Chapter 489: Ask for a Hammer and Get a Hammer

Qian Qianyi said a word, stopped talking, and waited for the court meeting to start very coldly and arrogantly.

Not long after, Ma Shiying, Ruan Dacheng and others came over, and a group of eunuch officials immediately surrounded them and whispered in a low voice.

Soon, a few more people came, and it was indeed Chen Zilong, Lu Zhenfei and other imperial party officials, who seemed to be discussing something.

Qian Qianyi frowned slightly, feeling that the atmosphere was a little wrong, but seeing that He Tengjiao was alone, he was very pitiful, so he didn't think much about it.

At this time, as soon as the time came, the hundred officials lined up according to their grades and entered the Fengtian Palace.

A moment later, a sharp voice rang out, "Your Majesty has arrived,"

Nearly 100 ministers on both sides of the hall wearing Ming official uniforms suddenly bowed in unison, wearing dragon robes, and Zhu Cihong, who was wearing a winged crown, walked out with a frosty face, and sat down on the big seat.

Zhu Cihong's face was gloomy and he waved his hand, "It's all free of courtesy!" ”

Qian Qianyi glanced up at the emperor, and saw that Zhu Cihong looked bad, and he was probably still angry about the matter in Wuchang, and his heart was even more confident.

Zhu Cihong glanced at the hundred officials, and his gaze stayed on Qian Qianyi and the others for a moment, revealing a trace of murderous intent.

"Rank and file, can you have something important to start?" Zhu Cihong said.

Among the hundred officials, an official of the Ministry of War, who was less than 30 years old, immediately came out of the column with an ivory wat and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, the minister has a book. Gao Jingzhong's soldiers committed Wuchang, Wuchang was in an emergency, and Nanning waited for the imperial court to quickly send water and land soldiers and horses to rescue. ”

Zhu Cihong's gaze glanced at the official coldly, and then his gaze turned to He Tengjiao, "Elder He Ge, Gao Jingzhong is your appeasement, and the current soldier is committing Wuchang, you give me an explanation." ”

He Tengjiao immediately came out of the queue to salute, "Your Majesty, there is another inside story in this matter, Han Gong was framed by Xiaoxiao!" ”

"Your Majesty!" Qian Qianyi decided not to give He Tengjiao a chance, and drowned him directly by spitting to let him know the importance of team building.

Qian Qianyi let out a loud shout, walked to the center of the hall and drew attention to him, grasping the initiative.

He glanced at He Tengjiao, and then saluted: "Your Majesty, the minister wants to participate in He Tengjiao's collusion with traitors!" Nanning Hou is in a hurry, which means that the situation in Wuchang is critical, Gao Jingzhong is attacking Wuchang, and the rebellion is undoubted, what else is the inside story? This person has already colluded with Gao Jingzhong, and should be arrested and imprisoned immediately, cutting off Gao Jingzhong's internal connection in the court, lest he pass on news to Gao Jingzhong! The minister thought that He Tengjiao was a high and loyal quibble, in order to delay the imperial court to rescue Wuchang, and his heart could be described as sinister. ”

Qian Qianyi pointed at He Tengjiao and impeached him in court, and as soon as he finished speaking, Wang Duo came out and said: "Your Majesty, the minister impeached He Tengjiao yesterday, and today Wuchang is in an emergency, and it is an indisputable fact that Gao Jingzhong committed Wuchang, which confirms the minister's impeachment." The minister agreed with Qian Ge Lao's words, when the war started, no matter what considerations, He Tengjiao should be handed over to the Criminal Department first. In addition, Wuchang is an important town in the west of our country, and there must be no mistakes, so Your Majesty should immediately order the allocation of weapons, grain and grass to Nanning Hou to resist the rebels of Gao Jingzhong. ”

As soon as the two scholars finished speaking, a group of people came out of the hundred officials, and half of the people in the hall knelt down, seconded the proposal, and loudly asked the emperor to put He Tengjiao in prison, and then sent troops to clean up Gao Yihuan's rebels.

Although He Tengjiao had a bottom in his heart, he couldn't help sweating on his forehead when he saw this posture.

In officialdom, it's really not good to have a few friends, others say a word, you don't even have a chance to speak, and the spit drowns you.

Nearly half of the officials came out to impeach, demanding that He Tengjiao be taken down, and then deal with Gao Yihuan.

Zhu Cihong's face became more and more gloomy, he had encountered such a scene more than once, but this time it made him extremely angry.

Previously, he wanted to implement the tax law, and he also suffered such opposition, but as the emperor, he was high above and did not know what the bottom society was like, nor did he know how much business profits were and how much tax should be levied to be reasonable, so he was not sure whether it really harmed the interests of the people.

When he faced opposition, he was unconfident in his heart, but this time he knew that this group of people was talking nonsense with their eyes open, reversing black and white, which was simply shameless.

Zhu Cihong's face sank like water, but He Tengjiao suddenly became furious, stood up and roared angrily, "Your Majesty, colleagues." During the Southern Song Dynasty, the traitor Qin Hui killed Yue Fei on trumped-up charges. Today's tragedy of Yue Fei was repeated in my Ming Dynasty, and I am really heartbroken. ”

He Tengjiao was full of grief and indignation, and looked around at everyone, "Your Majesty, just a month ago, the Korean Gongcai repelled the attack of the Eastern Captives and captured Nanjing, and became a traitor in less than a month?" It doesn't make sense! ”

Qian Qianyi had a cold and arrogant face, and snorted coldly, "Everything must be evidenced, Gao Jing's loyal soldiers committed Wuchang, it is a rebellion, there is nothing that makes no sense!" ”

He Tengjiao sneered, "If you want evidence, I have it here!" ”

Qian Qianyi was shocked, He Tengjiao had already taken out a book from his sleeve, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, here is the report sent by the Korean Minister, please take a look at it with Your Majesty and your colleagues." During the fierce battle between the Korean Duke and the Eastern Prisoners, Qian Qianyi and others actually instigated Zuo Liangyu to sneak attack the rear of the Korean Princes in order to sue for peace with the Eastern Emperors, which was simply mad and more vicious than Qin Hui's intentions. ”

He Tengjiao is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and directly deducted a hat for Qian Qianyi.

Qian Qianyi was a little shocked to see He Tengjiao take out a piece of music and hand it to the chamberlain, and immediately frowned, but he didn't expect Gao Jingzhong's music to go to Nanjing under his interception.

Zhu Cihong took the song, looked at it, threw it in front of Qian Qianyi, and said in a sullen voice: "Old Qian Ge, what do you say?" ”

Qian Qianyi picked it up and unfolded it at a glance, but sneered: "Your Majesty, Gao Jingzhong is a rogue, and the bandits have no faith. The contents of this letter are not credible, and it is completely reversed. It is even more ridiculous to say that the minister instructed Nanning Hou to attack him first. The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty all knew that a few days ago, the ministers were too excited because they caught the national thief Kong Youde, and unfortunately they were bedridden, so how could they have the opportunity to instigate Nanning to wait. The minister thought that this letter was just Gao Jingzhong's words to confuse the court, and there was no evidence to support it at all, but it was a fact that Gao Jingzhong's soldiers committed Wuchang. Please also ask Your Majesty to be clear! ”

Qian Qianyi had expected Gao Jingzhong's performance, but he didn't pay attention to it.

Zhu Cihong's face turned red, he was young, the city government was not deep, if it weren't for a good education, he would have beaten people before the morning.

Gao Yihuan's compromises had the intention of asking the teacher for guilt, which made Zhu Cihong unhappy, but Qian Qianyi's shamelessness wanted to deceive him and treat him as a fool, but it made him even more angry.

"Proof, right? Read it all to me! Zhu Cihong suddenly threw out more than a dozen pieces of paper from his sleeve.

Qian Qianyi was stunned, a sense of foreboding rose in his heart, he really didn't expect the emperor to throw out a stack of things, in the words of later generations, he was begging for a hammer.

Qian Qianyi picked up one with some hesitation, only looked at the beginning, but his expression changed drastically in an instant.

"Read it to me!" Zhu Cihong roared loudly.

He roared, but Qian Qianyi's eyes were closed, his body was soft, the paper slipped down, and he fainted directly on the main hall.

Everyone in the hall was suddenly shocked, and the Donglin Party people were panicked in an instant, but when Zhu Cihong saw this, his eyes looked at Wang Duo, "You come and read!" ”

Wang Duo couldn't do anything, he couldn't faint too, so he took one and began to read it aloud.

This is exactly Zhang Yingxiang's confession, starting with Huang Shu and Hou Fangyu instigating Zuo Liangyu, and reading his order to cross the river to attack Hanchuan, stabbing Gao Yihuan's knife, and the story of the Zuo army's disaster to the people in Hanchuan.

The next few confessions of the left army, as well as Wang Jinshi's brilliant accusations, almost every word is the blood and tears of the people.

Zhu Cihong had already seen it, but he was still furious, "These brutes have lost the reputation of the court like this!" ”

"Your Majesty, the ministers should participate in Qian Qianyi and Wang Duo, form a party for personal gain, deceive the Holy Hearing, and frame Zhongliang." Ruan Dacheng saw the opportunity and came out to kneel in the center.

A group of figures stood up, knelt on the ground in unison, filled with righteous indignation, and ordered seconding.

Facing the anger of the emperor and the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, Qian Qianyi, who was lying on the ground, quickly closed his eyes and continued to pretend to be dead.
