Chapter 807: The Interrogation (I)

Tongzhou Station, the cold wind howling.

From Huai'an to Beijing, "1,500 miles, it took only five days to run silently" has finally reached the limit. Although the capital was in front of him, he rested in the post station in Tongzhou.

I didn't care about anything, I slept in the dark first, and when I woke up, it was already noon the next day, although I was still sore, but at least Jing was much better. Pan Tuǐ sat on the hot kang, drinking golden xiao rice porridge while listening to Yu Yin, who came overnight, to report on the situation in Beijing.

"The adults have not been in Beijing in the past few months, but they have missed a series of good shows." Yu Yin xiao said: "The fight inside and outside the palace is unopenable" First of all, the imperial history of the left capital Wang Tingxiang, wrote to ask the palace jiao to be the lieutenant who committed murder in the Liuke Corridor, which was rejected by the emperor due to insufficient evidence; Then, Li Kezuo asked Wang Zhi and the royal history of the king in the matter, and asked for the annual fee of the supervision bureaus of the inner government, and was asked to stop by Cui Min, the eunuch of the inner transport library, "and under the insistence of the two kings, "the emperor only allowed the part of Jiajing after 41 years", but still found out that the eunuchs embezzled a lot of accounts, and the two kings asked for severe punishment, but the emperor ordered the criminal department to deal with it "without going through the outer court" on the grounds that there is a difference between inside and outside. ”

"Seeing that the emperor has protected the eunuch temple a lot" Kedao said that the official boiled against Yingtian, and the six departments and nine qings also had many complaints, so far, Kedao no longer treats the emperor and the eunuch temple differently, and "all the decrees under the decree are returned" will not be promulgated! ", thinking of the big luan fighting outside the palace in the past few months" Yu Yin couldn't help but gasp and said: "As a result, "The palace sent Lu Yong and several others to take charge of the four guards of the forbidden army, and they were stopped by the military department!" Sent Lu Xiang to guard Taihe Mountain" was admonished by Ouyang Yijing! The eunuchs' newly opened imperial shop in the capital was also sealed by the new imperial historian Li Xuedao, who led the soldiers and horses to seal it down on the grounds of violating the constitution! The eunuchs held a grudge, and even tricked Li Xuedao into the palace to beat him on the grounds that the emperor had summoned him, and when he was brought out, he was already dying......"

"And such a thing?" Shen Mo was slightly surprised, "I haven't heard of it. ”

"This was seven days ago" The adults may be too busy to pay attention for a while. Yu Yin said: "The officials couldn't bear it, and they actually beat the Dengwen drum again, "Hundreds of people went to the noon gate to die" and those who were carried away, there are great, and the strong man will not return, the posture! ”

"What about the palace?" Shen Mo frowned slightly, he couldn't help but worry about the indecisive emperor, this situation must have hurt him a lot...... People are not grass and trees, who can be ruthless, Longqing treats Shen Mo with true affection, "Shen Mo also consciously thinks about him.

The eunuchs also knelt on the ground in front of the emperor, crying and begging the emperor to make decisions for them, "The emperor also had no idea, so he summoned the cabinet to ask questions" Yu Yin said, "But Xu Gelao's attitude was very ambiguous, "But that means that the emperor should be impartial...... In fact, the emperor's meaning was to let Xu Ge Lao come forward and persuade the Yanguan to go back, but Xu Ge Lao still walked towards the Yanguan, and the emperor was very disappointed. "The eunuchs never take care of it", not to mention that the opponent is the embodiment of justice, "Kedao Yanguan, so only by pulling the bias frame can the former be saved" and Xu Jie's attitude is self-evident if he wants to play Tai Chi.

"What about ...... in the end," Shen Mo asked softly.

In the end, the emperor punished a few eunuchs who beat people, and criticized them for being poor, "although it is far from meeting the requirements of the officials", but it can be regarded as giving them a sigh of relief. Yu Yin said slowly: "Elder Xu Ge just went out and persuaded all the officials kneeling outside the palace to go back." He sighed. Qi said: ", I want the student to say, Xu Jie is really a little confused, blindly protecting those officials, if this continues, the rift with the emperor will get bigger and bigger."

"Xu Ge always has a hard time", Shen Mo lowered his voice and said: "There are some things, you are outside the palace, you don't know, since Gao Gong went, the emperor's affection for him" has not decreased but increased, often people will let him enter the palace to speak, and when the palace people return to "Gao Ge Lao has already paid tribute, he will be very depressed" often cried: "Why do they treat my loyal ministers like this? , and then asked, "Can you please him back?" , The eunuch was completely annoyed by Xu Ge Lao, so he replied: , I'm afraid that someone won't agree to ......, the emperor was silent for a long time after hearing this, and Fang sighed and said: If that's the case, what does this emperor smell like in front of him? ”,”

For this secret, Yu Yin really heard about it for the first time, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but nod and said, "In this case" Elder Xu Ge really has no choice but to rely on Yanguan. ”

"This is just a rumor in the palace, and it is impossible to verify the truth or falsehood...... "Shen Mo glanced at Yu Yin and said lightly: "But now looking at Xu Ge Lao's reaction, it seems that it is not far from ten." ”

"If I were Xu Ge Lao, I would rather believe it than believe it." , Yu Yin's eyes flashed and said, "It's just ...... In this way, the rift with the emperor will be deeper, I don't know what Xu Ge always thinks. ”

"Don't worry about others," Shen Mo shook his head and said, "Let's talk about my own business." ”

"Yes......" Yu Yin was not a big talker, and immediately returned to the topic when he heard the words: "The matter of Hu Dashuai has been basically investigated, although Hu Dashuai has been in the field for three years, some people in the Metropolitan Procuratorate have never given up the investigation of him" "Paused and said: "Moreover, the current Zuodu Yushi Wang Tingxiang is Wang Bengu's own brother......

"Wang Tingxiang, Wang Bengu", silent brows furrowed tightly, these two are well-known Qingliu ministers, their power is secondary, the most tricky thing is that they occupy the height of Dao morality, can indiscriminately, so that the opponent bears the brand of jiān evil. Therefore, no one wants to touch the stones in these pits until they have no choice but to do so.

"Yes, although Wang Tingxiang has just become the imperial history of the left capital, he has been in the Metropolitan Procuratorate for the longest time and has the greatest energy, and he has always covered up the secret investigation of Hu Dashuai's affairs very well." Yu Yin also explained the details: "The person specifically responsible for this matter is the Yudu Yushi Wanlun who is in charge of Yan Shifan's case" This person has been traveling around Jiangxi, Huizhou and other places for three years, and the crime of verifying Yan Shifan, Luo Longwen and others "is actually to find out ironclad evidence for dealing with Hu Dashuai...... Wang Bengu, who was transferred from Xijiang to Jiangxi, in order to avoid suspicion, although he did not take the initiative to inquire about the matter, he contributed people and was very dedicated, and his intention was clearly revealed. ”

"What kind of evidence is that?" Shen Mo waved his hand and asked in a deep voice.

"From Yan Shifan's son's house, they found out the secret letter written by Hu Dashuai to Wang Zhi in the past, as well as the forged holy decree." , Yu Yin sighed and said: "Yan Shifan is worthy of being called the smartest person in the world, he has already bought Jiang Zhou and others who are responsible for contacting Wang Zhi, and every letter written by Hu Dashuai to Wang Zhi has been transcribed and imitated by master craftsmen, and the moose product is returned to Jiang Zhou, and the real thing is kept." "This hand" is obviously to prevent Hu Zongxian's high achievements from getting out of control in the future, as long as there are these letters and false holy intentions, even if Hu Zongxian is named the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses by the emperor, he must obediently obey his orders.

It's just that people are not as good as heaven, and before the day he tore his face with Hu Zongxian, Yan Shifan went to the guillotine first, but he left these things behind, and finally a few years after his death, he harmed Hu Dashuai again......

"The Criminal Department has already verified it, and those things are true." Yu Yin said worriedly: "The student knows that Hu Dashuai forged the holy decree to the king to confer the title of official Xu Jue in order to bring him ashore. However, the crime of forging the holy decree is tantamount to complicity in rebellion, and it cannot be reversed. ”

Shen looked at the cold xiao rice porridge in the bowl and didn't say a word. In fact, back then, he reminded Hu Zongxian not to leave trouble in the future. But Hu Zongxian can't be like him, no matter what he does, he will first communicate with Jiajing that between him and the emperor, "there is still a layer of Yan family father and son, and it will definitely not work to cross them without authorization." In order to avoid extraneous complications, Hu Zongxian made his own decisions on many things, and the effect at that time was immediate, but now it has become an indelible nightmare.

But what surprised Shen Mo even more was still to come, Yu Yin reported in a low voice: "The news I just received before I came, our people" secretly opened the secret letter sent to Shandong by the Metropolitan Procuratorate "and found that Wang Ting's friends and friends were Du Yu Shi Wanlun and Shandong Inspector Hu Yanqing were suddenly interrogating Hu Dashuai in the middle of the way, so be sure to ask for a confession!" He frowned tightly and said, "Such abnormal actions prove that what they are trying to do is not just a Hu Zongxian...... They are in such a hurry, obviously related to the early return of adults to Beijing, I'm afraid you are their real ......, ...... the target, the target! ”

"Isn't there a decree?" The silent anger has long been thrown on the Grand Canal thousands of miles away, "At this moment, only a chilling calm remains."

"No, they're going to cut it first." Yu Yin said softly.

"The people of the East Factory can agree", Shen Mo closed his mouth without finishing speaking, this time the East Factory's movements were extremely fast, and it was strange in itself. If someone really wants to calculate themselves, the East Factory must have already arranged it.

"What they didn't expect was that you'd come back so soon, my lord." Yu Yin changed the topic with interest: "In this way, there is still hope for a win back in this game in the capital, but it's just ...... Hu Dashuai, there must be no mistakes. ”

"Hmm......" Shen Mo nodded slowly.

"My lord, you have to prepare for the worst......" Yu Yin was silent for a moment, and there was a rare flash of fierceness in his eyes.

Silent brows jumped suddenly, although Yu Yin said thoughtlessly, "But he understood what he meant, he was too deeply involved with Hu Zongxian, "There are too many things that are not clear...... Not to mention anything else, just the incident of robbing the military ship and releasing Wang Zhi "is enough to drink a big pot of himself, if the latter really sells himself, I am afraid that Emperor Longqing will not be able to protect himself."

In fact, at the beginning, Yu Yin had suggested that while Hu Zongxian was idle in his hometown in Longchuan, he quietly killed people and killed people, but Shen Mo has never been a ruthless person, and secondly, his Wang Yin, Zheng Ruozeng, Shen Mingchen, Tan Lun, Qi Jiguang, Liu Xian and other military generals are actually inherited from Hu Zongxian.

So he has not been able to make this ruthless heart, and finally succeeded in the general by the enemy who had been calculating for a long time!

One, one "one one", one "

Seeing that the adult was silent, Yu Yin thought that he hadn't realized the seriousness of the problem, and said in a deep voice: "The students were just surprised at first, why did the inner and outer courts cooperate so closely this time, and every step is so compact and efficient?" Now that I think about it, it turns out that we have fallen into the trap of someone else's careful planning. First, he took advantage of the Nanjing incident to keep the adults away from Beijing, and then used the luan fight between the Yanguan and the eunuch to "completely muddy the water in the pool of the capital." When the time and place are favorable, the ironclad evidence that has been prepared long ago will be thrown out...... Today's Emperor Jiang Qing is not the first emperor "I can't understand Hu Zongxian's difficulty, and I will only be angry because he forged the holy decree" At this time, the adult was not in the capital, and no one could speak for him, so the emperor naturally issued an order to take people. ”

As soon as Dongchang got the order, he immediately sent a driving post to Huizhou, and those Tiqi had been waiting there for a long time, and as soon as they received the driving post, they immediately arrested people and entered Beijing...... Otherwise, it would never be so compact. Yu Yin's face sank like water: "And the people have already prepared their back, if the adults don't return to Beijing in advance, they will bring the people to Beijing for trial, if the adults return to Beijing in advance, they will not return to Beijing first, and ask for a confession in the middle of the road, so that even if the adults settle the capital" they can get the confession they want, "when the time comes" who can settle for the adults? He knelt down on one knee in front of Shen Mo and said: "My lord has always been benevolent and righteous, but those who do great things do everything, you are the welfare of tens of millions of people, the rise and fall of the great cause of the southeast, and you must not be emotional" ruined your life's work! ”

A mere confession "Even if it is asked from Hu Zongxian's mouth, it is impossible to bring down Shen Mo" However, the worst thing is that it will make people have infinite associations, since you have conspired to do such a bold thing, then I am afraid that Hu Zongxian has done bad things, you are also indispensable. In one fell swoop, the image of the silence and hard work can be destroyed. At that time, no one will need to rush him" He has no face to stay in Beijing anymore.

"My lord, make a decision!" , Yu Yin pulled the feet of his silent robe and begged bitterly.

Silently, he closed his eyes in pain.

Yu Yin felt that he understood the meaning of silence, and this black cauldron "will carry it yourself!" He raised his head and hugged his fists and said: "Then the subordinates will trespass!" "Don't worry" silently pondered for a long time, waved his hand, opened his eyes and said: "Fake your hand" is just covering your ears and stealing the bell, can you hide it from the historian's pen? He seemed to be a little depressed when he said it: "I have always had a weakness, and after five hundred years, there is a term called left-leaning infantile disease,...... I always thought that political struggle could be less cruel. "The adults highly respect the gentleman's politics of the Northern Song Dynasty", "Yu Yin said softly:" But the times are different" In this era, the lower field does not represent the end of the political sage, and only by completely eliminating the other party can we put an end to future troubles...... Even if adults don't think so, but others do, so those things that you don't want to see, will still happen. ”

"I know," Shen Mo nodded slowly, "I won't tell you, in fact, since I learned the news of Hu Merlin's arrest again, my emotions have moved a lot" On the canal, I haven't had a gaffe for many years. Actually, it's not just for the sake of the thing itself, but they broke my bottom line, like you said, "I found myself in the rules of the game, and others don't care" just tied myself up. As he spoke, a trace of cold self-deprecation hung on the corner of his mouth: "With my kind of Xiao nose and Xiao eyes, I still want others to abide by my rules, it's really beyond my strength." "The world is going down, and people's hearts are like this. Yu Yin had long wanted to admonish Shen Mu, but now that he could realize it himself, of course it was better: "Adults can only follow it first, and then slowly figure ......it out."

"That's it, there's no time to sigh." Silently put on his shoes and went to the ground, stood behind Yu Yin and said, "It's hard for you to run in person, but you can't make this decision unless you have to." He sighed heavily and said, "Otherwise, there will be endless troubles......

"Yes!" Yu Yin nodded solemnly.

"Get up." Shen looked at the figure of the guard outside the window" and said lightly: "After saying these words, don't have a psychological burden, you should know who I really trust." ”

"Yes," Yu Yin stood up, as if he had been injected with infinite vitality.

Whether it is Wang Yin or Shen Mingchen, they all boast of being celebrities" and have an intricate family behind them. is the only one, who originally had nothing, all of them were given by adults" and only himself, who can wholeheartedly consider the adults, would rather go up the sword mountain and go down to the sea of fire for him............

One, one

"Without further ado, you can go at once." After abandoning the shackles imposed on him, Shen Mo regained his decisiveness that he hadn't seen for many years, and took out a non-gold token from his bosom and said: "Take this token" You can command Jinyi Wei and Dada to travel with cars and horses, their power is extremely huge, and they can help you complete all your ideas. ”

After receiving the token that was warm, Yu Yin's heart moved, "This is a sign that adults fully trust themselves" and couldn't help but ask: "Then what about the next step for adults?" "I will enter Beijing immediately, since they don't come with me according to the rules", Shen Mo said lightly: "I won't be polite to them this time, I will go directly to ask for the holy decree" Amnesty Hu Zongxian, but I want to see, who can help me? Yu Yinxin said: "It should have been like this a long time ago" and said to Shen Mo: "Adults, please rest assured, students risk their lives" and let this trouble stop in Shandong! He knows very well that the main drama of this play is not in the capital, but in Shandong, where Hu Zongxian "can crush the opponent's plot, it all depends on his own business!"

"Go ahead," ...... nodded silently, "and watch him go."

After Yu Yin left in the dust, Shen Mo was also surrounded by the guards, and galloped towards the city of Beijing!

Annoying a dormant beast, he shows his minions, no matter who it is, he will definitely regret it......
