On July 17, the thirteenth year of Wanli, the Wanli Emperor issued an order that the three divisions of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Dali Temple and the Ministry of Liberty would be interrogated and interrogated by Yao Bo, the former Imperial History of the Imperial Procuratorate. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Yao Bo was the first official in the world to propose the establishment of the emperor's eldest son as the prince, and he dared to be the first in the world, arousing hundreds of officials and Qingliu to play advice, so that Emperor Wanli did not go to court for nearly three months, and did not dare to mobilize soldiers and horses.
Until the end, Emperor Wanli secretly transferred Wang Tong back to Beijing, and used the personnel of Jinyiwei and Shuntianfu, as well as the forbidden army and his cronies in Beijing, to control the situation in one fell swoop.
On 15 July, the officials of the DPRK and China were asked to return to their respective homes, but except for Wu Zuolai and the two people, no one was punished or clothed, and the Beijing camp of the forbidden army was also ordered to be appeased, and no changes were made.
By the time the Huwei army reached the outside of the city on July 16, any movement would be suppressed by the emperor and Wang Tong, and the reckoning began.
A dissolute official, in the Metropolitan Procuratorate for nearly ten years, has never said anything amazing, all of them are in line with the general trend, why dare to speak on such a major event as the number one in the sky such as Lichu, and it is still so unscrupulous, worried, why such a person with no reputation and prestige After being dismissed, the bigwigs of the DPRK and China to the magistrates everywhere are all so jumpy.
In fact, on the day of the court meeting, everyone already knew who was the instigator behind the scenes, and in fact, without the toss at the court meeting, everyone already knew who was the instigator behind the scenes.
But knowing is knowing, and the program is the procedure, and we must use reasonable means to let everyone in the world know what is going on?
Is it for the difference between the young and the old, for the persistence of this sage avenue, or for the struggle for power and profit, or to let themselves have a higher status and greater power.
The three divisions were tried, and the celebrant sent eunuchs to observe, such a grand scene has not appeared in the Ming Dynasty for many years, and it is also a royal history to be tried, which is even rarer.
Once upon a time, the rule of innocence seems to have become a precedent for the Ming Dynasty, if you say the wrong thing and the wrong play is punished, then the latecomer will definitely cringe, will block the way of speech, let the politics be mediocre, this high-sounding way
Reason has become the truth, how many officials and Qingliu in order to make a name for themselves in the world, pretend to be shocking, wantonly slander and attack the courtiers, even against the Son of Heaven, the heaviest punishment for them is only the court staff and exile.
Although the court staff and exile are harsh, but after all, they do not hurt their lives, and even are regarded as a medal of literati, someone is just a third-rate person, once he is beaten by the court staff, he immediately becomes the world's first-class celebrity, if he returns to the township, it is the local Qingwang, if he is still in the officialdom, then wait for the step by step, the same is true of exile, as long as there is a chance to come back, it is a prestige doubled, and everyone is in the limelight.
The Son of Heaven, Quan Yun, and Quan Chen also know this truth, so they have an attitude towards the civil officials who talk nonsense, and they just treat it as a bird's call.
But this kind of attitude makes Yan Guanran even more unscrupulous, and also allows people with ulterior motives to see this means that can be used.
However, this time is different, the armor soldiers who appeared in Fengtianmen Square that day have already explained that the soldiers and horses of the Huwei army outside the city are also circumstantial evidence, and Wang Tong never knew what it meant that the speaker was innocent.
Zhao Jin, the imperial history of the left capital, complained of illness, and Wei Zhengyin, the imperial envoy of the ancient capital, also wanted to call him sick, but he was blocked by the eunuch who came to announce the decree. But I can't help but go.
It's been a commotion for so long, even the children and old ladies of Jingshi know what to argue about now, and now they have to make a settlement, and they have to be tried by the three divisions, and there are many people who want to see this excitement.
Naturally, everyone can't enter the important place of Dali Temple, but curiosity is inevitable, so the people who work in Dali Temple have taken a lot of benefits in the past few days, and let them inquire about the trial process.
It is said that the troupe in the city is the most enthusiastic, and if this case can be adapted into a drama repertoire, it will definitely be a big hit.
The process of interrogation is not so story-like, in the past, the eunuchs of the ceremonial supervisor listened to it, but they just sat on the side and did not say a word, and there were a few small eunuchs and scribes on the side to record, this time, in addition to the person who recorded, there was also the arrival of the famous messenger of the East Factory, and he did not speak, but just put all kinds of sharp tools of the East Factory on the hall.
These things are all tools for peeling skin and removing bones, and the blood stains on them have turned black, which makes it even more sinister, and the eunuch said it clearly:
"Don't play the board this time to increase this person's reputation, if you don't say it, let him taste the methods of Dongchang. This was said indifferently, but the officials who heard it couldn't help but shudder, this father-in-law said it so clearly, and expressed it so unscrupulously, it must be the meaning of the palace.
Many people think that the official who can dare to be the first in the world, of course, has a bit of style, and these people are not frightened by the edict, let alone use profit.
But Yao Bo was taken to the main hall after his performance was very unexpected, Dali Temple only began to ask, before the eunuch in the palace said about the use of profits, this Qingliu fame on the bamboo tube poured beans like all said.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the lower official is wronged, the lower official is also persecuted by others, at that time, someone used the wife and children of the lower official to coerce, saying that if the lower official does not go to this recital, the wife and children of the lower official will die, Xia An and his wife and children are not for their lives, and the feelings are deep, and they are really forced to be helpless!!"
After saying this, the main hall of the trial looked at each other, and everyone didn't expect this Yao Bo to react like this, because of this, the chief trial officials of the Criminal Department and the Metropolitan Procuratorate forgot to speak out for a while, and let Yao Bo continue to speak on his own.
"Your Majesty's family affairs, where outsiders can be allowed to intervene, the lower official is disrespectful, he has always regretted it, he is ashamed, and he wants to make a decision in the cloth, but he thinks that if the lower official can't explain the truth, wouldn't it make the saint suffer an injustice, then there is really no way to atone for his sins when he dies, and the lower official has survived to this day."
The faces of the several people who tried the case were darkened there, according to their inner thoughts, this Yao Bo naturally did not have to linger, but in the main hall of the trial, there were eunuchs in the palace staring at him, so he could only ask with a straight face:
"Yao Bo, you don't have to act like this, since you said that someone instigated and instigated, who did it!?"
"Wu Zuolai, the secretary of the Guozijian Division, gave Xiaguan a large sum of silver, and gave Xiaguan the title deed of the Grange, and in the end, he still took the lives of Xiaguan's wife and children to decide."
Hearing this, the officials who tried the case looked at each other, but no one was willing to ask, who is Wu Zuolai, the secretary of the Guozijian Division, everyone knows very well in their hearts, but does Emperor Wanli really mean that it is so wide-ranging?
"Wu Zuolai of this country is just a six-grade cold street cabinet official, he has so much silver from him, and this land deed from him, what is it to instigate you to go up and down, it is difficult for him to be a sesame official and want to profit in it."
The eunuch who had been there to listen opened his mouth, and when he heard a few words from the eunuch, several officials who tried the case immediately understood the position of the palace, their faces turned black, but they also felt chills all over their bodies, it seemed that the emperor was preparing to handle this case in a big way, and he was going to make a big deal about it.
But they are also strange, this Yao Bo dared to play this trick at the beginning, and he couldn't be bold at the beginning, why do they know everything now.
"That ......, Wu Zuo said that he meant his teacher, and this Wu Zuolai's mentor must have known to his father-in-law and several adults, that is, the secretary of the ministry, Lord Wangwei, when Wu Zuo came to threaten the lower officials, he also said that this was the Great Father
The meaning of the people, if the lower officials do not do it, they will be followed into a place of no return, the lower officials are just a small imperial history of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, how dare to fight against the prime minister of the dynasty, I really have to do it! “
"A seven-grade imperial history, to go and meet the second-grade Shangshu, it is indeed undeserved, this person is a little pitiful!"
Yao Bo said with tears in his eyes, but the eunuch here said with sympathy, everyone in the main hall of this trial is speechless, could it be that this wave of words that has been making trouble for several months is just a trap to lure the king into the urn, what else can be said.
Yao Bo did not show any backbone under the coercion of torture, and he directly confessed Wu Zuolai and the original officer.
However, these confessions were made by Zhao Pizhuo, and after the palace got the news, he didn't suspect too much, and still arranged for this Yao Bo to confess during the triage of the three divisions, in order to publicize the matter through the occasion of Yao Bo and the triage of the three divisions.
Now that Yao Bo has bitten out Wu Zuolai, as long as Wu Zuolai is arrested, the secretary of the ministry, Wei Wei, will also be questioned for his guilt and completely smeared.
At this point, Emperor Wanli and Wang Tong found that their side had underestimated the energy of the ministers, and when the Jinyi guards came to arrest Wu Zuolai, they found that he had taken poison and died.
When he found out that Wu Zuolai had been dead for a long time, his face had been blue and dead, but Wu Zuolai's family had returned to his hometown early, and he couldn't ask anything about it.
The Jinyiwei and Libu who went to check their faces reported that they were indeed poisoned, but whether they took poison themselves or were poisoned by others, this is not clear, although the signs in Wu Zuolai's house seem to be that Wu Zuolai committed suicide by taking poison, but in such a situation, the possibility of poisoning also seems to be very large.
As soon as a person dies, a hundred sons are gone, Yao Bo's climbing can only go to Wu Zuolai, as for whether it is the mastermind of Tuo Wei, Wu Zuolai has died violently, this is not clear.
After this incident, the secretary of the ministry of Shangshu Wei was self-respecting on the grounds of lax discipline, saying that he had no shame to serve as the secretary of the ministry, and asked to sue the old man to return to his hometown.
