Chapter 408: Zai! Phase 3

readx;

The matter of the cremation case of the Criminal Department, Wen Tiren is getting darker and darker, and Chongzhen doesn't want to listen to his defense anymore, these are officials and ministers, who doesn't have any friendship in private. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoWen Tiren helped Li Zicheng pacify Chengdong Village to assassinate the power, it should be a personal relationship between the two. But Chongzhen can't stand the power of someone stretching their claws out to him! Especially during this sensitive and special period.

When Chongzhen questioned Wen Tiren's private jade seal, stamped it without authorization, and falsely passed on the holy decree, Wen Tiren's heart was half cold. If the previous ones are just a small trick of officialdom, then this matter is a big deal to lose your head and punish the nine clans! Even if Wen Tiren had been prepared, he would never have imagined that this incident would happen so soon!

There is still a glimmer of hope for continuing to argue, and bowing your head and admitting guilt may be killed on the spot. Wen Tiren decided to take a risk, because he heard that the two Ouchi who followed Zhu Qing to the camp were dead, and there was no proof of death. And the other person involved in this matter, Liu Gonggong, has a major handle in his hands, forgive him and dare not shake this matter out, not to mention that he did not see Liu Gonggong's figure at this time.

"Your Majesty, wronged, Your Majesty, Wechen has never seen any fake jade seals, and the holy decree of the reward was handed over to Gonggong Liu by Wechen intact." The cunning Wen Tiren bit Liu Gonggong to death, presumably without fear.

"Qinglong, how do you explain it?" Chongzhen could only push the problem onto Zhu Qing.

Zhu Qing arched his hand forward and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has indeed seen two holy decrees that can almost be fake, if you don't see it with your own eyes, Qinglong wouldn't dare to believe it." As he spoke, Zhu Qing gestured to Sai Shiqian, and Sai Shiqian presented the fake holy decree to Chongzhen.

Chongzhen opened it and frowned, "Isn't this the holy decree I issued?" Wen Ge Lao, take a look, yes or no? Chongzhen said, turning the holy decree to Wen Tiren, Wen Tiren squinted his eyes, nodded and said, "This is the holy decree that the emperor gave to Weichen." Qinglong, what is your intention to fool the emperor with the true holy decree? Wen Tiren turned to attack Zhu Qing.

Zhu Qing smiled slightly, "Please ask the emperor to take a closer look at the content of the holy decree." ā€

Only then did Chongzhen read it seriously and silently, but when he saw half of it, his face changed greatly, "Five hundred taels? This...... I obviously gave Zhang Xianzhong eight million taels, how did it become five million taels? , why did Huzi and Liu Zongmin each have an extra two million taels?! On the contrary, you are simply the opposite! What the hell is going on?! The more Chongzhen looked at it, the more angry he became, and he rubbed the holy decree fiercely.

"Your Majesty, this is the holy decree you gave to Weichen, is it that when the prince drafted the decree, he wrote the wrong number? Look at that big seal, it's a real jade seal. Wen Tiren saw that Chongzhen had discovered the clue of the holy decree, so he pulled Wang Chengen out to cushion his back.

Chongzhen looked at it repeatedly, but he didn't find anything wrong, and muttered, "This seems to be my jade seal." ā€

When Wen Tiren heard this, he lowered his head and smiled coldly, thinking that he had successfully transferred the disaster to Wang Chengen.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Qing suddenly stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, in fact, that is a false holy decree!" ā€

"What? This is a false decree?! Chongzhen exclaimed, and looked at it a few more times, he was about to summon Wang Chengen over to make it clear, and after hearing Zhu Qing's words, he glared at Wen Tiren again.

Wen Tiren was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly fought back, "Qinglong, what nonsense are you talking about?" That's obviously the seal of the real jade seal, are you doubting the emperor's vision?! ā€

Zhu Qing shook his head and said with a smile, "No, on the contrary, Lord Wen, you are doubting the emperor's eyes." Zhu Qing said, and said to Chongzhen, "Your Majesty, the red seal seems to be printed by a jade seal, but in fact, it is not the case, it is a fake jade seal." ā€

"Oh? How to tell? Chongzhen looked at the red poke repeatedly. Although he took the jade seal and got it soft, he really didn't care much about distinguishing the authenticity, and no one could have imagined that one day someone would do something on it!

"This, I'm afraid I'll have to hire another master." Zhu Qing said, and then glanced at Shi Qian, who nodded and whistled outside the door.

Everyone looked out of the door in amazement, who was the master!

"The guilty minister knocks on the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the mother, long live, thousand years old." Father-in-law is father-in-law, this person has not yet entered the door, and the voice of please be safe has already come in.

When Gonggong Liu walked in the door, Chongzhen and Wen Tiren were stunned!

"Grandpa Liu?!" The two of them exclaimed in unison.

"Wow, the emperor, the guilty minister is wrong the emperor!" Who knew that as soon as Gonggong Liu entered the door, he knelt on the ground, and cried, leaving everyone in the study at a loss.

"Okay, Gonggong Liu, stop acting, tell the emperor about the holy decree." Zhu Qingdang was fair to Gong Liu.

Gonggong Liu was exposed by Zhu Qing, so he had to lower his voice and pretend to sob, "Your Majesty, what you are holding in your hand is indeed a false holy decree, and what the criminal minister is holding is a real holy decree, Your Majesty." As soon as Gonggong Liu spoke, he took out the true holy decree and presented it to Chongzhen.

"Your Majesty, in addition to the difference in the number of contents of this true and false holy decree, the biggest difference is the Great Seal. The red seal on the holy decree of Nadao that the emperor just took is more vivid and uneven than the red seal on this one. That's because of the new jade and new seals, and the color and outline of the seals on the True Divine Decree are very uniform, and that's because of the old seals that can only be printed. The emperor can take out the jade seal and know the authenticity with a seal. Liu Gonggong explained.

Chongzhen was suspicious, so he asked Queen Zhou to take out the jade seal and stamp it with a seal, which was really the most similar to the mark on the holy decree presented by Gonggong Liu.

"What the hell is going on? What decree did you decree that day?! Chongzhen tried it, and asked Gonggong Liu angrily.

Gonggong Liu knelt on the ground and trembled, he glanced at Wen Tiren, Wen Tiren stared at him viciously, he looked at Zhu Qing again, Zhu Qing smiled at him and nodded. If Gonggong Liu still had a glimmer of hope for Wen Tiren before entering the door, then now, he has finally strengthened his position, that is, to take refuge in Jinyiwei!

"Your Majesty, the criminal minister was confused for a while, and issued a false holy decree on the same day!" Gonggong Liu said, and lowered his head with remorse.

"You! ......" Chongzhen was indignant, but it was difficult to vent, Liu Gonggong took the initiative to admit his guilt, he couldn't cut people on the spot, right? What's more, there is also Zhu Qing to help Liu Gonggong speak.

"Your Majesty, according to the general's understanding, Gonggong Liu was forced to make a mistake for a while." Zhu Qing said, and glanced at Wen Tiren.

"Qinglong, what do you mean?" Wen Tiren retorted.

"Hmph, what do you mean? Father-in-law Liu, it's better for you to tell the emperor yourself. Zhu Qing was fair to Gong Liu.

"Yin and Yang people, I advise you not to spew blood!" Wen Tiren threatened, and wanted to threaten Liu's father-in-law's hometown.

Who knew that it was okay if he didn't say it, as soon as he said that Gonggong Liu was a yin and yang person, Gonggong Liu was even more annoyed, so he stood up angrily, pointed at Wen Tiren and said, "It's you!" When you gave me the true decree, you gave me a false decree, saying that if I preach the false decree, I will be blessed with a prosperous future. Fortunately, I was scared at the time, and left the True Holy Decree, and later fortunately the Qinglong Enlightenment, I realized how stupid and dangerous I was to listen to you in the first place. Gonggong Liu was so frightened that he pressed Wen Tiren step by step, Wen Tiren could only keep retreating, and said in a panic when he retreated, "Crazy, just crazy, you mad dog, crazy to bite people!" ā€

"Someone, stop him!" Chongzhen looked at Gonggong Liu's appearance, and he was also frightened at that time, so he quickly asked someone to pull him away.

As soon as Gonggong Liu was pulled away, Wen Tiren bowed forward and said, "Your Majesty, you have seen it, this is a mad dog, he is biting people indiscriminately!" It must have been him and Jinyi Wei who murdered the emperor's two Ouchi! ā€

When Chongzhen heard this, he remembered that Ouchi he personally sent was killed by Zhu Qing for no apparent reason, and he felt a little unhappy in his heart.

"Qinglong, it seems that it is difficult for your witnesses to convince Elder Wen Ge." Chongzhen said lightly to Zhu Qing, he has reason to believe that Gonggong Liu may also be bought by Zhu Qing!

Zhu Qing and the others were a little disappointed after hearing this, but they still couldn't help but have no words from Chongzhen, even Queen Zhou beside Chongzhen felt that Chongzhen was too fond of Wen Tiren, if he was an ordinary person, he didn't know how many times he would die now.

Even if the situation is not optimistic, Zhu Qing is still optimistic, because he is confident that he will bring down Wen Tiren, if he doesn't work, these people with him and even the Ming Dynasty will face a real catastrophe.

Zhu Qing walked up to Wen Tiren, and he saw in the eyes of this man the cunning of traitors and the horror of literati.

"Hmph, Wen didn't make any fake jade seals privately, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint General Qinglong." Wen Tiren, who had already destroyed the fake jade seal, became fearless at this time, and he didn't take Zhu Qing seriously.

But Zhu Qing sneered at him quietly, "Of course I know that Lord Wen has destroyed the physical evidence, but fortunately, we found someone. Zhu Qing said, and shouted to Suzaku, "Bring him up!" ā€

"Yes, General!" Suzaku answered, and brought one of them up.

This person is obviously not from the government, but an ordinary person, and it is estimated that it is the first time to enter the palace, and he seems extremely nervous.

But when Chongzhen and the others were puzzled by this person, Wen Tiren showed fear seriously! There seems to be a hint of remorse mixed with fear, and hatred for this person is still in the world.

"Your Majesty! He is the craftsman who forged the jade seal. Zhu Qing explained, and said to the craftsman, "You tell the emperor the truth about the situation that day, and I will keep you safe." ā€

When the craftsman heard this, he quickly nodded his head again and again, and then stepped forward and bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, when the night was about to close, two guest officers came to find the little one to make a seal, because it was getting late, and the little one had rejected the two of them. Later, another guest officer said that they were in a hurry to make this seal, and asked the small ones to be made in a hurry. Although the guest officer had a broken hand, the knife in his other hand was really scary. The little one was frightened at that time, and then the guest officer in front of him said to the little one that as long as the little one could help him make the seal, he would reward the little one hundred taels of silver. Under coercion and temptation, the little one agreed to them, and carved the seal according to the template and jade material they gave him. The small carver was not bad, and the two of them were very satisfied after carving. I don't know if it was nervousness or survival instinct, the craftsman suddenly had an unusually clear mind, and he shook out the situation of the day at once.

When Chongzhen heard this, he picked up the false holy decree and signaled to the craftsman, "They asked you to engrave it that day, but this seal?" ā€

When the craftsman saw it, he nodded again and again, and said excitedly, "It was this seal, and they did a good thing for the imperial court at that time." But when they left, they found that they did not have silver taels with them. The small ones rushed to them overnight, of course they can't learn from the overlord! The little one didn't let the two of them leave. The man with the broken arm was furious and wanted to draw his sword. It was this man who stopped him. And took off a piece of jade pendant on his body and gave it to the small one, saying that this is a priceless jade jade, which can be worth tonight's expenses. The little ones had also seen the baby, so they knew that this jade was true, so they let them go. Yesterday, Suzaku went to the small shop and said that the little one was in trouble, so he brought the little one here. The emperor, the little grass people, don't understand the battle of your official family, please beg the emperor to spare his life, let the little one go back to reunite with the family. As he spoke, the craftsman knocked his head several more times.

The more Wen Tiren listened, the more anxious he became, and after he finished talking to the craftsman, he shouted forward, "The reckless man in the countryside dares to come here and spread wild!" Come on, pull this Diao people down and behead them! Wen Tiren suddenly shouted, you can imagine how much he regretted not letting the big man with the broken arm do it in the first place. Needless to say, the big man with the broken arm must be the second leader of the iron-faced door, Tie Song!

"Presumptuous!" Chongzhen suddenly shouted, "I'm here, it's not your turn to kill people at will!" ā€

Hearing Chongzhen's angry shout, Wen Tiren was really worried at this moment, he knew that Chongzhen had endured it to the limit. hurriedly bowed his head and apologized, "The minister is reckless, please forgive the emperor." ā€

Chongzhen glared at Wen Tiren with disdain, and then said to the craftsman kneeling on the ground, "Did you bring the jade pendant you said?" ā€

I thought I was too nervous, and I was drunk by Wen Tiren just now, and the craftsman didn't react for a while. Suzaku walked over, "The emperor asked you about the jade pendant." ā€

"Oh oh oh, here! Jade pendant is here! Such a valuable treasure, the small one is also the first time to get it, and I don't dare to gamble on it, so I always carry it with me. As he spoke, the craftsman handed the jade pendant to Suzaku, who presented it to Chongzhen.

When Chongzhen got the jade pendant, he shouted angrily at Wen Tiren, "You tell me, besides you, who else in the world surnamed Wen can afford to wear such a precious jade?!" As soon as Chongzhen drank, he threw the jade pendant in his hand in front of Wen Tiren, and the jade pendant broke on the ground, and the word "Wen" was broken in half.

Seeing this, Wen Tiren softened his feet and fell to his knees!

"Your Majesty! The minister has convicted the emperor! The minister's false transmission of the holy decree is all to deceive the invading army and cause chaos within the invading army, so that Qinglong can recover the intruding army, Your Majesty! Facts have proved that Zhang Xianzhong is the emperor! Weichen is breaking into the army in a discord, your majesty! "The cunning Wen Tiren! To the moment of kneeling is still stubborn.

Judging from Zhu Qing's battle report, Zhang Xianzhong was really dissatisfied with the reward, so he fell into Huzi's aggressive method and was killed by Huzi. Chongzhen's murderous intent was softened by Wen Tiren's powerful mouth again. He tilted his head and closed his eyes, suppressing the anger in his heart, for fear that he would make the wrong choice!

Seeing Wen Tiren so old-fashioned, Zhu Qing felt that there was no need to reason with this kind of person, he took out the full moon scimitar and glared at Wen Tiren angrily!

"The Emperor...... Emperor! Qinglong is going to commit murder, Your Majesty! Someone! Escort! Wen Tiren exclaimed, and crawled towards Chongzhen. The people in the study couldn't imagine why Zhu Qing suddenly pulled out his sword, you must know that it is very dangerous to draw a knife in front of the emperor!

"You...... What do you want?! Chongzhen also panicked.

"Qinglong?"

"General?"

Suzaku and others dissuaded one after another.

But Zhu Qing didn't seem to have the intention of stopping, he screamed and threw out the scimitar!

"Ahh I could only hear a scream in the study, and the scimitar flew around in front of Wen Tiren's eyes and flew towards the door!

"Bang Dang" lifted off a sedan chair parked in the courtyard, this carriage that looks like a sedan chair is actually a bright prisoner car, and the one locked in it is Zu Dashou!

The prisoner car was shattered, and I saw Zu Dashou roar angrily, so he rushed out of the prisoner cart and rushed straight to the study.

Wen Tiren and Shousuke, when did he suffer such a fierce impact? He was slammed into the hall and spurted out a mouthful of blood with a "poof"!

"You yin! What do you say about dividing the army, you and the army are in the same group! I want Lao Tzu to open the seal for you, but let the army sneak attack Lao Tzu! Zu Dashou was still ambiguous about Zhu Qing's sneak attack that night, because he saw that hundreds of thousands of intruders suddenly appeared in the suburbs of Beijing, which made Zu Dashou can't help but hate Zhu Qing, but also Li Zicheng and Wen Tiren, and felt cheated by these two people.

When Wen Tiren was speaking, Zhu Qing heard that the prisoner car outside was agitated, so he suddenly came to such a hand! I didn't expect it to save a lot of saliva.

Seeing that even Zu Dashou was controlled by Zhu Qing to the capital, Wen Tiren could hardly parry at this time.

"Someone! Take down the anti-minister Wen Tiren! Zhu Qing gave an order, and this time, Chongzhen didn't stop it. Because Zu Dashou was personally recommended and sent by Wen Tiren, and now it is Zu Dashou who is against him, so there is no need to say more.

At this time, two Ouchi rushed in from outside the door and tied up Wen Tiren, who had collapsed to the ground!

"General Qiyu! Xing Jiang Dong and others attempted to rebel, but they have been controlled by us! "The one who came to report was Liu Qingfeng's proud disciple, Hou Xin, the deputy general of the Ouchi.

"Good! Remit the main culprit to a prison for trial! Zhu Qing ordered.

"Yes!"

"Report!" This is, a brocade guard came to report.

"What's the matter? Say it! Zhu Qing was worried, because this Jinyi Guard was the one who guarded the Jinyi Guard's prison with Zhu Qing's guards outside the town! And Jinyiwei is imprisoned in the prison of Killing Feng and Liu Qingfeng!

"Report to the general! There are only a few iron-masked men rebels who will break into the Jinyi Guard's prison on the pretext of delivering food, trying to attack the two adults, and have been jointly killed by the imperial guards outside the town and Ouchi! ā€

After Zhu Qing heard this, he breathed a long sigh of relief, and he quietly looked at Chongzhen who was sitting in the main hall.

"Don't think I don't know anything, the two of them are no safer on the outside than they are inside." Chongzhen smiled at Zhu Qing.

Only then did Zhu Qing seriously thank Chongzhen.

"The order will go down, put Wen Tiren and other anti-ministers in the prison, and try the trial on a certain day! Order Killing Wind, Liu Qingfeng and other two adults to release immediately! Chongzhen shouted.

"Yes!" Jin Yiwei and General Ouchi rebelled against the generals and took them down.

By this time, the sky was already faintly bright.
