Chapter 778: The King James Reversal Case

readx; Huang Zongxi stabbed Xu Xianchun, but Zhu Youzhen not only did not stop it, but gave an order to take down Su Maoxiang, the secretary of the Criminal Department, Cao Sicheng, the left capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and Pan Shiliang, the left Shaoqing of Dali Temple. The pen, fun, and pavilion www.biquge.info prisoners have not finished their trials, but they have taken down the presiding judges, from the civil and military officials to the ordinary people, all of whom were stunned by Zhu You's unexpected actions!

At this time, Xu Xianchun had already made Huang Zongxi stick like a deflated ball, lying on the ground motionless. Huang Zongxi still didn't understand his hatred, and turned around and rushed to Cui Yingyuan. Although Cui Yingyuan knew some martial arts, he had flails on his hands and shackles under his feet, and he couldn't move, so he was stabbed several times by Huang Zongxi, and one of the cones was stabbed to the root of his life, and he immediately fainted with a miserable scream.

At this time, the onlookers reacted, and they all let out a thunderous roar: "Pierce your anger!" Stab them to death!! ”

And Tian Ji and the others, including the eunuch members who have not yet been investigated and are still standing in the queue of hundreds of officials, are trembling, and they can't help but have a great sense of fear for the first time in their lives for the first time in their lives for the people who are usually obedient and seem to be bullied as they want, but now they are erupting like angry waves!

Speaking from the heart, Zhu Youzhen really wanted to change positions with Huang Zongxi, and went to do it himself, stabbing Xu Xianchun and others with hundreds of awls. However, seeing that Huang Zongxi was almost vented, and Xu Xianchun and Cui Yingyuan were also stabbed miserably, he still hurried to stop it. After all, the case has not yet been tried, and the country has laws and regulations, so he cannot stab a prisoner to death without being convicted.

When the situation calmed down, Zhu Youzhen said loudly: "Tian Ji, Tian Ergeng and others are greedy for more than one day, and the number is also extremely amazing. It's not a matter of ability, it's a deliberate cover-up! That's why I want to take them. Su Maoxiang, Cao Sicheng, and Pan Shiliang were immediately dismissed, and the three legal divisions tried their crimes of dereliction of duty and cover-up, and they also had to strictly investigate whether there was collusion with the criminals, as well as corruption and bribery! Who is the current Zuo Shilang of the Criminal Department? ”

An old man in his sixties hurriedly walked out of the queue of officials, and said in a loud voice: "Qiao Yunsheng, the left attendant of the Ministry of Punishment and Punishment!" ”

"Okay, I Jin, you are the secretary of the Criminal Department, and you don't want the three law divisions to be tried, so you don't have to pass the buck to each other. I will entrust you to strictly interrogate Su Maoxiang and others. Zhu Youzhen said sharply, "If the trial is not clear, or if you deliberately cover it up like Su Maoxiang and others, I will never forgive, maybe you will be the next one to be tried!" ”

This Qiao Yunsheng is also a person with an upright personality, and immediately agreed: "If the minister can't judge clearly, he is willing to accept the axe!" ”

Of course, today's main trial is for the five tigers and five biaos, and Su Maoxiang and others can only be handled in a separate case. After escorting these three people down, Zhu Youzhen continued to go deeper: "Tian Ji, Tian Ergeng and others are not only guilty of these crimes. Together with Wei Zhongxian, they committed the crime of rebellion, and when I became the vassal king, they repeatedly assassinated them, and transferred five military camps into the city in an attempt to launch a mutiny. Have you confessed your sins? ”

This time there was another uproar, and Tian Ji and others also vigorously denied it. The reason is also very simple, the previous charges of embezzlement, persecution and other crimes have been confirmed, and they also know that they will not escape the death penalty, but they are still just their own heads. The crime of rebellion is different, it is to be executed by Ling Chi, and the three clans are destroyed, so no one will admit it, and only push Wei Zhongxian, Cui Chengxiu and Wang Chaofeng.

Zhu Youzhen immediately sent someone to confront Wang Chaofeng. Because Wang Chaofeng commanded the rebellious troops to attack the Forbidden City and burned down the Wenhua Palace, the emperor's residence, he was not protected and treated preferentially like Tian Ji and others, and he was tortured to the point that he was not human.

Zhu Youzhen sneered: "Wang Chaofeng, such a big crime, you probably don't want to carry it alone." said, apart from Wei Zhongxian and Cui Chengxiu as the masterminds of the reverse case, who else? ”

Wang Chaofeng really held a kind of psychology of "pulling someone on his back when he was dying", and pulled with his hand: "He, he, and him, they are all!" ”

Tian Ji and others were terrified, and they argued that Wang Chaofeng was indiscriminately biting. Seeing that they still didn't admit it, Zhu Youzhen shouted again: "Summons witnesses Yue Jin and Zeng Rusong!" ”

It turned out that seven days ago, Zhu Youzhen had already sent a message back to Qinwangzhuang, asking Yan Zhengang of the secret procuratorate to escort two criminals who had plotted to assassinate him into Beijing to testify. Yue Jin is the head of the East Factory in Shaanxi, Zeng Rusong is a Jinyi Wei Wupin Qianhu, speaking of which is not a big official, and the ministers of the DPRK and China do not know them; But Tian Ergeng, Cui Yingyuan and others were distracted when they saw them, and they knew that everything was over.

Yan Zhengang had already sorted out the confessions of the two and read them out in public at this time. When the people heard that Wei Zhongxian, Cui Chengxiu, Tian Ergeng and others had conspired to assassinate Zhu Youzhen many times, there was an uproar again; Yue Jin's confession also specifically mentioned that Wei Zhongxian had searched for women who looked like Xizong in various places, and then had sex with his nephew Wei Liangqing, and Yue Jin had also sent two of them. Its intention is naturally to use the baby it gave birth to to pretend to be the son of Xizong, and then usurp the Ming Dynasty.

Now the ministers are gone, just like when the Wanli Dynasty was "fighting for the country", the crowd was surging, and they accused Wei Zhongxian of being rebellious and trying to usurp the throne, and the five tigers and five biao aided the abuse, which is also unpunishable.

At this time, the evidence was ironclad, and the nine people could no longer deny it. Zhu Youzhen announced: "Wei Zhongxian conspired against the great rebellion, and the Hakka family, Cui Chengxiu, Tian Ji, Tian Ergeng and others helped him, and they were all punished for the same crime!" Qiao Yunsheng, what is the crime of rebellion? ”

Qiao Yunsheng hurriedly played: "According to the criminal law of "Da Ming Law", anyone who rebels is said to be in danger of the society; The great rebellion is to plot to destroy the temple, the mountain and the palace. But the conspirators, regardless of their subordinates, were all executed. ”

At this time, Tian Ji and the others were already paralyzed, but Zhu Youzhen shook his head and said: "These people rebelled, and their crimes were not as good as their families, and they confiscated all their family property." If there is another adulterer in his family, it will be handled in a separate case. A few of them don't want to be late, I have read the "Da Ming Law", there is no such thing as Ling Chi in the "Five Punishments", and the death penalty is not too much to behead and hang. There is also a provision in the criminal law that there is a delay in the sentence, which seems to be inconsistent. Besides, the first offender, Wei Zhongxian, and the first servant, Cui Chengxiu, did not kill the corpses, and they were too late, and they were also suspected of taking the lead. The punishment should be beheaded, but before it is executed, it must be carefully examined again, the evil must be clarified, and the wealth will be stolen before it can be executed. ”

Qiao Yunsheng and other ministers didn't expect Zhu Youzhen to "open the net" to the five tigers and five biaos, and they all knelt down and shouted: "Your Majesty is magnificent, and the punishment for such a great evil person is still commuted, he is really a benevolent king." Long live my emperor, long live! ”

In fact, they didn't understand Zhu Youzhen's thoughts. Zhu Youzhen didn't care how these heinous people died, his real purpose was to revise the "Da Ming Law", and today was just the first attempt.

At this time, it was completely dark, but the people still refused to disperse, and they still worshiped Zhu Youzhen on the overpass.

Zhu Youzhen had no choice but to wave his hand around and smiled: "The case has been concluded, I'm hungry, everyone must be hungry, right?" Let's go back to our respective homes, don't let my wife wait in a hurry. ”

The crowd burst into laughter, and Li Laiheng hurriedly took the opportunity to shout: "Your Majesty drive back to the palace!" ”
