Chapter 623: When is it interrupted?
There is a conspiracy, there must be a conspiracy!
If Xu Xun didn't even let go of himself, Liu Jin would inevitably suspect that Xu Xun had sent someone to follow him, and he already knew about his secret communication with King Ning last night and even a bloody alliance. However, Xu Xun lightly signaled that he could go, but Liu Jin unconsciously hesitated. At this time, everything had already happened, and he immediately asked people to inform Zhu Chenhao, the king of Ning, that was just a preparation for dealing with it, and it couldn't be stopped. But if he really brushes his sleeves away like this, Xu Xun will make some bigger fuss here by playing the topic, and no one can be sure! When the time comes, it's too late for him to regret it!
Thinking of this, Liu Jin suddenly sat down again under Xu Xun's eager farewell gaze, and said: "Forget it, our family is also the emperor's order after all, even if you are tired, you have to hold on." It's just that Pingbei Hou should not be too arbitrary! ”
"Oh, thank you Gonggong Liu for reminding me."
Seeing that Xu Xun was obviously a little disappointed, Liu Jin was secretly glad that he was not reckless, otherwise he might not be cheated by this kid. However, behind the curtain leading to the back hall behind the two, Zhu Houzhao saw this scene, but couldn't help but smack his mouth lightly.
This is obviously trying to get away with it...... Speaking of which, Xu Xun is really a thief, and Liu Jin is not his opponent! However, Liu Jin's restless attitude is really suspicious, is he really a little unclear with Zhu Chenhao, the king of Ning? No, Liu Jin has been serving him since he was a child, and he has the same heart and mind, how could he hook up with an outsider!
Liu Jin was left behind, and when Xu Xun was waiting for the human and physical evidence on the Zhou Mansion, the kind of imposing style just now was completely gone. He praised the outstanding people of Jiangxi to the political envoys on the left and right, asked the political senators about the matter of supervising the grain and supervising the register, and explored what outstanding talents there were in the Jiangxi Township Examination this year...... All in all, his enthusiastic appearance made people feel like a spring breeze, and gradually dispelled many people's sense of awe for such a young magnate. Although there are still people who are thinking about whether this is the Son of Heaven or the Son of Heaven, the atmosphere has become much more lively overall.
But this is nothing to do with Liu Jin, he is worried at the moment, he has no heart to compete with Xu Xun for attractiveness, there are many officials who are willing to serve him in the past, and he can't look down on these people at all. Of course, he didn't understand that Xu Xun usually closed the door of the Xing'an Marquis Mansion tightly, leaving almost no cracks, but now he was kind to these insignificant and insignificant people. It's putting the cart before the horse. Just when he was extremely impatient by Xu Xun's words going around, a report finally came from outside.
"Master Hou, the Zhou family's human and physical evidence have arrived!"
Hearing the report from the outside, Liu Jin raised his eyebrows for a while, and his heart was even more angry. But when the three of them helped each other into the lobby, he suddenly chuckled in his heart. I saw that one of them had one leg completely broken. He walked with a limp, the other with his arms hanging, and the other man was completely complete but his face was bruised. However, what surprised him even more was that the so-called physical evidence case files were not stacks or two, but more than a dozen boxes of case files were moved in one box!
Zhou Yi had heard Xu Xun every word before, and he was a hero of Jiangxi Fengtu and land management talents, coupled with the resolute and resolute means of this Pingbei Hou, he had a responsible and courageous style. The trepidation he had made up his mind had all gone away. At this moment, seeing that all these things were in his hands, he immediately took out his fellow jinshi, who was born in the top three, and grinded it little by little to the literary skills that he had experienced in the past ten years from the Liupin Bu Political Division, the Yamen General Administration. Which series of charges against King Ning were in each box of case files, he remembered them clearly, and even the contents of the bloody books on the paper, he burst into tears when he said it, and when he reached the emotional place, he actually knelt down on his knees, and he was already in tears. …,
"Master Hou. In the early years, King Ningkang acted perversely. The people of Jiangxi have already suffered once, but now they are more than ten times and a hundred times! All localities have donated their fields to the palace in the hope of tax exemption. But King Ning's family has always had a bad reputation, and the people did not dare to contribute. King Kening simply took one by force, and the other was to use usury to make people mortgage their homes, and they went back and forth to rob the official land and people's property of no less than 10,000 hectares or millions of acres! And Jiangxi was originally rich in fields and many merchants, but the king of Kening raised huge thieves and robbed merchants, so that the merchants did not dare to cross the border, and the people worked hard to cultivate and wanted food and clothing! Over the years, there have been countless titles on the gold list of Jiangxi's sons, and there are many famous ministers in the court, and the king of Kening is in charge, and the slightest discovery of the impeachment of the ministers of the court and the central government will make people intimidate their families, so that the officials of the Jiangxi people are uneasy......"
Speaking of this, he suddenly slammed his head on the ground, and then said in a hoarse voice: "The word Ning in King Ning's title is really a big joke in the world!" If there is a Ning domain in Jiangxi, then Jiangxi is restless, and the world is restless! ”
This last tearful accusation undoubtedly made almost everyone present change their colors. King Ning's title was set by Taizu, and King Ning's final move to Jiangxi was Taizong's decision, didn't Zhou Yi's words say that the two emperors did something wrong? Even Liu Jin was extremely proud of this handle sent to the door, but before he could stab Xu Xun, he was smashed by Zhou Yi's next sentence.
"But in addition to these heinous crimes, there is one thing that is most intolerable, King Ning personally befriended the officials of the Jiangxi Metropolitan Division, and commanded Dai Yi before he was killed, plotting against him!"
The crime of misconduct, no matter who is charged with it at any time, is the most fatal crime. At this moment, there was silence in the lobby of the political secretary's yamen, and no one dared to make the slightest sound, and Liu Jin was no different. In this dead and silent atmosphere, Zhu Houzhao in the back hall couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and forced himself to press the urge to go out and interrogate Zhou Yi in person.
After a long time, Xu Xun opened his mouth to break the silence, but there were only four concise words: "Is this true?" ”
"These three people are all from King Ning's Mansion. Although Chen Xuan and Liu Liang were punished for advice, Yan Shun, the Dian Bao Si Dian Bao Zheng, was once a close person to King Ning. People who have been to and from King Ning's Mansion many times all know that King Ning has praised him many times for his talent and learning, and said that if it weren't for the bad chance, he wouldn't have just gained fame! Yan Zicai, today the Hou Ye is in the hall, and all the adults in the political secretary are here, so you can just say it! ”
Seeing that everyone's eyes suddenly fell on himself, who was dressed in a nine-grade suit, Yan Shun, who was over forty years old, couldn't help but lower his eyelids, and then said word by word: "Yan Shun, the treasure of the Xiaguan Ning Palace, has seen the Marquis of Pingbei, Gonggong Liu and all the adults. ”
Compared with Zhou Yilai, Yan Shun is obviously a more pedantic person. Zhou Yi was still born in the same jinshi, but Yan Shun just didn't ask about foreign affairs and devoted himself to the imperial examination but tried repeatedly, because he was confused by the reputation of Ning Wangfu for recruiting talents, so he threw himself into the palace and bent down to make a nine-grade treasure. Therefore, listening to him in the lobby, he overheard King Ning colluding with giant thieves to rob the merchants, sending people to take the money to Guangdong to purchase military armor, and bribing the officers of the Jiangxi Metropolitan Division...... Although he was completely incoherent, because of this, he repeatedly made it unclear, and when he talked about his escape from the palace, he was incoherent several times, but everyone felt that the news was credible.
As for Liu Jin, who was pale, what he regretted the most at this time was that he didn't take the opportunity to withdraw immediately!
Although these witnesses and physical evidence alone may not really be able to prove King Ning's death. But that was when it was an ordinary civil official and a brocade guard official who came this time. Sitting here today, Liu Jin is the master of ceremonies, the internal official, and Xu Xun is the Marquis of Pingbei, although the title is not top-notch, but the saint and strength are top-notch. Therefore, even if the chief secretary has some amount of most of the things that have been revealed today, no one dares to say a word. …,
"Father-in-law Liu, what do you think?"
Seeing that Xu Xun suddenly turned his head sideways and asked himself with great respect and modesty, Liu Jin simply didn't scold on the spot. You are talking about things again, promising not to show favoritism, and letting people look at Wang Lun, and you are from the Zhou family to show these witnesses and physical evidence...... What did you just ask me about, and now you're pretending again?
However, since he finally looked forward to Xu Xun starting to ask for his opinion, Liu Jin had to take a deep breath, and then said with a smile: "It is said that the evidence of the crime is conclusive, but the case file is the statement of the common people, and the Tian Deed and so on are not accurate, as for King Ning's so-called counterconspiracy, it is only one side of the words of the three people in this palace." It would be too hasty to rely on these sins......"
Before Liu Jin had the opportunity to speak at length, Xu Xun said with a smile: "Since Gonggong Liu said so...... Just ask Gonggong Liu to go to King Ning's Mansion and personally inquire about this matter? ”
This is exactly what Liu Jin wanted to mention, but at this moment, Xu Xun mentioned it instead, but Liu Jin had a feeling that he had been calculated. If you have the heart to continue to push it off, don't say that today's matter has directly put the word conspiracy on the table, really let Xu Xun and the others go back to report, Zhu Chenhao will drag him into the water together; But if you go...... Is he really going to get on that thief ship? At that time, although Xu Xun and others could get rid of these thorns in their eyes, but the love between him and Zhu Houzhao for more than ten years was also gone!
"Father-in-law Liu? If you are tired, why don't I let people know Grandpa Zhang or Grandpa Gu? ”
Facing Xu Xun's unusually concerned smiling face, Liu Jin gritted his teeth, and finally stood up with his heart sideways, but said with a forced smile: "The Lu of the Eater, the matter of loyalty to the King, our family will hold on to this trip again!" ”
