these words, their reactions were completely different. The former is naturally a joy, and the latter is a rin. Because Xu Youzhen knew that the relationship between himself and Jia Xiong was not visible, once he recruited it, his crime would be confirmed, and this crime was quite large.
"So your name is Jia Xiong? But I don't know what kind of identity you are, and under whose account you are used? Lu Zhen seemed very steady, and he was not in a hurry to let people say important things first.
However, Jia Xiong, a rough man, obviously couldn't think too much, so he replied immediately: "The little one is indeed from Datong, Shanxi, and he is a pro-army next to the general Shi Heng. As early as two months ago, because of the order of the general, he brought a letter to Beijing and stayed in Lord Xu's house. When he said this, he glanced at Xu Youzhen again, and the latter's face suddenly turned pale.
It's finally time to come! This is a thought that flashed through Xu Youzhen's mind at this moment. Once this matter is confirmed, the charges against him will be great. For courtiers, the most serious crime is not greed, but the birth of a disobedient heart. Among them, there is
The courtiers befriended the side generals, which was the most taboo for the Son of Heaven. Now, as an official of the DPRK and China, he actually took in a soldier sent by the border pass and kept him in the palace for several months, and he said that he could not be trusted without colluding with Shi Heng.
Lu Zhen smiled with satisfaction: "Then do you know what Shi Heng mentioned in the letter that asked you to bring it to the capital?" ”
"This ...... The little ones are illiterate, so they don't know what's in it. But I've heard Master Xu say that as long as all parties can act according to the plan during the test, everything can be completed smoothly. ”
"Hmm......" Lu Zhen nodded again: "In addition to Lord Xu, have you had any contact with other officials in the DPRK and China, or sent letters to them?" ”
Jia Xiong shook his head: "This is gone, in the past few years, the general has only been in contact with Lord Xu, and has not had any dealings with other adults." ”
Lu Zhen nodded clearly, he could see that what the other party said was not a lie, because at this time, he really had nothing to hide. Anyway, Shi Heng was involved, so there was no need to protect others.
"Very well, then you can draw a bet on this confession." Lu Zhen glanced at the other party with satisfaction, and then ordered someone to hand over the confession to him. Jia Xiong was also quite straightforward, and immediately pressed his handprint on it, admitting that he had said all this himself.
After doing all this and ordering someone to take Jia Xiong down, Lu Zhen looked at Xu Youzhen, who was already frightened: "Lord Xu, until now, do you still want to say that you were wronged by my Jinyiwei?" Now I have the testimony of two important witnesses in my hand, as long as your Majesty is truthful, how do you say Your Majesty will send you down? Dismissal? Raiding the house? Decollation? Or is it a rage to destroy your three clans? ”
He said this lightly, but in Xu Youzhen's ears, it was tantamount to a muffled thunder sound, which shocked his eyes and turned black. He could not afford any of these punishments.
After a long time, his knees weakened and he knelt down automatically: "Governor Lu, Lord Lu...... Xia Guan knows that he is wrong, Xia Guan should not join forces with others to frame you because of some contradictions at the beginning. I hope you have a lot of adults, let go of the lower officials......" As he spoke, he kowtowed his head again, looking like he was indeed frightened.
"It's not impossible to let this official spare you, at least I can help you hide something so that you can save your life. But you have to explain something. For example, what other accomplices have not yet been taken by my Jinyi Guard, and who is really behind the scenes instructing you to do all this? Seeing that he looked like this, Lu Jin's heart was naturally settled, and he took advantage of the situation to ask.
Xu Youzhen hesitated for a while, and finally the fear in her heart overwhelmed all concerns, and said, "I said, as long as I know, tell Lord Lu everything...... Just like Na Jia Xiong said, it was indeed because Shi Heng came with such a letter that I made up my mind to use the imperial examination to frame the adult. In addition to him and Liu Muqing, several officials from the Criminal Department and the Ministry of Rites cooperated with us, and as soon as the matter was together, they would join the officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate to impeach you, so that Your Majesty would immediately convict you of a felony......" As he spoke, he reported the names of several officials of the DPRK and China.
Lu Zhen listened quietly, until he finished speaking, kowtowed and begged for mercy, then leaned forward slightly and said, "There are still untruths in what you say."
”
Xu Youzhen's heart slammed into her heart, but she insisted: "Lord Lu, Xiaguan has indeed told everything he knows, and there is nothing to hide. I hope that the adults will see it! ”
"Really? Then let me ask you, who did the accident that happened in Suzhou? It can't be the house slaves of you Beijing officials, or the cronies sent by Shi Heng from Shanxi, right? Lu Zhen immediately straightened his face and asked solemnly.
"This ......" Xu Youzhen was stunned for a moment. In the examination room, he really didn't know that such an accident had happened in Suzhou, thousands of miles away, and then he knew that something was wrong.
"Why, you've explained so much, do you still want to have reservations?" Lu Zhen said, his tone suddenly heavy: "Hurry up and recruit from the truth, otherwise this crime will also fall on you, Lord Xu!" ”
In the face of such intimidation, Xu Youzhen's body shook again, and after another period of hesitation, he finally spoke: "I said...... In fact, in addition to these people, there is another person who cooperates with us, that is, Tan Yuan, the eunuch of Dongchang...... Presumably, the matter of Suzhou has something to do with him......" After saying this, he lowered his head again, not daring to meet Lu Jin's gaze. If you look closely at his expression, you will inevitably find that he is actually hiding something.
But this time, Lu Zhen was a little distracted, and he didn't look at his expression carefully: "Dongchang?" That makes sense. The hidden power of the East Factory can indeed make such a disturbance in Suzhou City. They really have the guts to dare to do such a thing at this time! ”
Indeed, compared with Jinyiwei with Lu Zhen in charge, Dongchang's current situation is much worse, and the real grandmother doesn't care about his uncle or kiss. Because of Wang Zhen's relationship, he has been wary of this group of eunuchs today, naturally including Dongchang, even if he felt that he was subject to the possibility of being subject to the civil official group, he would rather re-establish Jinyiwei than let Dongchang, which is closer to him, have the possibility of resurrection.
And now the civil officials in power in the DPRK and China are even more disgusted with eunuchs and have great wariness of institutions like Dongchang. So in the past few years, Dongchang has been worse than Jinyiwei, and it is really living with its tail between its legs.
However, Lu Jin also believes that it is precisely because of this that the leaders in the East Factory will want to reverse this situation more and more. It seems that they are planning to use the attack on the brocade guard this time to win a chance for themselves. After all, with all the previous things, they believe that the Son of Heaven will inevitably have the assistance of a special yamen such as the factory guard in the future, and once the Jinyi Guard is re-controlled, the Son of Heaven will naturally think of reactivating the East Factory.
"These guys really have some ideas, and they are brave enough to do something." Lu Zhen had already accepted this statement, and looked at Xu Youzhen again: "In addition to them, are there any other accomplices?" ”
"No, not again." Xu Youzhen immediately shook his head and said.
"In that case, please draw a charge." Lu Zhen exhaled. With these confessions, it is not only enough to completely clear one's charges, but also to throw out Shi Heng, the culprit, and let the world know his true face!
