Chapter 489: Counterattack (Part II)
When it comes to the reputation of Jinyiwei, it is naturally well known to the government and the opposition, as long as they target and are arrested and tortured, there is almost no one who does not obediently confess all the blame according to their intentions. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Because of this, how many loyal ministers of the Ming Dynasty were unjustly killed in the edict, which also made the name of Jinyi Wei edict prison worthy of being the most stinky.
Song Liangzuo was worried that he couldn't object to Yang Zhen helping Dongchang, but this time he could be regarded as having found an opportunity, so he immediately continued: "Lord Zhong, why do you bother to ask? This is clearly a lie that Yang Zhen deliberately fabricated in order to achieve his ulterior purpose, as long as people are imprisoned by them, what kind of confession cannot be obtained. If Yang Zhenfu really has a clear conscience, he only needs to mention those two people from Dongchang to our hall to take a look. Presumably, these two Dongchang people are already covered in bruises, and they are miserable, right? ”
His words really hit the nail on the head of Yang Zhen, and he also believed that if he hadn't tortured those two people, they would never have confessed to the confession. And Zhao Wuxian over there was also very cooperative, and said continuously: "My lord is wise, if he can really send Chang Wei and Chai Jinhui safely, our Dongchang will admit this crime!" ”
Zhong Yu felt even more uneasy when he heard this, and couldn't help but glance at Yang Zhen, seeing that he didn't agree to this proposal, he knew that the matter was indeed said by the other party. This made Zhong Yu feel embarrassed, although he had the heart to help Yang Zhen, but he also had his own bottom line, but he didn't want to really help someone who shouldn't have helped.
Yang Zhen had a sneer on the corner of his mouth, watching the two of them constantly adding fuel and vinegar and talking nonsense. Because everyone knows that how can you not suffer when you enter the Jinyi Guard's prison? But they really think that they can reverse black and white as long as they grasp this onslaught, but they are underestimating themselves.
After there was no more sound in the hall and everyone looked at him, Yang Zhen spoke: "I can say bluntly that those two Dongchang criminals were indeed punished at the hands of my Jinyiwei, so I can't agree to this article you mentioned." However......" In the suspicious eyes of everyone, Yang Zhen turned the conversation again: "In addition to these confessions, this official has other evidence to prove that this case was secretly framed by people in Dongchang, and Tang Qianhu was killed by them." ”
"Oh? What other evidence is there? Zhong Yu hurriedly asked, with a hint of nervousness in his expression. It's impossible for him not to be nervous, after all, it's a matter of whether he should help Yang Zhen or not.
"One is the confession of Yuan Taidong, a thousand households of my Jinyi guard guarding the edict prison, but he did not receive any punishment, he can testify that he was instructed by someone to order his subordinates to secretly kill Tang Qianhu in prison." Yang Zhen stretched out a finger and said.
Just when Zhong Yu was slightly overjoyed, Song Liangzuo shook his head like a rattle: "This is your Jinyiwei's person, how can his testimony be counted?" It's an ordinary case, and the confessions made by people who are close to the criminal can't be trusted, let alone that he's your subordinate! ”
"Exactly, Yang Zhen, don't be delusional about getting by." Zhao Wu was sad and relieved, and hurriedly hit Yang Zhen with such words, and at the same time improved his confidence.
However, his words couldn't affect Yang Zhen's mood at all, and after seeing the latter smile, he said: "Since this is the case, then I have a second person certificate, but his status is noble, and I haven't wanted to mention it." But at this time, for the sake of Tang Qianhu's innocence and in order to clear his grievances, he couldn't take care of it. ”
"Do you have any other witnesses? Then don't hurry up. Hu Rangjie hurriedly asked. And Song Liangzuo's two expressions became nervous again, as if they had a premonition, and they intuitively found that the last point mentioned by Yang Zhen must be the most difficult for them to argue and parry.
Sure enough, I saw Yang Zhen say after a slight hesitation: "Just now, the official never told me how I found out that Tang Qianhu was wrongly imprisoned by someone who was calculated. And the one who made me understand all this was none other than Taining Hou Chen-Liangbi. It was he who told me that Chang Wei of Dongchang had secretly seen him that day, asked him for some treasures in the house, and asked him to report the theft to the Shuntian Mansion. At that time, because Marquis Chen didn't know their true purpose, and because he had the other party's assurance that he would not ignore his own things, and he didn't dare to offend Dongchang, he agreed to the matter. It wasn't until the case happened later, when Tang Qianhu was accused of stealing treasures and was imprisoned, and was finally killed in prison, that Chen Houye knew that he had become an accomplice of Dongchang.
For this, he regretted and blamed himself, and he also thought about making the truth public. However, the East Factory is powerful, and he can't afford to provoke Taininghou, so he can only give up. But even so, he was always haunted by this in his heart, and it was not until the official had some friendship with him because of another case and talked about it by chance that he told the truth. In this way, I will lead people to take down the two Dongchang murderers one after another and expose the truth of the case.
"If you really don't believe me, you can go and invite Marquis Chen to ask him face to face. Also, there are more people who know about this matter, Wu Qingbo Li Wei, and Zhenyuan Marquis Gu Huan. A few adults can also invite a few of them to confront each other and ask for clarification. ”
After listening to Yang Zhen's big words, the hall was suddenly silent. Not only were the surrounding servants a little stunned, but Zhao Wushu and the two of them were nervous, even Zhong Yu and Hu Rangjie were also full of surprise. I didn't expect Yang Zhen to have such a hole card, and this hole card is something that no one can overturn.
Those few people are all powerful people in the capital, and their status and identity are all there, so their words naturally cannot but be accepted. If these people, especially Wu Qingbo and Li Wei, really said that they did know about this matter as Yang Zhen said, I am afraid that even Feng Bao would not dare to refute it. After all, he is the father of the current Queen Mother, and when he is today's grandfather, who dares to question his words?
Seeing that everyone was dumbfounded, Yang Zhen stepped forward again and said solemnly: "In addition, I have to sue someone." ”
"Who else are you going to sue?" Hu Rangjie felt a shock in his heart, but he still asked subconsciously.
"That's my Jinyi Guard's Governor Liu Shou." Yang Zhenyu said endlessly: "I have obtained an exact confession from Yuan Taidong before, and the one who asked him to kill Tang Feng in the edict prison is Liu Shouyou. Only the governor of our Jinyi Guard can order someone to kill Tang Qianhu in prison before the case is concluded! So in addition to the few people who arranged this poisonous plan in Dongchang, I also have to sue Liu Shouyou! ”
"What?" This time, Zhong Yudu felt that his head was about to explode, how could this case be investigated and changed direction, and it became that Yang Zhen was overturning the case for Tang Feng? It's just that he overturned the case, and he actually involved so many difficult characters, and none of these characters were something that the three of them officials could ask at will.
At this time, Zhao Wuxian looked at Yang Zhen in disbelief, as if he was looking at a madman: "What does this guy want to do?" Why did he suddenly point the finger at his boss again? Could it be that he had expected this day, so he wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of Liu Shouyou as well? Such a bold and meticulous idea made Zhao Wuxian, who has always been bold and reckless, a little scared.
"Two adults, please take a step to speak." Hu Rangjie suddenly whispered to Zhong Yu and Song Liangzuo.
The two of them understood, quickly got up and came to the back of the screen in the lobby, and discussed in a low voice. This time the triage of the three divisions suddenly became like this, which was indeed greatly beyond the control and expectation of the three of them, which made the three of them have to discuss and see how to make a decision in unison.
"In my opinion, Yang Zhen's crime this time will definitely not be determined, what do you two think?" Hu Rangjie asked after glancing at the two colleagues.
Although he was unwilling, Song Liangzuo had to admit it, so he nodded silently. And Zhong Yu naturally wouldn't object: "That's right, whether he is taking people by force, or using forbidden weapons such as bows and crossbows, he can tell a reason, we really can't convict him." ”
"You and I were also ordered to review this case, and since there is a consensus on the case, we can make a conclusion in court and then withdraw from the court." Hu Rangjie proposed again.
"Huh?" The other two were slightly stunned, and they understood what he meant. They are only responsible for the case of Yang Zhen breaking into the East Factory to kill people and take people, as for the case of Tang Feng's unjust murder that may have a deeper impact, it is not within their scope of responsibility. Leave the court now, the three of them can still get out of the court, otherwise if they really get involved in this case, it will be difficult to say what the result will be.
After a long silence, both officials nodded in agreement. Since he can't help Dongchang anymore, Song Liangzuo naturally won't get involved in such a tricky case anymore, and as for Zhong Yu, he won't get involved in it until he is sure that this matter is really as Yang Zhen said.
Therefore, when the three officials turned out from behind the screen again, they made a solemn announcement to everyone present: "After the first trial of the three officials, it is really their duty for Yang Zhen and Jinyiwei to take people in the East Factory, so they will not be investigated, and they naturally have no guilt and will be acquitted on the spot." In addition, as for Tang Feng's case, since it is not within the scope of our three divisions' responsibilities, we will not intervene in it. Retire! ”
In the uniform and mighty whispers of the messengers, Yang Zhen walked out of the hall proudly, and made a gesture to the brothers outside the hall that everything had been done, which immediately provoked a burst of cheers from the brocade guards. On the other hand, it is the look of loss and resentment of everyone since Zhao Wuxian was injured in Dongchang, but after Yang Zhen and them suffered a big loss, these Dongchang fans no longer dare to provoke easily.
A turmoil subsided, and the matter spread outside the yamen, which also made the people waiting outside hear a novelty, and quickly spread throughout the city. However, Yang Zhen was not satisfied with this, he would take advantage of the victory to pursue, and before this matter cooled down, he avenged Tang Feng's grievances and avenged him!
