Chapter 129: Behind bars

Ye Xianggao was silent for a moment, and suddenly said, "Your Majesty, the criminal minister does not dare to intercede for him. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Weichen just felt that a sage like him, who was loyal and served the country, was suddenly characterized as a treacherous and shameless villain, Weichen suddenly felt unbelievable and was shocked in his heart, among them, I am afraid that there are many reasons, I am afraid that some people deliberately slander and attack the frame. ”

Tianqi said coldly: "This is Sun Yueling's personal confession, who will frame him, do the Jinyi Wei interrogators dare to deceive me?" ”

Ye Xianggao said: "That's not daring." Wei Chen just thinks that the four major crimes pointed out by Jin Yiwei, in fact, the third and fourth major crimes are nothing, they are simply chasing the wind and catching shadows, especially Sun Yueling letting go of the demon head, it is even more unsubstantiated and nonsense, and Huang Zunsu of Yushi has already refuted it in a book. ”

After a pause, he said, "As for the first and second major crimes, Sun Yueling is naturally suspected of deceiving the imperial court, but Weichen asks Your Majesty to think about it carefully, after going thousands of miles for the Ming court, helping the imperial court soldiers and horses to conquer Zhenjiang, and coming to Beijing, he made a lot of contributions to the 'Daming Gate Change', and killed the person who smelled the incense and the conspiracy to attack the imperial city, will he be a treacherous and unscrupulous villain?" ”

This sentence reminded the apocalypse, he thought about what Sun Yueling did, it seemed that he was far away from a morally corrupt, treacherous and disorderly person, and his various actions were more like a loyal person for the country and the people, and he was also hesitant in his heart, and said: "But this is something he admitted personally, can it be fake?" ”

Ye Xianggao continued to advise: "Since he admitted it himself, there will be no fake. But as the old saying goes, the prodigal son does not change his money, maybe he did do some things like chickens and dogs in the past, but maybe at that time he was forced to make a living, so he could only survive in the market. Later, after going through all kinds of things, he gradually understood some of the truths of serving the country, so he changed his past wrongs, devoted himself to the country, and became a person who cherishes his family and the country. ”

Looking up at the gradually slowing face of the apocalypse, he said, "Since ancient times, there have been countless things about the prodigal son turning back, and I have ruled the world with generosity, benevolence and virtue, how can I hold on to the past mistakes of others and not let go, in this way, wouldn't it chill the hearts of all people in the world, forcing those who have made mistakes to have no way back, and can only go to the dark on one road, becoming the source of disasters and disasters?" ”

This sentence stabbed into the heart of the Apocalypse, although the Apocalypse is a little wise and foolish, but after all, he is more generous, as long as others do not violate his ultimate interests, he generally resigned himself to it, without reprimanding, which can be seen from his kindness to those Donglin Party members who fought for the throne for his father Taichang. Moreover, Tianqi asked himself, he himself had done a lot of ridiculous and nonsense bad things, how could Sun Yueling be the only one to do it?

Tianqi's face became even more softened, and he looked at Ye Xianggao and said: "What Elder Ge said is indeed reasonable, I have always ruled the world with tolerance, how can I ignore his many achievements today and put him on death row because of his past mistakes, I am not that kind of person!" ”

When Ye Xianggao heard this, he was overjoyed, his words were finally not in vain, and he hurriedly said: "My emperor Shengming, he is really a benevolent and generous king, and it is really a blessing for Weichen to serve such a monarch." ”

This sycophant was not in vain, Tianqi laughed when he heard it, and said: "Boss Ge can be relieved, I will not forget Sun Yueling's merits, after all, he also saved my life, and with this, I will not treat him badly." ”

……

After the trial results of Sun Yueling's case came out, there was immediately a lot of controversy in the court, and various parties were constantly arguing over the investigation.

After all, this matter has been discovered, and the fact that Sun Yueling is not a talent can no longer be hidden from everyone, and the court cannot tolerate a person who is not from a scientific background and is mixed in the market to serve as an official.

However, there are no longer a few imperial historians who support Sun Yueling, and many people are quoting scriptures and talking about reason, saying that since a person is used, as long as this person can bring merit to the Ming court, even if he is from a humble background, it is not unavoidable, there are Kuang Heng and Su Qin in ancient times, and Song Lian and Gu Dingcheng are all people who come from humble backgrounds and have achieved a career.

Of course, most of these people who said good things for Sun Yueling were Donglin Party members, and under the instruction of Shoufu and Zuodu Yushi, they deliberately bent things up like this, laying a good foundation for Sun Yueling's future comeback and paving the way.

Finally, the holy decree to dispose of Sun Yueling was sent to Jinyiwei Prison, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse personally approved eight big characters: deprivation of fame and temporary detention to listen to the investigation. For the rest of Sun Yueling's crimes, there is not a word.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse finally did not severely punish Sun Yueling under Ye Xianggao's persuasion. However, he still stripped his fame, so that not only could he stop the mouths of those imperial historians, but also stifled the turmoil that this incident might cause.

After the news reached Jinyiwei, Xu Xianchun and others were shocked inexplicably, frightened in their hearts, they didn't expect them to work hard and do everything, but they still couldn't put Sun Yueling on death row, it seems that this person is still favored in the eyes of the Son of Heaven, and the Donglin Party behind them is even more powerful, and the noble ministers behind them do not have enough strength to bring down the Donglin Party in the court.

Thinking of this, Xu Xianchun was angry. Cui Yingyuan said to him: "Even if he can't be completely put on death row, but the Son of Heaven has deprived him of his fame after all, it can be seen that His Majesty the Emperor is not completely towards the Donglin Party, but is just balancing the various parties and factions, and mediating between them. As long as Donglin is weak, and we wait to exert our strength from it, Sun Yueling will definitely die in prison. ”

Xu Xianchun couldn't suppress the breath in his heart, and said angrily: "When will you wait?" Since the Son of Heaven has deprived him of his fame, then, he is now a white body, and I will send him to the most gloomy and dark cell in the edict prison, and he will be beaten every three days and interrogated every seven days, so that he will be better off life than death, and regret being a man. ”

Cui Yingyuan was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "By all means, Sun Yueling's holy family is still there at this time, and there are many forces behind him, if we act rashly, I am afraid that the court will investigate it, and it will be us who are unlucky." Besides, even in my Jinyi system, Qi Liao, Zhang Yinglong and others also have a relationship with it, if we do this, I'm afraid Qi Liao will also sue me and others, at this time, don't be patient, don't lose big because of small! ”

Xu Xian slammed his hand to the ground in a frightened manner, and scolded: "Just a Sun Yueling, let us Jinyi Wei be helpless, there is nothing to do, this official, should he really be his nest......"

At this time, when he heard that Sun Yueling, who had deprived himself of his fame, he was also surprised in his heart, he never expected that the Emperor of the Apocalypse would punish him so lightly - he also thought that this time it would be difficult to die well, even if he did not die, he would be tortured and exiled to the frontier.

But then I thought in my heart that it must be the Donglin Party people in the court who came forward to guarantee him and speak for him, and the Apocalypse did not punish him heavily.

After this contest, although his fame was deprived, in fact, he didn't care too much about it at all, after all, he was not a court official, but a commoner in cloth, as the so-called unofficial and light, without these court shackles, he sometimes felt more comfortable.

It's just that after this case, and thanks to Xu Xianchun and others, he finally had an official household registration register in the Ming court, although this household registration register is so unbelievable and his identity is so humble.

In the document sent to the Jiangn County Ya by the Ministry of Household for him, it is explained that he is a lonely person who grew up in Jinling City since he was a child, his father is Sun Eighteen, a flat-headed common man in Jinling City, and his mother is a strange woman who once wandered the rivers and lakes.

But these are some trivial things, and then he woke up to the great truth of how to behave in the world, and began to be angry, not only familiar with the Confucian scriptures, but also vigorously study the art of war, and since then he has become a strategic, knowledgeable person with lofty ideals, contributing to the Ming court, and has made countless contributions.

Of course, these are the work of the Donglin Party, Sun Yueling did not see it with his own eyes, and he did not know these, if he saw the Donglin Party for him "make a chapter and establish a biography" and turn decay into a magical pen, I am afraid that he will also be stunned and unbelievable.

Originally, I still planned to stay in prison for ten days and a half before going out, but judging from the current situation, I can't get out for a while, so I have to sit in prison.

Although Xu Xianchun did not come to persecute him again, in order to vent the evil anger in his heart, he still changed his cell.

Although it is not the most gloomy and dark, buggy and cockroach-ridden kind in the Imperial Prison, after all, it can no longer enjoy the Qincheng prison-like treatment at the beginning. The cell he was in now was the most ordinary in the Imperial Prison, not only was it not wide, but it was also not full of sunlight, and only at noon did some faint light shine in. There was no big bed in the cell, only straw all over the floor and a roll of straw mats.

"If you come, you will be safe!" Sun Yueling couldn't think about it, so he fell asleep.

Without the hustle and bustle of Xiong Tingbi on the side, the cell seemed to be particularly quiet, and he seemed to sleep very sweetly.

Although he was in prison, the Donglin Party members in the court, especially the brothers who cared about his cousins, still came to visit him from time to time and brought him some good wine and clothing. Therefore, although his life in prison was a little dull, there was no danger, and he could only wait quietly for the day when he would be released from prison.

Spring has passed, slowly entering the summer, the weather is gradually getting hotter, Sun Yueling is wearing a white prison robe, sitting cross-legged on the straw mat with his eyes closed.

The long days are long, and in many boring days, he can calm down and concentrate on practicing the fifth heart method of Ziwei Doujue, and this fifth heart heart method, the name is "Heavenly Prison", which refers to the fact that the meridians and organs of his whole body are a prison that imprisons people's hearts and strength, and the method to be cultivated is how to gather energy, travel around the acupoints, break through the shackles and fetters brought by his body, and achieve the realm of forgetting things and me, and the unity of heaven and man.

Back then, Li Ruobing cultivated this fifth heart method, and it took a full three years to become it, but now Sun Yueling is in prison by chance, but he has abandoned all distracting thoughts and desires, and embedded the cultivation method and spiritual cultivation of this fifth heart method. The spirit floats between heaven and earth, walking with the sun and the moon.
