Prisoner Ding Min, a native of Fengyang, Anhui Province, speaks Fengyang official dialect very fluently, and the work is still carried out, and he is the head of the Ministry of Official, Residential, and Labor.

Before Liu Daxia was in charge of the Yellow River repair work, it was always this Ding who was responsible for the distribution of materials and labor.

It can be said that this is a good fat shortage, a lot of silver has been passed, and the power is not small. Although the official position is smaller, it is a position of real power.

However, it is such a position of real power, and after Liu Daxia took the throne, he actually found out the case of embezzlement of 8,000 taels of silver.

A confession signed by Ding Min was sent to the East Factory overnight, and there was a little bit of caution on the part of Liu Daxia, who was not sure whether Mu Bin, the commander of the Jinyi Guards who had served under Zhang Ru, was still involved with Zhang Ru, so he found the East Factory as soon as possible.

After reading the confession word for word, Wang Zhi, the governor of Dongchang, sent the messenger with ten taels of silver, and then found Mu Bin.

The content of the confession was very unfavorable to Zhang Ru, one of which buried the secret son among the court officials, greedy for a huge amount of national money, and intended to rebel, which was equivalent to roasting Zhang Ru on the fire.

"What do you think about this?" Wang Zhi touched his smooth chin and looked at the confession on the table with a solemn face.

Mu Bin pushed the confession to Wang Zhi's side: "I'm afraid Wang Dudu has found the wrong person!" You are the governor of the Eastern Investigation Factory, it is best to present this kind of matter directly to Your Majesty, why do you still use it to discuss with the lower officials. ”

Wang Zhi snorted coldly: "Don't pretend in front of our family, everyone is a grasshopper on a rope, don't think that Master Hou has something, you can get better." ”

Mu Bin said indifferently: "It's true that I used to be Zhang Wenxuan's subordinate, but now I am the commander of the Jinyi Weidu of Zhengsanpin, and he Zhang Wenxuan is just a grass man." Wang Zhi, although your Dongchang is always pressed on my Jinyi Wei's head, believe it or not, your actions today, as long as I participate in your copy in front of Your Majesty, it is enough for you to not be able to eat and walk around! ”

"What do you mean!" Wang Zhi stood up angrily and pointed to Mu Bin's nose.

Mu Bin slapped his fingers away: "Don't point your pee-smelling fingers at Ben General's nose, I don't know what to do today." Three days, if you don't report to Your Majesty within three days, you will definitely be impeached for harboring the thief Zhang Wenxuan, intending to subvert the Ming Dynasty! ”

Wang Zhi was so angry that he wanted to slap Mu Bin twice on the spot, thinking that Mu Bin was also Zhang Ru's person, even if he wasn't, he would take care of a little incense. Unexpectedly, Mu Bin not only didn't help, but also planned to act for the tiger.

If he had known that Jinyiwei would touch a gray nose, he would not have gone this way if he was killed.

Wang Zhi, who was furious, grabbed the confession on the table and brushed his sleeves away, leaving Mu Bin who was smiling in place.

Back in Dongchang, Wang Zhi immediately asked his henchmen to copy the contents of the confession and send it to Fuzhou, and then on the third day, he stepped on the point to present the confession to Emperor Zhu Youjiao.

"Your Majesty, this statement was submitted by the right deputy governor of the Yellow River, Liu Daxia, the abbot of Hongzhi in the sixth year, and the prisoner Ding Chengzhong is now being detained in Dongchang Zhao Prison. The contents of the confession are not detailed, and the ministers do not know the authenticity, so they ask His Majesty to call the shots. Wang Zhi said very fairly.

On such an occasion, it was really difficult for him to help Zhang Ru speak.

Not to mention that Zhang Ru is just a small common man now, even if Zhang Ru is still the Dingbian Marquis of the imperial court, he can't speak for Zhang Ru on this occasion.

This is not a major crime of murder and overstepping goods, but a major crime of rebellion and rebellion, which is very likely to exterminate the nine clans. No matter who you are, your background is not tough enough, and if you want to mix with such troubled waters, you can only find death.

After reading the confession, Zhu Youjiao's face showed obvious anger, and the old man Li, who was eating lychees specially paid tribute to the south, coughed dryly: "Quit arrogance, guard against rashness, guard against anger!" ”

Zhu Youzhu didn't listen to Lao Litou's advice, and slammed it on the table: "It's just too deceitful, Wang Zhi, you give me an investigation, it's not bad, you don't have to come back!" ”

Wang Zhi opened his mouth, unable to refute it at all.

Zhu Youzhu said again: "Send someone to find Zhang Wenxuan immediately, I want an explanation from him!" ”

Lao Li Tou came to his senses after hearing Zhang Wenxuan's three words, and he didn't care whether the emperor was still angry, he stood up and directly picked up the confession on the table with his sugar-stained hand and read it.

"Tsk, bullshit doesn't work, it's bullshit!" After reading it, Lao Li Tou made the above comments.

Wang Zhiru was rescued, and immediately looked at Zhu Youjiao.

Sure enough, Zhu Youzhang, who was very fierce to his subordinates, was still willing to listen to Lao Litou's explanation, he turned around and asked in a rough voice: "Senior, why do you say bullshit?" ”

Lao Li Tou didn't care whether you were the emperor or not, and pointed to the confession and said: "You can see it yourself, it says that the kid named Ding Min is a Jinshi in the seventeenth year of Chenghua, and he didn't know Zhang Wenxuan at that time." Then he said that Zhang Wenxuan coerced and lured in the first year of Hongzhi, which made Ding Min a secret son of Jinyiwei.

At first glance, it seems that there is nothing wrong, but when you think about it, it is full of loopholes.

With the old man's understanding of Zhang Wenxuan, he has always disdained to do coercion and temptation, and if he is in the sky, he will make the stakes clear, if you want to, you will be willing, and if you are unwilling, he will not force it.

Moreover, Zhang Wenxuan does not like literati quickly, but is more pure to martial arts.

The kid also told the old man that literati can kill people with a pen, but I, Zhang Wenxuan, don't want to be a person who kills people with a pen, and would rather be Qiu Ba, who has been spurned by others all his life.

Judging from this, it is completely impossible for Zhang Wenxuan to let a literati who can't pick up his shoulders and can't lift his hand be the shadow of Jinyiwei.

Look at the following, in the winter of the second year of Hongzhi, Zhang Wenxuan skillfully won 50,000 taels of silver.

Didn't Your Majesty think about it, this Ding Chengzhong was just a small official of the Ministry of Industry in the second year of Hongzhi, he was not even an official, where could he get 50,000 taels of silver?

If the old man remembers well, it seems that it was the most difficult time for the imperial court at that time, Zhang Wenxuan was running around all day, on the one hand, he had to deal with the White Lotus Sect, and on the other hand, he had to deal with the Tatars, and he had no time to return to Beijing at all.

Your Majesty looked at the following again, the matter of the river work, Ding Chengzhong was greedy for eight thousand taels of silver from the Mo Imperial Court, if the eight thousand taels of silver were really what Zhang Wenxuan wanted, then the matter would be strange.

The confession is clearly written, Zhang Wenxuan asked Ding Chengzhong for money a total of five times, and the first four times were all tens of thousands of taels, why only eight thousand taels this time?

Not to mention anything else, these eight thousand taels are fortunately not dead for people to find out, or are they greedy from the river workers' silver, doesn't Your Majesty think it's strange? ”

The shrewd old Li Tou did not use his identity to intercede with the emperor, but analyzed it little by little according to the confession, trying to convince the emperor.

Zhu Youzhu is not a faint gentleman, but after seeing the confession, he was made out of proportion by the big words of rebellion on the confession for a while.

This is a confession that can't stand up to any scrutiny, and it stands to reason that Liu Daxia shouldn't even be able to see this. But he saw it, but he still did not hesitate to send the confession to the East Factory, what was the purpose?

"Wang Zhi, investigate this matter thoroughly." Zhu Youzhu thought about it and commanded.

"The ministers obey." Wang Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, and said quietly on the surface.

Things were arranged, Zhu Youzhu looked at Lao Li Tou gratefully and said, "If it weren't for the reminder of my predecessors, I'm afraid I would have killed a good person by mistake." ”

Lao Li Tou smiled and said: "Even if Zhang Wenxuan rebels, Your Majesty is really ruthless enough to kill him?" ”

Zhu Youzhu was stunned, lowered his head and groaned.

He really didn't think about this question carefully, and subconsciously always thought that the person who rebelled deserved to die. But this person is none other than Zhang Ru, who has saved his life several times, if he really gets to that point, can I really kill him ruthlessly?

The rationality of the supremacy of imperial power and the sensibility of the supremacy of brothers clashed in their hearts, and after a few rounds, the brothers were defeated.

He is the emperor and the supreme ruler of the Ming Dynasty, and one of his decisions is related to the life and death of tens of thousands of people, hundreds of thousands of people, or even millions of people.

"Yes!" Zhu Youzhu gave his answer with a firm gaze.

Lao Li Tou laughed: "Hmph! If Wen Xuan heard his brother say this, would he regret kneeling in front of the old man and begging the old man to enter Beijing for His Majesty's treatment. Now, three years have passed, and it is inconvenient for the old man to stay longer, please ask Your Majesty to let the grass people leave for the sake of the grass people to continue your Majesty's life! ”

Zhu Youzhu looked embarrassed, and asked after a long silence: "I am not good to my predecessors?" ”

"Good!"

"I don't have food and clothing for my predecessors?" Zhu Youzhu asked again.

"Finesse and food."

"Have I ever restricted the freedom of my predecessors?" Zhu Youzhu asked again.

"Unimpeded."

"Then why did the senior leave?" He was deliberately pretending to be stupid, he wouldn't fail to understand, it was the answer just now that made Lao Li Tou have an idea.

People are like this, when they know that they are going to die, they suddenly find that they can not die, and they will hold on to the life-saving straw. If it was Zhu Youzhu three years ago, he would definitely be able to face all this calmly. But now Zhu Youzhu is no longer able to be as calm as he was at the beginning.

So no matter what kind of reason Lao Li Tou gave, he would not let Lao Li Tou leave.

Lao Li Tou smiled miserably: "Before entering Beijing, the old man was prepared not to leave Beijing. If it weren't for Zhang Wenxuan's kid kneeling in front of me and begging bitterly, the old man would never have entered Beijing. Since Your Majesty must ask, the old man can give Your Majesty an answer, this palace is too cold, and the old man can't stand it. ”

"I won't let the divine doctor go, otherwise how will the people of the world look at me, even the life-saving benefactor will be driven out of the palace, and my predecessors will fall into an unkind and unrighteous situation." Zhu Youzhu threw out a high-sounding reason.

Lao Li snorted coldly: "Good old man understands." ”

With that, he turned and left.

The goodwill accumulated in the past three years disappeared at this moment, and all that Lao Li had in his heart was his contempt for this emperor.

Now he finally knew why Zhang Ru fell from the sky to the ground, and he fell so badly. And he felt that the fraud case of 8,000 taels of silver was not over.
