Chapter 196: A Major Breakthrough

Zhao Wenhua threatened to impeach, and others might be afraid, Li Tianzhong had been the imperial history, he didn't care, and sneered: "Lord Zhao, do you still want to reverse black and white?" The Ying and Wu families are just southeastern gentry, do they have the courage to collude with the Japanese and assassinate the dignified feudal officials? Isn't there someone behind the scenes who secretly instigated and wanted to destroy the pillars of the court? ”

Li Tianzhong said that he was righteous and strict, even an idiot understood it, and what he was pointing at was Yan Song and Yan Ge Lao, saying that they were in harmony, and the next step was to rebel and go straight to death.

is worthy of being a character that Li Mo values, and as soon as he made a move, he was so ruthless that he forced Zhao Wenhua into a corner.

"Master Li!" Zhao Wenhua gritted his back molars and said angrily: "Do you have the slightest evidence, and you dare to talk nonsense just based on speculation?" ”

"It's not easy to ask for proof!" Li Tianzhong stared at Zheng Yongchang and said with a smile: "As long as the criminal official is recruited from the truth, the imperial court may be able to open the net, otherwise the criminal official will die." ”

"Don't listen to him!" Zhao Wenhua didn't care about his image, and scolded angrily: "Zheng Yongchang, you can think about it, how serious the consequences will be if you climb indiscriminately, don't affect your family because of your own stinky mouth!" ”

The threat of Hongguoguo, Zhao Wenhua is also hard enough, Li Tianpet was so angry that his lips turned blue, he turned his head suddenly, stared at Tang Shunzhi next to him, and the three Qincha didn't say a word to him.

"Lord Tang, as a noble Hanlin nobleman, you have enjoyed the world's fame for 30 years, everyone admires you, and in the face of traitors, please also ask your lord to uphold justice."

There is no doubt that Tang Shunzhi was forced to make a statement, and Tang Shunzhi smiled slightly.

"Master Li, Tang thinks it's better to listen to the opinion of the bitter master, I don't know what you think?"

Saying that, Tang Shunzhi looked at Tang Yi with hope, and felt the teacher's concerned eyes, Tang Yi is so angry, why did you take a good look at the excitement and pull me into the water?

He was dissatisfied. However, Zhao Wenhua agreed with the proposal, and hurriedly asked: "Xingzhixian nephew, you are extremely intelligent, you must have some high opinions, say it and listen to it." ”

Tang Yi had to get up and salute. He pondered slightly, and then said: "My lords, you can see that you have your own opinions in your hearts, according to the meaning of your later life, you might as well interrogate separately and look for evidence separately, as long as the evidence is ironclad, it is naturally convincing." ”

After listening to Tang Yi's suggestion. Zhao Wenhua and Li Tianzhong's eyes lit up, this method is really good, otherwise they will eat dog in the lobby, and it will not sound good to spread out, and it will delay the process of trial even more.

"Master Li, what do you think?"

"Okay, that's it, but I'll interrogate the prisoners. Two, four, six are yours! ”

"Done!"

The two of them flicked their sleeves like cockfights. Withdrawing from both sides, only one Tang Shunzhi remained, and he reluctantly knocked on the shocking wood and asked people to take Zheng Yongchang down.

When everyone left, Tang Shunzhi looked at his apprentice and smiled meaningfully. "You're getting worse and worse."

"Master, you can't wronged a good person, the two adults have a dispute, and I will help them solve it. Don't you see they're getting better? ”

"Okay? I think it's adding fuel to the fire. Tang Shunzhi lowered his voice and said, "These two are not fuel-efficient lamps. The same tough, the same backers, the devil knows what they can find out. ”

Tang Yi showed a big smile and said proudly: "Master, no matter what they find out, the southeast realm will always be cleaner!" ”

Tang Shunzhi's pupils constricted in an instant, yes, as long as the two sides make more trouble, the more crimes will be exposed, whether it is the magistrate represented by Zheng He, or the two families of Ying Wu, they will only clap their hands and applaud.

……

The master and apprentice made up their minds to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and it turned out to be a good show.

First of all, Zhao Wenhua, his spearhead was aimed at Zheng He and the others, and he sent people to search for evidence of the two people's crimes. Some people want to ask, Zheng Yongchang and He Maocai are members of the Yan Party, if they desperately bite Yan Song's father and son, won't they threaten the safety of the Yan Party? Zhao Wenhua showed that the car and horse artillery would rectify them, so he was not afraid of the dog jumping off the wall in a hurry?

In fact, when he came, Yan Song had already confessed, and a little bribery could not shake his status, and it could be inferred that the emperor was far away, at best, he was not properly employed, and at most he was scolded by Jiajing. For Yan Dang, the top priority is to break the tail as soon as possible to survive, not to implicate too much, and it is best to let Zheng He and the others bear all the charges.

I thought it was good, but with Li Tianpet beside me, how difficult it was to do it.

But Zhao Wenhua still has confidence, following Yan Song and Yan Shifan for so many years, he has learned a lot of his ability to harm people, even Qing officials can't escape from his palm, not to mention Zheng Yongchang and He Maocai, who do all kinds of evil!

Soon, Zhao Wenhua searched out a large amount of incriminating evidence from the governor's and envoy's yamen, as well as their mansions, and gathered them together, and there were a lot of them.

The master sorted them all out in different categories, and then reported the same to Zhao Wenhua.

"My lord, in the twenty-seventh year of Jiajing, Zheng Yongchang occupied 300 acres of mulberry field, a landlord surnamed Tian, and forcibly accepted a pair of daughters of the other party as concubines......"

When Zhao Wenhua heard this, he pursed his lips and scolded: "I'm quite good at playing, keep looking, this is nothing." ”

"Yes...... There is another one, that is, last year, 150,000 stone military rations were sent from Jiangxi, Zheng He joined forces and exchanged them for old grain from the treasury, and then sold the brand-new military rations, making a profit of 100,000 taels, and the two split it in half. ”

Zhao Wenhua still said disdainfully: "Chen sesame rotten grain, is there still an official in the world who is not greedy?" ”

In short, the master said one thing, but Zhao Wenhua denied one item, and the master's clothes were soaked with sweat on a hot day, and in the end, he turned out another thing.

"Lord Qijuan, this was done in the thirtieth year of Jiajing, or Zheng He and the others, they sold a batch of raw silk and got 70,000 taels of silver......

After the master finished reading, he habitually read the next item, and there were so many things like cow hair, there was nothing unusual.

But Zhao Wenhua suddenly got up, jumped up suddenly, snatched the inventory from his master's hand, looked at it again and again, and shouted: "Find out all the correspondence during this time!" ”

"Yes!"

The master nodded hurriedly, rummaged through the vast number of documents, and finally found a few letters and sent them to Zhao Wenhua until the third watch in the middle of the night.

"Add a few candles."

The attendants hurriedly came over with more than a dozen candlesticks, illuminating the room as bright as day, Zhao Wenhua took the letter, looked at it carefully, and didn't dare to miss a word. After watching it three times, Zhao Wenhua slapped excitedly!

"Hahaha, I'm such a genius, why should Zheng die!"

……

What made Zhao Wenhua happy like this?

It turned out that in the thirtieth year of Jiajing, Zheng Yongchang and He Maocai were greedy for a large number of raw silk, and this batch of raw silk was originally to be transported to the Weaving Bureau and woven into silk for the palace. These two guys were so bold that they secretly detained the raw silk and sold it for a profit under the pretext that the transport ship was sunk in a storm.

Jiajing is very tolerant of greedy ink, but there is one thing he can't bear, and that is greedy for his money!

Zheng He and the others dared to attack the silk supplied to the palace, poked Jiajing's lung tube, and violated the rules of heaven, which was simply heinous, and they were not relieved of their anger.

And only this kind of corrupt officials and corrupt officials who have no monarch and a madman will collude with the Japanese bandits, and as for betraying information and framing Zhongliang, it is no problem.

After Zhao Wenhua carefully scrutinized, he suddenly thought, at that time, Zheng Yongchang and He Maocai said that the ship encountered wind and waves, did they have already mingled with the Japanese Kou...... Regardless of whether it is true or not, as long as it is reasonable, you can put all the blame on them, and Ying Dayou will be saved.

Thinking of this, Zhao Wenhua danced happily and was overjoyed.

He sat on the chair and thought about it carefully, Zheng Yongchang was scheming, and He Maocai was much rougher and easier to deal with in comparison.

"Then start with you!"

"Come on, bring He Maocai over, the master wants to come over."

His subordinates were busy lifting people, Zhao Wenhua washed his face with cold water, changed into official clothes, and came to the second hall, at this time someone had already brought He Maocai up.

In a short period of time, He Maocai described him as haggard, his head was as messy as straw, he held handcuffs, sat on the chair with difficulty, and said angrily: "My lord, we are old friends, and the surname He has honored you all these years, let's be people, but we must put our conscience right!" ”

"Bold!"

Zhao Wenhua slapped the table angrily and roared angrily: "He Maocai, you are already a criminal official, no matter how presumptuous you are, this official will definitely be punished." ”

Hearing the execution, He Mao shrank his neck and could only say, "Ask, ask." ”

"Hmm!"

Zhao Wenhua nodded, stood up suddenly, walked to He Maocai's side, and sighed in a low voice: "Old He, we all have a beard, and we are not young." Don't think about yourself, but also think more about your children and grandchildren. ”

He Maocai was stunned, could it be that Zhao Wenhua wanted to release the water? He snorted with a calm face, "Passing the widow is a big crime of the Nine Clans, can the family still be saved?" ”

"That's a mistake!" Zhao Wenhua suddenly smiled and said: "Lao He, this official has checked all the files, and there is no direct evidence of your collusion, even the evidence of the crime of forgiveness from the Ying family and the Wu family cannot directly prove that it is betraying information and assassinating the Duke of Wang, am I right?" ”

These days, He Maocai has been thinking about it repeatedly, what went wrong, and when he heard Zhao Wenhua say this, he seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw.

"Lord Zhao, you are Shengming!" He Maocai said excitedly: "Xiaguan has already figured it out, in fact, it was all designed by Wang Chen, that's right, he did it!" He Maocai gritted his teeth and said: "He was stunned to say that he caught the messenger, and I mistakenly thought it was Lao Zheng's, and the result was ...... Hey, now that I think about it, it was Wang Chen who deliberately lured us to take the bait, and then with our hands, we went to raid the Ying family and the Wu family, making the family kill each other, Wang Chen is really hateful! ”

is worthy of being an old criminal for many years, He Maocai has already touched the truth, but he understands it a little late. Now Wang Chen's reputation is like the sky, and the gentry and people in Zhejiang have jointly signed tens of thousands of words, and officials of all sizes have asked for credit for him. If the case is implicated in Wang Chen, it is simply not happy to find it yourself.

Of course, Zhao Wenhua couldn't tell He Maocai the truth, but praised: "Old He Gaoming, you are innocent in the case of Tongwei, but ...... You're greedy too much. ”

He Maocai swallowed hard and spat, and said, "Let the adults fall." ”

"As long as you admit that you are greedy for some silver, and you have the protection of the elders, you can only dismiss the official at most." Zhao Wenhua said with a smile, looking like he was thinking about him. (To be continued.) )
