When the Criminal Department and Dali Temple sent the confessions of those people into the palace, there was a thick stack.

And the things written on it were committed by the Bo family, and all the piles were stained with blood, among which Jing Nan and Hubu were the only ones who lost their conscience.

Emperor Ming Xuan looked at the blood-stained confessions in his hand, and his face was full of frost.

Shi He and Shao Xingfan knelt on the ground, while Shen Fengnian and Nan Yuanshan, who had not been released from prison for a short time, as well as several old ministers such as Ge Taifu.

Shi He said in a low voice: "These confessions are all confessions from the Bo family, and there are some people who are hard-boned and refuse to speak, Weichen and Master Shao are still interrogating, and the rest can be made up in half a day at the latest." ”

Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty raised his head and said coldly: "These are not all"

Shi He shook his head: "No, as far as the minister knows, there are only about half of them here." ”

Emperor Ming Xuan's face was dark, he knew that the Bo family had been old for years, and he knew that they might not be so clean, but he didn't expect that he had only confessed some of them, and the confessions of these people were already so shocking.

Without waiting for Emperor Ming Xuan to come to his senses, Shi He continued: "And"

"Your Majesty, according to Bo Xi's confession, the money that the Bo family has accumulated over the years has not been left in the mansion, in addition to being sent to the second prince's mansion every year, every other month Bo Chong will also order someone to send a large sum of silver to Zhangning."

Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty frowned: "Zhangning"

Hearing this, Nan Yuanshan stood aside and said: "Zhangning is a chaotic place in the west, close to the sea area, and there is a three-way zone, where water bandits are rampant. ”

He paused.

"Weichen remembers that when the first emperor was in power, Dachen was not as stable as it is now, and the land of Zhangning was even more chaotic."

"At that time, there were tens of thousands of water bandits in Zhangning's largest water village, and their combat power was comparable to that of a regular army, and the entire land of Zhangning was occupied by those water bandits, and the imperial court had almost no room to speak."

"Later, by chance, the people in the water village helped the first emperor to quell the rebellion, and there was a sense of repentance, so the first emperor asked the old Xuanping Hou to take people to Zhangning to recruit the people in the water village, and now the old lady of the Xuanping Hou Mansion is from Zhangning."

After Nan Yuanshan's words fell, Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty also remembered this matter violently.

When the first emperor recruited the people of Shuizhai, he was not the prince, and when those water bandits entered Beijing and were recruited into Beijing, he also went to see rare.

The first emperor conferred the title of the female leader of the water village at that time, but who would have thought that the female bandit leader would actually look at the old Xuanping Marquis.

The fact that the woman married into the Xie family with the title and became the Marquis of Xuanping shocked everyone's jaws.

At that time, the parents of the old Xuanping Marquis were still there, and Emperor Ming Xuan remembered that they had been making trouble for a long time for the addition of a daughter-in-law who was a water bandit, and the old Xuanping Marquis had become a person who everyone in the capital felt that their brains were in water.

After Emperor Ming Xuan remembered this, he frowned violently.

The Bo family sent silver to Zhangning, and the old lady of the Xie family was once the bandit leader of Zhangning, could it be that the Xie family and Xie Yuan were also related to the affairs of the Bo family

As soon as Emperor Ming Xuan's thought rose, he subconsciously pressed it down.

Wrong

If the Xie family really had something to do with the Bo family's affairs, and even colluded with the Bo family to do something on Zhangning's side, then how could Xie Yuan protect Su Ruan's mother and daughter, and even connived at Su Ruan to make trouble today's incident and send the Bo family to prison

What's more, he also knows something about Xie Yuan's temperament, if he does something like the Bo family, he will lose his conscience.

When he came back from Jingnan two years ago, he would not redress Su Xuanmin's grievances, and even intended to investigate Jingnan's affairs like Qi Wenfu.

Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty threw away the distracting thoughts in his heart, and frowned and looked at Shi He and the others: "Bo Xi has confessed that Bo Chong sent the silver to Zhangning to do something"

Shi He shook his head: "No, Bo Xi said that this matter has always been handled by Bo Chong himself." He never told anyone, not even Bo Xi knew what Bo Chong was sending the silver there for. ”

"It's just that Bo Xi confessed that in addition to sending silver to Zhangning, Bo Chong also sent a large number of weapons from the Hyogo Department and the Ministry of War during the period, and Bo Xi knew about it three times."

Emperor Ming Xuan's eyebrows jumped.

And he sent silver, and he sent weapons, and he did it so secretively.

He almost subconsciously remembered what he had said a few days ago in the Xuanzheng Palace, when Qi Wenfu asked Bo Chong where the silver had gone.

Could it be that Bo Chong is really stationing troops

What Emperor Xuan of Ming can think of, others can naturally think of too.

Such a large sum of silver, that endless supply of weapons.

If the Bo family was really stationing troops, Zhang Ning was afraid that he would have hidden a lot of people a long time ago.

The Bo Jiatun soldiers must have wanted to rebel, and what did they rebel for

Almost everyone thought of the second prince who had a great relationship with the Bo family and Bo Chong was still protecting him until his death.

Emperor Ming Xuan flipped the confession on the table, gritted his teeth and said angrily: "What a Yuwen Yan, he really dares to act against the Bo family together"

Shen Fengnian stepped forward: "Your Majesty, the matter of Zhangning is not trivial, whether the Bo family wants to rebel against the army, or for the sake of others, please ask the emperor to order a strict investigation, and the people involved in the court must not be spared." ”

Nan Yuanshan also opened his mouth and said: "What Shen Xiang said is right. ”

"Your Majesty, if the second prince really colludes with the Bo family and commits such a rebellious act, the emperor must not be merciful to him."

"The major affairs of the army are related to the survival of the country."

"If you make a mistake in the next matter, the emperor can still say that the second prince is confused for a while, but this matter must not be tolerated, please make a decision as soon as possible, and do not indulge those who are rebellious."

Emperor Xuan of Ming was already furious in his heart at this time, and after hearing the words of the two, the clouds in his eyes were even more cloudy.

He slapped the dragon case violently and said angrily:

"Check, go and check carefully for me, and no one is allowed to let go of anyone related to this matter."

He wanted to see who gave them such the courage to covet the throne and rebel

The previous dynasty was in chaos, and when Xie Yuan was urgently summoned into the palace, the eunuch turned out to be a herald, and Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty let Mrs. Xie enter the palace together.

Although Old Madam Xie was puzzled, she thought that the emperor was trying to ask about the Chen family and Su Ruan.

She and Xie Yuan had already made a draft, and when Emperor Ming Xuan opened his mouth to ask him, they answered Emperor Ming Xuan according to Qi Wenfu's instructions, but who would have thought that Emperor Ming Xuan didn't ask about the Chen family at all, but instead left Xie Yuan behind and asked directly to Mrs. Xie.

"The old lady still has contact with Zhang Ning's side"

Old Madam Xie was stunned when she heard this, and then said truthfully: "There are some." ”

"The emperor should know that I was born in Zhangning, although the first emperor Zhao'an came to the capital and married into the Xuanping Marquis Mansion, but there are old friends who still stay there."

"Although I have not been back to Zhangning over the years, I will correspond with Zhangning's old friends every year or two, and I don't know why the emperor asked me this."
