Chen Dong's smile, who was originally bowing down and bowing and with a humble smile on his face, froze instantly, and as Zhu Qizhen's words fell, Chen Dong's face had changed from a healthy ruddy to a dead white. 1――

"Why don't you speak, isn't it that Chen Qing didn't hear my question?" Zhu Qizhen was still sitting according to the case, the smile on his face was still the same, but the tone became more and more cold, and the civil officials who originally jumped out to help were all stunned at this moment, and all their eyes were focused on Chen Dong, the right attendant of the Ministry of Officials, who was originally the backbone of the anti-war representatives.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty, your Majesty is terrified, I don't know why Your Majesty said so." Chen Dong, who was already in chaos, bowed to the ground, did not dare to raise his head at all, and said timidly, and his originally thick and lofty voice was lowered a lot. "On the evening of the first two days, the person who went to Weichen's mansion was a trader, he said that he had good Korean ginseng in his hand, and Wechen's housekeeper was also a person who knew the goods, so he specially told Wechen, and Wechen was out with friends that day, and he returned late, so the North Korean trader entered Wechen's mansion at night."

"Really? Hehe, it's a pity, the Korean merchant in your mouth, according to Jinyiwei's detection, is the left counselor of the Korean Kingdom, Li Dongzheng, who entered our Ming Dynasty on the Jiaodong Peninsula on May 17, and has been a teacher since the 23rd, and then has searched for several officials, and finally, entered your mansion on the eve of yesterday, and after that, just yesterday ......" Zhu Qizhen's tone was still so unhurried and methodical, as if telling an inconspicuous little story.

In addition to Chen Dong, there were several officials who had also secretly contacted the North Korean secret envoy before, and their faces were already terribly pale.

In the end, Zhu Qizhen turned his face and gestured to Sun Jizong's head and said: "Sun Lao Aiqing told me that these loyal ministers who were loyal to the Ming Empire in front of me all accepted those items given by the Korean secret envoy. ”

"The minister obeys the order...... Sun Jizong came out of class, first bowed respectfully to Zhu Qizhen, then turned his head, and showed a strange smile at Chen Dong and the ministers who had changed color, and then slowly took out a fold of books from his sleeve.

“…… At three o'clock on the night of May 27, he entered the mansion of Chang Heping, the young secretary of Honglu Temple, to discuss the affairs of my Ming Dynasty and Korea, and when Li Dongzheng left the house, he left a pair of jade walls, a pair of gold-inlaid jade lions, and a pair of Korean ginseng, with a total estimated value of more than 27,800 ...... of silver."

Hearing this, a middle-aged minister who was originally standing had weak legs and knelt down on top of the hall, but Zhu Qizhen didn't even raise his eyelids, holding the teacup and tasting the tea carefully.

“…… At the same time on May 29, Zhang Zhong entered the mansion of the Ministry of Rites...... On the night of May 30, the mansion of Chen Dong, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, discussed the affairs of my Ming Dynasty and North Korea, and Lord Chen first excused himself, and then, Li Dongzheng took out a silver ticket of 20,000 taels of silver, and also presented three pairs of superb Korean ginseng, as well as a number of treasures...... "Sun Jizong's voice was very ordinary, but the words he said made the ministers of civil and military affairs present change slightly.

Everyone knows that every minister must have some **, of course, for Daming, the ministers' habit of accepting bribes can be said to be accustomed and dismissive.

In addition, there are many vassal states in the Ming Dynasty, and when the envoys of those vassal states come to the Ming Dynasty to pay tribute or do errands, they will always give some silver to the relevant ministers, hoping that these ministers can say some good things for their vassal countries, and earn a little more rewards or other benefits from the Ming Dynasty.

And today, looking at Zhu Qizhen's appearance, it is clear that he doesn't want to let it go easily, but after thinking about it, these ministers can't help but curse Chen Dong and the others angrily, mud ma, at this time, everyone knows that Zhu Qizhen, the great tomorrow who will be revenged, looks at the Korean kingdom unpleasantly, and the murderous look above the court meeting not long ago, as if he will not give up until the lord of the Korean kingdom is cramped and peeled. …,

I don't want to think about what happened to the spur, and now, the son of heaven who is idle in the capital and has nothing to do is easy to seize the opportunity and want to pick up the North Korea fiercely. At this time, you actually dare to accept bribes from the secret envoys of the Korean Kingdom and speak for them, isn't this tantamount to adding to the blockage of today? Yes, you should be out of luck.

All of them were pale and bowed to the ground, and these people happened to be the ones who were the most commotionous in the civilian clique that had just clamored for peace, not war, friendship and not swords.

Now that they have all slipped out, the rest of the guys have shrunk faster than the yellow eel burrowing, where do they dare to jump out and talk nonsense about crooked countrymen as dead admonitions.

"Sun Lao Aiqing, is this news true?" After Sun Jizong finished reading, Zhu Qizhen was very slow and reasonable.

Sun Jizong turned his head and saluted respectfully towards Zhu Qizhen: "Your Majesty, rest assured, these things have been verified by Weichen one by one, and I dare to guarantee it with a head, there is absolutely no omission in these news, and there is absolutely no trace of falsehood." ”

"What about you, if you think it's wrong, you can stand up and tell Master Sun, in fact, you didn't accept so many bribes, or rather, you didn't accept them at all." The corners of Zhu Qizhen's mouth rose briskly, and his gaze swept over the officials who were kneeling on the ground, his gaze was as cold as a knife.

"Why, doesn't anyone want to talk? Or rather, you did. Zhu Qizhen stood up and glanced at some of the ministers who were standing in the middle of the class and wanted to stop talking, and after seeing his gaze, all the ministers who originally wanted to jump out to intercede for these guys couldn't help but feel a pang in their hearts and retracted their thoughts.

"You are my ministers of the Ming Dynasty, and what you take is the money given by the court of my Ming Dynasty, and your wives and children, old and young, are also the people of the Ming Dynasty. How can you do that? Don't you know that the DPRK colluded with the Liaodong tribes and infringed on the people of Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty? ”

"How many people have been ruined by this, their wives have been separated, and even they have been left behind. They are the people and people of my Ming Dynasty, so I must avenge them and let them know that the Ming Dynasty is their motherland, and it is the backing of every Ming people, and those who dare to bully them will be overwhelmed by the angry artillery fire of my Ming Dynasty. ”

"But what did you do? Do you know that those silver taels or treasures, maybe those foreign races plundered from the hands of my Ming people, but you are well deserved, and then you dare to talk about a great country and the wind of benevolence and righteousness in front of me. ”

Zhu Qizhen's words were sentence after sentence, like a thunderbolt exploding in the hall, deafening and confused. All of them couldn't help but subconsciously hang their heads, as if they were afraid that the wrath of the Son of Heaven would come to them if they were not careful.

"I don't calculate for the benefit of my Ming Dynasty, but just because the people of the enemy country gave you money, I want to give them my life. You are treason by doing so! Zhu Qizhen stretched out his finger and pointed straight at the ministers who were running on the ground, and in a word, nailed them to the heavy pillar of shame.
