Chapter 335: Shield
shun
Sun Xiang sat behind the desk and interrogated the people involved in the Yingchun Pavilion kneeling in front of the hall with an expressionless face, while Li Hongyu, Zhao Xin and Naren Toya sat aside to listen to the trial.
Originally, the people of Yingchun Pavilion still had luck in their hearts, thinking that the Seventh Master would come to save them, but when they went to the court and found that Naren Toya was actually sitting on the side to listen to the trial, and the person who was promoted to the court to ask the case was Shuntian Mansion Yin Hou, the psychological defense line collapsed half in an instant.
By the time Sun Xiang pointed out the identities of Naren Toya and Li Hongyu, those people in Yingchun Pavilion had already turned pale with fright, and their bodies were trembling, no one would have imagined that they would provoke the dignified county lord and the new champion, and the ** of Yingchun Pavilion rolled his eyes and fainted.
For this reason, under Sun Xiang's questioning, those people in Yingchun Pavilion did not dare to conceal it in the slightest, and confessed one by one, saying that Naren Toya was bought by them through a trafficker in the city, and because of Naren Toya's delicate appearance, they spent more than 100 taels of silver.
**Zi and the others naturally knew that the trafficker was not Naren Toya's father, but the two sides often dealt with each other, and Yingchun Pavilion bought a lot of girls from the traffickers.
But ** Zi didn't care about this, signed a deed of sale with the traffickers, and then forced Naren Toya to pick up customers as a Qing Qiren, anyway, there are guests who like this kind of tattered and handsome Mongolian girl.
Needless to say, Naren Toya stabbed the prostitute with the scissors given by Lian'er, and was arrested and put in the prison of Wanping County, and was almost taken advantage of by the three jailers who didn't know whether they were alive or dead.
In addition to Naren Toya, the people of Yingchun Pavilion also confessed a large number of evil deeds of forcing good people to become prostitutes and even killing those disobedient women, usually these things were suppressed by the seventh master behind the scenes, and now they have all been poked out.
This made Sun Xiang frown, he never expected that there would be such a dirty thing in the small Spring Festival Pavilion.
"Shocking, shocking!"
Li Hongyu had long known that a place like Yingchun Pavilion must contain dirt and dirt, so after the people involved in the Yingchun Pavilion explained the unknown evil deeds in Yingchun Pavilion, he glanced at the ** who was trembling and kneeling in front of the hall, and said to Sun Xiang in a deep voice, "Lord Fu Yin, this case must be strictly investigated, it is really unbelievable that such a bad thing happened under the feet of the world." ”
"What Li compiled is very true, and this official will definitely investigate it to the end."
Sun Xiang secretly smiled bitterly when he heard this, and then replied with a serious expression, forcing Liang to be a prostitute is a commonplace existence in the Qinglou, and it is not surprising that a few people die, after all, in these years, the yamen pays attention to the people not to raise officials and not to hold them accountable, who is full of food to take care of these idle things.
Besides, the people who can afford to open the Qinglou are all local magnates, and even if those victims complain, they are also managed by those people, which also makes the yamen a lot less unnecessary trouble.
Of course, Sun Xiang didn't want to investigate the matter of Naren Tuoya to the end, after all, it was the Shuntian Mansion that was in charge of the security of the capital, and he was so cold about such a big case, how could he explain it to Emperor Wanli?
But now that the situation is complicated, Li Hongyu is staring at the case of Yingchun Pavilion with fierce eyes, which makes Sun Xiang have to investigate hard, God knows how much dirt will be found.
"There's Lord Laofu Yin." Li Hongyu knew that Sun Xiang was in a difficult situation now, but this was not a problem for him to consider, and if he wanted to blame it, he would blame the people of Yingchun Pavilion for offending Naren Toya.
After leaving Suncheonfu, Li Hongyu had the New Army soldiers escort Scarface and the others to the New Army camp outside the city, where he ascended to the court to interrogate Scarface and the others for attacking the New Army.
Scarface's tone was very tight, and he began to argue that he had come to Yingchun Pavilion on his own initiative, but his subordinates were not as loyal as him, and soon summoned the Seventh Master, saying that the Seventh Master sent Scarface to lead them to Yingchun Pavilion to watch the field.
Therefore, Li Hongyu issued an official document in the name of the New Army Training Envoy, asking the soldiers of the New Army to enter the city early the next morning to arrest the Seventh Master and seize the assets in the name of the Seventh Master, on the grounds that the Seventh Master "intended to rebel."
Li Hongyu didn't care whether Scarface attacked the New Army intentionally or unintentionally, but if they dared to make a move against the New Army, then he dared to label them as a rebel.
Generally speaking, matters in the army must be reported to the Governor's Office of the Five Armies to which they belong, but the new army is special and is not subordinate to the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, nor is it subordinate to the pro-military Governor's Office that manages the forbidden army.
This is related to the special military establishment of the new army, and the establishment of both the Governor's Office of the Five Armed Forces and the Protectorate of the Pro-Army Metropolitan Government is different from it, so it cannot be classified into the jurisdiction of the Governor's Office of the Five Armed Forces and the Protectorate of the Pro-Army Metropolitan Government, which has a very transcendent independence.
Therefore, Li Hongyu could try cases related to the New Army and issue arrest warrants without going through the Governor's Office of the Five Armed Forces and the Pro-Army Governor's Office.
At the same time, Li Hongyu also entered the palace to meet Emperor Wanli and reported the matter of Naren Tuoya to Emperor Wanli, which must not be hidden from Emperor Wanli.
Forbidden City, Qianqing Palace, East Warm Pavilion.
When Li Hongyu was passed into the Dongnuan Pavilion by the chamberlain, Emperor Wanli was flipping through the music in his hand on the soft couch, his brows furrowed slightly.
"Minister Li Hongyu knocked to see the emperor." Li Hongyu came to the front of Emperor Wanli and knelt down to salute.
"Get up." Hearing this, Emperor Wanli raised his hand to Li Honggao, motioned for him to sit down on the round bench beside him, and then asked quietly, "I heard that you asked the new army to smash a Qinglou called Yingchun Pavilion yesterday?" ”
"Back to the emperor, this thing was done by the minister, but the minister did it with other hidden reasons."
Li Hongyu did not deny it when he heard this, and after bowing to Emperor Wanli, he told the matter of Naren Tuoya as it was, and then said angrily, "Your Majesty, this Yingchun Pavilion is a black shop that does evil, and if you don't smash it, I don't know how many women from good families will be harmed in the future!" ”
"You're out of breath, but the recital of the official's impeachment of you has snowflakes here." Emperor Wanli saw Li Hongyu's puffed up appearance, his face sank, and he patted the music on the table in front of him and said.
There has always been no impermeable wall in the capital, and the fact that Li Hongyu let the new army smash the Yingchun Pavilion yesterday quickly spread throughout the city, causing an obvious big wave in the market.
The people all applauded this, thinking that Li Hongyu gave them a bad outlet, Scarface and others usually did a lot of things that harmed the people, and everyone dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak out on weekdays.
However, the officials in the officialdom thought that Li Hongyu had done too much, and even mobilized the new army to smash the Yingchun Pavilion in disregard of the country's laws and regulations for the sake of a woman.
Therefore, except for the people of the Chu Party, the officials of the other factions went up one after another to impeach Li Hongyu for privately transferring the new army and destroying people's houses.
Among these speech officials who impeached Li Hongyu, except for Zhang Han who harbored selfish intentions, the vast majority of them followed the trend, although Li Hongyu was impeached, but there was no malicious intent, just to perform the duties of the speech officials.
"Your Majesty, the minister is guilty and willing to be punished." Hearing this, Li Hongyu got up from the stool, knelt in front of Emperor Wanli and said with a serious expression.
"You, you, really disappointed me, cough cough ......" Emperor Wanli couldn't help but shake his head when he saw this, and then coughed with his hand to cover his mouth.
"The minister disturbs the Holy Communion, and the sin deserves death!" Li Hongyu hurriedly touched his head to the ground and pleaded guilty.
"This has nothing to do with you, my body knows it myself, I'm afraid I won't be able to stand it for a few years." Emperor Wanli coughed for a while and then motioned for Li Hongyu to get up, and then said a little gloomily, he was nearly sixty years old, and he had to work state affairs, so his body was naturally getting worse.
"The emperor is the true son of heaven, and he will live a long life." Li Hongyu felt a little sad in Emperor Wanli's words, and hurriedly bowed down and said.
"A long life of 100 years is just a rhetoric, after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, which son of heaven can live to be 100 years old?" Emperor Wanli smiled when he heard this, and he had already seen the matter of life and death very openly, after all, birth, old age, sickness and death are very things that people can control, and no matter how nostalgic they are, they can't do anything.
"These days you have been thinking about going south behind closed doors at home, and I will settle the matter before you set off." Then, Emperor Wanli pondered for a while and said in a deep voice to Li Hongyu.
Emperor Wanli's southward movement naturally refers to Li Hongyu's trip to Yangzhou to sell overseas trade quotas, and he is quite looking forward to how much silver taels Li Hongyu can raise.
"The Lord's Order is grateful." Hearing this, Li Hongyu bowed to Emperor Wanli and stepped back.
"Young and frivolous!" Looking at Li Hongyu's distant back, a smile flashed at the corner of Emperor Wanli's mouth, and then instructed the chamberlain on the side, "In the future, all the impeachment of Li Bian does not need to be brought again, and it will not be issued." ”
"The minions obey." The chamberlain bowed down and agreed with a sharp voice.
The so-called "stay in the middle and not send it" refers to leaving the concert in the palace, neither discussing nor replying, which means that the emperor does not want to talk about the affairs of the concerto.
Obviously, Emperor Wanli deliberately favored Li Hongyu, in his opinion, it was not a big deal for Li Hongyu to transfer people to smash the Yingchun Pavilion, young people are always easy to act impulsively, and it is forgivable to make mistakes occasionally.
Speaking of which, Emperor Wanli wants to see Li Hongyu make mistakes, only in this way can he better control Li Hongyu, and Li Hongyu will rely more on Emperor Wanli.
If Li Hongyu does not have the slightest shortcoming, then this means that Li Hongyu does not need to rely on Emperor Wanli very much, and it is difficult to be controlled by Emperor Wanli, which will make Emperor Wanli vigilant and feel that it is difficult to control Li Hongyu.
This is also the reason why Li Hongyu was very relaxed before the soldiers of the new army smashed the Yingchun Pavilion, the reason why Li Hongyu made such a big deal was actually for Emperor Wanli to see, so that Emperor Wanli could relax on him, otherwise he would use other ways to deal with Naren Toya's matter.
Judging from the effect, Li Hongyu has achieved the expected goal and successfully dispelled the suspicion of Emperor Wanli in his heart.
