Chapter 813: The Sword Unsheathed (I)

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

The torture case in Shandong has greatly touched the sensitive nerves of the officials in Beijing, and this kind of unscrupulous atrocity will of course be regarded as a great challenge to the politics of the above-mentioned officials...... As the saying goes, 'a gentleman talks but doesn't do anything', the characteristic of civil politics is that it is a kind of political struggle that does not destroy the bottom line of the opponent's body and personality, which is a beautiful expectation in the hearts of all civil officials, so they hate spy politics, hate the court staff, and have absolutely no praise for Emperor Jiajing, who does not treat ministers as people, and Yan Ge Lao, who has no bottom line.

Therefore, taking advantage of the 'three returns' proposed by Xu Ge Lao after he came to power, the civil officials began to vigorously advocate the so-called 'gentleman's politics', sparing no effort to defend their own rules of the game, even to the point of overkill...... Its striking ambition is that as the vanguard of civil officials, the Kedao Yanguan, in order to defend the so-called 'morality and faith', with the fearless mad dog jīng god, monopolizes all kinds of disobedience.

However, the premise of civil politics and the strength of the official is that all parties abide by the rules of the game, especially the powerful side, and cannot use all kinds of violence to force others to submit because they cannot afford to lose...... Because once someone does this, the so-called gentleman's politics will lose its premise and foundation, and will be reduced to extravagant fantasy and empty talk.

And Hu Zongxian's torture and confession to death is an evil case that extremely challenges the bottom line of civil officials, just because the Metropolitan Procuratorate is also involved, and plays a disgraceful role, because when the matter is not decided, especially before the cabinet does not express its position, the ministers and officials are deliberately low-key, and their subordinates are not allowed to explain and discuss it, let alone allow them to say anything.

This is why more than 10 days after the incident, the people and the government were boiling over, but in the official documents and recitals, there was little mention of the internal cause of the incident......

The turning point appeared under Yongding Mén, when Hu Zongxian's coffin was opened, and Baiguan really saw his horrific body for the first time. Rumors and documents describe it 10,000 times, which is far less than seeing it once, and the impact is greater. For those young officials who still believe in truth and justice, it is unbearable, and if justice is not sought for the deceased and the murderer is sent to the eighteen layers of hell, what justice can be talked about?

And for officials who have been in the sea for a long time and are nervously numb, Hu Zongxian's miserable fate is enough to make them feel sympathetic to the death of rabbits and foxes, and the sadness of things...... It's just that due to the pressure from the top, it is inconvenient to publicly cry out for Hu Zongxian.

If before last night, the 100 officials of the DPRK and the Central Committee, especially the senior officials of the ministry, were still mainly on the sidelines and restrained, and only a few stunned young people were ready to write a letter demanding a strict investigation of this case, then the 'suicide case' that occurred in the prison of the Criminal Department last night completely strengthened the position of the 100 officials...... If we do not unite and resolutely resist the lawless atrocities, which have repeatedly appeared and trampled the rules into mud, then in the future, when someone encounters insurmountable difficulties, they will inevitably unceremoniously use violence to eliminate the trouble by destroying the opponent's body. As a result, the political atmosphere of the Ming Dynasty will inevitably deteriorate rapidly, and the princes of the DPRK and the Central Committee may be killed by their opponents one day......

The day after the criminal department prison case was discovered, Xu Wei, the priest of the Guozi Prison, wrote an essay in his real name, and his disciples posted it on the wallpaper of the 18th Yamén in Xiǎo Lane, Jingcheng Street, denouncing the unscrupulous atrocities of some careerists, calling on all officials to jointly resist the violence of power, and to give Hu Zongxian justice, the truth to the people, and even more to the Ming Dynasty

As soon as this article came out, it immediately aroused a strong reaction, and officials from various ministries wrote to second, demanding a thorough investigation of the case, finding out the culprit, and never appeasing the raising of Jiān, and only using a few minions to prevaricate public opinion. For a while, the crowd was in turmoil, and the song flew like snowflakes to the General Administration, and then to the Cabinet...... In just one day, more than 100 pieces of music were piled up on the desks of Li Chūnfang and Zhang Juzheng.

Looking at the sharp words and heart-wrenching scripts, Li Chūnfang and Zhang Juzheng regretted it, they knew this earlier, so they rushed to take leave before Chen Yiqin, even if they closed their doors at home and waited for death, it was much stronger than sitting on pins and needles in the current cabinet...... Now that there are only the two of them left in the cabinet, it is impossible to take leave, so they can only endure the torture of the jīng god here and read them one by one.

"All of them are evil" After dozens of votes, Zhang Juzheng finally couldn't help but erupt, he threw the book in his hand on the table, and said angrily: "Hu Zongxian, who is corrupt and bribe-taking, treats Hu Zongxian as his own father, and grabs the sky and the earth, like a funeral, and says that no one is fanning the flames behind his back, and three-year-old children don't believe it."

Li Chūnfang didn't have his kind of anger, looked down at those Tiao Chen, and instead muttered: "Public opinion is turbulent, and if you don't investigate it strictly, it's not enough for the people to be angry." ”

"Are you dizzy" Zhang Juzheng glared and said: "Seek death by yourself, don't pull others"

"Quit anger and quit ......anger," Li Chūn Fang said, "I'm just talking about things, and the hundred officials are on fire, and doing it with them at this time is tantamount to getting on fire." ”

"Hmm......" Zhang Juzheng suppressed his anger and said: "What you said also has some truth, but how to investigate the law, who to send to investigate, and to what extent?" Don't set yourself on fire, you can't regret it. ”

"It's not something we can decide," Li Chūn Fang said, "It's better to ask Yuan Weng to show me immediately, and I will have to send the celebrant to the celebrant in the afternoon, and I will bother Taiyue to take a trip......"

"Hmm......" Zhang Juzheng looked at Li Chūn Fang and said angrily in his heart: "Don't you know that I just ate the closed mén soup?" I just wanted to subconsciously refuse, but after thinking about it, this is not a good opportunity to see Xu Jie, so I nodded and said, "Okay." So he got up and said, "I'll go now." ”

"That's very good." Li Chūnfang smiled and said, "Say hello to Yuan Weng on my behalf." ”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After half an hour, Zhang Juzheng had returned to the place where he was rejected yesterday.

"I'm sorry for the old lady, the old lady still doesn't allow my family to see guests today." Then he said in his heart, this one who recovered quickly enough thought that he would have to come back in two days.

"This time there is an urgent official business to face Chen Ge Lao," Zhang Juzheng said: "Please be sure to say a word, so as not to delay the big event." ”

Hearing him say this, how dare the mén son take Qiao, hurry up, invite him to drink tea in the mén room and wait, and hurry in to report.

After a while, he came out with an envelope and presented it to Zhang Juzheng with both hands: "This is from my grandfather to the elder pavilion." ”

Zhang Ju took it expressionlessly, and when he unfolded the letter paper, he saw that there were only two words on it, 'Hai Rui', which was indeed Xu Jie's handwriting.

Obviously, Xu Jie has already made a decision, Zhang Juzheng has to admit that this is an extremely sophisticated hand, after the 'first sparse in the world', Hai Rui's reputation is unparalleled in the world. Among the people, he has been incarnated as the same Qingtian master as Bao Zheng, and was worshiped by the people's ancestral hall. Even in officialdom, many people regard him as a madman and a fool, but they all have to admit that if Daming still has a conscience, it is Hai Jui's heart, and if there is justice in the world, it is Hai Jui. Let such an embodiment of justice and conscience be in charge of hearing this case, and naturally no one can say a 'no'.

But Hai Rui is really a lonely man? Zhang Juzheng disagreed, although his "Book with Shen Humble Words" is known all over the world, but the unclear relationship between the two is a letter, a few lines of text can be cleared? As long as Hai Rui shot too heavily when he decided the case...... It's almost a certainty for that two-pole...... can let the official participate in his ulterior motives, and then pull Shen Mo in to criticize and fight together. In this way, the quality of this case will change immediately, and public opinion will no longer be one-sided, and it is possible that it will be like other earth-shattering cases, and it will be a big event......

seems to use an indisputable candidate, but it can make Shen Mo provoke a sāo, and he can no longer blindly play the bitter role sè to win the sympathy of the public. Xu Jie's abacus is really jīng. But Zhang Juzheng was not only impressed, but also hurt Xu Jie's rejects himself again...... Could it be that the teacher has other plans? But you want me to fend for myself? Rao is determined by his heart, but on the way back, he still can't help but start to think about it.

When he returned to the cabinet, he showed the note to Li Chūnfang, who also said that it was good, so he drew up a ticket and immediately sent it to the celebrant and supervisor...... It's not that the two of them don't want to send it directly to Longqing, it's really that the emperor hasn't seen his ministers recently, and there are already a lot of things to say outside the palace. However, both of them know the truth through their own channels, but now they are unable to protect themselves, who still has the heart to refute the rumors for the emperor?

In less than two hours, the celebrant sent back the batch of red, which shows that although Longqing is not face-to-face, he still pays close attention to this matter.

"The emperor has approved it." Li Chūnfang glanced at it and said, "Let that Hai Rui come tomorrow, and we will talk to him." ”

"Hmm." Zhang Juzheng nodded.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"The emperor is right." Shen Mingchen said softly: "Yang Yushu, the secretary of Dali Temple, is the presiding judge, and Shaoqing Hairui is jurying, because the Criminal Department and the Metropolitan Procuratorate have to avoid suspicion, this is already the highest standard." ”

"This is deliberate, the temple great bodhisattva xiǎo, anyone can chā mouth, but our people want to avoid suspicion, this time Yang Bo wants to stay in the water and reap the benefits, it is impossible." Wang Yin said lightly.

Shen Mo was still struggling to drink yào, and it took a lot of effort to drink half of it, and he took the opportunity to rest and said: "Don't be polite to him, this old man is constantly robbing while the fire is burning, how can he be cheaper." ”

"Huh." Wang Yin felt that the silence was a little different, as if all the rules and regulations had been broken, but at least it was a good thing now, so he didn't talk nonsense, and said, "Do you need to bring a message to Lord Hai?" ”

"It's useless, he just does what he does." Shen Mo shook his head and smiled bitterly: "But they thought about Haigang Peak simply, and this time I'm afraid they will miscalculate." ”

"Since the adults have confidence in him, let's take a look first." Wang Yin said softly: "The student thinks that Xu Jie's use of Hai Rui is still transmitting a signal. ”

"Yes." Shen Mo nodded and said, "He's telling us that, next, let's play according to the original set." ”

"It's shameless." Shen Mingchen almost jumped up and said: "Oh, they can use crooked tricks if they want to, and they won't let others use them if they don't want to use them, I really think that xiǎo children have a family wine."

"Don't move," Wang Yin said lightly, "Adults have their own plans." ”

These words made Shen Mo's expression stagnant, he could hear that Wang Yin was complaining, paused, and sighed lightly: "Sir, don't think too much, I have always been honest with you." It's just that there are some idle chess, which have been lost many years before you came, because they have not been useful, so they have not been mentioned. ”

Seeing that Shen Mo did not hide it at all, Wang Yin was embarrassed and said, "My lord misunderstood. This time, the plan from beginning to end was all written by adults, and the students watched from the wall, already dizzy and hearty. It's just that this game has reached the middle game, and I don't know your hole cards, and my heart is really itchy. ”

"I told you it was." He smiled silently.

"I don't want it, I like to guess it myself." Wang Yin shook his head and smiled: "It's boring to say it." ”

"Looks like you've guessed it." Shen Mo looked at him and said suddenly.

"Hehe, it was also the adults who gave a hint," Wang Yin said with a smile: "Otherwise, I would never have guessed." ”

"What kind of dumb riddle are you playing?" Shen Mingchen was confused and said, "Can't you make it clear?" ”

"Thou shalt not speak, thou shalt not speak." The two shook their heads together.

"At the critical moment, I can see that the distance is coming, if the monarch is here, he must have told me......" Shen Mingchen said, but his voice became deeper and lower: "Won't he come back?" Yu Yin has not returned since he left last month, but a letter was sent to his best friend Shen Mingchen, saying that he had committed evil and had no shame to face his former friend again, so he resigned from the west seat of the Shen Mansion and traveled all over the world, so he did not worry.

If it weren't for Shen Mingchen's understanding of Yu Yin, knowing that the letter was indeed written by him, and that he was not coerced when he wrote it, he would have thought that he was silently killing people...... But this doesn't mean that he believes Yu Yin's words, I'm afraid that there are still some ulterior secrets hidden in it. It's just that this kind of thing is really unquestionable.

"Don't worry, he's fine," seeing his worried look, he couldn't bear to be silent, and said softly: "There will definitely be a day when we meet in the future." ”

"Hmm." Shen Mingchen nodded, and smiled reluctantly-

Segmentation –

When I came to my father-in-law's house today, I could only come out of the Internet café to post a chapter, and I would be fine going back tomorrow. What's more, Xu Wei's article, because he has no reference materials at hand, can only wait until he goes back and then borrow someone's mouth to say it, in short, it won't be like this.
