Chapter 760: The Final Blow
Jung-so didn't get out in time because he couldn't avoid the question.
If you talk about his right-hand men, in fact, Wen Xiao and Bao Wenhan, he still has room to struggle for anyone else, only these two people can't do it.
"It's obvious to all, of course Bao Duyu will not be in the same league as Zhao Duyu." Zheng Xiu could only stand still.
"Okay, then I'll prove Bao Duyu's crime first!" Lan Ting turned around, and the wat board was held upright: "Your Majesty, the minister has evidence, and he can confirm that Bao Wenhan, the left capital of the Imperial Palace, is actually a great rebel and a member of the Yan King Party when the emperor abolished it!" β
This is like a shocking revelation.
Most of the people in the hall, the only one who was not surprised was Zheng Xiu, but of course he didn't expect this psychological preparation to become a reality, when the final defeat was really imminent, even Zheng Xiu could no longer face it easily and happily, he looked at Lan Ting motionlessly, his thin lips were pursed like a blade, no longer the role of the hanger Lang who put life and death out of the way, he had already stepped down from the stage.
"Zhao Jibei, I'm waiting for you to come up with the voucher." It was Bao Wenhan who spoke, his tone and mood were equally heavy, he looked at Cheng Min and others who had knelt down in the hall, of course, he was unwilling to become one of them, he was almost fighting all his life, he witnessed the decline of the family, his father was taken to the execution ground, his mother committed suicide by hanging the beam, and his brother died in prison, only he was alive but also suffered ridicule and humiliation.
His youth, it was like being in a dim hell, when there was no one around him, only a letter sent by his former fiancΓ©e to comfort him, and a hairpin for him to sell for a while, relying on this only support, he endured the bleakest years step by step, and finally won the opportunity to make a comeback, he had no way to take revenge, he never thought of revenge, but he longed for power, because he knew that only by obtaining power, he would not be trampled on and slaughtered, Only those in the power field who have the ability to use knives can treat the weak and cowards as fish and meat.
Everything he got today was won by him stepping on the tip of the knife and fighting to the death, and whoever wanted to invade would be his mortal enemy of Bowenhan.
"Bao Gong's inner family, that is, Bao Gong's wife who remarried, is really surnamed Yuan? Bao Gong's original formula is surnamed Yuan, and he lives in Baoyang, why did Bao Gong let the successor to the original name? β
"Is this a voucher?" Bao Wenhan sneered: "Yes, Bao admitted that he did hide the name of the inner son, the reason is nothing more than that the inner son was once a concubine, and it is detrimental to the reputation of the officials to correct the side concubine, so Bao Mou asked the inner son to worship the father of the deceased wife, that is, Bao Mou's father-in-law, as the father-in-law, and act as filial piety on behalf of the deceased wife. β
"The surname of Bao Du's royal family can no longer be verified, but there was once a name known as Wan Yanshi, and the great Confucian Hao Jing once commented on the Eastern Han Dynasty Wenji, 'Wan Wan Lady, and Shi Juxtaposition', Mrs. Bao compared Cai Yan's talent, so she took this name. Wan Mianshi was the favorite concubine of the Waste Yan Palace, if Bao Duyu had not surrendered to the Waste Yan, how could the Waste Yan be willing to let Wan Yanshi give Bao Gong? Lan Ting also sneered.
Then he turned around and said: "Your Majesty, the king of the waste Yan treats Wan Mianshi differently from ordinary Ji people, and he is reluctant to let Wan Mianshi accompany the banquet to meet foreign guests, so how many waste Yan party members have heard the good name of Wan Mianshi but regret not being able to witness its celestial posture
Hearing it was already fascinating, so the fame of the Wanwan scholar of the Yan Wangfu was once spread in Beijing, which was not a secret thing. β
Emperor Hongfu's brows furrowed more and more.
Although he was walking on thin ice in Ciqing Palace back then, he had even heard of the affair between his half-brother and Wan Yanshi, and he even heard of the wife and brother of the waste Yan, because he was so friendly with the waste Yan that year, so he was fortunate to see the appearance of the Wan Yanshi, but it was a pity that he hated to meet late, and he ended up depressed in order to not be able to stay with the Wan Yanshi, so angry that the wife of the waste Yan almost did not turn against the waste Yan because of this matter!
There is a rumor that Princess Yan killed Wan Mianshi because of jealousy, and this rumor was that Emperor Hongfu felt that there were several truths, because after Wan Mianshi died of illness, Yan once wanted to divorce his wife, but later he couldn't do it under the intervention of his biological mother.
But assuming that Wan Yanshi did not die at all, but was quietly given to Bao Wenhan by Waste Yan, Waste Yan was not even willing to part with his wife and brother, but he was kind to Bao Wenhan, it is unbelievable to say that Bao Wenhan is not Waste Yan's pro-confidant.
"Wan Mianshi was originally a Yangzhou businessman raised since childhood, because of his talent and talent dedicated to the waste Yan Mu for benefits, although the merchant has long been ruined, but the Kabuki who was dedicated to the waste Yan was not Wan Yanshi alone, one of the little Feiyan is Wan Yanshi's ' Sister', not long after entering the Yan Palace, it was transferred to the party members by the abolished Yan, and then the party members were abolished Yan Lian, but Xiao Feiyan was not executed, but not for the palace prostitute, and is still alive, the minister noticed that the waste Yan had been a maiko and still had Xiao Feiyan that Liu survived, and His Royal Highness the Prince had interrogated Liu, and showed her the portrait of Mrs. Gu, Liu recognized Mrs. Gu at a glance as the graceful scholar who had been famous, if Bao Gong still wanted to deny, the minister had other evidence. β
Lan Ting didn't give Bao Wenhan a chance to quibble at all, and took out a book from his arms: "This is the invitation that Mrs. Gu gave to Neizi that day, from Mrs. Gu's handwriting, and when the Yan Wangfu was copied, the waste Yan still has a lot of poems written by Wan Yanshi, and the emperor can read the old files to collect evidence, and compare it with Mrs. Gu's handwriting!" β
The manuscript was immediately presented to Emperor Hongfu by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince himself.
Waste Yan because of the failure of the rebellion, has long been dead, this old case has also been dusted, but the various documentary evidence copied has not been destroyed, as a certificate for the revision of the history of the country, to talk about the pen of Wan Yanshi is actually not related to the case itself, there is no need to seal, but the Empress Dowager Shengde has always liked poetry, and she also saw that Wan Yanshi's literary talent and even calligraphy are indeed good, and she also sighed that such a talented woman was ill-fated and famous.
Emperor Hongfu is a filial son, so he simply stored Wan's poems in the inner court, and it is naturally not difficult to compare.
"Bao Wenhan, do you need me to summon your inner relatives and confront the Liu family on the spot, but do you need me to order the file to be archived and then do a handwriting examination?" Emperor Hongfu slapped the bookpost in his hand on the imperial case.
"Minister, I don't know where Ichiko came from......"
"Do you mean that Waste Yan deliberately married you back then, and deliberately gave away her favorite concubine?" Emperor Hongfu was furious: "Then how can you explain that Waste Yan did not accuse you before he died, and none of the so many party members of Waste Yan accused you of being their accomplice!" β
Bao Wenhan's expression was already discouraged, and he hung his head and didn't dare to say a word.
"Don't, you keep talking!" Emperor Hongfu held his forehead, and his tiredness and frustration were revealed.
Although Lan Ting understood Emperor Hongfu's feelings of betrayal and blows again, of course he had to take advantage of the victory to pursue: "Bao Gong was like that
This is valued by the abolished Yan, and it must be a backbone member who rebelled against the abolished Yan, and the reason why I suspect Bao Gong is that the cause should be the murder of his grandfather and uncle in Xiayue! According to my speculation, Bao Gong offered a plan to the waste Yan back then, in order to take advantage of the loopholes in mining supervision to secretly intercept iron ore and accumulate troops to rebel! Bao Gong took advantage of his position to let this conspiracy be concealed from the world, but how did he know that in the year of Xiayue's grandfather, he suddenly proposed to improve the supervision of mines, if this proposal was implemented, it would not only frustrate the conspiracy to abolish Yan, but even find out the evidence of the crime of abolishing Yan! Therefore, Bao Gong colluded with the party members to oppose the reform of the mine supervisor, and it happened that natural disasters occurred in Jin, Shuo and other places, so Bao Gong simply asked the first emperor to let the loyal ministers who proposed the reform take the blame to calm the people's hearts.
However, when Bao Gong was in the past, before the earth movement occurred, he saw that his ancestor in Xia Yue refused to back down, and he must have been very anxious, so he turned to the children of the old friendly family, that is, Pan Cungu persuaded Yue Ancestor to compromise, although Pan Cungu agreed to Bao Gong, but he was unable to persuade his classmates and friends, and because he was grateful for Bao Gong's kindness, he never confided that he was entrusted by Bao Gong. β
"Who is Pan Cungu?" Emperor Hongfu asked.
Xu Jin hurriedly got up and added: "When he was the first emperor, it was precisely because of Bao Wenhan's recommendation that Pan Cungu was directly promoted from the post of Guangxin Tongzhi to the head of the household department, but the minister remembered that not long after Li Mingyu was convicted and demoted to Tielingwei, Pan Cungu also asked for a letter. β
"Duke Bao acted cautiously, and he was bound to remind the abolition of Yan not to expose that he had surrendered, and the crime of the abolition of Yan was exposed, and the first emperor ordered the execution of the abolition of Yan without a thorough investigation, and the person who presided over the trial of the abolition of Yan was Jin Hengda, the former governor of Dongchang, Jin Hengda's niece Jin, is not one of the concubines of Wei Guogong." Lan Ting paced in front of Zheng Xiu: "Back then, the abolished Yan may not have confessed to Bao Wenhan's party, but Jin Hengda did not list Bao Wenhan as a remnant and report to the first emperor, it should be the instruction of Wei Guogong, thinking that Bao Wenhan still has something to use, and Wei Guogong was indeed ambitious at that time." β
Zheng Xiu did not respond this time.
Lan Ting continued: "Since Bao Wenhan has not been exposed, and one of his party members has not been implicated, since Wei Guogong can coerce and induce Bao Wenhan to surrender, he can easily obtain a chain of embezzling iron ore and making tools, but Wei Guogong is scheming, in order to avoid risks, he shared this chain of interests with the Linzi Wang Party, thinking that in case it is exposed, there will be the Linzi Wang Party as a shield. But sharing this chain with others must be broadened, otherwise what is the benefit to Wei Guogong?
When I was in Fenyang, I investigated a murder case of the Wang family, the case seemed to be a dispute between the wives and concubines of the merchants, but the murderer was a well-trained dead soldier, I noticed that there was a larger conspiracy hidden behind this seemingly ordinary murder, and nine times out of ten it was related to mining affairs, since then, I have not given up the secret investigation, which of course will also touch the vigilance of Wei Guogong.
So when I accompanied His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to Jiangnan to supervise the government, Zhang Guoyu was suddenly exposed, but the clue pointed to the King of Linzi, which was Wei Guogong's intention to attract my attention, no longer investigate, and even suspected Bao Wenhan, but Wei Guogong followed closely and found that it had little effect, because I had allowed several relatives of my grandfather to go to Fenyang, and tried to let Pan Cungu tell the truth, so that Bao Wenhan's crime was very likely to be exposed.
Before the three relatives arrived in Fenyang, they were robbed and killed, which was of course at the behest of Wei Guogong! β
Lan Ting didn't waste any more lips and tongues.
Out of the corner of his eye, he found that Emperor Hongfu's complexion had rapidly turned to ashes, and it was clear at a glance whether he was strong or not.
Emperor Hongfu has already believed his various statements, so at this time, it is really not appropriate to press too hard.
