The great monk Jingran's face was like ashes, and he sat on the ground in a dejected manner, judging from the previous detached appearance. Everyone in the hall only heard the righteous monk clasp his hands together and chanted the Buddha's name, and said with a grim face:

"Master Jingran, the sea of law is boundless, and turning back is the shore, the bad karma you have created can deceive the world, how can you hide it from the Buddha? It's come to this, why don't you leave a trace of dignity for my Buddhism? ”

Shi Kefa, who was watching the trial, found that every word of the righteous monk was like a hammer, knocking on the face of the great monk Jingran, and the fat on his rich face trembled in horror.

The discerning people present could see that it was over, otherwise how could he be so mournful?

Jing Ran's tone became steep and sharp, "The Buddha is looking at me, so he didn't look at you?" Righteousness, you, you, know ......"

Zhengxin immediately said: "I knew that the old man would be questioned by you today, and the master and nephew would have already removed the old man!" ”

These words were like a crusting heart, and he was stunned for a moment, and wanted to shake his head and deny it, but any defense was pale and weak, and he almost blurted it out just now. At this time, even Shi Kefa was despised by Jing Ran's behavior, and this kind of behavior was no different from deceiving the teacher and destroying the ancestors.

It was still the general verdict that brought the trial back on track, and it was shocking.

"Jingran Demon Monk, now that the human and material evidence is there, it is not recruited from the truth!"

Monk Jingran was still trapped and fighting, "Since Ming Gong has already had human and material evidence, why bother to ask Lao Wei again?" ”

The Ming Dynasty judged the confession of the prisoner, if there was no prisoner's confession, the case would not have been settled, so there were countless torture tricks, of course, there were many guilty people who refused to admit to death, just like the current quiet monk, not to the Yellow River heart will not die, do not hit the south wall and do not look back.

The general judge said sharply, "Under Miki, why can't you ask for it?" Great monk, do you really want to taste the torture instruments? This official tells you the truth, and you are not much better than the eighteenth layer of hell! ”

The meat on Jingran's face was still smashing the rabbit and jumping around, still refusing to admit defeat in his mouth, chanting the Buddha's name loudly.

Now everyone knows what kind of virtue this demon monk is, so they are fearless, and they are pressed to the ground, and the water and fire sticks fly up and down, crackling and crackling, and in a blink of an eye, they will beat a white-faced steamed bun-like buttocks.

quietly complained about the pain, only to realize that it was so difficult to be tortured, but how could you beg for mercy and stop when it was difficult to ride a tiger? But in the end, human flesh could not withstand the stick, and quietly endured the severe pain on his body, and confessed his "crime" 1510. Zhengxin, who was watching the punishment next to her, also interjected a few words from time to time to make up for her shortcomings.

Within a moment's effort, Lin Lin confessed to no less than dozens of crimes. Until the signed confession was confirmed, the general judgment was held in his hand and examined it, and said sarcastically to Jingran: "I knew this was the case, why didn't I do it earlier, so as to save the pain of the flesh and skin!" ”

However, he suddenly remembered that there was one thing that he hadn't asked, that is, Zhao Qian said that Jingran had seven red hair moles on his buttocks, and in fact his buttocks were smoother than white-flour steamed buns, why was this? But these words turned around several times and couldn't be asked, after all, as the chief judge, he still needs this bit of dignity.

After signing quietly, his expression withered, but his eyes suddenly showed brilliance.

"Everything is decided, and even if the old man recruits it, he can't avoid this flesh disaster. Today's ruined and disgraced know the loss of the past, and there is still a word of advice before leaving! Lao Wei watched the sky last night, the Big Dipper moved, the main faint and bright, there must be people who rebelled against the southwest of Liudu. ”

Speaking of this, Jing Ran glanced at Shi Kefa who was sitting on the sidelines and watching.

"Ministry, within ten months, you will be at risk of going to work, if you fulfill your duties, there will be fewer grudges or ...... I hope you can do it yourself. ”

Celestial phenomena are the most mysterious, and the general judgment that has always been in the hands of Zhizhu can't help but sweat in his head, is he saying that there is a vassal king who wants to rebel? How can it be? He immediately reacted again, the great monk seemed to be confessing his last words, so he drank the soap to control this person. It was too late to be afraid, and Jing Ran hit the pillar in the lobby headlong, and he was unconscious on the spot.

Zhengxin looked at Jing Ran like this, and his heart was faintly compassionate, and he didn't know what to do.

This change was not expected by the general judgment, but he immediately regained his composure, read the judgment in public, and ordered the writing office to copy it into a proclamation and post it inside and outside Nanjing to inform the common people.

Due to the bad influence, Jingran was finally sentenced to death by Ling Chi, only to report to the Nanjing Criminal Department, and after review, he was executed at a later date. And Shi Kefa knew that he had lost people in Jingran, where was he willing to stay in Nanjing for one more day, so he rushed back to the Anqing army with the pacesetter overnight, which has since been called a big joke in Nanjing.

When the people learned of this result, they made a commotion for a while, and did not want to disperse for a long time. The general judgment was full of worries, and the great monk pretended to be mysterious and vague, saying that there was a rebellion, and he did not dare to be arbitrary, so he went to report to the governor Sun Ji. Unexpectedly, the governor Sun Ji actually went to the Longtan military camp, and the general judge did not dare to delay, so he immediately rode a fast horse to Longtan to find Sun Ji.

Li Xin didn't take Shi Kefa's troublemaking to heart, but this person was unlucky enough to find a big monk covered in to make a tool, so he couldn't blame his subordinates for being ruthless. Otherwise, Li Xin, with his original good impression of this person, would not be unable to take a few steps back.

And Sun Ji came in person, but there was something else to discuss.

"I just got the news that the Francois has arrived in Hangzhou to discuss the sale of silk with Zhejiang Bosi, has the opportunity arrived?"

Sun Ji came with great ambition, and it was planted in the Zhejiang City Bosi and the Jiangnan Weaving Bureau to weave a big net, and there are not many officials who are colluding with it behind it. Originally, when Li Xin went south, he also planned to use this case to uproot Nanjing officialdom, but now his views have changed.

It is Emperor Chongzhen himself who caused today's predicament, and now he is in danger of being unloaded and killed by the donkey, all because of the thieves and thieves who are in trouble in Shandong. Rather than breaking and then standing, it is more appropriate to take advantage of the situation, as the so-called thousands of miles to be an official is only for money, as long as there are enough interests and temptations, you will not worry about putting these wild horses back on the saddle and chewing their heads.

It was also at this time that Ying Tianfu passed the verdict. After seeing Sun and Li, he said all of Jingran's words, especially his words about the displacement of Beidou, these words were in the presence of Shi Kefa, there is no way not to record them, but they can be recorded, and if you want to give an explanation to the court, you must take action. It's a big problem just how to deal with it.

Sun Ji was silent after hearing the report, but Li Xin did not believe in such astrological theories, according to his judgment, there were nothing more than two possibilities, one was to deliberately say something appalling to confuse the public because he saw that there was no hope of life. Second, maybe this person really knows some inside information, and hopes to live with it when he is about to die?

At this point, Li Xinzhong was moved, and people like to ask God and Buddha whenever there is a major event, and it is difficult to guarantee that it is not a certain big man who has inquired about it, and has been scheming by this great monk with a smart mind......

"Should Tianfu be judged?"

Li Xin's sudden questioning made the general judge at a loss, he was just panicked, and he didn't even greet the marquis of Zhenyu, his head immediately sweated, and he hurriedly made amends.

"Xiaguan Jingzhao should be sentenced by Tianfu to Zhu Yuncai."

What a rustic name, this is Li Xin's first impression, but he still has important matters ready to explain to Zhu Tongju at this time.

"You rush back to Nanjing now, send your henchmen to take care of the great monk Jingran, don't relax for a moment! Without Sun Butang's warrant, no one is allowed to approach this person! ”

Zhu Yuncai felt that Li Xin was making a big fuss, but when he saw Sun Ji nodding, he still took the order and rushed back to Nanjing non-stop. It was only after he rushed back to Nanjing that he realized that the confession of the Marquis of Zhenyu was not superfluous, because in this short period of half a day, the monk Jingran had died in prison. What the jailer said, Jing Ran was seriously injured and died, but such a coincidence, where could Zhu Yuncai believe it.

It is strange that there is no black hand behind this, but it is also from this that Zhu Yun smells a hint of opportunity. He was not born in the Jinshi Branch, and it is already the limit of being an official to achieve the Jingzhao Ying Tianfu General Judgment calmly, and if he wants to go further, he is afraid that he will not succeed unless he has great merit.

From Sun Jie's attitude, he found that this ministry actually had the intention of obeying the words of the Marquis of Zhenlu, and the Marquis of Zhenlu did not seem to be impressed by the astrological words of the great monk. He speculated in private, and the Marquis of Zhenyu thought that Jing Ran knew the inside story, so he ordered himself to take strict care of it, and now Jing Ran is mysteriously killed in prison, isn't this speculation just right?

Thinking of this, Zhu Yun smiled, smiling coldly and proudly. A moment later, he called his confidants in Ying Tianfu to thoroughly investigate who had been in the prison today, not even a fly. Things really changed, and less than half an hour after the official left, there was an anonymous letter from Soap Li that had not been sealed. opened it, and there were only eight simple words on it, "One more thing, it's better to have one less!" ”

Is this a naked threat? Could it really be possible to pull out a shocking case from this case? Zhu Yuncai pondered for a long time.

In this world, officials are also divided into three, six, nine and so on, and some people are afraid of things, hiding from things, and only seeking peace for one term as an official, and making a fortune in silence. Some people take the initiative to find trouble and cause trouble, because only by doing a good job can they have a great chance of promotion. Ying Tianfu sentenced Zhu Yuncai to belong to the latter, and if the latter goes to the extreme, he will become a cool official who is criticized by the world. He saw the bright threat of the people in the dark room of the conspiracy, and not only did not have the slightest fear, but aroused an innate competitive spirit.

Soon, the confidants rushed back to pay the errand, but the result was unexpected, and the people who entered and left the prison today were not the eunuchs in the city, or the people of transcendent status. This made Zhu Yuncai faintly disappointed. But he quickly picked up his spirits again, and he had to start with the big prison, so he must have overlooked something.
